There was but one heart that had not rejoiced whan the engagement of the veung couple was announced— for Mr. Lindsley and Kate rejoiced im Ada’s happiness even theugh it waste be the means of taking her away from them—and that one was the heart of Theresa Gordon.

One evening, abeut the middle et the tollowinzy September, George | Tilden was pacing with a hasty step the floor of Mr. Lindsley’s parlor, aie . 5 jwhile Adelaide sat by the tadle, carelessly turning over some en- jgravings. Her usually colorless cheek was even painfully flushed ; her eyes were an anxious and troub- {led expression, and her hand trem- i bled so perceptibly that she laid | down «gain the picture she had _lift- the table.
