A traveller wended the wilds among, With a purse of gold anda silver tongue ; His hat it was broad, and all drab were his clothes, For he hated high colors—except on his nose: And he met with a lady, the story goes. The damsel! she cast hima merry blink, And the traveller was nothing loath, ihink, Her merry black eyo beamed her bonnet be- neath, And the quaker be grinned, for he'd very good teeth; And he asked, - Art thou going to ride on the heath?’ *Lhope you'll protect me, kind sir,’ said the maid, * As to ride this heath over [am sadly afraid ; For robbers they say here in numbers abcund, Aod !] would’ni for anything I should be found : For between you and mel have five bundred pound.’ ; ‘that is thine own, dear, the quaker said, +] ne'er saw a maiden | sooner would wed; And | Lave another five hundred just now, In the padding that s under my saddie-bow : And I'll settle it al! upon thee | vow.’ The maiden ste smiled, and tbe rein she drew * Your offer I'll take, though I'll not take ‘? 4 pistol she beld to the quaker’s head— Now give me you're gold, or I'll give you my lead ; "Tia under the saddle, [thnak you said And the damsel ripped up the saddie-bow, And the quaker was never a quaker till now ; And he saw by the fairone he wished fora bride, His purse drawn away with a swaggering stride, And the eve that looked tender now only detied, ‘The spirit doth move me, friend Broadbrim’ quoth she, To take all this filth) temptation from thee; For mammon deceives, and beauty is fleeting.

Asa peace-offering Harry bought a new house for which he paid dewn three thousand dol lars in cash, and gave his notes for the bal- ' ance, four thousand. With the title deed in his pocket, he called at the modest paternal residence. Mr. Melville received his kindly, yet not with the old cordiality, for some one or two sentenees uttered during their last interview, stung him severely, and the pain had not yet subsided. ‘What are these?’ saidthe elder Mr. Mel- | ville, as Harry laid upon a table, before his father, the title papers of the new house. ‘ Read them,’ was the smiling answer. With a halfcurious manner, Mr. Melville opened a broad parchment sheet. [lis eyes glanced hurriedly over the contents; but his face, instead of brightening, grew colored. :¢ Explain this Harry,’ he said, looking up at his son. ‘ Does it not explain ‘tself, father?’ ‘No.’ | Mr, Melville shook his head to make -no’ emphatic ‘have always looked forward to this time with a pleasure that words can hardly ex- | press,’ said Harry leaning towards his fatuer, and speaking with a sudden warmth of : These papers are merely the title Yoke them manner. deeds of a house, which is yours. | as some small return for all that | owe you. { A son's debt can never be whoolly cancelled.’ | | Mr. Melville was touched by this act, and | softened by the manner of his son. for al- most a minute he sat with a gaze upon the floor.

