Fie was a man of middle age and p'aiuly dressed, a man of elegant taxt’s, keen, (pick and ol servant, of men and matters One gentleman who was with me, hud been bantering Lim ah iut his single state, aud had thougtlets’y wounded him. It is n. t -afe to jest upon such mat ters. Tne lip mav not tremble nor the ey> grot? less steady, nor tho color flut ter back from tho oaoeks, but sometime our words press upon a buried thorn, and the heart is probed and Ll.’eds anew, Tho story might bavo been given for our i*ttractive. I give it in his own words. I was a y ’nng man then, fredi from the country. I had become h’ad eletk in one of the first firm-, in the city, and consequently felt myself able to live, in what setmed to me, good style. 51y fneud, Frank Ap pleby, who had been my companion at school and mv chum at college, met me almost upon the moment of uiy arrival, with the exclamation, “I’ve got a capital lo’g’ngs a little way cut of town—only been thcic a w. ck, but its a splendid plac.', [ pr m iso you 1” So I went with him, and depo it and my trunk in his room, which wss hand, some and spacious, and tba r night as I returned aud sat down to BJ| p r, af er an introduction to the family, I first saw Kmi y Houston. There were two daughters. The house was kept by a wilow, who ell her life bad been accus tomed to the elegancies and refinmtnt of wealth, until the death of her hus band, five years bes -re. Since that time, sl.o had supported herself by tak ing gentleman boarders. ivnily was the young st daughter; the blind one, whom I have above de scribed. Charlotte, the elder was far less lovely, though some would have called her beauty more striking [did nut. As I said before, niy glances toward Emi'y were so frequent as to orll foi tk such return ks lroui Frauk Ap- P'fT- . , „ r ‘•1 ne or saw to sweet a creature, 1 said f. rvootly. ‘ She is a dear little thing, wrs the careless re’tj.i ns', aud between you and me, 1 think she likes mo a liltle too well ’’ I never sbtJl forget how I felt as be stid this. A flush of ming’e) resent ment an 1 contempt flaw to my cheeks; it stemid sacrilege, to speak so lightly of 8) beautiful a creature, Leslies 1 found that she had a deep imgrtsi'U on my own imagination, and I renum bered Jbow hor eyes had furred more quickly at the sound of Frank’s voice, than at any o’her, that even whon he pasted her, she seined to know it, ti look more etgerly, to listen more atten tively. Eet ry day I bectinii more cu uiuortd of this lovely girl, and it. pained me inexpressibly to »ee Frank, as I thought trill) wi'h her. He paid real court to the more regal Charlotte, but this vanity coul 1 n t with tand the mute homage of hor sister. I often watched them—watched till it almost maddened tne , for I would have giv en worlds fur one of these peculiar smiles she always bestowed m Frauk. Oi.e diy I saw him standing at the door, which lei out upon a small plot of garden grouud, now regal with full trims in, and the deep hue if ibe trees, whose branches leaned over the wall, one arm was around her waist, with the i ther, he was pressing lack the brown wt.vv hair ‘•You have a remarkably beautiful forheatl Emily,” he raid. ‘•Have I ? do you think so ? ‘ O’- I am so glad 1 ’ she said artlessly ‘•NVhat makes you glad Emily ?’’ he said ia the softest cf toaor. “Because whatever you like in me, makes me glad,” was the innoco.t reply ‘•That beau'iful song, “A ring of gold she gave me,” “do you know I’ve Earn ed that, because you said you liked it so well—l can ting every Word of it.” “C a You ?” said he '•Thank you for learning it for mo, I will hear you sing it this evening. Yes, he continued still musingly, “you h ive a remarkaly iotfll gep* Lrow ; I tbiuk you could write poetry, little odo. “Ah, if 1 to id but see you, I m r gh.’ was the low, swcot reply. “Well, w Ihlirrce’ a coafe-sioi»,”said Frank, laughing lightly,yet from where l stood I saw his cheek flish with plcatur’. “Now, how do y.-u suppose i look r ‘•Ob, I have heard often,” said the innoceut creature. Sister Lottie has told uie that you have black curling hair anti black eyes. And I think as loot tie says, you n u-t be very handsome.” ‘•Oh. ves, I’m a pri digously h tad-tome fellow,” said Frank, coticti edly, laugh ing as he sp ke. “Do you think, little one, that tester Littio likes mo pretty wel\” “How can sbo help it?” a>kcd the blind girl, lifting ter glowing, but sightless eyes towards him. If ever my blood boil.-d, it did then, as I saw him lean over aud kiss her— if ever I wanted to give that arrant kuave and puppy a shaking, I tlid then. A blush mantled her puto checks—a s uile deepened ill! Uiuiplos around her lips. “Fiunk,’’ I exclaimed, indignandv, a ft w moments afterwards, “you ought to b<’ fs’tunu'd us yourself 1” “Wtiatdo yo i mean T’ be asked’ looking s tm what guilty as bo spoke. “Vki are doing haitn, Ftanlt,” I said, “in leading that poor blind «irl lo lovo you It is a cruel thing. Yon w ill pay dearly f.r i: sinio day, mark what I s»y.” “I’shaw ; he exclaimed, half angrilv. “llow the deuce am I to help the girl’s liking me? If she will bo buvli a fool, why lot In r!’’ •‘You eneoirago her to love you Frauk,” 8 ii /; “you know you do, both by words ami actions.” ‘ l\,oh ! you are jealous, be sneered. “N-, Frank, n,.t j- aleus, for / have ni claims upon her. Would to Heav en I had!” 1 exclaimed, with such ve hemence ill.t lie gnzii iatni i, quite 8 - lonoe 1 and subdued. “Iteueiiib-r,” I si and solemnly, “.>he is different from oth er women. Her great calamity has made htr a pet in the household ; she has bceu treated always like a (under child, aud she loj’ks for caresses and love from every body.

