TIIK DAILY JOURNAL. .WILMINGTON, X. C. SUNDAY, MAIICU 01, 1BG7 TIIE ECCENTRIC NABOB. Some two or thrro miles from tho littlo town tI Aylesbury, gland, there once lived three cousins, of tho family nnmo of Barrett. They were all married and set tied on farms, within t few miles of each other, ana each of them bad grown up children around them. They were not rich, but iu fair circumstances, each had expectations." An occentrxo unelehadgone but to India, wlleo quito a young man, and rumor told them that ho had becomo very wealthy, and would probably die a bachelor Who, then, but themselves, would be heirs to his property ? they being, at tho time, his nearest kin. One day tho three families were thrown into great commotion by each or them re ceiving a letter which contained, besides date and signature, only these word : " I am rich. Fools hero call mo a nabob, I would 'nt give such n title to a cat. No matter I shan't livo always and when die my property must go to somebody, nm coming to England to find an heir. ahull come and boo you, and hopo you will please mo. I hopo you . nro not troublet with beggars. I do not like to eeo them about." One dark, rainy night, about threo weeks nfter tho reception of these letters by the cousins, tho family of Moses Barrett was thrown into ft great state of excitement by tho appearance at tho door of two men in livery, who announced themselves as the nvant couriers of his excellency, Joshua IJorrett, of India, who would cljSm their hospitality for tho night, baying which, the messengers put spurs to the horses and dashed ftway, without giving tho astonished listeners time to ask even a single question. Now Moses Barrett was a hunks, his wife hhrewd, and his throe children chips of the two blocks, - but all undertook to change their natures for the timo or rather, to be ready to chango them on tho appearance of the rich uncle, for what was the mo ol acting with tho curtain down. " Now, Mose, you stingy old brute," said his wifo, "If you know on which side your bread's buttered, it's - to bo hoped you'll have some chiokens killed for his excel lency's supper, which is moro'n you did for Christmas, and some of that wino fetched up that you'vo had in the cellar since the year one, and a fire made in the best room, that hasn't been there this tun years : and all our nice clothes put on that ain't much for you'd never allow us nothing decent to wear." " And it 13 to bo hoped, old woman," re torted tho angry husband, "that you'll soften down that screeching voice of yours, and twist your wrinkles into emiles, and that'll b something I've never seen bince the first week of our marriage." Great activity was displayed by all in getting ready to give the rich uncle the best reception possible, and all rejoiced, as much as such a hopeful family could re joice, that tht-y would be the first to receive a visit from him hoping, of course, that they, might thus forestall the other rela tions in his good graces. It would have been a strange way for any other person to havo made his first visit ; but, then, they knew the uncle was very eccentric, and his being so very wealthy made it all right in their eyes. He might come and stand on his head, provided ho paid for his antics. - In the midst of their hurried prenura tions, there appeared at the door an old, feeble looking, white-haired man, thinly clad, and with his soaked garments cling ing to bis shriveled form. "Will you be kind enough, good people," he said, "to give me something to eat, and a place to sleep to-night ? ' We'vo got nothing to spare ! and if we had, we don't harbor beggars 1 " replied the master of the house, in a coarse, brutal tone. "But I'm old, and feeble, and hungry, ana wet, and tired," said the aged appli cant, in a pleading tone, " and if you drive me away, i may perish," . " Well, that's what you ought to have done long ogo," put in tho cross dame. " W hoa people got too lazy to work for an honest living, and start out begging, it's my opinion they're better dead nor alive. Besides, we expect com Dan v soon a. rich gentleman from India and hain't got no room for the uxes of you.' " Well, then," returned tho old man, with a sorrowful look, "sinco you can t keep me over night, will you pleaso give me something: to eat, and I'll go further." The dame broucrht up a piece of brown broad, with an angry look, and was about to hand it to the mendicant, more for the purpose, as it seemed, of getting nd of him than from any feeling of compassion, , but her miner ly husband interposed, and said sharply t " old you we hadn't notliing for yon, ana so travel on I . "I'll set the dog on you if you don't, you old beggar I" cried a lad of ten. "My rich uncle's coming here to-night, and he ( can't bear beggars ; so you had bettor be going while your bones are whole 1 " May heavenbe more merciful than you," sighed the old man, as he turned and dis appeared in the darkness. Lcme ha f an hour l?ter, ha knocked at 3 . . vt tm' (ri VI the nephews, nnl aked for food and lodg- j "It isn't convenient for us to keep you i to-nipht," Buid the tofistcr of tho house, in a mild, dignified tone. "Besides, wo don t like to encourage beggars. If yon aro poor and not aMe to work, tho parish whrre j ou belong in lxrand to support too. No ohd need starvo in. this country, ubich the Lord, praised be His name, has so bounti fully blessed. 