Two little birds swung to and fro in the topmost boughs of a tall China tree in Mr>. Bernard’s front yard. It was Valentine’s day, and therefore legitimate occasion for pairing. Said ':r. Jav: “This is a verv nice' . * i place for our nest.” Said Mrs. .lay, in the authority of early, bridehood : “No; the naughty boys will throw rocks at me while you ate away getting worms.” “There you are wrong,” returns Mr. Jay; “the sweet young I- dy will not aliow them to hurt us, and we are safer here than elsewhere.’’ And with this view Airs. Jay must fain be content. This is a free translation of the in cessant chirping and chattering this gay couple kept up, as from their, lofty perch they recommitered their tuture abode, and made quite a mer ry-go-round of the occasion. One month later they returned to the selected spot, where, their hon eymoon ove-r, they took upon them selves the serious duties of' life with the greatest alacrity- Flying po and fin, w ith little sticks in tlieir beaks, o>: hits of dry moss! or indeed, any -tang suitable for their purpose, they evinced a steadiness of intention and unflagging energy worthy of imita tion. ■ While Air. Jay is absent on some special mission, his worthy spouse, turning her bright eyes about inquir ingly, espies under the rustic bench beneath the tree a bit of paper, and straightway flics down and secures it, and when Mr. Jay returns, shows it to him triumphantly as an article of adornment for their future home. Ah! Mrs. Jay, you little know the mischief you have done. Later in the flay a young gentleman from a house across the street opens the gale of Mrs. Bernard’s yard, and then closing it, saunters leisurely up the walk lead ing to that lady’s house, with ail air of easy assurance and certain wel come. Seeing a book lying upon the rustic bench aforesaid, and being quite methodical in his habits, he turns aside for the purpose of restor in'! it to : t- prop?” place within doors, her he is hound. Vs ho lifts the book, however, from between the leaves drops a letter—a valentine, lie sits down, and does a very dis honorable thing- he reads it. He does this because it is addressed to Miss Ida Bernard, and the chirogra phy is undoubtedly that of Mr.- Charles Gaston—the lady is his be trothed; the gentleman is his rival. Put yourself in his place, and judge him leniently. This letter, which was written upon paper of delicately tint ed blue, the color most suited to the occasion, with the monogram of “O. G.,” in the center, contained a pas sionate avowal of undying affection for the young lady, and wound* up with *he request which, was evident ly the inspiration of the moment: “Ob. maiden ! by tiiose charms divine, Be mine for life, my valentine.” And lest the monogram should not be sufficiently explicit on the score* of the authorship of this original couplet in the extraordinary flour ishes of the “V,” the same obnoxious initials were ingeniously arranged. The casual observer might have fail ed to discover anything surreptitious about the valentine: not so the eye of jealousy. Mr. Arthur Wright replaces the letter in the envelope, the lid of which has been torn away; and, as he medi tates upon the practicability of assert ing his right to forbid such expres sions of affection which, though ncilli- HAMILTON, HARRIS CO., GA..fS fESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13. 187# er remarkable for depth nor original ity, are gertai dy persuasive, his med itutivc eye ful's upon a fit. of paper just beneath the bcncli. lie picks it up ami reads, “Charles, I love you, l ) hero ho is left in tantaliz ing uncertnmty as to the conclusion of xho sentenee, for tlm ivni'rls are WBttPii upon otic half of the severed lid, the remainder of which is not to be scon. He at, onee institutes a search lor it, and whim at link agree able employment, Master Ned Her nard, aged six, appears; “Roily,” he cries; “I thought you was a bear.’’ Mr. Wright certainly looks fero cious enough to answer that descrip tion, as he scrambles up into a more dignified posture. ,“What was yon looking for?” In quired Master Ned. “Nothing,’’ says Mr. Wright, re suming his seat. “Why?” “I thought you had lost ■'”-> heart too, like >tr. Gaston ton. ' r Lida he did. Did you know my ob-tailed fee would run rabbits?’’ “When did he say that?” inquires Air. Wright, with subf me indifference to the bob tail lice. ■‘Why, this morning, when they was sitting on that bench; and he got on liis knees to look for it, too. Yonder’s my pup; here, Rover, hfir-r-re.” Which earnest call being unheeded by Rover, Master Ned immediately sots off'in pursuit of him, leaving Mr. Wright to chew the cud of sweet and bitter fancy. While he thus sits lost in profound meditation, Miss Lida herself comes to the door, and beholding Iter be trothed seated at. their usual trysting place, at once comes out, to him, smiling and radiant as the mo liing. “What a ghvfnv brow 1” she ex claims. “W/Jawe now lies thy grief; oh, tell me, ~■>,! Arthur 1” “In reading, atmther turn's declara tion of ime w my promised wife, and her acknowledgment of a rt-cip rocation and ;qV,,l,jgy for inability to return it openly, ' he replies, sorely “ W hat ?”.shs ask-q in a lViviluei ed A He repeats the — . ►EiliO stc*s the vnlemjjirv TTiii.

