ant past. It is evident that tho rose has grown wild, for it is rioting over tho premises. Cecilo, that '.ancient dame' of yours, was the youngest of Mr. Jacob's family. Just at tho close of tho war she was in tho bloom of youth and a splendid typo of Creole beauty—tall and lithe, and tlie grace of every motion gave 0110 an undefined impression of tho indolence and voluptuousness of her nature. Sho was a brunette with a rich color, and her dark eyes wero as molting as thoso of a gazelle. "Tho girl was not considered intelligent, and her education hail been sadly neglected but there was in hor manners a nativo refinement which gave hor entrance in the best society. I remember so well her appearance at a party given in honor of a company of recruits 011 the eye of their departure for northern Louisiana. Ball costumes in thoso days were not elaborate affairs, nor luid fashion much voic6 in our little community. k.stelle woro a satin robo somowhat antiquated in stylo, but it fitted her nicely and brought into strong relief the freslmess of hor beauty. "You may imagine the disastrous efTects of such a combination of loveliness on tho rest of us maidens who liod been loss favored by nature. That evening Cecilo received tlie honiago of many a liandsomo aud gallant cavalier. Among tho number was Capt. Lymon, a Texan, whoso regiment had done somo servico in tho state. Tlie retison of this ofiicer's return to tho parish was a matter of conjecture. Ho lingered, however, under

idausible pretext, sending most of his timo flirting with tho girls. "But after his acquaintance with Cecilo Uo changed his conduct and devoted himself exclusively to hor. Ho was a man of education aud apparently of high standing in life. Cecilo was elated and accepted liis attentions with unfeigned satisfaction. Sho renounced hor life of frivolity and wrapped herself in a mantle of reserve at tho approach of her former admirers. You must know that somo time previous to this slio had either engaged herself or given great encouragement to a cousin of hers, a Creole youth, also an ofHoer in tho army. "Victor was dark and of small stature, but ho peissessed a sort of wild beauty which fascinated most people. Tliero was a glint in his black eyes which reminded ono of tho leaping light in Algol. The boy was madly in love with hi* beautiful cousin, and there had been a time when she had given liim every reason to txjievo tliat his affection was roturnod. But since her late infatuation she luul grown cold, and would turn from him her luminous eyes each time he sought an explanation of tho change which had overtaken her. He was determined not to relinquish his prize without a struggle: hence there were several meetings at tho jiaternai homo, where tlie antagonistic propensities of the suitors were exhibited in iiersona! remarks. Capt. Lymon's assumption of haughtiness in tho presence of his rival irritated Victor beyond endurance and aroused the demon of jealousy in his breast. "Ono eveuing, as it often occurred, Cecilo and her two lovers wero iacing slowly up and down the giirden walk. She held in her hand a bunch of violets which her cousin had gathered for her a few moments lxjfore. Several times sho unconsciously raised it to hor rod lips, burying them in tho odorous mass. 'Prav, Miss Cecilo,' said tho captain, 'will you givn me thoso flowers pressed so warmly to your lips?" "Cecile looked inquiringly into her cousin's face. 'Jo te defends,' Victor muttered in a

"The girl liad been spoiled, and, unaccustomed to le dictated to, tliat voice of authority drove her to a hasty decision. Without, a moment's hesitation sho turned to Capt. LJTUOU and laid tho flowers in his hand. Victor's eyes flashed with indignation at this unmerited blow to his manly prido. His cousin's cruelty clove to his heart as with a knife. Ho gave her a scornful look, turned upon liis lieels and deported. A week after this oocurred Capt Lymon was recalled to his post of duty. Thus Cecilo found herself suddenly bereft of both hor lovers. "This circumstance was not calculated to enliven her situation. Sho now eschewed the gsyetiea of life, and relinquished further association with hor old acquaintances. "Tho country was then full of young girls, whoso exuberance of spirits could not be checked even by the sad tidings which reached them from tho closing scenes of war. Wo had little to do except to amnse ourselves, and we resorted to overy possible means of satisfying our natural propensities for pleasure. We took grunt delight in horseback rides. There was alack of oavuliera, but wo did not aim, and rode out in guy jiarties, half a do7,cii in a 'squad,' as we called it. Cecilo had generally accompanied us in thoso iaunts, either along tho river or down Grosse Tete lone to tho woods where the jmngent odors of wild plants and flowers filled our senses with exhilarating delight. "Boforo tho complications of her lovo affairs C« ilo luul leon the most interested ono in our riding parties, for sho was a graceful rider and fond of displaying her skill. But after the' incident I havo just related shoduclined with persistence every' imitation to join us until wo lost the habit of ivdling uixm her when passing her gate. "On our return homo I will show you a clump of trees now battered and gnarled wlt.li ago. They stand 011 the river bank in front of Mr. Jacob's dwelling. At the tiuio alluded to they wero young and vigorous, luul so distributed that their limbs Interlaced and formed a magnificent bower. It was a most inviting spot. Beneath this canopy of leaves Mr. Jacob had placed a number of comfortable seats, where ho and his guests often enjoyed siesta on warm summer days. The jieople of tho neighborhood ol'ten stopped here, either for a rest or for tlio enjoyment of tho cool breeze which comes from the river. Ono evening, on our return from a long and dusty ride, we passed the place at about sunset. The sight of the cool retreat reminded 1110 of a spring which

