ir'K CONCERT.

High up, out oi tl blaze and merriment of mid-Paris—Iiiit'h up in a network of steep streets, dark and dirty as any Thames lane or alley—beyond the bigbelt of exterior boulevard—beyond hilly Montmartre, in a region the English tourist wots not of, and among crowds he would shrink from in dismay—the coming victories were to be celebrated, with the simple pomp of poverty and tlie simpler l'aith of ignorance. The mode of celebration was singularly Parisian. An extraordinary performance was to take place at the Folies, Belleville a military piece was to be played, speeches were to be made, and patriotic songs chanted.

The facade of the cafe concert was illuminated when Joachim and Mervale took llieir tickets. Men, women, and children, poorly dressed, but animated and alert, were llockiug into the large hall and galleries, and taking their places at the little round-tab11'* which busy waiters, in House* Biiirt-sleeves were covering witln of i:heap beer, thin wine, and ccmm

:{jueurs.

Joachi.:i and his friend made for a table a secluded corner "Your broad 'Jli is rather too fresh, id your watch-chain too splendid they 111 call that a: ~tocratic ostentation here

Belleville. SV« had better keep in the Shade, if you want to avoid a discourse on Eolitical economy, with a free fight at the end."

As be ppok'-\ •vri men in blouses sat it tlio tab!" bt»side them. M10 ai'i oiu iVk-mlsf' said Mervale, in ^i-iundei tone. ^oactnin *c.arn»d the new-comers, and •said',''"I knoU' Jno of th«m by-sight. He's a violent democrat: Eugene Etienne— town de guerre, I fiuspect." "I say, Choifuard," said the blouse des ignated by Joachim to his companion, ^liall you epeaki" "No," returned Choquard "they'll have enough of politics during the seige. Let them be haypy- fpr to-night,poor wretches."

thave $efard of her." said Ohoquard. She hasn't an immense amount of sciice, perhaps but her voice rings like a [ugle. Hhe stands up there," and he pointed to the stage, "with the flag in her Hand, like the Goddess of Reason. And a aautiful face, take a connoisseur's word for it."

Here Mervale joiued in the conversation. His unaffected manner and easy politeness made the workmen forget the outward sign which Joachim had pointed out as being peculiarly obnoxious to Belleville, and he. was deep in a discussion of the Prussian military system with Eugene Eticnne, when loud cries of "Silence" in teimpted them. "It's the 11 sw linger,"' said Joachim.

The band played the prelude of the ••jCUarseillaiRc/'.and the audience rose to *n-

A lady camo forward, holding the tri lor aloft. "!i ere was a. burst of applause, and one Etienno sat down abruptly, and 4- it?d his face from the stage.

4

Get np, mar," saiclChoquard, touching shoulder. wpon't you kr.ow her?" whispered Eugene

••It's Reine!"

»lYou don't say so?" said his friend 1 vanished. "Well what of that?"

"What of that? Why, I don't want to meet her, or let her see me just after that cursed affair at Ville d'Avray." "Still squeamish!" muttered Choquard, disdainfully.

He was constrained to turn, and listen. The clear notes of the young- vocalist's voice was echoing through the hall, hushed to hear them as though every man and woman were spell-bound. Never had the mighty music, the noble words of the revolutionary anthem, meant so much, even to the Belleville democrats. Their thought.-' went back involuntarily to the tirst days of freedom in the eve of the last ceotury, when France was in arms agaiiut the world when Theroigne de Mericourt sang the chant of vengeance in the Palais Royal, and Camille Desmoulins' fervent voice echoed "Aux amies, ciloyen.?!"

Loudly swelled the chorus in the Folies, Belleville hats were dolled, women waved their kerchiefs, and held up their children to give a cry for the Republic and as the iirst stanza ended, an unanimous roar of applause shook the roof and galleries, and went echoing in muffled murmurs down many a narrow street of the revolutionary quarter.

Ere the singer had began the second verse, a messenger came hurriedly 011 the stage, and handed her a small packet and a newspaper.

