while in the rear it follows the line of the Canadian Pacific through Pembroke, Mattawa, North Bay, Sudbury, and Schrieber on the north of Lake Superior, nearly touching Manitoba, thus covering a distance of 1600 miles.It will be seen that this region embraces a large number of the important cities and towns of Canada, as Quebec, Montreal, Ottawa, Kingston, Sherbrooke, Three Rivers, St.Johns, Prescott, Brockville, Cornwall and Morrisburg.There are 37568 members of the Church in the Montreal Conference;

J.B.GOODHUE, Rock Island, P.Q.STATE TAX FOR ROADS.Minnesota Road Convention Formulates a Plan of Improvement.The movement for the improvement of country roads goes grandly on.The fow enthusiasts who but a few years ago struggled almost hopelessly, it seemed, to interest the people in improved highways must now view with delight the widespread demand for good roads.Gathering s for the purpose of discussing ways and means are of frequent occurrence in varions parts of the country, giving assurance that the spirit of reform is assuming practical shape.The recent session of the Minnesota convention for good roads formulated a system by which it is proposed to have \"ue DANGER MARKS.{From Good Roads.) a state system, abolishing the old ona by counties and providing for the building and repair of good roads by a stute tax.The following resolutions, among others, were passed : Resolved, That it is the senso of this conven: tion that the question of the improvement of country roads is one of the most important state questions now awaiting solution and de serves the earchul and servicus consideration of all, und especially those officers who have ta do with the construction of roads znd with the passage of laws locking to better roads.That we recommend that all country roads be divided into three classes according to their importance, That the first cluss, to Le known as stato roads, be under the general supervt- sion of a stato board, so fur us to determing their character, location, ete.The second class to be under the exclusive control of the country boards, who shall ulgo have the inmedinta supervision of building and repairing state roads.That the third class be Under the supervision of locul Lourds, such us township or small district bourds.That section 5, article 0, of the state constitution, should be umended 50 that a state fund muy be established for thé improvement of our public wagon rounds, which fund shall bo dix tributed to the several) counties of the state in proporiion to the cmount they shall expend upon state roads apd which shall be built as designated by the stute authorities and accept- cd by them.That if necessary to increase such state rond fund, that à pencral tax upon al! the taxable property of the state be levied and applicd to such fund.That we approve of a law taxing gifts in contemplation of death and inheritances, and resolve that the officers of this organization are requested to advocate the passage of an aes to that effcet by the next legislative assembly, and to urge upon the next ligislature fhe pro priety and tho justness of devoting the proceeds of such n tax to the construction und maintenance of poud roade.That this state should co-operate with the general government in providing ways and means for investigations ns to qualities una lo cation cf muterisls urcful fur road bulluing and the best methods tor the building sad su perintenaing of such wagon ronds.HOPEFUL SIGNS FOR ROADS.Encouraging Features of the Movement For Improved Highways.There is one especially encouraging feature of the good roads movement, It is the activity in that direction in re- - gions remote from centers of population.A convention of delegates representing the great state of Texas is to be held in Galveston beginning on May 22.In Arkansas a state convention was held at Little Rock in February, in which a resolution was adopted recommending a constitutional amendment empowering county authorities to levy a special tax for carrying on a work of general high- wuy improvement.Similar steps have been taken in several other states of the south and west.Another encouraging feature of the movement i8 a general disposition to profit by the experience of other countries, notably of France, which has perhaps the finest wagon roads of any country.(Good roads are more easily made and kept in order there than in most countries, becanse of the scarcity of forest areas, which conserve moisture and render somewhat more difficult the keeping of highways in repair.But it is possible and well worth the while to huve goud roads and still preserve the desired areas of narural forest.The time is not distant when the neglect of either of these important interests will be a matter of general public regret and will be viewed as a public misfortune, \u2014Youth\u2019s Companion, The Secret of Success, Fine roads cun be constructed all the way from &400 to 5,000 per mile, ne- cording to the nature of the country through which they pass, the cost of crushed stone and other engineering problems.The cost of keeping these roads in repair is infinitely smaller than that required to repair the ordinary dirt roads each winter and spring, when great gullies and ruts are washed into them by the rains and floods.The secret of the success of tho fina roads in France js attributed to the prompt and systematic repairs made at all seasons of the year.\u2014 Manufacturer.Conduce to Health and Pleasure.The improvement of the public highways is n matter of vital interest to all clusses and conditions of people.It has a very large and direct relation to the individual and commercial welfare of every community.Nothing of a ma- teriul sort is more conducive to the comfort, pleasure and prosperity of a peo ple than wide, smooth and well kept roads and streets.\u2014Christian

