John Osgood let down the bars for the tired oxen, with which he had been plowing all day, to go through them, and seek on the cool hillsides their night's pasturage. They turned their heads and looked at him with their great mournful eves, as if ex pecting a word, for they were used to the sound of his voice, the slow, pa tient creatures, and .they liked.it, as much as dumb beasts always do tho voice of a kind master. But to-night he had no word for them. He put up the bars again when they had gone through, nnd leaned heavily against them. A May sunset was flushing and sky. Tho 'new springing looked fresh and green. A' feathery leafage was on all tho irth jrrass Ugbt, trees, and a few of them, pear and cherry trees, hail put out white blossoms. The Western sky was piled high with crimson clouds, with close to the horizon, a bar of fiery gold. A reflected brightness finished the East with atoft, roseate hue which spread up to the zenith. All was still as the new birth of a new world. A sense of wonderful beauty and mystery thrill ed John Osgood's uneducated percep tions, lie had no words for such a scene, no clearly uclincu tliotights about it, even ; but it moistened his eyes, and quickened his pulses, and seemed to Hood his life with a rush of dreams and longings. How beautiful this world was! There were Home men, he had heard, who painted such scenes as these others who wrote poetry about them others who set them to niu&ic, like songs of birds, or the soft wash of waves. What was his part of all this? Was that all life held for him ? There must be some other us-e, some other meaning, if lie could only grasp it. Ifhehatlno part or lot in all this beauty why did it move him so? lust then he heard horses' feet, and looking in the direction whence it came. Angelino Wilmavth was sweeping down the hill, with a gay gallant beside her. How liko a part of the sunset beauty she looked, with its rose upon her check, its radiance in her eyes and hair. Her long, blue habit falling low, and swinging lo the motion of her cream -colored horse, her white feather streaming back on the wind, her liliie hands with the dainty gaunlets ou them so much youth and grace and beauty. And the "'city chap," as John Os borne called him, by her side, did uot mar the picture. A handsome, eav- alierish looking man, there was no denying that he showed well beside Angie: but what is he he-re so much for? They swept by, Angio's low, I silvery laugh tinkling a response to .something her companion was say ing; aud a little cloud of dust which the hoofs of the horses beat up behind them filled John's eyes, 'and choked his throat, and added bitterness to his mood. He glanced down at his hard, horny hands, his coarse toil-stained clotht's. How well he would look at Angelino Wilmarth's side! Aud'yeL he had loved her in a vague sort of a way, whose meaning he had just be gun to find out, ever iSinco he could remember. Life would not have such a savor, he thought, without her. And yet, she would be no fit farmer's wife, and that was just what he was n farmer. Then the ques tion came again which had haunted him before coxOd he be nothing else?

Somo ono oould be hired to do as well for them, and ho lio believed he had enough in him to go away and make a career which Angelino Wilmarth would not scorn to share. The crimson had died out of the West, the rose hile out of the East. A hiw' wind had risen and blew 'mournfully aud slowly acro.s tho fields' John Osgood's mood exchang ed with the face of "the night. The exaltation fojsoolc him, and some thing hard, slerif, sullen, alien as it seemed to his generous, hearty na ture, entered in and took possession of him. .He went home, siowjy, with heavy footsteps. .li.i'i., tiuuiiiij . uia inuiiiii. said, cheerily, as he camo Into the kitchen. Somehow, the words vexed him. She had said them often enough before, but they hud never struek him just in thin way till now, Johnny! If she would only remem ber that he was twenty-two voars old ! "Yes, I'm tired," hcanswered, dog gedly. "Well, draw right up to the table. I've got a nice hot cup o' tea all ready for ye. That'll re.it ye, and brighten ye up a little." John Osgood threw down his hat impatiently.. Tea! What notions -A'omcn had! He lookul at his moth er as he had never looked at her be fore. "Mother, "said he, with a bitter ness he hated himselt afterwards, "I wonder if you ever had a trouble that a good cup of tea wouldn't cure? This don't go any deeper tUan that with some folks-." t His mother's eyes clouded, but she answered him very gently. She felt that to-night for some reason he was not responsible for himself. "I've had troubles that went deep enough, John. Five children that have played around my knees sleep yonder, .behind the old meeting house and to bear, and nurse, nnd then lose there's none knows what that is but just mothers with moth er's hearts. Yes, I've had troubles that creature comforts wouldn't help much; and yet I don't despise this world's good things. You haven't any graves, where you feel as if your heart was shut in and smothered, and for bein' titod and mopin' I do think there's virtue in a cup of tea." Her patience and gentleness' touch ed kirn. Re drew up his chair to the table, where hjs father was already sitting, and auswered her in 'a softer tone. "I s'pose you're right, mother; but I'm not just myself to-night." Then he ate his supper in silence, and after it was over sat for a few mo ments thinking, still Rilonrlv Af last he took courage aud opened the iJn .1 -"uu ui-j miua was tun. Father, James McCormiek is wanting a place, tlon't vou think with you to oversee hisa ho could do the work on the farm this summer?" Mrs. Osgood did not speak, but the cup she was wiping fell .to the door with a crash. For a full minute it was the only sound which broke the stillness. At last the old man an swered. ' j-uuii l uuw, joun may oe ne Id. I never liked to have any coul "IrangTs working on th" old place In . n rCSTTTigSTCTry-'y.vriiyj7irnieea'?v?a tMnuLV my time.

