Now for the veritable history of ths Misses Sharpe.” “When first I became acquainted with the Misses Sharpe they were not pose Lucinda, or, as her sisters called her, Lucindy, was not fat and fair, though she was forty. Providence —called by her sister Provy—was several years ber senior. Lucindy was certainly not as lovely as ® poet's dream. She was and thin,and took no pains to appear @isé. Her pride was to appear natural. Her hair, bleck and wiry, was herown. She never powdered or psiated; never squeezed orange juice into her eyes, like the Spanish women, to make them bright; never used henna, like the Turkish women; had not even as much as heard of Paris masks for the complexion--Vestris’s paste or tale. She wasa true child of nature without sham or pretense. She wore her bornets very close and her dresses very short; she wore no featbers—it was a sin; Lucinda Sharpe was one of those peoplo who see sin in everything they look at; who cry out sin at every sight and sound that gladdens this beautiful earth, and fills the heart with silent ecstacy. She had even been heard to reprove the young pastor for laughing too loud. ‘Hush, my dear,’ she would say, in an awful tone, ‘don’t laugh teo loud; it is asin.’ Whenin her presence you felt as if you were the greatest sinner in all creation; that you had twice as much original sin and t as much acquired as any one else. “My dear,” she would say, in freezing tones, ‘I saw you during prayers look up several times from your book at Mr. Harvey. Now, Mr. Harvey is a very handsome young clergyman; but the young ladies of the church commit a very great sin when they look at him during prayers. I never look from my book. I never see any one inchurch.” “Now, your eyes may have wandered to Mr. Harvey's face during the prayer, not be- eause you were anxious to look at him, but be- cause you were perhaps listless, or you could not give up your whole soul to devotion as you should have done. You may have been mourn- ing over this deadness, down in the depths of your high-backed pew, shut out from mortal eye. You may have been bewailing your cold- ness and striving to recall your wandering thoughts, when, struck by the fervor of the minister's tones, you raised your eyes and looked at him, praying silently in your heart that you might have the power as well as the wish to give yourself wholly up to the spirit of prayer as did Rev. Mr. Harvey. “Tt was a sin with this ‘sinless child of earth’ to act and think contrary to her ideas of right and wrong. It was a sin to read any other books than the Bible, Prayer Book, and the Whole Duty of Man. She was a great churehwoman, whose creed was no salvation out of the church catholic, which is Protestant Episco) She had never been to a meeting- house in her life, but bad always sat under the preachings of those who could prove their descent from the Apostles. Sidney Smith bimeelf was not more intolerant of Dissenters than was Miss Lucinda Sharpe. “Providence Sharpe eschewed being alto- gether a child of nature. She consen to wear avery brown braid, suggestive of per- petual youth, and adorned her person rather more lavishly than her sister. She was rather milder in her mode of speech than Lucinda, but, like her, equally despised the lords of creation. I well remember the evening that Grace, the servant girl, had an admirer. [ was taking a social cup of tea with the Misses Sharpe, at their snug little mansion at the corner of the street. We were gathered around the tea-table; the hospitable board was well spread; muffins and tea smoked before us; the preserves were of their own making; the beef of their own dryin; A fire burnt in genial glow in the well-polished grate, before which jay two fat, well-conditioned tabbies, enjoying a charming siesta “<Now, this is what I call comfort, Miss Providence,’ I said, as I looked around and his works,’ responded Grace, demurely. “Yes, that was my promise. Now, the cir- cus is the devil’s presence-chamber; decked off to make it alluring; it is a very wicked, a shockingly sinful place. Do you know that, ace Morris asked = lorris me to go, ma’am,’ replied Grace. ‘He never told mse it was a sin!’ “ "Geo Morris! heavens!’ ejacu- lated both ladies. ‘Who is George Morris? Speak out, girl—no hesitating.’ “« *He’s the butcher's boy, ma’am.’ “<Bhe butcher's boy! said Miss Lucinda, ironically. ‘Truly itocratic, I do think. Really. girl, I have no patience with you. Where on earth did you make so low an ac-. quantance 7” ‘** He brings the meat to the door, ma’am,’ said poor Grace, turning scarlet. “<* And what if he does bring the meat to the door? ~ that is the very reason you ehould not have spoken to him. Better never eat meat than have such a dreadful affair under our very roof.’ “<I have promised to marry him, ma'am,” murmured Grace, gaining courage ladies. ‘My Men! men! ““*She certainly is crazy,’ said Lucinda throwing down the letter, ‘Men, indeed! f don’t care tosee how she finishes that sentence now. = “‘ Miss Lucinda was wretched after the de- parture of her sister; and the Presbyterian clergyman, who lived next door, was kind enough to step in of an evening, to sit with her and offer consolation. In a short time Lucinda was heard to pronounce him a man of wonderful grace, deeply interesting and charmingly consolatory. Old prejadices van- ished as speedily as ‘The tear down childhood’s cheek that flows.’ A bishop was superfiuous—apostolio descent could be proved, in short.”’ “Stop, "stop, aunt, I implore you. I swal lowed that story of Miss Provy; but, indeed, I cannot open my mouth wide enough to take in Lueinda, too."’ “My dear, if I were telling you a fiction, pepe would I stop here; but this is a veritable istory. I regret, for consistency's sake, to say that Lucinda actually married the clergy- man Now, when you protest so positively against matrimony, just think of this story of &woman’s xo. We, none of us, can tell what we may be induced to do in this world of change. Like you, like the Misses harpe, I once said I never would marry. I am now Mrs. Villers. Ah! here is my husband. We are just difeussing a woman’s xo, my dear.”” “What do you think of a woman's 1, uncle?’’ eagerly cried Lucy. “A woman’s zo! Well, let me see! Lucey, love. if Mrs. Villers will excuse me, I must say that my experience of it proves it gratis dic- twm—said for nothing.” —————_—_—_—— A MBS.
