LETTEIIY FROM A FItESIDE.

Last Wednesday, afternoon, ] sat sew
ing by the window Of the dining room
= cold, gray cloud was settling over the
distance, clothing with a solemn purple
the weird and far-off forests. Closer and
closer came the clasp of the chilling mist,
until felt my spirit shivcr in its death
like embrace. The fire burnt low on the
hearth; the only sound was the low click
of the falling ashes. Sad, and still, and
mournful was the hour and season, redo
lent of death. Strange shapes rose
around me from the almost forgotten
past "reminiscences OF the tears, each
drop coming back perfect, a chrystal
sphere of grief. People talk much of
,he pleasures of memory of living over
past delights-forgetting that one ruined
hour, one harsh word to the loved and
lost, can embitter the memory of thou
sand years. Growing sadder over my
meditative work, sat until was ronsed
from my dream by the loud and cheerful
baying Of dogs. Looking from the win
dow, l saw a rider hitching his rens to
the deer antler that was fastened in one
Of our old post-oaks. Wrapped, though
he was, in shaggy overcoat, with his
soft hat slouched over his face, one glance
was sufficient to frighten away all my
gloomy thoughts. Not caring for the
drizzlng rain, was out of the front door
in an instant, and Drawing the dangers of
many pool and slippery foot-hold, ran
to my brother. His hounds met me half
way, with many a playful bound and
Joyous bark, and then escorted me back
to him. Not waiting to witness the meet
ing, they returned to the open door, and
rushed in. Excellent messengers! just
as Walter had fairly lifted me in his
arms and carried me over the wet ground,
all the family were waiting for us in the
porch. Oh the confusion ofjoy and vel
come 1t was pleasant to see how the
children rushed from one to another, as
if we were all new arrivals. My brother
stood with rain drops, not tears, falling
over his manly face, and adding dia-
mond brilliancy to his smiles. | heard
Poscy's happy voice among the Others
and was surprised to hear her confding
her gladness to Mr.. Mays sympathy
indeed he was the only one calm enough
to listen to her. We left the porch and
entered the hall, Walter all dripping, and
looking like some great human New
foundland, just out of a river He had
only been gone month, but without him
few weeks seem like ages of ordinary
time. You would only have to see my
brothers frank, warm face, his sparkling
eyes and open brow, to know that he is
our life and pride. In all that our noble
Southern youths are most skillful and
daring, he is first and best. Often have
l seen him bit the mark with his Misss.

A few nights ago an adventurer, evil
IDENTIFY not leader of the fashions, rung
the bell of one of our citizens, who, on
opening the door, was met by the ques-
ton, in low tone, "whether Mrs.

be the citizens wife; therefore it was
natural that he should ask the stranger
what his business was with his charger
half. Not that he had any painful sus-
picions, but he wanted to know. He
was informed that about year ago the
stranger had called and received " assist
ance" from the lady, and that, being on
his annual visit to the city, he was "min-
ded" to call again on similar errand.-
But he failed in bis object. This time
he was drunk.
