knock at the door. Farmer WUliams o
pene.l it, revealing u respectable, rwddle
Mgedctdored man, w i.o held carefully in
Lis hand a covered basket.

"She does."
"The lady who bmied a child yester

"Uelf, LereV a -2 c'iSFe'se'fi'nor
her."
Thrnsiing the basket into the farmer's
hands, ho turned and walked quickly
down the road, where could be dimiv seeu
tiie outlines til" a covered sleigh, from w hich
came the faint sounds of t-tidul sobs. Be
wildered and astonished, farmer Williams
carried the basket into the kitchen and s
it upon, the table. As he did so, be was
startled by a plaintive cry, and upon, open
ing it there lay n lovely boy apparently
about three mouths old. "' -r
Farmer Williams sprang to the door,
but the eleigh and its occupants were no
where to be seen. In the meantime Mrs.
Williams and her children gathered around
the basket with exclamations of surprise
and pleasure. As the babe saw the sweet
face that bent over it, it smiled,' and taking
it in her arms the good woman pressed it
fondly to her bosom. Just" then her hus
bund came back from his fruitless search.
."I declare, it's an imposition!" he ex
claimed, stamping the snow otfi his boots,
"lint 1 won't submit to it. I'll take it
over to the town farm the very lirst thing
in the morning." f
"I can't bear the idea of it going there,
John," said his wife. "Just see what a
sweet bubo i t is
'I don't see but w hat it Took s like other
bahies," returned John gruffly, doing his
best to steel Lis heart against the little
ttranger, in which he only partly succeed
ed, for, rough as was the farmer's way, he
had a kindly nature, if one could only
reach it.' ' "Anyway, the authorities will
have to take care of it; we can't. We've
got more mouths to rill now than we can
find bread for." s
lnf. Williams's lip quivered as her
thoughts reverted to the little grave in the
churchyard. Ah! to her there was one
too few ! . " s
"Dear John," she said" pleadingly, "it
eeemsus though God had sent this babe lo
take the place of our own little Willie,
whom He has taken to Himself. Let me
keep it. It will not fail to briur a bless
lug, you may be sure.
iFariner Williams's countenance relaxed
as, he looked into those tearful eyes.
pVell, well, Mary,", he said iu'a softened
vopce, "Fll think about it. If we do, yon
and the children will have to go without a
gojod many things, for these are hard times
and likely to be harder.' So you had
better weigh the matter well before de
ciding." ' .
Mrs. Williams did to, arid the result was
that her "New Year's Gift became a fix
ture in lied Stone Farm-house. Ho grew
np a winsome, merry boy, twining around
even the farmer rugged nature, and tak
ing in the heart of hTs adopted mother the
place of her lost darling, loved and cher
lshecUiy her with equal tenderliess. Many
BacrificeB did ghe make, many loilsorne
hours did she spend, in order that her hus
band might not feel the expense of his
maintenance too heavily. And well did
Lis growing intelligence and beanty and
the ardent affection ho evinced for her re
pay her for it all. There was nothing
about him' that could trive tbo slightest
clno to Lis parentage. Simply a bit of
wnite paper pinned to his frock, on which
were these words, evidently written by a
Woman, in a graceful but unsteady hand:

Before Mrs. Williams could reply ther?

ly a boy, who had
brono-ht
a small parcel
for Mrs. Williams.
"Another .New 1 ear's "ift,

said the farmer bitterly, as he handed it to
her, for he was in a bitter mood. Mrs.
Williams glanced reproachfully at her
husband.
"God grant that it may bling us as much
comfort," she said, laying her hand fondly
upon the head that was restingagainst her
knee. I
' As she opened the package she uttered
an exclamation of surprise. It was a deed
of Red Stone Farm-house, made out in her
name. On the inside' wrapper were these
words: j
"Inamnmrh'as ye did it unto the'lt-ast ot those e did
it unto Me." .
There were grateful and happ hearts
beneath the roof of the old
homestead that
night. Though with Mrs
Willi:

there was mingled an uneasy feeling
She
was well assured that it was in some way
connected with Arthur, and trembled with
apprehension lest some ouC should appear
who had a stronger claim; to him. This
fear was dissipated the, next morning by a
letter thai came to her by the first mail.
It contained a check for five thousand dol
lars, together with these woirds:
"The boy that yon so generously re

