very decided. _
1 As ttie saloonlwaeof unpainted boards,
and nuplastered; the flames _made rapid
progress ; ao that Sim Slipson,, the pro-
prietor; had barely time to save two .or
three armfuls of bottles. With these he

where the speetators stood ; en4 he was
mburnfully contemplating the effect of

had joined the crowd.

came las' night with her young 'un, an'
wanted to sleep than till mornin."

" She don't intend to risk it now, at
easy rate," exclaimed the Major, as a,
dark figure dashed out of the flames,
and, rolling on the ground to extinguish
its flawing clothing, disclosed the cop-
pery, dull, heavy impassive features of
.1 Rai all Mary.
At the' dinnentable that day, the
partners did net exhibit their usual cor-
diality. Joe, to be sure, ate with a good
appetite, and told a good thing or two he
had heard at the saloon, but his three
pattners regarded each other somewhat
after. th manner of three well-bred dogs
having designs; on the same bone. The
Deacon and the Professor felt aggrieved;
and the Major I seemed cons iderabl y an-
noyed ; but alli were too good -mannered
to show any rudeness. Joe finished his
meal, and departed in search of more
cheerful _company. As he departed,
the Deacon uttered a long sigh, and ex-
claimed :
•• Oh, the depravity of the human
heart.!"- ,
"Ah, I think," said the Professor,
!
emptying his ceffee-cup, "that it is per-
haps well to remember that the human
mind is morei -asnenable to pursua,sion
than to force. Our friend is better -
tempered thail most men; but he de-
spises the sentrent of fear, and. is likely
to be indignan when .any one attempts
to awaken it in him." , •
"The law was made for sinners," re-
pliedithe-Deacon, with.r, savage kick at
the clook's dog::: " thaVe what the Apos-
tle, ays ; and its tet ors ought to be
talkpd to 'em till they' T awakened to a
sense of their danger, nd flee from the
wrath to come"
"Suppose we apprd h the matter hi
a common-sense mann r," suggested the
.Major. "If we are al three going to at-
tack Joe at once, orclin ry prudence dic-
tates that we -act 'unitedly. Remember
those two Mexicans w had, who fought
about a mule that 801:11 scampatole while
they squabbled ?"
The Deacon_ was as easonable as men
generally; but, when I e heard the hu-
man soul compared, ev n distantly, with
• a Mexican's mule, he indulged 'in what
would have been. oalled a decided sniff
had the Deacon been a lady. But neith-
er insulting comparisons, nor heterodox
looseness as to means of grace,•were suf- •
ficient to make the Deacon swerve from

his clearly-comprehen ed. duty; so he
exclaimed in a very de idecl tone

"I do 't want to to e it so," said the
Major ra her testily ; 'but isn't it bet-
;
ter to`wa k in any roa than to wander
carelessly about all the asteways of heir?"
The Deacon did not c are answer in the
affirmative, yet he ha too much heart
to say no ; so he comp omised, and re-
mained silent.
"1 thiele," said the Professor, luring
a froubleeonie fly mid r a tumbler by
means of a fragment of stewed dried -
apple, and then quic ly dropping the
tumbler, "that the p rauasive method

" Nor nuther," sat the Deacon, clos-
ing his li s as tightly a if they were the
doors to tJ,he safe which contained. all the
company' refined -metal.
The M jor arose abruptly; and so did
his partn rs. Instead of the three part-
ners waling together to the claim, as
was their, usual custom, the Professor be-
came abs tiled in a book ; mid the Major
consumed an unnsital amount of time in
lighting a cigar, - After the Deacon had
been gon _long enough to preclude the
possibilit -- of his being overtaken, the
-Major, started. The Professor lingered
over his book a few moments longer,

The three partners sat down to sup-

chair. The Major finally broke the
silence. •
"A -Christian couldn't haVetdied Imore

The Deacon took upon lknaself the.
mournful duty'and pleasure ef making a

of painting theron a suitable Iinscri,ption.
For hours did the Deacon raclk his brain
for a passage of Scripture wihich *mild
