The speakers in tbo above dialogue were tho only son and daughter of the Episcopal clergyman of a |p)all, retired village, In the southern part of New' York. Julian Fielding, a young gentleman of twen ty-one, just out bf college, was gay-tcmpcrcd, spirited, and rather handsome; withconsiderable natural cleverness, but little knowledge of-tho world. Still ho could not be pronounced a verdant young man; for, with him native wil and tact well supplied-(he place of experience. Ho was carelessly rather than courageously original, and deservedly u general fav orite. Lizzie Fielding, two years younger, was just such'S girl os young gentlemen love to point out os his sister. She was a very pretty, a very charming creature; truly.beautiful in face, graceful in figure, tasteful in dress, and modest and'unaffected in man-1 ner. She was a vorv embodiment of aflccliormtotteas! ond devotion; somewhat (do tomunlic and sensitive, j perhaps, and given to great bursts of sorrow on small occasions; yot merry as a dancing,fairy between lilies. A beautiful love and a perfect confidence existed l between this brother and sister from their earliest childhood.
