Through the in. ■tramentality of Ur.

In this she snoeMsful, as she had been bJjSffct this bran ah of indas- rsnrY&gyijrt -d rapidity. Mrs. Dumas was too weak and frail to give her much assistance, and with her spirit of self-sacrifice she delighted to deny herself every comfort to secure for her mother the delicacies she really needed. Days passed on rapid wing, and Estelle in her new sphere of usefulness, would have been contented, if, not happy,but for ono dark cloud that cast a shadow ovor her life. Clifford Graham, the being she had enshrined iu her heart, as the one who approached most nearly her idol of perfect manhood than any young man she had ever met, though he still visitod her, the lover-like spirit of devotion that had characterized his manner towards her before her changed eironmstances, was now different, and his faoe wore a restless, troubled expression, as though he was straggling with Romo inward sorrow, that ho was endeaving in vain to master. He was the son of fortune and favor, and the talents that under less auspicious circumstances might have developed into noble usefulness, had never been tried in the vicissitudes of life, and had grown in to an effeminate weakness for ease and lux ury. His excessive extravagance had al ready consumed a third of his property, and a wealthy marriage was liis only hope of relief from all present and future em barrassment. Kuowing this, and really loving Estelle with all the devotion of which his selfish nature was capable,there was a struggle going on in his heart be tween love and self-love. He did not have the manly courage to face the con sequences, give up ease, and battle brave ly with the world for her sake. When he first saw and began to woo the peerless Estelle, if the veil that shrouded the mys terious future could have been lifted but for a moment, giving him a glimpse of the little white cottage with its industri ous inmate robbed of all the outward adornments of wealth, sustaining herself and invalid mother by her own industry, he probably could have resisted the spell of her fascinations, but all unconscious, the resistless tide of fate drew him on to love, but too well, one with whom, in his love of indolence and luxury he had no desire to nnite, and now, like the moth, unable to keep away from the light that seorched vhilo it allured, he still contin ued his visits. Estelle, with the unwavering trust of an inexperienced girl, believed him to be noble, high-toned gentleman, incapable of seeking the hand of one only through high respect and devoted affection, and now that circumstances and his changed manner, revealed to her his keen disap pointment because of her penniless con dition, and the evident disgust he mani fested iu his short visits for tho hnmble though neat appearance of her little home, her soul revolted at tho thought that he had wooed hor through mercena ry motives. A feeling of proud disdain ruled out a love, that could not exist in her heart, for one devoid of that high- toned sensibility that elevates the charac ter of man far above an act of solfish meanness. Sho felt that she had been de ceived in tho character of one she believ ed to be purely honorable, and her spirit imbued with a feeling of disappoint ment and distrust that deepened the shade of gloom that, Hinco hor father's death, had enveloped her life. But she was proud and self-enduring, and with the res olution to receive no more under her roof one so unworthy, sho worked more per sistently thau ever, allowing herself no time for bitter reflection. Sometimes when the cares and responsibilities of the day were rendered peculiarly trying by the pressure from straightened circum stances, and she suffered from physical exhaustion, hope would die in her heart, and she would look forward with dread to the coming morrow, but sleep—“nature’s sweet restorer” — would refresh her to meet the exigencies of the day with re newed vigor. maiden to change the gloomy appearance of my home, by consenting to bring the snnlight of her presence to brighten and beautify it, making supremely happy the life of one who has loved her so truly and devotedly. ‘Dear Estelle’, said he (tak ing her hand and leading her to a rustic seat), ‘before yon ever knew me, I saw yon among a bevy of fair girls, with whom you were gaily conversing, and the glori ous light of your eyes, revealing the in ward pnrity of a beautiful charaoter, in stantly made me your slave. In a short time after yonr father died, the desire to see yon and serve yon, if possible, became paramount to every other feeling, and that visit commenced an acquaintance that re sulted in fettering me hopelessly in the chains of unohanging love. Since then you have beeu the star of my destiny, the bright meteoric light that has illumined my pathway to eminence .in my profes sion, makiug me re do all that may bocomo a in&u ‘bat for long a time I have struggled in darkness and gloom, the star of hope be ing dimmed by the fear that you loved another. Tell me, Estelle, that you do not, and that I may hope to yet call you mine.” “I do not now love another, but the state of my feelings towards you I oaunot fathom, and cannot, must not, promise to become your wife without the assurance of my own heart that I love yon, and yon love me with a certainty of no change, once loved another, and believed him good and true, but the reverse of fortune taught me the shallowness of his affection, that wavered when his love could not bring him wealth. My love for him died effec tually, and though only a few days since I received a letter from him fall of pas sionate protestations of affeotion, it awoke no answeriug chord in my heart. But the blight cast on my heart’s first great hope has made me skeptical, and though I en tertain for you a high respect and feeling ‘akin to love,’I cannot trust to its becom ing an enduring affection. Time and ab sence iu the tost to which I will subject it, and if in a year from to-day yon still love me, you can return and receive my an« swer.” “Oh, thanks for that much assurance of yonr love, and though banishment from your presence is death, I oan live on hope, and Jacob never worked with more zeal for his llachel than 1 will work for yon, my beautiful one." “The bouquet is finished, and twilight is deepening into darkness, and I fear mother will need me, so I will dismiss yon for one year—remember." “Yes, I remember too well, and though it is hard, I will obey you, trusting then to claim yon as my own ‘till death do ns part. ’ ” She aroso, gave him her hand, whioh he pressed fervently, and was gone, with the prohibition not to visit her again for the space of one year.

