EFFIE STAITLBT
DY  LUCRETI.^. CKAPTKR 1-
A splendid carriage stopped heloie aetaiely maneion, while its inmaio, the benutiful tda Lea-., lie, one of the reigninij belles of New York, alighted. As ahe ran hasiily up (he steps ofh*^ father's dwelling, ibc door opened,andatniddlo. aged lady, with npnle and sorTowfulcouiflenance,- camo forth, occompanied by a fafr young'girl of eome seventeen years : both were, clafl ;ih "deep morning. One glancoai theirunpretohdlngap. pearance sufficed to convince the,proud beauty rhat they did not belong to the circle in which she moved, a.id.jwondering that Ih'^ should call ihero, che passed inlo "the house."    ¦-^¦-¦".-'
Within the gorgeously fuToisfaed porlbr that Ida entcred"feat alady ofsome fony-fiveyeatB of age. She waa richly and'tashionahly attired, and though in her younger dtiye ahe might perhaps havo been aa beautiful aa Jier d&ugbier, yet, now lhat the freshness, of youth^ had faded from her lace, DO pleasing expression lingered therfl, for in every lineament was plainly written ihe coIdi haughty, aeUish spirit wittiin.
"Mamma.V exclaimed Ida, addresaing her as, diveaiing heraelf of hat and nianiiila. she threw herself upon a velvet lounge. ¦' uho were those peraona that have juf I honored yoii with iheir company?"
" Vou have heard your laiher apeak ot hia cousin, Mr.  Stanley, hnve you not ?"  replied .   iVIrs. Ireslie.
The young lady ap^enied.
"Those whom you met were Mrs. Stanley and hor daughter. Mr. Stanley wae very weal¬ thy ; but a shorl iimo since he lost his property, leaving hi^ widow nnd daughter destitute; so lhey have ^rpiurned lo this place to seek somc employmeni by which lo mainlain iheftiselves.
" But what ia all this to us ?" inquired Ida.
" Why, a3 our families were intimate betbre
lhey removed to P J. and withal, ob your
lather was once under sorae obligations to M; Stanley, perhaps Mrs. Stanley imagined that I should 80 far forget our present relation as to receive her as a friend."
" Really !*' exclaimed Ida, while a scornful smile curled her beauiiful lip. " But how came papa to be indebted to them ?"
"Several yeara ago,Ida before youcan re member, your faiher was dreadfully embarraesed in business, and, just as ho was expected to fail, Mr. Stanley loatwd him large suma ol money, EO that he was enabled lo pay ; and forluniiie was It for mo that he did so, for surely I never could have survived the loss ofour properly." And Mra. Leslie leaned back in her rocking- chair, and fanned heraelf with great vigor.
' * Fortunate enough ! It must be shocking to be poor!" echoed Ida, as she arose languidly and advanced to a mirror to adjust her Jress. " Bul only think, Mra. Munroe haa relused to be my mantua-maker any longer., merely because I told her plainly to-day ihat that cvcning-dresa was not made as I ordered It. She very coolly informed me that I could have her services no longer. These work-people arc Insufferable! But whai is lo be done ? There is no posaibilily oJ obtaining anoiher ai present; ahd there is that roEo-colored satin ihat tniist be made," said the young lady, in despair.
" There .•" exclaimed Mrs. Leslie, " 1 pre¬ sume the Stanleys will make it. I adviaed Mrs. Stanley lo lako in sewing. That will be very convenient for ua just now, and will save usa world of trouble. " Besides," added Mrs. Les¬ Ue, with avery complnceni air, •' ii will aa.sist them very much, you know."
" Well, thatis a relief," said Ida, drawing a long breath.
She looked relieved, decidedly; lor, as she turned again to the mirror, she surveyed: the reflection ofher owu fair self with evident satis¬ faction. Fair and lovely, indeed, was the out- .M'ard form—beautiful ihc casket; alas, that the spirit within ao sadly differed !
"Ida!" exclaimed Mrs.Leslie, starting up as if some ncw thought had suddenly entered her mind, " be aure not to mention thia affair before your faiher, for he has always fancied himself under everlasting obligationa to the Stanleys, and is never done talking ofour indebtedness to them jand, did he know thnt any ofthe family were dealitute, he would bring them lo his own house at once, wiihont hearing aword to"the contrary ; so be careful noi to speak of it before him."
" Never Iear," replied Ida; " 1 am not par¬ ticularly anxious for tho honor of having pour relationa in the houae lo introduce to our acquain. tances ; not I. If people aro unfonunate. it is their concern, not ours."
And, with this oiniablc remark, the ^oung lady, apparently Eaiisfied with examining heraelf at the mirror, reiurned to her lounge; and, tak¬ ing up the laat new novel, was soon absorbed in the unparalleled sufierings of its lovely heroine.
