Richard, bring Sophy. My wife aud I always trudge in together, like Punch and Judy-" I saw moro ol' Sophy's long lashes that day than of my own plate. To my g: ? at surprise, I was actually fall? ing in love with the girl, and that at expre'ss speed. Dinner passed away like a dream, and tho chair beside me was.vacant. The cherry voice of my host aroused "me: .?Come up here, my dear fellow. Hugh- Sir Hugh Sagramore-had to leave us, as they havc*a party at home." J saw we were alone. "Hark ye, my dear Purkiss!" con? tinued my host. "I'm going to speak to you like a bluff old fellow as 1 am. Fathers have sharpish eyes. I observed your manner to-day, and I think I can make 1 shrewd guess what lia,--1 given us tho pleasure of your company. You kuow my plain way, ami will pardon me if I antici? pate what should certainly have been allowed to come from you. You are interested in my little SophyV" "My dear sir." I answered, prompt? ly, "I am greath/indebted to you for your correct estimate of my feelings. I am, indeed-to adopt your own expression -interested in ^iiss So? phi i, and, with permission of those to v-hom she is so deservedly dear, "Dick, my hoy, isay' not another word"-my kind (future) parent-in law grasped my hand-"win her.

Still, as you say, it might he as well-just, cxcusi me a moment." . .'nd he bustled out of the room. 1 had hardly collected my ideas, when he was hack again. "All right. Some more wine' No? Well, then, just go and se( how yon like your new orchids in tin conservatory. . There's the door."

Mi happiness was only equalled hy mi astonishment at the whole matter both were profound. A little ditlieultynowaro.se. It oe hooved me to plead for au early daj for our union. I had been so slightly acquainted with tin- family, that hail positively never exchanged a ?lo zen words with this beloved? of rn; soul, it might be almost, said, I ha? not, known her at all til! within thes three hours. How, then, can I fi tl; introduce the subject of my intens impatience? Shall 1 leave it to m; plain-spoken papa-in-law? No. Her goes. "And now, dearest Sophy, (ali that sweet name.") "Sweet enough, hut it's not mine, retorted'my affianced lady. "Not-yours!" I stammered, strange misgiving stealing over nu "Certainly not," was the replj ami, as she turned to the light, I hi hehl the face of Miss Crowdie. ..J-1-eh-why, what is this? said I. The young lady burst into ?jtear? and hid her face in her hands. "Mamma t-told me-you w-wishe to speak io me," she sobbed. I hate to see 'a woman weep; au she wept so prettily. . "My deaivMiss Crowdie-" "C-eall nie Su-hn-san." ..Well. Susan, dear, let me -*vviv. off that falling-." I was glidin into tho o d song, and, also, strang as it may seem, into a degree of ii terest for the fair weeper hardly con patible with, my previous cn gag' ments. I scarcely know how it chance that one of her pretty brown silke curls had got entangled on my bu ton. While engaged in disentai gling it, and murmuring words < comfort more or ie s coherent, M Crowdie's broad face appeared at tl window. To my surprise, he rncrcv laughed merrily, adding: "Dick, I want yon. Come hero moment." Miss Crowdie vanished, and Ilea] ing ?Mit at the window, joined n host. "Dick." he said, taking my arr "here has been a little mistake. Al wife, 1 must tell you, has one persis eut fancy- lt is lier fixed idea, th; if the eldest of a family of girls do not marr ; first, the matches of tl rest will be unlucky. With a dec sion, for which I certainly should n have given her credit, she sent Susi in Sophy's place, and-ell-do ye mind much? Sile's good as gold-n Susy, ('onie, what d'ye say?" "lint, my dear friend, Miss Si phia-" "Oh! I'll make that all righ Thanks, my dear hoy, you have mai us vi r- ' -npy." And he hurried o .kiss, Mr. Purkiss, we a iroing ? OJ a moonlight row on tl lake," cried a silver voice, from : upper casement, and' presently dov I came a bevy of damsels, in the centre of whom I recognized my present be? trothed. Miss Crowdie, walking