"I don't feel satisfied, father, to be p. farmer iu this small way. I want to do something more with my life. You could hire a man to do all 1 do for twenty dollars a month, and I want to see what I'm worth some where el?e." Then there waa another long si lence. Tho mother finished washing up her dishes, and camo and sat down between her son and her hus band, her face verv white, aud her hands shaking "a little. After r. while the old man 'reached out and took one of tho trembling hands into his own. "We musn't blame John, mother," no sj.uu, trying io speaic ciieerluliy. "What he feels isn't unnatural. Oth er young men say tlie same. Very few of them are contented now-a-days to live their father's lives over again. Only, it's come sudden. Don't think we blame you, boy. It's all fair and right only sudden." John got up and went up stairs. His mother's pale silence, his father's attempt at cheerfulness, seemed more than he could bear. Ho went away to his room and sat down by the win now, uver across the fields a light burned steadily. He knew it was the lamp in Angelino Wilmanh's parlor. Was she'woith all this that he was making these two old people Miller? Would she ever love him as they did? Was he sure that she would love him at all? And in this untried life, thisTgreat world where so many failed, how did he know that he should succeed ? "What was he go ing to do? How vague all his pur poses were just a dream, born of it soft Spring night and Angie Wil- uiarius iuir nice: Anuioritno waa going to overturn the whole frabric of his liie. No, he would not be so mad. This Summer, at least, all il . . .. . I a w i .T should go'on as liefore. He would take yme to consider, By Autumn he should Icnow better what to do, and whether he could bear to leave that old father and mother fivo of whose treasures the churchyard held, and whose all he was qui to alone. He began to think that this very iact that he was their all laid on him an obligation that was uot to be evadtd that no success purchased at sueh seifibh expenditure would bu worth having. At any rate he would wait. Aud to sleep came to him, and the morning brought him strength and calmness, and seemed to givo him back his old self again. "Will you seo James McCormjek to-day ?" his father asked, at break fast, with an anxiety he strove to con ceal. John smiled cheerfully. "Not to-day, father ; not at present. My plan was sudden, as you said too sudden to be wp;c. I have given it up, for a time, at least. I will car- I ry on the place a while longer." Ihe old man's face cleared, but he did not speak only John Osgood's mother go up and silently kissed hhn. ZS'o young lips could have been more fond could any be more dear?" Two weeks after that news came to him of Angelino Wilmarth's betroth al to her cousin the city-bred young man whom he had seen riding 'beside her in the May twilight. This was an unexpected blow, something which, knowing the man was her cousin, he had never feared. Tho news sank into his heart with a dull, dumb pain. She never would have cared for him, then never had. It waa well ho had not gone away and loft those who did love him to mourn. After all, perhaps this existence of plowing and planting waa all he was good for. Fate had placed him right lygauged his capacities better than lie could have done himself. So he settled back into the old grooves with a grim icsignalion which was not yet content. Still he felt himself at odds wih tho life which did not oiler what he wanted. When Autumn came and it was time for him, if at all, to make the change lie had planned in Spring, he was surprised to find that the inclina tion to make it was gone. Some heal ing ministry, call it of nature or of grace, Uod knows, bed been at work in hii soul; and, unconsciously to himself, through the long Summer days and swift, short Summer nights he "had been learning the sweetness of duty pure and simple duty done for its own sake. He had begun to ask himself, not what he wished, but what he ought to do ; and ho felt