And tiia Years Afterwards. BT M. L. D. "Beware, Nellie, how yon trifle where the heart is involved. Supposing oven that lilith Emerson is deeply in limit, is there no blame to bc a Hue heel io yon '! Are yon so faultless that, on his part, there is no call for forbearance. Nellie, my child, happiness is bestowed upon but iew, and even tor those who are blessed now, who can tell what the morrow may have in store? How dare yon, then, un? gratefully spam what; tho Giver has in love bestowed ?*'" '?Cousin Annie, yon do not know?3-ou could not feel ns I do. Your life has been eo calm and unruffled?your temper is so even?that you cannot feel for me now. Were it not so I would tell yon all?-tell you of the cold contempt ami haughty si lenee with which I have been treated. Cousin Annie, I could forgive, forget all frut this.*.' The speakers were together on tho bal? cony* of a building in a Southern village, well known as a summer resort for enjoy? ing the pleasures of sea-breezes and sea? bathing. It was night, but tho bright moonlight displayed well, and to no disadvantage, the calm, beautiful face ot the first speak cr. She was tall?middle-aged, perhaps, though it was hard lo say whether the years passed through had been many, or whether so fraught had they been with sorrow and suffering, that tho taint lines upon the broad brow were those imprint? ed there hy care or hy time. The large, soft black eyes now dreami? ly rested tar away across tho broad ex? panse of water, but her thoughts had wan? dered further still?back, b:telc into the past. Her bcautilul black hair was ar? ranged in ?'lossy braids* and as Nellie Landon looke?' up and wondered why that expression ot intense sadness had fallon upcu her cousin's lace, she almost fancied that the moonlight cast a halo around tho perfect head. NoJIie Landon was a fair type of the fashionable lady of nineteen, in this nine? teenth century; not unlike .Mrs. Walt hall or Cousin Annie in appearance, although .instead of the dark eyes and darker hair ?of Mrs. Walthall, Nellie's eves were of thc huo of the violer, and her hair o'.'that beautiful shade of brown, on which the sunlight ever seems to rest. Undoubtedly the belle of tho season. Nellie was not a little spoiled by ihe ad? miration and adulation received from all ; and tho little spark ot coquetry which had hitherto lain dormant in her heart had suddenly burst into a flame, threat? ening now to mar the happiness ol' more than ono besides herself; so that Airs. Walthall, under whose protection she was, deemed it best to remonstrate a lit? tle on tho evident estrangement between ber fair young relative and Hugh Emer? son, to whom she was betrothed. ??Nellie," said Airs. Walthall, in a low tone, alter many minutes ol' silence, as each watched tho breaking waves upon the beach below them, "tell me your grievance?, my dear; teil them without one fear that I-can not loci lor your suit'? r hii*8 tts you would wish me td do. J may seem calm, cold, Nellie; hut it is tho re?t which has come to me (?lily alter many Sorrows; and dead as my heart may now appear, once it was as- full of hope as yours now is." The tone, the manner, so soft and win? ning, soon drew from Nellie ti recital of her fancied wrongs?of little indications of a wandering love on thc part or Hugh; and fina!!}' a reluctant confession that all those had been shown only after many wayward acts of her own. against which Hugh had in vain protested. ?'And now, Nellie," replied. Mrs. Walt hail, when tho confession was ended, "tell me candidly and honestly, it you do tvt think this stale of things has ail bee!, brought about by your desire tn 'flirt' a little beforo resigning heart and hand ex? clusively to him to whom you have prom? ised ?it**, and tell me, too, whether in your estimation thc pleasant trifling compen? sates for thc heart aches of tho past few days." "Dear mc. Courin Annie," said Nollie, trj-ing to turn the remarks oft; lightly, "how seriously you take things't My own heart, 1 can assure you, is not at ail involved in my 'ganieof hearts ;' and when the season is over I will return to my home quite unscathed.'' "Oh, Nellie, Nellie, take care ! I have bo warned you against ail this; and you cannot tell how ii ?rioves mc to hear you so lightly speak of what may affect ail ol' your after lite. 1 know it is the custom now for young ladies to act in this ?ray ; to treal as u light matter tho plighting oi l their love; and