It.was his first sight of the. wolf that looks in upon the retreats of poverty, and troubles its life-springs at their fountain-heads, . *: But,Bve years afterwards, the cloud that hung upon their fortunes turned its silver lining out upon their sky. Elizabeth became the bride of ah eminent young' clergyman; the. family removed to the distant place of his residence; their good qualities held the respeot which his connection brought them, and, under- kindlier influences, the long looked for, and well earned prosperity flowed in upon them, and they are happy in the present, and as happily reconciled to the past.'

That earnest, gentle goodness of expression is in its simplicity.clear to every apprehension; clear to the simplest, and clearer still in propor tion io fad doptli of insight in- tho observer. Hts air-and utterances alike indicate a child like purity and manly excellence of, heart, pis hair 1/white as wool; ago is beginning to mark his form and poßturo with its impress, butsomethlng alive within him keeps his 'boy hood’s tenderness fresh as it was five and twenty years ago, when tho elect of his affec tions was taken from him in tho fail bloom of Jierbeauty. , Faithful fa all things, he is most feithfal to his affianced spirit-bride. The stu pid world around ascribes his strange constancy to a supposed.constitutional eccentricity. He hearsof his bachelorship every-day.in the mo notonous variety of witticisms which it invites, but keeps his secret sacredly; and is happy that.it is safe from the rude irreverence of gos siping discussion. His life is' a eheorfal ' soli tude, which bis occupation specially favors. He s'the watchmaker of the nearest village. All day longho sits at his qnict work, alone with liis reveries, which ordinary intrusion relieves without wholly interrupting. In tho evening he takes his regular walk up a little glen that opens upon tlie river shore, within easy distance of his dwelling; and at night ho gets indulgence and expression for his fadings in his violin. ■ ‘ Regular fa all his habits as his own chrono meters, and as untiring and exact in duty, liis fancy and. affections have also caught tho strict formality of system, and havo grown so .uniform and measured in.their movement that it is hard to' see through that placid surface tho warm sentiment of constancy which sus tains its even earnestness. His hope is now, fa more regards than one, “ an anchor which entercth within the veil.” Tho earthly love is now, year by year, insensibly changing its tone and deepening its current, and the religious devotion which first grew out of it, is gaining its' proper tenderness, as the autumn fruit holds the flower’s fragrance mellowed in its so ber ripeness. ''This man’s intellect is not large nor well cultivated, but it is so honest that it cannot be cramped or clouded. He behoves a creed which is much controverted around him, or thinks ho does; but it does not trammel his judgment or limit his benevolence. lie is not Indifferent to: the nicest shades of right in theofy and practice, which he can appreciate, but ms justice is ever gentle andgenerpus. Ho ia.tlie apologist for all the erring of the con gregation; and the peaco-maker of the neigh borhood. Sometimes, too, though rarely, he is /the. confidant of tender troubles; but ho never Invites them by revealing’ his own, though he cannot always avoid betraying them. His -experience 1 has taught him to guide his hands wittingly in laying the' blessing upon bruised affections. ; He has learned that lore fa the school of. suffering, and his sympathies have the savor of a sacrament to'tlio sorrow ful-in. heart.- Above ail, in that rude region where the gospol'nmst grappie with sin in its coarsest farms of resistance, where religion is earnest enough to provoke persecution, and impiety rude enough to inflict it, and taste and temper are as much tried ah pious sensibility fa pained—in alibis faithfulness of oxhorta tlon and'remonstrance, his manner is so kindly that he makes everyhody.better whom ho meets without first making them feel that they are ■ worse. ‘ _ ~ TUcre is another Style of man in this rustic audience,- wholly unlike liis fallow members, add much more difficult of thorough appre ciation' and adequate presentment. How ho came hero I cannot tell, nor where ho qarae from; His most intimate acquaintances did riot know himj yet ho was a stranger nowhere. Every man and woman in.the community was as familiar with him as with their next neigh bor, but not one among them a|l understood him, while he knew rind-understood them all. Still; there Was nothing that could ho called mystery about him. Ho was not a puzzle, nor even a problem, to anybody. Every ono was satisfied with him, and with his own know ledge'of him. He had nothing of. what is, usually called address. It was his