taKeu piaee m m'v'
manner tif my friend.
Our first greetings and inenaiy iu-
. - r t k C J
quiries over, l longed, yet, ienreu, w
ask too cause 01 my irienu u int-iu-
cholv. I felt sure, iu due time, or ue-
in"- made the connuaut 01 tne seciei,
rovided no motive of delicacy prompt-
its concealment.
That eveuinc, at my room at the
hotel, Georgo told me his story, lie
had formed on attachment for a young
Wlv. whose trraces of mind and per
son he poVtrayed with all the fervor of
a lover 8 eloquence. !?ne nuu reuirueu
iia ad'ecticju ; but her lather had op
posed the suit, having set his heart on
the marriage 01 -ma uaugmer m t.n-
ew of his. This nephew was a young
surgeon, of profligato character, my
friend assured nie but that may have
been pnj idica who had long, butuu
success! ii llv wooed his cousin, to whom
his nrofleis were as repugnant as they
her father acceptable.
Some months since, Mr. Parsons, tLe
lrlvV fiitlier. had rrone into
Hampshire on Iuisiucsh, DCComraniv;(l
bv his nephew. At Southampton he
had lieen seized by a 5'idden illness,
which terminated fatally in three days.
On the day preceding his death he
had executed a will (which had since
been proved by the deposition of in
teresting witnesses), containing a sol
emn request that his daughter, to whom
he left the whole of the estate, should
aecopt the hand of his nephew in mar
riage coupled with the provisions that
in case the latter offered, and she re
fused, within a specified period to en
ter into the proposed union, the entire
estate devised to the daughter should
felted to the neuhew.
To sacrifice her fortune to her heart's
choice would not have cost Julia l ar
moment's hesitation : and noth
intr emild have more delighted George
Dickson than so fair an opportunity of
showing how superior his devotion was
to all considerations 01 personal au
. n . i i j
vantage, but ncr miners uyiui; in
quest, in Julia's eyes was sacred. It
had surprised and stunned her, it is
true ; lor in tneir maajcuuieinaio uu
the subject, he had never gjiue beyond
the most kindly remonstrance, and
had never hiuted at anything like co
ercion. B. , , . !
Y'oung Parson, the nephew, had not
the raagTnninity to forego his ungen
erous advantage. Ho might havo
beeu content with his cousin's fortune
alone but his right to that depended
on his offer and ,htr rejection of an
allianco which she felt in consequence
bound to accept. The brief season of
grace, which she had been compelled
i her even with tears, had already
almost passed, and a few more days
would witness tho condemnation of
two lives to hopeless misery.

When I met George Dixon that
evening, hia old college look had
come back. He had great news to
tell me. The next thing was to take
me to see JuHaiid itis needless to
tell what a happy evening wo tnree
spent together, and what a happy
marriage followed not long after.
Elbridgo Parsons, I have just learn
ed, emigrated for Australia, on board
I j the London, and went down id that
ill -luted sr.ip.
When thev reached the depot, Mr,
Mann nnd his wife cazod in unspeaka
le dissappointmcnt at the receding
train, which was lust ptuiing awuy
the hrirVe switch at the rate oi
a thousand miles a minute. Their
fir.'t impulse was to run after it, but
' !.. -:i.
us the tram was out 01 sim, nuu
whistline for Sugetown before they
could act unon tho impulse, 'they re
mained in the carnage and clisconso
lately turned their" horses' heads home

"It nil pome's of bavins to wait for
a woman to tret ready." Mr. Mann
broke the silence, very grimly.
"1 iv a a readv before vou were, rc
nlie.d his wife.

until thn whole neighborhood heard

the provoking placidity which no ono
can assume but a woman, "and every

Mr. Mann groaned. "This is too
much to bear," he said, "when every
hodv knows that if I were going to
Europe I would just rush iDto tho
house, put on a clean shirt, grab up
my grip sack, and fly, while you
would want at least six months for
nrc-llr rnnrv nrenarat'ions, and then
dawdle around the whole day of start-'
ipg until every tfam had left town.
Well, the upshot ct the matter was
that the Manns put oft their visit to
Aurora until the next week, aud it
was agreed that each one4 should get
liniself or herselt ready and go uowu

began to paw at the things like a
Scotch terrier- after a rat.
"Eleanor," he shrieked, "where are

"In the shirt you just pulled ofT."
Mrs. Mann put on her gloves while
Mr. Mann hunted up nnd down the
room for his cuff button.
"Eleanor," he snarled, at last, "1
believe you must know where those
cuff buttons arc."
"I haven't seen them, said the
lady, settling her hat; "didn t you lay
them down on the window sill in tne
sitting-room last night?"
Mr. Mann remembered, nnd ho went
down stairs on the run. lie stepped
on one of his boots and vas immediate
ly landed in the hall at the foot of tho
stairs with neatness and dispatch, at
tended in the transmission with more .
bumps than he could count with Y ebb'a
adder, and landed with a bang like
the Hell Gato explosion.
"Are you nearly ready, Algernon?'
asked the wife of his family, Bweetly,
leaning over the banisters.
The unhappy man groaned. "Can't
you throw me down the other boot?"
he asked. '
Mrs.H,.Maun pitviivgly kicked ,.it
down to him.
"My valise?" be inquired", as lie
tugged at the boot.
"Up in your dressing-room,"
answered.
"Packed?"
"I do not know ; unless you packed
it yourself, probably not," she replied,
with her hand on the door knob; "I
had barely time to pack my own."
She was passing out of the gate
when the door opened, aud he shout
ed :
"Where in the name of goodness
did you put my vest? It has all my
money in it I
You threw it on the hat-rack,
she called ; "good bye dear."
Before she got to the coi ner ot the
street she was hailed ngain.
"Eleanor! Eleanorl Eleanor Mana!
Did you wear olf my coat?''
She paused and turned, after sig
nalling tho street car to stop, nnd
cried :
"You threw it on the silver closet."
And the street car engulfed her
graceful form and she was seen no
more. But the neighbors say that
they heard Mr. Mann charging up
and down the house, rushing out of
the frout door every now and then,
shrieking after the uoconscious Mrs.
Mann, to know where his hat was,
and where she put the valise key, and
if ho had any clean socks and under
shirts, and that there wasn't a linea
collar iu tho house. Aud when he
went away at last, he left the kitchen
door, the side door and the frontdoor,

front gate wide open. And the loung
