THE DAILY POST.
MARIANNE ESTERLING.
If you have a dog, an attached and beautiful
animal, which is the companion of all your
walks, eats from your hand, and sleeps by your
feet— which.has fondness for none but yourself,
and bounds with joy at a word or a look from
you—if this creature is suddenly lost, do you
not mourn with a grief greater than you would
tike to o , nfes.t, but which is shown by the mag
nitude cf the reward you offer for its restoration,
by y, ur anxiety, and by your joy when It is
brought Lack to you with all its gladness and of
fection 4 With how much more sorrow would not
ode, and tspc,:ally one that character we have
eadeavorod to shadow forth under the name of
basil May, iatc.,ot the lots of a fair child, a pure
and noble being. whose love is the effect of bright
reason, not of instinct, who possesses high men
tai beauty in addition to coporeal grace, whose
thoughts and deeds are the result, not of the
mere principle of animal life, but of an ever
living 80111 I It was in:teed with much emotion
they parted—and Basil, as he kissed his forehead
and bade him farewell, felt there was taken from
him the only one to whom his heart had ever
warmed in friendship.
But the pang of parting lies not in saying
adieu ; it comes to its full strength some time
afterwards ; for the image of the object is ec
recent in your mind that you cannot at first com-
BUTTONS, ETII,
pletely feel its absence. But when a space has
elapsed, and your thoughts have had time to
settle—when the idea comes plainly before you
that he or she, your friend or your love, is gone
and will return no more—not till then do you
feel yourself desolate, nor till then does the full
tide of your borrow gush upon your heart.
For some days Basil was so shaken in his mind
as to be utterly unable to go through his work in
the school, a fact which be stated to Mr. Elder
ley, who, thinking him unwell, for he was always
nervous and delicate in health, recommended
him to take exercise, and willingly relieved him
from his duties, himself undertaking them.
He now gave his time to wandering about the
neighborhood, lingering alone on the sunny days
in those scenes where he had rambled, making
himself a very boy, playing with his childish fa
vorite and friend, and of evenings poring sadly
over those books out of which he had instructed
him.
This lasted for many days ; at last it was bro
ken up, and by an affair of business, a propo
sition from the company of chemists before al
luded to. They stated that, as their works,
which were daily increasing in extent, were be
ginning to be coufini,d for want of space, thy
were desirous of adding to them his ground and
the buildings upon it, and were willing to buy
them at the rate of ten years' purchase according
to the annual rental before the erection of their
manufactory, or, if he preferred it, to admit him
as a partner, with that amount of share in the
concern.
He immediately called upon his agent, direct
ing him to close with the former proposal, and
take the money—intending to purchase with it
a life annunity, one-half of which he should
continue to pay to hie wife
He was now independert again, and his inten
tentiiin was to return to his former way of liv
ing, and become an idle wanderer in the world;
for, now that Gerald was not by, his thoughts
continually reverted to her in Scotland ; anti,
while he was actuated by a strong curiosity with
regard to what had become of her during his
long absence, yet he felt as strong an impulse as
ever to dee from her, presence, and actually
trembled lest the transaction of disposing of his
property might give her a clue whereby tfind
out where he was, and, by lettere or personal
interviews, once mora rake up all the agonies
that were now subsided and calm, though un
fathomable in hie mind.
On his return to the school to notify Mr.. El
derly his future intentions, be found a letter
from Gerald awaiting him. It stated that the
occasion of his being suddenly called away was
the severe illness of his grandfather, which had
terminated in death two days after his arrival at
home. It was not the intention of his friends to
send him again to school, it continued, but to
engage for him a private tutor, who should re
side in the house.
The moment May read this, an idea struck
him. He was now altogether his own master
once more—again without an aim in life. It
mattered little where he went, nr what he did,
provided time glided away—might be not go
and apply for this situation Mr. Elderly would
give him every recommendation ; and it was
surely as well to employ a year or two of his
time in the instruction of this boy—an eniph_s
- which had formerly yielded him so much
pleasure—as in idly wandering from place to
place. If he did obtain the situation, be would
enjoy the society of the only one for whose !m
-oiety he had ever cared—he would have in his
own hands the guidance, the rearing, of that
child whose ultimate welfare was the object of
his deepest interest, and could keep him out of
the way of evil till he was old enough to bold
that guard himself. If he did not obtain it, he
could at least once more see one to whom he
bora so strong an attachment, and gratify the
curiosity he could not help feeling as to the
characters and appearance of hie friends and his
home.
Gerald's letter contained his address, a villa
on the south coast of Eagland, opposite the Isle,
of Wight ; and it was described in such plaits•
terms that there Wil9 no chance of his being
unable to find it out.. With a letter of recom
mendation then from Mr. Elderly he took his
way southwards, and on the morning of a day
in summer found himself close to the villa.
His impression from its exterior aspect was
that the inhabitants must be very wealthy ;
there was an air of comfort and substance about
the house, garden, and offices, that betokened
ine e k ey retirement. With a heart palpitating
from embarrassment he walked up the avenue
and knocked at the door, which the next instant
was pulled open by his own little favorite, who
all but jumped into his arms. He had seen hie
approach, from an upper window, and bad flown
to meet him. In eager haste he drew him past
a sluggish-looking servant into a room where,
with the tears of joy starting in his eyes, he re
do (bled question on queetitn—why he had left
the school?—had he come to see him only?—
how long could he stay?
Basil told him he had received his letter, and
had come to apply for the situation of tutor—
that be never intended to go back to the school
again.
At this information Gerald did all but scream
fur gladness, and bounded away up stairs to in
form his mother that the usher who had been so
good to him at Mr. Elderley'e was come to be
his tutor, with that gentleman's recommenda
tion In a minute he returned to lead him to
her presence.
As they entered the room Basil perceived it
was a very magnificently furnished apartment.
One object that caught his eye was a large por
trait iu oil colors, in a very rich frame, which
appeared to have been removed from the wall,
and now stood on the floor, placed back against
a kind of temporary easel At a table near one
of the windows eat a lady in a mourning dress,
employed in drawing, apparently copying the
picture.
He blushed, from his natural bashfulness, and
advanced, looking at the floor. When he raised
his eyes he saw the lady standing up, holding
fast to the table, seemingly to preserve her bal
ance, as one would do in a ship at sea, while
several 'of-the drawing materials lay upset on
the carpet beside her. Ho was surprisedat this,
looked at her intently, and the next instant
droPped into a chair from sudden powerlessness,
whilst the blush of confusion upon his face
changed to a fearful pallor.
They remained so for a apace—at length, " Is
it you?" she said, slowly, and in a voice low,
thrilling and strange, as if not she, but some
third invisible being spoke.
"Have you found me "" was all he could ar
ticulate in reply.
Yes. it was she—hie wife—it was Marianne !
But-what is it that brings that .unnatriral livid
tinge to his lips and the space round his eyes--
that makes hiin shake as if a cold wind had
- pim'cod him, and breathe grievingly as if there
vr,Ls some constriction in the, throat? It is the
fe tturee of the abhorred Vi'arkworth, staring
upon him out of that portriAit in all their manly
