Waiting for the Dawn. BY IRENE INGE.COLLIER. In » dtiti rambling mansion embowered in lemon and banana trees, Eloise sat looking out ova the low, level lands to the sea that.lit with sunset color, stretched to the eastern horizon. Ouiet. lonely and utterly secluded was this new Lome of liers—this asylum to which she had brou"bt» heart full of bitter regrets ani fore bodings. The overseer who lived in an out house some distance away, was the only white Derson on the place beside herselt. The house- Leepe a —a dignified, but apparently kind and attentive mulatto woman, her son a queer, m- ouisitive creature, with round, funny eyes and amo ith ever ready to expand in grins, and a quadroon girl who waited upon Eloise were the only other members of the household. The field hands occnp ed cabins a quarter ot a mile away. When wearied and sad she bud reached the little Florida village where her travel by public conveyance was to end, she found the carriage Bertram had directed hi* agent and oveiueer to tend for her, awaiting her with the overseer on horseback in attendance. She had stepped into the carriage, seen strapped behind it the small trunk filled with materials to be made up into wearing apparel which she had bought in a town she passed through, and been driven away, over low hills and through long reaches of level meadows and open pine woods T'itil,at the close of day, the carriage stopped before the gloomy convent-like house, the negro coachman descended and opened the door and the overseer, (Mr. Bertram’s agent as he prefer red 1o 1 e called, J assisted her to alight, and es- tort'ng her to the house, left her in the hands of the house keeper. That personage soon had for her a nice cup of tea, cake, biscuit and or ange marmalade, but she could only drink the tea while her eyes wandered around the prison like abode, made yet more gloomy by the cloud ed Bight and the low, dull sound of the sea. Bertram had written that the lady who would Brrive to take possession of Ocean View was a re-r relative, out of health and sad because of recent afflictions and directed that every atten tion should be paid her. But she felt that all looked at her with wondering eyes. Her youth, her loneliness, her sadness and beauty sur- lounded her with mystery even in the eyes of teat plain, unromantic person, the agent, and the ignoi ant negroes who waited upon her so 2 'entively, admired her delicate beauty and p'tied her fragility and evident depression. They stood at the door listening in wonder and delight when, opening Ihe old-fashioned bnt richly toned piano that adorned the sitting room, she played, at first inttumental pieces on ly, afterwards she sang and her glorious voice rang through the old house, startling its echoes and making the birds stop to listen. ‘Here I rest my one hope,’ she said to herself. •In this gift oi mine lies all my hope for the fu ture. Fame, independence, power, revenge- all but happiness. That I shall never know again. But here I shall have leisure to culti vate my talen* Here I may devote all my time to practising the voice that all have praised, that I know to be far beyond ordinary scope and possessed of the subtle, magnetic quality that charms and enthralls. God help me. it is all I have now. I feel that my former friends will tnra from me, that slander will poison their thoughts of the absent ’ Eloise’ presentiments did not deceive her; Blander was indeed busy with her name in the town which she had quitted under the cloud ot night and secrecy. Search and inquiry after her proved vain. Her brother did not respond to the telegram sent to him,and Mr. Sansom.the gentleman who had sent the first message, dispi ched a message to a friend of his in New York, to find out the whereabouts of the bi other of Eloise. He replied across the wires that the gentleman in question was trav eling out West on business and had expressed his intention of going to see Eloise betore his return. The search for the missing girl went on lor days. When the stage arrived, the driver was eagerly questioned, but Eugene’s dark eyes were upon him and a hundred dollar bill lay safely in his pocket. Consequently, heprofets- ed himself utterly in the dark as to Miss Ennis’ movements. Engene Bertram by his prompt co-operation in the search for Eloise, and his seeming anxiety and eagerness to solve the mys tery of her disappearance bau disarmed suspic ion* in a great measure. His protestations