there came into his possession, mulatto
seamstress and her daughter, a child of
sevcn'years. The gentleman was so much

the child, which had the purest Italian
features and complexion, that he resolved
to save it from the life of degradation
which was before it, and to free it and ed

THE LOVE TEST.
CHAPTER I.

Tho course of true love never did run smooth.
SHAKESPEARE.
The lady doth protest too much, mcthinks.
HAMLET.
In that street. Duplessis. which bears
at Versailles, the name of the cardinal
who FIR SO long time, held the reins of
Louis XIV, might have been seen, one
pleasant morning, young man whom we
shall call Leopold Dutifucl. who stood lur-
king and watching as closely as sharp
shooter who aims to pick off sentinel.
Crouched in one of the great gates, he
waited with the impatience so natural to
all young lovers. and which generally ter
inmates by furnishing them the occasion
which they seek and of which they know
SO well how to profit. Immediately in
front of Leopld's place of concealment
might be seen a handsome dwelling. of
which the young man never lost sight
Suddenly the door of this dwelling open
ed, and a young officer in the snowy uni
form of the huSsars emerged from it
Leopold kept snug, and suffered this per-
son to pass. Some minutes after, an eld-
erly man left the dwelling also. As soon
as he had disappeared. our Leopold dart
ed forward, knocking softly at the door of
the same mansion, and giving his name
to the porter, was permitted to advance
into a richly decorated saloon. Here he
found the object which he sought A
young and beautiful damsel was seated
near the fire. She held in her small
white hands, a volume. of which she turn
ed ratl er than read the pages. On per
ceiving Leopold she laid asiIer her book
leaned her elbow upon the faufeui. AMI

ed with deep interest the person of her
vi,itor.
"Ah, we'll. Cecile /" said Leopold in
accents of dismay.
well. dear Leopold" replied the
young girl, with a melancholy aspect.
You see, Cecile. l am lost can
hope no longer. But nevertheless, you
still love me ?'
:. Can you doubt that ?'' she answered
when her eyes sank upon the ground,
Heavens, no p answered Leopold
but must now doubt your father
True, he has not pledged to me-but he
beheld our intimacy with seeming plea
sure. and all things led me to believe that
he would not object TO me as his son in
law. OF course you know who has srri-
we'd %
I By this time the young man had drawn
closely to Cecile, AMI had taken one oil
her hands in his own. His look. attitude.
and frequent signs, all e.inced the mos
devoted attachment.
- My dear leopold. my father loves me
above all things. and Is willing to bessow
my hand upon the person whom he be-
lieves by his position and fortune capable
OF securing me every ,hirg most likely
to render me most happy"
Except love-" exclaimed the young
lover.
"Yes, except Ious." answered Cecile
with a sigh. ..Love is the only thing
which in our youth we deem necessary
for our happiness. but our parents, with
possibly more prudence and ioresight,ool
upon it as frivolous and transient pas
sion. and -