CHAPTEE   11.
A moi.ih passed since the conver.^aiion relau ed in the la-si chapter, and the sun of a suUry summer's day was shining over thc vast city.— The atreets wore something of a deserie J look; for, though it wan three o'clock, P. M., the heal wae aiill bo exceedingly oppressive, that all who were not compelled to do otherwise were glad 10 remain quieily within doors.
The merchant leaned idly ovor his ledger theardent worshipper of Mammon abated some' what of his eager pursuit after gain, and seem¬ ed conteni to forego, at least for thai day, the chance of making any lucky speculations. The lawyer leaned back in his arm chair, and, in spite of thc muaiy rolls of parchment before him, thai appeared to .call his attention, deter mined to take it easy until it becamo cooler.
Bm, though many thus comforiably whilcd away the time, by far the larger portion in the great ciiy might not rest for a moment from their daily labor. No; ihrough the scorching heat of summer, and the piercing cold of win¬ ter, all through tlie day, and often far into lhe night, must the children of poveriy loi!—toil wearily, unceasingly, to obtain a scariiy aub. sistence. ¦
Poverty is, indeed, a bitter portion, ospeciaiiy when it comes to those who have been nursed in the lap of affluence, and deprive ihem! of all thai they bave been accustomed to love;! when it opens iheir eyes and forces them, ihough un. willingly, to believe that the triends who(n they loved end trusted wero friends in proaperity, end, wben rhe Jiour "f adversiiy dame, were but atrangers; and when, in addition to all this, the husband and laiher is taken away, and his helpless family deprived of the arm that has been their sirengih, are loft lo struggle on alone in ,thia .cold and selfish world, then, indeed, is poverty bmer, doubly bitier. What would iia lone children do were ii not lor ihe hope of a rest hereafter, of a home in heaven ?
So ihought Mrs. Stanley, as she sat m the narrow room thcy now call home, watching her idofiied daughter, as, with flushed cheek and busy fingera, ahe was placing the last stitches in a garment thai boih. mother and daughter had been busily employed in making during the whole of that warm ted:ous da^. .Tho^ counte¬ nance of Mrs. Stanley was expreoaive of deep aorrow. but not ofdeapau-; though <very tea- lure of thai pale, ihiri' face iold' thar grief and deep affliction had been hers, yetover aJIbreath- ed a spirit of raeekneas, of holy resignaiion.
And Effie, how lovely sholooked aa^e hem
over tier sewing, ihe rich color on her fcheek,
her dark hoir gathered into a knot behind, from
which a few careless ringlets felUn oiihfcrslde \
And whon sho raised her head, ond you inet the

when her father^Waa'^taks^fawityi so aiunning was the bidiw.lhaUittjUtihp'. agony of her first grief, ^ffiofdra-iioriilibiadoMd herself «o un- restramed'-:wrro'w.\ Frp^ however, she
waa arousedlby the t^nscioQsneRS of (tioir chang¬ ed <^hditi*Q;--8hb'feit that the present shuation of affafraJcftUed for her exe and, wiib a
jmi^hlyJeJoVii'she 'succeeded, in calling hor feelinga, jpui'd resolved that, so long as a fanlt iiig^re^Qinedi'not adebi should remain uncan- CBUed;'; When ihe last creditor,was satiafied, fiothing of consequfince remained, and she be. gtuifo'consider what wos to bedone fbr the future niainienanoe of herself and" remaining parent, who was iu feeble healih.
Effie's t'ducaiion waa superior; m music especj-illy ^he fixcelled ; and, as Mra. Sianloy thought that her former frieiid, Mrs.' Leslie, nrould assist her daughter in obiaining scholars, they reiurned to New York. Bul how false is (he friendship of the world .' Mrs. Lenh'e re- ceived lhe destiiuiewidow'and orphan ofMr. Stanley, to whose, generosity .she owed all .her wealthy with.A'dialant and .haughty air, and in answer to Mra.- Stanley's inquiries; coldly ad¬ vised her 10 take in sewing, informing her that one 30 young as her daughter would not be con¬ sidered competent to teach. Deeply did Mrs. Sttinley feel the changed rnanner of one who once made such great professions of friendship, and, with un additional weight ai her already crushed heart, she arose with her daughler to .Jeave.
Noi one word of kindness, not one expression of sympathy, came from the lips ol Mrs. LaB< lie; she merely remarked that, if Mrs. Stanley concluded to sew, ehe. mighi, if she would' call there, furnish her with some employmeni.
Sadly, and with an aching heart, Mra. Stan¬ ley descended the steps ; sho hnd neither ex pected nor desired pecuniary aid, bul she had expected, in her present hour of affliction, some Uttle kindness from Mrs. Leslie, at least to show that former services wore not forgotten.
As the two pasaed along the street, more ihat^ ever did iliai motlier feel ihe aad change in their condition. The thought ofher young daughter, with all her talents and accomplishments, spending her life as a seamstress, exchanging the books and music lhat she so dearly loved for the constani use of the needle, was painful; but there was no aliernative. Having rented two small rooms in ihe second story of a build¬ ing inhabited by the poorer class of people, the mother and daughter, for lhe first time thrown upon their own resources for suppori, entered their new occupation.
Notwithstanding the sudden change from ease and luxury lo toil and privation, Effle never murmured or complained; her dearest wish was to see her beloved patent free from the necessi¬ ty of pursuing that employment for which her feeble health so unfitted her; and, with this object ever before her, day after day ihe devoted daughler plied her needle as conien- tcdiy aa ifshe had never known any other con¬ dition in life.
Bul to rcmrii, after our long digree.-*ion, to the day on which our chapter opens.
The dress which we found our heroine cm- ployed in making was ai length finished, and Effie arose with a cheerful air, and, cnrrying it to Mrs. Stanley lor inspection, said—
" Ib it not dore in quite a workmanlike man¬ ner, conaidering the shortness ot my practice? Ifl continue to succeed as well aa I have done, Ishall be a famous dressmaker aoon, and then wq need not want for anything. Cheer up, dearest moiher ; we shall see happy days yet." And Effie looked up with a glad, hopeful smile into thc pale end sad face that boot so lovingly over her.
*'I can never be oiherwise than happy while you are with me, my precious one," said Mrs. Stanley, with much emotion, aa she clasped her daughter in her arma. " But it ia lime now for you to go, my child, if you intend to carry tho dress to Mrs. Lincoln, to-nighi; for I fear ihal it will be dark before you can return."
Whh a light atep, and a heart buoyani wiih hope, Effie went forth upon her errand.
The sun had ceased to shed hia scorching raya upon the parched earth, and the cool zephyrs swept refreshingly through the narrow streets and alleys of the pent-up ciiy. After traversing several narrow atreets, EfBc entered Broadway. The sidewalk waa thronged with the raullitudc who were enjoying a promenade after the heat oflhe day ; and, aa she mingled wilh the crowd, did ihehaughty procession of wealth and fashion not once recall to her lhe time when she stood as high inthe vorld as any of thoso who now passed her so proudly by ? No: "all the splendor around her passed unheeded, her mind waa en- gro.ssed wilh other thoughta; she was musing upon the succesa with which her efforts to obtain a livelihood had been rewarded, and was think¬ ing with delight how she would toil forthe com. fori ofher idolized mother. Bright were the visions that flitted before _her fancy ; ever seeing the sunshine beyond the clonds, already Effie, in imagination, beheld her beloved parent sur¬ rounded again by ease and plenty, and, with a counienancfi radiant wiih hope, she trod lightly onward.
Atas, sweet Effie, thai thy ardeni hopes may never bo realized ! that thy young iieart must again be wrung with ngony! that ihou ; must drink to the very dregs the cup of sorrow!
Leisurely walking down Broadway were iwo young genllemen, ffhose bearing denoted thai they belonged to the higher class of aociety.
" Did you aee thai face, Arthurt" observed the (aller of the two to hia companion, as Effie glided by.
•'No, I did not observe: bul certainly it must have been remarkable indeed to interest the invulnerable Clarence Hamilton somuch," laughingly replied his companion, as he saw the deep inlerest with which Clarence regarded the retreating form of Effie.
It certainly was the m'osl loveable counicn- ance thai I ever saw,"  responded Clarence,
earneatly, as Effie at length vanished irom his sight.
" Well done, Clarence, you've lost your hearl at last." replied hie friend. *' This fair stran- ger has effected what all tbo charming beauties in Europe and America have failed to do. Hope it may be my good fortune (0 fall in wiih thia lovoly being some day ; bui, good-by, Clar¬ ence, I have an engagement thai X had nenrly for¬ goiten. Success to you in finding out your fair incognito!" continued Arihur, gayly, aa he withdrew his arm from lhat of h and retraced his steps.