us\u2014nnd all must agree with them\u2014 that the three controlling influences in the formation of character are heredity, environment and education.The story of Watborg Ndzki's life gues to prove this Belicf.To the Anglo-Saxon ear the name Wal- borg bas rather a masculine sound, yet it is one of the most favored names for the gentler sex in Norwny.This is bow it came to ho given to one of the most heau- tiful Hungarian women of inodern times.Early in tle century Adolph Lassen, à young architees, left his native Christiania to seek his fortune at Budapest, where great public works wvero being: unidertaken.With the clear brain, strong frame and thoroughness of his raco Adolph Lassen soon found a place und prospered greatly.Ho boenmo a preat builder, a daring speo- ulator along productive lines and finally a very rich man.In the midst of Lassen\u2019s success thoro came to Ludapest, ever famous for its bonntiful and winsome women, & certain Mena Ndzki, the daughter of a inorganatiec marrisge betweon Prince Louis Ndzki of Hungary and à young gypsy singer and dancor, whoso grace, heauty and varied accomplishments mado her admirers will ing to die for her and to kill each other.This marriage, dithough irregular, was legal, and tho child took her father's namo.lt should he said to the credit of the Hungarian prince that he never took another wife.At shetimo of his marriage to the beautiful gypsy songstress the prince was rich, but he was an intense patriot and chafed under the forced Austrian al- Hance.Ho was finally detected in a conspiracy to overthrow Austrin and freo his ! to tho stage, resuming the name Ndzki for purely business reasons.Mme.Ndzki ro-enternd the profession in the city where she had left off, and if her reception was not so ardent as on her first appearance it brought the one thing for which sho was now striving\u2014monoy.While the mother was winning hearts and ducats in the principal cities of Europe Walburg, tho one objeot of all her of- forts, was kept nt the best schools.She grew up to bo n marvel of beauty, When Walborg Ndzki was 18, her mother died suddenty in Vienna, leaving her a fortune of nuarly £200,000.Tho girl was wonderfully gifted in the Jangunges and arts, but sho knew bug little of tho grea world.) Through all her lio the nomad spirit of the gyp-y in ler nature Was over demand- îng change, and the inherited love for the stago aanounted to a passion.Some thine after her mother\u2019s death

uniforms of the many oflicers present and the rich drosses of the women charmed her, but when the curtain rose, and the stage was fitted with graceful figures, and the dome throbhed with music, tho emotional girl was fascinated, .That night Walhorg Ndzki left tho opera housa madly in love with the Italian tenor, La Fluera, and in some inexplicably way sought her out the next day.this was a marriage before tho end of tha weok, Under ber mother's will Walhorg of 21, band came into possession of the wife's restate, but so trusting and ignorant was i Walborg that she would have discounted tho future for her husband if sho could.WALBORG NDZKI CAPTURED BY MEXICAN HORSEMEN, country.TTis ustates were conflscated, and he dicd in & dungeon after praying in vain for years to be tried.Adolph.Lassen knew and became the friend of the prince in the prosperous days, and he was not tho man to forsake the Hungarian when disaster came, for his wife and daughter after he was gone.The gypsy wife did not long survive her husband.Lassen had never seen the mother or daughter, and he was about to make inquiries for the latter, when Budapest glowed with the announoe- ment of a new Jyrie star of extreme youth and unsurpassed beauty.After some inquiries and before he had goon her Adolph Lassen, now a rich bach- olor of 88, satisfled himself that the new | star, over whan not only the patriotic Hungarians, but the Austrians of Buda- post, wore raving, was the daughter of the robbed and murdered friend, Prince I,oais Ndzkl.Ho beard the girl sing, thon sought | an interview, and from that day on the descondant of the vikings bocame ns or- dent as if all his blood came from tropic BOUTCOS.Mona Ndzki knew of him woll and favorably.She was 20 years younger than Lassen, but the tall, hlond glant won her, and she loved him with all the fervor of her ardent nature.The two were married, and to tho great disgust of the gilded youth of Budapest Mona Ndzkl left the stage.Mme.Lassen hated Austria