Itwaaadismal ovening. A keen north¬ east wind was blowing, aUhough it had been miating Enffioientlj long in the earlier part of the day to render tho streets very filthy, cov¬ ering the pathways with a sort ofthick,sticky mud, aaid by uncomplimentary tourists to be peculiar to the city of C , as a woman turned quickly, yet with a sort of hesitation, out of P street into one of the obscure alleys whioh braooh from it. Her dress waa muoh unsuited to the season—early January —being of some light material which clung 80 closely to her somewhat tall figure as to seem nearly its only garment. A scanty ahawl was drawn closely round her shoulders, and a bonnet of light blue silk, now much soiled and faded, hid her face as much aa ahe oould possibly contrive it to do, while a pair (alaa I atill greater misery,) she feared ahe shonld not visit much longer : almost aii was gone ; and yet a place whioh ^he degradation and shame of visiting even "custom could not stale for her." Some poor are hom poor, struggling from their very birth~with all this world^s coarse realities. 'Loudly, and with » nnbated breath, they speak of their inany wauts ; neither ^ they blush wheu seen amoug the abject haunts of the poor ; if they do not absolutely parade their rags, neither do they feel shame for them. Tiiey stand together in the public thoroughfares, or at the doors oftheir dwell¬ ings, gossiping with eacb otberoftheir domes¬ tic affairs ; and whose husband is idle, whose child is ill, or who it is bas played some shabby trick upon another, Is fully and freely discussed ; and without in the least underrat¬ ing their many miseries and privations, or their great—all but miraculous—patience un¬ der them, there oan be no hesitation in as5;tfr- ing that they do not suffer as auother class of poor do—tliat mo3t unhappy ."Pttion of society, who hide their poverty as though it were a crime ; who shrink from its many meannesses with involuntary disgust ; who would fain veil their distresses from even the kind eyes of sympathy—those poor who havo seeu better daya. To this latternnhappyclass the woman evi-. j dently belonged, as she stood shiveriog in her j thiu garmeuts, aud yet perhaps trembliug as much from excitement as from oold, looking in through the wiodow, anxious, yet shrinking from mingliug with the rough, noisy crowd which filled the shop ; till at length a coarse- looking woman, themost tioisterous of them all, haviug concluded her business and left the place, she entered, aud gliding as quickly aa possible to the end ofthe counter, was soon attended lo by one of the assistants. A young man who seemed to know her, and observing that ahe held something grasped closely in her hand, said, sharply : " Come, come, let ua see what you have.— We are abont to close : it is late." As he spoke, she lifted her head, displaying as she did so a very pecuUar countenance. It was that of a woman two or three-and- thirty years old. Perhaps not so much ; but if not time, penury aud suQering had, indeed " worn it to the bone ; for the skin, ofa wax-like yellow, was strained over features nearlyentirelyfleahlesfl. The eyes were stink en and yqtj dark, aslwere the brows and hair which, rough and neglected-looking, was pnshed back from a low, broad brow, as she laid on the counter what she had grasped so firmly—it was a silver cross, such as usually hangs from the bea-ls used by Roman Cath¬ olics, in performing some uf the duvotions pecaliar to their creed Her colorless lips remained apart, in her eagerness to know his decision, as she muttered, (she could not speak aloud :) " As much as you can—aa much as you can." He look it up, aud with the slow, mechan¬ ical caution of trade, proceeded to test its quality, while she stood watching him with a kind of hungry eagerness. Yet, so accus¬ tomed had she been for some time back to disappointment, that it wonld have scarcely surprised her iV, returning it, he had said it was of no value. Bat such a thing did not occur ; for after a few minutes (which to her seemed hours,) he came to her, and said in so mauy words : "Three and sis." "Oh, no, nol" she answered, as her leau fingers grasped the edge of the counter, con- vnlsively. "Oh, uo, no; it wouM be of no use to me. I thought you would give seven shillings, at least; it is worth much more." And forgetting everything but the sick- longing whioh was to be gratified by a part of the price of the sacrifica, she was going on to speak of the purity of the silver, when the man cut her short by saying: " We can't give more than I say. We are ' about to close, take or leave it, as yoa like." " Oh, give me Gve shillings—give me five!" she exclaimed, iu tones of such anguish as pierced even his "Jail,cold ear" and heart; for, going np to a man who seemed to be the proprietor of the eslablishment, after a brief consultation with him he returned and placed the sum demanded, together with its ticket, in her haud. She looked at the latter for a moment, as if about to tear it, but did not ; and then, drawing her poor covering round her, she passed quickly out into the bleak, cold street once more. Retracing her steps in P ¦ street she again entered another shop. This time itwas a very different establishment, being a fash¬ ionable fruit store. Many porters without the counter were busy packing hampers, or opening boxes of fruit or foreign nuts, or pre¬ serves ; while mauy young girls inside were attending to people awaiting the different things they required.—Less bashfal, this time, she eutered without hesitation, and, al¬ though still timid, did nnt seem altogether to shrink with shame, until observing the su. percilious eyes of a young girl. Alas ! that so young, she should be so unfeeling, so un¬ womanly ! Grlaucing over her poor garments, a deep blush passed over Uer wan face, so deep that one wondered how the poor body oonld furni.<5h blood enough for the dye. And then, with tbe tone and accent of a lady, she asked what their grapes were a pound. A sneer curled the lip of the girl as she auswer¬ ed, " Half a guinea," and passed on to attend auother customer; as if there could be no necessity to wait any longer with oue so meanly, not to say strangely garbed. The poor woman hesitated, counted over again tbe few coins iu her haud. Her lips moved as if making some calculation, and then mild. ly asked if she conld give her a quarter of a ponnd, as they were for one who was very ill and longing for Ihem. It was in vaiu ; they could not make less thau a pound. With a deep sigh, sbe then selected three large orange.^, for which she paid sixptjoce, \ aud went away. Out again iuto the crowded thoroughfare, meeting hundreds of persons of whom not one looked on her with interest -or pity; of whom not one cared where she came frotn, or to what place she weut; until agaiu her way led her to a by-street, almost iu the subttrbd, and on entering tbe ooeu door of a mean-looking house, she waa met in the hall by a womau who seemed to be watcliiug for her. She placed three of tho remaining shillings in her hand. The woman nodded, and remarked, "All right—a month's rent." And then silently ascending the dirty stair¬ case, on opening a door at the very top'of the house, she stood iu tbe wretched garret that made her miserable home. As she entered, a voice—it was the voioe of a man—sxclaim- ed:— " Eow long you were—where are they ? Give me the grapea." "I have beautifal oranges," she said, gent¬ ly ; "but I could not get the grapes." " Oranges ? I will not taste them. Not get grapes. Why, they are plentifal as black¬ berries. I will not eat or drink anything at all to night," he continued, aa, after lighting the candle with a match, she proceeded to kindle a few sticks in the fire-plaoe. " But, I forgot," he added, "you most have your tea, of course; you can buy that because I can't drink it; hnt you could not get a few grapea for me—even if you tried." " I did try, Marmednke," said the woman *tbut they were too dear—half-a-guiuea a pound." " Who wanted a pound t" he answered; "a few would have satisfied me. How mnch did you get for the cross ?" "Five shillings," she said. " Five shilliDgfl l" he] exclaimed, triumph- giving sixpence for the oranges, I have only oue shilling and sixpence left, without kuowiug, God kuows, where to look for another penny, wht-ii that i^ gone ; how, then, cotiWt get the frnit yon long forf As for tea, ' I haven't tasted it since you gave it up." "Pahawl" besaid, "how I hateyourmock humility and wisdom. Piiy yonr sense didn't parchase somethiug better for you than it has doue." An expression passed over the woman'a face, as if the temptation to make a hitter re¬ ply wa.f almost irresistible ; but she conquer¬ ed it and remained silent. By this time the candle and the now hla- zing fire showed the whole extent of the place; it consisted of two rooms, one used as a kitchen or house-place, in a recess of whicfat near the fire-place, was her bed; it was a lit¬ tle straw, without any covering; a amall ricketty table, a chair, an old atool, and some wretched-looking articles in the way of cook- iu'^ utensils and ware were all else it con¬ tained. Within this was a closet in which was a bedstead, a tolerably comfortable bed, and, iu short, everything of oomfort to be fimnd in the place was there. It was from tbe inner room the voice came, in which the couversation had been carried on ; and now, as she entered it witb the lighted candle, the person to whom it belonged became visible. A man, looking still young, thoogh he was nearly six years older tbau his sister—for in that relationship did tbey staud towards eaoh other—who was evidently, to even tbe most casual observer, far advanced in consump¬ tion. He bad lashed bimself into a fury, and was now lyiug back, panting and ex¬ hausted, ou the pillow; his face, unlike his sister's, was fair—fair as a woman's; every blue veiu could be traced beneath tbe trans¬ parent skin ; but the eyes were of a cold light blue, aud lips slightly drawn back from the white, glistening teeth, gave an almost cruel expression to an otherwise handsomely sha- ¦pa . mouth. He was very near death, nearer than even his sisler—though she knew his course was uearly ended—imagined; for the fair brown hair, of which he had a profusion, clung close and damply to a brow already beaded with the death sweat. It was pitia¬ ble to see her as she stood there looking at him. the divided oranges on a small plate in her hand, longing to moisten his parched lipa with the cool juicy frnit, yet dreading to ex¬ cite him more by approaching to offer it to 6ue who seemed eqnally irritated by her speech or by her silence; at last he found hreath lo say, "Take away that light, go where I can't see you, take these d d things away." She did as he desired, withoat speaking. extinguishing the candle, sbe laid the plate on a little staud within reacb, knowing that before long he would be too glad to have them with him. Sbe then went out into the other room, and sitting down on a low stool, hid her face in her hands, not weeping —her trouble was far beyond that—but rook¬ ing herself to and fro, and muttering, bro¬ kenly, " So nearthe end I will not fail.— My mother's cross—my mother's cross I-^ Fallen to the uttermost depth, I cannot fall lower hut through crime. I mifsMiave pati¬ ence with him, he is dying." And yet this destitute, sufferiug woman sittiug there iu her sorrow, with darkness and poverty and death for her companion-— this dweller in the unwholesome by-ways of a city, was born in a pleasant country place, among many dear relatives and friends ; that wan, pinched face bad been dimpled and blooming in ils young beauty; that hair, now rough and neglected, had fallen upon her shoulders like dark silk, aud loitering by the shore of the sammer sea, or along the banks of merry inland streams, she had listened to the voice ofone who told her of her lovH- ness, yet who loved her for something far beyoud it—for her good, pure heart and mind and she had set for hours weaving sweet dreams of what was never to be, under the cool, green shadows of the leafy summer boughs. ol thin boots, ao broken as to be scarcely oapable of keepmg her feet from the mud in- antly.

