,f Tlie eleventh oi Uctober, ljjiu, waaa wild night, a night of cloud-rack and pale, intermittent moonlight. The high westerly wind seemed like a demon lot loose over sea and land. In cities 1hmk were usroofwl and chimney-pots fell witn ill? sound of thunder. On sons, full of hurry 'ami confusion, ships staggered blindly, with far more chance of etilng 1 down than of making port. Through forecastle the wind roared and Tared Fa its fierce on-rushing; one oould hear great boughs snap short from the trees and hurled about in wild fury. At seven o'clock in the evening a postcarriage, with smoking post-horses and skouting pofrt-boys, drew up before the principal inn at Deal. The carriage was occupied by two persons, a man and a woman, who, having heard that they could obtain a good night's shelter, dismounted. Seen uy the bright light of the inn parler, the two traveler showed a strange eontraet. The woman, or girl ratherfor she could net have been more than twenty presented a striking type of village beauty. She was tall and straight, with a lirm, shapely figure. She had brown hair, thick and curling. There was a wistful look in the dark, deep eye, whose abundant lashes fell on rounded, warmly-tinted joheeks. The Hps, ripe and red, might lmvecxCuad any man for longing to - kis litem. Her companion, who was at least ten years older, was evidently in a very different position of life. Ho must have had good blood in his veins ; at least you could have gucesed it from the long, alenditr lingers, terminating in the ex.quisite nlbcrt-phaped nails. He was . tall and slightly fashioned. TIkj face woukl Have ben called a handsome one, but it was too pale and too deli oato in outline to suggest the ids of complete and manly beauty. He drew down her htad ution his shoulder, smoothing lovingly her soft brown hair. They had the room to themselves, and so wrapped up were they in each other they had failed to notice a face from outside, which, press ed oloee aeainst tlie blindleee window, was watching them with bright, strain- : ee, sMister eyes. ut wnen tne gin, ohanging hec potrition, did catch eight cf the face, the blood suddenly forsook her. eneeks and lips, and uttering a r skert, idmru ory, she hkl her face again en her kesbana's skoulder, . -4,0ii, my God, it cn not be!" she tfnoUlnwat "We are watched, Arthur, f,utDen,t'eueefn -
