THE THREE SISTERS.
A STORY OF REAL LIFE.
, nr " I EOLA.”
|. “ Tia no wil<|/relics, dark with woe,
Ami danger that I broethe to thee,
But truthful all. ita nuntliera flow,
J tell it *a 'tnne told to me.”
In the suburbs of A , many years ago, ]
there dwelt a young eouplc who had accumu
lated by habits ol industry and economy. quite
n nice little property. Happinew was smiling
sweetly on their vinc-elud cottage, and whis
pered of a bright future in store where their
loved-ones should move in a higher sphere,
and fortune's richest gifts should be poured at
their feet.
Mary Welborn was a beautiful girl of only
sixteen summers when Charles Raymond .-aw
her for the first time a “ blooming lassie in her
country home," and from that momeut he lov
ed her ns he never hnd loved before.
He had roamed over many lands, and bask
e I in the radiant light of many beautiful smiles,
i but none charmed him s > much rh that which
played around the fresh lip of bis “blue-eyed
Mary.”
Farmer Wellborn disliked the fascinating
city graces of his daughter's suitor as much
as the shining broad doth he « re, and slyly
.cautioned Mary against “any Idl. w «7io
I mould wear tokukers, (an unpardonable s:n in
i his belief,) and a heavy gold dii»n.” " Take
Billy Stokes, my child, and I'll wager there's
a warmer heart throbbing beneath his home
spun than could ever live under the satin vest '
' of this powdered knight.”
What could poor Mary say? Iler tender
h art was already a captive in Love’s mystic
chains, and was now fluttering vainly like a
caged bird.
Charles Raymond, who was really good at
heart endeavored, iu vain, to win tho old gen
tleman's esteem, but lie objected in ne and
more, and one evening the lovely Mary left
her father's home forever. Kind Heaven
heard the marriage vow breathed under her
: dear brother's roof, and she never bad cause to
I regret this daring step which is so ofteu pun
ished with blighted hopes.
Many years of married life had passed away,
and in that time Farmer Mell bom died, hut
I bequeathed none of his vast wealth to th
daughter who had left his roof f ir that of the
i polished stranger.
Together Charles and Maty had toiled and
struggled, until the'r industry was rewarded
; with a handsome income. Wood Cottage was
l cheered by the merry pratlie of childinxxl, and
their brightest treasures were the little girls
Eloise, Eriia, and Estelle.
Twas when roaming over the surrounding
• forest, and sitting beside its gurgling rills, that
Eloise gathered from nature all those glitter
ing gems of poesy that have cheered so many
kindred souls, la the sympathizing voices of
its grand old woods, its melting cadences, and
thrilling chords—its I ve whisperings and
fairy-like melody—her young heart delighted
more than in the richest strain from any hand
iftstrument. Its wild mountain scenery, bright
• tinted clouds, and rainbow hues, told her ol
higher poetry toan the brighust genius c uld
1 ever paint in language, and she grew up un
der these holy influences, fa'rer, ] urer, than
even the white flowers which bloomed under
her feet.
How vividly in imagination I can behold
her graceful form—fragrile. though bouyant
with health, n wildwiod wreath about her
brow, and the lire- vs genius beaming ia her
soul-lit eyes! It is n t u wonder, then, that
so many youthful poets should have tuned ■
their willing harps and p. tired forth tl.eir I
sweetest songs in her praise. L '-ng. gentle
and kind, she was a universal favorite ; and j
Nature had lavished on her tiie glowing giftof
a beautiful f ce, an intelligent inind, and a p;>- I
el’s soul. What more could she have done ?
The next younger sister Erica (the he'Jwi
bell) was mild and affeetionaie—much resemb- j
ling Eloise in form and feature—but in the
darker eye was a sad expression which told oi
a clouded future, and a destiny to love tar
more earnestly than common mort Is. “Be
gentle to me" was written on every lineament
of her pale face, and, like the flower f>r which
she was name.l, a rude step might crush its
tlmi l leaves, and imprint there a bruise for
ever.
And now comes Estelle, gay, laughing and
mischievous Estelle—the Fght < f her home
and “fay of the woods,” who cared not wheth
er she was liked or not—the wildest flower of
all, and controlled by none. What shall I say
1 of her?
Shall I tell of her dazzling bounty, her way
ward disposition and the awful manner in
which she lacerated the many hearts that wor
shipped her ?
Not yet, for I have already passed over ma
nv incidents in the childhood of those sisters,
while dwelling on ti.elr beauty i f after y ears.
One evening the winds madly howled around
Wood Cottage, and dark < I aids gathered in
; the heavens, teljliigofn storm tluit would prove
dangerous to those exposed to its fury.- Wiih
in, a bright lire was gl i.ving on the hearth,
and around gather" 1 the children,
heedless of the wild storm without ami amus
ing each oilier with fairy tales. J/ary had
wheeled the arm chair in the corner, w ith the
w.sil slippers near, which her own fair bands '
bad knit for the loved one. Every thing that
could please his eye, she hnd tastefully arrang
ed, and the tea-table, with its smoking cakes
and brow n wafers, might have tempted an ep
icu.c of the most fastidious taste. Every mo
ment she visited the window with an eager
I
hope cf seeing tho tall form of her husband
amid the lightning's gleam; but hour after
hour passed away, and he came not, At length
she concluded that he would not dare to cross
the river on each a night, and breathing a
prayer that he might be safely slumbering in
hi* counting house, she tenderly kissed her
Children and sought repose. Again she was a
timid girl in her father's home, ne’er dream
ing of love ’till before her stood Charles Ray- ,
mond iu all the pride of manhood. The scene
Changed, and sue was standing on the batik of
a dark, dark river—lie is swimming towards
her, and soon his strong arms will support her.
A heavy hand from the river’s depth clutches
his throat and drags him d ra n underneath its
white foam, but rising again, he conquers the
unseen foe, and is almost at her side. .4 third
time he rises, hut the long, dark hair is floating
■ over his shoulders and ihc lustrous cyesaic

