became the most devoted friends.
Bonnie Dundee was not a mere insat
iable coquette. Sho was not a heartless
fool, ready and willing to piny fast and
loose for the sake of gaining a little no
toriety; hut she was that even more dan
gerous thing, a woman afflicted with
such a. passion for pleasing that it be
came a fine art in her hand* and when
she wss following it she could not stay
lo count the cost of failings or succcso.
It was a new sensation to her to have
the right to such attentions, and admira

It was terribly trying work for them
all, weighted with the discoveries they
had recently made about each other.?
It became* insupportable to Mr. Bligh
after1 a short titnu, aud so ho saunterod
out , into the garden, and Theo and
Madge were nlonc.
Hor spirit rose with her sense of
danger, as docs that of all finely organi

had grown to be very dear to her, and

'Yes ; for Heaven's sake, dou't speak
to me in that way, or you'll drive me

the window ; and poor Madge saw that
his face had grown very pale, aud that
an expression of hopelessness lind settled
upon it. . She could not bear it. He

It brushed the bloom of the bench
roughly when he went away, for tlint

pleasant to her; nevertheless she bore
it bravely, und made the best of thnt
which remained to her. 'I am so Hurry,

It was only nbuut a weok before the

Fate favored him now. The steamer

for the sorrow by which his unclu had

blue eyes, white tooth, and at heaterf ly

that ever was seen, and wan tall, lithe
and elegant. Her wit was elegant,
pointed and Sparkling, and her mind as
superior as her feet, and her suiters
were as importunate, sf not as many as
Pcnclopn, like whom one waa continu
ally wooed and never yet won. In the
midst of her success came the war, the I
end Of vhich found her fatuity impov- j
erlshed and herself reduced to want for
the bteccsatfea of life.
But sho was still the same proud, im
perious mistress of h carts as before, and
sho refused in quick succession the many
ofTers of nutrriage that were uow* made
to her. Slid had not thought of matri
mony na a resource, but had other and
totally different prospects in view. She
proposed, in fact, to teach ft school.
A fellow townsman, a gentleman of
wealth and position, dtid a bachelor,
had long b'jdt a silent WDrsbipper at

'It is, said he. And thereupon they
plodged to each other their words to
bide the hazard:
It was arranged that but three per
sons should be let into the secret: that
each should select a friend ; and that
the two solccted Irictids were to select a
third. Miss-named the Rev. Mr.
-pa-stor of tho fashionable church on
-street, as her fricud; Mr.-chose
the Hon. Mr.-a prominent member
of the bar, as his; and these two made
choice (if Dr. -, an eminent profes
sor of the Medical College, tho frieud of
both parties. Ry these gentlemen the
preliminaries were arranged, and the
programme was this :
The Doctor was to give a party at his
house on a certain specified Frida j eve
ning at which werc'to be present art the
beat people of Louisville; the Hon. Mr.
--was to have a license in blank ready
to til! at a moment's Warning, and, was
to hold Mr.-s cheek for 81000,000;
and the Rev.--was to be in waiting
to perform the ceremony, if enlled on so
to do. The dice were to be thrown in
Hon. Mr.-'s study whence fhe quin
i tette wrre to proceed to the party,
where if Jlfua-lost they wore to cele
| brute the wedding, and if she won, they
were to mingle with the guests without
remark.
At precisely lJ o'olock on the evcutful
evening the pluyers and their fiieiuts
met in the Hon. Mr.-?^~'n study.
Ry agreement of the parties themselves
they were to throw poker dicc; and to
cut cards for the first throw. Tho geu
tlemau cut a Queen and the lady a Jack
and uow came the tug of War. He was
cool, calm and pale; she was statuesque,
imperious und collected. His lips were
compressed ; hers were formed into an
exteuded uro, spanning the whole mouth
and completing the bow. Tho twain
sat on opposite sides kof n small table,
and tho umpire stood overlooking tnctn.
The dice box being set bofore him,
Mr.-placed his finger over the top
nud with the thumb clasping the side he
t a rliake and threw two four* nud i

her only chance. For the first time
since she sat down she spoke asking for

thumb and forefinger, and then, all of a
