A T(?r'l Work. SH-li u? bes i il o the casement lu tho chill October day, While twilight, wrapped In her misty vail, Waa sobbing ber life away; Hearing tho tinkle of the beck, And tho chirp of tho lingering bird, ' And.tho whistle of tho home-bound hind, Aud the low of tho distant herd; Watching tho red leaven floating down From tbo I-ranchea,onu by ono, Thinking of all that a year could do, Of all that a year had done. Sweet as an April morn it rose, The lovo that had failed BO soon, Strowing her path with bright May flowers, Brilliant and-warm an Juno, !> , It drooped in August'? fervid smile. It fell like the year's last r?se; She will scarcely trace it? resting placo, 'Neath December's coming snows. The blossoms will bloom into lifo again At tho call of the summer sun, But nor time nor tide can undo for her What a single year has done. Sitting besido tho casoment Till tho stars gleam through thc firs, Tho largo tears dropping, slow and cold, On those folded hands of hers. They glitter as bright in tho red fire-light Ae the diamond that aho wore, Ere she drew it off, the mocking pledgo Of a troth whoso truth waa o'er. The hollow darkness around her creeps; The day's long watch ia run; And all that they swore but death could do A little year has done. THE IMPROMPTU M Alt Hi A OK. "For Heaven's sake. Susy, do be Hori? ons, if you ?an, for five minutes. Pray, pray, oease this trifling, which is bat cruel playing with my feelings, and let ns treat this snbjeot as it deserves-.so? berly and seriously." "Well, there, then!" cried tho laugh? ing, blnck-eyed girl to whom Charles Westerly spoke. "There, then; is that grave enongh? Soe, the corners of my month are daly turned down, and my eyes rolled, np, and I am as sober as a patient who has caught sight of the den? tist's instruments. Do I snit yon so?" "You snit me anyhow, and yon know it well, yon witch 1" cried Charles, gazing with a smile at the pretty face puckered up in its affectation of demureness. Bat he was not to be driven fro ra his point, as he resumed gravely, after a pause: "The time has come, Susy, when I feel I have a right- to demand an explicit an? swer to my suit. You have trifled with my earnest feeling long enough. I have grown restless under my fetters." "Shako them off, Charley !" interrupt? ed the sauoy girl, with a defiant toss of her head, which plainly said, "I defy you to do it." "I cannot, Susy, and you know it," replied the hapless lover, impatiently. "That being the case," said Susy, "take my advice-wear them gracefully, and don't pull and jerk so; it only makes them hurt you." The young man turned away, and walked up and down tho room, evidently fretting nnd fuming internally. Susy, meantime, looked oat of the window and yawned. Charles continued his moody walk. "Ohl what a beautiful bird is on the lilao tree!" cried Susy, suddenly. "Do you come and see it. " Charles mechanically approached tho window, and looked ont. "Dont you think, Charley," said Susy, laying her hand on his arm, and looking np eagerly in his face, "don't you think you could manage to-" "What, Susy?" asked Charles, all his tenderness awakened by her manner. "What?" "Drop a pinch of salt on his back?" returned tho provoking girl, with an af? fectation of simplicity; "for then, you know, you could easily catch it!" His answer was to turn angrily away. His walk this time was longer than be? fore, and his cogitations wero more earn? est; for ho did not heed any of Busy's artless devices to allure bis notice. At last, he stopped abruptly before her, and said: "Susy, for three long years I have been your suitor, with neither profession of love or promise of marriage on your part. Of too ns I have demanded to know your sentiments to me, yon have always coquettishly refused mo au answer. This state of things must ceaso. I love you better than my life, but I will no longer be yonr plaything. To-morrow yon aro goiug away, to bo absent for mouths, and if you cannot, this very day, throw aside your coquetry, and give mo nu ho- : nest "yes' for my answer, I shall consider | that I have received a 'no,' and net ac- j cordingly." "Ana bow would that bo? What would ; you do?" asked Miss Susy, curiously. "Begin by tearing your false nnd worthless image from my heart!" cried Charles, furiously. "It would be n curious pieco of busi- ' ness, Charley; and you would not sue- ' ceed either," said Susy. "1 should and would succeed," said I Charles, "as you sbnll see, if yon wish, cruel, heartless girl !" "But I don't wish, Cbarloy dear-I love, dearly love, to have you love me," said Susy. "Why, then," cried the foolish youth, quito won over nguiu, "why, thou, dear? est Susy, will you not consent?" "Remember, I said I likod to be loved," replied Susy; "I did not say anything ubotit loving. But, pray, how long did you say you hail been courting me, in : that pretty littlo speech of yours?" "Taroo long years," replied Charles. "Neutty aud accurately quoted, Char ley. But you know my cousin Rachael was only won after five years' courtship. You don't suppose I am going to rate myself any cheaper thou sho did, do you ? Suppose we drop tbis tiresome subject for two years; perhaps by that timo I may be able to work mysolf up to tito falling-in-love point-there is no know? ing what wonders time may effect." "If you aro not in lovo now, you will never be," replied Charles, sturdily; "and I will have my answer now or novor." "Novor, then," laughed Susy. Bat bho had gone a step too far. Her often severely-tried lover was now too mach in earnest to bear her trifling any longer. "Never be it, then!" ho cried; and seizing his bat he strode from the room. Susy listened to his receding foot-steps with dismay.1 Had she, indeed. by her incorrigible lore of coquetry, lost him? It smote ber to tb? aonl to think HOV !