his situation in life'h hitherto
rendered him unconscious of so wall

70 Seeing Harriet only at meals,
and absorbed in his ambitious
schemes, Harwood at last almost

poor girl strove to content herself

In dreamless, careless rest, "t -
She mingled sometimes with the
gay; but society had no excitement
for a mind like hers. She could
not long enjoy a conversation in
which her heart was not in some
way interested. For while the
poetry of feeling was her element,
Harriet was not an intellectual per-
son-she was more spiritual than
intellectual-herhe rheartsuppliedt the
place of a mind.
One evening, alta party, a young
English officer approaching Har-
wood exclaimed, "My dear sir! do
you know, can you tell me the
name of that beautiful creature
leaning by the window? There,
that pale, dark-eyed girl in white!
You ought to know, for she has
been locking at you, with her
whole soul in the look, for the last
five minutes"

CHAPTER V.

For three months, Harwood was
a devoted lover and husband, and
Harriet was happy in his love:
but he could not all at once, and
forever, forego the glorious dreams
of his youth-and by degrees he
returned to his political duties
and grew gradually stately ant
cold, and apparently Indifferent al
before.

Mr.. William Harwood was a most
unfeeling person. But that was
by no means the case. He had
been, from childhood, SO devoted
to intellectual pursuits, tn a t

to think of love. Had his good

that moment, that his beautiful

that her full heart waiting

he would have given itas IN honor

never thought Of it before; but the,
