Special Corresponiience of The Chicago Tribune, Brooxtty, Jan.13.—Mr. Morris to-day com- the longest speech, I believe, on record in thece United States. But, though its length was prodigious, its breadth was in proportion. I have nothing todo withan analysis of the ad- dress, but i is only fair that Ishould bear per- sonal witness to tho phenomenal resolution and coursgeof thespeaker. He entered upon his arduous task with a voice so painfully impeded by hoarseness that not twenty men in conrt re- alized that he had commenced. He ended, still in violent despite of his cold, with an actual har- yicane of invective. Ashe drove furiously be- fore the passionate simoon of his own feelings, every nervein hearing distanca of him ‘was strained almost to the poiut of rupture, lest, with s tremendous crash, he should make utter ship- wreck of hie speech. He fought his pbysical fhability with such desperation that the burning words seemed totear their way out of his in- fismoed throat, snd each to leaye a fresh lacera- tion a it cecaped. HR AUDIENCE, THE PRINCIPALS, THE LAWYERS, 6 TRE s0RY— iuevers Judge himself—all seeuied fascinated by ibebot and passionate fary of the man. Per- haps the construction of the speech itself was zamay. Perhaps the method of its expresmon was spasmodic and fitful. But everybody in Court felt that Morris’ very soul flowed ont in his thapsodied sentences ; and, in spite of himself, everybody slid into the sympathetic tide, and, fora while, ®as as passionate a5 Morris himself’ in the absolute certainty of Mr, Beecher's guilt. ‘Whes the last echo of his last word bad died -say, asort of shiver ran round the Court,—as if, in the subsequent minute of silence, men for the frst time’ found themselves face to face eith ackeleton.

PARTIES INVOLTED ‘ue ease were in Court. Mr. Beecher’s face 4 the same curiously-inconsistent- expression mirth, restrained with difficulty, which bas seupied it so far during the whole trial. Ican poly compare that expression to the appearance af some reckleas practical joker, who sees his victim up to his nock in hie cunning pitfall, and sho can ecarcely keep from exposing the charac- ter of the trap, More plainly scill, Mr. Beecher'’s almost jocular manner, his frequent smiles {always at the most serious incidents of the wrial), his airy habit of whispering badinage, his playful notes to hie lawyers,—all these things teem to auggtst that, when the prosecution shall have completed its worst possible showing of his tase, his counsel will presently arise and in five words dispose of the whole tremendous scandal 48 a hoax, 80 monstreus, yet £0 simpls, that for ttleast twenty-four houra it shail be the catch- word of Christendom. This is the notion thet Mr. Beecher's demeanor generates in my own und, and, though I cannot but recognize the }.tpendous folly of such an inferenca on m: :t, still do X find myself waiting more an impatiently for the denocement which I tuum cennyt come, Itis absolutely impossible thst Mr. Beecher's merriment owes its being to the posecssion of such a key to the hideous tcigma. Even were it thus, how could he en- lure with lnughter euch terrible damage as Mor- tis bas already inflicted upon the value of his tepatation, mereiy to give the clown's grin af- terward, aud ask knowing!r, “WHICH OF Us 18 THE VicTE?” ‘Tbe alternative theory, that Mr. Deecheria but tcting a part, J am even less ready to accept as a teasonable deduction.

To my bewildered judgment, guilt % heinous 28 his is vouched to be, dieguised by tranquility so flawiess nd so constant, seems porsible. But mine is not the chair of Peter, bag my voice the infallibility of his succes- Mss. Beecher, who, like her husband, bad iivited Mrs. ‘Tilton with a cordisiity of srhich ‘ae vigor, I must confees, looked like ostenta- tion, grew more aud more scornful as the lawyer made streaming rage of her consort’s Christianity. I: was easier to believe that she played a painful snd unwomaniy part. I might even be forgiven for suspecting taat ahe had conetructed her facial expresmcy before 3 looking-glase, and frozen her own features into the presentment of Sbedlute and bitter contempt. The face was 2s setard(mryI say it?) as ghastly as thatof s corpes. It told of a martyrdom beyond even the sorush of her sex ; but J cannot pronounce who bad nailed her onthe cross, or twined the erown of thorns which furrowed her venerable brow.