She probably supposed that the manager of the music had required her to read some important telegram to the audience. Such announcements were not unusual then.

She opened the packet, gazed vacantly at its contents and grew deadly pale. Her glance fell upon the newspaper, and what she read there made her totter, and lean against a balustrade for support. The orchestra was waiting. She remembered her position suddenly, and began, with a quivering voice, "amour mere de la Patre then a sob choked her utterance—she fell back, and was led away. The manager came forward to announce that Mdlle. Marguerite was taken suddenly ill, and could not continue her part.

Mervale's eyes had never left her face during the song. As she retired, he rose, and, turning to Joachim, said, hurriedly, "You will think me mad, Joachim, but 1 can't leave that poor girl helpless. Your name is known will you accompany mo behind the scenes?'"

Joachim obeyed, and the two threaded their way out of the hall. The critic knew the stage-door, of course—what Paris stage-door was lie not familiar with? They passed the porter, and proceeded, stumbling over ropes, ladders, and those inexplicable ridges with which the flooring of all theatres seems purposely studded, to the green-room, where Mdlle. Marguerite might probably be heard of.

At the door, Joachim met the manager, with whom he was slightly acquainted. "Don't go in there," said the impresario. "Our tirst singer has been taken ill, and she is sitting in there, and wishes to be alone. The poor girl seems almost distracted."

In spite of the recommendation, Mervale let the manager and journalist walk on then raised the curtain that covered the green-room doorway, and entered.

Heine was siting at the table, gazing fixedly at the newspaper in her hand. The paragraph that riveted her attention was brief but 'he poor piece of prose went to her h.-art with a force and eloquence the grandest verse ever penned would not have possessed in her sight at that moment:—

"We are sorry to learn, that a very promising young o.'iicer. Captain Carayon, of the Chasseurs d'Afriqne, has been missing for several weeks, and is known to have been absent without leave from his regiment at Sedan and the proceeding battles. The conclusions to be drawn from this fact are obvious a.s they are painful. Either M. Carayon (who is known to have been on intimate terms with many foreign Parisian residents of doubtful character) forms part of the vast legion of the Prussian spies that infests France, or he has cravenly deserted his colors at a moment when our country most needs the courage anil devotion of its citizens."

This was what Reine was reading and beside her on the table lay her early letters to Francisque, returned without a word—returned to prove to her, cruelly and silently, that 'H-I- story was disbelieved, and the ii

1

broken that held

her to her lover—the tie of past happiness which these letters ci'inniemorated. She rose as Mervale entered. "Still I must go to him," she murmured, lie is in danger now something has befallen him. I cannot believe him to bo what they say. 1 must go."

Mervale advanced respectfully. "Your pardon, Mademoiselle. I saw from the tirst that you were in some distress. Can I help you'll"

She did not recognize Miss Summerson's friend in her misery. She was so changed, her dress so different, her face and figure so thinned by suffering and privation, that the Englishman 011 his part, had no ecollection of having met her once before. "Oh, monsieur, you are kind! All I will ask von to do is to send for a conveyance quickly. So many things depend upon your haste."

No cab was to be found at that hour in Belleville. "But," said Mervale, telling her this, "you can find one on the exterior boulevards."

She was hurrying away, when he stopped her. "You cannot go through this evil quarter alone at this hour. Allow ma to walk with yoti."

She assented mutely and absently. They hurried to the boulevards, a cab was found, and Mervale entered it with her. "To the Saint Lazare Station," he cried.

The station was dark, but crowds were collected in the vic inity, excitedly discussing some recent disastrous events. "Stop!" cried a guard. "Where are you going?" "To Versailles,"' said Mervale. "Versailles is occupied. The line is cut. The seige has begun in earnest." "Ah!" cried Reine and fell back in the carriage, fainting."

CHAPTER XII.