Love thee?—so well, so tenderly Thou’rt loved, udornod by me, Kamo, fortune, wealth, and liberty Woru worthless without thee.—Moore. Months passed with tho rapidity with whioh time ever flies with those who im prove the golden hours, and spring has again revisited the earth. The little cot tage, with its vine-wreathed porch, though not remarkable for architectural beauty, looks very neat and tasteful with its beds of well cultivated flowers in front, and smooth serpentine walks. Estelle, clad in a neat white dress, and dainty apron, is gathering flowers for a bouquet, and a lovely picture she pre sents, as the declining sun casts its reflec tion over her golden hair, lighting it up with a halo of glory that gives an expres sion of ethereal beauty to the pure, patient face. The last year, with its trials, has left its impress on her face. Tho buoy ant, hopeful, joyous expression has chang ed to a gentle, patient look, showing plain ly the recent struggles through which she has passed. Hor basket is full, and she has just stoopod to gather ono more choice white bud, when, on looking up, she en countered the admiring gaze of Mr. Has tings, who had come up unobserved. “Good evening, Miss Estelle. This is a sight worthy of an artist’s pencil—the basket teeming with its rich variety of choice blossoms, and the fair, little nymph, who is preparing to wreathe them into ar- tiatio shapes; I scarcely know which to ad mire most, the flowers or tho maiden, but think I shall award the prize to tho living, breathing, animated being, whose beanty appeals directly to the heart, taking it captive instantly.” “Yon are an adept in the art of flattery, and oertainly most have studied it as you have your musty, old law books, for you excel in both. To show iny appreciation of the compliment, I will make you a present of the bouqnet, when finished, to carry homo and immure in the poisonous atmosphere of your bachelor apartments, which I dare believe you have not this day opened for the pure atmosphere of this beautifnl spring day to pervade. I can imagine you sitting in state in one of those dark rooms, looking “grand, gloomy, The summer months have fled, and au tumn, with its guidon harvest of falling leaves has come. Tho fashionable oity of Augusta was preparing to begin its gay win ter festivities. Tho aristocratic Mrs. Gra ham and her two fashionable daughters were preparing to open the season with a large fall party, by which they hoped to secure an alliance between Clifford and the heiress and reigning belle, Miss Julia Harcourt. Clifford Graham had made many at tempts to see Estelle, and reinstate him- Holf in her affection, but she always re fused to see him, and failing in his efforts to get an interview, he wrote her a pas sionate appeal to marry him, saying that he could not live without her, and was willing to give up wealth, position, every thing for her suko. She replied kindly, but firmly, assuring him that she had ceased to love him, and would not marry him under any circumstances. Like tho delectable grapes, she appeared to him all the sweeter because she was unattainable, and failing in all his attemps to win her, he plunged rooklessly into dissipation. His mother becoming uneasy, exhorted him daily to many, hoping by that means to nrrost him in tho downward tide of dis sipation. At last, losing all hope of win ning Estelle, be consented; and the fair damsol being already selocted—for her wealth, not her intrinsic worth—all he had to do was to play the agreeable, which he understood to perfection, and win hor con** sent to marry him. Tho evening of the party came. The guests had all arrived, and were prome nading tbo brilliantly lighted rooms or silting in groups conversing. It was get ting late iu tho evening, and many won dered where Clifford Graham could bo, At last, looking restless and excited, he made his appearance, and going immedi ately to Miss Harcourt, offered his arm for a promenade, which was accepted, and leading her to a retired place, the destiny of that fair girl was dooided. Sho could not know that ho had wandered for hoars near the little, unpretentious home of an other, trying in vain to get one glimpse of the one face so dear, or perchance a word that would alter his determination in regard to herself, and at last, in desper ation, returned home and made her an of fer of his hand. Tho trembling “yes" that proceded from hor lips made her, all un conscious, the promised, unloved bride of ono who was then in despair, because be loved another. But throwing the mantle of silence over tboir future, we will leave them to work out their own sad destiny. The same day that decided the future of Clifford Graham and Julia Hereout, Es telle sat beside the bedside of her sick mother. It is tho same face, with its high, pure brow shaded by the golden hair, and yet not tho Rame, for that brow is corru gated with pain, and there is a restless, perturbed light in the eyes, as if some great mental agony is pressing the heart porting herself and invalid mother, the worthless character of hor lover, and now that mother that sho has gnardod so ten derly from every rough wind, lest it should destroy that precious health aud bring about this very contingency that sho so much dreaded. Hope died in her heart, and it arose in rebellion against the “Di vinity that shaped her destiny,’’trying her so severly in the ordoal of affliction. The blaokness of darkness seemed reigning over her, and she longed to bo sleeping tho peaceful, uuendiug sleep of death, be- sido her dear father, whore sho believed her mother would soon be. She wanted rest—rest for the poor, tired framo that ached so fearfully from tho physical strain to which it had been subjected the last few months—rest for the tortured mind that had endured such a multiplicity of sorrows. Oh, for Lethe’s fabled stream of forgetfulness, in which to bathe and be at rest. But now when despair held her in its vice-like grasp, the love and sympathy of a few siucero friends oome stealing o’er her memory like a holy thrill, touching and softening the heart, and bowing her head she prayed long and earnestly for strength to endure patiently her many tri als. Oh, the holy, soothing influence of prayer; “’tis the life-breath of the soul," softening into repentance tho sorrowing heart, and makiug it “gush forth in a plentitudo of hopo.’’ When Dr. Bardwell arrived, a short timo afterwards, she was calm and collected, the face bearing no evidenoo of the waves of despair that had Bwept so resistlessly over her, but a gentle, holy light shown in her large eyeB, giving an expression of ethereal beanty to the thin, pale faco. The doctor warmly grasped her hand, and scrutinizing her face, he said, “Look here, my dear girl, this will never do. I declare you look almost as ethereal as an angel, minus tho wings, and I am really afraid you will float off before my eyes, without my having the power to grasp you. You must trust yonr mother to tho oare of Minnie and my wife, who will be hero in a short time, aud allow yourself some rest, or you will soon bo beyond the power to nurse her at all." “Yes, do, dear Estelle," said Minnie, coming forward and plaoing an arm around her, “take some repose. You have not slept an hour since your mother was taken sick, three days since. I will not leave yon again until sho recovers, and now yon most let me take a sister’s place and share in the nursing, domestic work, and every thing yon do." “You have indeed been a sister to me, dear Minnie; and, oh, how muoh I prize yonr affection, no one can ever know, un less similarly situated. If you, Dootor, will only assure me that mother will re cover from this death-like trance, and be well once more, I could sleep swoetly on the blest assurance." “I do not know what change may take place in future, but, judging from tho present, I believe sho will; so take your self off to sleep, and if any change takes place for the worse, which I do not now anticipate, there will bo competent nurses to inform you." “Thanks for tho little hopo yon have given me, and now I will obey you, hav ing implicit faith in your ability as a phy sician, and Minnie as a nurse.’’ In the morning there was a change for the better in the sufferer, the marble-like paleness had left the thin face; tho light of reason had returned to tho eyes, and there was ground for hopo that she would recover. Mrs. Bardwell returned home, but Min nie stated her resolution to remain until Mrs. Dumas was sufficiently improved to be removed, and she intended taking her and Estelle homo with her. Sho overruled all Estell’s objections by assuring hor the change was necessary to the establishment of her mother’s health. For the next few days she made herself solo mistress of the little establishment, doing most of the work, nursing Mrs. Dumas, and foreing Estello to rest. She saw and dismissed most of the music scholars for two months rest, paid tho rent of the eottAgo that wus due, packed up a supply of clothiug, and made herself geuerully useful. Dootor Bardwell considered tho patient sufficiently recovered for reinovul in an other week, and highly commending Min nie for her spirit of determination, after closing up the house, assisted them all in to a close carriage, and they wore soon conveyed to Minnie’s house. sion, and. the love that at first was faint I THE REAL AMD THE APPARENT. grew into a strong affeotion. The two months of their stay at Mr. SSStf-ifthra* Csrleton’s passed rapidly, and returning again to their borne, Estelle returned to her duties. Her former scholars returned, end she continued giving them instruc tion in musio, reaping the reward of her industry in their warm affeotion and quick advancement in muoio. The day on whioh Albert Hostings is to receive his answer from Estelle has arriv ed. All day there is a restlessness in her manner that indicates suppressed exoite- uicnt, and many times has she received a smiling reproval from her mother, for doing her work all wrong. Tho day has passed, and night has thrown over the earth Its sombre mantle. Myriads of Btsrs are peeping forth from the blue canopy of heaven, while the moon, surrounded by embankments of fleecy olouds, is just making its appear- anoo in the east, shedding its psle ra diance over the oity. Estelle was sitting at the piano, trying, by playing solemn tunes, to qnell the tumultuous throbbings of her heart, when Mr. Hastings onme in and stood beside her. Bhe arose to re ceive him, while the rich blood mantled her cheek, making her appear radiantly beautiful to tho one who was to reoeive his doom from her lipb. “My probation is ended, and I have oome for my answer. Shall it be happi ness or misery, love or banishment? Spesk, I am awaiting to hear my fate.” He stood with folded arum, looking into hor down cost face. With a holy trusting love-light in her glorious eyes, she raised them to his faoe, and for answer placed her hand in his. He had won. the reward of unwavering constancy—devotion. In a few days, for he would submit to no delay, there was a quiet wedding, in the little cottage.

He did not seek her, or speak ono word of love, but tho happiness of again being with her was expressed iu his face and manner.

Lead pipes were coated internally with sulphide, according to the method of Dr. Schwarz, by the ac tion of a solution of sulphide of sodium, and were subjected at the same time with others not so treated, to the action of rain, snow, distilled, and ordinary Paris city water.
