Nan and Eve, lived together nt Appledecombe. This ia not a very respeotful way to speak of them, because, vmile Nan was but a girl, Eve was/a married w?man an 1 her mother; but then she was so young, so absurdly young, to be the mother of a grown-up daughter like Nan, that it seems more natural to call her so, thuu by her pretty and rather romantic appellation of Mrs. Ashley. And should it be objected that Nan is too obviously put into the more honorable position, I can only plead that Nan- was by far the more im? portant. "Why look at their lives. Eva. had married, while still but a child-a very pretty half-grown up child; sho bud then had Nan, and her husband bad died; after whioh, as to nil change, all excitement in her -existence, there was written up against it the word Finis. She was very sweet, very graoious, and the country all around loved and cherish? ed her as something of a gem; but it had come to be an understood thing that the story of her life had been 4old, and she was now only living for Nan. But a woman can be quite as loveable, and very often a great deal more useful, when the story of her life has been told, and she has leisure to devote herself to others; and Eve was, with many, to the full as popu? lar as her little daughter. Truth to say. she was utterly unselfish, sym? pathetic by nature, and very fair to look upon. It was so delightful to talk to Eve, said the girls, whilst giving her a minute account of their last fanoy fair, because she knew all about it; Eve, who had walked from the school-room to the church, and had entered into woman's estate, without ever having once shared in their pleasures. And the men, all the young men from the village, poured into her ears full accounts of their latest love affairs, and gathered from her sympathy that she well understood from experience; Eve, the course of whose lovo had run smoothly up to tho last sad ending, and who was innocent as a very child of the endless little channels through which it may flow. Much more so, indeed, than hoi own child, who was gaining a verj fair knowledge of the troubles and pleasures of that passion, upon thc axis of which it is said the world thal we live in turns round. For, thougl Nan was guarded like a hot-house flower, and held sacred as a link be tween tho living and dead, Eve coule not entirely shield her from a greal many evils she brought on herself, By no rule that applied to other girls could you read Nan. She would saj one thing, mean another, and expect that her thoughts should be divined She would sit and sparkle at her mo ther all her little qnaint sayings at evening through; then an organ ii the street, touching, in some dreary old tune, one of Nan's most delicate chords, she would burst out crying where she sat, and when mother alarmed, astonished, pained, woulc take her in her arms. to comfort ant consols, the room ifould bc ringi?{ with laughter, before the girl's tean were dry on her cheeks. "Can't help it, mamma,"she woult say, "I go up ?nd donn as if all rn; insides were made of elastic Om moment I am down in tho depths and the next some absurd sprint insidj me goes up, and it seems s< ridiculous for me to be sitting howl ing on tho floor about nothing, an? . you look at me with such a long faoe ..that I am obliged to laugh." Which, for one of Nan's state menta, waa unusually correct. 3 there had only prizes been given fo laughter and tears, how many c both Nan would have gained in year. Only it will be seen that she was i some sort an anxiety to her mothei even while Eve believed there wc not, among girls, her equal in th world. Her whole heart was wraj ped np in her child, except sue portion of it as was buried in th waters with her husband., an At! ono groat triumph, of her life was Nan's first ball. On that eventful night, it was diffi? cult to aay whether Bhu or her daugh? ter was tho moro excited. She would let hp one but herself pat tho finish? ing touches to Nan's fretih toilette, and old-fashioned jewels that had belonged to a bride, now 'sparkled and shone on tho girl's fair neck. Bat what would any of Nan'? pubse quont admirers (putting out of tho question those who might possibly be artista) have thought of Ihe piquant little belle of an evening, could they bnt have seen the picture before she started for her ball. A bed-room fitted up like a boudoir, and hung round with glasses. A girl standing up straight from among a feathery mass of whiteness, long glistening lines of drapery falling from, ana lying bright beside her on the ground, and a figure scarcely less pretty kneeling in a half-dressed condition, and fastening on her skirt hobhouse flowers. "?au, herself, looks not uulike a flower, with blue eyes, and her lips and cheeks stained into color; but she still requires to bo looked at artistically, else you might see that the blue eyes are flashing light and the red cheeks blazing with im? patience. "But seo, dear; now look yourself, Nan. It is exactly six inches wide; you couldn't have ono broader t.bnn that." .'What does it matter if it's six or sixteen^' retorts Nan, "if it isn't broad enough? It's no use, mamma, if Jane can't go out in the villago and get me another, I won't wear a sash at all." "But your dress looks so unfinish? ed, dear, without." "Yes, I know that, of course," said Nan, quite unmoved, "but if it's to be a question of looking unfinished, or