He placed it amid my curls of brown, Whispering softly "tis love's own crown, And the tiny rosebud, nestled there Like a crimson gleam of sunshine rare. Filling my soul with a gold-hued light, Faded an gone, is its glowing red, As all my hopes are broken and dead, I buried all in my heart away, One eve alone in the twilights gray, And vowed that ever again I'd look On tiny flow ors, or well worn book. Never again till this rosebud pale, That once grew fair in the grassy vale, Kissing my lips with its faded breath, Spoke of that love once silent as death.

There's that William Grant--but no, fool that I am, she would'nt wipe her shoes on him." Thus mused our hero, one evening, in the cosy sitting room of his own pleasant country seat, situated'in a romantic neigh- borhood, in Westernt Canada. He had that day taken a distant relative of his to the cars, and after seeing her snugly seated therein, looked around, for he half expected to see her coming back to box his ears, or something of the sort. 'This Minnie Belcour had been his especial tyrant for the last fortnight. So thinking she must make the most of the last day, before going back to her dusty, pent-up city home--where the skies did'nt seem half so blue nor stars so bright--she had become invigorated of late with the change, and taking a ball shé sauntered out in the windcw at uncleJohn's head, Of course, she must come in and sea if he was hurt, and offer her condolence: 0 that ended in a double catastrophe, for down goes the ink bottle, all over his eclegantly wrought slippers, which ' had been a present from a certain young lady, whose image he thought he could plainly discern in them. Growing exasperated at this state of things, he told Michael to put the grays to the carriage, and bring it to the door, in the quickest possible manner. "Tel thruth then, and isit anything that's happened, av ye plase, her honor!" exclaimed Michael. *¢ No, not ex----actly: I am anxious-- or Miss Belcour is anxious--to get home." Never did he drive his horses so fast-- as to the depot, nor come back with a hap- pier heart. He felt relieved of a greet burden, and that she had received atten- tions that did'nt belong to her. For three years past Clara Melville, a @ark-eyed beauty, had solely occupied his thougits, and dreams. He had never asked the important question, but why need he fear! "Her equal in every respect, and her supe- rior in some--he had won for himself dis- tinction, and a fame that sounded afar. -- So murmuring the words, at the com- mencement of our story, *' Yes, I'll go to- night," with confidence of success, and hope for his anchor, John Croft started for Mr. Melville's residence, two miles distant. Wending his way leisurely along and humming gayly to himself, before he was aware struck up: "The lady I love will soon be a bride, With a diadem on her brow; O why did she flatter my boyish pride, She's going to leave ms now." And then, half angry with himself, he wondered how he could be so stupid as to sing that. wo Cleopatra like, half reclining, on a soft- ly cushioned couch, in the magnificent rawing room, at the Elms, we find Clara Maellville, dazzlingly brilliant, in the paint- ed glory of her jewels and grandeur. Her regal form was attired in a maize colored silk, with black lace flounces, which well became the pretty brunette. Watch her closely, she is trying to solve some intri- cate problem. alf audibly she murmurs, I'll have my revenge. I don't like the sound William Grant, but then it's as od as John Croft, and he is a clever fel- ow after all, yes, I'll accept Grant's offer, and let him see. She did not notice Croft's approach, until he was announced, and then the ting was a cold, " good evening," she oS nothing more. Hope would have proved traitor, but *' charity is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil" He said to himself something has gone wrong, it will be all right in a little while: thinking seriously if he knew who had annoyed her he would give them a severe caning. "I. came, Clara, on important busi- ness," he said. . . She replied, *' Pa is not home. And then he told her, how he had done battle with his passion, but it had been too much for him, and he came to take his answer of life or death from her lips. -- That answer was his rejection. "You always mean what you say, then?" he said. "Yes," she replied, "and more than ever to-night--firmly, fully and decidedly, I say, never!" He then divined the reason to be that While he showed her the attentions that common civility demanded, there was would have reprimanded, others have gone on their knees and begged of her to revoke the dici<ion. Very pale he rose, and his reply was: 'God forgive you, and have mercy on me." 4 : Away he went, murmuring to himself, " poor Clara, poor Clara."