iliac in the very fact of his being to those two who loved him their all on earth, God had called him to certain duties on which he would never asain feel tempted to turn his back. Reconcil ed at last to the appointment of heav en, he was at peace alo with his own soul ; and a new light came into his eye", a new vigor and manliness into his life. He could not think of Angeline Wilmarth without pain. There would always be la his heart for her the tenderness a good man fpols to ward a woman once beloved ; but whether she was his or another'?,' he could reckon iier loss or gain among the "all things" he was content to leave with Heaven. Tie had heard in the Summer that she was to be married . at Chriirias, but he heard no more abous it after wards. Her preparations was going on, he supposed, but he seldom saw her. He had never spoken with her for more than a passing good-day since her engagement. One afternoon in November he brought home from the yillagc'' post office a bundle of papers, -ins Boston daily among them. Sitting;, by the fire and turning them over his eye was caught by the heading ih hirgc letters ' ' ' ANOTHER OJ.SE OF DEFALCATION. Ho began to read the article, with a kind of careless half interest people m the country feel in the excitements of the city, which cannot touch them personally : hut suddenly he started up, clutching the paper tight, and straining his eyes over it as If doubt ing his own vision. The name, of the defaulting and runaway bank-teller was that of Angie Wilmarth's cousin and betrothed lover. Thank Heaven that no mean selfishness stained his soul iu that hour. Kc wp.3 honestly and heartily touched at the thought of Angle's sorrow. Poor cirfl ll there were only anything he could do j to aia or comfort her. He. -took his hat and went out, with some vague purpose of cflering hia help, which the Fail winds scattered, as they blew across nis orow. ut course there was ( nothing he could do ho could net even speak to iier on such a subjeor. ner grief would be sacred and he, had he not been used this many a i month to the idea that he was noth- ing to her any more? ' Still he ven" on, iu ? purp., rc, . v .aAA B.3St -.- 1. . - - - repggzsgsfeggyrasasisaggra sort of way, toward her house; went on, until he saw a slender ilgure coming as if to meet him, under the leafless elm booghs, over the dead and rustling leavos winch lay thick upon the foot-path. Like one in a dream he moved forward. He had meant to pass-her with just n good evening, but when she put her hand out to him, and he looked into her fair, still face, the words came before ne knew it to his lips "I have seen it tall in the paper, Angie, and I am so sorry." "Yes," she said gently, "it ivill nun nim." "And you ! I thought most of you. Ypu were to have been married so soon." "2Tot to him," sho said hurriedly, "never to him. That was done with months ago. I had never loved him. It was vanity that made me consent to marry him. Ho was handsome and gallant, and he promised me all the good things of this life. But I found, after a while, that none of them would pay me for myself; and I told him the truth." Something iu her hurried, earnest tones, or the swift color that stained her cheek, or her shy, half-veiled eyes, or all together, gave John Os good courage, and he said, holding her hand still "It was because I had life none of tho to nrouii&e good things of this you.ngio, tnat jl ureu not ten you how dearly I loved you, and always should. You seemed too bright and fair to settle down here, as the wife of a Ilvefield farmer." "But if I liko that best ?" she said, softl3T, and her hand stayed in his. And so John Osgood won his heart's desire. There are some souls I like to think of, dear children of tho llcaveniy Father, who learn easily the lessons He sets them ; who do not need over much chastening. Beady to take the lowest seat at feast or synagogue there is a Divine and approving tender ness in tho voice which says, "Friend come up higher.." " , . VALLAXDIGIIAaX'S RKASO.V.

