WHAT WE AIX THINK.
That age was older once than now, Io spite of locks untimely sbed.
Or slivered o'er the youthful brow; That babes make love, and cblldren weJ.
That snuihlne had a hoarenly glow
Which faded with thoia "gnod old days. When winters came with deeper anow.
And aoiujans witb a softer haio. That mother, sister, wife or child—
Th«i "hflBt uf women" Mch ba:}ki)own. Were schoolboys ever half so wild?
How young the grandpapas have grown.
Thai but fur this our souls were frea, And bat for tbat oar lives iTero ble'^l.
That in some season yet to be.
Our care- will leave ns tlmo to real.
Wb''ne'er we groan with ache or palu.
Some comiuun aitmeot of tbn race, Thongh doctera think tba matter plaiu,
Tbal our.s is A "pecaliar case."
That wben like babes with fingers burned. We count ooe bitter maxim more.
Our lesson all the world baa learned, ADil meu are wiser ihan before
Tb:it wben we sob o'it fancied woes.
The angels hovering overhead CDuni every pitylnfr drop that fiuws.
And love us for thq tears we shrd.
Tbat when we stand witb tearless xye.
And turn the beggar <'rora oar do.ir. They fctiU approve us wbeu we sigh—
" Ah, had X but one thousand more!"   - Tbat weakness smoothed the path cf slu
Id balf the slips our youth bas known; And whatsoe'er its blaiue has been.
That Mercy flowers ou faults o'ergroWa.

more.   If yoa will kindly not take too mucli time " be added, " for I belieTa there will be little time to spare." "I do not understand you," said Mn. Chaae. *'I bad a letter from Drake, of oun^ this uorning, and he tells me there ifi a rumor that we are to be aent off totbeWeBtlndieB.'' "And you wish for the answer before you ; go.   Tbat ia nataral.   You sball have it." "My Dear Mra. Chafie, I wish for Atfr before I go.   I must take ber with me." I     "Take—are you speaking of Susan!" ut¬ tered tbe astonished Mrs. Chase.
"Of course I am. Several of onr officers are married men,and tbeir wives will accom¬ pany tbem ont."
"If Susan were older I would not say you nay—only three or fonr years older."
"I cannot go witbout Susan. I never could ; endure to leave her behind me, with nothing ¦' more bijdiug between us than au eugage- ; ment. I might have to stop out tbere for I years before I could get leave to come bome ; and claim her. Dear Mra. Chase, if you are satiafiad with me in otber respects, yon must ; give your consent to our being married di- ; rectly."
( "Mr. Carnngie.' Do yott fcnow6ttSan'3 age*"' I "Yes, eighteen. Aud you," he added, ' with a half smile, "were seventeen when you ! married ; I beard you eay it." i Mrs. Chase looked vexed. "Trae, tbat waa I my age," she answered; " and it is that very i fact wbicb has aet me agaiust early marriages I for my children. They are most pemicioas. I Susan, where are you going ? Stay and bear : what I have to say ; it is now fitting tbat you I should. Sit down again. I have scarcely en- 1 joyed a day's health siooo I married, Mr, Car- i nagie. My children came fast, many of tbem j —worry, noise, bustle, toil I Oh I you dou't ¦ know tbe discomfort; and I almoat made vow tbat my daughter.^ should not marry until tbey were of a proper ag»»."
" May I ask wbat you would call a proper age ?" be asked, suppressing a smile.
"Well, I think tbe most proper and tbe be.<5t age would be about five-and-twenty.— But certainly not until twenty was turned. " Susan wauta only two years of that.— De.ir Mrs. Chase, I mnst plead that you cbange your resolution in her case. Were I station' ary in England, and could occasionally aee her, it would he different. I mn.it take her witb me. •* You are not sure of going?"
" No, I am not-   Drake thought '
" We will not discuss it farther now,' terrupted Mrs. Chase.   "You have nearly startled me out of my sober judgment."
" Yt^ry well. May I come iu to-morrow moruing ?"
*'If you like. I will then say yes or no, but witlio'it regard to time."
" Now miud, Suaan," he aoatched a mo¬ ment to whisper, '*if she—if your mother atill holds out, and vows we must wait an in- deAnite number of years, we will not wait at all, but just elope, and settle it that way.— It's most unreasonable. I can't wait for you, and I won't."
Susan smiled faintly. She was not one of tbe eloping sort.
Tbe morning camn. Mrs. Chase had re¬ solved to accept Mr. Camagie, finding that Susan's " mind," as she called it, was set upon him; and, indeed, there was no reason why abe should not; but when Mr. Camagie came she found tbere was something else to be settled. He bad received a summon to joint his regiment, which waa then quartered in Ireland, and also a positive, though not official notification, that it waa ordered to tbe West Indies, and would be away in two months. Now, was Sasau to go with bim or not ? Mrs. Cbase said no, be said yes ; and, after much standing out on J)oth sides, and some slight indication of releuting on hera they somehow came to the conclusion tbat Suaan sbould decide.
