Per- ki ns was a young man perhapseight-and-twenty; and Tower was approaching the middle age." "Ah," said Perkins, in a tone of fretful-uess. 'here comes Matthew Baldwin.' The person thus alluded to was at that tnomont crossinu the street, aud as he reached the sidewalk he stopped in front of our two friends. He was a rough-clad, brown faced man, with a frank, opeued countenance, and he earned hia bread by . . hard work from day to day. 'Good morning,' said Matthew Baldwin. Perkins aud Tower returned the salutation.'Mr. Perkins,' pursued the laboring man, with a show of nervousness iu his manner, 'could yoa make it convenient to Ikt me have a littlo money this morning?' 'I declare, Matthew, you have hit mo in a most unfortunate time,' replied John Perking, laughing. His laugh was a business laugh. 'I am sorry, sir,' said the laboring man. 'The bill is only eight dollars; and I need the money very much. If you could con trive to spare me a part of it' 4Xo, no, hold on a few days, Matthew, and you shall have the whole or it. haven't cot it now. If I don't see you when I have it. IU sod it in to you.' - Matthew Baldwin turned away with a reluctant step, and the two friends pur Sid their way. poor Matthew is disappointed,' remarked Tower. 'Yes, I suppose so, responded Perkins. 'I hud half a mind to offer to bind you the money for him. 'I'm glad you did not, Silas; for then 1 should have been forced to pay him.' 'Hut, John, you Hircly would not keep the poor man out of his money if you couk' rake it for him.' 'I don't like to pay myself short,' ffss Perkins' reply. Silas Tower believed that he knew his friend' fault, and he determined to speak his mind freely. I thiuk,' he said, in a careful, considerate way, 'that you conld have paid Matthew Baldwin eight dollars if you had so wished. Am I not right?' 'If I had wished to py away all the money I have with me, I suppose I could. But I dwu't like to do that.' 'Why not?' 'Why not?' repeated Perkins, with elevated eye-brows, 'Why because 1 like to havo a little money by me.' 'For wbut?' 'For what?' wasthcecho. 'Why there may to athousaud things for which I might uecd money.' 'And for what can you need money more than to pay an honest debt to a hard working, needy man? Now, John, you must pardon n.e it lt-jctk llaiuly.' 'Go ahead,' cried Perkins, wiih a light laugh. 'Then here it is, continued Silas Tiwcr: 'If you had eight dollars in your pocket when Matthew Baldwin asked you to pay him that sum. the money really belonged to him. He had worked for it, and you had received the full valucot the demand You have no more right in honor, to keep that money than you would have had to embezzle a like amount.' 'Upon my life. Silas, you put it strong; but 1 don't see it. Do you iike to be without money?' No; but I would rather be without money than to be in debt.' 'Doj'ou mean to S'iy that you would have paid away your last dollar had you been in my plaf-e a few minutes ago?' . -Certainly I would. And why should I wish to keep it? If I have money iu my pocket, which is not alrcadjrappropriated. Tus'u it to suppTy' my'wiints ' And to meet emergencies, sugges1 sted i Perkins. Ye to meet emergencies, admitted Tower. 'Aud what greater emergency can . ., . .. i ..Htse man uie coining oi aucn i..p..- tion as Uul'Lwiu. made to pay? When a friend wants to borrow money of me, I am apt to consider my owu convenience first; but when a man comes to me tor money which I nwo him. I pay it if I have it iu my possession. In the fii-t place, the money is really and truly his, and I only have it in keeping I'm hiui. Matthew Baldwin h a poor man, working hard to support himself and family; and when you h;red him. you knew that ho needed the pay for his work from day to day or. at least. Iroui week to week. When he had done his work, you owed him eight dollars; and if you had eight dollars iu your pocket, the sum was his, and not yours; and wheu he asked you for it, and you told him you could net pay it, you were acting out what 1 should call one kind ol tnilczlcment.' John Perkins laughed. 