NO SECT IN HEAVEN ram sitymeLton poky. Talking of sects till late one eve, Of the various doctrines the saints believe, That night 1 stood in a troubled dream, By the aide of a darkly flowing stream, And a "Churchman" down to the river came, When I heard a strange voice call filename: "Good father, atop; when you cross tide, You must leave your robes on the .othar aide." But the aged father did not mind, • And his long garment floated out behind, As down to the stream his way he touk, His pale bands clasping a gilt 7 edged hook. "I'm bound for Heaven, and when.l'm there, I shall want my book of Common . Prayer; And though I put on a starry crown, I should feel quite lost without my gown." Then he fixed his eyes on the shining track, But his gown was heavy, and held him back, And the poor old father tried in vain, A single step in the flood to gain. I saw him again on the other side, But his silk gown floated on the tide; And no one asked in that blissful spot Whether he belonged to "the Church" or not." Then down to the river a Quaker strayed, His dress of a sober hue was made ; "My coat and hat must be all of gray, I cannot go any other way." Then he buttoned his coat straight np to his shin, And staidly, solemnly, waded in, And his broad-brimmed hat be pulled down tight Over his forehead, so cold and white. But a strong wind carried away his hat; A moment be silently sighed over that, And then, as he gazed on the farther shore, The coat slipped off; and was seen no more. As he entered Heaven, his suit of gray Went_quietly sailing—away—away ; And none of the angels questioned him About the width of his beaver's brim. Next came Dr. Watts with a brindle of Psalms Tied nicely ripin his aged arms, And hymns AS many, a very wise thing, That the people in heaven, "all round," might sing But I thought that he heaved an anxious sigh, As he saw that the river ran broad and high, And looked rather surprised as, one by one, The Psalms and I.l.yme in the waves went iown. And after him, with his MSS., Came Wesley, the pattern of godliness, But he cried, "Dear me, what shall I do? The water has soaked them through and through.' And there on the river, far and wide, Away they went down the swollen tide, And the saint astonished passed through alone, 'Without his manuscripts, up to the throne. Then gravely walking, two saints by name, Down to the stream together came. But as they stopped at the river's brink I. saw one saint from the other shrink. "Sprinkled or plunged, may I ask you, friend, Thw you attained to life's great end ?" "Thus, with a few drops on my brow. But / have been dipped, as you'll see me now. And I really think it will hardly do, As I'm close communion to cross with you; You're bound, 1. know, to the realms of bliss, But you must go that way, and I'll go this." Then straightway plunging with all his might, Away to the left—his friend at the right, Apart they went from this world of sin, But at last together they entered in. And now, when the river was rolling on, A Presbyterian church went down; 01 women there seemed an innumerable throng, But the men t could count as they pawed along And concerning the road, they could never agree, The old or the new way, which it could be, Nor ever a moment paused to think That both would lead to the river's brink. And a sound of murmurings long and loud Came ever up from the moving crowd, "Yoii're in the old way, and I'm in the new, That is the false, and this the true,"— Or, "I'm in the old way, and you're in the new, That is the false, and this is the true." But the brethren only seemed to speak, Modest the sisters walked and meek, And if ever one of them chanced to say h.t troubles she met with on the way, How she longed to pate to the other side, Nor feared to cross over the swelling tide, A voice arose from the brethren then : "Let no one speak but the •holy men ;' For have ye not heard the words of Paul; 'Oh, let the women keep silence all?'" I watched them long in my curious dream, Till they stood by the borders of the stream, Then, just as i thought, the two ways met, But all the brethren were talking yet, And would talk on, till the heaving tide Carried them over, side by side; Side by side, for the way was one, The toilsome journey of life was done, And all who in Christ the Saviour died Came out alike on the other side. No forms, or crosses, or books had they, No