quick in sight and his ready sympathies that addressed him easily arid frankly to every variety of per son whom be met. At work and at play lie was at par in every company. , With, old wo man and-iittio hoys, students, clergymen, poli ticians, 'gay girls; serious, worldlings, roister ing biilließjsdiscre.et matrons, sick persons, and young dandies, he was as easy ns a glove and as genial as sunshine. HO whs ardent and tem perate, passionate and gentle, cautions and bold, sensitive and exacting, but simple, natu ral, and familiar. He was at once jovial and earnest, frolicsome and refined, proud yet nnforbidding, and without mannerism, conceit, or carefulness of effect. His education was irregular, but compre heUsive,-for ho was not so properly studious :ns intense. : He had that sort of thoroughness which may bo attained without sovero atten tion to details; seeing facts always in the light of principles, seising generals first, and very safe in retracing them to particulars, full of fancy and feeling, and alive with poetic fire. His honesty carried its 1 evidences, with it always; and although his criticism was hyper critical; his- uttorances hyperbolical, and his temper volcanic, it teas all so generously and unselfishly tempered, that ho was felt and feared without distrust, or any feeling approaching to dislike. Ho was too indifferent to any thing that concerned his own interests to be danger ous to.anybody. In this security his acquaint ances conceded all bis claims, allowed Ids su periority, and dwelt in peace with him. He owed the habitude of miud that thus distirv guished him, I suppose, to pecuniary indepen dence, to a youth that knew no wants, and had no strife with embarrassing conditions, and to expectations so ample, that ho was never driven into'actual or prospective conflicts with tho .world. Moreover, no had no ambition that involved competition, or aroused ltd spirits but on tho contrary, nis. mind and heart, wore habitually held at such a pitch as might be come tho undisputed heir of all things; and its fruits were a constant spirit of peace with all men. He met no superiors in any thing, and never felt a touch of envy. Nor did he value the acknowledgment or tho evidence of powor and position so much as to use any op >ortunity : for securing or increasing them. I jeltevO the men he. mingled with would have accorded , him a heartier' admiration and a warmer friendship, if he had not so wantonly neglected tho personal advantages of his varied powers and resources. His indifference to the things which wore the great aims of their life pressed upon them like a judgment of their lit tleness; and implied a certain moanness in the motives and uses they involved. Among women this point in hls character . made him an ideal of manliness. Tho finest and Meat among them, alike; found pleasure In their' apprehension of, and.regard for him.— None .oi- the drudging necessities, none of. tho absorbing interests of business, or ambition, would ever harden him. to them; and they felt, perhaps, without clearly understanding, that in this respect he was as feminine as the es sence of womanhood itsolf. But this was also n reason of his inefficiency'. It kept him from the activities of the civil and social administra tion. He never had an oiHco in his life j never aV6ico ini the formally organized functions of society. At a public meeting he spoke and voted for himself j but he never managed any ■Other man in■ any other Way. Ho respected the • liberties pf opinion and action of other men, and. would not worry a measuro through by any outdoor indirectness.'. In his natural position of master-raind ha was invincible, but bo was not qhallfled'l for. leadership in any movement that requlrCd address, for- the sim ple reason that he would hot employ It. His friendships were yalnable, but they wore hot very constant. -An excellent Judge he was of other.people, but ho was sure to endow those whom ho lUcedMth whatever they lacked of the qualities npon which his regards were fiecefeariiy,conditioned.. For his own tmrpo ' tea they never failed him, because lie - kept his .friendsjmlformly up. to his-ownatandordof oharacterand cohduetj but hr their relations r ® B Pt*o relapse into ■ imijf. bwh littlenesses again, and flip discov -1 'pfy'of such delimjtienclea instantly thrust them . put ofhis regard;.; Morpov.er, hlspwn charac ter-'was rapidly expanding,' andthe bosom friend of yesterday sunk into, common-place' with him At every advince he made upon him ' »lf.