It was the first of May, the marriage day of the Viscount Montressor of Montressor Castle, Dorsetshire, and Estelle, ay daughter and heiress of Sir Parke Morella, Hyde il, Dev- onshire. A glorious morning! the cloudless, blue sky iled down upon the green hills and dewy dales i deep wo of Devon; and the park around the Hall was all alive and musical with the joyous songs of birds, and the merry laughter ot young wen and maidens gathering to cele- heir May-day festival, and to do honor to ihe marriage of their landlord's daughter. The elm-shaded, winding avenue that led from the highway to the house, was arched at rach terminus by a mammoth wreath of flowers. nd many were the carriages that d under them, on their way to assist at the wedding: and these contained only the bridesmaids and the nearest friends and relatives of the family, whose relationship or position gave them the right to attend the bride to church;—for a still nore numerous party had been iawited to meet her at the altar. The villagers and tenants, uped about under the shade of the great old or wandering over the greensward on r side the avenue, watched these equipages y rolled on, commenting as usual on such ms. *- Oh—dear me! the weddingers won’t pass till nearly twelve! and here we are to wait two mortal hvars !’’ said a young girl to the game- keeper. ~ Hash' my darling look, here comes his Lordship’s carriage, itself, just as sure as you’re the prettiest lass in the country.” It was Lord Montressor’s carriage. Early that morning a note from his affianced bride had been ae hands summoning him t»a private conference with her at the Hall, be- | fore they should proceed to the church. Sur- prised and filled with vague uneasiness, his lordship lost no time in obeying the behest. Within the most secluded of her suite of rich- ly furnished apartments at the old Hall, half buried in the depths of a cushioned chair, re- clined the bride expectant, in bridal array. She was alone, her attendants having, by her own desire, withdrawn. belle Estelle,” stelle Morella—or “la * Beautiful Stella,”’ “ the Midnight Star’’—as, for her resplendent dark beauty, she was poeti- ally named—was at this time twenty-five years of age. and more lovely than a poet’s or wn artist's ideal. Her form was of medium | hergtt, and very slender, though well-rounded, with a graceful head, over which fell rich masses of jot-black silken ringlets, shading a face of pure, pale olive complexion with large mourn- tul dark eyes. habitually veiled by the long, «rT oping lashes, and delicate, though full, curved I Sv9e pabiently closed as in silent resig- a e prevailing expression ofher ax: brilliant countenance was a profound melan- choty. The announcement of Miss Morelle’s ap- proaching marriage with the Viscount Montres- ~r had ereated a profound sensation in the fashionable and aristocratic circles. A peerless beauty, the only child and heiress of the oldest, wealthiest and haughtiest baronet in the West of England. her heart had been as much the ebjeet of aspiration to the youthful and ardent, ner hand and fortune had been the end of to the mercenary and ambitious. At the early age of seven years, Estelle had u placed at one of the first-class female in- utions ot learning at Paris, then as now, con- ered among the very best of their kindin the world, and there had been left to remain until her sixteenth year. when the sudden and cal- amitous breaking up of the institution, and her own severe illness, had occasioned her removal. That illness had heen attended with marked rhanges tn the constitution and temperament f the young gurl. Estelle, previously the most careless, light- | arted and capricious of children, left her vamber of convalescence a subdued. thoughtful, tuelaneholy woman! The laughing lips of girl- | hood elosed in = Sadness; the sparkling | eyes sheathed their beams under long, shadowy | lashes. now seldom lifted: the silvery, elastic voice, sank into deep and thrilling tones; the free, glad motions were measured and controlled. be never entered another school, but com- d her education under the best masters, at howe. To dissipate what was considered a tran- sient melancholy, her parents traveled with her over Europe, pausing at each capital and chief ‘own. to show her all that was interesting and ‘ustructive. But though their daughter repaid ‘se'r attentions with the sweetest gratitude, aul obeyed them with the gentlest docility, she showed no interest in the passing scenes. And though everywhere her extreme beauty and | **eetness of disposition, not less than her for- tune and position, drew around her many