Iheard regularly from him during the winter,
his letters being dated from "The Grove" az
frequently as from his chambers; but could
only infer from their general tone that affairs
were progressing hopefully. One morning.
however, in the following spring, upon enter

proprieters in close attendance upon young
man, whol was standing with an open jewel
case before him, and giving minute directions
for the resetting of some magnificent pearls

And so Jennie Hamilton, without beauty,
or style, or fortune, married my admired and
petted cousin; and from that day to this he
has uttered fervent thanksgivings that the
lovable home side of womanhood was revealed
to him before he had been captivated by mere
outside show, or had become too old to accept
the deep and lasting happiness which it never
fails to yield.

MEDITERRANEAN CoRAL.--The finest and
most beautiful coral is found in different
parts of the Mediterranean, and particu-
larly in the Bay of Naples, and on the
coast of Sardinia. 1t is almost exclusively
obtained by diving and the circumstance
that the coral branches shoot dog H% GyA
into the sea from the rocks to which they
are attached, Gas tree is attached to the
ground or as mistletoe is to tree facili-
tates the operations of the divers, who
thus are able with ease to detach the coral
from its hold. These Mediterranean coral
branches, which constitute the precious
ccHl of commerce, differ altogether from
the coral that builds up the reef islands Of
the Pacific. While the reefcoral rises up
with marvellous growth from the depths
of the profound ocean, ever adding to its
own wave washed circuit, the coral branch,
clinging as with roots to the rocks, droops
dOwRwards- and remains still pendant
branch. We have examined these beau
tiful "branches" very infinitely, and we
confess We incline to believe them verita-
bly, to be Observation-Disclosures of vegeta-
BILE growth. What has their ramification
in common with any animal organization,
and in what does it differ from any other
branching plant? And then, how exactly
does the broken or cut branches show the
tree structure-the central column and it's
encircling rings! Why, if an animal de-
Posit, is there in every twig this vegetable
structure? Possibly, after all, the old
Greek legend may have more truth in it
than had been suspected al along; the
coral may prove to have been plants once,
long ago; and some external influence may
have effected these graceful branchesand
given to them new character; and be-
cause marine insects both build up reefs
and encrust coral branches, philosophers
may have arrived by a single bound at the
conclusion that whatever was called coral
was a cognate calcareous substance, form
ed entirely by species Of marine polypi-