Then, as they moved away from her, she became moody tnd anirteresting once more. Sho was dressed in the dark purple suit of yesterday, looking al- ‘ost dowdyish, so slovenly was it worn. She wea much bent, and her head hung wn the side 80 in the old apologetic sort of way, a8 if shame- folly protesting against 2 sontence of utter ion, Her appearance in court to-day - Was too Inte in the history of the trial to effect n vengation, but it evoked disapproval from all ndes. Numberless expressions of disgust greeted herentry, and, as she and her escorts (who 2eemed to have Mr. Beecher’s bubbling sense of %joyment) took their seats, more than onehurt- fal inference was established. HER HUSBAND 4 ‘ooksd in better health than he did yesterday, aaving, to all appearances, secured for himself a ood night's eleep. His bair has become almost ‘8 grav as Mr. Beecher's, and prematurity has isepened every line in his ascetic face. Indeed, he looked like an anchorite whose penance had Aaten into his very soul, and thence numbed ihe 2erves ou which most human emotions use to Play. A constant film seems to veil Tilton’s eyes, &sif the retina could accept no impression from Without, but reflected only the internal fires ‘hich must be raging in this ice-mniled volcano.

Napoleon would have trembled had such a cullen battery of cross-eraminations confronied him asthe park of legal artillery which frowned at Mr. Maverick. But Mr. Ev- arta wanted nothing of the editor, and so, with a sigh of profound relief, he descended from the chair and resumed charge of his reporters. “PRANOIS D, MOULTON,” ¢ cried the Clerk, and, for the firet time to-day, the familiar bum of expectation buzzed about the Court, Mr. Moulton took his own time to respond, ‘but st last ascended to the fatal chair, and took his seat as if the grim prospect had.no terrors for him.

Asthe two went on building up tho first story of Mr. Tilton’s case, it became more and more evidently an exhibition of exquisite mechanical skill, So far, Mr. Monlton's evidence bas disclosed no novelty; but his manner and his dispassion- ate vigor seem to vitalize his statements, and make them instinct with a force which, to some judgments, they did not appear to possess. 5 _. _COURT-NOTES. Judge Morris was perfectly voiceless directly after his powerfal apostrophe to the jury. ‘The letter of resignation once signed by Mr, Beecher bas created s profound impression.

From Harper's Bazar, How my pretty cousin became possessed of Such an unreasoning horror of all the ficece- bearing, mutton-producing species, was perhaps 8 family mystery. But, if like the hereditary ghost of our niediwyal ancestors, its secret yeat- ed in the head of the house, my jovial and mat- ter-of-fact uncle kept it eacrediy concealed, and, indeed, never gave sign of having any oppres- sive weight on his mind. Since those days I have often sought to account for it according to philosophy and science. I have attributed it to perhaps some ante-natal impression, calling to mind the case of King James, who would shiver at the sight of adrawn sword, and who on at least'oue memorable occasion poked 3 kneeling subject inthe oye when dolivering the knightly accolade. Ihave even indulged in wider flights of theory, and traced in imagination the lineage of my gentle kinswoman to the prehistoric wolf of sophistical and sanguinary character, con- ceiving that porhaps she, in the dovelopment of .the race, found herself carrying tho burden of expiation for that ‘supremely illogical crime againat the lamb that did not trouble tha water. Not that we ever worried ourselves in that happy time with such specn!stions. ‘Far from it, It was enough that Mamie Stuart hada pecoliar uureasoning aversion that was all her own. Whereas other girls, in this age of universal dif- fusion of knowledge, considered the mouse a yen- omous and carniverous animal, from whoso at- tacks it behooved ‘all womankind to flee to the sbeights of sofa and piano-stool with shrieks and dishevelment, my cousin was moved to similar demonstrations by the proximity of the no less harmless sheep. Indeed, 2s feminine logic goes, she had a certain amount of reason on her side, inasmuch as the sheep is the larger animal, and in that way truly more formidable. It was simply a blind physical or moral horror rather than fright or terror that seemed to take posaes- sion of the girl whenever sho happened to come near one of these animals. Thero was no sense init, of course. But