Though I re tried td do right and to please you Iand my mother-do yon not believe it?" S "Yon are a dear little girl," said her fal her, trying to steady his voice, "and ha ve never done anything to displease nv? during your whole Ufo. I do not fear th it yon ever will. I accept the past as an earnest of yonr future conduct." " ' ri am sure, father, I never will dis? please or disobey you, if I know it." . There was silence for a few moments. Juliet occupied herself by gazing inte the fire; when she raised nor eyes they were suffused with tears. "Mother," she asked, "are you not sorry Madame is going? I no not know how I shall part with her. I love her sc dearly." T "Do not fret abont it. " said her mother, in a comforting tone, "no doubt Ma dome will writ o to you, if you oak her ann that, yon ?now, will be BO nice, am Vul improve yon BO much. It will no bo feo bad SB you think; trust me, it wil not." "But then, how do I know I will lik< mir new governess; she may be a cross snappish thing, like Miss Lynch?" an< the spoiled child fairly sobbed at thi .thboght I ,"No fear of that," interrupted Mr Clayburn soothingly. "No fear of that ?pu are not to. have any other governess You are to go away from home to school Dp yon hear my words, Juliet? do yoi near me? Come, dry your tears am listen, while I tell you about it; you hnv always wanted to go, you know." ? '"And will you send tho child away? murmured the invalid, in a patheti Voioe. 1 It seemed to her, the earth ha< Suddenly become darkened. ' 'Have yoi deluded on that step, Joseph? Have yoi thought well of it? The very life an glory of tho house will depart." ? I'lt know it," said Mr. Clayburn. "1 will bo very lonely here, and particular! far you. Mary; but I have decided thi edurse ?B right and. proper. " : {The poor lady knew then there was n remedy for it. From this tribunal thor whs. no appeal. Joseph Clayburn wo obstinate in performing whatever he coe sidered his duty, no matter if it was c tho expense of his happiness. ?"She ought to mix a little with th world," resumed Mr. Clayburn, resnmin the thread of discourse. "Heretofor she haa lived tho life of a recluse. It j sot a life suitable to her age and proi pacts, and besides, I wish ber to beoom ita elegant, accomplished woman. He homo ednoation, I believe, has been cai rilad far enough. She is approachin womanhood now; shu most go away t acquire that necessary superficial polisl that smooth varnish of sooiety, whioh : not accessible here, in so secluded a r< treat.

As for Miss Juliet, herself, that youri i iady was totally metamorphosed by th , sadden turn in affairs. Her heart was i a tumult of enthusiasm. She pulled 01 a soft cambric handkerchief, dried lu blue eyes and looked immensely inter?s od. So the bright dream of which ha jihnunted her for years, was at last to 1 Realized ! She was going to boardini yq mool I Her father had granted hi "j* rayer at last Heretofore the poor ol an had nover mustered up suffioiei T Mirage to look the matter in the fae U; et Juliet go from homet Why just 1 "j dil take the sutt ont of the heavons 1 M Qce! ,o.' Juliet Clayburn waa a merry-heartei upoorful oreature, with a restless, una] ;peooablo yearning Tor novelty andyour companionship. Of these things she hi been deprived most of her life, for ev? ia the summer season, when Orkney w, fay and alive with' company, her fath Lud never permitted her to leave hi ?Wftrjrtr^ -iaa??ai jfl.thf fffflMritles of tl place. It was oeridnly a dull life for young oreature. Suo. sat silent with ha niness, her youthful mind floating on tl buoyant waves of hope and expeotatio ! Mr. Clayburn, after striding up ai down the room for some moment stopped in front of his daughter. : "I have not exactly decided whit school will ho best for you, Juliet," 1 said; "Madame Travers in Charlestoi or tosend yon to Ashburn to live wi ?our Annt Thurlow, and attend the As urn Female Seminary." "Charleston is nearer here, father enthusiastically Bpoke Juliet, her couni nance sparkling with animation. D not Eugenia Rawloigh attend Madar Travers' school? and hadn't she to Juliot some things in referenoe to it, \ -'. i ?liTriMi?T- . "f .milln? . ?**BW surpassing ' tho - enchantment of tbe Arabian Night?? "It io mqoh nearer," abe continued, "and ? good school, undoubtedly; for Eugenia newleigh bee been there two years." By this speech she unconsciously de? feated her own purpose. "Does that giddy girl go to Madame Travers'?" was her father's* storn ques? tion. "Yes, air," said Juliet, oomplotoly abashed. "Then, that point is settled. Ido not particularly admire Eugenia Rawleigh, and I would not choose her for your pre? sent associate. She would completely turn your head with her vanity and silly gab about beaux and such stuff. Bah! Juliet, not another word about Madamo Travers. If yon have sot your heart on that, I nm sorry for it; dismiss nil such hopes at once. You shall go to Ashburn to your aupt. It is no doubt tho bost place for you, after all. She onu oxeroisc a general supervision over your studios and your conduct, and remember, dear, while she is thus your guardian, you must render bur the samo duty and obe? dience you have always been taught to render to your parents. For tho timo