And surely the fairest, the sweetest,

where the banks presented one muss of hlonm. and the hedges were white with hawthorn a green, shady, fragrant lane.

such as one only sees in Old England. There was the qunint, picturesque town

of Woodeaves lying in Ihe Leicestershire hills, half buried in green foliage, sur

rounded by thick woods, by rich green clover meadows, by golden cornfields, by fertile pasture lauds, flowery gardeus and

fruit-laden orchards, stretching out to tbe

purple hills as to an unknown land

There was a grand oli etiuren whose

spire pointed like a slender band to honv

en. It was covered with ivy, anil inclosed by tall oak trees, under whose shade the dead slept so qnietly and so well. The houses were pretty and stood embowered

in trees.

another picture even fairer still.

Behind n cluster of golden laburnums

and purple lilacs, there stood a picturesque, gray old house, brightened by scarlet creepers, by purple w isteria, and climb

ing woodbines: n house with large, nri'Ut

windows, framed in trailing dowers rmi

roses of white and red, with quaint old gable ends and deep, overhanging, eaves, where Pirds built their uests and sparrows chirped.

A house that stood in a most hewiuter-

ing garden not square anil trim and laid

out as the Dutch like to teebut full of

nooks and corners: full of trees, whose

roots were hidden in great masses of

miciionette and clove carnations: full of

old-fashioned flowers such as poets loved long years ago sweet peas and sweetwilliams, southernwood and pausies. lilies ajid roses. Kvery path had a charm of

nums drooped over it. anil tan macs sioou proudly near: and here the sunbeams fell as though they loved to linger, for they brightened the fair head of one of the fairest girls who ever looked up to the summer skies. She, Violante Temple, stood by the stile, with the laburnums drooping over her. Her lover bad pushed aside the boughs, and they made a frame for her lovely, piquant face. He was bonding over her, watching ihe piny of her beautiful lips, drinking in the ever-changing beauty of her eyes. She was a fair picture. No nrtist ever painted, no poet ever sung of a fairer. She could not have been more than seventeen. Her girlish, slender figure was full of grace, every movement full f harmony. It was of exquisite proportions, with slopins shoulders, aud a carriage full of easy

dignity. She embodied tbe very poetry of motion, so full "T unstudied elegance. No wor.der the sunbeams lingered on that face: it was peerless. It was not of the natrician type, it was not high bred.

but it was the face of a beautiful, simple, loving girl; it was full of thought aud tenderness; yet one could see thai she was all untrained: it was full of poetry, with delicious little dimples playing round the sweet lips dimples that, when she smiled, deepened into beauty that completely dazzled one. It was an uncommon type of face; the

complexion of wonderful fail ness-white, like n lily-loaf with the sun shiniiii; upon it, then tinged with n delicate row- ''"'or that seemed to come and go, to rise aud fade, with every thmnrht.

All day the lovely young face had worn n grave, serious expression, and the dark eyes had been shadowed with care. How could she.

told her so." "ATT day the sweet, Tlowcr-

liko face had been shadowed with these thoughts, and in tbe light, sunshiny afternoon she had gone to her favorite nook, the stile in the lane, to sit there and shape her thoughts into words, when a band, whose clasp she knew well, touched hers, and tbe voice she loved best said: "Viohinte. I have been looking everywhere for you. I have come to ask you if you meant what you said last night, and if you are willing to be my wife?" And before she kucw- what to reply he had raised her from the moss-covered stone on which she sat, and they were standing under the delicate, drooping, golden laburnums. "I meant what I said," she replied, .shyly; "but I can never he your wife." Then in good order as she remembered

them she made use of all those sensihle arguments which made him so impatient. "I am twenty-five years old," he said, smilingly. "I am my own master; I am rich mid prosperous, and I love only one woman in the world. Yet you tell me I cannot have her for my wife. If she is to be won by prayers and by love, she shall

be mine. Violante; for life will be all

blank to me without her." One by one he vanquished all her arguments, and at last, with her bands clasi ad in his, she bad promised to lie his wife to love him, (o be true to him, to care for him. and him alone, until she died. "What will my father say?" cried the girl suddenly. "He has not the faintest idea, Vivian, that you have spent these summer weeks in falling in love with me." "He will be very pleased, and will say I have spent my time well," was the smiling reply. "He will never believe I 4m old enough to be married," she cried, with a low,

delicious laugh, sweet as the chime of bells.

When Mr. Temple returned that even

ing to Oakside he was surprised at the

merry voices and happy faces awaiting Lim. His daughter his little Violante to be

married: His little girl, who bad made hU tea, mended bis socks and attended to his comforts, to becomp Lady Selwyn of Selwyn Castle, one of the grandest

ladies in the land!

"You have uo objection?" said Lord

Vivian to Mr. Temple; "you are willing to

cive Violante to me?

"I am simply bewildered," was the

truthful reply. "I do not know whether

to be angry and refuse yon to tell you

such nonsense must be forgotten or whether I ought to give you both my

blessing. I am bewildered, as I have uev cr been in life before."

