damages.

In a darkened chamber, dark with the awful shadow still more than with the lack of material light, four persons were gathered round a bed, on which lay a man bearing in his face the unmistakable signs of the summons which none can refuse to answer. A weeping girl knelt by the bedside,her face bent over the nerveless hand which lay upon the coverlet, and which she held as though by that convulsive clasp she could hold her father still to life. At a tabic, covered with papers an* writing materials, sat the dying man's solicitor, engaged in the preparation of his will. "What names shall I insert as trustees? You should have two at least."

The dying man paused ere he replied with an effort: "Geoffrey Howard, Majar Onc-llun-tred and Eleventh, now in India. I have no other friend." "In that ca^e may I venture to offer mv Humble service-', subject to the usual proviso. I should be delighted to be useful tn Miss Hope and if your fiicnd is abroad, there may be diilkulties." "True, Syltherpe, 1 thank you. Make vourself trusted, with M»j. Howard. Leiracy—$200 for your trouble." "Nav. niv dear sir, quite unnecessary. I really

Bat again the ready pen traveled over the paper, and a quarter of an hour later, Mr. Slvthorpe announced that the document was ready for execution, and in^ 2 iow mechanical monotone read over its

These were the last words Bernard Hope ever spoke. A vcar had passed away si'f-0 Bernard Hope's deatluand Mary still remained an inmate ot the house ot Mrs. Murgatniyd, the good woman whom we have seen in attendance at her father's las! ibness, arid who, to her occasional occupation a ncrs. a.ided the mort permanent one ot iCtt'rig iod^i.igs Mary's sweet face and gentle manner had quite won the-heart ol her good natu ed landlady, who was unceasing in her endeavors to soothe her grief and minister to her comforts. But she had another tronble—none the 'lesshard to bear that it was one in which sh could have few confidants. Maj. Howard of whom mention has already beeri made, was not only her father's most vat ued friend, but "had insensibly grown verv dear to herseli, and when, six montlu before Bernard Hope's death, he was summoned with his regiment to^ India, leH Mary his promised bride: Twice :iad jit ten within the llrst few week his departure, since which lime then Had been a territ.le silence, and in tin ihe same week which left Mary fatheress. a second blow fell upon her. The ine hutjdred and eleventh had been en •,'a _ed in a smart skirmish, the number ot dead and wounded bei .g considerate M'j- Geoffrey Howard was reported anion.' the fallen, and Marv had to mourn at once her lover and her father.

The. death of Maj. Howard left Mr S1ytho:ps so'e trustee of Hope's -will 'Luis to.Mary was a matter ot the most perfect indifference. Suspecting evil ot no one, she was as willing that her littl. fortune, am'ounting to some -five or six thousands pounds, should rest in Mr Slvthorpe's hands as in those of any oth er'p.erson. But of late the attorney had begun.to persecute her with attentions wrhiih, under existing circnmstances, wou|d have been di tasteful from an other, but werr doubly so from,a person whom.she could not help regarding with an instinctive dislike. And in truth Slvthorpe was not precisely the persoi to" win a young lady's fancy. Under-»i/c-d, high-shouldered, with blinking (ashless eyes, and a general angularity, not to sav,knobbiness, of feature, he might have been expected to rise superior t* any weakness as to personal appearance, but such was by no means the case. Mr Slythorpe one morning knocked at Mrs

Nturgatrbyd's door. That good lady was at the moment engaged in dusting Miss Hope's room, and catching sight of his approach, exclaiiYied: "There's that nasty worriting lawyer Hgain, I do declare. Slythorpe, indeed! I'd Slythorpe him!"

It would be hopeless to endeavor to ex press on pap.r the intensity of meaning Mrs. Murgatroyed threw into her newly coined verb. Mary sitiiled at the good lady's vehemence. "My dear Mrs. Murgatroyd, jrou realy shouldn't be so severe. Mr. Slythorpe is a little peculiar, bat I have no. doai he means kindly, and you know he is the Trustee of poor papa's will." "I know he is, my dear, and I wish he wasn't. 1 know he shouldn't be Trustee to a tomcat of mine, drat him!"

