how, as he shoo^ hia head warmlj at part-

¦ to remind him of Ihe-obligationi but to ask "for inflnence which It would cost Mm nothing

¦ promiser. Nothing could exceed the urbani¬ ty with whioh hia friend in power received him.    His manner had a blended  dignity
' and graciousneaa as he inquired after Nor- ; man's family, and expressed his pleasure at seeing him in Washington.     He listened to hia request for inilnence and aid with the same suavity as had marked the beginning of the interview;   but it   waa  impossible   to gnther from his guarded response whether there waa any room for hope    As usual, there must be some delay, but iu the interval : he gave him—an invitation to dinner.   The I dinner was faultless, the wines capital, the guests the creme de la creme of the beau ; monde ; but Norman waa  too anxious and preoccupied  to be sensible to this combina¬ tion of delights, especially as it waa tolerably ' evident by this time that this entertainment [ was intended to wipe out the old score of in- ; debtedness, and that he had nothing further 1 to expect in thia high  quarter.   It was just ; after turning over this new leaf in the study : of human nature that Norman was induced '" for the first time since his sojourn in the city to attend an evening party, in  the hope of meeting a gentleman who might be of service . to him, and who had appointed thia evening, ! and the gay crowd, as the time and place ! most convenient to discuss Norman's plane. ' He was leaning idly against the  wall of the I dancing-room, waiting his friend, and reflect- ' ing somewhat bitterly upon the mutations of I fortune, when—looking Sbwn the long line of

He had oue friend to whom he could apply for advice withoat incurring the suspicion that he sought other aid. His friend waa nearly aa poor as himself, but a man to whom age had given experience, and whose tastea as a scholar had brought him into a commu¬ nity of feeling with Norman.
recent contemplations ; but, alas! for human resolves, a party of energetic waltzera, not finding "ample space and verge enough," penetrated the corner where he atood, and forcing a way through the crowd, threw him¬ self and his companion far assunder. He was thrown off hia guard and neariy off his feet,
"Go to Washington," said he, after listen- 1 ^^^ as he sought, with what grace he could, ing to the recital of Norman's troubles, "and ' ^^ ^^sume hia position, he found himself close apply for one of the foreign   consulates   or a I t*> Edith, who, like himself, had retreated be-

' "But," said Norman, "I shrink ao from 'seeking office/ How often have we, in our talk together, endorsed the sentiment that 'attedanoe aud depeudance' were worat among life's evils? Are not both invoked in mak¬ ing these applioations?"

She started forward, uttered his name^ and half extended her hand ; but this he af¬ fected not to see—made in return a distant bow, by which he meant to convey that their acquaintance was a thing of the past—and made his way through the crowd to the place ' where he coald neither see nor hear her more.
Fate or fortune seemed determined to try : Norman's resolve to the utmost. On the next I day after his meeting with- Miss Fenton he

