If ever beauty stole the heart away
Enchantress, it would fly to meet thy smile;
Moments would seem by thee summer day.
And all around thee an Elysan isle.
ELLEN, the Lilly of the Manor, was the only sur.
wing descendant of the ancient and noble family OF
the Laird of Glencairn. Sixteen summers Of
uninterrupted felicity had passed by, and the
wild and spor,ye child transformed into the
timld, retiring, yet graceful woman. That form OF
sylph-like delicacy had more fully expanded,
vet it still retained its symmetrical elegance
those dark rnglets still flowed unconfned on her
snowy bosom-her large and piercing eye, beam
ing in liquid brightness, expressed every feeling OF
a lofty soul. Her cheek was fair as the spotless
flower, whose name she bore save when the glow
of exercise emotion tinged its pure surface with
blush soft and delicate as the leaf OF the exotic
rose. Never had my eyes rested on being more
perfect, or more maesticasly beautiful than Ellen
of Glencarn, when habed in the dark plaid OF her
native Caledonian mountains. Deep and passion
ate were the feelings Of her enthusiastic mind wild
and unres.rained her youthful sayety The same
eve that now pensivey watched the declining sun,
or followed, with admiring gaze, the silent and IN
deviating course of the silver orb of night, would,
at the well known voice of friendship glance bright
and sparkling in the exuberance OF joyous animation
From the owly cottage Of the peasant to The proud
castle Of the nobleman, the name OF Ellen was alike
revered and beloved. Though surrounded by q

wealth and beauty, the heart OF the Lilly OF The
Manor remained serene and tranquil in the exer

the fleeting shadows of dream, and were as soor
forgotten. The following summer, however, intro

lover of no common order to the beauteous Ellen
Fascinating in his appearance, and with manners
persuasiyey eloquent, Florian Estrada intwined BIZ

"But pure as the dew-drop that sits ON the Hover,