Un mask my treachery ifyou will, but I tell you that I me?nt no hartu.” If ho had left her to hiis he said, if bis vpnity had n't prevailed over his b tier judgment, all might have been well. That die sang tho sweet s r .ug, “A ring of grTl,” and all applauded |j it she 1 >oked aioaud in vain fur a word ,f praise from Frank. I never shall for get i hat touching, eager glance, asking so mutely, so m mrnfuly for the oi e be loved voioe. Fir a few days Flunk was very distant, seldom speakii gto her and I endeavored t> fi.l his place At all practicable limes 1 sang to her. read to her, walk and with her, and afar some lit'le time had elapsed, she 1 >el the look of pni'iful ri vorio that had fur a ini' L come habitual to her, and learn ed to look for mo.

She was mi iano— cen!, and yt-t flo wise, hj confiding, s graceful. 1 think she wis begnning to transfer <o me the tifl’oetiun she bid telt for Fr.. uk Appleby. For me tho eyes grew luminous now, fir uie file little til very lauttb of weli orte sounded. Meanwhile Erai k wu-i woo’ng the really elegant Chariott.< If >uston. She was a worthy cirl, and loved her blind sister almost idola rou.-ly I wondered di it she had not n ticid poor little Em ily’s infatuati m, hat she was so accus tomed to seeing her loved und peted that it seemed a mutter of cour-o. She was a belie, and a run bet of suiters contended fir her haud ; so Frank, who enjoyed a monopoly of her smiles and irood graces, was Csteeme 1 a f r uuate fcl’ow. 1 came home one evenin'-, ands mod my li< t’e rosebud, as I called her, uuu sualy depressed. I thought she bad been weeping. In vaiu I cxeried all my power? to ph-tise her—she smiled, but tho smile was ful o ved by a sigh.

If it had been my lot to have received your love, believe me, your path would, have been strewn w th flowers.” Bhe wns silent after this, till we ar rived home ; then she instantly* retired. The next morning she was not nt t.hc breakfast table nt her usual \ime, “What made Emily act so strange ly last night?” askfel Charlotte. “Tho cdihl must have been ill.” “Yes; I was half angry ut hor for Standing up in thut conspicuous place,’ said Frank. “Ifsho were my sister, I should talk ti her.” I Hashed an indignant look at him, und lie winced un ler it. “What was it, Mr. Hayden ?’’ ask ed Lottie: “don’t you know?' “She Ii aid s mo unpleasant infor mation,” I repled ‘For pity's sake! from wlvni?” saio Miss Houston. “F oni two gentlemen who snt rear us,” I replied. ‘ \Vhui was it,my dear?” asked her mother. •'Why, Emily acted so strangely last night!” said Charlotte, looking curiously ut me. “She sprung up suddenly, and I almost thought she was going to jump over into the pit.— Her face wns as while as u sheet.” At that moment Emily entered.

Her young face wore a hug L-ai'd look, and her usually s'ow g:a ei l'ul step seemed languid now look her acouetcrned place lies tie her mother, who spoke to her tenderly. l»u* whon she answered, her lip quivered.

At last she did not come down to her men’s. Her strength seemed to desert her, and mutely, uneomplnihing and sightless, she was going down to the tomb. Every day s;be grew more saintly, every day more inexpressibly dear to me who knew tbe cause of her malady O.ieevcing I noticed a peculiar expression on the countenance ol Char lotte Houston. Her lace was very stern, and I surmised that there bad been some misunderstanding between Frank Appleby and herself; and 1 was right. During Emily’s childhood she had learned to write, guided of course by an implement to which the blind have recourse, and she wrote with astonish ing acciiry. It seems thnt Emily had asked her sis er to bring her a eet tain little box from her private drawer.— Charlotte compile !, but finding some scraps of poetry of a peculiar charac t> r which had been rend to her sister, Charlotte felt justified in opening the box, and there she learned the secret of Emil y ’s sorrow. At first resentment filled her soul, and then came anguish Had the nv n whom she had loved and honored w iih her confidence done this thing?
