ADVERTISEMENTS, 
I murmured at the goodness of God, and not until 
many months had passed by, did I feel that what¬ 
ever causes may operate in the removal of our 
loved ones, God overrules all for good both in 
heaven and earth 
not often that I allow myself to be bo overcome. 
Come to my room to-night before going to bed, 
and I will explain to you the cause of my present 
weakness.” 
So Baying, the good lady folded up her knitting, 
and went into the kitchen to superintend some 
culinary matters preparatory to getting tea, while 
the fair-haired Maggie sat silent and thoughtful, 
putting the last Btitches into a fine shirt, which 
Bhe was finishing for her father.

When the house was locked for the night, and 
all was quiet within, Maggie stole into Aunt V»m- 
ny’fl room, where she found the worthy matron 
reading that best of all books. Silently Maggie 
seaied herself by the blazing grate, and drawing 
her dressing-gown mote closely around her form, 
she leaned forward gazing into tue fire; her 
thoughts reverting to the unusual scene of the 
1 evening, and wondering in her heart what trial 
Annt Fanny could have endnred to make her 
lose, even for a moment, her usually wonderful self- 
control. 
Presently Aunt Fanny closed the volume, and 
taking off her spectacles, looked at her visitor, 
with one of her benevolent smiles, and said—“ Ah! 
true to my appointment.” And rising, she took 
from a drawer at hand, a small rose-wood box of 
antique workmanship, curiously inlaid with saiin- 
Sitting down, she

A jocrky having once oonanlted Harrison Gray 
Otis in a horse case, the latter sent him a bill of 
twenty dollars for advice. The client expostulat¬ 
ed, bat Mr. OtiB explained to him so fully and so 
blandly the reason of snob a charge—how he bed 
spent years and years in study, and thousands on 
thousands fitting himself to advise in snch mat* 
ters, that the jockey was obliged to capitulate and 
pay the bill. Not long afterwards, Mr. Otis was 
standing in the street examining a horse that he 
thought of purchasing, and seeing his client pas¬ 
sing, culled him up and asked him what he tho’t 
of the animuL The jockey set his hat aslant, ex¬ 
amined him on all sides, pronounced his opinion 
of him dogmatically, and then held ont hiB hand 
for a ice. It was Mr. Otis’ turn now to expostulate, 
but it was all in vain; our jockey recounted to him 
at what cost of time and money he had fitted him¬ 
self for judging horse flesh, and ended by saying: 
_ <• Come, come, Mr. Otis,professional hills must be 
paid; my charge is only twenty dollars.” Mr. Otis 
appreciated the joke and paid the hill 
I was thoughtless and selfish 
then, but my Albert’s peaceful death—hiB dying 
words whispered in my ear—his last look of unut¬ 
terable affection, are with me Btill, and I trust have 
exerted a hallowing influence over my life, which 
I vowed then should he dedicated to the good of 
others; while through these lung years that have 
passed with their discipline of sorrows, I Lave 
Btill been bleat with the abiding aflection of my 
own noble Albert. I have ever felt that his love 
is Btill the same, and not in vain the sorrow and 
disappointment which it brongbt to my heart. I 
have since been striving to be worthy an angel’s 
love, of my own, my ascended Albert’s."’ 
Unlocking the box, she took from it a small 
miniature Bet in gold, while Maggie, silent and 
tearful, gezed with her upon the youthful face 
there impresied. Long and earnestly did they 
look upon that picture; the one, with silvered 
hair looking back through the vfoia of two-score 
year, a girl again, still seeing the one beloved ob¬ 
ject of her heart’B affections Btill listening to the 
soft tones whispered in her ears from the shores 
of long ago;—and the other admiring the noble 
face before her, her heart overflowing with gentle 
sympathy, a holier love now springing there for 
that dear aunty, who had ever been to her the 
impersonation of all that wu good and true in 
woman, but who was dow invested with a higher 
beanty by a knowledge of this great grief so 
meekly borne, from whose painful discipline such 
noble strength, Bucb blessed tiust and peace had 
been born. 
At length she whispered—" 1 b it naturul, aunty?” 
"Yes, dear!” replied Aunt Fanny softly, 
“nothing could be more so; the same broad fore¬ 
head, with it* clustering locks, the same loving 
eye, and even the rosy cheeks were there, when 
forty years ago he placed the picture in my hand. 
I never lie down at night without looking at it,” 
said she, as she replaced it with the letters and 
keepsakes in the box again. 
« But, Maggie, don’t let my Btory sadden your 
yonng heart,” continued she, a holy calm irradiat¬ 
ing her brow, “for I feel, darling, that it’s all right;

