Somo two or throe miles from the town of Aylesbury, England," there once lived three cousins of the family name of Bar rett. They were all married and Bottled on farms within a few miles of each otter and each of them had grown up children around them. They were nt ;rich, but in fair circumstances each had expecta tion. An eccentric uncle bad gone out to India when quite a young man, and ru - mor told them he had grown quite wealthy and would probably die an dd bachelor. Who, then, but themselves, would be heirs to his propertythey being at the time his nearest relatives ? One day the families were thrown into a trreat commotion bv each of them receiv ing a letter, which contained besides the signature and date only these words : "1 am rieh. Fools here call me a nabob. I wouldn't give that title to a cat. No matter; I shan't live always, and when 1 die my propert m usti go to son ebody. I am coming to find an heir. I am coining to see you and hope you will please me. 1 hope you are not troubled with beggars. 1 do not like to see them around." One dark, rainy night, about three weeks after the reception of these letter by the cousins, lhe family of Moses Bar rett was thrown into a state of great ex citement by the appearance at the door of two men in livery, who announced thetn relves an the avant couriers of Joshua Bar rett, of India, who would claim their bos pitality through the night. " Saying which, the messengers put spurs to their horses and dashed away, without giving the astonished listeners time to ask a single question. Now, Moses Barrett was a hunks, his wife a shrew, and his three children chips of the two blocks, but all undertook to change their natures for the time, or rath er to be ready to change them on the ap pearance of. the rich uncle for what was the use of acting with the curtain down ? "Now, Moses, you stingy old brute," said his wife, " if you know on which side your bread is ,buttered, it is to be hoped you will havoBome chickens killed for his excellency's supper, which is more'ii you did tor Christ m us, and some of that wine fetched up which you've had in the cellar since the year one, and a fire made in the - best room, that has not been there these ten years, and all your nice clothes put on that isn't much, for you'll never allow us anything decent to wear." M And it is to be hoped, old woman," re plied the angry husband, "that you'll sof ten down that screeching voice of yours, and twist your wrinkles into smiles, and that'll be something I've never seen since the first week ot our marriage." Great activity was displayed by all in gotting ready to give the uncle the best reception possible, and all rejoiced as much as a hopeful family could rejoice; that they would be first to receive a visit from him, hoping, of course, that they might fore stall all the other relations iu his m,od graces. 0 It would have been a strange way for any person to have made hi first visit but they knew the . uncle was very eccen trie, and his being so very wealthy made it all right in their eyes. He might have come and stood on his bead, provided he paid for bis antics. Iu the midst of their hurried nr.n,M. lions, there appeared at the door, an old, feeble looking, white-haired man, thinly clad, and- his soiled garments clinging to - his shriveled form. 6 .