Margaret Conway, Miss Conway, of Slum, ber Hill—that used to be her style aud title —was the only sister of the only brother who now lay dying in the little inner chamber.— Their father, in his lifetime, had moved in the rank of country gentleman, though strict¬ ly speaking had no claim to such a position, as he merely rented a large farm on cheap terms, but haviug married into a family of ancient descent, but reduced fortane, he was received into society which he would not otherwise dream of entering- His wife, a kind-hearted, indolent woman, somewhat silly in her ideas of a lady, never knew any¬ thiug ofhis affairs; and, provided she had every thing she asked for—which she always did—nerer tronbled herself aboat them.— Housekeeping and its details she couiidered entirely beneath her notice, aud immediately after her marriago launched intoa styleof living ill-suit-:d to her means ; while her hus¬ baud himself, too prettily vaiu, and anxions for show, strained,hi3 resources to the utmost utmost to supply her many drains she man¬ aged to establish his not very well-filled purse. He was a man at once weak and violent, ob¬ stinately attacbed to his own opiuion, aud having a perfect horror ofbeing thought poor; and so well did he keep up appearances, that most persons were induced to believe Mr. Conway a wealthy man. Iu fact, it was quite a settled belief that Marmaduke at his fath¬ er's "death would inherit a good property; and that Margaret's fortune at her marriage would not be less than three thousaud ponuds. Tme, some shrewd persons could bo fouud to smile at this ; but what matter ? the general¬ ity ofthe people believed it: and for the pres¬ ent at least all went smoothly. Mrs. Conway loved both her childreu foud- ly, hut the son seemed of tho two her favour¬ ite. He resembled her own aristocratic fam¬ ily in features and person, aud had all her own desire for outward show and high ao- quaiutances. While Margaret with her clear dark skin, black hair and eyes, and far more robuet frame, resembled the plebiau relatives of her father. Yet, wheu sometimes accused of this partiality, tbe mother always said she loved them both eqaally, but tbe Duke being more delicate, he required more care «nd pet¬ ting. It probably was so, for Margaret's life j up to her eighteenrh year was a happy one. ' She was much attached to her brother, who | was a yoang man of refined taste and litera-' tare. An excelleut musician and linguist, and of very pleasing, gentlemanlike manners, he gave in a high degree, a similar tone of refinement, aud taste for reading, to his sis¬ ter; though she was not possessed of any accomplishments, for with something of her mothtrr's indolence of character, she disliked the trouble of acquiring them, and had never beeu compelled to do so by others. So that afterwards, wben fortane turned, ahe found herself a clever rather thau an educated wo¬ man, posaesssd ofan odd assortment of infor¬ mation—the product of much desultory read¬ ing, of little use to herself, and entirely inca¬ pable of beiug communicated to others. In her eighteenth year she happened to accom¬ pany some gay friends of hers to the pretty little sea-bathing town of Q , and there first met with one whom she was destined never again to forget. He was a young mer¬ chant of Ct , with a prosperous business, and with a handsome eBtablisbmeut. He loved her almost as soon as he saw her; and she soon loved him with all the deep affection ' of her deep, strong nature. Honest, honor¬ able and manly, he made no aecret of his feelinga ; bat whether, in the privacy of the domestic circle to whioh ahe belonged, or in thepublic ball-room or walka ofthe gay little , town, he waa ever by her side, the open dia¬ play of his affeotion making her hright eyes he joined her. In constant interoourae three delicious montha stole over, and then oame the time for her return home. They parted; but thoufith her tears were falling, they parted less in sorrow thau in hope. Sbe was to tell her mother everything ; he was to follow in a fMW days, wheu he would lay saoh a state¬ ment before her friends as he had no doubt wonld satisfy them fully, and insure their speedy union—'not that she cared to hasten it; bnt it was so aweet to ba with him ; to raise her eyea and meet his gazing on her with such love; to feel the soft pressure of his hands on hers, or his fingers runniug fondly through her glossy hair I She wanted, too, to sbow bim her own home; to walk with him to all her favorite places, to show him her flower-garden and her books, her pet greyhound and bay-mare ; then she hoped he would like them all at home; and oh I she knew they would so like him / Poor girl I let her enjoy her imaginings : it will be long before she is so happy again.