No one was within the room, but through the lace-draped windows I saw Lyndon's firm, resting agiiust a pillar of the porch. Rose sat beside him, in a low rustic chair She wore white ; something dainty and misty: and a.? I looked, Lyndon plucked a spray of cypress bl Kims, with their light feathery folitge, from the pililar, aud laid it gainst her hair ' ' I closed my eyrs and turned my face away. V. by ?. Was it strange that Lyndon Should love hi-J wife, and that wife Rose the qui en of true-hearted women I said my mind was clear. I knew then, for the first time, that I was wildly, m.tfily iu love with Rose w'uh Lyudou's Rose ! God knows I never meant it to be so. I tried to love them alike, as brother and sister. 1 had been so happy tinder the delusion that I had succeeded in doing so, and this was tbe end ! I groped my way to my room, wan dering if mnrderera were ever more con science smitten than was I. Lyndon had always been my friend a friend such as few can boast. Years before, he had saved me from a life of misery, and this was his reward. I looked out upon the warm, glowing landscape, and shivered as with cold. The river sparkled in the monl'ght. and brought me back a memory of the gip eey's prophecy I had loved but I was drifting still rocked -and dashed by tbe pitiless waves of a bitter, longing despa r. There was but one thing for me to do I must leave Maple River forever. I must go but wither T O, how dreary seemed tbe world to me then, how cold !

The touch of her hand her very presence, thrilled my soul and yet we were so far apart. 'Thank you." I said, at la.-t. I wailed. I was looking upon her fa.ee for the last time, perhaps.

Not a picture she bad touched, not a trifle which her deft hands had fa.-liioiied, not a flower which she had gathered. I do not mean that I was praiseworthy iu this, for it would have been torture. I only prayed that I might forget her, but forgetfulness never came. Lyndon often wrote me, and I answer ed when I could- One day when 1 opened a letter from him, two carl pho tograps fell from it; one o himself, and one of Rose. I was thankful for Lyn don's, and kept it near me always Rut the other ? 1 think to have looked twii e into those clear eyes would have driven me mad ! I could not keep it ; so I held it into the blaze of the lamp until it was consumed, and the flames had scorched my fingers, aud then smiled to feel the pain Months passed. I was growing thin and old. Nothing seem d to interest me. Lyudou's letters came but seldom and at last he wrote me of the death of his boy. My heart ached for him ; and I longed to be able to comfort him,, but I dared hot think of Rose iu her sorrow After a time another letter came, writ ten in a hand written in a hand so unlike Lyndon's of old 'I scarcely recognized it lie was very ill was dying. The phy j sicians gave him no hop 1 have been ill for a lone time;" he wrote, "and have learned submission Only for little Rose, I should be cou tent ; but it is so bard to leave her so alone." She will return to her home when I am gone, but she has neither father nor brother, and, sometime, may need your care. Of late 1 have fancied it was because you loved her you went away. If it were true I should be quite coutent, my dear true friend ! But whether I am right or not, you will, for my sake, aee she does not need a broth er's care when I am gone."'

