The Brave Cashier.

MARK TWAIN'S THRILLING TALE I OF TWO lIVES. These two were distinctly related to each other—seventh-cousins or something of that sort. While still babies they became orphans, and were adopted by the Brant", a childless couple, who quickly grew very fond of them. The Brints were always i-ayingj "Be pure, honest, sober, industrious, and considciate of others, and success in life is assured." The children heard this repeated wine thousand of times before they nnder .-tood ir. They could repeat it themselves leng before they could say the Lord's prayer. It was painted over the nursery door, and was about tlin first thing they turned to read. It wrts destined to bctJomo the «n ---.swerving rule of Edward Mill*' life. Some times the Brants changed the wording a little, and said :" Be pure, honest, sober, industrious, considerate, and you will never lack friends." Baby Mills was a comfort to everybody about hiuii When he wanted candy and could not have it, he listened to reason and contented himself without it When Baby Ueuton wanted candy he cried ftff It until he got it.. Baby Mills took care of his toys j Baby Benton always destroyed his in a very brief time, and then made hira?olf so insis tently disagrceahle that, in order to have peace in the luaisc little Edward was per suaded to yield up his playthings to him. When the children were a little older, George became a heavy expense ;in one re spect he took no care of his clothes j conse quently, he shone frequently in new ones, which was not the case with If ddie. The boys grew apace. Eddie was an increasing comfort, George an increasingsolicitude. It was always sull'icient to say, in answer to Eddie's petitions, "I would rather you would not do it ''-Weaning swimming, skating, picnicking, berrying, cirCusing and all sorts of things which boy» delight in. But no answer was sufficient fof Georgie ; he had to be humored in his desires, or he would carry them with ahigh hand. Natur ally, no boy got more swimming, skating, berrying and ho forth than he ; no boy ever had a better time. The good Brants did not nllow the liovb to piny nut after nine o'clock in summer evenings; they were sent to bed at that hour. Eddie honorably re mained, but George usually slipped out of the window towards ten o'clock, and enjoyed himself t'i midnight. It seemed impossible to break George of this bad habit, but the Drnnts managed it ut Ixftt by hiring him with apples and maiblea, to stay in. The (f>fd Brants gnve all their time and atten tions to vain endeavours to regulate Georgie. They said, with grateful tears in their eyep, Kdd'ie needed no effort of their», he was so good, io considerate, and in all way* so per fect. By and by the Ktfys were big enough to work, so they apprenticed them to a trade. Kdward went voluntarily, G?orye was coaxed and bribed. Edward worked hard and fai'h fully, and ceased to be an expense to the 2"od Brnn'B; llx-y pr»:Bfi'l him, f>" dil hi* master, but Georgt ran away, and It cost Mr Biant both money and trouble to hunt him up and get him back. By and by be ran away again more fnoney and more tionble. He ran away a ihirrl tim^snil *tole afew things to carry aw*ywith him. Trouble and expense for Mr Brunt once more ; and .besides it was with the enatpst difficulty that he Kiicceedi'd in pcrsuadirg ihe muster to i"t tho youth go nnpn gecutod tor the theft. Edward woikod >teadily ulon^ ar<l in time been me h lull p it-c- in li* mantrr'- l.usi ness. Georgo did not Improve; he kept the loving Jic.iiM of his benefactor* full of l-nuh'*, Hid lll": r '• •nd« fill! of inventive activities to protect him from ruiD. Edward, is a boy, bad iutere- U-tf himself in Sunday -choola, debatingeocieties, penny missionary ifTairs, anti-tobacco organizations, anti-pro fanity associations, and all such tbinga ; ac i man, he was quiet, butstcadyand reliable helper in ihe church, the terr.perauce societies, and in all other movement* look ing to the aiding and uplifting of men. This excited no remark, attracted no atten tion, for it was his "Datmal bent." Finally the old people died. The will testified their loving pride in Edward, and eft their little property to George- because he " needed it," whereas " owing to a bonn ifnl Providence," such was not tho ca*e with Edward. The property was left to George conditionally; he mast buy out Edward's partner with it; else it must go to * benevolent organisation, called the Pris oner's Friend Society. The old people left a letter, in which they begged their dear son Edward to take their Iplace apd watch over George, and help and shield him.as they had done. Edward dutifully acquiesced, and George became his partner iv the business. He was not a valuable partner ; he had been meddling with drink before ; be soon deve loped into a constant tippler now, and hie flesh and eyes showed the fact unpleasantly. Edward bad been courting as weetandkindly spiiited girl for sometime. They loved each other dearly, and But about this period Gcoige oegan to haunt her tcarlessly and imploringly, and at last she went crying to fdwarrl, and said her high and holy dntj was plain'before her ; she must nut let her own selfish desires interfere with it ; she must marry " poor George" and "reform him." It would break her heart, sbe knew it would, and so on, but duty wan duty. So she married George, and Kd ward's hearl came very near breaking, a* well as her own. However Edwaid recovered and married another girl—a very excellent oue she was, too. Children came to both families. Mary did ber honest best torefoim her husband, but the contract was too largo. George went on drinking, and by and by befell to illuting her and the little ones sadly. A great many pood people strove with George—they were always at it, in fact—but. he calmly took such efforts as his due and their duty, and did not tncud his ways. He added a vice, presently,—that of secret gambling. He got deeply in debt ; he borrowed money on Ihe firm's credit, as quietly as he.could, and