| lCONCLUDED.l

Tt was evening again, and few
months from the above date. Carpia-
gcs drew up in front of the splendid
mansion Of the Burtons, and forms of
light loSS'iness alightcd, and passed
up TO the parlour. leaning on tho arm
Of manhood AMI nobility. 1t was to
be a gay evening, the birth-night of
Mclanthc. Soon all were gathered,
and tho sound of music and song float
cd on tho evening air. Summer was
nearly at it's close, July was passing
into September. Their dwelling stood
in retired court, apart from the noise
and hustle of the city's din. Largo
elm trees grew in front, and sweet
flower garden sent it's thousand per-
fumes to the playful winds. A sum.
mcr house covered with vines, tho Gle.
mats, the jessaminc, and the bright
woodbino, formed sweet retreat
whore Moanthc spent many brooding
hours. The last moon of summer now
shed It's glorious light over every tree
and shrub and flower, and tho interior
of this little fairy grotto was flecked
with lights and shadows. One by one
the guests passed in, along the scrpen-
tine walk round the summer house.
At last came Dr. Burton who brought
in with him stranger, and still not
strauger, for pair of quick eyes fell
on his face and figure, and Melanthe
who sat alono in her retreat musing,
ere she joined tho throng in tho draw
ing-room, knew he was no stranger to
her. sAclanthc went in directly to
her dressing room, and with tailoring
hands found thousand trifling things
to arrange in her toilet, when all was
really arranged in the most beautiful
order; but she dreaded that drawing
room; she dreaded her husbands eye
when he should bring tho stranger to
be introduced to her; most Of all she
thought with the kccncst agony of en-
countcring tho gaze Of Arthur, for this
was he.
Immediately aftcr their parting that
night, he had left for Columbia, being
4 called there suddenly on business. -
They were to have been married in
two months at tho expiration Of
scvcn weeks he returned home, and
on visiting the cottage at Gl, was
surprised by finding it closed and all
silent of the grave, but for the notes
of tho warbling birds and the signing
winds. The nearest ncighbor was
two miles distant. There he rcined
in his horse, and what was his chagrin,
his astonishmcnt and modification
to hear from tho little child that mot
him:

THF LESSON OF THE LILIES.
BY tho clear margin of The pleasant streams,
III pure and pale and pcarly glow,
Row after row,
Like virgins wrapt in hcccy dreams
That cnme and GO
Behold the lilies waving to and fro.
They sing their whispering songs to God
alone,
Touching, with snow crowned diadcm,
Ills garments hem;
They sing as knowing they arc known,
Each lcai and stem
Chants its hoSnnnah that lie cares for them
They labor not, they have not any care;
All light without, they do not sin;
All love within.
They spread white bosoms to tho summer
All peace they win,
And never gricvc, and neither spoil nor
spin,
Their low-voiccd music ripples thro' the
shade,
Like songs that float upon the breeze
From distant seas;
No royal king was yet arrnycd
Like one Of these
Throncd on til. nrcath Of day in murmur'ng
case.
And the night drops down so soft and still,
And hc ding clouds together creep,
They do not weep,
But bend, and close, and wait at will,
In silence deep,
Lulfd by nights patient arms they lie and
sleep.
Could yc but teach this mcckness 10 my

can learn, it is pretty obvious what
they will do this session.

one subject OF reconstruction. The sos

the state Governments by the root, and
put all tho influence Of Office at tho
South on the side Of the Republican
party, so far as it is possible to find men
to take Offices, with Republican opinions.
1t is q stupcndous bid to love of Office
South. Al The offices, from the highest
to the lowest, arc to be vacated, and
stand ready for occupation by all good
Republicans, without particular refer
ancc TO color.
In addition to this provision vacating
Office, additional power will be given to
the registry boards to reject applicants

There will bo no confiscation. Tho
men who arc clamoring for this measure
cannot command the necessary strength
to carry it in Congress- II affairs cons

ORIGIN or GOLD DoMINIoN."-Co
paalivcly few arc aware Of tho origin
Of the term Of "Oll Dominion" which
has SO long and so generally been appli.
cd TO Virginia. 1t originated thus:
During The Protcctoratc Of Cromwell th.
colony Of Virginia refused to actnowl
edge lis authority, and declared itself
Independent. Shortly after, when Crom
well threatened to send fleet and arm
to reduce Virginia TO subjcction, tie
alarmed Virginians sent mcssengcr,t,
Charles II, who was then an exile il,
Flanders, inviting him to return in thr
ship with the messenger and be King of
Virginia. Charles accepted The invita-.
ton, and OH tho eve Of cmbarka-
ton, he was called to tho thronr
Of England. AS soon as he was fairly
seated on his throne, in gratitude for tln
loyalty of Virginia, he caused her coos
OF arms to be quartcrcd with those ol
England, ireland aud Scotland, and aa
independent mcmbor OF the Empire--n
distinct portion Of tho "Old Dominion "
Hence arose the origin Of the tern.
Copper coins Of Virginia was issucd even
as lato as tho reign Of George III, which
bore on one side the coat Of arms cl'
England, Scotland and Virginia.
