"I—Richard—it was an errand It is &Inc

worthless vagabond, as I have proved myself,
atmald be sacrificed, than that your pesos should
be endangered "
Millicent's heart sank within her; but she felt
that her duty to her nnfortnnste brother must
be paramount over all things. She reflected, too,
that Ric►,ard Crauford loved her, and hoped she
should find little difficulty in appeasing him
when the time for declaring all should come.—
Besides, she believed that he could not help sus
pecting the mystery must have reference to Phi
lip. though he would not hint at such in his high
and haughty sense of honor.
He sought her that evening. He had watch
ed her to the old haunt, and he watched her out
again, awl then strode after her and overtook
her in the street, as he had done the preceding
owe
"I said I would afford you an opportunity of
speaking to we to-Bight," he began, without
any previous salutation, and in a tone almost of
repulsion. "I am here to do it.
"And I cannot yet, Richard. You mast se
t. (lord we a little while longer; a few days."
"Nut a day, not another hour," he burst forth.
"If we part a,-night without full confidence be
tween us, •+e part for the last time."
"Richard," she uttered, clasping her hands
together and laying them on his arm in her agi
tation, "do not be b 0 harsh with me, do not be
so cruel: i assure you, as I would assert it in
the hearing of (leaven, that my going as I have
done to :lilt house in Port street, is no just cause
fur your breaking with me. You taught me to
love you, Richard; if you desert me, you remove
all I now have to live for' .
"Fine w"rds, flowery sentiments," he retort
ed, "but they possess more sophistry than reason.
I do not y -u, or have wished to do so; I
ask but fur your confidence, Millicent If you
wi ll not give it me, you drive me from you."
"I will give it you, Richard—after a little
wbile I would give much to be able to give it
you now.
"What prevents you?"
"Have confidence in me," ehe impi-,red, evad
ing his que.tion; "accord me yet a few days' de
lay Do n t see me before then, ,f you would so
wish it. Bit cherish no harshness against me,
for I do not deserve it "
"I am not a fool Millicent," ho bitterly said.
"You ask to he freed from my company that you
may pursue these iniquitous visits: it is impossi•
ble that they ell) be for any good And it is
equally impor•sible that • you can be milled upon
to indulge in any line of conduct which may not
be told to jour future husband. I think a spe
cies of madness must have overtaken you "
"Sorrow has overtaken me," she murmured,
"nothing else Can you not understand, Rich
4rd? There is a secret in this matter which is
- Rot mine."
"What if I promise to keep it? What is en-
other recourse. Indeed 1 will toil y o u l a t er "
"N,), - he said, "I shall never give you another
opportunity. We part uow fur ever
"Oh Rieh.ird, y.. 0 cannot mean it?" she tit
t-red, %-iee ,baking with emotion "Surely

"1 wit, send you your letters back to-morrow,"
he coldly repined, "to night it is too late; and I
desire that you will return me mine Adieu
Your way now lies one road and mine another."
-Hut it must not be," she sobbed, clasping
hie arm in Ler anguish. "I am to be your wife,
RieLar.l;._ you haresaid it "
"Ye , ," he answered, remaining quitestill, and
not arcking to push her hand away. "If you
will erplain your conduct, and I find you have
done nothing unworthy the future wife of an by
oraLt: man. C. n you do this, Millicent?"
She vessed i>otb her hands upon her throb
.
bing temples and again debated the question
with herself Her brother's safety,and her own
happiness and the good opinion of Richard Cran
ford; should she,risk the former for the latter?
Mr. Cranford watched her countenance and ita
signs of despair
Slowly she remobed her hp,pds, and mimed her
eyes to his, and essayed twice to speak before she
could get out the words
"Were appearances against you, Richard,"
she said, "and you Lid me wait and trust you, I
w.luld wait fur any length of time and trust you
still; for years, if you so wished it. I only ask
for a few days "
"Then you decline to explain," he answered
"That is your final answer?"
"It is so; toping my will
Le "
"Farewell to you," he sternly rejoined
"Henceforth we are strangers."
t ilts strode away rapidly in the direction of his
home—the new home he bad prepared fo7
e,:nt, and she sought hers with a bursting heart.
Two days after that, Philip quitted the town for
Liverpool, and, in about ten more, Millicent.re•
ceivesi miss oft his departure for Melbourne. She
then nt tho following note to Mr. Cranford:
-The.time is now come when I am released
from my obligation of secrecy. Give me an op
portunity of clearing myself in your mind, what
ever you may then decide uto our future. I
am and unhappy; du nut continue to cherish
re.sentment agaiu,t me.
To which the f.illowing answer came:
"DEAR Miss CRANE --When my son left for
New York (f“r which port he sailed three days
since, with the view of transacting business for
our firm, I he empowered me to open any letters
that night conic for him Hence your note Las

