ICONTINUED. J She waa very beautiful, not only to my own eves, but to those of every one who gazed npon her; but I did not love her for her beauty only, it was her heart and soul whieh won me. Heaven knows that if every charm had vanished from her face and form, she would Still have been as precious to me. Before she. came to dwell among us, I had known that she was betrothed to another, and she was too pure and frank to make a secret of the fact. She spoke of Edward Waring (an officer in the navy, and who was at that time absent on a three years' cruise,) with the simple confidence of a child, and would run joyously to tell us of the receipt of a letter from her absent lover; and yet, despite this know? ledge, despite tho fact that she re? garded me almost as a brother, the lovo I felt for her grew, against my will, to be the master pnssion of my soul. I never breathed one word of its intensity to living mortal; and she little know, as she leant in sister? ly confidence upon my arm, that I was praying all the while for strength to hide mylove from her sweet, truth? ful eyes. Time passed on, and the hour of Edward Waring's return drew nigh. I heard from my sister that the day for the wedding was already fixed upon-soon visions of white satin and orango flowers were often re? vealed to me through an accidental? ly opened window, and I knew that beneath busy fingers and flying needles, Stella's bridal dress was growing to perfection. Yet now, for tho first time since I had known her, Stella was sad and abstracted; for hours she would sit alone watch? ing the sky; or looking into tho far distance, with something like fear upon her face. None seemed to see the alteration save myself; but a lover's eyes are far-seeing, and I had watched her face so long and so fond? ly. Going to her one day, as she lingered upon the piazza, I spoke of this sadness, and asked her, as a brother might, its cause. "Mark, you will laugh at me if I tell you," she replied. "It is very foolish, and I am ashamed to speak of it. I-I have had a terrible dream, cousin, and I cannot shake off its influence." CONCLUDED IN OUR NEXT. To City Tax-Payers.
