STAMMERING 
And a Jijrtat was left in the window. At 12 
o’clock a load of stage-passengers looked out 
and saw its glimmerings with as much joy as 
the sador who secs his guiding-star alter it has 
been hid by the clouds. 
“Sam Buntek’b left a light for us —bless him 
for ’t r ” and Jake gave the peculiar whittle or 
cull of the stage-driver — a sound unlike any¬ 
thing made by bird or beast. 
“Don’t git up till 1 see what’s the trouble,” 
said Hunter to hie wife, springing out of a 
sound sleep and out of bed at the eame Instant. 
“I ’xpected this ail along,”— and very soon he 
was dressed, and with a lantern on his way to 
the eorduroy bridge, a quarter of a mile distant. 
“Fetch on some rpedts," halloed Jaxe, and 
spikes were needed and strong arms to use 
them. There lay the stage overturned and there 
stood the passengers in the mud, all uneasy and 
impatient, while Jake and the horses looked on 
undisturbed; they had seen the like before. 
“ Bridge ahead worse nor this here,” said Jaeb 
to Mr, Hunter, as they were righting up the 
vehicle. 
“ Yes, turn in to my house till mornin’,” was 
Mr. Huktbr’ 8 hospitable invitation. 
There were dve passengers; a lady, dressed in 
mourning, who was going on to the river and 
from thence lo fit. Louis; a German woman and 
her daughter, “ only tight vetk iroro die later- 
iand,” w ho had relative* in Nebraska; a middle- 
aged man, wearing a solt hat and suit of browu 
caseimere, easy and gentlemanly in his manner*; 
aud a ruuiii but good-hearted lcllow in a lur 
overcoat aud lur overshoes, who styled himself 
a “ b’ar-hniiter.” 
A uice, hickory fire was blazing and crackling 
in the Hunter house before they reached it;— 
its mistress didn’t wait to make one of coal, lor 
she had her head out of the window aud knew 
the trouble, lu less than a halt hqur they were 
all disposed ot in various ways on beds or 
lounges, except Jake and the bear-hunter, who, 
wrapping themselves iu buffalo skins, chose to 
lay botore the lire, 
And now comes the happiest partol my story. 
He who wore-the soft hat and suit of cassimere 
was Koukht Howard, Mrs. Humkk's long-loct 
tailor brother, lie had come in from a ten 
years’ whaling voyage and was traveling West 
to DnU bis lutfrtr and sister.

KING THE BELLS, 
Rum the bells, the merry bells, 
Oh t ring the bells of morning, 
When all nature's music swell* 
And Sol is all adorning. , 
When the dewdropa from the flower. 
In its new day beauty dressed— 
When the perfume from each bower 
Fills with joy the happy breast— 
Ring the bells and ring them sweetly 
Till they fill the heart completely. 
Ring the bells, the merry bells, 
When the mid day sun Ss high; 
Let their music a* it swells. 
Tell to all, as they pass by. 
That another morn has fled. 
That the day will quickly pas*. 
That Old Time, with silent tread, 
Measures moments with hia glass— 
Ring the hells, and ring them clearly, 
Mid-day belle are wished for dearly. 
Ring the bells, the merry belle, 
As the evening closes in, 
For their sound to labor telle 
Sweet repose should now begin. 
That the monarch of the day 
Takes his golden couch awhile, 
That the stars come out to play, 
And the moon to calmly smile— 
Ring the bell*, and ring them sweetly, 
TUI they fill the eoul completely. 
Ring the bells, the wedding belle, 
The bridegroom wal s their ringing; 
How hie bosom sinks nod sweil* 
For joys which they are bringing. 
Ring the bell*, the funeral bells, 
Although too sad their tolling. 
But ’tis truth their music tells, 
How fast our lives are rolling 
Adown the hill where silence dwells— 
But ring! oh ring 1 oh ring the bells.

A WHOLESALE ESTABLISHMENT 
We have many inquiries (10 to 20 letters a day) asking 
what discount we make t» the Trade from our prices as 
published In The Advocate. These are our lowest 
wholesale prte-M. We consider ourselves only a Whole¬ 
sale Corporation, and ve have hot one price. 
