THE HURON
XPOSITO.
- MRS. FLINT'S MARRIED EX -
PERI PNCE.
1 (CONTINUED.)
"Look here, Deacon Flint. Mother
left you because she hadn't food, nor
care, nor nothing she needed, nyther
when she was sick nor when she was
pain' better._ She thought a spell o'
rest would do her good; she knowed by
that smart contraok yoa got out of 'her
that you owed her a livin.' anyhow, and
you habil done a thing to'rds it sense
she went to her own house. Now I
don't call that conduct honest by no
means, mechless Christian."
“Jedge not, Samwell Pratt. Scripter
no less 7ia statoot law commands a wife
to be sabjeck to her hasband. Sarepty
had what I had. Idone what I jedged
best for her, and instead of subrnittin.'
to her head, she up and went off to live
by herself, and ler me to git along as I
eould. 1 wahit noway bound by no la*
nor no contrack to supply her with
means so long as she went away
from her dooties, ,and made me an as-
tonishment an' a hissin' in Israel, so to
speak.,"
"Stop right there 1" broke in Mabel,
furious. "I've heard say the devil
could fetch Soripter to further his own
parposes, and.I b'lieve it. Didn't you
have no duties to your wife? Don't
the Bible say you've got to love and
cherish hr? Don't ten. me ! I lived
here long enough to see yeti starve and
browbeat end torment her; I know
your mean, hateful, crabbed ways, and
I don't, knowi how she lived with, you
so long. She ought to have run away
years ago; and if foiks do hiss at you,
it's moren time they did. Christian
—you a Christian! You're a dyed-in-
the-wool hypoorite. If you're pious, I
hope I shall be a reprobate."
"1 ha'n't no doubt but what yon will
be, young woman," answered the dea-
con, with cold fury. "You'd ought to
be put under the pump this rainint for
a common scold. Get out of my house
right off !"
And with this he adVancecl upon her.
But Sam Pratt, lifting the old lady in
his arms, carried her away, and gently
shoved ,slabel.glowing with rage, before
them till they reached the wagon. Then
he himself went back and tried to naake
terms with tb.e deacon. At last, moved
by the worldly wisdom of Sam's argu-
ment, that it would put him in a bad
light before people if be refused to do
anything for his wife, he did agree to
let her have half of his share of the pro-
duce from her farm, if Sam and Mind-;
well would provide for her other wants ;
and making the best of a bed bargain,
the poor woman retired to the old house
which Sam had repaired, so thas most
of it wee habitable; and Mabel, who
had agree 1 to teach the district school
: the next year, took up her abode .with
her.
Now the deacon had a clear field,
' and appeared in the arena of Bassett in
the character of. an injured and for-
saken husband. His prayers at meetiug
were longer aua more eloquent than
ever, .. and the church, sympathiziug
with his sorro ws —the itude mem bees
especially depr aesting 'air. Flint's ex-
ample, leat it should some time be fol-
lowed by their own wire—unanimous-
ly agreed to withdraw their fellowship
from Mrs. Flint a peneeediug in kind,
if uot in ti. g..ee, like the anathema of
the papacy. The poor old woman quiv-
ered undor She blow imparted to her by
Parson Ret.erts, awful in the dignity of
his offiee Teal u hew wig. But the par-
son was letmerin and the teieek grief of
the wonotet, set off by -efsatss blazing it). -
&potion, worked tipon his honest soul,
and caused him to doubt a little the
church's wisdern. Mab had followed
him aoross the door yard to the gate in
order to "free her mind."
"I wa.nt to know what you wanted
that poor woman to do, Parson Roberts.
She was dyin' by inches for want of
vittles fit to eat, and the care most folks
would give a sick ox. Do you think,
now, honest, she'd ought to have staid
with that old wretch ?" -
"Speak not evil of dignities, young
woman. Amasy Flint is a deacon of
Bassett church; it does not become you
so to revile him." .
his glitteriug generality did not
cla nt Mab o moment.
"I don't care if he was deacon in the
New Jerusalem, or minister either; if
he was the angel Gabriel, and acted the
way he did. act, I shouldn't have no
faith in his piety, nor no patience with
his prayers."
