COUSIN; ELIHUT All her life long Sara Holmes had had aro jHiincc. It began'and ended with these words: When Elihu-coincs honxe." And though she was nineteen yeafs old htlho time of which I write, it seemed to her tm that burning July day, as she 'sat in her bedroom and looked out iijwy the moonlit fields, that she had been liv ing lorio or two centnricjs in. tills world, at tho very least," and all the time dreaming, golden Itl reams of Elihu, only to , find them shivered Into atoms at the last. ' , For Elihu had come. And the time' and the in:rnncr of his coming were so unlooked for and so unexpected to her as well as to every one else, that no wonder the girl sat there: in tho moonlight, saying to herself : He is here. I need never watch or wait for him :i;ain. Ia the; next chamber to mine he is sleeping that is if he can sleep. Poor Elihu." The earliest stories she could remember had been told to her by her mother, nliout "Cousin fXihii" and tho enormous fortune he had made "ilown South," at a, time when fortunes could ye t 1m; made in that unhfinpy land. She had heard tender pity upon his refined and melancholy face. ' " You hare a faco that I ought to know," he said to Iter gently. You aro your mother's child, dear SaraJ I hoped sho would bo here to meet me when I came homo at last." Sara's heart was already full, and this refer ence to her dead mothvr caused her tears to overflow. ' , . " ' Dear Cousin Elihn,'" said she, taking Ids earth.' - From' tho moment when I saw yoa come in at the farm gate, from tho moment when I knew that your fortune was! gone, and that you wero ill and alone in tho world, I havo prayed that yon might love mc.- Idon'tcnr'o where our homo Is or what it Is, so tliat wo share it together.

"I should have been glad to bring gold enough to make me welcome. But what lins happened man." Her father kissed her and cried over her, as he bid her farewell, and put a pocket book containing five hundred dollars into her band as a wedding-portion.

Elihu had never known : Iiuvv her girlish fancy went out towards him. . i And now Elihu had come home J t As Sara Holmes grew up, and developed from the tall, angular girl, into the queenly and Kelf-poost'S-sed "onug woman, the thought would some times occur,t her, as she stood liefore the niiiror l-raiilinj her dark hair, " If he should come hack, would he think, me pretty, now that Itosannii is gone?'; 'llie broad, low brow, the oval cheeks,, and dimpled chin answered her; the ln althful color, the deep, dark eyes, the blight, bewildering glance said " Yes." For . hers was now a higher lx:auty than Rosanna's ink ami white lovliness had ever been, and the treasures of her mind and heart might well have won an older ;ind wiser man to love her L long before Eliitn cnuie home. And now she dr?w a Jong breath, and set i herself to recall all the incidents of that sudden and startling return. k, vI'ea was over; the milk was strained and on tin; table way. , . -.. j Mr. Holmes said. meeVly, that it wasn't like ly Elihu would want to stay l ng. and that as he bad onco redeenred the farm, which was heavily mortgaged, with his own money, and given a deed of the place to his first wife, he didn't very well see how he could refuse him a shelter. For a time at 'least," be added, ner vously, seeing bis second wife's black eyebrows knitting themselves together in a way he 1i:m1 learned to dreod. ! j 'Grace upheld hcr"mothcr in all her denuncia tions; though Sara thought, privately, that it would have b'.'en more delicate bad she kept si lence siiicej as a darighter of Mrs. Holmes by a former mrirriage, sin; could not be supposed to have any great interest, pecuniary or otherwise, in the disposition of the homestead farm. , As for -Ben, likoj most !oys of thirteen, he wason the side1 of right against might, and he did not situ pie to sayj that, for bis part bo hop ed Cousin Elihu w that be was sure i She obeyed, and a liver of light secmel snd deidy to tlah upon her from tho .diamonds within.

And Mr. Holmes, though be w fill nd j kini ni"htly curl Ould gladly have been both grate- ,'was so tamed and worried by tin lectures hours long, that he dared not sliow the ruined man any attention. and only looked at him wistfully, now and then is if wondering when he would be gone.

The lime Is even within tho recollection of many now liv ing, when faith in tho curability of the disease Ix-came general, even among medical men. L'ihjii the dawning of the lielief that insanity was susceptible of cure, hospitals legan to be built, for thetwo-fuld purposes of custody aiid treatment; for liesides I ho difficnJlj", of taking care of lunatics at home, it was found that com parativcly few recovered. From this pcrid hospitals Ix-gan to le regarded as not only the b"st, but to niot ktsoi:s the only places for the insane. Hence an increasing i'u'Uiacd for to tho iwliticians of tha Yankee States.
