given. A moment after Florence was elidine
from the room with a step as fleet as an antelope's. 'The moment she left the apartment, I seized Ellen by the arm, and dragged her with the energy of a madman from the house, cursing her in alow, bitter tone, from the veiy centre of my heart. As soon as we had both pained
the street, I flung her from me with desperate
force, which caused her tofall headlong upon the pavement. This brought me a little to my
senses. II she were to be found dead or dying at Mr. Allison's door, it could only make
matters worse, I thought, and so went to her and lifted her up. She was a little stunned, but soon recovered, and walked along by my

voice:

have tried to lift up my head, and be as I have been. But I cannot. Every such struggle has only left me weaker than before." "But will you not tell, dear Florence, the cause? Why leave us in such doubt?" "Mother, do not urge me farther on that
point," she said, in a calmer tone than she had yet been able to allow herself to allude to the subject. "Let it suffice for you to know that I have been cruelly deceived by one who may
