,4. Jean’s Winter in the City. BY STEPHEN BBENT. CHAPTER X. Lent was coming, and the New Yonkers, crowded all the pleasure into these last days. ‘•On the principle, that two sins are no worse than one,” said Palmer. “It is just as easy to repent of a great many, as a few." The long, and brilliant season closed, with a masked ball, given by the Carrolls. “What character do yon intend to represent Jean? ’ inquired Mrs. Rivers. “I do not know aunty.” “Better go as innocence, or sweet simplicity,” said Della. They were in the library, and the invitations lay on the table. “>Vhat character do you intend to assume cousin?” asKed Jean. “I think I shall go as Helen of Troy” with a glance at her mother. “What nonsense,” said Mrs. Rivers impa tiently. “Well I will get Sir Angu* Lynn to select a suitable character," turning her engagement png on her slender white finger. ‘ ‘He has sue h exquisite taste.” Her mother frowned. “I see no use in you always making sarcastic remarks about your betrothed,” she said se verely. “Particularly when my heart, goes with my hand. We are” “Two souls with but a single thought, Two hearts that beat as one.” “You made the choice yourself." “Certainly, I do not regret it.” “Be Maria Antoinette,’ said Jean' “Poor unfortunate woman! No, let her rest in peace. I will be Undine, in pale sea green, and wear the lovely set of emeralds papa gave me yesterday." Mrs. Rivers touched the bell, and a servant came to the door. “Have the carriage at the door in an hour.” Turning to the girls, she continued. “I am going up stairs to dress now, and Jean, you must choose your character, by the time I come down.” Jean yawned. “Any thing will do. It is not necessary for me to take some particular character, is it Della ?” “No, but mamma will be displeased if you don’t.” Just then Mr. Palmer was ushered in. “You are doubly welcome,” said Miss Rivers, holding out her hand. “May I ask why?” with a glance at Jean. “Certainly you may. We have been discuss ing the all important sulject of characters, and costumes, for the masked ball; but Jean's fas tidious taste will not be satisfied. Will you kindly suggest something?” Jean smiled, but remained silent, closing her slim riagkss fingers over the arm of a chair. “How would Elaine, the lily maid of Astalat, do?” Jean shook her head. “Not at all.” “Why? ’ with a gravity, suitable to the impor tance of the subjeot. Because sLe was a lily maid, and I am dark.” “Well there is the Snow Maiden. We haye all read of that beautiful fiction.* “Yes,” said Della catching at tbe idea, “that was a brilliant thonght. Jean you must take that character." “Certainly if you wish it, but really I think the character ot a Country Girl would suit me best” ‘ Certainly not,” said Palmer coolly. “My white Snow Maiden, will suit her character perfectly.” The ball was a success, and the first rosy flush of dawn, was shining in the east, when the last carriage rolled from the door. The season was ended. For a time, the reign of Foliv, and Fashion, was over in New York; and with velvet bound prayer books in their hands, devotees knelt in the various churches, asking or pretending to ask, forgiveness for their sins. “What a mockery of religion,” said Palmer with a bitter contempt. “For a few weeks, these people will pray and sing psalms, then feeling that they have done their duty, will go back to their beloved world,” “But Mr. Palmer, tLey are not all that way,” said Jean gravely, and gently. “So nearly all, that no difference can be dis tinguished. They are incapable of having the steady abiding faith, of the true Christian. It is something their weak, frivolous minds can not understand.” “Forgive me, but I think you judge too harshly. They are only oareless.” “Jean”—it was not often he dropped the prefix to her name, “have you gone through a season in New York, without lobing your faith in humanity? Child tell me.” The clear frank eyes were raised to his. “It is impossible for me to If so my faith.” “Why impossible? Will you tell me the se cret? ’ He was not jesting, The anomaly was too rare, and he really wished to know the cause. A reverent look stole ovtr the young girl’s face. “I know that I have been discontented, and am prone to desire my own way; but I believe in a great and just God, and He would not cre ate any thing th-. t was ignoble, and I know that under all the imperfections that cling to hu manity, like a bad garment, there is something good acd true.” “Yet you have a good txample of falseness, before you every day, in your cousin's mar riage. “Poor Della,” said Jean with tender pity. “She would have been all noble, if rightly taught. She is generous, and kind hearted, and it frightens me think how bitterly she will have to repent her mistake.” “I do not think she will repent. She will have all that she asks for, so repentence would be useless.” ‘ Surely you do net know my cousin, if you think she will be satisfied.” “Well I have every reason to think so,” Jean was silent. Not even to this friend of the family, could she tell of the restless dissat isfied heart, under the gay, contented exterior. The days flew swiftly by, bringing the twenty- first of April very near. Just one week before the wedding day, Cecile died. The sad, young life ended peacefully, the soft, large eyes closing, with a beautiful smile in their depths. Jean and the old French artist were there, and for the second time in her life, the young girl saw death. It was a lonely April night, moonless, but with clear star gemmed skies, aud a breath of Spring in the crisp air. Once Jean bent ovtr the child, and WhlS- Pered. , |Ati “Dear is the way very dark? The cim eyes flashed with brilliant light “No. it is so bright, that I can see through the pearly gates, and up the golden streets _ ol the New Jerusalem. Sister are the stars shin ing?” , • ^ Meg drew the curtains away from the window and a large star shone down into the little