The way which we came to break packages at all, was 
that during the high prices of Teas we furnished parties 
with packages as small as five pounds. Our fame spread 
far and wide: and parties with small means thought U 
very hard to be compelled to pay, elsewhere, about a 
dollar per pound more than we were selling the same 
goods for. simply because they conld not airord to buy 
live pounds of us at one time. Therefore, in order to 
lighten these burdens, we consented to supply their 
wants in quantities as small as one pound at the whole¬ 
sale prices, 
Parties of small means wishing for goods to scU, can 
have their order* put up in small packages lo suit their 
trade but we cannot make any reduction in price, as onr 
profits for the last six years have not averaged more 
than two cents per pound. 
To give onr readers an Idea of the profits which have 
been made In the Tea trade, we will start with the Amer¬ 
ican bouses, leaving out of the account entirely the pro¬ 
fits of the Chinese factors. 
1st. The American Douse in China or Japan makes 
large profits on their sales or shipments—and some of the 
richest retired merchant* in thlsccmntry have math: their 
immense fortunes through their bouses in China. . 
2d. The Banker makes large profits upon the foreign 
exchange used In the purchase of Teas. 
Sd. The Importer makes a profit ol 30 to 50 per cent, in 
many cases. 
4th. On its arrival here It is sold by the cargo, and the 
Purchaser sells It to the Speculator In invoices of 1,000 to 
2 .U 00 package*, at an average profit of about 10 per cent. 
5U» The Speculator sells It to the Wholesale Tea Dealer 
In lines at a profit o! 1< 1 1 15 per cent. 
6tb The Wholesale Te* Dealer sells It to the Wholesale 
Grocer lu lots to suit bis trade, at a profit ol about 10 
per cent. 
7th. The Wholesale Grocer Bella It to the Retail Dealer 
at a profit of 15 to 25 per cent. 
9th. The Retailer sells It to the consumer for all the 
proJU he can pel, 
When you have added to these eight profits as many 
brokerages, cartage*, storages, cooperages, and waste, 
and add the original cost ol the tea, it wlU be preeel veil 
wliat the consumer has to pay. And now we propose to 
show why we can sell so very much lower than other 
dealers. 
We propose to do away with all these various profits 
and brokerages, cartage*, storages, cooperages, and 
waste, with the exception of a small commission paid for 
purchasing to onr correspondent* In China and Japan, 
one cartage, and a small profit to ourselves—which, on 
our large sales, will amply pay us. 
Forties getting Uidr Teas from tin may confidently rely 
upon getting them pure and fresh, as they come direct 
from the Custom Homos stores to our warehouses.

“Fob many a lad 
Born to rough work and way*. 
Strips off his ragged coat, and makes 
Men clothe him with their praise." 
There was nothing except hiB mother that 
Robbie Hpnter loved go well as his book. 
8amuel, his eldest brother, was satisfied with 
a dog and gun; and Howard, the next in 
order, fancied nothing so much as a horse. 
Robbie had heard his mother talk of high 
schools and colleges; he knew that “knowl¬ 
edge was power,” — that intellect, developed 
and educated, was the noblest and most valua¬ 
ble thing in the world. Though but a dozen 
birth-days had rested on his sunny-brown head, 
away In his heart was written the resolve to 
become an educated man. Howard’s ambition 
was to owd the best horses in the State, and 
Samuel wanted his father to remove west 
where game was plenty and hunting profitable— 
although going west might seem unnecessary 
to my young reader, when 1 tell him that the 
home of the Hunter boys was but eighty miles 
east of the Missouri River. 
Mrs. Hunter was a pale, delicate woman, 
with dark hair, ha 2 <sl eyes and a voice full of 
motherly kindness. She was born in New Eng¬ 
land : half a score of her years went blithely by 
and then her mother grew thin and white, and 
one autumn day the angels came for her to go 
to the Upper Home. Mrs. Honter’b fatherwas 
a land speculator, and after his wife died he sold 
out and went West. Her only brother, eight 
years older than herself, hired out to the captain 
of an Atlantic steamer, and so the broken family 
went opposite wayB. She lost her father at nine¬ 
teen, aud soon after married Samuel Hunter, 
a merry, brave and rough frontiersman, bom 
and raised in sight of Indian wigwams, and ac¬ 
customed to fish, hunt and play through boy¬ 
hood with his red brothers. He was very tender 
of Jennie, “The Prairie Flower,” as the Indian 
woman called his wife, and as proud of Robbie, 
the scholar, as of the two stout, sqnare-bnilt 
boys that were exact copies of himself and could 
outrun or ontlift any other boys in the county. 
