View of the Hard
'What has become of the Wight
uians?' asked my old friend Pay son.
I had returned to my native place af
ter an absence of several years. Pay
son looked grave.
'Nothing wrong- with them, I h#pe
Wi.ghtmt.ui was a clever man, and he
had a pleasant family.*
My friend shook his head ominously.
"He was doing very well when left,"
said X.
'•All broken up now,' was. answered.
•He failed several years ago,:
Ah! I'm sorry to hear tins. What
has become of him?'
see him now aod then, but I don't
know what he is doing.'
•And las family?'
•They live somewhere in Old Towu.
I haven't met any of them for a long
time. Some .one told roe that they
were very poor.
This intelligence caused a feeling of
sadness to pervade my mind. The tone
and maim .-ir of Payson as used he the
words 'very poor'' gave to them a more
than ordinary meaning. I
SSAV,
ia my
imagination, my old friend reduced,
from comfort and respectability to a
condition of extreme poverty, with all
its sufferings and humiliations. While
my tuindjwas occupied with these un
pleasant thoughts, my friend said:
You must dine with me to-morrow.
Mrs. Payson will be glad to see yon, and
I want to have a long talk about old
times. Ws dine at three.5
I promised to be with them, in a ree
ment with the invitation, and then we
parted. It was during business hours,
fusd as my friend's manner waw some
what occupied and hurried, I did not
think it right to trespass on his time.
What I had learned of the Wightmans
troubled my thoughts. I could not get'
them out of my ramd. They were esti
mable people, I hud prized them above
ordinary acquaintances, and it did
seem peculiarly hard that they should
have suffered misfortune. 'Very poor'
—1. could cot get the words out of my
ears. The way in which they were
spoken involved more than the words
themselves expressed, or rather gave a
broad latitude to their meaning.'
'Very poor! Ah mei' The sigh was
deep and involuntary.
I inquired of several old acquaint
ances whom I met during the dav for
Wightmans, but all the satisfaction I
eeived was, Wightman had failed in
business several years before and was
now living somewhere in Old Town in
a very poor way. 'They are miserly
poor,' said on'I see Wightman occa
sionally,' said auother— 'lie looks seedy
enough.' 'His girls take in sewing, I
have heard.'said a third, who spoke
with a slight air of contempt, as if
there was something disgraceful at
tached to needle work when pursued
as a means of livelihood. I would have
called during the day upon Wightman
but failed to ascertain his. place of resi
dence.
•Glad to s^e your Payson extended
his hand with a show oe cordiality as I
entered his store between two and three
o'clock on the next day.

Sit down and
look over the papers for a little while,'
he added. Til fce with you in a mom
ent- Just finishing up my bank busi
ness.'-
Business first,' was my answer, as I
took the proffered newspaper. 'Stand
upon ho ceremony with me'.'
As Payson turned parti* from me and
bent his he&d to the desk at which tie
was sitting, I cvald not but remark tbe
suddenness with which the smile my
-'psearajice had awakened faded from
lVc4wpt^iance. Before'him lWy a:p|Je

I. hate the work! But come they'll be
waiting
dinner for us. Mrs. Payson is
delighted at the tbougtof seeing you.
How long is it since you were here?
About ten years, if I am not mistaken.
You'll find my daughters quite grown
up. Clara is in her twentieth year,
You, of course recoliet her only as a
little school-girl. Ah mei how time
does fly!'
I found my friend living in a hand
some house in Franklin street. It was
showily—not tastefully—furnished, and
the same might be said of his wife and
daughters, When I last dined with
them it was many years before—they
wer« living iu a modest but very com
fortable way, and the whole air of their
dwelling was that of cheerfulness and
comfort. Now, though their ample
parlors were gay with rich brussels,
crimson damask, and brobatelle, there
was no genuine home leeling there.
Mrs. Payson, the last time I saw hei,
wore a mousseline oe laiue, ot sub
dued colors, a neat lace collar around
her neck, fastened with a diamond pin
the marriage gift of her father. Her
hair, which curled naturally, was drawn
behind her ears in a few gracefully fall
ing ringlets. She needed no other or
nament. Anything beyond would have
taken from the chiefest of tier attrac
tions, her bright, animated counten
ance, in which her friends ever read a
hearty welcome.
How changed from this was the ather
"stately woman, whose real pleasure at
seeing an old friend was hardly warm
enough to melt through the ice cf an
imposec1 formality, flow changed from
this the pale, cold, worn face, where
selfishness and a false pride had been
doing a sad, sad work. Ah! the rich
Honiton lace cap aud costly cape the
profusion of gay ribbons and the glitter
of jewelry the ample folds of glossy
satin how poor a compensation were
•hey 3i the true woman I bad parted
with years ago, and now sought beneath
these showy adornments in vain!
