" However," he would say, "ho is my senior by eleven years ; when I am of hie present age, what shall I not be?" • But in the mean time he.had.been progressing further and further Into the favor of Miss Haste leigh, when an event that for a year or two had certainly not been unexpected took place ; Mr. Hasteleigh died, having first settled on his daugh ter, Miss Joan, ana her issue only, all his prop erty. In fact, though she was at the same time bat twenty years of age, for the year or two previous the whole vast business of her father had been bona fide ender her management ; for he Buffered from a painful chronic) ailment that confined him -to the house, and IRAs glad to acquiesce in, and give the sanction of his name to, any measure she pleased; and, with the assistance of the va rious confidential clerks, &c., and especially of Eimund Vesper, who acted as a kind of private clerk, she conducted all affairs with the greatest ability and success. She was now to be the in dependent mistress of a great and flourishing business, and to be disposed of at her own ca price alone. She was, moreover, a woman of much beauty, and of a character remarkable for masculine judgment and energy. " She is mine !" thought E !mend—" she must ; be ; I know she loves me ; but more—she knows my talent, and that, great an her fortune is, lam the man that can double it in ten years." "Poor fellow !" thought Joan ; "ho loves me I believe ; bat however good, amiable, talente t, and, latterly, polished, he is still only a miner's son. His career has been remarkable; but what is intellect, enterprise, anything, if their posses sor be low born I make no doubt be thinks to have me, but that cannot be; moreover, I will help him on in lite as far as I can." In the mean time Edmund did his utmost to render himself pleatdog to her, and one or twice was convinced he would win her. He devoted himself with hie whole energy to the task; con eider& d no labor too great; and often, after a long day's work at the counting house, would sit up half or all the night, balancing and squaring different portions of the business, to please her, or lessen her trouble ; or, perhaps, arranging the returns sent by the different commercial travelers, or making up abstracts of the state of the coal and iron markets at different periods, to I guide her speculations. And when she saw the pate cheek and lustrowS.eye, produced as much by this labor as by having the all- exciting thought of making a fortune continually before the mind, she laid it to his consuming passion, and, while eho pitied him, regretted that he was of a rank so low. But she did not love him—no, as yet she did not—he was merely the favorite servant of the firm of Hasteleigh & Co. She became the great toast of the district—the very pet of ifs society--the cynosure of all ball rooms, and the like places of resort. Her name and fortune were the conversation of all the young men who thought their rank (they all thought their persons) offered pretensions to her favor. Moreover, her habits and disposition were a frequent theme of discourse; and those who were wise enough to see themselves alto gether shut out from any chance of her were pretty well agreed upon this point, that whoever got her would get something to keep his wits'in exercise without any mistake. Edmund was not surprised that with all her talent she bhould thus take delight in pursuits so frivolous iu the eyes of those incapable of en joying them. He could enjoy them himself, and p.nted for that time when his money and in fluence would allow him to take his natural place in the bright circle wherein she took such pleasure in holding her own eminent position. And yet this circle was that of the commercial and mining Qapt. Mark Starling, Al., Kier, John S. Dilworth, Francis Bollera, William B. liaya.

These pereonagee, in all provincial taa - ne, have , an entre at once unquestioned into the wealthiest circles ; a poor ensign, whose father's pay could not afford him Mora , education than he could pick-up about the-barracks—who has some six or seven shillings a day, and out of :hat must find a glittering uniform and a man to keep it elean—will find himself more courted than the university-educated header a mercantile 11011E0 who'Bends a dozen men through the king lout to puff his goods, giving each of them four r five tiraes his rival's income. How this comes We need 'not delay our story to investigate ; ;office it to Say that the regiment that had for a year or so been at the barracks of the large town u which the principal business of Ilasteleigh Co. was transacted, marched away one fine morn ing; to the great grief of all the young ladies, whirl. was changed to smiles, when, on the fol 10W112-7, morning, another regiment, with young officer a marched in. Io this second regiment was Lieutenant Peeelie, yonog man of about twenty five years of age, remarkable for a tall and very fine figure, (partly the gift of the tailor,) handsome features, a good 3oroplezion, rather Mild blue eyes, a receding fore need, and a beautiful head of hair. His con eaetione were as follows father was a aiutenantecolonel on half pay, and with about taro thousand pounds in the funds ; and on the produce of these he had to live himself, and edu cate and provide for six eons. The two eldest of theta he managed to get into the army, the next :ate the navy, leaving them to shift for them selves when there, while the fourth bad to strug gle into the church, and with much ado got a situation as chaplain to a traveling nobleman, haeo means required him to reside abroad. walla his religious predilections needed the ser vice of thci Church -of England. The fifth BOA, keying no admiration for pride and poverty, broke away at a tangent and opened abet -chop in Dublin, and soon made money enough to coo sole him for being disowned by his relations. The sixth was our present Lieutenant Peeche, and was considered, both personally and men tally, the flower of the fink ; was encouraged to look out for a fortune, and told that his broth Cr the hatter's fate would be his if he threw himself away. He used to be told at home, by his anxious mother, that, though when lie joined his regiment he would have to live on his pay, he might consider himself at any time worth ten thousand pound's worth of face, and the same amount of figure (if clothed in red.) The above being his.ersonal stock in opium lath* for allirtune, eletns fieeWhat waS his men tat He could read English, and write a note on mnsion, though imperfect in the spelling depart ment : he recollected the first five rules of arith te ethe ; 'had-a-vagne ides - that emits people both Bred their heads about