cotsn IVBUIL'.
C lUsiu N Ilia was the eldest daugh
ter of a respectable rind wqll-to-tirt far
mer, reeding near the little village of
Sitnpst n. Nellie was decidedly the
bmutyoftbe ftmily, petted and almost
sp i!cd by her brothers an I sitters,
yet so one eould help loving lnr; she
had dark-dluc eyes, .‘.nd light auburn
hair which hung in wnivy rinpl-ts t v r
her shoulders; she also presented a
sweet disposition, tendering her still
more charming.
Now Nellie, as a matter cour ts, had
ti grcu‘. many admirers, ai.d among tin tn
a certain Mortimer Hudson. She was
envied by half the girls in the neighbor
hood, and manor uv.-ring namma* shook
tin ir heads after vainly trying to secure
him for Susan Jane or. Mary Ann.
Mortimer Hudson was quite wealthy;
his broad acres extended far ami near
and many damsels sighed after their
blighted bopeu when the engagements
ol Mtrt'mer Huds-n and Nellie Tlusht m
was made pu bbc. They were to be mar
ried in J une, and great preparations
were being made for that event. Man
tua-makers and miliners were in great
demon 1, Nellie bavirg gone to Boston
to select Iter bridal tiossrau Mrs. Rur-h
- insisted that her rtaugbdcr should be
married in white silk, looped up with
flowers; in cl 1 maid . unt opposed five
measures, and strongly' advocated the
lljicy wl.i'o mus'in dress.
Wbili all wn piiei anljiy in the
Rushton manstm, another event was
transpiring that stiried ho U 'od in every
true pat riot heart Civil war loomed
darkly in the h rriz m ; Frt Stiratc r
bad been ti ed upon. The flig of the
South had bien flung to the bretzrsi
President Lincoln’* pr oclamadcn, call"
ittg for seventy-five thousand men, disk
cd along the wires thr ugh all the n 'rth
ern s ates.
Among the first that nobly responded
to the ca’l of his country was Mortimer
Hudson ; he enlisted in the-.luth Geor
gia lufantry as a private soldier-
Nellie ctull scarcely believe that be
would enlist in opposition to her wishes i
she was stunned and wept bitterly on
hearing the coafi rmafion es htr worst
fears; her heart was torn by conflicting
euio ions. Stern duty called, he would
obey. At length, after a smuggle between
love and pride, in which ptilo conquer
td, she decided she would pait from
him coldly.
When Mortirr er called tha* evening
Nr Hie received bin icily. He told her
their marriage would be unavoidably de
layed.
“Oh, it is of ud cons qucnce,’’6ai4
Nellie, loftily.
Mortimer was inrpri-tod and vexed;
he had expeeted a ddihrrrt reception ;
he appealed to her patriotism, to her
loyalty, hut all to no purpose, Nellie
was fitro.
“Ne’iic, d> you love me?” said Mor
tiraet.
“Ye o ,” sa ; 1 Nellie h sif.atingly.
“Then why oppose my going? I will
have you arrested for discouraging cn
enlistmcnts,” said Mortimer, mischiev
ously.
“There are enough men without yon,
said N l ie.
“Ye>,” exclaimed Mortimer, yet our
j honor nu.s be sustained. All the
! men a c needed at this critical hour.
• To-morrow we leave for the seat ot war,
, and 1 still have other calls to make to—
I night,” said Mortimer, glancing at his
i watch.
Nellie bade him gool-byo coldly ac
! cording to her determination.
The next day the regiment left *
for tli9 seat of war. The fiends
of the soldiers accompanied them to th :
depot; tears were in many eyes, far w 11
they knew that some of the brave men
would never mere return.
Nellie kept her room on pica of vio
lent head-ache; she half regretted not
havio-g bade Mortimer “God speed,”
Sho looked anxiously forward to Use
time wheu she might hear from him,
for he promised to write as scon as he
reached his destination. She haunted
the post- ffiec daily, although ralli.d
unmercifully by her faiv friends.
At length the loDg wished f a letter
arrived, and Nollte was wil 1 with joy.
Mortimer was in good spirits, aud wrote
cheerfully, giving ajdrscriplion of the
country and niiao tints llis whole
letter breathed a spirit of love. Nellie
wrote a reply, couched in kind and ass c
tionatc term*, tel i- g him sho had cen
c’uded not to correspond, but if at the
exp’ratien of his term es enlistment he
would return, loving her nil the s i te,
she would marry him as a reward for
his perse v r ranee.
About this time there came to the
little vill*:e of S a voting law
yer by the name of Gny Htmcrs. He
was gay and fascinating, and formerly
belonged to a wealthy family ; but the
constant isroa Is on tbeir wealth, by the
dissipnti nos Guy, soon threatened ti
diminish the ir CifT-rs, and be was oblig
ed to shift for himself or marry nn heir-

