Mark Dunton’s Fa tal Error. From Bt. Louis Magazine.] ‘I have been cruelly deceived in you Elsie, and I loved you o fond ly! T'can never trust womam again; they are all false, I heard, but would not believe, until my‘ eyes gave witness, that she to whom I gave my wholg heart was | not true to me; and as I have ever told you, the woman who would be my wite, must be. mine alone; she must resign ajl attentions from others. My pride wiil not brook arrival, “hen I saw you last evening in such close and confidential convers sation with one whose name rumor 'has coupled with yours.too deep ’ly interested in him (v:n to no~ tice my entrance, T could no lon ’ ger blind mgself to your base per— fily. so I vow bhid you adieu fur ever, hcping that you may find greater happiness in the course you are now pursaing, than you could have found as my wife. You need not seek to deceive me again I close my eyes and ears hencetorth to your voice. and shall put myselt beyond your influence. To-mor row I start on a long journey, for an absence of years. I give you the freedom which I suppose | vou have been pining for. Fare- 4 well forever ' Magrk Duxros.” Elsie Deane read this letter to the end. twice, thrice: and even then the full meaning of the words refused to enter her mind, or rath er her mind failed to comprefi;ml all they implied. At last the let ter dropped from her verveless hand, and a look of deep despzlir‘ crept into her blue eyes, and she held out her hands, imploringly to< her companion, as if in human sympathy and sisterly love she might find succor for her stricken heart. 3 Oh Aggie, Aggie, what have 1 done, that he can be so cruel? The cup, already filled too full of sor row, is new overflowing. Read it, Aggie, and tell me what it means, Oh, he does not know me ! he does not know what those bitter words are to me, to fail me at the first breath of suspicion! Read it.” and her trembling hands grasped the letter and gave it to her compan ion; then with her face buried in her hands, she listened in silence to the reading again of the words, which conveyed to her the deepest sorrow which had yet darkene(f‘ her oversjoyous life. ‘(‘an it be, Elsie, that he has heurd that disgracetul story about Henry--or—no, it seems not that. He must be laboring under some! mistake, and you ought to seek an explanation.’ l ‘Never,” exclaimed Elsie, with flushed cheek and flashing eyes, ‘he already.anticipates that, and has put the seal of eternal silence upon me He casts me off for mere rumor, and never will I de mean myself to seek him, nor beg that which he has already refused. I am never to be happy in loving. Oh, lifeis hard to bear! As the overburdened clouds find relief in rain, o, her overburdened heart tound comfort in a plentiful shower of tears, ‘Do not weep, Elsie. Jf he loves you he cannot give you up without further explanation, and you will see him or hear from him agnin soon.’ . *You do not know him,Aggie,’ re plied Elsie; ‘he is very proud, and as he larv{e. will not brook any rivs alry. He has several times inti muied that he had hexrd some re marks in re;ard to Mr. Corey and raysel;but secure in my own innos cence, | evaded the subject, little thinking it would lead to this, X ‘couidnot then tell Wit Gur Secipt. not until poor Harry’s fate was de cided. Last evening. when Mr, Corey was here, and telling me of his last interview with Harry,some ene entered the next room, whom I now believe to have been Mark, We were conversing in a low tone, and I was on the point of rising t> see who the intruder was, when the outer door closed again; 1 sup posed it was one ot the servants: and took no further notice of the circumstance. I had decided to tell Mark as scon as Hurry left the place again; but it is too late! H's hasty jealously has ruined all our future happiness, "Oh! Aggie, can I ever endure this?” | ‘lf this is to be his line of con duet, it is better for you to sepa rate now,” replied her cousin, *miich better than to marry one of those supicious jealous men, who are ceeking for evil in every un explained act. Such a man could { not make a wife happy, and you, my noble Elsie, with your free iny-| ous nature, what sort of a life would you live as the wife of such a one?” *Ob! believe me, darling.” con- , tinued she, fondly clasping her triend’s hand, ‘that, however bit-‘ ter the blow now seems to you,you will yet see the truth as I do, that this very jealousy renders-hing, une l worthy of yoy, if Le possessed such decp priciples of fidelity as you do, he could not act as he has acted.’ Elsie Dean and Mark Dunton | had been engaged for a year and al day, and six mouths inore were to | have passed before their nuptials were celebrated. She was an or phan,and had inherited at the death of Qer father, an elegant | mansion; situated at the capital of | the Buckeye Stat:, and certain landed estates several miles there from, which altogether made her quite an heiress. She was past the | first bloom of girthond, and had ar rived at the mature age of twenty four, when she gave the first affec tions of her heart to Mr. Dunton. The latter was a resident of an ad- Juming State; a rising author, with something of a fortune to help him along his thorny road He wasa remarkably handsome man, dark and grave, but pride was one ot his ruling passions. Not tha' kind of pride which is only a stron ger name for gelf-respect, and which helps to raise us by our own mer its to a peerage with the noblest and the best; but it was of that other variety, which has its origin in self-esteem,or in pure selfishness, ‘such as leads us to feel that what is ‘ours is sacred, be~ause it is ours, } and that no one has the most dis ‘tant right to encroach upon the territory which Great I poasesses. But Elsie thought she could conquer him with a woman’s wea pon of love, and trusted her trath and fidelity would uproot the seeds of bitterness which were so firmly planted in his nature. Itis mot to be thought thatl Vark Dunton wrote and sent that | letter without one bitter pang or! one heartache. No--the preceeding | night was a slecpless one for him | for be loved Elsie with all the love | of is deep, passionate nature, and | trusted her asfar as he was capa-‘ ble of trusting: perhaps if he had | loved her less he might have trust- | ed her more. Ido not know,some say jealously is a constituent of true love; while othurs say thut without Pperfect confidence there cannot be perfect love. But Mark like many apother man, thooght‘ he was right, and clang so Tut ently to what he comifieradpa;:oof of her guilt,that he would give her no opportunity to uadeceive him, orto-deceive him agniu, but started immediately. as 3aid for other mfiwm{fi “hoped to forget his wronge, and lose sight of the face which haunted his wak ening and his aleeping hour, He visited all the notz,hle sights seeing places in our own beautiful land, He traveied over the wide north,and wandering about the sun ny touth: and when he ‘unl he could not forget her, then he said, ‘T will put the ocean hetwaen us; while our feet tread the same land, while the same skies are over our heads, I cannot torzet Rer T will visit the old world and surely i the wondrous scencs, and all the new associations which will be around me there, I may learn to forget or if wuot to forget. my wounds will b¢ healed. " Oh, wo man thy pame is inconstaney.’ But, Oh! Man, thy name is in consistency. | e visited London— great, busy, crowded, grand and filthy London. - He found much food for thought.for ‘thoughts that breathe and words that burn;’ he wandered over the bonnie banks and braes ot auld Scotlapd, visited many of the scenes ot Sir Walter Scott’s old tales—old yet ever new. From thence he went to Paris, the seat of fashion and gaiety; one whole year he spent in wandering over the vine-clad hills of Switzer land; thence to the clasic shades of Greece, and to the land of sunny skies. Everywhere he'was greatly respected, but he made few friends; people called him the‘proud Amer ican;” ho beeame.more bitter and cynical than ever, and thought that his disappointment gave him right to be so. But he could not lose remember ance of her he had left—the mem ory ot departed days clung to his heart, and he could not banish regret amid these scenes they had so often talked of visiting together. At length, when nearly five years had dragged their weary length along, he determi .ed to retrace his steps and turn his face homeward. Hlis pen had not been idle during all these years, but many an elo quent word from foreign lands had found its way across the sea, from the gifted and popular author, whose name still rising in Fame's calendar. He pursued his home ward journey, but slowly; linger ing again at many ot the the spots he had hastily viewed before, In Paris, one day walking slow ly in the Rue St Marie, an appear lation appeared before him, which almost stunned him with eurprise, “Duuton!” 