LITERATURE. ee SHATTERED BY THE FIRST STORM. A LESSON FOR YOUNG MEN, SRR OREO EEE OO Al the ripe age of twenty-one, handsome Henry Melville decided 'o go into business on | his own account. *WaitSuntil you're twentyshve,'said Harry's prudent father. | { ‘And lose four years, returned Harry in- dignantly. ‘It is folly.’ * And gain ten,’ sail the oider Mr. Melville. * The earlier a young man goes into business, | the oftener he has got to fail before he grows | wise enough an‘! strong enough for success. My advice is to wait until you are thirty. | There will be ten chances in you favor than to one in your favor now. But Henry considered lis father old, fogys teh and behind the times. and so lei his pru- dent counsel go for naught. He had been three years in a jobbing house on Market Street, and considered himeelf fully posted up in business matters, and quite equal to the ecmmon run of merchanis, Indeed, to hear Marry talk on matters of irade was edifying - and an uninitiated listner would hardly fail te give him credit for considerably more than was his due . Harry Melville had ten thousand dollars left him by an uncle. Al twenty-one the property came into hishands It wasin the shape of State stockés and readily convertable into money. Upon this -um he commenced business, in company with a young friend about hisown age, and about equally ex- perience, Ten thousand dollars in cash was somes thing of a basis for credit, and although our young merchants expended twenty-five hundred dollars in fitting up their store, they found no difficully whatever in stocking it with more than all the goods they needed. The times were propitious. Credit was cheap. Everybody bougut and everybody sold, with scarcely the formality o. inquiry as to the basis on which comiidence rested. In jess than two years Melville & Morris were doing business at the fast rate of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars per annum, and making fabulous protits. To marry and set up flashy domestic establishments ca.ve aia natural result. Both the young partners committed this additiona) folly. To marry would have been weil enough, if modest Providenc#had smiled her quiet blessing on therite. Butas it was silly Pride and weak Ambition reigned triumphant. Old Mr. Melville shook hishead, looked grave and remonstrated in private with his son; but Harry grew impatient at tho old gentleman's narrow thoughted interference, oad fine)ly requested him to couse the repeiti- | tive things. while the bank balance was below three thousand. So there were twelve thousand to raise. Young Melville considered himself great as a finaneier. Flis self-contidence over leaped all possibilities. But the trial and proof had come now. When banks restrict, private lenders take the alarm; and the price of money goes up to ruinous figures. So our young merchant found; if, Melville's t- nancing operations on that day were things | ‘isin the form of an (oririnal ‘letter to the | for after reniembrance. not forgotien them up to this time. He has, probably, o'clock, his notes were lifted, buta sacrifice | After a glauce at | his bill-book for the next day, Melville start- | fearful to countemplate. ed for his luxurious home, ta meet his dainty, fashionable wife, in a state of mind border- ing on despair, for the next day's payments were over twelve thousand dollars. He had seen and heard enough during the days fi- nancial experiments, to satisfy him that not one half of that sum could be raised ; and so a vague terror took the place of conceited self-contidence; and the frightened young merchant, who bad come in and gone out with such an elastic thread and proud bear | ing, entered his house with all his feathers drooping. So quietly had hecome in that his waitiag wife failed to hear the opening door and familiar step in the passage Wondering at her husband's long stay beyond the usual hour, she came down stairs, under the influ- ence of a restless feeling. Kntering the ' parlor, she started in sudden surprise and | alarm, fur there, reclining upon a lounge was her handsome young husband, his pale face the image of weak despair. * Oh Harry you are ill!’ she exclaimed, flying across the room, and dreoping down upon the floor in front of the lounge. ‘fam in trouble, was his shocking reply. ‘Ob, what bas happened Harry? ‘] don't know,’ he answered. wildered. Something@has gone wrong into | business. Oh, Florry, I have passed through a fearful Jay! and there is no sirength left in | me.” Whata change from the bold braggart of the day before! But Harry Mel- ville was a mere dandy in trade. There was no muscle inthe man, no reserved power, no elastic property. He had grown as a bailoon grows, and, like a balloon, collaysed at the tirst sharp puncture, What could a mere summer-blossom of a wife do to help a man in such an extremity ? Nothing’ She could weep and could wring her hands, and sob like a distressed actress. But she had no comforting suggestions, no brave words no hopeful sentiments to offer. Did our young merchant, eNer a period of cool reflection, take heart again? did he go out on the next morning, and nerve himself for another struggle with the difficulties which had so suddenly closed around him ? No! Busy money, through the remainder of that day and evening, supplied him with data enough to complete his total overthrow asaman of nerve and action. His boyish pertner came to see him with brave words. But they were of noavail. He was panic gave up without a struggle. An the next day the notcs of the firm went ‘o protest. An aessigment of affairs, the cred- ilors received a dividend of twenty cents on the dollar ! Just twenty-three years of age was Harry Melville, when he shrunk back from his ad- vanced position in the business and socia} world. a bankrupt. his name a word of ra- proach or contempt on hundreds of lips, and sought a hiding place with bis helpless wife in the house of his father, whose predictions had been so speedily fulfilled. His bark was shattered by the first storm. Take the lesson to heart, ye too eager young men. The story is scarcely ao exag- geration. Old Mr. Melvilie was entirely right in his counsel to bis son. A business commenced at twenty five, is almost certain to result in failure. The first thing that e young man who hopes to succeed in the world needs to learn is economy in his per- sonal expenses. Ifa clerk he spends his en- tire earnings, and trusts to get into busime-s by virtue of credit, the chances of failure are to one against him.

ART Magnificent Conception, carried out,”’ The necessity of a popular medium for the representation of the productions of our great artist, has always been recognized, and many attempts have been made to meet the want. The successive failures which so invariably followed each attempt in this country t establish an art journal, did not prove the in- difference of the people of America to the claims of high art. So soon asa proper ap- preciation of the want and an ability to meet it were shown, the public at once railied with enthusiasm to its support, and the result was a great arlist and commercial triumph-—THE ALDINE. THE ALDINE, while issued with all regu- larity, has nonecf the temporary or timely interest characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It isan elegant miscellany of pure, light, and graceful literature ; anda collection of pic- tures, the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in black and white. Although each succeed- ing uumber .affords a fresh pleasure to its friends, and the real value and beauty of the ALDINE will be most appreciated after it is bound upat the close of the year. While other pablicalions may claim superior cheap- ness, as compared with rivals ofa similar class, THE ALDINE is a unique and original concepaion—alone and unapproached—ab- solutely without competition in price or The prossessor of a complete volume can not duplicate the quantity of fine paper and engravings in any other shape or number of volumes for len times its cost ; and then, there is the chrorao besides ! The national features of TNE ALDIYE must Le taken in no narrow sense. True are its cosmopolitan, While THE ALDINE is a strictly American institution, it does not confine itself entirely to the reproduction of nalive art. Its mission is to cultivate a broad and appreciative art taste, one that will discriminate only on grounds of intrinsic merit, Thus, while placing before the pat- rons of THE ALDINE, as a Jeading charac- terislic, the productions of the most noted Amevican artists, atleation will always be given to specimens from fereign masters giving subscribers all the pleasure and in- struction obtainable from home or foreign sources. Theartistic illusration of American scen- ery, original with THE ALDINE is an im- portant feature, and its magnificent plates be ofasize more appropriate to the Satisfactory treatmemt of details than can afforded by any inferior page.