carried this Byetem so far and so »uccessfully that one morning the Sheriff took possession of the establishment, and the two cousins found themielves penniless. Times were hard now and they grew worse. Edward moved his family into a garret, and walked the streets day and night, seeking work. He b«pged for it, but it was really not to be had. Ho was astonished to see how soon his face became unwelcome; he was astonished and hurt t* see how quickly the ancient interest which people had in him faded out and disappeared. Still he must get work ;so ke swallowed his chagrin and toiled in search of it. At last he got a job of carrying bricks up a ladder in a hod, and was a grateful man in consequence, but after that nobody knew bim or cared any thing about him. He was not able to keep up his dues in the various moral organiz ations to which lie belonged, and endure the sharp pain of seeing himself brought under the disgrace of supension. But the faster Edward died out of public knowledge and interest, the faster George rose in them. He was found lying, ragged and drunk, in the gutter one morniDg. A member of the Ladies' Temperance Refuge fished him nut, took him in hand, got up a subscription for him, kept . him sober a whole week, then got a situation for him. An account of it was published. t General attention was thus drawn to the poor fellow, and a great many people came forward and helped him toward reform with their countenance and encouragement. He did not drinkarirop fortwo months and meantime was the pet of the good. Then he fell-in the gutter; and there was a general sorrow and lamentation. But the noble siste;hood rescued him again. They cleaned him up, they led him, they listened to the mournful music of his repentances they got him his situation again. An account ot this was slso published, and the town was drowned with happy tears over the re-restoration of the poor beset and struggling victim of the fatal bowl. A grand temperancn revival was got up, and after some rousing speeches had been made, the Chairman said, impressively, "We ore now about to call for singers, and I think there is a spectacle in storefor you wl-'ch not many in the house will be able to view with dry eyes." There was an eloquent pause, and then George Benton, escorted by a red sashed detachment of theladie* of thereluge. stepped forward upm the platform and signed tho pledge. Tho air was rent with applause, and everybody cried for joy. Everybody wrung the hand of the new con ert when the meeting was over; his salary was enlarged next day ; he was the talk of the town and its hero. Account of it was published. George Benton fe'l every three months, but was faithfully rescued and wrought with every time, and cood situations found for him. Finally be was token nrnnnd the country lecturing as aroformed drunkard and he h&d great houaec, aud did an immense amount of good. He was so popular at home, and so trusted during his snbei intervals, that he was enabled to use tho name ot a principal citizen, and get a large sum of money at the bank. A mighty pressure was brought to bear to save him from the consequences of forgery, and it was partially successful - he was " sent up " for only two years. When at the end of a year, tho tireless efforts of the benevolent were crowned with success, and he emerged from the penetentiarywith a pardon in his pocket the Prisoners' Friend Society met him at the door with a situation and a comfortable salary, and all the other benevolent people came forward and. gave , ■ :..,^. :.. ~,■

They coni manded him to reveal the "combination" «o that they could get into the Bafe. R e 3 fused. They threatened his life. He said' his employers trusted him, and he conld^ be a traitor to the trust, He could die if h« must, but while he lived he wonld be faith ful; he would not yieid up the "combin* tion." The burglars killed him. The detectives hunted down the criminal*, the chief one whe proved to be Geormj Ben ton. A wide sympathy was felt for ik widow and the orphans of the dead maw and all the newspapers in the land Wo nri testify their appreciation of the fidelity and heroism of the murdered cashier by conrinb forward with a generous contribution or money in aid of his family, now bereft % support. The result was a mass of soli! cash amounting to upwards of §500^.™ average |of nearly three-eights of a cent fnr each bank in the Union. Thecashier'soW bank testified its gratitude by endeavottriue to show (but humiliatiugly failed in it) ftJ the peerless servants' accounts were not '- square, and he himself had knocked hig brains ont with a bludgeon to escape detcc. tion and punishment. Georgy Benton was arraigned for trial Then everybody seemed to forget the wid o » ' and orphans in their solicitude for poor ' George. Everything that money and i B . fluence could do was done to save him. hirt . it all failed; he was sentenced to death. Straightway the Governor was besieged with petitions for communication or pardon. They were brought by tearful young gJtj. - by sorrow old maid?, by deputation* of pathetic widow, by shoal of impressive orphants- But no, the Governor for ob«. would not yield. Now, George Beaton experienced religion The glad news flew all around. From tbtf time forth his cell was always full of girls ,nd women and fresh flowers; all the day king there was prayer and hymn singingaml : thanksgivings and homilies and tears, with : never an interruption, except an occasional ftve-minute intermission forjrefreshmehto. This sort of thing continueduptothevery callows, and George Benton went proudly ' home in the blackcap, before a wailing au'dj. ■ ence of the sweetest and best that the region could produce. His grave had fresh flowen 00 it every day for awhile, and the head stone bore these words, undsr a hand point. The brave cashier's heedstone had this inscription: " Be pure, honest, Bober, in ? ; dustriou*, considerate, and you will never-i' Nobody knows who gave the order to le«e it that way, but it was given.
