And be walled off. to It was not a little to Mrs. Groen'e setorialment that Aust Bab the next morning at break at asked her to go with her to the store of Spoon, Fork & Co., where she had been in vain urging lier to look ever since sho cargo into town, and they set out early. The found but one clerk in attondance, who politely inquired how high-priced & pitcher they would like, when, to ber coun- panion's surprise, Annt Bab roplied, "Not lagber than ten dollare." But she had no time to express her opinion, for the young man placed before them soveral pitchers that fully justified the re- contendation of Mrs. Dubois. They were still examining them, when a man in his elirt-sleeves, evidently a workman, entered, and after looking at them attentively for a few moments, beckoned saide the clerk, held a short whispered converas- ton with him, and wont out again. The young man then went to another ense, and brought out as simply and exquisitely beautiful a pateber as could be desired, offering it to the for Efteen dollars. It was neither large nor showry, but there was a tasto anal fineli in both design and i execution that could not fail to etrike the most inexperienced observer. "Just the thing, Cousin Bab 1" exclaimed Mrs. Greon, eagerly seizing the beautiful pitcher, and never for a roomcut doubting that Aunt Bab would take it withont an instant's britation. "This is indeed beautiful, and cheap us dit T But again the little woman's cyou expanded with astonishment, for Aunt Bab cnly replied cuolly: "Yes; very protty; but she could not give such & prco nn that." Why, you are not in the least haunted on tunt point " exclaimed Mrs. Green, I bend Mr. Jola Aunt Bab closed the mouth of the speaker, and informed the clerk that she would decide by the afternoon. But to this he decidedly demarred. "The pitcher belonged," he said, "to the mau they had seen. The partners were in the habit of allowing their workmen, when they chose, to employ their surplus money and time in making oparticles of their trade, to put them in the store, to be sold for their own benefit. But this rann bad had sickness in his family, and was greatly in need of money; so he had come in to any that, for the euke of rolling it at once, he would let it go for the cost of the material. In the hope of obliging him immediately be bad offered it to than; but if it were not cold before the partners come in, they, no doubt, would themselves take it," He Bually cousented to keep it for one hour- to give Aunt Bab tino to ninko up her mind-and as they left tho storo, Mre, Green excused herself from going further, and returned home. She had no wish to take the tramp that Aunt Bal was ovidently bent upon, especially as she thought it i would all curl by taking this very pitcher, which, 1 in her opinion, she might as well do first an lost. Ent no earthly logic would have convinced Aunt Bau that a pitcher offered for fifteen dollars there, might not be led anywhere else for ton; and, morever, her mind was eeltled upon the iden ehe had longht away from Mrs. Oswald's conversac tun. The clock had hardly strock for noon when u ele once moro returned to Portietli street with I the announcement that she had seen, some days o before, in one of the crves utroots on the castern L side of the city, a very little shop, in the window t of which was an ico-pitcher. The door was fastened then, bat to-day she had gone there t again and found it open; the pitcher, the manu said, be had bought at an auction two years y beforo, in the hope of a prontable speculation-t but there it was yet; eo, for the sake of getting back his money, he woull sell it for just enough toropay himeolf principal and interest-ho might r have it for ten dollars. She had gladly taken lám at his word, aud sent it to Mr. John's office; for each a pitelor, at such a price, he could not object r p r L F to. For opce Aunt Bab eeemed to havo mnccredel; v for it was not long before a ring at the baconjent t bell was followed by the pitcher-out to her to be m puched. Fortunately for the shopman, Mr. c John was not in the office when he took the pitcher there; but he had given his bookkeeper t general order to receive aud pay for all parcele n that might arrive with a noto inau Aunt Eal, and e let the peter carry the immediately to her in t Forticth street, He had mado no escaption net regarded the pitch-r, en, of course, tho boul keeper had not; and when he returned, the porter and la bnudle were cone. The bookkeeper hed noi acen ita conteute, the bill, recoipted by t "Joseph Smith," gave him no clue to the personn ality or whereabouts of the silverenith, and le o was forced to take a merit ef necessity, and a "trast," as he said, "to hack." Meantime, Aunt Bal was in raptores, and vaunt- ingly displayed the piteler to the household. It w ont and plain, with a simple beading rouud F the edgo, and a handle ormed like a twisted vice twig; but its clief glory was the hool, that eur mounted the smooth, fat cover-knob formed of equures of metal piled irregularly upon each t other-intended for cakes of tolerably thick ice upon the top of which equatted a pondescript sort of a figure, expprecl to represent a Polar bear Mre. Green's large eyes grew larger than ever ov they turned from the pitchier to Aunt Bab, and from Anal Bab back to the pitcher; while Ler thoughts wandered back to the exquieitely beautiful veseel lo that she had soon upon the counter of