CHAPTER HI.
Fifteen years ofmy life iu Itidiii were uver; auotber " nasi" bad clo.^»'"l behiml uih. The incj.ienis of this time wer« so distinct, and so totally UQcouuecttid with the pr«vion> ynars, that it would uot be dilficult to brtH«ve that tbey scarcely belouged to tbe same individu- ftl.—Siiou, very .soon after niy leaving England, the death of my beloved mother took away almost the ouly link that bound me in inti¬ mate as5oci.tlions witb home.
My sister Jane had been married not long btifore lhi:! event to Jobo Hartland. Between him and myself there had never been much cordiality ; but I was glad tbat my sister was suitably married and provided for. Slie wrote to me bnt seldom, and .seemed as resolved not to tell rae any news of people who bad once so mucb interested me as I was not to ask for it. My poor mother had been my correspondent, and I felt that her letters were her occupation—that nbe was wilh me while she wrote, and ber prr'sfni;^' j^-f'-nied with ine as I read her letters.-- -Uut with my tir^tyr it ¦was diflerent; hers were r^liorter letters, and
iriend, if it must be positive, mj answer is —0 dear t I oan't qaite oommit myself hy saying yes. So, pray exoaseme; and, with kindest regards, beliere me.
Yours Affeotionately, Rose.
"P. S.—I forgot to mention that Ihave one sweet little angel-pledge of married life.— She ia awild bird, and very tall of her age.\
" Good heaveoSr how altered I" I exclaim¬ ed, throwing down theletter. "Is this tbe simple artless May-rose ? Surely more than fifteen years of worldliuess and folly must have passed over that Iieart. She is free, indeed; bat what a blessing she has notao* oepted me!"
Before Z read the answer from Juatina, I turned to Williamson's letter. - Vain had been all his inqairies after Miss Dering—all that he knew was that she had gone with her father and mother to-live in that very vagne locality—" abroad." Some one had told him that she was dead—another, that she wal married, and it was her mother who was dead—then he heard it was her father who was dead—and last, and with more probabil¬ ity, that her mother was dead, and her father had married again ; bat of herself personally, he could leam nothing.
Let Justina'a letter speak for itself:
"My Deau Sib,—In alluding to the days of sin and folly which yon designate as*^ hap¬ py yonth,' I see too great a probability that you are still unconvinced ofthe great fact of man's utter misery. I am surprised at your thinking of so important an affair as marriage withont an inquiry into the state ofmy soul, and it shows me tbe lamentable oondition of worldlioess you are in. I am happy to say that till last February twelvemonth I was al¬ lowed to multiply my trangressions by living to tbe world, so that, up to the moment of my conversion, I was misled by no false mor¬ al motivea. A siugle sermon from tbat trnly pions minister, the Rev. Samael Smalley, showed me the evil ofmy ways. Ifyou can give me any stidfactory account ofyonrself, which I mnch fear, from your letter will not he the case, I shall be happy to confer with you on the subject you mention when you retum. I am still unmarried, but devote all my time and means to tbe enlightenment of snch unhappy frends wbo are etill groping in darkuess, in which I am aided by the tra¬ ly delightful mind of Mr. Smalley. A most interesting case has fallen nuder onr view —a worldly, bwautiful, and rich widow, whose conversion nnder Providence we hope to effect, and which will be a bright jewel in the saintly crown of pious Mr. Smalley and mr humble self. The name of this daughter of Philistia is Lady Coddleton, a neighbor of mine in Hampshire, As to that nnhappy darkened individual, the General, my late guardian, notbing will induce him to listen to any exhortations to improve his frame of mind, and the Rev. Mr. Smalley has submit¬ ted to more indignilies from him thau I can u-ention withoat pain. As you ask for a pos¬ itive answer to your proposal of marriage, I will tell yon candidly that I accept it, and shall receive yon (1). V.) when you arrive, as my affianced husbaud. I beg to remain sincerely yours, Justixa Wabneb."
I read this epistle throngh once, and I con¬ fess the effect it had on me was to provoke the heartiest fit of laughter I had known for mauy a day. I read it over again and was rather sobered by the announcement at the end; this was the only part of it that was characteristic—the only part I realise as heine written by the lively, high-spirited brunette. I remembered well the scene atthe ball, when
she had taken my compliments au pied de la anolocie.s for want of time, and its beinc "only   , ., ,   ,       . •    ¦ , j      „   n . n-     ti

half an bour to the post, i  and  the " haby i ^„ .„  ,,      ,     „,.„ ^ ,.„,  ^r
^     ' "^ I fjeneral" ou the spot,    lhe same kind of
teething," and "dear John waiting for her to go out"—all, in short, that so forcibly tells the absent he is the last of all to be attended to, that '* time'- is to he had for everything bnt to write to him. This disgusted me at at last, and the home-communications were " few and far between" enougb.
