THE EVENING STAR, | “WOOED AND ) MARRIED. i ** Mrs. Crofton! Mrs. Crofton! How odd it ‘seppeare tome tobe calied Uroltoa, and Mrs., 4 Lcan bardly believe tuatlam married, ocean lem wuinng in this splendid librar, ‘and my husband bas just leit bis morning kiss on my Hips. It was really wooderfal the way Stall came about. It would crriainly never - ave happened but for my visit to Mrs. Rea- “Laat autumn I was invited with my parents and my two sisteye to spend s coupie of weeks at Firgrove with the Keatons. Mamma refus ed attirst to letme fo, because she thought what four persons were enough tor one party, but Mrs. Renton wouldn't isten to her. She said that, spart from the pleasure of seeing me, she found me ifvaluatle, when the house was toll, because 1 did & thousand things for ber convenience and the pleasure of her guesis, which the servant covidn’t do apd no otber visitor would do ; and that she sbould like tw keep me not only two weeks bai two years i Biy sisters hadeach # regular outfit for the | occasion, but mamma said that | needed noth. ing. I suppose she waa right, tor l aad aspriz- ged muslin for the warm days, made outof & dress which Josephine hd worn te year be- fore, and for cold weather i bad & green silk, made. out of one of Georgiana's. They were - ie ced a trifle, to be eure, for they had original. y been low in the waist, and J wore nothing which didn't button to the tareat; but I hada good suppiy of crimped raties to wear with them, and | thought then, aud think stiil, that | they were very pretty. } Mrs. Renton appeared delighted to see me, | And aithough my sister smililed at my credulity | iu thinking her emoere, my heart went outto meether. Perhaps she didut mean it st ail, but I imagined she did, sod that put me atease atcnce. I etiil believe that L was richt, for she gave meeliitiercom which had helouged to her daughter Acnes, @ lovely child, who died when she wis only ton jears old. There was her portrait: exquisitely painted, | and witha nearf tuil of love looking out from the meex blue eyes and voicing itevit in toe curves of the delicately mouided lips. There, ; too, her bock-case—carved rosewood with glass doots—some of the most worn volumes in which were matur+enougn for girls of 15. There, aleo, were ber writing deek and her work basket with the needle in an untinisned | Jeat, just as she left it. The chamberm:-id told | me that I was the first person woo had occo- | ied the chambereince Agnes died,and although | Was a litue awed, acd perhaps alittie tright- | ened, when I first went injo it, I thinkitstraa- | quil atmosphere and the memories of generozi- ty and eelf-denial which taronged aoout the | beantiful picture helped m+ to bear patieutiy | the annoyances which experienced duringmy | ata. * yor there were ann oyances which I could | not avoid, and which were at times hard to | endure; although I onght not to compisin, since they occurred in con+equence of the fa. | yor in which 1 was held by those persoas whom I admired and loyed the most. The very first | night atter my arrival at grove Mra. Kenton | came and ext down by my bed. For a few minntes she was tilent, and I knew by her Jooks that it made her sorrowful tosee me in Agnes’ place. Sol put my ariss around her neck, and asked her toletme be, as far as I could, a true daughter of the house, and do, as far as I knew how,, all that Agnes would do it she were there instead of me. Mrs. Renton did not answer immediately bat {don't think there wa: her tears. Byeand bye she kissed me without saying anything of Agnes. Instead of allud- ing to her, she toid me that some of ber gueais were selfish and+xacting, anu demand+d more than their share of attention; that others w-+re Treble, and had # claim upon b-r, while she d:- fired to keep @ Littie time tor Mr. Re.ton, and te look & litle Tr the twius, Maggie aud An- nie. “Oxe day,” she contiaued, “One day, my dear, you will know w lies mean Lianghed and anewered tuat I sh have a house of my own, for i ¥ and dark, and awkward, tha’ ed seeing me married, und i was quite convent to remain pupa’s darling, for that was the utle which be al Sgove my Dirs.

Then, in the evening, | was @lwsays needed to play the piano for tne agan.trs, ur to make & fourth at whist, or to be bealen at chess by old Mr. Blakeman, who was so pe‘tish and quarreleome over tho board that everyone but me declined bis invi- tations | When the fortnight wasovermy parenisand | sisters returned home, but Mrs. Keuton would Mot listen to their proposal to take me with them. She said thatehs had not been aole to do anything for my pleasure, And that 1 must remain until there were fewer guests, so that I might have my ehare inthe festivities of the bouse. Aftera dea) of talking, mamma con- sented to Jexve me ce condition thatl would spend three bours inthe library every day over my Italian and German. r. Crofton left the same morning thet my friends did, and I didn't expect to ses him again; nor did I feel any regret; for, when- ever life noticed me at all. it was in such 9 teasing way that I bad hard work to appear indifferent. When I was fresh and in good spirits 1 ached to tay something sharp and unmaideniy, and when 1 was tired out the tears would scarcely be kept back. I thiok 1 Tealiy enjoyed his absence, when, bebold, late in the ev ning, he reappeared accompanied by @ younger sis\er, wbhou he called Angelica, and who was both pretty and good-natured; and | bringing 8 man servant, turre saddle horses, | and two dogs. Qddiy enough, everything was changed for me from ‘hat moment. Augelica | (she insicted npon my calling her by ber first name) to turns with me in playing the piano, and while she was et the instrament I eoyced ‘with her brovher. She aleo occasionally took My feat atthe whist table, allowed hera-if | to be beaten at chess by Mr. Blakeman, and aided meintbenursery eames. One of thenew gandle-borses was kept for my sole use, and the two eplendid dogs were never so happy as when trotting by my side about the grounds, orcuried up at wy lect while I stadied my dictionaries end grammars. Mr Crofton wis as teseing as ever when there were listeners about, but he defended ms adroitly against Amelia Monkton and the Alluns, who seemed to grudge me even & look athis face, and he seldom failed to share the library witn me for @t least & part of my three hours’ confinement. Sometimes be wrote letters, bat more frequent- ly he rexd with ie Italian and Germaa poe s, instructing me respecting the force and potat of the diction, quoting kindred paseayes from other wr ,2bd explaining sack tin- agery and allusi ops as I didn’t folly ande stard. At soch momwen's there was in bis inan- ner am ngled ce wholly won my con , and I sometimes koked up suddeniy from’t my book, bal’ dount- ing tf he were indeed the same person who shot £0 many sparkling Arrows at me in the presence | of the other puests.
