And I wanted the dratted scis- sors off the mantel ; and I thought that mamma would scold me for bother- ing her, if I asked her to get them for ine, and so I climed up on a chair, and it tipped -over with me, darn it, and I fell, and Locked the big lamp off the table, ana hurt myself, oh, so much.

"There, ma!" seid Lillie, coaxingly, arta taking advantage of that promise, the manner . of which illuetrated her litchen educetion, while its fervency proved that she meant to try to -avoid doing wring.

"That child has caused me more trouble, Miss Worrell," she con- tinued, half in apology to Fenny, whom she had so far ignored, "than all the rest of my nullity put together. But go on, Lillie, take her part a few times more, and see what will be the end of it !" "Leave her .60 me, min please do, and I will manage her," said Lillie, very coaxingly ; and with a few more muttered words which indicated that all the world was going to destruction, and her house leading the way, the in- censed matron quitted the room, the child not venturing from its "coign of ventage" mail certain that she had really taken her departure. Then war: the proper time, of course, for Lillie Saunderson, if she aspired to be theenentot of callow youth, ttimake up • for the protection which she lead accorded to her unfortunate sister, by scolding her soundly, • intimating to her that but for her interfereuce her mother would have ''half -killed her, and • served her right," and promising her that the very next time she either broke a lamp or a rule, she' need leek for no mercy or protection whatever.

Both the girls had risen from their seats—Penny Worrell in surprise, and Lillie's face flashed With mortification that her companion could not fail to observe. "What it: the world can it be, Lil- lie 2" aced Penny. "Oh, eome misfortune of poor Bet- ty's, without a doubt !" was the pained. reply of Lillie. "Poor child !—she is so careless, and mother is so harsh with her ! Pray excuse me for one moment !" Lillie was moving toward the door, with the laudable motive of going down and acting as a peace- maker, when there came the sound *of feet upon the stairs, the door literally" burst open, and a child of Mild or ten years ran in, screaming ail in tears followed by a comely reeking matron, her face dieter -tea with anger and her hand uplifted as if she could scarcely tient to cateh her truant child befere administering additional punishment. .18 was evident b Penny Worrell, at a glance, that Lillie's room urns t pre- viously have been used by the poor child as a "city of refuge" when the 'avenger of," /not "blood," bur childish adiscretions, followed close behind ; nil if it had been possible to add to the love and admiration held by her or her young friend, the addition would have been made at thet moment.

It would have been bet- el-, she thought, had Lillie Saundtrson Ono(' between Laurence Deane and a met of the injustice of which she had rn doubt that he had been made a sub- ect : but it was something if she stood etween little beaten Iletty and the tact hand of a trucnanat mother! Penny Worrall Iota often met Mrs. etsy Sannderson before, though sel- om in proportiori to the years during vhich she had been received as a friend y that ladys daughter. Of little letter she had only caught glimpses, as he truth was that the child had been onsidered an "underling," and kept lmost entirely secluded, only coming ut often enough to meet with those isfortunes inseparable from ill -train - Pig and awkwardness, to be punished, na then to be thrust away into back °oats, closets, 6r the company of sen ants in the kitcheu. But Penny saw oth mother and child more closely len than she had ever, done before ; nd the best of brief description may e found in her iatelligent observation. She saw, in Mrna Saunderson, a lady ast forty, a little stout in body and omely bpokaug in face, as she has be - re been described—with Lillie's chest - at hair, becoming a Little thinned, and le back of it covered, by a dress -cap lentifully ribboned ; a face handsome - moulded, with the exception of the mall, sharp, weak chin, and the quern; us drooped expression of the corners the mouth ; but something ahnost emoniac, though evidently only when fluenced by sudden passion, in the lation of the pupils of the once hand - me eyes. And in littlo Retty (pro- erly, Henrietta), she rettv a small, eazen face anddiminutive figurndress. 1 as much below the habit of the her members of the family as that oar Cinderella may have been beneath te finery of her arrogant sisters. .Hair most like Lillie's' but kept stiff and arsh by continualclippiug, and man - ging to be dishevelled despite its boy - h "crop;" eyes almost elfish rts tney eopedfrom beneetli a mass of it which hd tumbled dowin over her forehead in let hasty flight; mouth weak and embling, as mouths are ttpt, to be hen they have had more pain to eincen than happiness to strengthen nd lift the ends of the "Cupid's bow ;" ands grimed and ill-cated for, as those f neglected children net seldom bo- rne, to their after disfigueement for fe ; one shoe untied anl one stocking ipping down from. its garter; and a ress of dark stuff, ,too thiek for the rtoon and too commort for her corn non, .covered almost from throat hem with ft child' S Shirred apron of ilea gingham, which seemed to have (len arranged for the ono purpose of iding away as ranch of the poor child om sight as possible.

Whether from some accident growing out of their close intimacy of years be- fore, or from choice—not more than half-a4lozen blocks away from Satin- dersons, and in the same quiet old Ni th. Ward, only a little above "Bleecher." Very convenient, such proximity, at all events—in the days when something, more then -mere 'busi- ness relations had. bound the two men; not less convenient, as the reader may eventually be likely to imagine, now when another bond was drawing and eeen a third in process of arrange- Inent. Tothe right, rt's the visitor entered the hall of this house, which was of that description technicany known as andouble" one—no the right opened the door of a parlor luxuriously fitted (whatever might bo said on the score of taste) but seldom usedon account of the absence of any female member of the' family. To the left, no anwhile, a correspondine door upened from the hall ; and .within the room thus enter- ed, and the bedroom adjoining, rather oddly terminated by a conservatory of no mean pretensimn—John Gwiler might really be SP id to make his abode when at home, except (luring the brief hours of breakfast and dinner spent in his basement dining -room. For him, as for thousands of otners similarly situatea, nearly all the remainder of that large house was nothing else than a costly incumbrance—a thing of hol- low show, -to be opened and peeped intb occasionally ;'to be actually used ,orSO , -once in a certain nuenber of mavens, When a ' bevy of hie married friends took pinnon hint and crowded in in 'a hod,y to 'consume it 'certain quan- tity of gaslight, edibles and potables. Was it a matter of sin prise thane, man so situated should have thought of ren- dering that building less lonely ?—of installing there a mistress of "house and heart ?" 'John Gwiler was sitting alone in that small room to the left, on the evening -of the sem° day when we have seen Lillie Saunderson and Penny Wor- rell holding their long and important conference. A somewhat bulky escri- toire occupied one side of the apart- ment, its dropped. front supplying a commodious dent, and pigeon -holes for papers and private account -books show - in, under the broad light of unshaded gas -burner in full blaze above it, epite of the warmth of time June evening which made any addition to the natural caloric unnecessary. A map of the city, elegantly mounted, flanked and balanced the escritoire from the oppo- site wall, fillmeethat epee° wnich a less practical man of corresponding means would haeg :it obliged to devote to the "idle trumpery" of pictures. Two or three stuffed. arm -chairs, almost dis- proportionately large for the size of the room, one chair yet larger, and with a high back, capable of being thrown into such inclination as- to make it little less than a lounge—these, with a dark, soft carpet of such thickness that the foot snuk into it without elicit- ing a sound, made up the ensemble of an apartment in which other men than John 'Gwiler would have been quite content to make their "den" during hours of comparative leisure.

" Oh, never mind that," ejaculated the vivacious little woman ; "it won't cost anything to look at it, even if you don't buy. "I should like to have yon read it S01110 portions of it and see what it is." The accommodating broker took the 'volume, and glancing at the title -page, commenced a perusal of the introduc- tion.