It had been neoessary to state thus much in order to explain that after fifteen years, bron¬ zed iu a tropical sun, and with iron-gray hair I tamed my thoughts homeward, with scarce¬ ly the certainty of one friendly face to greet me, or one hand to clasp mine. The deso- lateness of this coming home dismayed me ; my thoughts tumed vividly to the past, and I forgot the fiight of years. The Geueral—I omitted to mention him—was still living, bat almost childish. It was understood that he would leave all he had to the Hartlands, who lived near him.—^To this I was tolerably in¬ different by a singular event, a history in itself- Ihad becomepossessor of considerable wealth, bequeathed to me by a native of high caste, to whom I had been able to render some ser¬ vice. Then it was that I felt that longing de¬ sire for home in the abstraot, which in the reality was so dreary to me ; and then it was that the singular fact of my triple engage¬ ment came back npon me, and I took a some¬ what hazardous resolation—I wrote a letter to each of the three women to whom I had heen betrothed. Keader, with the silken curls do not smile and shake your head. I did this seriously and candidly. I kuew not what had become of either of these women, who had in turn engrossed my youthful fancy. Strangely enough, not oue trace had I of their destiny; but giving my simple blushing May rose the prior olaim, I wrote to each, offering my hand, if they, tbat is either of them, chose to accept it.
It was some puzzle to me how to get the lettera conveyed to tbem ; but a lawyerfrieud who was sailing for England, and to whom I confided the delicate mission, famished with what slight clues Iconld givehim, undertook to find out " the parties," and to communi¬ cate to me the result.
This was something for me to forward to : I had pat my destiny out of my own power, and that stroug life of the affections, in which alone I conld live, clung rather to  those  old associations than to any new ties.    I bad ac¬ quired the habit, too,of waiting, I willnot say patiently, but of looking forward as those only can do who live iu th« colonies, and with whom every transaction depends on a distant post; the answer to thrt simplest question of tbe commonest decision  being a matter of montha of waiting. The habit of looking for¬ ward to a distaut day is only learned in ban¬ ishment, and perhaps it makes tbe time pass more quickly.—At last a letter arrived from "Williamson; I eagerly tore it open, and fonn d two enclosures, .sealed, aud addressod to me. There was oue in a hand I recognised instant> ly, even thoagh its charactHr  was changed : it was that of tbe May rose; but a  much freer, more careless haud thau formerly, with inordinately long tails to tli« y's and g's.    I gazed loug on the superscription, remembtfr- ing all tl e neatly written uotus, on pink paper that had ouce so gladdened my eyes ; then I looked at the seal and tried to guess the con¬ tents.   The seal had a widow's lozenge on it. Next, with a strange  perversity to prolong suspense, I examined the other letter. It was not the writing of Hester Dering ; that I saw at a glauce ; It was that of Jaslina.    I   h«Id one in eiiher haud, as if weighing Iheui iua halance, and wondered, as  I had wondered fifleen years ago, which of the two would de¬ cide my fate, hesitating which I shoald open first. The first love prevailed, and I tore open, the seal of Rose's letter.    It was asfollows:— "Who  wonld have  thoaght  itl   So  you are really and truly in the land of the living, and not eutirely used up iu that horrid hot country 1"    (I glanced at the signatare, it was" Rose "¦^—or I shoald have thonght it more likely to be   Justina.     **Pray  come baok again," it went on.   "Je sais enohan- tee, ravie, delighted, charmed to hear you are likely to be in town this season, which will not he quite over ifyou make haste.   I didnot go out all last year, becaase Iwas in weeds, and was in such  very bad spirits, of of coarse of my bereavement.   Ah, my dear friend, great has been my amotion, and  so very kind of him to leave me so well off.— Bat that will not influeQce yoo, I   am sure, as you did not know it, and shall not make any di^erence to me, though, I cannot afford to marry upon nothing, aa \ have my position to keep ap, and all that, and don't mach like a mereHr. after being Lady Coddleton, though. onlyakxught.   But I reipember yon very well, and never can forget—and yon promised to be good-looking, thbagli such a boy then ; and I was very nnhappy, and you don't de¬ serve I sliould forgive yoa.   lam aorry for F       one thing in yotir letter, whiok is, that I must senda|M)Bitiye answer, for who knows ifhat you have tturned out ?

handB the pattern of the red riding-hood capes in wbioh the girls were to be pictures¬ quely attired. Then her engagements inter¬ fered, and it grew to be a Sunday, and not week-day school. Theu the season oame on, and she must go to town, so that a sohool- mistress was hired to supply her place ; and perhaps the little soholars did not lose very mnoh by the ezohaoge, aithoagh. they were allowed to say coold and shoold, t-o, toe and p- u-t, puf, making it rhyme to but; and thoagh their missing /t's were not always oalled for.
