strange woman, "bid me ax you for the ould tobaccy-box you promised him last night."
“Well, but he promised me a handkerchy; have you got it ?”
"I have," replied the other, producing it—“but then, I'm not to give it to you, unless you give me the box for it."
"But I haven't the box now," said Sarah, "how-and-ever I'll get it for him."
"Are you sure that you can an' will?" enquired the other.
"I had it in my hand yesterday," she said, "an' if it's to be had I'll get it." "Well, then," observed the other, mildly, "as soon as you get him the box, he'll give you this handkerchy; but not till then."
"Ha!" she exclaimed, kindling, "is that his bargain; does he think I'd thrick him or cheat him?-hand it here."
"I can't," replied the other; "I'm only to give it to you when I get the box."
"Hand it here, I say," returned Sarah, whose eyes flashed in a moment; "it's Peggy Murray's rag, I suppose-hand it here, I bid you.'
The woman shook her head, and replied, "I can't;-not till you get the Box."
Sarah replied not a word, but sprang at it, and in a minute had it in her hands.
"I would tear it this minute into ribbons," she exclaimed with eyes of fire and glowing cheeks, "and tramp it undher my feet, too; only that I want it to show her, that I may have the advantage over her."
There was a sharp, fierce smile of triumph on her features as she spoke ; and altogether her face sparkled with singular animation and beauty.
"God bless me !" said the strange woman, looking at her with a wondering yet serious expression of counte"I wanst knew a face like yours, an' a temper the aquil of it—at any rate, my good girl, you don't pay much respect to a stranger. Is your step-mother at home?"
"She is not, but my father is ; however, I don't think he'd see you now.
My stepmother's gone to Darby Skinadre, the mealmonger's."
"An' if you see her," replied the other, "you'll know her by a score on her cheek-ha, ha, ha; an' when you see it, maybe you'll thank God that I'm not your stepdaughter."
"Isn't there a family named Sullivan that lives not far from Skinadre's ?" "There is; Jerry Sullivan; it's his daughter that's the beauty-Gra Gal Sullivan. Little she knows what's preparin' for her!"
"How am I to go to Skinadre's from this ?" asked the woman.
"Up by that road there; any one will tell you as you go along.”
"Thank you, dear," replied the woman, tenderly ; "God bless you; you are a wild girl, sure enough; but, above all things, afore I go, don't forget the box for-for-och, forCharley Hanlon. God bless you a colleen machree, an' make you what you ought to be !"
Sarah, during many a long day, had not heard herself addressed in an accent of kindness or affection; for it would be wrong to bestow upon the rude attachment which her father entertained for her, or his surly mode of expressing it, any term that could indicate tenderness, even in a remote degree. She looked, therefore, at the woman earnestly, and as she did so her whole manner changed to one of melancholy and kindness. A soft and benign expression came like the dawn of breaking day over her features, her voice fell into natural melody and sweetness, and approaching her companion, she took her hand and exclaimed