3 ‘Corey!” were the involuntary exclamations of both. The recogr nition was mutual and simultans eous-—ou his part it became cold ‘and distant, as recollection of the 1 -ast meeting flashed across him. To the other it was pleasant to see a home face ir a strange landy ‘Well, Dunton, I scarcely knew you, you look ton much of the for eigner; I fear you have forgotten your native land emtirely in the | love ot your adopted one,’ | *Oh, no indeed,” returned Mark, ‘I am onmy homeward bound | trip, but am progréssing but s!fow | l ly, picking up and reviewing old scenes before I bid them adieu fors ever. Have you been here long?” ! ‘I came to Paris three months - ago,” repled orey, ‘and shall be |here only two weeks more. This is a business trip with me.’ ‘ls your—-is your family with you? Faltered Dunton. ‘My family?” queried Corey, ‘to whom do {ou refer? I had none but a mother, and I baried ber 3 | years ago’ ; ‘I thought-——perha‘: you were marricd—ot course before this. How loug is it since you were in v { Tlett there three years nince: should have gone sooner,bad it not ‘ beon for poor Harry Deane; I promised his sister Elsle that 1 }wnuld see him safely out of bis difficulty. That done, I removed to the East, where I have remsin ed, until six menths ago I came to England, ‘I never heard of Harry Deane,’ exclaimed Dunton, not too proud now to seck an explanation, ‘I knew Elsia, but never knew whe had a brother; there must be some mistike. I'thought you were to mrry her. “Unever hope dfor such an hon or,” responded the other, “thought she was a noble and lovely %uirl, but she was when I first knew her, engaged to a man who cruelly de serted her hecause he heard of her brother’s disgrace; his ~ base desertion nearly killed Elsie, I was counsel for Harry, and knew the family well. Before old Mr. D-ane’s death, Harry was wild, and behaved so altogether bad, that the old gentle man Cisinherited him. After his death, Harry came back, but dared not openly show his face. As Mr. Deane was a special friend of mine, I was the means of afew meetings between the brother and sister, for Elsie always loved him and thought him innocent. He died two years ago, but no one exeept myselt out side of the family knew his where abouts.” Dunton seemed like one paras lyzed; he bade Mr. Corey adicu, aund sought his room. What a crowd of recollections came throng ing into his brain; doubt and dismay, sorrow snd re morse, Could he have been wrong? Had his own hastiness led him into‘ an error which bad been the source | of five years of unremitting sorrm?\" and regret? . Such women a: Elsie Deane are. not loved lightly and forgottea eas-‘ ily. Whoever gives his whole heart into the keeping of such an ona can uever reclaim it. The words of a gifted authoress, come so fast upou my thought, that T must bor row them: ““There was in her spiritual charm which, whena man recoznizes in a woman , is an at traction a 8 mysterious as it is irres istible —makes him crave for her as the one necessity ofhisex tence —risk everything to win her —and having won her, love her to the last with a passion which survives all change, all decay.” Mark Dunton at last admitted the truth of this, and the days that must elapse before he could reach home seemed interminable. That night, when the midnight ‘bells chimed, he was writings ~ “My deeply wronged Elasie, Five years ago a miserable, brokenhearted man left, in a jeah ;ous passion, all that was dear to lhim on earth, to travel in foreign llnnds, that he might forget one ' whom he believed talse to him. | do not justify myself, Elsie; I ean now look back and see that I was relfish and exacting, uuworthy the love of a woman gs pure as you. 1 am unworthy still, but Elsie, 1 have passed through a fiery furnace of affliction, and I thiuk I can safe ly say that the seeds of jealons bit termess are eradicatad from my Leart.
