It was in a wny that little be¬ tokened such future glory. It la sml to record auch thlugs of an nnceslor, but aa a uiatter of fact he was fairly emuggled iu from Virginia, where n political difference witli Coveiuor Berkeley linil led to his enforced rc- tlreincut; nud so little wna hl.s pres¬ ence desired in the ruritnn colouy that only because of his splendid lulli- tary ability was he allowed to reiunlu. Fur he, beiug by nil nccouula a spirit¬ ed party, gnve the lilup Inws no more attention thnu if they dUI nnt vxliX. aud lu face of liidlguant public opiulou Insisted ou keeping Ciiristmiis nfter tbe fashion uf their comuiou mollier- country.
But with King riilllp nnd the Nnr- ragansetts wngiug war it wns impos- aible to spnre oue who waa bolb n fearless nnd n slilllful Avnrrlor; nnd be- aidea (so sny Ihe nncleut nuunlai his sins brougbt their nwn punishmeul; ao terrible u oue that the inoat ortho¬ dox stood aghast, fur bis eldest son— his heir ami his pride—marrietl a reil- hended witch, the daugbler of n Umcli emigrnnt, who hnd dietl Just as his vessel toucbdl port. There wns no doubt nbout the witchcraft. She wore gny garments of n strange cut, siie snug, iu nn uuknonn tongue, songs of an unearthly sweetness that held passers-by spellbouud uenr her tiny cabin: she had wondrous skill iu iiiM'li..t and siinpies; ami, Inslly, to clinch llie matter, there wns the red henil. Hnt the younger Juiin, wlio had Iriwi led. only Inughed nf the tales wheu he took her for his wife In dellnuce of the world, nml of his fullicr to bool. who, lu spite of ills owu conlnnincy, ideslreil no ilealliiKs with sorcery. :iikI who cnt ofr liiw son  wiili n slillliiii:.
But one Ihlug more weut wllh It— natuely, the old ninn's sword: for llie sou, though uuliivited, eume to the fuuernl nun took it dowu from ils hook ou the wall, declnring thnt of nil the sous be nioue. hh eldest, hnd the right to wenr it. And Inter, when he. too. was .lead, his daughter, being frivol- •us, as became her pnreutnge. melted up the gnld hilt and ran It Into lieails. aud this deed added flume to the fami¬ ly feud, which did not die out. as do most feuds, bnt burued ou for two loug centuries. For lu each generation the head of the oue branch of the IVm- bertons made a formal demand fur the bends ns a lawful nnd Just right, nnd tile represeulallve of Ihe witch IVm berlons, as they are cnlled. ns the eld- eat line, Bcornfully refused; so thnt the quarrel wns consluutly renewed, and would hnve probnbly hnve flour- iabed indeflnltely but that, through In- advertnnce,Iheeldestsonof either side wna entered the same yenr at the gnuie college, nud botli of them being strong and athletic, they were thrown muiii together nnd wrestled theuiselves Inlo a mutual resiwct which gradu¬ ally ripened Into frlendiihip.
Aud thus it cnme nliout that the one introtluced the other tu his sister, Dnmnrls I'einliertou. wlio had oome up for commencement week. Now, Da- niaris was n sight to si>e. By a strnnge run of fate every girl ii: tliat liue Is born with a red head, but lu Damarls, when the suu shone u|kiu It, it was a halo of glory. And her complexion wns ilazzllug. nud her blue eyes were great stars, nuil her dimples came ami
'"I sbnll mnrry her," John returned, briefly nud firmly.
"Very well." Aud ihe old warrior's fnce grew cold.
Cut though for love of her hc lind defied bis father nnd anuounced Ills flrm intention of cleaving to her, he found tlint he hnd leaped over one ob¬ struction to their marriage only to hurl himself ngainst n greater. Dnmnrls. who hnd n flne spirit of lier owu. would hnvc none of him ou sueh term.'.
"If the Oolonei comes to me himself nnd begs rae to honor hiui by Bccept- luK his son's hnnd perhnps I'll think of It.    But not liefore," she said.
Try ns he would Jolin could not shake her from this position.
,So that is how inalters stood witli Jolin [Vinberton when Clirlstmastime —the sensou of peace nnd good-will— cnme around. No wonder thnt he wns pale nnd haggard.
The Christmas dinner conld hardly bo culled a cheerful meal, nor did things brighten Inter wheu ihe young mnu stood gniiug silently out of tbe window.
In the gathering dusk John thought
DEAR    LiDI,      HE     SAID, BTATKLT   DIONITT."
Christmas gift; which, bowcver, as is appropriate, I hope thnt you will con¬ tinue to wenr."
He held out to her the old ca.se of curved  Ivory.
"But they are yours," she said, cou fusedly; nnd from beneath her lowered eyelashes n glnuce fluttered toward John.
"They are yours," the Colonel insist¬ ed: and she took theiu. "Aud nlso I beg that you will bouor me by cou- sentiug to accept my ouly son. and that you will come to my old house r,s its beloved mistress."
,Toliii moved up to her and possessed himself of her liands, "Father gave you the beads, nnd you took them," he said, softly. ".\nd be also gnve you me.    .Vm 1 tnken, too, dear'/"
Daninrht raised her eyes, nnd crept closer; nnd John drew lier into h'i arms.
And so the old Pemberton feud came lo an end ou Christmas uight.—Woin- nu's Uonic Coinpnulon.

