THE PLACE TO DIE.
The lovcliest place of foreign lands
Is not ibc spot to ilie,
For can its gales e'er waft ihc soul
Safe upvrard to the sky 1
Alihough its sccnes be fair and bright
With everj' radianl lme,
And evcry beauty linscis tliere
To tempt me to the victv;
Yct all those charms to me were vain,
For friends were far away,
The air, the Iight, yea all were strange
Near which to blend with clay.
So lonely there the wanderer's way,
And sad his dying bcd,
'Twere agony and deepest woe
To mingle with the ilead.
For glowing thoaghts of cherished oncs
Across my breast would steal,
And early childhood's peaceful home
Its joys afresh revcal.
Nor would the deserl's boundless lands
E'er safe receive the dead :
Oh, who on thal lone spot would wish
To lay his aching head I
Nor would it be the place to die
Oa Ocean's restlcss wave,
'Tirould rack thcbrain and faint the hcart
To find e'en thcre a grave.
But, Oh ! il would be sweet to die
Within our ovrn bright glen,
Within the sound of Sabbath bell,
Andspring to life again.
And none but friends should gathcrnear
To close my fading cyes,
.And vicw my cor.qr.cst over dcath,
My passsge to thc skies.

'And ycl,'said shc, when shc had finishcd,
looking up in Elvira's fare, 'rorallshc was

Lucilla, who could not help pitying Miss
Belmont, in whose countcnance fcclings of
shame, amounting almost to airony, were ac-
pictcd, succecdexl in addrcssing ihc poor
giri, wnu Wtiy pvriuuny llisuusiuiu oi uic rci-
ributivc pain shc was inflicling, in a sooth
ing, conciliatory manner, to prevail on her
to rclcaec hcr reluctant auditor.
'I hope,' said Aliss Belmont to Lucilla, af
ier somcwhat rccovering her sclf-posscssion,
'that you will not be so ungencrotisas tosulT
crthc ravings ofamaniacto influence your
opinion concerning me. It is true I owehcr
for work, and that she callcd ycsterday for
hcr pay, whcn I happencd to be lolally un
prcparcd, but I promiscd to pay hcr next
wcek, and shc would have found mc as good
asmy promisc'
Miss Belmont had thc disccrnmcnt to scc,
at oncc, thal hcr explanation failed to rcin
slate her in Lucilla'sgood opinion, and, say
ing Eomething about hcr ncrvcs being unc
qual to bear such a srenc, shc coldly badc
her good morning, and left lhe house.
Shc had been gonc onlya shorl limc, whcn
somc one rappcd at thcdoor, which, on be
ing opcncd, Lucilla found to bc Adaline
Bradford.
'I am rauch plcascd to mcct you herc.'said
Adaline, 'for you may be able to tell me
whether it will be Iikcly to wound Miss Alli
son's feelings to offer hcr a fetydollnrs, wilh
out requiring her lo sew for it in return.'
'Your aid will be very acceplible,' rcplied
Lucilla, 'ihough, unfbrtiinalely, Miss Alli
son is inscnsiblcto what mightcilhcrwound
or give hcr pleasure,'
'She cannot bc dead,' said Adaline, siart- j
ing.
'No, but shc is in a burning fever, and to
tally deprived of rcason. But howcame you
to know that she necdcd pecuniaiy nid V
'She called at Elvira Bflmont's the other
day when 1 was there, and I inferred from
her appearance and what she said, that shc
was not only inindigent circumstances, but
aciually sufl'cringfromprivatiop. Unfortun
ately I had partcd wilh all my money except
a trifling sum, to purchase a ball dress and
several ornaments morc expensivc thanl
could well aflbrd. Onc of thcse, a beautiful
bracclet, Elvira coveted the momcnt she saw
it, Bollether have it for eighteen dollars
thciamelgave forit onc hairor ihich I
intend TorMiss Allison, the other for a poor
widowl happened to meet with last evening.
Bnt you will bcgin to think I don't pay much
attention to that portion of scriplure which
forbids us, when we do alms, lo sound thc
trumpct beforc us. The truth is, Lucilla,
when I am with you, it always scems as if I
was in ihe prescnce ofa sister.and I fecl sure
tkat you willnol impute my telling you to
motices of vanity.'
'I wisli von wnrn mr sislp.r ' said T.iieiIIn
'and I think you will bc one day.' Thi3 re-1
mark brought acrimsonglow to ihccheek of i
Adaline, which did nol fiide at lhe appear
ance of Herbert Lester, who, at thalmoment,
camc in view, and approached the dror-step '
where they slood. Afler greeling Adaline
with much polilcncss, hc inquircd ofhissis- '
ter lor Elvira
" She has been gone this half-hour." she
phed. "Sonie more convenient opportu- i

