reason, -j Vuit said last year, that luck
would change, and kept eitvin jr, ' Pon't
'et discouraged.' It' it hadn't been for
you, I'd h ive quit last fall, and gone back
to old Oneida."
uAnd what would you have done
there'"
" Done a darned sight better than I'll
ever do here, in this heathen country,"
was the pettish ami almost profane reply
of tho young farmer, who had sought a
home fur himself and wife on tho prairies
of Illinois in the year ci-Ltccn hundred
and .
Carrie was hurt. A tear sprung to her
eye and a quicker throb to her heart; but
she knew his mood might bo changed,
and she knew too, that were sho to speak
one desponding word, ho would give up
utterly, and insist upon returning again
to the old haunts of his childhood, where
his situation would only be that of a com
mon laborer. So hhe choked the rising
emotion, atid again answered with a tone
of cheerful encouragement and mild re
proof "Oh, don't speak fo, George. I know
we have not been very successful, but
then we arc settling in a new county, and
beginning a new life. Wo must struggle
on and not give up. After a few years,
our locusts; will break the wind, and tho
loss of one planting of corn or wheat, I
hope will not prostrate us as now."
u I5ut how am I ever to get where I
can help myrclf ;corn fpoiled, wheat
blighted, and tho cow lost in the prairies;
the wolves have killed my sheep, and now
my best ox must die. You may talk of
blessings, but I don't, and I'm determin
ed to sell out my claim to tho first man
that will take it, and quit the country."
"Is not this a Mossing?" fdie asked,
hying a crowing baby hoy, tho very im
cpe of hitt father, into his arm?.
Tht f.itbor rtr.ill faintly; hi hurt.
was really sad. Tho hardships, trials and
deprivations of a new country were more
than he could patiently bear; but with
his faint smile, came a low aeknowl
ment 44 Yes, Carrie, Dick is a blessing."
il And is not Carrie a blessing?" sho
added, as she left the warm kiss of aflee
tion upon his gloomy brow.
4 Aye, and Carrie is a blessing," was
his response in a lightened tone.
' And is not good healtlc'a blessing?"
u Ye.j, I suppose to," said he, almost
laughirtg.'
"And is not this soft, cool air, this mel
low moonlight, and the star spangled hea
vens, a bleisi ng?"
" Of course."
44 Sec our beautiful garden ; how softly
it sleeps in tho moonlight. Did you not
toll mo to-day, that you never saw such
beets and cabbage, such onions and squash
es? ami shall wo not have potatoes for
ourselves and our neighbors, if wo should
only bo so blessed as to have any?"
Why, Carrie," said he, Liking tho
soft hand in his, that was putting back the
hair, soothingly, from his forehead, 44 one
would think wo had had nothing but blessing-:,
to hear you tell tho story."
44 And I am not done yet; I think I
have a ble.-sed little homo hero in this
clean, sweet, pleasant cabin, and the bles
cdest good, kind husband in this pleasant
world, if he would not get the blues, and
threaten ta h ave this beautiful land, and
g back to New York, every time tho
winds bluw tho wrong way. Aye, George,
'Don't get discouraged ;' all will yet go
well, and wo shall bless tho day that wo
stuck our stakis on the prairi"."
" Will. I .sup;vv; 1 shall have to stay,
whether it h be t or md, Ydi are so deter
mined to be hlcvi d with everything; but
women folks don't have to .-u!hr as i:oi
do."
Carrie smiled to her-elf, as sho took her
babo again upon her breast, and remem
bered the hours of toil and trial thro'
which the had pae 1. of the night of
wearisome watching and care, of the da
of ceasehs exertions, often when searcely
able to he ir tho fatigue. Hut she did not
feel to murmur. There was to h r a joy
in duty, in beinir tru and earue.-t, in
.v .r Jv i :. out o:i"'s own dotiny. That
made all tho hours and days Worth living,
tho' th -rc vrri'siiero aiul il;cre, a. :-h loah
o 1 over tlio past, d irk shadows flitting to
and fro, like tho cloud shades over tho bil
lowy prairies, while the sun gilded all
the rest with brightness.
Long and earnestly they sat and chat
tad nt their cabin do and h- r L"nth'
word-; and kindly enoourn'. ?.;-nts lifted up
his h-avt, and li - rose i,n tie' morrow, and
went forth to his work with a reii -wed
resolution Jo j-truggle arid to conquer.
Let us skip over a f-ooro ot years. Jht
you see that line flourishing village, with
a ra.ilr-.ad track coursing thro' its very cen
tre? Do you see those lino brick school
houses, with their belfries and clear found
ing bells, calling tog ther tho hundreds
ot children, to teach them of tho myste
ries of science and put into their hands
that weapon of deftmv and power for the
future a good common school e im-ation?
Do you see yon imposing building in the
distance, with its m.asio walls and towvr
ing root ? That is a college. Mark thoe
church spires, that point heavenward ;
listen to the busy hum ()f machinery, the
mill and tho factory, tho bustle of trade.
Have you taken it all in ?
Now look again. See you that matron
ly woman, upon whoo brow forty sum
mers have searcely kit a footprint ? Tho
glossy hair shows no mingling of silver?
tho ro-c has not faded from the cheek, tho'
its budding brightness has expanded into
full bloom, and tho red at the heart is not
quite so deep; tho voice H till soft, and
tho laugh silvery and cheerful.
"Don't get discouraged, George; all
will yet come out right."
44 I have not heard any thing else but
'Don't get dhconragiil, George,' these
tv-oMfy years. Carrie; 1 am tired of it.
dut think what a lix i am in no., ufi
all my struggling."
" It is very, very unpleasant to be sure,
but don't you remember how often when
we lived in tho cabin here on this very spot
on tho lone prairie you ued to say just so
and threaten to leave and go back to tho
old haunts ?"
44 What if the company should fail;
shall we bo bankrupt? Shall wo com
plain if out of our abundance, in such
a time of trial as this wc lose with
others?"
44 Yes, but," and George, the influen
tial proprietor of the town, the judge of
the country, the owner and indwt Her of
that beautiful mansion, who held in pos
session half tho surrounding landscape,
the rich railroad man, and bank director,
stopped short, as if ho did not knew what
to say next.
14 JJut what, George?" asked his pleas
ant wife laying her hand agaiu upon hid
brow.
44 1 don't want vou to say. ' Don't cet
courage.
"Then don't give mo orcassion, my
my dear. I pledge you I will not. Put
really 1 don't know why you should m
much dislike the phrase for'out of it ban
grow much of tl.o micccm of your
lite."
"And that is the very rc?.on Carrie.
A man, when ho gets tho blues don't love
to bo reu.ainded of his own weakness
Put, really, Carrie, I will own up.
That Impel ul heart of yours has kept me
up thro' a thousand misfortunes when
1 should have sunk down in despair and
let tho waves roll over me. I felt thi.i
morning about as gloomy as 1 did when
we traveled hero on tho prairie with one
yoke of oxen, a cow and our household I