Albert Harley was the companion of my earli¬

A Capital Hit.—A married lady who was in the 
habit of spending moat of her time in the society 
of her neighbors, happened one day to be sudden¬ 
ly taken ill, and sent her husband in great baste

but soon returned, exclaiming, “My dear, where

AUNT FANNY’S STORY 
Manufacturing Go. 
BY M. C. GRANNI8S. 
« Ik he ask bread, will ye give him a stone ?" 
“ Depend upon it,” said Aunt Fanny, with an 
emphatic tone, as ahe rested her knitting work 
on her lap, and ran her spare needle gently back 
and forth through her hair, “there's more relig¬ 
ion in a hatch of bread, than the world knows of! 
Now here you are, Maggie, another Bix months, 
(God willing) and you will be Mrs. Walter Linn, 
and yet yon have never made a loaf of domestic 
bread!” 
“ Bat aunty,” * ■ • ■ i he fair-haired girl, looking 
np from her Bewi.'g, “ lucre's no need of my doing 
that, I am sure; you Enow I shall always keep help, 
and any one that I shall hire, will understand how 
to make bread, I hope.” 
«Perhaps so,” replied Annt Fanny, “ bnt I can 
tell yon, It’s not always the case, end even if it 
Bhonld be, every woman ought to know how to make 
good light bread, before she is married; it’s their 
duty—yes, their Christian doty, to do it,” And 
Annt Fanny resumed her knitting, and plied her 
needles most vigorously, while she continued:— 
“I know you have improved your knowledge of 
cookery this winter, but yon are not perfect in 
this department, even though yon can make rich 
pastry-cake, pnddingB, and even soda blsonit— 
The art of bread-making Jb, after all, the moBt im¬ 
portant, for no table, though ft may be loaded 
with luxuries from the four quarters of the globe, 
if this ‘ staff of life ’ be wanting, is properly fur¬ 
nished.” 
Maggie drew her chair nearer Annt Fanny, while 
this best of matron’s tongues kept pace with her 
knitting needles. 
“ I know you think it’s a small matter, but you 
are mistaken, and I must try to set yon right— 
Now, Maggie, there's ’Squire Fairbanks, and all 
the yonng Fairbanks, that look so bilious and 
dyspeptic; their health is actually crucified, day 
by day, from eating such abominable bread. I 
knew John Fairbanks years ago, and amorebealth- 
ly looking man was never seen, hut he hadn’t been 
married two years when every one noticed the 
change in his appearance. Hm wife never did 
make bread fit to eat, and it was hot cakes and a 
baker’s loaf, or still worse, her own leaden dongb, 
until he became the cadaverous-looking man you 
no w see; but bad as it ia, the consequences are not 
entirely confined to physical ills, they reach still 
farther and affect the brain, for who ever knew a 
person to thick clearly or reason candidly npon 
any subject when suffering the horrors of confirm¬ 
ed dyspepsia? And I firmly believe that the deci¬ 
sion the ’Squire rendered in Roger Smyth’s case, 
unjust as it was, should be attributed to bad bread 
rather than to a bad heart. But I know some folks 
who think it’s impossible always to have good 
bread, that ' bad lack’will happen sometimes; as 
though luck had anything to do with it Why it 
always irritates me to hear people talk in this way, 
for there’s no more need of a failure in preparing 
this simplest form of food, than of any other cer 
tainty in the world. Only learn how to make it 
once, and then keep your eyes open and your 
mind npon it, and with good materials to use, you 
may defy the whole regiment of cooks to beat you 
in this department, at least. But from those kind 
of housekeepers that wont learn nor stay learnt, I 
say devoutly ‘ Good Lord, deliver ns!’ for though 
they may he excellent people in their way, no per¬ 
son could remain free from dyspepsia while under 
their care.” 
“But, aunty,” said Maggie, “you don’t pretend 
to say that bad bread is the canse of all the dys¬ 
pepsia in the world, do yon?” 
“Perhaps not,” she replied, “but there’s more 
evil growing out of St than most people ever dream 
of. Ob, Maggie,” continued she, while a inoarn- 
ful shadow stole over her usually placid face, “ 1 
have seen the young aud beautiful Bi'uk away from 
my sight, stricken ost from a life of usefulness, a 
sun Betting at noon day; and all, all,” Bhe added, 
in a choking voice, “for this one evil.” 
A strong emotion shook her frame as she lean¬ 
ed forward and bowed her head npon the table.— 
Maggie threw her arms around her, and said, in 
tones of gentle sympathy, “ Oh, aunty! what alls 
you? I am so grieved to see you feel ho badly!' 
Making a desperate effort at self-control, sbe rais¬ 
ed her head, and said in a soft, sad voice, " Don’t 
Le distressed, my dear! I feel better now; it is

For Moore’s Kural New-Yorker 
CHARADE. 
To be my first we should avoid, 
For ’tia a passion that oft destroy’d 
Our reason’s powers, and made ns blind, 
To all that’s noble in mankind. 
And if my second yon would find, 
Now you will ple&Re to bear In mind, 
To take from it one particle. 
Yon would destroy an article. 
When day has faded into night, 
My third is often used to light 
The darkened gloom, and make our way, 
As clear and sure, as tho dawning day. 
In my last, Mars, the God of War, 
Came forth to battle from afar, 
In triumph from the din and jar, 
It also bore the conqueror. 
OH Afrlc’a fair and sunny shore, 
My whole was found in dajB of yore, 
And yet ’tls there, and long shall be; 
This grand old Island in the sea.
