Habry began to matter some reply, but was 
dismissed immediately. 
That night Ouvia scarcely closed her eyes, but 
lay upon her bed, endeavoring to see her path 
clearly through the darkness which seemed to be 
closing around her. She reviewed all the

The keys was in MiBsis Baoley’b room, by de

So the slipper had come back. It had served a 
bad purpose, and atoned for it by a good one. 
Mr. Kkkkb did not relinquish the self-imposed 
task of vindicating MIrs Maiikland’s honor, until 
it was thoroughly performed. She received the 
united apologies of the Baglky’s, with tbo offer 
of a handsome present, which she firmly declined. 
11 arry was sentenced to ten years in the State 
prison, and as his wound did not prove fatal, he 
is now serving his time out. His subsequent ex¬ 
aminations discovered his father as his principal 
accomplice, and he was furnished with similar 
quarters. 
The people with whom Ouvia resided shared 
in her new found joy and hope, and a letter of glad 
tidings from Ned jnst filled the measure of her 
happiness. 
l'oor Ned, he never saw Ouvia Markland 
again, for when he returned, after an absence of 
nearly five years, she had been so completely 
transformed into the handsome Mrs. Kerne, with 
a miniature Ni.n and Ouvia by her side, that he 
would not havo known her had he not been pre¬ 
pared for such an event la sympathy with her 
sisterly anxiety for him, we will state that Ned 
was greatly improved, and thouirh we called him

As he hastened ou in the hitter cold, 
While so closely wrapped was his ttately form. 
That he heeded not the driving storm. 
“ Nothing to give!”—and a wailing cry 
Went up to God as the blast swept by. 
“ Nothing to give!” said a lady fair, 
While jewels gleamed in her raveu hair, 
And the Eastern loom* their skid had sought 
For her gorgeous robes in I .entity wrought.

Went sadly forth ’mid the raging storm.

As she lightly sped on her joyous way, 
And thought le-j-ly turned from the pleading face, 
Where famine and want their impress trace.

Is mingled now with the pleader’s prayer. 
“ Nothing to give!” said a bright-eyed hoy, 
Of his princely home the pride and joy;

So go away, little beggar child.”

Go paltering on ’mid the frozen sleet.

Something to give when the needy call.

did not offer her one. This made a new situation 
difficult to obtain. She had grown pale and thin, 
and people looked pityingly at her as she passed 
along the street. As yet, no word from Ned, and 
the young heart hoped on. One morning, in a 
rapid walk to the store where she hoped to obtain 
some sewing, she encountered Mr. Keene. She 
drew down her veil, hastily, for the sight of him 
called up unpleasant associations; but he had re¬ 
cognized her. 
He wished her good morning, with an apology 
for addressing her, and walked by her side, 
making some inquiries as to her present occupa¬ 
tion and residence, and requested the privilege of 
an interview at her house. He seemed kind; his 
was the fust friendly voice which she had heard 
in a long time, and in the hope that he might open 
for her some way out of her troubles, she con¬ 
sented to bco him. 
When he came, he spoke frankly and consider¬ 
ately of the trials which she had undergone, and 
said that he felt sure that injustice had been done 
her. He could not sanction Judge Baoi.ky’s 
course, and knowing that she was alone in the 
world, he had feared the effect of misfortune 
upon her mind, unless some friend came to her 
assistance. He had influential acquaintances, he 
said, and thought he could procure her a good 
situation. It would be a pleasure to do so. 
Omvia could hut accept his kindness with 
grateful acknowledgments. Ilia appearance in¬ 
spired her confidence, and she trusted in the pro¬ 
tection of a higher Friend. The promise was 
amply fulfilled, and she had no cause to regret 
the change. She met Mr. Keene occasionally, 
though he never intruded his presence upon her. 
When he came to the house, it was on business._ 
He wag always busy, but if the truth were known, 
he was still earnestly seeking to unravel the pie*, 
to which Olivia seomod to have been made a 
victim. He had a double motive therefor.

