efS-Ot money came sweeping into the room. She did not deien ia notice Mrs. E:lsford at first, but when her mother told her this was Caroline, who would give her some lessons in music, as well as to take charge of her girls, slIe ', He'd her inexpreS- sive eyes upon her, and after scanning her from head to foot, with half snecriilg air, remarked:

 Well, I reckon she'll do. What's her name ?-I didn't hear ta. ,s,,

 CaroIine.' tp.

 Caroline, hcm! Ma,--I wish you hadn't went to Mrs. Mclonec's ball last night-you really looked SO awkward that 1 was ashamed fyou. And when you do go out, why in the name of comnon sense will you dance? l never saw any one in my life dance so ungracefnlly. Why, Mr. Fortunatus laughed right out when you made the false move in the cotillion--and he is such a gentleman in all his manners, and so intelligent and interesting, wouldn't have it happen for all the world

 We'll, never mind, my dear, it's all over now.'

 Yes. but I do mind though, and it aint all over yet. I don't choose to have you laughed at, especially as it tends to make me extremely ridiculous

 Duly installed in her unenviable office, Mrs. Ellsford used every exertion to mod l fly and refine the crude material upon (which she had to work. In the delec,able Miss Angelina Dobbs she found such specimen of unregenerate gentility, as is to be met with every day in what is called the good society of.he city; but the philoso- phy ofneccssity made her submissive to her lot, and she did not murmur. She had to suffer daily with the uncouil, manners, in- suits, and intrusions, of those who consid- cred themselves greatly her superior 1; but she bore it with accomplishing gentleness, and though l saw her as ofien as ! could, yet she never hinted, even remotely, that she felt her unpleasant situation. Miss Angelina Dobbs, had often met in com pany, aud had found some little favor in her eyes. occasionally called to see her, bu, it was for the real purpose of seeking an opportunity for word with Mrs. Ellsford, which it was rather difficult to get, espe- cially as she was rarely allowed the privi- lege of the parlor, and was constantly made to submit to the petty commands of every member of this graceless family. Now she must ring for the servant, and now be sen, for this thing; and no, subsequently would she be desired to leave the pallor. ~

 Nearly two years passed away, and tl'e lovely widow of my late friend was still buried in the family of Mrs. Dobbs. Miss Angelina had made several conquests, but was not yet married off The real char acter of Mrs. Ellsford had become known, and though she was thrown into obscurty as much as possible by the noble family in which she resided, yet in that time she had met with several advantageous offers of marriage, such as Miss Angelina would have thought among the best; these offers were always declined, but in such way as caused her to retain tile esteem and respect of those whose kind feelings of tenderness she could not reciprocate.

 Even the hearilessness of fashion and wealth sofened when such woman as Mrs. Ellsford became known in her real character, and she was now respected, and in many cases where good sense happened to accompany elevation, greatly esteemed, by such as visited Mrs. Dobbs. This change in the tone of visitors, produced a corresponding one in the family, and Mrs. E. was consequently treated with more re- spcct, and less rndeness. Her intelligent and true dignity-unitcd with u winning gentIeness of manner, and perfect free. dom from any effort at effect, insensibly won the good will and admiration of all 1; and it at length became matter of almos, necessity, that Mrs. E. should be in the par Tor whenever company were present, be- cause visitors always asked for her, and | would not be satisfied unless she were pres- eni. She soon drew around her an intel ligent coterie of both sexes, and rendered the drawing room of Mrs. Dobbs quite at- tractive. - l This could not be suffered to continue long, as Miss Angelina and her mother be- gan to perceive too plainly that the dangh- | ter was thrown deeply in the shade by the goyerness. Her situation was soon render ed too disagreeable for endurance, and she very reluctantly determined to leave q place where, notwithstanding the constant shocks which her feelings received, she preferred remaining to again submitting to the scrutiny and coldness of strangers.