Fortunately, before her property had be¬ come Beriously impaired by experimental farming, a tenant was found for the eatate i and heartily tired of playiug the sqaireas, Juatina went to Paris, Rome, Naples and Vienna, never missing London seasons, and all their diFtsipatlons. Aiter an abaenoe of some years, ahe had returned to Whitethorns, bat it was not there that she had received and answered my proposal from India; she had reoeived it during a visit to Cheltenham, whioh had beoome a favorite plaoe of resort to her, since she had, as she said, *'given up the world."
Althongh I had been very impatient and curioaa to see my affianced bride, yet strange as it may seena, I continued at my sister's, within a few miles of Whitethorn's, for sev¬ eral weeks before I oould make up my mind to present myself. I felt that it was inevita¬ ble, but I also felt it was very mnoh as ifl had to pull the string of a shower-bath, or touch the wire ofan electrical machine.
My long residence in India had greatly in¬ creased my indolent predilection for a "qniet life;" and it seemed to me, that in retarnlng to the associatious of my boyish days, I re¬ taraed to juj uncomortable sensations of boyish shyness.
It was rather a relief to me, therefore, tbat s^me indispensable business called me to London, from whence I meant to go at once to the General's; aud when there, of course, pay my devoirs to Jastina. I was escorted to the railway station by a whole bevy of nieces and nephews, and had multitudes of commissions to execute for them all—from riding-hats and feathers of the last wide¬ awake fashion for the elder girls, tothe largest Noah's Ark that ever was made for little Teddy, and a rocking-horse with a real skin for Jem.
ou the spot, nervous sensation came over me, and I again wished I Itad uot " committed myself."
Then I read the letter a third time, and failed to realise its contents. I conld not imagine one word of it to have been written by Justina—the Jastina of other times. I dwelt upon this so long, that from a sort of vague curiosity grew up a positive anxiety on the subject. I was anxions to see Jastina again. I wondered if she bad grown old- fashion-looking and dowdy, and wore bonnets to match her letter—ifahe talked like it, and had left off slang. Bat the interest was of some use; it was a point to look to, in the uncertain, misty horizon of "going bome."— I thoaght even complacently of her change of ideas; with little softening down, how deligh.t- ful a womau might Jastina be 1 Certainly, a dash of seriousness was jast what she want¬ ed; and if she had now a little too much, it was a faalt ou the right side. I felt obliged to Mr. Smalley, or whoever had been the cause of it; and visions passed through my miud of some tokens of respeot, in th.e shape cf a present—shoald it be an inlaid writing- desk, or a shawl for his good old wife, or a set of splendid chessmen 1
These thoughts engaged me daring my pre¬ parations for a prompt departure and on the overland journey home. As I got nearer Eng¬ land, the old memories and associations re¬ vived more strongly. I told myself again and again that fifteen years had passed, and every¬ thing was changed ; but all tbat intervening time with me had been spent among other thoughts and feelings; nothing in my own life had acted upon the previous impressions; it was completely separated from them, aud I felt as if the other two parts should fit into each other, just leaving out the interxoediate fifteen years of my Indian life, as though, they had been only a dream. I had not a single intimate frieud In England, and I have related how entirely I was without correspondents. My first visit was to my sister, Mrs. Hartland, to whom I had written on arriving. They all seemed very glad to see me, and I soon made myself at home. I asked many questions about old friends, and especially about Hester Bering. All that Jane knew was that her mother was dead, and her father had married again. The step-mother was an atrocious woman. Hester had bome with her long, aud yet had refused many good offers of mar¬ riage. At last, she went to live with her auut, and my sister had for many years lost sight of her.
I felt a delicacy in mentioning Heater to Hartland. Nothiug should have induced me to name her; bat wheu we were left alone after dinner, he saddenly exclaimed, with all tbe simplicity of a child, *' By-the-by, Gerald, what confounded mistake of yours was that about He.^ter Dering? Why didn't you mar¬ ry, after all? She was a deuced nice girl, at tbat time, I remember."
After this, I did not scruple to try aud get some information from him on tbe subject; but he knew nothing in addition to what his wife liad told me, except that her father had had a terrible " smash " iu his affairs, aud had died suddenly. Neither John Hartland nor my sister had any acqaaiutance with Lady Coddleton, beyond knowing she had taken a house in tbe neighborhood for the summer mouths. "I fonnd they were uot eveu aware of her identify with the Rose May of my early days, and I did not enlighten them. Of Jua¬ tina they told me much, and I soon discovered the information was tinctured with a little jealousy qf hf-r great interest with the Gen eral. They both disliked her in their different ways—Jane, because she had a vague idea that she stood iu the way of tbe preferment of herself and children; and John Hartland, bscanse she had onoe caricattwed him in the hunting field.
I therefore took all they said with the al¬ lowance of a beavy disconnt for the General'a dispated parse; aud in my own case, I ob¬ served that as soou as they had ascertained I was more than independent (how much more, I did not divulge,) and had no designs on the inheritance, they grew quite fond of me, and were delighted to see me back.