MATTIE’S SMOKING CURE 
A wild girl was Mattie Lee. I knew her when 
she was fifteen; she was the first in every frolic; 
a favorite with the master; yet the scholar who 
ofteuer than any of the rest, caused a shade to 
rest upon his brow. 1 knew her when a grown 
up young lady; she was first in every party of 
pleasure; a favorite with all the gentlemen, yet a 
coquette who oftener than any other caused a 
shade to fall upon their hearts. 
BY CAROLINE A. HOWARD. 
[Concluded from page CS, last number.] 
Secure in the privacy of her own loom, the 
poor girl gave way to her pent-up distress in tears 
and prayers. Then, summoning all her strength 
and dignity, she resumed her daily duties. She 
felt so conscious of her own and her brother’s in¬ 
nocence, that she chided herself for her anxiety. 
Bhe was sure it would all come right, and her 
grief was solely that, her employers should have 
so low an opinion of her character us they had 
exhibited. Busying herself among the children, 
she tried to forget what had happened. All day 
long, there were whispered conferences between 
Miss Baulky, her brother, and their mother, and 
among the servants. Olivia noticed that in 
these, black Harry took a conspicuous share, 
and she then remembered how ho had watched 
her from the window the evening before. 
It wms trying to her sensitive feelings to see 
the averted looks, and the sudden silence among 
them all when she appeared, hut she bore it as 
well as slm could. Hakkv’u manner seemed dif¬ 
ferent from the others. Kate and Jane looked 
serious, even pitiful, toward her, but Harry 
would turn his shiny head on one side, in the 
most knowing way, and if she looked at him, 
would griu or hum a tune, as he shuffled away. 
Harry was a notorious liar, and they all knew it, 
but he was good-natured and willing, seldom 
quarreling with the other servants, so they kept 
him. He did not like Olivia, and she had once

I knew her, too, 
when a true-hearted woman, she gave her hand, 
with her heart iu it, to Richard Forrest, the edi¬ 
tor of one of our village newspapers. Now. 
Richard was a line fellow, but, like a good many 
other “nice young men,” he had one habit—he 
would smoke. This habit annoyed Mattie quite 
as much as it would inoat young ladies, but she 
did not commence curing him of it ns they would 
have done—with prayers and tears entreating him 
for “the love he bore her, to give up the noxious 
weed;” not she. Mattie took a jdan less thread¬ 
bare, and it was this wise: 
They were boarding, and had a nice room, 
second story front. On a certain evening, just be¬ 
fore dark, Mattie bush ? A jrself with putting the 
room in perfect order—placed every chair where 
it belonged, arrange.; the books on the table, and 
the mantel ornaments iu the most tasteful man¬ 
ner. After taking a careful survey of the room, 
and satisfying herself that everything was as it 
should be, she went to a bureau, and took from 
one of the drawers a small package, neatly wrap¬ 
ped in tissue paper; some jewel, probably, you 
will say, “with which she intends adorning her¬ 
self to meet her lord.” She carefully unrolled 
the paper, and took from it a new, spotless tobacco 
pipe; then opening at one end a little roll of care¬ 
fully scaled silver paper, she commenced stuffing 
the pipe with the fine cut tobacco. How strange 
her little white fingers looked, diving into the 
hateful stuff! The pipe well filled, she laid it 
carefully on the table, placed a match beside it, to 
better half.”

Soon she heard the street door open, and a well 
known footstep in the hull below, Quickly light¬ 
ing the match, she applied it to the herb in the 
pipe, Bcatedherself, and when her husband entered, 
sat quietly by the stove, with wreaths of blue 
smoke curling gracefully over her head, which 
was thrown back in that peculiar position of en¬ 
joyment which gentlemen assume while inhaling 
the weed. 
Mr. F. had opened the door with visions of Mat- 
tic’s smiling face, looking lovingly on him, float¬ 
ing through his mind. Uow ffiffcreni the picture 
that met his astonished gaze! On hearing the 
door open Mattie looked up, and taking the pipe 
deliberately from her mouth, bid her husband 
“good evening,” as though nothing unusual had 
happened, then quietly resumed her smoking.— 
Richard regarded her with a mixture of surprise 
and horror fora few moments, and then gave vent 
to bis feelings in words:
