!" Hibernicus" has clambered out Of the
moat of Aummery into which he wildly
rushed, crept under whitethorn hedge,
and covered his face with bundle of
Esop's fables; while "Norah's Sweet
heart" has thrown his blackthorn stick
into the bog of Allen, scampered off to a

Now, that the Battle of the Ball is over,
let me say word or two to the fair
daughter of Derry: Norah, acushla,
why don't you renew the good old custom
of your grandmother, and get up an Irish
Tea Party2 What a joyful thing it would
be to have your Sweetheart sitting by
your side, slipping young Tyson, while
you poured into his ear the sweet melody
of Dhrimin Dhu Dheeish; and what
happiness it would be to him, after
softening his throat with the Chinese
beverage, to relate to you the romantic
story of Couple BaWn Nc Combat, which
is more interesting and droller by far
than Byron's unique story of Mazeppd.
Try it, my colleen and if you could
by any means borrow griddle to
bake a slim cake, well sprinkled with
caraway seeds, the feast would have
coloring of antiquity that would add
greatly to its glory. Besides, macour-
neen, there is the St. Patrick's Temper
ance Society, whose members would be
highly delighted at the reception of an
invitation to such festival; the Sodal-
ity boys, / believe, would be glad to join
in the emptying of cups that, as teeto-
talers say, inebriate mott; and the
whole assembly might sing in chorus
Norah, put the kettle on, we'll all take
tea. Suppose, aric, you hold this Tea
Party on Easter Monday evening, when
Lent is over, don't you suppose all the
boys and girls Of Milesian, Danish, Nor

the little brook, thinking sadly of "hours
that were"
TO this place Ella now bent her steps,
She walked slowly and silently through the
forest, with her eyes fixed upon the ground.
Sometimes she stopped to pick wild flower
or gather few ripe blackberres, and once
she broke the stillnes of the old woods by
singing in q sweet though rather mournful
voice beautiful Scotch ballad, which caused
the birds to respond to her music from their
leafy nests, while the timid rabbits fed
trembling and frightened from their messy
coverts.
AS Ella neared her destination, the shadow
Of man fell across her pathway. She glanc-
ed up, somewhat startled, for he had not an
nounced his presence by speaking, but by
stepping directly in the pathway in front of
her When she looked up the intruder was
regarding her ntently with happy, joyful
expression of countenance. 1t was Albert
Sloan. Ella knew him instantly despite his
long hair, full beard and sun-burned cheeks.
She controlled herself with a strong effort,
and held forth her hand and responded to his
greeting in a calm yet cordial tone, in which
not the least quaverng could be detected. -
She seldom lost her selfpossession now.
For moment neither spoke, and Ella felt
her situation becoming embarrassing. Then
her lover broke the silence.
Ella he murmured gently, Il know all.
Your sister Rosa has acquainted me with the
falsehood which caused you to refuse me six
weary years ago. When left you then l
never expected to see you again; but chang
ed my mind during my absence, and l have
returned to my native village once more. !

pared to happiness? And, Ella, | can never
be happy without you. You rejected my
proposal ofmarriage once-what is your de-
cislon now?
He paused and almost held his breath, as
he waited anXlously for an answer.
Albert, IL
She could not articulate farther, but he
OWNED her answer, and casped her to his
breast, where she lay for few moments, al
most in swoon from excess Of Joy.
The next day their engagement was known
| throughout the village, and many were the
eXclamations of surprise and disappointment
which it called forth.
Elias cousin, Alice Goodwin, was especi-
ally disappointed, for she had tie good for
| tune to be introduced to Mr.. Sloan at the
house Of mutual friend upon the evening of
his arrival, and since then she had entertain.
ed hopes of ensnaring him, and eventually
| becoming his wife, but now she was COM
! PEELED to give up the hope.
One week later Albert and Ella were mar
ried; and although Alice Goodwin was con
| siderably disappointed at the time, she got
over her disappointment sufficiently to marry
q young man, Elbridge Mansfield by name,
| who had for long time been among her train
| Of sutors.