being sho will stand in tho same light. You will have every advantage iu Ash? burn. Tho best literary society; for ?our aunt receives a great deal of that sort of company. She in a literary woman herself, and although I do not intend you for a blue-stocking, still I would like you to possess brilliant ac? complishments. You will go there cheerfully, my daughter, will you not? and buckle down to hard study. Strive to improve every moment of your timo, so that yon will return home n pride and a joy to your old father's heart." That poor old father almost broke down in his attempt to speak. Mrs. Clayburn was silently wiping tho tears from her eyes, and even Juliet was visi? bly affected at her father's words, not? withstanding the vista of delight, so re? cently opened to hor enraptured vision. "I will do anything to gratify you, father," sho said; "anything in m j power. I do not object to going to Ash? burn. I will study diligently and strive to come back to you a very Solomon in wisdom," a smile flitting through hoi tears. "But pray, do not expeot toe much iu that way; I will do my best, ] promise you faithfully." "That is sufficient," replied her father "when Juliet Clayburn makes a promise, she will fulfill it to the letter. And nov go to Madamo aud say to her, I wouli like to see her horo for a few moments to ask hor opinion about ny arrange meu ta for you. Be quick, my daughter. ' Juliet loft tho room in obedienco t< this command, and making inquiri? from the servant, was informed tba Madame was still walking in tho garden Catching up an old hat of her father's which happened to bo hanging conve niently iu the hall, Juliet threw it 01 her head and proceoded in quest of Mn darno. Sho was speedily successful ; ii har search. Madame was just thou rc turning to the house, stopping by th way for a nosegay of violets. "Really, Juliet," sho said, looking u from her lowly position on thc ground "you affect a so mew li ut fantastic hea gear." But Juliet paid no nttcntion to thi jocose remark; hor hoad and heart wer both full of other things. "Oh, Madame!" she exclaimed, "an aro you really going to leavo us?" After which introduction, thero was very tender scene transpired betwee Madame and her young charge. Thc were intensely fond .)f each other, an vowed eternal remembrance. Nettle time, nor distance, nor separation, shoul change thom; "neither principalitie nor powers, nor life, nor death" shoul moko thom forget. All this was awe enough to tho immediate parties then selves; but Mr. Clayburn was stampir up anil down tho room iu thu state of volcano on the eve of eruption. "Did you have to go to Gog or Mag( for Madame-to tho very ouds of tl earth?" Madamo was a cool hand; si ie w equal to tho emergency. She had so( thundor-clouds before, but never yet be* struck by lightning. 1 'She had been walking in the grounds sho explained, "and Mademoiselle hi to search for her; she was truly sorr sho feared Mademoiselle would scarce recover her fatigue tho remainder of t day. "Sit down, child," said Madenioislli father, in a calmer tone, looking at h flashed face and feeling regret for 1 harsh words." "Sit down and r< yourself." "I am not tired in the least," beg Juliet, and she proceeded to explain h< Madame was mistaken in supposing s had to search for her. Tho truth wi there was so much to be talked aboi the message had been forgotten. R dame, however, with ber usual skill: tactics, nipped thia unnecessary piece information in the bud. "So Monsieur had deoided to se Mademoiselle Juliet to Ashburn. S could give him her hearty support in tl measure-her unqualified approbate In short, the plan was excellent in all spocts. She knew all about Ashbui Elegant society, superior in refinem? and cultivation to any place she had e visited in the South. A genuine At lu on a small scale-the inhabitants moa people of classical taste and eleg? leisure. Ashburn was really charming so healthy, too, it would make Mai moiselle look so rosy, and as fresh a mountain daisy." "Ahl" exclaimed Monsieur, imprest with this new view of things. "F healthy climate, eh? not too oold winter, you think? Some of her sist suffered-ahem-died with pulmom complaints." "Not a bit too oold," averred Madar, "just pleasantly bracing and invigoi ing to the system, and not variable 1 the execrable olimate of her present oality, to whioh ahe could nover get customed, if she lived South a thous* years. When it waa winter in Ash bu it was winter; and when it was summ "So my sister, Mrs. Thurlow, say observed Mr. Clay burn musingly; " years abe has boen persuading me aend Juliet there on account of the mate, but I could not move my fan there, os it would not ault Mrs. Cl burn. Sh? ia better at Orkney than i where else; in fact, I believe it is c the water here whioh has prolonged lifo so far; and she loves the place t But, I say, Madame," and here, broth off abruptly, ho turned to Juliet. "Did your mother call, Juliet? g< tho chambor and soo." As soon as tho door olosod on daughter's form, turning to his con nion, ho resumod "But, I say, Madamo. you have I) With ?sy daughter three years; do yon think she inherits her mother's delicate constitution? Be osndid now, if yon pienso." "No," said Madame firmly, "I do