The alteration in her countenance, since the time he had seen her, was indeed fully calculated to awaken similar feelings in one whose recollections were not half so warm as his own. The exquisite sym metry of her features had given way to lines of care and anguish, oud the roseate tinge of beauty on her cheek, once delicate and fair, as if impressed with an angel's pencil, was turned into a snow-like pale netts, faintly streaked with carmine, as if the pride of woman's loveliness was un willing to leave its favorite throne. Yet still there was a hush of sweetness in the very composure of those softened featurets, that wakened a finer and more touching thrill within the heart, than could the fell , bloom and radiance of her charms. Kim nitz saw the burning blush on his own i cheek called up au answering suffusion in the wasted features of the lady, but it was of the purely intellectual emotion with which earth aud its feelings have nu coin ' tuuuity whatever, and the embarrassed young man felt himself greatly relieved, when the lady requested him to be seated, , and addressed him in tones which, though weak and feeble, were of the sweetest courtesy—ol know not, sir. under what circurustanres you have been brought, here; / perhaps they were violent ; but there ue v -1 cr was a 'initial' being I desired so ardently to see." Kaunitz answered with s o m e confusion, that he would forgive any vio lence which would make him the means of rendering her a service. "Ali," said she, / taking his hand, and fixing her large / dark eyes upon him, adult no expression that touched his soul, "you little know the i Service you have to render tile, or the re • lationship iu which we Stand to each oth er..' The young minister colored again, and his heart almost stepped within him, !us he felt a scalding tear drop upon Lis I hand. She continued, "You do not know tee, but still I veuerate you as my deliver er. my instructor, as. my father." Kaunitz, with new sympathy, awakened, begged of her to explain. "You will not think it strange that I should use such language when you hear my story ; though you may have, perhaps, seen ate in your church ; yet— start not—l alit itJewish maiden, anu was / educated in the deepest abliorcuce of that / Jesus of whom I have often heard you speak in the most delightful terms. I might have remained sit forever, and been like thousands of my sex and persuasion, happy mid admired iii my ignorance.— !hit I had a young and beautiful friend, ru whom, though proscribed by may relit ! Live, as a c6ristian, 1 was pasigiewely at ; welled. But in the very pride of her I young beauty, s he was stricken by disease —alas! destined tai be mortal. As I watched by her bedsit, one evening she took my hand, and said to tile, iu a toe which sunk into toy heart, for it was such as I had never heard her use befur:;, "Zo ira will you promise me one thing, and I ! will din happy ?" 1 promised her soi -1 manly, for I would have promised her any thing. "Zora, then," said she, "dearest I Zura, will you only engage to love my Saviour?" The tears gushed from her eyes as she spike, and they gushed from mine too ; for I was horrified at her re quest. But she continued, "Oh, I ton too weak to tell you of the happiness, and de light you would feel. But will you go and Lear the minister of whom you have often heard me speak ? He can tell you of the power of the religion of Jesus bet ter than a dying girl. Oh, Zora, do tell me, that you will go ?" She looked at me with such au earnestness of agony in her countenance, that I assured her I would do all she asked ; and in delight she press ed my hand close to her bosom, for she was too exhausted to speak. In a short time I felt her grasp become weak and clammy, and, oh, mercy ! saw died even while holding n*y Aland." Here the tears of the beautiful girl 1 , choked her utterance, and Kaunitz, who well recollected the lamented young lady of whom she spoke, freely mingled his I own, at this affecting narrative of her lust moments. The lady seemed deeply touch ed by his emotion, and" in a short time continued a narrative, to Kaunitz now be come intensely interesting—" That request. so earnestly entreated, and so solemn)) , re gistered to the dead, you may be sure was kept, though it cost me many a pang of strange and shuddering reluetanva. , At length, deeply disguised, I hired a close carriage and went alone, for I dared not trust another with my secret, to the place she had mentioned. It was to your chap el. You cannot appreciate the &inflict of my feelings when, alone and unprotected,. I found myself in a place and among a people I had always looked upon with ab horrence and detestation. But I had not listened to you long before I forgot every other feeling in u glow of awakened ten derness. It was of my own and ever dear Maria you were speaking; and you de scribed her loveliness, her purity, her re signation, in a Manner which filled my Soul with the moat exquisite emotion; but when you came to speak of her death, and to dilate on the effnutey.of faith in, the Re deemer, in the awful monienteg dissolu tion, my soul was touched with wonder.— "And is this," .said T, "are Jeans 'lave beard reviled 1" •My very heart punk within me at the reflection, and I thought God. himself Must forever coudeino trie•for wy impiety. I. was in fact wretched in my mind, until, as it were, you opened tie] portals of heavan, and pointed out my do-1 parted friend, robed as en angel, singing the praises of her Saviour in an eternal; poiedise ; and declared that transcendent ' bliss would be the lotof all, their her, would take that Saviour for their Ixirtien; then, 'oh, theb-4ei Soul seemed io . herei changed its •resideweso . -**l4, -so oiousewore•the.hopeamid.lo4lilll wskosed: Pro 0,0440.70 AM AVM, itlmers,set refof s a 010 1 0,i RY,,Mer. o I ;Would lire io, Ohl to Lib wit lbeieWi, loved oonatemienl6 her It*he hit ereeleg 1 perclissed Ilan, tootowl soots, sod words would be imagism, * "FEARLESS A tell the delight, the tallgite with Which I perused the wondrous W 45 or Redeeming Love.

