THE TOUCH OF CHANGE. " I foresee, and I could foretell Thy future portion, sure and well, But those passionate eyes speak true, speak true, And let them say what thou shall do." Robert Brimming. HAT sweet spring-time was a very happy time at the jeweller's shop in the Corn Market. If anybody about the place refused to be happy it was only Martin, and no one knew anything about his refusal. Agnes thought him very silent, very stern at times; if even he did any little kindness for her-and he never lost an opportunity of doing one -his manner of doing it was often quite inexplicable. If he placed a chair or opened a door he would compress his lips and knit his brows most ferociously, while she thanked him looking into his face with one of her sweet smiles. Martin generally walked off swinging his arms defiantly, or, if his temper was worse than usual, humming to himself some air or other, but producing a most dreadful timeless and tuneless noise. No one could say that the young man's behaviour was good. Still he did his work faithfully, his own and greater part of Julian's besides. Julian did not find it easy to turn over that new leaf of which he had spoken, and it was not to be expected of him that he should persist in doing anything that was difficult or distasteful. This was the grand noon of his life; why should he shadow it by vexing his own soul needlessly? Therefore he still went on his way much as he had done before, and a most social and buoyant way it was. He had hardly appreciated it properly until he had made some feeble struggles against the temptations it held, temptations of which they knew nothing in that " slow," old-fashioned home of his. Nothing was known of him there that could be openly objected to. It might be that in more.