2. "The people that walked in dark- nr«s." The people of Judah. They wara at this time under a two-fold daikneaa: lit The darkneaa of nnlward trouble. 8c« 3 Kinin 13: ST; 1«: 44, 17; } Chron. 38: M 12) They were in moral darkneaa. Thpi were attacked by the King of larael ana hy tlie King o( Damaacua. and aftcrwaH by the King of Aaayrla. Oraat mnltitadaa were carried raptirea. er were alain. Ia thia deep affliction of t» Jewiah natian haf old foe* i«*e up afainal her. Tha Edoa- ilea on the aoathaaat and the PhiliatiiKa on the aouthwcet poured in thair troopt niion the devoted laod and added to it* calamltiea. The PhiHatinaa took peima nent posaeaaion of the territory vfiien thay had ovemin, oceupyiaa it and adding it to their dominion. Jndah waa inoeed "brought low and nude naked." 2 Chron. S8: 19. Her eonntfy waa daaolate, har cities were burned with fii«; bar land— strangera devoured it in her prcaence. Iaa. 1: 7. The territory that remained to her waa truly but a very amall remnant, and even that waa threatened. To eacape from theee tronbiea King Ahaa appealed to Tiglath-Pileaer II. of Aaayrla for help. He rsme, and the reault waa that Ahaa hnd to rob the temple and hia palace ot their treasures in order lo pay the re- •-uired tribntc; and, still more, he aaeri- fiecd the independence and honor of tha realm itaelf.
3. "Thon haat multiplied the nation." 'The prophet Showi them the. Meaaiah and Hia times. He would move them to hope, awaken faith, aronae to ri(ht«oua- neaa, by the Tiaioa of good timea eomin(. The only way to lUch a bleaaed coaanm. raation waa by the path of holincas, obc* dience and faith." "They joy before Thee." The prophet notes IT to be a reli- gioua ioy because it ia aaid to be before (Jod—that ia. In His prcMnce and.wini a grateful acknowledaement of Hia bcnenta.
4. "Thou haat broken the yoke." Tho .Tewa were sueeeeaively dellTercd from th* burdensome and lallina yoke of the Aa- Syrians. Chaldeane, Peraiana and Macedo¬ nians, but these delirerancea wer* only a shadow of redemption from the yoke ih .Satan, and that redemption aeema hen especially predicted as if already aeeom- pbshcd. "Aa in the day of Midian." Aa nideon with a handful of men conqaerad t.ic boats of Midian, so Metsiah, the "child" (v. 6), ahall prove to be th* "Prince of peace," and the amall company under him tnall overcome the mighty boata of Antichriat.

The Messiah aboUthe* all war, but lint until Hia foee are either swept away bv Ilia judgments or melted into pmitcnc* and won over to tubmiaaion by Bia MV*.

Opd'a (ratu- itoua gift, upon which man had no claim, John S; 16.
