MY AUNT' RACHEL
-Thelir,t time I ever 1411 W Aunt Rachel was '

— bur ever - and' my
fat her sent the Aunt Rachel to come and mind
her. She arrived at Ilawilforne hue in the
evening of a bleak November day,. bringing '
comfort, and 'almost - happiness. 1 remember'
her tom, just is she stood' within the dimly
lighted parlor, the ta imson folds of her shawl..
feting around her tall, elegant form; and the
single white feather, turning gracefully over
her bonnet of plain drab.• Everything that
pertained to Aunt ltnchel possessed tt
dhitinet grace—a grace like nothing else in life; '
I was sitting, half hidden by the 'drapery of
it whitlow, weeping bitterly ; for (hey told me
that any mother had, but a little while 6 to live;
and' With . nll a young child's outgushing affec
tion, 1 was nigh heat 1-ht °ken.
Aunt Rachel come towards nut; and drew me
gentirto 'her side. •

• Alary's opiniage," she said, in her low,
nielodiens tones; ,• my child, I sun your nun
tiler's only sister.,-your Aunt Rachel. • Aro
you glad that I
. haveconic?"-
She looked into my eyes with a smile pecu
liarly her own ; I could only tln•ow my arms
around her neck. and murmur over the Ilitll.o.
Which 1 had.s, arcelv learned, but which, from
the very first, hid Amend so very sweet to um.
" Aunt Rachel! Dear Aunt haubel !"
She:kissed me very softly, and then glided
away up stairs to my inother's chamber. I.
saw her no more until the next morning, at ,
breakfast ; and her sail, sweet image daguer
reotype(' itself upon my memory forever.
• • AMU. Rachel was not old—she could not
have been more than twenty-seven. In form,
she was above the medium height in wonten,
slender and graceful. Her complexion was
clear,' almost transparent; mud a shadoW — of
suffering lay darkly upon her forehead, and
lingered far back in the_dopths of. her soft,
hazel oyes:--Her hair_ was 'wreathed around _
her bend in glossy waves of brown; and afuw
stray,looks which had eseapectithm their.con
tinement, fell over her neck in.shining

to come again for n Visit in early summor