with an undying hate.and she soon suceeded in bringing her husband to feel as sho did.Ho already believed in the Hungarian cause.Three years after thelr marriage, which was in 1840, a daughter was born, and with his dead mother and his Norwegian home ever in mind Adolph Lasson named the child Walborg Ndzki.Lassen met Kossuth and his assoclates and pledged with them hislifoand fortune to tho liberation of Hubgary.At length quiet plotting became open revolt and Lasson, who had been a soldier in his youth, moved his family within the patriot lines and became head of the engineer corps.Ho was declared an outlaw and his property in and about Budapest was cou- fiscatod by tho Austrian authorities.Colonel Lassen did not live to witness the overthrow of tho Hungarians and the tightening of the chaips.He was killed in one of the battles that destroyed tne power of Kossuth and withered the hopes of the patriots.When the end came, Mme.Lassen and her little daughter were practically friend- Jess und actually penniless, and she would have suffered had not her mother\u2019s kinsmen, the gypsies, cowe to her assistance, She was still young, beautiful and gifted, | and it

within a year sho achieved a grand success in opera nt La Scaln in Milan, Afterward they went to Romo, where a young nobleman, an attache of the Aus- \u201ctrian logation, became so attentive to the fair singer as to attract the attention of an indifferent public and to rousn the jealousy of La Fluera, whom Walborg had come to hate, It 1s said a duel was fought down the was found there dead and with a purple spot above his heart.Soon after this the young Austrian, Graf von Lederer, was recalled to Vienna, whither Walborg Ndzki\u2014this was her nom do theatre\u2014fol- lowed, Two months afterward the count and Walborg were married and the best society of the Austrian capital professed to be very : much shocked nt the young man's recklessness and the audacity of what they called \u2018the young adventuress.\"* That the count loved his wife Is pretty certain, but there is not n doubt og to his weakness.After six months he permitted his friends to secure à divorce for him.He was never married again, and was killed a fow years after at the battle of Sadowa, But a still greater change was about to come to the life of Walborg Ndzki.It seems that when sao was singing at Milan the Grand Duchess Charlotte, wife of Maximilian, brother of the Austrian emperor, heard her nnd became charmod with her grace and beauty.And now tho attention of the grand duchess was enlled to her ngnin by her divorce from Graf von Lederer.Taking advantage of the civil war in the United States, the French emperor had in- sadod Mexico and had offered Maximilian the throne of the Montezumas.by lis brilliant and ambitious wife, Maximilian consented to become emperor of Mexico, and at obco a court was organized in Vienna snd bogan its dress rehearsals.The embryo empress sought out Walborg

less than 50 cents.\u201cTHE TELEPHONE SITUATION.\u201d Prominence is given to an an article under the above heading in the editorial columns of the Couticook Observer of the 1st inst.In its way it is an able article, and it goes without saying, was written by Mr.W.c.Scott, inspector of the Bell company.For that reason it should have no influence with the \u2018\u2018striking\u201d subscribers.The article argues that the company have been doing business in Stanstead county at a loss, which we shall not deny as we know nothing about it.We are, however, oppoced to Mr.Scott\u2019s method of re- restoring an \u2018\u2018equilibrium between receipts and expenditure,\u201d viz: by imposing tolls upon subscrsbers for talking wiih non-subscribers, and for messages ouiside of the county.Then again, if this method was to be resorted to, it would have been in the interest of the company to have consulted as many of the subscribers as possible, and had a friendly understanding instead of publishing their \u201claw,\u201d and giving the people to understand they can \u2018like it or lump it.\u201d Human nature may like to be humbugged but it objects to being bull-dozed.It is a matter of regret that the pleasant relations formerly existing between the Bell company and their subscribers have been shattered, and we believe a reasonable compromise might have been effected had the Bell company selected some other diplomatist.That the Bell company has given us a good service no one disputes, and we agree with Mr.Scott (excuse us, the Observer) that more than one telephone is a nuisance.It is a pity that the greed of humanity is such that opposition is necessary.Theannoyance of two telephones causes many to forget to what extent they are indebted to the opposition, without which rates wouid be doubled and quadrupled while the service would be impaired because many would give up their instruments.These statements are verified bs the condition of the telephone business in the United States.Mr.Scott (excuse us, the Observer) says that * the subsubscribers have never \u201chad by contract the rights of which \u2018they are now to be deprived.They \u201chave never been paid for, but were tg gift by the company.