A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

Perilous Secret

BT CHARLES READE,

Author of "Hart Cash," "Pot yourself In Piaee," "Itln Never Too Late to Mend," "Griffith Gaunt," etc,

[The story of "A Perilous Secret" was snenoed in this paper Mar. 22nd. Back nt bees will be tent to any address on receipt of flvecents for each copy.)

Busy men whose views were all external, are even more apt than others to oii»» the knowledge of their own mind*. This man, to whom everything was business, bad taken for granted that he did not love Graca hope. Why, she was another man's child. But now be had lost her forever, he found he had mistaken bis own feelings. He looked round bis'gloomy horizon and realized too late that be did love her it was not great and penetrating love like William Hope's he was incapable of such a sentiment but what affectum he bad to bestow, he had given to this sweet creature. Ills house was dark without her be was desolate and alone, and, horrible to think of, the instrument of her assassination. This thought drove her to frenzy, and bis frenzy took two forms, furious excitement and gloomy despair this was now his life by night and day, for sleep deserted him. At the mine his measures were all wise, but bis manner very wild the very miners whispered amongst themselves that he was going mad. At home, on the contrary, he was gloomy with sullon despair. He was in this latter condition the evening after the explosion, when a visitor was announced. Thinking It was some one from the mine, he said, faintly, "Admit bim," and then his despondent head dropped on his breast Indeed, he was In sort of leathergy, worn out with his labors, bis remorse, and his sleepless* noes. ,.

In that condition his ear wa* suddenly erred by a bard, metallic voloe whose tone was somehow opposed to all the voices with which goodness and humanity have ever spoken. "Well, governor, here's a slice of luck." "Hartley shivered. Is that the devil •peaking to uie T" he muttered without ^"No^'said Monckton, Jauntily ••only one of his servants, and your best friend." "My friend?" said Bartley, turning bis chair and looking at bim with a sort of dull wonder. "Ay," said Monckton, "your friend the man that found you brains aud resolution, and took you out of the hole, and put Hoje and his daughter, sbedid that for us, she was so clever." "Yes," said Bartley, wildly, "It was you who made me an aasasln. But for you^ I should only have been a knave: now I am a immlerer—thanks to you. "Come, governor," said Monckton, "no use looking at one side of the picture.

In a work of this kind not only external incidents should be noticed bat also what may be called the men events. We have seen a calamity pi duce a great revulsion in the feelings Colonel Clifford bnt as for Robert Ba ley, bis very character was shaken to foundation by bis crirre and its terrible consequences. He was now like a man who bad glided down a soft, sunny •lope, and was suddenly arrested a: the brink of a fathomless precipice. Bartley was cunning, selfish, avaricious,, unscrupulous in reality, so long as she could appear respectable but be was not violent, nor pnynically reck lew, still less crnel. A dded of blood shocked bim as much as it would shock an boniest man. Yet now through following his natural bent too far, and yielding to the influence of a remorseless villain, be found bis own bands stained witb blood —the blood of a man who, after all, had been bis best frieud, and bad led him to fortune: and the blood of an innocent irirl who bad not only been bis pectinffclary benefactress for a time, but had Wwarmed and lighted bis house with her ^teauty and atltction.

"Tillaln and tool!" said Bartley, "these trifles do not trouble me now. If Hope and my dear Marr ate found dead in thai Tuine, I'll tell bow they eame by their death, and 1'U die by my own band,**

Monckton said nothing, but looked at bim keenly, and began at teat to ted uneasy. "A shaft is but a narrow thing," Bartley rejoined "why should tbey fee buried alive*? Let's get to them before^ tbey an# starved to death. We may save them yet."

Why, yon fool, they'll denounce us!" "What do I oare? I would varetbesu to In both to-night if I was dock to-morrow." ••And swing on the gallows next week, or end your days la a prison."

now,"

Bartley never followed htm beyond his own room he had been goaded into a maniacal impulse, and he returned to bis gloomy sullenness.

Walter's declaration, made so suddenly before four persons, startled them greatly for a moment —but only for a moment. Julia was the first to speak. "We might have known it." she said. "Mary Bartley is a young lady incapable of misconduct she is prudence, virtue, delicacy, and purity in person the man she was with at that place was sure to be her husband, and who should that be but Walter, whom she loved

Then the lervants looked anxiously at their master to see how he took this startling revelation. Well the Colonel stood Arm as if he was at the head of a column In the field. He was not the tnan to retreat from any position. He said, "All we have to do Is to save her then my house and anm are open to my son's wife," "God bless you, father 1" cried Walter in a broken voice "and God bless you, dear cousin! Yes, it's no time for words." And he was gone in a moment. "Now, Milton," said the Colonel, "he won't sleep here till the work is done, and he won't sleep at all if we don't get abed for him .near the mine. You order the break out, and go to the Dun Cow and do what you can for bim." "That I will, sir I'll take his own sheets and bedding with me. I won't trust that woman—she talks too much and, if you please, sir, I'll stay there a day or two myself, for maybe I shall coax him to eat a morsel of my cooking, and to lie down a bit, when he would not.listen to a stranger." "You're a faithful creature," said the Colonel, rather aggressively, not choosing to break down "so are you, Jobn and it is at these moments we find out our friends in the house and, confound ou, I forbid you both to snivel," said e. still louder. Then, more gravely,

