If you can soften him, Mr. Hope shall soften papa.” “but if lie is too headstrong to he softened'*” faltered Walter. “Then.” said Mary, “vou must defy my papa, and I shall defy vours.” "After a moment's thought she said; “Walter. 1 shall stay here till lie sees me and you together; then lie won't be aide to run oil about Ids mines, and Ids lawsuits, and such rubbishy things, llis attention will he attracted to our love, and so vou will have it out with 1dm, whilst 1 retire a little way—not far— and meditate upon Mr. Hope's strange words, and ponder over many tilings that have happened within my "recollec-

True to tins poliev. tlie spirited girl waited till Colonel Clifford came on the green, and then made Walter as perfect a courtesy as ever graced a minuet at tlie court'of Louis le Urund. Walter took off his hattoher with chivalrie grace and respect. Colonel Clifford drew up in a still military attitude. which flavored rather or tlie parade or the field of battle than tlie court either of the great monarch or of little Cupid.

“Hutu!" said the Colonel, dryly; “a petticoat!” “Et cetera." suggested Walter, meekly; and we think he was right, for a petticoat lias never in our day been tlie only gannent worn by females, nor even Hie most characteristic; iisliermen were petticoats, and don't wear bonnets. “Who is she, sir'.*” asked the grim Colonel. “Your niece, father.” said Walter, mellifluous!) , "and tiie most beautiful girl in Derbyshire.” The Colonel snorted, but didn't condescend to go into the question of beauty. “Why did my niece retire at sight of me?” was Ids insidious reply. “Well,” said Walter, meekly, “the truth is. some mischief-making i'oolhas been telling her that you have Install natural affection for your dead sister's child.” The stout Colonel staggered foramoment. snorted, and turned it off. “You and she are very often together, it seems.” “All the better for me,” said Walter, stoutly. “And all the worse for me,” retorted the Colonel. And as men gravitate toward their leading grievance, he went off at a tangent, “What do you think my feelings must be, to see my son, my only son, spooning the daughter of my onlv enemy; of a knave who got on my land on pretense of farming it, but instead of that he burrowed under the soil like a mole, sir; and now the place is defiled with coal dust, tlie roads are black, tlie sheep are black, tlie daisies and buttercups are turning black. There's a smut on your nose, Walter. I forbid yon to spoon Ids daughter, upon pain of a father's curse. My real niece. Julia, is a lady and an heiress, and the beauty of tlie county. She is tlie girl for you.” “And how about the seventh commandment?” inquired Waiter, putting Ii s hands in his pockets. “Oh,” said tlie Colonel, indifferently, “you must mind your eye, like other husbands. Hut in our walk of life it's tlie man's fault if tlie woman falls out of tlie ranks.” “That’s not what I mean.” said Waiter. “What do you mean, then, if you mean anything at all?” “I mean this, father. She marries Percy Fitzroy in three weeks; so if 1 lix my affections on her up to tlie date of the wedding, shall 1 not lie tempted to continue, and will not a foolish attachment to another man's sweetheart end in a vicious aUachment to anolliei man's wife?” Once more was the Colonel staggered fora moment, and. oil—as tlie ladies say—is it not gratifying to find that where honest reasons go for nothing, humbug can obtain a moment's hearing? The Colonel admitted there was something in that; hut even humlmg could not divert him long from his mania. “The only thing to be done.” said lie, “is to cut him out between this and then. Why. he stands five feet nothing.” “That’s tlie advantage lie has over me,” suggested Walter; “she is live feet eiglit or thereabouts, so lie is just the height of her heart.” The Colonel burst out laughing. “You are no fool,” said lie; “that's the second good tiling you have said tlie.se three years. I forget what tlie other was, nut I remember it startled me at the time. You are a wit, and you will cut out that manikin or you are no son of mine.” “Don't say that, father,” said Walter: “and cutting out. why, that's a naval ojM^utiou. not military. 1 am not tlie son of an admiral.” “No equivocation, sir; tlie forces assist one another at a pinch.” “How can I cut him out?—there is no room, he is tied to her apron strings.” “Untie him, then.” At this moment, whether because Hope attracted everybody in tlie course of the day, or because "tajking about