'And,' pursued Tower, t.ikiiv.' no notice of the interruption, -there is another reason why you should hae paid him the nioii.iy, even though it tisdt your last pen ny. You should havf done it for you- own good. While a man is iu debt he cannot afford to waste money; lie needs to save with a careful hand; but he will not save if ho carries ni .uey just for the sake of spending it. Now mark me, John, and say if I do not tell the truth : If you made fit the fixed rub of your life to pay all your , lebts as no-n they were due, you would, in me sense,' never bo in debt: and you would then never be spending money which was not yours. 1 his determination, put in practice, would free you from all cm-barrasement; and lead you into the confi-dotiue of your fellows. In short, tho man, who never gets into debt, or who, if debt must come, holds the liquidating of that debt as of tho chiefest necessity, will be prcttyure to prosper; and, in the end, he will uot be likely to be called upou to pay away his last dollar. And now, my dear fellow, if you want my advice, 1 can give it to you.' 'OoabentV 'Do you go back this very morning and pay Mattuew Baldwin what yoa owe him. (!o now. bciure TOU CO to VOUT work. If - I t U takes tho last dollar, go and do it. Or, if you have tut the eight dollars, go and tell him so, aud ask him to divide with you.' 'I guess I must think of it awhile," said Perkins, with onother laugh. "At all eventB," added Tower, "yoa will allow me to speak with you again bn tie' - subject?" J "Certainly." At this juncture thii two friends sepera" red, Tower going to his store, while Perking pursued hia way to the machine shop, where he turned two dollars aud halt a day. This1 was Monday morning Ou Tuesday morning John Perkins saw Matthew Baldwin in the street, and he avoided him shrank off down a narrow by-way, so as not to meet his poor creditor.Oa Wednesday morning John Perkins saw Matthew Baldwin again; but he was not forced to dodge out of the way, for this tin.e the poor laboring man was standing at the door of a physicians office. On Thursday morning, as John Perkins was going to his shop, he saw in the street ahead of him, Matthew Baldwin and Silas Tower, engaged in conversation. Directly Baldwin crossed the street and went away, j while Tower waited for Perkins to come up. The two frieuds shook hands, snd passed the complimDnts of the morning. "Poor Baldwin is in tronble,"said Tower, as they walked on. 'Ah, how so?'' asked Perkins "His wife is very sick has been sick over a week: and two of his children are I duwu witn the diptheria. ., vuu oi uiem the doctor thinks will die. Poor tellow! I pity him. What with nurses to hire, aud provisions of all kinds so hiirh, he fiuds it hard to cet alonir. I lent him five dol. lars this morning, or rather, paid him in i advance for some work which he has prom i.scd to do for me,!" John Perkins seemed to be little nervous."By the way," pursued Tower, after they had walked on a littlo while in si-Innce. '-have you paid Baldwin thnt eight dollars yet?' 'No -I haven't," replied John, reluctantly.'Have you got money enough with you to pay it?" '.-No." "Uow much have you?" "Not over three or four dollars " "Now John," said Tower, with sudd eji earnestness, "I am going to ask you- a uelion; and you can answer- me, or uot 1 as you please. bat have you done with tb money you had Monday morning?" At first John Perkins could not tell what he hid done with it; but finally - he made out to account for a part of it. There were tw.i tr. outre ticket at fifty eeuts each. One oyster supper himself and friend a dollar. A horse aud wagon for a moon light ride two dollars. And thcu he owned to numerous glasses of soda and beer. Iu all he accounted for six dollars oi- thereabouts. "I declare,'1 said Tower, shaking his head, aud speaking with solemn earnest ness, "I would not like to borrow money of Matthew lialdwin for such purposes!" 'How?" uttered John. "Borrow of Mathew Baldwin?,' "0, you need not try to hide the truth, John. You know what I mean." At this point the friends separated; and as John Perkins walked towards his shop ( Ik; words of Silas Tower rung iu his ears. I lid ho know what his friend had meant? Ayo that ho did, an 1 when ho reached his place of work ho reflected along and seriously. 'I declare,' he muttered to himself, as he rolled up his sleeves, and arrauged his tools. "I think Tower is right. 