Then T received a short note from a neighbor and mutual friend, telling me of Lyndon's death. He had received my letter, and unable to answer it. bade his friend to write me of his unaltered affection, and wishes for mv happiness. It was so like Lyndon my dear, tnte hearied boy J" and the tiding brought me ?ome degree of peace. I nv!e my preparations fo return to Maple River for Rose had left and the place needed my care. After I reached home I wrote to Rose, assuring her of my desire to be her fiieud, and she must not hesitate to call upon mo if she ever necderl my counsel. Her mother. Mrs. Dorr, answered the letter in a chatty and rirher effusive strain, thanking me for her daughter, and for herself, urging nr.- to call often at her bouse ; but never a word from Rose. Two years passed by. I had not availed myself of Mrs Porr's invitation; but one day, when I chanced to drive past her house, which was about ten miles distant from Maple River, an irre sistible desire to see Rose once more cam:' over me. So I stopped, and as ceuded the steps of the fine eld mausi-m which showed some signs of decay, though the grounds were neatly kept. 1 found Mrs. I'orr in the parlor. She was a well preserved lady of fifty and seemed to be a very practical sort of person. She sent up to Rose of my ar rival, aud then informed me, in a semi cotifi letiti.il way. lltat she bad persuaded her daughter lo lay aside mourning, and enter society once more 1 h 1 1 called ju-t in the right time, she said. Tln-re was a large company nf city friends in vited to Iter house fur the ra .nth of June Would I honor lier, nncl become her gueet also ? And bese followed num betloss ex-uses I'-tr the very plain man ner iu which they lived However, if 1 woul l come, they would endeavor to the best oi their ability to make it plea-ant for me. Here Rose en'.ere.l and inter rupted her mother's apnlogii s. K-vr tm tvrwnril nd jt.il.tlir guv. rai her h:id. I wondered if she remem hered my words when I held it in mine list. A little flush shot over her face, and there was a slight flutter of the white i yeliils, but that was all. She might hav been weleom ng the mere't acq'.i tivtanc", but for that. She sat near me an 1 commenced c inversation in the hi way, giaceliil aud quiet, though she did not speak of the past. Hefote I lelt. Mr Dorr renewed her invitation. I accepted fur a few days, and, according to promise, arrived at her h us about the middle of June. I found the place quite gay There was Mr. Algood, an elderly gentleman, who seemed very fatheily to the lemaiu d-T of the c mpany, tind very polite to Mrs. Dorr; Mr. Jierwick, a handsome and dashing widower of thirty five ; Agatha Rodney, as stately as ever, and almost as beautiful , and a lew other ladies and gentlemen, ordinary in appear ance, who served as excellent foils for the more brilliant members of ti e com pany. I soon began to fear that I had been too tardy in my arrival for Mr Berwick seemed absolutely fascinated with Rose, and was very marked in his attention t her. I fancied that Agatha di-liked him exceedingly. I had joined the company only that I miht have nn opportunity to wot Rise. I was an awkward lover, and, somehow, could never bring ahottt a single trrr a Mr ; while, Mr. Berwick who was always perfectly at ea-e, mo nnpolized her upon every walk or ride. After watching them for two or three daya. I became fully convinced that Rose loved him. I would have retu-n-ed to Maple River, but somehow, I could not. So I remained, and grew more and more desperate each day. . One evening, when I had listened to the pretty nothings which Mr. Berwick uttered for the amusement of Rse, 1 be came h ilf frantic with jealousy, and rushed out on the porch to sit in the moonlight alone. I waB scarcely seated. when I heard a fooistep, and Agatha Rodney stood beside me. "Don't look so forbidding !" she ex claimed, in a low tone, and glancing about to assure herself that no one was near. "You bate me ? ' And she sat down by my side. "I don't love you. So uo harm can come of this interview " I smiled a little in spite of myself ; I believe I admired tbe woman still and said, "Certainly not," in reply. Tou love Rose " she began. I started up. "There, don't confess it silliness ! Sit down! frvery one knows.it already. 'I like Mr Berwi.k " T "And luVwealth.'' I suggested. "Certainly," she cooly replied. "Yoo Observe, Mr. Castleton, how perfectly'we understand each other. Now he rational and jlon't interrupt me if I happen to WHOLE NUMBER 1326. wander from Rose ; I shall apeak of her in a moment ; some one may come out fJAf l" fjneioa . he is in love with t:'Se, hi .. ijw better.; He only l:k-f manner toward all gentlemen, and so he must, of course, wiu her to fall down and worship him.' "Rose loves him " I said. "I cannot tell, but I don't belie re it. This I do know. Mrs. Dorr is very anxir.is for Rose to marry." "But why T" "0, because she herself Is engaged to Mr. Algood, and a'ter their marring, which is to take place in the fall, Rose will be in the way You know very well how it is to have a third person in a family, for you tried it six months with Lyndon and Rose ' Don't fltich ! I know nothing of your experience except what I surmise. What 1 me an to say is this. If Mr. Bcrwictc asks Rose to be his wife, Mrs Dorr will surely urge her to accept him." "Whether R-ise loves hi;n or not ? ?utely. Rose would follow her own in clinations in the matter ! ' "I am no prophet at least where her action is connected. But we all kuow a faint heart uevcr conquers. Mr Ber wick likes me was on tho evo of a pro posal three , weeks ago. I kuow he is fickle, but it is bis worst fault." She flitted away, and I sat for some time pondering upon her words. At last I rose and reentered the parlor. "Mr Castleton," said Mrs. Pnrr, as I took my seat near Mr. Berwick am) Rose, "you have not heard of our ar rangements for to morrow. We pro pose a. ride. up to the summit of Mount IL'po., The roads are rough a part of the way, but the view from the top of tbe mountain is really grand." It is, indeed," I replied. "Bat will we not LCs-d to make some arrangement about ihc Wrriagea to-night?" Hardly,'' leturtied Mr. Berwick. ;,.Mrs. Dorr has a I.ir,e carriage, which will easily carry all but four of us .You and I each have our hore and lighter phaeton, and can take a lady apiece." "A very good arrangement," I ob served, carelessly. Agatha turned and looked me full in tbe face, but I did not need her warning. "Mrs. Authon " I continued, "will you honor me with your comr-nwa on4tl. trip V - I can hardly describe the effect which my words produced. Mr. Berwick sprang to his feet, but recovering him self sat down again A "wide mouthed smile ' showed itself upon Mrs Dorr's face, aud Mr. Algond's lips twitched sus piciously under his white mustache Agatha linked as though she would like to pat me upon the head, and the remain der of the company showed evident signs of surprise. Rose only smiled. "I shall be very glad to accompany you, Mr. t 'astb ton,' she said. Next morniiisf. quite eatly, we set out. I handed Rose into tbe carriage with a little feeling of pride, and as my bays were slightly restive, one of tbe la dies in Mrs. Dorr's carriage n quested that I should lead the way, as th". Whs rather timid. 'I readily consented, and away we sped. 1 be horses were fleet, but easily controlled by a firm hand, Mr. Berwick closely followed ns, and I was glad to see Agatha by his side Rose seemed to enjoy tbe drive, aud was al most giy. In about an hour we reached the sum mit of the mountain. Mrs. Dorr's car liage arrived soon afterward, and the whole party took seats nnder a spread ing tree, and discussed the beautiful view. The mountain was steep, though not very high, and its f.w.t lay a fertile va'ley. We rambled about for some time, enjoying t'ie breeze, for the day -was oppressively warm Our luncheon was scarcely . despatched, when heavy thunder-clouds began t form, some above and some almost beneaih us. . , We must return at once," said Mrs. Dorr, "and there is no time to loose Some of the horses may be afraid of thunder, and there is no place of shelter until we reach the base of the mountaiu." The ladies made all' possible baste to prepare for our return. Rose, quite rtady. stood by my side.' Mr. Berwick placed Agatha in bis carriage, casting nmiuocs glances toward Rose meanwhile i hen he came quickly forward. " "Rose," he said, abruptly; "Tbe -torm is about to break, aud as Sir. Cas iIetou's horses are unusually spirited, 1 li-ar they wilj become unmanageable when the thunder bursts. My own are very getitlo, and there is plenty of room for you in my carriage Return wilh me. wont you?' I dare not trust you with hitn " . They were watching ns from the other carriage I turned to Rose. I think my face was wbito. '"Mrs. Ambon must decide for herself," I said, coldly. Rose smiled and laid her hand upon my arm. "I am not afraid to go with yon, Tom," she said.

