ONE WOMAN'S TREACHERY. A ?TOBY OF A WII?SI EH. CH A PTE B II. lt used to bc tbe farhiou In novel? of tho Rosa Matilda school to represent young governesses as beings of incompar able beauty^ safo to cause havoc in the heart of the uousovs eldest soo and heir, and trouble to everybody else in como queuce. ITow this bad absolutely hap pened ia the case of Dorothy Stevens although she could not boast of much beauty, save in ber fine golden hair and ?weet blue eyes, and, it may be, in an in nocent, coufiding expression of counte nance. Upon leaving school a situation had been found for her n. the bout e of Mr*. Calloway-a rigid gentlewoman who boasted of high descent; to conduct the education of ber only daughter. There wns an only son, as weil, much older i twenty-one, in fact; and ho fell forth with in love with the governess's pretty oyen and hair, after tho alleged customs of those half-fledged younger*. For a long while Mrs. Calloway suspected not thc treason batching in her son's heart; nnd she, confiding woman, continued to have Miss Steven? down to the drawing room whenever she received evening guests ; for the young lady, don't you see. was useful in the matter of playing and singing. Now and then Dorothy went out with them also; always when the duughter went. It was in these social evening gatherings -hat Mr. Hasting? had seen uer and learnt to love ; and she, poor girl, bad no notion that anybody vine did. Young Mr. Calloway, who was i?f a hnutifnl, nervous temperament, kept bis sentiments to himself, and did not anmoy Dora ; she only used to wonder wliy tie stared at her so, and wished he would not. Rut one unlucky day he came to tho desperate resolution of de claring his love, and penned a letter de ncribirigit. Hy come awkward mischance it fell into the possession of Mrs. Callo way instead of that of the governess, and n fine hubub it caused. Dora, with earn est words and tearful eyes, protested that she had been in utter ignorance of the treason; and Mrs. Calloway belioving it in her secret heart, and not caring to part with ber, kept her on ; but she spoke to her in very severo lunns, and candidly avowed that she would exercise a rigid espionage over her in the future. Dora agreed to that willingly. .She was conscious of no ill ; moreover, she was a friendless orphan and feared to throw herself out of Mrs, Calloway's situation, lust sho should not find another. Young Mr. Calloway was sent lo the care of a clergyman at a distance, to read up for the Church which he was to enter. From that timo, Dora found herself next kin to a prisoner. No moro even ing parties for lier, no moro social meet ings. Mrs. Calloway exercised tho right (she said she possessed it) of opening lier letters. Dora made no objection ; sho bud never bad but ono letter since sho entered the house, and that was from her former governess. "Characters are much easier lost than regained amidst young people who bavo to earn their bread ; and I consider it ray duty to take caro of yours," Mrs. Callo way observed to ber by way of semi apology ; and Dora thought she was right (as no doubt she was) mid thanked Her kindly. Hut all this nut a great barrier between her and Mr. Hastings-at least between thsir meetings, lie thought it waa Dora's fault, and a elight coolness bad arisen in consequence. He felt inclined to be jealous of Mr. Charles Calloway, whoso cause of banishment had reached him, though not through Dora; and sho had always beeu somowhat jealous of the great heiress Miss Lawrence, with whom Mr. Hastings was so frequently seen. Still, she did trust bim ; she believed he loved her the best, and that when ks was rich enough he would make ber his wife, as he one day told her he would. Sho, in ber unpretentious ideas, thought he was quite rich o nor.gb new for anything ; he had a largo salary ; but she and Mr. Hastings bad been brvught up with quite opposite notions on tha? point. "When the sun seta be st the stile nt the cross roads," be had whispered In her ear. Evening came ; and just a* the sun waa sinking below the western hills, Dora Stevens crossed Mrs. Calloway's garden to the copse beyond For the trysting place was but jost behind Mrs. Calloway's boundary hedge. It was the I first time Dora had deliberately met him, there or elsewhere, but