1 could have naid Baldwin last Mouday morning if I had only thought so. I wish I had.' Uc set Lia lathe, and fixed a bar of iron for turning. 'If 1 had paid him,' he con. tiuued, as he watched the bits of iron drop from tho revolving bar, 'I should at this momeutbe better off than I am. Of course I shouldn't have borrowed to go to the theatre with, uor to pay for horses with. By the Powers! Silas told tho truth. That raouey honestly belonged to Matthew Baldwin.' And so, through the day, John Perkins talked with himself upon the subject thus brought before him, aud beio.-e uight le had resolved that he would turu over a new leaf-On Friday mortmg John Perkins saw a wan carrying a little cofliu iuto Matthew Baldwin's house. The sight caused him to reflect more deeply than he had done on the day before. That little coffin, with its tale of bereavement aud wo, lod him iiito sympathy with the sufferers; and the thought that his failuro iu duty might have added to the sufferings of the lowly household smote him iote the heart. j Saturday evening Perkins knocked' at Matthew Baldwin's door! Tho poor mau answered the summons. He was towed with grief and bis eyes were red with weep ing. 'Pardon n for calling at this time,' said Perkins, in subdund tones; 'but I thought you might need- the money I owed vou, 'Indeed, sir, I do need it; and I thank you lor your kindness in remembering me Tho man's faca brightened as ho rcccivod the money! and he "cxp roisel LLi thank3 ajjaiu. I 'lu the time to come,' said John per- j kins. 'I may hare considerate w.rk for jyuu to do; and I promise that you ibull never uguin have occasion to ask me twice for what is your due.' And he kept his word. People who were acquainted with John Pcrkics, and who bw him often, fancied that he walked more stately and proudly than he used to walk; and the impression with scce was, that he had met with a stroke of good fortune. The grocer, and the baker, and thq butcher were among those who imagined that a large sum of money had fallen to him. . Six months passed away. John Burkina and Silas Tower were walking together a we have seen them before. 'My dear Silas,' said John, in continuation of a conversation already bsjun, 'I owe it ah to you.

I shall not feel that my life is sa'etill I have killed the other two." A boy of sixteen, cmcealedin a Union house, saw his own mother taken out and shot before her own door, in wantonness, by an iufernal guerilla crew. He went out the moment the aBsasins had fled to pick up herjifeless form; counted the wounds there were nine -and having buried his mother, iu-stautly, stripling as ho was, enlisted iu the Union army. Ho had already made sure ot tho slaughter of seven rebel by his own hand, and he swore ho would never cease until In had two more rebel lives one tor each shot in his mother's body! These aro the terrible passions which the malignity of the foe has aroused inthehearts of our brethern on tho bordor. Do you wonder'a? them? Is it not absolutely essantial to- eelf-preseivatiou that they should adopt tho policy, nay, let me rather say. yield to tho passion of extermination, under such furious hatred as our enemy feels and practices towards them? Cau yon wonder they form solemn leagues and covenants of common defence, and ewear oaths of mutual fidelity! Said one of them an ultra peaco man who, in tho worst Kansas times, had refused to wea' secret weapons. l'Do you know what it means'' and his facu. said my triend whom ho addressed. I glared with a terrible earnutness as he spoke "do yon know what it means to swear by tnapirationt For I have to sworn to have tho blood ot every rebel that on any pretence tomes sneakiug into my neighborhood-" lie had seen dozens of honest Union men taken out by 'beso villains and shot witliont provocation. It was tho possibility of sccrcs like this in onr own communities that started the Loyal Leagues. In Baltimore, where they begun, th j danger was not merely imminent, it had already fallen Tho invasionof Pennsylvania aroused Philadelphia to a senso ot her own peril as a possible border city. lUcn began to look round to see whom they could depend on should men, already traitors in thoir hearts aud tongues, find courage to turn traitors in their deeds.
