Or if a ready tally of wit, threw 'the circle into a cionvulsivt of laugh ter, he was the auth•.r or it.

"Arthur, I wouldn't: do it„" • • Arthur arrested by the earnestness of her manner, stopped short, and lookitig her in the face, said, "Why not, Ellen 1" For a rti)gneni, * P.llen hesitated what reply to make. but '11.4 she 'stood there, uncertain what answer to give to this Intel rogation, a scene tiros StlB den!! pi:esented to . her mind. which alinOtit dimuted her eyes with tears.

It will make her very unhappy it it is knocked down before S.trah sees it ; and you know it is always a sad thing to make others unhappy. It is so much better to try to make • them happy." Arthur looked earnestly at Ellen ; but he did not laugh at her, as she al man feared he would. On the'con;- trary, he said" in a sididded voice; "I know yon are right Ellen : I will not ktiock it down." • E len's words and manner made a much deeper impreisron than she was aware of. Afier this, when Arthur was about to perpetrate any tnischiev- . ous• trick, it seemed to hi:n a's if a gentle hand was laid on his arm, and. a soft persuasive voice said, Arthur, I wouldn't do - it ;" and he could not do it. The consequence was, his young companions s,ton began to wonder how it happened that Arthur' had r _so sud denly abandoned all his late trick , a I I become so agreeable a companion. But no one, not even. Ellen, guessed the cause. She was Lim modest to attribute an energy so potent to th few word i she had spoken in the nursery. Sixr years passed away, and Ellen HastingS was no longer a child;' for she had bloomed - into womanhood, having reached the golden ago of the novelist, sweet sixteen. But during these winged years, which in their flight had borne her so rapidly to-this point, she had nev r forgotten - her beloved sister Clara or her varting counse:s. .To be good and to , do good had Keen her constant Such‘an aim could not fail to give . 4. Moral elevation and- dignity to her whole character, which greatly en hanced those natural charm.' with which she had been endowed in no stinted measure. When Ellen was sixteen, it , so chanced that she spent a few days with a Friend -who .rwsided in - a city where was. located a fl.iurishing college.- 01)04:veiling, during this visit, she .was in.roduced a small and select circle of intimate friends 4 l, l l 'mg whom %Vere two or. vireo of the college students. One of these was no otner than het 'old playmate at Mr. Herbert's, Attlitir Du tutu ;. Bit E11t3 , 1 dil not reco.f nize him. They had not met since that time, and as that mooting had made no particular impression upon her maid, it was almost forgotten.-- . When introduced to Mr. Dunning, no suspicion of ever. having met him be fore crossed her mind.. • Nut so, however, with Arthur Dun -fling:- The impression made upon his mind had been far deeper, and there fore not so easily effaced by the lapse Of years. As soon as Ellen was intro duced to him as Miss liastings, he was struek with something familiar in the glance which met his,,and in the tones of the .voice which fall on his ear:— They seemed to have a strange con nection: with some scene of the• past; though all was dim and, i i ndistinct.- 7 He could nut recall where-he had met that glance and heardtones. For half an hour. after this introduc tiori, Arthur...punning puzzled and wearied himself by chasing this phan tom of the past. • .Sometimes it would ainrst assume a tangible .shape and he would, think he,was , °Gaut to seize it, When. tvould ,elude his methyl giasp, seemingas airy mid intangilde as ever: • - At length, one of the party with-whom Mies Haatinge' 'was on terms offamil =I LA EDITOR & PUBLISHER iat intimacy, addrease'd her is Ellen my• dear.", fn a Moment the misty veil was removed from the mind' of Ailinir Dunning, a7.d he mentally eit• I have it, I hive it now ; it is gllen " and internally the %vh.)le iceno ill the nurgary at.

Ali! that fort- , 'night at Mr: lirrtiert's—how well do ; 1 recollect it! Eden 11 tstinga, was • my good angel then." Towards the close of the evening, , Arthur contrived-to: get by the sitie, of Ellen, and also to draw her into II free and - animated cutivcrsati ro. 13.3 was about to call to her mind their . former aquaintance, when the attOnti4n . of both was - arrested by the conversa tion of the other members of the little grepip. - Certain college regulation-I :which were regarded by many ofth +student+ as veryl unreasonable, ()nor') is 'and' arnitiary, had.occasioned a disiatisfac tion so general, tine. a plan ‘vai ing and being openly diieu++ed, to resist them.

Th., subject . was discussed with much animation and earnestness by "those present, and a varietitdopiuions were expressed in relation•to it. After listening to the resi for,sonae time. Ar• thur suddenly turned to. Ellen, and said, ".What do you think of this measure, Miss Hastings? Would you advise us to join the party who are about to adopt it?" • "I wouldn't do it." replied Ellen earnestly,-though her . cheeks were in-. stantly after suflii3ed with:blushes,' as she thought hoW frankly• she had ex pressed her opinion to an entirii'strau ger.
