Going io School.
He helped her over tho meadow brook,
While her foot oho timidly Bet
(Twin lilies they were) on tho mosey stone,
With tho cooling ripples wot.
They passed the brook, and P. seemed to
sing.
With a sweeter, merrier sound,
As the two with their school-books wan?
dered ot:
Over the cloTor-ladon ground.
Oh, little maiden, how fair ryon were,
With your eyes of hoavenly blue;
And tho dimples played on your cheeks, as
play
On a rose the. drops of dew.
As play ?n a roso tho drops of dow,
Whoo the koon breezes merrily blow.
And your lips they wore tinta or tho ripen?
ing peach,
In tho morning's ruddy glow. ' ".
Bare feet, how they twinkled among the
grassl
Did you know, whenever you took
Tho path for school, that ho w ited for
you,
By the willOw-Bhaded brook?
Binco then, tho fragrant blossoms have
come
To the boughs, ah, many a time;
And a bridge ls over the brook that ?lings,
As of old, its pheasant rhyme.
And two are straying upon tho bank,
As I pon theso wandering words,
And they taut of tho happy school-day
timo, i
And they watch tho building birds.
But a stream there is with a grander flow,
With a sterner, sadder song,
And lovors will cross to a different school,
And help each other along.

&ETTIE HAUGHTON.
Mr. Haughton wns by profession a
bookseller-a gentleman of consider?
able reputation in his own immedinto
vicinity-and, of course, highly re?
spected by his moro intimato ac?
quaintance. Unfortunately for him?
self, he had married a lady who was
more disposod to rule than to obey.
Her sphere of government was limit?
ed, but this only rendered her tho
moro despotic. Hence, ike was ar?
bitrary and imperative. Her hus?
band was of an entirely different
character. He olaimod to be a de?
scendant of Adam, only uncertain of
tho dignity of his ancestors inter?
vening.
Mrs. Haughton was fond of dis?
play aud fushiou-Mr. Haughton of
retirement and simplicity. Some of
his children took him as an example;
some of them her. How it happened
that two persons of such opposite
tastos and scntimonts became united
in "holy matrimony," it would bo
difficult to conjecture, if tho samo
thing did not occur every day. But
thoro is no necessity for acuteness of
observation to perceive that mar?
riages aro not now, at least, tho result I
of mutual love. So far from it, if j
there is any lovo on tho ono side,
that is su?liciout; and if not, tho com?
pact is tho same-tho parties aro
joined in matrimony, legally, and
this tie holds them together.
Mr. Haughton, no doubt, married
by accident, or his wife may have
planned tho connection. This sho
would not bavo hesitated to do, for
she cared little for tho world, being
in the main tffeovo them-that is, in I
her own estimation. Her daughter |
was a fae simile of herself, though
far moro intelligent and beautiful.
Few were so highly favored by naturo
as she. Education also had contri?
buted its duo to her accomplish?
ments. As she was moeging into j
womanhood, sho had many admirers |
and several suitors. Tho former sho
hardly noticed-the latter discarded.
Sho set a high value on herself; its
value was a fortuno; her mother's
estimate of hor was tho same. Nei?
ther af them regarded tho moral af?
fections very highly; something bo
sidos lovo, in their view, was neces?
sary to happiness-at least to tho
genteol part of society.
"Why, Mr. Haughtou and myself,"
said Mrs. Haughton, "have always
got along very well together-or,
should have done so if ho had had a I
fortune-and I know that we never
married for Jove-never."
So Mrs. Haughton discussed matri?
mony, so theorized before hor daugh?
ter, who very readily adopted her
views. Her object, thereforo, was to
get a fortune for Bettie; to secure hor
alliance with somo million airo; and
to do it by means of her attractions.
Accordingly, no eagle moro anxiously
watched for his prey than did Mrs.
Haughton for a victim. In the
meantime, Bettie received tho atten?
tions of many young gentlemen of
talent and respectability, for sho ima?
gined that tho more she was sought
aftor, the moro sha wo*ild bo in de?
mand.
The old gentleman watched all
theso manouvreings and many others
-sad at hoart to think that his
daughter was thus set up in the ma?
trimonial market to bo struck off to
tho highest bidder; for ho knew that
without love there could bo no hap?
piness in a matrimonial union; ho
knew it from experienco. Bettie was
his daughter; ho trembled for her
fate; and tho more because he could
do nothing to avert her probablo
doom.
Mrs. Haughton ut lust fixed her
eye on a young gentleman of fortuno.