Dabbled from the bank a few feet below it. I suggested tho idea of dismounting in order to quench our thirst, and I was the first to leap from my pony and penetrate the shadowy recess. Guess my surprise wlujn in the gathering twilight I perceived our deserted Cecilo. 'She stood in tho sulxlued light like a Calypso ready to resent an intrusion witliin the sacred precinct of her grotto. 'Why. Cecilo,' I exclaimed, 'I took you for a ghost!' "For answer sho burst into a little irritable laugh—'Thanks for your compliment.' 'I know she was not in amiable mood, but went up to her and kissed her lightly on tho cheek. She did not cliange her attitude nor tmlix'k her arms from Ijehind her. Her airs provoked me, and I walked to tho bank, saying, '1 hope there is no law prohibiting people from quaffing a draught at tho spring?" "At that moment I heard the chatter of our little eavalcado. 'Oh, gr.'iciotis, hero's (Jecile!' 'We thought you were dead mid buried." 'What have*you leen doing with yourself, Ceoile?' 'Turning nun, I supjxtsc, to expiate for tlie sin of breaking hearts.' 'Wliat havo you done with your loversV "Where is jioor Cousin Victor." 'And the gallant captain?" Tlieso wero somo of the questions which fell upon her like a hail storm. "I pitied the girl and rushed to her rescue. 'Girls.' I cried, at the same time struggling up tho rugged steps in the embankment, 'come on—the water is deliciously oool.' "But my invitation was unheeded: Cecile stoxl in the milst of her tormentors, more beautiful than I hud ever seen her bofore. Notwitlistanding her increaming auger there was iu her eyes an expression which aroused my compassion. It was evident tliat the girl liad suffered, and that she was anxious to hide tlie fact from us. Her struggles to control her emotions were vain tlie color fled from lier cheeks and her lips quivered. The conduct of her friends was rude and ungenerous, and sho considered herself affronted. 'How does that concern you? I must say I consider yon most unmannerly,' wero tlio words which fell upon us like a clap of thunder. Our astonislunent knew no bounds, and without further ceremony wo luistenod from tlie scene where our prido had mot so shocking a blow. "This littlo incident happened about a month after Cecile'a quarrel with her consin Victor. No ono had reoeived tidings of him since liis disapiiearance. "Wo afterward heard that a few weeks after Capt. Lymon's dejuirture Cecile had been tlie recipient of a document which proved beyond doubt the duplicity of tlie man for whoso sake sho

IUKI

forfeited tlie

love of a worthy man. Imagine her humiliation, her vain regrets and the remorse which must have gnawed at her heart like a worm. Tho evening we surprised her under the trees wo were ignorant of this imixirtant state of -affairs. Her incivility toward us proved that she misconstrued our motives in stopping: the supposed wo had heard of her troubles, and to tease her wo liad purposely Intruded upon her. "This was tho end of our association with her. The war ia now ended and I returned to the convent to complete my education. Ono by one the soldierCame straggling home. Many were missing, but they were all accounted for some hail fallen in liattle and others had succumbed to the hardship of war. But Victor, tlie handsome Creole, never more gladdened with his presence the hearts of his frionils. "At first Cecile awaited his return with a patience pitiful to see, but when month after month went by aud 110 tidings came of him, sho gave vent to her despair in violent ami uncontrollable grief. To this day uo ono hae ascertained his fate. Somo bolieved that tlio unfortunate youth was killed in an encounter with Capt. Lymon. It is oertain tliat I10 never rejoined his ooinpany after lie left tlie parish. "And Cecile, during all tlieso years, has been brooding over her secret sorrow. Sho is now a wreck, on tlie !"orders of insanity. They tell me that there is iu her fuoe a wistful, longing look wliich appeals to tho heart Sometimes it is wild and despairing and oversluulows lier once lienutiftil eyes. She lias lost all interest iu life, and pusses her time wandering over the premises, or else she sits where you havo often seen her. upiareutly watching for somebody. Mr. Jacob, ever kind and faithful, has been lier guardian. "Soon after the close of tlie war he withdrew from tlio society of liis friends and consecrated his life to the service of his beloved Cecile, onoe tho prido of his heart."

O11 our homeward ride we paasod tlie old houtso lu tho dusk of evening. "Look!" exclaimed my friend, suddenly chocking tlio horse. "There is Mr. Jacob now, walking toward tlie luuiks with his daughter."

I scanned tlio ooujilo with curiosity. Tho old :mm was barefooted, and walked in a stooping ix«ture like ono carrying a heavy burden. His shabby clothes hung loosely alxnt him, and tho brim of his old liat partially conc-e-aled his long straggling locks.

