wide his secrecy wad only still maintained,
L!! he found that rhe would not a•reld to her
parents' ant booty, when.wnu'd bo the time
for using his threat of disclosure to Ilelen;
to compel her cement. All this reasoning
seemed founded in existing curcumatances
and appearances; but PO confurcd were her
thou,hti, and so narnful every effirt of her
mind to wiper° clearer views, that aloe felt
inclined to rennnnee r'-aennrne nn a .mhjeet
that "teemed at every turn to defeat all 1ler

misery was at least certain; for now, while
oho ab -slut. neceesrty of disclosure of her
vecret love became more peremptory and
inevitable, the circumstances ander whkh it
would Inc made wore such as would add to
the unhappiness of her parent., and to the
apparent deceit and treachery of her own
nature, which tea., notwithstanding, inca-
pable acetic.
Meanwhile, the effects of so much men•
tal anguish acting upon a tender frame, be-
came soon apearent in her pale countenance
and swollen ryes. She wodel nut leave
her apartment; and when her mother again
visited her, rhe .aw a change on her daugh-
ter veru o. o errnt from that acoom.panlev

The circumstance ettrpri•ed the cid lady;
but Bull •n satisfied was she that there
et -mid exist no objection to a lover whom
she had jas was thought) cherished for
years, That it never occurred to her that the
change in her daughter was attributable to
the announcement she had mato to her;
while Ilelen herself, oppressed with the
secret which she+truogled (am yet in vain)
to divulge, shunned a subject whteh she
lotted herself unable to trent in that way
which would insure to her relief from her
sorrow. Every effort was made to get her
out into the wood., where her former scenes
might enliven ber mind and bring beck her
wonted @ptrttp, which, chiming the musical
hells of youth's happy glee, used to charm
Iheage-atrucken hearts of her parenG.—
Bet there .renes had loot their power over
her. The secrets Blacket Holier had to
divulge Bull lay lee an unholy spent upon
her heart, killed I . energies, and rendered
her miserable. Sr)eex expected the additional
Pe
source of sorrow of his society, in these
forced walks, and ber grief was mixed with
serer'se at ha absence. He was often at
the bense, but he avoided her. She even
sear him rum into a by-path, to get nut of
the way in which she walked—a rursum-
stance as Inexplicable at any of the prior
dtfficuities with which tbe whole affair was
beet on every side. She continued her
disclosure, and, wrth many smell, felt them
die away, end gave tongue• melee to her
mouth, as the nnavding effort shook her

T!1e grand aim of tho Congress is to put
dawn war. The •means it employs r• the
enliOatenment of public opioi.-n on the folly,
ma feces, crime, and eonseq urnres of war.
The particular method selected is that n(
prrrodica'!y converging on one focus all the
brightest thoughts aml warmest emotions],
arc moat glowing aspiration*, in favour of
universal peace, so as at duce to attract tho
notice, teach floe reason, and interest (he

War, be it remembered, at least so far an
Europe and America arc concerned, is not
an ebullition of enteral passion—nor the
''cvelnptrert of an lest net—nor an insop-
fre,,rhln outburst of the tormenting ele-
ment* of human nature. it is an organized
system. it supposes forethought, delibera-
tem. preparation, eceenc'e. It represents,
ear t human paseione, but human will. It is
not a winter tortent, but an artificial
your. it is factitious, not spontaneous—a
contritanee growing nut of design, --not a
c.irllagratron kindled by a momentary flash -
Tice system is one of machinery, and that
which puts it in motion is the deliberates
determinate in'of there who have this ma-
chinery at command. Break it to pieces,
and, tot the Present ago, war becomes all but
impnvoitlr.
The war makers—they who have it in

destructive organizations they have at their
