I had i
s I.ovc.
tb I mi most in-
ii'-ociaUxl with Edwin dc Give,
n r known the date intimney of
Iinitht rh - <1, 1 ^in j an only child, and he,
to a great extent, had taken a brother'*
place in my heart. We had attended day
and grammar schools together, and oar
college life waa pawed at Yale in the
■une friendly relation we had always en-
joy.d. Daring oi. ■ of onr vacation..—
that intervening between onr junior and
senior terms—ire concluded to moke a
walking tour through one or two of the
Eastern States, returning only in timo
for the commencement of the last session
of our - bool days. Most delightfully
did we pass the time—wandering through
Talleys, climbing mountains, resting in
the farm-houses by tho way, many times
sleeping out in the open air, feeling that
security from danger which only comes to
us in earth’s silent places. In one of the
villages where we preposed spendings day
or two.having token letters of introduction
from one of our professors to a friend .Edwin
become so fascinated by the beauty and
charms of a young Southern girl he met
with difficulty I per-
thcre, that it
auaded him to continue our travels. From
the hour ho met her. his whole nature
seemed changed. From a cold, repul.
sire rather than engaging manner, be
becamo animate.). brilliant and attrac
tive. Quiet in his deportment usually,
he' now plungi<f into every gaiety that
presented itself, and from his almost
wonderful conversational gift*, handsome
person and evident efforts to please, be
came remarkably popular among the old
oa well aa the young memliera of society.
I had been so accustomed to receiving
confidential communications from my
fellow-student* as regarded their lore af
fairs, having heard them pledge them-
aelvea to constancy aa often as they found
a now face that' provod attractive for
the moment, that I had but little doubt
I should soon sritneos a similar change in
him. After our vacation was post, wo re
turned to our duties and as ail thedaysand
a good portion of each night were given to
hard study, hut little time was left to do-
veto to the romance of life. Edwin se&
dom mentioned the namonf his loved one,
and I never knew, save by on increased
desire for solitude which occasionally j><,»
sesaed him, whan her letters came.

< I".-o of Io.m rnivonot.i ■ ■ r • . in.I I ic .or
Iuvid my friend so well as the day an
which ho delivered hi* valedictory ad-
, dress, for then I felt that my pride as
well as my loro was gratified, and I
gloried in the honors lumped upon him,
for J felt and knew they were well Ixj-
! stowed. Freto os we will about the purity
of friendship, no man or woman ever
1 Joyed friend or lover the less for tho poi-
| session of those faculties that; inspire a
i fueling of admiration ami pride in other
liodoins than one’s own. We were to re-
' turn to Georgia by way of tho Virginia
beauty's home, and Edwin was all impa
tience till we had turned our faces south
ward. On our arrival at tho homo of his
lovod one, he became engaged, with the
consent of her guardian, and his early
marriage was considered an established
fact. After lingering a week, nil of which
timo was passed by my friend in acts of
devotion to his betrothed, wo resumed
our travels, I. with a feeling of ocstacy
nt tho thought of soon joining those ho
dear to me, and ns wo neared our heme
my spirits rose in proportion as tho down-
east looks and sighs of sorrow, which it
secured impossible for Edwin to shako off,
increased.
Our lost day’s journey was’spent by
hint ill almost entire silence, nnd tlm only
remark f remember his having volun
teered to make, was, that olthongh Ids
love had prospered, been returned, nnd
there was apparently no reason why a
speedy consummation should not take
placo, he feltn conviction he in vain tried
to shake off, that some unforeseen event
would occur by which ho would never
claim os his own, the woman ho loved.
Tho joy of reaching home, the warm wel
come ertendod by his family and friends
foiled to remove this burden of fear
ful presentiment which he indulg.sl. nnd
by indulging increased, till I scarcely re
cognized in tho morose, brooding, restless
mult, my friend who only a short while
ugo had boon so full of hope and antici
pations of a brilliant life and a happy one.
lie novor spoke to me of any misunder
standing that had taken place lretwoen
them, and I have never known how the
change came about.
I was called away from home unexpect
edly. nnd my stay w as prolonged by a stto-
cession of emnimstaneiw which rendered
my return impracticable. At tho expira
tion of three months I wont back to C' ,
and on my jlrriv.il received fearful ac
counts of tho efforts a disappointment in
love bad had upon my friend. I went the
licit day to «oo him, ami such n wroek of
manhood I pmy.Qod I may never witness
again. He knew mo at once, nnd in the
■pilot of despair handed me a letter, tell
ing in,- ’twas the last he had received,
and asked me to road to lu’m what I sliall
hero make public os well ns I ennremem
ber the wonts, after tho lapse of so many
years.
W V*., May. 1840.
Just before leaving my native Land, f
steal a moment from tho leave-taking of
the dear ones nround me. to bid good-hvo
to you, my friend—a long, loot good
bye. In an hour I shall have loft the
horn*Of childhood, and before this reaches
you, I shall bo on the ocean withFmncis,
my husband, eldest son of Lord Henry
Ormon l. of norsetshire, England, who - ^
we shall make onr home. The little e p ’j;

