It was a rdcnsant dm in the month of June, when 1 tl.rj.ci ndod the little hill that leads into the d dkhtful village of II on its southron siuo. I had often visited this little spot, and always admired the neatness ef its situation; hut it never appeared so beautiful as at this time. The lake that stretched along its eastern txt remit, was as still j 1 ......I r-ilm n ; 51 lit I !.- 1 111 wliirll II If a 11tlliVi . . . ... ..... dercd flowly through the village, and emptied itself into its placid waters save now and then a little breath of wind would pass across its silver bosom, as the little ripling waves glittered in the sunbeam. The heavy foliage cf the poplars as their tops waved gently in the breeze, by the little while dwellings which they surrounded, gave it a romantic and tasty appearance, which I could not but.admire. "There is little Miry Mendon,' said my friend George Garnet whom I was accompanying to II on a visit. "As true as Yes! it is the little sylph! Don't you see her by yonder white house, in the garden? lovely girl ! she reminds me of her once happy mother, and once respected father! There she gees; did you not see her enter at that green door as she came from the garden?" '1 saw a pretty, blue-eyed girl, with rosy cheeks,"' replied I ; "iuit what renders her such a favorite of our. ? are you acquainted with the little charmer?'' 'You thrill have her history,' said he "as it is short but not uninteresting, nor devoid of instruction. "In the little, but peaceful mansion, which you saw the little girl enter, that I have expressed so much interest for.

"Such at the age of twenty-two was Henry Mcndontnnd such of the fairer, and weaker sex, at the age of eighteen was the lovely Harriet Ashley, to whom he had long paid his addresses, and from whom he had the hap; iness to learn that his love was umequiitod. The) ardently loved each other, and from the similarity in their habits and dispositions, it was the prediction of their friends that their union would be a happy one. They were married ; and never shall I forget the emotions of j n I felt at the wedding. The amiable, the beautiful Harriet Ashley bestowed her hand and heart upon the no less accomplished Henry Mcndon. There was not a countenance in all the smiling group that had assembled on the oc casion, hut bespoke the unison of their feelings on this interesting subject. "He was presented by his f.thrr with thill little low, white collage, al most embosomed in the deep green of the locust trees that are scattered in tuch profusion around il, which ou see at the right of that stream wh. h gurgles through the rich and varied landscape cf the farm that was pie-ent-cd with this humble dwelling.

Peace smiled in their secluded dwelling they lived the happiest of the happy the admiration of all who knew them. "Tilings were in this happy situation, when Henry was lu.-t discovered to be in the habit of indulgii.e a small du.m, or "social glass' of spirits in the morning. .Nothing as said, or thought of it at first; but it was soo:i apparent, that this habit was growing upon him to an alarming degree.
