There wasn't sueli auotlier in the town, nor in any other town, Just show us his niateh. name your price, and the money is yours. Almost evei-yhoJy called him '-Dodd's Ifiy," (alllioiijth Dodd himself called him 8am) s,i with us pjdd sboy I. it it be. How lie could yell ! In the wild prai ries of the West there wasn't an Indian, who, on hearing Dodd's boy's yell, Wuuld not have been ashamed of his owu weak war-whoop. l!ut lie wasn't always noisy. I lis voice could be low, nod sweet, and ten derfor a bundle of contradictions wan this boy of Dodd's. A sharp one, too, was Dodd's boy. You ouldu't pull any wool over his eyes! People said to do that, "one would have to pet up mighty early in the luoiuiuL'." The truth was one could nut have done it even if had stayed up all night ! Dodd's boy was as wide awake as wide awa!.e could be! There was no km, wing where to have bim. Acro.s the street a moment ago uow yilling al your v.ry heels and, ,pii, kcr than you can turn round, across the street again, laughing to burst his sides. lie wasu't a bad fellow, though ibis boy of Dodd's don't think it ! lie never did a mean ,,r eru.'l thing in his life. All the dogs and eats iu the neighborhood like him, and D..d,l himself said he wasworlh his weight iu gold; which was praise in deed; for ho was the village butcher, and bad tak, u the boy out of ebaiity, aud was very hard to please. Dodd's boy was in l,,ve. Yon needn't laugh! What light minded lad has no place in his Inart for some pretty little fairy? Show him to us, let u.i look at him, and se how quickly wo will show you. that be is a fraud, and n'-t ri-bt-niiud'd. Ilisf.dry's naiue was Dolly, and she wns Dodd's daughter. Alter seeing lur you never would have blamed the I, iy for loving bet. Why attempt to diwribe lu r? I'eu of inurlal n.uld n, t do it. Imagine her as sweet as and pretty as you please, an 1 you c ioiiot do her justice ! Dedd lived away from h's shop, in a lit tle. Iw, - (,,ry cottage, just out.-ide the town.

' Dolly's s ing and Dolly's Voice at that hour ! His heart beat faster. It took a great leap! Iu three jumps he was at the head of the stairs, in three more at the foot. Iu a few seconds be was iu the open air, pray ing to (loll, to snve her. There, elad in her night dress, upon the roof of the hon.se stood Dolly. For the m uncut the sight made Dodd's boy powerless, lie shuddered as he snw Dolly begin to walk along the very edge. The danger which had benumbed bun, brought him to himself. Dodd's boy was quite a reader, and, rctneuiberiug what he read, knew u tiling or two! She was walking in her sleep there could not be no doubt to that. He had read once that to cry out to one walk ing iu sleep is dangerous. There was but one way he counted the danger of himself nothing. "I must walk below her," ho thought "The roof is not high, and, if she falls, 1 can save her from these cruel bricks. It doesn't make any difference if I do get hurt. Fine fellow, Dodd's boy. Hack and forth her little feet boro her along the roof's edge; and below, exactly beneath her, walked the boy. After a little she stood still again mid sang. With a feeling that was almost one of awe, he listened to her, it Was sad to sec her thus so near to danger and perhaps to deuth ! sad to hear that sweet voice, which ! in a moment might be stilled forever! and she so unconscious of it all ! When the song died away, as Kolian harps still with the dying wind, she turned and disappeared. Dodd's boy heard her stepping to the other side of the roof. In all agony uf fear he ran around. Not an instant too soon ! ( Ino step too far and she fell. Hut into his aruis ! into his arms 1 The shock bore him to the ground, and he felt teirible pain in his arms that had saved her. Dolly's shrieks aroused her fat her, who. coining quickly out, held her soothingly to his breast. Hut what of Dodd's boy? He lay there, striving to keep back the groans that would come. He had saved the child; but poor feilow ! both of bis arms were broken ! When they bore him in, and laid him tenderly, so tenderly, upon the best lied iu the house, and 1 l.-lly wept over him, be did not n.i,.d the pain so much; when Mr. Dodd said he was a lo m, be felt quite preii'l; tuiel wlieii the doctor mine, iiini the broken limbs were set and Dolly said that she would be his nurse till he was strong and well again, be felt happy and content. Indeed she kept her promise! Though he was helpless, and ofu n in much pain, those das passed like a pleasant dr am. Wars alter wh, n he was a wan brer from that home and her, the swwt face lhat had w,-pl and laughed with him was mir rored iu his heart. There is more to tell. They, with hearts so dry as to laugh al l..ve, had beihT tiun uwuy. The broken arms healed and became strong and shapely again. The time e.mie, a sad lime to all of them, wh.'ii lb" boy b it Dodd d Dodd's dallgli!, I. and went into the great world to seek his fortune. He louiid it too! but found no forget fulness of his child love. No long, r Dodd's boy, but a uiau who had made a name to be proud of, he re turned to look upon the face of his fairy , n ee in,, re. Wloi.luca!h,l he asked: Is Mr. Ddd in ? No. Mr. IM I hid ' Jii-t slei lied t ut for a liitl-' while," IsMi-sDoddin?" The formal Mist D.4d almost stuck bis ibroat. Yes, she was in. He sent up his card. Wa-ii'1 that funny! Dodd's boy send ing up a card ! "What will the meeting b.i like?" he thought, as he waited f,,r her. ''Now that slo' is a young lady, will there be any of the cbil ii-b heartiness of old in her iii in ni r? Or will she have gioau beyond and fei-etl'ul of lie!? " And Ddd' b ,y til it was, sighed ! Wh 'n she enters the room he is ashiiuiid of bis doubt. She h ilds out l o ll hands lo him with such a smile of web- une that be fancies he sees the D .ly of old ! S mn Dodd eoiii 's in, and gives his lk-iity greeting. Like the sensible, sympathetic mm he is, afitr a little while he says: "I must really go to bed." Bo be goo. Dodd's boy that was, aud the eld!d Dolly that was, the noble man and woman who are, are alone again. You may guess what be said to her the question hi; asked her w earnestly.