Congress had met; the whirl of fashionable ; life had begun; tbe ruah for office had aet iu ! with its usual vigor, and Norman found him-' self enrolled among the crowd of eager ex-' pectauts, who rise at moruing flushed with new hope, to He dowu at uight chilled by ' ¦ new disappointment.    Had Norman beeu !ese
he was condemned in his search for employ¬ ment. He sat in one of the alcoves, and did not observe a lady and gentleman who walk¬ ed several times past the entrance of the recess, looking at and talking of him aa tbey walked. The geutleman seemed to be urging his compauiou to some measure, while she blnshing and hesitating, but finally obeying the impulse of his arm, walked forward so close to where Normau sat that he could not avoid looking up in surprise at the intruders^
Vhioh NonB&n had ri9«o, while he stood at i h«r aide. Hia embarraaamenl seemed to 1 h»Te oommuuicatod itself to her. She blush¬ ed painfully as she triad in vain to think of! something to say.   At last she began:
"Where" is Lina now ? She ia soch a lazy cbrreapondeni that I have not had a letter! for a long time."
"Lina is at home with my mother," said' he, shortly.
" And Marian ?" j
"Trareling in Europe. She waa at Florr I enoe when last heard from, I believe."
"Has ahe been pleased f As mnoh ai you | Were I" she asked, timidly. I
"I have never compared her impresaloni with mine. Indeed, Marian's opinions are usually BO languidly expreaaed that it is hard to discover what she enjoya."
" I waa very sorry to hear: "
" Spare me yonr compasaion, Hiss Fenton," interrupted Norman, vehemently* " My al¬ tered fortunea have brought atifficieut mor- tifioatlon in their train without the added sting of your pity."
The flash of indignation in Edith's eyes waa soon displaced by a softer light, and in^ a moment she waa able to answer calmly :
"Youmistake me entirely. I waa abont to express my regret at hearing that Marian's health bad become ao delicate as to render travel aud change of scene necessary." Norman was fairly ashamed of himself. " Pardon me," he aaid, with some emotion. " I have been unwarrantably rude I The loss of fortune ought not to involve that spe¬ cial attribute of a geutleman, his politeness ; but if you could conceive the crowd of bitter memories which started up at your coming, you would bear^th and excuse me."
"*1 should not havepresumed," said Edith, " to allude to youj misfortunes; but aince you have spoken of them, let me say that I have heard ofyour objeot in coming to Wash¬ ington, and that I hava felt the greatest in¬ terest in your success. May I ask if you have met with auy encouragement ?"
" Nothing but ^disappointment," said he, relapsing into moodiness, " aud that in a double sense—disappointment to my hopes, and disappointment in the friends upon whom I thought I may rely."
" I wiah," said Edith, " yon would conault my father. X, at least,have thehighest opin¬ ion of his judgement, and his situation here would enable him to advise you to your real interest."
"Excuse me; but yon oau readily imagine that your father would be the laat person to whom I should Uke to be indebted."
" At leaat you will come to see ua," said she, persuasively.
" Thank you; but a renewal of our acquain¬ tance could be productive only of pain—lo me, at least. You are either utterly un¬ mindful of your own attractions, or you count too largely upou my powers of forbeirauoe. To what purpose should I risk the revival of a passion ouce so absorbing, at the very time when the indulgence of such feelinga would be madness as well as presumption ?"
"Is it not possible," .<;aid Elitb, "to forget that brief, unfortunate episode In our ViV^ay and to be friends as we weia before?'" "\'^ "To you, perhaps, in whose heart no' warmer feeling than indignation was kindled; but to me—But why speak to you of the fierce alternations of hope and despair in a lover's heart ? Your impassive nature could not comprehend, or if it could, the compre¬ hension now would be unavailing."
Miss Fenton's fatheruow appeared, aud she rose to meet bim.
"Adieu,   then," said she, extending her hand to Norman, "since you have decreed that it is uot to be.   *du  revoir.    1 wish I might in some way E<»rve you." "Thank you again, but it is impossible'" He looked at lier as her hand rested iu his for a moment   ere they parted.   She looked grave, and even soSowfnl, but there waa  no changing color or downcast eyes to betray a warmer emotion thau the friendly solicitude ahe had expressed iu her conversation ; and | the conviction that be could uot have won her heart under  auy circumstances  roused his pride to aid  in stilling the tumultuous feelings which tbe softened manner and per¬ suasive tones had set stirring in his breast. A few days after, aa Normau  was hesitat¬ ing, iu painful iudecisiou, betweeu the ex- pedieuoy of lingering  to take the chances of fresh disappointment, or of .seeking in some other scene the success which  fled  before him, he waa aurprlsed by a visit from Mr. Fenton.   This attention from a man uho, low as may hare been his  station once, was now distinguished in position,  and  whose time must necessarily   be  so   valuable   as scarcely to admit of his receiving the prof- 'fered civiltiea of others, could only be es¬ teemed an honor.   Mr.  Fenton received a pleasant surprise in the cordiality  of Nor¬ man's greeting and well bred ease of hia oon¬ versation.    He had seen him only once before in  the presence of his danghter, and on that occasion Norman's embarrassed aud haughty air had been anything but prepossessing.   He had sought him now with a sincere desire of aiding him, bnt with many misgivings lest he shonld meet with a repulse whioh would be mortifying to himself, aud which would render his good intentions unavailing.    Nor¬ man, freed   from the irritation of  Edith's presence, could see now that Mr. Fenton ex- teoded to him sympathy, but not the pity at which hia pride recoiled; that he was willing to give up au hour of his precious  time  to talk with him ou his prospects, and  that he was au adviser iu whose disintereatedness he could confide.    He  waa   encouraged  to speak of his difficultiea without reseive.
" Before I suggest auy oourse to you," said Mr, Fenton, "I must tell you that I am iu one respect iu the same situation with some of those men in whom you have been ao much deceived. - I was under very great obligations to your father.   Of these neither