*S she heard bim open tho front door, im? pelled by a feeling of despair, she raised tho window sash, und, leaning forward, whispered; "Chorley, Charley ! yon will be at tho boat to-morrow to bid me good-bye, won't you? Sorely we aro still friends?" As she spoke, she toro a roso from her bosom and threw it to him. It lodged on his arm, but he brushed it away as though it had been poison, and pusscd on without looking up. Susy spont tho remainder of the day in tears. Early tho next day tho bustlo of depurturo bogan. Susy was going to ac? company her widowed and iuvalid mo? ther on a trip for her health. As they reached tho wharf, and desccuded from tho cnrriage, Susy's eyes made them? selves busy searching for a wished-for face; but it was nowhere to bo seen. The steamboat lay panting and pulling, seem? ingly impatient to bo lot loose. Susy's mother, uided by the servant man who accompanied them, had already crossed the gnngwny, which lay between the wharf sud the boat, and Susy was re? luctantly following, when the sonnd of a voice behind her-tho very voice she had longed to hear-stnrtled her. She turn? ed to look round, and missing her foot? ing, fell into the wator. Another instant, and Charles had thrown off bis coat, and calling out loudly, "Tell the captain not to allow tho wheel to stir, and to lower mo a rope!" ho sprang into tho water. But of her whom ho was risking his life to save, ho was nuable io perceive any trace. Judging that the ourrent of tho river might have carried her a little forward, ho swam round the wheel, but still he saw her not; and despair seized his heart as ho conjectured that BIIO might be under the boat. He strained his eyes to see through the water, and at length dis? cerned, far below tho surface, what seemed the end of a floating garment, lodged between tho wheel and the round? ed bottom of the boat. If this were, indeed, the unfortunate girl, the least movement of tho wheel must inevitably crush hor, and Charles, in his terror, fancied it was already be? ginning to turn. He dived and clutched at the garment, but missed it. Ho rose panting, and almost exhausted; but scarcely waiting to get breath, ho again plunged below. This time his efforts were rewarded with success-at least so far that he was able to bring Susy's form to the surface of the water; bat she seem? ed totally lifeless. Charles was now so nearly exhausted that he had only suffi - oient presence of mind left to clasp Susy convulsively to him, while he kept him? self afloat by holding on to the wheel. But this, his last hope of support, seemed also to fail him soon, as he per? ceived that it was now really beginning to turn slowly round. By a desperate effort, ho struck his foot against one of tho paddles so as to push himself as far from the danger as possible. As he did so, something touohed his head, and his hand grasped a rope. New lifo seemed now infused into him. He gathered all his energies, and fastened the rope round Susy's waist-consciousness then entirely forsook him. lu the meantimo, the wit? nesses of tho scene, after giving Charles' instructions to the captain, had watched his struggles and exertions with breath? less interest. Tho friendly rope had been flung to him again and again, but in the excitement of his feelings and his semi seusibility, ho hud been incapable of availing himself of the proffered aid. At lust, perceiving that he was quite exhausted and must inevitably soon let '? go his hold on the wheel, and then pro? bably sink to rise no more, tho captain judged it best to run the risk of moving off, so that n small boat could be sent to the rescue. The result of thia hazardous experiment was succossfnl. Susy was raised by the means of the rope, and a boat reached Charles in time to save him also. Jioth^sufferers were taken on board the steamboat, which now moved off to make np for lost time. And thus, when our hero regained his j consciousness, he found himself mauy miles from home. Of course, bis first j anxious inquiry was for Susy, and when ' informed that she was rapidly recovering, I his happiness seemed complete. He showed his contentment by fulling into :i deep, quiet sleep. About suu-Pet, a message carno to him ! that Miss li-desired to seo him. He j found her lying on a sofa in the captain's ; state-room, which had been given np to i her. Her mother was sitting beside her. She looked very pule and somewhat suf- ' feriug, but she held out her hand to him very gratefully, while tho tears stood in j her ey os. "Charles," said she, without offering a I word of thanks, "I want to see a clergy? man. Is there one on board?" "1 will go and see," said Charles, inov iug to the door; but a dreadful thought ' striking him, ho turned, exclaiming. "Susy, you do not think that-" "That I am going to die?" said she. | anticipating him. "No, Charles; but 1 I want to see n clergyman." Charles went and soon returned, nc- 1 companied by a minister. "I thank you, fur, for coming to nie," j said sho to the lattor, us be entered. "I have a strange request to mako of you. Would you object, sir, in tho prescuco, and with tho cousent of my mother, to unite mo to that gentleman?" if tho minister was astonished at this request, Churles was infinitely more so. "What did you say, Susy?" said he. "Did I hear aright?" "I believe so," said Susy, smiling at ! his eager amazement. Does tho scheme j meet your approval?" "It was heaven-inspired," cried tho poor follow, frantic with joy-but a shade coming over his radiant face, he added, gravely, "Bot, Susy, havo yon consider? ed? Remember, I want your love, not Ml I lt III I your gratitude. I will be satisfied with nothing less." ? "Do not bo concerned about that, dear Charloy," rettbed tinny, gazing at him very tenderly through uer tears; :'be as? sured you hav-? them both, and had the first long, loofc oefore you had the last." "But, Susy, you said only yesterday-" "Never mind what I said yesterday," interrnpted Susy, with some of herold spirit breaking out. "Just mind what I suy to-day. If I wus n fool once, is that any reason I must bo ono nlwayB? But, indeed. Charley," sho added, moro soft? ly, "I have always incant to bo your wife-tho only scrnplo I bavo is that I am not half good enough for you." It is needlers to suy how the discussion ended. Tho reader bas already divined that Charles contiuued his journey; and thus in the course of one eventful day ho risked u life, made an impromptu mar? riage, and set out ou a most unexpected wedding trip.
