"But Fred, suppose her intelligent, mo

that two iindsome young men wore so
very near.
Approaching with a low bow, upon which
his mirror had set the Seal of faultless ele
gance, Frederick Lane took the liber
ty of asking if the young lady would be
kind enough to inform him where a Mr.
Irving lived.
With an innocent midi) the beauty look

rising in a charmingly graceful manner.—.
"The large house," she continued, "on
high ground, half hidden by trees and
thick shrubbery—that's where we live.—
I believe it was an—an academy once—
that's a sort of select school isn't it ?" with
the most natural simplicity, turning to
Fred. He replied by another graceful
bow.
"Tell your father," said he, "that I
shall do :nyself the honor cif calling on him
to-morrow. lie will remember me—Fred
erick Lane, at your service."
"Yes, sir, I'll tell him word for word,"
replied Helen, tucking her sleeve around
her pretty arm, and making rather a form
al courtesy. Then catching up her book
and gathering the scattered flowers, she
hurried towwards home,
"Now father, mother, aunt and sis," ea
claimed the merry girl, bounding into the

GETIISBUR44, PAARIPAY EVENING, APRIL 8, 1853.
"Ella, you aro not iiipo respectful,"
said her father, gravely.
"Forgive me, dear father," an4er arms
were folded about his neck, "I always mean
well, but lam so thoughtless ! There, all
is right now," she added, kissing him lov
ingly on the temple.
"Come, Bin, 'what say you Y" •
"Why, on that condition, I'll be still as
a mouse ; but what's your reason 1 !"
"Ah 1 that's my own," saki Ellen, dan
cing out of the room.
"You knit admirably," and Fred looked
on with an unsoonseioue smile of admira
tion.
Helen sat at an open wpdow, throve)
which roseAusheethruse their blushing
buds, making both sweet shade and fra
grance. The canary over-head, burst out
every moment in wild snatches of glorious
musio. Helen was at work on a long, blue
stocking, nearly finished, and her fingers
flew like snow-birda.
Yjp s knit admirably ; are you fond of
it f"
"Yes, quite. I like it better than--
than anything else—that meatr.l
can churn very well."
"And do you ysad much ?" Fred's
glances had travelled fYoui tWa corners of
his eyes, over every table, shelf and corn,
cr, in search of some book or paper. But
not a page, not a leaf, yellow or sore, re
paid his search.
"0 ! yes," Helen said, with a seltsatis
fled glatMe.
"What hooks ?" permit me to ask."
"I read the Bible a good deal," she esn-:
swered gravely
"Is that all ?"
"All, of course not; and yet, what do
wo not 'find in that holy volume? Histo
ry, poetry, eloquence, romanee—the most
pathos--" Blushing{ and recol
lecting herself, she added, with.a manlier
us childish us it had been alignifietl,--
"As for other books-.let me see. -I've
got in my library—first, there's the prim
er, (counting on her fingers) second class
reader, Robinson Crusoe, nursery tales,
fairy stories, two or three elements of
something, biography of some person or
other, mothers' magazine, king Richard
the third--there! isn't that a good assort
ment?" Fred smiled.
"Perhaps Won't know quirt:as rant*
as tho.ie who have been to school more,"
she sailed, as if disappointed at hia mato
njoinder ; "hut in making bread, churn
ing butter, and keeping house, I'm not to
be outtioue."
The young man left her more in pity
than in love, but his visits did not always
so result. Ile began to feel a maguetio at
traction which he vainly attributed to
lieleu's beauty; but the truth is, her
sweet artlessness of character. engaging
manners, and gentle disposition, quite won
upon the city bred and aristocratic Fred
Lane. There was a freshness and refine
ment about everything she said and did.
She perplexed as well as delighted him.
Often, as ho was wondering how some
homely expression would be received in
good society, some beautiful sentiment
would suddenly drop like a pearl, from her
lips, not more remarkable for originality
than brilliancy.
"If I should fall in the snare," thought
he, "I can educate her. It would be worth
trying."
It was useless to combat with this pas
sion; so at lust he fell at Helen's feet (fig
uratively speaking) and confessed his love,
"I care not, Helen, only be mine;" wee
his invariable answer to her exclamations
of unworthiness; bow should she appear
in fashionable society, etc., etc.
They were married—had returned from
their wedding tour, and at the expiration
of this honey-moon Fred was more in lore
than ever. At a grand entertainment giv
en by relatives of the bridegroom, Helen
looked most beautiful. Her husband did
not insist that she should depart from her
usual simplicity, and indeed, without )erv
els or laces, with only that fresh white
robe, simple sash of blue, and ornaments
of fair moss roses, she was the must lovely
creature in the room.
As she entered the great saloon, blazing
with light, her heart failed her. "Shall I
love him as dearly," she asked herself, Fit*

"Simple," whispered; magnificent look,

she curled her lip and passed by. The ob,