friends and admirers, Estelle remained alone in her fated thoughts and feelings Every most ‘tinguished physician in Europe had been consulted upon her case, and the result of their Wisdom was a decision that this melancholy was the effect of ill health, still less of secret row, but that it was a constitutional phase would probably pass away with maturing turned to England, presented their at court, and introduced her into all | se gaieties of fashionable life. But with no happy effect upon the spirits of Estelle, who re- tained profoundly unmoved amid the eclat st greeted herdeSut. Her picturesque beauty s the theme of all tongues—her mournful ace was fascinating—her deep tones thril- ug—her touch magnetic ; all felt her power, st she who could move all others, remained mpressed. She who sought no conquests, ve that very reason perhaps, made many. A peer and two commoners, in succession, laid | their fortunes at her feet, and were in turn kindly and firmly rejected. , Sv passed her first season in London, at the ~c of which her parents took her down to {herr seatin Devonshire. Here, in her thought- ‘4°, quiet. anostenta*ious manner, she en; ‘a works of benevolence among the vil nl the tenantry. And her father, hoping ch from this employment, gave her full lib- | ¥ of action. and smiled to see that she seemed pens han before. © beginning of the parliamentary term, * family went up to London. And it was here in her second season in town ile formed the acquaintance of Lord | «ssor, & young nobleman but lately ac- | “ded to his titles and estates, but already “seen a3 & man of the most high-toned moral ! intelle:tual excellence, as a righteous, as well as a rising statesman, and as one, who in © event of * change of ministry would be like- 'Y to fill a high offictal position in His Majesty's | “sbinet. Aside from the glare of ran| and ‘ealth aud power, Charles Montressor was a Eorious specimen of the Creator’s workman- ““'p. Above the average standard of height “aong his countrymen, broad-shouldered and ““b-ehested, with a noble head, and a face full vin and goodness, his appearance trul ated the warm benevolence, clear intelli- pure spirit of the man. His pres- : — Estelle with a faith that she “* been able to feel in any other that a) Proached her. He drew nearer to her than any Eben oad + VOL. IX. other had been permitted to come; he crossed the magic circle of her isolation, and conversed with her as no other had been allowed to do. The world looked and said that the beautiful Stella had at last net her master and was con- t this stage of affairs, the ‘liamenta: term being over, Sir Parke Mérelle and his family left London for Hyde Hall. _ Lord Montressor asked and received permis- sion to follow them, and in less than a month availed himself of the privilege todo so. Thus it was in the home of her ancestors, after hav- ing obtained the cordial sanction of her parents. and believing himself sure of the affections of their daughter, Lord Montressor offered his heart and hand to the lovely Estelle, and was to his profound astonishment instantly and firm- ly rejected! In thus rejecting his sult she wept ay ee bitterly, praying his forgiveness, that the happiness she had experie: and exhibit- ed in his society should have betrayed him into making this declaration, and beseec! him never to renew his suit; but to leave and forget her. There was something in the tone of her refusal which confirmed and deepened his pre- vious conviction that—even in rejecting him— she loved him! But with his hi Sacad senti- ments he would not in the least degree presume upon that knowledge. Taking her hand with deferential tenderness, he a a ‘* Stella! a man never but once, in his whole existence, loves a woman as I love you! I will not inquire the cause of the rejection, which you have certainly a right to make without as- signing any reason for the act. And after hay- ing received this repulse, I may not in honor distress you by a renewal of my suit. But this, in parting. I must say to you—that, though I go hence, I shall not go out of the reach of your friends: I shall never address another woman; so if ever, in the course of future weeks, or months, or years, however long, you may think proper to review the decision of this evening, Stella, I implore you to let me know! Write but one word, ‘ Come,’ and I will return to lay an unchanged heart at your feet !”’ « Estelle was weeping too bitterly to reply. “Stella! will you Sor to do this ?’” “Lord Montressor, best and dearest friend! do not seek to bind yourself to one who can give you nothing in return! Try to think of the melancholy girl that you have pitied and loved —vonly as a shadow that fell for a moment across the sunshine of your path, and then passed away forever '—and so forget her !”” “Stella! I have pledged my honor never to renew this suit, unless you reverse in my favor the sentence you have pronounced upon it; but, inspired by the deep and deathless love I bear you, and * hoping against hope,’ I feel im- pelled to implore leaving you, that in the event of a farccable change of sentiment or purpose towards me, you will not hesitate to leave to return. much as that ?*’ * Noblest friend that I have in the world! how gladly would I promise, but I must not, Montressor. Were I to do so, you would feel bound to wait the changes of my mood, and so, for a most undeserving love, might miss, in nobler woman’s affections, the happiness in store for you !"* * Stella, will you raise your sweet, mournful eyes to mine, one moment, that you may read my soul while I speak?” Estelle lifted her dark orbs to meet the clear. pure, blue eyes bent with so much love and candor upon hers, and read the deep, unchang- ing truth of the constancy of hissoul as he said— “ Stella, in the preseuce of the heart-search- ing God who sees and hears me, I assure you that I shall never love another woman as I love you, and, therefore, of course, can never wed another; so that whether you give me this slightest of hopes or net, I am equally and for- ever bound! Now will you promise Stella? Remember, it is only to let me know in case of a change in your sentiments.”’ For an instant the light of an unutterable love and joy broke on her beautiful dark ‘a-e, and her ling lips parted to speak—when— as if a sudden memory and warning had gripped her very heart—she uttered a low, a ery, turned paler than before, and then said— “No! no! my Lord! Stella cannot even give you that! She is poorer than the poorest, In gifts to you! She can only pray that you a forget her and be happy.” He looked profoundly disappointed and trou- bled. But soon mastering his despondency he said hopefully— “Well, dearest Stella, although you reject me without apparent reason, and refuse to give me the slightest promise or the most distant hope, yet J repeat—should you in the long fu- ture, change your purpose, and write to me one ; give me Stella, will you promise me so word— Come,’ I will hasten to lay at your feet an unchanged heart! Good bye! God be with you!’’ and raising her hand, be bowed over it, pressed it to his lips, turned and left the room. Some moments after Lady Morelle, who came to seek and congratulate her daughter upon what she imagined to be the only possible re- sult of the interview—found Estelle lying ina swoon upon the floor! It was followed by a long and terrible illneas, terminating in a te- diously protracted convalescence. ‘The town season was at hand before Estelle was able to re-enter society. They went up to London, and once more the “star of beauty’’ arose upon its world. And though the cloud upon her life settled darker and heavier, day by day, she was more followed, flattered and courted than before. Thus three years had passed away, when one morning, when the family, then occupying their town house in Berkely Square, were seated at a late breakfast, and Sir Parke was e: in reading aloud, from the London Times, an account of the saving of the French ship—Le Due D' Aujou—wrecked off the coast of Al- guers—Estelle uttered a low ery, and sank fainting frow her seat. This attack was not, as the other had been, followed by illness; on the contrary, from that day, the cloud seemed lifted from her head, and even those who had most admired her face in its shadow, were enchanted to sce how brilliant was her beauty in its sunshine! Her health and spirits daily improved, yet in the midst of all this flowing tide of new life, Estelle aston- ished her friends by suddenly, in the height of the London season, retiring to her father’s country seat, where she remained in strict se- clusion from the world for eighteen months. At the end of this period, Lord Montressor, who had never left England, or lost trace of his beloved Stella, and who was now staying at his castle in Dorsetshire, was one day seated at breakfast when the morning mail was brought him. Among a score of letters the first that attracted his attention was a dainty white en- velope, superscribed in a delicate handwriting. He took that up first, and opened it—it con- tained but one word—* Come.” {to BE CONTINUED IN OUR NEXT.] +e — Great Fire 1s Hooksett Woops.—A fire commenced in Hooksett woods Saturday night, and has been raging ever since.
