THIS article has been thoroughly tested by builders, Architects, and Others, and the experience ofycars has proved it to be the cheapest; and most durable roofing in 'use. We call attention to the following facts 2 1st—It is fire and water proof. 2d—FOOin its great elasticity it is not inju— riously affected by extremes ofhent and cold. '3d—It is adapted to all kinds Of Roofs, whether stccp'or flat, and is not in want Of constant, repairs, as is the case with metal and other roofs. 4th—-The cost is only about One-Half that Of ’I‘in, and it is twice as durable. .- It is readily applied to Old Shingle Roofs, without :rcmoving the shingles, which is a great dcsidcratum to parties who do not wish to risk having their ceilings and furniture ru- ined, while repairs are being made. ‘ Leaky Tin and Metal Roofs are readily re- paired with Gutta Pcrcha Cement, and prevented from further corrosion and leaking thereby insuring a perfectly water-tight roof for many years.

She professed to give it im- promtu, so far as she was concerned, and to speak under the direct influence of the spirit of Edgar A- Poe. Whatever may be the truth about its produc- tion, the poem is in several respects a remarkable one. Miss Doten is apparently incapable of origins. ting such a poem. If it Was written for her by some one else, and merely committed to memory and recited by her. the poem is nevertheless wonder- ful as a reproduction of the singular music and allit- eration of Poe’s style, and as manifesting the same intensity of feeling. Whoever wrote the poem must have been exceedingly familiar with Poe and deeply in sympathy with his spirit. But if Miss Doten is honest, and the poem originated as she says it did. - it is unquestionably the most astonishing thing that Spiritualism has ever produced. It does not follow necessarily, in that case, that Poe himself made the poem—although we are made to believe a great many spiritual things on less cogent evidence—but it is in any view of it that may be taken, a 'veryzsin- ' gnlar and mysterious production. There is in the second verse an allusion to a previous poem that purported to come from the spirit of Poe, which was published several years since, and attracted much attsnfion, but the following poem is of a higher Order and much more like Poe than the other. But while this possesses the peculiar measure and alliteratu of the Raven, there is still :lacking nearly all fie flashings cf Poe‘s genius ; and while it is claim“ that the ladyl“medium” could not have originated it, we are quite sure the spirit of Poe couldn't, un- less it has sadly deteriorated since it left its moral clay,-—or, as the Hartford Press has it, “unless he is a good deal dcader than generally reported to be.’ At all events the poem is worth a reprint and reading, so we give it— From the throne of life eternal, From the home of love supernal, Where the angel feet make music overall the starry floor- Mortals, I have come to meet you, Come with words of peace to greet you, And to tell you of the glory that is mine forevcrmors. Once before I found a mortal \ Waiting at the heavenly portal— Waiting but to catch some echo from that ever-open- ing door ; Then I seized his quickened being, And through all his inward seeing, Caused my burning inspiration in a fiery flood to pour! . ' Now I come more meekly human, And the weak lips ofs woman , Toncli with fire from ofi‘ the altar, not with burnings as of yore, But in holy love descending, With her chastcned being blending, I would fill your souls with music from the bright celestial shore. As one heart yearns for another, As a child turns to its mother, From the golden gates of glory turn I to the earth once more, Where I drained the cup of sadness, Where my soul was stung to madness, And life’s bitter, burning billows swept my burden- being o‘er. Here the harpies snd the ravens, Human vampyrcs—sordid cravens, Preyed upon my soul and substance till I writhed in anguish sore ; Life and I then seemed mismsted, For I felt accursed and fated, Like a restless, wrathfnl spirit. wandering on the Siygian shore. Tortured by a nameless yearning, , Like a frost-fire, freezing, burning, Did the purple, pulsing life-tide through its fevered channels pour, Till the golden bowl—life’s token— Into shining shards was broken, And my chained and chafing spirit leapt from out its prison door. ' But while living, striving, dying, Never did my soul cease crying ; “Ye who guide the fates and furies, give! oh, give