the fate which usually befalls wickedly audacious 
spies—that of eating the bitter apple of ridicule 
before all parties, aud learning that, while I had 
been foolishly aud insanely wearing myself out, 
sounding the outer walls and storming the 
castle, all within was as tranquil as peace! 
I grew very old during that time. 1 would not 
see Louisa, again. 1 had made up my mind, 
when things came to the worst, to adopt and 
protect my little namesake, Cabbie Grovk, and 
I thought if poor Augustus never came back, I 
would beg to take the little fatherless boy to my 
own home. 
One day little Jessie came running in, ex¬ 
claiming, 
“ Carrie, Mr. Grove’s got back. I saw him 
talking with the handsome minister.” 
I nearly fainted, with fright. “ Was he—were 
they?” I scarcely knew how to word my sen¬ 
tence. Finally I surprised the child with, 
“ Were they qnarrelling ?” 
“I don’t know, I’m sure,” replied the child 
indifferently; “their backs were to me, but 
they were talking very fast.” 
“Pistols, ten paces, a hearse,” passed like a 
pall over my brain, blinding me with fear. I did 
not have to endure the suspense long. Not 
fifteen minutes had elapsed, ere 1 received a 
hasty summons from Louisa, insisting upon my 
immediate presence at her house. Anticipating 
the worst, I did not even stop for my bonnet, 
but darted out all rneleshabille as I was. Louisa 
met me at the door. 
“ Why! my dear Carrie,” said she smiling, 
“what is the matter? You are whiter than a 
corpse.” 
“Louisa,” Eaid I hoarsely, “how dare you? 
—wbat do you mean?—what are yon smiling 
for?” 
“What do you mean?” repeated she, more 
soberly. “ But do come in and warm yon. ”

ANST thou tell me. sweet voice from out of the past, 
Which so long hast haunted Virginia’s waters, 
Which hast mocked the hunter upon the mountains, 
And charmed in the vale her beautiful daughters; 
Cans! thou tell of the fate of thy comrades in sorrow, 
By what wild forest tribe they were spirited away ? 
Didst thou pine on in slavery, or perish hy torture, 
That thy clear voice should haunt these forests to¬ 
day? 
Dost thou call for revenge on thy swarthy-cheeked 
captors ? 
They are faded away, to the sunset are gone; 
The pale-face now rules, where the warrior stealthy, 
Put the torch to the sleeping colonist’s home. 
We are treading the soil so long called eacred, 
We are breaking the chains of the down-trodden 
slave, 
On the sod of the Old Dominion we’re sleeping. 
While her eons in impotent fury rave. 
Be still, mocking echo 1 the war of the cannon 
Will soon drown thy voice, and the roll of the drums 
Will chase from our mem’ries the white-robed phan¬ 
tom, 
That only in times of quietness comes. 
Ah, why wilt thou haunt me ? To tell that to-morrow 
My body shall He on the battle-red plain? 
To say that a voice far sweeter than fancy 
Shall welcome me home, ah! never again ? 
Then away to thy rest, leave me to my sorrow, 
Oh! mock me no more sweet spirit of air; 
And if 1 must die, thank Gon I die bravely— 
Soon, soon shall I join t hee, Vntaisu Dare. 
NATIONAL WIT 
Italian wit is highly dramatic, spontaneous, 
genial. Among its proverbs are—“The dog 
earns his living by wagging his tail.” “Make 
yourself all honey, and the dies will devour it.” 
“ The smiles of a pretty woman are the tears 
of the purse.” “Ho who takes an eel by the tail, 
or a woman by the tongue, is sure to come off 
empty handed. 
The characteristic of Spanish wit is excessive 
stateliness. Of the proverbs, “He who has 
nothiDg to do, let him buy a 6hip or marry a 
wife.” "From many children and little bread, 
good Lord deliver us.” “ A fool is never a good 
fool unless he knows Latin.” 
French witis characterized by finesse, brilliancy, 
dexterity, point, brevity. In repartee the French 
are uurivalled. Their conversation is not only 
an art, but a fine art. In pruning they are uu- 
eqnaled. In no literature are there so many 
proverbs which speak disparagingly of the fair 
sex. “Mnu is fire, woman is tow—the devil 
comes and blows.” "A woman conceals only 
what she doesn’t know.” “ To get chickens one 
must coax the hen.” “Scratch people where

my prepared tongue. It dove to the roof of my 
moulb at every attempt at a beginning. I had 
no power to speak, and I departed with my 
mission unfulfilled. 
As I sauntered home, disappointed and foiled, I 
reproached myself unmercifully for my unwonted 
indecision. Irresolution had never been my 
besetting sin. To think that, want of courage 
had caused the failure of my mission, surprised 
while it chagrined me. Could it he possible 
that Louisa’s air of innocence was genuine, and 
that 1 was a wicked, blundering accuser? I 
repudiated the idea at once. Had she not con¬ 
tinued a flirtation while she knew her husband 
to be suffering ? Had she not been seen walking 
with him nearly every day since Augustus left? 
“Oh! Louisa,” I exclaimed mentally, “is 
this the quenchless, immortal love of which you 
have so often boasted to me? Are yon not 
content with the entire devotion of such a 
nature as that of Augustus?” 
Then came other thoughts—thoughts of pos¬ 
sible extenuation. Was not the swing-gate 
down, without my ever having been fully inside? 
How did I know but Augustus was the veriest 
tyrant in private? How did 1 know but the 
extremely affectionate nature of Louisa pined 
for appreciation ana sympathy? Not because 
all the crumbs dealt out to me through the hated 
gate were peace, did I take all peace for granted. 
I had ever been lookiug for the first symptoms 
of discord, and here they were! But oh! of so 
different a nature from what I had dreamed! I 
bad been too tenderly guarded, in the home 
circle, ever to view the remotest approach to a 
flirtation among married people with toleration. 
The least I thought of now, was a dud; and the 
Irretrievable ruin of all parties. I prayed night