**My dear, decide prudently," cried Mrs. Chase. " Think well over all the fatal objec¬ tions I have pointed out. Prudence, mindl" " Susan, darling, decide bravely," cried he; "don't be afraid. Think how bappy we sball be togethei'!"
And poor Susan, amid a rush of color aud a flood of tears, decided to go.
"Oh, dear!'' groaned Mrs. Chaae; "tbere will be no time to get you suitable wedding things, Susan."
"No time I" echoed Mr. Carna^'e; "I could get an outfit made and packed in tbree daya, and Susan has double as many weeks. J ahonld think she might hny up half tho shops iu Great Britain by that time."
A lady and gentleman were pacing a cover¬ ed walk one dull day iu November. Both were young; be had sometliing of a military air about him—a tall, thiu mau, very dark. She was fair, witb a calm face and plea-saut expression. Just now, bowHver, her featnrea were glowing with animation, ber oheeka burning, aud her eyes cart down; for he» Charles Camagie, bad beeu telling her tba^ he loved her, and she would rather have his love tban tbat of tbe whole world.
Lieutenant Caroagte had come ou a visit in the neighborhood. He had accidently met with Susan Chase the vary firat day of hia arrival, aud bo bad conlrived to meet ber pretty nearly evt*ry day .-^iucB—now .--ome weefcs^so that love bad grotm up between them. A gossiping letter, received that mor¬ ning from a brother officer, .qpoke of a rumor tbat their regiment was about to be ordered to tbe West Indies; and this bad caused him to speak out.
"You know, Susan," he said, "I cannot co without you."
A deeper blush still, then a troabled ex¬ pression, and she half raised her eyes. "Mamma will not consent to tbat; she will aay I am too young."
"Sus&n " laughed Mr. Cauargie.
"Yes. Wbat?" For he seemed to bave found some source of amusement, and laugh¬ ed atill.
"Do you remember the other evening, wbeu tbe Maitlands came to tea, and the conversation turned on marriage, your mam¬ ma informed us she was married at seven¬ teen ? You are eighteen, so she cannot consistently bring forward your youth as an objection."
"Yes but she also said tbat early marriagea
were "   Misa Chase atopped and blushed.
"Tbat early marriages were the incarnation of imprudence afid impropriety," said Mr. Canargie; "laying tbe foundation for all the Ilia and diiasters that fiesli is heir to, from an unconscionable share of children, to a ruined pocket and rained health. My dear Susan, we will risk tbem all, and cite her own example wben she holds out against U3.'' "Look atthe rain!" suddenly exclaimed Miss Chase, as they came to an opening in the trees.   " How long can it have begun ?"
" It's coming dowu pretty smartly. There are worse misfortunes at sea, Susan. We can turn back again, and wait its pleasure. You are under shelter here."
"But indeed I dare not stay longer. I wonder what the tima is. Will you look, please?"
Mr. Canargie took out his watch. " It ia on the stroke of twelve."
"Twelve! " she exclaimed, thunderstruck. " Twelve! Cliarle.s, we have beeu an hour and a half.    What will mamma say?"
" Nothing—wheu she bears what we hare to tell her. "
"Oh, Charley 1 I only went out to take a message to tbe callage, and she kuowa I might have been back in teu miuutes. In¬ deed I must hasten in."
He opened his umbrella, wbich he bad with him—for laiii had been tbreatt*ned all morning—and, cansing ber to take his arm, held it over ber. She walked timidly; it was tbe first time she had ever taken it, aud tbe moment they came withiu view of the bouse ahe relinquished it.
" Susan, what's that for?" "Don't you see mamma at tfae  window ?" she faltered.
"Yes; and I see that she ia looking tt us. Come, Susan, take courage; a few minutes more, and she will kuow that it is all as it ahould be."
Mr. Camagie laid bold of ber hand, inten¬ ding to make it again a prisouer; but Susan drew it away, and atarted off in the rain, leav¬ ing him and bis umbrella iu tbe distance.
She ujunded into the hall, panting. Her mother eame and met her. Mr, Canargie was not far behind.
"Susan, whwre have you been?" ex¬ claimed Mrs. Chase, motioning her into the sitting room.    " What bas detained yoa ?"
Of courae she h.id no excuse to offer, and she murmured .something utiintelligible. Mra. Chaae only caught the Wunl "rain ."
"Rain! You conld not liave waited for that, it haa only just commenced. Where is It that yoa hava been, Susan ?'*
"I believo I detained ber Mrs. Chase,*' spoke up young Camagie. "I waa coming in here, and met her, and we bave beeu walk¬ ing in the covered walk."
Foliteneaa kept Mrs. Chaae silent. Bnt she did not allow ber daughter to walk with young meu either iu covered or uncovered ones, and she mentally prepared a lectur e for Saaan.
