Miss De Burgh had no idea of the enâ€" @agement between Miss Hamilton and Walter Bohun, for the two still kept it a profound secretâ€"and she was not disâ€" pleased on that happy cvening to read something more than admiration in the young man‘s face. For, with all the strength of her warm passionate nature, Inez loved Walter Bohun, and she had resolved that he should return her love; she had loved him from the first moment she saw him by the brookâ€"side. 4 Walter was simple and inexperienced ; he did not know the charm that drew him constantly to the Hall; the glamour of love was him. He had made one mistake in lrmd now he was to make a greater. He had mistaken the quiet brotherly affection he had always felt Florence had noticed the long teteâ€"aâ€" tete, and the admiring look that her lover bent upon their hostess. A sharp pang of jealousy shot through the girl‘s heart as she saw Walter‘s impassioned It was half reluctantly that Walter wqpllod;.h wanted to remain near this dariing Circe who had captivated and enâ€" tralled him. A few weeks since he would have asked from Fortune nothing better than to be with Florence. Now the schhought of leaving the radiant girl by is side for conversation or a dance with his betrothed was wearisome. He had tasted the charmed cup. ‘‘That is hardly fattering to your old friends Mr. Bohun. Seeâ€"there is Florâ€" ence looking at us with eyes full of wonâ€" der! Let us join her." ‘‘At whose call?"" she asked, with an air of innocenca that she knew well how to assume. ‘‘Can you ask me, Miss De Burgh?! I seem to perceive beauty and grace for the first time." Do not go into raptures, Mr. Bohun," she interrupted, laughing. "I am rather amused. I should hardly hays thought you capable of mppreciating anything but sober jors _ My own case is different, I contess honehly that 1 like excitement of all kinds. The. only Approach to A fault that I have noticed in you is that you seem too aulet."‘ _ ‘‘Ah, you do not know me! I feel as though Iâ€" hadâ€"awakened from a "long decp sleep."* F "I am not a ‘sober joy.‘ I suppose,‘" she returned, with a pretty pout. ‘‘You, Miss De Burgh? You are fasâ€" cination itsifâ€"irresistible; you areâ€"‘* ""I should never tire of waltzing with you," declared Walter. "I would give years of life‘s sober joys for one such halfâ€"hour as this." "I am never tired of waltzing," she said as they siood for a few minutes watching the happy couples as the went floating by. â€" â€" Inez opened the ball with Lord Beas dale, then Walter claimed ber for i waltz. The music, the perfumes, the flashing jewels, the waving plumes, and the beautiful women all brought to bim a sense of enchantment. When the notes of the waltz sounded and he moved to #te music with Miss De Burgh, he was fascinated beyond expression. Her lusâ€" trous eyes were raised to his. ber red lips were parted with the sweetest of smiles, Florence was bewildered by the coup & asil that the ballâ€"room presented; but she and Walter were more than bewildâ€" ered when Inez stood before them, her Fradiant face bright with smiles of welâ€" eomie,. Walter hud never seen Mias Da Eurgb bei,;o in eveningâ€"Uress, and he was literally u«zzled by ber bewitching besuty. A robe of white satin gleamod through the white Tae@ that shrouded its bright folds, a coronet of diamonds lay inid the dark wary masses of balt, a diaâ€" mond necklace enciroled the shaf)aly throat, diamonds gleamed on the hbare arms. In the bodice of her dress he wore one crimeon camellia, and that was the only show of color which relieved her attire. She was indeed a vision of loveâ€" lineas. Florence â€" hardly _ recognized herself when she gave the final look in the large mirror. The bright glistening silk was softened by rich white lace; the fuir face, gsually so calm and trangail, | was fushed with excitement; there was a light in her eyes which came from hopes ms brigho as they were beautiful. The: thick colls of lightâ€"brown hair were woven and placed like a coroget round the graceful begd, The wellâ€"shaped arms and neck rivalied the ,paurls that gleamâ€" ed upon them. A fair yision of loveliâ€" mess was Florence Hamilton «1 she stood in ber ballâ€"dres«. fer mother and lover were both proud of ber. The ball was the first Florence ever