IMI 1 ,11081 OF,EIHAIICIN; It Was a dull time Wall street one sultry afternoon in ,Angtst.— Business was over for the day, but Emmerson still lingered his office, perhaps because , no pleasant home called him away.'

Yet no evidence of 'exultation was visible in his appear ance, any farther than giving the lit ! f tle flower - girl who daily brought her chOicest bouquets, to the wealthy broker, a double Price for her roses '---he• was guilty of no departure from his usual methodical ways. If any man in Wall street bad cause for satisfaction and self-congratula tic" it was Mr. Emmerson, when he remembered the struggles by which h 0 attained his, present commercial eminence. It was well-known among. his acquaintances, that not many years before he had returned penm less to his native city after a short residence in Europe, which had prov ed neither creditable i nor profitable. He was no Inispathrope; but a cloud of care or sorrow seemed - to-hang around his happiest . moments, and although his constant reserve secured him - from the intrusions of the Can ons, rumor had generally assigned an unhappy marriage as the cause ; bid, beyond that of speculation so dety bad no resource.

'His whole manner seemed altered, and young Mr. Waltman, in tent upon his own Itroubles interpre ted the change as angering ill for his cause. "Mr. Emmerson," 'Harry inter rupted hastily, " I will detain you but au instant, yet I cannot let you leave me, uncertain of 'your opinion of the course ought to take in this affair.

"No, Harry, I do not; see that you could be expected to refuse such tempting proposals . ; not every, young man has- such at his dispesal. The fortune is of course trifling in com parison With other considerations ; but Harry," and Afr.

If Harry Waltham, With the elas ticity of a youthful nature, buried his troubles in the sweet oblivion of slumber that night., he was more for tunate than hi friend. Long after the stones in the street below ceased tif echo the footsteps of the passing crowd, Mr. Eminetson paced his lone. ly room. The iptidents of the after noon had disturbed his thoughts from their usual quiet. course, and now, after hours of struggle, he still bat tled with an army of long, buried hopes and affections ;—each bitter ness and transgression of the Twit standing forth like an. aCcusing foe.

The canvass bore two figures. - A. woman, young and lovely, hut little beyond girlhood.; a roguish smile encircled her small per fect inouth i _but a' tender light in her violet eyes, as she gazed upon tbu dimpled laughing child in her arms,. It was diffiCult to recognize the im perturbable broker, in this sad agi tated man, over whom these pictures possessed Ruch painful but irresisti ble fascination. The t long yeais of the past, which he had so jealously guarded from , plying eyes, memory; with "unsparing hand spread plainly before him, and after years of repen tance, it was more than he. could bear unmoved: When Mr. Emmerson warned' Har ry of the solemnity of marriage, his mind was full of the metnory of his own siiffering ; and he feared to see' his friend place his happiness in the hands of a young and undisciplined girl. Very like Harry Waltham had . Mr. Emmerson been ten years ago.— At that time he was the unrestrained master of his own destiny, and also a liberal fortune ; well calculated by his, generous, unsuspicious nature, to become the tool of craftiness and design. Three yeara of student life in Paris and Germany was fast cor rupting him,, teaching him reckless ness and desperation, when his heart was taken captive -by Helen Riving ton, a pure and lovely girl; the daughter of an English clergyman. Front ihat,tlmehe led-a different life; forsook his gay companions, and fill-, ed with honor those 1, positions for which nature he was ein well, qualified. 'He became the kind son of the aged clergyman, the devoted husband, and the tender father of the little girl he fondly called his ',Pearl:, Four years of 'happiness passed in .the quiet foreign town where they lived, when Mr. Rivington was gath ered to his fathers, and Mr. Emmer son resolved to travel with his wife and child. They settled at Paris for the winter, and tgere occurred the. er rors he had now to repent._ - _ _ In the happiness of his married life he had forgotten the exciting, pleasures of former days, or sup posed the taste which • craved them supplanted by one of purer nature ; that itenly slumbered to burst forth. again upon the renewal of familiar scenes acquaintances, was not the evidence of a depraved heart, but the stirs Which ,a course of trans gression and waywardnees invarisa bly leaves. Helen was conscious of a change in her husband, but her: pore, refined nature could" have no empathy with his temptations,, and she met:his , excuses and apOlogies with coolness and reproach: , Each day:hicrealed the estrangement, and One night .When - Helen, unable to sleep, awaited her husband's , return, he was brought home' ineeneible, flushed ,With wine, rind-, wounded 'in a duel over a French actress, who brought him in her carriage, andthenl hurigirOtind' his; bed, weeping.and, wringing her . hands. gelen stood' , motionlesei gazing tirt:'with- an'ach, ill heart, but when the actretui, with n tirallkindness, would have poured ont her.explanations ,ane pity, ; slip; pushed her awarlika itomething clingy trend ,gathering up her skirtsi •sWept froth the room. e She was told, her husband's. wound , - was _A - rifting, that he would soon • recover, and; waiting' to bear - io-mere, ihe fled- Witkbet Child, 'leaving no4radet of hit , ca l ves- 1•2 . .

The delightful freshness of the wan try scenery !maths braciugmonntakt. air were invigorating to the city busi ness mon,who saw so little of nature; his Opiritt rose-rapidly, and when the little village ofSharon was reached, which lay basking in the mudifht blissfully, 1111Cpnaolons. of anideingn upon iterpeacefulness,he felt equal to the performance of any task,however difficult. ;Just enough of diy remain ed, for Mr. Enimerson to acquaint himself with.the location of the prin. oipal features of the place, including of course the young hidift' seminary. A conversation with mine host of the hotel, made him fomiliar with moat of the residents of the. place. • Pretty Rose Lawrence had reopivi ed due notice of Mr.. Emmenron's tended arrival, and when thatgentle.' man. sallied forth the next morning; it ehort walk brought him in contact With a young , lady to.whom the en counter was no surprise. But even ' the pretty face.of *Rose did not re : vent him from gazing in a p eager way 'upon the little - girl Who accompanied her. It was the way we often gaze upon a face which re- ' 1 call - lost or absent'lriend.. lkose was puzzled by his abstraction • heir fearful of mistake, she ' advanced to meet him, the color flattering in , and out. of her cheeks. . • "I cannot be ;mistaken, I think.--: YOu are my father's, friend, •Mr. Eta !tureen," she said,- timidly. "Quite right ; and you are,or rather were, my little friend Rose? Mr. Eta mason returned,,with sincere pleas-. ere at. the meeting,loOking downwith something of tenderness. upon 'the 'pretty girl _ ha had promitied toybefrieml in such a ptrange way. "I remember -too. well the happy when I was your little Jose,and searched your pockets for the bonbons your were sure to bring me," she re plied tears welling up in her dark eyes. "And you will be the same kind friend now, Mr. limnerson,when. I have= no dear father to guard- and protect me. Will you not ?" she ask ed, prettily. He ,pressed her little hiuttl_ kindly, atisivenng in, his quaint wayalthugh his heart was tender for the orphaned girl; "I cannot refuse my little friend , her wish, though she - itakedine for a husband instead of bon bons,' he ad ded, softly. She was a blushing Rose by this time,answering him only by the tears ip her dark eyes. .• "Maggie," she said, after a - mo. merit, addressing the child to whom Mr. Emmexsoies eyes wandered fro. nen t ly, "do you not. want .to buy (me carom* at the confe ' ctioner's ? ur box is quite empty, I think, I - will wait for you at the corner."