dictionaries of Lighi and low decree. The
favorite suitor was Mr. John P. Van Ness
then a Representative from the Columbia
County District of New York, thirty years
oi age, iiamisome and commanding in per
son and polished lu. manners. Alter the
marriage the local military .'companies or
ganized as a "legion," and elected him Ma
jor 'Commandant, which enabled him to
display his manly form in uniform, with
the tight breeches and high boots used in
those days, atid to "treat" his command af
ter the parades. But his commission was
signed by the President of the United
States, and his political opponents, ascer
taining this, forced him to resign his seat
in Congress, ou the ground that he held a
Federal office.
AX OLD-TIME MANSION.
On the 4tlt of July,, 1800, Major Van
Ness had the corner stoi;e of the etatelv ed
ifice which still graces Mansion square
laid with some pomp. Latrobe, the archi
tect of the Capitol, had carie llmichc, and
he certainly spared neither pains nor ex
pense in erecting a noble mansion, which
at that time was the most splendid suburb
an seat on the continent. Before it was
half completed Major Van Ness grew im
patient about the cost, and w hen Mr. La
trobe called one day for a few thousand
more, he said : "I have already expended
over double w hat your estimates called for.
when I began to bnild, yet you ask for
thousands more. Where is the money to
come from V "Major Van Ness," "was
the architect's indignant reply, "it is my
business to furnish plans, specifications and
estimates and yours to furnish the mo
ney." Thereupon occurred a scene which
both preferred to forget, and they became
the same warm friends as before."
The mansion is surrounded by large
trees, gardens and green-houses." Major
Van Ness (1 believe he became a Briga
dier General of Militia) and his wife lived
there in great state, and had one daugh
ter, who was married to Mr. Middleton, of
South Carolina, and died in 1S23. Mrs.
Marcia Van Ness lived until 1833, having
consecrated her life, after the death of her
daughter, to works of benevolence.
Webster asd Jefferson. Daniel
Webster once went to Monticello to visit
Jefferson, and afterwards, in describing
the great Virginian to his friend Harvey,
he said that Jefferson was a tall, gaunt,
light-haired, light-complexioned man, and
not a person of very impressive aspect.
Mr. Webster said that very mnch of the
early prejudice which ho had imbibed with
.his political opinions in youth, when ho
considered Jefferson a great heretic, was
dispelled when he came in contact with
the aged
statesman, ami saw him in his
1
nunc-. oeuersons srreat simn n-itv im
pressed him. Ma. Webster believed him
to be a sincere man, very trim to his con
victions, and -was convinced that much of
the abuse heaped upon him by the oppo
site party, w hich had accused him of being
a demagogue and an anarchist, was nu
jnst. Mr. Webster said once, in speaking
of Jefferson, that he had more deeply im
pressed his opinions and theories, as" well
as his practical ideas of government, upon
the legislation and destinies of the country
than any other man that bad lived.
There is nothing that so convinces' a
man th.at there is truth in religion as to.
see true religion in christians.

place where the fast and fashionable
world hapiiened to be congregating. Her
life, since 1ier separation from her liusbaud,
seems to have been a romance in the style
of Arsene Iloussave, and had, according
to tjie Paris correspondent of the London

A QUAINT LEGEND OF Tilt: RUXBOW.
According to popular belief in Germ.i-
ny, the extremities of the rainbow' always
touch streams, whence it draws water bv
cans of two lare "-olden dishes. That
is why it rains for three davs after the ap
pearance of a rainbow, because the water
must fall agaiti on the earth. Whoever
anivcsat the ndit moment on tho soot
where the rainbow is diinkiiicr can take
possession of tbo dish, which relit U all
the colors of the raiiilniw; but if nobody is
there, the dishes are; again drawn up into
the clouds. Some lav that the rainUnv
always lets a dish fall. TLi oiico lui n.
pened at Reutlingin in Snabi i. It broke
iu several pieces, but the finder recetvcl
hundred guilden fr it. At Tubingen
peoplo nsed to run U the end of the rain
bow, which uppeared to be resting over
the Nccker of the Steinach, to tsecure tbo
golden dish. Usually il is considered
wrong to sell the dull, "which ought to U
keit as an heirloom iu the family, for il
bring? good luck. A shepherd in the San
bian Alps once found such a dvh, and
he never afterwards lost h tdieep. An un
fortunate native of Ilcubach, who sold the
treasure at a high price, was struck dumb
on the sjiot. Small, round gold ct-ius,
marked with a cross or star, tu frequent
ly found iu Suabi.i, and tic j c.is.ints de
clare that these were manufactured from
laiubow dishes by the Ilamans when they
invaded Germ any. In the Black Forest
the raiulkiw used a golden goblet, which
it afterwards dropped. A tdioe thrown
into a rainbow comes back filled with
gold. The Servians have a theory that
passing beneath a rainbow changes the
scx
.When a double rainbow is seen, Suabi
an peasants s.-iv the devil would like to
imitate a rainlnw. iKit be cannot snceced
The Ksthonians called tbo rainlov "the
thun ler of God's fickle." A theory existed
iu the Jniddle ages that the raiubow would
cease t appear a certain number of veati
before tue Iast Jndgmeiit, and Hugo von
Trim her, in an old German jniem, men-
uona lorty years as tue prescribed lime.