Though it was a painful duly to disclose !
to hcr brother lhe uufecling and selfUh con-j
duct of Elvira Belmont, itwas one which Lu- !
cilla felt bound to perfpnn, and, simply stat- !
ing thc facts, he left him to draw bis own
imcrcnccs.
Iiifivcorsix days Miss Allison's discase
had performcd its criiis, and the phsiciaii
pronnunccd her out of dauger. As soon as
this waslhe case, Lucilla, assistedby Adaline,
comincnced carrjing iulocffecta plan uhich
had bceu formcu for her bcneht. lNeat and .
convenient apartmcuts were taken fo her in j

but cruel, to dclay paying the hard camings
of the lnborcr, of whatevcrclass, whcn it was
iu their powcr to pay, promiscd to give hcr
iheir sctting. The hctier prospect nhich
thus dawned upon her.contribuled to the rcs
toratiou ofher hcalth, and nt thc expiration
ofa few weeks she, with Edwin aud Lctty,
took posscssiou of their new abodc. Sho
fouud not thc least difficulty, now that shc
was promptly paid, to procure a comfortable
subsisteuce for herself and ihem.wiihoul work
ing at unscasouablc houis. She even found
leisure to devolc an evening, now and then,
lo the friciids whose e.xcrtioos had so cfTec
tually araelioratcd hcrsiluaiion in a manner
that suffered her to live indcpcndeut of char
ity. Miss Lester, hcr brother, and Adaline, had
droppcd in onc plcasant but coldevcuiug.and
were cujoyiiig the coinfort of a good fire and
lhe pleasuro of an iutcrcsting couversalion,
when a quick, smart rap was heard at the door,
which Miss Lester rcmarkcd had a sound of
impatieiice in it.
"bhall 1 go to the uoor, jiiss Alhsoiw
said Hcrbcrt Lester.
" 1 am obliged to you," she replied, "but
asit is probably some one who has brought
me woik, I had bettcrgo msclf-"
" Is Miss Allison at honic!" they heard
a voice inquirc.
"My name is Allison," she rcplicd.
"Will you pcrmit me to come iu!" said
hc: "Ihave some imporlant intelligcncc to
coinmuiiicate."
Shc, of coursc, assented, and the next mo
mcnt a man. somcn hat ahovc thc middling
height, wrappcd iu a cloak which was so dis
poscd as to inufllethc lowcr part of his f.icc,
white a cap couccalcd his forchcadand cyes,
cutcrcd the apartmcnt. Having arrivcd a
bout mid-way, he chatiged his voice to bis
natural touc, as hc said
" Emily, do you not know me J"
The name of Edgar Tracy burst from hcr
lips as she spruug towards him, but failiug to
rcach thc anus upcu to receive hcr, shc fell
athis fect in a snooin. Throwing from him
his cloak, hc kuclt down and supported her,
white Lucilla and Adaline admiuislcrcd thc
proper rciucdics; lhe young slrangcr, iu thc
mean timc, biticrly rcproachiug hiiuself for
h:s want of cousidcratiou. She soon rccov
crcd, nnd lhe rcmainder of ihc CTeuing was
speut in listcuiug to thc peiiU and escapcs of
Tracy, who, as may ue surnnscu, was ttie ne
trolhed lovcr of Emily Allison, who, she be
licvcd, had longsince found a gravc buueath
thc wavcs of thc occan.
Hc aud two othcrs. he informcd lliem, Icft
thc wrcck in a small boat. Both of his cotn
pauions pcrislicd, but hc was nt Ivngth taken
up by a vessel bclouging to Europc, bouud
on a voyagc lotomeof ilicSoutliSealslamls.
Hcrc, iu consequencc of a long and sevcre
illncss.induced probably by lhe injury sustain
cd from hungcr and cxposure while on lhe
wrcck and in lhe boat, he was obliged lo re
main aml sufTcr lhe vessel to sail without
liim. Hc was cvcr uuable lo write a Icttcr
to his friends. though he cavc thc cnptain thc
addrcssof Mr. Allison, who proinUcd lo for
ward a line thc first opportunity afterhis arri
val. As no such letler was ever icccivcd,
hc nrobably iorcot to pcrform bis proiniscs.
As thc wrcckcd vcsscl, of which Edgar
Tracy was the captain and priucipal owncr,
was insurcd, his Inss was trifling, and though
he was not rich, he possesscd a compeleucy
uhich would cnablc him to give Emily Alli
son a comfortable, ifnot a splcndid homc.
Hc, therefore, urgcd her to name an early day
for their brid.il.
"I have reflccled much," said she, one day
when hc had prcsscd lhe subject wilh more
ardor than usual, "asto whatcourse I onght

justice to you, 1 ought to remain as I am, for
I shall not ouly be a porlionless bridc. but

" Leave thcm ! could you for a siogle mo

vivacity. "1 have ennush for all. Our home
