He whs a miser to the core, mean beyond all adinarv lueauuess. halt moukey, half tiger ill his nature, and her plump ness and prettyness, her round, black eyes, her faltering voice, aud timid manner datl their work. He fell in love, aud before thiit first fever of that hot farcT had time to cool, liad made her Lady Dangerfield, aud him- self miserable for lite She was ntthing that he thoaeht her, and everything that he thought her not. She was a vixen, a Kate who no earthly Petrochio could tame. She despised him, she Isughed at him she was master aud mistress both.she flirted, she squandered his money like water, what did she not do And the twins, kept in the background in the halcyon days of courtship, were all at once brought forward, the black frock was thrown aoide, gay tartans, musin and silks bought, aud a goverutss en- gaged. 'Scarswood was thrown open to the county, a house in May-fair lessed, parties, dinners, concerts, operas â€" the whole round of fashion- able life run. And her poor relatives fii ed upon him like barnacles on a boat. Tlie earl of Ruysland made his bous es. bis horses, liis servants, bit cooks hit banker his own, without a thought of gratitude, a word of tbsnks. His wife sneered at him, her high titled re- Islives ignored him. raeu blackbaled bin at their clubs, and the milk of houfu kiadiias^ ha1 turned to biittor- miik in his breast. He became a mis anthnpo, and buried himsalf down at St-trswood, did humbly ae his lady onler«d him, and took, as you have lieur.l hsr say, to impaling butterflies on pins.

Only fiaa short words, but Lady Cecil laid down har book and looked up s'lrprised into sudden iuiereet. It was such a sweet voice â€" so deep, eo clear, so musical in ita tunbre. She looked up and saw a tall, a very tall yoaug woman, dressed in plain dark coloars, sink into the seat lady Dan- gerfield had imlioatad by a ware of her pearl gloved hand.