One, distinguished in statiou,whoae slightest word of recommendation would have secured ! him the office ho sought—once, a poor, friend- ! lesa youth, had been relieved by his father's ¦ bounty, atrengtheued by his sympathy, and : aided by bis counsel.    He received Normani on hia first interview with marked oordialiti', ' So powerful seemed to be his recoUectioua at ! the sound of his uame tbat he drew him ont of sight of the employee^ of his bureau,  and . pressed his hand with fervor as  he recalled ' the virtues of hia-departed friend. He allnded ; In a broken voice to hia own obligation, in- ¦ quired into Norman's case, approved  of his application, and promised his inflnence.
"This appointment, however," aaid he, as aoon as he could recover from the violence of his emotion, "cannot be made at once; but in the meantime you must come tb my house
"You did not seem disposed to recognize me last night, Mr. Courtnaye ; and though I ought to repay your distant bow with a like oivilUy, I catinot resist my father;3 desire to make ynnr acquaintance. Permit me now to introduce him."
" Yes," said Mr. Feulou, " I earnestly de¬ sire to acknowledge in person the great kind¬ ness of your mother and all "yo« family to my daughter. May I not hope the pleasure ofyour acquaintance?"
Startled out of his self- possesaion, a tu¬ mult of conflicting feelings struggled for pre¬ eminence in Norman's breast. Vexation against Edith for inlradiug upon him, and against himsulf for hi.^ own embarrassment, aud a dread of again yielding himself iu blind ado¬ ration to the fascination of her smiles, were mingled with the humiliating thought that the man whom he had ever despised as an inferior now stood before him in the conscious I power of a high position, while he, fallen in | ; fortunes, was ouly a suppliant for the capri¬ cious patronage of tho great. He had never With a height¬ ened color, and haughty elevation of.the  fig-

You have lifted a weight from my heart, and I thauk you more that yon have convinoed me that snoh a thing as friendship still exists In this petrifying atmosphere. I had begun to think that it was indeed