people draws them to tlie niace by some subtle agency, who should appear in sigli hut Mis's Julia Clifford, and little Fitzroy wooing tier to closely that really he tlid seem tied so her apron strings. “There,” said Walter, “now use your eyes, father; look at this amorous pair. Do you really think it is possible for a fellow to untie those twor* “t^uite possible,” said tlie Colonel. “Walter,” said lie. sententiously,“there’s a little word in tlie English "language which is one of the biggest. I w ill spell it to you, T—R—Y. Nobody knows what he can do till lie gives that word a fair trial. It was far more ininossilile to scale tlie rock of Gibraltar; but our infantry did it; and there we are, with all Europe grinding their teeth at us. What's a woman compared witli Gibraltar? However, as you seem to Ik* a bit of a muff, I'll stand sentinel whilst you cut him out.” Tlie Colonel then retired into a sort
of ambuscade—at least lie mingled with a small clump of three Scotch firs, and stood amongst them so rectilinear lie might have passed for the fourth stump. Waller awaited the arrival of the foe, hut in a spirit which lias seldom conducted men to conquest and glory, for if the English infantry had deviated so far from their insular habits as to admire the Spaniards, you may he sure that Gibraltar rock at this day would he a part of the continent,and iiot a detached fragment of Great Britain. In a word. Walter, at sight of the lovers, was suddenly seized with sentimental sympathy: they both seemed to him so beautiful in their way. The man was small, but his heart was not: lie stuck to the woman like a man. and poured hot love into her ears, and almost lost the impediment in his sneech. The woman pretended to he cooler, but she half turned her head toward him. and her half-closed eyes and heightened color showed she was drinking every word. Her very gayety, though it affected nonchalance,"revealed happiness to such as can read below the surface of her sex. The Colonel’s treacherous ally, after gazing at them with marked approval, and saying, "I couldn’t do it better myself,” which was surely a great admission fora lover to make, slipped quietly into Hope’s workshop not to spoil sport—a juvenile idea which we recommend to older persons, and to such old maids as have t urned sour. The great majority of old maids are mutch-makers, whatever cant may keep saying and writing to the contrary. 8 No wonder at all,” said Percy, who was evidently in the middle of some amorous speech; “you are the goddess of my idolatry.” “What ardent expressions, you do use!" said Julia, smiling. “Of c—course I do; I'm over head and ears in love.” Julia surveyed his proportions, and said, “That's not very deep.” But Percy had got iised to this kind of wit, and did not mind it now. lie replied with dignity; “It's as deep—as tlie ocean, and as iinp—per—t—t—tur— balfle. Confound it! there's your cous-
in.”
“You are not jealous of him. Mr. Imperturbable, are you?” asked Julia,slyly. “Jealous?” said Percy, changing color rather suspiciously; “certainly not. Hang him!" Walter, finding he was discovered, and feeling himself in the way, came out at the back behind them, and said, “Never mind me, you two; far he it from me to deprive the young of their innocent amusements.” Whilst making this little speech ho was going off on tlie points of his toes, intending to slip off to Clifford Hall,and tell Ins father tuat l>oth cutting out and untying had proved impossible; but. to ins horror, the Colonel emerged from ids ambuscade and collared him. Then took place two short contemporaneous dialogues: Julia. “I’d never] Colmxtl Clifford. marrv a jealous,"Well, why don’t man.’’ you cut him out?” /'■ .. "I never “They could ho jealous, seem so happy withI’m above it. Im-out it.” possible for a na-| Colonel Clifford. hire like mine tobej“You are a muff, jealous.” I’ll do it for you. I Forward!” Colonel Clifford then inarched down and seated himself in the chair Hope had made for him. Julia sinv him. and whispered Percy: ‘Ah! her"s Uncle Clifford, lie is going to marry to Walter. Never mind you are not jealous.” Percy turned yellow. “Well,” said Colonel Clifford to all whym it might concern, “this certainly is tne most comfortable chair in England. These fools of upholsterers never make the bottom of the chair long enough, hut Mr. Hope has made this to run under a gentleman's knees and su|>port him. He's a clever fellow. Julia, my dear, there's a garden chair for you; come and sit down by me.” Julia gave a sly look at Percy, and went to Colonel Clifford. She kissed him on the forehead to soften tlie coming negative, and said: "To tell you the truth, dear uncle. 1 have promised to go down a coal mine. See! I'm dressed accordingly.” "Go down a coal mine!” said the Colonel. contemptuously. “What fool put that idea in your head?” Fitzr »y sti utte l foi ward like a 1 ra-tam-cock. "1 did, sic. Coal is a very interesting product.”
“ \ v, to a cook.”
