"Very well : then don't, tbat'a rII." Mr. Fred Eukprsou drew away his chair, nnd putting hia fuut upon tho tiiazzit, un folded a newspaper. Mies Uccky Xewlou bit her hp nnd went ou with her sewing. tSliu w muli) red if that was going to bo the luut of it. Shu had felt this proposal com ing for a month, but the scene she had an ticipated was not at all like this. She had inluudud to refuse him, but it was to be done gracefully. She was to romain firm, notwithstanding his most eager eulreaties. Slio was lq iayo tol.J )iin that though re specting hi inauly worth aud upright cha reclcr, she could uever be to him more than an appreciative and earnest friend. She had intended to sljed a Cuw tears, per haps, as he knelt writhing in an agony of supplication at her feet. But iustead, ho had asked her the simple question, without any rhetorical embellishments, and on be ing answered, had plungod at once into his newspaper, ns though he had merely asked the time of day. Sb.o .could have cried with vcxatiou. ' "You will never have a better , chance," he continued, after a pause, as he deliber ately turned over the sheet to find tho la lent telegraphic reports. "A better chance for what ?" she asked, shortly. 'A better chance to marry a young, good looking man. whose gallautry to the sex is only exceeded by tiis -bravery in their de feline.' Fred was quoting from his newspaper, but Miss Newton did not know it. 'And whose egotism is only exceeded hy his impudence,' retorted the lady sarcasti cally. 'ik'fore long,' continued Ftcd, 'you'll be out uf the market. Your chances, are get ting slimmer every day.' 'Sir I' 'It won't be a great while before you are ineligible. You s ill grow old and wrin kled and ' 'Such rudens8s to a lady, sir, is mon strous, ' exclaimed Miss Newtou, rising hastily, and Hushing to the temples. I'll givo you a liual opportunity, Miss llecky. Will you mar' 'Not if you were the King of England,' interrupted Miss Newton, throwing dowu her work. 1 aiu uot accustomed to such insults, sir.' Aud so sayioz, sho passed into tho house aud slammed llie door beliiud her. Sbois never so handsome as when she is iu a rage,' thought Fred to hiinsclf, after she had gone, as be slowly folded up his paper aud replaced it in his pocket. 'I was a fool to goad her so. I shall never wiu her in that way. Uut I'll have her,' he ex claimed, nloud. 'By heaven I'll havo her cost what it may I' Very different was the Fred Eckerson of the present, pacing nervously up anil down the piazza, from tho Fred Eckersou a few moments ago, receiving his dismissal fiom the woman he loved, with such calm aud imperturbable exterior. For he loved Bec ky Newton with' all iiLs heart. The real difficulty in the way, as bo more than half suseclcd, was not ,9 much with himself as iu Ins pocket. Hecjcy .ewtQp hail an nihu perable objection loan empty .wallet. The daughter of a wealthy Louitana planter, reared in luxury, nnd the ruoiphCnt .of n weekly allowance of pin-money sufficient, to pay Fred's whole bills for a month, she had no immediate idea of changing her situa tion for oim of less comfort aud independ ence. IWsides it had been intimated to her that a neighboring planter of unusually aristocratic lineage had looked upon her with covetous eyes. To be sure, he was old apd ugly, but he was rich, and. in her present juiercenary stain of mind, Miss Becky Newtou did not desire to allow such a chaucc of becoming a wealthy widow to slip by uuimproved. But alas for human nature ! ,If Becky was really so indilfci'cnt to Fred Ecker sou, why did she run up Mairj after that interview, aud take the starch all o.ut of her nice clean pillow-shams by crying her self into hysterics on the bed '( It was not all wrath, uot all vexation, not all pique. There was somewhere deep down iu Becky Newton's heart a feeliug very much akiu to remorse. She was uot sure that she would uot oue day be jiorry for what she had done. She had.no doubt she could be very kwy P3 Fred Eckersou's wife, ftf'.'T all. ' But then,"shu cried, grnwiug hot with the recollection, 'he wasjio rude, and soip suliiug ! I uever could live with such a man, never!' When Fred Eckerson nnd walked off some of his feeliug ou the piazza, ho con cluded to take a look nt the river. The Mississippi, which flowed within five hun dred yriU of the house, was nt Unit time nearly at the heigbt pf its annual "spriui; rise." Its turbid waters,. I'lisUing swiftly towards the sea, had nearly filled iho banks, and in many plnoc had broken through the levies and flooded the low-lands for many Hijlw. A crevasse of this descrip tion ha beeu made in the farther bank, nearly opposite the house, and the wiu dowsoftue Newton in. in si on commanded a view of a vas,tapd glittering jnland sea, uot laid dow,;i ou the maps. The main current of the si team bora upou it colfee colored bosom an enormous mass of float ing timber, which was dashed along the boiling llood, rendering navigation wholly impossible. The waters were still rising, and the frequent crashes far aud near told of the undermiiiiii!! power of the current, as sections of the sandy bank succumbed aud disappeared, carrying with lbc,!P the tree., w i jci qvm'hupg .tbe ibticnm. Now it haniienod that, hy a curious co- coincidence, Miss Newton also resolved to look at the river. She dried her tears, and putting gadjer hat, slipped out by the hack door to avoid Fred, and soon found her self at the foot pf a huge cottonwood tree ou the bank below the house. Throwing herself upon tho grass, aud lulled by the bubbling of the rapid flood lieucath hor, she soon fell fast asleep. Had she possess ed any power of foreseeing the future, it would have been the last thing she would have done, for although it was very plea sant dropping asleep there iu the .shade, with the soil sunlight liltering through the leaves over bend,, the awakening was jjf't at nil toher ui)(l. A terrible crash ipado chaos of hur dreams ; the grnuud slipped from bqpenih her; tha tall cottonwood toppled nud full ; aud Mis Becky Newtou found bexself .sudi'.ctily .iq.mersed in tho cold floodT.with her mouth (.!, (yf muddy water, lu a moment mora somebody's arm was around her, and she felt herself lifted uoaud placed somen hers in the sun shine, though precisely where she was as jet too biwildercd to know.

Becky was silent. Shu was thinking, not of the ai cident or their jierilous posi tion, but ot her appearance when she was lying asleep on the grass. 'How long, were you thc.ru before this happened 1" she asked. 'As long ns you wore. I was up in tho tree when you camq.' You Ijad a right 0 bo up there,' she said coloring 'a spy upon my movements.'