Her eyes flush. “You believe that I love Charles Gaston?” “I do.” (He doesn’t, though.) “And you know that I am your affianced wife?” He bows. “Very well, Mr. Wright; here is your ring, ana yonder is the gate; the tiffin I marry must trust me. I wish you a very good morning, and tt free exercise of v> " unaining rights.” And she Jet m. He gets up and g out of the gate in a dazed sort c f way, and from the animal instinct to fly from pain and herd with his kind, rather than any definite object in doing so, walks on toward the village inn. ITe at last becomes conscious, as the shock of' his sudden dismissal abates, that be holds in his hand the scrap of paper which has wrought his destruction, or that of his hopes, which just now appears to him synonymous, and he dashes it away as if he would then and there wreak his vengeance upon it. But having gone twenty steps, ho returns, picks it up and places it in his vest pocket with a sigh. For a month after he preserved a dignified unconsciousness of Mist Bernard’s presence on the rare occa sions of their meeting, sometimes in company of someone or more of the village hellos, but more frequently with Mr. Charles Gaston, Ilis feel 'ings toward that young gentleman reached a highly sanguinary pitch— he could havl seen him impaled by a lance, hung, drawn and quartered, or even served up for a cannibal ban quet with perfect equanimity. At length it was rumored in Wa terville, in which, as in all villages, the good people paid the strictest at tention to th i affairs of each other, that Lida Bernard was not to he married to Mr, Wright, as had been at first supposed, but that the happy groom expectant was Mr. Charles Gaston. Over this Aq Wright ago nized ill secret ji I ghed in pub lic; for thmtjjtl cept out, as slii-li things ivih ; • had •received the . mitten,-ok ' , replied that the Watcrvi h , fihl not have the additional s i, non of fliseusr ing his do-/sir. uiMtlerod him self very badly ad, when think ing of thrnci of his dis missal, t >bl hi, i his nag r wax ed hot, ibat ; ; tjl rid of a vix en. lint thi itory assurance did not enable, 1 u- with j-liii osophy tile Bight ,’r.

One day one of the little things which are so often the turning point, iu one’s life, or upon which one’s whole future happiness hinges, hap pened to Mr. Wright. The dog kioktju was in this instance the prop Tty of Mastin' N j.l If -mat'd, which action, that y. ui.g gen: lonian, being upon the pot, duly resented. “I didn’t ware IMa to marry r.o such a crosspate!) ns you,” he cries. “I like Mr. Gaston: Jj gives me can dv, and makes I hope Lida never wilt \ Jgbp. you'oack— “Whistle m.'i^^T.?” “Th- V ■■■.,?' (!,, life dr ■in ; t. Cat -nuf's hair.” And this sji.-.-e:i being dmy repeat ed to Miss l.idn. the breach grew wider and aider. lie ceased to raise his hat when they nut, and she look ed another way. 'J ims matters progressed as the summer faded i.it.o autumn, and the magician, Frost, with his invisible wand turned tdier green woods into wonderful masses of imprisoned flame and sunlight. The leaves on Mrs. Bernard’s China tree had no exemp tion from the enleime of general de cay, and came fluttering down silent ly, one by one, or like a shower of canary birds, until t! were left bare and deso ate, stretching themselves out imp' singly to their dun-colored brothers afar in the silent | forest. | One of those tenner, melancholy i days in Oc >ber, which coma to us like the half forgotten memory of a happiness long gone, Mr. Wright looked from his window at the sug gestive China tree across the doubly so in its desolation. He is very sad. lie has reason to oe so, for the wiseacres of the village have fixed the day of Miss Bernard’s mat riage with his rival at no distant date, and though such authority is in no wise infallibly yet. iiis daily ob servations of their maneuvers do not contradict the report. “Arthur!” , His mother’s voice sounds up the stair into the front bed-room where lie sits, a prey to melancholy. It is a voice of perplexity. “Well, mother.” “Ido wish you would just step ovei to Mra. Bernard’s and ask her to lend me her syllabub churn; I have broken mine. Jane is just as busy as can be, and 1 have no idea where Sam is.” “And what is the necessity for the churn this evening?” “Why, don’t you know? The minister's lanliiy and your cousin Julia are coming to tea.” The young man is a dutiful son, and makes no further demur, lie