I feel very grateful to yoa for allowing me to make a full explanation of what must appear to you to nave been my extraordinary behavior to you on the night of the ball, aud if, after the perusal of this letter, you will consent to give me your assist ance, my gratitude will be boundless; for indeed you will help me out ot a great difficulty, one through which my happi ness might be shipwrecked, unless I can manage to evade it. I must tell yon all, from the begining, before I can expect you to judge of the case When I was about fiitden years old, my father, who ?vas then my only surviving parent, died, leaving me to the care and guardianship of his half-brother, who was twelve years Lii junior, then just twenty-eight years of age My father's marriage nad been an unhappy one, and his dying request ro my uncle was, then he would use his utmost endeavours to prevent uie from t ontracting an early marriage, in order that my judgment and taste should be $o fir matured as to render an impru dout choice least probable True to Jthe promises thus exacted my uncle, as I grew older, used every meaus in his pow er to exclude me from female society, keeping as vigileut watch over me as .ras consistent with the exercise of the duties which his professisn involved. Hisregiineut was ordered to India, when I had completed my twenty-first year. Before his departure, he made arrange ments with a friend of his who was on the point of sailing in a yacht for the Atlantic, that I should accompany him This plan pleased me, as offering an oppertunity of gratifying my long cher ished wish* to see the world and some thing of life, for I had till tlnsii a limited experience, my University career having been a short and studious oue, my uncle having prohibited travel in the vaca tions, which I usually had spent with him in some quiet place. It was with delight that I heard we were bound for America, and that we should probably visit Cauada, where the gentleman whom I was to accompany had a bache lor brother residing In his last inter view with me, before starting, my untie talked to me long and seriously as to my future, and upon the importance of my exercising the greatest discretion in the t-boice of a wife, should I at any time l?e matrimonially disposed. He reminded me that my fortune had been placed by my father at his disposal for me, until I should reach my twenty-fifth year. Af ter that time he should ceas to exercise his right to influence my actious, but that until then he would in no case con sent to my marriage, or, indeed, to any engagement of the Kind, unless he should himself be porfectly satisfied with the lady? who mnst posess t:o le.ss that three requirements ot his own making ? namely: That she should hi* tall, that her uame should bo Coie-tanee, aud that she should possess, at least oue thousand pounds. To these ho annexed a condition which bound me to wait to engage myself until he should see her, una be euabled thus to form his own judgment. I had not yet dreamed of marrying at all, aud troubled myself w, v little* abont the promises which I readily made to what I considered my unrln's eccentric exactions. Nor did I think then that he seriously iuteuded to stand to them, bat fancied lie was jesting in a grave kind of way as he often did iu con versation with me. After a delightful voyage we reached the new world, and soon arrived at Toronto, our destination. I was most kindly welcomed by my friend's brother, who, though a "single man, was of a very sociable disposition, aud bad a large acquaintance. The brothers were not so vigilant, over mo as my uncle might have wished, in their kind-hearted zeal to interest aud amuse me, aud I hid plenty of opportunities of becoming acquainted wita the fair sex Amongst the mauy charming girls whom I mot In society, Miis Fortescue attract ed me the most, aud after rcpeatod meet ing*, I felt that I was falliugiulove with her. She did not discourage me, and we were uot loug iu establishing a mutual understanding. I did not meutiou to Mary, for tiat was my lady love's name, auy thing about my uncle's strange con ditions, but simply told her that I must gain his consent to our engagement, and that I should not be free to marry her until I had attained my twenty-fifth yean but Secretly I began to think of my promise with some degree of anxiety I discovered that Mary's second name was Coustance, to my surprise and in tense relief. She was more than com monly tall, certaiuly; but the third re quirement, the oue thousand pounds, was wantiug 1 It was such a piece of good lock about her name and her height, but particularly the former, that the import ance of the money difficulty did#not weigh with me much As for that some godmother, and a number of contingen cies might happen to help usin this par ticular, so I wrote to mv nncle to tell biSl that I had chosen a dear, fascinat iug prl, whom he could not fail to approve that she possessed the requirements which he deeme<f necessary, and I felt certain of his conseut to my engaging myselfc as soon as he should be able to make her acquaintance. Mv Constance, I told him, wss all be could desire. I never said a word abont the foitune. In sepiy, my nncle told me that he was sur prised at my having so soon found a young lady who answered so completely to his pattern, for he had imagined it wonld be more difficult for me to meet Ma requisitions in these particulars, ?illij b? wonld not withhold fel? oooseot to my engagement, if he Mad that she fhmuM his condi tion fat every sense, and if she should pltata him, en hie becoming prrmwllT f ghnlii with her; wfrtoSlm aild ft . . . . trusted to have the'opportunity of being in three moats time, when he should be home in England on leave ; but that|I should incur his serious displeasure if I committed myself to anv sort of engage ment before he should have seen and passed bis verdict on the object of my choice. He had heard from me that I shonld return to EDgland in the yacht early in the next month, and that Con stance would follow me almost immedi ately with some friends, having accept ted an invitation to visit some relations in the north of Devon. The people with whom Coustauce (for I now always call her by her second name) was to travel were obliged to postpone their going to England, much to my vexation, and I was a little anxious at leaving her, sur rounded as she was by admirers, whom her beauty and love uf admiration and attention attracted. I comforted myself, however, with thinking, that though I must now without bciug able to biud her by promise to me, yet it wonld not be for long. She would probably be with me in a couple ot months time again, and when once my uncle had seeu her, I was certain he would allow us to be engaged,) for I felt that he would no more be able to resist her pow ers of charming than myself, and in spite of her having no money, for was not my own fortune, which was considerable, enough? He was a rich man himself, aud would |no doubt help ns, for he had always been most kind and generous to me. I arrived in England a fortnight ago, and remained in London till within the last few days I came to look up a college friend in this neighborhood, and was in duced by him to accept Lady L.'s invita tion to the ball. Just before leaving my friend's house with him that evening, a letter was put into my hands. On open ing it I found it was from ray uncle, and dated from Paris. He told me that his return bad been hurried by circumstances which took him to France His business would be settled in a few days, and on leaving the Continent he should make some visits amongst his friends in Eng land, and should afterwards present him self at my lodgings in town, when he ex pected me to conduct him to the place where Constance was staying, and that he should have just one week iu which to make her acquaintance before lie must leave Europe again for a lengthened pe riod. He promised, however, to write and inform me of the exact time when I might expect him, mentioning three weeks as probably the outside time be fore we should meet Here was a fix ior me to be in What should t do ? It I wrote to beg Constance to hurry her de parture, even if she would undertake the voyage alone, there would be no time foi her to make her preparations and to sail, so as to reach England before my uncle should have left it. I was in a sad di lemma, and wanted to rush back to Lon don bv the next train, to consult a friend in wliom I had confided iu my affairs, and whose advice I valued ; but Monek ton, my college friend, persuaded me to accompany him still to the ball^ \ou can think the matter over, old fellow,' said he, 'as well there as anywhere else, and there is not time for you to catch the London train now.' I chanced to see you when the night was half over, and being struck with your re semblance to Constance, begged to be introduced to you by the gentleman with whom you were speaking, of whom Monckton knew something. I did so al so partly to acquiesce in bis wish that I should (lance, as he said my not doing so looked so remarkable, and Lady L had asked him "if his friend never danc ed." On learning your name, it all at ouce occurred tome that Constance bad once told me that she bad an unci, and aunt living iu the north of England. It struck me, too, chat it was just possible that you might bea cousin others - hence my second question to you whilst <1. dic ing the quadrille together ? my ideas were in such a desperate state ot confus ion, at the time that I hardly compre hended how excessively impertinent you must have thought me, when I asked you the other questions Your replies put. the idea into my head which induc ed me to beg yon to let me write and explain myself, and how I come to the disclosure'of the design by which I hope, with your assistance, to obviate the dif ficulty of my position. Knowing ray uncle's resolute purpose when lie has made up his mind to anything. I felt sure that he wonld keep his word, and that unless he could see Constance and be able to judge of her himself, there would l?e no hope -of his consent to an engagement, and if we waited until be should ngain have au opportunity of so doing, we should have to remain as we were until lam twenty-five I would keep con stant to the end ot time itself, but I do uot feel quite so sure about ray love, sur rounded as she is by admirers, as I said before. Ah' if she should forget n:e' No, it is better to secure her at all risks. ? Let me implore you to help me -you can if you will ? you have the same names, are her cousin, I am almost sure. It' you would consider my petition, oh! how hap py you would make me; you would re lieve me from a tremendous load of anx iety. If you are her cousin, you caunot fail to know her near relatives, who live in Devonshire. Cannot you pay t hem a visit iu about taree weeks' tiiue, and confer the immense favor upon iue ? of consenting to personate my Mary Con staucefor the week which my uncle pro poses to pass in her compauy? I will let you know, in case you afford me this hap piness, the exact day when I shall have to conduct ray uuele to visit the Fortes cues for this purpose. 1 shall await your decision auxiously, and shall tear the worst until I hear.'