wearing that," ('that'was of course tho sash hold up high in the air,) "all I can say is, it'll have to look unfinished." "Now, Nan, dear, don't be so im? petuous." "I'm not in tho least impetuous," said Nan, who, whilo she declined advice and rejected hints, always denied accusations, "only nothing on earth, you know, mamma, would make me go to a ball, with a-" And so on, in fact, da capo, ring? ing the changes. But Eve forgot all that was not gracious in Nan, when, with her own heart beating painfully, she chaperoned her through the open door of the ball-room, and found there no face that was sweeter than one that had inherited the beauty of the dead. And Evo herself had never looked moro like the girl young Ashley had chosen, and who had been so admired when he had taken her with him half over the world. That evening was a thorough suc? cess for Nan, but Eve, even while Bhe gloried in it, yet trembled for results. She had ensconsed herself close to a window, where she could always seo tho well known puffing of Nan's dress, and where she could oven catch littlo wafts of her talk, as the revolving dances brought her round that way. Nan had a knack for saying the most unflattering things; with her caressing voice, and all the dimples in her face, contradicting thom flatly, so that no compliment could be so delicious as Nan's littlo quaint at? tempt to set people down, and thc descent was for them easy, whilo thc blue eyes softened the sentence, and tho very mouth laughed at its rude? ness. But all this, though pleasan! enough, and a sort of intoxication tc Cavendish, a young war-office swell, now swinging round with Nan, anc inwardly vowing she was "tho nices! girl out," was a considerable sonrcf of uneasiness to Eve, whoso dislike to tho old idea of tho moth and th< candi? was constitutional, and whe took no pleasuro in watching an] game, where, as well as a spider, i fly is also requisite. "This is our dance, Miss Ashley." This moth was known among lui follows by tho name of Popham, am for him to havo been scorched wouh have been deemed serious. "The next, you will remember Miss Ashley, is mine." So spoke young Cavendish, wholh ignoring the existence of a rival. "If you will look at your card Miss Ashley." "How foolish," said Nan, balunc ing on ono foot, to tho great amuse mont of a would-bo olaimant belum her, and with all the dimples in he face in her full play. "Well, yoi must settle, you know; it can't possi bly signify to me." "I do not hold any lady to au on gagement which she does not hersel endorse." So said young Cavendish, mngnitl cently choice in his words, sittin? disconsolately down by Eve. "Then the dance is mino," say Popham, and Nan fired a Parthia: shot. Mamma, this is Mr. Cavendish and ho is quite nice if you talk t him of horses, I don't think he cars much about anything else. " Cavendish smiled a littlo sulkilj and Eve, rather shocked, hasteno to apologise. And thus it fell oe that two people very much interest ed in Nan, were first made acquaint ed. "It was not at all fair, yon know, sayn Cavendish, addressing Eve, an ????????a*a??a?aa???????W??a?aMW??^M quite ready to talk when tho subject was - Nan and the Listener was the p retty-looking young mother. ' 'That's the third time this evening Miss Ashley has done the same thing." "It's only her way, Mr. ?ay?jii? dish;? "terned Erv, ? ?itL?u absently, with her /ayes somewhat ont in the distance, and her pretty lips set tog?ther firmly. She did not like the look pf that Mr. Popham, and she did not much fancy Nan's father wonld have done so either, and that was, with Eve, the safest of all stand? ards. "Ian?.so glad to know you, Mrs. Ashley," yoting Cavendish goes on, "your daughter and I aro very old acqaintancos." And Eve came back from a some? what long journey into the future, with all a mother's quick instinct of danger pricking round her heart. "Oh-I did not know." "You don't remember me," says Cavendish, blushing like a girl. I've been away, such a time, hut one of my earliest recollections is your daughter. I danced with her at a children's ball, eleven years ago, in this very bouse. I remember her perfectly. She had on a white frock and black, ribbons. Now, had she not, Mrs. Ashley?" Eve smiled. He was quite right, and she liked him for remembering. At the time of which ho spoke, Nan was in mourning for her father, but Eve mado it slight, because her child was such a baby, and had dressed her in a white frock, and put on her a black sash, (as to one whoso width there had been no question,) and sewn black bows on her little short sleeves, and passed a black ribbon through her gold-brown hair. And now it appeared tho little picture was vivid to another as well as to herself. Nan floating towards them, Popham in tho back-ground. "Mamma, I don't at all suppose it's true-don't you move, Mr. Cavendish-but we've just been told there isn't a carriage to bo had, and if it's a question of walking homo, we shall havo to start before supper." This was the time for Cavendish. "My dog cart is put up round tho corner, not ten minutes from here. Mrs. Ashley, will you do me tho un? speakable favor of allowing me to drive you home?" And thus, though Popham took her in to supper, Cavendish drove Nan home at night. LCONTXNUED IN OUB NEXT. ] DEMOCRATIC NOMI?ATIO?sT MUNICIPAL OFFICERS-CITY COLUMBIA. For Mayor. COL. J. P. THOMAS.
