Things liar Day Ever went right and she was often in a very unhappy humor. Patient As another Job however Jol iii Thompson never protested against the Domestic prerogative of being Cross and scolding. True whenever mrs. John Thompson would Cut him off rather Sciort and say things to him in an unkind tone of voice he would have his own thoughts about the Antler. But he said nothing. Lie would not for the world have wounded the feelings of mrs. John Thompson seemed to have at limes but Little regard for his.

Thompson examined his Hank notices and found that he had Ilire Tho Saiid dollars to pay. He did not look at his Hank Hook for he so distinctly that to had checked to within five dollars the Day before. And now what is to let a done v to said aloud As he sat Down in a chair to collect thoughts. A a any thing Over to Day or. Thompson v said a iii Libor advancing towards the desk.

A come in and i will after running Over a Large bundle of notes and selecting from them a pretty respectable Quantity the Mer Cliant turned to Thompson and said Here is one Trio Sand dollars Wheeling and fails Lairg which Yon can have for a week and five Hundred Louisville which you May have for two a can to Yon say any belter than that a these arc the Best terms. We Cun usually work it off even a Iellar. But if it will accommodate Yon any Yogi Are Welcome to it. A i will Lake it then said Ithompson eagerly clutching the Money and passing his two clucks dated one and two weeks a hand. To was now pretty Well through with All the hns iness friends upon whom he could Call. And to re Lunod to Hie Toro to Talco sound iii Ltd. The Day had proved intensely hot and on his return he found exhausted. It was past twelve of clock and As he fixed his eyes upon the face of a Large clock ticking away in one Corner of the store the minute hand seemed to move wit i a strange rapidity. A a Hal is to he done now a he said half despair , there is iii Friend g in Howard Street who is generally pretty easy i must Sec so off he burned no Street and to his great disappointment found g near which he was seated. A Short three thousand dollars a replied or. Thompson Niccy panic ally. No Chance for me then a said the neighbor withdrawing on the inst Neil. A hum i should think not a soliloquies a or.

I owe two thousand dollars borrowed Money now and to Morrow half of that must let a no with All my borrowing friends except such As Are hard up themselves. What shall 1 do a but or. Thompson like a philosopher As he was readily Canio to the conclusion that sitting there was not going to gel Liis note out of Bank so he sallied Forth still undetermined As to How he should raise the Money. Being in the dry goods line he look the South Side of Market Street and commenced a line of Calls from Frederick Street up. A How a the Money Market to Day a was a is first salutation to a Young Man he had often Coccomo Dacid. A tight enough i want five Hundred a nothing to spare of course a a not a a then 1 can to Stop Here. Good morning a any thing Over to Day a he asked next door a Twenty dollars if that will help Ami any a can to you spare a Hundred by Ohio clock a very Nikoly Call about that time not id if we take in much Yon shall have very Well a said John Thompson Erie ring it upon his memorandum Luik.

But a Fay keep it for me until two of Stock if 1 can to do better i la take it a very Well it is at your entering this in his. Me Prand Jin Book or. Thompson went on his Way. A easy As an old shoe Here i ship pose lips much can you spare to Day t he said carelc�5 not in. After wailing for a Quarter of an hour he came Back wit Sioui having seen him. It lacked now but a Quarter of one. The second person upon whom he called promised to let Lii ii have one Hundred one o clock so he went in there. The store was full of customers and his Friend seemed to care More about attending to them than loaning Money. After wailing ten minutes Thompson moved towards the door saying As he passed out a ill drop in again very Well a said the Man without alluding to Llie known cause of or. To a in and. He next called upon the Friend who was to have returned inc borrowed Money but he found it impossible to raise Over fifty. The two bundled dollars that had been promised a or. Had gone to dinner and left no word with his clerk about it Thompson still was twelve Lindred and fifty dollars Short and in one hour the Bank would close. His Bill Hook showed the existence of several Bills receivable amounting to seven or eight thousand dollars mater iii in Short dates drawn by business men Ood and True. All the Banks had ceased discounting Nind those consequently had been turned Down at the Board and were handed Buck to him. Visions of three and four per cent a month now began to float before his mind and rendered desperate he selected notes to the amount of fifteen Hundred dollars and proceeded to the office of a noted broker who received him with a cold nod. 1 went to get these notes done or. Pm or. P went Over them very slowly remarking a she went or rather dropping a few words at a time As if talking to Liim self a rather weak a a too Longio run a a a another name a pc. A pc. A if you can get another Good name on these