MARION LESLIE,
The Darkest Hour is Just Before Day.

1t was a lovely morning in june of the
wear 1854, that young girl stood at the
window of an elegant mansion IN Broad
way, New York, with fearful eyes looking
upon the form of her retreating lover.
Marion Leslie (for such was her name)
was the only child of wealthy parents.
Her mother was a lovely woman who had
bestowed upon her daughter all the doting
tenderness of mothers love. Her father,
stern and unreenting, made every will
bow to his own. She had been reared in
the lap of luxury, and was sent at an car
| " age to a boarding school in the city OF
B. She was at this time, tall,
beautiful brunette of seventeen, and there
was something in the timid glance OF her
black eyes, and in her general bearing,
which plainly showed that she was one OF
those sensitive creatures who yearn for
love; and from many of her companions
she received it, for while at school she
formed ardent attachments, one OF which
was with a young girl about her own age
who had never known the blessing OF a
mothers love, having been bercft OF her
tender care at an early age. The name OF
this friend was Lilas Raymond, and with
her many of her leisure hours were spent.
She it was who sympathized with her in
all her sorrow and rejoiced with her in all
her Joys. Lilias had an only brother
whose name was Clarence. lie was tall
and stately, with sunny curls, sparkling
ewes, high, intellectual forehead and q
mouth which expressed great determine
ton, and anything he resolved to do, he
did, if it were possible, no matter at wha
risk or expense.
In the city of b was college
which this young man attended, ant
where he graduated with the highest hon
ors. and then remained in the same city tt
study law,
When returning to his boarding hous
one evening, about dusk, he saw walking
s, before him two young ladies, evidently i
great hurry. One of them he recog
nizcd as his sister, and quickening hi
pace he overlook her, and was Introduce

He accompanied them home, and left thel
with the promise to call soon.
In about a week from this Clarenc
Raymond again made his appearance {
the Seminary. He asked for Lilias an
= Miss Leslie, but as Lilias was somowh'
E indisposed, she declined going down, s
Marion went alone. They spent yer
agreeable evening together he w'
charmed by her gentle manners, and ST
by his superior intelligence. He made a
engagement to call for her the next ev'
ming to take walk with him by the riv'
side if she could gain the consent of h
" teachers.
The next day he thought so much

by GEORGE W. SEARS.

The rcd-wingcd merle from bending spray
With graceful pinions poising,
Pours out liquid roundelay
In iubiant rejoicing:
The cock-grouse drums on sounding log,
The fox forsakes the cover,
The woodcock pipes from fen and bog,
From upland lcas the ployer.
The specllled trout darts up the stream
Beneath the rustic bridges,
While hocks of pigeons glance and gleam
Ger beech and maple ridges:
The golden robin trills his note
Among the nctted shadows,
The hob-o' link, with mellow throat,
Makes musical the meadows.
The pccping frogs with silver bells,
In rhythmical ovation,
Ring out chime Of treble swels
In Joyous graduation
The low of kline is mingling with
The song of lark and sparrow,
And tallow fields are growing blithe
Beneath the plow and harrow.
The moon all night, serene and white,
On lake and stream is glowing.
While ripping fountains seek her light,
Through woodland valley flowing;
And all night long low sweet song
Sweeps o'er the misty hollow,
From marsh and fen, from hill and glen,
From brook, and field, and fa'low.
1t is the time of pleasant things,
When Love makes up his issues,
And hearts well up, like hidden springs,
From rusted cells and tissues
A time to hear at break of day
A silver-chorus' d matin-
A liquid fretwork in crochet
On atmospheric satin.
A time to feast the soul, the eyes,
To watch each bird that passes,
And half surmise that birds are wise,
And men are only asses;
And then TO turn and raise the load,
With weary shoulders bending,
And take the old, we'll beaten road
That lea1s-unto the ending.