"Suaan haa beeu making me a promise," resumed Mr. Canargie, folding and unfolding a piece of paper which he took up from the table.
"Not to go out walking with you again, I hope," hastily interposed Mra. Chaae; "for I oannot sanction it."
"Not preciaely that. Mrs. Chase, she bas promised to be my wife. "
Mrs. Chase was takeu entirely by surprise • A complaint on the chest, from which she suffered constantly, caused ber to be much confined at bome, rarely, if ever, accompany¬ ing her daughters in their walka or evening visits; therefore she bad seen little of the progress of the intimacy. Susan sat down on the sofa, aud drooped her face, aud ner¬ vously played witb her untied bonnet striugs. "Conditionally, of conrae," added Mr. Car- nagie, " that you have no objection. I trust yoa will have none, Mrs. Chase."
"Dear mel this Ib very sudden," waa all thftt lad7 coold And to att«r.
Mr. Camagie made tbe best of bis way to Ireland, and Susan made the beat use of her bands and energies in preparing for ber change of prospects. In seven weeks they were to be married, and in eight to sail. Mr. Camagie had interest with his colonel, and had no doubt of obtaining another short leave of absence. Duriug this time Mra. Chase had Susan's likeneas taken—to con¬ sole them, abe said, when Susan should be gone. It waa a good likeness, but it flattered her. Susan wrote a merry account of this to Mr. Carnagie.
One day, when Susan'a friend, Frances Maitland, had come in to help her with aome delicate work, she began speaking of the dis¬ position of Mr. Camagie.    •
"Susan, tell me: do you believe he ia cal¬ culated, altogether, to make you happy?"
" Is there any reason why he should not he ?" was Susan's auswer.
"He is ao fearfully passionate." " Who says so ?" demanded Susan,   iu  a tone of resentment.
"Oh! he IS. Aak tbe Asbleya. There waa something up about a dog. It was wben Charles Carnagie was atopping there. He completely lost all self-control, and rushed to hia room for bis sword. Beaay met him on the stairs; he was braudiabing it, and looking like a madman. She says there was au awfnl scene. Arthur declares be never saw so violent a temper."
" Charles must bave been greatly provok¬ ed," remarked Susan.
"He provoked himself, I believe. How¬ ever, Susy, it's your owu look out. I'm sure I don't want to aet you against him. Mar¬ riage is a lottery, at the best; 'for richer for poorer, for better for worse.' You will aoon have to say that, you know."
Susan Chase had not soon to say it. The time of tbe wedding drew ou, and on the day previous to hat fixed for it, Lieutenant Car¬ nagie arrived at Stopton, having obUined his leave of absence. Mrs. Chaae'a bouse was at some distance from it, bnt it was a fine, fros- ty morning, and be set out to walk.
He had come neariy iu view of the house wben he met a funeral. It startled Mr. Car¬ nagie considerably, for surely it had come from tbe very house he was bound to, Tbere
" Can yon inform ma what Mrs. Chaae died of?" the young oflMr Mpeated, for a woman now came up.   "Waa it any aoaident?"
No,air, no aooident. She has been ailing a long time—some years—and got suddenly worse at the last, and died," was tbe woman's answer, who evidently did not kuow Mr. Camagie. "It was so quick that ber sons did uot get here in time to see her, nor the little mias that was at sohool."
He was terribly shocked, almost unable to believe it.
" When did she die!" " On TueBday, air.   Four days ago." "Arethey not barying ber very soon ?" "Well, sir, the funeral was fixed forto- morrow-I know all about it, you see, because I have been in there, since, helping tbe ser¬ vants.   Butto-morrow, Saturday, was to have been Miss Chase's wedding-day, and I b'lieve she couldn't hear tbe idea, poor thing I of the funeral taking place on it—what was to have been so different.   Theu the next day was Sunday, and some of the family did not like tbat day,  and one of  ths  sous was obliged to be back at his college on Monday. So tbey settled it for to day."
Stunned with the news, Mr. Camagie turn¬ ed back. There seemed an ndelicacy in his going to the bouse at that moment, aud he waited till tbe afterpart of the day, and went then. A serjaut showed bim into a darken¬ ed room, and Snsau came to meet him.
He thought »be would bave cried herself ill. Her emotion was pitiable. He clasped her in his arms, and she lay there and sob¬ bed aloud, qni'j9 hysterically, like a child ories. She could give him little more infor¬ matiou tbau had previoualy been imparted. Tbeir dear mother's complaint had taken au unfavorable turn, and had carried her off almost without warning. One of her broth¬ ers, she said, bad written to him ou tbe Tuesday nigbt after it had happened. Mr. Carnagie had left Ireland before the lettergot there.
" Susan," he whispered, when ahe was a little calmer, " must thi.i eutail a separation on us ?"
Sjie looked at him hardly understanding. " Must we wait ? Nust 1 sail witbout you ?" " Charles, tbat is almost a crael question," she said at length. " How could you ask it ? Would you bave me marry you before my mother is cold in the grave ? A year, at auy rate, mnst pasa over."