oi utter ignorance as to what had become of her, we r o apparently so trntblul that,coupling their sincei ity with his honorable reputation and the feet that he was present, quietly attending to his business when her disapp -.ranee was dis covered—these facts all tended to make people believe him innocent of cuy knowledge of her strange disappearance. Suspicion still lingered, however, m the breast of Sydney Forman. He listened to Eu- r ene’s repeated conjectures about Eloibe s flight, he saw him stemmgiy most earnest in search ing for her and in instituting inquiry that might lead to a clue, and while others were de ceived his heart told him the giri he loved had been spirited away by the man, who disclaimed being per lover, yet constantly sought her pres ence and e: 're-'sed a strsnge power over her. inherited, together with the money her tricky husband appropriated from the estate of care less, big-souled Col. M. who, when he moved to A, left his books and accounts in the hands of this sly rogue, then a briefless lawyer, now a nabob of the shoddy class. A well-mated pair, he and his foui-tongned wife. Do you think what she says will have any weight in the com munity ?’ ‘A slander always finds believers and repeat- ers.’ ‘True,’ groaned Sydney, putting his hand to his brow. ‘I will hold her husband responsi ble.’ ‘You well know he refuses to have anything to do with her fusses. • He will not fight, and will be so bland and polite, you cannot even thrash him without feeling yon are unjust.’ ‘What then can be done? Must that sweet girl be traduced in her absence?’ ‘ I see no other alternative and,,Syd, there is one thinq her triends cannot deny.’ ‘ What is that ?’ «Why, that Eloise did ride out with Engene for months before this transpired, regularly, once, and sometimes oftener during a week and did not return until late.’ ‘Does not evesy other lady do the same?’ * I am not blaming Eloise, for I do not think her capable of any indiscretion, yet the tattlers have a fine field. She left a broad road open for them to swoop down after her.' ‘Have I not driven her'ont time and again, and I know she was in all intercourse the pure, spotless Eloise Ennis.’ ‘I tell you that’s not the thing; she showed Eugene great preference.’ ‘That old Mrs. Winifred started that malig nant falsehood; fierce, rawboned, old fury, eD- vious and jealous; a strange thing it is, that women take chief delight in pushing one an other down. Why, I should think being a wo man would cause every fibre to tingle at hear ing one of their sex abused. Strange they have not found out Mrs. Winifred.’ ‘I am of your opinion. Sid, you will hear it all from your mother, for it is generally rumor ed. I supposed you had htard it. ’ Not a word, before.’ Well I must be gone. Sid, if you hear any news of Eloise, come around.’ ‘I will, thank you; oblige me likewise.’ Sansom went out, and Sid closed his door. ‘Is it possible ? Must her iair name be tarn ished with the breath of slander ? Eloise pure and refined, will they thus seek to disgrace you? Ah those vile slanderers! I would build all of them a funeral pyre and light the fagots myself. I once knew a woman as innocent of wrong as a child at its mother’s knee. One act of indis cretion, a thoughtless act, came near wrecking her life. 1 was an eye witness to all that took place, and I made it known that I knew—had it not have been for me, the noble woman would have been buried beneath a load of shame, heap ed up by others. She never lifted her head as she once did, and though she moves through the same circle of society, Bhe looks with suspi cion npon those who would be her friends. The whole caused by an envious woman—an inti mate friend. Let them talk though. They can not tarnish her real worth, and nothing, my darling, can cloud you in my eyes. Could I now have your love, you would crown my life.’ Eugene came in a few moments later, and though Sidney was ccld and reticent, be expres sed his intention of accompanying him home. Neither spoke often during the drive. The news that Eloise’s fair fame was fonlly attacked was known to both, and Eugene had expressed his indignation almost as freely, but not as passion ately as his companion. A few passing topics of the day were discus sed, intervals of quiet prevailed until home was reached. Tbrowingt.be reins to the servant, Engene and Sid passed into the house. After bidding Eugene to leel at home, Sid went to his mother’s room. How soothing were her soft hands to his knot ted brdw. They talked ; tears came several times to her eyes as she saw the pain and anguish of her son. She tried to give advice. But we 11 leave them talking and turn to the three in the parlor. Eugene did not notice the light in which the young ladies viewed his conduct, though he did know that Carrie was no friend cfhis. She was extremely distant, but Anna’s treatment was more cordial. As a matter of course, Eloise was their topic of conversation. Eugene wished to turn the conversation. ‘Miss Carrie, your work is of a fine material I see, making lace; it costs many hours ot close work which I imagine is damaging to the eye?.’ ‘This is not lace but crochet, very flue work and trying to the eyes as you say. I began this for Eloise, but Eloise. Sid was annoyed that the one piece should be selected from her repertoire. Yet Anna knew nothing of Sidg devotion to Eloise. Eugene, bending over thepjano, knew that Car rie’s and Sid’s eyes were fiqitinizing him. •I believe I will go up taps,’ Carrie said at last. ‘No, come and sit with ison the porch,’ said her brother, taking her h a J. Alone on the porch the* talk drifted into the one theme that was occnii^g the hearts of both. Anna cared little for E,j*e though she said nothing against her. _ j Carrie leaned her headgainst Sid’s shoulder and said, ‘Oh Brother, Va| do you think? Fred came to see me to-day ai talked so unkindly of Eloise. I stood it all Mong as pbssible and we parted in anger. I c.not forgive him.’ ‘Talked unkindly of oise ? why Fred was one of her best friends.Well, absence makes all forget.’ ‘Not so, my dear brotr. I can not bear to bear her spoken of ligljt.’ •She is a noble, wroc| woman.’ •Yes indeed. She is tin New York nor at her aunt’s in Vermont. Tie stage driver knows nothing. I feel, brotbttbat she is not in dan ger personally, but in at trouble: then I wish to know do you believae s'age driver is tell ing the truth, and if yibelieve all Eugene is doing, is not a preteii’ •Yes, I believe Eugeknows just where she is. I could not hear mi Vermont, but she has not had time to g® New York. I have had the same feeling at Eloise.’ The two on the poithought long and con versed of what was bto do and how to act; while the two in the pr talked of the divin You and she were staunch friends and confi dants and, as a matter of course, told each other all secrets; strange she did not leave you a seal ed note.’ ‘Not a bit, Mr. Bertram, there is a mystery connected with her llight and life which cannot now be revealed.' Carrie raised her eyes as she spoke and turned more to the light. She was seated near the window, a little behind the crim son curtains, failing in folds to the floor, and was partly hidden yet so seated as to view the countenance ot Eugene. ‘These Northern women who come South to teach school ostensibly, to find a husband really, do not understand our people, they actvery dit- passion called love, ’jr had banished Eloise from their thoughts. Tears hushed Carr: voice. The very last one she bad thoughtild bo angry with her had parted from her indly; the one to whom she had plighted Itroth. Her heart was grieved, and saying i-night to Sid, she went up stairs. Sid remained long the porch, 'thinking how his day-drean»re shattered; now his life had no charm. Eugene still lingealking to Anna in his own grave, facinatiny. So soon after telliloise how he loved her, we find him ponrino Anna's ears the same tale of love. Anna did not lovi, but still thought all his part in this dr might be brought out by telling him the e burned brightly fed by his love. She dered as he asked re peatedly for her tolper a ‘yes.’ ‘Mps Anna, you known me a long time, and why do you aetirne? But as you do not say ‘no,’ I am ig to tell you that I will bask in the moonbof hope.’ ‘Mr. Bertram, I 4 tell you ‘no’—not be cause I wish to lui on—’ Engene interruper: ‘It is not what I would expect frou, Miss Anna, you will not close entirely hntter and conoeal the moonbeams. •Twilight and minis, hope and regard are not what I give tend, nor the kind I would wish to receive, nan I give my love to, must hold the fir,8 in both my esteem and affection; must rsng of my heart, and I will love as neveiioved before. I can do so, and will.’ ‘Then, the onelied there, must be par excellent ?’ Yes.’ Eugene advanohe door. ‘And I trust yet be one that occu pies that niche, tfe the first woman I ever truly loved.