CHAPTER IV. While I waited at the railway atation, a train in the contrary direction to the one for which I was waitiug, stopped at the station. There were no passengers to alight or depart, and it did not stop half a minate. I looked vaguely in at them as they looked vagnely ont—it was again in motiou ; the hiss and the snort and the grant of the mighty animal all a uovelly to me, excited my attention ; but through it all I heard a souad, a voice, a sadden exclaminatiou, and my name was spoken in a tone I should have recognised anywhere. A face looked out from one of tbe carriages—it was her face—Hester's ! I coald not tell if she were altered ; I only saw it was herself, aui she was gone. The train whirled ou, aud I stood like one bewildered. I was roused by the ringing of another bell, and a bustle among the porters ; the up-traiu was arriving. My first impulse had heen to start off in the direction in which I had seen Hester going ; but the utter Impos¬ sibility of a clue to where she was going, stopped me. Still, I had SM^n her; she lived ; she had recognised me, and this was such unutterable happiness, that I thought noth¬ ing of obstacles, and almost forgot my ticket and other necasaary preliminaries before I took my seat iu the train for Loudou.
I had the carriage to myself till we stopped at the next atation. There a britzska was waiting, in which sat a lady so muffled in furs and veils thaflt could not distinguish her features, for I had not yet become accus¬ tomed to the desolate feeliug that I was un¬ likely to meet auy face I knew. A footman and a "little foot page" were busied in bring¬ ing luggage; then there eutered tho carriage where I sat a dapper little French damsel, bearing a load of cloaks and cushions, which she arranged very carefully and daintily on the seat opposite to me, with a smiling " Par¬ don, monsieur, si je vous derange." The page tben handed her a basket, which might have contained a sleeping infant, so carefally was it passed from one to the other, and so warmly enveloped in a satin wadded coverlet. A aharp, snarling bark betrayed ita inmate— a very small white poodle, that appeared to entertain an unequivocal dislike to traveling, however commodiously his journeys were arranged. The bell rang, the dog barked, and the little French abigail was in great troable.
" Toinette, Toinette, mamma wants you di¬ rectly," screamed a child's voice.
" What can I do with Mouton ? He'll jump out if I leave him," said she, in veritable dis¬ tress,
" I will take care of the dog," I replied. She scarcely atopped to thank me, but sprung out of the carriage to assist her mis- trees, whom I expected to find some helpless invalid, and scarcely changed my opinion as I saw the bundle of shawls and veils approach which I had seen in the brltzska.
'* No time to lose, ma'am; train just start¬ ing," exolaimed the guard.
But the lady did not hurry her languid haughty pace. I thoaght, however, that it was only in bravado, for ahe jumped inlo the carriage lightly enough. She drew back when ahe saw me, and aaid :
" Toinette, did I not desire you to get me an empty carriage all to myself ?"
" Yes, miledi; but monsieur is so very fltTTia6c/, and takes auch good care of Mouton." At this momeut, my thonghts traveled mauy years back, and I remembered my first iutroduction to Justina, and her appropriation of my Skye terrier. I saw her again as she aat on tbe floor coaxing the wounded animal, and her loug, wild cnrls, dropping to the car¬ pet. I fell into a reverie, aud forgot to observe whether the lady of the shawls and cloaks had lifted her veil A tall, lank girl, about fourteen years old, dressed in very short pet¬ ticoats and a child's flapped hat, had also taken her place in tbe carriage by the side of Maraselle Toinette. Thia yonng lady was evidently not on good terms with Mouton, aud frequently elicited a anarl by aundry aiy pinchea, an amusement she seemed greatly lo eujoy.
"Look, ma, look how crosa he is; how he hatea me."
" Zittie darling," returued the lady, sooth¬ ing the snarling favorite—" Zittie beaaty I has zou got a naughty, cruel siater f"
"La, ma! how can you talk aol Siater, indeed!"
"I^osamond, child, you are quite beyond me—^yoa are so boisterous! I ahall be ao glad when your new governess comes 1— Toinette have you got my salts ? Dere, den, san't we be glad, Mouton, zue love, sau't we be left in peace ?"
It waa very atrange, but in the tendnr ac¬ cents, pronounced in a jargon anpposed to he suited to canine apprehension, I aeemed to hear a tone that vibrated in the past.
