LYDIA JANE THE REPOSIT ORY. Isabella and her Sister Kate and their Cousin. Mistakes and misunderstandings aro not such bad things after all, at least nut always so; circumstances alter cases. I remember a case in point. Every body in the country admired Isabella Edmunds, and in truth she was an admirable creature, just made for admiration and sonneteering, and falling in love with, and accordingly all in the county of was in love with her. The columns of every Argus, and Iferald, and Sentinel, and Gazette, and Npectutor, and all manner of newspapers, abounded with the effusions supplicatory and declaratory, of her worshippers; in short, Miss Isabella was the object of all the : spare "ideality" in all the region round about. Now, I shall not, inform my res 'peeled readers how she looked, you naafi• just think of a Venus, a Psyche, a Madan. na, a fairy, an angel, and so forth, and you ‘vif have n very definite idea on the point. 1 must run on with my story. I am not n'iout to thous° this angel for say heroine, because she is too handsome, and too much like other heroines for my purpose. Hut Miss Isabella had a sister, and I think I shall take her. 'Little Kate,' for she was always spoken of in the diminutive, was sonic years younger than her sister, and somewhat shorter in stature. Sho had no pretentious to beauty— none at all —vet _there was a something, a certain—ln short, sir, she was very much like Mrs. A. or Miss G. whom you admire so much, though you always declare she is nut baud wane. It requirca a very peculiar talent to be overlooked with a g , ani grace, nod in this ittlet.t Alfts.3.' . .E.atelexcellvd.

No one of Isa bella's adorers ever looked at her with such devout admiration as did the laughter loving Kale. No one was so ready to run, wait and tend—to be up stairs and down stairs, and every where in ten minutes, when Isa• twilit was dressing for congtiest ; in short, she wag, as the dedications of hooks set forth, her ladyship's most obedient, most devoted servant. But if 1 am going to tell you my story I must not keep you all night looking at pictures; so now to my tale, which I shall commence in tile mariner and form follow ing : It came to pass that a certain college val edirtoritm and a far otr cousio of the tw( sisters, came down to spend a few month of los free agency at their falter's ; and, a aforesaid, he had carried off the first cone gime honor, besides the hearts of all the la dies in the front gallery at the last cum mencelta•nt. So ill to rest ing ! sn poetic ! such fine eves, and all thut, was the reputation he left with the gentler sex. Itin alas, poor Edward, what did this al: advantage him? so long as he was afflicted with that unutterable, iu describnble malady, commonly rendered bashlulhess—a worse nullifier than any ever heard of is Carolina- Should you see him in company you would really supp, so him ashamed of his temarkably handsome per son and cultivated mind. When he begat] to speak. you felt tempted to throw open the witictiw and o&r him a smelling bottle, lip made such a distressing anir of it; and to speak to a lady I the thing %vat not to be thought of. When Kate heard that this 'rura apix' was coming to her father's she was unae countably ioterested to see bun, of course— becauso ho - was bur cousin, and !Wl:Hulse— dozen other things too numorous to men ion. Ile came, and was, for one or two days an object of commiseration, as well us ad rniration, of the whole family circle. After a while, however, he grew quite a domes tic ; entered the room straight forward, in stead of stealing in sideways—talking off whole sentences without stopping—Lioking Miss Isabella full in the face without blush ing -,—even tried his skill at sketching pat terns, and winding silk—read poetry, play ed the flute with the ladies—romped and frolicked with the children, and in short, as old John obseri;ed, was u book !rum norhing till, night: Divor€i reports bpann to sproad abroad the neighborhood, nod grant confusion was heard in the camp of M iss Isabel!a's admi rers. It was stated with veal precision, how many times gut had ridden—walked L-talked, tegetheitiiid7avetratt they had - said. In "Shcirtr ilia' whole neigh hurl' ch;d was full of "That strange 'knowledge that loth come We know nut how—wo know not where.' As for Kate, she always gave all admi rers to her sister, ex officio ;so she thought 'that of 01l tlmmen , she,had ever seen, she could like cousin Edwaid .best fora broth or,' and she did hope Isabella would like him as much as she did and for some rea son or other her speculations were remark ably drawn to this point; at.d yet for some reason or other, she felt as if she could not ask any quest ious about it. At last, events appeared to draw towards a crisis. Edward became more and more “brown studious' every day, and t ile and Isabella had divers solitary walks akd con: tabulations, from which they returned with a peculiar solemnity of countenance. More over, the quick sighted little Kate no iced that when Edward was with herself, he seemed to talk as though he talked not when with Isabella he was all animation and interest ; that he was constantly tellinh into trances and reveries, and broke oft .. the thread of convorsatson abruptly ; arid, Hi short; had every appearance ofa person who would bo good to say something, if Ito only knew how: 'So,' said Kate to herself, 'they neither of them speak to mu about it—l should think they might. Belle I should think would, and Edward knows I am a good friend of his, I know he is thinking of it all the time, he might as well toll toe, ut.d he The next morning Miss Kate was sitting in the little back parlour. Isabella was gone out shopping, and Edward was—she did not know where. Oh no, here he is-- com ing book in hand, ,into' the self same little room ; now for it,' said the merry girl menially, Tit make a charge at him.' She looked up ; Master Edward was sitting di agonally on the seta, twirling the leaves of his book in a very unseholarship manner, he looked out of the window, and—then walked to the sideboard and poured out three tainblerg of water, then he drew up a chair to the work table and took up first one uall of cotton, looked it over,. and laid it down again, then another then 'he picked up the scissors and minced up two or three little hos of paper; and then began to pull needles out of the needle book, and put them back again.