"Take some time to consider, sir." replied the young lover: "I shall be at Woodeaves ten days longer." That night, while his daughter's golden head lay at rest, and her fair face smiled peacefully, Horace Teuiple sat up to think, aud consider what It would be best to do. He himself bad married young; he did not remember whether he had been very passionately in love with bis own wife

or not, but he bad made his wife very

end when tbey met the detachment of natives sent out by the rebels to waylay them and regain the papers. Ensign Temple, with a deep saber cut on his brow, with innumerable wounds on his chest, his neck and arms, managed to escape. He rode into the camp, and lived long enough to redeem his promise to plncc in the bands of (Jen. Vinny the dispatches intrusted to him. none the less precious that they were bathed in his blood. It was night when he arrived, nrd the general was surrounded iiy bis staff. They were grim old warriors, most of them; but to this day they tell with trembling lips of the blight haired boy who rode so suddenly into the camp, streaming with blood, with death in his brave young face. They tell bow he placed ihe paf.rs in the general's baud, and fell at his feet, saying with the smile of a child: "You will tell them at home that I did my duty." There was a stir among them. Dark,

bronzed faces grew pule and quivered us

they raised the boy and carried him away to die.

But there was one happiness in store for him. News reached Mnjor Threlton that the young ensign and his little troop bad been waylaid. Captain Selwyn, with a small body of men. was sent after bim at once, and the captain was just in iime to see the young hero die. They had laid him under the shade of a largo palm tree. The evening sun had set. and as though in mercy to him, a cool, calm breeze bad risen. "Ah. captain!" said the boy; "I longed

to see your face and touch your hand once more. You huve always been my hero, and I have loved you to well. You will

go bock to England some day; promise

the fair young brow.

"Heaven bless him," he said with rever

like him."

With his own hands he cut off two of

tbe colden curls, resolving to keep them

until he returned home, and then to take one to his sister, and one to the father of

the young hero whom they wore never

more to see.

Captain Vivian Selwyn redeemed his

promise. That was hew; he came to meet

Violante. He lingered nn at Woodeaves,

trying all in his power to win the love of

that pure young heart: lie succeeded at

last; the time came wnen ne could Keep

his secret no longer, and one evening,

when Sir. Temple had been obliged to re

turn to his ollice for papers, and the two were alone, he surprised her into confess-

inc that she, too, loved him.

"Against my better judgment." she said with a saucy, bewitching smile, "but 1

cannot help it."

After two days of deep thought and con

sideration, Horace Temple, bewildered as

ever, gave bis consent; and the marriage

of Lord Vivian Selwyn and Violante was

arranged to take place in September. (To lie continued. i

Whi ther it be pence on the terms fixed

by the I'niicd Stales or war m which Spain's destruction is certain must be decided bv the Madrid Government. A prop

osition lhat was practically an ultimatum

was made by the American peace eoninils-

ion at 1'aris at Monday's joint session.

The terms of the proposition are summar

ized ns follows:

1. The Spanish proposal to arbitrate the miauiug of the third article of the peace protocol is rejected. 2. The 1'nited States demands

(he cession of the entire Philippine archipelago, end offers Spain an indemnity of $2O.(Hi().it0tl for her pacific expenditures ill the islands. .". The 1'nited States declares n policy of "open door" in the Philippines to the world's commerce, and offers Spain for a Rerie.s of years ihe .same trading terms in the islands ns shall be enjoyed by American ships. 4. The I'liUed States propose, on the terms heretofore named, a mutual relinquishment of all public and private claims between Spain and the 1'nited States arising since the beginning of the Cuban insurrection. 5. The 1'nited States insists that - tin. rtlu.w.- l..wrt--l1-ltrr IhrfX'- - line Islands lie considered as settled by the treaty of 1880. Nothina to Arbitrate. The American commissioners bold that

(ho meaning of the pence protocol is plain and contains nothing calling for arbitration. An arbitration would also lie a

virtual surrender of the functions of the

peace commission, aud is, therefore, abso

lutely rejected.

The American commissioners call atten

tion to the fact that no cash indemnity for the expenses of the war has been asked by the United States. The Spaniards

having neglected the former proposal of the United States for the cession of the

Philippines, the Amer.ci.ns now present

proposals embodying all concessions which, for the sake of peace, the United States is willing to otier, deeming it essential that: the negotiations, already f'rently

protracted, should be brought to an. early and definite conclusion.

The Government f the United States

refuses to modify tl. proposal heretofore made for the cession of fhe entire archipelago of the Philippines: but tbe Ameri

can commissioners are authorized to offer

to Spain, in case thi cession should lie amicably agreed to, the sum of $20,000,000, to he paid in accordance with the

terms to be fixed in the treaty of pence.

The mutual relinquishment of all public

and private claims between Spain aud the United States since the beginning of the Cuban insurrection is intended to imply

that each Government will settle the

claims of its own citizens against the oth-, er country, and includes the rc-cstablish-

nient of the treaties which have lapsed by war. The proposal to renounce all claims for indemnity includes, of course, eom-

pensation for the destruction of the

Maine.