Tbe languid, fine lady voice in which she addressed her danghter, dissipated the illu¬ sion, but it always returned wheu she talked to Mouton. Snrely, snrely, I had heard that voice. I became quite anxious that she shonld raise her veil, and it was not very long hefore my curiosity waa gratified. The thicker veil thrown off, there waa a pink bon¬ net enveloped in a shower, or what, I belive, ladies oall a/a// of blonde; nnder that there were roses, and a fall of ringlets ; under these there was ahighly rouged cheek, then there was a double chin, for the lady was fat, un¬ mistakably fat, in spite of staymakers. For one moment I turned away almost diaap¬ pointed ; \ had never aeen the faoe   before.—
by the lone ofthe fat lady coaxing her dog- she was looking my way, too, and smiling. Her teeth were white and even; she really was a very fine woman, especially when the knot of her pink bonnet-ribbon rather oon- oealed the doable ohin. That smile again— the oheek puckered into certain well-known dimples. Yea, I faad recognized her I It was the May-rosei very full-blown, indeed; and the pale strippling girl at ber side was her danghter. How strange it all seemed I she had not recognized me, and I resolved not tp make myself known, unless she .discovered me herself. I had the precaution, therefore, to disguiae my voice—that sure and ohange- less token of identity, and began by making friends with Mouton, who received my ad¬ dresses rather sulkily, and eyed me suspi¬ ciously, as though deteoting something amiss in my sadden huskineas. Sundry oirilities then passed as to the putting up or letting dowa of windows, the interohauge of Punch and the Illustrated News. Fair Eoaamond was reprimanded for iudtilging iu a loud voice aside to Toinette aa to my personal ap¬ pearance ; my brown faoe and gray hair I heard discussed.
"Rosamond,  Rosamond,   be quiet.     Oh, what a bltjaaing it will be when your govern¬ ess comes.   Won't it, Mouton ?" Then turning to me:
" It is suoh a difficult age to manaige ; yoa would hardly believe how tall she is of her age, and how yoang she is >"
*' I ahoald hardly believe her more than aix years old, to look at her mother," said I. " Oh, yoa flatter me; she is only just eleven—such a May-pole I Do you know this part of the conntry ?" she continued, quite graoionaly. " That large house on the hill ia Sir Lindesay Wolaey'a, a cousin of Sir William Coddleton's. Oh, I fofgot"—with a languid smile—"you do not know me—Lady Coddleton !" and ahe gave a sort of aelf-intro- dactoryhend. I bowed, and felt I ought to say something ; but as I was uot .prepared with a fictitious name, I said something about honor and pleasure, and then, rather adropos to nothing, asked ifahe kuew whether. Misa Warner's place was In this part of the conutry.
" Oh," aaid she, "do yon know her? She ia a neighbor of mine, and I see a great deal of her in the country. You know one must patronise one's country neighbors."
I looked at the portly Lady Coddleton, not at the May-roae, and smiled internally at the idea of of her patronizing Juatina Warner; in fact, 1 felt rather angry at her preaumption " When I knew Miss Warner," aaid I, "she did not require much patronising."
" Oh, they say she waa quite gay when ahe was young ; but ever siuce I have known her, she is just a mere hnmdrnm—no style, no fashion about her. Yon never saw such bon. nets as she wears. .And then a person meets nobodyat her honse bnt missionaries, and low- church preachers, and district-visiting old maids, and couverted Jews, and that kind of people ; nobody ooe ever saw before, or wished to see agaiu ; that odious Mr. Smalley, too!" " Ha!" said I.
Lady Coddleton stopped, and seemed sud¬ denly to recollect that I was a stranger; but once in the talking vein, it was uot difficult to set ber off again.
" Perhaps you are evangelical," ahe said, "and if so, of courrte you have heard Mr. Smalley."
"No," said I, "no; Ihave only beard his name."
'* Of course, I dare say. you have hoard he is going to be married to Miss Warner ?"
" Married!" exclaimed I, quite atartled ont of my prudence. "I thoaght—I fanoied he was a married man."
" Is he indeed ? You dou't aay so! said the lady, with the eager satisfied air of a gossip who has just got a new bit of scandal. "Well, I always thoaght there was something sly and underhand about him; and I am quite sure he wears a wig. Bat I think, aa a friend, somebody ought to tell Miss Warner.
" Oh, pray don't think," said I—" don't im¬ agine I know anything about it, ora bont him. But why should Mias Waruer be told ?"
" Oh, dear, I thought yoa kuew that I aaid sbe is going to be married to him. Nobody e^er knew he was married before. Did dey, Mouton, ittie darling ?"
She always softenel off the edges of her speeches by a tender appeal to Mouton. I was rather astounded by what I heard, and had a very pardonable ouriosity to hear more; but I was afraid of aay direct questions, lest I should be interrogated in my tarn. Miss Rosamond came to my aid.
"La 1 ma, it is not Mr. Smalley at all that's to marry Mias Warner. Don't you know it's the new paraon?"
" Parson! Rosamond, who taught you sach a vulgar expression, and what should anch a child as yoa know about it ? Mouton Is quite shocked at you."
"Fray, let us have Misa Rosamond's news, however," aaid I.
"No, I won't tell you now," aaid the pre¬ cocious young lady, "though I do know a great deal more. Nurse Andrews told me; aud you know, ma, her husband ia Miss Warner'a coachman."