\u201d In what way is such generosity on the part of the company accounted for?They gave it because the opposition did and they had to.can it be possible that their object has been to put the price so low as to kill all opposion, and then gradually raise to extortionate rates?It is of the utmost importance that the subscribers should win two points in the present strife; i.e., the privilege of talking with non-subscribers by payment of messenger fee only; and the privilege of communication with Sherbrooke and intervening points without the payment of tolls.If the company wins in this respect we may expect no mercy from them in the future.Supposing the \u2018\u2018strike\u2019\u201d lasts tor months the loss to the subscribers, especially at this season, will be small compared with the company\u2019s loss.Even if they are a wealthy corporation they have no money to throw away.It has always been our policy to give the evil one his due, and for this reason we mention one way in which we think the company has been imposed upon.We refer to the manner in which some subscribers have allowed their instruments to be used by non-subscribers and employés for personal messages.While such uses are subject to tolls some subscribers have encouraged this abuse, concealing the identity of the person, thus imposing upon the company\u2019s rights.Such violations of the contract have, we believe, been made for want of a proper understanding of the situation rather than from any other cause, as the subscriber profits nothing by it.It may be unreasonable to ask for a lower rental, but it is not unreasonable to ask for a continuance of former privileges respecting tolls, and subscribers are warned against swallowing any sugar-coated pill prepared by Mr.Scott even if it does appear as an editorial in a county newspaper.Sir Oliver Mowatt is more \u2018canny than Mr.Taillon, who resigned his premiership of the Legislature of Que- Bec and accepted a position in Sir chas.Tupper\u2019s cabinet, provided the Conservatives prevail.Sir Oliver has made a contrast with Mr.Laurier, in \u201cwhich, if the Liberal chief prevails, he is to have a seat in the Senate, not : venturing to try a constituency for \"the House.This does riot show much \u201cconfidence on the part of the Premier of Ontario that his friends will sweep

William Fraser of Fontenoy, was badly cut in the face by hail stones.The storm was accompanied by a strong north wind and evidently passed over a portion of this county, striking Stanstead between five and six o\u2019clock.We hear of no particular damage in this part of the county.There was a little hail and quite a heavy fall of rain, withshowers in the evening, brightening vegetation.At the north ov northwest of this section, the storm appeared to be accompanied by a heavy wind.At Yamaska the ground was covered with hail about the size of pigeon eggs, which broke some glass in windows, and was followed by a heavy shower of rain.The Quebec Premiership.Hon.E.J.Flinn, Q.C., L.L.D; a member of the Taillon administration | OPENING THE CAMPAIGN.Sir Charles Tupper, accompanied by Hugh John Macdonald, son of the late : 8ir John Macdonald, visited Winnipeg | on the 8th, and were given a royal reception.The Provincial Conservative Association were holding a Convention at Lyceum Theatre, with delegates from each Provincial district, numbering several hundred.At the morning session speeches were delivered by Sir Charles Tupper, Hon.Hugh John Macdonald, and Messrs.Boyd, Nicholas Hood Davin, W.W.McDonald, and others, Sir C.Tupper spoke of the progress of the West, and held that the future of Canada in a large measure depended upon the development of the Northwest.He spoke favorably of the Hudson Bay Railway scheme in the interest of the Northwest, .At the evening session the theatre was packed full.A requisition, signed by two thousand citizens, was presented to H.J.Macdonald asking him to be their candidate at the ensuing election, i rose to speak accepting the nomination.The ovation he received was one he will long remember.He made a reference to the school question, whish he carefully reviewed.He thought an injustice hud been done to the minority, and where the Privy Council of England decided that an | injustice had been done to the Catho- + lie minority, he had taken the position that they were entitled to a reasona- | ble redress.That redress should have \"been given by the Manitoba Govern- \"ment.But because the Manitoba Gov- | ernment found that they could make {capital out of the question, it refused (to give justice, and that refusal had i compelled the Dominion Government {to undertake it.Sir Charles Tupper then addressed \u2018the meeting upon the topics of the | day, showing what the moderate protection policy of the Conservative party had done for Canada.He also re- i ferred to the school question and said .that the rights of minorities must be lprotected, whether Protestants or | Catholics.He appealed to the people of Manitoba to exercise toleration and | the spirit of justice in this school ques- ition.He earnestly desired its settle- !

