We used to differ about that at school.' Kate Balfour und her friend Lucy, were both on-the point of ' coming out,' '.Though they had attended numerous little companies Before, the party -to be given that evening was the first .large_on& to which either had been yet asked. This'is - always Bn iriTpoT? taht era in a girl's life. Her first party is talked of for weeks beforehand, her'aress is usually, arranged with great care, ajid she scarcely ever reposes hei head oa her pillow without dreaming of the eventful evening. But perhaps Lucy thought less <Jf>this party than did nine out of ten of her acquaintances. Brought up by a widowed mother of most excellent principles, Lucy's, natural good sense had been improved by education, and few of her age had less gidlineas or vanity. The-remarts-sho-roade— in Hw rnmpnnioni which we have quoted, show how superior she was, ina petty, love for admiration, to Kate. Indeed, in this respect, her parent had fully succeeded in her laudable wish. 'MyThroghterV 4he -would -ftftyr J -^^eve^ imbibe a passion for vain display. Every been so much admired in spite of Frank Ritchie's neglect. There was something flattering to her pride in it, and we doubt if many of our fair readers would have felt dif- j-ferenllVi-- The next day several of the gentlemen to whom shn had been introduced called, and Lucy soon had a regular set of admirers, who vied with each other in making tha-long wxnler _evenings pass agreeably to her. Frank Ritchie had called on hoi-toe, audrBtilt' made occasional visits ; but he .never pre- suniedTJrrmore~than a common acquaintance- ship ; and their conversation was-, therefore, reserved and~even cold.

Lucy grew up; and we have seen her strictly adhering to them, even on the tempting occasion of her first party. Yet we must confess -it was with a beat ing heart that Lucy entered the apartroenj' t-eyemng. The-glnr^of the lights, crowds of dancers,, the music, the beautiful dresses, forcibly impressed, her-imaginattonv; and as with difficulty she.made her way through the toom, she could not help contrasting het 1 comparatively plain appearance with the richerattire-of-most-of-lhe^ompanyi-. Lucy was not beautiful: she had only what is called an interesting face ; and she could not conceal from herself, therefore, that less attention was paid to her than her school mates received. Those, indeed, whp were no more lovely than herself, but who were dressed more gaudily, had suitors when she had none. But Lucy was most pained to perceive that her childish playfellow, Frank Kitchie, who had just returned from law-school after com pleting his studies, scarcely noticed her. For years_they had felt for each other that sort of on affection which two children of different sexe», who are thrown much together, often experience : a mingled friendahip and love —half childish, half serious. When Frank left for college, Lucy had been the last one on whom he called, and his parting' gift had been treasured eversince. Girls are usually more lasting in their attachments than boys, and poor Lucy had always pictured to her self with joy the period when Frank should return. But now Frank hntl come* h u ay^ng arriVed that very afternoon, and yetne scarcely spoke to her. Once indeed, when the evening was nearly a third gone, ho came and shook hands with her; but he did not re main five minutes. His whole time seemed to be engrosse<I~by lTnte\Balfour \whose cosi ly dress and showy st^'le of face made her the belle of the evening, at least nrriong the younger portion of the male sex.- Lucy thought that Frank might havo dancpd with her,- i f only once, for old acquaintance sake. Poor girl i how she deceived herself in that thought; fpr Lucy was in love, if ever a true-hearted being^ was, and iiad been so for years. ! By and bye, as she sar neglected in a cor ner, wishing herself homo with her kind mother, she overheard two gentlemen speak? this One was th(l celebtated* Judge Bald- taste in which she was attired. For Frank was\- possessed of good sense; and though, like all young men of his years, he had been caught for the time, by the brilliant beauty cT=R?fre -Bnitotrr; he^eedpd=^ly~yeU'«iiGff to make him sensible of the superior value you sav it, it mus{ he true,'said Frank, aur- prised'out of his composure. * Frank,'said. hisjJiostessj. now fully con- vinced of the state of his heart, 'youmis- Tak ~cv~ \JJtt^is^r -WgagetrraTid— t f^any^iOn ff| loye? her, he is very.JboUsh to let another of a girl like Lucy.

