The Song of a Rose,
I loved a red rose in a garden;
My comrade leaned over the fence
And playfully plucked it thence?
Not so much as 'I beg your pardon 1'
There is one who goeth yet etayeth;
There is one who stays yet is tione.
You shall weep aud make your moan
On the grave of tne friend who betrayeth.
The rose that was gathered so gladly
Was dear but a little hour :
He held it at last in his power,
Nor ever the lover loved madly.
"There is heat that is colder than cold
ness;
There is ice that scorches and burns.
There's a gray-eyed womau who learns
A modesty baser than boldness.
Ab me! my poor rose to discover
Where one liad throwg it iu scorn !
Utirn/if rt/ttt/vM ^
unvti iuw nivu tie v ci a tuwiii?
Come now to thy true, true lover!
There is joy that pierceth like sorrow ;
There is sorrow that inaketh not sick.
To-day I am glad to the quick ;
I shall laugh at the pain to-morrow.
But ala? for the vision that closes!
And alas for the day and the doom!
Where have waudered thy pirfume
and bloom
O my queenliest rose of all roses?
There is light that is black as the breath
i8 |..v*
Of hell,?and a night like the day.
There's a momeut that liveth alway,
And a life that is deader than death is.

MARRIED FOR MONEY.
"Oh, dear, I wish he wonld come!"
Kate Talbort looked at her watch,
and then ran out iu the hall to com
pare its enameled hands with the pon
derous dial of the old clock in the
landing, and then she looked down
the dm shadowed perspective of the
quiet road, and took yet a second
glance, at the watch, with n im
patient sort of sigh, .
She was'a tall, handsome girl, with
bright brown hair coiled around her'
head iu a coronet fashion, that
harmonized with the royal way she
had of throwing back her slender
white throat, and the stately grace of
her every motion, ller eyefl, large
and soft, of a peculiar hazel tint, v/ere
full of dreamy languor, and tbo Dink
and white bloom of her cheeks beto
ken* d vcvy plainly that ohe bftd Dov
er turned day iuto night anct night
into day, after the improved1 fashion
of metropolitan belles. No, Kate
Talbot was a rustic beauty, fresh abd
oocoutaminated by the sinister inilu
.uces of city life.
"Hero he cooies, and he is not
alone 1"
And within just thirty seconds Miss
Toiboc was on tne Bieps 01 tuo ionic
portico inclining her head to Mr. Eose
more Wylie, and holding outan eager
flnttoring hand toward hor father.
He shook his head.
"No letter, papa?"
"None, Katy."
"Ko.sgmore'fl quick eye scanned
Kate's countenancc as she stood there,
a single rose among her dark tresses,
and one hand slightly holding togeth
er the folds of her blue cashmere
shawl, now plainly no saw ine ex
pression of keen disapjoitment that
ilitted across her perfect Greek fea
tures.
"Kate," said Mr. Talbcfc, quietly
dismounting from hie horse, "some
how it is diOicuit for me to believe in
this gay cavalier of yours.
"Papa 1"
"Out of sight, oat of mind," is a

and it is just poe*ible, among tbe at
tractions of a fashionable watering
place, that bo has forgotten tbe little
wild-flower of tbe Weldington bille."
"Never, pupa! Yon and Rossmore
always were unjustly prejudiced
against him."
Kate spoke with genuine enthusiam.
She believed in Bruce Gaynor just as
1 ? ' * ' ? * ? iL- I! J
implicitly as sue ooiicveu in tuv uquiu
gold of the sunshino at lier feet, and
it seemed impossible that any one
Ise should for a single aocond doubt
his truth and sincerity.
Rossmoro Wylie looked at her
with grave intentness. Suppose -
suppose for an instant?that Bruce
was faithless? He sternly checked
with himself the upbringing throb
of his heart.. Was it for him to build
up a palace of happiness on the wreck
of K)itn Talbot's first love?
'"He never cared for her as I do I"
was the rebellious outcry of his whole
nature.
And Rossmore Wylie roBolved to
fro to Saratoga and survey the field
for himself.
Mr. Bruce Gaj^nor was walking up
and down the broad piazza, in the
afternoon sunshine. It wan certainly
very considerate of him to give the
young ladies such a fine opportunity
of admiring hid dark eyes, rich Span
ish complexion, and exquisite figure?
"the glass of fashion and the mold of
form." Bruce felt that he was capti
vating, and completely forgot that be
had intended to devote that particu
lar afternoon to writing to Miss Tal
bot, the pretty \Veldington girl who
had made such an impression upon
him.
"Have you heard who arrived this
morning, Gaynor?"
Col. Molford's hand, laid lightly
upon Mr. Gaynor's shoulder, arrested
his sauntering movements.
"]No; any one worth cultivating?''
' Miss Montressor."
"Miss Montressor, tho heiress? e<
Why, I though she was to bo among p
the White mountains."
"She has changed her mind, appar- a;
ently; at all cents, hero she is, with o:
ninoteen trunks, and no end to the d
at boxes. There's a chance for you, T
(rang man, if you want a ric h wife." ci
Brace Gaynor's handsome eyes
sparkled.
'Introduce me."
"Can't, unfortunately; haven't the
honor of a personal acquaintance my
self; bat I can tell yoa whoTjan
'Who?"
"Wylie; he came yesterday?Ross
more Wylie, you know; he's a cousin
jr something of the golden damsel.

Bruce Gaynor Winced i little. 1
"What! that fat, d'owdy little eon- <
jern by the door? Why, I thought
jhe was a beauty." 1
<4So she is, considered from a finan- t
nal point ol view. My deftr fellow, (

Bruce Gaynor did think the matter

liort order.
"Good evening; Mr. Wylie," said he,
n honeyed accents, half an hour or
0 later, as he encountered Eossmore.

Mr. Wylie inclined his head frigid

"I understand Miss Montresaor is

"I shall be happy to oblige jog, Mr. p
raynor," feaid Eossmore, with 'the
lightest perceptible .-shrug of bis
boulders; and I presume my cousin
Smily will be gratified with the ac- h
uaintance."
So Mr. Gay nor was formally pre- t
cnted in the list as a candidate for
he smiles of Emily Monlressor.
She certainly was not handsome,
[cr hair.was tbin and rusty brown, b
er eyes didn't look botb in the same ti
ireption, and she undoubtedly wore

ered her money, and looked at ber

lade her very lovely. ,
"I do not really know what to do
bout Katy Talbot," thought Mr.
aynor to himself, uneasily twisting
p the pink envelop that had enwrap

Ltle epistle. "I was a great fool to
fow myself to get so entangled, bu.t

ke a hint of that sort.. ]?aty is very
etty, and very much in earnest;
it then Katy hasn't got the cash,

Thus cogitating, Bruce Gaynor
;hted bis cigar with the pink envel

it through the amethyst glow oi
o August twilight, wondered and
ondered, ana grew heart-sick at her
rer's strange silence.
And Roflsmore Wylie watched the

ost romantic fashion.