me, I implore, ~ From the myriad hosts of nations» From the countlessconstellations, One pure spirit that can love me—-onc that I, too, can pdore 1" Through this fervent aspiration Found my fainting soul salvation,. For, from out its blackened fire-crypts, did my quick- encd spirit soar; And my beautiful ideal— Not too saintly to be real— Ilurst more brightly on my vision than the fancy- formed Lenore. ‘Mid the surging seas she found me, With the billows breaking round me, And my saddened, sinking spirit, in her arms of love uphore ; Like along one, weak and weary, Wandering in the midnight dreary, On her sinless, saintly bosom brought me to the heavenly shore. - Like the breath of blossoms blending, Like the prayers of saints ac sending, Like the rainbow’s seven-lined glory, blend our souls forever more. Earthly love and lust enslaved me, But .divinest love hath saved me. And I know now, first and only, how to love and to adore. ’ Oh, my mortal friends and brothers, We are each and all unother's, And the soul that gives most freely from its treasure‘l hath the more, Would you lose yourlife, you find it ; And in giving love, you bind it ; Like an amulet of safety, to your heart forevermors l I .1- g; .. _ O m l a f t l i if it p . Ax HOUR wrrII LINCOLN.—A Springfield Ill, correspondent of the N. Y. Post recently spent an hour with Mr. Lincoln. He does not find him alarmed at the threatening atti- tude of the secessionisis, nor inclined to the ill-timed suggestions in regard to a public proclamation. He believes that his success is only a pretext for what has been long pre- paring. “I know,” said he, “the justness of my in- tentions, and the utter groundlcssncss of the pretended fears of the men who are filling the country with their clamor. If I go into the Presidency. they will find me as I am on record—nothing less, nothing more. My de- clarations have been made to the world with- out reservation. They have been ofter re- peated; and now, self-respect demands of me and of the party that has elected me; that ' when threatened I should be silent.” Mr. Lincoln receives a large number of letters from them full of abuse which no de- cent man would write and threatening death in all its forms. By these he is not annoyed as he justly regards a man who will write an annoymous letter as one not to be feared. He is already beset by office seekers, and it may save the time of some oi them to know that their applications are not considered. “1 have made up my mind,” said he, “not to be budgeted about those places. I have promised nothing high nor low, and will not. By-and-by, when I call somebody to me in the character oi an adviser, we will examine the most responsible posts, and decide what shallhe done. As for the rest, Ishall have enough to do without reading recommen- dations for postmasterships; these, and all others of the sort, 1 will turn over to the heads of departments and make them re sponsible for the good conduct of their sub- . ordinates. OINDERBLLA ; OR, '- rnn man OLD snort ' A MODERN now IT was FOUND.— Concluded. “Oh, girls, how splendid you are! It does my heart good to see my handsome sisters in their best one t,” cried Nan, one mild Octo- ' ber night, as s e put the last touches to cer- tain airy rnimcnt, fashioned by her own skil- fulhands, and then fell back to snri’ey the grand effect. ‘ Di and Laura were preparin to assist at an “ event. of the season,” and an, with her own locks fallen on her shoulders, for Want of suudr combs promoted to her' sisters’ and her toss in nnwonted disorder, for lack- of the many pins extracted in exciting crises of the toilet, hovered like an affectionate bee about two very full blown flowers. “Laura lookalike a cool Undine, with the ivy-wreaths in her shining hair; and Di has illuminated herself to such an extent with those scarlet leaves that I don’t know what great creature she resembles most,” said Nan beaming with sisterly admiration. “Like Juno, Zenobia, and Cleopatra sim- mered into one with a touch of Xantippe by way of spice. But to my eye, the finest wo- man of 'the three is the dishevclled young person embracing the bed-post; for she stays at home herself, and gives her time and taste to make homely people finc,-—whicb is a waste of good material, and an imposition on the public.” As Di spoke both the fashion-plates look- ed afl'ectionately at the Igray gowned figure: but being works of art, ey were obliged to nip their feelings in the bud, and reserve their