Robbie bore the name of his uncle, who went 
out to make bis fortune on the seas, and he had 
the same high forehead, the same full, clear eye 
and finely cut features. 
It was an afternoon in March, cold, raw and 
rainy. Not a streak of bine had been anywhere 
seen on the gray-black sky all day. Mr. Hun¬ 
ter had been some miles away with his heavy 
ox team to get a load of coal, for wood was 
pcarce and coal-beds plenty. Mrs. Hunter had 
been finishing off a pair of 6triped mittens, 
while her thoughts had been going up and down 
the paths of her childhood, when 6he had 
worked and played with her brother in their far¬ 
away New England home. The old days flitted 
before her like half-forgotten tunes, till she 
heard her husband halloo “ whoa,” to the im¬ 
patient, dripping oxen. Coming in for the milk 
pail, he said, 
“ Why, mother, you set there jes’ like yon 
was in a dream. Come, aint it a’most time for 
supper?” 
“You’ve had a hard day, haven’t you 
Bam’ell?” and the little woman roused herself, 
promising him that supper 6hould be ready as 
soon as his chores were done. Patting his head 
back after he went ont, he said, “I come past 
the school house, an' the master won’t be here; 
he’s g’wine to set up with Deacon Smith to¬ 
night” 
Then “mother” put by her thoughts and her 
knitting, and soon a brace of prairie ducks, 
filled and flanked with stuffing, were in the 
oven, vegetables were boiling and the unfailing 
tea-kettle singing its evening song. “Most 
time for the boys to come,” thought she, look- 
uar IUUUCIO lutv ura^B ux htuj wmm., va a aiiiia' 
dozen, and them hiding their mischief under the 
cover oi a dark night, and It becomes a “ bridge 
of sighs" to the lnekle6a traveler. 
The road on which Mr. Honteb lived was em¬ 
braced in the stage route from Council Bluffs to 
the MhalseJppi river. The large, lumbering, 
lour-horec stages, passing and repaying daily 
and nightly, were regarded with great interest, 
both by grown-folks aud children — for by this 
means, friends, letters and the general news 
were brought to them; they were a connecting 
Jink between quiet homes, new village^ and the 
busy, throbbing lift) beyond. 
“J tell you, won’t old Jake 6w’ar when he 
conoe* to the. corduroy bridge, to-night,” said 
Samuel to Howard that evening, as they were 
eating and distributing hickury nuts; “he aliens 
does a things don’t go right" 
“He aliens does any way,” rejoined Howard. 
“Ho say* the one that drove the first Indian 
from the prairies ought lo have been huDg,” 
added Robbie, erasing (rom his slate the exam¬ 
ple he had just wrought. 
44 Was that sum light, Bob?" asked Howard, 
getting his fox and geese-board down. 
“ i’cs, and I’ve got every one in the lesson 
now.” 
“ Wish you’d show me to-morrow how to do 
’em.” 
“ 1 will to-night.” 
“ No: 1 should forgit ’em all by that time, and 
we’re g’wine to play lox and geese now.” 
“ (jTwlnt to?” and the boys had caught 
Howard again. 
Mr. Hunter had been looking over the news 
for half au hour and then bauded Robbie the 
paper;—he wasn’t a ready reader and it tired 
film. Robbie read aloud till the clock struck 
eight; by that time the bo>s had got so noisy 
over their slate that their father tent them to 
usd — when there was a slight improvement, 
lor the noise, il not lessened, was lartncr off. 
“Well, put up your paper, Robbie; it’s bed¬ 
time, and tike as not we’ll be routed by the 
stage-Iolks afore mornin’. Its well old Jake’s 
turn comes to-night, for he’s the best driver 
they’ve got on the r<tad.” 
