that the spring had come, he found it very
convenient to drop in at 'Rosebank to taste
of their early asparagus and hot-house fruit.
At such times his manner was more than
friendly towards Star. Itwas so tender as to
embarrass her. She liked him-yet she
did not fully love him. There were times
when the sound of his voice set her heart
auttering-then again look in her face

talked of him ceaselessly; praised his traits
of character, and dwelt particularly on the
splendor of his superb establishment. Why,
he had horses valued at thousands! These,

CHAPTER XXI.
DORA'S OFFER.

Wouldn't you like to know how?'
Poor little Star! Her heart had been
aching while she watched Dora's white fin
gers fitting over the keys. Only year
ago, and her anticipations had been so
bright. Music she had always passionately
loved. She possessed a charming voice,
which the daughter of their old western
pastor had trained with some degree Of
skill. She remembered how often she had
wished for piano-forte, the promise her
father had made, the delight she had felt,
and her heart leaped as the question was
put by Dora, wouldn't you like to know
how? !?
Yes indeed, was the reply, she sighing
and smiling little.
Dora sat, idly lingering, casting about in
her mind how she should broach the sub.
ject proposed by Mr.. Carlisle, and through
her husband, to her.
I've great mind to teach you,' said
Dora.

iety, the care, the trouble. I couldn't con-

as if struck with bright thought. There's

want you to study, because am sure yon

while you listen. Only promise me not to
fall in love with Mr.. Bristol-for he is the
handsomest man =
Star was overwhelmed with gratitude.
To her mind, the suggestion and the offer
were made in pure kindness, and she
thought she had never seen so kind and
disinterested a spirit before-forgetting that
little affair of the locked chamber.
The handsomest man, proved to be al
most a monster of ugliness, Uld and marri-
ed ; but he found in Star so ready and do
cile pupil, and took so much pains with
her, that her success was more than CON-
mensurate with the expectations of her
friends.
Every day Star grew lovelier. Her in
tellect had now opportunities which for
years it had longed for; new world seem
ed opening before her. 1t had been ar-
ranged that the teacher of the seminary was
to take her as private pupil, and under
the tuition of so accomplished an instruc-
tor, Star made most astonishing progress.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Carlisle and Mark took
long journeys together into the interior of
the State and to the west, always returning
in high spirit and with the story of success.
For the first time, Star had thrown aside
her deep mourning, but more to crafty the
wishes of the imperious Dora, than her own
inclination. In everything she allowed
Dora to have her way, and certainly the
glisteuing, delicate fabric which she had
caused to be made for Stars spring dress,
became the sweet, now thoughtful face,
much more than the dull uniformity she

A PLEASANT "REMINISCENCES.

There are (says the correspondent of
the Knickerbocker) many interesting asso-
Citations connected with Mackinac, which
was visited by Hennepin and other French
missionaries nearly two centuries ago. The
following incident was related to me by a
gentleman formerly of the army, who was
we'll acquainted with the old chief, and the
spot pointed out to me where his wigwam
once stood: During the last war many Of
the Indians on the northern frontier offered
their sevices othe United States but from a
mistaken policy, the government declined
the offer. Many of the tribe, therefore,
joined the British. Ne-gwa.gon, the fam.
ous Chippewa chief, however, remained
steadfast friend, and, as far as permitted,
took up the tomahawk for the Americans.
"When the enemy had taken possession
of Mackinac, the old chief, with his band,
retired to bis hunting on the main land
he planted the American flag in his camp
in the woods. One day, while his band
we're mostly absent engaged n the chase,
q British officer and fifteen men presented
themselves before the lodge of Ne-gwa-gon
and said. I have come to take away that
flag. It is the American flag, and must
not fly here. The British alone now OVID
this country '
The old chief rose and strobe forward to
bis flag, lowered it, and winding it around
his left arm, drew his tomahawk from his
belt, and turning to the officer with flashing
eyes, sternly ysaid NE gwa-gon is the friend
of the Americans; he has but one flag and
one heart. If you take one, you shall take
the other
Then giving his war-whoop, be looked
silently at the officer, who seeing the war
riors assembling around their chief, thought
"discretion the better part Of valor,' and re-
turned to Mackinac. The brave old Chip.
pewa chief hoisted the flag, and kept it fly
ing until the end of the war. For many
years Ne.gwa-gop, with his family, aunu-
ally went to Detroit, in two large and beau
tiful bark canoes, with the stars and stripes
flying at the stern of each, and was always
kindly received by our present venerable
Secretary of State, General Cass.

CHAPTER Xxx.
MR.. CARLISLE IN LOVE

At the tea-table, Star met Mr.. Carlisle
again. He seemed to exert all his powers
to entertain his host. Star acknowledged
to herself that his CONVERSATION was de-
lightful; and even that his beauty was
very imposing, save when the large, dark
eyes turned toward her. Then she read as
in mirror, that under their polished sur,
face, lay selfshness and coldness. She
felt there was no soul there, no innocence,
nothing spiritual; that worldliness and sen.
suality, and the love of gain, had eaten uE
his heart
Dora had plucked white rose from
her fower-stand and placed it amid the
soft locks that framed Stars gentle face
She was more than ever conscious that
night, as she stole look at herself before
coming down stairs, that she was very
beautiful. Perhaps the unconfessed salts
faction that she had appeared to advantage
in Mr.. Carlisle's estimation, lent a brighter
bloom to her fair cheek, richer lustre tc
her eye.
When they adjourned to the drawing
room, Dora was anxious for a walk. The
evening was somewhat cool, but the moon
was up, and the glowing river leaped tt
its light-the white sails glittered like sill
yer; while from rock to rock, crept lus
trous fame, tinted, and the trees nod
ded to tremulous stars that seemed to shoo
in and out among their branches.
Dora brought two white mantles.
Here, STAR Mr.. Carlisle, do be kint
enough to throw that over her head ane

noticing Stars sudden shrinking back, o.
the depreciation in her glance.

FRESH A1R.-Giye your children plenty
of fresh air. Let them snuff it until it
sends the rosy current of life dancing joy
fully to their temples. Air is soseheap,
and so good, and so necessary withal, that
every child should have free access to it.
Horace Mann beautifully says: That
short allowance of fresh air to children
is as it would have been for Noah, during
the deluge, to have put his family on
short allowance of water. Since God has
poured out an atmosphere of fifty miles
deep, it is enough to make miser weep to
see our children stinted in breath.
