The lark went up to heaven, seeming to beat his breast against the ancient sky ; yet, tiny speck as he was scarcely discernable to the keenest vision his song was audi- ; ble to Lucy Hinchcliff in her mother's little gardm. Lucy was a daily governess, nnd j was in the act of plucking a rose to adorn her bosom, before she set out to enter upon the day's routine, She cast her eyes around the modest garden it was a very modest, very little garden looked up at the lark once more, icceived the last note of its sonff into ' 0 her soul, smiled ct the greyheaded mother in the pinched widow's cap who was stand- ing at the window, waved her adieu, and do- sed the small gate ;ifier her. There was not in all the suburb in which we lived a better girl, a prettier girl, a more Moving, more dutiful daughter than Lucy 'Hinchcliff She first attracted our attention ' (when we went, with satchel on our back, ' willingly enough to school. She was youn ' : ger by two years than ourselves a little ' timid thing, as we remember her. She had ' a father at that time, but wecoulJ sec that i the old gentleman was poor ; and once we were prompted to offer her some of our vie- ( tuals which wc bore in our ha?

It was only a boy's thought, nd now we nr mn.e hannv than wed id not i commit ourselves by the insult, thai if wc had realized our early dreams, those bubbles i r j --, i bred in a child's active brain. Her father died, and they became poorer.; 'O, rna'am,' was Lucy's faltering reply ; 'I A rich relation took Lucy away to bestow jam loo happy to be employed by you. I will upon her a superior cducution.