"It may be much longer than that. I shall not get leave ao readily again. Ob, Su¬ san ! this ifl a h;-rd trial."
" It i.s the will of God," she sighed, " and we must bear it."
" I shall not bear it patiently. I shall get married to one of the cop per, half-cast natives, out of defiance, or something as desperate.— Fancy wbat it will be—condemned to vege¬ tate by myself in that stifling climate, and you some millions of milea away."
Susan was silent, pained at the tone of tbe remark, and at that moment a girl of fifteen opened the door and looked in. wearing deep mourning, like her.self.
" Come in, Emma, darling," she fou ly said, drawing her aistertowards her. " This is Mr. Camagie, wbo waa to have been so nearly related to us to-morrow. Charles," abe added, " were there no otber reason, I must have stayed to protect tbia child. My mother especially bequeathed her to me."
Emma Chaae, who bore a resemblance to hersister Suaan, felt a restraint lu thatstran- ger'a presence, and she silently withdrew.
"Well, thi.=i is a gloomy pioapeet for us, Susan," resumed Mr. Caruagie, who couldnot get over bia disappointment. " It is no joke what I say—that it maybe yeara before I can come to fetch you."
Sh« raiaed ber eyes to his in all the expres¬ sion of their trusting confidence. " No mat¬ ter how many, Charles, you will find me wait¬ ing for you." . . -^" ; " But it is hard, for all that." " Do you think—pray forgive me if I sug¬ gest anything wrong or nnpleasing—that if you were to return at once to your duty, without taking tbe leave granted you now, (except the time occupied in traveUng, which cannot be avoided,) that they would be more inclined to allow it to you when you next asked? It is an idea that has occurred to me,"
" Perhaps so.   It is not. a had notion.— But, Susan, I would rather spendit with you.' "We are so sad just now," ahe murmured, "all thehonae,"
Tbere was something in her tone whicb seemed to convey an intimation that his presence might not be acceptable to that house of sorrow—or, at least, Mr. Camagie fancied so. Aud he did think ber suggestion of go¬ ing back to his duty was a good one.
" Then, Susan, I thiuk I had better make up my inind to leave you, and start back this very night."
" It may better," she answered, tbe tears standing in her eyes.
"And in another year, my darHn(r,if all's well, I trust I shall come aud claim you." "I trust so," she whispered. He had in his pocket her wedding-ring, which he had bought as he came through Liverpool, and he drew it forth and slipped iton her finger—on the uue he ought to have slipped it on in the church on tbe morrow.
" There, Susan, now that binds you to me. Let it stop tbere till—till I take it off to put it on again."
"Not on tbat finger,"  >be remonstrated, her pale cheek flushing. "Why not?"
" Strangers will think me a married wo¬ man."
" And iu one sense we are, for we are mar¬ ried iu beart.    Let it be there for my sake." "Very well," she murmured. " Susan, I must now ask something else.— Tbe miniature that was taken of you."
Susan hesitated. It was still in her mam¬ ma's room, iu what abe uaed to call her " treasure drawer."
" I was to have had the original, and tliey the likeness," he said, " bnt uow that the original will be loft at home, I may surely take tbe likeness. Let me bave it, Su.sau." She went and fetched it. " Andnow I will bid you farewell, for if I am to go I must start," he said straining ber to him. "Godbless you, my love! my dar¬ ling wife that was to have been I Bh trtin to me, Susan, as I will be true to you."
He departed. Bat he did uot return to his duty as had been agreed. He meant to do so, but he retumed by way of London, and the attractions of the capital proved too much for hts resolution. In due course, he departed with his regiment for the Barbadoes; aud poor Susan Chase remained at home to pine after him, and to wear ber wedding-ring.

CHAPTER II. For tbree years they did not meet. Nay, it was more ; forit was winter when he went, and early summer when heretured. Wheth¬ er Mr. Carnagie had grown less anxious for marriage, or that he really could not obtain leave, certaiu it is tbat for three years and four montha Susan did not see him. In his letters he had preaaed mnch for her to go out to him and marry there ; but her innate sense
were only some  lialf dozen cottages beside   of retiring delicacy spok-^ against it.    This
that the road led to, just there, and tbat style of funeral was not likely to come from a poor cottage. He vaulted over a gat*» by the road¬ side, and peeped through the hedge: a hearse and several carriages. When it passed he he came forth again, leaned over tbe gate, and gazed after it. Some children drew near, slowly following the sight in awe, gazers like himself.
"Who is dead?" he inquired of them.	
"Who is it that is heing taken to be buried?"
"Mrs. Chase, sir."
"Mrs. Chasel" he uttered, horror-stricken. "What did she die of?"
The children did sot know^-only that "the died becanu she was ill."
prolonged absence had  told  mncb on  h spirits, and  somewhat on  her health.    Her marriage preparations had long beeu made.