Just as wo {Hissed them Cecile turned her face in our direction and silently beckoned to her father.

A New Wonder.

Wo live in an ape ot wonders, and one of the greatest has reached Crawfonlsville and we shall attempt to describeit.

Since 1771 the Kncyelopa'dia Uritnnnicu has been the crowning work in Knglish literature. Its history utul growth are a part of the history of the growth and diffusion of knowledge. As cnliehtemnent and culture havo increased, this monumental curriculum of learning has frown and kept pace with them. A word as to its rowth will be interesting.

The success of the original was such that theeditors and publishers were awakened to a sense of the true importance of the task tlie.v had taken in hand and to the necessity forn trio re comprehensive scheme than at iirst adopted and its reception in spired them to soon set about its enlargement and revision. Since then it has seen the standard and as the literary world demanded from time to tune has run through eight successive editions and supplement af follows:

First edition, 3 vols., published 1771. Second edition, 10 vols., 1778-17*3.

Third edition, IS vols.. 17SS-17'J7.'. S '1 Supplement, 2 vols., 1SS01. Fourth edition, 20 vols., 1S0MM0. Fifth edition, 20 vols., completed JP17, with a supplement of 7 vols.. 1SKV

ISM.

Sixth oditiou, 20 vols., 1823 Seventh edition, 21 vols.. 1830-1M2. Eighth edition, 21 vols., 1S58-1SH1. The reader will see that since this last revision great scientific discoveries have been made, much history has been written unknown territory has been explored, and countless mighty events have been written by Time. To keep pace with this progress we now have the Ninth Edition, of Twentyfour volumes, averaging 850 pages each 20,000 pages, iW.OOO subjects! The following comparison of amountsof tvpe renuired and prices of other great works, is by Prof. A. P. Lyon, of New York, in the fcieetrotype Journal:

The Bible contains 3,500,000ems. Webster's Die., 20.000,000 ems Tat 112. Chamber's Cyc., 4s.000,000 ems [at .50. •Johnson's C.vc., SH.OOO.OOO ems., at $4S. Appleton's Cyc., ('.0,000,(100 ems., at *sl. Encyclopa'dm Bntannica,140,fW,(KKi ems at *120 to *1115.

The completion of the Ninth Kdition has enabled the public to measure this inagnif cent work and compare it with other cy clopiedias. The result has been to establis beyond question its unqualified superiority. It is a giant wnere others are pigmies. It stands the noblest work in all literature the one only adequate representative of the advanced thought and scholarship of the world. In the amouut of brain-work furnished, it immeasurably 'runscends all competition. It is the only Encyclopaedia in which each principal subject is treated by an acknowledged authority upon that subject. No other has spent one-third as much monry on literary labor, as the Britannica. Not one lias given $10,OiK) for a single article, orSi'iOO a page for written matter, nsithas. No other can show a list of pricipal contributors either so eminent in their departments of scholar ship, so varied in rationality aud profession or so numerous. The full list of contributorsnumber 1,1-15 persons, and include the most eminent literary and scientific names of Europe and America.

The English Kdition of the work is sold in this country at &S.00 per vol., and the American Edition at fS.OO per vol., in cloth binding making the cost of the set of 24 vols, respectively ?H'2 and ?120.

While the Britannica is the acknowledged standard, incomparably the best and most desirable Enelopiedia in existence, its high cost has placed it out of thoroachch ot most people. This bar to its popular use has now been happily removed.

By a new process of etching upon zinc, giving a clearer and harder surface than even an electrotype plate, .the art of reproduction has at length been brought te a higher perfection. The now Popular Edition of the Britannica is a perfect and exact reproduction of the original work page for page, by this new process, which, tor clearness and beauty of print, leaves nothing to be desired. And it is this which is new offered to our people, at an astoundin?ly low lirice, by the enterprise of Mr. O. M. Lacey. Do not think his is in way a cheap, old and unsalable book, on ilimsy straw or "unlandried bass wood" paper, in paper covers, and with a glued back. Wc nave seen it, and it is made better than the average book in yonr library! It is.a handsome, large, new volume in genuine English cloth, heavy oakum—not strawboards, double-hinged, flexible back and on line super-sized and super-cnlondeied book paper, with colored maps, plates, illustrations, Index, marginal references, (the only American reproduction having thein) aud— ust call and examine it for yourself, at the store of O. M. J,acey. llo has acquired tho exclusive right to handle it in Montgomery county, and by the torms of their contract with the publisher, it vr il never be sold here through agents.

Truly ma.v we say with tho poet— "We are living, we are dwelling In a grand and awful time. In an age, on ages, telling!

To be living in sublime!" The thought that this grand work, which is 111 itscl 11 Library of Human Knowledge, has at last, by the benelicont genius of American scicntili invention been placed within the reach of the |lmmblcst aud poorest of our favored laud, should awaken in us thankfulness that we live in America.