How do we know? many a stormy day ends well this calamity may bring bappiness and peace to a divided house.**

Colonel Clifford prophesied right. Walter took the lead oi a working gang and worked night and dav. resting two hours only in the twenty-four, and even that with great reluctance. Outside, the scene was one of bustle and animation. Li'tle white tents, for the strange workmen to sleep In, dotted the green, and two snowy refreshment teuts were pitched outside the Dun Cow. That establishment had large brick ovens and boilers, and the landlady, and the women she bad got to help her, kept the tables away groaning undor solid fare that never once flagged, being under tbe charge of that old campaigner, Colonel Clifford, trie

AS a race and a struggle of two gallant rties, and a short description ofit will given but as no new incidents hapued for six days, we shall preserve the chronological order of events, and now relate a daring project which was revived In that internal.

Monckton and Bartley were now enemies. Sin bad united, crime and remorse bad disunited, them. Monckton registered avow of future vengeance uphis late associate, but in the mean „..ie, taking a survey of the present circumstances, he fell back upon a dark project he had conceived yean ago on the very day when be was arrested for teft in Bertley"* office.

somehow he did not look at the fire. He looked eakant at Monckton, and he showed the white of his eyes more and more. Monckton kept his eye upon bim, and put his band upon the handle of the door. "I'll tell you," said Bartley—"by

Monckton tore the door open and dashed out, but a furious blow fell before be was quite clear of the doorway. With such force was It delivered that the blunt metal cut into the edge of the door like a sword the Jamb was smashed and eren Monckton, who received but one-fourth of the blow, fell upon his hands and kne°s into (be ball, and was stunned for a moment, but fearing worse, staggered out of the hall door, which, luckily for him, was open, and darting into a little grove of shrubs, that was close by, grovelled there in silence, bleeding like a pig, aad waiting for his chance to escape entirely but the quaking reptile ran no further risk.

Now her nerves were already excited, and this made matters worse. She cried and trembled, and became hysterical, and vowed she would never go nearer Leonard Monckton again he had never loved her, had never Men a friend to her a8 Jonathan Braham bad. "No," said she "if he wants money, take and sell my jewels but I shall stay with my husband in bis trouble." "He is not your hnsband," said the lawyer, quietly "and this man ia your husband, and things have come to my knowledge lately which It would be imprudent at present to disclose either to him or yon but we are old friends. You can not doubt that I have your interest nt heart," "No, I don't doubt that," said Lucy, hastily, and held out her hand to him. "Well, then," said he, "be persuaded and meet the man." "No, I will not do that," said she. "I am not a good woman, I know but it is ndt for want of the wish. I will not double any more." And from that nothing he could say could move her.

The lawyer returned to his place, and when Mockton called next day he told bim he was sorry to say Mr. Braham was ill and In trouble, and \he lady couldn't meet him. She would make any reasonable sacrifice for his convenience except that. "And I/' said Mockton, "insist upon that and nothing else."

and blutec ey himself sooner than his client should be tormented.

But Mockton was inflexible. He said: "It is about a matter that she cannot communicate to you, nor can I. However, I am obliged to you for your information. She won't leave her stockbroker, eh? Well, then know where to find ber and he took np his hat to go. "No, pray don't do that," siid Middleton, earnestly. "Let me try her again. She has had time to sleep over it."

Try ber," said Monckton, sternly, and if you are ber friend, take her husband's side in this one thing it's tbe last time I shall trouble her." "I am her friend said tbe lawyer. "And If you must know, I rather wish ber to meet you and get it over. Will you come here again at five o'clock?" "All right," said Monckton.

Monckton was -struck with lawyer Middleton's manner, and went away puzzling over it. "What's his little game, I wonder?" said he.

The lawyer went post-haste to his client's house. He found her in tears. She banded him an open letter.

Braham was utterly ruined, and beslded that has done something or other be did not care to name he was off to America, leaving ber what money she could find In the house and the fnrnlture, which he advised her to sell at, once before others claimed it in short, the man was wild with fear, and at iresent thought but little of anybody ut himself.

On, don't be alarmed. I don't ask you to travel with me as man and wife." "It doesU't much matter, I suppose," said Lucy, doggedly. "Well, you are accommodating I'll be considerate." ., "No doubt you will," said Lucy then turning ber glorious eyes full upon him, "What's the crimk?" "Th»crime!" said Monckton, looking all aboiit the room to find It. "What crime 1" "The crime I'm wanted for all your schemes are criminal, you know#" "Well, you're complimentary. Its not a crime this time it's only a confesston/' "Ah! What am I to knfess—bigamy "The idea! No. You are to confess —in a distant part of England, what you can deny in Loudon next day—that on a certain day you married a gentleman called Walter Clifford. "I'll say that on the eleventh day of June, 1868.1 married a gentleman who was tailed Walter Clifford."