caresses till they returned to common life. , “Put on your bonnet, and we’ll leave you at Mrs. Lord's on our way. It will do you ood, Nan; and perhhps there may be news from J Ohn,” added Di; as she bore down upon the door like a man-of-war under full sail. “Or from Philip,” sighed Laura with 'a wistful look. . Whereupon Nan persuaded herself that her strong inclination to sit down was owing to want of exercise and the heaviness of her eyelidsa freak Of imagination; so, a ' smoothing her ruffled plumage, she ran down to tell her father ofthe new arran ement. “Go, my dear, by all means shall be writing; and you will. be lonely, ifyou stay. But I must see my girls; for I can ht glimp- sea of certain surprising phantoms. itting by the door.” Nan led the way, and the two pyramids re- volved before him with the rigidity of lay figures, much to the good man’s edification: for with his fatherly pleasure there was min- gled much mild wonderment at the ampli- tude of array. - . “Yes. I see my geese are, really swan, thou h there is such a cloud between us that I fee a ion way off, and hardly know them But this litt e daughter is always available, always my “cricket on' the hearth." - As he spoke, her father drew Nan closer kissed'her tranquil face.,and smiled consent. “Well, if ever I see pictures, I see ’em now, and I declare to goodnes it’s as interestin’ as play-actin’, every bit. Miss Di, with all them boughs in her head, looks like the Queen of Sheby, when she went, a visitin’ What’s-his name, and if Miss Laura a’n’t as sweet as a lolly-banter jigger, I should like to know what is." In her enthusiasm Sally gambollcd about the girls, flourishing her milk pan like a modern Miriam about to sound her timbre! for excess of joy. . Laughing merrily the two Mont Blancs bestowed themselves in the family ark. N an hopped up‘ beside Patrick, and Solon, roused from his lawfhl slum rs, morosely trundeled them away. But lo mg backward with a last “Good night,” Nan saw her father still standing at the door, with smiling counte- nance, and the moonlight falling like a bene- diction on his silver hair.- “Betsc shall go up the hill with you, my dear, an here’s a. basket of eg- for your fa- ther. . Give him my love, an be sure on let me know the next time he is poor y.” Mrs. Lord said, when her guest rose to depart after an hour of pleasant cbq‘. But Nan never got the gift; for to her greqt dismay, her hostess dropped the basket with a crash, and flew across the room to meet a tall shape pausing in the shadow of the door. There was no need to ask who the new-com. er was; for, even in his mother‘s arms, John looked, over her shoulder with' an eager nod to Nan, who stood among the ruins' with ' n e v e r a sign of wearincss in her face, her the memory of a care at her heart, for they all went out when John came in, “Now tell us how and why and when on came. Take Off your coat, my dear! And here are the old slippers. Why didn’t on let us know you were coming sosoon ? ow have you been? and what makes you so late tO-night? Betsey, you needn’t put on your bonnet. And-ob, my dear boy, have you been to supper yet ?” Mrs. Lord was a quiet soul, and her flood of questions was poured softly in her son’s ear; for, being a Woman, she must talk, and 'bein a mother, must pet the one delight of her life, and make a little festival when the lord of the manor came home. A whole drove of fatted calves were metaphorically killed, and a banquet appeared with speed. John was not one of those romantic heroes who ‘can go through three volumes of hair- brcadth escapes without the faintest hint of that blessed institution, dinner; therefore, like “Lady Leatherbridge,” he “partook co- pious] of everything,” while the two women issue over each mouthful with an interest that enhanced its flavor, and urged upon him cold meat and cheese, pickle and pie, as if dyspepsia and nightmare were among the lost arts. h Then he opened his budget of news and fed f em. “I was coming next month, according to custom; but Phillip fell upon and so tempt- ed me, that I was driven to sacrifice myself to the cause of friendship, and up we came to-nighf. He would not let me come here till we had seen your father, Nan; for the poor lad was pining for Laura, and hoped his ood behavior for the past year would satisfy his judge and secure his recall. We had afine talk with your father, and, upon my life, Phil seemed to have received the gift offon ass, for he made a most eloquent plea, whic I have