months; but if you wish, I will give yew his ad

my son informed we took place between you and

So there was nothing for poor Millicent bat
to wait, and-alternate between despair and hope.
But the present disappointment, combined with
the anxiety of mind ibe had lately endured,
threw her int.)a •langerous illness, which br Juglat

But not her spirits:, fat tha aso-sotsra and the
'Hulce of iliohatti Cranford *Seated her much.
It was the beginning of autumn before she pro.

and into a Ent-dams earrises "Masi you don't

rooms. Millicent, however, made her way to a
seat abe espied beyond the platform, a rude
bench, placed underneath a bank; and here she
sat, enjoying the be MA air of the awns* day
and occasionally vosiisiy. The near spreads of
a gentleman, as impasieut fellww-passenger; who
was strolling about, Gauged her to look up
A sudden shock fell ov er her: haw sot
what she did. The book was hastily dropped
upon the bench, and she, trembliwg all over,
took a step forward. For it was Richard Oran
funi.
"Richard:" she exclaimed, "is it redly you?
Do we meet here?"
, fle took her band with a cool air: he could
not avoid taking it, for dm in the impulse of the
moment, had bald it out* bin s sad the lose of

"You bave, retarget. fres America, thou?"
she uttered.
"I am on my way balk, now, from Liverpool,"
he replied; "we only made the pert yesterday.
Yon look ill, Wm Crum"
"I linve bees very ill Fines yon left," she
murmured, "sod have been all this summer in
Liverpool with my relations, for &sage of sir.
I am well now."
They stood lasing nob other, and them was a
silence. He trait the Est to break it, by saying
a few formal words of adtea,, and was about to
turn away. .
"Oh, but, Richard, you must bear me," she
exclaimed, a terror omniug over her lest they
were to pare again far as indelaiss period with
out an explanation. "I have sot yet had tbe
liartutlity of justifying myself tojos."
-I would rather not heat . it," he interrupted.
, Let whatever may have passed between us be
buried in silence. It is of nowommeptenee now."
"Dot I must tell you," she favariehly attilaint
ed. "I cannot let you go through life suspect
lag me of imprudenoe, or, perhaps, wickedness.
Are you aware who it was I went to en in that
wretched street? I thought---knowing what you
did know—that you muss have @imputed him at
that tune; and that was the oases of my terror."
"You are talking riddles to me," interposed
Mr. Cranford. "But I have no wish, and now
no right, to be made the tsonlidant of your private
affairs. It is too late."
"Oh yes, yes," sbe uttered in agitation. "1

