with tears at. this parting from all she

Her father's greeting was cordial and tiff-.

which awaited her elegant and even sump

fashionable part of the city, and an obse
(lions and obliging landlady. But she
looked is loft this eombaritive splendor with
a mind ill at ease: From whence came the
means which procured it?, The remains
of her mothers fortune Were long ago dis
sipated. His associates , to whom Howard
proudly introduced her as his daughter,
.would of themselves have solved this ques
tion. Bearing the unmistakable eviden
ces 'Of good finnily _and . high breeding,
there were traces of disipation and vice
even, which made the simply and purely
reared country girl shrink from such soci

Anxiously she revolved in her mind for
gome 'means Of 'escape from the paint'ul
situation into which she had thrown h`er
self: Then, it was the only way left open
for departure from seenes•heneforth _un

her-the fallacy, of this. She wondered even

But what could she do ? An education

and the future not less cheerless.
' Should she accept her father's now

It is one of my dearest wishes, Emily,
to see you provided for,".said Mr. How
ard, at the close of a long. and unwelcome
conference,' "To Sir Ralph Annensly you
can havt nu reasonable objections. he is
a little wild—granted, but not more than
many young metrof his years and position.
And let me add," he continued, in. a slight=_
ly softened tone, " what has often been
present in my.thonghts, that in the event
of my (lath you . would be left destitue
and unprotected."
"Believe me, lAm sen sible.ofiall your
kindness," she returned with firmness.
" But I can never marry Sir Ralph, who,
'indeed never•spoken to me upon the
subject. Let me remain With you for the
present ; dear &tiler, and I pray you•to
put Away all matrimonial projects from
my future."
Vet"' - welcome to Emily at that moment
was the bell, which announced a visitant,
and they separated.
A few days after this conversation, Sir
Italith found the oppOrtunity he had for
sometime been 'seduously seeking. Mr.
Howard was absent that evening, and,
Emily was alone in the drawing-room
when he was announe,ed.' There was no
retreat, and he rose with tolerable gra
cioimetis to receive him. ' , •

they were. seated in quiet coriVersation,
he began Upon the subject uppermost in
his thought., by ati ardent and passionate
avowal. _ •
Emily listened with embarrassment and
aversion. Something in that speech,
guarded, as it was; • thrilled her with ,a
sudden start of surprise and indignation,
but - she felt it impossible that she could.
have understood aright:
• " I thank you: for the honor you would!
do me," she said quietly; "which I'mustl

Nay, hear me 'out," he continued, as-she
strove to speak.: "If it be your wish, if

A strong hand-upon his shoulder tOrced
him 'to release his gra,'V, He turned to
find himself face to lime with Nr.; How.

The two regarded each other fiercely.

lOnly oiie word she ventured as he
Was leaving the house, and that was
that - he would norpnnish Sir Ralph's in

The day wore away heavily, with the
dread orimpending evil, which she knew
herselrpowerless to prevent.. .
Too soon were her fears realized. That
&ening sliewatched in vain for her

midnight, and the gray dawn of twilight
found her at the fruitless vigils.
The breaktlist lay spread, uktasted,
upon the [table, and , with restless steps
she moved forth and back through the

rano., and the servant ushered in an early
visitor.. How ea gerly she stepped for

his face told her the tidings that he
brought.
"Mvilither!" was all she could sac. •

'"I pray you be composed, .Miss How

'regret to:say, is under arrest. An affray

"And my poor father?" `,
'" Desired me; when the officer arrested

examination will be delayed until the na
tUre'of Ralph's injury is proved. I will call

arid offertny 'services in whatever may be

!She thanked him earnestly, and he took
hiss leave, proinising, at her request, to see
on the morrow. The worst was re
lieved, but the painful occurrenee brought
a certain calmneSs and resolution to bear,
and to act, if need be. .Well indeed if
She were prepared for all!
The morning paper brought before the
arrival of Mr. Leeson the announcement