As many persons want to know how to tell fortunes by the hind, "just for the fun of the thing," the following brief direitions will suffiee to enable any reader to emu latj the prowess of the gypsies in an art which is held to be peculiarly their own. Begin wilh the line of life, skirting from a point an inch below the bottom of the first linger and tracing it to its termination at the base of the thumb. If well defined and unbroken, it is said to denote lung liie; if cut and intersected by oilier lines, ill uess. Kvcry inch of the line uf life is supposed to stand for ten years, and a dis tinct break at any point indicates death at that nge, estimated by its distance from the starting point of the line. The line of the head, or, as it is some times called, "the line of intellect,', is the next tiling to he lookul lor. It sw, ops horizontally across the palm, starting sim- uhaiiooiisly with the line of life. If clear an 1 unbroken, it is supposed to indicate a logical intellect. If much uotched, wilh lines entering it from other parts, it iudi, ates that this intellect may run into many fan cies; us for instance, if the lines enter from the base of the middle finder the tastes wilt run to weird books or to solitary scheming. The line above the last named, running from belweeu the bases of the first and second linger to the base of the little fin g t, is tin- line of the heart, iudiciting so ciability and affection. When much bro ken and intersected, it means that the own er will hi the slave of his or her passions, especially those passions whieh are dosii' niled as ''tender ' or erotic. It is usually the most broken and irregular of nil Hie lines of the hand, on which account the ancient pilmists probably selected it. The line which runs perpendieulaily I'l.iiii the root of the second linger to the wrist is called the line of fortune, and the more broken and irregular this is the bet ter for the possessor. If these broken and added lines are g'-n.'ra!ly parallel to the original lino they denote streaks of good luck or good fortune; if they cut it across they denot" '-crosses" or "inn and downs" iu life, ruforlunately, the lat ter is the rule. The "mounts" are the little flleshy prom inences at the roots of the fingers aud be tween the joints. At llie foot of the lit linger is the mount of .I.i;,i!er; th s-c uid issacrel (,, Satiiru, the third to tin Sun and the liith; linger to Mercury. Below the latter and on the right side of the hau l is llie hill of M ies; still ftirlh T be low is the hill of ih" .,ii Of these .Iu piter is propitious, Saturn ni-aus ill luck, the Sun riches, Mercury knavisluiess ami "smartness;" Mars war or military genius, aud the M.hiii moodiness, crankiness or a tendency to philosophical speculations. According to the extent lo which the lines in th 'sc "mounts" are marked and the pr iiiiin -nee of the "tn-iuiils" 'heuiselc's. the eb iraet.'risiies and fortnn-- ol the indi vidual are tore!,, Id.

