met him with heightened color in cheek
and her blaze eyes.fashng from beneath
her long lashes with sparkles Of unwonled
pleasure. Shall | mention particulars!-

imagine how warm hearted young wife

sick, or some accident had occurred: but
here you are. And now, have you had a
| pleasant time? and whom did you sect anu

Charles stopped her mouth.
Yes, here am safe and sound, and full
ofnews; but you huddle questions with such
volatility, that should never get chance
to answer them, and your mouth here wide
open TO ask don't know how many more
well, them answered she, flinging her
self into an attitude of attention, and fol-
ding up her arms like judge upon a
hench-.There, am dumb, and ready TO

! And with considerable apparent difficult
ty she closed her lips.
Now, them said Charles, mark me-
Il WILL said Julia.

laughing, sin the first place, they are well;
next, l have had very pleasant time; and
lastly, | have seen old Mr. Peterson, and
Aunt Saray, and Mr.. and Mrs Wander
dyke, and little Rob, Henry and Maria"
And this inquired Julia, SIS the news
you are to tell? and these are all you saw?'
'Oh. no! replied Chnres, mysterious y;

are bright daggers no man should rashIy
encounter They are soft melting, liquid
heavenly blue--i'u Of the light OF intellect

You are only jesting with me- said Jul
IA, endeavoring, but in vain, TO check the
change that came over her face, as the
shadow Of a cloud fits across the stream.
This is some Dutch beauty, and you can
scarcely describe her without laughing
Come, now tell the truth"
'You may believe it or not, just as you
please" SAID Cha rles, shut | assure you
the whole account is true; as the enjoy

DRY is delicious
Jula was sensitive and artless She
loved her husband with that deep tender
ness which knew all The thrills Of love-
hopes and fears. Her heat was like COB
lie; filled 10 the brim, whose contents trem-

lightly. There was, therefore, in these
enthusiastic praises of another, something

not believe that he was serious, and 70, C ng
