No wonder my frame grew thill no won der my pulses fluttered. Here was I, a proud they said beautiful girl, jus stepping out the rosy threshold ol my sixteenth sum mer, glowing, palpitating with the very love of life my soul unutterably glad only to meet the dew and the Sowers of the morn ing only to greet the lavish golden gifti. of the saushtne - only to bear one'trill of the sweet summer birds that piped niyeyelids open witb the first white shimmering dawn ol day : and tho:.e were the words that full on my ear. They did not know thst I was iborr.thn Ten, pled by the unusually mellow beauty of the twilight, I bad strolled over to the parsonage, first going round by Terracd Heights, to catch oue glimpse of Judge Ilouhten's beautiful garden. The sinking day letiii rne bars ol light over ttie pretty, little study floor. I bad crept iu unobserved thinking to catch my dear minister napping cr reading, but the room was empty, and turning, I was moving away as silently as I came, when I beard my name mentioned. ' What, Kstelle Eve reti,!" The tone, not the words merely struck me dill as a statue. I could not tike auother step. " Yhy !" and this was the housekeeper ' did ti t you know it? Is it possible, and you an old resident? Estelie Eeerett don't belong to them why! bless j ou, shu was left at the door." Oh ! ihe tide of anguish tlat swept over tne then! I wonder it did not strike uie dead. Sometimes a faint consciousness of that feeling avtacks me when sorrow or sur prise come suddenly, and I gasp, totter, al most fall, but it is nothing to the utter misery of those terrible words, " left at the door 1" Who then was I ? Not the child of that cherished mother not tho daughter of the man I lored as my father, almost to idola tory. Uh I tiie icy brim of the cup of sor row chilled hit lips; its drsught froze my heart 1 How 1 got borne I never knew, but I found myself iu my own beautiful little j chamber, iu a strange, yet a frenzied sileucc dumb because there was not ths strvujjtb to ail out my anguish. That night I oh I that night ! Even now I wish olten to forget it, for its reco'lectiou is the darkest spot on my life I have been face to face with ileath, since then ; I have buried those I loved, but my sorrow was as joy com pared to ibe intense aud awful agony that reigned iu my soul. 'Ihe next diy I was as white as marble. I seemed changed, soul and body. He, my father, the beautiful Mrs. Everett, my moth er, cams, both to my room, lavished cares ses upon me declared I waa ill ; but I would not tell them what 1 had heard. It seemed to me thiit if I spoke of it my heart would burst. For that day and another night I brood ed over my fearful secret. Then my bauds, my foet, my brow grew oid, and 1 thought I was djiog. I begged I lie in to aeud for my minister he came, sml, aa I requested it, they left me alone witb him. " My lamb w hy is this ? You are very ill '." b said, with alarm. " Y'rs I am dying," waa my reply, " and before the change comes, which I am sure is near, I wish to ask you if it is indeed true, that I am not the child of Mr. and Mrs. Everett." " My Ismb my poor, dear Stella," he said, tenderly, stooping down so that bis while locks touched my faco "is it this thst is killing you? How did you hear? Who has been so rude, so wantouly cruel ?'' I told him faintly whst I heard. "My suffering little daughter!" be said again in pitying accents, " let me relieve your mind at once of all iho apprehensions that must darken it. I know the whole sto ry from beginning to end ; I am aware boar tenderly my friends love you. I am sorry for your sake but far more for theirs that you have been made aware of the circum stances. Yet do not tremble so, my child. I have seen your own mother, ob ! how often. Her little hand, when fair with the dimple of childhood, and in early youtb, has often rested in mine.

The traveler, supposing biin to be some dog that bad been lost ur left behind by hia master, regarded his different movements as marks of fonduess, and as the animal was baudsotue he determined to keep him. He gave him a good supper, and on retiring to bed ho took biiu with him to his chamber, No sooner had he pulled off bis breeches than they were seized by the dog. The owner, couceiviug that the dog wautcd to play with them, took them away. The dog begau to bark at the door, which the traveler opened, under the idea that the dog wanted to go out. Couiche snatched up the breeches, and tway he flew. The traveler posted aftor him with his night cap on, and literally satis culottes. Anxiety for the fate of a purse full of gold Napoleons, of forty francs each, which was in oue of the pockets, gave redoubled ve locity to his stepa. Couiche ran full speed to bis master'! house, where the stranger arrived a few momenta afterwards, breath less and enrsged. Ha accused the dog of robbing him. " Sir,"said the master, " my dog is a very faithful creature; aud if be has run away witb your breeches, you have money iu them which does not belong to you." The traveler became still more exas perated. "Compose yourself, sir," rejoined tho other, smiling ; "without doubt there is in your purs a six livre piece, with certain marks, which you have picked up in the Doulevsrd St. Antoiue, and which I threw down with t be firm conviction that my dog would bring it back again. This is the cause of the robbery which he has commit ted upon you. The stranger's rage now yielded to aston ishment; be delivered the six-livre piece to the cwuir, and could not forbear caressing the dog which had given him so much un easiness and such au unpleasant chase.

His hearers stirred not for the hour three quarters during which ha warmly aud t times passionately enforced ou the youug j men, who bad called him to address them, the immense importance to themselves, to ! their country, aud to their race, of their obedience to the old maxim " dupe diem." He acutely distinguished between genius and talent, the two great movers and makers of revolutions and progress. Tho former was born, not to be developed. Humanity owes far more to the latter than to the form er : Hence every man almost can reuder Society a debtor to himself. Only let him patiently continue in tho good work of self coutrol, self-development, self knowledge seize while he may the great benefits of mental and moral discipline. His illustra tions from History, Aucient aud Modern, sud from Riogrspby, were apt, striking, set forth with clearness, clothed in most appro priate language, and illumined by brilliant metaphors.