— For a fow days after her return home she could not assume conrage to tell her atory; hut at length, with a thousaud "simple wiles" to introdace his name, a tbonsand "innocent abames" dying her cheeks witb blushes at the sound of it, the indulgent ear of her mother received the tale, heard it with that affectionate interest that only a mother can feel in the welfare of har child, and long be¬ fore it was over was prepared to receive and love as a son, him who had so won the heart of her young daughter. She confirmed her hopes, too, of there being no difficuUy in tbe way of her attachment, and promised to speak of it to her father, that he might be prepared to receive a visit from her lover, now any day to be expected ; and Margaret, in her girlish shyness, proposed, and had her mother's consent to the proposal, to go for a few days to the houae of an intimate friend until all shoiild be arranged, when he \ should go aud bring her home. She went ; with her young hopes bearing the fairest blossoms—went, with all her hright day¬ dreams of the glad future, her yoang cheek 1 covered with love's soft blnshes, and the light I of her gentle joy shining in her aweet, dark ^ eyes. Ah! how aoon it was all over 1 The second day after, her brother, noi her lover, came to take her back; there was to be no marriage. He came, and was gone, never to return. She got uo explanation of why it | was so ; indeed, in her first dumb amazement and maiden shame—for her father rebuked her sternly for what he was pleased to term her forward conduct on the occasion—and afterwards, iu her listless misery, she asked for none. It was when years were passed she was enabled to guess the paltry, contempti¬ ble motives which had come between her and her happiness ; then it was too late to remedy her wronga. Her mother could tell her noth¬ ing, bnt that her father wa.s altogether oppo¬ aed to anything of the kiud; and that she feared tbat the terms of the young mau's re¬ jection were of so offensive a nature as to preclnde all hopes of his ever renewing his offer. Oh God I her misery, her obatinate un¬ belief that all could be over; her wild desire to kuow why it sboatd be .so; though still her awe of her father's fearful temper, and h«r dread of cauaing suffering to her mother, who sympathised with and tried to console Ler, kept her silent. Theu for a long time she had a vagne hope that something would occur to make all right again ; but, at leugtb, as day after day passed, and she heard noth¬ ing more, all humau interest died away within her bosom : her dull, listless apathy made her being a mere lifeless routine. Uer broth¬ er's manner, too, was changed towards her: always affectionate, he was now more ao than ever—as if, she thought (when she gave it a thoaght) that he sought to atoue to her for some secret wroug. Atone to herl Could he give back her life, if sheiay dead ? Could he make that happiness once more quick within her, which iu some mysterious way had been destroyed? Coald he bring her back the kiud, foud heart, uow lost to her forever ? yes, forever! for, five years after their separation, she saw hip marriage in a newspaper. She had no other way of bear¬ ing it, as her mother was now very delicate, and they lived quietly. Then she blamed him—blamed his inconstancy—unreasonably blpmed it, in her own mind thoagh for with "a proud caution," she never spoke his name. She forgot that while she was brooding over his memory in her comparative solitude, ma¬ king it, as it were, "the tyrant spirit of her thonght," he was out iu the world, meeting many fascinating women, and gazing on many fair faces, with the admiring eyes of man.— Yet she wronged him: he had not forgotten her, aud he loved her still; and thoagh fond of the wife he married, nay, though he mar¬ ried her because he was fond of her, there was an inner chamber in his heart which she could.never enter—an inner sanctuary which she could never reach—it was that sacred place where the meniory of his first love lay enshrined. It was the news of this marriage which first aroused her from her moral torpor; and then, atartled and stnng with self-re¬ proach, she looked upon her mother's fading face, and saw tbat she was dying—dying of the disease common to her family—consump¬ tion. Knew it, and blamed herself, even to angaish, that she had not known it long ago. Then, communing with her owu sou!, the truth of the lesson first came home to her, that "it is not good for mau to be alone"— that it is not good to live but for ourselves. Her mother lingered for two years, during which time she was scarcely ever one bour at a time from her side. Before her death she exacted a promise from Margaret that ahe would never leave her brother, as she had a presentiment that he wonld die of the same complaint ahe was now dying of herself, and would need all a sister's care. The promise was freely given, as, indeed, what promise could be refased at such a time, or what iu¬ dncement had ahe to refnse it ? Strangely enough, whether it was caused by her own altered manner, or for some other reason, she had never received a second offer of marriagei uor would she have accepted it if she had ; consequently sbe had no iuteution of Inaving him unless he married, or wished her todo so, which did not seem iu the least Hkely. Aud so, at last, her mother died ; aud, oh ! how she grieved for her, uo oue could ever know how much ; how she exaggerated every slight auuoyauce sho fancied sbo had over given her; how she remembered all her love aud care, and, above all, how she remembered hor sympathy, kind and aincere, in the story of her affeotions, in its happiness aud ita dis¬ appointment ; how lonely she was without her. Never again coald she meet with anch a friend—never again. Little more thau a year aftor, her father died, also, suddenly ; and then she knew for, the first time, what her brother bad known long, that his affaira were hopeleaaly involved, and had been so for years: the farm waa mortgaged to its full value, and tho mort¬ gagee—a grasping man, eager to obtain his own—aiezed tho flr.