stored awa for future use, I assure you. The dear ol gentleman was very kind, told Phil he was satisfied with the success of his probation, that he should see Laura when he liked, and, if all went well, should receive his reward in the spring. It must be a delightful sensation to know you have made a fellow-creature as happy as as those words made Phil to-night." John paused, and looked musingly at the matronly tea-pot, as if he saw a wondrous fu- ture in its shine. Nan twinkled off the drops that rose at the thought of Laura's joy, and said, with grate- ful warmth—— “You say nothing of your owu share in the making of that happiness, John; but we know it, for Phillip has told Laura in his letters all that you have been to him, and I am sure there was other eloquence besides his own before father granted you say he has. 0b,John I thank you very much for it." Mrs. Lord beamed a whole midsummer of delight upon her son, as she saw the pleasure thesel words gave him, though he answered Sim ) y—- “ only tried to be a brother to him, Nan - for he has been most kind to me. Yes,I said my little say tO-uight, and gave my testimony in behalf of the prisoner at the bar, a. most merciful-judge pronounced his sentence, and be rushed straight to Mrs. Leigh’s totell Lau- ra the blissful news. ' Just imagine the scene when he appears, and how Di will open her wicked eyes and enjoy the spectacle of the dishevelled lover, the bride elect's tears, the stir, and the romance of the thin . She‘ll cry oyer it to-night, and caricature t to-mor- row. - - - ~ And John led the laugh at the picture he had conjured up, to turn the thoughts of Di’s dangerous sister from himself. At ten Nan retired into ‘ the depths of her old bonnet with a for difi'erent face from the his hat, mounted guard. _ “Don’t stay late, remember, John!” And in Mrs. Lord’s voice there was a warning tone that her son interpreted aright. ' “I’ll not forget mother.” And he kept his word; for though Philip’s happiness floated temptingly before him, and the ittle figure at his side had never seemed so dear, be ignored the bland winds, the ten- der night, and set a seal upon his lips, think- ing manfully within himself, “I see many signs of promise in her happy face; but I will wait and hope a little longer for her sake.” “Where is father, Sally ‘9” asked Nan as that functionary appeared, blinking owlishly, but utterly repudiating the idea of sleep. “He went. down the garding, miss, when the gentlemen cleared, bein’ a ittle flustcred by the goin’s on. Shall I fetch him in?” ask- ed Sally, as irreverently as if her master were 11 ha of meal. “ 0, we will go ourselves.” And slowly the two paced down the leaf-strewn walk. Fields of yellow grain were wavin on the hill-side, and sore corn-blades rustle in the wind, from the orchard came the scent of ripening fruit, and all the garden- lots lay to ready to yield up their humble o erings to their master’s hand. But in the silence Of the night a greater Reaper had passed by, gathering in the harvest of a righteous lite, and leaving only tender memories for the gleancrs who had come so late. The Old man satin the shadow of the tree his own hands planted; its fruitful boughs shone ruddily, and its leaves still whispered the low lullaby that hushed him to his rest. “ How fast he sleeps! Poor father! I should have come before and made it pleas- ant for him.” As she spoke, Nan lifted up the head bent down upon his breast, and kissed his pallid cheek. . “Oh, John, this is not sleep l" “Yes, dear, the happiest he will never know." For a moment the shadovvs flickered over three white faces and the silence deepened solemnly. Then John reverently bore the pale shape in, and Nan dropped down beside it, so ing, with a rain of gratcful tears,— “ e kissed me when I went, and said alast ‘good night!’ " For an honrsteps went to and fro about her, many voices whispered near her, and skilful hands touched the beloved clay she held so fast; but one by one the busy feet passed out, one by one the voices died away, anti human skill proved vain. Then Mrs. Lord drew the orphan to the shelter of her arms, soothing her with the mute solace of that motherly embrace. “Nan, Nan! here‘s Philip! come and sec!” The happy call rccchoed through the house and Nan sprang up as if her time for grief were past. “I must tell them. Oh, my poor, girls, how will they bear it ?