And, by the way, how did she, with her Scoteh name, come with that touch of acceut?that way of softly resting on the vowels that is u specialty of Irish women's pronuncia tion of words that they want to caress '! As he asked himself this, he looked at her more observantly, and wondered also Itow she had come by that face and that expression. jfl I In a remarkably short time the two became the most devoted friends. Bonnie Dundee was not a mere insat iable eoquetto. She was uot a heartless fool, ready and willing to pi ty fast and loose for the sukc of gaining a iittlo no toriety; but she was that oven more dan gerous thing, a woman afflicted with such a passion for pleasing that it be came a Bno art in her hands and when she was following it she could uot atny lo count the cost of fuiliugs or huoccss. It was a new sensation to her to have the right to such attentions, and admira tion aud love as Mr. Bligh luviehed upon her, and as Theo offered at a re spectful distance, on tho score of being his uncle's nephew. It was n nur. sen sation to her, and ?he enjoyed it to the fj|ftre^]ing in it a^troo does ^ftf^V ben?5 after rt loot; ir'ostj ?r in wniuiy SfanWWtef1 ft loo% Mat, The fees* %f ' its being Wrong or rOprohensible in any way to gather these roses of lovo and youth and pleasure, that were bloooung in hef path, never entered her mind. She was not falso or tickle in reality, *Bhc was only intensely ^foocU-of the ox ?aiSinent of being ffyxit tfpoft a pedestal, and being only worshiped In the sight of all men. There came a day wheu it was rovcal ed to her suldonly, so suddenly that it made her dizzy, ana then she behaved? like a woman. One morning, uncle, nephew, and Miss. Dundee met. ?Theo has been talking this morning ing of leaving us soon, before ho goes, dear, we must let him know what day he is to conic back and hail you as an nunt."?It cost Mr. Bligh more than a slight effort to mako this speech with ppparant ease, for during the last few 1 days itc had net been Hind of sight. But he succeeded iu doing so, and ouly he biuiself suspected the pain his own words gave him. .??. 'Going ! Theo going !' exclaimed Miss. Dundee, lapsing from inn into . surprised solemnity in a moment, and laying her whip with a frank caressiug gesture on Tbco's arm as she Spoke.? 'Oh, don't think of going, Theo; I can't^ spare you?we can't spare him, can we r ? Thp men's cyo met for a moment aa Mudgrj spoke, and in that moment each read that the other knew all about it. ?He knoWH I love her,' poor Theo moaned in his heart; and 'lie sees 1 know it,'Mr. Bligh thought, with not cn?l Whi? lerc ptttti: And a silence fell on them, and Itl that silence Madge saw things clearly at last. To recognize the lovo of. one man in the presence of nnothur man who has a right to feel jealous of it, is to be in a posititJu of the" greatest danger und delicacy and difficulty. Poor Madge *tlinehed^rtuyi?t foment when she found horsdlf Irl It, but the next, iri.st.1nt ?sho recovered herself, and, with the generosity of a woman, sought to put them well with one another without regard to herself. ?It was selfish of mc to say I WoUldu't spare you, for it mi st be dull for, yott horc; but the fact is, Theo has spoilt me, just us my brothers do, and I have fallen into the way of orduriug him about as I do them, forgetting he isn't a brother.' 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 after a short time, aud so ho sauntered out iniu the gurdcu, and Theo and Madge were alone. Her spirit rose with her sense of danger, as does that of all finely organi zed natures, and she turned to him bright and brave at onco, though he had grown to be very dear to her. and though she know that ho was suffering horribly on her account. 'It seems to me,' she said, 'that we're all very weak and wrong to lot a shadow sc.tie over the lust visit you'll Iihyc with u , until I.am au old m..rricd Woman, with house hold cares on my shoulders, that will crush down my love ef visits.' 'This will be my last visit with vou Miss Dundee.' 