but Holmes\u2019 object in making the confession was realized; the obtaining of a sum said to be $7500, which amount is said to settled upon the criminal\u2019s 18- year son.Holmes spent much of his last day on earth in consulting with his lawyers.He re-drafted his will for the seventh time.He seemed never satisfled just how to dispose of the property he has to leave behind.The document is now sealed and in the hands of Lawyer Rotan, who will not divulge its contents.Herman Webster Mudgett was born at Gilmanton, N.H., May 16, 1860.On July 4, 1878, he married Clara A.Lov- ering at Alton, N.H.,and on January 28, 1887, nnder the name of Harry Howard Holmes he commited bigamy by marrying Myrta Z.Belkan.A few weeks thereafter Holmes applied in Chicargo for a divorce, and a suit was pending until June 4, 1891, when the Meanwhile Holmes.who had introdue- | | ed Peitzel to the insurance agent, wys \u2018inducad by them to coma to Philadel- | phi and indentify the body.This he did positively, and so did Alice Peitzel the 16 year old daughter of the :deadman.Withthis unequivocal testimony.the insurance company paid \u2018the money.Here the first stage of , of this extraordinary affair came toa \u2018close.The second opened some time after- \u201cwards, when Marion C.Hedpeth, the notorious train-robber,in a gaol at St.Louis declared that Holmes, while im \u2018an adjoining cell, had told him of con- spiray.Peitzel and Howe to swindle a Philadelhia Insurance Company by the substitution of a body.Then followed Holmes\u2019 capture.Holmes was placed on trial in Philadelphia for Peitzel\u2019s murder on Mon- \u2018day, October 28, lust.The trial ended \u2018the following Saturday night in a ver- diet of guilty of murder in the first degree.This is the story of the mur- ider of Benjamin F.Peitzel, but with it is inter woven the scheme and acts which brought about the Killing of at least eight other victims.These were Alice and Nellie Peitzel, the little daughters of Benjamin, who were asphyxiated in a trunk at Tor- .DAIRYMEN WANT NO MIDDLEMEN.The plans adopted at the dairymen\u2019s \u201cmeeting, held at Lansdowne, Ont, | some weeks back for the purpose of investigating the foreign cheese mar- \u201cket, are beginning to assume definite \u2018form.The idea of the dairymen was that there were too many middlemen between manufacturer and consumer, and they thought, by sending \u2018a man to England, to investigate the \u2018matter thoroughly, they might eventually ship direct and save middlemen\u2019s profits.On the 6th inst.a meet- \u2018ing was held in Lansdowne, and the i Lansdowne Dairymen\u2019s Association was organized in the form of a stock company.J.A, Webster, ex-warden \u2018of the county, is president, and Matthew Steacy of Warburton secretary.Money was raised to send an agent to England.The Grand Truuk and Canadian Pa- cific are about to experiment with a new device for carrying bicycles in the baggage cars, in order that they may do away with the complaiuts from wheelmen that their wheels re- ;