This was Lucys reply, and given very ^Ifravo! and will you stand to It if the real Walter Cllfford saysU is lie?"

In most mining accidents tbe shafts are dear, and tbe debris that has to be picked through to get to the entombed miners Is attacked with this advantage, that a great number of men have room to their arms and pickaxes, and the stuff has not to be sent up to to the surface. But in this horrible accident both gangs of workers were confined to a small area and small eages, and the staff had to be sent np to tbe surface.

Bartley, who seemed to live only to rescue tbe sufferers by his own fault, provided miles of rope, and had small cages knocked together, so that the debris was continually coming up from both the shafts, and one great source of delay was averted. But the other fatal cause of delay mained. and so daylight came and went, and the stars appeared and disappeared with incredible rapidity to poor Walter and the other gallant workers, before they got within thirty feet of the pit those who worked in the old shafts, having looser stuff to deal with, gained an advance of about seven feet upon tbe other working party' and this being reported to Walter, he went down the other shaft to inspire the men by words and example. He had not been down two horns when one of the the miners cried, "Hold bard, they are working up to us," and work was instantly suspended for a moment. Then, sure enongh, the sounds of pickaxes working below were Just audible.

There was a roat ol exulttatlon from the rescuing party, and a man was sent up with his feet in a bucket, and clinging to a rope, to spread the joyful tidings but the work was not intermitted for more than a moment, and in a few hours it became necessary to send the cage down and suspend the work to avoid another accident. The thin remaining crust gave way, the way was clear, lamps were sent down, and the saving party soon in' the mine, with a sight before them never to be forgotten.

Tbe few men who stood erect with picks in their bands were men of rare endurance and even they began to fall, exhausted with fetigue ana hunger. Five times their number lay dotted about the mine, prostrated by privation, and some others, alas 1 were dead. None of the poor fellovys were in a condition to give a rational answer, though Walter Implored them to say where Hope was and his daughter. These poor pale wretches, the shadows of their former selves, were sent up in the cages witb all expedition, and received by Bartley, who seemed to lorget nothing, for he had refreshment teuts ready at the pit mouth.

Meantime, Walter and others, whose hearts were witb him,jran wildly through the works, and groped on their kneea witb their lamps to find Hope and his daughter but they were not to be found, and nine miners besides them were missing, including Ben Burnley. Then Walter came wildly up to the surface, wringing his bands with agony, and crying, "Thev are lost I they are lost 1" "No," cried Bartlej "they must not be lost tbey must not be lo t. One man has has ccme to himself. I gave him port-wine aud brandy." Then he dragged the young man into the tent. There was staut Jim Davies propped up and held, but with a great tumbler of brandy and port in his band. "Now, my man," said, or rather screamed, BartleyM*"tell himjwbere Hope is, and Mary-that I— Oh, God I oh, God 1'

Master," said Jim, faintly, "I was In the belli with Mr. Hope and the lady when the first explosion came. Most of us ran past the old shaft and got clear. A few was caught by the falling shaft, for I looked back and saw it. But 1 never saw Master Hope among them. If he was, he is buried under the shaft bat I do really thiuk that he was that taken up with his girl, and that darned villain that fired the mine, as he's like to be in the hall, either alive or dead."

He could say no more, but fell into a sort of doze, the result of the powerful stimulant on bis enfeebled frame and empty stomach. Then Bartley, with trembling hands, brought out a may of the mine and showed Walter where the second party had got to. "See," said he, "they are within twenty feet of the bottom, and the hall is twenty-three feet high. Hope measured it. Give up working downward, pick into the sides of that ball, for In that hall I see them at night sometimes thOT are alive, sometimes they are dead, sometimes tbey dying. I shall go mad! Is a a 1

Witb this he went raging about, givtbe wildest orders' witn the looks and tones of a madman. In a minute he had a cage ready for Walter, and freshlit lamps, and down went Walter witb more men and pickaxes. As soon as he got out of the cage be cried, wildly, "Stop that, men do as I do."

H6 took a sweep with his pifck, and delivered a horizontal blow at the clay on that side of the shaft Bartley bad told htm to attack. His pickaxe stuck in It, and be extricated it with difficulty. "Nay. master," cried a miner who had fallfn In love with him, "drive thy pick at t' coal."

Walter then observed that above the clay there was a narrow seam of ooal be heaved bis pick again, but instead of striking it half downward, as be ought to have done, be delivered a tremendous horizontal blow that made the coal ring like a church bell, and Jarred his own stout arms so terribly that the pick fell out of his numbed band.

Then the man who had advised him saw that he was disabled for a time, and stepped into his place.

But In that short Interval and an incident occurred so strange and thrilling that thestont miners uttered treble cries, like women, and then one mighty "Hah I' burst like a diapason from their manly bosoms.