-?t opportnnity of foreclo¬ sing, aud so they lost possession of their early home, and were thrown upon the world with scarcely a hundred potmds in thoir pos¬ session. Then began the usual story. Many re¬ mained aloof, from whom they had expected kindness. Some were kind, from whom they had expected nothing, aud, after a short timo, and some consultation between themselves, they resolved to remove into C—, where Mar¬ maduke hoped to turn his accomplishments to some account, and where, perhaps, some¬ thing would also tum np for Margaret. But it is easier to aeud advertisements to the newspapers, than to obtain either pupils or 'Situationa through them: and when at last a few of the former came to Marmaduke, the remuneration -proved a mere pittance. Then hia health gave way, and after struggling long againat the neoessity, they were obh'ged to be giveu up; and as, in their proud humil- i^, they had broken off all iuteroourse with the place they had left—indeed none were that you forgive me ; for our mother's sake, left there who oared for them, now—they if not for mine, who loved us both so well I" were loat sight of by al!; until, sinking grad- .She oould not say it; no, not for the salva. ally lower and lower, we find them, thia bleak tion of her aonl. She could not say i*- tben ; Januaty uight, the inmates oC a garret, ono for his words had brought baok past times to dying, the other almost envying the death her, and their events stirring up once more which was to release bim from bo mach auf- within he"r heart feelinga whioh sho beliovod feriug. Marmaduke was naturally sweet- had been deatroyed, glad she felt oven now tempered ; bnt sickness and aorrow had ren- to hear she had not been given up as calmly dered him exacting and unreasonable; and as ahe thought she had been. Love ahe felt he felt this himaelf; for after saying many for him even still, the husband of another; wounding, bitter things, he would recall hor, angry contempt, too, arose withiu her at the and apologize. He knew, that he had onco paltry vanity which had ruined her; and yet grievously injured her, though ahe knew.it a strange feeling of pity for him who by thia not, and the reoolleotion of it preyed upon confeasion—late aa it waa—reatored her to him now. He would aometimes aay, too, her self-respect; for sho bad often saffered knowing he was speaking falsely, that she _ keenly in despising herself for clinging, was tired of him, and anxioua for his death : through change of time and for tune, to the and though her silence under the accusation memory of one who had ao lightly forgotteu irritated him at the time, softened hy her pa- her. But though then she could uot speak tience, he would call her back to him geatly» as he did now: " fifargaret." She arose inatantly, and went to him. "Shalli bring a light,Marmadukef" ahe asked, as if nothing unkind had been so lato¬ ly said to her. " Yea I should like a light," he answered; " bring it in." tho forgivenesa ho asked for, with the silent ; kiss, her pale lipa preaaed upon his upraised ' brow, she sealed a covenant with herself that she would try to forgive him in his grave.— He seemed to take the silent caress for what he demauded, and was satisfied. And after j a pause, Margaret said to him : " Now, brother, let me agaiu apeak about what you kuow I am so anxious; for surely And she did so; thia time he was aitting | you are not one of those who thiuk tke pres- upright in the bed, his face muoh flushed and ; sence of a clergyman will hasten death ! Do animated; he had eaten aome of the oranges j let me send for one. and was breathing easily. "Yon are too patient with me," said Mar¬ maduke : " sit down. I was very wrong a while ago.' " Bring apriest "into this den?" he exclaim¬ ed. "No, I will not." "DearMarmaduke," persisted his sister, "then I must bring one without your loave. " Do not apeak of it, Dake," she anawered, | You know he will notice the placo Uttle in as ahe took her seat by the aide of the bed ; " you know I do not mind it." j " I like you to call me Duke," he said ; | "you always used to call me ao when you were a child. Do you remember when we hid the applea in tbe grass ?" "I think I do," ahe said, humoring hisl desire to talk; " it was near the pool, in the castle meadow." It waa mournful to look np, and listen to thom speaking of the times so long ago—the the dying man and the sad, troubled woman— wben they first hid the apples in the grass. " I am aorry," he went on, musingly—" I am sorry you ever went that summer to Q , we were never happy aince, aud I thiuk you never really liked me either; you never cal¬ led mo Dake until to-night, aince then." "My dear Dnke, yoa know that is ouly faucy," said his sister. " I loved you always; never moro than now." " Ah I yea," he answered, qneruously, "per¬ haps so; but at auy rate, it is only because yoa don't know." " Don't know what?" sho asked. " Did you uever hear why it was you were not permitted to marry?" he demauded. " No," said Margaret; "but I thiuk I havo gnes.sed correctly, from my knowledge of my father's character, aud what has siuce hap¬ pened ; I know it was because he would not admit he had no fortane to offer with me, and preferred sacrificing my happiuess to confes sing that he was a poor, not to say au involv¬ ed man." " You bave guessed correctly, n^a far as my father waa coucerued," said Marmaduke.— "Now I will tell you my share iu tho busi¬ uess. I havo long wished to do so." "It would merely excite you," replied Margaret, " and I have uo desire to kuow; all these thiugs occarred long :igD; let them rest." " No, no, I must tell," said ho, " I prefer it." So she contradicted him no more, and he went on : "The day your lover arrived to see my father," he said, " I happened to be oat, abou t the ground in the high field—it was where tbe men were stackingcorn—and on entering the hall on my return I met him coming ont, looking very much excited. I guessed at once who ho was, thongh I had never seen him ; and he seemed to do tho same by me, for be came up to me at once, and said : 'Mr. Con¬ way, your father has insulted me grossly.'