Alice w:u* returning home from visiting the Lester family One day, aud had just emerged from the cross street into Broadway, when n gaily decorated' sleigh passed, filled with ladies and gent) m n of ncr acquaintance.

"There is no knowing j ' she takes very curious notions, sometimes. Only ' think of her purchasing a set of uheap furs, when, to my certain knowledge, her motliar wanted her, to have something like mine.' ' She certainly could afford the most fashionable and expensive.' ' Of course; and that's what makes it appear so strange.' It seemed somewhat strange to Oeorgo Benton, too, for he had heard the circumstances of the purchase, from his sister, who was with Alice at the time ; but still he believed that she must have had a good motive for the net—Miss Durnnd did not often act unreasonably. So thought he. '* She has been to see (Some one in Anii street; where only poor families live. That is l'aot number two,' aud he began to make deductions, yet reserved the final inference to be drawn from further premises. Fact number fliVee was furnished not long after.

' This morning reminds me of the resurrection ; road, if you please, the ISth chapter of 1st Corinthians. Alice complied, and while she was reading that sublime argument on the doctrine of future life, Mr. Lester and the ohildreh .had' quietly entered the room.
