An Awkward Predicagment.

l was once engaged to be married, Chow I went so far as that is a marvel to me still, ! but an incident of so frightful a character took place as to put the matter entirely out of the question. was young undergra- duate, spending the summer with a reading party at the Irish lakes, when met with with Lucy, and got, in short, to beaccepted. She was residing with her mother, in the same hotel in Killarney as ourselves, and we met every day. We boated on the lake togeth- CT, and fshed, and sang, and read. We landed on the wooded islands in the soft summer evenings, to take our tea in gipsv fashion, and to sketch; but she and most ly whispercd-not about love at all, as remember, but of the weather and the rubric: only 1t seemed so sweet to sink our voices and speak low and soft.
 Once, in a party over the moors, while was leading her pony over some boggy ground, Icaught her hand by mistake instead of her bridle, andshe did not snatch it away. It was the heyday and the prime of my life, my friend, and that youth of the spirits which no power can ever more renew. 1 know what she felt, and what would please her, as soon as the feeling and the wish themselves were born. Our thought-mv thought at least-''leaped out to wed with thought, ere thought could.wed itself with speech.'' She took fancy to huge mas tiff dog belonging to a fisherman, and I bought it for her at once, although it was terribly savage, and, (exccpt from Lucy's liking it) not either good or beautiful. It's name, also the only oneit would answer to, and sometimes it would not to that-was TOWSpr not a name for a laly'S npt at all and scarcely for gentleman's. There was a little secluded field, hedged in by cop pice, which sloped into the lake, about a mile from the hotel; and there Lucy agreed Gor the first time) to meet me alone. Twas to be there before breakfast, at eight o'clock in the morning, and you may be sure Twas there at six-with Towser.
 Perhaps was never happier than at that particular time. The universal nature seemed in harmonywith my blissful feelings, The sun shone out bright and clear, so that the fresh morning breezes could scarcely cool lhc pleasant throhhinc of my blood:
