There was a certain heart sickening look About the seedy stranger as Mr. Talbot t<>ld him be was in uoed of no help in his warerooms, which caused that gentleman to look up Again from his ledger and eye tho young roan more closely. With a half audible sigh, and with an air of hopeless, utter despondency, tho objectof bis sciutiny had turned to leave the -counting room. "Slay a moment, young man ? what can .you do!" I have never been accustomed to any kind of business except that of secretary, but I possess an excellent educnlion, and sufficient energy to undertake and persevere in nny pursuit that may offer itself. There was a certain something in the young man's manner that interested tho good Mr. Talbot. So ho told him to take a seal beside him and answer a few rjues lions. The young man pleased Mr. Talbot. A mutual contidcuco rp-'inging up between ihem, tho stranger confided to tho good merchant his pressing necessities. lie was a l'ole by birth; he had been -despoiled of borne, fortune and country at one blow. lie had served as private sec reiary lor several years to an English nobleman, but a misunderstanding occurring ho -twceutbeni, ho hud como to this country, and had been here several months, but not being able to gel anything to do, ho had spent his last penny, and had not tasted food for two days. Mr. Talbot did not read him a lecture on the uncertainly of human prospects, but he put his hand into his pocket, and handing -a tolerably well-filled wallet to the stranger, bid hitn go and tnako himself first comfortable with good cheer, and then presentable with good clolbes, and then to return to the counting room; that he would tako him in bis own employ for the present, and that 4be contents of the wallet was but a part of liia salary. With an eipiession of gratitudo tho stranger left Mr. Talbot, wallet in hand. There was something in tho lustro of his large, earnest gray eyes that told tho worthy merchant ho bad not misplaced confi dence. Ildo Sternberg entered into his new occu -dation with a zeal and comprehension they -showed Mr. Talbot hud not over estimated either his moral or mentai capacity. Sternberg was employed to write nil Mr. Talbot's most confidential letters, and to keep his most private accounts; for the merchant at that time was deeply involved in several complicated speculations, all of which, if successful, wero to benefit the whole -system of commerce. After several months of unremitting laU si 1 1 1 * m>r, wic ncuemes ended in n sudden failure. After honorably satisfying the calls of creditors who were involved through the unfortunate speculations, Mr. Talbot was enabled to continue his regular business, though on 4t very much reduced scale. "A professional friend-of mine .wishes a secretary; will you accept the situation, II do? The salary is good?Jar better than anything I can offer you, for just now, alas! I can oiler you nothing. I mentioned you to tny friend, telling hiin ho could not tind one more capable and more unexceptionable in every way tlmu yourself." VI cannot Sufficiently thank you for your good opinion of mo and of your care lor -- me," replied Sternberg, warmly. "I will accept your friend's offer, whatever it may be, -on your recommendation, and I hope the .result w ill prove your good word for me not < an unjust one." Mr. liedtield, the professional gentleman, with whom Sternberg now look up bis abode, was a lawyer of much repute, practicing in the city, and dwelling in much j style a short ride in the country. "Take care of yourself, lido, my boy," j said Mr. Talbot, shaking Sternberg's extended hand and looking upon him with the : fondness of a father. t'l hope you will not forget your old I .-friends for your new ones," said Miss Talbot. ' with a pretty blush. "Father and I shall expect to see you as often as you can make it convenient to give us a call." 'Fenny Talbot's bright eyes lingered with hiiu as ho entered his new abode. They looked up from the. paper on him, day after clay, as it lay before him upon his desk. They accompanied him in nil his outgo ings and incomings; (heir light had become nit: guuung Blnr of ins iife. 1 >nt yet in Iiis numerous visits to the merchant'* house, lido preserved tlio same respectful distance of 1 behavior toward the bright Fanny that had marked his conduct from the first. Mr. Talbot was onco more prosperous, and learning wisdom from experience, he pursued'he beltten path of wealth, leaving chimeras to the uninitiated. It had grown to lxi toward the close of summer when lido Sternberg entered tbo offico of Mr. Red field one morning somewhat later than usual, and lohl him he could : no longer remain in his employ. In vain 1 Mr. UcJfield urged him lor a reason, (le would give none, tucroly saying he had tnaJg np his mind to go to South America, j In about an hour alter lido left 11>c uf- , floe, Mr. Red field was summoned hoine;his Heat daughter had been found dead in the grove of wood hy the seaside, which had ever been her fuvoiite walk.

Some of tho field la- of ll borers had seen Sternberg closely conTcrs- bam ing with (be beautiful Miss liedfield in tho " grove, and as soon as the news of her depth Aug reached thorn (for it spread like wild fire) they came forward to givo in their tcstiino- slab ny. One of tho laborers said that tho young wild lady seemed very much excited in her man- A nor and spoke angrily, and that Sternberg mot seemed to be expostulating with ber, sup- um plieating her to do something that she seem- end ed very resolute in refusing. Wer The testimony crowded in so closely ' against poor Strenberg, that a warrant was ticu i>stied to apprehend him, and so rapid had' been all the proceedings, that he was taken linn on board of a South American packet with- f?Hh in livo minutes of the time of sailing. upp ''Suspected and npim-hendcd for murder?'