"Do you mean your irothsr•Pbilip"' he asked,
fully aroused from his displayed indiffereaos.
"1 have no other brother," she replied;
"whom else should I mean? He had been in con
cealment ever since that dreadful stair in Lon
don, bad been reduced to the greatest straits, and
had curve down to ask my help to ship himself
of to Australia. Whilst he was hiding in that
room in Port-street, I was engaged collecting Lo
go her suffioient money for him. You will say,
perhaps, that I ought not to have visited him:
but he had no other friends in the world to cling
to him in his distress, and I believed that my
duty—as my love—lay in going to see and com
fort him."
"But, Millicent--though them is much that I
do not yet understand—why did you not confide
this to me?"
"Fast. of all, your own prohibition, tad /00-
Madly --..—."
"What prohibition?" interrupted Mr. Cran
ford "What are you talking of?"
Millicent, thinking his memory extraordinarily
oblivious, proceeded to recapitulate what passed
the night they first received wows af Philip's
guilt. She repeated—for she remembered—the
very words used by Mrs. Crane.
"Mrs. Crane purposely deceived you!" be ex
claimed. "She never mentioned the subject to
me. I assure you, Millicent, that, until this
moment, I did not know but what your brother
was still in his situation in London."
"Then what must you have thought of me?"
groaned Millicent: "of my stolen visits to that
undesirable street, and that strange sailor?"
"No matter, now, what I thought. You where
deeply to blame, Millicent; you ongkt not to have
deceived me." - -
"Oh Richard, if I might have told you! You
do not know bow I longed to do so: though I
believed yon could not hare failed to have a sus
pima of the true soorst. Asd Philip feared that
you, in your high sense of probrity and Loser,
might deem it incumbent on you to betray him
to justice. Would you have done so, Richard?"
"No," said Mr. Cranford. "I would have hel
ped him away—to fet the disgrace of his con
duct far from you'
"That day, when you came up, as I was read
ing the note in the street, which he in his'a.
guise had just put into my hands, I shouldpave
told you all, Richard, for I was greatly in,fe ed
of an adviser, but for the prohibition so falsely
imposed upon me by Mrs. Crane."
"Mrs. Craw, has much to answer for," bp is
turned, a strange, expression of bitter regret
arising to his quivering lips. "She has parted
us forever, Millicent."
"You do not—you will never think well of me
again?" she faltered.
"Yes I sheil," he said. "I shall think of you
again, and always, as the hist woman who las
ever crossed my path in life, who sus, and still
*sight to be, the dearest. But that Mali not be

They had been standing close to the bench,
neither having sat; but now Millicent sank down
upon it. In spite of her efforts se retain her
calmness, in his presence, at this saaosnossilast,
sbe felt the color forsake her parted lips, and her
frame began to shake as if she bad the ague.
"I thought you were irrevocably loot to me,"
proceeded Mr. Cranford, "tad my - feelings to

Millicent stood up again, She strove still for
calmness, though she knew that life's sunshine
was gone for ever. The bell was ringing for the
passengers to take their pbtoe, and she offered
her hand, in farewell, te Mr. Cranford.
"Aui I justified is your tumor' she Weak

He turned away to the platform, and Milli
cent slowly followed. She saw him bring out, a
lady, young and very bandsome, from the wait
ing-room, plate her in a carriage and follow her
in. Millicent found her way into another. As
the train moyed slowly past the station, Milli
°sot saw hstl'loo,k lying en the beach. She had
forgotten it, so it was lost. Lost! what mattered
that., or any other loss, to a heart, sick as hers
was, with its excess of anguish?
And so it is, in this world. That the commis

Their after destiny will form the materiels for
a sequel which will appear in our next.
A Win IN TsotritLx.—"Pray, tell me, my
dear, what is the sans, for those tears?"
"Ohl such disgrace! I have opened one of
your letters, supposing it to be addressed to my
self. Certainly it looked more like Mrs. than
Mr."
"Is that all? Whet harm can there be in a
wife's opening her husband's letters?"
"But the oontent's:--sueh disgrace!"
"What! has any one dared to write me a letter
wait for my wife to read"
"Oh, no. It is couched in the most chaste
language. But the disgrace!"
The husband eagerly caught up the letter and
commenced reading the epistle that had been the
means of nearly breaking his wife's heart.
Reeder, you couldn't guess the cause in a 'coon's

