W1U uudc-r the idiadow our two liert bmt, r " With a low ncloull by dyubt Or ir." . . - In the spring of j36 1 was appoint nl Curate in StetfoM cum-iiartoii a pretty little village in the country of Hampshifebordenng on the outskirts of-the Cathedral citv of . Winchester. r ' .It was a auiet place enough. !My xxmgregation consisted mostly of far- raers and tarmer s . wives, wno came across the fields to church in their clean smock frocks t- and bright - red cloaks, as regularly as the bell began to ring, and who made the responses so frequently, that the walls of the lit tle sanctuary echoed again. One momint in August, some two months after I had begun to do duty at Stetford, a ifamily carriage 'drove up to the church door, and a party a lighting, were 'ushered into .'the", Cush ioned pew with great ceremony' by the sexton. This I saw, as I was com ing through the church-yard on my xvnv to the vestrv.faml I met him upon the threshold, eager to explain the unaccustomed apparition. 'The 'Souire's family be iust come to church, your reverence,' he said, fidgetting with the lock of the door, I only bent my hand he took the hint, and hurried round to his station in the porch, while;I went out and entered the reading desk. ' Not till the lesson was over, and choir had done singing did I think of what he, said. But as I ascended the pulpit stairs ancV ar ranged my sermons upon the cushion, I caught glimpse of a sweet, pale face in the pew beneath, and a pair of earn est blue eyes lifted towards me the very eves of which I had dreamed so long ! I started I hope God forgave that involuntary distraction, and that sudden beating of the heart I had to bow my head one moment in prayer before I could proceed properly with my solemn task. I preached, looking straight forward all tjhe while, and do ing mv mind. I hurtibly hope that I succeeded. But when I came into the church-vard after the service was o- vcr, and met the Squire a tine, hear- ty -. -English gentleman wno shook liands with me cordially and would m vo. carried me awav to dine with him. nad I not declined "on account f the three o'clock service then I confess that I tried to banish thoughts of Caro- ine Erswcll no longer,'; but gazed at ier fair face with the eyes of a rover, and listened to the low tones of her voice as I had never listened to any other. It was settled that I should dine with them the next day the 'Squire gave the invitation, and Caro line confirmed it with a glance ; tnen I held a daintily gloved little hand a moment in mine, as l ied her to tne 1 - carnage, and siic was gone. Clergy men, being only human arc apt to fall in love, and I had contrived to lose rffv heart as thoroughly in those few minntes as n 1 had been a raw scnooi hnv- jind she the most practiced flirt that ever shot Pajthian arrows from a pair of brilliant eyes. Erswcll House stood at a distance of two miles from the! village, and I walk ed over the next afternoon, as if I tread on air. The day was glorious almOst'like a September day, with a dash of autumnal ticoolness in the midst -of its summery brightness. The bed o-es were blooming oh every side. the sky was' as' blue as ' the eyes of Caroline, the birds sung as if they , would burst their little throats, , and I revelled' inthe light, the music, and Lthe flowers, like a boy. In love fqr the first time, who cannot recall tne gush of childisti happiness that never comes imt then ? We tread but on rpses drink the wine of life from n. rroblpt of the purest gold.

'My mother died soon after I was born, of consumption all our family die of it and generally very young,' she said, in a trembling voice, bending over Otto's silver collar tp hide- the moisture of her eyes. 'That was one reason why I asked my father to beg von to come here. I want? him to know you well.' . 'Why Miss Erswell ?' 'Do younot see? When I am gone '. She paused. I looked around me and my eyes grew dim. When she was gone, what would that quiet spot bo to me ? IIow could I bear the thought of losing liat could make me so happy, just as it was corning writhin my grasp : She laid her little holy orders, did my duty-for me at lthe village, and came often to visit us. asking too much here often thin white hand upon my arm. 'Mr. Stuart, am I wnen. i- oeg you 10 wmc iit-ip uncu , to be with my father as much as you can, to lead him to think of what must be, and to console him when wnen it comes to pass ?! I took her hand. She did not with draw it, though she colored. 'Miss ErsAvell Caroline, if I may call you sp before I promise, I must snv one t unr . 1 nave bad a dream for years ; yesterday, for the first time 1 ventured to hope it might be real ized. If I am thrown ofteninto your company, will it grieve you much if you leave one heart the more behind to mourn for you ?' 'I shall have one more to pray for i - in Heaven,, thai will be all,' she mur mured. 'Caroline, is there no hope of a long and happy life before you ?' ' 'None. If there had been I could not have spoken thus to you at our firs,t meeting. But when the grave lies so near' it matters little how sin cere I am. And if it will draw you nearer to mv.poor father, know that I too have had my dream ; and l recog nized you, as you seem to have known me, at the very first.' A curl of her shining, chesnut hair was blown just then across my breast, to pray, with Caroline. liius sur rounded) by the gentlest ministering, she sank quietly into the tomb. The first leaves had feng fallen the cold winds of November were blow ing around the Hampshire hills. Peo ple prophesied a winter of unusual se? verity when in the very midst of storm and gale, came a day or two like summer, with the balmy air and soft blue sky of June. On the first of these, Caroline called me to -, her sofa just after breakfast. 'Philip, is Mr. Addison coming to- 'He will be here in an hour, my darling.' 'it down here beside me, then,' amlsshe made room for me close be side her pillows, and took both my hands in hers. 'You must not be sur prised at what I am going to say I have a fancy that I shall not see the sun set Ao-hiirht. . No do not - speak above all, do not weep or I cannot ask something of you." ' - , I was quite still. j 'You remember that my father wish ed you to be really his son 'Yes.' 'I wish it too, now.' 'My Carrie !' That boon was wrung from the cold hand of Death, and yet how precious it was. ; She let me fold her in my arm3 and kiss her as I had never done before. 'Listen Philip, she said, 'in Heaven we know there is neither marrying nor civing in marriage. Such a tie as would be dear to both of us, is only for the earth and I think it would comfort you too.' 'It will at least crive me liberty to mourn for vou ODenlv, while I live 'You will speak to Mr. Addison and to my father 'At !once.'
