Mowbray had, of en before experienced her neighbor's quair leome i.posi lion. She h i i, how. ver, managed b,.th lo control hurnwn indigna.ion.nnd, what w,n more difficult, to keep down that of her servant. But here was n crisis. . Biddy's threat of leaving rupired that an ift'.rt s' ould be made to conirol Mrs. Power, for Biddy was not only too good t servant to prl with ui.necessHi'ly, but had light on In r si Ie. ; , , . So Mrs. Mobray, during the morning, called m xt door and sent up her nam i i the mistres. of the' houae. Ai h'rsr. Mis Pow, r, thinking the visit ono of an ordinary chnrac.er, was all smiles. But when Mrs. M ibiay approached the real purpose of tl.e interview, her bos ess rl tied out in- to anger. A termagant lo her husbnn'', i tyrant lo her children, nnd a quarrelsome acquaintance under all circumstances, Ms PoA'er w -s not to he brought to ri'asoii, tveu by lhe mild and lady-I ke Mrs. Mow-fray. The hutt-r, after a space, had to re- j tire before the enraged looks and opprobi- ous womsoi ner neigiioor, giung up the field in di-pair. .i .- ,s i Things went on worse after , this interview. . It eemed to afford Mrs. Power peculiar delight to invent annoyances lor her neighbor. In a score of ways, the pivience of Mm Mowbray and her servant was tri.d. Kiichen reluse was. often (ound, at morning, in Mrs.. Mowbray's gr.d,n evidently thrown there during the iiiglit; an I no one could be suspected eX-fpt Mis. Power. A canary, which had escaped froi.i- its' cage, and trespassed on the pn mises of the la-ter, was killed. At last, even the foibiar-nnce of Mrs. Monbray gave oiit, when she found,' one day, that oil had been poured on her front door s!ep9.- To crown her troubles, Biddy, the evening before.had ex ecuti-d her threat nnd left, worn-out by lhe numbtiless .vexations arising, from tlieir quarrdsome neighbor. ' ' " The indignation of Mis Mowbray alill continued, when, about a week afterwaid", snolher neighbor called in. , A'.ui st the firs' word the latter said, war "Have ynu heard how the children are next 'door ?" .' ' ''' "The children ? Why? Is anything lhe matter ?", . . , "Haven't you heard ? They have the scarlet fever." "Dear me, the poor things !" ejaculated Mrs. Mowbray. "No 1 I batlen'l heard." For the truth was that she had ceased all intercourse with her quarrelsome neighbor "The woist is," resumed her visitor," "that Mrs. Power has nobody to help hir. Her servant got frightened and went off last nig it ; and none of the neighbors will go in ; and strves her right." In a ti tle while, the visitor left, and Mrs. Mowbray returned to her household du'ifs. But h. r mind was no. on them Sl:e I could not helD lliinkili" of the little ones next door, who were Buffering Lt their mother's fault. . ; ; "Three children sick, and no onetohelp her. Poor dears !

It was nut an easy liisk, but Mrs. Mowbray was universally le'ppi c'U'l. and she made it a point that the neighbors should come to oblige her, and not Mrs. Power. . , , During the whole of one week, while the lives of lhe children hung successively in the balance, Mrs. Mowbray was assiduous, with her assistants, in this ceigl.boily du ly. During all that time, lhe mother, wild with anxiety, could think of nothing but her litile ones. , But when the peril was past, the poor , creature threw herself, in an agony of remorse, rhame and repentance, at Mrs. Mowbray's feet, crying ; ,"0h I I can never thank you enough.

"'' Day alter day passed, nnd yet the boy begged 10 be kept "only lill to moriow ;" so ihe kind couple concluded, aittr due consideration, that, as long as he was docile nnd win kid so heartily, they would take care of him. One day, in lhe middle of winter, a peddler, long accustomed to trade at the cottage, made his appearance, and readily disposed of Lis fcbods, as it be had been waited lor.

The poor woman trembled as she laid away her purchase, nor could she rest lill she had called the b y in and assured him that she knew (hat dark part of his history.