cas. As there weto two aht motives
loft, Guy choßo tha latter, f r the i lea
of working always ii.ado lim shudder
with bur <>r
1 1 was tit ti party in the village given
iu honor of his arrival that Guy Somors
first met Nellie llushtoc ; ho was instant
ly enamored of her beau'y, wit, and vi
vacity.
“Who is tha* girl?’’ lie sa : d with a
pensive stnil', to his hoste-s.
“U .i,t iaiis Miss Rush too ; would
you tike au introduction ?”
“Oh, no,” he replied, languidly.
“She is beautifil,” said the hostess,
“do you think so ?’’
“Oh, yes, hut is she rich? ;<
“Well, jes; hc-r aunt will leave her all
her property, besides considerable bauk
ttock.“
That was suflßoient f <r Guy; he made
his way across the ro -m to where Nellie :
sat chatting with a crowd of admi p tis,
who hung on awry word ns if she was
somo farn-us oraelcof ancient times. He-1
seated himself aud prepared for ci quest:
lia'v. at an ag e’,bH cou.ponion, as Nellie
sji n found, and talked on the most en
tertaining subjects. That night bo escor
ted N-11 c homo, and received permission
to call and see her.
G uy Somers became a frequent vis
itor at Mr Rusbton’s. He escorted s
Nellie to parties and j denies, and soon j
was ber acklowleilgeil lover. This \
made her more envied by the village
g'rls, for many n fair damsel bad do- j
tenmned to number Guy Somers in
the list of her admirers
Nullie was sitting in ber morn, en
gaged in a delightful reverie; she pic
tured to herself the sensation she
would create on her appearance among
the fashionable ladies of Boston At
the same time Guy Somers sat in his
room at the hotel. Let us listen to
him soliloquizing :
“Gny Somers, you are a lucky dog !
Eureka 1 the prize is mine ! Now if
the old rheumatic aunt was only out
of the ropd ! To-night I will leant my
fate. Mortimer Hudson, you arc rob
bed of your laurels. Poor fellow 1 I
pity jour fiirf rtuna’e ease 1”
He sauntered lazily down the street
towards the Pushton mansion, and
that night he returned tin accepted
lover cf Nellie Rush ton lie was per
feet’y happy, us the following later
will show :
“Peak Mother : —1 have at last
succeeded in entrap; ing a go] Jen heir
t-ss, Nellie Rush ton Ly name She is
quite rich, er cl e l would n«v r mar
ry ber. \Ye shall be married soon
I think I shall rent a house on Beacon
street.
‘ You; affectionate son, Gly.”
We \\ ill iow return to the Pattie
fieJd, where weTefc Nl rtuner bravely
fighting the battles of bis c unity.—
He lull been ia several engagements,
blit escaped unharmed. The battle of
Cliickihoroiny bad been fought and won
Thousands of brave soldiers had fall
en, and in in ning was in many house
holds.
Nellie Hush'on earg rly scanned the
I ape.-s containing an in count of the
buttle The loth Ga Infantry was
n the hottest of the action, and a norig
the list ni killed was the n -me of -'tor
timer Hudson. Thopgper fell front
her trembling bands, and yet she was
not sorry. Not that she wished him
dead, yet she Imil < fion thought she
coul-i never meet him again without
his despising Iter.
Guy Somers was admired by her
parents for bis eharming manners and
polished speech, and they ollerol no
objections to her marrying this city
g lulenum.
Mr. Rushton had specu’ated large
ly, and snms of no small amount were
tnnvnntly changing hands. The con
tinual woriv brought on a slow fever,
and he soon breathed nis last. Wo
will not dwell oil the grief of the fam
ily They were all assembled iri the
spacious drawin '-room to hear the
reading of the will, Guy SomeF.-j
among the rest. On opening the will
it was found that Mr. Kushton had
died insolvent. lie advi-ed them to
sell their house and move West.
Guy Somers" face was red and white