i Ali iii 1 Call get them done for a its too late to talk about another name 1 must have the Money at a the drawer of these notes is rather ticklish it is thought. If they were stronger there would be no difficulty. Done to you think you could easily get your Friend to put his name upon it t not to is gone to his dinner and t have no Lime to lose. If Yon think you can to gel them done 1 must go to or. C a a ill try my Best for you. Come in half an hour. In the interim or. Thompson went to an Exchange office and got his Money discounted. This was done at a loss of fifty dollars. True to the minute a Quarter before three or. H Hoins soil was at or. P is office. Or. P was not there. He sat for five minutes in a stale of mental Tortore which few can imagine except those who have suffered a like infliction when or. entered. A have Yon got them done for me a . Thompson eagerly. A no i have Noi a said the broker coldly 1 could find hut one Man who would do them at All and his charge was higher than 1 Felt Vil Liing to contract to pay before 1 saw a what does he ask a said or Thompson eagerly. A three and a half per cent a month. Or. Thompson groaned aloud. He looked at his watch it. Lacked eight minutes of three. A can you get it in time a 1 will give you the Noney al once and can get it from him Mysell. A a then Lei me have it the Cal dilation was made and As the notes had 11 average of two months , the discount was seven per cent., which added to the brokers commission of one per cent took off from or. Thompsons fifteen Hundred dollars the round sum of one Huud Ruxi and in Cury dollars. Tie clock Slick Ihrcke just As or. Thompson set his foot upon the Steps of the his a Olaf safely in his Possession he retired to his store mid lifter entering ii the Cash and ached badly and he Felt fever Sli. Visions of Tomc and an hours retirement then Caine ii in his thoughts. He remmely red the pleasant smile with which his wife had pm rcd with him in the mar thing and the sweetly uttered a come Home soon dear father a of his Little prattling boy if Ever Home in a Sweet to a Man it is after the racking anxieties of such a Day As that Ali rough which or. Thompson had passed and toward it with a feeling Akin to that of the tempest tossed Mariner when he turns his prow towards the land of his nativity. Nothing is so. Calculated to sour the mind of Man thus circumstanced and make Home unpleasant to him As to find the Little Domestic trials All operating to make his wife irritable and out of temper. His own anxieties have been of a character so important to the peace and Welm it eing of his fun icily that the tron los inside it to Domestic duties seem like a trifles Light is air in comparison and to find his Home made unpleasant on account of them is Niobe than he had looked for and More than he con Well Bear. For the Sake of his wife a peace of mind he breathes not his own difficulties and puts on a cheerful face while his feelings Are iii Ler a Cloud. To find her unwilling to hear her part and constantly marring his Domestic comforts sour looks tends to irritate and discourage him. It is not to be wondered that some under such circumstances become Cross or neglect Fol of their fair Zilius. But let us follow liar. Thiompson Honie to dinner. On entering the parlor he saw at a glance that something was wrong. There was a dark scowl ii Poi the brow of mrs. Thompson. She rang the Bell for dinner without uttering a word and after sundry delays it was served up in about half an hour from Llie Lime or. Thompson came iii. Seals were taken at the table ill profound silence. On the part of or. Thompson there was no desire to speak. For he a new that All a bit Vas Voni Inpil vans hit a single word alien the Avalanche would break throw High All its barriers and he had no desire to witness its fury. But his heart Felt like Lead in his bosom. His silence however was not to prove an antidote. There was no Salt upon the table. A no Salt upon the table. I declare said mrs. Thompson in a High pitched voice ringing her table Bell , a i never can gel the fable set right.�?T. The Salt cellars were brought and Nancy received a sound berating for her . Scarcely had she got Back into tie kill Beni when it was discovered that there were no arge spoons upon the table and with sundry of disquietude of mind the Bell is rung again. A i can Tell you what it is Nancy a began Virs Thompson As the Domestic entered a a in be no notion of having things done after this fashion. Here a not a single spoon upon the table nor no water either us i live. Nancy Lilis is Loo bad i wont put Nancy disappeared and mrs Thiompson continued the fact is or. Thompson in a Ove Relone and completely worn out. I done to see a hit of peace of my life. You done to seem to think it any thing but i Only Wisla Yon had it to men think our work nothing. A Why what is the matter my dear ? it was easy enough to get the Salt and the spoons and the water without gelling into a fever about for the first Lime in his life or. Thompson spoke in a reproving Lone and on the instant his better half took fire. A getting into a fever about it ? a lion a getting into a fever ? or. Thompson what do you mean a a just what i say