Toronto, and, agreeably to the time table, ex

hour and forty minutes. The Toronto Globe
says that the snow had been falling for some
twirl before the train started, and continued to

and shortly after leaving Oakville, the water fell
short, ate oars were detached, and the engine
proceeded to Port Credit, some six miles' off, to
take in a fresh supply. The snow still continu

the locomotive returned; and after several ef

t 4 move it, and the attempt was given up.
Meantime the passengers had been snowed up
in the oars, and were passing the time as they
best could. The neighboring fent*a furnished
an ample supply of firewood, and some

force a passage to Oakville, the station-master of

Picayune, dated Dee. 25, written from Lexing

"A daughter of a very worthy gentleman,
while riding on horseback to visit a neighbor,
was assaulted by a negro man, who made the
most hellish attempt to violate her person. She
struggled in his demoniac grasp until her strength

AN INDua SNAKa S'roay.—The Delhi (East
India) Gasette states that recently a peon in the
Tannah' near the College bridge observed a rat
run across the floor. He aseoped to look after
it, having his turban off and his back hair loose.
While in this position he suddenly felt as thought
some one were tugging him back by his hair
He put his hand up, and to his horror he found
there was a large odbra on his back, struggling
to free sta teeth from his hair, in which they had
got entangled. Probably the reptile had also
observed the rat, and had dropped from the roof,
imbued with as keen a love of hunting as the
peon himself. Be that as it may, the snake ul
timately succeeded in getting loose, and escaped
to a hole without inflicting any injury on the
man. By the orders of the dikief magistrate, the
plaee was pulled down the next day, and there,
sure enough, was theisnake, with the rat in his
stomach half digested.

There has been touch deteatios among railroad
trains in every direction, and in many instances