" So he is," said Lady Coddleton, with an air of conviction.    " Well, dear child ?"
"Why, old Mr. FuUerton has got a new curate at Stoke Leigh. Such a nice young man, narse Andrews says he is; only he likes to be oalled priest, aud nol a curate; aud he haa church ever so many times a day ; and he won't diue cnt on Friday ; aud Miss War¬ ner wanted to convert him—I don't know what for, nor what to; aud so Mr. Howard De Lacy, that's his name—such a pretty name, ia not it?—Mr. Howard De Lacy has quite cutout Mr. Smalley—and John Andrews is always going np to the parsonage with notea and game, aud aometimes little baskets of fruit and flowers; andJohuAudrews thinks—" The gossiping came to a sudden eud by tbe stopping of the train. I was so anxioas to avoid recognition tbat, after a very hasty offer ofmy services, which I scarcely waited tobave accepted or decliued, I quitted the carriagp, feeling a strauge sensation of relief in thus leaving the woman who had been the oblect of my early, and, as I then thought my nnchanging love. There was aomething hnmiliating in feeling myself, and seeing her so altered, The change in her, loss of the whole identity so complete—nothing left even to iutereat me. Simplicity and mere pretti- neaa, had theae been, then, the only charma ahe had 1 Now, she was an empty, vain, and vulgar woman. Oh, Mayrose, would I had not seen thee again, thus overblown, thua divested of all bloom. These thoughts re¬ curred, with others not less gloomy, as I eat at my politary dinner at tbe hotel. The account I had heard of Justina was not pleasant, but somehow I was seusihle of a certain feeling of relief aa I recalled tt. One thing waa certain—her engagemeut, if auch she oonsidered it, with me was aa yet un¬ known, and the vision I had seen of my he- loved Hester made me long to be free again. I was rather annoyed at jJady Coddleton not having recogniaed me—was I then grown snch an old fellow, sach a
letter to Miss Warner, introducing an imagi¬ nary friend of my own, and plead ing .iudiS' penaable basinesa to ^excuse my own delay in viaiting her at Whitethorns.
All waa aatisfactorily arranged—"Miss War¬ ner would he delighted to receive any friend , achool-room of mine," and had fixed the day for my visit. '

shy, disdaining a black patch, and trusting to my Indian bronzing for disguise, following the name of Mr. John Wood into the drawing- room of Juatina's houae. There was a sound of many voices, and it was a relief to me to see quite a large party assembled. I gave my name to the servant, and a lady at the farther end of ;the room rose and advanoed to meet me. Jastina Warner, was it indeed herself? The jetty and Inxariant hair which had been her ohief charaoteriatio was olosely confined under a cap of almost Quaker like plainness—there was a sharp angular look in her whole figure, and something alarmiugly deoided in her countenance.

How many, many timea has the question been asked of the city teacher, " How long are we going to have holiday?" Upon being told, a difference of opinion is often expressed. Some wish it was longer, and enquire why they can't have three montha. Some think they ought to have six months vacation, like they have in they conntry. Some think they would be satisfied with four months. Some of the more philosophic ones say," it is long enongh for we get rested, and ready for study in six

and hanging sleevea were the order of tbe day ; this made the absence of all snoh oma- | ment the more conspicuous in Jastina's ap- ! pearance. She wore a black or dark ailk \ dress, clinging cloae to her thin, spare figure whioh made her look like a very elderly oharity-girl.
She advanced to meet me, and as ahe spoke, her voioe reminded me so strongly of the past, that I was instantly alive to the necessity of disguising my own. There was one snd¬ den, quiok glance at my face, but it subsided into a blank coldness. I was provided with an ear-trumpet, and I wore spectacles. I could have wished there had been more feel' ing in the tone with which she shouted to me her inquiries after my health, and asked when she shoald see me at Whitethorns. Seeing ahe did not in the least recognise me, I apologised for my owu absence with great auction, and gaining courage to look round, I discovered in one of the party Lady Coddle¬ ton. Thia considerably complicated the "situa¬ tion ;" bat a senae of amusement came to my relief, and helped to free me from embarrass¬ ment.
Lady Coddleton bowed and smirked, and I took refage by her aide.   Justina said :
" Oh you know my good ueighbor. Lady Coddleton, Mr, Wood—will you take her in to dinner ?"
Of course, I could do no lesa than bow acquiescence; and found myself with the overblown May-rose by my side atthe diuner table, rather embarrassed by haviug to keep up my character of deafness, as ahe only re¬ qnired a listener, and I waa afraid to truat my voice more tbau 1 could help, fearing it might be recognised.
Justina took the ht^ad of thn tabic, aud at j her right hand was a tall, tuiu, youngish mau, who had handed her iu. Uis features were finely formed, and hi.s countenance pleasing, though somewhat melancholy. The peculiar character of his dress made me im¬ mediately recogniae him as the "nice" young tilergyman who liked to be called a priest.