Parson Roberts glared at her over his
spectacles with pions horror. "What 1
what ! what I" he sternly cried. "Who.
be you that set in judgment on yOur
elders and betters V'
'1'm one that's seen him where you
haven't, anyway, nor your church mem-
bers.. I've lived• to his house, and I
know him like a book."
Was it possible, the parson thought,
that Brother Flint might have been in
fault—just a little? But he was faith-
fulto his dogmas and his education.
D° not excuse the woman's Bin. She
haS left her lawful husband, threatened
to Swear the peace &gadget a Christian
Man whom she was bound by human
and -divine law to obey, and caused a
scandal and a disturbance in the fold of
Christ. Is this a light matter, you
daughter of Belied?"
Mab laughed --laughed in the par-
son's face, in full front of his naajestic
wig, his awful spectacles, his gold -
headed cane uplifted in the heat of
argument. He could not see that she
was a 'little hysterical; he grew i red
with ungodly rage; but Mab did not
care a pin.
"You ain't a fool, Parson Roberts,"
elle said, undauntedly. "You've got
eyes in yosir head, and you'd know, if
yoiS'd use 'em; that Aunt Flint is a
weak sister anyway. She wouldn't
turn no sooner'n the least vsorni that
ever was; but Sive will turn; if you
tread right on 'am. And whatever you
saels you know jest as well as I do that
Arnasy Flint drove her into leavin' him,
and drove her with a whip of scorpions,
as the Bible tells about." .
"Woman, do you mean to say ',lie ?-
thundered the parson.
"Well, yes, if you don't tell the
truth," returned Mob, completely at bay
now. An audible chuckle betrayed
Some listener, and the parson, turning
round, beheld. old Israel silently un-
loading a wheelbarrow load of potatoes
at the corner of the fence, and wonder-
ed in his soul how long the man had I
been there, but considered it the better s
part of valor to leave the scene now
that it had ceased to be tete-a-tete; so he o
waved his hand at Mab with a gloomy e
scowl, and went his way.
"Land o' libefty !" ejaculated the old t
man, drawing the back of his hand T
across his mouth to smother a laugh,
"didn't yon give him jesse 1 I swan
you're the gal for a free fight, nos.
He's heerd the fac's in the case if he
never did afore. Of all things 1 What
be you a-cryin for now, eh?" For Mob
a real woman, had. flung her apron.
over her face, and. was sobbing violen -
ly. Uncle Israel gently tried to pu I
the cheek screen away, but she held o
to it.
"Let me cry," she said. "I ain t
sorry; I'm mad, and I've got to cry it
out."
"Well," said Israel, returning to his
potatoes, and slowly shaking his head,
"women folks air the beatered. I doa't
know nothing about 'em, and 1I'm five -
an' -sixty year old come -Friday. Lor-
dy 1 there ain't no riddles nOr Chinee
puzzle ringato compare with lern,

Lord ! bat I never was sure o' her, evens
I wouldn't no more try it again than
I'd slip down into a bee tree, for there's
fall as much stings as, honey to 'em,
and take an everidge, I guess• there's
more."
Whether or not the parson's silent
ideas coincided with those Israel ex,
pressed isnot for the ignorant ohronicler
to say, but it is certain that hiscandid
and generous soul was so far moved by
Mob's tirade, he denied and
defied it during its delivery, that the
next day he resolved to call in a coun-
cil of his neighboring brethren to discose
the matter, and indorse or reprObate the
action of his own church.
So he wrote to the Reverend Ami
Dobbins, of Dorset, and the Reverend
Samuel Jehoram Hill, of Bi
better
better known as, Father Hill, and in
compliance with his request they re-
paired to Bassett and investigated the
matter. Being advised of the Pastor,
who had had his .experiences, theylwent
to Mrs. Flint's during school hioura, and
Mabel had no chance to pour out her
soul before them; they encountered
only a pale, depressed, weak woman
who was frightened out of what little
heart was left her by past trials, when
these two august personages came into
her presence, and with severe countenl-
ances began their catechism of her life
with Deacon Flint. As in the case o't
many' another woman, her terror, he
humiliation, and a lingering desire 6
shield her husba,nd from. his own miS-
deeds, all conspired against her; her
testimony was tearful, confused and
contradictory, though through it all she
did feebly insist on her Own sufferingsl,
and depicted them in honest 'colors.