gowns of silk, or suits of gray, No creeds to guide them, or MSS., For all had put on Christ's righteousness. The Wonderful Housemaid. BY MRS. CAROLINE A. SOULE g I'll bet I know somebody that's a great deal hairlsomer than she,' exclaimed little Nell Summers in a lively tone, as she tossed her building blocks into a basket, pell-mell, and climbed into the lap of her uncle Herbert. ' Miss Kate Odell can't begin to be so beautiful as our Ellen. g And who is 'our Ellen?' asked Mr. Lincoln, as he toyed with the child's sunny curls ; g and how came little Miss Nell to know what her mother and I were talking about ? We thought you were too busy with your fairy castles to listen to us. And if I was busy, couldn't I hear 1 It takes eyes and hands to build castles, not ears—don't you know that, Mr. Uncle?' 4 If I,didn't I do now;' and he roguish ly pinched the small snowy ones that lay hidden behind the long ringlets.g But tell me little niece, where and who is that beautiful creature that rivals the belle of the season in charms, according to you P g Why, it's Ellen, our Ellen, and she's up stairs, I suppose.' g But who's Ellen, and what does she here Why, Ellen's the maid, and she sweeps and dusts and lays the table, and waits on it, too, and does everything that maids always do, and a great deal besides, for mamma never has to think any more, and George and I don't have to cry over our lessons. A wonderful maid, indeed,' said uncle Herbert, in an incredulous tone ; fancy Miss Odell wouldn't be soared if she knew who her beautiful rival was. Bat how came she here g Why, mamma hired her, as she does all her maids, and unless she gets mar ried, we shall always have her, for I know she'll never do anything bad.' c A paragon, truly—this Ellen ; pray explain, mamma ;' and Mr. Lincoln turned to his sister. g I cannot,' said she. I can only cor roborate wifat Nell has told you. Ellen is a maid who has lived with me a fort night only, and yet in that time has won my heart completely. In person--but as you stop to tea, you will see heg, and yon can judge yourself• if she does not rival, - and fairly, too, with the brilliant belle of the winter.. In manners,. she is a perfect lady; she has, too, exquisite_ taste and a tact in the management of household affairs that I never ea* eqttaled—' 4 rTell him how inveetlk she - minipq, inter, rt!Pted the. 3.4Cighter,.- .‘ She Our! me to sleep every ;night, and I always . feel, . when I Ant frik eyes, :an if I was going : rightup to heaven! ', c.l3ravo ! .A very angel .of houtiemaid sbe,mustbe. tongto see her ;' and he-laughed in that- petittliar tone which seemed sky,: you're telling me but a humbug story.' You'll laugh the other °nide .of your mouth,' said eatnestlY;* *met he mamma, when he comes to see her I shouldn't wonder,'• answered her mother, gaily; indeed, if he bad not as good as owned that hi had lost his heart to Miss Odell, I should . riot care to give so young:and enthusiastic a man a glimpse of my pretty: maid. Bat list, I hear her gentle tread' The door of the sitting-room was opened, and there glided into the room, with a step light as a fairy's, a young, slender, but exquisitely graceful female. The single glatice which Herbert directed towards her as she entered, filled his soul with a. wondrous vision, for beauty sat enthroned upon every feature of the blush ing face. The fair, oval forehead, the soft, dark eye with its long, drooping lashes, the delicately chiselled nose, the rose-tinted cheeks, the full scarlet lips, each items of loveliness, were blended in so perfect and complete a union, that one felt, as he gazed upon the countenance, as does the florist when he plucks a half blown moss rose—Heaven might have made it more beauteous !hill, but this suffices. There was a little embarrassment visible in her attitude, as she found herself un expectedly in the presence of company, but only for an instant did she yield to it. Recovering herself 'hastily, she said to Mrs. Summers : ( Did yon decide, ma'am, to have tea an hour earlier than usual r It was a simple question, but the ac cents thrilled the young man's heart, and he thought to himself, if thoire is so much music in her voice when she speaks only as a servant to her mistress, how heavenly it might be in a lover's ear ; and from that time he did not wonder at little Nell's remark about her songs of lullaby. g