Its o splendid night for a sail ?” . Tho young lady thus intcrrogate.l sat by one of the front windows of a large and’handsome country residence. Her feet rested on au otto man, and she was surveying the rosettes which mounted a pair of daintily'embroidered slip pers, with a. languid air and an absent, ball dis satisfied expression. At her brother’s ques- > tion, she turned aqt) looked out of the window, and the summer evening revealed its beauty 5.,,1 on y byes of Christine .fin-vyr- -<■■■■ The hon e was situated on an eminence, which commanded a view of the country for miles around. The moon had just come over the distant hills, and from her urn of gold was poured out that crystal river of light whose waves overflowed the landscape, and lent a grace and beauty to every object they touched. About a mile off, beyond the meadows, lay T the lake, its silver seam flashing between the green shores, and losing itself in a trend of the valley. The wind shook out sweet perfumes from the garden beneath; and -the stars overhead were bright. Such was the summer evening which Christine Jarvys beheld. Her eyes did not brighten much in loving re cognition of its beauty. There was a shadow still on the young and sweet face which site Turned to her brother. “I don’t feel much inclined for going on the water tills evening, Alfred,” she replied, and the listless tones suited the shadowy in her face. “ Who is to go besides you ?” “ Nobody except Frank Reynolds and Ben. Grant to manage the boat,” he. replied.— “ You’d better go with us, instead of staying here, and moping through the evening alone,” the young man added, as he threw his sight graceful limbs into the chair opposite his sister. “ 1 think I shall be able to stand it some how,” said the young lady, with a resigned ex pression of lone and face, which plainly indica ted that she regarded martyrdom as her pecu liar destiny, and intended to meet her fate with becoming fortitude. Alfred Jarvys leaned forward, rested one hand on his sister’s knee, and looked in her face. “ What’s gone wrong now, Christie, that you’re down in - the dumps like this ?’’ said he. “Come, don’t act so, but brighten up and tell a fellow wluit’s the matter.” Thus adjured, the young lady condescended to explain the causes which had produced her present gloomy views of human nature, and of •the world in general. “ The truth is, Alfred,” said she, “you’re a man and won’t understand auythiug about it; but my bonnet came home this afternoon, and its a perfect fright—a great bunch of poppies on the outside, and purj le mignonette scatter ed through the inside trimming—when pur ple is so unbecoming; it always made me look so hideous.” Allred Jnrvvs was a generous, good natured young man ; moreover, he loved his pretty sis ter dearly; so he put on a deeply sympathetic voice and face, much such a one as a father •would over a decapitated plaster of Paris dog, wbieh his child might hold up to him. “ Well,” said lie, “ its too bad about the bon net, Christie, that’s a fact.” * “Bat that isn’t all, Alfred,” sne continued. “My dress maker has just sent me word that she forgot the blue trimmings lor my dove colored silk, and so I shan’t have it ready to wear at Colonel Hamlin’s to-morrow evening.” “ The victim of a milliner and mantua ma ker!” said her brother. “On the whole, Chris tie, you are an amiable girl, but I don’t sup pose that the most exemplary of your sex could stand such a conjunction of trials and sufferings. A ruined bonnet and an unfinished dress? It’s too much. I stand appalled be fore such miseries!” A loud, hearty laugh concluded, as was most fitting, the mock sympathy of Alfred Jarvys’ speech; though, to tell the truth, he com menced it with a benevolent intention of en tering fully into his sister’s feelings a\td disap pointments. But his sense of the ludicrous was keen, and his relish of a joke intense, and the latter carried the day. Christine Jarvys drew bade; with au unusual display of dignity. “ 1 see bow it is, Alfred,” said she ; “ you’re making fun ot my troubles, after all ; I don’t want any more of your pretended sym pathy.” “ Well, now, it is really too bad,” said he. “ I’m just as sorry lor the little girl- as I can be,” he added, leaning forward once more and seizing her small wrists. But as though his sister’s cup of afflictions was not yet filled to the brim, a jet bracelet, exquisitely mounted with carved ivory, snapped under the, young man’s hand. Christine gave a laud shriek, as the beautiful, fragile toy fell to the lioor, scat tering on the carpet its fragments of daiuty workmanship. This was too much. Christine Jarvys fell back in her chair and burst into tears. Her brother saw this was no time tor joking, and with real concern on his lace, he put.his arm round his sister. “ I’m so sorry, Christie,” said he, “1 really wouldn’t have done it for all the world. Come now, kiss me and make it up, and you shall have anOiher bracelet, handsomer than this.” “ I don’t want another,” sobbed the petted girl. “ Uncle Robert gave me that on my last birthday, and I wouldn’t have had it broken for all the world. I know what your sympa thy is good lor. and that yon are lnugbiug at me all the time.” Look up, and see if I am,” said the youug man. “ Come, Christie,” he added, “ dou’t pout any more. Forget all about your troubles and go out and have a sail, and a song with jne ; it’s high time we were off.” £ r i-tU cckli) (Constitutionalist. ill ' ' ' e “I can’t with you, Alfred. Don’t for me ” she said, hugging the luxnry of her grief. 