At this point the conversation was in terruptcd by the entrance of the gentleman in question, and Mrs. MurgatrovC. passing him with a final sniff of abhorrence, qui -d the apartment.

Mr. Slythorpe, lor once in his life, appeared ill at ease. He was .got up with his accustomed care, and the suggestion of scented soap which accompanied him was even stronger than usu al but his usual self-satisfied air wawanting. He evidently had «omething

When

But' prese^t)y jstoij as he walked about ^thj room, and 'ftinc ovorthe shoulder of His' amanu®is, be oo-.rved the word, and said: "3'hat is notj ac ly th.\,\vnri ir. epressiUe—invpreisiKK- i.j toq^ .t mean/'-and ^o fw muioua |iira*e KM cumpleted

his mind—some piece of rascalis

»y. "My:dear Miss Hope," he began, after the first greetings had been exchanged. "1 grieve to be the bearer of very unpleasant intelligence.'

Mary looked up with quiet indifference, scarcely believing that,after all sh. had gone through, any news, godd or bad, could have for her more than the most passing interest. SU-thorpe continued "I am sure that you will believe' I did it for the best b.»t misfortunes will hap pen, you know, even with the utmost car. and caution. 1 am sure 1 thought the investment was as safe as the bank but there's, no trusting anything nowadays."

What is the misfortune, Mr. Slythorpe, for you haven't told me? Notli ing very serious,

hope."

"Only too serious, my dear Ma—" he tried to say."Mary," but couldn't get it out, and substituted "Miss Hope—"nothing less, I fear, than the loss of the whole of your little fortune."

Mary turned very pale, but gave no other sign .of emotion. "How did it happen," she *aid, \Vith an effort. "Your money was, as 3 ou know, in the 3 per .cents, wheieit produced a miserable £t

a year. In the hope of doing

better for you. I sold out and .invested .it in a-new rriihing fcorripam, the Wheal Marina, which promised to pa a mini-

And this morning I am grieved to find from the Times that the Company is an utter smash. The Directors have bolted, and the shareholders will lose every penny of their money." "Isallgone? Nothing left?" "Net a sixpence, and you remain liable for calls to the amount of about as much more.

Poor Mary's fortitude quite gave way "O dear, what shall I do? I haven't a friend in the world." "j* o, no, don't say that, Miss Mary,' said Sylthorpe, in a gentle patronizing manner "it isn't as bad as that comes to. I haven't disguised my own feelings towards you, ar.J though you've lost your moi.e),you know that needn't make any difference between you and me. My affection ain't of the mercenary sort: in fact, as I got you into the mess (though with the best of intentions, mind you), it's only fair I should get you out of it.'

Mary had hidden her face in herb inds. but she became aware from the increased intensity of the all-pervading scentedoaparomt that Sylthorpe was drawing ing nearer to her, and in another moment bis mm was around her waist. She drew herself up .proudly. "Sir, 1 am willing to believe you mean kind! v, but your oiler under such circumstances is an insult. Be good enough to leave me."

Ir was two days after this scene tha MarV Hope, with the Times before her. wr.s answering advertisements, and had (billed and scaled her letters, and now. with her desk before her, was counting er little store of ready money, and calculating how long she could at any ratesubsist before she found employment. In replacing her pur-e, her hand fell upon a portrait, which she took out and gazed a' tondlv. Dear old Geoffrey, if you hail v\d how different my future would haw been! I suppose I ought to say God's will be d',:ie, but, O, it's very, very hard!" A few mom r.ts she continued gazing through lu-r tears lit the portrait, when aj sharp knock at the outer door ».riled her, and she replaced it in the desk. She leard Mrs. Murgatrovd in conversation with some one, and then a quick, well re.incmbered voice sa'd, "Where? Thi. room!" And in anether moment ihc door was Hung open, and Mary Ho Je -was sobbing in her lost lover's arms.

Geoffrey Howard had been dangerous wounded, and had been a prisoner for greater pat ol a year in an Indian dungeon, where for many weeks his life .ung upon a thread by reason ofan at uck of mal'gnant fever. He had landed in England but twelve hours previously, at.d had lest not :i moment in seeking the iresence of his darling and her father, fr he was. ofcdUrse, ignorant of Bernard (one's death. Mary. too. had much to tell, and nestling by Geoffrey's side, her inle white fingers hidden in the rugged brown hands of her lover, which held them as though they would never again let them go she -told hi all she had /one through—ihe loss of her father, the historv of the will, and, lastly, the loss of iier little fortune. •'I don't understand it," said Geoffrey.

The man has been playing some very deep game." I "P.-rhaps Ve rcallv wished to et me more—what do you call it?-—interest tor mv money. I dare say it was meant kindly enough, though it has happened sr» unfortunatel v."

I don't believe'it darling. It all had gone well vott would simply have recieved v«ur 3 per cent and Mr. S y'horpc would have pocketed the differ••nce."

O, Geoffrey. Geoffrey I'm afrai vou have come home very uncharitable. Rrsid s. what does it matter about a lot ofshwid munev.i.ow I have got you back again? Unless, indeed,you would have liked me better for having the money."

There is onlv one possible answer to such an accusation, and Mrj. Howard made it that is to say, he called Mary a little gooze, kissed her, and dropped the subject. On leading her, he took a Hansom cab, and drove to the office of the liquidator of the company, when, on his stating that he desired to make 6ome inqitries

behalf of one of their share

holders, Mr. Slythorpe. he was informed to his astonishment, that there was not, and never had been, any -shareholder of that name on the books of the Company. He

inquired whether, perchance, the

shares were standing in Miss Hope's own name, and again was answered in the negative. Utterly bewildered, he drove to Mr. Slythorpe's office. Mr. Slythorpe was at home, and he speedily found himself in the attorney's presence. Mr. Slythorpe was a little nervous. He was alwavs a little nervous with stranger^ tiil he knew their business, and Maj. Howard's announcement that he had called on behalf of Miss Mary Hope did not tend to increase hts confidence. He was, however, far from suspecting Maj Howaid's indentity, but jumped to the conclusion that he was a hostile solicitoi employed bv Miss Hope to .call htm to account. Mai. Howard's next remark tened to confirm that impression. "You 6tated to Miss Hope, I think, a couple of days ago, that the property bequeather to her bv her father's will had ti*en in\ ested in the Wheal Marina Company, which has just come to grief. You are of course aware that an investment upon such a rotten security was a gross breach of trust, for which you arc liable." "Not at .all the power of investment is unlimited." Indeed, shares of companies a especially included.'* "You are cctainof that ''Qjite so. I drew ttie will myself." "Very good. The shares stood, I suppose, in* your own name." "Ye-es in my name, ofcours«, as sole Trustee." "Then pray how is it, Mr. Slythorpe that I don't find your name among he list of share-holders of the Company?"

Mr. Slythorpes countenance fell. "Because—because^—I may as well make a clean breast of it—to tell you the truth, the money never was in that Company at all. It was a false aurm, sir, a false alarm." "Then where on earth is the money, sir? And

what

do you mean by a false

alarm?" "I'll tell you, ifjrou'll have a little patience. As a brother solicitor, I'm sure you won't press harder on me than you're quite obliged. Miss Hope's money is in the Wheal Mary Ann, one of ihe most flourishing coin panics going, aid her shares are worth just double what I gave for them."

Then what on eauh induced you 1*11 teil you. Between ourselves, I've taken an uncommon fancy to Miss Hope and I had made up. my mind to make her, Mrs.,S. but so aehow sha don't take to quite us kindly as I could have wish, •d. Now, the other morning, when I

Wheal Manna, and the similarity of name gave me quite a turn, for just at the first moment I thought it was the Wheal Mary Ann. And then the thought struck me, 'If I had only been, my lad yo«i'd have been glad enough to say "Yes" to Samuel Slythorpe.' And then I thought I'd try it. It was merely a little, innocent, practical jokt—a roose d'amour. sir a mere roose d'amour." And Mr. Slythorpe smiled. "You atrocious scoundrel!"

There was a sudden blow, a heavy crash. and Mr. Samuel Slythorpe measured his length on the fleor. The clerk Outside, hearing the downfall, popped his head into the room, but seeing the st»tt of things discreetly retired again,remark•ing "Begpardon thought vou ran* sir."