'Theo !' JShc threw such a world of re proachful tenderness into the tone in which she uttered that ono word, that the. man she addressed trembled visibly. Hi- resolve, when spoken coldly and harshly, shocked and surprised her out of the brightly prudential tone she hud Inl y ii.'ended to adopt. Why had Mr. liligh gone away, leaving them the prey of this mischievous opportunity K 'Yes ; for Heaven's sake, don't speak to me in that way. or you'll drive mc mad !' and thou he got up and went to the window ; und poor Madge saw that his face had grown very pah-, and that an expression of hopelessness had settled upon it. . .Slu: could not bear it. He had been so thoughtful for her always ? so gentle, and devoted, and sympathetic ? that she tclt as if she must comfort him, let what might come of it. 'Then,' she said agnin, with that same pathetic cadence :;; her voice, 'yon have been so kind to me always; I can't be (r to sec you so. Can't I make you hap pier, Theo V He turned round quickly and pa ugh t her hand.-, as i.c was standing near to him. 'Madge, do yon love my uncle'/' ; Palf Irightonod, ?ho drow hack from ahap, and 'I am engaged to hin;,' she stammered. 'Yes, but you have made me love you; you knew your chance, and you have used it.

The two man had no verbal explanation on leave taking, but they parted as comrades who had been wounded in the same fight might part. And then Theo found that, though existence was not embit tered to him, the savor had gone from the old pleasures. It wasd- cidedly not worth while now, he f'dt, to try and do anything good or definite; lor be could never find a woman to share his gWy or smila upon bis success, who could put Bonnie iJiiiVMP out of his mind; nfter her other women did mid would nlvttys appear to be trick id n.aV.ng others appear tnme, and pale, nnd insufficient, and well, the man who has br*on hhown upon by a stur. never ibtllS tliitl there is much warmth iu a taper. lie banished hlnipclf so effectually that he" heard no tiitiHgs from til'.' (.'base' for six mouths, atid then he vetlt tired to send his nddress to his banker) and to have letters forwarded to him; but be fore these Liters are read, a retrospec live glance at the Bonnie Dundee must bo >;iven. She bore his departure very bravely. Remember how many other interests were claiming 1 er utteution at the time, and remember the ardent, impression able, changeable nature of the girl. There was a good deal of the w man. She had the faculty of feeling intensely for the lime, and of getting over things. Is not that last characteristic the see: ot of many women keeping right, and of j many others going wrong? It brushed the bloom of the beach roughly when h< went away, lor that veiled idolatry of his had been very pleasant to her; nevurth loss she bore it bravely, and made the beat of that which remained to her. 'I am so sorry, for I was so fond of him,' she said to her lover, with that disarming frankness which women of her calibre know so wnll how to us?* And Mr. I'ligh bear ing her. did llOt wonder that Iiis nephew had bee" scorched by the fiery ordeal thrOllgll w hich he had hi en pasted. There was this about it, that it was such clean lire that even her own sox could not despise and condemn ami prophesy evil filings concerning Miss BUtidcc's warmth. Just as she lived li^l.t, and dancing, and floWofs, and sweet sound.-, so did she love to be loved: and though it fuutfc her dm r oufl, it never made her despicable. And somehow men understood tin- aid so fostered her other foibles, because ol their gladness that she was free from gl cater ones. It was only about a week before the day fixed for their marriage, that Mr. Illigh ventured to speak decisively to her . Very earnestly and uently he spoke, beseeching her to open all her heart to him, and to tell him if any other image had ever displaced his. And Mndgi listened to him thoughtful ly, and atia.jzed iier own uuioltons, uud finally answered him. 