" Mr. Smalley is cut out iudeed," said Lady Coddleton to me confidentially. " I do wonder which will aay grace."
I affected not to bear this remark, hut bow¬ ed in polite deafness.
I waa intently watching Jastina, aud obser¬ ved a tall, stout, florid-faced mau, with very black bair, whom I took for the butler, fidge¬ ting behind her chair. She looked annoyed aud discoucerted, and turned, as I thought, to give him some particular order about icing tbe champagne. His reply was iu a low tone; and with an air of defereSce and humility, he laid his hand ou his waistcoat, and raised his eyes to the ceiling, all of which I thonght was an odd pantomime for a butler; but still more was I surprised to see bim take the va¬ cant seat at the bottom of tbe table, oppoaite to Justina, looking round with an air of meek triumph as he did ao, and waving bia hand in a patronising way to the tall, thin man at Miss Warner's right, who forthwith said grace, and all sat down to table.
"Well, this is something uew !" said my loquacious neighbor. " Nobodyever aita there but the General; andnow there Is Mr. Smalley sitting at the bottom of the table, und Mr^ Howard De Lacey at the top. Which is it to be, I wonder ? How odd my meeting you iu the train! Bat you bave not asked after Mou¬ ton—^poor, dear, little Mouton. I have brought him here with me. We stay till next week. I have brought the child, too. Poor, dear Miss Warner is always so kind in asking her and her governess, too." "Soup?"
" No, thank yoa. Yon see I cau tal.k whilo yoa eat your soap;" and tbus she ran on, making me almoat wish myself deaf in reality* " Lady Coddleton," said Mr. Smalley, blaud. ly, from the end of the table, might I have the honor, the happiness of a glass of wine with yoa ? Which doyou take ? Champagne ? —not that I should presume to dictate."
[CON-CLUDED KEXT WEEK.]
HAPPINESS.
We have nothing to do with happiness. It comes, or it does not come. It obeya no regu¬ lation. It is secared by no plan, no wiadom, no fine scheme of thonght, no human policy or persuasion. The very caprices of life for¬ bid the idea of happiness. We are to under¬ go an ordeal—to work out a certaiu result— about which we ourselves bave no certaiuty. We are in the hands of a power in which our hands are powerless—which heeds Uttle hope, or sigh, or dream, or suffer. We must keep our hearts ailent; stifle what we can ; resign, aa readily as possible, wbat we can ; indulge in few expectati&na ; leave all that we can to the Power whose will is abso¬ lute, and before which all our purposea shrink into nothingneaa. I am not a fatalist, wben I believe in the Providence "That shapea onr ends, rongh hev them bow we will.''
I have erred like the rest, but I am not getting obdurate. I havo aimply survived hope—at leaat in all things iu tbia miaerable state of ordeal which we call life.
a great deal that we have learned-" So the matter is pretty well canvassed and eaoh is convinced that he is right, and ao they all re¬ main abont the same opinion slill.
There are a few however, a very few, who do not seem to look forward to this seasou, of play and pleasure, with tho same degree of delight, as manifested in their neighbora.— We ask what ia the reaaon ? tbey auswer that they dou't car* much about vacation' for they bave to say lessons at home every day, the same as if they were at school. Is this right ? Ia it best ? Does not a bow al¬ ways beut, lose its elasticity ? Do not chil¬ dren, when ao closely confined to study, lose their vivacity, and become dull, and stnpid scholars ?
They become weary, and tired of thia con_ stant application. Study loaes its interest, its delight. They look upon it as an irksome duty, aud long forsome cessation, or little relaxation, and they shonld have it.
We are opposed to long vacations. It has a tendency to defeat in part, its best object, tbe freshening ap of the miud, for fnrther study. The children forget a good part they have learned. The interest they may have felt in their studies is lost or weakened very much, and it requires montha to get up the interest again. Therefore we feel oppoaed to having the vacation deferred to one part of tbe year aud then a long one.
We believe it would accomplish mnch more good if divided, and the pupila have two or three weeks, two or three times a year. Wo know that, in expressing this opinion, we are oppoaing that of the mass of the teachers of this city. Eut what of that ? It is our caudid view, and as such we will freely express il, and leave those, who are uot yet settled iu their notions, ofthe justness of the matter, think upon it, aud then decide.
What if we should change the order of natnre ? What if we should not take oar nsnal nightly rest, but put it together.— Work for two weeks aud aud then sleep one ? What would be the result ? Can any argamen in favor of one long vacation, be found, that would not apply to the taking of fewer aud longer sleeps ? The farmer fiuds it au advan¬ tage to take frequeut aud short rests, as he goes on with the heaviest of his harvest.— " There is no time loat in whetting," is an aid adage, aud a trne ouo. Will it not apply with some force to the scholar ? Does it not help him to have more frequent respites, to whet np the keenness of his appetite for study? and induce him to be closer iu his application ? Childreu have a natural and inherent righ^ to enjoyment; and in our anxiety to prepare them for being usefal and intelligent mem¬ bers of society, we should be careful lest we overdo the matter, and make them dull, unhappy, or morose men and  women.