Where are the sassy smile, sad glee
Of youth's delightsome hosrs,
When, unconcerned, from duties free,
I coiled life's fairest lowers?
Al/lel:those joys have long autos flown
From Hope's delusive sphere,
Trophies of Time, whose 'pal,' are shown
In each progressive year'
Might I fa 'Lately mansions icro,
In marble halls might stand;
Have ad that love amt wealth c)uld give—
Aye, the woe,' at my command—
'Twould be too late, for Time and Eats
Have ravaged Youth's wht a page,
And the world would be no joy to me,
In deereptud• and age
Where rosily round my tempie crowned,
And the locks were thin and grey.
-The youngrru pride, would misdeeds,
And turn my rain array,
For love's adornment cannot. hide,
Nor beautify decay —
Then what matter , ' it, that songs of
Love, mellow wine. and flowers,
Are daily mine, when the Fuchs of Ttme
Reap fast the golden flours!
THE OUTCAST AND HER CHILD
A Story of the Snow Storm
"Every woe a tear oay
Except a fallen eister's shame.'
"A young female was found by the police,
wandering through the streets during the height
of the storm. She was bsre:ooted and had an in
fant in her arms. She was talen to the station
house "
Such is a brief paragraph that appeared in the
newspapers among the incidents oti thereoent se
vere snow storm, and which compressed within
four short lines a tale )f wretchedness and woe
more substantial, and infinitely more terrible in
its dreadful reality than the stories of the suffer
ings of love lorri damsels, and the troubles of
high born dames, with which he writers of ro
mance are wont to excite the sensibilities of their
readers. There are thousands who would shed
tears, free as rain, over the fictitious sufferings
of imaginary characters, who would peruse the
paragraph quoted above, perhaps, without giving
it a sympathetic pang for the barefoot mother
and her half naked babe, wandering. chafed to
the heart, through the deserted streets, while the
L~wltngstormenveloping them in a snowy shroud
as though making teem ready for the grave
which they must soon have found had they not
obtained shelter
How bad the task to look baek at the history
of the "young female . ' of the newspaper para
graph How fondly she was loved by her mo
ther, and how little did the doting parent—who
anticipated her every wish, who Carefully shield
ed her from pain and from harm, who watched
her anxiously as she grew from prattling baby
hood to girlishness, and who felt pride and love
glowing in her heart as she saw the slender girl
ripening into the blooming woman—how little
did that doting mother dream of her pet Sunder
ing through the streets—with the child of shame
In her arms—through a furious winter storm,
with no covering for her feet, and no roof for
her head.
In this instance it was the. "old tale so often
told." The winning face and the bland smile,
with the serpent under the mask—and when,
by smile and deceit the victim was &ciliated to
her ruin, and her weak heart was made captive,
and her reputation stung to death, she was left
to follow it to the grave alone or live on and
bear her burthen of shame, and support her lit
tle one as best she might. As usual there was
scant charity for the fallen creature, and tne poor
deceived and deserted dupe sought temporary
relief fir her sorrows in strong drink Thi4 bad
rec .urse at best, only plunged her still deeper
int) the abyss of ruin.
It would be a sad story—could its details be
laid bare—the pregres. of that broken and
ed woman from toe time she took her first step
in her downward career, until toe police found
her wandering aoout with an infant in her arms.
Those who were in their own warm homes on
that rough night and wb, took a shuddering
glance through their lace curtains,at the furious
storm without, can form but a fee)ole notion of
the sufferings of the barefoot muster and her
famishing child. Let those who have dreamed
of flying half naked fruoi their blazing dwel I lop,
and of saving nothing from the wreik of liuwe
but the babe in their arms; let them bat imsgine
that the flames had devoured up everything—
home, friends, reputation, hop,—all—and if
they will but fancy that the wintr) storm comes
down fast and furious when ruin overtakes them,
and they are tnrown desolate an I friendless into
the streets, with their helpless babe—th ea they
may conceive the enfferuage of this wretched out
cast barefoot mother, with her shivering cuarge
hugged eloee to her breast.
There is certainly something radically wrong
in the social system that suffers such things
The eillian who accomplished ail this ruin es
capes nnwhipt of justice, and pee through the
world seeking new victims, while hi. dupe and
his child are spurned by society, and are ouly
rescued from death in one frikatful shape to find
it perhaps in some other form equally terrible
There are many sad stories of long suffering
hidden in short paragraphs, and the newspaper
reporter is apt to learn in his professional expe
rience that each day there are scenes enacted in
the great Drama of Real Life that for pathos and
terror shame the creations of the twist successful
writers of fiction. To our thinking the barefoot
woman and her child in the streets, in such a
storm as that of Saturday night, realise as pro
found a depth of wretchedness and destitution as
ever Dickens portrayed or Hood sang of —Phil

DISGUSTING BARBARITY —The following par
agraph from an English paper, received by the
last steamer, gives a slight idea of one of the
popular amusements of "memo England:—"lt
i s not often that in the quiet little towp of Ac
crington we have to record such disgusting pro
ceedings as those which it is now our duty to lay
before the public, and which occurred on Sunday
last.. On that day, early in the forenoon, hun
dreds of persons mightbe seen hastening towards
a large common, caned Ilambleton, to witness a
wrestling match between two young men—Rich
ard Riley and James Hacking—the latter bet
tiug 30s. to 20s. In due time all the prelimina
ries were arranged, there being hundreds of spec
tators. Hacking stripped naked,- with the ex
ception of his stockings, and to work they went,
pulling each other about as a tiger would his
prey, for about an hour and five minutes, when
they both gave up, neither being victorious.—
Hacking's body presented a frightful spectacle;
the blood was running down in several Owes,
and in many others the flesh was torn from his
bones, and;hung like meat on Butcher?' books.
The crowd, while this barbarous work en going
on, sOouted at timea.and urging on the, combat
abut. Daring all the time this was going on, net
a policeman was present; sad it does appearsome
what strange that such disgusting seers as the
above described can take place, and our police,
of whom wo so much boast, not hear one word
about it. After the wrestling was over, many of
the crowd began playing at pitch and toss, and
this Irak wee carried ea newly tLe'whale day,
and cured so is the sasabirtsiali Jaariastia
eery &today to a great extent."