arepulsionexistedas avident as that between the two opposing poles of the magnet. I had seen Mamie affected in that way only once; and although I joxed her unmer- ou about it, J soon saw it was no subject for -joking. We baa forgotten all about it, in fact, and but for the concurrence, of several accidents, whose happening I shall endoavor to relate in their poper connection, we might have passed throngh ife without recalling this strange idiosyncrasy. The first was an exhibition which Mamie made when we were all on a visit of inspection st John Lamson's farm. John was 8 very good sort of fellow, I suppose. I ought to say so now, at any rate, after what has happened, for he bebaved like 8 msn through itall. And even in those days tho only ain I could lay to his charge, when brought squarely to the point, ‘was his great fondness for Mamie, or, what was yet worse in my eyes, her equally great fond- ness for John. They were accepted and ac- knowledged lovers; and while 1 should have considered it a personal insult had John shown less devotion or failed in any of thosedemonstra- tions of regard, voluntary or involuntary, which accompany the tender passion, it was quite an- other matter to seé my pet consin give herself up to love and worship aby man—except it had been myself—in such s very unreserved way. Moreover, Uncle Stuart approved the match. he twas rich, 80 waa John. Nor was the model farm (ahobbyon which John wasted enough substance to support two families) sufficiently absorbing to deier thé complacent lover from agreeing to settle down, when married, in the city house around the corner, on the next block, which was to be the paternal wedding gift. His farm, with its costly and thorongh-bred live stock, was the only object in life that seemed to interest him enough to find: any place in his thoughts along with Mamie. If he had any par- ticular strength of chaczacter, it sppeared to sleep in the easy existence he was leading, tak- ing everything comfortably, not, to say easily. He wass tolerably good- ing man, tall, big, and blonde, and if any criticism were to be mada of s face that seemed hardly worth the trouble, it would be to the affect that the forehead was slightly retreating, and the features of the lower part of the face somewhat bent or huddled to- gether. But with his long mustache and his glowing curly hair, these defects, if they wera such, passed notice entirely. I should probably | have never noticed them but for what bap- neds Poe was when John drove us all ont one Sep- tember afternoon to see his farm that Mamie, for the first time Ee bein revived the momory of her constitutional antipathy to sheep. I cou!d seo the little girl fighting against it as well oa sho might, but her resistance ended in a precipi- tate fight from the spot where John was proudly exhibiting his Cotawolds and South-Downs for ’ our admiration. : * “ Guess the lady's been butted, sir,” said ono of the stock bends, respectfully, touchmg his hatto John. ‘ Knowed of just such another myself. My own sister, sir, was butted when she was& baby. Never the same since. Growed up to bea woman, and -never could abide the sight of aeheep. She jilted sdrover for noth- ing else in the world, Married a tailor, sir.” “Why didn't you tell me, Mamie ?” said Jobo, ag we all stood around drinking a stirrap-cup of Alderney milk in, the dairy, where the trembling girl hadtaken refuge. ‘I wouldo't have bad it happen for the world, Thst sheep shall‘be made into matton to-morrow, drawn and quartered for treason.” **No! don’t for anything!" exclaimed Mamie, now quite recovered. ‘I know I am as silly as ailly can be, but I can’t help it any more than I can help ”—and here she apparently made ampio amends by ending her sentence ‘in a whisper reaching only her lover's ear, the effect of, which was to cases finsh to rise over his fsce ands smiie of such happintas to appear thereon as to turn my soul green with jealousy. In my heart I knew how she had finished that sentence, ex- plaining her conduct by an analogy between un- reasoning love and unreasoving fear, whose ap- plication John at least did not care to question. + A sheep has been known to bite,” romarked my uncle, gravely. John's next visit to his farm resulted in real disaster. Ho came around to the house with s headache, and Mamie’s pretty persistence in de- manding to cosset the big fellow on the library sofa with handkerchiefs and cologne and such things would have prevatled over anything buat his