aitended, usd for some days pregiously she had been in what was lurker aD extraordinary flutter of excitement. Mrs. Hamiiton, remembering her own youthâ€" ful days, had perbaps exceeded her inodâ€" est means in purchaing the pretty dress that Florence wore. <he eould not proâ€" cure new ornaments, but she placed the parure of pearls thit bad been a wedding present from her busband in Florence‘s bands as the only gift she could offer her The pretty pink dress and the gleaming pearls had a very simple and effective tollette. Florence Hamilton liked her new friend exceedingly, and Inez was not less fond of the fair gentle English â€"girl who was in every respect so great a contrast to berself. Mrs. Hamiiton and Florence at first felt unwonted pleasure that Walter had found new and congenial friends. Inez visited them froquently, and was never more happy than when she could perâ€" suade Florence to pass the day with ber; and Waler would often join thein in their ram bles through the forest of Charnâ€" ley. A great intimacy had sprung up beâ€" tween the family at the Hall and the Rectory people. Sir Hubert had taken a great fancy to the young beir of the Bohuns; be felt both pity and indignaâ€" tiion as his isolated condition. In bis sarly youth be had known Sir Thornton â€"â€"they had been young men of fashion together. He counld not understand how the Baronet couid allow his heir to reâ€" main in such an obscure villago as Oulâ€" stop, and he resolved to do all in his m- to atone for the old Baronet‘s negâ€" The consequence was that Waiter mow spent some hours every day at the Hall, riding and fishing with Sir Huâ€" bert, driving with him over the estate, and gleaning from bim many valusble hints concerning the management of landed property. Bir Hubert had been profuse in bis fuvitations; all the hu::s familles of the country were there, the sedate es un i. hume e aet on been forgotten. was as were Mrs. Hamititon and _ Florence, escorted by Walter Bobun. ture and the blush that covered Inez‘s were all new and of rare and rich design.

Nor did he rpeak of his prospects, his new estates, or the houses that it ‘Florence wrote to Walter and he re plied. His letters were always kind and affectionate, very much ike the letters of & brother to m sister; but, if Florence hnz known the world better, she would haÂ¥o recognized that there was little in them that bespoke the lover. Of late however even these epistles bad grown rarer, Sometimes two or three woeks would elapse, and then a hurried little mote would come saying how much the writer was onp.pd._ j Long dreary months np‘n-d. and there was as yet no time fxed for Walter‘s return. Neither had the De Burgh fam ily given any intimation of coming to the Hall. Some weeks afterwards the family at the Hall left Oulston to spend the end of the seagon in London. Inez called to say goodâ€"bye to Florence and Mrs. Hamâ€" jlton. Sne thougbt the former cold and constrained in her manmner, and so did not, as she had intended, ask her to write to her while she remained in town. The village seemed quiet and deserted now, and poor Florence begin to count the days which must elapse before her lover feturned. She little thought that Walter Bohun and herself would never meet in Oulston again. *‘Perhaps 1 do now,"" she replied. ‘ We are going to London nétt month, and then I may tell you more about it." Walter pressed his lips upon the banc that ha held in his and want away, th music of her words ringing in his car«. ‘‘Now, Walter," cried Sit Hubert "are you ready?" â€" She reperted the words @lowly after him, a deep blush covering hr face. ‘‘Will you try to like me, Inez!"" he whispered. _ ‘‘What would you like me to say?"‘ she asked amilingly. Hia face grew pale with emotion. ‘‘Say, ‘Goodâ€"bye dear Walter; I will try to like you.‘ * ‘‘Yes; let ms take one kind word with me to cbeer and brighten the way. ‘ Then he hurried to the Hall. Sir Huâ€" bert entered heartily into his affaira Inez stood listening, with a dreamy softâ€" ened expression on her face, Sir Huber! loft thein to eay adieu while be ordered the dogâ€"cart, intending to drive Walte: to the station bimself. + "Goodâ€"bye, Walter," she responded quletly; and her lins quivered and her eyes grew dim with tears as she spoke. ‘"Ko you are ‘going to London, Mr Bohun?"