A young merchant went abroad, and after many years, having a large top- tune, returned to his native laud. When he reached home, he found that his relations had gone to a feast at a country house a few miles away. He was 80 eager to see them that he did not takB the trouble to change his clothes, and was wearing the things h6 had used ou board ship coming homo. When he entered the large hall where the guests were all assembled his cousins showed very little pleasure at the sight of him. It was plain to them that ho had come back a poor man. A young negro who had accompa nied him from abroad was qulto upset by their coolness to his master, and Bald: "They must all be very bad men to receive you so cruelly." "Walt a minute,” whispered the mer chant, "and you will see a chauge in Lhelr looks." He quietly put a flnc diamond ring on his linger, and, lo! every face began to smile, and they pressed at once around him and called him “Cousin William." •'Has a simple gold ring the power to charm people like this?" asked the black servant in perplexity. "It is not that," replied his master; "but the ring Is worth a good sum, and they guess from It that 1 am rich, and riches are dearer to them than any thing." "What deluded men!” exclaimed the negro. "They think more of yellow metal and a piece of glass than all my master’s virtues and loving kind ness " Th' .ili ■N'lirili I 'artdiiia Siai" hi par!
