bhjor Harburn lived the life of a hermit in his
por old dwelling of (lien Bars. His wife, the
daughter of his colonel, had died some sixteen
years before, and as he at over the fire on winter
nights, a confusion sometimes came into his bead
between the maiden he had loved so ardently at
home, and the gentle Canadian girl, whom be
had married, and who had left him so soon.--
Their features got mixed on the wondrous can
vass, whereon our fancy paints the incidents of
the past: for Fancy has more to do with the
scenes of our joyous youth, than mere prosaic re
eolleetion. Imagination and memory are twins,
and amazingly like each other. Sometimes he
took a medisative ride over the scene of his early
happiness, and wandered with loosened rein and
thoughts flying far back into the past, among
the fields of Felder Mains. George Clegborn

his attention was attracted by an unusual bustle
at the door of that usually quiet and deserted
mansion. There was a post-chaise in the stable- j
yard, there was s gig on the lawn; and pacing in I
front, were two men measuring t he ground, and
one man still perched is the gig, was taking down
the number of feet., as ascertained by the ,
measurer's tape; all the windows were open, the ,
hall-door was wide ajar. There were men in the
dillereat rooms making a great noise with hale
mere, and trundling about of old chairs and sofas.
The major dismounted, and for the first time for
five and thirty years, entered the well-known
house. Alas! that stone and mortar, timber and
grass, even paint and paper should remain so un-
I chaned when time had such an effect upon our
noble selves. There was the old piano, there
wen the oaken chairs, here were the glazed prints,
all recognisable; and standing among them all,
bent in the back, dim in the eyes, short in the
breath, and bald on the head—more out of tune
than the piano, more old-hishioned than the
furaituro—was Charles Harbors, whom nobody
could identify with the young lover of other
days—no, not his mother, if she were still alive
—no, nor Nancy, who once had all his features
by heart--scarcely indeed himself if he had mad
denly seen in the glass, some morning when he
was shaving, the presentment of the merry-eyed

army
It was not • pleasant visit and he turned to
go. In the paimage were three or four people
rrying parcels, work-buses, foot-stools, and other
things; and he drew back to let them pass. The
post-chaise was drawn up to the door. He beard
a voice say: "You'll pack up all the framed
pictures, and send them to my address et
Cheheehaw. The prints are to be taken at a
valuation." And the major saw the speaker
mount into the chaise with some difficulty. Her

enough and high enough to have done duty es an
umbrella; she wore a brow, velvet pelisse, theme'

kept in his head. "Sir Douglas Brand has

He heard nothing, saw nothing, but sat immove