our fancied ndinimtion for each .ithcr

doing tliut, and, of course, she did noth
ing of t he sort, not she. She matched
firmly up to tb" window, and in tones not
more than half as dnleet a* those she had
used on entering the lank, asked for the
money oa that check. Now, if she hod
l*.,-n a man, she would have been snubbed
by the t Her, shoved by the men, laughed
nt by the boys, and generally badly
treated; but. 1 sting a woman, she was let
alone, partly from politeness, bat more
because it would take more time to rea
son with her than to let her have her own
way—to say nothing of the chances of
her having it anyhow. So the paying
teller took the check, glanced at it after
tho manner of his class, and politely in-
qnired. “ Large or small bills, madam w*
lint by this time madam had lieoome lost
in meditation on the question of how she
would trim that new walking suit, and it
was some timo before she could be arous-
en—in fact, the question had to be re-
peatod, not quite so politely.
“ What ? Oh! yeas, let me see. Large,
I guess.”
Three or four of those marvellous flashes
of the hands and the bills are before her
Of course die had to count them, and you
know how a woman counts money. First
she takes one bill off the pile and looks

at it suspiciously and lays it down a little
ways off; then she takes the next one and
then the next, counting out loud all tho
time, and then she mislays a bill, and
finally she looks up and says it ain’t right,
and then sho counts it locks again and
guesses she may Ire right after all. All
that this woman did, and that paying-
teller and those men and beys looked on
and called her blessed—only they spoiled
it the other way, and then that blessed
woman rolled up that money and put it
in that Bussia-leathcr portemonnie, and
then she bit her lip and looked thought
ful, and then sho said in “velvet voice
“Couldn’t yon give me small MUs for half
of this f" The paying-teller intimated
that it was in the resources of the hank,
whereupon she unrolled tho bills and
c.irefnlly counted off half, which sho can
tiously handed over, getting tho small
bills in rctnrn.
Then she rolled these up and put them
in the portmonnaic, but they filled it so
full it wouldn’t clasp, and of course she
couldn't go up Brvndwwy with it gaping
open. So, after she had tried tosbntita
few times, she said: “Oh, dear! they’re
in sueha wad.eonldn't you give me about
twenty-fivo dollars in small bills and
the rest in large ?’’ Silently that teller
took those bills; his heart was too full for
utterance; mournfully he made the ex
change nnd solemnly he handed lock the
money. Ho didn’t swear out loud, lint
liia lips were moving, and if that record
ing angel who blot till Uncle Toby’s «tth
with a tear was on duty that day he must
hare had a severe crying spell just then.
At last, at half-past two, sho rolled up
those bills, put them in that portmonnaie,
picked up her parasol nnd gloves, which
she lis/1 laid on tho shelf, and smiled
sweetly and said:
“There! They said I couldn’t get a
cheek cashod; but I told ’em I knew I
could;and I have.”

Tlio 0]»elousa*, La., Jonrnal. of tho
loth, is responsible for the following:
“Down in the Parish of St. Martin, an
old widow lady, whose children had all
married off and left Jujr alone, had been
persuaded to sell her littl o placo and livo
with them. She sold her land, building?*
and improvementsono day for $2,000, and
received tho money in cash on the spot,
in her own honse, where the act of salo
was passed Indore two witne «es, the num
ber n»quLre<l by law, and wlio witnessed
also the pay in" of tho money. In a short
time she was to pive ]»oss«*H.sion, but sho
remained in the house the ni^ht following
tho sale, all alone, or with no masculine
adult inmatur, as was her custom. That
night, two nc£ro burglars broke into
the hwwo and demanded her money
or her life. She Rave it- to them, but
them to lot her have $100 ol*
it. as «ho oworl that rjnount and wanted
tA nay the ilrbt, when sho would be satis
fied. They finally consented to let her
keep tho $700. They then ordered her
to mako soma coffee for them to drink.
In doinp; bo. she l>cthought herself of
ftotnu stryelmino she had in tho house,
andquicUy dropped It in tho pot of
st-.sunin^ coffee, and placed it on the ta
ble, with cups, spoons and supar forthom
to pour out suid sweeten to their taste.
This they ddd, and drank in a jolly mood,
each ono hnvin" nine hundred and fifty
dollars in bis pocket. But in a few min
utes Uie tables were turned. One gavo
up the jjho it where he sat at the table
in liis chair, and tho other pot up, stop
pered off a few feet, and tumbled over
into eternity. Tho pood old lady recov
ered her money, and on oxamininp tho
