'But do you really mean it, Mr.
Brabazon ?'
Rosa Dale was.standing in the
iliuminated archway of the au
tumn woods, her bright braids of
hair pierced by one or two wan
dering sunbeams, her dimpled
e child-face-framed in, as it were, by
sprays of red-veined autumn
leaves, while her apron was full
of the glistening brown chestnuts
which she bad picked up.
John Brabazon leaned against
the tall, smooth trunk of the
bireb tree and looked at her with
6 lazy, luxurious sense of artistic
beapty entering into his mind as
he gazed.
'Of course I mean it,' said he.
'But I am only twelve years
old,' cried Rosa, linging back the
supny tendrils of hair that hung
over her forehead.
'You are exactly tvelve times
as lovely as any of the city belies
- that congregate hereabouts,' said
f Mr. Brabazon, striving to conceal
a yawn. 'And if they think I am
engagced-don't you see ?-there
will be some probability of tLeir
leaving off persecuting me.'
'Well I' said Rosa, every dimple
coming shyly out .on lip and
cheek as she stood there.
'It is to be a compact, eh ?' said
Mfr, B3rabazon.
Rosa nodded her .f4ir little bead.
'But,' she questioned, rather
dubiously, 'where is the ring ?'
'The-what ?'
'The engagement ring, Mr. Bra
bazon,' exclaimed Rosa, reproach
fully. 'Don't you know there's
always a ring in ;,b novels?
And most generally it's a dia
mond.'
'If you'll believe me,' said Mr.
Brabazon, tragically, 'I never
thought of the ring. But here's a
little opa! tha~t used to be my mo
ther's, banging on my wstch
chain. Won't that do ?'
>Rosa held out her brown finger'
while he fitted it on.
-You-you haven't kissed mue
yet!i' she said, when this ceremo
ny was complete. 'LIJovers al
ways kiss their fiances I'
Mr. Brabazon laughed.
'Come,' said he, -this is getting
serious. But here's the kiss, be
fore the rest of the chestnut party
get back. And, mind, this is to
be a profound secret between you
-and me.'
Rosa ran back home with a
vague sensation of mysterious
delight, and thought how nice
Mr. Brabazon looked, all the time
she was munching her roasted
chestnuts; an'd Mr. Brabazon
himself took advantage of the
little joke to proclaim himself an
engagwd man. .Nor is it an exag
lgeration to say that the you~ng
ladies were genuinely disappoilt
'It must be a recent thing,' said
Xate li ,tosinlg her head.
'Oh, quite recent,' acknowledg
ed Mr. Brabazon.
Love at first sight ?' asked Miss
"-no, not exactly, said Braba
zo. 'In .fact, I may say that I
hye admired tbe yong lady
i ce her infancy.'
'W bat a deligntful enigma!'
said Belle Vernon,: looking any
thing but delighted. 'But of
course, Mr. Brabazon, you'll tell
us her name ?'
'I am pledged to secrecy,' baid
the engaged man, solemnly.
And when be left the mountain
notch: i-n latt at-tumn,_ and
forgot all about the wild little
woodland sprite who climbed
trees and pelted him with chest
nuts, waded with brown, dimpled
feet in the foamy waters of the:
gleu torrent, and conducted him
so mysteriously to the barn ch4m
bers to show him her empty
birds' nests, butter.fly wings and
diamond bright pebbles, how was
he to know that she remembered
the episode under the yellow
leaved chestnut trees as a red let
ter day in her calendar ?
'He ought to write to me,' said
Rosa, gloomily, as the weeks and
months glided by, and no epistle
came. '1 do hope he isn't going
to turn out false, like the wicked
cavaliers in story books.'
And when Mr. Brabazon bought
a huge wax doll, with its minia
ture Saratoga trunk and complete
outfit of elegantly-made dresses,
at Christmas, Rosa flew into a
passion.
f4s if I were a baby!' said she.
A doll, indeed, and I twelve
years old in Ootober! I wonder
if he takes me.for a child ? W bo
ever heard of a gentleman sending.
a doll to the young lady be was
engaged to?'
'My dear Rosa,' said her mo
ther, bAlf vexed, half amused,
'what nonsense you are talking I'
'We are engaged!' said Rosa.
-See the ring !'
And she slyly pulled it out from
the bosom of her dress.
'It was only a joke,' said Mrs.
Daie.
