timidity, or to that maidenly bashful ness iiutui nl, as
he deemed, to a gill educated in the country, and
therefore nttcily unfamiliar with the usages of* fash

day they arrived at the end of their journey, when
the bride was ushered into tint splendid iiiuuston of

with a feeling little short of feverish disgust. She
repaired early to her chamber, her temples throb
bing, tiud the "whole max* of her blood bounding
through her flame, as if the “great deep” of the
heart was “broken up,” and a deluge was pouring
through every v#sin, and threw herself upon her bed
w ith a sigh so deep and poignant, that il seemed a*
if the very soul had been suddenly forced from the
fair tenement in which it was enshrined, hy one fierce
I nun nlsinii of concentrated agony.
\ The stars were Irright in the heavens, hut her des-
pruviouslv to tiny was dim and clouded. They seemed only as
ted to settle with M. J. ho.’tvenlv mockers of earthly wo. She had censed
’ * *’ 1 " to weep, to sigh, to murmur. Her sufferings were
too unite for tears, for sighs, for mtirmurings; her’*
were the silent, unseen, absorbing agonies of ties
pair. Sho did not sleep, or, if her senses were for
a moment ” lapped iu oblivion,” frightful dreams in
terrupted her sltinilierH, and she started from her pil
low with the perturbation of bewildered horror,
which too plainly told the intensity of her soul’s
emotions.
On the follow ing morning, pnle nnd unrefreshed,
w ith forebodings that struck like so many ice-holts
through her heart, she descended to tho parlour,
where a tolerably splendid breakfast was provided
for those friends Who had been invited to the wed
ding, and who very shortly after assembled. The

j from sorrow than the influence of years, was still

mmnn motives and determination* ate frequently
inscrutable, even to ourselves, and Mrs. Delorme,
c faltered, I if it were in her power, appeared not disposed to re-
solve a question which was evident to no mind but
her own. A mystery seemed to hung over the youth

in spite of the surmises that grew every day more
nml more rife, in the neighborhood, slu: ordered no
tice* to ho circulated announcing the immediate sale
of the estate and family mansion of her late husband.
I,, the course of u few weeks they fell into the hands
•ii bride- i of a new proprietor, and the young widow with her
child left this country for the south of France, to
seek in a foreign land that repose of spirit which
had been so long denied her in her own. But, alas!
she found it not. Tim wound had gone too deeply

had been too high, vvu* instantly relaxed, and she ^

his untrnctuhlc sternness of purpose. Hi- mind j
was absorbed in the contemplation of what imjiht j

An olu chitlonier (or rug picker) died in Baris
in a state of the most abject poverty. His only re
lation was a niece, who lived as a servaut with a
green grocer. The girl always nssirfted her uncle
as far as hur slender means would permit. When
she learned of his death which took place suddenly,
site was outlie point of marriage with a journeyman
baker, to whom she Imd long been attached. The
nuptial day was fixed, hut Suzette had not yet bought
her wedding clothes. She hastened to tell her
lover that her marriage must ho deferred, she want
ed tin: price of her bridal finery, to lay her uncle de
cently in tho grave. Her mistress ridiculed tho idea,
und exhorted her to leave the old man to he buried

was a quarrel, in which the young woman lost at
once her (dace and her lover, who sided with*her
mistress. She hastened to tho miserable garret