a few evenings before, upon returning from a walk with Miss Calloway, they had accidentally on? countered him at that snot and stayed to talk. But Dora felt rather sorry now for tho tacit assent she had given to hts re quest; and she meant to tell bim this evening tb?t she could not meet him again unless openly. It was not right iodo BO; neither would Mrs. Calloway allow it. Nevertheless, despite of conscience, her heart was foolishly light as she sped along through the rustling leaves. She sang lightly sore i> pretty, Billy nonsense about the lasses on, which one Robert Burns wrote many years ago ; wrote per* chance in days when ho. too. set by the stile with his Highland Mary, and watched the birds hopping in the stubbte, or the poppies nodding in the corn. Dorn, as she drew near tho trysting place saw a shadow as of somo one wait ing near tho stile, half hidden by the tangled branches of the copse, thick yet with leaves above and below. No need to guess who it was, though Dora, as she pulled he pretty bat lower'; on her face, and pushed back her prettier, hair. How good of him to come so early and wait for her. Suddenly a voice spoke ; not the voice that Dora had ex pected to hear. "Dean, is it you? Have you como back?" The voice waa that of Miss Lawrence. It was Bella Lawrence who confronted Dora's pale, surprised face with a face quito as surprised and a great deal whiter -for it was a haxardous game she was playing-and with a perfectly studied confusion in her manner. "Oh-I beg your pardon ; I thought it was some one *dse," spake Miss Law rence, -'eomo ono who waa to meet rn? .here." Dork paused. Hot tears of disappoint ment, which she could not suppress, - flooded., ber eves nnd drotu-ail nt? h*? white cheeks. "You here, Miss Lawrence ?" she said, with struggling breath, "I don't under stand. Did you speak of-of Mr. Hast ing?" for a terribie fear bad rushed into her.?s???.-j that 'twas Bella with whom he bcd sought to make the appointment, not herself. "Yon most not betray ts?-," whispered Bella, with the sweetest air of timidity imaginable. "You know father ta so proud and Dean ls only his clerk, but he loves me so, and we have so- few oppor tunities to meet You mnst not Klamr. me, Hiss Stevens, or think harshly of me for coming here at times ty meet him. Wo shall not always have to be secret ; when I atti of age my late mother's money will be my own, and thoo wo caa claim each other. He told ros this moruing ho might be Unable to koeo his *DDolm en en t, for ho was going off on som*'hefti ness journey ; but. I~I hoped against hope, aud came.. And when I heard your footsteps, I thought thoy were his. Ab mel" Bella clasped her soft hands tog Cher if? desiccation and her head on them as ehe spoke ; and Dorothy Stevona listeaed i h wild, wideeyes, while word followed word of that cruel lie iel! on her quivering heart sad smote her with a deathly cold pain, whose sting would cllag to her. And the words were fitly chosen/ The girl's alluiion to her mo?ey cut keenly and closely ; Dor? blt her lips I to keen from crying mi? il;*;;. g{j-j XiSA eely ?"pvror governess; ber ouly dowry ber tender heart and sweet wi Id-rose face, and her great absorbing love for thc man who was false to heh Without one word she rose and turned to go, but Della caught ber by tho ann and held her. "Wait, please; how strange you arc! Why do you look so wild ut me? You won't betray us ; promue me that you will not betray us." Dora drew proudly back. "I never betray. You nave my word. I never broke it yet ! I-I um sorry I came." "Why did you come? Thin is t?o un frequented a pathway," A cry, in spite of berself broke fruin thc poor girl't; lips. There ure moments in lifo when anguish is Btronger iban we arc, when reticence is overborne in his whiffing torrent. "Oh. Heaven, help me to bear thin pain !" she sobbed ; and down sho fell in a heap on the grass, and bowed her fair ![olden head, and rocked herself hack and orth, with wild hysterical sobs, in spite of those cruel unrelenting ijyes above her. "What do you mean hy this emotion ?" asked Bells, sternly. "What is thc mat ter ? Is lt possib1e--but no, it cannot be. Yet he has more than once hinted of a something that might como between him and me-some irksome, half-passing amusement that clung