Thoughtfully, Clarence Hamilton passed on¬ ward ; his heart was stirred with new emoiiona. He had mingled in the society ofthe high-bom beautiea of foreign climes, and cazed upon Ital¬ ia's dark-eyed daughters, with admiralion, it is true, bul not with love. He was lired of lhe heanlessneas which he had found in his travels up and down ihe world ; he yearned for some¬ thing more to lovo tban mere external beauty, mere elegant accomplishment; and the bright i confiding expression that Ht np the feaiures of the fair young stranger, whom ho had beheld he felt was the index of a lovmg heart. '
\vn3 thesame that tfaieeihoiiihs before he: had beheld radiant with hope, bdt now iso hopeleaaly sad, so touchingly mournfiil^WaB'iis expression, that:his desire.lo kaow,something jnoie.pi the fair being, who from ibe firat hadrso'strangely iateraafed him,' became-intense; and lurning, heToilowed ihe .young alrar^ger, as ahe nasBBd rapidly along ihopayemeht,until he wbb suddenly arrested by the aaUiiaiion of:a friend jnst return¬ ed lo.ihe citj.  -
Leaving the diaappoinied'Clarence, let us fof- low our old friend Effie; as wilh the noiseless speed of a bird on the wing,' she glidea swiftly from street Id street, th^n threading several al¬ leys, teeming with wretcheditess, she paused at lepgth, heforea building far more' miserable in appearanceihan that in which we "first found ihem located.      ' , ,
Up the rickeiy ffighis of siairs, she hurries wilh lhe same bireaihliBss haste,-pauaing nolun- lil she reachesihe third story, when, aofily rai¬ sing a latch, aho enters her home. -    >
Let usglancs foramomenl within that wretch¬ ed room. Upon a narrow couch, pale, wasted lo a shadow, evidently in the last stages of con- sumpiion, lies thai widowed mother, sii cherish¬ ed, so idolized by ber only child.
It muat have heen atem_ neceasity, indeed, lo have called that child away even for a moment, at .^iicA a time^ and stern indeed  h was..
Depending solely upon her needle for suppori, with nothing save the prodoce of those weary stitches to supply every want, Effie. was com¬ pelled lo leave her helpless parent atone,, and carry home the ^froiia of^ her nightly labor, thai vgilh the scanty pittance due for her exhausting toil, she m^ht satisfy tbe demands^of the heart¬ less landlord, who had threatened tb turn thoae two, ao delicately reared, houseless and home¬ less into the streel on the morrow.
Sad indeed has been lhe lot of our friends, since they were left loslruggle alone wilh thta cold world. Mrs. Stanley's heallh soon failed, so lhat she became utterly unable to assist in iheir niuiunl support, nnd though Eflio toiled night and day, yet pinching want stared them in the fdte; they had been compelled to re¬ move from their first home, lo lho atill more wretched one in which we find Ihem.
Yet Effie felt that for herself ahe could en¬ dure anything, if her cheriahed moiher only might be spared.
But ah ! fond daughler, «fo no secret misgiv¬ ings steal over your spirit, os day by day you aee that frail mother sinking ?
That hoctic flush, thai liacking cough, do they not whisper (hat she, so loved, is paasing away? '     i        e
But let us turn lo another scene.
Wiihin a magnificent saloon, on this same New Year'sEve, was assemhied a gay crowd of wealth and faahion.
Amid the brilliani throng of fair faces aud fair forms that graced the room, Ida Leslie shone pre eminent. Admirers crowded around her, eager to pay their compliihents to the belle of lhe evening. But Ida, though her beautiful lip was wreathed wilh the sweeicst smiles, within was secretly chagrined as she beheld Clarence Ilainillon, whose attentions she coveted above all others, evidenily perfectly indiflerenl to her cnarras. - '
'Inlenied and accomplished, possessed ofa fine peraon,and wiihal ofa princely fortune, Clarence Hamilton was an objeci of .special at- Taction to the fair sex.
Ida Leslie, in particular, had resolved to al- lach him to her train of admirers, and ihai tiighi, aa, robed in satin, and sparkling with jewels, ahe alood before the mirror in her own dressing-room, and gazed upon the reflection of her faultless form, hor cheek flushed," and her eye beamed with triumph, as she thought of Clarence Hamilton, and of the brilliant con¬ quest that she fell confident would be hers. ¦
Ahl Ida Leslie, outward lovefiness alone, ihough it may charm for a while, yei, if the graces of the heart are wanting, transient indeed ia its power. Clarence Hamilton thinks noi of you proud beauly as he stands in that bril¬ liant crowd. The shade of ihought resting up- on his noble counienance tells tbat his heart is far away. Visions of the pale, aweet faco. which a few houra before he had casually beheld engross his thoughis, the aame that from the firEt had been ao ind^ibly impressed upon his memory, and all around him is foigotten-
Midnight over the city. From the hall of merriment slill cornea the sound oi music, and of the tread of merry feei as ihey glide in the dance, but over the lowly home of Effie, the Angel of Deaih is hovering.
A welcome messenger he comes to ihe worn ipirit, tired of carih's changes, and panting to plume the wing for its heavenward flight, but to the lonely ono who raus! be left behind, what biiier sorrow is in the summons !
