Poor Mrs. Lincoln, how I pity herl' ex
diimed Mrs. Merry c, as she turned her
eyes from the tedy in question, to address
a gentleman who had jus: taken a seat bo
lide her.
Why so! replied Mr. Howard; she
does not look in a very pitiable condition,
at the prespni moment at least, wi:h her
smiling face, her glittering turban, and her
elvet dress.
Look again, said t'.e lady, ani you
wCl see that she is in a perfect fever of
impatience and anxiety. Her mouth
smiles it is true, but look at her eyes roll
ing in a fine phrenzy between my Kate,
who is talking to that fashionable" ro wdv,
1St. Clair, and her own prettv, over dressed j

In some respects she may be, yet she
seems to fail in attaining what she ets her
heart most cpon. She tries her best to
fOrein her husband he walks the even
tenor of his way, allowing her to fret and
fume and mamEuvre as she may. Anoth

forces to girl to undertake the part she ,
rishes her to play, and then wonders at i

chdd, almost crushed under the load of
finery with which her mother has bediz
ened her.
-Mr. Howard looked in the direction in-
it r su,ueu as ne orveti tne gen- ; mother s plans. When the truth at last
tie brow of Lhe pretty Flora overshadowed j dawned upon her, it came with such stun
by a ponderous wreath, which would have j ning force that, as the liht from the open-
uuee truauie ?ouees oi mg ooorci iheirhome gleamed upon her
spring her slender arms weighed down daughter's face, Mrs. Lincoln was shocked
with their multitudinous bracelets, and her j at the -ha
peute ngure flounced to the waist, until its
symmetry was destroyed in the profusion
of drapery. Extremely diffident by na
tare, she was at that moment shrinking
-still more from notice, to conceal the blush-
- es that were raanUing on her cheek, from
-pleasure in the s-aciety of one she secredy
,: preferred.
But you were about telling me of a love
- affair were yoa not! aid Mr. Howard.
Nay, I know nothing about it. I only
. surmise from Flora's conscious looks that
she prefers young Marston, whose only
-fzultis that he is poor; and from her moth
er's fidgets and manoeuvres, that she has
fixed her heart upon St. Clair, whose only
irtue is that he is rich and fashionable,
and who so sadly misuses the gifts wiih
""hich kind nature has endowed him, that
" 3 sensible woman would wish him for a
" 2n-in-law.
" r k 'owari3 'besides, fortune and
- fashion ia these days are not so much de
'ed. even by sensible people; and if St,
J Clair is a little wild, why a pretty, cende
- -wife, would be just the very thing for him.
So I am for the maich decidedly,' and with
gay laugh Mr. Howard moved through
the crowd.
Flora Lincoln had looked forward to
this ball with intense pleasare, for she
knew that she would then meet with one
who rarely mingle J in such scenes, and hoar in the iday, and every minute of lhe
who for some unknown reason had sel- j hoar. She Was a fond mother, bat one

whose determination that her dauslitr i her life, in fact, was that of irivin dire;-
should take a prominent place among the
belles of the season, often forced her into
positions she felt to be both ridiculous and
painful. Mrs. Lincoln had no idea of the
possession of a single gift of nature, of ac
complishment, of education, save for the
purpose of display. To shine was all her i
aim, and shine Flora must and should j her proper sphere, like some eccentric

now stood before her a worldly schemer,
wno nau avowea nerse:i ready to sacrince
her daughter's happiness to her own am

trust if her's had failed! Even the thought
of Marston brought no relief. She knew
that she loved him, but had she any proof
that he loved her in return! none but kind
looks and gende words and tones, which
perchance he might give to others, as well
as to her. So Flora at daylight sought
her neglected coach, as utterly miserahle
as one so innocent could be.
Mrs, Lincoln's nature was one that
