It w.s the quainteit old honte, with rretn blind nnd gray gabion, thi wild vine loiliDir up Um side, with thr ncarU't hr rnt-u rtnh ioglik red turn among thu dark green loaves. Then there were (wo chesnut trees that stood all summer before the front door, like tall frinrs with green stoles folded over their bo lomi; and on etthor side of the gravel tin i'irt lutlls mid dtilludil't m -il'- i ding of gold and purple down to the , tlowickat. O. It waa a happy homer ru littlo i to me! J sit here and eloae ray eyes, ' and looking down into the far land of I my memory, I see the quaint gables. the green treta, and the golden rulHing, shining clear through the light and the darkness of the years that lie between it and the present "Just down thf road" 1 could tew it from my chamber window was a red frame-house, with the moss of half a entury growing thick on its sloping roof. The building waa considerably dilapidated; still, it had a rosy, oldfashioned look of a summer s morning, when the sunshine used to gild the ' eares, and plate with gold the wcath-'cr-stained front-door. Mrs. Willard and Harry lived in the red house: he was her only sou, and she was a widow They were very poor1 all the village knew this; but Mrs. Willard managed to obtain a somewhat precarious livelihood for herself and child by taking in plain sewincr; and as she sometimes tilted Aun' Mary's dresses and mine, and ' , ' . Harry always came for and returned ! ..... I these, I became acauainted with him Henry Willard waA a strange boy. He did not laugh and play as other boys of his age do. He waa only two I years older than I; and there was an air of mingled pride and timidity in ' his manner, a shadow on hia young ! lace, and a melancholy earnestness in ' his large dark eyes, which arrested ' my attention, and awakened my sym1 pathy the first time that I saw him. IWc were both naturally shy, and so Harry came and went many times with the little bundles; and I sat in a chair by Aunt Mary's side, getting surreptitious glances of the pale, mournful face, and wondering ureatlv why it was not like that of other bovs. before the least overturns for ae- , - T i quaintance was made on either ridt Jtut Aunt Mary, whose heart seemed almost overflowing with kinduess and sympathy for every human being, had taken a great fancy to I to Harry Willard; and one day just .is lie wns If.rtUiU'. ifter h;i in' liisftiunrnit I kit enmmisstriti nn ivViirh hiu V Sal COB st lVi VIIV v venae? a ivwtvis vie Mivss lliw mnttioF Ii i.! ,.nr lilm hKa kinifli idv IMWSalvl t a a ft a v. as a wa s aaset asw vstsaiavstf a Liier tiau seni uiuj, sue auuuemy I tome, "Alice, you bad better go with' Harry, and make a boquet Mrs. Willard. Don't you like ..tid lout for Mrs. Willard. Uon't y flowers, Harry?" "Yes, ma'am, vnry much, thank you," replied the boy, and then his , eyes were full of a strange, beautiful light, as he placed them full on Aunt Mary. So we wont into the garden togeth- ; er, snd there we talked for the first time while I gathered mignonnctte ' and roses, and Harry held the flowers 1 when I tied the blue ribbon uround I the stems. After wm our reserve , wore gradually away, und Harry be tine i frequent, aiv.i .1 wel-orue visitor at our house. We wuuld wit ' for bourn under the great restless aa a 1 shadow of the chednul trees, while he would talk to me iu his utrange dreamy way of the -tan, that becmed to him like golden stair? on which lav angels came down to earth; of the strange music his heart could hear in the wind music that rote in the spring-time iulo a mighty jubilee; and it Sowed over the fields, and they grew green; and the violets opened their eyes, and made purple seams in the grass. Iu the tiummcr, Harry said this music grew jnto a gloriou psalm, filling the forest und the woods and when the autumn came, it .welled into a grand stream, that went rolling up the hilh, and alung the valleys: and theie was nothing like it but the moan of the great organ, floating thro' the aisles of the village church when the choir sang the doxology. And Harry's brown eye would grow so large, aud kindle with such a strange light 'i he talked of these things! and then he would stop suddenly, and the old shadow and sadness would i tnne into ihetn, und he would U 11 me how he loved to read books, and how there was a stnnge hungry feeling at his heart for knowledge; and how the hungei llnre, sometimes grew into a lire Sich he could no. denlhr and lie wtiuld say, in a tone of such touohing. mournful pathos, that it always brougbt the tears into my eyes to hear him "But Alice, you see, we are very pour, nnd I cannot go tu school; aad nobody oaros for me but in tin in i1" n-l then I WOUld draw

