Want Slroulal like to trade with you 1’ r This was the salutation of :1 tr: handsome youth, as he opened Mrs. Pltrllips’ kitchen door, one fine morn- ing in August and addressed the lady of the house at her seat. by the win- dow. Now Mistress Phillips was a little nettletl with the disobliging conduct of a skcin of yarn which she was winding and she answered the 'fcllow’s string of inquiries rather tartly for her: ‘ No; I don’t want any of your trasb.’ Mrs. Plrillrps' eyes snapped por- tentiously and her eyebrows drew lrrrc closer relationship, as ifdcter- mined that no pcdlar' should be suf- fered to annoy their amiable owner. ‘Pleasc, Mr. I’cddlcrman, I want a titr dipper 9’ called a childish voice from a back porch, and little Eva Phillips, the first and last born of her parents, came bounding into the room. Eva was 3 beautiful child. and the young pcdlut‘ gazed at her in urrdisgniscd admiration. ‘ And pray, for what does my curly headed girl want a tin dipper? he asked, with an amnscd expression on his face. ‘011, to dip up water from the brookâ€"~40 get perries down on Black- berry Hill, and, she added, with charming Naivele, " to see my face in.’ ‘ ‘Female vanity alike the world over,’ he muttered to himself; then â€"-‘ but my dear girl you shall have the dipper. The best trn in the world might be proud of mirroring such a face! Come out to the cart and get it.’ Eva ran merrily down to the brown gate where the pcddlcr's good natured horse was patiently awaiting, 'the master’s coming, her happy head full of the grand times she’d have with the tin dipper. The peddler opened the box.and took from thence a very bright dipper, and then with the point of his knivc engraved his namesâ€"«Eugene Fullerâ€"upon the out side, and gave it into the child’s hand. "There, my little Miss, what is your name I’ , Eva Pearl Phillips,’ said the girl, inspecting her gift with sparkling eyes. ‘ Miss Eva, a pretty nameâ€"well accept this dipper as a love gage tl'rom Eugene Fuller, who, when he gets older. is coming back to make you his little wife. .

I do wrsh there hadn’t been a peddler created ; they’re a post I” Mrs Phillips rocked violently buck and forth in her cushioned chair, and made an extra knot in the refractory yarn. 'I‘ime passed on, and Eva kept the tin dipper among the most cherished pluythingsâ€"shc did not use it often fear its lustre would be spoiled, and me name of the donor effaced. Mrs. Phillips despised pcddlcrs, and she would have destroyed the amulet had not her mother's love for Eva pleaded against it. So when Eva had reached her tenth yearâ€"a bright, blooming little ltlSSlG, full of gaiety and happiness, the dipper was still in existence, bearing bravely its age, and its oft repeated struggles for favor with Mrs. Phillips. Eva though quite. a young lady, was as fond of it as ever; she kept it on her pretty dressing-bureau, that it might "meet her eyes the first thing in the morning. One would have thought that the. little maiden was completely infatuated with what, five years ago, Eugene Ful- ler, the pcdlar, had styled a ‘love 'gagc,’ and perhaps she wasâ€"we cannot say- Certain it rs that there is no accounting for the fancies of a. female head no philosopher has ever discovered a itest by which to array- lize the mysterious composition. and never will. 7 One evening Mrs. Phillips was coming into the kitchen in something of a hurry and it being dusky in the room, she hit her foot against some ll obstacle, and in consequence lost her balance and fell down into a large pan of buttermilk which Jane, the careless housemaid, had left on the floor. There was quite a splash- ing and splattcrrng. and Mrs. Phil- lips though unhurt, was decidedly put out-«not out of the buttermilk, but out of temper. Her favourite poodle dog was frightened so much at her“ fall, that he flew upon the cat’s back for refuge, and the latter animal made her escape through the chimney, leaving poor Roche to drop down at his leisure. From the ruins, Phoenix like, Mrs. Phrllips arose ; and on Jane’s bring- ing a light she proceeded to inves- tigate mattersâ€"wondering all the time what she could have srumbled against. The wonder was soon dis- pelled by the appearance of Eva’s tin dipper, for the clrrld, wcuried out pasture, and returned home so drow- sy that her mother had sent her di- rectly to her room, wrtlrout giving her a chance to put away her treas- ure. The sight of the dipper only seemed to increase Mrs. Phillips’ in~ dignation, and she vowed vengeance on the unfortunate cause of her downfall. Consequently, the next morning when Eva arose and looked about for ‘ her dipper, it was not to be seen â€"â€" She Went to her mother for infor- proved, on being brought to the in- quisition by Eve, to be in a like bliss- l'ull state of her mistress. Then Eva went through with a grand system of rcconnottering, lwltich resulted in the recovery of her dipper from a mass of rubbish in a corner of the wood-shed. It was bruised and battered a little, but in- other respects, as good as new, and Mrs. Phillips, though guilty of the intent, was not exactly guilty of the sin of the iconoclast. Resolved to guard against all fur- ther profanatfon of her idol, Eva carefully tied the dipper m a piece of strong silk, which had been given her by the village millincr’ to make her doll a dress ; which she deposit- ed all in a little hollow at the foot of the pasture, and covered the oper- ture with a flatstone. Some days afterwards she was witlta fixed attention, dashed to- sent by her tnothcr on an errand to wards her and clasping her in his to hold berries or spring water, for" with a long ramble over the field and ' motion, but that lady was profoundly ‘ ignorant in the matter; and Jane.