‘ said Inez. Only the day before he had kissed with far greater ardor n rosebud that Incz had touched ! . "I have not a moment to apare, Florâ€" ence,"" he said. ‘"I shall write to you bhowever when I reach London. Goodâ€" bys, dear;" and he put his lips lightly to hers. While affairs wars in this unsatisfac tory state a new career was dawning for Walter Bohun. A message came one morning summoning him to London, where sir Thornton lay dying ‘at his town house. He bad wished at last to see his longâ€"neglected helr. There was but little time for uttering farewells. Walter went first to the cotâ€" tage and told his news. e q O e en ane _ The calm face grew pale and sad, the doveâ€"like eyes had a deep shadow beâ€" neath thein, there was a ring of pain in every word thit fell from her lips. Not that she thought yet of the worst ‘that might happen. She was jealous and unâ€" bappy, and, though she visited Inez, at times there was something like anger springing up in her heart for her beauâ€" tiful rival. But Florence saw Jt all. The gentle fuithful beart was stung to the quick. His love had been her life, her hope, her all; her mother had thought very much of it, and bad rejoiced in the future that she believed her child would enjoy. Ah, why had this radiant beauty, with her proud face, come to take her lover from her? Florence wept passionate bitter tears. Surely Miss De Burgh, with her anclent lineagze. ber noble nafe. her bright loveliness, might have been happy with one of the peers she had talked about! Wiy must she step in and luse Walter from her? Outwardly things went on as usual; but in reality Walter bad awakensd to the knowledge that he loved the beautiâ€" ful Inez de Burgh with a devotion to which he could set no limit. The affecâ€" tion he had entertained for Florence was as different from his overpowering allâ€"mastering love as moonlight from sunlight. He would have given a year of bis life for one loving word from the haughty lips. 16 was first love, without reason, without control, without anyâ€" thing save its own violence. Stlll no word did he utter of love to the one girl, while materially he did not change to the other. It was very slowly that the truth dawned upon Florena#; but she could nok avold seeing it at lengtb. Walter‘s visits to the cottage besame lest freâ€" quentâ€"he seemed to live at the Hall. She bad met bim riding with Inez in the green lanes, and they had pulled up and spoken to her. But on such occaâ€" slons she did mot like the light on the beautiful face or the air of confusion with which ber lover met hor. thought of the events of the evening, she did not feel antisfied. There was something new and strange about Waltet. Yot the next evening he came as usual, and was kind and affectionate in hbis manner.

Hamiltonâ€"and you will then be able to thank me for having procured you » ‘sober joy.‘ * Thlto'llllll‘i‘fl’.d sarcasm in her voice; yet, slight as it was, it gave fresh impulse to Waiter‘s new train of feeling. _ 0 its It was with no little embarrassment thas 8ir Waiter Bohun inquired of Dooâ€" tor Marsh how Mrs. Hamilton and Florâ€" ence were. *They have left Oulston,"" answered the Reotor mlly;“;‘n;l..llr !lm ex» press an opinion, ter, I should ::""'m'““"‘" themâ€" honered hy hearing that you have once informed Mrs. Hamilton. ‘‘Mother,‘‘ sail Florence when the Rector had taken his departure, "I bave forgiven him, but do not let me see him again. I must not look upon his face or hear his volce. Let me go away from here; it would kill me to stay.‘‘ Accordingly the pleasant little home was broken up, and the mother and f@aughter went to London to reside with a cousin of Mrs. Hamilton‘s Four months after the marriage a Amor came to Oulston that Sit Walter and Lady Bohun were about to visit Burgh Hall, to spend some weeks there. Very slowly the girl regained health and strength and took up the dutiles of life once more; but she was changed. A eweet patient gravity never left her; the suffering through which she nad passed seemed to have robbed her of youth, and all interest in life. No faise hope deâ€" ceived her. She knew that the one love of her life had been shattered, that the jJoys of existence were ended; but she tried bravely to live down