We did, Ellen, and you may lay the cloth at once. My brother will stop with us. Intuitively delicate, Herbert seemed all the while busy with his little niece, and did not once look towards the beautiful domestic during the moments that elapsed ere the tea was ready, yet he stole many a furtive glance at her through the golden curls of his little playmate, and when she glided from the room, he felt as though the sunshine was driven from his path. Isn't she more beautiful than Miss Odell, say, uncle whispered Nell, as the door closed on her. Didn't I tell the truth when I said I knew somebody that was handsomer than she?' Indeed, you did,' said Mr. Lincoln, earnestly. She is nearly perfect.' I wish you could see her with her hair curled, uncle. Once or twice, when we were up stairs alone, she has let me take out her comb, and such long silky ringlets as I made by just twisting it over my fin gers—Oh, I don't believe you ever saw any go beautiful in all your life ! I teased her to wear it so all the time, but she shook her head and combed them up into braids again, and said curls and house maids didn't look well together ; and when I asked why not she said I'd know when I grew older, and then two or three great tears stood in her eyes, and I do believe, uncle, she cries some nights all the time, for her eyes look so red some mornings. Ain't it too bad that such a handsome girl should have to be a maid 'l' c Yes, by my soul it is,' said the young man warmly. 'Do tell me, sister, her story. There must be some romanoe in it. She has not been a menial all her life.' What I know, I can tell in few words, Herbert. When Bessie, my last maid, gave notice of leaving, she said she could recommend a substitute, and I, not being very well, thought I would sooner trust her than run the risk of going day after day to the intelligence office. She said a young girl who, with a widowed mother lived on the same floor with some of her friends, had applied to her for aid in ob taining a situation as maid, and she thought, that what she had seen and knew of her, she would snit me exactly. I was somewhat startled. when I saw her, for though Bessie lied told me how beautiful and ladylike she was, I was not prepared for the vision that met me, and, and to tell the truth, in a most unbusiness and nn housekeeperly way, I engaged her at once, without enquiring as to her abilities or her recommendation. She won my heart at sight•and she has won my head since, for she is not only thorough in the perfor mance of her ditties, but executes them with a taste and judgment I had never - seen excelled by any matron. If the day is cloudy when you enter the parlor, you will find . that she has so disposed the win dow hangings, that the most will be made of the sunlight ; if it is sunny, she will so arrange them that a gentle twilight seems to shadow you. She is, indeed, a perfect artist in the arrangement• of everything, studying and combining effeet and comfort. I feel with you that her lot has not always been so lowly, but there is a certain re spect that she inspires in one, that forbids close questioning. I incline to the °fin ion that she and her mother have been sorely pinched for means, and that finding needlework . an inadequate compensation, she has. chosen to work out, as by that .means, while she earns more a week, she. saves her board from out their scanty in ' come and has time to . . rest. But here is papa and herself with the tea.' As soon as they were fully seated, and the'oups had been passed, Mrs. Summers turned gently .to the maid, as she , waited beside her chair, and said, in a low tone, 6 we shall need nothing more at present,' Quietly, but with visible pleasure, she withdrew ; and as the door closed on her, Herbert exclaimed:. Thank you, sister, for sending her away. I could not have borne to see so ladylike a • creature _wait upon me: It 'Seemed' clownish in me to sit for a moment while she was standing. In good- tooth,if I had so fair, a maid, I should be 'demotiritie enough to ask her to eat with, me. And thus wound her self-respect. No, brother, she has chosen for, some good reason her menial lot, and I can see would prefer to be so regarded. All . I oan' do, till I can farther win her oonfidenee, is to make _her Andes as little galling as rad ble,:',4t4.ctokne,'llo some of' rAW4MIRUiI; -1 ! . /714LT,..00 • 4. . •I 4.•. t; . .