BESIEGED

The great guns are roaring around Paris its horizon is narrowed by a line of smoke men and woman have grown used to speaking to the hoarse accompaniment of the bombardment, have grown used to feel themselves alone, their city an island in an ocean of swaying and struggling armies.

The Champs Elysees are emptied of loungers, nursemaids, and carriages.From time to time a batallion of Guardes Nationaux or Mobiles pass silently between the rows of hapless trees to the ramparts, or in turns to the barracks, wet, mud-bespat-' tered, and dejected You could see them from the windows of the Hotel de Cliayolles, midway between the Place de la Concorde and the Arc de Triomphe. Only it was then a rule in the house that the windows should be masked with blinds,

I

that none could look out of them in the presence of the master, that nothing of what was passing without should be allowed to reach his ears.

The Comte had been sorely stricken ere the war had reached its climax at Sedan. He had collapsed under a stroke of paralysis, brought on by the excitement of his marriage, political anxiety, and, it was rumored, grief at the loss of his adopted daughter. Miss Summerson had earned the enthusiastic praises of all who knew her by her conduct during this crisis.

Careless of conventional rules, at the first news of the Comte's illness, she had come to theJHotel de Chayolles, installed herself at his bedside, and, in the opinion of the attendant doctors, saved her promis6d husband's life by her ministration. But this was the time of her greatest trial. The Comte had awakened to life with his memory of recent events dimmed and distorted. He imagined that the first reverses of the campaign had been amply retrieved. He knew nothing of Sedan, or the Emperor's captivity, or the proclamation of the Republic. The history of the last, few weeks was a blank to him, which he had filled up by imaginary events—the most natural in his opinion, the most flattering to the old soldier's patriotism. "And so he must remain for the present," said the doctor, from whom she was receiving many compliments wtt.h a pettish air of protestation that, completed the fascination of the old practitioner. "But," he observed, before evening, "can you answer for the maintenance of the Comte's ignorance beyond the limit of your fresh provisions? A glance at the seige bread or ration of horse-flesh would infallibly enlighten him." "He was too ill to amass provisions for himself," said Juliet "so, from the beginning, I have accepted the seige regime, and given him the provisions my mother had bought for herself and me. Devoted to one person, with an invalid's appetite, tlicy will last as long as the seige, unless Paris emulates Troy.

With old-fashioned gallantry, the doctor touched her hand with his lips, and said, "The Comte will have reason to be proud of his wife." "Ah! wo were to have been married this week," said Juliet, tentatively.

Her ruse-succeeded. The doctor answered, "The Comte will not, I am afraid, be strong enough to go through the ceremony for a month or six weeks."

The doctor had been gone some few minutes,•wlr 11 a servant announced, "Monsieur Clen -nt de Boisrobert."

Clemen' entered, dressed in the uniform of the National Guard. His wound, his modest stories of Sedan, had their effect and he was elected to the grade of captain in the batallion ot' his arrotulissement. "How is lie to-day?" he inquired, as he came into the room. "Progressing slpwly, in medical phraseology. The marriage may take place in a month." "A month! The deuce! I don't know how I shall outlive it. Everybody wants ready money, because of this seige. The club's like a convent—no one will try a lansquenet on any account. I am cleared out. Juliet, what is to be done?" "Wait!" she said, stolidly. "Wait, wait!—and for what?" he added, after a moment's reflection. "Directly the siege is at an end, he must know all and I it will kill him, unless we are victorious, which is decidedly doubtful. Then what will become of us?"

Juliet was startled. For once, an important consideration had escaped her. "You are right," she answered. "The marriage must be hastened. But. I cannot plead with the doctor. He is infatuated enough but such a very evident desire would dash a stronger faith than his." "T will speak to i.lio Comte," said Clement. "I'll touch him on a tender point, and he will go his own way in spite of all the doctors in the world."

