few days he said nothing tonic about it.
It was an afternoon in October, bright and

and take a walk with him. VVe turned
down a narrow lane into it fine "opt-n fir-lrl—

" Tell me, Charley, who is that fascinating
creature in blue, that waltzes so divinely I’
asked young.Frank Bclniont of his’ friend
Charles Hastings, as ‘they stood ‘playing
wall flower’ for the.moment_at a military ball.
‘Julia Heatlicote,’ answered Charles, with
a halfsigh, ‘an old flame of mine; Iproposed
but she refuted me.’ ' ' ' _ '
‘ On what ground '3' , _
‘ Simply because I had a comfortabIe;in-
come. Her head is full of romantic notions,
and she dreams of nothing but love in ricot-
tagc. _She contendsthat poverty is essetitiiil
to happiness--and money is bane.’ ,
‘ Have you given up all hopes of her 3'
‘Eritii'ely—-in fact I’m engaged.’
‘ 'I‘hen you have no objections to my ad-
d ressing this dear, romantic angel 3’
‘ None whatever. Bull see myfia,m¢rg..s
excuse me-—I must walk through the next
quarlrille with her.’
Frank Belmont was a stranger in Boston
-—a New Yorl:er—immenscly rich and fash-
ionable, but his reputation had not preceded
him and Charley Hastings was the only in-
dividual who knew him in New England.
He procured an introduction to the beauty
from one of the managers, and soon danced
and talked himself into her good graces. In
fact it was a clear case of love at first sight
on both sides. ‘
The enamored pair were sitting apart, en.
prying a m.ostdeligbtful zete atele. Suddenly
Belmont heaved a deep sigh.
‘ Why do you sigh, Mr. Belmont?’ asked
the fail.‘ Julia somewhat pleased with this
proof of sensibility. ‘Is not this 11 gay
scene '2’ ‘
‘Alas! yes,’ replied Belmont, gloomilv;
‘ bu‘. fate does not permit me to mingle lin-
bitually in scenes like this. They only
make my ordinary life more gloorny——and
even here I seem to see the shadow of a.
fiend waving me away. What right have I
to be here 3’
‘ What. fiend do you allude to 7’ asked
Miss I-Ieathcote, with in¢rei1sing’intei'est,
‘ A fiend liarrlly prcsentable in good socie-
ty,’ replied Belmont, bitterly. ‘One could
tolerate a Mepiiistopeles, a dignified fiend,
with his pockets full of mone-y——but in-y tor-
menzor it personifierl, would appear with
seedy coat, and H. shocking bad hat.’
‘ How absurd I’
‘It is too true,’ sighed Belmont, ‘and the
name of this fir.-nd is Poverty.’
‘ Are you poor?’
‘ Yes,rna<laxne. lam poor.and when I would
vain render myself agreeable in the eyes of
bcauty—-in the eyes of one I could love, this
fiend Wlilspers me, ‘ beware-—you have noth-
ing to 0fI'ci'l1er but love in :1 cottage.”
‘Mr Belmont,’ said Julia. with sparkling
eyes and a voice of unusual arrimation, al-
though there are sordid souls in this world,
who only judge of the merits ofan individu-
l by hispecuniary p0SSi’SSl0DS,I am not one
of that number. I respect poverty, there
is something highly poetical about it, and I
imagine [lint happiness is oftcner found in
the humble cottage than beneath the palace
roof’ '
Belmont appeared enchanted with this en-
couraging avovvul. The nextday, after cau-
tioning his friend Charlr=y to say nothing of
his actual circuinstaaces,lie called on the vid-
nw Heatbcote and her fair daughter in the
character of the ‘poor gentleman.’ The wid.
ow had very difli-rent notions from her off‘-
spring, and when Belmont candidly confes-
Sed his poverty when requesting permission

ed to change the subject and never mention
' it again.
The result of all this niar.<2uvering' was
an clopement, the belle of the ball jumping
out of ti charnlrer window on is shed, and
coming dovin a flight of steps to reach her
lover, for the sake of being romantic, when
she might just as well have walked out ofthe
front door. ,
'I"hv.~. happy couple passed a day in New
York city, and then Frank took his beloved -
to his cottage.’
An Irish hark conveyed them to a miser-
able sbanty in the environs of New York,
where they aliglitcd, and Frank,escorting the
bride into the apartment which served for
parlor, kitchen and drawing room, and was
neither pzipr-retl, not carpeted, introduced her
to his mother, much in the way Claude
Mclnotie presents Pauline. The old wo-V
man, who was pealing -potatoes, hastily‘
WlpE‘(l’I'lGl‘ hands and face with I greasy‘

ried them clothes, ma’arn,‘she added to Julia"
by way of explanation, ‘ to look smart when
he went down east.’ -
The bridegroom retired -on this hint, and
soon re-appear-ed in a pair of faded nzmkeen
pantaloons, reaching about to the calf of
the log, a very shabby black coat, out at the
elbows, ti ragged black ‘Vcst, and in place of