“To every English g—gentleman.” “I disown that imputation for one.” “Of being an English g—gentleman?” There was a general titter at this sly
hit. ^
“No. sir,” said tlie Colonel, angrily—

"Well,” said the Colonel, loftily, “and can’t you sav yon have been down a coal mine? 1 could say that and sit here. Well, sir, you have been reading the newspapers, and learning them off by heart as if they were the Epistle and Gospel; of course you must go down a coalmine; but if you do, have a little mercy on the fair,"and go down by yourself. In the mean while, Walter, you can take your cousin and give her a walk in the woods, and show her tlie
primroses.” Now Julia was surprised and pleased at Percy's good sense, and she did not rare whether he got it from tlie newspapers or where he got it from; it was there; so she resisted, and said, coldly and firmly, “Thank you. uncle, but I don't want the primroses, and Walter does not want me. Come. Percy dear;" and so she marched off; but she had not gone many steps before, having a great respect for old age, she ordered Percy, in a whisper, to make some apology to her unde. Percy did not much like the commission. However, lie went back, and said, very civilly, “This is a free country,but I am afraid I have been a little too fn-e in expressing my opinion: let me hope you are not annoyed with me.” “1 am never annoyed with a fool.” said the implacable Colonel. This was too much for any little man to stand. “That is why you are always on such good terms with yourself,” said Percy, as red as a turkey-cock. The Colonel literally stared with amazement. Hitherto it had been for him to deliver bayonet thrusts, not to receive them. Julia pounced on her bantam-cock, and with her left hand literally nulled him off the premises, and shooli her right list at him till she got him out of sight of the foe; then she kissed him on botli cheeks, and burst out laughing; and. indeed, she was so tickled that she kept laughing at intervals, whether tlie immediate subject of conversation was grave or gay. It is hard not to laugh when a very little fellow checks a very big one. Even Walter, though headmired as well as loved his father, hung his head, and his shoulders shook with suppressed risibility. Colonel Clifford detected him in this posture, and in his wrath gave his chair a whack with his staff that brought Master Walter to the position of a private soldier when the drill-sergeant cries “Attkntion!” "Did vou hear that, sir?” said lie. “I did,” said Walter; “cheeky little beggar. But you know, father, you were rather hard upon him before "bis sweetheart, and 'a little pi* is soon hot.'” “There was nothing to he hot about,” said the Colonel, naively; “hut that is neither here nor there! You are ten times worse than lie is. He is only a prating, pedantic puppy, but vou area muff. sir. a most unmitigated muff, to stand there mum-chance and let such an article as that earn off the prize.” “Oh. father,” said Walter “why will you not see that the prize is a living woman, a woman with a will of her own, and not a French eagle, or the iigureheml of a ship? Now do listen to reason.” “Not a word,” said the Colonel, marching off. “But excuse me,” said Walter. “I have another thing far more important to speak to you about; this unhappy lawsuit.” “That's no business of yours, and I don't want your opinion of it; there is no more light in you than there is in a hen sparrow. I "decline your company and your pacific twaddle; I have no patience with a muff;” and the Colonel marched off, leaving his son planted there, as the French say. Walter, however, was not long alone; the interview had been watched from a distance by Mary. She now stole noiselessly on the scene, and laid her white hand upon her husband's shoulder before he was aware of her. The sight of her was heaven to him, but her first question clouded his happy face. “Well, dear, have you propitiated him?” Walter hung his head sorrowfully, and said hardly anything. "He has been blustering at me all the time, and insists upon my cutting out Percy whether I can <>r not, and marrying J ulin whether she chooses or not .” "Then we must do what I said. Indeed there is no other course. We must own the truth; concealment and deceit will not mend our folly.” “Oh, hang it, Mary,don't call it folly.” “Forgive me, dear, but it was the height of folly. Not that 1 mean to throw the blame on you—that would he ungenerous; but the truth is you had no business U> marry me, and 1 had no business to marry you. Only think— me—Mary Bartley—a clandestine marriage. and then our going to the Lakes again, and spending our honeymoon together just like other couples—the recklessness—the audacity! Oh, what happiness it was!" Walter very naturally pounced upon this unguarded and naive conclusion of Mary's self-reproaches. “Yes.” said he. eagerly; “let us go there again next week.” “Not next week, not next month, not next year, nor ever again until we have told all the world.” “Well, Mary,” said Walter, “it's for you to command and me to obey. I said so before, and I say so now. if you are not ashamed of me, how caii 1 he ashamed of you; you say the word, and I will tell mv father at dinner-time, hefoie Julia Clifford and John Baker, and request themtotell everybody they know, that I am married to a woman I adore, and there is nobody I care for on earth as I do for her. and nothing I value compared with her love and her esteem." Mary put her arm tenderly around her husband's neck: and now it was with her as it is often with generous and tender-hearted women, when all opposition to their wishes is withdrawn, thev begin to see the other sale. ‘ My dearest,” said Maty. “I couldn't bear you to sacrifice your prospects tor me.” “Why. Mary.” said Walter, “what would mv love be wort h if it shrank from seff-s.acrifieo? I really think 1 should feel more pleasure than pain if I gave up frieiuls, kindred, hopn (ivervthing that is supposed to make life pleasant for you." “And so would I for you," said Mary; “and oh. Walter, women have presentimivits. and something tells me that fate has great trials in store for you or for me. perhaps for both. Yes, you are right, the true measure of love must be self-saeriliee. and if there is to be ‘ elfsacrifice. no, let tlie self-sucriiicc fail on me; for 1 cannot think any man can love a woman quite so deeply as 1 love you—my darling." Me had only time to draw her sweet forehead to his bosom, whilst her arm encircled Ids neck, when in came an ordinary love by way of contrast. Julia Clifford and Percy came in. walking three yards apart:'Pi icy had untied tlie apron strings without" Walter's assistance.

