This to from Springfield vast a stout, black who indulged from whispered man, time to time in the most strance and unaccountable iiiaiiuvers. Every now and then he would get up and hurry away to the door in these drawing room cars, aud when he thought himself secure from observation, would fall to laughing in the most violent manner, and the healthful exercise until he wa? as red in the face as a lobster. demonAs we neared Boston these in increased violence, save strations that the stranger no longer ran away to laugh, but kept his seat and chuckled to himself, with his chin But deep down in his shirt collar. cou-tiuu- ed the changes that those portmanteaus underwent. lie moved them here, there, everywhere; he put them behind him, in front of him, on each of him. lie was evidently getting ready to leave, but as we were side miles from Boston, such early preparation yet twenty-fiv- e the idea of ridiculous. had entered the city then mystery would have remained was the II' we un-solve- d, but the stranger at last much excited that he could his seat no longer. Some one keep must help him, aud as I was the nearest he selected me. Suddenly turning,as if I had asked him a question, he said, rocking himself to and fro in his chair the meantime, and slapping his legs and breathing hard: 'Been gone three years!" "Ah!" be- came so , "Yes, been in Europe. Folks don't expect me for six mouths yet, but I got through and started. 1 them last at telegraphed station; they've got it by this time." As he said this he rubbed his hands and changed the to the right, portmanteau on his left and the one on the right to the left again. "Got a wife?" eaid I. "Yes, and three children," he returned, and he got up and folded his overcoat anew, and hung it over the back of the scat. "You are pretty nervous over the matter ain't you?:' I said, watching his fidgety movements. "Well, I should think I was," he replied; "I haint slept soundly for a eek. And do you know," he went ou, glancing around at the passengers aud speaking in a lower tone, "I am almost certain this train will run off the track and break my neck before I get to Boston. Well, the fact I have had too much good luck js, one man lately. The thing can't st; 'taint natural that it should, you wow; I've watched it. First it rains, and then it shines, then it rains "pun; it rains .o hard you think it's never going to stop; then it shines so bright you think it's always going to shme; and just as you settled in , either belief, you are knocked over by a change, to show you that you know . nothing about it." , "Well, according to your philosophy, said I, "you will continue to "ave sunshine because you are expecting a storm." "It's curious," he rcturucd, after a Pause, "but the only thing which fflakes me think I'll get through safe, because I think I won't."

"Yes," said he, "thirty thousand pounds; and the best of it is she doesn't know anything about it. I've fooled her so often, and disappointed her so much, that I just coucludcd I would say nothing about this. When I got my money, though, you had better believe I struck a bee line for home." "Aud now you will make her happy," said I. "Happy!" he replied, "Why you don't know anything about it. Sne's worked like a dog while I have been gone,trying to support herself and the children decently. They paid her thirteen cents apiece for making coarse shirts and that's the way she lived half the time. She'll come down there to the depot to meet me in a gingham dress and a shawl a hundred years old, and she'll think she's dressed up. Oh, she won't have no clothes alter thisf-o- h no, I guees not," and with these words, which implied that his wife's wardrobe would soon rival that of Queen Victoria, the stranger tore down the passage way again, and getting down iu his old corner, where bethought himself out of sight, went through the strangest pantomime, laughing, putting his mouth into the drollest shapes, and then swinging himself backward and forward in the limited space, as if he was walking down Broadway a full rigged metropolitan swell. And so on until we rolled into the depot aud I placed my self on the car "opposite 'the stranger, who, with a portmanteau in each handjhad descended and was standing on the lower step,ready to jump to tha platform. I looked from his faca to the faces of the people before us, but saw no sign of recognition. Suddenly he cried: "There they are," and laughed outright, but in a hysterical sort of a way, as ho looked over the crowd. I followed his eyes, and some distance back, as if crowded and shouldered away by the well dressed and elbowing throng, was a little woman in a faded dress and a well worn hat.with a face almost painful in its intense, but hopeful expression, glaucing rapidly from window to window as the coaches glided in. She had not yet seen the stranger, but a moment after she caught his eye, and in another i, instaat he had jumped to the with his two portmanteaus, and making a hole in the crowd, pushing one here and there, and running one of his bundles plump into the stomach of a venerable looking gentleman in spectacles, lie rushed toward the place whero she was standing. I think I never saw a face assume so many different expressions in so short a time as did that of the little womau, while her husband was on his way to her. She uidu't look pretty. On the contrary, she looked very plain, .but some way I felt a big lump rise iu my throat as I watched her. She was trying to laugh but how completely she failed in the attempt! Ilcr mouth got into that position.but it never moved after that, save to draw down at the corners and quiver, while she blinked her eyes so fast I suspect she only caught occasional glimpses of the broad shouldered fellow who elbowed his way so rapidly toward her. And then, as he drew close and dropped his portmanteaus, ska just turned completely around with her back toward mm, and covered her face with her hands. Aud thus she was when the strong man gathered her up in his arms aa if she had been a baby,, and held her sob bing to his breast. And I turned my eyes a moment, and then I saw two boys ia threadbare roundabouts standing near wiping their red eyes and noses oa their little coat sleeves, and bursting out anew at every fresh demonstration on the? part of their mother, wh,o seemed as if tho pent up tears of all those weary months of waiting were streaming through her eyes.