the past and to devote her thoughts to the dutiea of the present and the future, It was well, the Ractor and Mrs. Hamilton agreed, that the engagement had never been made public, and, out of consideration for the unhappy girl, they decided that Walter Bobun should be allowed to go unpunished and the seore§ should remain a secret still; so that no one in OQulston knew that Florence bad loved, had been betrothed to, and forâ€" saken by Sir Walter Bohun. But he did not see Florence; the genâ€" tle heart, though strong to bear. was crushed and broken. She had gathered together every memento of her betrayed love, every dower which Walter had given her, and which she had carefully preserved, every letter he had written, the Inst violets they bad gathered toâ€" gother in the fir wood, and had made a parcel of them and on the inner wrapâ€" ing she had written in a trembling gnnd, ‘‘I forgive you. Heaven bless you and make you happy!‘‘ Then she ssnt it to the young Baronet; and after this the sorelyâ€"tried spirit gave way. When the Rector called to express his indignation and his sympathy, poor Florence lay fighting hard for dear life. Dr. Marsh called upon them. He had felt unwilling at first to see the girl whom his pupil had so cruelly wronged. He was a man of unblemished honor; he considered Waiter more criminal even than if he bad stolen Mrs. Hamilton‘s purse or forged her name. It was reluctâ€" antly that he went into the house upon which so dark a shadow had fallen. "I would not have a son of mine marry a girl descended, as Inez de Burgh is, from a gipsyâ€"mother. He will live to repent it, as you will see.‘ _ "It is such a suitable match,‘"" they agreed ; ‘Miss De Burgh is so beautiful, and Sir Walter so rich|" They were astonished when â€" Mre. Hamliton, unable to bear the conversaâ€" tloy_nny longer, said angrily:â€" Soon after the unhappy girl lay ill on a couch and heard the pealing of the bells rung in honor of the marriage of Miss De Burgh, which was célebrated in London. For days afterwards she rose and listened with an aching heart to the gossip of the many visitors who came to discuss the wedding. Ab, how thankful she was now that her fatal engagement bad been kept so profound a secret! How little the unconscious callers who wonâ€" dered at Mrs. Hamilton‘s want of symâ€" pathy with the topic that engrossed them guossed that the pale girl who listened so quletly to their comments had been the promised wife of the man whom they praised so warmly ! â€" ‘ *‘Mamma,"‘ interrupted the Eoor girl, ‘‘you will kill me if you speak harshly of him! I do not think be is so much to blame. He had seen no one but me when he thougbt be loved me; now he has mingled with the world, and finds I am mot suited to him. I am not beautiful and gifted."" Here the speaker‘s yoice faltered,, her lips quivered, and the girl‘a wounded heart found relief in a passionâ€" ate burst of tears, Mrs. Hamilton was obliged for the present to control her hot angry indignaâ€" tlon; she saw that Florence could not bear to listen to it. *‘*Do not say such things, my dear!" cried her mother indignantly. ‘"He is a treacherousâ€"‘‘ She felt the hottest indignation n}nlm the man who had trampled the life and love of ber darling child beneath his feet. They had not sought kim; he bad come voluntarily and asked Florence to be his wife. He had taught the poor girl to love bim, be had made every wish and hove of her baart his own. and now a *‘‘Mammg,‘‘ said a feeble volce, ‘‘do not look -J angry; it was my fault I ought to have seen long ago that Walter loved her best.‘‘ fairer face had taken him from her. He Lad broken the most solemn promise a man could make; what was to atone to her child, what was to heal ber bruised, bleeding heart? For a few minutes the mother felt Inclined to prociaim her wrong® to the world, to ocver the traitor with sharoe and confusion. It was cruel, almost bearticss, written by a man who knew not how to excuse his breech of honor. Involuntarily Mrs. Hamilton‘s hand tightened on the paper. *‘ My poor fathcriess girl!‘‘ she cried. ‘‘If we had had some one to protect us, he would not have dared to treat you nappler as you are than it you had sharei the life of one so infeii>r to you and so unworthy of you as myssif.‘‘ becurtmore.