'If tie bad eoum first, I should have loved Theo dcaperatcly ; as was, 1 didn't dare let myself. You're not ?fraid are. you ?' Only for your happiness, my \hjut that Inno can't express, all one's little grudation**#| Tooling i? words?I like yon so bru?h^bu"t "rVs'tftirk to mo now without him,' she added, with a sudden passion thnt Carried her out of TlcrSelf, 'and* convinced linn that bIio could never be bis wife. /He u the younger man?and?you are right.' Ho tried lf? auy it calmly, 'but it. was an awful blow j and again, us the strength of his manhood was shaken, Madge waverce^"*Mitj|?fylbVd to comfort him. 'Let^ .things .go *m.ft?U I ?hall forget him, or grow indifferent to him ; I know myself?I shall livo it'down.' 'Kou need not, poorehild, for he loves you too.' 'Ye*, I know that,' she answered with the rooklass openness that made her what she was. After that, e^ 4i?uuh of tin; world as knew the lilighs nud FDnudocs had a fresh ;'nd delightful source of wonder ment for a time. The marriage between; the cwner of the Chile and Made was hrokc'n off. and still tl.oy were frieodly j and stil! neitilei Would liston to rmo word ngaiuct or c.'ntim'jtit on the conduct of the other. Time ivolfW tell, people said sapieotly, reserving their belief as to what time would tell to themselves. Sir mc-jths pushed, and then Theo Hligh received those letters of which mention has been made. One was 1rom Madge, and contained these words : 'Your uncle has promised to explain everything. 1 need only nay that 1 shall always be your faithful friend, Mudge Uund'te.' O^bc other was from his uncle, nud eontatucd a free forgiveness, (ibis was only implied, not coarsely volunteered,) and a full account 'Comeback and win what I have lost, and as I Invc you as my.-son, so will I love her as my daugh ter.' That was something like an invi tation from a defcu^^jo a successful toVcr! Once nn ro fate was against thing" righting themselves in the (dear and glad wuy that was made so open.

'And now you know what my next move will be,' he said, when the greet ings were over, subduing his own glad ness as much as in could, out oi respect for the sorrow by which his uncle had bought it 'What is the matter '' he added in alarm, seeing a change in the kind cordial I ee that was b< n oil him.

A Louisville (Kentucky) cdTfcstfon dont of a California pap?r tolla the fol lowing improbable story : There lived on-street, in nn unpretending establishment, surrounded by trees nod dowers, a yoting lady who was celebrated lor hef beauty end ac complishments. Sho Was a blonde, with blue eyes, white tooth, nnd n hcnvcrfly smile, had the prettiest hand and foot that ever was seen, and was tall, lithe and elegant Her wit was elegant, j pointed and sparkling, and her mind as superior as her fect, nnd her suiters were as importunate, sf not as many as Pcnclopn, like whom she was continu ally wooed and never yet won. In the midst of bor success came the war, the end of which found her fatuity impov erished and herself reduced to want for the necessaries of life. But she was still the same proud, im perious mistress of hearts as before, and she refused in quick succession the many offers of rmfrriage that were uow made to her. Sht had not thought of matri mony as a resodrce, but had other and totally different prospects in view. She proposed, in fact, to teach o school. A fellow townsman, a gentleman of wealth nnd position. dlml a bachelor, had long bto'n n silcrit Worshipper at her shrine. Ho had bodies and lands, estates in tho country, and lots in the city, stocks, interests and investments wherever they would pay, and his dri \ ate establishment on--street was simply palatial. Seeing how the case stood with bet whom he loved with his whole soul, he resolved, after many self commutilngs and mach reflection to ask tier to be his wife. 'Sir,' said she, in answer to his pro posal, 'I do Wot love you; and I cannot you. 'Think the matter over, my dear,' said he, 'and in one week trom to day give me your answer.' I'pon his return, on the day se*f she ? aid lo him : 'Sir, you have r?dnlth dud I Am poor, you live in a pilaCe*| iftnl I, as you see. in a cottage- you arc desirous of having nty hnnd, nnd I wotihl like very much to be tidt. 1 will make yd? a proposition. I will throw the dice with you-**-rov haild against a hundred thousand dol lars '. la it a bargain ?' 