Clement was forthwith introduced into the quiet, darkened chamber where the Comte de Chayolles sat patiently awaiting health or death. The old man had paled and shrunk since his illness. He stretched forth a transparent hand to Clement, and said, kindly, "There are few young men of your age that I should be glad to see hero at such a time. They should be all at Berlin, with the rest. But you have received your baptism. Your wound's the only excuse I admit. And then, I see you have taken some form of service, That's right—that's right!" "Oh, I shall waltz with the fraulems at Potsdam with the rest, when my wound has closed! But in the meantime, Comte, I want to speak to you on a delicate subject, if you will permit me?" "Speak, speak!" returned the Comte, slightly surprised. "What is it about?" "About Miss Summerson."

The old man glanced up quickly. Thoughts of a possible rivalry with this young and favored gallant entered his mind. "I am afraid," proceeded Clement, "that Miss Summerson's thoughtless devotion is interpreted cruelly in mahy quarters. I heard a conversation at the club yesterday which startled me considerably. Has Miss Summerson told you that she has not received one visit since she has been here—not one invitation?" "No what is the meaning of it?" said the Comte. "Well, 1 gather from some inuendoes that I have heard that Miss Summerson's residence here is considered a glaring impropriety. You are unmarried, Comte, and the engagement that was talked of between you and her renders the step she took during your illness all the more scandalous, according to French ideas." "I never thought worldly folly and cruelty could go so far!"' said the Comte, indignantly. "The poor girl's reputation is suffering, and I am the cause! This certainly must not continue, Do Boisrobert." "For her to leave the house now would do no good at all," said Clement, fearful of the remedies that might be suggested. "No," said the Comte, "the marriage must take place immediately, if she consents." "But the doctor's order?" said Clement. "Hang the doctors! Paralysis is easier to cure than a fair fame once besmirched!" "But Miss Summerson would probably not go against the doctor's recommendations." "She need not. They give me a month or six weeks. I can talk them over to reducing the time to three weeks. That will do. Thanks, De Boisrobert, for your frank confidence.' You have savedme from rifcareless mistake I should have re gretted all my life."

Clement hastened to report the success of his scheme to Juliet. She said composedly, "And those papers "Still in Eugene's hands.*'_ "Listen. The game is lost, if they are not forthcoming. I have beenlooking for some old prescriptions in the Comte's escritoire."

De Boisrobert smiled meaningly, and Juliet answered the smile. "And I found a draft of his will. He ieaves everything to the 'wronged child of his tirst w'iic!' should have a meagre widows mite after his dsath!"

"Better than nothing, But still we may as well make a gripe at all. The papers shall be mine to-night, or M. Eugene is a more astute scoundrel than I privately consider him." "Then leave the will to me," said Juliet.

A drum sounded in the avenue. "There's the Assemblce" said Clement. "We are on garrison duty at Mont Valerien."

And he ran down into the streets, and followed a few knots of moving figures, tending towards the Place de la Concorde.

CHAPTER XIII.

A GARRET DURING THE SIEGE. Tall houses, letting light into a narrow street jealously, reluctantly, as a visitant all too chaste and pure for the locality lines of shop-windows shuttered, or all but empty of wares—the poorest, oldest quarter of a city besieged, and almost famished. Under the eaves of a cornerhouse, getting a larger share of light than the lower stories, but getting, too, keen blasts of the December winds, a little garret window caught the eye of despairing and reckless neighbors. For there might be despair behind that minute casement, but there certainly was not recklessness. It showed in the rare sunlight its curtains were fresh,and looped up daintily, if cheaply, with wisps of colored paper and a marvel in those days—there were flowers on the sill now and then.

The neighbors were right in their conjectures. A brave soul, that had borne more than most ot them, suffered, and was not cast down, called home that poor garret of a poor street. It. was Heine's face that looked from the window when soin drum, or trumpet, or public rumor, .-^tirred the street. It was Heine's hands that made the window a very beacon of hope to whoever could read' its native and humble elegance aright. She had passed through many trials since her flight with Marcus from the house in the Rue Caumartin.