Two grown up daughters, dressed al
most as flauntiugly as their mother,
were now presented. In the artificial
countenance of the oldest, I failed to
as the dinner had been waiting us, and
was now served, we proceedeed to the
dining room. did not feel honored by
the really sumptuous meal the Paysons
had provided for their old friend, be
cause it was clearly to be seen that uo
honor was intended. The honor was
ail foi themselves. The ladies had not
adoroed their person nor provided their
dinner to give me welcome and pleas
ure, but to exhibit to the eye of their
guest their wealth, luxury and social
importance. If I bad failed to perceive
this, the conversation of the Paysons
would have made it plain, for it was of
stvle and elegance iu housekeeping and
dress—of the ornamental in all its va
rieties 'and in no case of the truly do
mestic and useful. Once or twice I re
ferred 10 the-Wightmans, but the ladies
knew nothing of them, and seemed al
most to have forgotten .that such per
sons ever lived.
It did not take me long to discover
that, with ali the luxury by which my1
iriends were surrounded, they were far
from being happy. Mrs. Payson and
her daughters had I could see, become
envious as well as proud. They wanted
a larger house and more costly furni
ture in order to make as imposing an
appearance as
some others whom they
did not consider half as good as them
selves. To all they said ou this subject,
I noticed that Payson himself main
tained, for the most part, a half moody
silence. It was clearly enough, un
pleasant to him.
'My wife and daughters think I'm
made of money.' said onc», half
laughing.'
vBnt
and then looked anxiously to-1 the meaning of the term,' said
wardc the door- At this moment a} Payson,,^ with some teelmg.
clerk entered hastilv, and made
some)'And
K-io to Wilson,' said he, hurriedly,'
'and tell him to send' me a check for
live hundred without fail. Say that I
am so short in my bank payments and
that it is now to late to get the money
anywhere else. Don't linger a moment
it is twenty -five minutes to three now.'
The clerk departed. He was gone
full ten minutes, during which period
Payson remained at. his desk, silent,
but showing many signs of uneasiness.
On returning he brought the desired
,j check, and was then dispatched to lift
the notes for which this late provision
was made.
'What a life for a man to lead,' said
my friend with a contracted brow and
a sober face. 'I sometimes wish my
self on an island in mid-ocean. You
remember
'Very well.'
'He quit business a year ago and
bought a farm. 1 saw him the other
day. 'Payson'said he, with an air of
satisfaction, 'I haven't seen a bank
notictj this twelve months.' He's a
happy man! This note-paying is the
curse of my life. I'm forever on the
s'reel financiering— financiering! How

would be less free in spending. I tell

he who lives beyond his income,
in an undertone, which as a good many of our acquaintances
brought from my friend a disappointed I do to my certain "knowledge, is poorer
and impatient evpression.
'Now, dou't get to riding that hobby,
Mr, Payson,' broke in my friend's wife,
deprecatmgly, 'don'tif you please, In
the first place, it's hardly polite, and in
the second place, it is by no means
agreeable. Don't mind him'—and the
lady turning to rue gayly—'he gets in
these moods sometimes.'
I was not in the least surprised to hear
this after what 1 had witnessed, both
in Ms store and in his house. Put the
two scenes and circumstances together,
and how could it well be otherwise.
My friend thus reacted upon, ven
tured no further remark upon a sub
ject that was 30 disagreeable to his
family. But while they talked of style
aud fashion, he sat silent, and, to my
mind, oppressed with no very pleasant
thoughts. After the ladies had retired,
he said with considerable feeling
'All this looks and sounds very well,
perhaps, but there are two aspects to
almost everything. My wife and
daughter.! get one view of life aud I
auother. They see the romance and I
the hard reality. It is impossible for
me to get money as fast to they wish to
spend it. It was my fault in the be
gining, suppose. Ah! how difficult it
is to correct an error when once made,
I tell them that I am a poor man, but
they smile in my face, and ask me for
a hundred dollars to shop with in the
next breath. I remonstrate, but it
avails not,, for they don't credit what I
say.
'And I am poor—poorer, I sometimes
think, than the humblest of my clerks,
who manages, out of his salary of four
hundred a year, to lay up fifty dollars
He is never in want of a dollar, while I
go searching about, anxious and
troubled for my thousands daily. He
and his patient, cheerful, industrious
little wife find peace and contentment
in the single room their limited means
enables them to procure, while my
family turn dissatisfied from the costly
adornments of our swacious home, and
sigh for richer furniture, and a larger
and more snowy mansion. If I were a
millionaire, their ambition might be
satisfied. Now, their ample wishes
may not be filled. I must deny them
or meet inevitable ruin. As it is, am
living far beyond a prudent lipit—not
half so far, however, as many around
me, whose fatal example is ever tempt
ing the weak ambition of their neigh
bor,'!.'
This, and much more of similar im
port, was said by Payson. When I
turned from his elegant home there was
no envy in my heart. He was called a
rich and prosperous man by all whom I
heard speak of him, but in my eyes he
was very poor.
