He was wealthy, accomplished, attractive in person, and counected, both on the father and mother's side, with some of the oldest, and, so-called ¢ bust families' in the State. These, liowever, were not, in her eyes, at- nactions sufficiently strong to induce ber to overlook qualities of the heart, Already in her contact with the world, had she been made to feel its hollowness and 1ts selfish cruelty. For something more than merg fashionable blandishments had™her heat began to yearn. She felt that a true and virtuous friend was a easure beyond all price. While this state of mind was in progress, Laura met Pereivat--=A-muival 1egard was soon developed, which merdused until it be- came a deep and sincere afiection. Li the meantime, 'Allison, confident from his position, became bolder i his advances, and, as a preliminary step, gave Mr. Woodville an wtimation of his views. The old merchant heard him gladly and yielded a full consent to the prosecution of lis suit. But perceiving what was in'the mind of the young man, Laura shrank from him and met all lus advances with a chilling reserve that was not for an instant to be misunderstood.

A few montis ater, and fully avowing her purpose, Laura left the house of her pa- rents, and became the wife.of Percival. A] step like this is never taken without snfler- ing, Sometimes it 1s wisely, but oltener nnwisely taken 3 but never without pyin.-- In this case the pain on both sides was se= vere, Mr. Woodville joved his daughter dearly, and she felt for her father a more than common attachment. But he was a proid and selfish man ; and the marriage of Laura not only disappointed and mortified him, but made him augry beyond all reason and self 'control. In the bitterness of his [eelings he vowed never to look upon nor forgive her. Tt was all in vain, thereiore, that his daughter sought a reconciliation § she met ouly a stern repulse. Years went by.and it remained the same. Many times during that long periol did Laura approach her old home ; but only to be repulsed. At Jast she was startled afflicted with the sad news of her en death. In the sudden anguish of her feel- ings, she hurried to her father's louse. As she stood with others, who had gathered around, gazing upon the lifeless form of her dead parent, she became aware that the living one had entered the room, and, to all appeardnce, of her | y was standing by her side. A tremor went throngh her frame. She felt faint, and ready tg drop to the floor. In this season of deep afiliction might he not forget the past? Hope sprang up within her.

Soon after an applieation for a divorce was laid before the legislature, with such proofs of ill-ticatment and shocking depravity of conduct, as procured an in- stant refgusgifron the marriage contract. By this time the proud, angry father was beginning 10 see that hie had, probably com- witted an error. An emotion of thankful- ness that his child was not the wife of Aili- son arose spontaneously ur his breast; but he did not permit it; to come into his de- liberate thoughts, nor take the form of an uttered gentiment. Seadily the change in his ortward circumstances progressed.-- He was growing old, and losing the ability to do busmess on an equality with the younger and more eager merchants around him, who were gradually diawing off his oldest and best customers.