1 “ Well, then, good by; when! came back, i two I ours hence, I hope I shall find a better i d.sposed little sister,” said the yotmg man as , lie rose up, a little annoyed that his attempts to appease the girl met with no better success. 1 He kissed her forehead, for her cheeks were hidden in her hands, and then he went out. Christine Jarvys sat still in the moonlight, and listened for her brother’s steps. She heard them go swiftly down the long gravel walk and pause at the front gate, while he talked with the gardener. She look her hands from her eyes and looked out, and the silence and bennty of the night reproved her. The batter part of her nature rose up, and showed her that she had been unjust hud irritable. Despite all the faults of her education, lit had fine instinct, and a generous, exuberant nature. She sprang up and ran down stairs, and out into the gar den. Her brother had gone some distance down the road,but her voice reached him and brought him back. “Alfred,” said she, putting her arras about her neck, “I’m very sorry I was so cross to you just now, but I was so fretted, you know. Tisn’t any matter about the bracelet; and I’ve come out to kiss you good-by for two hours.” “Whatl are you not going with us ?” he said. “Run back and get your bonnet.” I “ I can’t, dear Alfred,” she replied. “ Mrs. Melvyn sent me a message that she would pass an hour with me tills evening, and I promised to be at home. But I hope you’ll have a nice sail.” She put up her rosy lips, and her brother kissed them warmly. “Good-bye, Christie,” said he. “Be a good girk, and I shall be back in a couple of hours.” And so they parted at she garden gate ; and the last chapter of Alfred and Christine Jar vys’ life togelher was closed without sign or warning. Its pages had been made up with the pleasant years of their childhood and youth, and all the lines had been written in light and gladness. But in after years those last words and that last kiss were to the heart of Chris tine Jarvys like golden blossoms covering the tendrils of memory, which took their deep root in that last hour of her brother’s life. Alfred and Christine Jarvys were orphans? They had, however, been adopted by their father’s brother and his wife. The gentleman was a wealthy banker, and as lie had no chil dren of liis own, he and his wife had lavished their agection on their nephew and neice. No wealth had been spared—no luxury it could purchase forgotten in the training of the young orphan boy and girl. Their uncle and aunt made earthly idols of the children who had. fallen to them, and they grew up with no idea of the sorrow, and trial, and discipline, which are the heritage of the sons and daught ers of men. They boy, with his dark, hand some face and fl shing eyes, in which spirit and mirth were forever at strife, was a perfect antithesis to Christine, whose fair countenance was the bequest of iier mother. Alfred had graduated with high honors at college. Christine, who was two years young er, was accomplished after her age and social standard; but though her life of ease and luxury had weakened and warped her heart and soul, still the good seed waited in the warm soil, which would quicken it into life and blossoming. Mr. and Mrs. Jarvys resided in town; but as they grew older their annual visits to watering places became irksome, and they at last pur chased a handsome country house in the lake district, and thither the family repaired every summer. — t It was a beautiful spot, locked up in rare shrubberies, with gardens and groves; and, as the master am’ mistress ware extremely hos pitable, their country home was frequently crowded with company, and so the brother and sister spoi led and dreamed away the summer in the midst of scenery that was a constant picture and poem to the head that could re ceive it. Mr. and Mrs. Jarvys had been suddenly sum moned from borne on some busiuess, at the time of which I write, and it changed that the brother and sister were left alone, as the guests they were expecting did not arrive until a week later. Bquaree. ’ One Week. Two Week. Three Weeks. 