'No, no, Lowndcs,' answer&l Mr. Gil
mer, in reply to some question which the
f.rmer had made, his friend touching the
accomplishnients of his bride elect. 'No,
•no; you will find Miss Vivian very differ

at my age, -- who know the world, know that
talents and accomplishments are net the
first qualities to seek in a wife.. Freshness
of heart and,minddiaivette and disinterest

Mr. Lowndes,-who was also mature in

at his friend's warmth, while he smiled as
he thought of the disinterestednesa that'

said, • •

the principal part.
'Are you quite satisfied, sister, with' this
engagement of Charlotte's?: asked Miss
Lawrence, with some anxiety.
'Perfectly,' replied Mrs. Vivian, 'more
than satisfied. Mr. Gilmer's fortune and

I desire?'
'He is that, certainly, replied her sister,
'but I confess I wish that the disparity of

'Beside,". continued Mrs. Vivian, scarce

if it were to end so soon,' she.continued.

I should think that even you would be tir

for one quiet-dinner and evening at home.'
• 'I agree with you,' she returned, 'the
dinners' are bores.' To be obliged - te.sit

spirit quickly fired at seeing her darling
child thwarted, and she said with a feeling
more riatural than judicious in a mother in

•turned triumphantly to her husband to say
'that mamma would take her to Mrs. John

object to the arrangement, little as he liked
it; but thus Mrs. Vivian laid the founda
tion of a dislike between her son-in-laii•
mid self that' took root to flourish and .

Mrs. Vivian calling soon after on her
daughter, found her poring over a large
volume most intently.
'What are you reading, Charlotte ?' in
quired her mother.
'Oh she said, tossing the book 'from

to her mother, 'that just as I have Tleft

The birth of a.tlaughter at length opened
new feelings and hopes': to the parents ;
and the thought that .Mr.lnier. could no
londer_treat her as a child, and require her
-to:study and read, added.not a-little to the
I happiness -
_that flashed in Charlotte's-e-y-e:
as she kissed her baby with-:rapture ; and
the quiet brit deep satisfaction with - which
Mr. Gilmer contemplated his child, was
partly founded , in the, expectation, 'that
Charlotte, in assuming the duties and fee
lings of a mother, would sink the giddi 7 :
ness of the girl in the steadiness of thelwo-:
u t little
ing that youth and nature were thus to be
cheated of their privileges by the assump
tion of the responsibilities of maturer age.
That Charlotte loved her infant with the
liveliest affection, is true ; but it was
rather the playful fondness of a child for
its plaything thati.the passionate love of a
mother for her first-born ; and although
she would delightedly feddle the infant
for a few minutes, yet .easily terrified by
the cries of the little creature, drawn • forth
by the awkward handling of its inexperienc
ed parent, she would quickly resign to
the soothing cares of its nurse, who, in
fact, dreaded the sight of Alto yoUng moth
er in the . . nursery. Once, indeed, after
having been admonished and lectured by
her husband on her •new duties •and re
sponsibilities, she took it in. her head, a
the iminent rick of life and limb of her
child, to wash and dress it herself, and
which was most terrified:under the opera
tion, mother or child, it would be diflieult
•
to say ; and very soon she resumed her
usual routine of life, only varied by occa
sional visits, to her nursery. Mr. Gilmer,
disappointed by the change he had hoped
to see in her character and twee; became
more impatient and less yielding than be
fore. •Had he, in the indulgent spirit that
should have . accompanied his age and
knowledge of the world, given way to
the joyous spirits and excitable feelings
natural to her youth, he would have won
to himself a heart naturally warm and af
fectionate, at the same time that he quench :
ed her ardent love of pleasure in' satiety.—
But, too selfish to put that constraint on
himself, he expected at once that calm,in
difference in society, in a •girl
,of scarce
eighteen,.that was in himself the result of
twenty-five years' devotion to the frivoli