— I was amazed, hut said it was probably a mis¬ understanding, and asked what tbe offence was. ' Ue haa refused hia aanotion to my marriage with your sister, now, or at any time,' he aaid, ' and will give me no reason for his doing eo ; now, without wishing to be gailty of the absurdity of speaking well ofl myself, I will aay that my position is fully equal to his; I have shown him that I possess tbe meaus of keeping bis danghter in the sphere in whioh ahe haa been accustomed to move. I have assured myself that, all un¬ worthy as I am, she has given me her affec¬ tions. What, then, cau I call it bat an insult to be rejected in so summary a manner, and without any cause assigned ?' After a mo¬ ment's thought, I said, ' if you wait for a short time, I will speak to my father again. I do not understand this at all.' And he did wait iu the little breakfast room. You re¬ member, Mag, it looked out on my mother's little garden. I wonder what use they mako of it now. The sun used to bo alwaya ou one spot on the carpet near the work-table, at noon. I marked it myself with ink, whon a boy. Well, no matter, he waited there until I came. There was a large gerauium in tho lower window, and when I came back he had, without beiug iu the least conscious of wbal he was doing, atripped it of nearly every leaf; they were all scattered about the lloor. And when I did come I had no comfort to give him. On pressing my father to the utmost for au explanation, he at length, in a violent burst of rage, let me into the secret of his involvmeuta, stunning me with the sudden¬ ness of the blow, Ah ! Margaret, it waa not alone your young hopes which were that day blighted. I had long loved one gentle aud good—too good for me—who was poor. I had been a great doal with her, telling her, iu fact, tbat I loved hor, in all but worda. But from that day I considered myaelf bouud in houor to withdraw. Why shonld I, a beggar, seek to bring her to my own distress ? Yet | it has often pierced my heart to seo the puz¬ zled look upou her aad, aweet face, aa thongh she were seeking to horaelf for some cause of the change, ahrinking from blaming mo." Margaret spoko abraptly here: "You ahould havo told hor all. There is no love without truat, aud you would have spared a genlle heart much sorrow if, confiding iu her, you had aaid, ' I lovo yoa, though wo caunot wed, as wo are both so poor !' But it is ter¬ rible to bo left without any explanation.— However," she continued, " that waa ker les- BOD of lifa." She ia happy-looking enoagh now. I eaw hor the other day in the street, in tho dress of a Sister of Mercy." '•You know, then, that I loved Annie Wol- stead f" aaid her brother. " Yes, it waa plain enough once," aaid Mar¬ garet ; "^but you tiro yourself speaking. Lie down now and reat." "Not until I toll yon the rest," he said.— " You know, like both our parents, how I waa the alavo of appearances; and so my first 'im¬ pulse was concealment. I returned theu meroly to tell him—ao anxiously awaiting me—that, withoat meaning the slightest of¬ feuce to him, aud thoagh much flattered by his propoaal, my father had auccaeded iu making it clear to me that it could not be en¬ tertained. He left me, deeply wonnded in his pride as well as in his love—telling me fraukiy he would endeavor to See yonrself, if possible. He knew you were not at home, and that failing, that he would write to you ; aud that his future acts should be guided by your reply. I fruatratad hoth intentions by bringing you home at once, aud, intercepting his letter to you, I burned it—of course withont breaking the seal. He waa naturally mnoh hurt by yonr apparent neglect of his appeal, and you equally hurt at hia appareut readiness in taking hia dismissal; but as a womau, not in a position to take any step in the matter aa it atood, the affair ended—as I foresaw it would—in a total estrangement.— I see now (when It is too late) how wrong we his anxiety about youraelf; and once he comes I am anre you will like it yonrself aud be much eaaier." " I tell you," he said, " I am much better as it is—mnoh better 1 I shall be about again aoon, and then I promise faithfnlly, Mag, I will go to a priest—if only to pleaae yoa !" Even as he spoke, a strange gray shadow passed over bis face, allhongh ho called oat, iu a clear, loud voice, "Help me I I am faint¬ ing—I am fainting!" Bat near as ahe was, before her hastening 'arms could reach her brotber, to lay hira gently down, ho had fall- on back upou the pillow atone dead! CHAPTER IIL It was a merchant's store—a provision store. Quantitiea of meat, in varioua stagea of preparation, lay aroand. Many meu wero actively employed about it—some making it up in large bales, while olhera were packing it into barrels or casks of various sizes.— Coarae voicea called alot;d to each other con¬ cerning the work on which they were employ¬ ed, and thore was a constant din of hammer¬ ing ; in fact, there was all the busy hum Of hurried occupation ou the making np a governmeni contract—perhaps uot the lesa marked just now, that tho master's eyes were npou them, aa he paased throagh the large concern before entering his office. He Vas a tall, handsome man, iu deep mourning, of erect bearing, and energetic, intelligent coun¬ tenance. His glance, as it passed rapidly around, seemed to take iu evorytbiug; and yet, thoagh keeu, it waa kiudly ; for the ex¬ pression of the clear blue eyo aud well-shaped mouth, at ouce firm and good-natured, told that though a quick aud not easily deceived master, he was also a considerate—uay, i*^ occaaion required it, an indulgent pue. As he next entered the outer office, whore a number of clerks were busily employed, oue of the workmen, touching his bare fore¬ head