Lucy was, not aware tha*t-F«nk overheard the compliment and was surprised, therefore, \•him Frnnk.a-little .jqter in the evening, approached her. She - was then about to dance with a young^man whom the Judge's wife introduced to her,* * no doubt.' as she mentally said, ' at her husband's recommen dation.' Lucy was piqued at the previous coldness of Frank, and was not sorry for this opportunity to Tevenge herself; for, with all her virtue, Lucy was but human.

Once,on the floor, a dozen eyes were nttracted by her grace and elegant person and as soon as the set was finished, she was besieged with suitors, asking the plcnsuta .of her hand for the dance. In a few minutes she was engaged for e\very quadrille during the evening.—She went home with proud heart to recount the events of the evening- to her sr&nt ; nor will we conceal that a portion of pr secret sntisfnetion arose from having t{ie two lovers injp_ conversation on a sub j'ect in which she knew Frank would shine, if on any. Nor was she mistaken at the sue \m« n r \hpr plan. Frank had suddenly re win, arid the other a member of Congress, They we.ro canvassing .the people present ' Now to my taste,' said the Jud.ge, drop- pi»g liis.rojce, though Lucy coald not avoid hearing hiha still, the best dressed young la dy here is Lacy Morris {you knew her moth er, did you not'f^^Ke shs there on the otto man. Good taste is the characteristic of her attire : there is no flash, no symptom of va nity abot»t it: the girl who dresses so must be\ a most excellent creature; and' judging from that fact alone, I would sooner fall in love with and matfy her than any other here. Lucy thought she would have sunk through the floor, for hers were ears unused to such' extravagant compliments. Her cheek burn- .ed, hut h£r heart hounded. Nor was sjie the only one who heard the speech. Frank was at that moment passing Judge Boldwinr-with Kate Balfour.-hanging on his arm! and invol untarily turned to look at Lucy. The blush which suffused her cheek made ber really beautiful al'thaf moment, and Frank owned to himself that he had been as hasty in- pro nouncing her fac<? plain as in o\-erlooking the more convinced that sue aisiutea mm . ti e -accordingly sought the society of Kate Bal four, who had first attracted Kim ; and soon the gossips of the villuge pronounced that it w6uld be a match between the gay belle and the rising young lawyer. Yet Frank really loved Lucy, though he was becoming every dav further entangled in the toils of the vain coquette. Judge Baldwin, who had been tho bosom friend of JMank!s-iather, suspected this, both from the character of the young man and from his de meanor when in Lucy's company. ' ' He was caught, at fir-t, like very young men generally are,' said the Judge to his wife, ' by the glitter of our village belle, but his strong sense must reach him that Lucy is the-puro gold, while-Kale 13 but the counter feit. And I sometimes suspect that our sweet 1 Lucy has not altogether forgotten their child ish attachment.' You are right,' said Mrs. Baldwin. ' I am no observer of young ladies' hearts, if Lucy does not love Frank. But mutual dis trust has grown up between them :* he is re served, and she is dignified ; and really, 1 am \fraid it will end by his marrving Miss Balfour.' That would be a-pity ; for I believe she only seeks Frank for his money. She is a vain, heartless flirt, who cares solely for ad miration and display. Lucy, on the contra ry is a sweet creature, with a heart that would be n treasure to any one. I do not approve oTlnterforiog in such cases ; but really I am sorry to see t»oyoung people sa crificed, who arc so fitted for each other as Frank and Lucy.' Stay ! I hove it,' said the wife suddenly. Trust a woman for managing a love affair! I will bring Lucynnd Frank together, if they admire each other ; if not, no harm will be done.' —, •But how?' * I scarcely know yet myself. But you may rely on me that nil will be monaged with due regard to the feelings of both Fr and Lucy.'\^ I am smoiq/that,' said the Judge, cast ing on his wife a fond look, which showed that twenty years of matrimony had not les sened hTs confidence in her discretion. 'A few evenings afterwards there was to be a social party at the house of the Judge. Frank was there. So, too, was Lucy, and with her Henry Clarence, the y*oung million aire of the village, whose attentions to our heroine were the talk of the whole place, jJTrank was unsettled and nervous through thp early part of tht> qvpning : his eves con fu.il J Mrs. Baldwin soonmrt Lucy,who, though receiving the homage of a wowd of suitors, appeared spiritless and absent.
