MQther,' said Harrison, as he spoke with .earnestness, 'to a woman who re spects herself, a kitchen, is as .safe, a place as a parlor ; it is not the trade that gives dignity to a man or woman rr-but the man or woman i that should give dignity to the trade. If kitchen work 18 actually so lisgraceful, why did you ever go into your kitchen ?- Why did you, a Christian woman and mother, ever-let the child of another mother go there?' - Whyj my son, I don't think kitch en work disgraceful you know I don't,' replied Mrs, Grey, excitedly; 'but you know how all -ladies feel a bout it. I can't control public opin ion; and some how there is a kind of reproach attached to hired girls, and it's useless for me to attempt to get society right in that matter. There are too many kitchen girls who are not intelligent and upright, and I sup pose that is the reason tuey-stand so low.' 'Exactly so ; but where a gaod girl, . .i i ; . one in every way wortny, maKes it her choice of business, and does, day by day, the same work that you have done for years, is it right, is it just for you to" withdraw rron k mlnos" from her, because ufiw : tliv women have done the same work ''. It Is the heart that people carry into labor itself, that degenerates.' t Mrs. Grey knew her son was right, but yet she was not quite willing, or had not moral courage to acknowledge her error; so, waiving his argument, she replied : ' 'Why did she, knowing all these things, refuse all other modes of liv- old friends and bid I know vou will ing ' I should have thought she would have had more respect for us.' 'I tell you, mother, Kate had re spect, and honor for us, and for her self. You offered her a home. It would have been a home of depend ance, and the world would have said '(QTiqttia nn Tfato shf is fishincr for a nusband.' Mrs. Preston would have her sewing, but she knew that a se dentary life would not agree "wi th her, and she preferred health to a false re spectability. Father offered her a school 'And she ought to have taken it,' replied Mrs. Grey, tartly ; 'there Avas no dependance or sedentary life in that. 'Let us see about that, too. Mr. Boyd ton years ago, was the wealthi est farmer in P . lie was sent to the State Legislature, as well as to Confess, drank his wine and believed like thousands of others; that he could not fall, and like' thousands of others hft was mistaken, as I fear my dear mother, one we love will be, ere many days pass, if he doe3 not take reed The sons, tollowing the example 01 tne father, fell also money went through their hands like water. Meantime, Mrs- Boyd, almost broken hearted, .to save Kate's feelings, sent her off to school, the time I went to college- She remained three years, and then returned, to find her, father a drunk- en sot, property, all gone, and her Jahiornia, where, can wash, the Vbrand from the brow of the kitchen'girl.iw-ii vhnd yonr love for Kate, my sow, makes ydneie'tliings so strangely ; , "Xo, mother3; .niy, Jove Tor Kate makes me see things , truly. Jove is a grea t sharpener of the eyesight. ' It the fashionable and talented Charles Preston was to desert our dear Mary, simply because I choose to mary the girl of my heart, and Mary was made to suffer, as we know she would,;your love my mother, for the sufferer, would open your eyes to the wrong, and we should condemn without stint,; the base ness of the action.'" - If Kate and Julia Preston were equal in point of wealth j and position, now, mother, which would you rather have me bring home as a aaugnier : . AVell,' said Mrs. Grey,' composed ly, 'Kate was always a favorite of mine. ' ' v , 'And still you urge me to give up the fiivorite, and wed wealth land po sition ; making the bride only a kind of appendage to the rest.': 'I know it does seem "wrong in the ory ; but yefeit docs seem to me you had better give up Kate.' 'Give up my happiness and honor, because you can't brave public opin ion. Qh, mother, after all your teach ings, to advise me to such a step. 'Well, it is the way of the world.' The door bell rang and the conver sation was interrupted. Company was announced, and Harrison slipped out upon the street, to quiet his per tuvbed spirits in the moonlight. 'The v ;:y of theworld,' he mutter ed, as he passed to apd fro, before the elegant mansion that now made his home. 