utterly unwort ley. Fortunate am 1 that. she did not

It required, on the part of Ada, a .trong Olin to
assume towards Dr. Bedford a false exterior, and
when he ithdrew from her presence, composed and
dignified in his manner, she more than hail regretted
her fully. But she towed back tills feeling with a
gay smile and a toss of.the head, saying, half aloud
—"Hell be here again before a week goes by."

without bringing her lover. And so went by'two,

The pida=ant day Inol drawn eeerly to a close.—
Two or three tines 'Ledford had been .hrought into
sueli,chs-e• comact with Ada, that he could nut.
without appe a ring rule, h ate voided' speaking a
few wm.ls to her. Oo these eccasions he avid lit
tle ; hot it wit" impos-ihle to help observing, in lies
!winner of her replies, in the tones. aid in the ex
pression of her countennoce, soMething that told'"
him, as plain as language could have tittered it, tin
she deeply repented of her former conduct towards
him. "It is too late," the young man said to him

upon Whitt it V.:'ilt , itill,OzSibk not to pereCiV4s. And
ei,em U 3 lie Said thi-, there arm,e extenuating argil.
meats in his mind, that he in vain strove to repel.
Disturbed by such thoughts and feelings, Dr. Bed
ford wandered away Crow the gay party, arid remain
ed nlol'ie for nea"rlv an hour. As lie retured, he came
suddenly upon Alia, seated in a pensive attitude. just
above a little dashing waterfall, down into which
she was looking. She was so entirely lost in. the
scene, 'ur more probah!y, in thoughts which it 'Was
impss'ble to drive out of her 'Mud, that she did not
Misery the you.tg man's approach. Bedford paus
ed sod denly, and his first impulse wits to retreat.—
But not being able to get his own' consent to du this,
he, (deer a little hesitation. qdvariced, and when
within :a few paces, roused by a few lightly, uttered
words. Ada turned;with a start, while a deep erim
son mantled her faee. It was soinetiine before she
could command herself sufficiently to reply' m ith
anything like composure, and even then her voice
slightly trembled.
Few wrsrds passed between them as, side by side,
they slowly returned to where they
,had left their
coon:anions, for both were afraid to trust theinselyes
to speak. But that meeting had decided the fate of
both. Before a' week elapsed, Dr. Bedford, break
ing
through pride and every other-restrainiegisenti
ment, visited Ada, and beforoleaving her, renewed
his offer of marriage, which was accepted amid a
gush of joyful, tears. Deeply had Ada suffered
through her folly, and froth her, suffering she' had
"come forth, a truer, purer and better woman. - '
Therprire a fow like Ada.' But rarely does the
vain coquette escape with so brief a period of suffer

The villatiu was small, and the church was not a

half covered by climbing plants, and a forest of dark

\RTIN %N Itunr.N. ; —The "Magician" is thus
touched up by the teteran Noah:
'lint the most remark f able piece of magic he ever
played otl . teas to make the people believe that he
ruled the Union. I t 181:2, he supported Clinton
against James Madison, and hurled his thunders
against Virginia; and yet Madison was elected with
out the voles of this State. In 1828, and in 1833, Gen.
Jackson had t ot es etiOugh to elect him- wit hunt New'
York. In 1840, Mr Van Buren nos the candidate
for the Presi [ lency; yet this ungraetful State gave
thirteen thousand majority against her favorite son.
Even when the Bait Mime convention and the whole
democracy of the Union %%as With him, New York
withheld her vote. Yet now, with two popular can
didates against him—with on odious and unnatural
cluinge in his position—with curses loud and deep
against him throughout the Union—he yet persuades
his old friends that he is in the right, the true, the
patriotic!. track, and will succeed and they go with
him. Who dares deny that he is a magician."