I cannot blame you as 1 would; but if you will be patient, and listen to.a recalling of 1113- past. I will show 3-ou why I grieve so, when I koo the young and thoughtless act as you do. "I was not so old as you now are bv two years, when I gave tay heart, truly ! .ind wholly, to Eugene Henton. All waa j bright and happy before us?no cloud for months overshadowed our j- yous lives, indi before us in imagination lay years ol in told happiness and! love. What would not have dono for Eugene then? .0 doubts of Ins love?no doubts ol his efoctions ever crossed my trusting heart, ntil brought about fy some Mule inri, ante, which, ly ono calling herself 1113 icnd, were us'od as a foundation upon fiich to build a frame-work of deception ?d fraud. * "All was told so cleverly that I was ? isily deceived, and prepared to sei/.c non any tangible fact as a cause for ?owing Eugene that my heart could ?ily be freed from its fetters. "Ah me! I can look hack now and smile what I then thought so very spirited, ?or silly child that I wa?, thinking to ove a callousness, which my aching \rt so plainly told*mo did not exist. Eu?*cne often rallied me on my e<?ld a, and accused me of wavering in ny ?; but when 1 heard his loving words, I looked into the depths of his clear, test eyes, I always repented ol' my Into p'cions, and my heart returned to im .. '.fiance. I "So tilings went on for snmo weeli ami irvjninaiiy had been ins!?Heil imo ni .ns.i i !?? ; i ii no.ri. thal EugellO Wi h./. i. iliii'.il in his luve; and that to man lau mdy <me win? had oten asued }0\i h your love, was very tame and eommoi place. That married lile would only L the happier for a few flirtations previol to marriage, which would only make iii wife better appreciated. 'For you knov Annie,' said my templer in conclusioi 'that a man must love more when li knows that his wife was a treasure snugl for hy others, and hardly won hy himself "Just at this time I first met Mr. Wal hall, who was then ou a visit to his siste and soon his attentions were received b me with au encouragement, which, il wa very plain, quite elated him. To ask if had then any intention of ever inurryiu him, oran.y other than Eugene, ia quit useless. Whatever I may have said, (i deluded myself with, deep down in n>( heart was the true love still, and had then analyzed my feelings and action; my after lifo perhaps would havo bee far different. '?There waa to bo a lecture in our vi Iago by a popular lecturer, and early i tho day Eugene called to engage mo t attend wiih him. For the past few day all had been serene between us, and th evening was anticipated with* mud pleasure on my part. Eugene had promised to come carl; and take tea with us; but after waitiiij long beyond the appointed time, we f nally concluded that something had nc Cessa ri ly prevented his eomingat so en rh au hour, and that ho would probably* nov only como in limo to take me to the let ture. "Tea was taken, the hour for the lee turo arrived, and still no tidings of Eu gene. Surely. 1 thought, something vcr; serious must have detained him ; and ni] heart heit anxiously as tho minuti passed away, seeming in their tardy pro gross hke so ina ay hours. "Al last a step was heard upon tin gravel walk, but it proved to be that o Mr. Walthall. who had called to ask per mission to escort me to tho lecture. I dc dined at first; but to my great relief Eu irene came in. As he Quietly npolo<r?zet for having so long delay ed coming Cor me what a revulsion look place in my heart Whore was now the anxious tendentes: with which 1 had so dreaded some ca tas'ropho ? '?Without one word of explanation lr either gentleman,'! rose, saying 1 wouh prepare myself fdr my walk, timi left tin. room; neither gentleman knowing thal e?eli lad como on tho same errand, ami each applying my acceptance to himself. "When I cnleri'd the roora on my re turn. Mr. Waltha1! was deeply engaged in an examination of some engravings in the moat distant portion of ihe room, and did not perceive my entrance; while Eu? gene who was near the door rose, Stying as ho did so, that ho feared wc would bt late. "Thank yon;" I replied, vcr}* haughtily '?but 1 have concluded lo accept of thc escort of Mr. Walthall for the evening." "Cue surprised, searching look, a how ?Certainly?you are at liberty t<? act tit you please.' and Eugene bad turned and left mo; ami with him. Xedio, went my light and happy heart, never?never more to return. "Once dining the lecture I turned, and found fixed upon me lingen e's reproach? ful eyes?hut instead ol being softened hy the expression of suffering depict ed then', I was onlv incited to a greater degree ot levity ami gaiety. "The next morning he called. I begged to ho excused on the plea of a severe headache, and for days t hen I heard not h? ing of him.. Early in the following week, -Mr. Walthall proposed?and I accepted him; hut not. 1 mus? say. with any inion lion whatever of mnrryiui* him. ??o. J on!