30ne Month. Two Mccth . Three Months. Four Months. Five Months. Biz Months. Christine Jarvys went slowly up to the house in the pale moonlight. The shadow had gone off from her face. She had quite forgotten her spoiled bonnet, her unfinished dress, her bro ken bracelet. She gathered a few sprays of mignonette, and some carnations—for flowers Hanked each side of the front walk—and then, .after a long pause-on the front steps, in which she did true and loving reverence to the night, she went into the parlor. A gentleman rose up from -wb* -hr formed her tb.'iVshT»"had i brought her a message from Mrs. Melvyn. The lady had been surprised that evening by the un expected arrival ol her parents, and would not be able to fulfill her engagement with Miss Jcrvys. The bright eyes of the young heiress searched the speaker’s face, as he delivered his message. It was a fine one, with a thin delicacy of out line, and a thoughtful, earnest expression, like the Hash and change of Alfred’s ; and the lips had a smile not frequent nor mirthful, but full of grave sweetness, which matched the eyes. “ Will yon take a seat?” said Christine, as the gentleman concluded his errand. “ Thank you. I fear I shall detain you,” said the young man, taking his lint, evidently sup posing tjje invitation merely conventional. “ Oh, no,” she said. “ I am quite alone, ns my brother has gone, out on the lake for an hour or two.” The gentleman looked in the girl’s face for a moment. It was a steady, searching gaze, yet by no mennS'iustructive. He was satisfied that her invitation was a sincere one, and re sumed liifs •seat;!’ * 1 “ You are a friend of Mrs. Melvyu’s, I con clude ?” said Christine. “ My older brother, who is dead, was a friend oi her husband’s,” he replied. “ I am, for the next six months, a tutor of her two sons.” Somehow, the better instincts of the flattered heiress recognized the true manliness of her guest in her brief, candid answer. There was no question that the tutor was a gentleman, in the truest meaning of the word ; a meaning that comprehends certain indigenous qualities of the heart and soul which no social grafting can confer. “ Well, 1 am a woman, you know,” said Christine, smiling the bright, frank smile which filled her face with light and sweetness, “and have my legacy of curiosity; but I will not ex ercise the prerogative of my sex further than ro aslt-vou one question more, What is vour name ?" * “ Charles Winthrop,” he replied. “It is known neither in camps nor councils, nor iu tho world of letters; it is famous nowhere; and in the wide world its best merit is, I believe, that it is precious to a very lew hearts.’ l “ You arc a-very strange man,” thought. Christine Jarvys. Her guest smiled quietly to himself. “Did he guess what I was thinking ?” wondered Christine. ~ - After this, she could not tell how they glided °ff into an animated conversation on various matters. Christine was glad enough to find a man who led her out of herself, and whose speech had some nerve and force in it; who never availed himself of an opportnnitv to turn a pretty compliment to herself, but who stimulated her own thoughts, who was full of suggestion mid appreciation ol meu-, books, and the world in general. At last, in a pause of the conversation, they heard a sudden grasp, and rush of the wind outside. “Dear me! what does it mean?” said Chris tine, as she and her guests rose and hurried to the window. It was it strange sight, the great cloud com ing up from the East., and shutting out the stars. The grace and beauty of the night sud denly vanished. • “Oh, how dreadful!” exclaimed Christine, and she shuddered, standing by the tutor of the young Melvyns. “ That depends upon the eyes with which we look at it,” said tiic young man, with his grave, sweet smile ; and it was evident that to his eyes the cloud had no dreadful voice or language. This thought came into Christine’s mind as she stood by the window. It was followed by another, which struck all the color from her cheeks. “ Oh! what will become of Alfred, if this high wind should overtake him !” “ Does be know how to manage a boat ?” asked Mr. Winthrop, with a good deal of inter est. “ Not in a storm,” she replied"; “ but Ben Grant, who has charge of the boat, is an old sailor; still I can’t help fceliug alarmed.” “ I thiuk there is no cause for alarm,” said he; “nu 3 then, there is no thought to calm our fears like the blessed one that God is over us in all danger.” Christine’s eyes, lifted to her guests, grew lull of a strange awe and wonder. Truly this man was unlike any she ever met. Theu the storm broke with a wild cry. The great branches rocked and wrenched under it. The thunder fairly shook the foundations of the great house, and Christine’s heart filled with fear for her brother. But the storm did Dot last long. Swift as the wind arose it fell. The black wlugs of the cloud dropped slowly away ; and there was a great calm. The st irs looked out again. “It is time Alfred was here,” said Christine. At that moment the front gate opened sharp ly, and a youth of about sixteen burst into the parlor. His hung in draggled locks about his paleface; his clothes were dripping, and he stammered out. iu an agony of fright and ter ror, “ The boat’s gone down ! The wind up set her. Won’t anybody go to their help ?” If you had Iteard poor Christine’s shriek then! Mr. Wintnrop caught her, or she would have fallen. But# ere was no time to be lost. He laid her on the'tofe ; and he did not know that his lips uttered the prayer which was in his heart, and that Christine heard it: “ Heaven have mercy upon yon!” Then th e youg man rushed out of the room ; but his hostess sprang up, and swift as a deer overtook him at the lront door. “ Oh, you'will save my brother !” she cried imploringly. “Heaven be witness that I will try!” said he; and he was gone, and the boy followed him. Mr. Winthrop was an excellent swimmer, and though the lake was some way off, he was only a few minntes reaching it, for his feet seemed scarcely to touch the ground on his way. He paused ortce duly, to ask the boy, who had followed, but could not keep up with him, a few necessary questions. He ascertained that he was the son of the boatman, Ben Grant. Isis father had been suddenly summoned from home that evening, and "the two young men had persuaded him to go out on the lake with the sail-boat, which he was not accustomed to manage alone. They would, however, have been safe enough, if it had not been for the sudden squall of wind which overtook them before they could reach the shore, and, in at tempting to turn the boat around, she upset. The boy swam to the shore, and hnrricd to Mr. Jarvys' for help, as that gentleman’s iiouse was nearest to the lake. He fancied botli the young men could keep their heads above water until assistance could be procured. And with prayer that it might "be so, Charles Winthrop rushed toward the lake at the point the boy in dicated. The moon sailed out from the frayed edges of the clouds, and looked down upon- the fretted waters. In the distance the young man thought he discerned a head sinking and rising; he plunged in, and was not Jong in reaching it; and with great difficulty conveyed the nearly drowned man to the shore. Ben Grant had just arrived there. The honest-hearted old man was full of alarm and grief at what had occurred, lie looked eagerly at the pale, unconcious face which Mr. Wiu llirop laid down on the sands. “ I’ts Mr. Reynolds,” said he. And where was Christine’s brother ? The small sail-boat was drifting ttf and fro on the lake. The two men swam out to it, after con signing Mr. Reynolds to the care of Grant’s son. By t’nis time all trace of that wild cloud was wiped off front the face of the skv. The stars and the moon looked down bright and calm on the pale face of the men. They searched for an hour in silence ; and then they found Mr. Jarvys. They drew him up tenderly and laid him in the boat; and as they thought of his sister at home, Doth the young man and the old one felt that they would gladly lay down their own lives if they could restore him. The young dead face had in it no trace of pain or struggle. No wonder the strong men -wept as they laid the body dowu in the boat. For nearly two hours, that seemed longer than the rest of her life, Christine had watched and waited. The servants all gone out, with the exception of her own maid, who tried to comfort her mistress as she sometimes sank down into stolid despair, and then rose up and wrung her hands, and wandered through the rooms, full’ of agony. At last her ear caught the sound of footsteps outside. They were bringing their burden up the walk. “ Carry him in by the side door, and f will go up and try and break the truth to her,’? said Mr. Winthrop, in a low voice, to the men ; but at that moment a slight figure ran down the steps, and rushed toward the lifeless form. The light of the moon fell brightly on the dead face. Christine staggered back. “ Is lie drowned?” she said, looking up in so pitiful away that the men could not speak; but she looked in each face, and read her answer there ; and then Christine lay on the ground as unconscious as her brother. Mr. Winthrop lifted the poor girl up and car ried her into the house. Jle bathed her tem ples, and assisted the frightened maid to restore her to consciousness. The youth in Christine’s veins at length triumphed, and she opened her eyes. The young man saw that she knew all. She was of! in a moment, and when he would have held her back, she sti nek aside his arm, rush ing out of the room, seemed led by some in stinct to the one where her brother lav. She knelt down by him, exclaiming : “Look up at me,; speak to me, darling ! You said you’d come back to me in an hour or two, wheifyou kissed me at the garden gate. Your d ter e-vn’t ’-V wttfcw*yswD she loved you better than her own lire. 1 can’t live without you, darling brother. I must have you back again. I must hear your voice call ing sweetly after me, ‘Christie ! Christie!’ as it used to do. I can’t believe it’s, silent forever ! Oil! Alfred, my heart will break—my heart will break ! Open your eyes anil smile at me once more.” She put down her warm cheek to the cold pale one, and shuddered as the chill went through her. When she looked up, Mr. Win throp was standing by her side. “Can’t you help me?” she said, as a lost frightened child that hiul sobbed itself into ex haustion would have spoken. “My child,” replied the young tutor, in a voice husky and broken, “it is God only who can Help yon now.” Christine’s broken heart went out, for the first time, with a new call and yearning after Ilil, whom in her happiness she had scarcely remembered, but who, she felt in the hour of her great sorrow, from which all human -aid shrank appalled and unavailing, eould alone give her helpj ind consolation. “God have pity on me!” she sobbed, and then the tears fell over her lace, and Mr. Win throp led her faint steps from the room. Boor Christine! « All that night he did not leave her; and oh, what sweet, and strong and blessed words lie said to her !