Learning may he made pleasant or irksome to the young, just aa we present it to tbem or force it upon them. It is human nature to rebel against compulsion, and yet a hair will lead them. If we divest ourselves selfishness iu this matter, and look out for the best good of the childreu, there is no doubt, but we will be led to pursue such a course, as will result in peace in our owu minds, and future bappiness in the lives of those dear ouea under our charge.
We know that this is a difficult matt*»r We kuow that human nature is very selfish. We are to apt to he so short sighted as to seek that for present gratification, whiuh re¬ sults in unhappiness to ourselves and others. But we hope that to those who are willing to learu, truth is leaching a betier way.

Young folks should be mannerly, but how to be is the question. Many good boys and girls feel that they cauuot behave to snit themselvea iu the presence of company.— They are awkward, clownish, rough. They feeltimid, bashful, and self-distruatful, the moment they are addressed by a stranger, or appear in oompany. There is but one way to get over thia feeling, and acquire easy and gracefal manners, that is, to do thebest they oan all the time at home as well as abroad.— Good manners are not learued so much as ac¬ quired by habit. They grow npon us by use- We must be courteous, agreeable, oivil, kind^ gentlemauly, aud womanly at home, and then it will become a kind of aecond nature every¬ where. A course rough manner at home, begets ahabit of roughness which we cannot lay off, if we try, when we go among stran¬ gers. The most agreeable persons we have ever known in compaay, are those that are niost agreeable at homo* Home ia the school for all tfae beat things.

A  LEAP FEOM THE KED  BEICK SCHOOL-HOUSE.
The school wa3 ended, and the teacher sat musingly iu her chair slowly putting by books and papers in the little red desk. She took up little Johnnie's slate, which sbe had taken away from him for makiug a noise.—• Turniug it over, she laughed at the uncouth house pictured on it, "I wonder what ray old drawing teacher would say to the prospective of that," she said. "How I wish I could give them lessons. Perbaps—perhaps"—she did not finish the sentence as she thoughtfully turned the key.
The next Sunday when the teacher went home, several miles away, she found time to look into her port folio, and chose from amoug its contents a crayou head, a sweet childish face with folded hands. Then a visit to the old garret, and taking from among the grim old family portraits, the one with the best frame, the sedate looking old lady, with her enormous cap-border, was knocked out, and the baby face installed instead.
Monday morning many werethecogitations amongthe children, as to the contents of the big brown parcel, which Miss H. had brought.
Waa it a big boob or sUte, or a "little black¬ board ?" "You know she said we needed a new black-board," suggested littlH Johuuie.
They found out in the aftt-rnoon, for lhe picture hunc over the d5gk. At night the teacher told them that if their parents were williug she would teach those who wished to stay au hour after school, two nights in the week, a few lessons in drawiug.
Tbe plan succeeded admirably. None could stay who bad not been good scholars. And aftnr tbe lessons were over, al) the ma¬ teriala were put away till the nest lessou.
The teacher herself was surprised at the additional infiuence the lessons gave her.— Besides serving as a reward for good conduct, through them aha became more intimately acquainted with her scholars.
Sometimes at night-, tired aud faint, she looked longingly up the hill, whero the droop¬ iog brauches of the old elm seemed to wave beckoniugly to her to come away, bnt she never regretted her labor of love.—Conn. School Journal.
DO THEY DNDEESTAND IT?
An old school-master said one day to a clergyman who came to examine hts school, ' I believe the children know their Catechism word for word.'
'Butdo they understand it? that is the question,' said the clergyman.
The schoolmaster only bowed respectfully and tbe examination began. A little boy had repeated the fifth commandment, ' Honour thy father and thy mother,' aud he waa de¬ sired to explain it. Instead of trying to do so, tbe little boy, with hia face covored with blusbea, said almost in a whisper:
'Yesterday I showed some atrauge gentle¬ man over the monntain. The sharp atones cut my feet, and the gentlemen saw tbat they were bleeding, and he gave me some money to huy shoes. I gave it to my mother, for she had no shoes eitber, and I thougbt I could go barefoot better than she could.'
The clergyman theu looked very muoh pleased, and the good old schoolmaster only said, * God give us His grace and blessing."  *-^»«-i

I'm uot deuyin' the women are fool¬ ish ; God Almighty made 'em to match the the meu—Some folks' tongaea are like olocka as run on strikin,' not to tell you the time o' the day, faut beoauae there's summat wrong i' their own inalde.
