Among many morals wmcn press upon us from the poor min ister's miserable experience we put only this into a sentence: "Be true! Be truel Be truel Show freely to the world, if not your worst, j-et some trait whereby the worst may be inferred! At old Roger Chillingwortb's decease (wbicb took place within the year), and by bis last will and testament, of which Governor Bellingham and the Reverend Mr. : Wilson were executors, he be queathed a very considerable amount of property, both here and in England, to little Pearl, the daughter of Hester Prynne. So Pearl the elf child, thedemoa off spring, as some people up to that epoch persisted in considering her became the richest heiress of her day in the New World. Not improbably this circum stance wrought a very material change in the public estimation, and had the mother and child remained here little, Pearl, at a marriageable period of life, might have mingled her wild blood with I the lineage of the devoutest Puritan among them all. But in no long time after the physician's death the wearer of the scarlet letter disappeared, and Pearl along with her. For many years, though a vaguo re port would now and then find its way across the sea like a shapeless piece of driftwood tossed ashore with the initials of a name upon it yet no tidings of them unquestionably authentic were re ceived. The story of the scarlet letter grew into a legend. Its spell, however, was etill potent and kept the scaffold awful were the poor minister had died. and likewise the cottage by the seashore. where Hester Prynne had dwelt. Near this latter spot one afternoon some chil dren were at play, when they beheld a tall woman in a gray robe approach the cottage door. In all those years it had never once been opened ; but either she .unlocked it or the decaying wood 'and iron yielded to her hand, or she glided ehadowlike through these impediments and, at all .event,, went in, OS the threshold she paused turned partly around for perchance tho idea of entering all alone and all so changed the home of so intense a former life was more dreary and desolate than even she could bear. But her hei-iUition was only for an instant, thorurh long cnorigh to display a scarlet letter on h?r hror-st. And Hester Prynne had returned and taken up her long forsaken shamo! Bat where was little Pearl? If still olive. she must now have been in the fiufih and bloom of early womanhood. None knew nor ever learned, with the full ness of perfect certainty whether the elf child had gone thus untimely to a maiden grave, ot whether her wild, rich nature' had been softened and subdued and made capable of a woman's gentle happiness. But through the remainder of Hester's bfe there were indications that the recluse of the scarlet letter was the object of love and interest with some inhabitant of another land. Let ters came with armorial seals npon them, though of bearings unknown to English heraldry. In the cottage there were articles of comfort and luxury snch as Hester never cared to use, but which only wealth could have purchased and affection have imagined for her. There were trifles too little ornaments, beautiful tokens of a continual remembrance that must have been' wrought by delicate fingers, at the impulse of a fond heart. And once Hester was seen embroidering a baby garment, with such a lavish rich- f nesa of golden fancy as would have raised a public tumult had any infant thus' appareled been shown to our sober hued community.' - hr fine, the ..gossips o that day be lieved and Mr. Surveyor ' Pue,' who made investigations a ientury later, be lieved, and one of bis successors in ofiice, moreover, faithfully believes that Pearl was not only alive, but "married and happy and mindful of her -mother, and that she would most joyfully have en tertained that sad and - lonely mother at her fireside. , But there was a more real life for Hester Prynne ; here, inr New England. than in that unknown region where Pearl had found . a home. Here had been ber sin; bere her sorrow, and, .here was yet to be ; her - penitence. She bad f returned,', therefore, - and' resumed of her own free will, for pot, the sternest magistrate "of that iron period, would have imposed it resumed the symbol of which we . have related - so "dark a tale. Never afterward did it quit ber bosom: But'pm vtbelapseof -the toilsome." thoughtful and. self devoted ' years, that made up Hester's life,- the". scarlet letter ceased to be a stigma which , attracted ' the world's scorn and bitterness, and be- Hayod forvetbefsaidtbe-min- ister. "Thou, too, bast deeply sinned." He withdrew hia dying -eyea froin the old man and fixed them on the woman and the child. -- . "My little Pearl," said he feebly and there was a sweet and gentle smile over his face, as of a spirit sinking into deep repose;! nay, now that - the burden was J removed, it seemed almost as- if be would be sportive with the child "dear little Pcarli wilt thou kiss me now? Thou wouldst not yonder in the forestl But Bow thou .wilt?" Pearl kissed his lips. A spell was broken. The great scene of grief, in which tbe wild infant bore a part, bad. developed all her sympathies; and as her tears fell upon ber father's cbeek, they were, the pledge that she would grow up amid human joy and sorrow, nor for ever do battle with the world, but be a woman in it. Toward her mother, too, Pearl's errand as a messenger of anguish was all f ulfilled. . "Hester," Baid tbe clergyman, "fare welir "Shall W6 not meet again?" whispered she, bending her face down close to his. "Shall we not spend " our immortal life together? Surely, 6urely, we have ran somed each other, with all this woe! Thou lookest far into eternity with those bright, dying eyes! Then tell me what thou seest?" "Hush, Hester, hush!" said he with tremulous solemnity. "Tbe law we broke the sin here so awfully revealed let these alone be in thy thoughts! 1 fear, I. fear! ltmay be-that when we forgot our Ood when we violated our revereuce each for the other's soul it was thenceforth vain to hope that we could meet hereafter in an everlasting and pure reunion God knows, and he is mercif uL He hath proved his mercy most of all in my afflictions.

By bring ing me hither to die this death of tri umphant ignominy before the peoplel Had 'either cf these agonies been want ing, I had been lost forever! Praised be his name! Hia wijl be done!

So said Hester Prynne, and glanced her sad eyes downward at the- scarlet letter. And after many, many years a new grave-was delved near an old and sunken one in that bnrial ground Reside which King's chapel has 6ince been built It was near that old and suukeu grave, yet with a space between, as if the dust of the two sleepers had no right to mingle. Yet one tombstone served for both. All around there were monu ments carved with armorial bearings, and on this simple slab of slate, as the curious investigator may still discern and perplex himself with tbe purport there appeared the semblance of an en graved escutcheon- It bore a device, a herald's wording of which might serve for a motto and brief description of our now concluded legend, so somber is it and relieved only by one everirlowing point of light gloomier than the shadow.

After many days,, when time, sufficed for the people to arrange their thoughts in reference to the foregoing scene, there" was more than one account of what had been witnessed on the scaffold Most of the spectators testified to hav ing seen on the breast of tbe unhapp minister a scarlet letter the very sem blance of that worn by Hester Prynne imprinted in the flesh. As regarded its origin, there were various explanations, all of which must necessarily have been conjecturaL Some affirmed that the Reverend Mr. Dimmesdale, on the very day when Hester Prynne first Wore her ignominious badge, had begun a . course of penace, whieh he afterward in. so many futile methods followed out, by inflicting a hideous tojire on himself. Others contended that thetigma had not been produced, until a long time subsequent, when old Roger Chilling worth, being a potent necromanceTr, had caused it to appear through the agency of magic and poisonous drugs-" Others, again and those best able to appreciate the minister's -peculiar isensibibty . and the wonderful; operation of -bis spirit upon the body-T-whispored their belief that the awful symDoi was the effect of tbe ever active tooth of . remorse, gnaw ing from the inmost heart outwardlyf and at last ..manifesting heaven's dread ful judgment by the visible presence of the letter. " The v reader may chodse among these theories.' We have thrown all the' light we could acquire npoin the - portent, and - would gladly, now that it has done its office, erase 'its deep print out of: our own brainf where long medi tation has-: fixed ;it in' very undesirable distinctness. . . .. . - H It is singular, nevertheless, thatcertain persons, who were spectators of the whole scene and . prof essed never once to have removed their .eyes from the Reverend Mr. Dimmesdale,- denied . that there was any mark whatever on his breast more than - on a newborn infant s. Neither! by their report, had his dying words ac knowledged nor even1 remotely implied ny,-the slightest, connection on hia part with the guilt ; for, which Hester Prynne had bo "long; worn the scarlet .letter. According to these highly respectable witnesses,, the '.minister? conscious ".that Biblical Recorder. There is a very marked tenden cv now, especially on the rart of yonng men to leave tbe country, and the farm, and drift to tbe cit ies. More or less of this may be expected at all times; but after all, ! is tbe rapid growth of this habit beet for the young men, the cilie?, and the country at large? Amer ica has since its settlement been largely an agricultural country. There seems to be something in the life of the farmer that devel ops a sturdy aud virtuous type of manhood, and we can but hope that the day is far in the future that our people ?hall cease to he noted as an agricultural people. To our young men, then, who are growing, weary wuii what mey call the rara drum of country, aud especially farm life, we would say, be very slow in deciding to leave tbefarurfor the city. All pur suits have their trials and their worries. Farm life has its trials, but after all it is the most inde pendent life a man can live. One great advantage conuected with life on the farm is found in the fact that those who lead it are gen erally stout and healthy. Many a pale and debilitated merchant or resident of the city would give the accumulated wealtb of years for the robust health and vigor of the young man on tbe farm. Then, again, as we Lave just iutirnated, there are fewer temptations thrown in the way of young men in tbe country than in the city. To en joy life, one must have a good ap petite, must be able to sleep well at night, must have a clear con science, and good morals. If be is a Christian hiscapaclty to enjoy life is greatly increased. If a man has theee blessing he " certainly ought to 1 e content with his lot. .Godliness with contentment is great gain' says an inspired apostle, and one can often more readily realize tbe force of this language in leading of life that has a tendency to promote both of these graces. If the yoong man, then, has anything like a fair showing, let him stick to the farm. Many have learned by sad experi ence the force of these words by Eu gene Field: J"--- J ;" , .4-"'v'-.

Ah old lawyer sent him with animportant paper, with certain instructions what to do with it. But," inqnired the young man, suppose I should lose it; what shall I do thenr1 Yon must not lose it." I don't mean to," said the young man, i4bnt suppose I should fM But I say, you, must not; I shall make no provision for snch an occurrence. You must not lose it." This put a new train of thought into the young man's mind, and be found that if he was determin ed to do a thing he could do it. lie made such a provision against every contingency that he never lost anything. lie found this equally true about forgetting. If a certain matter of import ance was to be remembered, he pinned it down on his mind aud fastened it there and made i stay. lie used to say, "When v man tells me that he forgot to do something, I tell him he might have said, 'I do not care enough about your business to take the trouble to think about it again." I once had an intelligent young man in .my employment who deemed it sufficient excuse for neglecting any important task to say, 4I forgot it." I told him that it would not answer. If he was sulliciently interested he would be careful to remember. It was because he did not care enough that he forgot it. I drill ed him with this truth. lie worked for me three years, and during the last of the three be was utter ly changed in this respect. lie did not forget a thing.