'ofour country, the aggressive-policy which
he and his party are understood to rep
resent. But while.] say this lam bound,
as a good citizen and law-abiding man,
to. declare my conicientions conviction
that the mere election of any man to the
Presidency by the American people, in
accordance with the _Constitution Wand
laws,. does not of itself furnish any just
canew or reasonable ground for dissolving
the Federal Union.
- It is not pretended, so far as 'I am in
formed, that any provision of the Consti
tution has been violated. in the recent
election. No act has been done which
impairs the constitutional rights-of any
State or citizen. N6thing has yet occtir z
red to release any . citizen.from:his - Oath
of fidelity to the 'Constitution of the Utii: ,-
tetl States, 'which is the supreme law of
every State and of every citizen. But
While It is - conceded that no act has been
done which impairs the right or endangers
the peace and safety of any portion of our
country, it is apprehended that the elec
tion of Mr. Lincoln carries with it the as
fiuratice that the policy and- principles of
the party by which he was elected will
preail, and be -carried into practical ef
fect in every department of the-Federal -
GtNennent, and thereby will endanger
the peace and safety of the • slaveholding .
States. Is this apprehension well founded'
Do the results of the recent election justi
fy-this apprehension, The President can
r,lo nothing except what the law author- .
izes. His duty rs to see the laws-Elithfulfy
executed. If he fag to perform this duty
he will soon find himselfa Prisoner before
the high court of impeachment. Fortu—
nately that tribunal is so constituted as
to command the confidence of the people
of the entire. South, as well es the con
servative of men ef the North. ;We hive
! this security that th‘e existing laws will be
faithfully executed. I have yet to learn
that the people of the South complain of
the acts of. Congress now on the statute
book, upon the subject of slavery, as ap
plicable to the States or Territories, or to
the District of Columbia. These. laws
were enacted, mainly, if not entirely, by!
the joint action of the conservative mem •
-
bers of the North and SOnth, in oposition
to the Abolitionists and Free Sollers,,and
have been acquiesced in- tty the .Simthem
people, as well• as by their Senators and
Representatives, under the present and.
preceding administration - the Federal
oovernment. ConseqUently, it is fair to.
presume that the South, so far from de
manding the repeal" of the existing laws.,
upon th e e subject of slavery as essential to
her safety and equality in the Union,. will
insist Upon their being retained upon the--
statute book andfsithfully executed. Nor
are we permitted to infer that the South
ern people require. any additional legisla.
-lion by Congress on
_this subject, for the
reason that the Southern Senatort• ' and
Representatiies have not ; introduced and'
advocated any changes in the existing
legislation upon the slavery question .nte
der the present Administration,. and that •
Pierce, when the Abolitionistli and '
Free Sellers were in, the Minority in both
Houses of Congreis. •
Assuming, therefore, that the Southern
people and, their Senators and Representa
tives deem their rights and Institutions
ientirely safe'under 'the-Constitution and
lairs as they now. stead,' and only desire
'to be left alone, without any, interference
by Congress with their domestic coneeres„
the question arises whether Mr. Lincoln
and his party will have the power , even if"'
they . have the disposithin to disturb or
impair the institutions of the South-either
in the States or the Territories, er ia the
District of Columbia? They eertainlj !
cannot do it under the existing laws. Will `•
they-4%re the power to repeal or change -
those laws, or to enact others ? -It is well -
knoim that they' will be in a minority in:
both houses of Congress, with the [in-:-
prelim Court against them. In gift North
ern States there have been elected already
3 sufficient number of 'Denioeratin mem
bers of Congress, bold - and true national !
men, pledged to tbo Cincinnati platform
and the doctrine 'of non-intervention by
Congress with theAuestion of slavery in
the - .States and Territories and the Dis
trict of Coln:lbis, who, added to the
Southern Representative?, 'Will give at
least twenty majority agaiest - .Mr. Lincoln
and his part on , all these questions. In
the senate t here. is also a decided and re
jiablii majority.' Hence fnio bill can pass
