From that hour he constituted himself
Eleanor guardian. Finding that

innocent loveliness should never tw aban

IVhat should he do with her ? Ile wa's a
bachelor, and had no home to °MT her.—
She was but fifteen or sixteen , so he
could not ask any of his freinds to marry
her, even if he had 'regarded any of them
as being worthy of her. She was dying of
grief and loneliness. Finally he bethought
him of a boarding-school; and that she mull
remain in one for two or three year, and
in that time some of his motherly female
freinds would be found to give her their
eminsel and countenance

As Ralph Fn. thinking about her one

never seen such a face, nor felt the graces

features, and eyes and lips of a rich and
brilliant bea l uty, a form whose every con
tour was perfect, and every motion natu
rally elegant, hair black and profuse, she
stood before him like an ernimation of the
music, whose living soul' she seemed
to be.
" Is this Eleanor Bond ?" asked, after
a moment's pause.
He knew that it was her, before she an

Uncertainty—yet, even then. he had
thought her extremely lovely. Now, she
was happy, elegantly dressed, self-assured,

She recognized him, too.

band in late.
She had been about tosay' " My dear

-she looked now as if she wished to clasp her
arms about his neck; but she did not know
how he would receive such imprmions.
He might wish to he only Mr. Goldstone
to her, though gratitude, and the want of
any other freind or relatiSe, made him
seem all to her. Smiles and blushes light
ed up her countenance—admiration and
pleasure beamed in her eyes. It gave
Ralph Goldstone entirely new sensations
to find this young creature •so loving, so
grateful—looking up to him for sympathy.
:advice, affection. The physician, the stu
dent,- the man of science, was no more.
Crucibles, telescopes, magnetic batteries,
were to him as if they never had been.
His heart was in a glow such as no grosser
'fire could kindle ; he had discovered two
;new worlds in her eyes,' and magnetic
`attractions in every glance and touch.
' ; One more philosopher had forsaken theco
'ries for the intuitions now for the first time
;awakened in his breast.
That evening, In a privateinterriew per
mitted by the Principal, he told Eleanor
that if she were tired of her books,' and
wished to go out into the world, he stood
ready to offer her the only protection
which society allowed in its prudence—he
would make her his wife. His voice
trembled as he spoke the words ; he felt
how tender and precious its meaning was.
Eleanor looked down at her little foot,
Which* was patting the carpet, cionfuetdly.
Blushes and tears were on her cheeks, for
she was excited, and a little frightened.
But her heart was not moved like that of
the strong man's before her. She knew
that her beauty had thus early made at
eahle.oonqtaest, and she was flattered she
saw that her guardian was handsiiine as
romance itself could desire, and she was
pleased ; she knew that be was wealthy,
and her ambition was aroused ; she felt
that he was good and honorable, and she
iniagr:ried that she loved him—or should
love him soon. So she promised to become
his Wife.

had just, with one of the restless move•

The discovery which had been the result
of Ralph tioldstone's experiments upon the
evening so disustrotis to his happiness, had
been the manufacture of diamonds ; not
in minute crystals, such a. a French chem
ist has since produced, but of a size and
beauty to suit himself. It was with this
glorious piece. of information that he had
sought the bedside of her who was to re
pose in his arms no longer; and his most
joyfu'., ino.t eager thought had been
- Now, my darling shall have a tiara such
as only queens are accustomed to wear."
And let it stand as one proof of how little
wealth weighs hi the balance of happiness
against the emotions of the heart, when
we state that for days after that lorrovving
night, the memory ofhis discoverg, and his
consequent unlimited fortune, never re
curred to the Doctor
. It may be that if the fair and faithless
Eleanor had tarried that l one night more,
she would never have ail.serted her hus
band ; for beauty loves the added power
which immense wealth can confer upon it.
It must be evident to all, that it was not the
coldness of her companion, nor his pre-oc
cupied habits, which influenced her to give
her affections elsewhere, so much as it was
bewildered vanity, so giddy with the flat
teries paid to such unequaled loveliness,
that it could no longer behold in their right
aspect the duties and pleasures of life.
Iler beauty' has been her ruin," mur
mured Ralph, and he cursed that beauty in
his heart—the graco of that lovely bend, the
swell of that white breast, the infantine
dimples in those arms, that had bean such
a chain about his neck to bind him to her
Will—he cursed all. for her take. even more
hiss friends never spoke to Dr. Goldstone
of the "misfortune" which had befallen his
house ; there was ir look in his face which
forbade it. They did not dare to express
even covert sympathy ; nor to inquire the
why and wher*re of the steps which he
subsequently took.
His beautiful mansion and all its furni
ture were offered for sale without reserve ;
and met with generous bidders, too, when
they were auctioned away, for the world
loves scandal a little better than it does
dinner (which is saying a great deal) and it
was fashionable thereafter among fashion
able people to have some articles of vertu
which had once belonged to—(sp.k it in
a whisper) the 'unmentionable Mrs. E—
G—. It has been asserted with consid
erable show of truth, that that paragon of
virtue, Mis. Potiphar, of our first families,
was so successful ai to obtain at a very high
price the discarded tooth brush of Mrs. E
—G----, which she has placed in a glass
box Which adorns her cabinet of curios. She
probably intended it " to point a moral and
adorn a tale," which should warn her daugh
ters when they grew up, for no one can be
so uncharitable; as to suppose that any love
of a rich little tid-bit of gossip bestowed the
relish which worked down the price of the
dainty article. . .
After disposing of his city property, Dr.
Goldstone took his little Rosalind and went
otf on a journey ; not to Europe, the men
tion of which was hateful to him, but to
Cuba and South America. In the latter
.country he botanized, and made some val
uable discoveries of medical plants. An
old nurse who had been a servant in his
mother's household, went with him to take
charge of the child. After an absence of a
year and a half, he returned to the banks
'of a lovely and secluded little lake in the
central part of the State of New York,
where he purchased the country-seat of a
gentleman who was going away.
Spacious and beautiful as this already
was, he was continually making additions
to it. lie had a few neighbors, the occu
pants of the surrounding villas, who regard
ed him as a very singular and a very inter
esting man ; but, however great their cu
riosity might be to enter certain portions°
the mansion which they had heard were
furnished with strange taste and splendor,
they seldom got beyond the great receiving
room, or the library back of it. Occasion
ally's favored guest was surprised and de
lighted by an invitation from the host to
see for himself the truth of some question,
botanical or mineral, or social or what not,
that they might be discussing, and would
.be led into a garden, which in the winter
time held under its glass roof all the glories
;of the tropics—or into a suite of rooms

.Itomanuge of luxury ; or be called to welk
in a minature forest sweet with the music
of every known singing bird. Only one
strange omission there was to the general
magnificenoe--there were no mirrors.
Ralph Goldstone had come to the con
clusion derived from his better experience,
that beauty was a curse to a woman. He
blow& It pained him to see that the pretty
Rosalind was the image other mother, and
could not fail to be as beautiful. That he
was self-deceived is evident from the het
that his eyes were not more helmeted than
his heart by her every ohermaingfeature and
bewitching motion. She had 41 the grace,

We sai din the
_beginning that old Dr
Goldstone had a std. daughter; yet at
the period of wtdeh wear now writing ! , he
was but little over forty years of age. A
night of sorrow had blanched his hair, Find
the form which was once as firm as it war'
stately, stooped slightly ; the face was yet
handsome. It was more the dress and man
ner of the Doctor than anything in his ap
pearance, saving hisgray hare which made
people call him old.
His precious discovery he kept a pro
found secret.

lie had negotiated privately with the
Emperor of Russia and,several other of the
crowned heads ef Europe, and derived enor
mous revenues from the sale of his dia
monds. His plan was to employ an agent,
who took them first to the Orient and at
lected to purchase them of the Bagdad
merchants, then truniporte them to Eu
rope, and fill orders.
He had added to his first success by learn
ing to impart a lovely hue to such jewels as
he wished. He had also learned to think
that too much beauty, like too much gold,
was dangerous ; and to resolvt, that Rosa
lind should have no knowledge of her pros
pests for either. People knew that he was
wealthy, and had inherited wealth ; but
they-had no inkling of the power he pos
sessed, nor of the princely income which
was really his.
So here was a little girl being trained up
by a man, and what was worse, by a phdcrio
pher. He was going to bring her up in ig
norance of her beauty, instead of teaching
her that self-control and dignity which
would have overcome its temptations
without heeding that some time the knowl
edge moat come to her, and find her unpre
pared, that the voice of flattery, when beard
for the first time, would be doubly sweet.
He was going to keep her as much out of
society as possible, so that when she did
finally go into it—at a time, too, when she
might be deprived of his fatherly protec
tion—she would be as ignorant of its falsi
ties as she was innocent, So wise in human
nature was Dr. Goldstone, the experienced
physician, the distinguished botanist, the
chemist who invented diamonds ! •

to make faces at herself in the mirrors, and
