Ah me, the blue eyes are dim enough now, and the pretty brown hair has been white for many a long year | rg ' I was tall and erect too, for my dear mother used to say a pretty face was nothing without a good carriage ; and, being the only child, my father and mother idolized me, while I return- | ed their affection with the love of my whole heart. When I was 17, 1 came out, was the belle of the country, and-the prettiest girl for miles round'; and when the brave, handsome young Marry Clive came to stay at my father's, he fell in love with me, and, after a short, hap- Py woeing, asked me to be his wife and 8o out with him to a foreign land where he had to join his regiment. I had no fortune then, so it was quite a love-match ; an old aunt died two years after and left me all her money, but be- fore that I had nothing to give but my love, and that I gave freely and entirely. It was a lovely summer eve, and ve--Harry and [--were pacing up and down the Tong avenue, under the lime trees. The setting sun was shining and glinting through the green leaves, the birds were sluglug their last notes and all was very fair and beautiful ; and, when he stopped and whispered softly, 'Darling won't you be my little wife ? I looked up into the brave and handsome face bending over me, with the earnest eyes looking so lovingly into mine, and murmured * Yes ;' and then he kissed me, and I felt strangely happy, and that life for me would be always sunshine with Harry Clive Beside ate." Then with crinison cheeks and' beating Heart, lidtening to the eloquent words and low passionafé vdice with which Harry told me how he loved me, I wondered in the midst of my new great happiness what he, who was so brave 'and noble, could see to like in me, who felt so unworthy of the love of his noble and true heart; but, when he drew my hand within his arm, and I Iooked up into the blue eyes, I felt I foved him with my whole heart once and forever. Then my father joined us, and 'hurrying to him, I hid my blushing face on Lis shoulder. 1 supposd 'he guessed the truth, for the dear voice trembled with emotion, as he said-- "Take her, Harry--take her; and Heaven bless you both and make you happy I" Ol, those were golden days, short and happy, for Harry was under orders to join his regi- ment, and the preparations for the wedding were vi hurried. - After one short month of) love-makiilg, we wero to sail, man and wife, | for 'a new country, to begin the battle of life | side by side. Dut I felt no fears; loving him so much, and trusting him so entirely, there was no room for fear or doubt to creep in. And so the happy days wore on, and the day sobbing and sighing on the shore ; the tide was in, and there was a cool pleasant breeze from the sea. We watched the silver moon rising silently and slowly out of the water, and sail- ing higher and higher in the heaven, where the little stars were twinkling fairitly fir the depths of azure blue. 'Is it not lovely whispered Harry, pointing to the path of shimmering light across the water. Presently; far-out a boat shot suddenly out of the dimness, crossed the line of light, and then was lost to sight on the other side ; but we could hear the measured beat of oars and the sound of merry voices Harry spoke--Tt is plasant here; But dte you cold? 3hall we go in? I answered 'No, and again'wo relapsed into silence ; and then I noticed that Harry wad unlike his own bright joyous self, and seémed sad 'tnd preoccupied, and once or twice sighed deeply. 'Waatisit? I whispered, nestling closer to his side. He | laughed, but the laugh was forced. * What do you, mean, dear? he inquired, looking down at mV; and [ saw that ho looked pale. 'There is something wrong,' 1'said, speaking earnest- ly; 'you are not like yourself. What is it; Harry? He seemed surprised 'at my earnest- uess, and tried to laugh at me for being so foolish ; but after a time the merry ring died out of his voice, the smile faded on his lip, and he sat, looking pale and troubled, with his head resting on his hand: 'I'kreW frightened. *0, Harry, I said, alpibst Crying, * there is some- thing; and You will not tell me? Putting his strong, protecting arm around me, he drew mo yet closer to him. * My darlitig don't be fool-, ish! There is nothing Wrong, relly ; ¥ would tell you if there were! * You told me we were to have no secrets,' I said, coaxingly ; 'and you are keeping one from me, I know." * Really, Pearl,' he began and then stopped. * Well,' he went on, presently, 'when | tell you this wonderful secret, you will only laugh at me. The truth is, dear, I had a dream last night and it has haunted mé 411 hy'; It seems as if it'were indicative of coming evil' Then gee-| ing, T supposo, the growing fear in my face,' he broke off abruptly, saying, 'There, I am only frightening you! Come, dear, we had better go in ; the moonlight makes one think of all kinds of horrors! * A dream! I repeated.' * What was the dream ? Do tell me, Oh, Harry I shall be miserable till I know !' * Nonsense, love ; you are too easily frightened." But his own face looked strangely pale and troubled in the 'moonlight, as he said half to himselt--'l must really' be: growing superstitious, that, dream thas taken such possession of me.