I tried to be ' gentle with him, but no case of mine could alter the essence of my answer. I pointed out to him 'that I was twenty-three years of age, but-1 looked so childish that my looks belied my words.

But it seemed to be slipping from them, for my father's only sister was a soured old maid ; his oldest brother had married much be neath him ; and my father was the only one of the family who continued a friendly intercourse with him. The second brother had erred in the oppo site direction, marrying a marquise, the widow of a French noble of ancient family; she scorned the society of the parvenusj of our new world and held herself aloof to absolute exclusion. Her husband's immense . wealth, however, received considerable notice through her aristocratic and lavish use of it. After this failure the hopes cent ered in my "mother, and the sparkling little belledisappointed them byv becoming a confirmed invalid,' una-; ble even to receive the calls of familiar friends. My father, however, wor shiped her, and she lived in perfect happiness with him till I was seventeen years old. During all these years she was confined to her room and never knew that the great house she lived in had grown barn-liko through the care lessness and pillaging of servants. Her own room was a cozy little nest, and to her was all. the world. During my earlier years I was an only child. When another olive branch adorned my father's table I went to boarding-school, where I learned those accomplishments was , to be gone' three years. He, an only child and heir to a vast fortune had left all. 'Twas a nine days won der among his acquaintances, but I could understand the. nature that could not bare its pund to the hand of rpnn for treatment, but would carry it alone to its God, away from society to the wild, free winds of heaven for succor and support.

Pre 'Oh, Emile, cried mamraa, laughing I pared thus, hogs and even little pigs with a merry, almost youthful laugh, are very fond of it, and it appears to me "you are impulsive and generous as that a bushel of old corn will put more ever, but you can nanny neip nere. i nesn on nogs tnan tne same amount ox Rita has given the maid a holiday, and I new.

Next morning mamma surprised me with a little hoard of shillings which she had saved from , the fire and light money, for a Thanksgiving turkey, and desired me to go to the market and make the purchase. This I did, and on my return I beheld a gentleman on our stepsv I mounted them, with my turkey-laden basket on my arm. The stranger, turning toward me, said: "Does Mrs. Brentner then raised his hat, and with sentence unfinished, gazed at me an instant, while expres sions of amazement and bewilderment chased each other over his face; re covering himself, however, sufficiently soon to render an apology unnecessary Seeing his confusion I answered at once: "Yes, sir, mamma is at home," and ad dressed myself to the opening of the door, that he might have time to. collect his scattered senses; then I added: - "'Will you walk in? Can I take a message to mamma for you?'' He bowed,and handed me a little envelope directed to mamma. I in turn mutely showed him into the parlor and sped to mamma's room with the note. r " Oh ! such a handsome Jour staff" fellow,' mamma, such a handsome fellow," I repeated, as mamma drew forth the card bearing the name: - EairuB CabdoKt.