mrs. Thompson. That it was easy enough to get the things wanted without losing who lost temper i d like to know i done to like such insinuations and wont put up with them. You men think we never have any trouble. You gel up in the morning and have every thing to your hand and go off to your business and come Home again and every thing is done for a and with a very bad Grace sometimes too a rejoined or. Trio Siipson. This was too Inich for mrs. Thompson to Bear and bursting into Lenis she left the table and retired to her Chanier. It was sometime before or. Thompsons irritated feelings would allow him to follow his wife but he soon yielded to belter thoughts and slowly ascended the stairs that led to the chamlies. He found his wife lying upon the bed sobbing what to do he did not exactly know but his better feelings had returned and As he was heartily sorry Ifor what he had said he Felt that it was necessary to do Somei Hinig. He first of All called Lier tenderly by her name but she made Lio answer. This again irritated him he had no idea of being trifled with. He was himself a straight Forward kind of a Man and when he so offered terms As to speak kindly he very naturally though Lii mrs. Rii Ompson ought to meet him half Way. A Sarah he said once More in a tone slightly modified from its Peculiar exp Ion of tenderness. But there was no reply. A Sarah a he again repeated in a voice still affectionate and a Little louder. But still there was no answer. Again his evil Genius overcame him and he said roughly a Sarah if you think to play the fool Wilh inc Yon a re mistaken. 1 have borne your in Humours Long enough Ovid now you must change a Little for my accommodation or there will be Iro Tihle in the wigwam. I have spoken out at last Liat has been boiling up a Long Lime. Home has ceased to be a pleasant place to me and All because of you Cloudy brow and continual fault finding. Scold your ser i Anis in the Kitchen and Wear you air . To them if Tivey do wrong but done to punish me with their Mise mentors. And now i am go ing to the store-1 shall expect when 1 return at night a Picasso ter reception than i generally get so Good mrs. Thompson had remained silent Wheir. Spoken to by her husband for the Ainis ble punishing iii by exciting his sympathies to a painful degree in her behalf bit in this lie Hud foiled her. And How that be had reall y gone for she heard the Street door bang after him she be a to think a Little Emberly of the of such a state of thugs although often disposed in be fret Fril towards him when things went wrong in her Domestic concerns. Pride whispered Many spirited thoughts in her ear but the ground work of real Good sense that was at the Bottom of her character hushed into silence the insidious suggestions. To win her Hub acid Bock from this strange mood Iliad become her ruling desire Long before the hour of his return had arrived and when the door Bell rang at dusk she was instant to answer it and receive him with a Calm affectionate but sad smile for she Cotile not banish from her heart the consciousness that he was angry with her and not without a cause. Or. Tho Nipson was evidently taken by Surprise. He had hot prepared himself for such a reception. He had expected coolness for two or three Days and he had nerved himself to go through it like a Man. He had resolve also to conquer at All hazards. He did not speak at the moment but took her hand and with a kind Pressie re led her into the room and seated himself beside her on the sofa., a Sarali a he said in a tone of great kindness a you have no doubt Thoi Iglitz my conduct today strange. Let me explain it to you. 1 have great Trot Bles in my business and often distressing anxieties. Particularly in these times of unexampled commercial difficulties 1 find it almost ,.even with the great esl sacrifices to get along. But with noise of these things have i Wisla d to trouble but you have acted differently towards me. Your difficulties with your domestics have irritated Yogi and you have too often allowed your feelings of irritation 16 expend themselves upon me. Often when a Little attention on your part would have made every thing go right you five trusted to servants you knew to be careless and then disturbed the pleasures of a Cal by scolding them or grumbling through it on Jaccoi iii of your difficulties. A my dear Sarah this is or incr. This morning 1 had greater difficulty to get my note out of the Bank than Ever and after running in Roux a to a hot Sun and enduring kids of mortify Fig denials in my attempts to borrow Money Hud in the end to sacrifice one Hun dred and seventy dollars More Tonii 1 now make in a month to gel Money from a heartless broker. The clock struck three As 1 in. Tired the Bank. Two minutes later and my note would have been protested and 1 a Wilh a violent head ache and burning Wilh a fever caused by great mental excitement 1 came Home at dinner time anxious for a Little quiet of mind to recover myself Bui when i found you ready to annoy me about some trifling neglect of the servant 1 could not endure it. I should not have spoken if 1 had reflected a moment but it pay be As mrs. Thompson made no answer but twined her arms around the