"But," said Mr. Fentou,"do you consent to this arrangement t Yon will really be do¬ ing me a favor in consenting, for you will re¬ lieve my mind of great anxiety about this property. It is remote from my home, and has heretofore beeu rather a plague.than an advantage. I promise you, at the same timei if my offer does not suit you to do what I can to secure you the appointment."
" To convince you how highly I appreciate your couniel, I accept at once—though as I toM you before, my tastes lie the other way. I will try to become such a thorough back- woodfiman tbat my neighbors shall not have cause to complain of either my exclnsive- ness or my ultra refinement."
" Wfll, it is settled, then." aaid Mr. Fen¬ tou, with a gratified smile ; " and now, as I have still a half hour at my disposal, we will look over thia map together, and I can give you all the necessary instructions at the game time."
A few day« more and Norman turned hia back oil a city which, however attractive to the wealthy and powerful, had been to him a suppliant for government patronage, only a scene of mortification and iutense weari¬ ness. He could now meet hia mother with a .better grace, as he had the hope of repairing j^b;.ruined fortunea, aud it was with greater oheerfulnesa than he had known iu the days of his prosperity that he gave a short time to the enjoyment of her society and that of his sister before iHaviog them for his remote destination. Great was the surprise of both mother and sister when they heard that Mr. Fenton was the friend who had iuterposed to turn back the tide of adversity which had threatened to overwhelm Norman; and Lina'a lively imagination immediately aet to work to weave a touching romance, of which Edith aud her brother were the heroine and hero, with a tender father to bless their uuion, and tho happiness of married life iu some bright home iu perspective. She noticed that Nor¬ man scarcely mentioned Edith, and this she attributed to the oonaoionsness of an enga¬ ged lover. She was eager to hear from hia own lips a conflrroation of her Huspicions.
" May I not come to see you when you are fairly established at housekeeping, Normau?" "Why, are you tired here already, Lina, and only three months out ?"
" Not for a moment. I have beeu as hap¬ py as I could be wheu you were suffering; but I shall be distracted to aee you. I shall onj y the novelty of living in a log-cahlui and I shall have a great satisfaction iu super¬ intending your menage."
"You poor little nurseling of prosperity, what wonld you do in a log-cabin ? Yon would wilt up nnder the first blast."
" I suppose you think," said Lina, with a meaning look, " that none but a girl who has been bred up at the West ia fitted to encoun¬ ter the hardships of a western home ?"
"Not at all. I only know that you are not; but you may come and try. I promise that all my authority within doors ahall be delegated to you,"
"Do you know, Norman, mamma is begin* niog to be afraid you will never marry."
"Why? Does she think a daughter-in-law would be snch an acquisition?"
"No; her solioltude ia only on your account." "Aud you, Lina' are you equally anxious for me?"
"I oannot say I am, unless I might be al¬ lowed to choose your wife. Mariau, with all her brilliant environments, is no happier aince her assumption of matronly dignity. I think, ou the whole, I am decidedly in favor of a single life,"
"What a wise conclusion for a girl of sev¬ enteen! Let me recommend to you consis- rency iu future action ; and if it will please you to hear it, I fully agree with your decis¬ ion, aud will set you the example."
Lin^pas disappointed, but returned prps- •H^^y^f^*^** charge:
"Wify did uot Edith write to me ?" "She complained, I think, of your ueglect as a correspondent."

