The old gentle:4mi looked and spoke with
the seilmisness that oppressed hialeelings.
" Fanny ! Fanny I Truth and obedience

are tares from the Evil One. Whatever

Mrs. Howard did not -reply, but her

Willie, was amusing himself -with .

Mrs. Howard did not look towards her

more even than men, begin to faint for

places its transparent bell-glass over the
young , woman who is to be the subject of
one of its fatal experiments. The element
by which only the 1 heart lives is sucked
out of her crystalline prison. Watch her
through its transparent walls ;—her bosom
is heaving ;'but it is in a vacuum. Death
is no riddle:compared to this.

two-and-twenty years - and the hearth
smoke gone out through the - epeningl in

The wealth of the little, Meadow' is litre:
gairved, rich with it fresh fragran.:e
and its associations: :Warned hy the

on the hay.. We know'-not 'of atiedly in

The labors of-the farm 7litnl the cares of

spirit. The rain is thiling and we have
.au ex.cusnfor feeling thus.l The diups
patter upon the leaves without. lAt anpre
aiusically upon the old roof They irip
on before the gust like the young thoughts
of childhood, awakening a pleasant mem

chinking of mud, chirps in . unison. We
forget that a quarter uf.2, century lies be

Mem
ories come and w, the inner thresh
old of the heart is scarce worn under
their tread. - Upon the mow, under the

shell siLgs of childhood in the old barn.
So this dreamy influence, like a 1110.1i0W:
illg haze, then crept over us, and so the
rain gently pattered on the shingles.—
And if we do not somerseti as theta from
the "big beam," it is.becans‘: the sinews
have_become stiffened by the toil of years.
The old gable with its diaMend swallow

is pendant with a tear. And would it. be