[CONTINUED.} \u2018\u2018 And the cold partridge?\u2019 adds she in redoubled astonishment.*\u2018Why, here\u2019s naught left but my pudding and that as cold as a stone.\u2018\u2019 Mr.Godwin, with the candle flaring in bis hand, passed hastily by her, too wrought by fear to regard either the ludicrous or incomprehensible side of Mrs.Butierby's consternation, and so, going down the corridor away from the stairs, he comes to the door of the little buck stairs, standing wide open and seeming to bid bim descend He goes quickly down, yet trembling with fear that he may find her at the bottom, broken by a fall, but all he discovers is the bolt drawn and the door ajar.As he pushes it open a gust of wind blows out the light, and hore he stood in the dark- uess, enger to be doing, yet knowing not which way to twrn or how to act.Clearly, his wife had gone out by this door, and so far this gave support to Simon's statement that he knew where she was, and with this a flume was kindled within him that seemed to sear his very soul.If Simon spoke truth in one particular, why should he lie in other: : Why had his wife refused to go with him to Hatheld?Why had she bid no one come near her room?Why had she gone forth by this secret stair alone?Then, cursing himself for the unnamed suspicion that could thus, though but for a moment, disfigure the fair image that he worshiped, he asked himself why his wife should not be free to follow a caprice.But where was she?Even that question surged upward in the tumult of his thoughts.Where should he seek her?Suddenly it struck him that 4 might help him to find her, and acting instantly upon his hope he made hi: way in breathless haste to the road, and so toward my lodge.Ere he has gone a hundred yards Simon steps out of che shadow and stands before him like a shade in the dimness.\u201cI crave thy pardon, master,\u201d says he bumbly.\u201c\u201cI spoke like à fool in my passion.\u2019 \u201cIf you will crave my pardon, tell me where to find my wife; if not, stand aside,\u2019 answers Mr.Godwin, \u201cWilt thee hear me speak for two minutes if I promise to tell thee where she is and suffer thee to find her how thee willst?\"Twill save thee time.\u2019\u2019 \u2018Speak,\u2019 says Mr.CGrodwin.\u201cThy wife is there,\u201d says Simon under his breath, pointing toward my house.\u2018\u2018She is reveling with Hopkins and Captain Evans, men that she did tramp the country with as vagaboud players ere the Spuniard taught them more profitable wickedness.Knock at the door, which thee mayst be sure is fast, and while one holds thee in parley the rest will set the room in order and find a plausible tale to hondwink thee afresh.Bo guided by me, and thee shalt enter the house unknown to them, as I did an hour since, and there thee shalt know, of thine own senses, how thy wife doth profit by thy blindness.If this truth be not proved, if thee canst then say that I have lied from malice, envy and evil purpose, this knife, * says he, showing a blade in his hand, * this knife will I thrust into my own heart, though I stand the next instant before the Eternal Judge, my hands wet with my own blood, to answer for my crime.\u2018\u201cHavo you finished?\u201d asks Mr.God- win.\u201cNo, not yet.I hold thee to thy promise,\u201d returns Simon, with eager haste.\u201cWhy do men lic?For their own profit?What profit have I in lying, when I pray you to put my word to the proof, and not tako it on trust, with the certainty of punishment even if the proof be doubtful?You believe this woman what she pretends tobe.What does that show?Your simplicity\u2014not hers.How would women trick their husbands without such skill to blind them by a pre- tenso of love and virtue?\u201d \u2018Say no more,\u201d cries Mr.Godwin hoarsely, *\u2018or I may strangle you before you pass trial.Go your devilish way.I'll follow.\u201cNow God bo praised for this!

