From Harper's B-zar. Molly Perry woke, the morning of Memorial day, about as cross as it is possible for a healthy; sunny-tempered girl to be, and with some Teason. For, to begin, her waking senses were first greeted bya strong whiff of tobacco smoke wafted into her open window from the pipe of the lodger below; and as she had gone to sleep with t he same incense in her nostrils, you must own that it was y's, particularly to a coun- try-born noge that knew the fragrance of wild grape-vines and locust-trees. Whatever you may think, Molly was wrathful, and flounced out of bed, shut the window with emphasis, and sitting down in her one rocking-chair, eyed with strong disfavor a pile of clothes on another chair. And here was another reason for her crossness. The night before she had taken ac- suuat of stock in the Age] ot clothes, and found herself on the verge of bankruptey. “Not a decent thing among them except that gray suit,” she thought, disconsolately; and the truth Is they were a shabby lot. Barring the gray suit, a navy blue serge (ragged as to edges, and shiny as to elbows and back), a faded cambrie, an old black cashmere, hot and dusty-looking, made ap the sorry display. hy didn’t she buy some new clothes?” Well, there was no particular reason except that she had no money to buy and no time to make, beingone of the forty or more clerks in the “Mart of Fashion.” on Washington street, at a salary of six dollars a week. Any one mathe- matically inciined can do the little sam which iy did each week: Board... $4.00 Wasuing and Ironing. . 50 One sitting at “Trinity” (a Very humbie one).. 15 Total ... And out of the difference between this total and six doilars must come boots and gloves and hair- pins and pocket-handkerchiefs and everything else, 80 you can see that the Queen of Sheba was te safe from a rival so far as Molly was con- ned. But this mention of the “Mart of Fashion” brings me to the cap-sheaf of Molly’s discom- fort. She had expected to have the day to her- self, but Rush & Crush, scenting possible profit from country visitors, had decided to keep open, vas @ Very cross face that looked at Molly from the litile wavy looking-glass, and the soft brown hair was hatchelled and twisted with very few of the little pats and touches usually bestowed on it. and the blue dress was donned with some twitches. The sizht of the breakfast table did not lighten her mood. She looked down its long length, and noted the spots and rings and splashes on the coarse cloth, the knives and forks at ali angles, and the dishes piled up, frazments and all, by the untidy table-girl, and felt an unutterable disgust for it all. It is not necessary to go into the story of sickness and debt and death which had brought her from a quiet refined home to be a clerk in the Mart of Fashion and an inmate of Widow Juckson’s second-rate boarding-house, but we will start with her this Memorial morning, when, after trying her sharp little teeth on some tough steak and turning over on her plate some flabby fried potatoes, she fished a fly out of her coffee, and took her way to the store. Half the long forenoon had worn away when ly. with a box of tumbled laces before her,” stood looking after a lady who had just passed with a cluster of violets at herthroat, and think- ing wisttully of a certain place she knew of where they grew, cool and moist in their green leaves, when the voice of the ubiquitous floor- walker brought her back to the present. Miss Perry. if you are not more attentive, I I have to report you.” will save you that trouble,” said Miss Per- and clap went the cover on the box, and h went the box into its place, and Miss with very red cheeks and bright ey {PF yes, went down the long store to the office and tendered her resignation, “to take effect at once. if you please.” Mr. Rush was pleased, for trade wasslackening, |and there were twenty girls for every va- cancy. “But you know our rule.” Yes, she Knew the rule, which was that a clerk leaving without notice should forfeit pay from the last Saturday night settlement. But Moliy’s ancestors did not fight at Concord without leaving some- thing of their spirit to their descendants; so she turned to go with an air which betokened no | acquaintance with “rules,” when Mr. Rush, whose heart had been a trifle soften ed by me:n- ories of a certain grave in Mount Auburn which would be decorated that day, nanded out three trade dollars, and in ten minutes Molly was in the Common, “with all the world before her where tc choose. ‘Phe unusual leisure was so pleasant that the girl loitered and lingered, enjoying the sunshine and air, and only when the noon whistles blew did sne come down to reality. After dinner, with locke: door, she held a council of war, Here,on cone side, was Molly Perry, twenty-four years old, with health and hope, five dollars in her trunk, three silver dol- lars in her pocket, and one good suit, and on the other side the great pushing acrambiing, selfish world, eager to.grasp, and slow to give. Molly did some hard thinking. “There's one thing sure.” she thought, “I won't tend store again, and I won't sew for a living, and I won't | be cooped up ina shop.” The chances are nar- Towing fast. Suddenly came an idea. ‘I'll do it,” said Molly; and what it was, the Advertiser told next morning: ANTED, by an American girl who 1s a good Plain cook, a situation todo housework in a small fumily. “Country preferred. Address M. P., Advertiser office, Boston. Well, the answers fairly poured in. It seemed as though all womankind had been waiting fo1 “an American girl who is a good plain cvo! but Molly resolved to be critical, and waited. In the meantime, seeing that a way was open, she dressed herself in her best and went shopping Saturday afternoon. She chose to patronize Rush & Crush, where her high and mighty airs gave unbounded satisfaction to the