Some time ago he made a visit to Livingston, in the hope of being benefited by the arbsian water, when D.. Webb of that town saw the case. Lately he had determined to return to Living- ston and try agtun the waters, and consulted Dr. Webb going to bis office for that purpose. ^anfferiDg with extreme cold, nffl 8 * Vt k 0 had any fire in his office. He told hnn that he did not, and that it was too ho, to have fire and be comfortable. He said he could not stand it,and ran out of the office into the street for the benefit of the sun shine to warm himself. The next day Dr. Webb ad him in his office again to make a more crit ical examination of bis case, and bad then a ronsiDg fire. He carefully tested with a ther mometer the degree of animal heat he carried, and found it near normal. With all of this trouble he lost little flesh., and kept a good appe tite for food, and preserved rather a healthful look. On Friday he started homo again in a wagon with a Mr. Meadows driving it. He had not gone far out of Livingston before he wanted to return, complaining that he was freez- iDg to death, and wanted to get somewhere to warm. Meadows insisted on continuing the journey on home, and drove forward. Knox jumped out of the wagon and ran off into the woods. Meadows pursued him and compelled him to return and get into the wagon again,and drove on. He got as far as Mrs. Peteet's—Gr.een Grants old place—with him. Mrs. Poteet had observed Meadows driving slowly along the road, and knowing he had gone to fetch the sick man home, went out to the gate to make inquiry. When Meadows drove up and stop ped, to her inquirv he said he believed Jim Knox was dying. He was lying stretched hel] - less in the bottom of the wagon, and sf;er it had stopped only gasped a few times and died, apparently freezing to death last Friday, with the thermometer at near ninety.

He grieved in secret over the blighting of bis hopes and the unaccountable absence of the woman lie loved. It was not long before scandal bad caught np the thune and covered it with the venom of her t ngue. One day, Mr. Ssnsom came into Syd. ney s office, and the all absorbing topic of El oise’s disappearance was at once broached. Mr. Sansom saying: ‘No cine to the missing lady yet?’ Sydney was very pale, he had just been read ing a letter received from the post cfiice—a let ter in answeg to,his own written two days be- lore to a friend in and inquiring of him if be had noticed the arrival of any lady of Eloise’s description at that point. A portion of the letter ran thus:. ‘A mysterious lady arrived here late Monday afternoon and went on in the direction of Mem phis. I noticed her particularly because cf her superior loveliness. She wasef medium height, was dressed in black, had large, liquid, expres- Bive, black eyes and black hair.’ This letter he gave to Mr. Sansom, saying: • I th’nk this may be a clue to where she has ^°The gentleman who had known and loved El oise when she was a little child and he a clerk in her h.other’s store in New York, read the missive pnd shook his head. . •No, Syd.,’ he said, ‘that woman is not Eloise.

Perhaps Miss Eloise may be temporarily insane; the dark in her life may be this,’ •For shame, Mr. Bertram !’ said Carrie, ‘a wo man so gifted could not for an instant be thought insane.’ •Do not think I accuse hpr of insanity, I only stated a passirg idea, which, as yon say, is very crude. Did Miss Ennis ever tell you her histo ry?—bnt I suppose she did. being educated in a public school, all b»t music, painting and drawing and dancing. Her adopted father gave her those advantages.’ •Yes Mr. Bertram I know all that, and much more. How I shall miss her care in my music, I cannot take lessons now,’ said Carrie. ‘I am sorry for Miss Albers, she is uncomfort able over this affair,’ said Anna. ‘Yes, for she loves Eloise, there is a bond of affection between the two—first Miss Albers was her teacher and Eloise a pupil, and then her as sistant, which causes her to leel so much sorrow.’ Sidney Faiman entered the room greeting his sisters affectionately, and seated himself. ‘Well, what caused her sudden departure, what did she mean, where is she ?’ said Anna. ‘Miss Anna your ratiocination is very trite.’ ‘1 acknowledge all that Mr. Bertram, for 1 pre sume that the same questions are asked five hundred times a day.* •It was premeditated Miss Anna.’ ‘I have not sufficient perception to see her cause. Why should she flee from her friends ?’ Y do not suppose we will ever know. She will not return. We all once agrqed here Jthat she never undertook anything without meeting with success,’ replied Eugene. ‘Scarcely, I think,’ remarked Carrie, breaking in very sarcastically. ‘A trace to all sarcasm, Miss Carrie, I never wield that cumbersome weapon,—Miss Anna will you play for me ?’ Anna went to the piano and played a few waltzes from Stranss and among them ‘The Bine Danube.’ That waB one of Eloise's sweetest Eugene B>ft the Farm house and thought: ‘ bve her, it is her position.
