This Nene on September 28th, 1881 CIIAPTICR II The golden Autumn, the cold bleak• 'tress of winter, the balmy sweetness of spring, and the voluptuous warrnt of summer had passed in due season, bringing blossom and fruitage and frost, since Colonel (lrandison had kissed his wife and child farewell. And oh I since then, into what wreck and desolation had fallen the beautiful home in which lie had left them surrounded by every luxury and elegance which civilization afforded. The invasion of Federal troops had rapidly enough mutilated the fences and statues, the parterres of flowers, and the richly adorned ter. races; and the mansion itself had been used as a barracks for soldiers during their surveillance of the surrounding Counties. Fruit.tvees of rarity, and wonderful exotics that had been brought front far Egypt, and which grew in large alabaster wires were broken down, stolen or destroyed; fountains were torn up— statues were shattered; only here and there a dwarf sphinx was left standing, gazing with profound repose upon the wreck ; and one or two obelisks quaintly sculpturea with hie roglyphics intaglio, were left with the rare vines, that had been trained about them, still undisturbed. Slaves had been freed, stock confis cated, farming utensils stolen or de etrayed. And within doors everything of value had been attached tither by Government deciee or military near. pation. All the rare wonders tihat tirandison had garnered tip in this treasure hotise of his heart, flit.' fruits' of a life of wandering, and the marks of dilettantelmtn liltd all been eonfleles • ten -- ivory from Ind, precious stones, onyx, beryl, topaz, sardine and jasper superbly carved with images of Horns, oairis and Ptliabis; damascened sword blades; magnificent embroiderietyand costly houseings ofleopard skins Won derful stuffed birds,,hrotitee, stained glass, footstools—and furniture from over the seas that exhausted all forms, and tables of ver-antique, ivory and ebony ornamented with quaint devices —or carved in intaglio and inlaid with srad and oily,r and mother of-pearl. All had been removed front Colonel firandition's homestead to a distant city and with iris magnificent library the finest private one in the State, had been sold at public auction—to prevent the Njouterie and riffraff of the world from ever being gathered to the right ful owners again. The lauds and the mansion escaped confiscation because they belonged to Mrs. Grandlson, and thus was a roof eared-over the heads of two defenseless wome n.

This Guy Ar nold was a hero in fife way. RH was 'tail and commanding in.peason,liMbeti and grated like • a Greek God, eyes black and of piercing splendor,, with waving hair, almost golden in . hue, with acquiline, nose, and a mouth whoee exquisite sweetness and, expres• sion was unsurpassable. A man with such & physique, and So Winning and cqurtly-an address could not fail to elicit admiration and love in anY land or clime. And tiny Arnold received adulation to his heart's content. But lie Was married ; and consequently, a "gay Lotht rio ;" are of those modern heroes who refuse to put life's golden goblet by with its sweetness untested, its flavor uhenjoyed "because the dregs may have a; smack of hitter ;" one of these social Lanneelota who alloy(' no "pale and clinging consequences" to thrust themselves between him and his joys. Men feared and envied him, women loved and admired hint. Young girls entering society were taught or commanded to shun him, and 1111111111(1. lag manias and over-nice chaperones ignored his presence, or declined Intro ductions to him; and so between popn• lar aversion and popular admiration, Guy Arnold became a hero in his way. lie had heard a great deal of Ethel Grandisort, before the war, but he had -never met her. And now, the interest which social on dile had hitherto woven aryund her for hint, became the great er, because lie knew how heroically she was struggling with advtrse fate, anti how tinmnrnitiringly she 'suffered. This power to "die and give no sign" which she evinced, rendered-her doubly fascinating to this renowned " lady• killer." And it was riot long after he became apprised of her helpless condition and that of her mother _that he presented himself before them as their reedier servant, until such time as they chose to dismiss him Prom their service; or CA3l.Grandisca was enabled to extend to them 'that protection front which they were then necessarily debarred. It is needless to picture the warmth of their welcome, the sincerity of their gratitude, and the firinnese of their faith in bin nobility, his generosity arid hie goodness. He became the lone star in the firmament of hope. And 804111 between himself and Ethel there arose the most cordial friendship; this friendship was fraught with dangerous fascinations for both of them ; for Guy Arnold particularly, (or Faltel's inno cence and nail:We, mingled with such profound thought and exquisite cul ture, rendered her superlatively attrac tive to him, beyond all women he bad hitherto known; for she charmed his soul as well as his senses. Every com• fort was again, supplied, the larder Mlied, servants Ned, an overseer en gaged, stock purchased, and the betas factor was Oily Arnold, and the pro. pelling power was Ethel Grendiscra. And Ethel set down in her little note book ail the installtfients that Guy made and promised opape would set tle some day," and Guy smiled , and was satisfied, and infinitely delighted thwt.he eetird he of lefiriee,-‘ U. yaw genteel .no with a beittairol (lanadisin pony and a grey hound.

Ile would spars her yet a little while, he thought, as he eat there be. side her in the gilded shallop and matched her facet and the 'fanlight glinting on her golden hair which, an. bound rippled around her graceful form. Pof tire first time Guy recog. nized the danger of his position—fo r the first time he confessed that he had entangled his own heart in the glitter. ing meshes he had so deftly woven for another. Perhaps he regretted it for her sake—when ho gazed upon her;— certain it is, that he did not regret it for his own—when he remembeted the gyves that linked him to living de. spnir ! Rather did he snatch at the sops of joy, which the Cerberus of sot. row cast to him. And, "yet 11 tittle while before I waken her," he thought "she is so beautiful and so untroubled now ; I will spare her ! " And so they drifted on:--dn, down the current oldie shining river and the purple sails swell ed to the evening breeze, and Ethel leaned back amid the_ crimson cush ions and smiled and dretifriel and Guy gazed or; her and repented. Ethel softly spoke ; holding her hand out in the water and letting the green ripples of the river slip through her slender, white fingers, as she talk. ed—"Wbo, to view this sweet, peaceful scene would believe that war is desola ting our beautiful country.! Mr. Ar nold I "—suddenly changing her dreamy tones to one of vivacious inquiry—"De tell me why it is that so gallant anti brave a gentleman, as you are, retnaess at home during these stirring times?" "Are you sorry that I ant here, Miss Ethel?" be aittked reproach fully , "No, no," she replied flashing her blur eyes laughingly—"no, no, not sorry. You must recognize how utterly an. selfish and wholly patriotic I am, to even think of the deprivation of your society and your friendship." "And y ott really would hilserme then, if 1 should go?"' he asked softly "0, yer, I teouri/ 'milts was only thinking a moment or two ago, how pleasant it would be to drift away, in "Our Dream" on—on—out to the vast sea,and so far away from the world. Ti 9 so pleasant to float on thus peacefully; it in like a quiet happy life going out to death—Po gladly, so sweetly! No regrets, no tears, and a great calm." Guy was talking dreamily—and Ethel's face grew sad with the reflection of has deep sadness. "Mr. Guy, are you unhappy ?" she asked gently, laying her hand upon Ins arm as she spoke. Guy started, and looked in her sweet, uplifted eyes, then catching nil . his oars, after reefing the Rails, he rowed rapidly up stream, Ray ing lightly, "Unhappy? no, my fairy friend—no,:not unhappy," then, care leasly—"l had no idea we were out so late.
