‘capable of containing groceries. pickles

CHAPTER XX, (Continued. )

Why, thee’st let thy own whip fly i’ thy face,’ said her husband,who had now joined in the langh of the young ones.

‘It’s all very fine to look on and grin, rejoined Mrs. Poyser ;

‘when the crockery seems alive, and flie out o’ your hand like a bird. It’s like the ‘glass, sometimes, | What is to be broke will be broke, for I never dropped a thing i’ my life for want o’ holding it, else I should never ha’ kept the own wedding. And Hetty, are you mad? ,Whativer do you mean by coming down i

that way, and making ove think as there’s a|

ghost a walkin’ 7 th’ house ! | A new outbreak of laughter, while Mrs.

|days now, 80 we can give you no account.’

Poyser was speaking, was caused, less by |

| her sudden conversion to a fatalistic view of |

jug breaking, than by that strange looking |

|appearance of Hetty which had started ‘her aunt. The little minx had found

a black gown of her aunts, and pin. |¥et.

ined it close round her neck to look like|

|Dinah’s, had made her hair as flat .as she could, and had tied on one of 'Dinah’s high-crowned, borderless net-caps. | The thought of Dinah’s pale grave face and ‘mild gray eyes, which the sight of the ‘gown and cap brought with it, made it a laughable surprise enough to see them re- placed by Hetty’s round, rosy cheeks and |coquettish dark eyes. The boys got ot their chairs and jumped round her, clapping their hands, and even Alick gave a low, ventral laugh as he looked up trom his |beans. Under cover of the noise, Mrs. | Poyser went into the back kitchen to send | Nancy into the cellar with the great pewter | measure, which had some chance of being | free from bewitchment.

‘ Why, Hetty, lass, are ye turned Metho- (dis ? gaid Mr. Poyser, with that comfort- ,able, slow enjoyment of a laugh which one ‘only sees in stout people, ‘ You must pull your face a deal longer before you'll do for one; mustna she, Adam? How come ye to put them things on, eh ”’

‘Adam said he liked Dinah’s cap and gown better nor my clothes,’ said Hetty, sitting down demurely. ‘He says folks look better in ugly clothes.’

‘Nay, nay,’ said Adam, looking at her admiringly; ‘I only said they seemed to suit Dinah, But if I'd said you’d looked pretty in ’em, I should ha’ said nothing but what was trve.’

‘Why, thee thought’st Hetty war a ghost, didstna ? said Mr. Poyser to his wife, who now came back and took her seat again ‘Thee look’dst as scared as scared.’

‘It little sinnifies how I looked,’ said Mrs. Poyser; looks ull mend no jugs, nor laughing neither, as I see. Mr. Bede, I’m sorry you've to wait so long for your ale, but it’s coming ina minute. Make your- self at home wi’ the cold potatoes; I know

What is there to laugh at, I

| laughing. I'd sooner cry nor

,should like to know ! laugh at the sight o’ that poor thing’s cap ; att there’s them as ‘ud be better if they could make theirselves like her i’ more ways It little becomes anybody i’ this house to make fun o’ my sister’s child, an’ her just gone away from us, as it went to my heart to part wi’ her; an’ I know one thing as if trouble were to come, an’ I war to be laid up i’ my bed, an’ the children was to die—as there’s no knowing but what they will—an’ the murrain was tc come among the cattle again, an’ everything went to rack an’ ruin—I say, we might be glad to get sight o’ Dinah’s cap again, wi’ her own face under it, border or no border. For she’s one o’ them things as looks the brightest on a rainy day, and loves you the best when you’re most i’ need on’t.

Mrs. Poyser, you perceive, was aware that nothing would be so likely to expel the comic as the terrible.