fled before It as soon as his interview with her father was over. He jrefused an inviia- i tion to drive with his frienda, and appointed the necessary meetings with Mr, Fenton at such times and places as would secure them from the intmsion of tbe ladies. He wonld thus, he hoped, keep undisturbed the tran¬ quility of his life.
It was three or four daya  before tbe lime fixed for the departure of these disturbers of bis peace, when, at the close of a sultry, day, he sat In the porch of his rtido dwelling watching the approach of a storm, an4; con¬ gratulating himaelf upon the promise  held out by the low-hanging raiu-clouds.   He did not calculate npon a more questionable grat- flcatlou which this much longed for rain was to bring.   Scarcely, had the firat dropa began to fall, and the delicious odor sent back by tha earth to arise like tho incense of pr Ise for a blessing, wheu he saw a carriage dri¬ ving with furious haste along the road which made the only approach to his dwelling.   He recognized the vehicle as rather a remarkable one, which was in constant requisiou among the strangers who visited tbe neighboring town for all drives and excursions, and whioh always announced its coming with a rattling proportionable to its Importance as the only carriage In the plaoe.   The rain fell faster aa it drew up before the door aud revealed to. Norman'a aatonisbed eyes visitors whom the claims of hospitality alone prevented  him from wishing far away.   As he started for¬ ward to open the door of the carriage, Miss Fenton's face beamed on hita amid the dingy hangings, and at the same time, he reoeived her father's hurried explanation of the inter¬ ruption to their drive by the approaching storm, and necessity of seeking shelter - in the nearest house, whioh proved to be his.— Mr, Fenton did not add that after exciting Edith's  ouriosity  by  a description  of tbe wonderful improvement in Norman's farm, he had been indulging it by a drive around the   outward enclosure,  without, however, meditating au intrusion upon its owner.- Norman saw, with some dismay, that the storm had sot in in good earnest, and promi' Bed to continue Indefinitely,  and tbat, ill- prepared as ho was for guests, he should be obliged to entertain Miss Fenton at tea.    He shrank at tbe thought of the repast whieh his only domestio  would serve np, and re¬ treated to his kitchen to Issue hia orders for the  preparation  of   lho meal.     Edith had caught the vision of.an angry face glarlog from an inner door as she firat antereti the honse; ahe beard now a reply in no gentle tones as Norman spoke, aud saw bim return flushed and embarrassed from tbe encouuter. With a woman's taot she  determined to  re¬ lieve his perplexity,  and knocking at the door through which he had just returned, asked, with a smile which mlgbfc42£V«i.pcosK- tlated a more angry deity, if she might come to the fire to dry some of her garments which had sufl'ered in the transit from the carriage to the house.    The face of the woman was a reflex of the atorm without,  aud her eye flashed with 111-repressed ang r as she poshed a seat for Edith towards the Are,    Edith was well accustomed to the defiant air of this of¬ fended goddess.    She bad lived too long at tho West not to know that tbe difficulty of obtaining servants gives to those who are to be secured an advantage over their employers which they are not slow to assert.    She knew how to conciliate her present companion.— In an easy, sociable tone she begau praising the exceeding neatness of the apartment, sympathized with the occupant 11 the trouble she must have In keeping the v rious cou- tanU of the small room in such admirable order, and expressed her sense of Mr, Cour- tenay's good fortune iu securing suoh an able housekeeper in a conntry where most per¬ sons were obliged to attend to their own wants in person.   She glanced toward her compauiou as she spoke and was glad to aee the lowering brow gradually clearing off,— Edith's sympathy and praise bad acted as an enterlng-wedge iuto ber heart, and she began in reply a recital of her variona adventures, which had terminated in ber burying beraelf with all her really uaeful talenta, ia this out- of-the-way-home;   and befora she had  got half through she aat about preparing a repast which wonld not have disgraced a mora lui- urioaa dwelling; and Edith, seeing that she was effectually modified, returned to her fath¬ er and Norman, who had beon employing the interval by a talk upon tbe matters in whicb they were  mutually Interested.   When the tea was served, Edith fully expected that the presiding genius of tbe kitchen wonld expect to sit down w tb tham at tbe table, as she knew tbat It waa a commou  condition made by domeatics in tbis region in agreeing to submit to  menial service; but against tbis difficulty Norman had long since provided.— After many conflicts and much inconvenience resulting from desertion on the part of one after another wbo had resented his resistance, he had carried his poiut and took bis meals alone.   He hesitated now to perform the du¬ ties of the tea-table, which,-howerar bhey I may be the province of a wointn, are pecull- i arly awkward In a man -,   but here Edith How 'j again relieved his perplexity, and with the ease and grace of a familiar acquaintance of¬ fered her services.    As she sat oppoaite to him at the head of tbe table, Norman thought ruefully of tbe time when he had wooed her .80 unsuccessfully to occupy tbe same posl-

"My daughter," he exclaimed, "what have
yon heen thiu^lug of ?   We ahould have heen
at home an hour ago.    How could you let mo
sleep ?"
Edith started in coufusion, and faltered out-
" Keallj, I did not notice that thfl rain bad ceased."
"But Mr. Courtnaye could not have heen so unohservant."
" Surely," aaid Norman, with a smile, "you would not have had me remind Miss Fenton ofthe faot?"
Mr. Fenton was annoyed. An uncomfor- tahle stiffness iu the limhs warned him that he had slept too long iu the damp air, and for the first time iu his life a dim conscious- uess crossed hia miud that his daughter had forgotten him in her interest In another.
"My dear," aaid he, dryly, "you are usually so solicitous for my health that I am aurprlsed that you did not wake me, I am afraid I shall suffer for thia exposure."
lidith looked on him in silent distress.— She could not bear to acknowledge even to herself that she had forgotten him.
"And your mother, too, Edith' How strangely uumindfnl you have beeu of her anxiety.    I cannot understand it."
Edith was almost in teara; but she hastened to arrange her own and her father's wrappings, and when their carriage was ready bade good night to Normau in a confusion which revived in full force the feeling which he had so often tried to smother. Edith had forgotten time, and plaoe, and her father, for him; her eyea had sunk beneath his ardent gaze ; her hand had trembled in his owu at parting. This thoaght brought such a rush of joy to his heart, and so stirred the bope whioh had long ago given place to dispain that he could have neither rest nor peace UDtil he had resolved to see Bdith ou«o more, aud to offer, a second time, the love which had endured the test of time and separation, and which, chastened now, but uot the leas fervent, might have some value iu her eyes. This time he did not resolve in vain.