with the timid assuranco of a bride, and looking, in tho moonlight, I must confess, fair and graceful as Diana's self. It seemed to be an understood thing that I was to give her my arm; and thus it came to pass that, in the walk down to the lake, wo were left together, an arrangement to which (I noticed with some relief) Miss So? phia's exertions greatly contributed. They were really a charming family, on the best terms with themselves, each other, and all around them. Wo had a merry row, and were in the midst of an Italian barcarole, when Mr. Crowdie's jovial voico hailed us from tho landing-place. "Let's put in here," said one of the party, pointing to a bank, on which we could :;cf glow-worms sparkling. As we neared thc spot, several of the party rose at once. Tho boat gave a sudden lurch-thero was a shriek-a plunge-a gurgle-Miss Laura Jane had toppled overboard, and gone down in the deejiest part of the lake! I tore off my coat and plunged after, catching her, I imagine, as she rose to the surface, and bore hor safely to thc bank. The poor child, though much frightened, did not seem materially injured by the shock. She was put carefully to bcd, and all seemed going well, when, somewhat later, the house-keeper beckoned Mrs. Crowdie out of tho room. A litilc after, Mr. Crowdie received a similar summons, and it became known that Laura Jane was not in a satisfactory state. She had become feverish and delirious, talking wildly of thc accident and of lier rescue. \ Mr. Crowdie cam* down with an anxious look on his broad visage. "We think, Purkiss, that she wants I to see you." "Me, my dear sir?*' "Yes. Would you yaind stepping np? My wife will be greatly obliged to you." In a*minuto or two, I was beside the poor girl's couch; her mother and the nurse standing opposite-her father at the foot. Her cheek was Hushed, and her eyes, bright und restless with fever, rolled eagerly from face to face, till they dwelt on minc. Then a sudden chungo came overlier. She became calm, stretched out bei little hand to me, and, closing bei eyes, seemed as if she would sleep, still keeping my lingers prisoner. "Who shall sit up with her, my dear?" asked Mr. Crowdie. "Stop lier lips move. Sin: knows us. She": trying to speak. Ask her, Dick, whe shall sit by her?" I repeated the question. "Pow," was the embarrassing reply And the little patient sank into a re freshing sleep. As soon as I was able to release rrn hand without risk of disturbing her her'mother supplied my place, and returned to the drawing-room. Al the fair company, however-even ur newly-affianced Susan-had disap p?ared. But I was not long lef alone. Mr. Crowdie soon rejoiuei me. His manner was embarrassed. "Purkiss," he said, "the chih whose life you saved is very dear t< me. Ahem! You do not desire t embitter the existence you have prc served?" I emphatically disclaimed any sue' intention. j "Then listen to me, Dick," rc sumed Mr. Crowdie. '"My wife an I have arrived at the conclusion th? your noble act has left an iinpressio upon our dear girl's mind strong? than mere gratitude-to be efface only with life." "My good sir," I gasped. "One moment. You are about t refer to Susan. Banish that anxiety She is a sensible, affectionate gir and has (I may as well mentioi already assured us that no claim, n predilection of her own, shall you understand. Permit us to we come your alliance as the husband < my Laura Jane, and our happiness complete." I What could I say? My affectioi were manifestly regarded as transfe able, and they were transferred c the spot. I had the pleasure th very night of shaking hands wit Mrs. Crowdie as the betrothed < Laura Jane ' "Humph!" I thought, as I h down rather tired., "three engag ments in ono da} will satisfy n uncle that I have not been idle!" I was up with t. lt bird which erroneously supposed to be the en liest of fowls, becauso he makes mc disturbance about it, and enjoyed glorious plunge in the limpid lak On my way back from tho bathii house, towel in hand, I encounter