In tho iscino and cafes, are now rarrly, if or. seen tho.so dainty figures, so intily dressed, all possessed of the auly of youth, and sonic rejoicing a loveliness of a nobler and rarer pc, carrying basketfuls of tho oiccst flowers, which they used to olfer with the artless 3-et graceful urtcsy of their country to passers \ .At tho cud of tho season a sum money was givcrr for these flowers, that all the ugly part of the ansaction, tho buying, and selling, as hidden from view. Tho boiujets ore given and received with smiles, id cordial words and merry farewells mtil to-morlow" wcro exchanged, id that was all. About ton 3'ears ago one of these >wer-girl? was a great favorite, and pceially admired by tbe foreigners, ig'ish, American and German, who opped to hear tho band in the UJszono Ga"duo. "Oh, annuo, look! what d pretty rl!" said Maud Haiiru;*", herself A ry pretty girl, to the lady who Was th her. They had stopped to hear e music on one warm April afleron. Maud had been leaning baclc, ed and exhausted; for she was in ry bad health, when this lovely sion of a girl of her own ago stood fore tho carriage and roused her. "She is very pretty," said Mi6s llalix j "but what is very stx-ango, she vory liko you." "Oh, aunt! how you flatter!" T* ? .

Tho flower-girl hastily threw some ises into the carriage and vanished. "I am tired ; let mo go home," said and. "Shall wo see you this evening?" lid Miss Halifax to the offieor. "I do not know. Yes, yes ; I will >me." The Halifaxes went homo. Tho young ofllcor followed the flow -girl. .She held out lior basket to >m. "I told yon," said ho, with an air of ithority, I'that you were never to go jar that carriaero." "Why ?" "Never mind; I havo my reasons, rodata." "Shall I ever know them 7" "No, perhaps not."

JIo had always been most kind .to her mother and to herself. Sho callod it kiodi noss: but. in trnMi ? . ? I. ? ? ? ;? >?>> oimcru imu devoted lovo whioh* ho felt for her. But there is often this terriblo disparity and inequality of love?on ono side fire, and on tho other frost. Tho one loves, the other is loved; and between the active and passive of that verb what a world of dilFeronco! Drodata had no father. Sho had heard ho had died when sho was an infant at Venice; and Ida Bonoli, her mother, had eomo to Florence, poor and heart-broken, to learn how to support herself and her child. No ono knew more than that fact about the pale, beautiful woman. Sho was alono with her child, and worked hard at her necdlo to support both. Sho was. however, ovwlentlv n<" birth, though she never alluded to tho past; and was as simple and unpretending as if she had always lived by tho labor of hor own liai.ds. Bui evidently there had boon a great sorrow in her life, and it was 0110 tdic never got over. Sho wf.s always sad, and somewhat Rtcrn. They lived on the ground floor oT a littlo villa near Florence, and the flowers they cultivated wero sold by Count Lin dan had been slaying at a neighboring villa, and it was during his walks ho had mot JJrodata. She used to go otlen to nee tho lady at whose villa ho was staying, and alter a few meetings he told her lie loved her. Drodata brought him to her mother, and III a I3eneli ?jave her consent to their marriage. Sho told him there was no disparity in birth between them, and that tho secret of I her lifo should he made known to him j on the day of the marriage j till then sho wished the engagement to ho a secret. .Not even Curio Malaspina, though he was so a frioud, know of it. Wow, as ho took poor Drodata homo, ho first became aware of it. It was fortunate for Lindau' that Carlo could not leave the poor girl, or the Cascine of Florence would have been disturbed by a summary act of vengeance. When they arrived at tho yilla, poor Drodata dragged herself up to her room. "Tell mamma," sho said, as the tears streamed dewn her face. Ida Beneli listened with set lips and kindling cyos. "lie shall not marry tho English girl," bho said; "her father shall know what a traitor he is." She went up stairs, kissed the poor toar-stainod cheek of her girl, and wont down Dguin. "Como with mo, Carlo," eho said. Mr. Halifax was at dinner when he was told he was wanted. f'nljo is i'?" "A lady. She says she will wait." "Who is in the drawing-room ?" "Maud is there," said Miss Ilalifax. "She said she would have tea there instead of dining with us." When Mr. Ilalifax had finished, he went to tho drawing-room. Tho lights had not been lit. lie heard his daughter's voico conversing with some one; and as his 03-03 became nceustomcd to tho gloom ho eaw a tafl, slight form loaning over her couch. j "I hear you wanted mo," he said, po litely. "Mow can' I servo madan*S*?" At that moment tho waiter earoo in, and tho light fell on Ida's lace." "Good Heaven 1" said Mr. Halifax. "Ida! Have tho waves given up tho dead ?" "Is it yon?yon?you ?" and the poor woman fell at hi? feet. "What is the matter, papa?" said Maud, sobbing. There was a good deal of confusion at first', but finally Ida was restored to her senses, and then Mr. Halifax oxplaincd, and Ida explained. lie hud married Ida Contarini at Vcnice twenty years before. A year after their marriage, just boforo the birth of her child, Ida's confossor bo filled her with fears for her own soul and that of tho child about to be boru that tho poor woman almost loBt her senses. She determined to fly, and leave no traco by which sho could bo recalled. Sho throw her veil and mautlo out of hor gondola, and, disguised in an ecclesiastical costume, loffc Vcnice. Thoro was a rnmor that she had committed suicide. .This was industriously circulated by tho priest, and poor Mr. Halifnx left Venice, miserable, and convinced that ho was a widower. Two years afterward. t.n please his sister, he mnmed a young English girl, who died in gifing birth to Muud. Ho thought there was a curse upon him, that nil he lovod should thas bo taken. He consigned Maud to bis sister, and spont years in travelling iri, Egypt, India, China, Greece, Byria ? evciy where but Italy ?until he bad beeu summoned homo on account of Maud's health.
