| HENRY STANDIsH and Amelia left for
New York the following day--for what
purpose the imaginative reader may eas-
ly divine.
The first intelligence that old Mr. Har-
ding received Of the Marriage, he obtain
ed from the newspaper. Hastily leaving
the Office. he made his way TO the resi-
dence Of the heiress. which she occupied
with maiden aunt, as her companion and
house se-keeper.
The happy couple were at home and
Mr.. Harding was in high glee al the sue
cess of his plan. In his calculating brain.
he commended the diplomacy skill and
energy with which Harry had brough,
the transaction to its speedy termination.
He found the happy bridal party pleas
antly disposed in the drawing room. rea-
dy to receive such company as might
honor them. Appearances must be saw
ed. and as the servant conducted him to
the presence Of the willful girl, he con-
trived to work himself into tolera BILE
passion.
"What does all this mean, Amelia!"
demanded he. in loud authoritative tones
My husband. uncle Obed" said she
with charming naivete as she rose and
went through mock presentation.

broker. "lf | mistake not. have not

CHAPTER IL.

HARDING accompanied Henry Standish
10 the residence Of his ward. and present
ed him as highly esteemed young friend
for whom he claimed her special favor.
"Your friends shall always be welcome
uncle Obed." said she taking the hand OF
Henry.
Her uncle! great heavens! is i, posi-
Bile that man can plot the injury of his
own flesh and blood?
Mr.. Harding withdrew in short time
leaving Henry to win his way 10 the heart
of the heiress.
There was that in the eye of the young
man which is irresistibly attractive TO u
young maiden. He was well formed
with handsome face. musical voice.
aud winning manner. Amelia was
strongly prepossessed in ais favor from
the first moment she saw him.
Henry. perceiving his advantage. fol
lowed it up with energy. and ere halt
the evening had passed away, had produc
ed an impression OF the heart of the

conquest.
But he could not but reproach himself
for the part he had accepted and though
he felt that his intentions were good, the
consciousness that he appeared before the
gentle girl in an assumed character. was
anything but agreeable 10 the lofty sem
timen: of the young man.
Amelia was beautiful glrl and Henry
felt that to be loved by her was to him
the delights of Paradise in the midst Of a
cold frowniug world. When he depart
ed. his heart told him that even then he
had gone too far for his own happiness.
He had seen her, and could not resist
the desire TO repeat his visit. He went
again. and the effect Of the visit was ir-
remediable. She blushed when he was
announced-she had thought of him in
his absence-indeed she loved him!
Henry continued his visits for several
weeks: he had confessed his love. and re-
ceived a warm pressure of the hand in
reply.
II have deceived you. Amelia" said
Henry, his mind made up TO continue no
longer the cruel deception.
Deceived me. Henry" repeated she as
she fixed her large blue eyes anxiousiy
upon him.
IL have dearest, am poor, worthless
nan-a beggar.
Is that all? you never told me you
were rich. replied Amelia, entirely re-
lieved 10 find the deception was so haru-
less.
In Few words, Henry acknowledged
the utter poverty and des,itu,ion which
had surrounded him. and gave her The his
tory OF his past life.
81 am glad you are not rich. Henry.
aid she artlessly. when he had finished
his recital; Iii is so romantic to marry u
poor man, so noble and gentle as your
self. l shall have the pleasure of enrich
ing you you know" and she laughed gaily.
Alas dearest. fear you will not even
have that pleasure, returned Henry; and
he narrated the particulars Of his fast in
terview with hes uncle.
lis it possible that uncle Obed can b.
so wicked exclaimed she. with unaifeci-
ed establishment; "dear me. how | pity
| him.
But Amelia. we must
part! no."
Your fortune will be sacrificed.
! Let it 80 then! aud am heartily
obliged TO uncle Obed for making choice
oe so noble, gallant and handsome per-
son to execute his purpose"
Think well what YOU do. dear Anne

Il am satisn ed; my decision l.; made.
My uncle sent you to play the par! of "a
villain: in the face of u strong tempta-
tion, YOU have done your duty. and be-
haved as gallant knight. Think you !
cannot appreciate your devotion? 1 love
you, sir--let the fortune 60"
But l am beggar."
Then let me be the wife of beggar.
Henry folded her to his bosom. and i'm
printed tender kiss upon her rosy lips.
Nay. love, fortune shall yet redeem
US from penury; we shall yet be happy"
Il have it, and HenEys brow contract
ed with the weight of a big thought
which had suddenly invaded his brain.
"Have what, dear Henry?" inquired
Amelia.

You are aware of the term Of your

You ought not TO have brought him

shall claim the residue of her fortune,
said Henry. who had been only listener.
'.Sir! you?"
''Sir. II replied Henry.
"By what right will you claim it?'
asked the broker. exasperated by the inn
pudence of his stool"
LAS this lady's husband, of course. re-
piled Henry.
'By the terms of the will" sneered
Mr.. Harding. 'she could not marry with
out NY consent"
You did consent"
Il! it is faIse!!"
Did you no. actually engage me to
marry the lady?"
The brokers' cheek palcd and his lip
quivered.
No" Numbered he. ITS lie"
IL have proof" said Henry quietly.
Mr.. Harding staggered back. over
whelmcd By the consequence Of his viii
lainy.
Il heard the whole of it--ready to
swear to il in court, if need be-" added
Joseph Jones,
The broker was frightened at the idea
of court.

cling fiercely at Henry.
Let Us hope that we may not meet in
yonder prison." replied Henry s:ernly
The plan you had formed. and narrated
to me. sir. was infamous beyond express
ion. If had refused 10 become your ac-
complice. another. less scrupuloS might
have engaged in it and tnis lady sacrificed
by your rasoali.y. came with the in
tention Of exposing all. but her fair form
and gentle heart so strongly impressed
me. ,h2t iTas weak enough to use the adj
vantage with which you had armed he.
Al another time did expose the whole
sche me, your niece married me in my
own proper character. and not your
esteemed friend" If | have wrungcd
her, God forgive me?"
That was the happiest day o: my life
when YOU brought Henry to my presence
uncle added Amelia. laughing.
The broker waited to hear no more
He had overEeached himself. and he da r
ed not even revenge himself, or punish
the violated oath. In due time he reluc
tantly put Henry in possession of Anne
las fortune, and they are now as happy
as love and opulence can make them.
J Joseph Jones has received that V. wit!
IN: n:eresi, and never has had occasion tc
regret that he befriended Henry in the
hour Of need.
Some oaths are better broken than Ike pit
