(Continued. ) He was writing his last letier, when he beard in the outer office a voice he thought he krew. He got up and listened. It was eo. Of all the voices in the city, this was the one it most dismayed him to hear in his office at the present crisis. He listened on, and satisfied himseif that a fatal blow wes coming. Ue then walked quietly to his table, seated himself, and prepared to receive the stroke with external com posure, Penfold announced Mr. Burtenshew. ‘Show him in,’ said. Wardlaw, quietly. Mr. Burthenshaw one of the manegers of Morland’s bank, came in, and Wardlaw motioned bim courteously toa chair, while he finished his letter, which took only a few mcments. While he wis sealing it, he half turned to his visitor, and said: ‘No bad news? Morland is safe, of course? ‘Well,’ said Burtenshaw, ‘there is a run upen the bank—a severe cne. We could not hope to escape the effects of a panie.’ He then, after an uneasy pause, and with apparent reluctance, added: tM ‘lL am requested by the other directors to assure you it is their present extremity alone thai—— In shoit, we are really com- pelled to beg you to repay the amount advanced to you by the bank,” Wardlaw showed no elatm, but great surprice. This was chver, for he felt great alaym, and no surprise, . ‘The £84,000? said he, why a advance wes vpon the freight of the . serpine.’ gold. She onght to be here by' this time, She isin the Channel at this moment, no doubt.’ — ‘Exenst me; she is overdue, apa the underwriters are uneasy, 1 haye made inquiries,’ ., ; ‘At any rate,'ehe is folly insured, and you hold the policies, Besides the mame of Wardlaw on your books should stand for bullion.’ ; Burtenshaw shook his, head. ‘Names are at a discount to-day, sir. We can’t pay you ddwn on the ceunter. Why, our depositors look cross at Bank of land notes.’ ‘ To an inguiry—half ironical—whether the managers really expected him to find £81,000 cash ata few hours’ notice, Bur- tenshaw replied, sorrowfully, that they felt for his difficulty whilst deploring their own; but that, after all, it was a debt; aud, int chore if he Souda ho means of pay- ing it, they must suspend payment for a time, and issue a statement—and He hesitated to complete his sentence, and Wardlaw did it for him. ‘And ascribe your snspension to my inability to refund this advance?’ said he, bitterly. ‘lam afraid thgt is ‘the construction it will bear.’ Ward'aw rose, to intimate he had no more to say. Burtenshaw, however, was not dis- posed to go without some clear understand- ings oe say we shall hear from you, sir? ‘Yes, And so they wished each other good morning; and Wardlaw sank into his chair, In that quiet dialogue, ruin had been in- flicted and receive without any apparent agitation; aye, and worse than ruin—ex- posure, Morland’s suspension, on account of money lost by Wardlaw & Son, would at; once bring old Wardlaw to London, and the affairs of the firm would be investigated, | Forty-five thousand ounces’ of! pride at bringing such good news. ‘Why, the Rollestons will be in London at 2 15. See; here is his telegram.’ At this moment in ran Penfold, to tell tee that the ‘Shannon’ was up at Lloyd's —had anchored otf Liverpool last night. There wasa hearty shaking of hares, and Arthur Wardlaw was the happiest isan in London—fer a litle while. ‘Got the telegram at Elm-trees, this morning, and came up by the first express,’ s:id Warélaw senior. The telegram was from Sir Edward Rol- leston, * Reached Liverpool last night; will be at Euston at 215.’ ‘Not a word from her! ‘Oh, there was no time to write; and ladies do not use the telegram.’ He added slyly: ‘Perhaps she thougut coming in-person would do as well, or better, eh But why does he telegraph you instead of me? ‘T am sure I douw't know. What dees it matter? Yes, ldo kvow. It-was settled months ago that he and Helen should come to -me at Bim-trees, so I was the proper person: @o telegraph. » Pil go and meet them dt he -siaiion; theré is plenty of time. But, I say, Arthur have you seen the papers? ‘Bart'oy Brothers obliged to wind up. Maple aud Cox, vf Liverpool, gone; Atlantic trading: Terry and Beown suspended; International credit gone. Old fnends, some of these. Hopley and Timms, railway contractors, failed, sir; liabilities, seven hundred thov- sand pounds and more.’ ‘Yes, sir’ said Arthur, pompously; ‘1866 will long be remembered for its: revelations of commercial morality,’ Yhe old gentleman, on this, asked his son, with excusable vanity, whether he had done ill in steering clear of speculation; he then congratulated him ov having listened ood advice, and siuck to legitimate Coals ‘Lmust say, Arthur, added he, ‘your books are models for apy trading m,’ Pe winced in secret undey this praise, for it occurred to him that in a few days his father would discover those books were alla sham, and the accounts a fabrication. However, the unpleasant topic was soon interrupted and effectually, teo; for Michnel locked in with an air of satisfaction on his benevolent countenance, and said; ‘Gentlemen, svch an. aprival! Here is Miss Rouse’s sweetheart that she dreamed was drowned.’ ‘What isthe man to me?’ said Arthur, peevishly. He did not recognize Wyle under that title. ‘La, Mr. Arthur! why, he is the mate of the ‘Proserpine,’ said Penfold, ‘What! Wylie! Jossph Wylie? cried Arthur, in a sudden excitewent, that con- 'trasted strangely with his previous indiffer- ence. é' ’ (To be eohtinised: ) ee ea — ED Success in Business. . Success in business, as-every merchant kuows, is easier to talk about than attain. I: is easier to put down expected profits on paper, than to put down the right kind of paper on the bank counter. There are cer- tain principles and rules of action necessary on the part of the business man or success will not follow his efforts. Itis essential for one who is launching into business to know the different points of the compass, and have agood chart before him, as for a pilot who has been entrusted with a vala- able cargo. Those who are already on a voyage and have had, so far, fair winds cannot expect that these will always last. To be eucerssful, if the storm should come, they must be prepared. Anold merchant who lately retired witha fortune, said: ‘‘I always made a point dur- ing the time I was in business to keep a good stock of yoods on hand of those goods and the son’s false system of book-keeping | that were in general demand, and marked be discovered. Wardlaw sat stupefied awhile, then put price. ( on his hat and rushed to his solicitor; on} Profits were a fraction more. the way he fell in with a great talker, who) ’ told’ him ‘there was a rumor that the|representing them as they were. ‘Shannon’ was lost in the Pacitic. At this he nearly fainted in the street, and his friend took him back to his qffice in a deplorable condition. All this time he had been feigning anxiety about the ‘Proserpine,’ and concealing his real anxiety about the ‘Shannon.’ To do hitn justice, he lost sight of everything in the world now bat Helen. He sent old Penfold in hot haste to Lloyd's, to inquire for news of the ship, and then he sat down sick at heart; and al! he could do now was to open her portrait, and gaze at it through eyes blind- ed with tears. Even a vague rumor, which he hoped might be false, had driven ali his. commercial maneuvers out of him, and made all other calamities seem small. And so they all are small, compared with the death of the crature we love. While he sat thus, in a stupor of fear and yrief, he heard a well-known voice in the outer office; and next after Burtenshaw’s, it was the one which caused him the! most apprehension. It was his father’s. Wardlaw senior rarely visited the office now, and this was not his hour. him up totown. And he could not doubt that it was the panic, and that he had been to Morland’s or would go there in the course of the day; but, indeed, it was more probable that he had already heard some- thing, and was come to investigate. Wardlaw senior entered the room. ‘Good-morning, Arthur,’ said he; ‘I’ve got good news for you. Arthur was quite startled by an announce- ment that accorded so little with his expecta- tions, incredulous tone. ‘Ay, glorions news! Haven’t “yon been anxious about the ‘Shannon?’ I have; more anxious than I would own.’ Arthur started up. ‘The ‘Shannon ? you, father !’ ‘She lies at anchor in-the Mersey !’ roared *the oid nn, With all a father's God bless Emperor William. So Arthur, knew something extraordinary had brought | ' ‘Goud news—for me? said he, in a faint the price at a small advance upon the cost On those goods in less demand my I pever mis- stated the qvality of my goode—always This gave my patrons confidence in me and they would as soon send their children for what they needed as to come themselves, I had to sell cheap; conscquently had to purchase as low as possible. Th doing this] always kept myself posted as to prices, which I ‘found was only to be accomplished through seme mercantile papers that were not con- trolled by large jobbing housee. I also inaugurated the system of short credits and long friends; consequently when I closed up business, my book sccounts were few and in small amounts. If a man expects to be snecessful in business, he must be honest—that is, give sixteen ounees to the pound; four quarts to the gallon; four full pecks to the bushel; and always post him- self as to the price of gouds. General News Notes. —— The first imprint of the now revised German Bible was recently presented to the Epitaph copied ina French cemetery : ‘*y AWAIT MY HUSBAND. 10ih October, 1820,” And below:— “WERE I AM! 7th February, 1880.” President Arthur entertains less in a general way thanany of his predecessors in twenty years, although he extends a gen- erous horpitality to his intimate circle of friends and adherents. The only copy of the London Times ever issued on a Sunday was an “‘extra” sent out in 1847 containing an announcement that saved the Bank of England from a seri- ous ‘‘run.” In 1852 Mr. Gladstone wrote a letter in which he alluded to his future great op- ponent Mr. D'Isracli, as a man of uncrupa- lousness and second motives—at once mecemty of Lord Derby and his curse. : sar eaten sonra ihren Asin