“It’s dark as a pocket, father, but it don’t 
rain any now,” 6aid Robbie, pressing his face 
against the window aud looking out-of-doors, 
lie eonghed hard as he eame to the fire agaiD, 
and his mother 6aid, “ Get yonr feet hot, Rob¬ 
bie, and 1’U fix something for yonr cold.” 
“I’ve thopgbt so much to-day about my 
brother Robert,” said Mrs. Hunter toherhus*- 
band, ns she stood by the stove stirring the cor¬ 
dial lor Robbie; “iff could only know fora 
certniuty whether he was living or dead, it 
would be a great relief” 
“ lie'll turn up, some day, see if he don't, and 
couie in here when you least ’xpect him. It’s 
as hard to kill one o’ them 6ailors as it is an 
Arctic seal.” 
“Did you ever kill a seal, father?” and Rob¬ 
bie half lorgot his cold. 
“No, but I’ve seen lots o’ tellers that have, 
n’they say that alter you’ve killed ’em, or think 
you have, and skinned ’em and took off their 
iat, that then they’ll kick and bite with a ven¬ 
geance.’' 
“ Why, father,” said Mrs. Hunter with a 
smile, “ that’s a real hunter’s story.” 
“ That’s my name," returned the etory-teUer, 
“ and if you don't find what I tell yon In Nat’rai 
History then I’ll give np.” 
Koiuuk stepped up to a swing shelf in the 
farther end of the room which held the library, 
aud takiDg down the volume alluded to—which 
was a shaggy, dog’&-t**red book, because the 
children had Jumbled it through so many timed 
for its pictures—turned to the description of 
seals and confirmed hia father’s words. “Oh, 
hear this,' 1 he said, looking on a little farther, 
and he read:—“ The natives of Iceland believe 
them to oe the offspring ol Pharoah and his 
host, who were converted into seals on their 
being overwhelmed in tne red sea.” 
“Now, Robbie put up the book — it’s time 
yon was abed, —aud then take this,” e&id his 
mother, taking up hie cough medicine. “ I’ll 
hold tfle light,’ aud Mrs. Hunter held the cur¬ 
tain aside that nuug before the ladder upon 
which they went up stairs. 
“ Better put a light in the winder, mother; it 
cheers si body right smart such a time as this,” 
said Mr. Hunter, getting the boot-jack to draw 
off his boots.

Soft floating through the air. 
And decks In friendly robes of white 
The chill earth brown and bare.

Each naked stalk it kindly shields: 
The beautiful snow, the heaven-born enow, 
t Covers the ehivering earth below.

NOTICES OF THE PItESS. 
From the Methodist, Y. City. 
We call attention to Th« Grrat American Txa Com- 
faxt. They offer extraordinary inducements to the 
consumers of the beverage which “cheer* but uotlne 
brlatea." We have tested the quality of tbelr Teas, aud, 
bo far as our experience goes, we sue prepared to say 
that they are all that Is claimed ior them. 
From the Evangelist, S. Y. City. 
The attention ot persons la directed to Tub Great 
American Tea Company, Nob. 31 aud 33 Vesey street. 
This Company have made arrangements to supply fami¬ 
lies with the choicest new crop of Black, Green, and Ja¬ 
pan Teas at wholesale prices. The Company guarantee 
all the goods they sell to give entire satisfaction. 
From the Christian Intelligencer, H. Y. Ctlg. 
The Great American Tea Comp ant.— This Company 
are aoing an Immense wholesale and retail business, and 
are thus enabled to offer their Teas and Coffees at very 
low prices, and ora quality which cannot fall to give en¬ 
tire satisfaction. 
From the American Agriculturist. 
The Great American Tea Co.—2b Querist.— Before 
admitting the advertisement, we learned that a large 
number ol our clerks and others had for several months 
been buying tbelr Tea and Coffee from this Company, 
wlthoatlts being known who they were, and that they 
had been highly pleased with their purchases, hotb as to 
quality and price, and were all recommending their 
friends to the same course. As we have received no 
complaints, we conclude “ there la no humbug about the 
establishment." 
From the N. Y. Day Booh. 
The Great American Tea Company.—A suggestion 
in relation to getting Tea at cheap rates. We know the 
articles it sells are of superior quality. The clubs are 
now all the rage, us they get Tea into the consumer’s 
hands ior about one third oil the usual price.
