When the cotillion closed, the Capr eatd her on a s.iEa in tho farther part of tha r iom. The window waa open, and the scent of .May flowers uaed through the room.

He then related in en animated tone the ungenilernmily conduct of Lagrange.

The ire cf Preston was aroused, and he said VVell. by jlrsgraf&n, we'll show him that a southern murderer sha'n't impose himself on respectable community - With the utmost speed he completed his toilet, while Ansvlus sat resting his elbows on the table in a rather solemn attitude. 'Now, then for it. Meredith rive me tha note or whatever you term it, and let's try his mettle.' He rang the bell and ordered his horse in the utmot speed. In a few moments the neighing courser was at the gate, stamping as if in haste to be ciT. 'Where shall 1 see cf meet you, Ansylui !' Here. here. 11! await your return. As the sound of the horse's hoofs died away in the distaiica. Ansjlus traversed th room. A scowl darkened that beaulii'ul face a scowl of hatred. But enddeuly chat.gitig his countenance & KUihfenly as the sun bursts out on a darkened landscape? he thought of Amy. the idol of his heart ol her whom he had oved for long years; he h-.-cht of tha pieHsant rambles they had had together -of the pleasant rows upon the bosom of the mighty father of waters, and how. when a billow would boisterously surge against their tiny boat how Amy would cling lo him, in childish fright, ' and beg htitt to row to shore. Oh! those happy moments! are they gone forever? ills mind became almost changed; but collecting him sell, as becomes the dignity ol manhood, he murmured, 'perhaps i mij (all, Amy, by the hand ol this wtratijer, and if I do. will you not cast one thought to him who loves you so devotedly f This is foolish, to engage sn such an ah iray. and to fall upon the green sward a lileless efs3.

The other arose, took hi hand, and answered Prestoti IJawnt-nd, sir. 'I am Harry Lcgranga.' The csmplitnents ci'tht mornT. j v. era passed, and then Preston, with rather a nervous hand, made known his business, for the eagle eyes of Lagrange had simost penetrnted .1 st i,-t r ins eritrd. and he sat eyeing him with his largs dr.k eyes.

Amy was waitinj in the parlor, ee&teu on a low stool, running her fingers ovei the harp. Emmet paused on, and La grange slipped iiAo tha parlor. Amy arose, he took her band, slightly kissiuj. it, looking straijht'y, but mildly into hei lace, (Ah.