'It was sober earnest ' flashed
out Rosa.
:My dear,' said Mrs. Dale,
'haven't you heard ? Mr. Braba
zon is to be married to Lady Hel.
en Hartford, Mrs. Pailleton's En
glish nieje, next month. The
cards are already out.'
'What ' cried Rosa, her sap
phire-blue eyes blazing, her rosy
lips apart. -To be married-and
he engaged to me!'
4nd.tben Rosa rushed away in
to the barn-chamber and hid her
self for full two hours, to sob out
the - current of her chirdish grief.
Mrs. Dale smiled and sighed.
'Who would think the child
would have attached so much im
portance to a piece of nonsense
like that ?' said she 'eaily j'mn
afraid I have. made a mistake in
allowing her to read novels. But
she was always an impetuous lit
tle creature-'
Ros wrote several harrowing
letters to Mr. .Brabaaon, eli of
wich she ~finally tore up, and
when she saw the marriage pro
claimed in the papers she gave
the big wax doll to a little girl
who, was only, eleven years and
six zinonths old.
'She won't have any associations
connected with it!' sighed Rosa.
At about that time she was
promoted t.o. a higher grade in
school, began lessons on thme gui
tar, and put her unhappy love
affair out. of her mijnd.
It could not have been more
than eight years subsequently
that the collision occurred on the
grnld canal at Venice, in which
one of the gondolas capsized and
a beautiful young American ladiy,
niece of the'United States consul,
recived an involuntary ducking.
Perhaps).he romantically dress
ed gondoliers were intoxicated;
perhaps Miss Barony bad, as they
asserted, risen hastily to point
out something, and dest.royed the
balance of the moldy, black velvet
lned t,ld convfAeyance. A all

Ipied the first flor, a marble
paved desolation of old pictures,
broken .nosed statues and orange
trees in tubs.
Of coa.rse, Mr. Brabazon sent
out his vajet to offer his services.
Of course, they carried Miss
Barony in, and laid her on a sofa
(draped with tapestry which
'omebdy said Lucretia Borgia
bad helped to embroider). and
made much of her.
'But bow ridiculous all thi. is!' I
said Miss Barony, with merriment I
gleaming in her beautiful, dark
blue eyes. -1 am a little wet, to I
be sure, but otherwise I am en
tirely unharmed. Why didn't, I
they put me in the gondola again
and send me back to my uncle's i
palazzo ?'
Mr. Brabuzon, however, was t
far too hospitable for that. His
capped and- spectacled old house- s
Veeper was ready with spiced c
drinks and great baskets of grapes
and cpke, arii he himseli was I
all politeness and chivilrous court- ti
Dsy.
Miss Barony gazed curiously
round. How angelically beauti
rul she looked, wrapped in the
violet ~velvet cloak edged with
armine, her cheeks flushed with
woftest rose, ~her eyes sparkling,
er hair banging a fringe of dark
.old over her forebesd.
'Where is Lady Helen Braba
!on " she asked, abruptly.
Mr. Brabazon winced. p
'She has been dead flor a year,' h
be said. 'I am a widower. You b
were acquainted with my late c
wife?'
'Oh, no, not at all ?' said Miss
Barony. 'Only, of course, ail the
vorld had he4rd of her. She was
A famous beauty, wasn' 4he ?'
'She was very lovely,' said the
widower.
When Miss Barony was carried s
way in a newly-summoned gon. e
Iola, whose picturesque oarsmen
were more to be relied upon than s
,han their predecessors, Mr. Bra- b
3azon asked permission to call at (
.be consulate, to inquire bow she
was, in the coarse of a day or o
wo; and Miss Barony accorded t]
he permission as a young q'ieen a
might have done.
Miss. Barony was young, bean
iful and piquant; Mr. Brabazon,
whose life had been nearly bad
gered oat of him by the caprices,
%xctious and varying temper of a
he late Lady Helen, was ebai med ti
by her sunny brilliance; and at a v
month's end he cp to Mr Bar .
)ny, the United' States uon,.ul, to b
ask permission to press his suit r
with his niece. s
Mr. Barony looked eomim-i.-ts.
'Didn't you know T ,aid he.