-- ' Pearl,' he asked suddenly, 'if I were to die suddenly what would you do? I answered steadily, looking up into his eyes--* I would ask Heaven to take me too, for--ol, Harry I-- I'conld not live Without yoo. And then, frightened and nervous at his strange manner I burst into tears. ' Darling, I have alarmed you" Don't! Lookup, my love! Such a pale, frightened Pearl.I never saw." * But the Wream, I urged, 'what isit? * Well, he said, 'if you must know you must. But remember dear, dreams have no meaning--none wl atev- er, at least [ hope not,' he added and then went on rapidly--T dreamt that I was walking appointed for tho wedding drew near. My dear mother would sit with the tears running | down her face, 'teeing after everything. and | packing ail wy things with her own hands, | weeping silently as she folded the various | articles and laid them in the boxes. It was the day before the wedding--the third | of August--such a hot, lovely day, without 's cloud to shadow the deep blue sky and still bluer sea, where the little waves were spark- ling and dancing in the sunlight like countless diamonds, and the yachts, with their snowy sails, looked like sea-birds dancing on ocean, After breakiast I took my hai and wandered away through the garden, across the lawn and down the zig-zag path cut through the rock down to the sea, and sat on the bench under the shade of a large bouldet, watching the tiny waves kissing the pebbles at my feet. Fixing my---oxes-fondly. on the] 3 H boundless ocean, I thought of how soon I should be leaving this dear familiar home, with all its fond associations of happy child- hood, to go far, far away across the sea to an- other country, and that perhaps I might never seo the dear old place again; and my eyes roamed from object' to object: with a strange wistfulness, for might it not be the l=st time they wenld rest lovingly and lingeringly on tho dedr familiar scene? And when all grew dim and indistinct, for the hot tears rushed unbidden to my eyes, and covering my face with my hands, I gave way to a fit of ping. The greater part of that hot August day I spent wandering sadly about, restless and un- easy, paying last visits to all my favorite haunts, trying to keep back the tears that were rising to my eyes. It made my heart ache to see my father's wistful face as his eyes followed me about, and I thought of how lone. ly he'would be when I' was far away, with no young companion in his rides and walks, and no one to sing to him in the long winter even- ings. "Cheer up, dear, ho said, kindly. * Your absence will not be for long, Pearl, my dar- ling; and you will write often ; and I answers ed, sobbing. 'Ob, if I could onlv stay with you, papal' And then I stopped, for I knew that for the whole world I would not have it the ought would happen to part Harry and me. He stroked my hair, saying, ' Hush, pretty one} Don't ery--it will spoil your eyes; and my pet evening--and Harry and I were taking our last walk together round the old place that was so dear to both of us, side by side, rather sad and silent. We walked for the last time up an own he avenue under the lime trees, an round the dear old fashioned garden with its closely-clipped yew hedges and gay borders, while 'the perfutie of the stocks awd mig- nonetts stented the warm evening air, and thé red-bredsted robin sat in th&'Bolden sunshine his sweet yet melancholy evening song. Then we paused and looked at the many, gabled old house, half-hidden by masses of ivy and roses, and the setting sun shining redly on the win- dows, making them gleam like gold. > "Sadly and sileiitly wé again wandered on in the fading twilight. Harry plucked a red rose and fastened it in my hair, saying, with gq rose my. hand will ever pick in this garden. And 1 "quickly with toars in my voice--* Oh, no--we will wilk here again when we come home, and it Will not be long till then." He laughed. * How you tremble, dear! Did you think [ 'was speaking prophetieally ? 4 Come, shall we go down to the beach and see rose I have still in a little drawer that, even after all these years, I have seldom courage to open. It lies wrapped in silken paper with a §few sacred relics of those Lappy days--the smile--' There, dear, perhaps that is the last he the moon rise over the sea" That samo red | long a road with tall trees on either side, and 'that I met a {nndral ; first came the hearse with its black plumes waving and nodding, and then a file of mourning coaches, and in spite of myself, I seemed obliged to follow the proces- sion to the churchyard, and up to the open | grave. I strove to see the faces of the assem- bled mourners, but I could ot, for they were all hidden or turned away. The coffin was laid beside the graye, ome one with his 'arm raised to hide his face, advanced and raised the lid, and there, lying cold and rigid, I saw-- myself. Tlere, tbat wasall,and I was very glad to awake and find that it was 'only an ugly dream. Come, dear--don't think of it any more. We must really go in now. LT5_ BE CONTINUED.) S---- !