A day or two afterwards 1 saw
Wightman in the street. He was so
changed in appearance that I should
hardly have known him had he not first
spoken. He looked, my eyes, twenty
years older than when last we met. His
clothes were poor, though scrupulously
clean, and on observing him more
closely I perceived an air of neatness
and order that indicates nothing of
that disregard about external appear
ance which so often accompanies
poverty.
He grasped my hand, cordially, and
inquired with a genuine interest after
my health and welfare. I answered
A slight shadow Bitted over his coun
tenance, but it quickly grew cheerful
again.
'•One of the secrets of happiness in
this life," said he, "is contentment
with our lot. We raiely learn this in
prosperity. It is uot one of the lessons
taught in that school,''
'And you have learned it?" said
lI
have been trying to learn it,' he
answered, smiling. 'But. I find it one
of the most difficult of lessons. I do
not hope to acquire it perfectly.'1
A cordial invitation to visit his
family and take tea with them fol
lowed, aud was accepted. I must own
that I prepared to go to the Wightmans
with some misgivings as to the oleas
nre I should receive, Almost every
one of their old acquaintances to whom
I had addressed inquiries on the sub
ject, spoke of them with commissera
tion as "very poor,'- If Wightman
could bear tbe change of philosophy, I
hardly expected to find the same Chris
tian resignation in his wife, whom I
remembered as a gay, lively woman,
fond of social pleasures.
Such were my thoughts when 1
knocked at the door of a small house
thai stood a little back from the street.
It was quickly opened by a tail, neatly
dressed girl, whose pleasant face was
lighted into a so-ile of welcome as she
pronounced my name.
'This is not Mary?' I sVrid, as I took
her proffered hand.
\Yes, this is your little Mary," she
answered. 'Father told me you were
coming'
Mrs. Wightman came forward as I
entered tbe roam into which the front
door opened, and gave me a most onr
dial welcome. Least of all had time
and reverses changed her Though a
little subdued and rather paler and
thinner, her face had the old heart
warmth 'in it—the eyes were bright
fypn the same cheerful spirit.!^/.
a
'How» trladfil m, to see ^youj again f*.
glad. Every play ot feature, every
modulation of tone showed this. -.A
Soon her husband came m. and then
she excused herselfwith a smile, and
went, as I very well understood, to see
after tea. In a little while supper was
ready and I sat down with the family
in their small breakfast-room to one of
the pleasuntest meals I have ever en
joyed. A second daughter, who was
learning a trade, came in just as we
were taking our places at the table,
and was introduced. What a beauti
ful glow upon her young countenance.
She was the very image of health and
cheerfulness.
When I met Wightman in the street
I thought his countenance wore some
thing of a troubled aspect—this was the
first impression it made upon me. Nowf
as I looked into his face and listened to
his cheerful animated conversation, so
full of life's true philosophy, I could
but see an emotion of wonder. 'Very
poor!' How little did old friends, who
covered their neglect of this family
with these commisserating words
know of their state. How little did
they dream that sweet., peace folded its
winys in that humble dwelling nightly,
aid t'.at morning brougnt to each a
cheerful, resolute spirit which bore
them bravely through ali their daily
toil.
'How are you getting along, now,
Wightman?' I asked, as, after bidding
good evening to his pleasant family, I
stood with him at the care opening
from the street to his modest dwelling.
'Very well,' was his cheerful reply.
'•It was up hill work for several years,
when I received five hundred dollars
salary as clerk, and all my children
were young. But now two of tbem
are earning something, and I receive
eight hundred dollars instead of five
We managed to save enough to buy
this snug little house. The last pay
ment was made a month since. I am
beginning to feel rich."
And he laughed a pleasant laugh.
"Very poor," I said to myself, mus
ingly, as I walked away from the hum
ble abode of the Wightmans. "Very
poor The words have had a wrong
application.5'
On the next day I met Payson.
"I spent last evening with the Wight
mans." said I.
"Indeed! How did von find themV
Very poor, of courseV"
:I have not met a more cheerful
family for years. No, Mr. Payson.
they are not *very poor,' for they take
what the great Father send*, and use it
with thankfulness! Those who ever
wan* more than they possess are the
very poor. But such are not the Wight
mans."
Payson looked at me a moment or
two curiously, and then let his eyes fall
to the ground. A little while he
mused. Light was breaking in upon
him.
"Contented and thankful," said he
lifting his eyes from the ground.
"Ah! my friend, if I and mine were
only contented and thankful."
"You have cause to be," I remarked.
"The great Father hath covered your
table with blessings."
"Aral yet we ar« poor—very poor,"
said lie, "fur we sire neither contented
nor thankful. Wea.sk for more than
we possess, and cause it is not given
we. are fretful aud impatient. Yes,
yes—we, not the Wightmans, are puor
—very poor."
Aud with these words on his lips, my
old friend turned from me and walked
slowly away, his head bent, in musing
attitude to ttye ground. Sot long after-
wards E hear^ that he had failed.
"Ah!" thought [, when this news
reached me, "now you are poor, very
poor, indeed!1' And it was so.