—words of faith and trust, and submission; and for the first time Christine Jarvys’ eyes were opened, and she saw some thing of the great Eternal Love ; aud from the lost earthly love her heart went, as so many have done, to the heavenly. When the first gray Hikes of dawn were seen in the East, Christine Jarvys fell asleep, strengthened arid comforted. The next day a telegram brought back Mr. and Mrs. Jarvys to their broken household. There was no one to heboid the meeting of the uncle aud auut with tho nephew who had been the pride and the joy of their hearts, lie lav there so lifelike, with something of the old smile coming back to bis pale lips ; but, alas! for thy beauty laid low in the morning, Alfred Jarvys. * * * # * Two years Lave passed. It is once more the time of blossomiug roses, and Christine Jarvys came out of the front door of her country home, and again looked upon the fair land scape. Somehow those two years had changed Chris tine, but the chauge was that which comes not of years, but of character. Something more thoughtful, more spiritual, had come to the sweet taco. The memory of that night came back to Christine Jarvys as she gazed. “It was just such an evcuiug as this, and there in that white belt of moonlight by the gate you kissed me for the last time—oh, Alfred !” she murmured. “Miss Christine!” fell upon her ear, and she started, for the speaker had entered the grounds by the side gate, and come round to the front steps so lightly that she had not heard him. Her face flushed into glad surprise, as she gave the speaker her hand with the cordiality of a long friendship. “ I am glad to see you back once more, Miv Winfhrop.” “ Thank you,” said he. “ The three long months since I left seemed a long time to me, though they’ve been fully occupied with hard study. I’ve passed my examination, and have run down to meet-you and the Melvyn’s .con gratulations.” “ You would have had mine without the ask ing,” said Christine. “ That is more than I expected,” said the young man. “It is a night wonderful for beauty, Miss Christine,” he added. “ Wonderful for beauty!” 6be repeated ; but there was something in her sweet voice which made one think of the tolling of bells. Mr. Winthrop glanced at her face, and knew what night her memory associated with this one. “ I don’t know what I should have done with out you then,” said the young girl, drawing a little nearer to the gentleman. “ It was not I, Miss Christine, it was God who helped you,” said he. “ I never could have borne it otherwise,” she said. “I wonder if I needed that terfible les son— if without it my life would always have gone in the old channels of frivolity and self seeking, with no real aim, or purpose, or hope!” Looking on the girl as she spoke, a grave, sweet smile went over Charles Winthrop’s lace, but something flickered along the smile, and up into his eye, which Christine did not see. He drew nearer, and took, her haud in his. “ Christine,” said he—and his voice had lost a little of its steady poise—“ I must speak what I have to say in a few words. That sweet ideal of womanhood which my heart lias so Jong lingered after has been revealed to me. I do not believe that I should ever have found it if it had not been for that night two -fears ago. Christine,” he continued, “you are rich, and I am poor. I have nothing to ofler you but a love that has twined itself so closely around my life that it seems as though it would be d«>th to tear it away. Yet, it would not be, AUGUSTAi (Ga.) SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 18, 1867 because 1 trnst in One who will give me strength to receive yonr answer, whatever it may be. The Melvyns have told you all about me that there is to tell. A young lawyer strug gling up in life-can have little to offer a woman in your position, particularly when his dearest friends have all gone to sleep before him, and 1 he has nothing but bis own efforts, and his 1 faith in a higher Rower, to help him. Chris ! tine, you know the re; t. If your answer must be • No,’ do not let it come from your lips, only take the hand which now I hold away.” The litflc trembling hand lay still in his own, and Charles Winthrop had bis answer. Half an hour later, walking up and down in the clear moonlight, lie said to her, “ But, your uncle and aunt, Christine! Ton know what value they place on what I cannot give you— wealth and position.” The eyes of Christine Jarvys made answer with her lips, “ They will value my heart more than those when 1 tell them it is yours.” And so the sorrow and the joy of two June evenings were blended together in the heart of Christine Jarvys ; and ever afteward they lent a tender sacredness and significance to each other.
