ORIGINAL STORY. Walters &gyq. BY VIVIAN. Concluded. Tho curtain descended, and "Walter Rowland stood entranced. Could it bo hia little ' girl changed into this magnificent woman of the world ? "True,'Giles ever feature is hers, T could never mistake them ; but how camo she here in New York City, and t this scho?rl of fashion. It cannot lie another for a resemblance so strik ing can exist only between twin sisters. I must knotf her. Is there no one in this large assembly who can civeaclue to.licr name and home? I have it ; nnr her ontho stage was Ccrtie Saun dors, at tho close nf the exercises I will her and obtain an introduction to tliis 'air unknown." ' As you please my friend, but if you are determined-to turn a deaf ear to this delightful music, I will be obliged, if you will not prevent me fronwloing likewise, for I lean assure you that I am not in lovsjjwith this divinity of yours, though I confess 6he N a charming creature ; but just now I am more interested in Miss Hunter's beautiful Solo, and will, if you persist in this nonsense, regardless of my com fort, endeavor to push you in that ante room amongst such a crowd of girls that you will become rather unsteady about the head, and wish you had nev er seen the Hudson, and its fair occu pant." . ' consider that speech unkind in you Giles, you are always bo cross where women are concerned and in this caso X consider you cruel J but look! She is' crossing the stage again!" " Ilush Walter I Til stand it no longer.. I will leave you to this wild fancy of yours. I would never have pointed her out to' you, had I known it would have cos mo tho toss of this fine music." Walter again returned to his lady friend, 'who had not before failed to make herself entertaining but when next he was with her, despite her ef forts to attract, she found him : silent and moody: Never had Sadie looked more beautiful than on this evenimr. The tua dress she were : falling. in graceful folds aroutd bvr superb v fig ure, lier hair was arranged iri -'rnost becoming style, adorned by the simple tea rose. No diamond sparkled -on nock and arms, but both were left' in their faultless beauty to be admired. She always dressed with elegant simplicity, and on this occasion she was unrivalled. The exercises closed and; all was infusion, but Walter had not been idle during the time, and was now at 'the side of his friend, Gertrude Saun ders. ''Allow me Gertie to offer my. cor- JJ 0 c t r i). j. lie Vwifeii CfirM j . i VOL. gratulatioris on your success this even ing, you did credit to yourself and in structors, as did also another, a stran ger to me, she is passing now. Who is s he ? her face ia strikingly beauti ful." . " Why Mr. Rowlandcall it be that you do not know Sadie Grosvenor?r Half ihe men in New York City are crazy about her, and now that she has left school, her numbers of admirers will be doubled, You must know Sa die, and to -night, she is indeed a beau ty in form, and face, but her purity and goodness of heart far excel her; other charms. We are not friends in the common acceptation of the word, but there exists between us a strong true friendship. Come let me intro duce you ; this is joy indeed-" Walter is almo.t by her side, near enough to touch her dress. Too late, her little hand is placed on the arm of another and she is gone', he is quite over come. But hear Gertie's cheering words : ; 1 To-morrow she will attend a par ty at.my home, you can see her there, she is quite pleasant, and I promise you a delightful evening in her go cicty." . . " Thank you Gertie, I will be with you at the appointed time, and will with your permission bring a friend, a stranger in the city you will be pleas ed with him : a joviual, companionable fellow."! . "By all means bring him," said Gertie. With which remark they part, ed. Walter soon found Giles, and with him returned to his room. " Walter old fellow, your search vas in vain. What encouragement did your friend give you? by the way she is almost a3 lcyely as what is her name?" ' " Sadie." .v 4 Oli! j'cs, Sadie, a contraction of Sarah I've no doubt ; but what's in a name? To return to Miss Saunders, she is I think my ideal of a woman' bul you know I-never- allow myself to becorce wild about them. However, J would like to call" 4 1 " The very thing Giles, I promised her that we would be with her to-inor-irow evening. She will entertain com pany, and there she says I will meet Miss Grdsvcnor." My advice to you old fellow, is to stop building air castles or they may tumble. She may even now be the affiattced of another," said Giles. " Have a cigar?" ' ' ' After a pleasant i conversation the two retired. 