Rare and brilliant-gems they were, most daintily sot, and looking strangely out of place in that humble, little chamber. Janet held them tenderly, pressing thorn caressingly to her lips, and letting them slip through her lingers liko a stream of living light, Thero was. a spray of holiotrope in the bottom of the ffasket, and its sweet, subtlo odor flllod tho littlo chamber liko tho broathof in cense; and with that strange power which ordors alone possess, carried tho hoart of tho sad-facod governess away back to the dewy dawn of her girlhood. Only flvo years ago, and this solf-samo Janot had been tho daughter of a woalthy and indulgent father, with every comfort and luxury at her command, andcrewds of suitors at her feet. But only one of all these mot with any favor from the.shy, lit tlo beauty; and ho was in overy respect worthy'of her. On tho ovo of a voyage to Culcutta, ho had made his doclaratiou, and been accoptcd; and tho string of emeralds had beon his Dotrothal-gift. Por months after his departuro, Janet lived in a droam of bliss, ana then tho groat trouble of her lifo camo. llor fathor, who held a high position in tho mercantile world, failed utterly, and finding hlmsolf a beg gar, died of a broken heart. Then llieir beautiful dwelling, and everything went, and his poor wife sank into despairing helplessness; and. thero was no one-left to breast the bitter, bitter storm but pretty, littlo Janet. ' .Bravely enough sho did it, for the girl was a hero, despite her slender form aad lily faco. Sho remorod her invalid mother and little sister to a city far distant from tho scono of their recent troubles, procured humblo lodgings, and thon cast about her for omployment \With much difficulty, sho obtained a situation ns govorness, a position for' which hor Una .education and natural abilities rondcrod. her ominently, qualified. T?uus the years woro on, Janet hearing nothing from hor lover. Ho wns, probably, dead, sho thought; or ho might havo heard of her.father's failure, and re solved to quietly ignoro hor. She did not know, and sho was too proud to inquire. Now, standing thuro in tho gathering gloom j with the rush and roar of the great t;ity in hor ears, she asked herself, \ Why not scfT the oraoralds ?\ They would bring a good price, enough to mako her poor mother and littlo Alico comfortable thwurh many a dr'cnry month. And ycfsho'could hardly bring horsolf to part from them. They wero tlio ono link that bound her to tho happy put. Tho shadows thickened round her, and tho dreamy odor of the heliotrope wrapt her, like a tranco, in memories of the long ago.. Sho couid seo tho green, summer garden, hear tho plash of tho lountalnj and catch the twitter of • the canarisos from thoir gildcd'ca'ges. His face was bending over hor, his kisses burned upon her brow, his very words joemcd sounding in her oar again. \A quaint affair for a betrothal-gift, darling,\ he said, \buttbey are very precious, and they wore my mothor's wodding jowols. I hold thorn dearer than anything elso I possess, honco I give thorn to you.\ Could sho part from thorn ? Soil them for a few paltry shillings ? llor bosom rose and fell with great throb* of ..agonyj Sho could not I She was ceiling them into tbo case again, when her mother's hollow cough brolce an hor oar. \For ber sake,\ sho murmured, hor face whitening in the gloom. \Yes God help me, for hor sake 1 must I\ She closed tho casket resolutely, and slip- ping'lt in her pocket, hurried out into tha darkening, streets. Only a block or ,two from* Mrs. Drapor's was a fashionable jewelry csUblishmont.orory window a blaze of light. With her hoart in her meuth Janet ontored, and glanced down tho Ion lino of gayly dressed customors. It woul bo half an hour at least, she saw, bofore she could bo waited on< and that would be too late. And after all, perhaps, Mrs. Draper might let her havo part of her , monthly pay, and sho would not bo forcod to sell tho /emeralds just yet. Glad of any pretext or ozcuse for keeping her precious gems, sho hurried from tho shop; but thoughts of her mother and poor, disappointod little Alice brought tho blinding tears to hor oyos.— Life was vory desolate. Alas I what would tho Now Year bring to hor ? She ran along briskly, with a, dreadful aching at hor heart, till sho roaohod the stylish rosidonco of hor omployor. 40h, 'Miss Arbuthnot I here you are,\ crLed Mrs. Draper, as Janet tapped at the door, of the dressing-room../'Coma in, we,'ro in' dreadful neei of help.

Yours truly, J. N. E LIST. Mofflno. Everybody at Milan knows the history, for it is aot simply a story, of the spaniel Mofflno. The dog followed his master, who belonged to the corps of Prince Eugene Beauharnis, on the occasion of tbs disastrous expedition into Russia in 1812. At'the passage of the Boresioa, these two faithful cptiipanions wero separated by the mosses of ice which floated down the river and the Milanese cerporal returned to his native city, full of sorrow and regret, not on.account of wounds, but for the loss of bis poor dog which had shared with him so. much misery and suffering., A year passed by, and the soldier, in (he midst of his family, had almost fergotloncthe object of his regret. One day, however, tho peo ple of tho house wero \surprised by tho arrival of the spectre of an animal that might formerly havo been a dog, but which now scarcely deserved tb'o name. It was something truly ''bidceus that they tried lo drive a way without pity, notwithstanding the mournful cries of tho poor beast. At this moment tho ex-corportil returned from a walk, and saw advancing towards him, with joyful bounds, this wretched quadru ped, which licked his f»et, uttering at tho samo time low winnings. Do repulsed it roughly, and was about so deprive this singular visitor of the littlo life that ap peared to be remaining, when a sudden thought occurring to him, he examined certain murks on.it with attention, indica tions bt which diluted him much joy. Ho pronounced the mime \ Slofilno,\ and lho animal jumped up immediately, barked joyfully, and then fell down, exhausted with hunger, fatigue—perhaps, one, might say, wjth emotion. Uis master, who now recognized his lost dog, hastened to his assistance, succored him tenderly and saved him from death. Tho journey over moro than tho half of Europe undertaken by an animal without any guide but bis wonderful instincts ; tha mountains and rivers crossed by this foohlo croaluro, in search of his master, at the price of terrible sufferings, is a groat lessoa for the generality of mankind.— IUutlraied Library of Wonders. h A F AMILY P UZZLE.—Alluding to ther report that M.
