A farmer was bereaved of his wife some sixteen years ago, an infant daughter" an only . child being left to console him in his afilu-tinma. The dangliler grewtip a beautiful and amiable young lady, and not long since did what maid- ens have done from time imtnemorial--fell in love. ' ` - - l '1' I 7.. `L- _____ _ _..-.- An IIJVUO But unfortunately Tor her, the young man on whom shephad lavished the wealth of her youthful aections was poor. although worthy of her in every other respect; and when her stern ` parient, discovered how matters were drifting, he ordered the distracted daughter to conne herself to her room, anti to her needle- work, nnd commanded the young man of poor though honest parents, never again to darken his door. V A stern, unyielding parent was he ; and so satised of this fact was the daughter, after a rather intimate acqttaintattce of about sixteen years, that she uttered not ` 0rd of remonstrance. but went quietly into.` clusion and decline, pining away after the approved style of disappointed and forlorn maidetthood.

About this time a wealthy and miserly old fellow in the neighbourhood, who had seen the lady_ a. few times,- and become enamonred, made known his ame to the father, directing him to tender her his hand in connection with a miserable fossil he called his heart. In short he wished fo marry her. The father was in ecstacies with the proposed match. as the old man, though old enough to be her grandfather, was known to be immensely rivh i The girl however. treated the proposition with disdain, mingled with a considerable quantity of dis- gust, and intimated that she would die rst.

Several weeks passed by in which the daughter pined more and more, still rm in her resolve however; and her father became more and more enraged at what he termed her sense- less obstinacy.
