and Adam, ashe rose and gave her the basin again, looked straight into her eyes with the subdued tenderness that belongs tv the first moments of hepeful love.

Hetty did not turn away her eyes ; her ‘blush had subsided, and she met his glance

‘There’s not mony currants to get,’ she ‘said ; ‘I shall scon ha’ done now.’ | ‘I'll help you,’ said Adam, and he fetched ‘the large basket, which was nearly full of currants, and set it close to them. | Nota word more was spoken as they ‘gathered the currants. Adam’s heart was too full to speak, and he thought Hetty knew all that was init, She was not in- different to his presence after all ; she had

was that touch of sadness about her which | must surely mean love, since it was the | opposite of he:f usual manner, which had , often impressed him as indifference. And ‘he could glance at her continually as she | bent over the fruit, while the level evening |sunbeams stole through the thick apple- | tree boughs and rested on her round cheek jand neck as if they too were in love with ther. It was to Adam the time that a man ean least forget in after life—the time when he believes that the first woman he has ever loved betrays by a slight some- thing, a word, a tone, a glance, the quiver ing of a lip or an eyelid, that she is at least beginning to leve him in_ return, |The sign is so slight it is scarcely per- | ceptible to the ear or eye—he could describe jit tono one—it is a mere feather-touch, iyet it seems to have changed his whole | being, to have merged an uneasy yearning ‘into a delicious unconsciousness of every- thing but the present moment. So much ‘of early gladness vanishes uiterly from our memory; we can never recall the joy with which we laid our heads on our mother’s bosom or rode on our father’s back in child- hood; doubtless that joy is wrought up into our nature, or as the sunlight of long past mornings is wrought up into the soft mel- lowness of the apricot; but it is gone for ever from our imagination, and we can only believe in the joys of childhood. But the first glad moment in our firet love is a vision which returns to us to the last, and brings with it a thrill of feeling intense and special as the recurrent sensation of a sweet odor breathed in a far-off hour of happi- ness. Itisa memory that gives more ex- quisite touch to tenderness, that feels the madness of jealousy, and adds the last keeaness to the agony of despair.

Hetty bending over the red bushes, the level rays piercing the sereen of apple-tree boughs, the length of bushy garden beyond, his own emotions as he locked at her and believed that she was thinking of him, and that there was no need for them to talk—Adam remembered it all to the last moment of his life.

And Hetty ? You know quite well that Adam was mistaken about her, Like many another man, he thought the signs of love for ancther were signs of love toward him- self. When Adam was approaching unseen by her, she was absorbed as usual in think- ing and wondering about Arthur's possible return ; the sound of any man’s footstep would have affected just in the same way—- she would have felf it might be Arthur before she had time to see, and the blood that forsook her cheek in the agitation of that momentary feeling would have rushed

| back again at the sight of any one else just as much as at the sight of Adam. He was not wrong in thinking that a change had come over Hetty; the anxieties and fears of a first passion, with which she was trem- bling, had become stronger than vanity,

which awakens the clinging deprecating womanhood even in the shatlowest gir] that ean ever experience it, and creates in her a sensibility to kindness which found her quite hard before, For the first time Hetty fclt there was some- thing sorxthing to her in Adam's timid yet manly tenderness ; she wanted to be treated loving!y—Oh, it was very hard to bear this blank of indifference, after those moments «f glowing leve !

Death of “Mr. "Macdonald, of | Kepplestone.

The Daily Free Press, of Aberdeen, Scot- land, has the following obituary notice of Mr. Alexander MacDonald, of Kepplestone, ‘Aberdeen, Scotland. The deceased hes many relations on P. E. Island, He was a nephew of the late Donald Macd naid, Erg., of New Perth, and a cousin of James Macdonald, Esq., Sheriff of King’s Co. :— | The announcement, which we make with ia feeling of sincere sorrow, of the death of Mr. Aleaander Macdonald, of Keppk store, head of the well known firm of Alexander & Co., Aterdeen Granite , Works, will be received, not only in Aber- deen, but very far outside of it, with a feeling of surprise as well as regret. The isad event occurred shortly after ten o'clock ion Saturday morning, at deceased's resi- ldence at Kepplestone, after an ilinees of | rather less than a week's duration, the cause ot death being, we understand, a serious jaffection of the kidneys, attenced by other complications. Mr. Macdona!d wes in his office at the Granite Works in Constitution Street on Saturdsy weck, atiending to business as usual, though we believe he had not been feeling quite well for some days; but about Sunday his illness in- creased. Dr. Ogilvie Wili and Dr. Angus Fraser, his vsual medical attendants, who were called in early, were from the first impressed with the critical nature of the case, and while most assiduous in their attention to their patient, deemed it expe- dient to call in the, special services ot Dr. Heron Watson, Edinburgh, who reached Kepplestone on Thursday. But though intervals of partial relief occurred, the real gravity of the attack could not be overcome, and, as already stated, Mr. Macdonald succumbed to the disease on Saturday morning. The deceased, who, in point of years,was in what might be termed the very prime of life—his death, singularly enough, having occurred on the morning of his forty-eeventh birthday—wae the only surviving eon of Mr. Alexander Macdonald, a man of re- markable ability and high character, and who, as the originator of the higher forms of granite working, signified by polithing that obdurate material for the finer monu- wental purposes, and for exact sculpture, has a very strong claim to be remembered in Aberdeen. Mr. Macdonold, whose decease we now record, wasa man of marked natura! ability and force of character. Of this his life af- forded many evidences, apart from the fact of his having for so long successfully carried on avery large business, giving employ- ment to from four hundred to five hundred men, and from its nature demanding the exercise of no common powers, while laboring under such pbysical dis- ability as would have gone far altogether to unfit some men for any active part in the business of life. We can recall him twenty-five or twenty-six years ago as a powerful young fellow of twenty or thereby ; a man whose handsume face aud finely formed head caught the observer's eye quite as much as his vigorous physique And after the volunteer movement com- menced in 1859 it found in him an entha- siastic supporter. He was chiefly instrumental in raising one of the artisan companies, the captaincy of which he held foratime. But the result of a serious iJiness was to deprive him entirely of the use of his lower limbs; end for the part twenty years or thereby he had to tigh* against the great disadvantage of being quite cut off from veluntary locomotion, even to the extent of crcessing @ ;oom, otherwise than by artificial aids. We have already speken generally of the granite works under Mr. Macdonald's management It is enougl!, in addition, to say that in 80 far as monumental sculptures, and works of that class of an elaborale and costly character, as well as designs involving the working of large blocks of granite for orna- mental purposes generally, are concerned ; prebably no other granite work in existence has approached the Constitution Street Works in the extent and character of the orders executed. And iv this reletion Mr. Macdonald’s correct taste and thorough knowledge of siyles, as w«li as maiters of technical detail, were of great advantage in a business point of view. In ail the chief monumental erections required by the Queen, for exemple, including the tombs of the Prince Consort and other deceased members of the Royal Family, it was Mr. Mecdoneld’s firm that was employed to carry out the designs in granite. And the avumber of elaborate and costly designs for public purposes in this country and abroad execuied by the firm has been very large. Apart from mere business, Mr. Macdon- ald was perhaps more widely known in artistic and literary circies than almost any other citizen of Aberdeen. He was not merely a fine art connoisseur in the ordinary conventional sense, but a shrewd and dis- criminating judge of pictures, and his col- lection at Kepplestone is one of the tnest and most valuable private collections 12 Scotland. A unique feature 10 it is @ gallery, a8 we may term it, of portraits of living artista of eminence, painted chiefly by themeelves, in which there are now @ very large number of portraits. He was