clerks, with whom she was a favorite. She sailed up to the print counter with great dignity, turned the scoods over, pulled the corners crosswise, after the fashion of women shoppers, depreciated the patteras, etc., but fizally bought print for three dresses, gingham for aprons, etc.. to the amount of three dollars, and counted gut with great majesty the three trade dollars. “Oh, Molly, you know we can’t take them,” said the clerk. Molly turned to Mr. Rush, who sauntering along with his eyes on the other side of the store, was taking in the whole pro- ceeding. Mr. Rush.” she said, “I took these here day before yesterday, and ‘now the clerk refuses them.” Mr. Rush was grimly amused at her audacity, but instead of answering her turned to the grinning cash-boy in waiting and snapped: “Cash, what are you waiting for? Take the goods and money this instant!" The youthful Mercury disappeared like a spirit, and Molly felt somewhat as her great- grandfather did at Concord. Monday morning brought a letter which seemed promising, and which read as follows: “WuratrieLps, New Hampshire, June 2 “Miss M. P.—We need_a domestic and prefer one of our own nation. The famliy consists of myseif and wife and a hired man. My wife 1s feeble, ond the domestic would have to take charge of everything. We would pay three dol- lars a week to the right person. If you feel capa— bie for the place, and can bring a recommenda- tion, we should like to “have you come as soon as possinie” Then followed some directions about trains, and the whole was signed, in plain, homely fashion, ‘Yours, Bethuel Harlow,’ “Wife feeble,” mused Molly; “well, she won't be poking round the kitchen all the time” (another flash of the Concord spirit). ‘Domes- ee eee “servant” or “hired girl.” That sulted. The result was that a few day later Molly, armed with a letter from her minister, was set Frteles the only passenger, at Wheatfields sta- ior b Squire Harlow, waiting for the ‘good plain cook,” was smitten with great mis- ivings at the sight of the stylish young lady, r to nis eves, aécustomed to the dress of Wheatflelds daughters, the simple sult with its graceful drapery seemed the hei ght of elegance, and he was not reassured by the ques- tion of the station agent, “Got compan: ym the city, aln't ye?” But it was too late to retreat, and soon old Dan’l was pulling them steadily toward home. The squire said little, but glanced at the girl occasionally from under his sh: eyebrows. It was a fair, honest sweet evening alr, and the y eyes took in everything, from the chipmonk on the wall to the locust-trees with their drooping clusters. “Want a plece?” said the squire,as they drove Under one. Her face was answer en 5 and stopping old Dan’l, the good mancat a cluster fer aeel thread gloves to take it, showing hands so white that the squi nally. | coffee, knife, ost in the squire’s mind—the storyof the ioe daughter Mary, one of the victims of New England's scourge, who had years before,since when“Miss Harlow had sorter ." It wase pathetic little story told in the nic New England way, but thebrown knotty hands worked unsteadily on the reins, and the Squire's eyes had a far-away look, as though to- ward the country which held his Mary. Presently they drove up to a comfortable house, with an air of plenty about the large barn and wide porch, over which grew a whige lilac. Molly found her mistress a little woman with faded, gentle eyes, and soft, slow voice. She looked at the girl kindly, and held out her hand. After giving her a few directions, and telling her where to find things, she added to her hus- band, “tell John to carry her trunk to the east chamber.” This apparently was something un- usual, for the squire opened his mouth as though to say something, but being a man of few words, shut it acain, and went out. Molly, tollowing her trunk, found herself in a small room, with @ bright rag carpet on the floor, white curtains looped away at the win- dow, home-made linen towels with knotted fringe on the little table, an old fashioned chest of drawers, and a low four-posted bed with valance and patchwork counterpane. The room was neat, but had an unused look, and Molly wondered if the tribe of girls of whicl the squire had made meztion had marched through it; but, too tired to think long, she unpacked ‘her small wardrobe, said’ her prayers, and knew nothing more till morning, when a trilling of birds and a ray of sunshine on her face woke her to her first day of service asa “domestic.” While making her simple toilette she gave many quick glances at the billows of apple blossoms under her window, and some- thing born of the light and fragrance and music was reflected in her face as she took her way to the kitchen. The wood and kindlings were near at hand. the fire started off byiskly with a cheer- ful alr of encouragement, and’ then Molly con- sidered her bill-of-tare. There was salt mack- erel, eggs, stale bread, the inevitable salt pork, doughnuts aad ie and a pan of cream whose yellow wrinkled surface bore testimony to the squire’s Jersey. “That mackerel won't be fried,” said Molly, for the course of frying at Widow Jackman’shad been severe. The fingers that had measured lace and ribbon so deftly madeshort work of getting breakfast, and the squire, coming in from his strawberry bed with a -pan full of “Wilsons,” found it about ready. But somehow his table had an unfamiliar look. The cloth was on straight. the Inives and forks were laid with mathematical precision, an un- wonted air of trimness prevaded his familiar crockery, and—there was no pie on the table. But there was mackerel baked in cream. and Mashed potatoes, and nicely browned toast, and the doughnuts. “Miss Harlow don’t feel able to come out to the table this morning, and I guess I'll take her @ bite before I eat.” And so saying the squire took a plate, and commenced piling things on it in