    the fall had aroused her, The mourners,

    house, she showed no symptoms of again

    squire followed his wife to her last home;
    but he was determined no accident should
    happeow this time, for when the bearers of
    the eoflin approached the old stump, he
    ran forward and whispered to them,
    “Careful, my friends, be careful; this
    way—a leetle more to the right. There—
    God be praised, we've cleared the stump !”

    That time Squire Meadows went home-
    ward with an expression of pious resi
    tion on his faee that was really delightful
    to contempl Bat he was not left quite
    done. ‘There remained to hin a fine little
    boy, now some twelve months old, not at

    What the Young Man asked of his Lather,

    BY JOUN ROSS DIX.

    “Squire Meadows, your wile’s dead |"

    Such was the abrupt manner in which
    the tidings of the decease of that worthy
    gentleman’s partner was conveyed to him,
    one fine morning as he was busy, thresh-
    ing in the barn, some litte distance trom
    the farmhouse. — Tle looked earnestly into
    the face of the messenger fora moment,
    as if to read the confirmation of the
    trath of his report, and apparently satisfied
    with the serutiny, quietly went on with
    his (hreshing, and said toa manservant:

    “Joe, go down to Jack Slowman’s, the
    carpente and tell him to come nnd

    had determined that the
    on should come toan end
    when he had reached his twenty-first year,
    for by that time, he thought, the hey-day
    of youth would be past. and sueh bachelor
    habits be formed as would eifectnally pr
    vent him froin committing his happiness
    to the keeping of any. fema wovel’
    attractiy might be. Silly Squire
    Meadow Ife little thought what an in-
    flummable thing a young ma i
    he forgot, in fact, that he his
    young once,

    In due course of time the
    turned to his native land. Iaving visited
    his son, and found him all he desired, he
    di ed the tutors, and resolved to test
    Mar experiment he had mide by
    is son his liberty, and taking him
    into the great world from which
    he had been so long shut out, or rather
    in,

    Just about this time an annual fai
    to be held in the country town—and eoun-
    try fairs in those days were very different
    from what they now are. Ve
    all sorts of rural games that are

    she

    s a happy release.” observed all the
    mule population of Dennyville, when they
    heard the news of Mr Jeadows’ decease.
    They meant—though they did not say as
    much—a happy release for the squire, and
    some of them even envied him the loss he
    had gained,

    Now Mrs. Meadows had been one of the
    voriest viragos and shrews with which any
    poor man had ever been cursed. Ter
    husband had long since ceased to consider
    his soul his own, but without @rumi
    submitted to all her capriÂąe and ill-temp:
    When they were first married they quar-
    relled terribly, but the wife always con-
    trived to have the last word. On one
    oceasion, Ma. Meadows made a desperate
    effort to come off victorious, and” actually
    told his spouse that if’ she uttered another
    “crooked word.” sho should repent it,

    Well, then,” screamed the inveterate
    vixen, ‘* ram's horns, you dog, if I die for
    it]!

    That was the last effort at being master
    in his own house which was ever made by
    Squire Meadows, Always after which he
    submitted tamely to her will inall matters,
    and was a mere eypher in his own domes-
    tie circle. Âź

    The day of the funeral eame—the day
    alter death; but people did not wonder
    inuch at the squire’s evident desire to ge:
    his Inte spouse out of sight as soon as
    possible. Some old folks, indeed, grum-
    bled, because they said as Mrs, Meadows
    had died suddenly while in a paroxysm of
    rage, she ought to be kept longer to make
    sure that she was dead, But atthe time
    appointed ‘the cefin was put into the
    hearse, and avngiynoved the funeral pro-
    cession.

    When the cofin was taken from the
    vehicle and placed upon the shoulders of
    some men to be curried into the burying-
    ground, the procession moved slowly to-
    wardsthe grave, Just before they reached
    it, one of the bearers stumbled over the
    stump of an old treo, and fell. The coffin
    in consequence was thrown violently to
    the ground and burst open. What was
    the forrer and astonishment of the lookers
    on to observe the supposed corpse to open
    and Mrs, Meadows herself to sit up, ap-

    sements afforded, much business
    acted,

    To the fair, Squire Meadows, now a
    gray-haired man, determined to take his
    son; andl many were the curions glances

    village green. ‘This spot was covered
    ith booths, in which gingerbread, toys,
    ribbons and finery, and ecatables of all
    sorts were offered tor sale. Then there
    were shows, in front of wh were {
    staring, exaggerated pictures of the vi
    ous wound to be seen therein, such as
    giants, giantess diyarfs, albinos, wild
    beasts, serpents, There
    were travel their
    merry-andrew’s, havlequir pantaloons
    and columbines, and shows in which
    learned pigs displayed the profoundity of

    hoppers grinned) through collars,
    eliciling from tho gaping lookers-on some
    such remarks as the following:

    "Taw! haw! haw! haw!”

    Ho! he! he! he!"

    €O, Lar! Only luk at that!
    zee such a vace in all yer life!”

    “Lar a massy! Thowpes as there's no
    timid women here to-day. Taw! haw!
    haw! I shall zartinly die o' latin!"

    To seo these rustics destorting ‘ the face
    divine” afforded young meadows im-
    measurable satisfaction, They were ‘* grin

    “Grin away, Toth!" cried 9 fellow in
    the crowd, ‘* Grin aw'a m' bwoy! Thee'lt

    “Two to one on Jim,” roared another;
    ‘he'd grin a hoss’s yead off!”