nor night * “Oh." cried Julia, “that I never did. 1 cannot afford to stop my circulation altogether: its much too little.” Then she flew at him suddenly. “Your accestors were pigmies.” Percy drew himself up to hD full height, and defiedtheinsinuation."They were giants, in chain armor,” said lie. “What," said Julia, without a moment's hesitation, “the ladies? Or was it tlie knights that wore bracelets?” Some French writer sav s. “The tongue of a woman is her sword,” and Percy Fitzroy found it so. lie could no more answer this sudden thrust than hecould win the high leap at Lillie Bridge. He stood quivering as if a polished rapier had really been passed clean through him. Mary was too kind-hearted to laugh in his face, but eoiildn't help turning her head awav and giggling a little. At last Percy recovered himself enough to say; “The truth is you have gone and given it to somebody else.” “Oh. you wieked—bad-hearted—you that couldn't be jealous!” By this time Percy was himself again, and said, with some reason, that “invectives were not arguments. Produce the bracelet.” “And so I can,” said Julia, stoutly. “Give me time.” "Oh.” said Percy, “if it's a mere question of time, there is no more to he said. You'll find the bracelet in time, and in time I shall feel once more that confidence in you which induced me to confide to yoii as to another self that precious family relic, which 1 value more than any other material object in the world.” Then Percy, whose character seemed to have changed, retired with stiff dignity and an air of indomitable resolution. Neither Julia nor Mary had overseen him like that before. Julia was unaffectedly distressed. “Oh,"Mary, why did I ever lend it to you?” Now Mary knew very well win re the bracelet was, hut she was ashamed to say; she stammered and said. “You know, dear, it is too small, much too small, and my arm isbiggerthan vours.” “There!” said Julia; “you have broken the clasp!” Mary colored up to the eyes at her own disingenuousness, and said, hastily. "But 111 have it mended directly; I'll return it to-morrow at the latest.” “1 shall lie wretched till you do,” said Julia, eagerly. "1 suppose you know what I want it for now ?” "Why,” said Man . “of course I do; to soothe his wounded feelings.” “Soothe his feelings!” cried Julia, scornfully; "and how about mine? No; tin* only tiling 1 want it for now is to fling it in his face. IP-; soul is as small as bis body; he's a little, mean suspicious. jealous fellow, and I'm very glad to have lost him.” She lliumced off all on tire, looking six feet high, and got quite out of sight before she began to erv. Then the truth came out. Mary, absorbed in conjugal bliss, had left it at the hotel by the Lakes. She told M ailer.

lucky; you will never see it again.” “Oh )cs. I shall." said Mary: "they are very honest people at that" inn: and I have written about it. and told them to keep it safe, unless they have an opportunity of sending it.” Walter reflected a moment. “Take mvadvice. Manr,” said he. “Let me gallop off this afternoon and get it lor you.” “Oh yes, Walter." said Mary. “Thank you so much. That will be the best way.” At this moment loud and angry voices were heard coming round the "corner, and Mary uttered a cry of dismay, for her discriminating ear recognized both those voices in a moment. She clutched Walter's shoulder. “Oh, Walter, it's your father and mine quarrelling. How unfortunate that they should have met! What shall we do?” “Hide in Hope's office. The French window is open.” "tjuiek. then!” cried Mary.and darted into the otlice in a moment. Walter dashed in after her. When she got safe into cover she began to complain. “This comes of concealment—wo are always being driven into holes and corners.” "1 rather like them with you,” said the unabashed Walter.