May came in, and had nearly gone again. On the 29th of that month,.Saaau was seated before the breakfaat table, waiting for her sis¬ ters, Ursula and Emma. They were still in the same house ; it belonged to their eldest brother, and he waa unmarried and frequent¬ ly away from it. Tbe young ladiea bad their own fortune, each about £100 a year.
The 29th day of May was kept as a gala day in their village, and In all tbat part of tbe oountry. Service was read in the ohuroh and a procession walked to it, with banners aud gilded oak balls and branchea.  It is don*
blue eyea, and hershining curls. She was of a careless, gay temperament, unlike her thonghtful sisters. " Stay, you look sad," waa her aalutation, " and every soul has some pecaliar source of gratification to¬ day. Did you hear the laughing crowds go¬ ing by, all the morning, to gather the oak- balls I"
" What may be your peouliar source of gratiSoation, Bmma ?" asted Ursula.
" Tbe putting on my uew blae dress. You dou't know how well it becomes me. I shall win more hearts at ohurch to-day than the parson."
" You are a vain girl, Emma." " I thiuk I am," was the laughing answer; "but Where's the harm of it? Seriously speaking, Sasan, were I you, if that lieuten¬ ant of mine did not advertise himself shortly, I should give him ap> He is the origin of all yonr sad looks, I dou't think he troubles himaelf to write often; it is four months aince his last leitor arrived."
" He may be ou his way," said Susan.— " Iu that letter he stated that he was going to apply for leave."
" Theu he might bave written to aay ao, if be is on hia way. Unless—Susan, I should not wouder^unless he thinks to take yon by surprise I"
Susan aroused herself from a painful rev¬ erie. " Yes," she aaid, " I think he must be ou his way ; I have thought ao several times, ately." And a happy flush mantled on her cheeks, and ahe unconsciously twirled tbe plain gold ring round aud round her finger. It was a habit she had fallen into when ber mind was absent.
The day passed on to the evening, ^ome yoang ladies had come in to spend it with tbem. Soou after the shatters ivere closed and lights brought in a souud as ofa post, oliaise was heard approaching the bjuse. Noue seemed to take any heed of it; they were not thinking of Mr. Camagie ; Sasan'.s heart aloue beat wildly.    Has he come ?
The door opened, and a tall, gentlemanly mau entered—a British officer. AU in the room rose, aud he atood iu indecision, look¬ ing from one to the other. So many yoa'ng ladies! " Itis Charles Carnagie !" screamed out Frances Maitland.
" My darling Susan I" he whispered, ad¬ vancing lu one of them, and clasping her tenderly to him. " How thankful I am that we have met again." But she blushed and smiled, and drew herself away from him. It wa.'i Emm.a.
Francea Maitland advancHd. "You have made a mistake, Charles. Ah! I aee you have uot foi^otten me, but never mind me jiLSt now. Thia ia not Susan." *.' Not Suaan!" he uttered. " Susan, why don't vou come forwarduind show yourself?" For poor Susan Chase had shrunk hack. All her heart's life seemed to ha-e been struck out of her, as hy au ice- bolt, when tbat embrace was given to anoth¬ er.   Suaan, I .say!"
Miss Maitland wa^ positive iu her manner, dragged forth Susan, and held out her hand to Mr. Carnagie. He look it with cold inde¬ cision, looked ather and tbt*n looked at Emma. " You aro playing with iue," he aaid; "tbia is Susan."     ..'I ¦¦;¦ ',) >¦>..'
".No, indeed,-1 am, Emma," returned that young lady, langhiug, and shaking back her aunny ringlets." But tbey all aay I am jnst like what Susan used to he,"
Mr. Carnagie recollected bimself. "Susan,'* he whispered, scanning her features, "I think I begin to recognize you. .But yoa are much altered. I beg your pardon for the mistake I made." %'¦-¦-"!:'
"I am Susan," ahe answered, raising her, tearful eyes. ¦  ,,,!^:3:,;,?C'-.,!"'."';^':'i
"Have you been ill ?",he iiitjuired.- .''You are pale ahd thin.v ¦ ''^'-'^-'^^i,-;'--^'--'''!^'--.--/]' '¦.'./ "No,I have .been well. ; I believe  I am thinner."
" Tbat comes of fretting," interposed Miss Maitland—"sighing and fretting after youj Cliarles Camagie."
And Susan blushed deeply, making her look a little more like beraelf.
" How is it you never wrote lo say you were coming?"
"Idid write, jast before I sailed, stating when I should leave."
"Then we never got the letter. We thought you still in Barljadoes."
Many times in tlie evening did Mr. Car¬ negie's eyes rove towards the blooming Em ma. Scarcely could he persuade bimself tbat she was not Susan. The miniature he bad taken with him had been a handsome like¬ ness of what she had beeu. Tlie hair was of the -ame color, dark auburn, dressed in the same style; ringlets, which were much worn theu; and to make the illusion more complete, the dress in the painting was light blue. There sat Emma, iu her new aud band, some light blue silk dre.'^s, her blnshing cheeks, her flowing ringlets, and her ready smile ; and tbere sat Susan, pale and subdu¬ ed, her feature's more angular thau formerly, her bair worn plain, and her dress handaome, certaiuly, but a sober brown. She had not cared to decorate herself in the absence of Mr. Carnagio.
