-Al A It V OF TIIK VALLEY.
In a charming vale in the State of New
Jur-ev, a few years since, dwelt a more
charming being, in the person of Mary Muy-
fl ■ '. fauuliarlv ralltd Mary of the Valiev.
So gentle w as she, so modest, so utterly with-
on. lie. that In s I.uioii.il appellation was
conferred upon hn rather as an uffcr.tionnlc
rn rlr of il.simclinn, than «# a nii kn iino of re
proach or thoughtless levity—nnd was equiv i-
J«;ti to saying c fall the inhabitants of Ihe Val-
li'V, Mart- was the loveliest.
Il was not wealth that gave her distinction,
for she was in humble circumstances. It was
.not beauty, for she Imd not that fascinating
charm to boast. Il was not wit, for she never
hazard' d the use of thal dangerous weapon.
Il was not learning, for slur had no more than
the ordinary attainments of a common village
school. Neither was il gaiety of dress or vi
vacity of inama r-, lor she, was plain in the
cue, and ictiriug in the other. \Yhat was it
then liiat made tier cmplinticall
the Valley—the entertained of all heart#—
the rich and the poor, the proud and the hum
hie, the sinner and the saint I
else hut the winning sweenies# oflier disposi
tion, the ronrpiering kindness of her heart.
Alary Mayflower was not lieau'iful, hut she
was lovely, not striking at first sight. Iml ta
iling the heart by degrees, nnd winning the af
fections, if I may so speak, inch liv inch ; ne
ver losing the held which she had once gained,
and daily adding something to every one’s
slock of esteem and love. And all this w ith
out the least effort, purely by acting out her
self, nod appearing what gentle nature, a judi
cious bringing up, und good moral culture had
made her.
Authors of fiction nro fond of regulating the
temper nnd disposition of their heroes liv the
color of llieir eyes ; and with the mild and
gentle disposition, tliev have agreed to nssoei
all- the blue eye. Hut in real life il muv lie
otherwise, and nature mav take il into Imr
head to connect the gentlest disposition with
the must sparkling eye. Itm in relation lo
•Mart of the Valley, nil admirer of hers told
rue. thill after several years’ ncqiinintnurc, lie
positively could not pronounce with certainty
whe'licr her eyes were lilue, black or hnzei.
Indeed, said lie, one must have been dead lo
llieir expression, who could coolly bothink
himself of ascertaining their color. Hut the
color, if known, might easily fade from the re
collection—llio expression, never.
AYiill so much goodness, Mary of the Val
ley could not fail lo lie esteemed ; for good
ness will attract esteem, not only among the
good, but even among those who have not the
virtu 1 ' lo praetise wliul they esteem. AVitli so