She in engaged.'a
'Engaged 1' repeated Mr. Bra-a
baon. his heart seeme toI turn
t.o a lump of ice within him. e

said the consul. 'But perbips V

.Miss Barony was prettier than g
ever, in ber cool muslin dress and b
pale-blue ribbons, as she sat b
aong the jessamnines and pome-c
ranates of the consulate reception c
room the next day to receive Mr.b
Brabazon. He had a speech care- 0
Eully prepared, wherein all the 0
ominatives and subjects- were d
3arefully balanced and the exact
words stationed in their exact b
places; but he forgot it all at the
air vision of her perfect loveli- b

THE WORLD'S COTTON CEN
TENNIAL EXPOSITION.
From the Planters' Journal.
Among the resnlutioi aldopted at
the Little Rock Convention of the
National Cotton Planters Association,
was one to holk.1884.a grand Ex
position dnder the auspices -of that
body. It- is to 'be call4d the World's
dotton Ce#tsnRi3i *Expositions and
will be to thow6dle-ountry the event
of the*-decade, and, so f? as.aotton
ififerests3are -con-erned,~i6eievent of
the ',6intury. Never before7iu the
history 'of the Soth 'was'a moviement
more "eethaiastically -inaugurated.
Theidea - was hailed with universal
approbation"-t its announeement, and
not a single doubter of-the feasibility
of this colossal enterprise--,bas been
found awong -the nuorou planters
and:; manufa-cturers - th'. w'hom we
have- sintie dcussedrt: - -B 'at
this early -day-a nuber:of-manUfsc
tiaters --e -igaified .tieir eagerness
to be azougiwexhibitors, -and letters
of inquiry concerning it have already
heen' receved. AlthoughcoTfon will
form the phief exhibit, yet it is pro
posed to make ita scope universal so
as to include not only everything ap:
pertaining to cotton culuire and man
facture, bu whitever improved im
plements may be necessary for.- the
most approved methods of diver
sified farming--iu fact all inven
tions, devices and fabrics that may
possibly prove of interest to the peo
ple of the South or promote their
general industries.
The resolution; of the Convention
authorizing this mammoth Exposition
provides that it shall be held at such
city as may offer the greatest induce
met, an4 it is a privilege well worth
contending for. Nearly all the lead
ing cities have had successful exposi
tions, supported only by local or
quasi-local interesoe and patronage,
and ha4ve found it profitable to invest
large sums in such enterprises; but
this proposed World's Cotton Centen
nial Exposition will comrand the
direct and united support of the en
tire cotton prodiging territory of
America. In view of the vast extent
of this territory and the commercial
itmportance of its leading staple, it is.
a self evident proposition that any
city could afford to expend ten fold
more in order to secure such an F
position than upoq quy were local
affair. So far as exhibits are con
eerned, it cannot fail to attract them
from the whole Union, aye from the
four quarters of the globe. The
fact that it is to be a Centennial Ex
position, will likewise *give it great
and wodid-wide prominence. It may
interest the public .t know that in
the year 1784 eight bales of cotton
were exported from this conntry to
England, where, upon arrival, it was
condemned as contraband, and seized,
by order of' the Privy Council, who
bald that so-large an amount of cotton
could not possibly have been raised in
America. Thus the year 1884 will
be both an agricultural 'and commer
cial Centennial in the history of cot
ton. What a contrast between the
opening~ and the closing year of this'
cotton centqry !No enterprise could
be too stupendous to 'do justice to the
celebration of such a Centennial
The whole South will be baranized
for the purpose of contributing to its
grander-indeed all the cotton.pro.
ducing countries ip the world will
doubtless participate in swelling its
attractions.
If we are fortunate in its location
and can secure men of sufficient
breadth of view to compass so gigan -
tic an undertaking, it will prove but
little, if any, less magnificent than
the National Centennial Exposition of
1876. So far as its location-'is Con
cerned, we are inclined to the belief
that New Orleans is the most eligible
site, but the claims of all competing
cities will be carefully and impartially
considered. Correspondence in this
direction will be immediately insti
tuted, and a month given to the
various cities in which to make
known what inducements they may
have to offer. The Exeeutive Comn
mittee has not yet taken action on
this point, but among the cities,that
will probably be invited ty compete
are New Orleans, St. Louis, Balti
more, Cincinnati, Louisville, Rich
mond, Memphis, Nashville, Charles
ton, - Mobile, Savannah, Montgomery
and Atlanta. h
It is proposed to raise not less tha
two and~ possibly over three mI1lions
of lr su 'anhere arense,eialaities