to bim like un In eu m I UH, though he was doing Iiis best lo shake it off. Ix it you. Can il be you, you ridiculous girl Dora rose up, her face white as death, and lifted a warning band. "Stop, Mis* Lawrence. I will not hear anolber word. I do not stand between you and your false lover; yes, bo ts false, in spite of what bo say* to you, false and cowardly. You need not fear him. 1 will never come between him and you. I have no money to keep bim, and hu is free from all he hannah! tome. I will never ?peak lo him again ; never. You can tell him so from me. Never again." With the luid words Dora turned away, passed into thu grounds, and ran Hwiftly homo. Uut not very long had Miss Law rence reached her fathers bouse, before Dora wax shown into ber room. Tale, wild-eyed, a shawl wrapped about her, Dora put down a letter. A hasty, blotted, iiicely-writtcn-letter in tliat pas sionate hour-ob, bow cruelly, and like ly, after it was received, to put nil thu wide world between ber and ber ?over. For when girls are strung into mad ness, they do at! binds of iiicomprehciiHiblu things, never sparing those wno have in jured them. "Il is my renouncemont !" Dora panted. "I thought I would bring it to you, and you would send it to him as you know where he is gouo. Did him never answer j it. Lot him never in honor speak to me ' again-never look at me. Faro you well Miss Lawrence. I wish you both well." Mr. Richard Lawrence did not do hi? work hy halves. In spite of Mr. Law rence's gout and his confinement to the counting house, ho found timo to run down to Liverpool and talk over some arrangements with Dean Hastings. And tho very next day llichboroiigh heard that Mr. Hastings had sailed for thc West Indies, homo complications ha;! arisen out lhere, and Mr. Hastings wai gone to set them ti? rights. Meanwhile, Miss Lawrence paid r friendly visit to Mrs. Galloway, darin; which sho imparted a few hints of thai designing Dorothy Slovens' wickedness in wanting to como between her and t gentleman to whom she was privatclj engaged. Mrs. Galloway lifted her bandi and eyes, and readily promised that ii any letters came for Miss Stevens (unies in ibo handwriting of her infatuated sot of whom she did not feel assured yet they should be sent intact to tho heiress And Dora, finding herself looked upoi with suspicion at Mrs. Galloway's, trentei coldly, yearning to get away from Rich borough, the scene of her misery, be sought that lady to get her a situation a a distance. Mrs. Galloway seized upoi tho idea, and lost no time in doing it but she made a stipulation with the gir that sbo should not disclose to Itichbor ougb where her now home wax. "Indeed I will not." acquiesced th poor girl, all too readily. "1 shall nore care to see Richboroug again, or to hea of it." Dean Hastings was plowing his wa, on the ocean ; and of tho two women lei behind it would bo difficult to Bay whic! of their lives was the most deso?alo, want lng bim ; for who ri Dorothy's angry pat sion waa over, tho first sharp sting of hi falsehood and his desortion past, the her tenderness returned. Night by nigh she bent in prayer for him at her bed side : "Lord, watch over him and prc tecthim 1 Help him, and koop him trot all harm." Mr. Hastings landed in safety. Th first packet ot letters ho received frot home contained that angry ono of rt nounccmcnt, written by Dora. Not thc lt betrayed anger, only a eulin, studie eeriness. Opening mechanically the le ter that lay next to it, he found it in tb handwriting of Miss Lawrance. Th letter chiefly contained items of new written in a playful style ; one of thei ran as follows : "Will you be surprise to hear that Mrs. Calloway hos at lunge, given in to the persistency of tho your people? Report says they are about I be married shortly. Do not break yoi heart ; Dorothy Stevens is not worth i It is very wrong of her to be so muc SWen to flirting-worse than I am ; an tat, perhaps you will say, need not be. Tho time went on ; two years of i Dean Hastings had left soon the cmpk of Mr. Lawrence and entered that of ai other house in tho West Indies, coi nected with Kichborough. News wi heard of him but rarely ; but at the cn of the Iwo years tiding; casie. Ba tidings, worse than had ever come be fer Ho had died of yellow fever. Oloae upon that.