Spoon, Fork & Co.; but there was no use," the thought, if she didn't say it, "in crying over spilled milk," and bold her peace. But time was precious. Aunt Bab was to start by seven o'clock next morning, or be obliged to pay ber own passage; a small company of friends was expecte d that evening at Mrs. Green's; the bedroom floor was strewn with bundles of all sorts, sizes, and shapes, yot to be pecked, and nothing was yet provided for the children." Thin Inat was the crowning troublo; and scarcely wasting to finish her dinner, che threw on her ahol and bonunt, and ran "between daylight and dark," ne that part of the day is graphically desigunted, into n neighboring street, than abounded with small shops for the sale of all sorts of cheap merchandien, She was gone a long. long time, and returned just soon enough to dross for the evening, bringing with her four anall earthenware mugs, encls bearing upon white ground the inscription, "For a Good Girl," earuounted by a picture in red, blue, purple, or brown. Her purchases were now all made, and as soon as the company were gono she exchanged her dress for a long wrappor, and proceeded to the business of paeking. That her one trunk- thoughs ebo land brought an ausplo one for that very purpose-should hold all thatebe bad toenrry, censed an atter impossibility; and kind-hearted little Mra, Green, who, foreseeing the state ofafinirs, had been vainly endeavoring to porude her for a week to got another, now offered to emply one of hers and lend it to her. Aunt Bab was grateful, but very resoluto in declining the proficred kind- Dess. The railroad regulation allowred but one trunk to each passenger; for more than this they must pay by weight, unless it were a carpet-bag or some small article of that sort that they could carry with them; and thenigh she was very willing to have her poemgo paid by Mr. John, she could by no means consent to have an extra tax laid upon him as long as any contrivance of bera could avert it. www The chief difficulty was to pack that pitober, no that it should sustain no damage, and for that she laid what she considered a master plan: First rolling as tightly as possible the various articles of ber underclothing, abe laid, as it were, anulid flooring upon the bottom of the trunk. Into the cracks for they were but little more- between these rolle, she thrust the handles of the four carthionware cups, thus socuring them, as she thought, from the risk of being broken off; the spaces between the upward projecting migs nbe filled in with other rolle; over the whole spread a fine cambric handkerchief, to prevent a ecratch if the motion should rub pitcher and cups against each other, and thon pited in what she called "the ligister articles," until abo bad dis posed of all, except what was designed for a sanall carpet-ing that she borrowed for the occasion. To close the trunk thus etuflod was more than either sho ne her kind hostess could accomplishi it became necessary to call in other help; and first the strong, rosy Irish cook wae summoned, and then Mr. Groen Limself, before the lid could be induced to return to its proper position. Even then it proved to be an impossibility to lock it, and Kate's whole weight, as well as that of the brond, portly Mr. Green, lied to be placed on the top of the trank before the hosp could be forced into its place and the key tumed. To expect the lock to bold under such a pressure was entirely beyond reason, and when the trunk was locked it had to be socurod by a strong rope. It was late before anybody saw their bods that uight, and the next morning they were stirring belimes. A nice breeldast was prepared and eston before Mr. John drove to the door to take up Aunt Bab and her belongings. He cast a ruc- ful glance at the ropo-tied trunk, as Katie and the coacliman staggered with it between them down the high brown-stono stoop, and Aunt Bab roplied to it apologetically: "We were afraid the lock would not hold, the trunk was eo full." All the way home she entertained her companion with an account of ber wearleone journeys about the city in search of the pitcher, und gave so glowing a description of the ono sho lind finally purchased that he began to fool quite good- natured about it, and to faney that perlinpe, after all, it might be just what he would like. Arrived at the Villa, Aut Bab could scarcely restrain herself until the trunk could be carried to her room, for it was too full to be opened any- where elso; and as soon as sho saw it deposited there, she summoned the whole family to be present nt the unpackung. Article after article was taken out until she came to the pitcher, which lay-who would have dreamed of such a thing 7-forced by the onormous pressure, alincst fat, and as it was slowly and dubiously lifted ont, exhibited the four carthenware touge buried in its under ende, with the cambric Landkerchiof wedged in between Mr. John made no corament, but with an ex- picesive sirag left the room. 26o pitcher was acut the next day to the city to Le again restored to its proper shaps, and never hoe a reuanrk bovn ronde anng the busechold about the ice-pitcher, or its appearance remained unberalded by a ensile then C 1 troops PED OUT OF PLACE.-In the aftnol of the Prison on Olecin,G-licia, naar scon, whale engaged in attouding on the battle-deld to sore wounded Asse trians, was Lakon prisoner by the ouesay, tho Prassmen Loving been compiled to rely.
