The past! the pest!,ye.rise before me,
And old the dorliiness of ray g!norm
And Visions of the loved cuter , Wei me.
When not one shirdow dimmed my home
The post! the past! my heart is oblong,
Forever fur some joyous tone;
But suern'ry from her urn is eating
'A mournful echo! gone —all gone!
In vain, in ruin, nrtilind me smiling.
Glide happy roans with mirth and glee;
Nor danae, nor song] the hours beguiling,
Can bid remembrance fly from me.
The unknown future dim is iddniag,
Beyond the present's troubled Brut
But sweet druallui;rtiund my Ppirit twining;
Are liuh'll bright buried past, withlhee!
The cycs'w hope quiet lumre Primed u
The voices breathing enedc's strain;
The gentle hands which oft h.ttu prer.'4l us,
No after years bring back again;
The summer flowers Iltac sail wither,
lint when Vie winter's reign is o'er,
'The,le children ne s tlist Sun come hillier,
Aqd glad our longing eyes once snore
litutjthe tn•t for whom our tears ore falling,
No future wafts hack to our shore;
The wrung iteJrt o'er their graven is calling;
jßut they tome no more—they come no more!
DESTINY IN A ROSE-BUD,
lIW GRACE PREE:ViVOOD
Reader mine, gallant air, are you a clitir
voynnt? “Not given to anything of the kind?"
Eh blco, you will assume that character for
once, and for a liurpose, will .you not? So
now we are en rapport,: we must ,go back a
dozen years or so. into the past. We are ap
proaching a country village—we at the pret
tiest cottage it contains—we enter the bloom
ing garden—we hear a low murmur of voids
in that summer-honse—we draw near, and
nearer through the clustering vines.
"Ho, what a superb girl! rather youngish
but-a divinity, by Jove!"
"Rut, la, sir, don't you mark the youth at
her side? a. very Antinntis!"
4 , 11e,-4h, m g, passable, barely passable,
madame."
c "Sir, where is your taste? look again:
what a magnificent brow—what glorions eyes
—what lila—what hair—and, what a form?
But they a‘-e reading, and from one book; what
can it be? for the young man looks sad, and
the girl's dark eyes are glistening with tears.
Let us catch a glimpse of the title—" Paul
and Virginia!" "
The town of It-, in the interior of
Massachusetts; has one of the sweetest...bar
sonages in the world. Ido notbelieve it can
be surpassed by anything short of some of
those lovely English rectories, about which
our travtlerii go into exstacies It is nested
in foliage and flowers, and hung-about with a
perfect drapery of vines. At the same time
we have talin for the commencement of our
sketch, it was occupied by d family of rare
taste and refinement, consisting of the Rev',
Charles Grey, a man of great learning and
devoted piety; his wife, ati excellent and
lovely woman, and her niece, a beautiful girl
of sxteen, but for whom the cottage home
wo i have been Comparatively desolate, for
the Greys were childless.
Madeline Temple was the sole and orphan
daughter of the only brother of Mrs. Grey,
and was an heiress. Mrs. Grey, who had re
ceived a highly'finished education in her. na
tive city, Boston, was herself Madeline's
teacher in all feminine accomplishments,
while her husband attended to the "classics."
I have said that Madeline was beautiful; but
her beauty was of a peculiar type.. It was
not n'aractive—it was too proud and spirited
for 4,at except to the few who loved her and
whom she loved. Iler presence, even at that
' early period, was imposing; tall, fair and se
rene, she walked, rode, danced and conversed
with the quietest dignity and most exquisite
grace—a child in years, but an elegant wo
man is her ways': One powerful and pre
. demintNing trait ruled and moulded her entire
character—and this was pride, lofty, unYield:
ing, uncomprotriising pride. And yet was
Madeline Temple in heart most womanly—
true and rearm in her affections, even to: pas
sionateness, yet carefully concealing all un
der-a-manner cold,- and at times forbidding.
- But when she smiled—ah, when she smiled,
everything princess-like and chilling, every
thing which kept one from loving her, 9nish
ed in an instant, and Madeline was bewitch
ing. •
There was one who, though not a member
of the minister's family, had .been from his
childhood a constant visitor. This was Ed=
ward Lawrence; the, eldest son_ of a small far
mer, living just out of the village. Mr. Grey,
with whom Edward was a great favorite, had
had the solo charge of his education, having
undertaken to make tip for the young man's,
want of a collegiate course and after Madelines
arrival, the two pupils had pursued their stud
ies together. Lawren ce
4 Was handsome,
strikingly so, but otherwise he was only dis
tinguished. for a modesty anddelicato sensi
tiveness almost feminine.- At the time whon
we introduced him to our readers, he had
reached his twentieth year, and yet went ,his
way, utterly and strangely unconscious that
he was one to be gazed after, envied, and
loved adolingly.
But there was one who felt that there was
a double fascination in:bis unconsciousness—
and this was Madeline Temple. Ere, she her
self in her proud unimpressiveness, guessed
such a thing, her !whist was irrecoverably his.
Slowly, but warmly hind rosily, stole the Morn
rise of love up the tWillght sky of a lift. be
fore all cold 'and colchrless.
And Edward—from the first year spent in
bladfline's society, he had loved with more of
intense passionateness thitn, she was capable
of, and with the deepest and tenderest devo
tion. But years passed by, and he sought no
return. Madeline was rich, and he, though
not altogether portionless, was no match for
her on the'score of wealth; and a morbid feat

At length, when Madeline was just eigh
teen, her relatives _in Boston, a family of
wealth and high standing; became desirous of
having her with them, in order to introduce
her to fashionable society. Madeline was in
love, but ladeline was a woman, and the
brilliant lie thus opening before her, had its
fas'cinations: she was also very much inclin
ed to test in that way the strength of the pas
sion which had been engrossing her heart and
thoughts t so long a period.
The las night of Madeline's stay had ar
rived and dward was at the piirsonage -to
take leave: It was a summer's evening, and
when he rOse to depart, Madeline, 'Allis lib
quest, strolled with him toward the gate, as
she had often done. rWhen they reached the
termination of the walk, she paused and held
out her band as usual. -She was very pale
with her proud head thrown back,

The year that followed her return to Bos

a rare order and a fortune, it was a little woo

come the rage. The history of some of the
triumphs of her belle-hood even reached her
old friend 'in their quiet, rural retreat, and
greatly were the 'chastened hearts of the good
clergymar rind his' wife troubled because of
the,temptatiens which must beset the pat li-

Madeline had been

Boston. the there became known to a dis-

any decided objedtion to seeing the woman
they lovd the fashion;—it is an agreeable

Lawrence, he found himself more irreclaima

pride, his r