" Effie, my precious one," faintly murmurs the dying mother. " I leave you—but not alono. Failier—keep her! Effie, dearest—weep—not— I—am—going—homo. Once—more—my child ! ,Ii was a long embrace, but ai length the arms relazed their hold; a tranquil calm crept over lhe cheek; the angelic light that beamed from those eyes waa fading, fading : but the" soul, as it passed, shed its holy, heavenly likeness upon the peaceful hrow. The wenry spirit had gone 10 ita reward, and with a piercing shripk Effie sank uponr the floor.
0, stricken orphan, iho dopth of the anguish thai wrings ihy soul me may not know ! dotl help ihfo. in thine agony !
CUAPTEn IV.
Tiiree daya passed away, and in tJmt lonely room, by its solitary window, sat the lonely or¬ phan. To Efiie, what a world of anguish had been concentrated in ihoae few days ! You who have lost a mother, and to whom that mother waa the only friend in the wido world, may know her feelinga, as ahe sat by that lifeless form, forcing back the scalding tears, Je.9i ihey should tail upon ihe rich satin that she must eml.roidor lo obtain meana to give ihat precioua dnst a deceni burial.

There was nothing to live for now; the ob- jecnhai had bound her lo lite waa gone, her las* hope blotlQd OUl. and the despairing glonce of lhat tearless eye told of the anguish thai wrung her soul, flour afier hour passed on, but all unheeded: the shades of darkness fell oronnd, but Btill, immovablo as astaiue.her head resting upon her hand, sat the lonely orphan.
Softly the moonlight fell upon the earth, and Willi piiyinfi eyea, the pure stars looked into that lowly chamber, and something in that heav. enly radiance at length brought relief. Still gazing upward into that glorious eky she aat_ hm the aspect of despair had vanished; teara, gusliing tears, rolled freely down her cheek, and in Ihose blesaed leara lhe anguish of tho. crush ed spirit passed away. From the starry heighie above, that angel-mother seemed to whisper, as ofold, aweet words of love, and like "the shadow of a great-rock in a weary land',' was a sense of His protecting care who has promised to ho a " Father to the'fatherless!
The hoavy load waa lifted from her,heart; a tranquil calm stolo over her apirit, ahd gradual. ly ahe sank into a quiet alumber. '
Again 'twas midnight. The moon had diaap' peared below the horizon^ but the. stars,shone on as peacefully es ever. Naught wae. heard in the deserted streets, save the heavy .tread of the watchman, when auddenly on the .ear, arose the fearful cry of fire. Soon all was bOny and conftisioQ; the palling of bella, tho rattling of engines, and the shouts of the firemehy all min¬ gled in one wild uproar. " The fire Viid [in ihe moat densely populated part Of the, city,'where hundreda were miserably crowded into one dwelling, and the criea of the' inhabitants, as they rushed from their'bnming homes into ihe street, added'to the excitetnent'.of the scene.

Up, up thoa^ stairs, at tho pei'ilof his own life—another life was at stake—iind that was enough. .He gained the'room, he knew not how, and hasfjly raising the prostrate formi the glare of the flame fell full upon the face. That face! oh, unexpeoicd blisal.the objeci of his day dreams, the angel of bis nightly visions.
Wiih a ihriljLof Joy he claaped ttie inanimate form ; not a moment was to be lost; he reach¬ ed the foot of the-first stairway, almost at a bound; the next I 0 heavens! the fliimea htid reached. There- was no other way, and with his precious burden he ruahed ihrough the flames and suffocating smoke .unacathed; on, on, hia step nerved by an unseen power, he Blood on the ihraahold, he gained Ihe Btreei just as the burning roof fell in, andlhe whole became a solid mass of flame.
Shouts of apptauije rent tlie air, but lie heard thera not; he had received his reward !
Hastily entering a (arrisge, he was soon ai his own hoine,,and just as he laid the fainting girl upon the sofa, Mrs. Hamlltpii, a noble-looking matron, clad in widow's weeds, entered the drawing-room. As Clarence briefly narrated what had transpired,. i>hnimme'diatelyapp]-osch- ed the young stranger, and wiih maternal care applied lhe usual rehiedies to restore her to con¬ sciousness. As she did so, her eye fell upon a small miniature In a plain gold setting, attached by a silken cord to Effie's neck.
As Mrs. Hamilton took it in her hand to ex- amine it more cloaely/an involuntary cry burst from her lips. "Emily., Emily Woodworthi my dearest friend, is it possible 7 How came this here ? Can this be her daughter, her.Effiej of whom she used to speak ao often in her let¬ ters ? But how came ahe in New York, and in such a condition, too ?" coniinued Mrs. Hamil¬ ton, thoughifully.