room. “Raise me up please,” she whispered so y. Her father, sobered for the time, lifted her in his arms, and she took one last look at the great shining world. Suddenly a change came over her face. “Mother—dear mother, I am here, and I will never le a cripple any more. Father kiss me, and mother saj s come—I—Meg, Harry be”—she folded her hands, and the gentle patient child was dead. They buried h< r in a sunny corner of the great cemetery, and Jean’s tears fell like rain, as she thought that never again would the slight form rest in the arm chairs or the pale patient face be lifted with a smito at her com ing. How strange, h >w awful a thing is Death. The wariu blood chills at the bare thought of clo - tog the eyes, and never again opening them here. We long tofiuiteiy for all the mysteries of exUt- ence to be explained, but we shrink from the price that mi.st be paid before we cun solve them. Jean’s brief acquaintance with the crippled child, was a great benefit to her. It taught her thelei-son of patience, and the folly of attach ing too much importance to the things of this world. Life is short at best, a passing shadow, and why fill it with bitter sighs, and moans, simply because we have no worldly hGnors: It is a great mistake when a person thinks that he would be happy if he was rich, if he whs fam ous, or anything else great in the eyes of men. When his object is attained, be will turn away with the weary heartsick cry, all is vanity.’ That night Jean wrote to her aunt. Near the close she put in a paragraph, that she knew would make the kind old faoe, brighten with pleasure. 'And now dear aunty, there is bat one more thing. The good seed that you took so much pains to 60w in my mind, are Bpringing up, and I humbly hope that in future years they will bear fruit.’ It woe the eve of the wedding day and Miss River’s elegant trousseau had alljust arrived. It was all laid out in the upstairs parlor, silk, aatin and laces, thrown across chairs, and tables, with piles of light summery dressea, all dirsot from Paris. The bridal dress, veil and wreath, came in a seperate box. You had better try it Della,’ said Mrs. Rivers shaking out tho folds ot pure white satin. •Certainly if you wish it mamma, though I think to-morrow will be time enough to put on »• sacrificial robe.' Jean fastened on the veil and wreath, and shook out the train. Well,’ said Delia with a little bitter smile, ‘do I look fair enough to be the bride of an English Baronet?’ •You are fair enough to be the bride of a king,' said Jean with quiet, but in ten so ad miration. ‘Thank you,’ turning around before the mirror. ‘It is perfect,’ said her mother. ‘Della my child, you will be the loveliest bride that the sun ever shone cn.‘ •Provided the sun shines on me, which I doubt.' The maid came in with a oard. ‘Mr. Palmer is in the library, and wants to see Miss Jean.’ Jean went down stairs, wondering what it could be. Palmer came forward to meet her, his usually composed face wearing a shocked expression. ‘What is it,’ 6he asked, her face paling. ‘Sit down and I will tell you.’ She sank down in the chair he drew forward, a shuddering dread holding her silent. Mr. Palmer retained her hand in his warm clasp, and gently said: •Do not tremble so child. I have bad news, but it does not affect you directly.’ ‘Please tell me what it is, will you ?’ plead ingly. •Sir Angus Lynn was thrown from his carri age two hours ago.’ Jean drew a sjgh of relief.- She had i»aginod all ktotf of jrarrois. ‘And was he badly hurt?’ ‘Dear, he was killed. A dead silence followed. The last shadow ol color left Je-n’s face. It was worse after all, than she had thought. Sir Angus Lynn dead, and it the eve of his wedding day. Was the world slipping from under her feet? She clung to the strange hand, that held her’s so closely, feeling that it alone would save her from slip ping out into an unknown world. Mr. Palmer waited for her to recover from the sudden shock feeling a fierce desire to draw the drooping head to his shoulder. ‘How awful it is,’ she said at last in a low, grave vo^ce. ‘Yes it is shocking. I thought it best to tell you first, and let you break the news to your cou«in.’ Jean shuddered. •Poor man, I am so sorry. ’ ‘It is hard for a man to have to give up life so suddenly; but then according to your religion, all things are for the best. It is a terrible thing, but there is no help.’ ‘No,’ sighed the young girl. ‘There is no help; but the help God can give. ‘Which is all powerful,’ said Palmer gravely. ‘I must go now.’ For a moment he held her hand between both of his; then left. Jean went slowly up stairs, wondering how she could tell her cousin, that her bridal would be turned into a burial. She knew Della did not love Sir Angus; but for all that, she knew it would be a terrible shock to her. Miss Rivers was sitting by the window, the yellow April sun shine, making a halo round her beautiful proud head. Mrs. Rivers and Sarah the maid, were packing all the costly array that littered the room, in large traveling trunks. Wedding garments that would not be needed. As Jean came to, her cousin turned with a smile, and said: ‘What did Mr. Palmer want if I may ask ? He did not Good heavens Jean ! what is the matter? You look like a ghost.’ Mrs. Rivers dropped the evening dress of pearl white crape, that she was carefully fold ing, and turned around. •Della how you frightened me.’ Jean sat down by her cousin. ‘Mr. Palmer -I—oh Della how can I tell you!’ ‘Tell me?’ ‘Yes, Mr. Palmer brought bad news.’ Miss River’s face paled to deathly whiteness. •I—is it Lennox?’ she asked in sudden dread. •No it is Sir Angus Lynn.’ ‘What of him ?’ asked Miss Rivers almost harshly. ‘I cannot break news gently,’ Jean said, tears in her eyes. He was thrown from his carriage to-day.’ ‘He was not severely injured, I hope,’ she said quietly Jean turned her head away. ‘Dear Della, he is daad.’ TO BE CONTINUED.