The housemaid was not alluded to: again till an hour after _tea had passed, when George, the eldest of the family, a bright but, somewhat capricious boy, of twelve, rushed into the sitting 7 room, exclaiming eagerly.: 4 . Mayn't Ellen stay to to-night, mamma, and go oat to-morrow evening Certainly, if she Cheeses, my son.' 4 But she don't choose, and that's the trouble. I want her to stay, and she says she can't because her mother will be so . =ions. about her.' 'But why do you . : wish her to stay . George? You certainly have no command of her or her time. Pray, what do you want she should do?' Why, I wani her to show me hoW to do those horrible hard sums in the back part of the arithmetic, and I want her to tell me how to conjugate that awful irreg ular French verb, alley—l wish it would alter into France where it belongs—and I want, her to hear my Latin and—' 'Turn into a school-ma'am, after toiling as maid all day. • No, George, no—l have been very grateful to Ellen or the assis tance she has shown you in your studies, but I cannot allow her leisure hours to be so sorely invaded,' interrupted his mother, while her brother held up both hands in much amazement; for, to tell the truth, since he had seen the maid, he was pre pared to believe everything wonderful of her, and would not have been surprised. to hear that she knew as many tongues as Burritt himself. Verily,' said he gaily, this passes all —a housemaid, and hear your Latin les sons I What else does she know?' Everything,' said George, earnestly. She can talk French better than mon sieur, and la belle Italian tongue—oh, how sweet it is to hear her read and sing it ! I tell you, Uncle Herbert, she knows the most of any woman I ever saw, and if you was a knight of olden times, you'd do battle for her beauty, and rescue her from the slavery of that old despot, pov erty !' and the boy's eyes flashed; and he drew himself proudly up, as 'though he would have grown a man that moment and shown his prowess. Bravo, George!' exclaimed his uncle. She needs no more valiant knight than her youthful page promises to be. Should your right arm ever be wounded in the defence of your queen of beauty, advise me of it, and I'll rush to the rescue.'— The words were lightly spoken, but there was a meaning deeper and more divine involved in them than the speaker would have then oared to own, even to himself. The boy went to his lonely lessons, the front door closed on Ellen, little Nell was snug in the snowy conch whither the maid had borne her with kisses and music tones, and then Mr. and Mrs. Summers and the brother went forth to the brilliant ball room. But with all its light, splendor and gaiety, it had no fascinations for Uncle Herbert. His thoughts were with that beautiful girl, who had come so like an angel to the household of his sister, and when at an early hour he withdrew, and gaining his couch, threw himself upon it, it was only to dream of tournaments and visored knights and queens of beauty, and the loveliest of them all', and the one that crowned his brow with the unfading laurel, wore the same peerless face as did Ellen .the housemaid. * * Mrs. Summers had rightly conjectured the reason why one so gifted had become a menial, though not for many weeks did she learn the whole story. It was briefly this : The father of Ellen, Mr. Seymour, had been a prosperous merchant in a neighboring city. Wedded to a lovely woman, wealth flowing in upon him with a heavy current, a beautiful child to sport on his hearthstone, life for some years glided by like an airy dream. All the riches of his own and his young wife's heart were lavished upon Ellen, and as she grew up lovelier in person than even her infancy had proinised, so she grew beautiful in mind and soul the idol of the family altar. She was in her eighteenth year when the first blow struck them—the long and fearful illness of the husband and father. A mere wreck of himself, physically and mentally, he was at length piononneed convalescent, though perfect' health, the physician said, could only be bartered for in a sunnier clime. They sailed at once for Italy. A year had been passed in that beautiful land, a delicious and eshilirating one to them all, for the step of the invalid had grown steadier each moment, his eye wore its wonted brightness, his oheeks their glow, and the pride of mind sat again enthroned upon the noble brow, when, like a thun derbolt from a: cloudless heaven, there fell the second blow. The mercantile house, in which he was head:partner, had failed —ay, and failed in snob a way that,,though innocent as a babe, his name was covered with infamy. It was too much for the spirit not yet strong. Poverty it could have borne, bat disgrace shivered it en tirely. He lay for some mopths in hope less lunacy, never raving, but only sighing and moaning, growing each day paler and weaker. But he passed not so away.— When the last hour of life drew near, his darkened soul was light, again, and he tenderly counselled the - two dear ones who had hung over him 'so faithfully, and bade them to be of good cheer, for though wealth was gone, the unspotted honor of the husband and father should be yet shown to the world. Then' 4 1 0 inifitiding. them to the All , Father, with_ -hand clasped by each, their sweet voices blended in holy 'Lyme, he paSsed awn. ' A grave was hollowed out for him on blassio ground, and the .snowy marble .wreathed.' with, affeetion's chaplets a f*S - w times, and' than sadly the mourners: turned away, almond ship bearing them to their native land. Where were the crowds that had flocked about them as they left ita shores I Alas ! the widow and her Ail& found none of them.

