I left hiM busily arranging a chest - of car

What will yOnsay, g matter-of-fapt rea

girl he had•never seen- - -- , of Whom he knew
nothing,. almost.
Yet he did. :I • • . - -
, , Quite naturally, the ereetion of the cor
nice progressed, but sloWly. The Master
carpenter wondered at it ; .but Jack assur- -
efi Min; every morning, that it would take
him only a day or tivo longer.
.
.
One day he found an essay on musk,
'written in the game , iite, feminine hand -
which he had go often seen and 'admired:
on the marginel of books, and .other man
uscripts in the chamber. This essay, un
finished, and lying exposed on the portfol
io could not belprNate; so Jack, grown
impertinent to[the last degree, laid down
the saw that he had Unconsciously brought-
With him, and taking a seat in a cushioned
arm chair, perused the writing carefidly.
It was well. expressed and financial; but
1 the fair writer ;had made a slight mistake
whieh"Jack detected at once. Suffice it,
that the young lady had confused the laws
1 Which govern Melody and harmony, and
!Jack wished devoUtly for an opportunity
ito set her _right.,. • - .
1
Just at this jimetUre, the dooi opened,
and his ticeasc incinvnti entered. -
Figure to yourself a young girl, say of
. nineteen or twenty, whose every lute and
contour bespoke grace and health ; whose.
Peach tinted cheeks; bright blue eyes, and
lips, like tlre inaerfold of some tropic shell,
I told of vivacity; freshness and .purity of
spirit. Her- hair . was__ of that. - peculiar,
rare shade 'of brow n ; bst described,- per
haps, as wood eolor—a mingling of , ashy
and golden tintS7--and tell in tangled mass

She did noffaint or .scream when she

eyes, hesitated ; 0 a montent,.and said,- delib

" \ell, sir ! »

l • " What do yOu wish, sir; ?"
Jack was put to his trumps. ,
I "I wished tai See what kind of-divinity

" Cer - tainly,'T.said Jack, 110 W in the full
enjoyment of the thing ; " I will go halite
diat el v • but- y'pp most - pardon me one
- ,
I word„—l wish to explain a trifling question
lon which you'del not seem quite 'clear.
Harmony in music, is that Which appeals
to the intellectual ficulties-the reasoning
purtion of the 4oul. Melody, on the con
; trary, appeals to the affections, or pas-s
-' ions." ,1
The voung girl drew back, and looked
at dad: in alarm.
" No'said divining her suspicion,
1" I ant-not crazy; I have taken the liberty
•of readil.- your essay, here. In it, you
, . .
say, "Edneatir alone can refine and in
tensity our pereeption of. melody." You
•-should have said - 'of harmony ;', for - that
rules the brain, which organ is especially
susceptible to the influence of education.
Melody is lordli of the heart alone; and
you mademoselle, ought to be aware that
the heart cannot be taught, either in mu
sic or in love."i
"Sir," she stlid," . l . do not know ofyour

your intrusion here is very—very—"
"Yes, I knOW—very audacious and in-. 1
pertinent. I a l cknowfedge that; but you

room to replace some papers that were lia

was no harm inthat ;lint once inside, the
air ofelegance;land . cultivation exhibited
here at t ract4l.lme inexpressibly. Doubt
less you have observed that one's sttrround

- to be pleased with the carpenter, despite
his - Sbirt, sleeves and papereael.
I The .conversation proCeeded; Jack
proved' to the fair essayist that she was.in

I her by the depth of his thought ; the vari