'It is. said he And thereupon they plodgcd to each other their words to hide the hazard : It was arranged that but throe per sons should be let into the secret: that cacti should select a friend ; nod that the two selected friends were to select a third. Miss-named the Kev. Mr. -pastor of the fashionable church on -street, as her friend; Mr.-chose the Hon. Mr.-a prominent member of the bar, as his; and these two made choice of Mr. -. an eminent profes sor ol the Modi al College, tho friend of both parties. By these gentlemen the prctiiuicnries were urranged, and the programme was this : The Doctor was to give a party at his house on a certain specified Friday eve ning at which wvre'to be present all the best peopie *?i i jOtll.HVtllo; iiiu lioil. .nr. -was to have a license in blank ready to 611 at a moment's Warning, and, was to hold Mr.-'a check for 81000,000; and the llcv.--was to be in waiting to perform the cerc.'itony, if enlicd on so to do. The dice were to be thrown in Hon. Mr.-'s study whence (he quin tette were to proceed to the party, where if ilflfB-lost they were to cele brate the wedding, and if she won, they were to mingle with tlm guests without remark. At precisely 9 o'clock ott the eveutful evening the players and their fiiencTs met in the lion Mr.-study. By agreement of the parties themselves they weft: to throw poker dice, and to cut cards for the first throw. The gen tleman cut a Queen and the lady a Jack and uow came the tug of war. lie was cool, calm and pale; she was statuesque, imperious and collected. His lips were compressed ; hers were formed into an extended are, spanning the whole mouth and completing the bow. The twain sat on opposite aides kof a small table, and the umpire stood overlooking them. Tho dice box being set bofurc hiin^ Mr. - placed his finger over the top aud with the thumb clasping the side he gaffe it a shake and threw two fours aud two duccs. Putting Saide the foUrS, he threw again, aud threw another four. Then throwing the two remaining dice, he threw two fives. He had fhrovsu there fore, a full?three fdtlra" mid two fives. Aud now cat?e" jlisfl-'s turn. It was a thrilling moment, aud the rustle of her "ilk (HesS in the stillness of that room sounded like the tree tops in the wind. She begaa. by drawing off her light glove, exposing a|l.. ml of, y.,?"-??o beauty and delicacy, on the iorc4j"KCr of which sparkled ? diamond. The0,' tak ing up the box quickly, she gave1 long shake in the air, and, turning! down upon the table, ohc threw?notl ? iug ! A t'hmd thereupon passed over her face, and the arc of her lips assumed n still more bow-liko ciirtaturo. Hut nothing dttdtito'J she at onec retook the box and thrc1 gain?this time tUrdiug up four deuces ! and the fifth cocked ! Terrible mischance 1 Miserable Inck ! Again she threw, and threw two deuces and two trays. Putting all the dice back into the boA. she had Itgffc but one other, and last throw, upon which now tested her only chance. For the first time since she sat down she spoke asking for a glass of water. Having drank a tum blerful, she sat for a moment pressing together her eye-brows between her thumb and forefinger, and then, all of a sudden, Crfc Snatchod up Ihd dice box and shook it vehemently, and threw ? three fours and two sixes, and won! And did site take the money, you ask me ? I answer most cmpltatierflly she did. Here eudeth my second lesson. IttMufifying Country Homes. Strange ideas enter the niinls of many persons when the subject of beau tifying home surroundings is mentioned in their presence. They will usually utter the far too cot-uion arid absurd re mark ttiat such ihfngs arc curtly, and U } in only tile fidli who dait afford them.

Kvcn a meadow or pasture in front or near a dwelling might add sum-thing to its general good apjiearanco.j The far too common stylo of arrange ment of country homes, is to place the mansion within a few feet of the public road, the barn a few rods in the rear, and the intervening space is filled with wood piles or necessary outbuildiugs.