But the song of the shirt was Soon the only , one! they could Sing. - Night brought no rest to the , weary day, and though twenty, instead of the twelve -hours ''of the Bible were spent in toil, they were famished and frozen. 'Mother,' said Ellen, one evening, as the hour of midnight found them still at work, thisis ,too much for woman. I ...shall sow, no longer.' Bat what will .yottAtt, darling l' and Mrs. Seymour wept over her pale, thin face • shall we starve l'" Mother,' there was resolution in the tone now; mother,. I shall hire out as houseinaid ; don't attempt to dissuade me, my mind is determined. It is as honora— ble as this-4 shall earn as much, if not more than now ; I shall save ,my board ; shall have;my nights for rest,' She 'plead ed` till she,won at last a tearful consent, and entered the service of Mrs. Summers. • * • * * 70 His sister's house had 'always 'heeti a second home to Herbert Lincoln, bat now it seemed deare'r than ever. Their tea table, in partioular, - sebmed to have a fas (mad= for lam, and at the end of a fort night, he had-sipped so many cups of Ellen's fragrant tea, that Mrs. Summers declared she should certainly present him a bill of board. And though in all that time he had not exchanged a dozen senten oes with the beautiful maid, it was, but too evident she was the magnet which attracted him. Business now took him out of town, and three weekti elapsed ere he . ere he returned, As lie was hastening from • the depot, turning a corner, ho espied, coming as it were to meet him, the fair girl of whom he had dreamed every night of his absence,. and beside her, little golden-haired 'Nell. Uncle Herbert,' cried the child, and embraced him passionately. Oh, I'm so glad you've come home. Wa,missed you so much. Then freeing himself from her arms, she said, graoefully, and here is dear Ellen, tao, aint you glad to see her again Ellen blushed, btit the young man so courteously extended his hand to her that she could not refuse it. .I. am happy to see Miss Seymour en joying this beautiful day,' said he in low gentle tones as respUetfully as if addressing a queen. And I am happy to see Mr. Lincoln looking so well,' responded the lady, with a quiet dignity, and she passed along. But where are you going, little niece V said Herbert to Nell, detaining her a mo ment. Oh, to see Grandmamma Seymour, she is a sweet lady, too. Ellen took me there once, and it made me so happy that mother lets me go now whenever she does,' and . she tripped away. Herbert walked rapidly to the first i3or ner, then turned and deliberately retraced his steps and followed the two,_ till he learned the street and number of Ellen's home. 1::1 That night as he carefully examined his bureaus, it occurred to him that his supply of linen was quite too deficient, and forth with he purchased a goodly sized parcel of the raw material, and at an early hour the next day was knocking at the door of the dilapidated house whioh he had seen Ellen enter. Through vaultlike halls, and up rickety stair-cases he wended his way, till he found Mrs. Seymour's room. The beautiful and saintly face of the widowed mother fascinated him as completely as had the daughter's, and with a reverential tone he opened his errand. Whiie she expect ed the linen, and made inquiry as to the particular way he would have it made up, his eye glanced eagerly over the room. The exquisite taste of the housemaid was visible everywhere. Geraniums and roses smiled in the winter sun-beams that crept so lovingly into the narrow casement ; the white muslin that draped them hung in folds graceful as snow wreaths ; pencilings as rich almost as mezzotints, hung upon the walls i the rockers were cushioned with rose oolorefl muslin ; bits of cloth gorgeous in hue as autumn leaves, woven into mats, relieved the bare floor of its scanty look •, a guitar leaned under the tiny mirror, and a few costly books were scattered in an artist-like way hither and, thither, wherever the rambling eye