- The cotuxnonprudence heppssiuy : to the safe-sailing of Common people seemed coiv ardicoand selfishness to him. He did notknow that they could uot afford the risks of enthu siasm and imagination; having too'little ,of , those qualities to recover > themselves from their incident mistakes and misadventures—he did not know that tbo bigotries of sentiment which showed themselves in ordinary people were but the natural tenacity, and necessary security, of their narrowness Of fOith and in sight i for, his own wore so free and strong, and self-adjusting, that he could trust klmsell upon the sharpest point of an opinion, and the highest pinnacle of a purpose, in easy re liance that his wings would preserve his bal ance, or provide a safer perch. He was there fore intolerant, though not, tyrannical ; and loved nothing steadily, and held to nothing persistently, hut his own ever-growing Ideal. Besulting'from all this, .it is easy to infer that, while he deceived no trust, and disap pointed no rcliancewblch he Invited,ho, never theless, falsified all the prophesies that rested upon him forhis after life. , He never achieved, in his later manhood, nnythingwhich the world calls a success s nut let it bo noted also that he never suffered a defeat. It was his fate to puzzle and perplex every one who took any concern in his fortunes, —every one but him self. The dreams of his youth have settled and solidified into the factsof middle age I but bis later actual life is as much Interior as the perspective oi his boyhood; and this is all the mystery there is in it. For some years he held the reputation of an effective orator, but ho nover made an effort to secure its fruits. No one ovor doubted his ability for any sort of business, but nobody expected him to do its drudgery. His opinions and judgments wore eminently practical, and he was among the safest of ad visers, but he never carried anything in ids own practice to accomplishment. In a word, his actual life has been but the complement of the lives around him, hut nothing to the fur therance of liis own, by the measurement of ordinary judgment. Among the prominent features of this complex character nothing was more striking than the warmth and hearti ness of his admirations—he was a very hero worshiper j ever seeking, as it seemed, out of himself, the embodiment of his highest self, and although confident, to a fimlt in his own convictions, always best satisfied when he could admiro them unreservedly and unsel fishly as the property of other men. His intellect was at once agile and massivo; but rather and graceful than witty. Mirthfulness and” delicate humor mingled in its movements, like light woven into the water of a mountain stream; and genuine pathos mel lowed its brightness like cypress shades trem bling in the setting snn upon a meadow slope. Ho was the best story-teller in the social circle, and the keenest critic and aptest debater in a public controversy. ‘ He shono in an extempo raneous speech, but shied fastidiously at a set address. In such public service selfish men used him for their purposes, and ho proudly per mitted them to do so, when a worthy object aimed at could be so effected, though burdened with their personal advantage. To aum up the workings of this character, I need not say that the issuo showed his life a failure for nil tlio purposes which his youth predicted. Yet every enterprise of the times which ho approved had the advantage of his services, up till tho moment when it neared success, and then he abandoned if to tho in terests of those who desired to ride into har bor upon its flood-tide. Conspicuous among the points of incomplo tion and non-fulfilment which his history ex hibits, were such as these: He had very rich poetical sensibilities and abundant resources of the art, but he never wrote a poem; and though libOraliy furnished with literary stores, ho added nothing to tho stock of polite learn ing ; for tho singular reason that his ruling testes and tendencies were philosophic and scientific, for whoso culture the promiscuous engagements of his life left him no sufficient leisure; and their pursuit was, bosldes, addi tionally embarrassed by tho indulgence of his social proclivities. I have been endeavoring, thus far, only to analyse tho character in hand without embrac ing the elements of his physical organization and temperament. The general quality of those life-forces and life-controllers may he readily inferred, and I need only say that they were in happy consonance with his mental make, nis complexion must have been very fair; his eyes blue, his linir colored in keeping, his health perfect, and his age, at tho time intend ed, about twenty-two; and they were so. But the correspondence struck still deeper. With out any approach to ruggedness or robustness of frame, ho could endure the sharpest vicissi tudes of weather, perform tho severest ath letic exercises, work all day and watch all night, unconscious of fatigue. Ho often Worked his brain in the tenseness of a spasm, or held his feelings in an ocstaoy, for days to gether, with impunity; yet, withal, he was as susceptible