From her they went to the deacon,
whom they found resigned, pious and
-loftily superior to common thinga; then
• he was a man, and a deacon 1 Is it 6
be wondered at that their letter to the
- church at Bassett was in the deacon's
favor? • They did. indeed own that Mrs.
Flint had "peouliar trials," but went on
to say :
"Nevertheless, she cannot be fully
justified, but has departed from meek-
ness and a Christian spirit. parti-
cularly iu indulging angry and passion-
ate expressions, tending to provoke and
irritate her husband; and howeyer un-
justifiable his conduct may be, that
doth net exculpate her. We think that
it would be proper aned suitable for her
to make suitable reflections ; .acknowl;
edge she hath given her brethren and
sisters of the church occasion of stum-
bliug and to be dissatisfied ; and upon
her manifesting a becoming spirit of
meekness and love, we think they ought
to restore her; but if she shouid refuse
to make such reflections, they canno
consistently receive her."
And with a few added remarks on the
perplexity of the case, and advising the
'church to call an ecclesiitstica.1 council'
the Reverend Ami D011sbins and Father
Hill retired for the present.
Bat Bassett Was not content. Weeke
passed, and no act of confession or cop1
trition came from this poor old offender.
To tell the truth, Mabel stood behind
her now, afire with honest rage at the
way she had been put upon. tri
"You sha'n't do it, aunty 1" ;she said
with all her native vehemence. .
l
'You confess like that 1 It is
that old hypocrite's place to confess.
He drove you out, now when you get
down to it, and he hain't asked you to
come back that I've heard tell. I'd let
him and the church, and Bassett too,
go to thunder if they're a mind too. If
you make 'suitable reflections' they:11
reflect on old Flint and Baseett church
members. Dear me I know one thing:
I'd_rather be an old maid ten times over
than married to that maul".
A faint enaile crept over the old wo-
man's pale face ; from her high pillows
she had a good outlook, and more than
once she had seen an interview by the
little gate that did not augur long mai-
denhood for Mab. .
"Well, Mabel, if that's your say,
why, it behooves you to be real cau-
tious, though I dole' know as Sam
• Pratt's brother could be &flyways other
than good." .
Mab blushed like a Provence rose, but
said nothbag ; yet day after day kept
hardening her aunt's heart as well as
she knew how; and Parson Roberts re-
ceiving no ''reffections" from the offend-
er, and having great faith in Father
Hill's power of persuasion invited
him to come again by himeelf and
hold a conversation with Sister Flint
on the subject of her trials aud con-
tumacy.
Father Hill was o quaint gentle,
sweet -natured old man, steeped, how-
ever, in the prejudices of his time and
his faith; he, too, went to the house
mailed with his fixed assurances of
ecclesiastical dignity and martial su-
premacy. Synapathy, pity, comprehen-
sion of her side of the case, would have
disarmed Mrs. Flint completely ; she
would have sobbed, confessed, laid her
hand on her mouth and her mouth in
the dust, and been ready to own her-
self the chief of sinners; but to be
placed in the wrong from the first, re-
proved, admonished and treated as an
impenitent and hardened culprit, made
it easier for her weak nature to accept
the situation than to defy or deny it.
Nothing Father,Hill could say moved
I
her, but her dull and feeble bstinacy
stirred his tender heart to its depths;
he felt a despair of human mans and
a yearning tenderness that coilld find
no outlet but in prayer; he fell on his
knees before the chair in which he had
been sitting, and lifted his earnest face
to heaven.
"0 dear Lord and Master," he Said,
peaking even as a man unto his friend,
'Thou hast borne ow. griefs and carried
ur sorrows. Thou knowest by heart
very pain and woe that we feel ; a
tranger cannot interrneddle, bat 0
hon Hope of Israel, why shouldest