I was trying to do viae some method by which I could send Hurry Willard to school; but thin is not so easy as I sea, by thr sparkling f tlio.- blue eyes, that jou think it it. Uatry Willard'g mother was not always poor, aa ahu is now; and she is very proud, too; and unless 1 could represent his going in the light of a fuvor done to me. I do not think I could obtain her consent to (his matter." a Oa . a a a ' ut ) an of nome way; 1 low ou tan, Aunt Mary; Harry iuiib it, go: i auawerea; lor i nad the most unboundeil faith in Aunt Mary's diplomatic resources. "Well, Ally, I had juxt thought of a plan when you spoke to mo, which, upon reflection, appears the best calculated of any to succeed. I hare felt for some timo that my darling ought to commence some higher studies than he is now learning of me; but it is a long way to the vi II ago school; and ' "And you intend Harry should go too, to take care of mel 0, l!m so glad, Aunt Mary!" I interrupted, -pnnging up and clapping my hands R,nc!lunlarv ö'H"on of my exc,iea Aunt Mary's smile verified my re marks; and at sunset, on that very day, she went down to the red house, and had a long talk with Mrs. Willard. The star was just coming over the great hill at the side of our home, a single golden drop of that sea of blue when Aunt Mary returned, and informed me that her mission had been a wcful one, and that Harry and I iL. ..111. .-I I . 1 were to enter the village school on the ensuing week. O, that Monday mornings's sunlight shone not on two happier hearts than Harry's and mine, when we shut the white wicket of our cottage home, and, hand in hand, took the road leading to the village school, pausing every few rod" to send a smile or a kiss to Aunt Mary, who stood in the front door, watching us with her loviug eyes until we are out of sight. Very happy we were, for the next six months: very tender and watchful was Harry's care for me; and very won derful waa tl tarry s progress in bis studies, distancing all his classmates, , ana greatly surprising the teacher, j"""5 the light beamed more brightly, n(1 t,ic hadow went more and more from his face, which he would turn to mr Kometimrs, and s;ty, in his 3uddtn, abrupt manner, "Oh, Ally, I'm very happy now!" But, at the expiration of six month.-, there came the darkness of the shadow of death over all this brightness , It was evening: Aun' Mary sat in v ' her Old seat by the window, and 1 - - , - - ..... v. -, , stood by her side, watching the round moon aa she came slowly up the blue bridge, on either side of which lay the silver-looped and gray fringed clouds. when Harry Willard burst into the room; and every muscle of his white face seemed working with terrible suf - lenng, as ne .sprang to tutu Mary s side, saying wildly, "O, please go to her quick, for ray mother is dying!" With a half-sunprcised exclamation Aunt Mary seized a shawl, and hurried after Harry who had rushed out of the bouse, 1 war. all alotn , with the white moon looking in at the window, und plating with silver the backs ot the chairs, and iu the hall darkness a great fear came over me. I could not endure the stillness and the ghostly moonlight: so I ra ized my bound, and followed Aunt Mary as fast a; my trembling limbs would permit. I shall nevei cease to remember the scene which presented itself as we entered the red house. Mrs. Willard was sitting in a chair in one corner of the long, )IJ fashioned parlor, her head resting on Aunt Mary's bosom, who was striving to wipe away the current of blood which issued from her white lips. Harry'R words were but too true; his mother was dying of sudden hemorrhage at the lungs! But once the din- eyes unclosed, and the cold fingers moved oonvulsivt ly. "Harry!" gasped the dying woman as the boy buried bis head, with a heart-breaking sob, in her lap, "I am going home, 0 God, forget not thy covenant with the lutherlessl" Again the cold fingers moved convulsively amid his brown curls; there was a faint sigh; the bend leaned more heavily on Aunt Mary Hairy Willard was moiherless! Two days later tin y buried Mrs. Willard. It was a pleasant autumn m f . & aa day, and the winds sighed through : the tangled grass ol the churchyard, ,U1, the sun beams glinted brightly along lue marble, where Harry a iitotner wan laid down lo that slumber which no sunlight could ever waken, l'oor Harry 1 He did not weep then; hut he stood tlx r- .

at last Aunt Mary ceased her verbal opposition, and set herself about proparing the boy's wardrobe for his w ,r . .

I said, swallowing down the nob that was in my throat, "wheu you are so far away; and you will think vonie times of the village school, and the old trees wher you used to sit wont you?" "Forget you, Ally!" und his arm waa drawn round my watat, and the brown eyes looked cnrnest.y, utmost reproachfully, into mino ' you, whom I love better than anybody in the word, now mammais dead. 0, Ally, j I shall be lying under the grass as deep and as still as she is this pleasant morning, before I can forget you, and !

Ally, 1 have passed the happi est hours of my life with you; and now, won't you give me one of those long curls, that has lain for years against your cheek And I will place it on ray heart; and it will keep it always warm for you. Oon't cry. Ally, dear!" for the tears were dripping down my cheeks as I took Aunt Mary's garden scissors, which she had inadvertantly left on a rustic bench under the tree, and severed the tress. "I'll come back to you when I've grown tobe somebody you'll be proud of;" and his form dilated: "But hark! there comes the 6tage, aunt Ma-' ry is calling;" and the tears trickled on his heavy lashes as he ran toward the house. "Good by, Ally!" "Good-by, Harry!" We stood under the small vinewrapped portico: and he kissed me twice, and then ran hastily toward the gate, for the driver was late and cross. I heard toe rumbling of wheels, and saw through -'ray tears the floating of a handerchief; and Harry Willard was gone, and the red house "down the road" was desolate. rjigiu vt'ais nau nusbeu since mat L. - s 1 . sV -J - I - . . 1 a 0 sf mornine when Harry Willard and 1 murmured our tearful farewells under the vine-wrapped portico.
