was disarranged, a curl there out of
place, and-the dress, in the morning
prouteed so perfectly au fail, was'
not, near so pretty by candle light as
she had thought.
" Nay, Nina, dear, look here," ec
claimed Mrs.)!llamiltun, leading her
to a mirror, in which her lovely form
and lace were , reflected ; " now one
smile, Nina, and there will be noth
ing wanting."
The tone and manner were irresis
tible. The April cloud passed away,
and the bright sunlight of a smile
gave new beauty to h . er sweet face.
A sigh escaped Mrs. Hamilton as she
gazed on her daughter:, and a troubled
thought for a moment deadened her,
heart as the future -rose before her
but all was forgotten when she heard
the buzz of admiration which greeted
her entrance at the ball, and there
was naught but love and joy in the
glance which followed the fairy fig
ure that tripped so lightly through
the dance. 'Twas a brilliant assem
blage of beauty gathered together at
Mrs. Manvers', and lovelier than all
was Nina Hamilton. Admiration
followed her every step, smilt•s and
kind words
,greeted the lovely heiress,
anti her beautiful lips parted lint to
enchain listening audience. Her
mother watched her• with. eyes :to
which 'only a mother's love c•oflhl
give that expression of proud joy.
and every ; gigh for her dangliter's
w:lful temper was, liTrotten and
•hushed as she gazed.
•• Melville," exclaimed a deep, full
voice, •c who is that be,uitil•ul crea

" Where? " inquired the person,'
aihlressed "direetly opposite:' That
is Nina I I amilton. ii' she not. lovely ?"
" Beautiful. indeed'" said his clim
panipn, rather as if communing - with
his o wn thoughts. ^ Surely no..crea
etion of genius was ever inure fault-. 7
loss. But tell use, is she
as good as beautiful ?"

gaming -table, where in a short time
he made away with' the little be.had

Starvation seemed ,to stare them
in sic face, and there waS no alterna

But . ere any- arrangement could be
made, Mrs Munilton sank under the.
accumulation of misfortune, alid her
life was despaired of.
Then the woman shone in all her
strength in Nina's, character. Every
nobler and better feeling was exiled
into actiou.

energies which hair

duties, witlt : . a bewildering, glance of
astonishment.
A. year had passed ; it was a brill
iant evening in autumn that Niffa - sat
by her mother, yet an invalid, and as
in,r little lingers plied her needle

friend; "the_ daughter of the once
wealthy Hamilton. By some unfor

begemred,• and now maintains his
family in a comfortless dwelling
enough near by. But he is rich
enough, in the possession of such • a
daughter, for Nina,
from bein , g the
spoiled and petted heiress, has prov
ed the stay and comfort of the family.
Her mother. is an invalid, and Nina
i nurse, attendant, seamstress, and
all."

Falling in Love.
In man's life falling in love is a
revolution. It is; in fact, the one
thin!; that makes him man. The
world of
.boyhOod is strictly a world
of boys. Sisters, cousins, aunts,
mothers, are mixed up in the general
crowd of .barbarians that stand with
out the playgronntl. There are few
warmer - ior More poetic affections
than the chiValrous friendship of
school-fellows; there is_ no tru,er or
more genuine "worshii) than a boy's
worship of the hero of the scrim
mage or, the play-ground. It is a tine
world in itself, but it is a wonderful
ly'nai row and restricted world. Not
a girl may peep over the pailings.
Girls can't jump, or fag', out, or
pwann Up a tree; they have nothing
to talk about as boys talk ; they
Bever heard-of that •glorious - swipe of
old llrtiwn's ;, they are awful milk
sops ; they cry- and "tell mamma
.tufty are afraid of governess, and
of• a cow. It is iMpossible to con
ceive a creature more utterly eon
temptible in a-boy's eyes than a girl
of his, own age generally is. Then
in some fatal moment comes the revo-
lution. The barriir of contempt
goes down with 'a. crash.. Tile boy- -
ivorld.disappears. Brown, that god
of the play-grotind, is cast to the
owls and to the bats. There is a
sudden coolness, in the friendship
that` *as to hist . from the school to
grave s Paper ehaseK - and the annual
match witfilhel"ohl fellows" cease
to he the' highest objects of human
interest. There is leSs excitement
than there, was last year when a great
ebeee.weleolnes the news that Mu; by
as won - . the prize. The boy's life
as. become muddled and - confused.
'he old esistcnci is sheering off, and
th new comes shyly, fitthtly. - It is
only by a sort of compulsion that he
will own that he is making a " fuss"
ahout For the moment - he re
bels against the si ell of that one
little yaee, the witchery of that one
little hand. lie fingers - on the bord
er of this new country from whence
there is .no return to the old • •ing