of ephemeral fevers, and os liable to delirium in them, ns tho most nervous woman in 'ho country; hut his fine constitution never failed to dispose of tho morbid influ ences, and. rise into renewed health with equal celerity. "I have seen him treated for tho au tumnal chills of that region, with pure and powcrihl stimulants, with immediate success; and I have scon him bled twonty ounces in a similar chill, with just the same result. Thoro was, indeed, a strango combination in his vital structure. No lady had a softer hand or nicer touch, and not a blacksmith in tho valloy could strike a harder blow. There was, in fact, a mixture of tho rowdy and the woman in his make, that defied tho common rules of symmotry and proportion. His voice was mu sically mellow, yet his beard and hair were like fine-spun sand-stone for grit and stifl’ness. Ho spoke with n matchless rapidity, but with a distinctness and rhythmical modulation which urn nothing to bo wished for—tho deafest could hear, and tho dullest understand him. Those only had their attention strained who could grasp the wholo play and compass of his thought, and tasked, themselves to compre hend it. In this, again, we have tho analogy of his physical organism: bis mental action, modu lated iiko bis muscular, strained no faculties of others except their strongest. It levelled itself, gently to the gentle, while it roso like an ,ocean-tido against encroaching currents. But tho most material modification, the ad ventitious force most effective upon his early life, remains to be noticed—his religious expe rience. And here I must be allowed some license of description—some freedom of out lining in the effort at presentment. Remem ber that ho was but twonty-two at the dote of our flint acquaintance; an enthusiast iu senti ment, a poet in mental temperament, and had never been unhappy. Not a wavo in the current of his young life had yet been ruffled by a crime or an advorsity. Fostered by na ture and fcasted byforiuno to the fullness of Ids needs; with doors wido open to all tho hearts that he would enter, and all his future built of his own dreams; and we may know what it is that his full soul yet hungered for. It was hut the other day that his head and heart were overflowing from their own fresh fountains. The sunlight of an early spring day flashing on the hill-tops, the streams gush ing fi-om their slopes, and rushing in a thou sand currents, with such direction only ns tho accidents of tho surlhco gave them, might fitly stand for the material typos of his electrical impulses in their freo frill play. Thought and feeling sprang from brain and bosom in search of the Infinite, as the rivulets rush omvard toward the sea. His aspirations climbed tho heavons, his affections grasped tho earth; till finding no boundaries at their utmost outreach, his soul stood entranced in the midst of tho great deep. The sense of tho un limited and eternal that grew out of the biiffllng boundlessness of his search, resolved them selves into a Divine Efficient; nnd then come revealed religion to shapo the wondering worship into order and beauty ; and he be lieved, and lived, and moved, and had his being in the Ail-Perfect. He belongs now to this motley congrega tion, accepts its seeming brotherhood, assumes its sectarian name, and performs the duties of Its membership, in all tho frank confidence and simplicity of a gonorons nature. Ho is thirst ing for the communion of tho good and true. The church is tho visible kingdom; in its sacred sphere ho breathes freely; and the meagre, sordid earth, and the false natriro of the life around him are merged in the glory of tho indwelling divinity. Old things have passed away, and all tilings hnvo become new to his renewed heart. And, lie shall have one holy year of this spiritual exaltation, which shall consecrate his whole life after, and leave the perftimo of its grace and goodness to bless and beautify, when, alas I tho cnclinntmcnt is broken by tho hindrances an evil world offers to a holy life. It will bo seen that I have been describing this man in his youth, by the help of tho light reflected from his after years. Tho problem of tho bud is resolved in the fruit, whorevor, as in his case, the latent possibilities have freedom to grow by their own forco into ac tual. tics. TO BE CONTINUED. Vebv Cool !—ln sport, as well as in politics, coolness is tho quality whioh Englishmen most admire.

A llerman violinist recently appeared in a concert before a London audience, and began to play an adagio; but ho was interrupted in the boginning by loud hissing. Without moving a musolo in his fsoo,,oUr Teutonic artist puts,his bow on the ground, and whistles his melody, taking it just at tho note whore ho had been stepped, and accom panying himself by pinohing bis violin as If it 'y e fo a guitar.
