whatever cost to marry him. She had nc
scruples of conscience, and, by degrees, in an
apparently inadyertent manner She hinted
tnat Stella was coquette, false hearted, and
trifier with the hearts of men. But she
was SO cautious, so guarded, that he received
the impression, when at the same time. he
could not have told, in what way. He did
not believe this, of course, but still the idea
had been presented to his mind, and it was
destined to bring forth much unhappiness.
But suddenly Hubert was called home by
his invalid father, to visit one of the South
ern Stsses where he owned extensive proper
ty, and which was in extreme danger of being
entirely lost, unless he or his son would i'm.
mediately hasten thither So Hubert was
compelled to go, without seeing Stella again,
or even hearing from her. This rendered
him unhappy, and when he reached his des-
tination, and found that several months would
eiapse ere he could return, he determined to
pen her the sentiments of his heart, and ask
ner to become his bride. He could not wait
longer, for that soily hint had made its i'm
presslon, and caused him pneasiness. There
fore he wrote her, and entreated an early re-
ply to his communication, as ''impatience and
suspense would well nigh drive him mad, till
ne received reply" But he was not graft
LED. Day after day he eagerly sought the
expected missive, but in vain 1t never came.
80 we must leave him now, dear reader, to
transact his business and see how Stella
pears ms long absence from her side.

A Correspondent of one of our EXCHANGES
says, the impression that some of our Order
seem to have taken in regard to giving pecu-
niarily to promote the advancement of this
cause is, that it is work of faith, labor of
love- and that is all that Unnecessary to carry It
en-. Suppose every reformed brother were to
give onefourth of the amount he formerlv
spent for drink to advance the cause of Tenn
perance-what mighty change we should
seei Our adversaries do not act thus when
necessary, they give literally to protect their
pet from our efforts to injure it. And wbv

our money freely to have Temperance mat.

State Suppose every brother were to give
according to his abiliy-what results wonld
follow? This monster evil would begin to
totter to its base. Is penuriousness either
moral or right in this matter? No, friends.
it is not. Come then, with your wealth and
help US in this matter. An obligation rests
upon every one of US to DO something. 10
