The morning trnin hound for Albany stood in the depot, w aiting the signal to start, and ju st before the final “all aboard“ was sounded a handsom e equip age drove slowly up, and from it alight ed Mr. Lincoln, bearing in bis arm s his daughter, whose head rested wearily up on his shoulder. Accompanying him were his wife, Jenny and a gray-graired man, the family till, sician. Together they entered the rear car, and instantly there was a hasty turning of heads, a shaking of curls and low whispers, as each noticed and commented upon the un earthly beauty of Rose, who in her fath er's arm s lay as if wholly exhausted with the effort she had made. The sight of her, so young, so fair and apparently so low, hushed all selfish feel ings, and a gay bridal party who had taken possession of the ladies’ saloon im mediately came forw ard, offering it to Mr. Lincoln, who readily accepted it, and laying Rose upon the long, settee, he tnude her as com fortable as possible w ith the num erous pillows anil cushions he had brought with him. As the creaking en gine moved slowly out of Boston Rose asked th at the window might be raised. , and, leaning upon her elbow, she looked out upon her native city, which she was ; leaving forever. p Toward nightfall of the next day they reached tilenwood, and Rose, more fa- gtigned than she was willing to acknowl edge, now th at she was so determ ined to get well, was lifted from the carriage and carried into the house. M rs. How land hastened forw ard to receive her, and for once Rose forgot to notice wheth- ije r the cut of her cap was of this year's fashion or last. "I am weary,” she said. “Lay me where I can rest." And with the grand m other leading the way, the father car ried his child to the chamber prepared for her w ith so much care. ‘It's worse than I thought ’tw as,” said M rs. How land, returning to the parlor below, where her daughter had thrown herself with a sigh upon the chintz-cover ed lounge. “ It's a deal worse than I thought 'tw as. H asn 't she catehed cold, or been exposed some w ay?” ‘‘Not in the least," returned Mrs. Lin coln. tw irling the golden stopper of her smelling bottle. "T he foundation of her sickness was laid at M ount Holyoke, and the whole faculty ought to be indicted for m anslaughter." Jenny’s clear, truthful eyes turned to w ard her mother, who frowned darkly, and continued: “She was as well as an? one until she w ent there, and I consider it my duty tao warn all parents against sending their daughters to a place where neither health, m anners nor anything else is attended to except religion and house w ork.” Jenny had not quite got over her child ish habit of occasionally setting her m oth er right on some points, and she could not forbear saying th at Dr. K leber thought Rose had injured herself by a t tending Mrs. Russell's party. “D r. K leber doesn’t know any more about it than I do,” returned her mother. “ H e’s alw ays minding other folks’ busi ness, and so are you. I guess you'd bet ter go upstairs at once, and see if Rose doesn't w ant som ething.” Jenny obeyed, and as she entered her sister's chamber. Rose lifted her bond languidly from her pillow, and pointing to a window, which had been opened th at _ she might breathe more freely, said, "Ju st listen'; don’t you hear th at horrid .croaking?” ( “ Sweetened w ith brown sugar, ain't It?” said Rose, sipping s little of the tea. In great distress the good old lady re plied th at she was out of w hite sugar, but some folks loved brown ju st as well. “Ugh! T ake it aw ay,” said Rose. " It m akes me sick, and I don't believe I can eat another m ite;” but, iu spite of her be lief, the food rapidly disappeared, while she alternate!:'' made fun of the little silver spoons, her gcaudm other's bridal gift, and found fault because the jelly was not put in porcelain jars instead of the old blue earthen teacup, tied over w ith a piece of paper! U ntil a late hour th at night did Rose keep the whole household on the ulert, doing the thousand useless things which her nervous fancy prompted. F irst the front door, usually secured w ith a bit of whittle-shingle, m ust be nailed, "or some body would break in.” Next the windows, which in the rising wind began to rattle, m ust be made fast with divers knives, scissors, combs and keys; and, lastly, the old clock m ust be stopped, for Rose w as not accustomed to its striking, and it would keep her awake. “ D ear me!” said the tired old grand mother, when at about m idnight she re paired to her own cozy little bedroom, "how fidgety she is. I should of «'posed th at liviu' in the city so, she'd got used to noises.” In a day or so Mr. Lincoln and Jenny w ent back to Boston, bearing w ith them a long list of articles which Rose m ust and would have. As they were leaving the house Mrs. H ow land brought out her black leathern wallet, and, forcing two ten-dollar bills into Jenny's hand, whis- pered, “T ake it to pay for them things. Your pa has need enough for his money, and this is some I've earned along knit ting and selling butter. At first I thought I would get a new cham ber carpet, but the old one answ ers my turn very well, so take it and buy Rose everything she w ants.” All this tim e the thankless girl upstairs was fretting and m uttering about her grandm other's stinginess in not having a better carpet “than the old, faded thing, which looked as If m anufactured befora the flood!” C H A P T E R XX. On the sam e day when Rose Lincoln left Boston for Glenwood Mrs. Campbell sat in her own room, gloomy and de pressed. For several days she had not been well, and besides th at E lla's engage m ent with llenr.v Lincoln filled her heart with dark forebodings, for rumor said th at he w as unprincipled and dissipat ed, and before giving her consent Mrs. Campbell bad labored long with Ella, who insisted th at “he w as no worse than other young men—most of them drank occasionally, and H enry did nothing more!” On this afternoon she had again con versed w ith Ella, who angrily declared th at she would m arry him even if she knew he'd be a drunkard, adding, “ B ut he won’t be. H e lovea me better than all the world, and I shall help him to re form .” "I don't believe your sister would m ar ry him ,” continued M rs. Campbell, who was becoming much attached to Mary. “ I don't believe she would either, and for a good reason, too,” returned Elia, pettishly jerking her long curls. ‘‘B ut I can't see why you should bring her up, for he has never been more than polite to her, and th at he assured me was whol ly on my account.” “She Isn’t pleased w ith your engage m ent!” said M rs. Campbell, and Ella replied: “W ell, w hat of th at? I t’s nothing to Jenny laughed aloud, for she knew her, and I d idn't mean she should know Rose had heard “th at horrid croaking” it, but Jenny, like a little tattler, must more than a hundred tim es in Chicopee, needs tell her, and so she has read me a but in Glenwood everything m ust neces two hours' sermon on the subject.
