After what had taken place I did ,not expect to see Mr. Morris and his daughter at tlte theatre againâ€" ,nor did I.

I could not but conjecture at what he meant at such mements: it was certainly mysterious; it seemed as if, while he mingled with the gay world, he scorned it, as if he dc- rncancd himself by condescending to partake of its false pleasures. The dark shade around his character daily assumes a darker line! It was now within a week’s time of the wedding, and had told my mother that I would not be present at the ceremony; I explained my feelings to Euphrasia, and departed for New York, where I soon after received a letter from my father comn'tunicatihg to me the facts of the marriage. I shudered as I read; it was as bitter to my feelings as wormwood to the taste. “ What, Euphrasia the wife of Fairfax I" _I mentally exclaimed. ‘-‘ Is it possr- ble? Has it really taken place?

All resigned to the hollow opinion of the world -â€"to outside appearances. Thus it remained; and for the Space of six or seven months my mother seized upon every opportum ty to convche with me. At the expiration ofthat time she had elici- ted a promise from me to accom- pany the family (Fairlax included) to the Brandywine Springs. in the State ofDelaxvar-ea retreat to which many of the fashionable and Wealthy of our 'itics resort during the sum- mer months. l We had been at the Springs about 1 four days when I met with an inci-' dent wluch I Will here relate.

AFTER a refreshing sheep of six- or seven hours, I leaped out of the bed on the following morning with a lightened heart; the bitter reflections of the past evening, though not for- gotten, were felt with less irritation.

Had he rgmained longer I should have asked him who discharged the pistol. I saw Fairfax snatch it from the ground, but that was no positiyc proof that it had been fired by him; though, from that circumstance, toâ€" gether with the fact. of his being up- on the body of Mr. Morris whenl came up, I was led to consider ltim the assailant.