Miss Adelaide. She was, I thin the third daughter, and reputed 1 many the beauty of the family, ha iug a small classic head, regular fe turcs and large dark eyes, into whi there came, at intervals, a pe.culi gleam. Like her mother, sho was ] served. I hastened to greet her, ai ;hen eagerly added, "And now, pr tell me of our dear invalid? She h rested well, I hope?" "Shebas rested well. And'dei she is, indeed, Mr. Purkiss, to all o hearts." "You need not tell me that," I ] plied, significantly. "I can only s that if tho most dovo-" "But-" "The most unalterable attac m-" "Stop, I beg of you!" cried i companion. "Oh, my dear Mr. Pi kiss, I havo something to-to expiai There's a mistake." "No-really?- Another."' I mut? tered* "You roticed that my dear sister clasped your baud." (I bowed gravely.) "And, wkcu invited to say who should watch beside her, what did she reply?" ''Yon-meaning me." "So my father thought also, dear friend. But the sound deceived yon both. She said 'Hugh'-not 'you' and-and forgive me, she meant Sir Hugh Sagramore, to whom, it ap? pears, the warm-hearted child bas be? come attached." "Thc sound is not dissimilar," I owned-a little disconcerted. "Still, I-" "If you knew how sorry I am to tell you this," said the pretty Ade? laide, laying her Augers on my arm. (They were white, and beautifully curved at thc taper points.) "Dear Mr. Pnrkiss, take comfort." "I shall endeavor to do so," I re? plied, in a hollow .voice. "It is a blow." "There is a balm for every wound," said Miss Adelaide, gently. "But what kind hand shall admi? nister it?" I asked. The large lustrons eyes turned upon me for a moment, and were as suddenly averted. My companion was silent. She was drawiirg some? thing on the gravel terrace with her parasol, and, to my eye, it took the form of a human heart, with a per? foration in the larger valve. I ac? cepted the omen. "Miss Crowdie-A delaide!-" She gavo a little start. "Can 1, dare I, hope that yon. who kne'v so well how to alleviate the pain of this announcement, will en? able me to forget it altogether?" As I believe I have hinted before, such dialogues an; confidential. I shall merely remark, that Adelaide and I returned to thc house together, and that 1 whispered to my sweet companion, as we entered the Fireak fast parlor "I shall beg an audience of papa after breakfast!" The bluff squire-saved mo the trouble, however, hy inviting me to come and inspect a remarkable pig. On^the way I broached the subject neare*st my heart. No sooner had I mentioned the name of "Adelaide" than my host's gratified smile gave place to-an almost shocked expres? sion. He sat down upon a railing, took off his broad-leafed hat. and fanned his agitated face. "Pnrkiss," bc said, "were you aware-did not your uncle ever refer to-eh-my poor Adv? Don't you know?" "Know?-know what?" "Dick, have you never observed a singular, an almost wild, glitter in that girl's eyes?" I assented. '.ft indicates, when frequent, an accession of a peculiar form of insan? ity, called kleptomania. Have you your purse about you?" "Purse, my dear sir! Of course yet, no; why, bless me, I am sure I put it in my pocket." "And she took it out," remarked Mr. Crowdie, mournfully. "No mat-1 ter; it will be restored, with every? thing else she may lay hands on, in tho course of thc day. No, my dear boy, here the unhappy child is safe harmless-understood. But she must never leave our roof. Cousole your? self. My wife shall talk with her, and make all square. Yet, hark ye, I can? not give up tho hope of calling you my son, because our plans haven't, gone smooth. Dick, I oller you the prize lamb of my Hock-my little Lucy. Just you come and look at her; chat with her if you like, and if you don't lose your heart in ten mi? nutes-" [CONCLUDED IN OUR NEXT."] The corner-stone of tho University of the South - "as laid at Sewanee, Tennessee, October 10, 18G0, in the presence of ten bishops, and a large number of clergymen of the Episco? pal Church, and thousands of specta? tors.