The visitors departed, and he aud Suaan talked over preliminaries tbat night. Mr. Camagie had basiness to do in town, " ota of things," some of his owu, some that he bad undertaken for his brother officers; be might get it doue in three weeks, four at the most; and he proposed that they should be married at once, and go to London together. But to marry so aoon, witb only a day or two's no¬ tice, would be inconvenient, Susan said.— Therefore the weddiug was fixed for a month hence, wheu he should havo completed his busineas, and they would theu spend two or three weekrt at a quiet watering place.
Tbe following muriiiiig they breakfasted later thau usual, for wheu Mr. Carnagie, who had promised to breakfast with them came, he drew Susan out with him into the garden* and began talking to her lovingly, as of old. So late did tbey sit down to breakfast ihat the post came in before they bad finished.— Ouly one letter, aud that for Sn.-*au, She opened it.
" It is from my aunt," she said, urging ms to be sure not to disappoiuC them, and to bring tbo pattern of a pretty spencer, if I happen to have one."
" How like that is to my aunt!" laughed Ursula. "She is always on the lookout for patterns. I believe she must sell them.— Yon write to- ay, Susan, and explain why you cannot go."
"Bnt—ram thinking," hesitated Snaan— " that I can go. Aunt, poor thing, ia ao help¬ less, aud they bave depended ou ma. I be¬ lieve I shall be able."
"If you could it would be a charity," said Ursula; "for what aunt will do withoat you I caunot conceive. Wheu do you leave for town, Mr. Carnagie?"
"As soon aa I can," he answered; "some of my busineas is iu a hurry. Not to day, for I mast give a look iu at the Maitlands aud other friends; and I have much to talk over yet with Susan.   To-morrow I shall go."
" And it is to-morrow tbat I ought to start.*' remarked Susan. "I do not see why I sbould not go. Ursula can forward things here in my absence, and I shall be baok at tbe end ofa fortnight."
"Mind tbat you are back in time, Sasau," said Mr. Camagie, looking grave.
" i wiU be baok iu time," 8h« smiled. "But I think I ought to go."
baok iutime," returned Stiian, jokingly. He took a fond farewell of her, and she departed on her journey.
Precisely to the day, at the end of the fortnight, Susan was baok, arriving inthe afternoon. One of the first persona she aaw as she entered the house, was Mr. Camagie.. "Chariea l You here I" she uttered in aa¬ tonishment. ''Have you come down from London?"
"I have not been," waa Mr. Camagie's an¬ swer, "one thing or other detained me here, Susan. The Maitlands teased me to stay.and I too readily yielded; then I began to reflect how muoh pleasauter it would he to have you in London with me. So I shall juat make myaelf at ease till the happy day, and we will go there together."
There waa something iu tbese words dis¬ pleasing to the ear of Susan. Stay; it was jn the tone, it was pressingly eager, as if be were so anxious to justify himself. And never to have written to her!
"You might have ^,written me a letter, Cliarles, all thia whilei"
"In the first week, I did not care that you ahould know I had not left, for I was perpet¬ ually vowing to be off the next boar. Aud since, I have been looking to see you every day; Ursula thoaght you might come home before the fortnight."
"You might have mentioned,  when you wrote to me, that Charles was here," said Suaan, looking at her sister Ursula. "Mr. Camagie requested me not." "To surprise you, Susan," interrupted Mr, Carnagie.
Ursula had spoken gravely;   he eagerly; and Susau wondered.   She retired to her own I room to take off her things, and iu a few minutes Frances Maitland called,  aud went up to her,
"What a shame of you, Susy, to leave Charles Carnagie to his owu disoouaolate self!" was her unceremonious salutation. "Aud the instant he got here, after his three years' absence."
"Nay," said Susan, "be first of all decided to leave me and go to towu. When I left I thought he was going. I think I ought to reproach you, Frances, for having kept faim. He says that-the Maitlands teased him to stay, and he too readily yielded." "He did not say so!"
"Yes he did.   He bas just said so to me." "Well, that'a cool!" retumed Frances Mait¬ land, "I shall tell Mr. Chariie of that.   If he has been three timea in our house, since yoa left, it is as much as be Iiaa." "Nonsense!" retorted Snsau. "It is truth.   I'll aak Charlie  bow much tbey charge to teach story-telling in Barba¬ does."
"Do I understand that you have not aeen Charlie more thau three times aince I left?" returned Miss Chaae.
"There you go again, Sasau, catching at words, and stumbling to conclusions! X aatd ho had not been more than three timea in¬ side our bouse. I have aeen him dozens; for he haa beeu perpetually about the grounds and in the park, with Emma. We have come upon them at all hours. Do yoa not think Emma looks queer?"
"I have not seen Emma yet," anawered Susan.    "What do you mean by queer?"
"So shy and distant. If we only speak-to her, ahe rushes away. I think. Qbarles^ Car¬ nagie haa scared ber out of her aelf-possea- sion."
"Yoa always were fanciful, Frances." "And perhaps always shall be. You would have beeu better at home than away; at any rate, that's no fancy. I bave come to ask you to spend this evening with us, and that's no fancy. You, your sisters, and Charles Carnagie."
"I am rather tired," answered Susan, "bnt I will come if the rest do."
"It is decided, then, for I aaked Ursula as I came in. Some of yoa can invite Chariie; I may not meet with him. Good-by, till evening,"
When Susan descended to the sitting room Ursula and Emma were there. "Let me look at you," she said lo the latter, after kissing her fondly. "I want to bave a look at your face. Frances Maitland says you have be¬ come queer and shy, and that Charies has scared you out ofyour self-possession."
Susan had Emma hefore her as she spoke, aud she was astonished at the violent rush of crimson wbich flew to her skin..^ Not only this; Emma began to tremble, and then burst into teara and ran from the room.
Susan could cot speak for aatonishment. She turned towards Ursula, and saw ber looking on with a severe expression.
"What can have taken Emma?" faltered Susan. "I meant it as a joke. Ursula, you look strange, too. Tho bouse altogether seems not itself. Wbat can be the matter?*' Urania did not anawer. The scowl ou her brow was very deep.
"Ursula,! ask you, what is it? You aeem angry with me."
Ursula rose. She was tall aud stout, and she threw her large arms round Sasan, and whispered:
"Not with you, Sasau dear. Oh no, not with you.   My poor SasanI"
Susan began to shake, almost as Emma had done. "There ia some mystery," ahe breathed.
"Yes, something haa occurred. I shrink from the taak of telling it to you."
"Mustyou tell me ? must I know it? I have been ao full •f peace and happiness of lale."
"You must know it, I believo. I scarcely knew whether to tell you or not, and I took counsel of Frances Maitland, when ahe came in juat t}OW, and she saya I must. She was goiug to tell it you beraelf, but I forbade her." Susau sat down, somewhat reassured. She thought it might he only that something had gone wrong iu the household; or perhaps the dressmaker had spoiled the wedding-dresses. "Tell me at once, Ursula. Do not beat about the bush."
" You say I look angry," said Ursula.— " I am angry—with Emma. She has grown to love Charles Carnagie."
Susan turned white. She could not speak. "Listen a moment, and yoa ahall know as much as I do. After you left, Charles stayed on, sleeping at the inn, as before. I wonder¬ ed, but of courae it was not my business to send him away. He was much here : it wat only natural that he should be. Then I no¬ ticed—it seemed to occur to my mind all in a moment—^how muoh Emma was with him, out with him iu tbe grounds at all timea and *U bours, and with him in-doors. WelVSu- san,. I never thought to check it, for it only seemed as natural as the other. Last night Frauiies Maitland ran in at dusk, after their tea. I don't know what is waa with yon, but here it was a dull, dismal evening, al¬ most foggy. ' When do you expect Susan home ? where her first words, without saying ' How d'ye do?' or anything—but yoa know her abrupt manner. ' Probably to-morrow,' I answered. ' Well, it's time abe came' that's all,' said she ;' I have seen what I don't like. I have suspected it some days, but I am sure of it now—tbat Emma ia too intimate with Charles Carnagie.* Susan," added Ursula, " you might have knocked me down with a feather ; and theu it rose up frightfully be¬ fore me, and their walking out together, and their whisperings in-door>.*' " How did ah« mean that they ver* too
As
only tell you.   You had better ask her."
Susan leaued her bead upon bar hand.— " Frances is very fanciful," was her remark, " and if onoe she takes au Idea in her mind, her imagination Improves upon it.'*
" True. You must have it out with her, what ahe did see, and what she did not.— When Emma walked herself iu last night, it wsa nearly dark; I said nothing to her. I fear she is too fond of him: it all looks like it. Of his sentiments I know nothing; hut since thia oocurred, I have*wondered wheth¬ er she was tho attraction that kept him here."
How Snaan bore with her feelings till eve¬ ning, when they went to'the Maitlands, she scarcely knew. She drew Francea aside at ouce. "Ursulahas told me," she whispered. " What was it you saw P"
"Only that she was clasped to Chariea Camagie's breast, crying and walling, aud he was kissing her.**
" Oh, Prances t you surely never aaw that I*'
"I did see it. Ifit were tbe last word I had to speak, I saw it," impressively uttered Mias Maitland. " They were bemoaning tbeir hard fate in his heing bound to you. She sobbed out that her happiness was gone for* ever, and he that he had never loved Susan half aa pasaionately as he loved her. This is alU heard or saw, Susan ; but that ia pret¬ ty well."