She came to the narrow bridge across Dead 'River. and was nearly in the middle ofth'e crossing, when her attention was attracted by a large cluster of dragon-star, clinging to the willows which hung over the bridge. Thoughtlesslymer eyes fixed on the flowm‘s, she adâ€" vanced to the edge of the. bridgeâ€"â€" thc plank bent and tipped with her weightâ€"«one scream, and the little form of Eva struggled in the water. She closed her eyes and gave herâ€" sclf up for lost ; but no, the dipper bound with the silken cloth, acted like a life prescrvcr, and kept her above the surface. ‘Help me! Do somebody come and help me! screamed the little girl as she was borne rapidly past a field where some farmers were on- grtged in planting their corn. In a moment a stalwart mun cleft the waters, and reaching out his hand, grasped her by the arm and swam to the shore. ‘ Where am I; and where is my dipper’l’ queried the child, ss soon as she came to realization. ‘ You are here’ replied the man; ‘ but what of your dipper'l Ha, as Ilive, ’tis an old dipper rather the worse for wearâ€"wtiod up in a rag! Well, it saved yourlifc.’ Then the good man put her in his rough farm waggon, and conveyed her home, taking particular care to relate to her mother the Important part the dipper had played in the rescue oftlrc child. ‘I tell you, ma’am, if it hadn’t been for that ar’ dipper kcepin' her above water, she’d ’a been dead drowned aforc any mortal man would ’a reached her! Thank the dipper, mirror and not me.’ This unbiased account of the praisoworthy behaviour of the dip- per, softened Mrs. Phillips toward it, and she allowed Eva to keep it wherever she chose. Months and years rolled away. and when Eva Phillips was fourteen, she was sent to a celebrated semi- nary in a neighboring State, from wlriclr,:1l'tcr a three years" course she Was emancipated u ' finished young lutly.’ But her learning and accom- plishments had not spoiled her, and she was the same gay. light-hearted little fairy who had begged a dipper from} Eugenie Fuller, twelve years before. ‘ Shortly after Eva’s return to VVheatwold,her mother sickened and I died, and although in many l‘cSpGCIS' a lrarshwoman she was long and sincerely mourned by her daughter.

Sad to relate, Mr. Phillips was among the killed, and Eva, ontlre whim of CUI’ISCIOUSDCSS found herself orphaned and alone in the World," among strangers. It was a new and terrible cxperrcncc to her and her sl'rr'inking spirit was nearly broken by the shock. She suffered herself to be guided entirely by the advice of her unknown pr‘cservetw-adepend- ing upon him with the trust of a‘ helpless child. Under his protec- tion Eva set out for home, home no longer now that there were none on earth to care for her. The house at Wheatweld had been closed the greater part of the time during the absence of its owners, and had only been Opened a few weeks before, in expectation oftlreir coming. Every- thing was damp and mouldyâ€"the curtains were falling to pieces in the continual moisture of the atmos- phereâ€"everything bore the impress of gloom. Still heavier fell that gloom when the closed coffin holding the remains of Mr. Phillips was brought into the long dark parlorâ€"â€" awaiting the funeral service of to- morrow’s morn. Eva’s affliction was dreadful to wrtness. She took notice ofnothiug, neither ate nor slept, and refused all attempts at consolation from her sympathysirg friends. Tire young stranger, who accompanied her home, took charge of everything, and the good people of the vicinity, supposing him to have been an inti- mate friend of the deceased, made no inquiries concerning his right to act as he saw fit. Mr. Phillips was buried by the side of his "wife, and Eva, on the arm of the pitying old clergvt‘nan, Went down to the grave, iceily fearlessâ€"- like a stone statue. She exhibited no emotionâ€"uttered no sighâ€"her eyes looking vaguely into vacancy with a fixed immovable stare. The funeral over, the stranger engaged two trusty servants, a man and his wife to take charge of domestic af- fairs about the place, and then he had made preparations for imme- diate departure. The morning on whichhc was to leave, he sent a message to Eve, requesting a pri- vate interview. It was granted, and she met him in the little boudior attached to her chamber, where she had passed the greater portion of her time since her return. He came in with a little hesitation in his step,- and took the chair her silent nod in- dicatcd. ir‘rvolurrtarilv open the tirr dip-per,- whlclr still retained its olden place upon her dressing bureau.