}* wished to rouse in Eugene a lillie joalou>y. 1 i bought him rather too cer? tain of my affections?that a little fear ol' losing my love would hut make mc dearer, and that I should soon have my lover at my feet in penitent submission. Hut 1 lillie knew Eugene Deuton's proud spirit. Business called him away fora short time, and tin his return, the first intelligence that greeted him was my engagement to Mr. Walthall?the millionaire. "Then came a note to me. Ah, how the words burnt in my heart, ile had been told, he wrote, that I had sold my sol I for weallh, without my heart he well knew; but would not withdraw his prior claim to my hand, until requested ly mo to do so. II ir* visits had not been received, timi now, us a last resource, he would re? sort to writing. "Nellie, my answer was bold and bitter ?no word ot sorrow?no excuses on my part?but deliberately 1 renounced my engagement to him. and acknowledged thal to Mr. Walthall. Still I thought that even) nally it would all be as I wished. Ol' Mr. WahhalPs feeling I had never thought?he was bul my tool ; and yet had 1 realized his position,I should have been the last to cause him ono moment's pain. I liked him, ami had unbounded respect for his many virtues, hut was too engrossed with i ;) own affairs, to give a thought to his. "Thus tiling wei i-a. and very gradu? ally it dawned upon my mind that I was spinning around my sci I a web, from which there Would be no escape. Eugene had left the village alter t he receipt of my I hean less note, and ly no word or token. ! could 1 learn aught of him, to whom my j constant ihoii<r|iis wore directed, j Once I told Mr. Wah.hall that my heart i was not wholly mine, and asked lor a re? lease; hut hu lovingly and playfully re j fused, and in my utter desolation and pride, I finally yielded lo his persuasions, and was married. j "Then came tho saddest part. Had I ' cared nothing for my husband. I could I better have horno Ibu know ledge of the great deception, bul. as I said before. I really liked him, and was truly grieved ! that i could do no moro. Occasionally I : heard of Eugene Benton, as a young man ' who was recklessly throwing awav the brilliant talents so lavishly bestowed upon him; and many were thc comment? made as to ibo cause of the suddon change in ; his disposition and ch?racier. "My married lifo was not unhappy in iiSv-Hl Mr. Wah hall's many virtues nnd great kindness rendered that i m poss bl.-; but oh, tin' memory of the past, how il haunted me! "No children blessed our union?my 1 unbounded wealth lett me no wiatt uu gratified, and much time was left at my disposal. Unfortunately for me, I then knew but little of tho suffering of the poor around me, and was quite satisfied that in the numerous subscription lists Mr. Walthall's name was always opposite a princely sum. lt had never occurred to me to do anything myself tor them, or much of my sparc limo could have been spent in alleviating the sorrows of those around mc. '?After five years of wedded life, during which lime I faithfully kept my promise. made at the altar, lo be a faithful wife, Mr. Walthall died?calmly, trustingly looking to a life hereafter ot peace and joy; and I was again tree?free, and tho possessor of all that wealth could give. My sorrow at the death of my husband was deep and sincere. My mother had died during rn}* married life; of my father 1 bad no recollection whatever, and I was left now willi no protector in the wide world?young and wealthy, and sur? rounded hy flatterers and admirers. '?Tidings of Eugene were worse and worse. Ho had become perfectly reck? less, and now. in the last stage of a rapid decline, was dragging ont his last days in poverty, wretchedness, and loneliness. His wants I could relieve by means of my wealth, and did so through the medium of a friend ; but ah, what could 1 do to prepare the soul for the horne in eternity, to which it was so rapidly hastening? But C4od was merciful, and before