Mr.. Mainwell, the gentleman whom Miss

one morning on the piazza, She had sailed
with him along the shore on the moonlight
evenings, and she had danced with him in the
thronged drawing-rooms
Miss Ellsworth was not "a hirt who dis
tributed her ideals among many gentlemen, as
she had her ideal well nigh realized in Mr.
MAXWELL. Only the evening before, their
talk had Withdrawn itself from the general
topic to which each had been congcnial, and
in her admiration of his intelligence and man
illness, she had encouraged an approach to that
personal sort of conversation which relates 10
love and matrimony.
Aud now to find Mr. MAXWELL this morn
ing with his coat of and smiths apron on,
engaged in mending a lock He was doing
it publicly. The lock was on the door that
led to the middle Of the front piazza where
the fashionable ladies and gentlemen were sit
ting or promenading.
His back was towards her as she approached,
leaning on the arm Of her friend, Anna West.
She recognized him, looked inteuty at him,
gave her companion over 10 party OIL young
him
