MRIA^OMSTOCKS LOVE Miss COMSTOCK tamed back in h little sewing-chair, with a sujile on h lips and the light bi a great joy her eyes. She looked as though she had risi carly that morning, aud quaffed cu j? ol* happiness so lull that, it le her nothing more to he desired. A soft colour gtowed ou herusun fy pale cheek,, and the thin, colou le.-s li^s curved, warm and rosy GI der rho happy smile of why..- ' toi you. Something had occurrc doubt,; to brighten Miss . ;.. ..... W?hd!?rfntlv--something- ' : coinffieli^ her thirty years of life 1 twenty. Pei haps the open letter had something to do with ry now arid then she took * it over, and laid it badi again, ciosei folded between her palma, neveronc relinquishing it. Nor did she change her position a some one neared her door, whistlin loudly " Not for Joe." It opened suddenly, and the whist 1er proved to be a girl, dark as yoong Indian, with great sloe-blacl eyes, and long curls to her waist, hal wave, half kink,; a beautiful loot am ankle-you could see that under th short skirt-and alithe, springy tread like that of the race which she woul< have resembled, had it not been for ; dash and swagger which she bon about her. " Halloo ! ain'tyou up early, aun t7?". This was delivered as a sarprieec exclamation, and in a clear, ringing voice. " Yes, Maddie, I am a little aheac of you this morning." And she look ed at1 the strange elf with kindly eyes. " Such news us this brings dear, makes the heart too joyous foi sleep." The girl's black eyes followed bert to the letter, andan intelligent glean Bhot into them. She went over- an? stood by her, laying one brown hand on the back ol' Miss Comstock's chair and thrusting the other into the pocket of her jaunty little jacket. " He will be here to-day, won't he, aunty ?" " Hewritis that the vessel will arrive on the twentyrsixthor twenty seventh," the lady answered bright ly", " and to-day isthe twenty-seventh, so I shall hope for him till night. He will come direct here. Just think, Maddie, I haven't seen him for ten weary years." She grasped the thin hand rest ing on her chair, as though sue would compel its owner's sympathy. The girl's face caught the reflex of her joyous spirit. " I know just how happy you must feel, aunty." A momentary scanning of the face before li T, with great, curious eyes, and then she spoke again, in an ab rupt fashion of hers, careless of wounding. " Ten years ! Mv goodness, what a long tim?! -I shodK'thi?i'.t'-youiwbuld have forgot ten till ?iii..ut fach- other. Would you (chow him if you should meet him in the street, do you think ?" " Know him !" . A tkottHaud emotions V^re centred in those two words, every on?- of them borne down with the weight of the love that had grown with her growth, until it filled her very being-the one thing of her life around which every hope gathered. " Maddie, no one ever forgets a face like his." And she looked fondly at a por trait on the wall opposite to her. The black eyes turned upon it, too, and studied it a moment silently. " No I aunty, you could not forget it. Any one would worship a face like that." Something in thc earnest tonea re called Miss.Gomstoc'k to herself. " Po hear the child talk ! Any. ope would thing she, was' in love herself What do you know of nuch things ?" She gave .the small chin a playful pinch, and blushed a little at the compliment, as though itoijere di rected - to herself. ' '' j M Sure enough ! what could tbai f ?. iv ,r> .vtrH motherless girl, who had passed ten years of her .life with a.i brutish,/be sotted father, amid? . ignorance ? and vice, her best andr only associated children early learning to follow in 'footsteps of parents as dissolute as her own-what could such a, poor. Heaven-forsaken creature, know-< " the divine sentiment of love ? Miss Comstock had no'such thought, however, when she propounded lier simple question. That time was a thing of the past to shudder over Once in a while, it is | true," but otherwise^to^put as faraway aspossible. . Maria Cob8t?c^'had '-tried to do that ever since the Hour wljen thje( miserable father's death had' left the little starveling without a protector and she, in the benevolence of her heart, had adopted the child as ber own.' A That was five years ago, aud she was then ten ; bat Miss Comstock took no ?ote of time that seemed to have added neither stature nor weight to that slight figure. So the chili of her adoption had ever remained a. child to her j. and she petted and caressed to her heart's content the small creature that some how always reminded her of a mis chievous monkey. Walter Manning that day set:: foot, on his-native shore for the first time in ten years, and hurried with eager step and bounding heart to the home of his betrothed-the woman'who had .worn out her youth and freshness iaia weary Waiting, But Walter* as he held her strain ed to his heart, felt only that he. saw again the beautiful and gentle girl he had wooed in youth's spring time. As the days went on, and the ex citement of his coming gradually wore away, Wal ter no ticed what he had failed to perceive at -their first meeting-that the girl he loved could not stay a girl for ever.^ " "The.ten.years had left; their trace upon her, robbing her form of much ot its" roundness, and drawing a little line here and there on the face that had lost-the peachy bloom of youth. She seemed so staid and sober, too -so different from the merry, laugh ing maiden he remembered. He grew angry at himself for feel- j ing so much younger than she did, and then looked round to find some thing to vent his ill-hamour upon. There being nothing better at hand, he seized upon the girl he found sb comfortably, domesticated in the fami ly of his^betr?tnod.

