" _ | good looking in form and feature.

But with all those good gifts ho had possessed a love of tho world < and its attractions, a kind of heartlsiancss which is not at all commendable. So far as he was capable he loved Fannie Carroll, i but there are some persons who were not; ! made to iovc deeply, devotedly, they are < favorites with the ladies and liko their j company ; they bestow their attentions , much too generally to be of meaning, ami if in any case they make a speciality the . heart has but little to do iu the choice.? I Such was I/eroy Motgsn. 'On one bright sunny, foit of May, 1 Iicroy and Fannie, with many other young ladies and gentlemen of our village, rc- j paired to the mountain adjacent to have a ' pie nic.

C., TUB Sweet seemed those paper messongers t the hearts of eaeh ; and nono but one win lores truly can imagine the thrill of jo which glowed in the br< uat of Fannie whel the much expected letter oamo from Leroy ho was coining to see her. Thousands c pleasant thoughts crowded in het mind how much uhe would enjoy herself, hoi she and Leroy would wander over thoe lofty mountains whiohhuug over her love! home, and beside which the mountain c his village was a mere hill. She calculate' how long ho would stay, she wondered i bo loved her still, surely he doee, whispn ed bor over trusting heart, his letters ar full of professions of unfailing devotion It was true, she had heard the rumor tba he was a flirt, but aho could not believe it at any rate, thought she, he may appoa so to other ladies because ho does not lov them as he does me. lieroy was on his way, and as the stag ooach travel* slowly be was long in reach ing the town in which Fannie lived. 1 tho stage coach he met with a former school mate who also resided in that town. Thci acquaintance nt school having been sorov what intimato, they were soon on as frienc ly terms as ever. On arriving in the towr the young innn invited I>eroy to go to hi house, which invitation, however, he di clined, preferring the hotel. TIih school uinto then said : ' If you will not go to m house, the yowng men have a ball in tow t j-night, L will get you a tioket and sen it to you.' This presented to him an opportunity h had not yet thoughtof and he iramediatol resolved to try Fannie's love for hiui. 1 she is at jlio ball, thought he. 1 will pre tend for a while to have forgotten her, an if she is not 1 will pay such marked atter lions to other ladies that she will certain) hoar of it. To speak the truth, Lero Morgan loved Fannie Carroll, but to such degree had his propensities for flirt in taken hold upon him that it was impossibl for him to resist the desire to coquet.? This propensity led him, when, by th casual remark of some gentleman at th hotel, he learned that Fannie would no; b it the bail, to ask the oompany of Mis Stanly, a ait tor of his schoolmate, and wh had also gone to school in his native place She accepted, and every oae remaikod th ievoted attention whieh the stranger pai< iu u?r. TSiojf usiieeu, iuejr waliiesu, '?e promenaded together, and ere the eveninj was over it was firmly believed that the; were engaged; the fact that the strange tame from the same place in which Mis 9. had for some time been at school gavi the more credence to the belief. Whit Leroy and Mine Stanly were whirling roan* in the giddy onehantment of a waits Finnic entered the room. She had not a Brat intended to go to the ball, bnt wen thinking she would look on for a fet mi nates. She had hardly entered the rooc when she saw and recognised Lcroy. 8001 after their eyes met, bat hi* was not a loo' of recognition, and bis cold, heartless gas ont an icy shaft to her heart instead 0 the warm thrill of love. Tho waits wa over and still he came not wear her ; in few inmates she left the room; late in th evening Lerov inquired for her, remarkin that he thought he had aeon her, but k we* told she left soon after eke came. Late In the evening of the Jay after hi arrival, Leroy Morgan, called upon Fannie she had hoard all day long of, ae well a having seen, the devoted attention th handeome stranger had paid to Mka Stanl and her loving heart had been woondo not lees bv his n?ffl?ot than k?

TriE PliAYfNG CHILDREN". % Mrs. Whittlesey relates a story, which will bo useful and interesting to our young readers. Rhesays: *?ln one of our Western towns, a clerI gyraan was one morning told by his wife, that a little boy, the son of a neighbor, was very sick, near to death, and asked if he ' would not go in and sec him. ?t hardly know what to do," said he. j ?"I fear my wisit would not be well 1 received." "But," rejoined the wife, ''when you w ore sick, a she it tiruc since, the mother of tho little boy sent in kindly every day to know-how yon were, and I think tbey will expect yon to come and see their son. This wan a sufficient inducement; he was soon on the way to the dwelling of sorrow.?The mother was hanging in apgnish over her precious and beautiful child, who was tossing from aide to side, in the | delirium of brain fever. The minister, ' sfle? watching him a few moment#; ta?. cd to the lady and said? <(This poor little child should be kept perfectly quiet, madam; he should not be cxeited in any manner. ' Sir," said she, "will yon offers prayer?" At first he hesitated, fearing the effect upon the child, bat on second thought, knelt at the bedside, and uttered few petitions in His name who mid, "Suffer little ehil. dren to come unto me." The moment he commenced speaking, the little sufferer; who until now seemed unconscious of bie presence, cea.ted his moans, lay stil! upon the bed. and, fixing his dark ejee upon bim, listened intently to every word. The minister rose from bis kncee, said a few words to the mother, and went borne, leaving the child in a perfectly tranquil state. Tbo next moruing, the first intelli> gence which greeted him was, that little Frank bad died daring the night. He bad becotno extremely interested, and the apparent effect of tho voice of prayer upon the dying toy bad supeisad him.
