ADAM BEDE.

——> CHAPTER XXXIII. (Continued. )

Our good Adam had no-fine words into which he could put his feelings for Hetty ;

he could not disguise mystery in this way with the appearance of knowledge; he

called his love frankly a mystery, as you

have heard him. He only knew that the

Adam had never behaved so much like a determined Jover before. As soon as tho boys had both set off. he looked down at Hetty and said, *Won’t you hang on my arm, Hetty? in a pleading tone, as if he had already asked her and she had re- fused. Hetty looked up at him smilingly and put her round arm through his in a moment. It was nothing to her—putting her arm through Adam's; but she knew he

sight and memory of her moved him deeply, cared a great deal about having her arm touching the spring of all his love and ten- through his, and she wished him to care.

mind he believed in out of his own, which) was large, unselfish, tender.

The hopes he felt about Hetty softened a little his feelings toward Arthur. Surely,

Her heart beat no faster, and she looked at the half bare hedgerows and the ploughed oppressive dullness as before. But Adam scarcely felt that he was walking; he thought Hetty must know that he was pressing her arm a little—a very little; words rushed to his

seemed dead forever might revive in the _days to come, and he would not have to say ‘good-bye’ to the grand old woods, but , would like them better because they were Arthur's. For this new promise of happi- ness, following so quickly on the shock of ‘pain, had an intoxicating effect on the sober Adam, who had all his life been used ito much hardship and moderate hope. ,Was he really going to have an easy lot after all! it seemed so ; for at the begin- ‘ning of November, Jonathan Burge, find- ‘ing it impossible to replace Adam, had at ‘last made vp his mind to offer him a share ‘in the business, without further condition ,than that he should continue to give his energies to it, and renounce ali thought of jbaving a separate business of his own. 'Son-in-law or no son-in-law, Adam had ‘nade himself toonecessary to be parted with, ‘and his head work was so much more im- portant to Burge than his skill in handi- ‘eraft, that his having the management of the woods made little difference in the value ‘of his services; and as to the bargains about the Squire’s timber, it would be easy to call ‘in athird person. Adam saw here an open- ing into a broadening path of prosperous ;work, such as he had thought of with ! ambitious longing ever since he was a lad ; ‘he might come to build a bridge, or a town j hall, or a factory, for he had always said to jhimself that Jonathan Burge's building | business was like ag acorn, which might be the mother ofa great tree. So he gave his 'hand to Burge on the bargain, and went | home with his mind full of happy visions, ‘in which (my refined reader will perhaps be | shocked when I say it) the image of Hetty | hovered and smiled over his plans for seas- 'oning timber at a trifling expense, calcula- tions as to the cheapening of bricks per | thousand by water carriago, aad a favorite scheme for the strengthening of roofs and walis with a peculiar form of iron girder. What then, Adam’s enthusiasm lay in these tidings; and our love is inwrought in our enthusiasm as electricity is inwrought in the ‘air, exalting its power by a subtile pxesence. | Adam would be able te take a separate ij house now, and provide for his mother in ‘the ala one; his prospects would justify (his marrying very soon, and if Dinah con- ‘sented to have Seth, their mother wéuld »erhaps be more contented to live apart Bas Adam. -But he told himself that he 1\would not be hasty—he would not try | Hetty’s feeling for him until it had time to 'orow strong and firm. However, to- ‘morrow, after church, he would go to the | Hall Farm and tell them tho news. Mr. | Poyser, he knew, would like it better than ‘a five pound note, and he should tee if 'Hetty’s eyes brightened at it. The mouths |would be short with all he had to fill his 'mind, and this foolish eagerness which had ‘come over him of jlaie must vot hurry him ‘yato avy premature words. Yet, when he got home and told his mother the good news, and at his supper, while she sat by ‘almost erying for joy, and wanting him to ‘eat twice as much as usual because of his ‘good luck, he could not help preparing her ‘gently for the coming change, by talking of ithe old honse being too small for them all ‘to go on living in it always.

j OHAPTER XXXIV. THE BETROTHAL.

[t was adry Sunday, and really a pleas-

was po sunshine but the clonds were high,

hedgerow elms must have failen from pure decay. Nevertheless, Mrs. Poyser did not go to church, for she had taken a cold too serious to be neglected ; only two winters ago she had been laid up for weeks with a cold; and since his wife did pot go to church, Mr. Poyser considered that on the whole it would be as well for him to stay away too and ‘keep her company.’ He could, perhaps, have given no precise form to the reasons that determined this con- clusion; but it is well known to all ex- perionced minds that our tirmest convictions are often dependent on subtle impressions to which words are quite too coarse a medium,

However it was, no one from the Poyser family went to church that afternoon except Hetty and the boys; yet Adam was boid enough to join them after church, and say he would walk home with them, though all the way through the village he appeared to be chiefly occupied with Marty and Tommy, telling them about the squirrels in Binton Coppice, and promising to take them there jsome day But when they came to the

/

see if she would be pleased. Sv, when he was enough master of himself to talk, he said :

‘I’m going to tell your uucle soms news that’jl surprise him, Hetty; and 1 think he'll be glad to hear it too.’

‘ What’s that ! Hetty said, indifferently. ‘Why, Me. Burge has offered me a share in his business, aud I’m going to take it.’

“The Mikado.”

Gilbert and Sullivan’s new Japanese opera, entitled, ‘‘The Mikado, or the Town of Titipi,” was produced at the Savey Theatre, London, on the 18th inst. ‘The warinth of its recepuion promises a success greater than any since *‘ Patience.” Its popularity will be due more to the bright- ness of Sullivan’s melodies than to Gilbert's work, which lacks his usual piquancy. The story, which turnson an edict of the Mikado cf Japan, declaring that ali who flirted, leered, or winked, unless married, should forthwith be beheaded, is developed in dialogue which is often commonplace and weak. The witticisms show occasional flashes of cynical humor, but are not in the best style. The theme throughout lacks everyday interest. The opera has but few topical references. All the defects of

authorship are absorbed in the charm of

the music, which is a succession of catebing melodies, some cuaint and simple, while others are full of glow and*passion. The general spirit and movements are instinct with fire and color. tn brief, the opera is a fine specimen of Sullivan’s characteristic method.

M. D.—Money Lown. The cases against Dr. Buchanan and Mrs. Russell ended in Philadelphia on the [7th inst., to the conviction of the former, and the acquittal of the latter. A brother of Dr. Buchanan testified in rebuttal of some of witness Moore's declarations, and at- tempted to impeach that witness’s character for veracity. The only persons that he had ever heard speak ill of Moore, however, were the prisoners. Mme. Russell herself took the stage. She ciaimed to be the daughter of Buchanan, her business partner, but not to have known of the relation until she was twenty years of age. She refused to say how she acquired her wealth. After ad- mitting that she was not a graduate of any regular medical school, she was questioned as to the meaning of ‘M. D.’ affixed to her name, on her business sign. She promptly replied ‘money down.’ ——“B ©. = - The People Happy.

The prosperity of the people is pretty well indicated by the extent of their amuse- ments and enjoyments. When people have ruin staring them in the face, aud times are hard, the community at large grow slow; and happy faces and empty pockets are net generally concomitants. Our country ex- changes show that, whilst Sir Richard Cart- wright has been preaching blue ruin at Ottawa, the people have been enjoying themselves with sleighing, surprise and do- nation parties, tea-meetings,and everything else to an extent unprecedented in a Cana- dian winter. And why all this hilarity / Because the people are happy and prosper- ous, and the blue ruin we hear of is only a figment of the imaginations of such men as Biue Knight Cartwright.—London, Ont
