It is a cold, winter evening, the wind whistle ami means without; from another apartment tho merry shout and ringing laugh of childhood is borne to niv car, hut in their j?ys 1 have no part. I sit in my solitary room, ami as I gaze into t!??' flowing embers, failhlul, cruel memory, tells iikwhu I sit ;iliirii' From inv earliest years I long for low and sympathy. Left alone in the world without <>no friend, how often I have wished that t? od had left tne a mother or a si^t?-r; and then my rebellions heart would Idame Providence, that I alone should !> desolate. 15ut 1 was forced to crush sueh thoughts; and with none on whom I tni^Iit lavish inv ali'eelion, 1 grew up a wild, unjjiwrnahlc hoy?my temper was like the idumherin'r volcano, ready at nuvmoinenl tohurst forth with fury,yet none who looked iu'o my iace, hi my calm moods, wonk! have flivamed thai ina moment i mi" hi l>u changed into a demon. I need not tell where, or bow, I mH wito KUen; the beautiful?the lj!i.lions embodiment of aii inv dreams.

'Klleti," I said, one evt-ninir.'"I tremh'e, lest in tiikini; you from your home I should not. make von happy." She raised her confklmjjr eves to mine, siih.1 as slie nestled e.los?r to me, sofl'y answered, ''I have no ft-ar."' ' Jjiit, darling, you <lo not know me, as j I :im; my temper is like the whirlwind? ami you lutvo no fear it may overwhelm ! yon j "Never mind your temper," .she pfaily an- , sweied, "I will mend that; and 1 un-an to] make veil such a per feet dove, that vmi !

Well, w? were married; ami as I hoard ] those innocent lips pronounce the vows to !>< mine?mine forever? my heart swelled with rapture, and inwardly .-wore that hheshiuM never repent that hour. I bore her th<* home which I had prepared for her, and there, in that simple abode, were passed the olliv liaimv d:ivs <if mv lift' \'v I..H1..G were realised. I had love far heyond my i deserts, and I lived in :i dream of holy and , trampiil Bliss, And Ellen?1 know sin- i was happy. Often, when I have taken her I hands, and a?ked, have yon repented, Ellen? i she would fix her earnest, truth fid glance on me, and laughingly reply "Do you sue contrition in my eyes?*' 1 Messed lime ! llow could the fiend find entrance to such a paradisi! ? At the time of our marriage, I had just entered into business an I with a very small capital, consequently I had a great manv hard struggles in meeting my engagements. To Ellen, 1 never revealed these trials, front ;t mist.tiii'ii notion, llial tin; dear could not ujidcrst.su-] husines* martters: and therefore 'r J it woulil give her ij-edloss pain. I had a note in bawl:, which must l>e laken upon, a certain day. My mind* was Iiarrassi'd (Varfully. Should I fail in meeting it, tny credit would be mined. For several days I had used every exertion ; and the evening previous to the last day of grace, found me without the necessary amount. I was about to close the store for the night, uho.n an old companion of my bachelor days entered ; ami,seeing; my dejection, he jestingly inquired if I were mourning over my lost liberty. I candidly told him my situation. lie studied for a few mo incuts during which I finished the work of shutting up, then cheerfully cxehVnned?"I think* 1 can lot v?u have'the money to-morrow." W^j left the store together; and as | my companion proceeded to tell me that, if I I would call upon him, at nine, the. next morning, lie would lend me the amount, I was almost fitupuffed with .the good newx; And cnuld scftreel}' utter my hearty thanks, "Never mind id?ont the old fellow, I understand you?just step in here," wo wereht thcdoor of,a fasI|ioiiabIe drinking h&tide, 'anddct's have, something."' Alas! where was my gunnliau angel then i We entered, niul J drank. In live minutes I fcdl the poison mounting tp my brain.