F.Min the riuirl'ittL' Chronicle. We find what we seek ! "If you'll pick the daisies, I'll weave the ebaius, wc.s the merry suggestion of a fair and cut by hailed little miss to a blown and ruddy- checked hoy. That was eighteen years ugo. The boy is a man now and llie little black eyed miss has passed over the river of, leaih. It is ovcl thus, we have often thought; llie man as well as the boy picks the daisies; the woman as well us the girl weaves the chains, and the daisies ur white and the links are golden, no matter h iw old we grow. We find only those things we are look ing for; we receive pleasure only as our h 'iirls and natures respond to sights and annuls. 'I'he savage can S"e more to ad mire in the structure of bis bow and wig warn, than in the most perfect modern en gine of war, or in the Cathedral of St, I'atil. The world contaiu both sorrow and gladness, and he who looks only for trouble, only trouble will he liul; h i is afraid to enjoy the blessiues that even he emiiot fail to see, for fear of sum,; calami ty in the future. The scriptural injunc tion, "take no thought for the things of the morrow," and "sullieient unto the day is the evil thereof," have little meaning to him. We, with all of our diversities, are joined in a common pursuit, we are all seeking happiness; but what constitutes happiness for one miht he far, far from it for another. When .lohti Quim y Adams wrote "man wants but little here below, nor wants that little long," be bad little knowledge of the present age. Had he said: "Man's always wanting here below, and he wants all ho can get," be would have come infinitely nearer the truth. Hut Dope sums up all our happiness iu few words when he says : "Tlint only virtue Inukcs our Miss l,tlw Anil all our kiixwle-luc Is nurselves to know." A contented, happy disposition is then one of the most desirable gifts wilh which a man can be endowed; a nature whose sunshine pervades all with which it comes in contact, just as the small pebble stirs the waters of the lake. There from the centre a cir -le spreads and lir-t entrances parents and IrieteN, and gradually bioao ening it finally lakes in all mankind, and such a nature is plucking daisies ull along the pathway of life aud weaving lln uiinto a chain of happiness Such a nature is a never failing murce of happiness, for "We revive tint wlutt wi -yive; 111 our lives uluilc lines nature live.' lf we seek happiness we will most as suredly find it; just as the converse istrue. Religion is highly profitable, even for this life, as well as the lite to conic, secur ing to us the best advantages here, and what is infinitely more important, the best advantages hereafter advantages real, satisfying, sure, and everlasting. It hurts not; it can ant hurt any of our true and proper interests upon earth. It sli, updates industiy: it el urages application; il en forces the practice of all llie social and moral virtues; it will cii.hle us to enjoy the advantages of liie with the highest plen-iii'o. for "her ways are the ways of pleasant -less," as well as ways of bouor and pr.iti'..

A rare instance of the fidelity of two colored men to their former nnsi, r has just come to the public atleniion iu Wilkinson e.iunty. Before the war one of the proud est slave owners iu that section was Col. Downing lie was owner of large traels of land, as well as a number of slaves. When the troubles of lHi',11 eame on he was olio of i he rankest secessionists iu the country. The struggle left him land puor; acre by a, re he sold it off, being unable to s tiare himself with (he new old, r ol tiling". At last, w hen all bis land was g-'iie and bis family dead, he was nlllicted with blindness, and was iu danger of being put iu the county poor house. "They must not do that wilh old mas ter," said .loo Downing, doe and bis brother I'eler were slaves of Col Downing before the war, aud always went under his name. While their old master was going down in the world these two Colored men were hard at work and saving money. They purchashed 1. 'ill acres of rich land, built thereon a comfortable house, accum ulated live stock and iarmiiig implements and had good credit ut the bank here. To this liuiue ibey touk their old master, installed htm in the best rooms and com pelled all the people around lo trcut him wilh the utmost respect. Lately Colonel Downing has been fearing that his death was approaching, niul seemed to be fearful that be iniebt be buried us a pauper, To case his mind on this matter the brothers have just deposited in the bank here SI Oil, to be b bl until til- old nun'- ! i h. with which to piy a'l fimer.tl expenses. KEEP AHEAD. One of thegrand secrets of success in life is to keep ahead in all ways possible. If you ouce fall bchiud, il may be vciy dif ficult to make up the headway which is lost. One who begins with pulling aside some part of bis earnings, however small and keeps it up f.,r a numb, r years, is likely to become rich before he dies. One who inherits property, and goes on year by year, spending a little more than bis ill'.- tlie. will bee,, in'.' poor II' be lives I llg enough. Living bey nd ll, ir -ueaus has br-ught niu'titiides of persons to rain in our generation. It is the e-i use of niui tenlbsollhedefalealiousih.it have dis graced the age Hanker- and Lu-iu.'ssni' n tlo not olicii help ih, mselvis to other p, 0 pie's money until I heir own fund b -gins lo fall oil", and their expenditures exceed their receipts. A man who is in debt walks in the midst of pints. It cannot but impair a man's self-respect to know that he is liviug at the extense of others. It is ulso very desirable that we should keep somewhat ahead in our worV. This may u ,t be possibl. in all cases, as. f,,r instance, when a man's work is as signed to certain fixed hours, like that of the liiieratives in a mill- Hut there nro eertaiu classes of ,eo'pl. B ";o can choose their I hue for the work which they are called to do, and amongst them some who invariably put ofl'iheta-k assigned thcul as 1 uig as pos-ilile, and then come to its per formance hurried, perplexed, anxious, t-on-I used in sin b a state of mind as certain" ly unfits them for doing their best w. rk. liet ahead and kuip ahead, and your suc cess is tolerably sure.

"Well, il'iny memory serves me, I met you tit Saratoga about five years ago, and I should like to know if you can swell 10 any expr- s-ion I then made. "I can." "Now Mr. J , I want you to remember that you are under oath. Now, under oalh, you swear that you can quote wilb great accuracy a remark 1 made to you at Saratoga five years ago ?" "I cm." "Well, what was it ?" "Y,,u met me in the hotel corridor." "Yes, quite correct." "And you shook hands with me." "Naturally I did." "Amlyou said to ui.: 'Let's goan I take HollietlllUi:.'