His name was Cavenangh. Having
formed a mercantilo connection with
a wholesale establishment in the city
of M--, ho bocamo very wealthy in
a short time. Indeed, ho was reputed
to bo a millionaire. Soon Mrs.
Haughton contrived to send him her
compliments, with au invitation to a
party. Cavenangh was delighted
this was an unexpected favor; a toker
of regard not to bo miscoostrnod.
Mr. Haughton, soon heard of tho mtv
nouvreiuff in question; like a drown?
ing- man, no made one mor? effort to
save his daughter.
"And who," said he, "is this ?avo
nnugh?"
"A millionaire," replied the lady.
"What then-he is a stranger to
ns!"
"All persons are ?trangers to us till
wo get acquainted with them."
"And do you think Bettie is going
to love a perfect stronger?"
"Bettie knows her own heart."
"Would sho feel disposed to many
him.if he were minus a fortune?"
"Of courso sho wouldn't-sho isn'l
quite a fool."
"So, then, sho is going to morry
Mr. Oayeuaugh's fortuno?
"Do you think sho is going to sa
orifico nil her beauty, wit and grace
for a moro pauper, as I did?"
. "Perhaps you had less of those
estimable qualities than your daugh?
ter has?"
"I had enough for you, and more
too; and fool that I was for marrying
ns I did, for I might have been f
?[ueen now, if I had murrieel Colone!
Jreen, for ho is a millionaire!'.'
"Yes, but ho might not have beet
if he had married you!"
"I hove not spent your property,
for you never had any to spend!"
"? didn't marry for inonoy."
"And you married happily, didn'l
yon?"
"I elidu't say there woro no tartar:
except among tho rich."
"And no tars, either."
"Well, my dear, I think we ough
to advise our daughter never to una?
ry any ono whom sho does not love.'
"I think wo ought not to advise
her any such thing. We have Buffer
cd enough from poverty, und 1 have
no idea that she shall over suffer so.'
"But there aro other sources o
suffering besides poverty. Spleudie
palaces never take thc place of true
love."
"You speak from experience, de
you?"
"I wish that I could; still, I trna
that it is not ruy fault I cannot."
"Oh, yes; you are very free fron
faults; but tbero is one that you wil
never be freo from-poverty!"
"Providence has contndled ur
destiny."
"Yes! you never have controlled i
yourself, and 3'on never brail, no
your daughter's, cither!"
Mr. Haughton thought it was bes
to say no moro, for he! knew that hi
wife would overrulo him any way
aud that tho less ho said about it th
botter, lt was a settled point tba
his daughter was to marry the fo
feigner, because he was rich.
Cavenangh knew, too, that hi
couldn't murry hor unless he mad
the greatest preparations for thu
purpose. The house which ho mus
livo in after his marriage must be th
best in town-u palace, indeed, i:
comparison with tho rest of th
houses-must be the most costly; hi
eepiipage.of every kind beyond cou:
par?8on with that of every otlirr cit
zen. But ho was to marry th^ bell
of tho town and of tho ton! Th
beuutiful, tho witty, the greatly ail
mired Bettie! And who would the
bo so happy na he? Who su mue
envied, who so much congratulated
No one. hitherto, could get Betti*
no one, but himself, had any hope <
getting her now. And what we ml
riot his general acquaintance sa^
What woulel not his kindred and h
friend? say? So beautiful a brielo
so intelligent-so very graceful-s
accomplished-so refined!
Oh, happiness! ho eifton cried,
To mu tor many year? denied,
Your fields Elysian soon I'll rove ;
Your swe etest valley, hill and grove.
But Bettie and her motlie r mn
first come out a little more. It won
never do for Bettie to be married t:
Bbc had seen more of thc world
more of fashionable life-more ge:
tility, possibly-certainly bad foran
somo new acquaintances. Could si
go into a palace and ned first lia'
seen some of the continental wo
tiers of nature? And then her ov
husband's kindred might ask h
something about these mighty mn
vels; and certainly she woulel feel lil
a fool not to be able to answer
small a question! Of courso, tl
mothar was tho one to suggest to 3J
Caver, augh tho ielea of a tour, ai
ho, of course, too, was as ready
consent to going as she anel h
daughter. He would have hiut
that the nuptial knot might as w
be tied before going, but bc fanci
this might bo construed into want
confidence, and therefore thought
not prudent to do so, for an en
hero might bo fatal.
Accordingly, they were soon (