thc last came, words of comfort had been gladly listened to. and the weary heart longed tor everlasting rest. "One morning the clergyman who had been so faithful and untiring in his care of thc suffering invalid, called on me. and begged that if it were possible I would accompany him on a visit to Eugene Ben? ton, who had told him of our early love, and expressed a longing desire once more to see me before the days of his earthly pilgrimage should end. "Of that san' interview, Xcllie, I cannot speak. Although so changed?so wan and pale?I should have recognized any? where Eugene?he who had once been so inexpressibly dear to me, and now was dearer still. Call it infatuation or what you like, but when I again beheld him thc old love caine as strong as ever in the days of <dd ; and as I sat and listened to his words of pardon for the past, and counsel for tho future. I pledged myself that while lifo was granted 1 would over do my utmost in future to atone for the tho sin? of the past. "Had I ever received one word of ex? planation from Eugene, how easily all could have bren explained; but when eveiy attempt on his part was received ny me as it was, his proud spirit rebelled, and in thu writing of his note, he made his last attempt at an explanation. "Eugene Benton sleeps now in our vil? lage church-yard, and his soul is at rest; while i, Nellie, am patiently striving to do my duty faithfully and humbly, trust? ing tha? tho sorrows td' my lonely life, may in some measure atone for the way? wardness and rebelliousness of tho past. Can you wonder now t hal 1 tremble when I see others thoughtlessly' treading thc j: nth s which to liny cinlcd ju such bitter? ness ? "Your misunderstandings now may be slight; but remember my alter years ol' suffering in consequence of one as siigiii. If Hugh Emerson comes again to offer any expia na! ion of his conduct, he just enough at least to listen willi an un pro judiccd hearl, and if you. too. have been in faull?do nol let your pride prevent au acknowledgment," The next evening, as Mrs. Walthall was alon; on ihe same balcony, she smiled as she saw below her mi the beach. Hugh and Nellie, willi such happy faces thal she well knew?even before Nellie had given a nod ot satisfaction as she caught a glimpse of her cousin s hice?that all was a.rit should he; and. as with bowed head and hands pressed upon her aching heart, she returned thanks that she had been the instrument in tho hands of the Almighty for preventing a sin like hers, one little ray of happiness lighted up her calm and lovely face. Beautiful Pa ra ?le.?A distinguished clergyman of this eily, in his discourse ol tho tcstirrection, rehearsed the pleasing parable from Hally. The story is of a servant, who receiving a silver cup from his master, sutlers it to fall into a bottle of aquafortis, and seeing il disappear, contends in argument with a fellow-ser? vant that its recovery is impossible, till the master comes on the scene and infu? sos salt water, which precipitates the silver from the solution, and then by melting and hammering the metal, he restores il to its original shape. The celebrated Dr. Brown, of England, used this same apologue in one of his popular works, ?iud a skeptic?one ol' whoso great stumbling blocks was the resurrection?was so si ruck with its force thal he ultimately renounced his opposi? tion to the gospel, ami became a partaker of the Christian hope of immortality. This converted skeptic died, trusting in his Saviour, only six months after Dr. Brown was interred in ihe same buryiiiif ground, .'ind by a coincidence allogefher undesigned he was laid near Dr. Brown's grave?immediately at his feet.?Louis? ville Cm tier. Very Goon.?A learned professor in a New England college was accustomed to demand of students an excuse whenever (hey were dilatory at recitation. The excuse given, he invariably added : "Very well; but don't let it happen again." Ono morning a married student happening lo he behind iime,*was promptly interroga? ted as io ihe cause. .Slightly embarrassed, hu replied : "The truth is, sir, I had an addition to my family this morning, ?iud it was not convenient to bc here sooner.'' ??Very well," replied tho professor, in his quick, nervous manner, "very well; but dont let this happen again ."' ? A miserable old bachelor, who knows that the present is leap year, says: "If you meet a young lady who is not very shy, you had better be a little shy your se?f." ?