would - wish to see pinned some beautiful thing. This is Tuesday,' said Herbert ; can I have one by Friday V i Oh, yes, sir, and sooner, if you desire 'Not sooner, unless you steal hours from, the night, and your weary looks seem even now to say that .you have done so' It is the lot of the seamstress,' said the lady calmly but sadly. The young'man could not trust his voice to reply, and• hastened away. In his office he gave way to his feelings : She, the beloved and the beautifuLtoiling in menial service, and that angel-like mother sewing for her living. It shall lie so no longer. Thank God for Hales,' and he seized his pen and inscribed these words on a slip of paper, an honest debt die your husband,' he enclosed bank notes for five hundred dollars, and addressing the envelope to Mrs: Seymour, of street, dropped it into the post office. Could he .have seen the grateful tears that stole down the widow's cheeks, and heard her soul-touching prayers, as she received it that evening, he would have realized the full force of the teat, ' It is more blessed to give than•' to receive' I Oh, that it were Ellen's evening at home,' said she ; thank Heaven, I may haie her ell.to myself, .again. With. this Om hi band, we can be comfortable, with mit tasking ourselves as severely as here- Wore. My beautiful child shall be no longer a menial.' .4 11 PitientlY the gwutedFridsy evening, for then Ellen went& oniely be wit 4 r @IMM apm. • -.tha eve mune and- t, and she was left alone c A sadden and severe illness- had attacked'Abs.'•Bunimers, and when • Herbert ••mitered on the evening, of the sameday he had' bent the .go*crous gift, he ; found it fall Of, sorrel - . The, physicians only shook„ their heads sadly, when asked if there wasp any hope,- and .when -the 'loving - -ones gazed- on the 'white' fate or the - hick one and marked the "intensity 'of : ber t yigbny, thei tittitsf,aaray with fainting hearts:. Now, the' fill 'beauty of, the honsemaidli charaoter was developed. Instinetively, they gave: up- all to ker.— She - diZeoted the -- attendants,c she soothed little Nell, curbed the wild grief of George 'and - spoke Ise sweetly to tbe mourning hus band 'aiid brother, that the 'spirit pf.faith seemed 'in their.midst. ito the eifik,womin she was, in , irery, truth ministering angel. No :hand ,so softly wiped her brow, so tenderly bathed:the aching limbs, so gently rubbed the -cramped fingers, so deftly smoothed the pillows, so strangely' , sweet ened ,tho' healing draught, brought such cool driiikei to the hot.lips, and.such deli,. pious, food to the starved .palate. Her presence seemed to beautify the sick room. Under her loving ministrations, it asstnited a beauty that was: almort „divine. None kneiv whether it might ke the gate to Par adise or to a hrighter life on earth, but all felt that whether the path of the pale one was heavenward or here, it was flower -crowned. Day -after' day, and night after night, found the fair mine' beside her patient. Paleness gathered on her cheeks and lips, but the same sweet smile played there ; lassitude quivered on her lids, but the same hopeful look beamed from the eye ; the limbs . trembled with ~weariness, yet obeyed the faintest'whisper from the couch. The physicians looked in wonder that one so delicate held out so long under such heais tasks, and whispered one to another, Under God' she is the healer' • And when the crisis' came, : when Mrs. Summers lay there so cleat* that only by pressing a mirror to her lips the fluttering life Could be 'seen at all, when husband, brother,:children and friends had stolen softly away, unable longer to restrain their cries, that young girl tarried still, motion less„ almost breathlesi,' silent her prayers going upward. Oh, how dear she was to them all when again she appeared in their midst, and said in her own low, sweet music -tones, You may hope. Bless you, bless you, faithfal one ! ' exclaimed Mr. Summers, as he wound his arms around her. Henceforth, you