Where, where is her moiher ? Poor, poor Emily, then you have gone,^but your child, shal^ be cherished for your sake,", sighed Mrs. Ham¬ ilton, as her son informed her thai an Irish wo¬ man had told him that the young girl was an orphaOfTier moiher having been buried only ihe day before.
Poor child! how you must have suffered, '* said Mra. Hamilton, as she remarked the pale sad face of the stilt unconscious Effie, '' but you hnve found a home at last."
Clarence spoke not; he sat watching wilh in¬ tense anxiety the face of Effie, aa she lay so still, so motionlessi apparently without life.
Emily Woodworth was the maiden name ot Mrs. Stanley; Mrs. Hamilton and herself had been intimate friends: in iheir younger days they were schoolmates together, aod had regu¬ larly corresponded until Mrs. Hamilton's depar¬ ture for Europe with her aon, from whence she had laiely returned. Effie had often heard her raoiher speak of Mrs. Hamilton, expressinga wish lhat her beloved friend was still in New York, unaware ihat she had returned from abroad.
But to reiurn to Effie. Long did the nvo hang over her, walching in vain for the least sign of returning consciousness; but at length she alowly opened her eyes, and murmured hal^ audibly, while a dreamy smile played around her lip; " I ihought I was in heavefT- Father was there, and motherland oh! the angels sang sweetly, so aweeily ! Then aomething dreadful came, a fire ! yes, there was afire ! the fiames were all around me," she coniinued, shuddering.
Genlly did Mrs. Hamilton soothe the bewild¬ ered mind of the poor girl, and wilh her cool hand resting upon her tluobbrng brow, at lenglh tho wearied orphan slept.
Six months passed away, and brought a gtor- i:>ua ovening in the monlh of June. "With a silvery radiance lhe moonlight fell upon iho beautiful gardens of a stately mansion. Amid the clustering roses ond ftmrmuring fountains that embellished the grounds, walked Clarence Hamiltion.
He was not alone ; his eyes rested fondly up¬ on his arm. Surely we would know that sweet face to be Effie Stanley's.
How beauiiful ahe looked in ihe still moon¬ light ; so changed from the pale, sad being of a few monlhs since. Her large, dark eyes were sufTuaed with bright lears; bul they were teara of sorrow ! A rich glow came and went upon her cheek, aa the low tones of her companion fell upon her ear, white the radjani countenance of Clarence, and lhe half limid, yet confiding glance whh which she retnrned hia look of de- voted love, told that some new joy waa trem¬ bling in each bosom. *
The flowers might have iold strange tales of wliat had lhat night been breathed within their hearing; ihey might have whispered ihai a bride had been ^vtin beneaili that starry sky, and lhat the litetong affections of iwo loving hearls had been forever plighted.
A few montlis later, ar.d a gay pany wore gathered within the splendid mansion of Mrs. M , ono of the elite of lhe city. Thr par¬ lors were already filled, when suddenly the doors were ihrown open, rfhd Mr. and Mrs. Hamilton wore announced. All oyes were upon ihe love¬ ly faco of the young bride, as she came grace¬ fully forward, leaning upon ihc arm of the proud hnsband.
Whol was the asloniahment and chagrin of Ida Leslie, as she recognized in the young wifo of the talented Clarence Hamilton, Effie Stan¬ ley, the poordeapised seamatrcsa, who, ol late, had been so strangely missing.
But not even* tho whisperod insinuation o^ Mias Lesiio eould prevent the universal admira¬ tion with which the fair bride was greeted.— The beamy and grace of the young stranger, the perfeel ease and elegance of her manners, and above all the artles-sncss and warmth of her naiure, won alt hearts; and Ida had the raorti fication lo find the beautiiul Mra. Hamilton the theme of every tongue.
* 4 • ¦» ¦» fl
Years have passed away, but Ida Loslie is yet unmarried: why it is, no one can tell, lhat, among all the admirera who have been captivat¬ ed by her charms, not one, aftera more Jnii* mate acquaintance, has appeared anxioua lo car¬ ry ofl* the prize, and Ida, with all her beauty, seema destined to a life of "single blessedness."
Effie stilt lives; the idol ofher husband'a heart, iho brightest ornament of the . circle in which she movea, Bul, though surrounded by all the luxuries that wealth can bring, those dark houra of poverty are never forgotien, und remembering how betier was once her own por¬ tion, ahe freely bestows her, wealth upon the suffering. In her the poor and needy>ever find the warmest aympathy, and many alone child of poverty, whose wants eho haa relieved, breathes with blessings lho name of her who has broughi gladness to their hearts.