has seen, from his post of observa tion, Mr. Gaston drive off, with Lida by his site, half an hour before, and he 1 nows the coast is clear He has been from his babyhood a pet of Mrs. Bernard’s, and that good lady has seen, with deep regret, the “ii lie un pleasantness” between her daughter 14ml himself. He says he will go. This he does in a painful frame of mind, which in ere -as he nears the 1> rn ml • giomuls. .As lie enters the portal, 1 out from a clamp of cedars emerges ! Master Ned, who, making grimaces and walking backward, precedes him lot !u> house. “1 know who you've corno.lo see,” he snva, “Hat, you c- i-n’l roe lie; ; he's gone off with her other sweet i heart, site ha-.’’ “I wish to see your mother,” says Ai lluir, repressing a desire to stiangle the little imp. “Well, you can’t see her, neither— she’s gone down in the meadow to see the new calf. Don’t, you want to go? ’’ Mr. W right declines, and not ! knowing what, ek- 1 t,, do, as there is no pressing necessity for the immedi [ ate forthcoming of the chum, con cludes to await its owner’s return, and seats himself on the rustic bench ! of painful memory. Master Ned does i 'ikewise. ■T know 1 somethin;:,” he begins, looking very wise. No resnonao i a 1 from Mr. Wright. “Don't you wish you kr.oa-e i?’’ I “No!’’ for ho anf.icipat -s its imp. .t. Master Ned’s loquacity receives j only a temporary check. lie casta lus eyes up, reflectively, a few sec | onds, then breaks out: “Wish you’d get that bird’s nest tor trie. I asked Mr. Gastou to get it y. Rterday, but ■■ as so busy kissing Li la’s hand he didn’t hear me, I guess.” Arthur springs to his feet. ‘Thing mu a pole, and bo quick,” he says. The pole is drawn forth from its place of convenience, where it has lain since yesterday awaiting a possi ble leisure moment of Mr. Gaston’s lime. j After various thrusts and lunges, i the empty nest came fluttering down at the feet, of the delighted Nul. : Mr. Wriglu looks at it v ith a sad | ness akin to pain, and draws the an- I aiogy between it, am! his hopes, which have flown away like the little birds, ! leaving the flea.," w biclj hud. cherished them, 1 me •aiiclA.lrs.ii.n.e. “Look-a-here,” cried Ned, deligbt i edlv, breaking in upon his fancy with j a palpable lac - ; “it here ain’t a piece |of paper in this here nest. Just get it out, will you, Mr. Arthur?” Mr. Wright does as he is direc t'd, and recogniz s, with a shock like that of the voltaic battery, the delicat.ly tinted blue of the paper and the fa miliar characters of the superscrip tion on it—“only as a sister.” lie turns hot and cold by turns as he takes from his vest poflltet a hit of paper, the counterpart of this, and fits in the jugged edges of the center. The sentence lies before him com plete—“ Charles, I love you, but only as a sister.” His folly and stupidity overwhelms him. He leans a mo ment against the tree and gasps for breath. “What’s the matter?’’ demands Master Ned. “You ain’t got flirta tion of the heart, have you? ’Cause that’s just, the way Lida done yester day when i'r. Gaston was talking to her, and I know they J something about flirtation and heart.” “Very likely,” is the bit 1 or re sponse. and, as he makes it, afar up the long, straight road arises a cloud of dust from rapidly revolving wheels. “Ned,” says Mr. Wright, “Auntie Wright is baking cakes this evening; don’t you want to take your mother’s syllabub churn over then ?” ’Twas a word to the wise. Ned is off like a skyrocket. In a few moments the vehicle stops at tiie gate, the gentleman assists the lady to alight, reseats himself, and with some gay words, drives oft’. She enters alone, humming a little air. Mr. Wright suddenly confronts her, and the song dies on her lips. “You here?” she says in surprise. “Yes, Lida; to humble myself in the dust before you. But, come,” and he leads her to the seat lie has just left. “Here, with the evidence of your truth before me,” and he spreads out the bit of paper on the sea'; “here, where I permitted my jealousy and suspicion to outweigh for the moment my love and trust, 1 ask you to forgive me. Oh! Lida, canyon, will jon forgive me?” “Oh, yes,” she returns, sweetly and coolly; “l forgive you freely. And now, while 1 have an opportunity to do so privately, for I see mamma is coming, 1 v ill ask you to make one of uitr guests to day fort id . lit. lam then to be married to Mr. Ga.-ton. 1 ’ 1 Inti p."ini 'ttf (’ tididat ‘s.