The stories of Andersen, whiah all read aud speak of, sometimes fairy tales, sometimes as legends, woj as or simply as stories, are, hi the Danish language, called etetityr, a word that had the same origin, perliapa, as our adventure. The meauing Is not the same, however, for the eventyrs are adventures or scenes which have something wonderful abov;t them, something out of the common lino of incidents: and when Andersen pub lished his "JEvcTtfyjfortaltefor Horn," he meant to say that these were strange stories of storks, of tops and balls, of mermaids, princes and prin cesses, told for bairns. Thuro has been published a volume, which he calls "Tho Story of my Life ;" and in giving his autobiography such a title, he wished to say, that in looking buck upon his life, it seemed to him as strange as a fairy tale ; it had adven turesrbut they were not such as foil to the ordinary lot of nun. Somo wonderful fairy godmother hnd be stowed gifts upon him, and brought to hir., born in poverty and obsoirrit3', such happiness and honor an very few know. Thus he begins tlie tairy tale of his life : "My life is a lovely story, happy and full of incidents. If, when I was a boy and went forth in the world poor and friendless, n good fairy bad met me and said, "Choose now thy eoursc ami the object for which thou wilt stnvo; and, then, according to the developments of thy mind, and as reaon requires, I will guide and defend thoo to Its attainment,'' my fate could not, even then, have been directed more happily, more prudent ly, or belter. The hi-lory of my life will say lo the world what It says to me There is a loving God who di rects'all things for tho best." The beginning of this lively fairy talc was a birth in a poor shoemaker's house atOdcnse, a town in Denmark, on the second of April, 1K05. Ander sen was born in th ouo room which hi father ami mother occupied, which served alike for house and shop; his father, a 3'oung man of pSbtie mind, always hungering after a richer life than tltat sient-iu making slices; his mother, a simple, suporstitioisK, aflec tlouato woman. In this room he be gan his life, and his earliest recollec tions furnished him with scones which afterward ho wove into his stories. "Out little. rooin," he. say's, 'which was almopt tilled' with tho shoen-.ak-i rVbeneh, thc-'hedr&iu! my crib, wng the abode of my childhood ; the wails, however, were covered with pictures, and ,uver tho uork-beneh w?:s a cupboar'd containing books a'nd soiiH ; the lihle kitchen was full af shining plates and, metal, and, by mcfjita of a bidder, it w:ts possible to go o'ut o:t the roof, where, in the gut ters between our houtic audho neigh bor's, there stood a great chest filled with soil, my mother's sole garden, where she grew her vegetables. Jn nry story of the "Snow Queca" that garden still blooms." He grew into a tall, ungainly lad, as shy as a girl, and yet so simple liearted that lie was ready to confide to the utmoat hi auy one who smlkd on him. At a charity school he Iearn t d just a little, but that little so care lessly that long after wards he suffer cl for the lack of such eonfmon knowledge, even as how to spell. It wnf now, too, that ha began to arfo ciate more with others, ami, like hfe companions, to go through tho cate-chh-m, preparatory to confirmation. He- fells a Iitth story here oT himself, which, shows where 'The Red Shoes' came from. "An old female tailor altered my deceased father's great coat into a confirmation suit for me; never be fore had I worn so good t-coat.1! had, also tor toe lust time in my nio, a pair of boots. My delight was os tremely great ; my only fear was that everybody would not seo them, and, therefore, I drew them up over my trousers, and thus marched through the church. The boots creaked, aud that inwardly pleased me : for thus J the congregation would hear thai they were new. My w'holo devotion was disturbed; I 'was aware of it, and it caused me a honible pang of con science that my thoughts should boas much with my new boots as with Uod. I prayed Him earnestly from my heart tx forgive me, and then again I thought about my now boots." When he was fourteen yeuis old, he was seized with a desire to go to Cop enhagen, havin:n vague feeling that there he should see the wide world and lieootue famous. It was a restless, ignorant sort of expectation ; all he could say was, that people have an irnmen.se deal of adversity to go thro' anu men tuey win uo iaiuous. Jiei . . -v-r begged his mother eagerly to let him go, and at last the consented ; for she was poor, and poor K.'ople's boys of ten hvae to begin to care for them selves when no older- J3ut Tin,:, sho sent, In her superstition, for a so-called 1 wite woman, who proteased to be able to tell fortunes.

Vhen he set out for Copenhagen, he had a little nuin of money. aud, Iii3 confirmation buit. including his boots, which he now wore under his trousers, howvtr, and thus he began his life away from home. He was so utterly UjuornHLrW the ways of tho world, and so simple in his c-onfTdencc, that he ajtoiddicd fr'.eryoue-to whom he made himself leu own, ami-was laughed at for a, lit tle simpleton. , .Ho had such an in no i-Tir -rnr ftf irnnuf l-lnrltf i.n t, nnl. and taking for wnat -he wanted.