not think her exactly delicate*, thai io, she is Seldom sick; nor do 1 think her con? stitutionally predisposed to disease. But she is certainly of a delicate organiza? tion. With the lifo she leads now, she will livo as long as anybody; but she is really not robust, and could never suc? cessfully breast a life of want and hard? ships. They would soon uudcrmine her tender frame." "Thoy shall never como near her," ho said, in a touo betraying deep emotion. "They never shall-so help mo Qod." At this juncture, tho subject of con? versation re-entered tho room. Her mother had not cillcd; sho was asleep-such n quiet, peaceful slnmbor. Madame showed signs of quitting the room, bnt at the door, turned back with a sudden thought. "I forgot to mention that I have an intimate friend, who is instructross in music at tho Ashburn Female Seminary. Her name is Mademoiselle Schomberg, a highly accomplished and nu admirable teacher. I will wr?e to her about Juliet, and request her to pay your daughter particular attention. To bike, ns it were, a gencrul interest in all her classes. Her assistance and encouragement will be of incalculable advantage to Juliet." .*No doubt of it," replied Mr. Clay? burn; "I will thank you cordially, Ma? dame, if you will interest hor in tho child." CHATTEN -ASHBURN. A month after, and on a cloudy day in the first wcok in January, Madame Dea mareto and Miss Claybnru's baggage lay all strapped and ready for tho journey, piled up ou tho piazza. Juliet was with hor mother and father, listening to words of affectionate, solomn admonition-seo ing their tears-aud weeping herself almost sick nt tho thought of leaving them aud her swoet home. This first cjo parturo was a diff?rent thing from that for which tho young girl had bargained a harder trial altogether. With all her panting* for novelty nud amusement, with all her yearnings to soo tho world, and enjoy companionship of her own ago, she hud never fully appreciated what leaving homo would bc. It was 'is me? lancholy almost as ii funeral-the most melancholy of earthly things to Juliet in thoso days. In tho piazza all tho ser? vants congregated to tell "Missio" good? bye-her own maid Hetty among tho rest, who struggled ineffectually to con? trol her boisterous grief. If Juliet had boon dead, they could not have raised a greater howl of sorrow; and hearing the bitter lamentations only mudo Juliet's tears How moro copiously. Sho thought tho worst was over, when the parting with her mother had boen accomplished, but, if possible, her father's grief was more touching still. The stern, strong man was completely overcome. His last, his fairest ono, could he live out of her presence? She had never been separated from him a day in her lifo; could he let her go now? Madame looked at her watch nervously-they had miles to ride to the depot, aud there was no time for persuasion or parley, BO Madame pulled Juliet from her father's arms and thrust her forcibly iuto thc carriage. The horses dashed off, but Juliet leaned from tho window, kissing her hand repeatedly to her fathor. She could only got an occasional glimpse of his person for the evergreens and trees, and after awhile he was entirely hid from sight. Convinced that sho could seo her father no more not oven get a sight of tho house-Juliet J resigned herself to fate and settled back ? in the carriage in quiet despair. So the last days sho could pass at homo for a long time had fleeted away. Her lost daysl Poor childi How of ton in tho days to come at Ashburn would her mind revert to thoso lust happy hours at home. Tho last memorable month, whoso space had been crowded to tho utmost capacity with love and happiness. Long did she remember the caressing endearments heaped upon her by her do.it ing parents, the pleasant walks aud long conversa? tions with Madame. How they had sat in the Orkney Grove, beside tho beauti? ful spring, and, basking in the beams of the warm sunshine, wove gay visions for the future-such glittering day-dreams of happiness! And they would have sat there forever perhaps, but her fathor would sond tho carriage to fetch them homo, saying it was lato-or sometimes the poor old man, jealous of a single hour's absence, would tako tho long walk himself, giving as a pretext some busi? ness transaction nt tho stores. But Juliot and Madame both know why ho came, and it mado tho daughter weep moro convulsively, when she remembered the innumerable evidences of her father's devoted love. Ah! she would repay him for it; she would improve every indi? vidual moment of time, and return to Orkney more worthy of her father's ten? derness. Ho should bo proud of his ac? complished daughter, and feel that she had striven to requite his affection by every moans in her power. Making these resolutions, Juliet dried her tears aud i forgot to cry any moro. Our travelers had a prosperous jour? ney. M ad a m ti parted with her young charge at Richmond. Juliot did not mind tho rest of tho journey alone, though she did mind parting with her compagnon tie vet/age. At the farewell moment, Madame handed ber a letter addressed to Mademoiselle Schomberg. ??Mako a friond of her," she said, "you will be snro to like her." Words which were not long in being verified.
