"What does it all mean :" said dear
old Mrs. Green, trembling violently /;
"do you think those men had really q

taken him for some one else 2" "Mary."

who stood behind us as if she required
our protection, "what made you say

again asked. "Yes, ma'am, twice before,
ma'am," replied Mary. I made no
observation to her, but dismissed
her to her work, and closed the
door. What was to be done? Mrs.
Waters was almost ready to faint;
Miss Green Indignantly refused to be-
lieve that anything was really wrong /;
she was sure some one else was in

such hope; my suspicious had been
awakened, and now a veil seemed all at
once to drop from my eyes. Mr., Raven
sunk in a moment from the literary
lion to the clever swindler. Why else
had he told Mary to deny him Why
had he else enjoined silence as to his
authorship Why had John Walters
looked so grave when confded to him
the secret7 Where were his relationsY
And then came the idea, was it he that
had stolen the salver just before he paid
his debts9 These thoughts flashed
like lightning through my brain, but
as yet | did not venture to put them
into words. In short time Mr.. Waters
would be in, and advise us what to do.
"But suppose" said Mrs. Green,
"Charles should come in first. What
must be done1" / advised in that case
to take no notice Of what had occurred
until the others returned shut we are
pretty sure he and Fanny will not be in
a hurry"
AS may be supposed, we four ladies

did not cease, and Mrs. Waters heard
much more than she before knew about
our connection with Mr.. Raven. We

another ring, but this time not so i'm.

afraid to go to the door. So /, who
had apparently received an extra amoun
of courage for the occasion, went myse

piled, "but if you will walk in, dom

Sleeping so peacefully,

Pleasantly, cheerily
Sparkled aud shone;
Ewes that all tesrfully,

Viewed the unknown.

Prattled at will
Prattled untiringlv,

Listening still.
Mouth that appealingly,
Touchingly, feelingly
Trouble did tell
Mouth which so speedily,
Laughing right readily,
Rang like bell;
Lips wherein cosiness,
Beauty, and rosiness
Sweet kisses hide;
Lips where disdainfully,
Pettishly, painfully
Passion did bide;
Hands that, all beautiful,
Teachable, dutiful.
Fondled and PLAYED ;
Hands that so skillfully,
Secretly, willfully,
Law disobeyed;
Feet that so lightsomely,
Tripingly. blithsomely
Sported and danced;
Feet whose swift cheeriness
Wore into weariness
AS they advanced;
All nesting gracefully,
Slumbering peacefully
Are you tonight;
Quietly, trustfully,
Silently, restfullv
Awaiting the light.

And dearest attraction,
Fairest that lives
In sleep so beautiful,
All that's undutiful
Mother iorgives.
Now rest the securely,
Sleeping so purely,
My darling, my dove!
Gods angels descending,
About thee attending,
Keep thee in love.