The Jew had wished to keep her near him, to protect and support her as her father would have done but. she felt that her claim 011 him was no more substantial than that of a mendicant succored in the streets, and that moreover the broker could ill afford any addition to his expenditure. He was rich, she had been told but his life was that of a needy artisan. Ilis feverish thirst for wealth was that of a confirmed miser but his generosity towards her forbade her to charge him with avarice. Despite his protest and active efforts, she resolved to put her own natural talent to profit. She went from theatre to theatre, from concert-room to music-hall, offering her voice for hire and, at last, at the Folies, Belleville, she succeeded in obtaining a heari ng. The result was a public triumph and Reine was engaged to sing the patriotic songs in vogue. It was better than any other form of exhibition, she sind.

That resource had not lasted long. The accumulated defeats, the siege, and its horrors and privations, constrained most theatrical managers to shut their doors. She had not sung after that night when Mervale brought her home, faint with sorrow and disappointment. Marcus left for the provinces on the eve of the siege, bound on some mysterious errand, which, he said, would result in fortune, peace, and—revenge. She earned a few francs as a hospital nurse and Eugene, who had found her out some two or three weeks before this December afternoon, helped her with his pay and rations as a National Guard. Thus her budget was made to suffice for her simple wants and she bided the time when the siege should terminate, or Francisque make some sign, with tranquility, if not with hope.

She was sitting, thinking of the end, of the possibilities in 1he future, and the painful certainties in the past, and tearing linen to shreds to make lint for the ambulances, when a knock at the door roused her, and Eugene entered. "Always at that Sister of Charity business!" he said, scornfully.

His manner had not changed much but Reine considered him 011 the high road to reformation. He drank less absinthe, was scrupulous in the fulfilment of his duties as a citizen soldier and, what touched her most, was gentle in deed to her, if not in words. "And you, Eugene, always reforming society in spite of itself!"

Eugene was one of the most ardent politicians of the Belleville clubs and his speeches obtained the honor of print in not a few of the Radical journals. "Reforming-? No, I'm fighting, which, I begin to think, is the best way of reforming anything this world!" "How, fighting?" "There's a sorlie ordered for fo-niglit or to-morrow, I don't know which. We learn less about our movements tlian the Prussians."

Poor Reine looked anxiously up at him and Eugene, observing the glance, said, kindly. "Don't fret or fear. I shall come out of it safe enough these sorties are show afairs—arranged to occupy us. Nobody at head-quarters believe* in the possibility of raising the seige. We never have more than a few hundred killed,in spite of what the bulletins say. But come, Reine, I might be taken prisoner and as a precaution aguinst that. I want you to keep some papers for me—private papers of inestimable importance." "To whom?" "Tome—and others. Never you mind about that. Will you answer for their safety?" "Ay they shall not leave me." "But if anything should turn up—don't look scared—I mean, if the Prussians should get hold of me, or anything of that kind, give them up to nobody save^ Mervale. He's an honest fellow, and will use them fairly," he added reflectively.

Reine colored slightly when the Englishman's name was mentioned but lier_ tone was unembarrassed, as she answered, "I am glad you have chosen him, Eugene. I would sooner confide in him than in any one within reach," she added, with a halfsigh. "And now," said Eugene, hastily, and with an effort at rough cheeriness, "1 must be off. There's Mont Valerian peppering them. That, means sharj) work to-night. "Good-bye, dear!"

He kissed her gently but then, straightening himself, he said, in the old way, "No cryinr! You do a little of the Sister of Mercy—it's cheerful work, and will enliven you I"

And ostentatiously humming "Ca Ira" as he went down stairs, he left her. But he glanced up at the little window as he turned the corner of the street and the Spartan Democrat brushed something from his eyes with his coat-sleeve as he hurried towards the roar and smoko of Mont Valerien.

His sister had said nothing to him of De Boisrobert's treachery. Marcus had forbidden all such disclosures as prejudicial to herself, and, above all, to her brother. But Eugene knew that she had suffered while he was rioting in Belgium, and his self-reproach made him feel very tenderly towards the little "Sister of Hercy," as lie said.