—they have known so little sorrow ." , But there was no need for her to speak; other lips had spared her the hard task. For as she stirred to meet them, a sharp cry rent the air, steps rang upon the stairs, and two wild-eyed creatures came into the hush of that familiar room, for the first time meeting with no welcome from their father’s voice.‘ With one impulse, Di and Laura fled to Nan, and the sisters clung together in a silent embrace, far more eloquent than words.—-' John took his mother by the room, closing the door upon the sacredness of grief. “Yes, we are poorer than we thou ht; but when everything is settled, we she] get on very well. We can let a part of this great house. and live quietly together until spring; then Laura will be married, and Di can go on their travels With them, as Philip wishes her to do. We shall be cared for; so never fear for us, John.” Nan said this, as her friend parted from her a week later, after the saddest holiday he had ever known. . “And what becomes of you, Nan ?” he ask- ed, watching the patient cyes that smiled when others would have wept. “I shall stay in the dear old house: for no other place would seem like home to me. I shall find some little child to love and carc’ for, and be quite happy till the girls come back anti want me.” John nodded wisely, as he listened, and went away propliesying wituin himself,— “Shc shall find something more than a child to love; and, God willing, shall be very happy till the girls come home and—cannot have her.” Nun's plan was carried into effect. Slowly the divided waters closed again, and the three fell back into their old life. But the touch of sorrow drew them closer; and, though invis- ible, a beloved presence still moved among them, afamiliur voice still spoke to them in the_ silence of their softened hearts. Thus the soil was made ready, and the depth of winter the good seed was sown, was watered with many tears, and soon sprang up green with the promise of a harvest for their after years. ‘ ' ' Di and Laura consoled themselves with their favorite employments, unconscious that Nan was,growin paler, thinner, and more silent, as the wee 3 went by, till one dey she dropped quietly before them, and it suddenly became manifest that she was utterly worn out with many cares and the secret suffering of a tender heart bereft of the paternal love which had been its strength and sta . “I’m only tired, dear gir.'s. ou’t be troubled, for I shall be up to-morrow,” she said cheerily, as she looked into the anxious faces bending over her. . But the weariness was of many months’ growth, and it was weeks before that “to- morrow” came. Laura installer] herself as nurse, and her devotion was repaid four-fold; for sitting at her sister’s bedside, she learned a finer art than that she had left. Her eye grew clear to see the beaut of a self-denying life, and in the depths of sn’s meek nature she found the strong, sweet virtues that made her what she was. Then remembering that these womanly at- tributes wero' a bride‘s best dowry, Laura gave herself to their attainment,that shcmi ht become to another household the blessing Nan had been to her own; add turning from the worship of the goddess Beauty, she gave her hand to that huniblcr and more human teacher, Duty,—lcarning her lessons with a willing heart, for Philip s sake. Di corked her inkstand, locked her book- case, and went at housework as if it were a five barred gate; of course she missed the leap, but scrambled bravely through, and ap- peared much sobered by the exercise. Sally had departed to sit under a vine and fig-tree of her own, so Di had undisputed sway; but if dish-pans and dustcrs had tongues, direful would have been the history of that crusade against frost and fire, indolence and inexpe- rience. But they were dumb, and Di scorn- ed to complain, though her struggles were pathetic to behold, and her sisters went through a series of messes equal to a course of “Piincc Benreddin's" peppery tarts. Re- eality turned Romance out of doors; for, an- like her favoritc heroines in satin and tears. or heimet and shield,,Di met her fate in a big checked apron and dust-cap, Wonderful to see; yet she wielded her broom as sioutly as “Moll Pitcher" shouldered her gun, and marched to her daily martyrdom in the kitch- en with as heroic a heart as the “Maid of Or~ leans” took to her stake. Mind won the victory over mbtter in the end, and Di was better all her days for the. tribulations and the triumphs Of that time; for she drowned her idle fancies in her wash- tub, made burnt-offerings of selfishness and pride, and