CHAPTEE IV.
A beaatifal homestead in the far, far West
lay bathed in the light of parting day.   The
house  was   almost  hidden by the flowers
which in gay profusion climbed  around  the
doors aud peeped iu at the wiudows.   Lat^e
traes shaded, without hiding, their clustering
beauties, aud bejond, rising   and falling ,in
gentle undulations, fields crowned with the
wealth of au abundant harvest streached into
the distance.    Upon oue of these swelling
knolls, amid the sheaves  of grain uot yet
gathered to the garner, sat a fair matron ; two
lovely children  played around her, casting
into her lap as many of the spoils of the field
as their tiny arms woald carry, sud decking
her light drooping ringlets with delicate sprays
of the ripe wheat.    She sat  with an expec¬ tant look, aud the quick, decided tread which
sounded through tlie stubble must have been
mnsic to her ear, for her whole  face lighted
np as the steps drew near.   Two dogs bound¬ ed up the gentle ascent, and crouching at her
feet, lifted their hright, intelligent eyes aa  if
to greet a friend.    The children uttered a cry
of j'oy as a gentleman, following,  placed in
their hands his guu and well-filled game bag,!
threw himself ou the  grouud  at the lady's
aide, aud lifting his hat, bared his  brow to
the fragrant breeze. "Really,, Edith," said he, as he lifted  a
glance  of admiration to his beautiful  com¬ panion, "yon might serve as an impersonation
of Ceres.   How well those  pendant apt-ays
become you."
"Ah! I am glad you approve,    tt  waa for
your return the children decked mc."
" What a pity we cauuot have a traveling
painter to arrive at this noment.    He might
transfer you to canvas, aud add   the whole
family.    We would rival the famous group in the Vicar of Wakefield."
"Yea—thanks to your happy thought—I might figure as the goddesa Ceres, in a cos¬ tume both classical aud appropriate; but you, inglorious farmer, where should we find a suggestive dress for you ? What learned work conld you hold in your hand, like Dr. Primrose, to hand ns down to posterity f"
" Ah I you taunt me with idleness ; but my sphere is too contracted here for my tran¬ scendent abilities, I will run away from you and seek a wider field."
" Some meaning lies hid uuder your jest¬ ing words, Norman. Do not keep itfrom me. What isit ?"
"Simply that I have received the nomina¬ tion for Congress ; and, if I ohoose, there is a reasonable chance for my election. And now, shall I accept." Edith covered her eyes in earnest thought. " Pray, do uot ask me," she said, at length, ' it is impossible to tell what xay wishes are. I do not know them myself."
"Bnt you must decide. I have confidence in your judgment, aud need your counsel."
"We would leave our tranquil home for_ the heat and unrest of pnblio servioe, and the tedious round of conventionalities of a oity life." ; ', ,
"Certainly; but we wonld have exifite- meut, variety, tho oharm of iutelleotnal bbin- pauionship, the stirring inoidenta which crowd each day at the seat of government." ,

There were books hero, to be sure, lut these alone, to give evi¬ dence of a taste whioh had delighted in all tho refinements of life.

She sat with him on the porob after their pleasant meal was finished, and while her father, wearied with watching for the storm to cease, and lulled by the faU ot the rain upon the roof, slept in his chair, exerted herself to talk on snbjeots whioh would draw Norman's thoughts from painful