" Where were they f" " In the grove, by the largo elm-tree at tbe turning.    You know the bench.*'
Snsau went into the drawing-room. The scene swam before her eyea ; she answered queations at random ; aud when Mr. Carnagie spoke to her, she turned faint and sick. Out¬ wardly he was attentive to her, but it was a forced attention. In the course of tbe eve¬ ning, wheu some of tbe party were in the gar¬ den, Mr. Carnagie drew Emma away from tbe rest. Susan followHd them ; ahe believed it her duty ; she was wretched, jealous, misera¬ ble. She saw tbem standing together iu au attitude of tbe deepest affection, aud she drew away again, more jealous and more wretched tban before.
" Wbat shall you do ?—what will be your coarse f'.' Miss Maitlaud asked her.
" I know not—I know not," she answered, iu a tone of anguish. " Frances, pity me I— ob, that I oould fly away somewhere from it all, and find reat!"
Frances Maitland did pity her, little as she was given to pity anybody. " It will take Susan years to get over this," was her men¬ tal comment. "I wonder whether, she will marry him."
When they left that uight, Mr. Carnagie offered his arm to Susau. She thanked him, and said she had her dress to hold up. Yet short petticoats were worn then. He went at once to Emma; she took it, and they lin¬ gered, whispering, behind Susan and Ursula. He left them at their door, aud Susau shut herself into her chamber to think.
An hour afterwards, she entered Emma's room, who was theu undressing. She said what she had to say ; despair was iu her low voice; no anger; yet Emma flung herself down on tbe floor, and shrieked and sobbed iu self-reproach.
" I could not help it—^I could not help it," she shrieked forth. "'That first moment, wheu he suddenly appeared aud clasped me in bia embrace, drew my heart to him ; and my love for him is as living fire. Why was I so like you ? Why are you ao changed ? Half his time he calls me Susan ; his love has not altered, he says; only tbat I am now what you were. To love you, as you are now, he must change the object of his mind's af¬ fection—and he cauuot do it," y " Next to him, who waa my second self, I have loved you," moaned Susan, as she sat ou a low chair, and rocked herself to aud fro, " I have cherished you as something more precious tbau self; I promised our mother to do so, on her death bed, and thia is my reward!"
It waa a strange scene. Emma sobbiug and writhing ou the carpet in her white night dress.
" I would not have brought this misery to you purposely," she said, " aud we never meant you to kuow it; I cannot think how itis you do. When once you and he have sailed, I shall sit down and hug my uubap- piness, and I hope it will kill me, Susan, aud then yoti'll be revenged."
" Iwould have sacrificed my life for yon," whispered Susan; " I must now sacrifice wbat is far dearer. You must be the one to sail with bim: not I."
"Susau ! you shall never sacrifice yourself
forme! I "
" No more," interrupted Suaan. ''My reso¬ lution is taken, and I came to tell it you. I hope that time will Iw mercifnl to mo; to us both."
Suaan left the room as she spoke, and tbere atood Ursula.
"Susan. I heard you in there; I almost hoped you were beating her We must send her away to aunt's to-morrow morning, until the wedding is over."
"Oh, Ursula," she wailed, in a lone of the deepest anguish, "can you not see what must be ? The wedding must be hers, not miue ; she must marry Mr. Camagie.**
" Give in to those two false ones !" uttered Ursula.    "You never ahall,"
" For my own sakti as mach as hers,*' mur¬ mured Susan. "To marry him, whea his love haa openly left me, might be to enter on a life of reproach from him, certainly of coldness, possibly of neglect and cruelty,— Ursula, that is more tbau I could bear, will have one more interview with bim, and then leave till they are gone. You must must superintend wbat is required by Emma." "What will the neighbors say?" wondered Ursula.   And Ursula shivered.
She held her interview with Mr. Carnagie .jvhen morning came, but what took place at it was never spoken of by either. Susan's face was swollen with crying when she came ont, and he looked more troubled and an¬ noyed tban he bad ever looked beforH ; hold¬ ing the unfortunate gold ring between his fingers in a dubious way, as if he did not know wbat to do with it. The chaise was at , tbe door to convey her to Stopton, on her way to her aunt's, when, as she waa stepping into it, Frances Maitland came racing down.
" What is all this rumor, Sasan ?" she de¬ manded. "That you a:e going away, and that Emma is to marry Mr. Carnagie. I wiU not have such folly. I have come to stop it. The country will cry shame upou her and him. Lock her up, and keep her upon bread and water. You have sacrificed enough for her, I think, without .sacrificing yonr hns" band."
" Say no more, Frauces," was her only anawer;   "I cannot bear it."
She waved her adieu, aud drove away with a breaking heart. Never to returu home until long after Mr. Camagie aud Emma hia wife had sailed for Barbadoes.
" They will have no luck," was the com¬ ment of Frances Maitlaud.