learned the worth of self-denial, as she sang with happy voice among the pots and kettles of her conquered realm. , Nan thought of John, and in the stillness of her sleepless nights paryed Heaven to keep him safe and wake her worthy to re- ceive and strong enough to bear the blessed- ness or pain of love. Snow fell without,and keen winds howled among the leafless elms, but “herbs of grace" were gloonring beautifully in the sunshine of sincere endeavor, and this dreariest season proved the most fruitful of the year; for love taughtLaura, labor chuatened Di, and pa- tience fitted N an for the blessing of her life. Nature, that stillest, yet most diligent of ydraulic power, though she smile ing’.’ which she makes so pleasant that none find the heart to grtunble as they do‘ when other inatrons set their premises a-dust. Her handmaids, wind and rain and sun, swept, washed garnished busily, green carpets were unrolled, apple-boughs were hung with dra- peries of bloom, and dandelions, pet nurslings of the year, came out to play upon the sWard. From the South returned that opera troupe whose manager isn’ever in despair, whose tenor never sulks, whose pima donna never fails, and in the orchard bonafidc matinecs were held, to which butter cups and clovers crowded in their prettiest a ring bats, and verdant young blades twink ed their dewy lorgnettes, as they bowed and made way for the floral belles. May was bidding June good-morrow, and the roses Were just dreaming that it was ill: most time to wake, when Jolm came again into the quiet room which now seemed the Eden that contained his Eve. Of course there was a jubilee; but something seemed to have befitllen the whole group, for never had they all appeared in such odd frames of mind John was restless, and wore an excited look, most unlike his usual serenity of aspect. Nan the cheerful had fallen into a well of silence and was not be extracted b any by- like the June sky over her head. Di’s peculiarities were out in full force, and she looked as if she would go off like a torpedo at a touch; but through all her moods there was triumphant, half-remorseful expression in the glance she fixed on John. And Laura, once so si- lent, now sang like a blackbird, as she flittcd to and fro; but her fitfnl, song was always, “Philip, my king." John felt that there had come a change upon the three, and silently divined whose unconscious influence had wrought the mira- cle. The embargo was off his tongue, and he was in a fever to ask that question which brings a flutter to the stoutedt heart; but though the “man” had come, the “hour’ had not. So, by way of steadyiiig his nerves, he paced the room, pausing often to take notes of his companions, and each pause seemed to increase his wonder and content. He looked at Nan. She was in her usual place the rigid little chair she loved, because it once was large enough to hold a curly-head- ed playmate and herself. The Old work- basket was at her side, and the battered fhimble busily at work; but her lips wore a smile they had never worn before, the color of the unblown roses touched her cheek. and her down-cast e cs were full of light. He looked at i. The inevitable book was on her knee, but its leaves were uncut; the strongminded knob of hair still asserted Its supremacy aloft upon her head, and the tri- an ular jacket still adorned her shoulders in defiance of all fashions, past, present, or to come; but the expression of her brown coun- tenance had grown softer, her tongue had found a curb,.and in her hand lay a card with “Potts, Kettel,& Co.” inscribed thereon which she regarded with never a scornful word for the “Co." ' He looked at Laura. She was before her easel, as of old, but the pale nun had given place to a blooming girl,.who sang at her work, which was no prim Pullas, but a .Clytic turning her human face to meet the sun. “John, what are you thinking of?” _ He stirred as if Di’s voice had disturbed his fancy at some pleasant pastime, but answer- ed with his usual sincerity,— _ “I was thinking of a certain dear old fairy tale called ‘Cinderella.’ ” “Oh i” said Di; and her “0b" was a most impressive mOnosyllablc. “I see the mean- ing of your smile now; and though the ap- plication of the story is not very complimen- tary to all parties concerned, it is very just and very true." _ , _ She paused a moment, then went on With softened voice. and earnest mien,—— ‘ “You think I hm a blind and selfish crea- ture. So I am, but not so bII‘l’I or selfish as I have been; for many fears have cleared my eyes, and much sincere regret has made me huinbler than I was. I have found a better book than any father’s library can give me, and I linvercad it with a love and admira- tion that grow stronger as I turned the leaves... Henccforth I take it for my guide and gospel, and, looking back upon the selfish and'ncg- lcctf‘ul past, can only say, Heaven bless your dear heart, Nan." . Laura echoed Di‘s last words, for, With eyes as full of tenderness, she looked down upon the sister she had lately learned to know saying warmly,—— . ’ “ch, 'Hcaven bless your dear heart, Nan! I never can forget all you have been to me, and when I am far away with Phillip, there will always be one countenance more beau- tiful to me than any pictured face I may (its- cover, there'will be one place more dear to me than Rome.- The face will be yours Nun, —always so patient, always so Serene; and the dearer place will be this home of ours, which you have made so pleasant to me. all these years by kindnesses as numbcrless and noiseless as the drops of dew." “Dear iris, what have I ever done, that you sbou d love me so ?” cried Nan, wrth happy wonderment, as the tall heads, black and golden, bent to meet the lowly brown one, and her sister’s mute lips answered her. Then Laura looked up, so ing, playfully, “Here are the good and bin sisters—where shall we find the Prince ?" “There l" exclaimed Di, pointing to John, and then her secret went off like a rocket; for, with her old impetuosity, she said,— “I have found you out, John, and am ashamed to look you in the face, remember- ing the past. Girls, you know, when father died, John sent us money, which he said Mr. Owen had long owed us and paid as at lost? It was a kind lie, John, and a generous thing to do, for we needed it. but never would have taken it as as a gift. Iknow that you meant we should never find this out; but yesterday I met Mr, Owen returning from the West, and when I thanked him for a piece of justice We had not expected of him, he gruflly told me he had never paid the debt, never meant to pay it, for it was outlawed, and we couil not claim a farthing. John, I have laughed at on, thought lyou stupid and treated you no indly; but ' know you now, and never sluill forget the lesson you have. taught me. I am proud as Lucifer, but I ask you to for- give me, and I seal my repentance so—and I) With trgic countenance, Di rushed across the room, threw both arms around the as- tonished young man‘s neck and dropped an energetic kiss upon his cheek. There was a momentary silence; for Dr finely oillustmted her strong-minded theories by crying like the weakest of her sex. Laura, with “the ruling passion strong in death,” still tried tO draw but broke her pet crayon and endowed her, Clytic with a supplementary orb, owing do the dimuess of her own. And N an sat wrth drooping eyes, that shops upon her work, thinking, with tender pridc.— . “They know him now, and love him for his generous heart.” . Di spoke first, rallying to her colors, though alittlc daunted by her loss of self control,— . “Don't laugh, John,—I couldn’t help it; and don’t think I‘m not sincere, for I am,— aud I will prove it lily growing good enough to be your friend. but debt- inust be paid, and I shall do it; for I shall turn my books and pen to some account, and write stories full of‘dcar old souls like you and Nan, and some one, I know will like and buy them, though they are not ‘works of Shakspenrc.‘ I‘ve thought of this before, have felt I had the power in me; now I have the motive and now I’ll do it." ' If Di had pro osed to translate. the horan, or build a new i. Paul’s, there would have, been many chances of success, for, once moved, her will, like a battering ram, would knock down the obstacles her wits could not surmount. John believed in her most hear- tily, and showed it, as he answered, looking into her resolute face,— “I know you will, and yet make us very proud of our ‘Chaos,’ Di. Let the money lie, and when you have made a fortune I’ll claim it with enormous interest; but believe me, I feel already doubly repaid by the es- teem so encrously confessed, so cordially bestows , and can only say, _ as we used to years, ago,-‘Now lets forgive and so for- ? l get. . obligation, even by retuinin salute ; she slipped away, and shaking off the last drops, answered with a curious mixture of old freedom and new rcspect,— " ’ “NO more sentiment, please, Johns-«We friend, I never let him go.