1 trust I am not wanting in charity as an humble follower of the Lord Jesus Christ, I hope I cm not but .what with taxes for tho support of tho govern ment and tho poor, donations to benevolent societies and heathen missions, it is as much us I can do to livo and give my, fam ily a respectablo maintenance. Now, my friend, if you cro poor, and not ablo to work, (though I don't see why you may not work as well as travel,) you hud better throw yourself on the parish where yon e- I. ng. But I nra tired, wet and hungry," said the old man, "and all the parishes in the world can't do mo nny good to-night." But yon should have thought of that before you left home," now chimed in the good housewife, with a sanctified air. "It is sinful to tempt Providence, as it is called ; and whoever sins must expect punishment never go o way without providing: for the journey, and, of course, I don t expect any body to feed and shelter me for nothing. . It is a sin, too, to bo idlo when one is able to work, and it is against my principle, as a true Christian, 'to encourage any cne in sinning. . . " Then, I suppose, I m to understand that you refuse mc both food and lodging," said tho old man. "As to food," said the pious dame, glan cing at her husband, "If you aro very hun gry, I suppose we can do'someting in that way ; but lodgjng is out of tho question for two mounted couriers have been here to say that a very rich uncle of ours from India will bo here very soon'; and ho wrote some time ago, that ho didn't like to havo beg gars about where he was, and we wouldn't like to offend him. True, we hardly expect ho will come to-night ; but, then, he might, you know, and we wouldn't like to run any risks." . . ; " Well, then," said the old men with; a high, "I will take the food, if yon please, and go on, even if I perish." " Put your trust in tho Lord, my friend, Jut your trust in the Lord !" said Stephen Jarrett, solemnly. . ; -"Yes," echoed his wife, "put your trust in the Lord ! that is what we do when in trouble Sarah Jane, go down in the cellar and bring up a couple of those cold pota toes for this 0I4 man they are very good eating when ono is huDgry I like them myself. Yes, put your trust in the Lord 1 and don't leave home again without means. By-the-by, while I think of it," added the good woman, laying down a cap-frill, on which she bad been busily at' work while talking, and look up with a bright twinkle of her eyes, "I do believe you can get a good night's lodging at Horry Barrett's, who lives only half n mile from here, on the road south, ne's a great hand for taking in strangers." . -: ' t She looked at her husband, and both smiled knowingly, for both were thinking that in coso the rich uncle should find the beggar there, it might increaso Stephen Barrett s chances of being the fortunate heir. Sarah Jane now returned and handed the old man two littlo cold potatoes. He took them, turned them slowly over, examined them on all sides, and murmured : " They havo eves but can they see ? I think not for if they could they'd blush red, instead of keeping such a dark color." 1 hen glancing slowly around the neat, ti dy, cheerful room, taking in three prime girls and their pious parents, he quickly tossed tho potatoes into the lap of tho as tonished mistress, saying as he did so, " I beg your pardon, madam, but I did not in tend to rob you." " Uh, you sinful, wicked. old creature ! exclaimed the good dame, in holy horror, as the disgusted old man turned and went out and f-hut tho door with a slam. In less than half an hour the unfortu nate wayfarer was trying his chances at the house of Henry Barrett. J "Uomo in," said a strong, hearty, cheer ful voice, in answer to his timid knock. He entered a large, plainly furnished apartment, and beheld a group of six per sonsfather, mother, two sons, and two daughters seated around a pleasant fire, with a bright light on the table near them, and all looking contented and happy. On seeing his visitor was an old man and a stranger, the master of the house arose and invited him to walk forward and take a seat, and all the others drew back respect fully, to enlarge the circlo and the best place at the fire. give him " I have called, said the old man, stop ping and removing his hat from his white head, " to ask if you wold be kind enough to crive me some food and lodging for the night." ! Of course we will, my mend, and glad of the chance to help a fellow in need !" said Henry Barrett, in a fiank, cordial tone. " Sit down and make yourself at homo ! Here, give me your hat ! Come, girls, hurry up something warm for the old gentleman, who is wet, tired, and chilled through, as I can readily see. xou ought not to havo been out po late in this storm, father!" - "No, I know," returned tho old gentle man, holding his trembling hands to the fire, " but tho person which I applied to, wonldn t take me m. " What !" refuse lodging to an old man like you on such a night, in this Christian community I" excliimed . tho indignant host " Vho were the inhospitable wretch es ?" - - The man described the house and people where he bad called. "I seel". said the host, with a grim smilo ; "I anderstand ! The first .family kicked you out ?" . , ; " Almost " The second family prayed you out !" j "Almost," again smiled the stranger. " Well, they are both relations of mine, but I am ashamed to own them." tho old man, " that they were expecting a rich uncle from India, who wonldn t like to see a beggar about" " ; N "Aye, my friend, and we are expecting the same rich uncle, too an eccentric old bachelor, who says he wants to make one of us heir to his vast possessions. Two gaily mounted messengers arrived this even ing, to say he would be here to-night, or to-morrow, probably the latter. But when ever he does come, he will find us as we are ; and if he don't like oar looks, Or the company we keep, he can take himself off again."--- - Nay, my friend' said the aged stran ger, rising in some trepidation, "do not for the world, let my preseuca jeopardize your interests with your rich kinsman! I will merely get something to eat, and travel on till I find another logding." - - ? , 'No jou: T-caV ll&rry. Barrett, bluntly. . " Y'ou won't leave this house to- j night, for all the uncles that all the Indies j can turn out 1 Sit . down ; again, sir, - kit -down end make yourself at home !'

I can't eat - it. nor drink it, nor : wefr it, nor carry it into the other world ; ond I'm sure it wouldn't bring mo any hap piness that I don't now enjoy, and I know it couldn't ever compensate me for one mean action. No ! Let Joshua Barrett settle his money as he chooses i '11 arrange my conscience to euit myself." " God bless you ! murmured tho old man,' in a trembling voice, and bowing Lis head upon his hands, he wept in silence, remained at that hospitable house during the night, and was entertained like an honored oruett. The nest hy being fair, ho took his leave : as he was about to j depart, Harry Barrett put a crown into his hand, sayiug : " Take it, my friend, and not a word ! I don't know who you are, and I've cot felt it my duty to inquire : but tins I know from your appearance, mannere, and lan guage that you are not a common beggar and that vou have seen better days, which I sincerely hope you may see again. It's as much as my circumstances will justify, and it may, perhaps, eerve to keep you from starving some night, or sleeping by the wavside, "God will repay yon !" snid the old man, solemnly ; and he walked slowly away, wiping the tears from his eyes. "He has already 1" mused Harry Barrett. placing his hand upon his heart. "I have it here principal and interest." Long, and in vain, did the selfish fami lies of Moses and Stephen Barrett look for the appearance ol their rich uncle from In dia in a carriage and four, and great -was their disappointment and vexation thereat. Then came the intelligence that he- was sick in London. Next camo the news that he was dead, and had left a will. What an intense desire to know tho contents of that will! What awid, furious excitement when its contents became known ! To Moses Barrett ho devised one pound to buy a coffin for the dog that his precious son had threatened to set on a beggar. To Stephen Barrett he had bequeathed one pouud three pence? the pound to be levoted to the parish poor the three pence buy cold potatoes for beggars, with the hope-that ho and his pious family wonld put theili trust in the Lord. To Heliry Barrett, and his heirs forever, he had wuted all the remainder of his vast wealth, some half a million pounds sterling, with a hope that he and they would some times recall with pleasure the visit of the old, white-haired man they had once m kindly entertained. The old beggar of that dark, rainy-night. was no other than Joshua Barrett himself ! j GENERAL DIRECTORY. ; C ITY OPFICKKH Mayor John Dawson.