A loud shriek aroused her from her broken

intently for ttotnc minutes, but hoard it.no

not sleep again, and in listening to tin storm,
and watching the lurid Cashes of lightning,

Oh. what a del glitlul sei. atiun filled my
liuart, at the fir t sight of this 1 ively S:a ■. mi l

poet’s command of language, then those gray
' rocks, cool shaded valleys, and the winding
paths which lead over tlicm, should he my
theme, for

Her sleopinj greens, her inruiiitaiiis beat by storms,
Her winding ?tr : ms, her ev< r rolling »av. ,
Her cooling shades, her deep ami dismal eaves !"
1 enjoyed the trip out hero, oh! so much,
and often when tho white road wound through
green woodsand flowery vales, we left the car
riage for a walk. I crowned my sweet cousin
“queen of the woods," with a wreath of Juni
per, and white violets which we found in quan
tities, and her young husband seemed to think
in. lovelier form had ever graced a thorne.—
But let me not forget, while enumerating ...e
wonders and delights of my journey, one of the
meloucholy pictures with which 1 was stru k,
for 1 ba l fancied, that in such a beautiful, and
i romantic dwelt but happiness,
peace and content.
On one of the mountain passes, we met a
beautiful creature, whose wavy blond hair fell
carelessly over her bare b'.ut'l.T ; and whose
rich dress so led and torn, plainly indicated,
that she had once moved in a high circle. She
was roaming about over the rocks, seemingly,
in search of flowers, and singing in broken
snatches, some popular air, tint perhaps in
other days, had cheei cd the hearts of those who
lov -1 her. But those friends, where were they
now ? She called herself “ crazy Leize,’’and I
shall never forget that countenance, beautiful
though marked with misery and distre s, and
melting eyes, which sometimes assumed so
tierce an expression, that 1 feu ed to approach
her. I longed to know the cause of her dis
tress, and c.i leavorcd by kim'.ne -, to restore
her reason ; but the next lend of the roed, hid
her from us, and 1 have never seen her since i
that day.
August 6th.—With what enchantment na

sat there, and read until breakfast, a work on
health, and indui :ry, where the author says
whenever I sec tiie native bloom of health,
and the genuine smile of content, I mark
down the character ns industrious ; so on the
other hand, when I meet with pale, repining,
languid discontent, andhearc miplaint* against
the hard lot of humanity, my first impression
is.that they are indolent. For industry, is the
mother of virtue and health, and these are
the narents of happiness; while idleness is the
mother of vice an Idi iconteat, immediate par
ents of human misery." 1 have often noticed