Since thattime, oh, could you know what I hgveluffered ; e very comfort was removed, anti the most sys tematic and relentlee persecution adopted. Once discovered, I well k:ne* the iron op. position of my friends niiier could be sof tened ; and I besought of that Jesus I had dared to love, to give tino strength for the i terrible conflict. Oh, my dear sir, how 'glad I would often have been in the gloomy hours of solitude and privation I had to encounter, to have soon , you—to have heard .lour lips explain once more t hose delicious truths at once.nay comfort and my bane. My repeated solicitations to that effect, were, however, of no avail; and it was at list only when in the tremor of weakness, they bad extorted from me a terrible promise, that by relatives consented that you should be brought. • I cannot express the joy your presence has . iu,pired. Oh. do tell me," she continued, while she clasped her hands, and 'her countenance assumed an expression of the deepest ear nestness, "is there any -hope of heaven for tine so long an unbeliever? Can an out cast such as I am, enjoy any portion of 'hat Saviour's love, so long but uncon ciously despised ?"- As she was speaking, her beautiful but wasted features would io. times light up with an expression that seemed to the in tensely interested Inhibitor, to glow like ho prophets of old, with a halo of insptra- t io n ; and again be veiled in au imphring I lejectiou,As if her very:heart was wither ing within.

The warm tears, however, in which his agonized tltel logs had found vent, gashing unrestrained upon her features, brou‘bt bank her he veriug soul once more to earth. She open ed her eyes, and her glane on the speak. hig terderness of Kaunitt's gaze, beamed with an instant and joyous reoognition.— Ller first words were of her melancholy but over constant. theme. "Oh, tell we," said she, ' can I hope for pardon r' The overpowered clergyman relinquish ed his holitomd affected with inexpresell) I hie emotion, knelt kown beside her, and in an eloquence of suet he had never lelt ' before, he sought the throne of Mercy to pour the full assurance of pardon in her heart. As he grew more fervid in the power of his God, he called upon the present Jesus to finish the redemption of a spirit so ripe for heaven—to remove the awhil obduracy of her relations, and to strengthen that gentle mind with more than creature firmness in the ordeal of danger she would have to emelt:Her.— When he had finished, the lovely etni.l vert still remained in an attitude of intense ) devotion : he fair white hands were clasp ed upon her bosom ; licfropuntensase was, [ upturned to heaven, but - the agony of doubt had departed. Her soul seemed entranced in rapture, and her exquisite features were tit up with a beamiug Retie faction, that partook of the radiance - of anticipated immortality. Every trace ()languish and despair had ;eft tier features, for a joyous flush of resplendent satisfac tion ; and the unutterable eharms of the heart's deep and Unearthly delight, shining through the moat perfect lineaments of mortal beati , iy,,p . ve, in that exquisite mo ment, such an angelic lustre killer person, that the first impulse of the impassioned clergt nun wails) adore what seemed to be a revelation of heaven's own sinless and immortal loveliness. - In that holy time, he felt indite kindreirglove i gihia own excited spirit, all thee° ardent 'Feelings of sympathy and admiration will, which the casual sight of that fair,,ereature had first inspired him, explained and reauseiated, but so refined by the redeeming influence of tier stainless purity, that not a tinge of earthly love of passion mingled in his thoughts. .1 In a short time the lady rove from her I knees, and the celestial animatten of her , lace was clouded, but only deepened by the tone of solemn and emphatic Sernms nese in which she said; while she .eliveped i her hands convulsively. !KW my -God.'l.i fool, 1 fenl ogle that , Olt leligioßk VIIIII.I all which I will have tocollit2: Tea, lay; deer Maiii.."thi bloomed lititedidgelitt.thy Jesusi add the
