There is a thick, warm mist, that the sun seeks vainly to pierce.— Trees, lofty and beautiful, wave to the motion of the breeze. But there a group- of Indians gather and flit to and fro with something like sorrow upon thefr dark brows, and in their midst lies a manly form—-but his dark cheek, how deathly—his eyes wild with the fitful fire-of fever. One friend stands beside. I should say kneels, for see, he is pillowing that poor head upon his breast. Genius in rains on the high, holy-l'oolring brow—why should death mark it, 'andbe so young! Look how he throws back the damp, curls! See him'clasp his hand, hear his shrieks for life; how he clutches at the form .of his companion, imploring to be saved! Qb, hear rum call pite ously his father’s name; see him twine his fingers together, as he shrieks for his sister—his only sister, twin of his soul—weeping for him in his distant native land! See” she exclaimed, while the bridal party shrank back, the untested wine trembling in their, grasp, a nd tne deacon fell overpowered into his seat—“see, his arms are lifted to heaven; he prays, how wildly for mercy. But fever rashes through his veins. The friend beside him is weep ing. Awe-stricken, the dark men move silently away, and leave the living and the dying together.” There was a hush in that princely parlor; broken only by what seemed a a sob from some manly bosom. The bride stood yet upright, with quiver ing lips, and tears streaming into the outward edge of her lashes. Her beau tiful arm had lost its extension, and the glass, with its little troubled waves, came slowly towards the range of her vision. She spoke again; every lip was mute; her voice was low, faint, yCt awfully distinct. She still fixed her sorrowful glance npon the wine cup. “It is evening now, the great white moon is coining np, and her beams fall gently on his forehead. He moves not; his eyes are out of their sockets; dim are the piercing glances. In vain his friends whispers the name of father ■and sister; no soft hand and no gentle voice bless and soothe him. His head sinks back; one convulsive shudder— he is dead.” A groan ran through the assembly.. 'So'vivid was her description, bo on- errthly her look, so inspired her man ner, 'that what she described seemed actually to have taken place then and there.

The-scene which’ I wish to rep resent was one of a similar, kind. Upon a Christmas day of ’51—it was the marriage of the only daughter of the deacon—it Was a night of joy and glee. After the marriage had been performed the bottles of wine were brought forth; all present filled their goblets full of the poisonous nectar, except one, 'who stood- like a marble statue. It was the bride; white the words were spoken from one of the crowd, “Pledge with wine.” “Pledge with wine,” cried the young and thbugfaftess -HarYy Wood; “Pledge with wine,” ran through the crowd. The beautiful bride, grew pale; the decisive hour bad,come. She pressed' her white hands together, and' the leaves of ha- bridal wreath trembled on her pure brow; her ..breath came quicker, and her heart beat wilder.— “Yes, Marion, lay- aside yonr scruples for this once,” said the deacon, in a low tone, going toward his daughter; “the company expect it; do not so in fringe upon the rales of etiquette; in your o\ra home act as you please, bnt in mine, for this once, -please me.” Every eye was turned toward the bride, for Marion’s principles were well known. Henry had been a con- vryialist, bat of late his friends had noticed the change in his manners— the. difference of bis habits—and to night they watched to see, as they sneeringly said, if he was tied down to a woman's opinion so soon. Pouring a -brimming goblet, they held it with tempting smiles toward Marion. She was very pale, though more .composed, and her hand shook hot; ss smiling back, she gracefully accepted the crystal temper, and raised voice more broken—“and there they seoop him a grove; and there, withont a shroud, they lay him down in:the damp, reek- ing earth—the only son of a' proud fit ther, the idolized brother of a fond sister; and he sleeps to-day in that dis tant country, with no '"stone to mark the spot. There he lies—my father’s son, my own twin brother, a victim of this: deadly poison! Father,”- die ex claimed, turning suddenly, while the tears rolled down her beautiful cheeks —“father, shall I drink the poison now?” The form of the old deacon was convulsed with agony. He raised not his head, but in a smothered voice he , faltered, “No, no, my child, in God’s name, no!” . She lifted the glittering goblet, and : letting it fall suddenly to the floor, it ; was dashed to pieces. Many a tearful eye watched her movement, and in stantaneously every glass was transfer- \ red to the marble table on which it i had been prepared. Then, as ahe looked at the fragments of crystal, sue ' turned to the company, saying: • “Let .no friend hereafter who loves- me, tempt me to peril my soul for - wine, or any other, poisonons; venom.