Jul ' . . . . : .* ' p-y-smusMig O?fUC? ui iv ?.ultu , and, UlUll iied by her fondness for herself, she 'iidulged her in a way .that Walter inwardly pronounced disgusting. He told her one-evening, half-say agely, that it made her look like an old woman to be having that great girl about calling her " Aunty." His words hurt her, but not more than the sneering tone in which they were spoken. It was not the first time she had been both pained and surprised by a something in his manner that had chilled her. But she said nothing-only breath ed a little sigh to herself; and Wal ter, who heard it, called himself a brute for not loving better euch a treasure. But, even while acknowledging to himself how very much too good she was for him, he realised, with a paug, that they were unsuited to each oth er, and were growing farther apart each day. Miss Comstock did not relax her tenderness towards her adopted child, but she never again caressed her in Walter Manning's presence. Now. that she no longer brought the little interloper, as he always re garded her, forward to his notice, by one of those strange inconsistencies peculiar to man's nature, he began to look with interest upon the girl whom he had so causelessly disliked. Knowing that he had been wholly in the wrong, he tried to make amends tor his rudeness. He saw what Miss Comstock did not, that, though little more than a child in years and stat ure, Madge Winters was a woman in heart and feeling. That young lady met all his ad vances-and Walter Manning had a most winning way when he chose to exert it-with a pert, nc-vou-don't air, and a mocking light in her black eyes, that showed him, notwithstand ing his efforts, he was making no headway in her good graces. She was like a prickly burr, turn which ever way he might, he always met with a rough side. It grew interesting after ? while this striving to win over the wilful, capricious girl ; and, half-piqued at his failure, ne took to patching her, to discover whether her indifference was real or feigned. She was a strange, ' bewildering study, and consequently a dangerous oue? How dangerous he little guessed, till accident revealed it. Walter called, pp w Miss Comstock one evening about twilight, and found her absent from home. Itv was ' an unusu?l hour for him, btrt'-bu?lness brought bim in the neighborhood. Madge had gone out with hej, the housemaid told him; so he walked into the parlour and waited their re turn. A iistle while after- he heard the click of a night-key, and the voices of Miss Comstock and Madge in the hall. f ; f>, I One of them ran- lightly up the stairs, and the other came towards the parlour door, He WAS seated near it, and some impufrsprompted him to spring up and secrete himself behind it.

There was a momemn. of hushed waiting, in which the soulof Mauning was shaken in a struggle between love and duty. But, in the face of th t solemn in junction he dared not falter; and with one appealing lok into the white set face, he inutey held out his arms to the tremblin; girl at- his side. She flew to him, and buried her head, with ils jetty 'eil of curls, upon his breast. Neither dared to lookat the wo man they had wronged.

Thfe1 ! mut'r?age, it- ?ef . alleged", was never consummated. Andithere by hangs a tale. The parties are both young, high spirited, of South ern1 blood and birth, and one is beau tiful. They were residents of the city of Mobile, and moved in circles of the highest, respectability. An intimacy sprang up between them, which continued for a year and a "half, when the young lady discovered that, matters had proceeded too -far. Th?'lover apprehending violence at the hands of her relatives, Eold out his business and came to St, Louis. Here lie opened a store, anil, is still thriving. > Lasn Summer, while walking down Lucas Place in company with a Cou ple of friends, he was met by a lady who was deeply veiled. He tlid itojt'l recognize her until she raised her veil, and then he waa startled.to find his Julia standing before him. She demanded an interview, and they took a ride to Lafayette Park. There, seated under the statue of Beuton, under the shadow of green boughs, they talked over the pleasant hours, they had passed together in their Toutheru home. The feelings of both had undergone a 'change, and but little of the love was left. Tne ob ject of her visit was to obtain repar ation for the wrong she has suffered. She gave him to understand, in un mistakable terms, that unless he made her his wife within twenty? four hours, he would be a dead man. She had come for this sole purpose, and was determined to accomplish her object. She did not care to live with him, and agreed . to return to Mobile immediately after the perfor mance of the ceremony.- She had. learned of the whereabouts of her whilom lover, and obtaining a letter of introduction from Father Hyan, the poet, to Bishop Byan, had follow ed him to thia city. There was res olution in her eye and in her voice as she spoke and the young man knew the. oonsequences of a refusal. He consented. The twain went to the residence of Bishop Ryan, and the ceremony was performed without rtelay. The bride then departed at nnrt? fnr Mnru'li?..anrl hflS_nfiV?r RUICA-L? -..-r IrtriC.