Which I fear huth grown a little want- gin love for yo since I have been mated.But, though my dear Dick draws 50 deeply from my well of affection, there is still somewhere down here\u2019 (elapping her hand upon her heart), \u2018\u2018a Source that first sprang for you and can uever dry.Aye, and \u2018tis a proof.\u201d says he, your coming here where we may speak and act without restraint, though it be but for five minutes, - RR \u201cFive minutes!\u201d cries she, springing up with her natural vivacity.\u2018Why, I'll not leave you before the morning, unless you weary of me.\u2019\u2019 And then, with infinite relish and sly humor, she told of her device for leaving the court without suspicion, I do coufess I was at first greatly alarmed for the safe issue of this escapade, but she assuring me \"twas à dirty night, and she had passed uo one on the road, I felt a little reassured.To be sure, thinks I, Mr.Godwin, by some accident, muy retwrn, but finding her gone and hearing Captain Evans keeps me to my house he must conclude she has come hither and think no harm of her for that neither, seeing wo are old friends snd sobered with years, for \u2018tis the most natural thing in the world that, feeling lonely and dejected for the loss of her husband, she should seek such harmless diversion as may be had in our society.However, for the sake of appearances, I thought it would be wise to get this provision of ham and birds out, for fear of misadventure, and also I took instant precaution to turn the key in my street door.Being bat two men, and neither of us overnice in the formalities, 1 had set a cheese, a lonf and a bottle betwixt us on the bare table of my offico room, for each to serve himself as he would, but I now proposed that, having a lady in our company, wo should pay more regard to the decencies by going up stairs to my parlor, and there laying a tablecloth and napkins for our repast.** Aye, certainly I\u2019 cries Moll, who had grown mighty fustidious in these particulars since she had been mistress of Hurst Court.\u201cThis dirty table wonld poil the best appetite in the world.So I carried a fagot and some apple logs up stairs and soon had a brave fire leaping up the chimney, by which time Moll and her father, with abundant mirth, had set forth our victuals on a clean white cloth, and to each of us a clean plate, knife and fork, most proper.Then, all things being to our hand, we sat down and made a most hearty mea.of Mrs.Butterby\u2019s good cheer, and all three of us as merry as grigs, with nou a shadow of misgiving.There had seemed something piteous to me in thu «appeal of Moll's that she might bo herself for this night, and indeed 1 marveled now how she could have 80 trained her natural disposition to an artificial manner and could no longer wonder at the look of fatigue and weariness in her face on her return from London, For the old reckless, careless, daredevil spirit was still alive in her, as I could plainly see now that she aban- doued herself entirely to the free sway of impulse.The old twinkle of mirth and mischief was in her eyes, she was no longer a fine lady, but a merry vagabond again, and when she laughed \u201ctwus with her hands clasping her sides, her head thrown back and all her white teeth gleaming in the light.\u201cNow,\u201d says I, when at length onr meal was finished, \u2018I will clear the table.\u2018 \u201cHoop!\u201d cries she, catching up the corners of the tablecloth and flinging them over the fragments.\u2018 \u2019Tis done.et y1s draw round the fire and tell old tudes, Here's a pipe, dear dad.I love the smell of tobuceo, and yon,\u2019 to me, \u201cdo feteh me a pipkin that I may brew a good drink to keep our tongues going.\u2019 About the time this drink was brewed Simon, leading Mr.Godwin by acir- cuitous way, eune through the garden |! to the buck of the house, where was a door, which I hud never opened for lack of a key to fit the lock.This key was How in Simon's hand, and putting it with infinite care into the hole he softly turned the wards.Then, with the like precaution, he lifts the latch and gently thrusts the door open, listening at every inch to catch the sounds within.At length tis opened wide.Then, turning his face to Mr.(Godwin, who waits behind, sick with mingled shame and creeping dread, he beckons him to follow, Above Dawson was singing at the top of his voice a sea song he had learned of a mariner at the inn he frequented at; Greenwich, with a troll at the end, taken up by Moll and me, and to hear his wife's voice bearing part in this rude song made Mr, Godwin's heart to sink within him.Under cover of this noise Simon mounted the stairs without hesitation, Mr.(todwin following at his heels in a kind of sick bewilderment.\"Twas dark up there, and Simon, stretching forth his hands to know if Mr.God- win was by, touched his hand, which wus deadly cold and quivering, for here at tho door he was seized with a sweat- | ing faintness, which so sapped his vigor that he was foreed to hold by the wall to suve himself from falling.\u2018Art thee ready?\" asks Simon, but he can get no answer, for Mr.Godwin\u2019s energies, quickened, by a word from Simon pushes wide open the door.within like a jaded Least by the sting of u whip, is straining his eurs to catch what is passing within.And what nears he?The song is ended, and Dawson ories: 2 , \u201cYon han't lost your old Izimek of | know not what you ask.As well might ;

looked into the next room, where she saw her husband sitting, with his chin upon his breast and his hands folded upon his knee before the dead fire.Then, wrapping his cloak.about her, she steals toward the outer door, but passing him she must needs pause at his buck to stanch her tears a moment and look down upon him for the last time.The light shines in his brown hair, and, she bending down till | her lips touch a stray curl, they part silently, and she.with yearning affection, bids him from her very soul a mute \u201cFare thee well, dear love!\" But she will wait no longer, fearing her