1 The morning danwed bright, the sun was shining, in all its splondor, when Sadie awoke. She arose immediately regretting having slept so late.on this her first morning of perfect freedom. The first thing upon which her eyes rested was a case of some rich wood," on raising the lid she found it to con tain a set of pearls. Uncle Ralph's gift. " Dear kind uncle," knowing I was to enter society, he has given me every thing I could desire. Look at the su perb outfit just .arrived from Pari, two days since, j Can I thank him suf ficiently. In making him happy I shall bp cockented, ' These pearh will be beautiful to-night at Gertie's party. I thinlf of it now, Gertie had a stran. ger with her last night, who could it have been ? ho was so ' like I'll say it not. The image of that man is al most indelibly stamped on my heart. I must overcome it. What would mother, father and uncle Ralph say ? They shall never know it. A short time elapsed, and Sadie was in her uncle's handsome, suit of brooms;" receiving visitors r.nd making a hos tess worthy of imitation. And when the evening arrived sh was exhausted and would have rested, but feared that whelf her toilette for the evening was complete, she would be late?- She rang for her maid and in less time than usual she was ready, and with ter Un cle as escort, reached Mr. Saunders in due time, When Sidie on her uncle's arm swept regally into the room, a murmur of admiration greeted her frijnds were pressing round her, when DEVOTED TO POLITICS, LITERATURE, SCIENCE AND ART. LOTJISB PRG, N. C, AUGUST, one to relieve her of the crowd, offered his arm and found a pleasant seat hear Iho window, but other eyes had seen her as she appeared at the door of the drawing room, and followed her to her resting place, ho also moved so near that he could hear the low, soft tones of Sadie's voice, and could see the blue eyes raised with pleased interest to her companion's face, and could watch the faint smile deepen till a little dimple stole into each fair cheek of the loyely blonde. He could stand itno longer and left in search of Gertie, whom he met, at the door in company with Giles, who was thus soon, as he confidentially con fessed to Walter, ' heels over head in love.' "Why old boy," said Giles, "you are as pale as a ghost, have you been frightened? Not one word, I see the cause of it all now!. Miss Saunders will you place me under everlasting obliga gations to yourself by taking my friend and introduced him to the lady near the windo w, but with a promise that you w 11 not remain after It is over ?' "It is Sadie, certainly, Come Mr. Rowland." j "Luck attend you," said Giles, aa they mpved on. The introduc tion was over, their eyes met, Sadie's face was of marble whiteness, and the next moment, her eyes fell beneath his gaze, Walter's ; tongue was paral ysed, but he soon regained his usual composure, He talked well and bril liantly, for the young man's soul was looking out at his eyes, and j Sadie studied it as an open book; sheifound it all nobleness and truth, she had been called as beautiful as an angei and csld as snow. The beaming blue eyes melted, under his magnetic influence. Several hours passed pleas antly by, all things must end Gerties guests were all gone, Sadie the last, was handed to the carriage by Walter with an engagement for the next even ing at her own home. ; r Walter was with Sadie the next evening, and again thenexj;, until their friendship, the world said was fast ripening into love, and: Giles said he was fascinated, chained hand and foot, and he never saw a more willing slave, but both had learned' th it their heart had been each others long ago. Sadie found Waiter all that she had pictured him. and he thought her an angel, but not a word of love had been spoken. Walter mast speak, he had known her long enough to lay his 'hand and heart' at her feet. After a pleasant drive one afternoon as Walter was leaving Sadie at the door, he said he would call again that evening. He could live ia suspend no longer, he would know his fate. Had she not encouraged him, he could not believe her a coquette. If she re" fused him the future was a blank5. " Walter and Sadie were in the par lor alone, we will look at them. Sadie wears a blue silk of richest lustre, on her neck and arms gleam pearls, a fall of costly lace, gives a softness to the entire dress. At her feet pleading his cause in the most impassioned language is Waller giving her a strong, deep love that few men can give. Does Sadie receive it with scorn and indif ference. She gives him her hand and bids him rise. " My heart is yours Walter and has ever been. It is too sacred now for other eyes. All is in readiness, the bridal party have returned from the Church, the Satin, laces and flowers are thrown aside, for Sadie has changed the bridal robe for her traveling dress. Mother and Father were . vrith Sadie, but Uncle Ralph gave the bride away. Gertie was there with Giles, they had returned from their wedding tour in time to attend the nuptials! The farewells are over. Walter and lib bride are gone, but in three months they will return to take possession of their magnifieent residence. Ralph Grot venor's wedding gift. " '. :a : Exd.
