At last Charles said, “Do you mean that I sball be ungrateful enough to forget this poor fellow, and to break my word?"’ “I mean, Charley, that you will not only re- member his bravery, but, do your best tot reward it; bus I doubt your power, and I regret that you have disturbed bis mind by the introduction of « ee which may render him unfit for his daily la- jur.** “ We shall see,” answered Charles Cherry ; we shall seo,"* It wae o bright tray night when the oung men sprang into the of Raymond Lodge, where they received the congratulations of their friends and relatives, and Charies won sil hearts by his glowing account of the presence of mind and Wrighat | of the young farmer, who had risked his life for bis preservation. The moon, as I have said, was in the glory of its harvest fulness —s bright beautiful moon—end many of the gey party were grouped in the windows looking out uy its beama, and Lege day Ay effect of the mild, astened iy ly the landscape. Bowe five miles away hes brillians room, James Hod- leaning upon the gate which led to bis father's tealigerery was meditating neither on the moon, nor the landscape, nor the stacking aor ploughing, but on the promise made him that afternoon by the young Oxonian who knew so many fine people —and also of certain Jossie Gray ; for during the last five months whatever James thought of, Jos- aie wae sure to form the foreground, the moss ir- portant portion of the picture his imagination produced: Nor was this surprising, if the beauty and gevtlences of Jessie Gray are taken into con- sideration. James thought it was e very singular thing thet the only man in the parish who seemed insensible to Jessie's charms should be bis own father. Breeyveey had a good word for Jessie except Mr. Hodges; be became afflicted with an incurable deafness whenever she was praised. He told James once that Jessie was too poor and too d for s farmer's wife, and James ventured to tell him that he knew nothing whatever of Jessie thet had spoken his d on of his son's acquain- emai her deughter eo frankly, that she had resolved his next visit should be his last. “And do you, Jessie," inquired the young man, “consent to this!’ Jessie only wept the more, while iar Lape dary sigh talk Fo a ter's oo wo smugyg) 'ar- mer Hoxiges "s family; and boasted thet her own jather’s relations had # carriage to step into when those of other people walked a-foot. “There is no need of such talk, mother dear,” sald Jessie at last, going to the table upon which James bad rested his bands, and then hid his face within their palms; ‘* there is no need of any such talk. James is far above mein the world, and I ought to bave known it before; but I suppose be- ing made more of than! deserve w be, pul mo past thinking it, though I see is now. I will never be the one to encourage him to do anything oppos- ed to his father’s wishes, for I have no means of securing him from the poverty into which his fa. the:'s displeasure would plunge him; and eo, Jemes, way God bless you, and may you be hap- py—#s you will be bereafier—with some oue more suited to your station, and as much to your heart au I was; for I Lelieve you loved me—you said so, and you proved so, and to my latest day I will never forget is." And the poor girl meant all sie said, and felt at thas moment as ifthe world and all therein was dead to her forever, Look, Jesie |" exclaimed James, striking the table with hie clenobed band—e species of rustic Diustrative eloquence w which he was addicted when swongly moved—* father may doand say what he vieases, but I'm not geingto remain with bim—I'm not going to continue clud-hopping all my deys, I shall Lave asiiuation, Jessie; and whev I'm independent of him, you will not ssy me ‘no.’ When youaremy wile, he cannes wus love you.
