them. The exclamations of delight
were simultaneous, as Albert and his
sister recognized 'Juliet and Mrs,
Colburo,
CM
'Why, this is a meeting.' he said,
'that nearly takes one's breath,'
'Yes,' said Mrs. Co!burn, 'it is
somewhat aston;.shing, even to us.
Bat Juliet could not: pass within a
hundred miles of Newport without a
look at it.
'I wanied to see how the place would
appear when deserted,' exclaimed Ju
liet.. 'We are going to Niagara in the
winter; why not come to Newport,
with snows and without a - crowd 1'
Mrs. Colb o urn, with Juliet and serf .
vants, remained at the Ocean House
over a week; although, save >t few
visits from residents, - it would be dif
ficult to say where the attraction could
be found to detain them. Juliet was
willful. They,bad been visiting the
White Mountains and Canada, god

anothe..r e end most unseasnuable visit
to Newport. - She had not heard that
Albert and his sister were there still
—nor is it likely; had she known it,
that it would have changed her deter
initiation. ' How would Newport look
in winter, and deserted ? was a ques
tion which seemed to haunt her.
. The pleasant days, with their calm
sunny afternoons, continued, and our
invalid made rapid progress in the
many walks along the level sands,
One evening. calm and cool, Albert

said : •
'BO. to-morrow we all separate
again.' It was a common enough
Sentence, yet uttered with . so much
hesitation anti constraint that Juliet
made no reply. With an effort, he
continued. 'This beach, no solitary
now, has witnessed many partings;
but I doubt whether one fraught with
so muLh feeling as this,' .
fp his first sentenc ), he had said
too little; in his last, too much: Still,
Juliet said nothing, bat looked at the

Then followed - a long pause, which
Albert again broke by saying, quite
foreign to his last, and looking where
"Along the level rinds the ger'
Was rolling soft and droamily"-.
'The breaking waves Are more
beautiful,.su are breaking hearts, when.

- What made him say that was. puz

Juliet, still silent, looked on the
sands, and they slOwly walked along.

So ends Juliet at Newport. I sat
down to make a brief record of a sea
son at that fascinating resort, More for
the purpose by a ew unconnected

of its life„ than telling any story.