SCT In a amall country town located in the vicinity of ihe junction of the Chenango with the Susquehanna river there is a church in which the singing had, to use their own phrase, "run completely down." It had been led for many years by one of the deacons, whoso voice and musical powers had been gradually giving out. One evening, on an occasion of interest, tne. clergyman gave ouc the hymn, which was sung even worse than usual—the deaconj ot course, leading off. Upon jis.conclusion, tbe minister arose and requested Brolber —• to re¬ peat the hymn, as he could not conscientiously pray after such flinging. The deacon very com posedly ' pitched ' it to anoiher tune, and it woa again performed wiih manifestly a Httle improve ment opon the first time. The clergyman eaul no more, but proceeded with his prayer. He had finiahed, and taken the book to give out a second hymn, wheii he was interrupted by JDea*
con  gravely getting up, and sayihg. in a
voice audible: to ths whole congregation, " will Mr-:—¦ pleaae make another prayer ? It will bo impossible for me losing afier auch praying as thai!"

Where¬ upon.; (we quoto) :— -,
Aftera lapse of a few minutes. Judge Craw¬ ford asked, " Daniel T. Woodward, have you anything td say why the sentence of the law shall not he pronoupoed by the court ?"
SPEECH op THE PRfSONEa.
The prisoner, who had risen in the dookanti was leaning u^n the' rail,; replied ih a firm and audible voice. " I have your honor."— AU eyes were now direct?^ towards "hinr, and there was more than usual quiet in the court¬ room. He contintied : .- , " I am not guilty of the oharee bronght against me. I did not cause the death of my wife ~ The witnesses against me swore to falsB- hoods- My wife's feelingei were wrought on by her father. I do not deny that there had been differences betweeii'ns. She knew Inev- er raisod my hand to her unlesa provoked to such a degree that I did not know what I was about. From the first dayof ourmarriage un¬ til her death, I never knew that she was going to deprivQ herself of exiatehoe.
"On the evening of,tIi^ 23d of December Hilton came to tho house for me ; Idon't reo- oflect the hour, and I fonnd my way to the magistrate's ofhce. I asked trbat was Uie_iiiat- ter Squire Drury soid I had uttered' abusive language. I'replied I did not know that I had, except talking roughly. He then said if I would leave the pistol I^ght go home. I at first hesitated, butfinally-jgave'up the piatol Hilton said to Maston that Mrs. Woodward was afraid of her husband, and " you are a sioKid man and can go home with her," and that ne would go along too. We aat down there, talk¬ ing, but about nothing in particular. It was saidby a witness that I proposed to sing my wife's favorite songa, " Washington's Grave,'* and the ** Iriah Emigrant's Lament.", Hilton said to me, it's strange that at one time yoa are low-spirited and melancholy, and at other timea are given to levity. I don't recollect my anawer, for the reason he did not inquire the aauBO of it.
" I have been laboring under a Btrange con¬ dition ever since I left the jail. After the of¬ ficers had been at my house, Hilton, at ten o'clock, proposed to go. They left every thing peaceable and quiet. X hove myself on the bed with a oigar. My wife was on the opposite side of the bed. I appealed to her feelings, and I will tell you what langnage I made use of. After lying there with my clothes on, I said to her : ".Why do yongoafter thepolice officers, and have constables rnnning after me ? What have I done that you sbould do so ?^ I was injured in both arms and ankles in jail." After appealing to her feelings, I said I oould not live so, and if it was agreeable we would separate. I asked her what she would do.— Considering a few moments, she said : Well, Dan, you shall never go to jail while I live" I got up and went into the Bhop_ to see what was doing tbere, and ehe went into the back room and fssteAed the door.v When I went in¬ to the front room! heard tH^ report of a pis¬ tol, and entering the other room I saw my wife breathing her last.
Tfae prisoner acquiring additional earneHt- ness, and in a tremulous tone, continued :
" I could not destroy the only friend I had on earth. Ijhad nobody .to care for me but that woman. Whatever my failings were, sbo was my friend, and I hers. [Af^er apauac] That evening she eaid she was afraid. I did uot harass her feelings to my knowledge. A''eoir I NEVEK ! I never cherished feelings of ill-will or hate towarda anybody. My character has been principle, honesty, aud uprightness in all my dealings in life.. I bave been a soldier, a sailor, and beeu in vnrious parts of the world, and no mau can say that I ever wrong¬ ed or injured or had a spite against himi— [The interest in the narration on the part of tho audience seemed to increase with every successivo sentenoeO I reside in Washington. In youth I associated with frienda now gray- headed, and not one lady or gentlemen cau come forward and aay that Daniel T. Wood¬ ward ever did a wrong thing to any family or lady, or auy one's sister. Ifl had killed my wife, I would acknowledge it in the face of the world nnd of God, of whom I expect forgive ness I stand before yonr honor and before God an Innocent man.