with his hand (by way of salute) passed out frora it, holding in his haud a smal^ paper; while iuside a young lad, who occu¬ pied a stool at a desk near lho door, was laughing with boyish fuu. " What has amused you ?" said the mer¬ chant, smilingly.. " Dillon, sir," said the boy, rising, "who was puzzled about a name I had to write it. down for him whilo he remembered it—Mar¬ maduke Conway." " Eh ! what!" said the merchant, quickly. " Marmaduke Conway ? W.as he any rela¬ tive ofhis f" " I believe not, air," said the boy : " ouly a lodger of his. The man is dead; the name waa to be put ou his coffin " " To be put ou his coffin! Where is Dillon? Sond him to my own oilice; I wish to apeak to him." A minute more aud the man waa standing -atill holding tho paper iu his hand—before his strangely-curious maater, who asked him quickly what he knew of thia lodger of his, Marmaduke Conway ? What aort of a man was he ? Had he any frienda ?' "Why, sir," said the man, iu his round¬ about way, " I pay rent for all the house to tho landlord, and I make as much as I cau of it myself; but though they lived in tho gar¬ ret theso three mouths, I never seen him at all until ho was dead." " Well, well," said the merchant, with slight impatience of manuer, " but you did seo him then, you say; and who wero they?—he aud his wife, I suppose ?" " No, sir; his sister. Tiiey were in great distress, indeed, 'twas woll he died ; for tbey aoon would have notbing left. She had everything pawued for their snpport, and had nothing to bnry him wheu sho seut for me thia raorniug. He died last night. I never aaw such a look in auy one'a face before. She was not crying, aa women do; but she was more ghastly-looking tbau the corpse, and her eyes looked as if they wore burning, there was auch a light like in them. But her lips were dry and cracked, and tbey were bleed¬ ing, thoagh ahe did nol aeem to know it." The lips of the strong man whitened as he listeued, aud in the gust of emotion whfch shook his whole frame, the haud lying on the desk before hJm trembled like leaf in tbe au¬ tumn wiud. "Sho said," said Dillon, "she would go away immediately aftei*the funeral; and, af¬ ler hesitating a good doal, asked me if 1 would nndertake to get him buried, ahe didu't care how poorly; and that ahe would give me everything iu hiaroom—there was nothiug in her own—for payment.. My wife holped to settle him after ho was dead, and she told me the bed waa a good oue; so I consf nted and am going now to aee about a coffin. God help her'l" added the mau, " I wouldn't like to aee oue like her agaiu. I dou't know where sho meaus to go, or what sho raeans lo do." His master raised his head, and said, " I will see to this myself. Dou't go anywhere just now; I shall want you almost immedi¬ ately." After the man withdrew, he remained for some time with his face buried iu his h^nds ; then, starting up, he drew a sheet of paper towards bim, and wrote aletter. Next, open¬ ing his cheque-hook, he filled a cheque ; aud selecting some notes from lho cash box, fiual¬ ly enclosed them all in an envelope, sealing and directing it- "He then summoned a con¬ fidential clerk, to whom, with somo directions, he gave the packet. After listening to what he said in ailent at¬ tention, the man at once left the place, in compauy with Dillon, who had been the un¬ witting cause of all theae proceedings. Half au hour afler, Margaret, breaking the seal of that aame envelope, opened the letter, and read as followa : " Maroabet :—The most trivial accideut iu the world has led me to a kuowledge of your aituation. I am aware mauy peoplo would consider it more delicate of me to reuder you aaaiatance wiihout permitting you to know from whom it came; but I waa never very clever at contrivances, and years ago, whon I first know and loved yoa, had no better way of letting you into the secret than to go frankly and tell yon so. I acted in the aame . way to your friends; yet why I was so igno- minioualy rejected remains a aecret to me to this day. Then I had a letter conveyed pri¬ vately to you. It was the ouly time I had ever departed from an open coarse of conduct, and-I was properly punished for it hyyonr silent oontempt—though I confeaa I did not expect to find you ao unbending. I apeak of theae things now merely to show you that it j is not want of delioaoy makes me aot thns my nature or praciice to deceive. Besides, there is another reason which ronderfl con¬ cealment impossible. Twn mooths back I lost my wife; did she live, it is through her I wonld commanicalH with you. She knew tho history of our briof engagoment ; yet ev¬ er kind aud gnod herself, it wonld httve given her ploasurn to be of uso to you, did yoa so permit. I felt her losa deeply—feel it still. She has loft mo throe youug ohildren—girls, too, who have no near female relative to takt* charge of them ; and indiapensable business requires my absence in Loudon an'l ou tbe continent for a yuar. My commercial alfiiirs aro nearly all arranged, but up to this time I have in vaiu sought for some one to whom I coold give my little ones in cart*; Margaret willyou reside with them while I am away, aud 80 ensure my peace of mind ? I am aware how strange the request must seem from mo lo you ; bul the world U full of changea—of changes, indeed, betweon us. I will not believe yon can refufle me this favor, therefore, I enclose (you kuow I am a hnsi¬ ness man) tbe first half year's mouey—I mean your allowance aa the children'.^ guar¬ dian ; it is only whal I would do to any uno wbo accepted the trust. I do not leave for six weeks, during which lime you can make your preparations. I do not ask to .seo yon ; do not even desireil just now. I will lot yon know the day fixed for my departnro ; it i^an be made also, thoTiay of your arrival at uiy house. Let me know your decision, if only by a single line. But iu any case, believe me your firm friend, " Georoe Anoerson." The wealthy merchant waa not uigg.trdly in his bounty—for what was it bnt bounty after'all ? The enclosed cheque was for one hundred pounda ; with fivo pounds in notes, for preaent emergenciea." She had heon told by tho clerk that every¬ thing connected with the funeral would be arranged by him—sho was to take no trouble about it. The lettor had fallon from her hand, and as sh-? aai by the bedside of her dead brother, she thought how strauge itwas that Marmaduke, who had taken so large a part iu thoir separation, ahonld have al.so been the means of bringing them together again ; for she had learued how it had occur¬ red. She thonght now there waa nothing in his letter beyond the desir • of a bereaved husband tosecuru the comfori ofhiachildreu as much as possible; perhaps also a desire lo serve au old friend in distress—nothing more. She was hurl too,poor woman; hurt as if she was atill the yonug, inexperiouced girl; at his monliou of liis wife; aud smiled bitterly at this ending to hor oarly romauuo —going as sort of paid hoad nurse to his children—the cbildren ot another woman, garet bad cast him off forever ; and then she was the mothor ofhis children, and otherwise il was impossible to be careless of ono so gentle and ao fond Tbey spoke of the sum¬ mer spent thirteen years ago, in Q , and planned many other auch eveu uow ; the busy man of the world forgetting bis enter¬ prises and his apeculations—the much-tried woman ber sufferings and dissapointments— in tb^ reijoHectious ofthe paat, and anticipa¬ tion of tuture happiness.

To "live at ease, aud uot be bound to tUink," is certaiuly a great uieaua of recov¬ ering good looks ; and speak as people will of "dross," the "yellow slave," &o., money is a great miracle-worker. It pnrcUases all tUis world's goods—tbis world's pleasures ; uay, witb it may be parebased tins world's wisdom ; for wben people become wealthy their opiuiou becomes of great value; iudeed ou this occasion it enacted tbe part of a fairy god-motber to Margaret, changing her from a miserable odd-looking creature, iuto a very elegant woman. With Uer dark Uair smoothed iuto glossy bands at eacb side of an already fuller but atill very pale face, and dressed in deep monmiug, on tbe night of her eutrauce into George Anderson's bouse sbe looked—wbat abe waa—a perfect lady. SUe entered it, re¬ solved to do her duty by Uis childreu, but witu little love for tUem in Uer Iieart; sUe was jealous of tUem—^jealous as sbe was of their dead mother iu tbe grave. She waa unused to cUildrou, too ; aud kn«w uothiug of their wilful, merry, miscbevious ways.— Neither, at first, did they like her; but by degrees tbe feeling ou botU sides wore otf, aud befnre six nioutiig tbey loved each other dearly. She was iu constant intercourse witb tbeir fatber too. In lhe note anuouuciug his departure he bad begged Uer that sUe would let Uim kuow Uow all weut on at home : aud iu time tbe formal letters and tbeir formal an¬ swers, softened iuto confideuce and afleclion. At length the year passsed orer ; the trav¬ eler was to Ue at Uome on tUe following day. Margaret Uad seeu the cUildreu iu bed, and, returning to tUe drawiug-room fire, sat by it for some time. It was Jannary agaiu. Tiie snow lay tUick ou tUe grouml; it w;us snowing even tben! TUey lived in a pretty little suburban villa, aud tbe place was very still. But in auy case she was thinking loo deeply to observe any sonnd, when tbo hurried en¬ trance of a servant ellectually aroused ber. Ue said, ** The master is come I" aud weut oU* instantly to atteud to somtftbinj; elsewbere- Sbe arose, much afiected, as a full ligure, well wrapped up, entered ; aud extending her U.-iud, said sometbing about " Mr. Conway, aud " Welcome home ;" but a moment after' kuew not bow, tUe dry snow wbicU sUe Uad Been as in a dream on Uis euat wUeu Ue came iu, waa melting on Uer black dresa, for bis arms were around Uer, audj^slie was 'wenpiug on Uis breast—weepiug tbe same glad tears wliioU sbe bad wept years ago, wben tbey parted at Q. , Ueleiviiig it waa only for a ehort time. Well, no matter for that; uow they wer^ together again ; and though there waa uo word spoken ou tbe subject, each felt lUey were to part uo more. Aud so, tbe Iirst eager deligUt over, tUey sat tognther by tUe oUeerful fire, and she lold him alt she bad snffered since ahe last saw Uim. Passing over her father's cruelty, sbe dwelt upon her mother's 1 gentleness aud afTectiou ; for Margaret loved to have Uer memory miugled with Uer joy.—, SUe told him alao of Marmadukt«'s confession dwelliug much ou his late sorrow for his de¬ ception meutioning Uis owu early dissapoiut- ment; and regretting deeply tUe awful man¬ ner of Uis deatu. TUe upright, honorable mau, though he condemned the offeuce, soou learned to speak kindly of the offender; aud Margaret, thiuk¬ ing of all things in a happier and more soft- eued spirit, felt at lengtb that sbe had iudeed forgiven bim in Uis grave. TUen Ue told ber how Ue Uad bad hasten¬ ed home, remembering her old supe:3titiou of uot liking going on, or arriving from, a journey, on a Friday. And she confessed, laughing, that ahe bad been thinking of that very thing when Ue arrived. TUey talked on of many things, he charm¬ ing away all Margaret's jealousy of bis wife, from the way in whicb he spoke of her-al¬ ways gratefully and with esteem ; but always assuring ber sbe Uad never been to Uim what she used to be, and was about to become again, telUng her how amiable she was aud fair: confessing at the same time that be had married her chiefly hecause he saw how much she loved him, and he believed Mar- beld belween The houra of 2 and 4 o'clock, P.M., on M0S114V. *\OVEMBER7tbnoxi, at the public bouse ofS.