On meeting Mrs. White, the house-keeper, he asked how they dare make any change without his orders. Tea was waiting. He enter- ed the cheerful dining-room--everything | was scrupulously neat--a sick man might have eaten heartily, the aspect was so fanltless and inviting, Nettie Harrison, (a child of "ten; a | niece of Mr. Croft's, that his sister left to his care when dying,) came out at his entrance; saying, " I'd rather not have tea just now, "Mrs. White, until uncle is done--he looks so cross." '1 think you uncle is not well, dear, can't yon I while he is eating? you know he is so fone of music. Try and do your best now." The child looked up as if there was | | something more than common expected of | her, and then replied: " 0, I know now, { I'll play the piece uncle says always makes { him feel better and holier." You may judge of its effects, and what { it, was to him this time, for at the end of | the first verse he called out: ** what.on earth are you blowing the hdrn for! the | men have had théir lunch, and won't be | | up to tea till dark." The house-keeper was crossing the hall | for the purpose of. finding out what ailed | her master, when he accosted her thus: | "Can you tell me how it is that all my | calamities come on me at once! How did | you make this teal" | *" With especial care: T don't know why, [but I took more pains than common to- | night." On going to the table, the good | dame found out that he had put the mustard in his tea, instead of on the ham. | | | (The boy-god,Cupid, had truly and surely | done his work.) | Growing alarmed at this state of things, | she inquired if she had not better despatch | Michael for the doctor. *" Doctor!" half audibly he muttered out, | "she would'nt," he was going to say she | would'nt come; but half angry to think he had betrayed the secret, he exclaimed: *' Doctors! no!

He did not' murmuring toh red to be told--he went out self: "give mestrength for this duty." This was his first meeting with Clara. He found her having the recessaries of life, and everything wearing. the appeardnce of shabby gentility. "lam dying, John Croft: I had my revenge, but I- heaped coals on my own head. It was a poor companion, the foul- est whelp of sin. Do you forgive me?" '"1 forgave you, Clara, at the time My first and' last words to you we ' He that ruleth over his own spirit, is greater than he that taketh a city,' 1 think it made me better, 1 was too selfish." "Yes," said the woman, *' he his for- distant for three of the most skilful phy- sicians of tha place. Of course they came, said I was very dangerous; people hearing this were running night and day to sce how I was getting on; and between the excitement and the medicine they gave me it threw mo into a fever, which kept me confined to my room for one month.-- | Their charges, with other expenses at- tending it, (for she had to telegraph every | six hours, to let them know how I was getting on,) were only six hundred dollars, which I actually paid for a fit of sickness. Keep your doctors from me." eV hit was not the only one that was in consternation. Biddy came run- ning from the chen to the front door with the dish-cloth in her hand. " And | it's mesilf that thinks the masther is clane | beside himself --who ever heard a callin' | the singing box, (meaning the piano,) a | horu! an' puttin' musthard in tay! I | think, mebbees a little wormwood might do him a power av good. I was poorly a | | while back, an' it set me alli right again." | Biddy did'nt know he had been drinking of wormwood. and of gall. But Johu | Croft was not always to remain in this state. His better nature triumphed.-- | While his evil gengus tempted him, the | good angel dropped a tear. Being an | active, energetic man, he aroused himself. | Life had duties for him. He sought out | the poor and desolate, comforted and | shared with them the good things of this | life. Seated in lis study one evening, with nettie by his side, was John Croft.-- | Looking out of the window he espied a boy standing by the fence; and noticing | that the child was intently gazing at the | { flowers, he said: " Nettie, ring the bell, | | and send Biddy down to see what that child wants. But wait--no, I'll go my- self." One glance at those bright, black gyes, | told him who it was. Yes, it was her boy | --Clara's child. " Well, my lad, are you looking at the flowers!" : '" Please sir, 1 want you to give me a | rose. My ma cried for a rose last night." * Cried for a rose! who is your ma!" ¢ Mrs. Grant; and I'm Charlie Grant. I told ma last night, when I went€home from school, Mr. Croft had such pretty roses, and such nice things; and I asked her how it was we did'nt have them, and why God wasnt kind to us; and she cried. I suppose it was for a rose, don't you! so I thought I'd just stop to-night and ask you for one, for it makes me feel so bad to see my ma cry so much." Had not pride triumphed, the strong man might have gried too. A spectator might think the wound had healed, but ah! it" was green yet. "" Well, come in the garden and pick. as many flowers as you want, and whichever you like. best." That was a temptatioh. Eagefly he sought a rosebush, and after picking one, childlike he sought the gaudiest, brightest flowers, the peony claiming his especial admiration. And then with a happy heart he tripped home, prizing his treas- ure not less than the mise his bag of gold. " Bee, ma,I have brought you a rose to- night, and this big red rose for myself." ' Why, Charlie dear, where did you get them?" "I stopped at Mr. Croft's garden, and told him you cried for one last night, and asked for one to bring home to you." '" You may judge of the mother's hu- miliation. r. Croft had learned her history that day from a friend of his con- nected with the firm.in which her husband was engaged. After her clandestine mar- riage with Grant, he was unprincipled, as he took him to be, also a worthless, dissi- pated character.