44 And, lie looked up with a laugh of
half shame when they located the rail

44 Oh George, George! one would think
Vou would never have the blues again ; for

The storm cloud had passed over and
th1 earnest cnergui" man, full of power
and force gathered up his strength and
went firth to his business, and righted up
in a lew d?s what ho had in his
moments, of despondency s"t down as an
utterly ruined concern.
There is many a man sinks down in
helpless despondency, for the want of a
pleasant word and cheering look; many
an one in a time of powerful pressure and
misfortune by cold words of reproach and
murmuring has been driven from tho
path of duty and honesty to crime, insani
ty, and even suicide ; many an one too
by recklessness and wild speculation, by
spurning all counsel and help from her
who is compelled to bo a sullercr in all
his mistakes, has worn out a faithful and
chcertul heart and brought upon himsell
tho. torture of a wa'ling and tried spirit
that goaded him thro' all his future years

hoops Hap, winds and reefs round it in
every wind that blows. Not much im
provement is the ::ddition of one or two
other hoops unless they are graduated in
size according to the height of tho wearer
and covered by skirt of suilieient thick
ness to hide the skeleton, than which
nothing could bo more hideous, unless it
was a veritable -skeleton from the grave
yard. 44 The only skirt that looks uniformly
graceful is that made of a series of rattan,
whalebone or. brass hoops, extending from
the waste to the feet, gradually incrraing
in sho with that graceful swell that gives

good taste will ever dictate. The hoops
in tlii-. skirt should be s:o near together
that they will lose their inIi vitality and
4 make no sign underneath the thinnest
summer dress ; for herein lies the advan
tage ana whole philosophy of the hoop
movement, inasmuch as it allows one skirt
to give that fulness and grace which has
hitherto been attainable only by half n
doen.
After all trie genuine crinoiine is the
the thing, which, as its name imports h a
kind of hair cloth, which by its own in
nate virtue, without the aid of hoop"-, will
preserve its elasticity and in. 'kited charac
ter, without the awkwardness that at
times is inseparable from its humble imi
tator. Tho expense is the only objection
to it general adoption, which for tho

A Leo All Ditiskjn. The son of a
wealthy .lew banker in London became
much attached to a young Christian, with
whom his father opposed bis union.
When tho sou found tho father could not
ho induced to 'jive his coa:'eiit to the
match, ho concluded to marry without it.
Th.: father then threatened to withhold
every shilling from him, whereupon the
son replied that if the father did ml in
tend to give him anything, ho would be
come a Christian, and according to the
law he would bo entitled to one-half of his
father's fortune. The father, much alarm
ed, flew to his lawyer, to inquire whether
such a law wa really in existence. The
lawyer's answer was in the allirmativc, but
adding that if Io wi nM hand him over ten
guineas' he Would give him n plan by
which he could frustrate his souks plan.
Tho ten guineas were quickly produced.
'Now," said thelavyer, quietly pjekct
ing the money, 44 all that remaius for you
to do, is to become a Christian also, and
tho law will not oblige you to leave your
son a oo nt of your money." The Jew
hurriedly seivd his hat, and left tho law
yer without any further remarks.
WHAT is it? A western pettifogger i
c-dce broke lorth in the following indig
nant strain :
" Sir we're enough for ye, the hull of
ye. Me and my client can't never be
intimidated nor tyranizid over; mark
that ! And, sir, just so sure as this court
decides against u, we'll fde ar writ of
progaf.dor, sir and wc "
Uere he was iut erupted by the opposite
Cftinsel, w.o wanted r kirv what he

the door of a room where her good-natured
liege lord was about to inuulgo in a
comfortable snooze.