"She lout no time," mused Dora that same evening, when, her duties over for the dsy, she i.tood in her favorite spot beyond the laurels, under the sunset. "No time if she was waiting for him. Oh, I wonder how it all was? UL?i be love her?-But, why ask it?~to fhat end now? She is hero, beginning her wedded life; and he-lies there." It appeared, however, if she spoke of Denn Hasting* (ns she undoubtedly did,) timi he did not lie Ibero. Ii*. wa* allier elbow. His footsteps fell softly over the grass, and she did liol sen or hear him until he came around the laurel? "I beg your pardon, Miss Stevens, I took thc liberty of calling at the Imune to ask for rou, and au old servant told me you ha f i;ome out here." She did not faint ; but she did scream. Yes, it was Dean Hastings, looking ill and shadowy. "Is il yourself?" she gasped. "We thought you were dead." "Hut I did not die, Dorothy. I was given over in the yellow fever ; and some how or other inv death got reported here, I find." "And what did you come over for?" she nuked, all in a tremble of confusion. "Various odd? and ends of matters. To get up my strength, for ono thing ; and to settle down at Hk-hooroiigh, for I am not going back ; and to marry you, if you will have me." "Oh, Mr. Hostings !" "I have heard a word or two dropped from one and another at Itichborough, Dorothy, for il is there that I have stayed since I lauded ; and I OCgiu lo think thal you and I had some false friends. You arc not yet Mrs. Charles Callo way-" "< )h !" ?nit in Dorothy. "Slay a bit, my dear. And I am not vet the lanham] of Miss Lawrence. She has taken another, by the way.

Dora, what do you say? You know, at least you oughl to know, that I never would have married anyone hut you." What did shu say? Nothing. She yiekied herself lo tho arms held out to her, and bent her face down on the true hearted, sheltering breast, happy subs, joyful tears, bedewing it. Oh, how merciful was God !

KEKFIXU KV.T.ST POTATOES.-? be- j lleve I promised to sive you my plan of keeping potatoes, which ia the cheapest, I think, ami certainly thc salent I've ever ?cen tried : I build a |>en of log*, any desired length, and five feet wide, (this lessens thc risk of bulking,) four to six feet high, hew it down evenly on thc inside, so that thc walls may be ceiled or dauber with a good ?Kif ; end have a small door in the end. When this is done, raise the bot tom with aton?a, five or sit Inches high ; cover the?e with dry sand to keep them from cutting tho potatoes, which may now be put in, beginning in the middle. Three or four inches of dry sand must be placed between them and the wall. I sometimes have a plank for this purpose, raising it up as thc potatoes are put in. keeping the space between the plank and wall well filled in with the sand, which will run Jo'^n through the potatoes, as the plank is raised. Let them remain so until freezing weather, when you can readily cover entirely with dry saud, deep enough to keep them from being chilled. Home attention may bc nece-*ary for a while, as the sand will continue to dis perse it -elf, among them, and leave the top naked. There should bc no leaks in the roof. There is but little waste in the saud when once procured. Like the house it is always ready, and at thc spot. The philosophy of the plan is the uni form temperature it ensures, while it ab sorbs and curries off the excessive mois ture that may bo in the potato. I have tried this plan satisfactorily for twenty years. It was suggested to my mind by seeing hogs rooting up potatoes in the spring.-(southern Cultieuiot.

Its ingredients are so skilfully combined that tho full alterative effect of each is assured, and while it is so mild as to be harmless even to children, it is still so effectual as to purge oat from ?lio system those impurities ara corruptions which develop into loathsome disease. Thc reputation it enjoys is derived from its cures, and the* confidence which prominent physicians all over the country reposo in it proves their experience of its usefulness.