'My I father makes it a boast that he was ouce a, poor man, and has worked his way up: from poverty to wealth, by his own 'energy and pru dencei Yesl he makes' it his boast; but after all I think it's more luck or good fortune, or perhaps we niay say, the unexampled growth of this great country, than anything else, that has eriven us ouri position. Little dream ed he, when he, bought his farm here, that twenty years would increase its value one hundred fold. Then he look ed upon farmer Boyd as superior, and was delighted when his boy played hide and seek in the summor moon light with the Congressman's daugh ter. And mother, too, how much pains she took. Bah ! and now, that misfortune hath fallen on the house hold, and Kate, the gentle Kate, strong in the purity of her own nature, is doing the very thing that lather and mother, have all their life long taught me was right and proper and praiseworthy, I am called upon to act the paltroon and torsake her. un : it is strange how deeply rooted is this oreiudice against female labor, and particularly household labor, in tne hearts of our American people from the haughtiest aristocrat of us all, (I say us, for we lovingly profess to be a band of brothers,) who traces his proud blood back to some offshoot of nobility, down to the ignorant booby whose father was a coal heaver, and who by some sudden freak of fortune ha3 grown to a millionaire. Through every branch ot society to its most minute ramification, is this feeling found; Vice itself, if it happened to be a fashionVis not so noxious as hard labor, to the mushroon aristocracy ot without giv iprtt4iime,'to .reply to Grey's nestion . the lady replied with affected pertness i 'Notldrink wine,.Mr. Grey? How very queer; not a. teetotaleer, I.hopel' ,. Yesj a teetotaleer., -I drink no beverage stronger than pure water.' . ,'La me. I don't believe watdrwa evr jhade to drink," it's so insipid.' 'May-be Miss Leland, to those who indulge daily in high seasoned" food anrl drink f but as I do'neithery it is very delicious to my palate.' ' ' 'You, may drink it all for me,' said the proud beauty, with, a toss of Jier head evidently piqued at,the, young roan's sobriety. 'Lhave no sympathy with .those who make capital outi of tbieir weakness. A man that has hot resolution and character enough to use the ood things of this world without abusing them, is no man at all. Come, now, let me tempt you to taste , this delicious beautiful wine. Come, Mr. Grey, surely you will not refuse a la- 'Yes, even a lady cannot tempt me from what I feel is my duty.' The lady bit her lip with vexation, and Mr. Grey rose to depart. Pres ton, reallv alarmed and mortified fol lowed him to the doOr,and begged him to be silent, averring that 'the lady had met him on the street, and given him a banter which he could hot evade, kc' 'Could not evade,' said the bold and strong Harrison Grev, as he anain, with still more excited stps, strode alonr- Tf he cannnt evade now," will he be able to do - so hereafter ? f No, no ; Mary must not be ship-wrecked upon an unconcealed breaker. He begs me to be silent. He loves. Mary how can he help it. But his tone is not that strong anchor, deeply bed ded in manliness and virtue, that will hold him fast, when the whirlwind of passion overtakes him, or the rude waves ot temptation rock him to ana fro. Mary must be warned, and Charles must be saved,' if possible.' But Charles Preston was forgotten. Young Grey's-hand was upon Squire Willoughby s bell-knob, and its ener getic ding, ding, ding, forthwith an swered by the neat kitchen girl, who put all other things out of his head, and turned his physiology out to take an airing for the time being. It is not often that one meets so fine a specimen of womanhood as Kate Boyd. Not a sylph, nor yet an ama zon, nor a blpnde, nor yet a brunette. Her eyes did not sparkle with jetty blackness, nor melt away inliquid blue. Her hair was neither raven or flaxen, nor yet blue black, (as Mrs. South worth talks of.) nor golden hued, nor rich auburn ; nor falling ringlets, or done up in massive madona braids ; it was a' kind of brown. Her nose was not' Roman, -nor aquiline, nor snub ; t was iust such a nose as you would see on a friend's face and not know nartienlarlv that she had a nose : so t- j .