squares, triangles, and other odd figures ; had learnt the first half of the French grarcieeer:; 4=C-we:a nearly- perfect in the arts of carving, dancing, and talking charming friv , lay In society he had a fine bold bearing, let the ghost of a strangled oath haunt the con- - • NUMBER 148 versation now and thou, and a way of :ending the opinion and direoting th; ri IH - 11,3 of fair audi- . _ tors that was starprisinz ; r instance, a young gentleman in black rom:oking that he had heard that mathematics ware a 1. , r,n0b. of knowl edgely highly essential Didier, and that Bonaparte was deep in it--" Yee," r e pli e d Peeohe, " I hare heard that engineer officers work at it, but none of ours--acne of ours. For my own part, I duvet' could manage dry studies of any sort." This seutence, and the air with which it was uttered, were convincing: the la- dies at ones: agreed that dry 6tudicia.wero very stupid and low thine, and altogether beneath the rank and mind of L'eutenaut Peeohe—in- deed, only fit: for engineer offioere, Bonaparte, and the young gentleman in black, who, feeling hie discomfiture, shrank out of the conversation and was dumb, whilst •his vanquisher, leaning back, showed the extreme edges of his fine teeth in a scarcely cognizable smile of self,complaisance. But we are tired of the fool. Let us say at once he made a conque;2 of Miss Hasteleigh, and married her and her money. We believe she loved him very deeply. His penonalprettiness (what a quality for a man !), easy manners,art of talking much and softly, and the grace f his attentions to her, won her heart suddenly for a time; during that time he proposed, and, on her learning that he will the son of Colonel Pecche, of Dublin, and bad two brother in the army and one in the navy, being thus of most respectable connections, she surrendered at once. This event struck a blow at Edmund which nearly prostrated him completely, and he was all bat giving np his speculations in despair, and turning his talents to some other promising pm.- snits. Indeed, he bitterly envied his brother, whose long endeavors and disappointments bad at length been crowned With success complete and nut quivocal ; and so strong did his feelings run, and so humbled was hts by his own disap pointments, that he determined to pay him a visit. On going to the I , laca, drJaning and dispirited, he could not bat admire the pretty little cottage, with the garden behind, "sbich Mark had pro vided for himself; and when he compared them with his own lodgings (for he was on a compara tively limited salary,) he could not but see that the balance of happiness wee altogether on his brother's aide. A boy in livery admitted him, and shortly ushered him into a neat little room opening iti the garden, titled up with books all round, thickly carpeted, and every way comfort able. Here he found Mark, seated in a library chair cf the latest and most luxurious kind, busily engaged, pen in hand, among a lot of books, pamphlets had written papers. They had for a little, calmly and quietly, t>et l t being nothing about the manner of eithr of them indicating Choir being more than strangers conversing on 80111.., unimportant matter, save the humbled aspect of Edmund, and the subdued exultation and slight sneering smile of Mark. After a little,— " Well, you have had it your own way," said the latter ; ‘• had you lent your aid to me I might have been what lam now a year or two earlier; or, in other words, at this time my wealth mad 11.62- ence might have been the square of their present amount, while you might have shared in propor tion to your years. Bat you could not relish an apprenticeship—you wanted to jump at fortune all of a sudden ; and now I suppose ycu are come to join with 1119, after the long toil, hnmili mien, and. imprisonment aro over.—and to reap a little of their good fruits." " Oh, no, no, no ; I merely cam io :3ee if nu were well." " I am well, Edmund. and I can see you are ill, I'll tell you why : I educated you, and you - deserted me—l•was passe nted, sudyou disowned me. Now, lam independent—the absolute ruler of ten thousand strong men, who love end im plicitly obey me, for thy know that the eole mo tive of all my actlond --tho only thing I have striven for—is their rulfare." Here Edmund smiled 'OO significantly, nt the same time with - so ranch, contemptuousness, at hio brother's attempt to p'tlm a canting lie upon him, that the latter was al4,ogether put out, and the lurid indication of a .blush rose over his swarthy physiognomy. In a, moment he returned, more loudly, and in a tone ;that claimed not to be trifled with: " I can make the prouder* of our old tyrants sneak aad bend and smile.thnough they wish me in —, for I could break hall of them within a fortnight. I have money, infilrbnce, and, in a measure, fame, and can c•waniand happiness;` yon are poor, disappointed, coniqered and treated as an amusing inferior—a parVtito—ill that society which I enter on terms of equality. You had a schema of yorr own, which has broke% beneath you like a rotten staff, and you come to make a claim upon me.; you, :,ho have never done me a particle of good, but meth harm, in return for all the benefits you have bad from You are wrong, Mark; I have done you good negatively ; for at any time when you were building this great scientific combination system of yours, which t;ieidi, ys.o such a revenue, I might have betrayed you to the law, exploded the whole fabric, and had y•lit banished, or worse. You recollect the nob-shooting business. This would have been my duty tv my employers; and, besides great immediate reward, might have led to the ultimate establishment of my fortune. How do you know that when one scheme has, no you say, miserably failed, I may not be tempted to try the other, even so late as now ?" A deadly pallor, and an expression which, inupled with it, made I.!larii's countenance, for bidding at the best of times, positively terrific, preceded Ms reply. Ile sat calmly the while, with the top of his pen in his mouth, as if sub duing by effort his emotion At length he said, "If I thought you would, I would take imme diate steps to prevent you, itnit you know what they would be ;"—here he laughed a short, harsh, gratidg "ha, ha I" which bad a sort of inter rogative sound, as his dark gray eyo 11 tabs.' upon iits brother's, searching a it were his very soul. "'Brit as I know yt7u dare not, brother—so —" hers, stretching his arm, be rang the bell—" I wish you a good morning ; I Will do nothing for you. Grey, show Mr. Vasper out." And thus the brothers parted. [TO DE CoNTINUED.3 COMMERCIAL COLLEGES. ; / 1.4 • v -- - IRON CITY COMMEfCIAL COLLEGE, Pittsburgh, Pa.—Charterrd, 1865.