a promiscuous way. On” sald Molly, “let me do it. Ihave hada long experience with sick people. They must be tempted, you know.” She looked up at him with her bright smile, and the squire gave in at once, and watched with wonder while a tray was brought. a clean napkin spread over it, a piece of the mackerel laid on a plate, with the cream ladled dain- tily over it (Molly had seen too much of plates where the meat seemed to have been launched on them by an avalanche of gravy ;) then came a little plate of the potato, a slice of brown toast, a little plate of butter, a cupof fork, spoon: sete. Then she whisked into the pantry, and out again with a saucer of strawberries, and added them to the contents of the tray. “Wait a minute,” she sald, as the squire lifted his burden, and in a twinkling she was out of the door and back again with a spray of white lilac, which, in a tall glass, was given the place of honor in the middle of the tray. “Sho!” said the squire, with his slow smile, “that'll Just suit my wife. She's famous for having things fixy.” Mrs. Harlow had missed the accustomed smell of frying, and wondered in a feeble way if Molly couldn’t find the pork. “Why, Bethuel.” she said, as her husband set the tray down beside her, “how pretty! I really believe I am hungry. And the squire went back to his own break- fast so happy that he entirely forgot the absence of the pie. Well, this was the beginning, and though life afterward was not all cream and_ strawberries aff! white lilacs, and though bread would some- times burn, and pastry flatly refuse to be flaky, and though unused muscles sometimes ached with the new work, yet the girl kept up a brave heart. The squire and his wife were uniformly kind, and the latter, who had suffered as much from lack of cheerfubsoctety as from any physical ‘causé, ‘gradually grew stronger, and would sit through the long summer forenoons inthe greatairy kitchen, placidly knitting or paring apples, and though she sometimes looked wistfully after Molly as she tripped from pantry to cellar, and longed for the girlish figure which used to flit about in the same way, her heart took great comfort in this bright, cheerful stranger. And the squire, hearing the fresh young voice singing about the house, would give a vreat sigh for the lost voice, but somehow the old Louse seemed less lonely to him, and after awhile his first question would be, “Where's Molly?” The plain country so- clety readily took her in, and considered her high authority in the matter of Hae BS of overskirts, and ‘doing up” of halr, and at last no merry-making was complete without Molly Perry. : ‘Those of you who have followed this story in expectation of some absent son or nephew or younger brother of the family appearing and taking Molly for a wife may as well stop here, for nothing whatever of the kind happened, tor the squire and his wife had no sons, and their nephews and brothers were all married long be- fore Molly's day. it istrue that some of the sinart young farmers of the region round about tied their horses occasionaily: at the squire’s gate, and it is equally true that Molly said No to some of them, though they one and all swear by her. This story is not written to induce all clerks and shop-girls to rush into house-work, tor not one in twenty would be capable of doing as Molly did, and not one in a hundred would find such a home: it is written simply to show what one girl did. a AN ANECDOTE OF AAR BURE. ‘The Hecoliections of a Lady who Felt the Charm of His Piercing Eyes. From the St. Louis Republican. In New York city, a few weeks since, died Miss Theodosia Burr Davis, in her seventy-sev- enth year, only sister of Col. George T. M. Davis, well known to some of the older residents of St. Louis as formerly a prominent member of the Illinois bar, aide-de-camp to Gen. James Shields in the Mexican war, and in 1849-’51 editor of a newspaper in this city. Miss Davis was a lady of brilliant and highly cultivated intellect, fine conversational powers and remarkable energy. Though tried by disappointment and sorrow as few have been, she retained her viyacity and wit almost to the last, while by a lite which was in most respects one long self-sacrifice, she won, and kept the esteem and affection of a large cir- cle of relatives and friends. Her virtues, how- ever, were so entirely domestic and private that the only excuse for this brief notice ia the fact that she was indirectly connected with an his- torical personage in whom the public is always interested. a The father of Miss Davis died young, and she was left to the guardianship of his brother, Matthew L. Davis, the intimate friend and biographer of Aaron Burr—one of that little band of devoted adherents who never aban- doned their unfortunate chief, and who were known in those days as “Burr's Tenth Legion.” Though she bore the name of his !dolized daughter, and was the niece and ward of a man 80 closely associated with him, Miss Davis never saw Burr but twice. Their first meeting madea rofound impression npon her, as well it might. ke was at her uncle’s house, spending a por- tion of a school vacation, when one morning, when she"was up stairs, he called to her to come cme as there was a visitor who wished to see er. For some reason she never could explain, she had an undefinable dread of this unknown visi- tor, and did not at once obey the summons. It was ‘ted with emphasis which put an end to further hesitation, and she came down. Mr. Davis took her by the hand and they entered the parlor. There she saw, sitting on the sofa, a little old man, dressed in the fashion of a past generation, with hair as white as snow, and eyes so lustrous and iercing that she could not resist thelr fascina- ion. With the stately courtesy of the ancient womimne, er nels led er toward the stranger, sald: “Colonel Burr, this is the child of whom I spoke.
