CHAPTER II.

Iva was right Fenelon Randolph was
generous and noble, by nature; but he
was not an angel, and as only such an
earth-free individual, can resist the injuri-
Gus influence of early training, and life
long education, We must not judge too
harshly the faults of our young friend
He was selfish, tis true, but this ever to be
deprecated Ingredient in his character, was
not nearly so much the offspring of that
contemplate love of self, and selfish en-
joyments, incident to little natures, as it
was of an entire forgetfulness or it may
be of ignorance, of another's feelings and
sensibilties, for as Iva has said, in his
training, he himself, Master Fsnel9n Ran
dolph, had been the one important per-
sonage, the one ever to be regarded the
one whose wants and wishes must ever be
attended to, let what would be the con-
sequences to others indeed, the "con-
sequences to Others" so far from being
taken into consideration, were carefully
concealed, by the overweening love of the
doting mother and servants-mother,
servants, all we're but waiting to bow
abjectly to every whim of this household
majesty Nor when he left his mothers
roof, for college halls, did this idea of
supremacy suffer downfall, for there, too,
did he reign regally, with his crown of
genius, and sceptre of eloquence. And
when out from this influence, he made his
first advent into his uncles home, and
found there being young and lovely,
ready and waiting, it would seem, to throw
herself, soul and being, into his arms, is
it strange that he mistook this feeling of
flattered pride, for youths first love2 and
sued humbly for the privilege of calling
her his own? And when this boon was
granted by heart all too young and un-
sophisticated to conceal its joyousness at
the acceptance, can we wonder that that
enthusiastic admiration, too often constru-
Gu ny V'uoiJ ou' aias "o' Nisoi "eausi
into feeling of deep and unalterable at
tachment; seconded, too, by the hearty
approval of the young girls father, should
have led him to bind that young life to
his own, in Hymen's inexorable thrall ?
deemed all too uoxpressive a symbol Of
their internal union, And when he
folded her in his arms, and imprinted the

Great warriors of their vigourto repress, 80
And mighty hands forget their manlness.
Drawn with ihe power Of an heart-robbIng eye
And wrapt in letters Of glossy tress." s'i aI
Already in our acquaintance with Fen
elon Randolph, have we observed his ten.
dency to individual engrossment-the alb
sorbtion of his mind in one subject. This
too, may be attributed to the education, in
which the presentpleasure, was sought, and
INDUCED, and regardless alike Of cotemt
poraneous duties, and future iucouvenien-
ces and while VIC must censure, let us en-
deavor to do so with L n ency. Thus days
and nights passed, Randolph knew not how
many, so enwrapt was he in this enchant-
ing dream, into which he admitted no con-
fdent, no adviser. The musical entertain
ments had ceased but still each fashion
able gathering, the ball, the rout, the sol
rec, was sure Of one attendant, in our young
barrister, not a participator indeed, but a
beholder, and beholding but one object,
eyes for but one face heart and soul for
but one emotion. But this, like all other
dreams, whether waking or sleeping, must
have an end, the awaking up to the reality
of the hopelessness, Of such delusion.
And thus shall fall the retribution, for thy
many tears, sweet Linnie. vy

open a window, that the cool air Of m,fp-

leaned forward to drink in the refreshing
draughts, the sweet breath offowers, which
from neighboring conservatory were send
ing up their matin incense Of praise to
Heaven, brought back so yiyidly the re-
mcmbrance Of his dream, that hastily clos
ing the easement, he retreated to another
room. In vain did he seek, amid his &C.
customed tasks, forgetfulness of his sorrow
but the musty tones, in retaliation of his
late neglect, refused utterly to WELD their
power in his behalf, and hiding their in
terest from sight, presented only dry and
tasteless forms and illustrations. Discour-
aged with the useless attempt, he would
close the volume and resign himself TO
hopeless melancholy. "The heavy hours

CHAPTER III.

Eight years, from the day upon which
Amelin Mcleod offered up her name and
identity, willing sacrifice upon the altar
of love: another fair daughter of that
house, launched her light bark upon the
uncertain sea of matrimony I; but by her
side sat man as gallant and true, as ever
steered clear of shoal, or breaker. ... oi
Never did our young friend, Iva, wear
a lovelier, or Philip Olmsted nobler as
poet, than upon this their bridal night, and
never was there a gayer company than was
here assembled; joy and gladness seemed
to be the badge of the evening, and music
and mirth reigned supreme uarar..5

strangely contrasting with his large brown
eyes, which seem to glow and expand,
with his interest in his subject, until you
seem to see nothing, but those glorious
eyes, and hear nothing, but the continu-
Gus flow of eloquence, from those thin
quivering lips. His voice is low, but clear
and distinct catching and fastening the
attention almost without the knowledge of
his hearers, and happy, indeed, is the
criminal, who can secure his interest in
his behalf All Iva you'd never think
while looking at that mans face, that he
possessed heart capable Of SO heinious a
crime, as the one you have just portrayed !
Surely!" he added after pause, "surely,
there must be some other way of account
ing for it, than by attribptipg it to igno-
bility of soul" 1. sias ,di
The young man spoke warmly, for he
had been strangely drawn towards the
man, upon whose eloquence he had hung
cntranccd during the last sitting of the
court of which he was member. For a
few moments they sat in silence, then the
conversation assumed character more
interesting by far to themselves, than it
would prove to a third person. -Da
