nor hopeful, not they. The scheme was
abominable, and no aspect in which it
could be presented rendered its abomina-
ton less; they were hopeless and help
less and oppressed, and there was the
end of it.
Poor Mrs. Smith wished it might be
the end, or anywhere near the end; for
the soul within her was evoked with
strife and broken in pieces with words.
The general could-and did-escape the
rhetorical consequences of his unpopular
measure, but his wife could not; no clue
afforded her its welcome refuge, no
''down town" offered her sanctuary.
She was obliged to stay at home and en-
dure it all. Norma's sulks, Blanche's
tears, the rapture of the boys-hunger-
ing for novelty as boys only can hunger
the useless and trivial suggestions of
friends, the minor arrangements for the
move, the decision on domestic questions
present and to come, the questions, an
swers, futile conjectures, all formed
murk through which she labored, striv-
ing to please her husband and her chill
dren, to uphold authority, quell mutiny,
soothe murmurs and sympathize with
enthusiasm; with a tact which shamed
diplomacy and patience worthy of al
evangelist.
After the indulgent American custom,
she earnestly desired to please all of her
children. In her own thoughts she ex-
listed only for them, to minister to their
happiness; even her husband was, uncon-
sciously to her, quite of secondary inn
portance, his strongest present claim to
consideration lying in his paternity. Had
it been possible, she would have raised
her tent and planted her fig tree in the
spot preferred by each one of her chill
dren, but as that was out of the ques-
ton, in the mothers mind of course her
sons came first. And this preference
must be INDUCED the more particularly

her idol and her grief-was slowly, well
nigh imperceptibly, but none the less
surely, drifting away from her. A boy

CHAPTER |.

When the idea of a removal to Vir-
ginia was first mooted in the family of
General Percival Smith, ex-brigadier in
the United States service, it was re-
ceived with CONSERVATION and a perfect
storm of disapproval. The young ladies,
Norma and Blanche, rose as one woman
loud in denunciation, vehement in pro-
test-fell upon the scheme, and verbally
sought to annihilate it. The country!
A farm!! The soulful! The idea was
untenable, monstrous. Before their out
ragged vision foated pictures whereof the
foreground wasShideous with cows and
snakes and beetles; the middle distance
lurid with discomfort, cornbread and
triweekly mails: the background lower
ing with solitude, ennui and colored
servants.
Rusticity, nature, sylvan solitudes,
and all that were exquisite bound in
Russia, with gold lettering and tinted
leaves; wonderfully alluring viewed at
leisure with the gallery to ones self, and
the light at the proper angle, charmingly
attractive behind the footlights, but in
reality!-to the feeling of these ladies it
could be best appreciated by those who
had been born to it. In their opinion,
they themselves had been born to some
thing vastly superior, so they rebelled
and made themselves sdisagreeable;
hoping to mitigate the gloom of the
future by intensifying that of the present.
Their mother, whose heart yearned
over her offspring, essayed to comfort
them, casting daily and hourly the bread
of suggestion and anticipation on the
unthankful waters, whence it invariably
returned to her sodden with repinings.
The young ladies set their grievances up
on high and bowed the knee; they were
not going to be comforted, nor pleased,

This was done. The tailor was de-