I cried, unable to hida my triumph. "If yoa have been. I'll ma teli yoa my darling !' And I stooped and touched her lip with mine before them all. Then I handed her to. to tho carriage, and bowing, led the way. The rido down the mountain was grand, for' the clou's were beautiful ; some seemed to scud before us, below our path. The forked lightnings flashed around tis, and the thunder was deep and loud. Thero was slight danger iu the situation, perhaps, but, shared to gether, the very peril was sweet and full of fasctnat'nn. I think we scarcely spoke during tbe ride I was too bppy for words, and as for Rose, her clear eye." had lost their hardihood, end drop ped before ray own. But I knew her heart was mine, and al! the biltcr crav ing agony of years was recompensed- After we reached home the ladies kissed and congratulated Rose I think they sobbed ov?r her a little and thee' Agatha asked their congratulations too. She seematLJiappyr paihapi. aha, was, truly eo. . I was too overjoyed to judge, her, even if I had tbe right. This was three years ago.

Medical and scientific authorities elate that there is an alarming increase m the demand for opium in the United States Last year the entire yield of Smyrna opium, ti e kind used in America and I'urope, was 500,000 pounds of which the United Stiffs took 2SC.00O poutids. An immense quantity cf opium is pro duced in India, hut it is of a poorer qual ity and is consumed mostly iu China. It is stated that the production iu Smyrna is growing less every year, so that there is a s rong probability thai the inferior Indian drug will soon be put into the market and sold as the genuine. Indeed there is strong reason to suspect that such is already the case. Any kind of opium is bad enough, but the substitution of that just mentioned for the Smyrna is as bad as discarding the best Otard brandy for the worst quality of strychniue whis ky. Opium eaters, beware! A Ohio paper tells the following: "Our sheriff. M. M.