are" one of the treasures of our household, the sister of my adoption. Come hither, Nellie and George, and thank her., Under Heav en, you owe to ha' your mother's life.'' Little wet faces were pressed to hers, and passionate kisses Brought fresh roses into her cheeks. Then a manly hand, oh, how its pressure thrilled her nerves, grasped hers, and a full, rich voice murmured, our angel, sent by God.' On a bright and glorious morning, in the month of roses, a splendid equipage' drove from the city mansion of Mr. Sum mers. It held a family , party, the wife and mother still pale, her convalescence' sadly retarded by the fearful illness that had smitten her two idols ; George and Nellie, puny, though out of all danger ; the lovely Ellen, no longer maid, but I cherished angel of hope and love, thin and vibite, too, with her winter and spring's nursing ; Mr. Summers, his fine face all aglow with chastened joy and Herbert Lincoln, looking, as though a lifetime of happiness was crowded into a moment. It was the first long drive the physicians hid permitted the invalids, and they knew not, where they were going, at least none but Herbert. Ellen had declined going at first. I have seen my mother so little of late,' said she, gently, I think I must spend the holiday with her. But they said no, and promised, if she would go with them, then, they would leave her with her mother on their return, and she should stay without limit of time. How lovely she- looked, as consenting at length, she came to the carriage in her summer array. Herbert thought he, had never gazed on so exquisite a maiden in all his life, and longed with a frenzy he had never felt before, to fold her to his heart; the shrine which had been sacred to her from the first moment of meeting. 6 What a lovely home !' exclaimed Ellen, as leaving the main road, they branched off into a splendid avenue, lined with graceful elms, and came in sight of a small but elegant mansion, draped with rose-vines, and embowered in rare shrub bery. 4 I trust it holds happy hearts.' 4 Yes said Lincoln, warmly, that it does, and we will to-day share their joy, for it is here we are to stop.' Joyful ex clamations burst from them all. It seemed like a beaming of light in fairy land, that beautiful place, to those senses so long pent up in the chambers of sickness. They were ushered into a parlor that seemed the abode of the Graces, so char mingly were beauty and utility blended. A moment they waited ere the rustling of satin announced the approach of the lady, to whom they were making so unceremo nious a call. She entered and in a second Nellie Summers was clasping her round the neck. Grand-mamma Seymour, the fairies did come to you, as yiin told me last week perhaps they Would sometime. Oh, lam so glad. Mr. and Mrs. Summers stepped forward and'greSped her hand . ; but Herbert and 'George, where were they l A scream from. Nellie announced them. Pale and pas siouldss Ellen lay in their arms. She had not seen her mother, but her eyes had caught sight of a small Greek -harp in a pillared niche, her own father's gift, and sold by her whett they-left that proud city of scorn. Memories sd many andt sad had unstrung her nerves. Joy seldom kills, though.. When awakening fromler swoon, she met the, tearful eyes of her mother, she felt assured there was some blest mys tery to be told. It was all soon explained. Herbert anik , Mrs. Seymour had :become fast friende m the past winter, r ii 4 e- had cheered the lonely hours of Ellen's ab sence—he had learned_ her story and as sured -himself ' that foal wrong. had been done het husband.

Ellen was gone. ' They caught, . however, a glimpse of .white.muslin, in the green shrubbery, and she was followed, not by both; thou,gb.; Mrs. Seymour had, ituised, risen; but a sadden thrilling pulse in her warm heart oheskad her, and she resumed har-seat. - - Herbert. hastened` out mid. found her under the Shadow aim old eldi k on abed of moss,.with her lap, full of rosebuds.