OFFICIAL TAPER OF THE COrailV puppets and dells, began to find ex pressions in writkig, and. before he finished his frehooling, ho was writing, stories and dramas: and just beforo he passed his last examination, when he was tweuty-four years old, ho orongu. out a collection oi poems, and one of his pJaya was aoted at tho theatre. Denmark is a. little country, but an old nation inhabits it; and hence it is, in fact, that society there is some thing like a great family. Every ono knows every one, and personal allium get talked about, and a new author, or artist, or aotur, Is at onco taken In hand ; people aiot only talk about him, but talk to him, aud criticise him, and tell him what he ought to do. Society there Is a village tea-ta-blo of educated people. Andersen, who had come up from poverty, and was besides a young man ignorant of worldly wisdom, was badgered a gootl deal, aud in the early days of his au thorshlp,had tostruggle hard to main tain a position. But, by degrees, ho commanded attention and respect; people began to see that he had gifts of an unusual character, nnd just tho things for which he was at first blam ed Ilis naivete and childishness are now what the world recognises a? h-Iu good qualities In literature. From that time to this he has bot-n writing stories ; novels for oldor peo plo, Kuch as "Tho Improvisators. which is a picture of Italy, ami "O. T., and "Only a Fiddler," where th scenes are Danith. Ho has been a great traveler, also, and among, hl.s works arc pleasant siories of Spalu, Portugal, Swollen, Italy, Greece and the Orient. He Is llauish to the core. The legends of hia native country, the wild sand-heaps of Jutland, tho beech-trees, the bright, quarrelsomn city life, the fresh, frank hospitality , all get into his storie?. But it Is IiIh little stories that have wen him re nown. They were Something so uoav and pleasing that they became at onco general favorites with young and old, and In the theatre-, instead of poetty, , the actors would recite "The Constant Tin Soldier," "Th? Top and Ball," or'-The Swineherd." Thorwaldseu, the famous sculptor, was a Dane, and was delighted with Andenseu'B sto ries. In his company; he wroto "Oh Shut Eye," and, "often." says Andvr sen, "In the twilight, when tho fami ly sat iu the open garden pefrlctr.Thor wahlseu would come softly behind, and clapping me on the shoulder, would ask, "Shall v.v little out-a hear any tales to-night?" " When he bogan writing his stor', besought only k Ull over again old, legends of leu mark, , which ho had heard as a child'; b it as his interest increased he invented his stories,, and soou every ChriHtmas'b: ought uw volume of iatoriea fxooi him. I think one reason whyvhj5 wrote these ato rics, which he dm not iiblih until he was known na the author of "Tho Improvisatore," was, thafr be m heartily tired of (1m perpetual? criti cism which Us- p-ple wero -mat in;: of h!ui, and wished to do botucthiug for thste who eoolU enjoy redin-: wlthoi'j frveroxiih)lnrngwrat they liked and what they did not Ilka. Foe the first lime he found hinnelf in .-. wholly congenial circle; his-quaintest fancies pleased, and were not jeer ed at. Andersen was never married, and lives a rambling sort of life, some times in Copenhagen, bat quit as ol ten traveling in Spain, Switzerland, Franco and Holland. Ho Is a great favorite at various courts, but his true distinction emjoists in tho faet that every ho'ue is ojrju to him, ami tht jhm-. as well aj the rich, know Iris kind'y nature. lj himself; In "The Story of my Life," relates a bright little scene.

''On our way," he says, "w camo lo an elesrant' house." "We must first go in here, dear friend," sald Speck tor; "a wealthy family lives here, friends of mine, and friends of your stories ; the chiklren will be happy." "But the opera," said I. "Only for two minutes," returned he, and drew me Into the house, men tioned my name, and the eiiulo of children collected, around me. "And now tell ua a tale," said -he; "only one." "I told one and then hastened away to the theatre. "That was an extraordinary Islt," said I. "An ex'vllent one; one putlr-ely out of the common way,' ' said ho ex ultingjy.