was ushbred into the parlor 1 A fig j

od ill deep mourning, and bade him;
welcome; it was Nehio, but oh, how
changed she was. Guy sex reel v re
cognizetkher.
“I thought you had forgotlefi mo; I
they told in* you would prove false,
but 1 knew you loved me dearly.—
Trouble never comes singly. My poor
aunt —I pity her, for it is rumored
that the bank bt.s failed aud all her
stock will be worthless.’’
“Failed 1” exclaimed Guy, with
drops nf perspiration standing on bis
forehead.
“Yes,” said Nellie, looking up won
daringly in his fare.
“Ahem ! ’ ho coughed dubiously,
“Miss Rusl ton, you astonish me."
“A*t -n sb you?” repeated Nellie.
“I u’ways understood you had a
large fortune of your own.”
“Guy Somers,” mo excla'med, in
dignantly, “do you mean to say that
yoa loved me for my money more than

“If you consider inv language in
that xny you cun do so,” ha said,
haughtily. “A poor bride I will nev

lie, “olid never define see your false

“Your will shall be obeyed, Miss

That night he JoT S , mourn

| All S— was on the Qui vice. —
Men were standing in gtoujs, talking
I earnestly, lor Mortimer Hudson had
come home alive and well, and Guy
Somers had left for parts unkri wn—
Mortimer had been taken prisoner and
eonfin and at Ft Delaware, but made
bis escape after suffe ing many hard
ships that try men's sou's, and arrived
in safety at S . Ho went to
Nellie to claim htr promise. She was
only too jdad to see him, for all the
world seemed false to her. lie talked
earnestly with her, and urged his
c’aiin,
“But T am so unworthy,” said Nel
lie, smiling through her tears.
‘•My darling,” he said, “you have
been purified by suffering. Let us be
gin 1 fe anew, dear Nellie.”
They were married in a few weeks,
and a happier couple cannot be found
than Mortimer and Nellie.

A Daisy’s B.'oGaApnv — Ar. editor
thus does up tbo biography of a re
cent ces ion to his household :
AVe have had so many kind friends
asking about that baby, that we tbougt
it neccersury to liogtuiph the chap
briefly, t.nd somewhat after the current
style of the day :
It’s a hot.
He’s a buster.
Weighs nine pounds and a quarter,
and old worn in tells ns that he will
grow heavier as hix weight increas
es.
He's the first boy of which we’ve
ever been proprietor, and of cause is
the only baby in town.
1 lie old women before mentioned
declare him the very image of his pa
*'A littlo copy of his faithful sire*
in face and gesture.’*
But in justice to the youth we mu*t
say wc think him an improvement on
the origxal —a world of progress you
know.
This young American was old as
could bo expected, considering the
time it was born, and will doubtless be
too old for bis father in a few venrs,
ts he has good luck.
Ho is quite ret Lent on politics, wild
only vauL tube let alone.
110 thinks he favors Mr*. Winslow'*
policy. ,-tij rt-v.nsT
Wo br.vn’t named him yot; w# want
to giro him n distinguished oognomen,
hut the fan**ot our great men is at
present to precarious that we don’t
Ijke the risk. ~ q
It is pie haps unnecessary to say, ns
all biographers do of diatingui.-hed
personages, hat the subject ol this
sketch was born at u very early nge,
of “poor, but respecter's parents.”