*' The witneases testified falsely against me. I did not know them.
. "Ifl were a guilty man—Ihave the heart of a man—let my failings be what they may, I would come forward,tm* iir thc-preaence of my God and you, acknowledge my crime.
" I pray your honor to grant to this man who stands before you anew trial, .Do not let that flag which has waived over my head in suffering, hunger and thir.st, waive,over me now as a condemned man. I have traveled under the American flag, and rode on the waves of thc sea, but I have yet to sufier death as an innocent man. I never knew what it was to be conaidered a criminal, and have my life plotted against by wicked persons, who have been the cause of the death of my wife.— They sold my wife's clothea tit publio sale, and my property, nnd afterwardij contrived ngainst my life-
" Oh, God ! it is a hard case. God knows the failings of human nature. Wc can't know things too mysterious to find out. I tell you, judge, I should bo afraid to stand up here and open my lips with falsehood upon them. I feel thatfHt would be a stigma on my greyheaded mother to aay that her son died a criminal.— [Tears camo into his eyes, and at this point they who-almost breathlessly hung upon his worda appeared deeply to sympathize with the prisoner.] And my aiatera' hearts, too, would be 80 wounded if Dan died as a murderer. It is too hard.   I pray God to show juatice.
" I know that I nm on "innocent man. My wife's father and brother drove her to destrno¬ tion. She loved roe. She could not help it.--- She knew I never would do wrong if I knew what I was about.
" If i t is possible, 1 pray you to grant me a new trial, nnd Ieavo thc case with Almighty God. It is a hard thing- Were I guilty ol the charge which was bronght against me I would have nothing to say in defence, I would say I did the act, and pray God to forgive me. There was no soul iii tho house to my knowl- i thihk it waa shut up. I don't know how it occurred, unlesa she destroyed herself [We hero noticed many of the auditors in tears, occasioned by the solemnity oftho scene and sympathy for the prisoner, in viqw of tho aw¬ ful sentence shortly to be pronounced.] I pray your honor to consider my case—to rc- fleet, not for my sake in partioular, but for the sake of iustice, and for the sake ofmy poor old mother,' aud my sisters, and for the soke of old acquaintances, who havo known me here in Waahington. Whilolenrninga trade, and growing up to manhood, no person can say that a wrong oot waa done by me. None cnii say so."
Thore was' an interval of profound silence of several minutes duration, and all eyea were now directed to Judge Crawford, who. having taken from his drawer asheet of manuscript, andfilled a blank therein, aentonoed the pris¬ oner to be hanged on tho 2d of September next. The prisoner listened attentively to the read¬ ing of the sentence, and did not appear to be as much affected by it as the most indifferent spectator in the room- He is probably about forty-two years of age, and of genteel and in telligent appearance.
Wr Impudent pellifoggerg, as our readers have often seen, sometimes get their fingers bitien in their own trap, by their insolent brow'- beating of witnesses. HorO'is a new instance in a Juaii'cea' Court " down-east" a trial waa under woy for irespasa in cutting wood from a neighbor's premises without authority. One ol the plainiifTs witnesses waa a plain old farmer, whoso testimony wont clearly and directly lo prove tho charge. The defondant's counsel, e blustering man of brass, after the raost approv¬ ed fashion of conniry peititoggera, thought to weaken the force of his evidence by proving idiocy to be a trait of his family. He therefore interrogated him thus:
'•-Mr, ——, you have a son who is an idiot, have you not?"
*¦ Yea, Sir."
" Does he know ony thing ?"
" Vary little,"
" How mtch does he know ?"
" Well, almost nothing; not much more than youdo!"
Tho witness was allowed to retire without farther question, amidst the most uproarious " ekreems of lafture.''

.\u2ii9tp,aa., September 29, 1852. J Steam Piouing Mills \ Dear Sir: —Vou ask me for my opinion of "Silver's Mineral Paints," which you have put ou my Machiot; Shop and Planing Mill. I givo you with pleasurelmy full and heorty rticommcndation of it as a proventlve of Fire communicating from chimneys, or from ad¬ joining buUdlngs. Tbe Paint which yon pnt on my roofs, haa now become hard as slate, and t feel as se¬ cure from Cte, in this direction, a.i is possible. A few weeks after tlio roofs had been painted, I made an ei- perimcni on two or three shinglea, by placing them in thc furnace under the boUers; the result was that the portion uncovered was entirely consumed, white the painted part was apparently sound, though on exami¬ nation the wood wa.s found to bo charred; the Paint however was riBM and but little blistered. I consider this as severe a test as your Paint can be put to, and under the circumstances do not hesitate to coramenil It as an invaluable preventive againstlFire. Respectfully, &c..
