It has changed very much, however, in the few years preceding.w Twelve or fifteen years ago the whole region was wild, rough, bleak, and in- hospitable. ’ l ‘he house which I now occupy had been inhabited by my father and grandâ€" father.

She was very youngâ€"~even younger than myself ,' I thought her very handâ€" some, and quite worthy of all the alienâ€" tion that I could bestow upon her ; l certainly thought I could give more of that security for wedded happincss than most men- of my age.

How it was that my weddingâ€"night was set. for Christmas night, I forgot, if I ever really knew. At all events, the marriage w lixcd for Christmas night, in the room in her mother’s house where We had so often eat handâ€"in-hand to talk over tl love of the present and the hopes of the future. And never did expectant brideâ€" groom look forward to any on c period with such certainty of happiness, as l to that Christmas evening. Nature, meanwhile, was as gay as my hopes, as pure as those of my bride ; for the snow lay deep over all the region, shrouding everything that might have been ugly or ofi‘ensivc.a Then along period of clear cold wcathcr seemed to have set in, lasting for many days, with only the change of its graduâ€" ally growing keener and keener, until at the verge of Christmas thc. atmosâ€" phere must have touched zero and gone far below it. What was cold weatlicrâ€"â€"nay, frch- ing weather, however, to a heart as young, as warm, and impctuous as mine? Was not Milly to be mine on Christmas night, and comfort all my life thereafter?

I had di canned such dreams a thousand times beforeâ€"all night, in my lonely roomâ€"by day, in my office, if left alone and in silcncc for a tow moâ€" mentsâ€"under the stars, when cach seemed sending down some benison on my love; but never before so after making the excuse of carrying her up a pair of shoes and some ribbons, while the fact was, I suppose, that I felt the impossibility of waiting two Whole days without sight of her, the proprieties necessarilykeepin g me absent on the last night of unmarried life. How fearfullv cold that night shut down! I remember its chill as if it had been but yesterday. The snow crunched under the foot with that pccu- liar metallic sound indicative of cvcry flake being frozen anew , the stars winking with a chill glitter tha' cmcd steely and pitiless ,‘ and the northâ€"west Wind bit home like the driving of sharp icicles into the flesh. It was an awful night, spite of the calm of the he wens; a night long to be remembered by me. It came eight o’clock, and we had finished supper. My father was ubscn t, but was momentarily expected. I came out from the house and I found my stepâ€"motherwthe dearest and best of women, who I loved quite well as I could have done my own motherâ€" standing at the yard gate. Through the dusk, I could see that a ragged unâ€" cleanly-looking old fellow was at the gate, and I could hear their con vcrsaâ€" tion. He was asking the privilcge of staying all night, and she was evidently hesitating. I knew why she was doing so. Within twenty-four hours our house would be full of visitors, attract- ed by the wedding and the Christmas festivities ; and how could she allow that uncleanly tramp to contaminate one of her snowy white and ilninaculqtc bedsâ€"perhaps infect a whole chamber-l I heard tlrat doubt in her voice, and I echoed itâ€"eâ€"God forgive me 3 I was much younger then, and so much less aware of the scars which crimes and follies make on our natures as well as our lives. Sometimes I think our love and our happiness make us for the moment harder and more selfish, just as at other moments they soften and refine us. I was so happy, just then, I think, that the world was nothing to me. Above all, I wanted no strangers, and certain- ly no dirty strangers, mingling with the family and my great joy. The man was pleading, even after the refusal, to be allowed to stay ; and I heard him, in a voice that sounded foreign and outlandish, though he was speaking good English enough, saying something about “ Holdane." “ Pshaw l mother, you have debated long enough with that old straggler l” I said. “ He knows about Holdane, and no doubt can easily find his way there. Send him on, and come in out of the cold, with your bare head and no shawl." :30 fondly or vividly as that night when near the approach of my noccs gave color to some intensity of expectation. My father fullillcd my mother’s wish in a very briefperiodâ€"perhaps half an hourwby returning, the snow crunching hard under the wheels, and his breath frozen to great icicles in his board. He came in to the lirc, while one oft-ho men lcd away his horse. My mother \ 'as evidently ill at ease, for she spoke to him on the one subject uppermost in mind, almost the moment that he V 'as seated. She told him what had been said and done, as little as myselfexpccting wl t was to follow. “I am {shamed that I have one of you for a wife and the other for a son l” he exclaimed, indignantly, when he know thc whole. “ Allow an old man, in poor clothcs, to go away from the door on such a night as this! Why, .1 havo hcard toâ€"day of two men and a woman found frozen to death in different places! I am ashamed :of you both! Herc, give .. id must do myself the justice to say, that . we returned to it. Such intense cold I had ne'ver before experienced, and have scarcely ever since felt its equal. Iron bands seemed drawn around our brows; the breath froze on our lips ; our hands and icet grew lumps of ice- â€"as up and down, first one road and gled, slipped and slid our terrible way. All the way to Holdanc and back, the 0th r road, nearly the whole distance; sideâ€"road after sideâ€"i road, wherever t hull was l)0r«$‘llil0 or a human track showed itself to the light of the lantern. Not a clay-pit that we did not explore, not a dark object that we did not visit with fear and dawning horror. I have said that hand: and feet were ice; but my brain was burning fire. I can only remember a chaos of self-accusation and abject horror of myself, rather diminished than inâ€" cr used by Coming upon the object of our search, at what afterwards provâ€" ed to have been past two in the morn- ing. “’0 found him under the ice of the woods, in a bit of sideroad, half- way up the hill toward filloldano, seated at the foot of a tree, his ‘ibin rags drawn close around his chest and throat, where the bands had slill'cucd that held them~~dcad l~~stonc (loud l â€"and cold, alumst as cold as the night and our pity !

I think that I need scarcely enlarge upon what followed. It was only too plain that one of the long-lest broth- ers of Mrs. Golden, an uncle of my Milly, making his way, old, broken, and pcnnilcss, from some scene of long suffering, to where he had dimly heard that his sister .rcsidod~had been turned from the door by me to die so miserably. Of course you want to hear the restâ€"there is not much,and should not be, to end such a recollection. But the rest was impel-taut to myself, for thank God that l Wits punished l I say it reverentlyithank God that He punished mc, otherwise than even in the stings of conscience l I had expected to be the husband of Milly Golden on Christmas night; before that night came, her mother, fallen inscnsiblc on the body of her brother, who thus came to her only in death, had sunk under the blow, and all thoughts of marriage were as far away as then seemed happiness. It was a sad Christmas; and, before the spring flowers bloomed, Mrs. Holden lay beside her brother. I suppose I need not say that nei- thcr Milly Golden nor myself thought of marrying over the body of her dead uncle, when I was so nearly his murderer, and with her mother lying a hopeless invalid from the same cause. And when the second blow came, and she was an orphanâ€"was it much more likely that we could forget. now that a second bod 3' roomâ€" cd to lie between our loves?