neck of her husband and looked up into his face with mild repentant eyes that were running Over Wilh it was their first and last quarrel. The Pine tree shilling. By Nathaniel Hawthorn. Captain John Hull was tie mint Minster of acid coined All the Money that was made there. His was a new line of business for ill the earlier the Colony the current coinage consisted of the Gold and Silver Money of England Portugal and Spain. These coins Beisig scarce the people were often forced to barter la Weir commodities instead of Selling them. For instance if a Man wanted to buy a coat he perhaps a Bear ski ii for it. If he wished for a barrel of molasses he might Purchase it with a pile of Pine Bonds. Musket bullets were used instead of the indians Hud u sort of Money culled Wampum which was made of Clam shells and this strange sort of specie was likewise taken in Payi Kirit of debts by the English settlers. Bank Bills had never been heard of. There was not Money enough of any kind in Many parts of the country to pay their ministers so that they ind sometimes to take quintals of iii bushels of Corn or cords of Wood inst it of Silver or Gold. As the Ople grew More numerous and their Trade Wilh one another increased the want of current Motiey was still More Siisi by Felt to Supply , the general court passed a Law for establish Rig a coinage of shillings sixpence and that spences. Captain John Hull was appointed to this Money and was to have about one shilling out of every Twenty to pay Linin for his trouble of making them. Hereupon All the old Silver in the Colony was handed Over to Captain John Hull the battered Silver cans and Tate Kords 1 suppose and Sliver buckles and broken spoons and whose name 1 do not know hut we Wilt Call her Betsey. Betsey was a Filici Hearty Damsel by no Means As slender As some Young ladies of our own Days. In tie contrary having always fed heartily on pumpkin Quot pies doughnuts Indian puddings and other Puritan dainties she was of round and plump is a pudding. With this round Rosy miss Betsey did Samuel Sewell fall in ivc. As he was a Yoi Irig Man of Good character industrious to business and a member of the Church the mint master very readily gave his consent. A a yes you May take Here said he in his rough Way a and you will find her a heavy Burden on the. Wedding Day we May suppose that honest Hull dressed himself a a Plain coloured coat All the buttons of which were made of Pine tree shillings. The buttons of ins Waistcoat were sixpence and the Knees of his Small clothes were buttoned with Silver three pences. Thus attired to sat with great his grandfathers chair and being a portly old gentleman he completely filed it from Elbow to Elbow. On the opposite Side of the room Between her Bride mods sat miss Betsey. She was blushing with All her might and looked like a full Bloom Pertnoy a great red Apple or any other round and sea Riel object. There Loo was the Bride Krooni dressed in a Fine purple coat and Gold lace Waistcoat with As much other finery As the Peri Ian Laws and customs would allow him to put on. His hair was crop close to his head because gov. Endicott had forbidden airy Man to Wear it below the ears. But he was a very personable Yoning Man and so Ali ought the Bride maids and miss Betsey herself. The mint master was also pleased with his new son in Law especially As he had said nothing at All about her portion. So when the marriage ceremony was Over Captain Hall Lii Speed a word to two of his servants who or Vert a it Nulu slut Rullier Tocu lug Ging in a Large pair of Scales. They were such a pair As wholesale merchants use for so Pigutt to a evil by oct moodily now to weighed in them. A daughter Betsey a said the mint master a go into one Side of the miss bits Cyl or mrs. Sewell As we now Call Here did As she was bid like a Dutiful child without airy questions of Why and wherefore. But what her father coi ild mean unless to make Lier Hub acid pay for her by the Pound in which Case lie would have a dear bargain she had not the least idea. A and now a said honest John Hull to his servants a a bring that Box the Box to in iii Masler pointed was a huge Square Iron bound Oaken cd Iest it was big enough my children for All four of Yon to play hide and seek in. The servants tugged with might and main but could not lift this enormous receptacle and we re finally obliged to drag it across the floor. Captain Hull then took a key out of his Girdle unlocked the Chest and lifted its ponderous lid. Behold it wus of Nitro the brim of Congo la As. Bright Pitie shill Tigs from the mint and Samuel Sewell began to think trial his father in Law had got Possession of All the Money in Massachusetts Treasury. But it was Only the mint masters honest Shire of the coinage. Then the servants at Captain hulls command heaped double hand Fiill of shillings into one Side of the Scales while Betsy remained in Hie other. , Jingle went the shillings is handful after hand till was thrown in till plump and ponderous As she was they fairly weighed the Young lady from the floor. A there son Sewell a cried the Miot master resuming his seat in a chair a take these shillings for my daughters portion. Use he kindly and Hank heaven for her.
