Poor Ellen, it any thing could1 ekcite her
curiosity from herself, it ws a love secret ;
'and long might she have continued to tease
poor Agnes, w bo in vain told her she had
no affair of the kind, but frhat she already
knew, had not an unforeseen occurrence ta
ken place, which entirely drew, Ler thougbls
rom Agnes to ner own aua.irs.
The fathers of the cousins are brothers
a n& connected together in a large commer
cial business. 1 h rough the failures of sev
eral: bouses largely indebted to them, their
affairs became critical , and when news
came of the insolvency .oil a foreign house
whom they were tn some measure con
nected, their own could ncj longer bear, the
shock, and of course followed. Every
hing they possessed was freely given up to
heir creditors, who expressed ! the ibisnesT
satisfaction at their honorable cendact, and
when at length their affairs was setllebYon-
ly a small annuity remained of all the com
petency they bad but a few months before
possessed : and when they again commenc
ed business a was upon a Jar more humble
scale than formerly. f au TV
, Instead of the elesaht mansions the cous-
ins heretofore inhabited, they found them
selves in houses large enough, to' be sure,
to allow tbcm cne parlor, yet that would.
not have been thought good enough for an
yper bed-room m their late mansionsjjand
now" it was that the characier of each be-
came apparent. . I '
The mother of Agnes was rather sickly;
and !tbe changes in her circumstances did
hoi jadd mdeh to her comfort. On the con-
irary, wnen sne muna nefseiiireou.cec-of

which from constant use had become neces

demanded. On her also I would i devolve

ler having been retauired to do the smallest

It was trtie that AgnesitK all the ac-
romptishments that ate generally given to
the children bf the rich, had never been
taught any thing about domestic economy:
therefore great was the surprise and delight
of her parents, to see hovv readily she. ap
plied herself to their alteredsttualion. Nev
er before had they rightly -understood the
high character of their daughter ; for in the
height of thrii prosperity she had shrunk
from the gz of the wotld with that rJiffi

mind ; and though pcis3essed of all that

'ould never know the latest fish-

she possessed the means, continued in one
round of fasnionable dissipation.. Br the
sodden failure of her -latherv however,
jl check - tafas put upon het career; and
great was her chagrin when she found her
self living in a j house where formerly ?the
oiild have disdained to have visited an ac
tjuaitance r I was id vain that ber moth
er represented how many comforts they
might yet enjoy, if Ellen would but be con
tented, and aid her in making the best cf
what they possessed. - ; -I
Xou can adorn" ltrwttb flowers in the
iummer time, said her mother to her when
Ihe was peevishly finding fault with the
humble furnilure of the parlor; Hhen you
slill have the piano that stood in your bed
room ; to be sure it js not so grand as your
parlor one was,yet it will help us to pass
the eveniRgjpleasantly during he winter.'
I Biit who! will ever think of coming near
ins in thia otjt of the way place,'; answered
Ellen, and indeed should die of shame if
tbey rshould, with nobpdy to open the door
tor them but Hannah.' ...
Udo nbiUhiok it likelv that anv of our
fashionable acquaintances will take the
trouble to visit us ; and indeed we cannot
wiih they should,, tbe conuast of their
handsome Carriages to our small house
would be more painful than the want of a
footman. tTour chief dependence fcr com-
panyf must be upon your own resources, and
though Agnes is not as near us as Idrmerly,
yet you ra nf occasion ally pass a week with
her. 1 4 o be sure we roust not expect
her to visit us often, as she has so man du
ties to attenp to ; indeed, l:wish yon would
take a lesson from her; she has shown what
a daughter should be, for though her situa
tion pa far rijore trying than yours, yet her
mother assures me, she nas never beard a
murmur from her Hps ; on the contrary .her
cheerfulness seems to throwa light onv the
darkest and moat trying scenes they have
ever to endure.'
I Well, mbtberryori seem to admire her
greatly all a once, you did not formerly
praise ber to, when she refused to attend
some bf our parties; and I once beard you
say, sne was a singular oemg wuom no one
could understand.' !
j ljgard it in ignorance of her real disposi
tion, Ellen, but I now know her better, and
a moreove)y character I have never been
orqaainted with ; and do but follow her ex
iexample, Ejleni and light our ! humble
dwelling with smiles, and 1 think! we may
enjoy some degree of happiness.'. :
5! Ellen's mother bad a strong mind, which en-
ableq her to bear ner altered circumstances with
Jfortitu'isi she enured largely into the glittering
scenes of fashionable life but had never been
entirely drawn away by their intoxication from
her duty asja wife, and though it gave hej