Tommy, who was of a susceptible dis- position, and very fond of his mother, and who had, besides, eaten so many cherries as to have his feelings less under command than usual, was so affected by the dreadful |picture she had made of the possible ‘future, that he began to cry; and the good natured father, indulgent to all weakness ‘but those of n gligent farmers, said to | Hetty.

my lass it hurts your aunt to see ‘em.’ Hetty went up stairs again, and the | arrival of the ale made an agreeable diver- ‘sion; for Adam had to give his opinion of ‘the new tap, which could not be otherwise

‘You'd better take the thinks off again, | |

And so the time passed pleas- antly till Adam got up to go. He was

‘I shall go a step farther,’ said Adam, ‘and go on to see Messer Massey, for he wasn't at church yesterday, and I’ve not seen him fora week past. l’ve never hardly

++ known hita to miss church before.’

‘Ay,’ said Mr. Poyser, ‘we've heard nothing about him, for it’s the boy’s holi-

* But you'll never think o’ going there at this hour o’ the night? said Mrs. Poyser, folding up her knitting.

‘Oh, Messer Massey sits up late,’ said Adam. ‘An’ the night school’s not over Sone o’ the men don’t come till late, they've got so far to walk. And Bartle himself’s never in bed till it’s gone eleven.’

‘I wouldna have him to live wi’ me, then,’ said Mrs. Poyser, ‘a-dropping can- dle grease about, as you're like to tumble down o’ the floor the first thing 1’ the morn- ing.’

* Aye, eleven o’clock’s late—it’s late,’ said old Martin. ‘I ne'er sot up so i’ my hie, not to say as it warna a marr in’, or a chris tenin’, or a wake, or th’ harvest supper. Eleven o’clock’s late.’

‘Why, I sit up till after twelve often,’ said Adam, laughing, ‘ but it isn’t to eat and drink extry, it’s t work extry. Good night, Mrs. Poyser; good night, Hetty.’

Hetty could only smile and not shake hands, for hers were dyed and damp with currant juice; but all the rest gave a hearty shake to the large palm that was held out to them, and said, ‘Come again, come again |’

* Ay, think o’ that now,’ said Mr, Poyser when Adam was out on the causeway. ‘Sitting up till past twelve to do extry work! Ye’ll not find many men o’ six-and- twenty as ‘ull do to put i’ the shafts wi’ him. If youcan catch Adam fora husband, Hetty, you'll ride i’ your own spring-cart some day, I'll be your Warrant.’

Hetty was moving across the kitchen with the currants, so her uncle did not sce the little toss of her head with which she answered him. To ride in a spring-cart seemed a very miserable lot indeed to her now.

The Condition of Ireland.

MR. WILLIAM O'BRIEN TAKES A HOPEFUL VIEW OF AFFAIRS.

A correspondent lately had a long and interesting interview with Mr. William O’Brien, editor of United Ireland, and member of Parliament for Mallow in the County Cork. In answer to a question by the correspondent as to the condition of the people in Ireland, Mr. O’Brien said :— ‘The prospects of the Irish peasaniry were never better than they are at the presen raoment. There have been many winters before this when it has required desperat: means to get food and fuel Thank God that is over. The Irish people are now «x situated that they can take care of thein- selves and each other, and that is about ali they have ever asked. Come what ma there will be no more famines in Ireland is appeal to the benevolence of the rest of the world.’

‘You think, then, that self-sustaining /’

‘It is more than that. It is so produc tive that it should be a great export-ng country, and it will be in course of time.

‘What is the particular grievance of th Irish people at the present time !’

‘There is none, except in the grazin districts. Most people. who theorize about improvement in Ireland seem to think that the conversion of large grazings into smal! farms will be a pamacea for all the ills that Ireland is heir to. This is not true. The Irish people depend to a large extent upon the growth of cattle, and if. the big farms go the little tillage farms will speedily fol- low.’ ,

“How does the production ‘of cattle affect Ireland’s prospétts now

‘ Not much, certainly, at present, but a good jeal of beefeis shipped from.here to England, and if last seagon’s prices for cattle are not improved, the present depres-