hobby. There was some drainsge to be ex- amined before tuo winter set in, and, although the equinoctial storm had begun with a cheerless drizzle, John had his way and went, He came homo in a shiver. He went to his bachelor bed with a chill which no blankets, even when hia great-coat was added atop of his dress- iug-gown, could quell. In the morning rolls od coffee were on abomination, and omelet a mockery. ‘Dressing was to him s labor of Her- cules, and the prospect of going down town a direfulthought, Hoe rested, flaccid, all day, hot andcoldby turns, protesting that he was not sick; but by evening he dispatched his man for Dr, Broughton, and that eminent practitioner neéded little of his skill in dixgnosis to determine what was the matter when ha found John tossing his long length on the lounge, “sprawling legs and arms about in uneasy motion, and tumbling His onrly blonde hair in still greater confusion. “All right to-morrow? Of courve yon will be, or the day after, perhaps. Only you needn't be ins hi about it, my boy,” said the ductor, as fie took Jeave of the unwilling patient, whom he had seen comfortably in bed. ‘*Don’t fret your- self. ane got you between my thumb snd finger by." . A this he had a nurse installed there before miduight; and by morning John’s feeble protest sgainst being fed with medicine from s Strange hand, with which he greeted the doctor's assistant, had changed into the flighty gabbie and restless muttorings of semi-delinum. The very strength of the man seemed to chalienge the power of. the disease to do its work quickly andsurely. The fever scized him and tortured bim ravenously. The vigorous nature which had fought off-the symptoms almost to the very end seemed all st once to fly in disastrous ront, and lexve all to the enemy in fall possession. Mamie had to know it as s00n as any one, for John was to take her to the opera at the opening night of the season. It was not a pleasant thing totell ber that, instead of talking sweet non- sense inevening dressto her at the Academy, her lover'was mumbling delirious phrases, per- haps not more nonsensical, hovever. in the in- sensate ears of a hired attendant. Perhaps tho pity of this contrast strack her soul For the it words she said, witha prettily heroic expan- sion of her little figure, were : “Father, I must go to him!” Uncle Stuart had a very fair idea of diplomacy in managing his motherless daughter, and there- fore he only said : “My -poor Httle girl! You shall goto John just as soon as youcan. I will have Dr. Brough- ton stop in héro on his way and arrange it with ou.” : : ‘It was done; and, a8 Uncle Stuart bad antici- pated, Dr. Broughton’s experience with such cases enabled him to convince. Mamie that she had at least better sleep overnight on the sub- t. sete it could not go on 0 Jang. The doctor’a 9 was speaking quite ‘and suxious ingrs re} grew lesz assoring ;-and one morn- || yet ly with mo in the library, we hearil a sob from the consorvatory, whose curtained: entrance way directly behind us, and there appeared Mamio, tho picture of heart-brolen woe, tears brimming over her soft eyes, andthe very ribbon at her throat quivering with the motion of tho heart beneath, “You would have kept it from me,” said she, ‘with reproacbful eyes and accom. “I shall go to John now ;” and she AVOPE Dat us, dropping roses and violeta from her ids as she went, liko a stricken Flora. ~ Go to Jobn she did. And Ihave no doubt that the gentle presence which the invalid could not recognize in his dolirinm, the quiet attentions, and the subtle essence of devoted love which pervaded ell like & healiny ether, must have strengthened and comforted the struggling spirit in its ight for longer possession of its racked tenement. Certain it is that John somehow pulled past the erivis. ieebly recognized us all, amiled s ghastly smile when Mamie kissed him, and entered on the period whon, in the proper course of events, he should recover. Here was another puzzle for Dr, Broughton. His patient should have began to gain in strength, but ho did not. He still Iny thero, speochless and help!=" is constitution seem- ingly powerless for re. .on. Each day John’s long face grew longer, and the doctor's ‘length- ened with it. His polse sank usitil only the feeblest vibration murked the beating: of the heart that used to thump so stoutly against tho broad breaat of the young man: There seemed, indeed, little work for Jobn’s heart to do, so bloodiess had the poor fellow become. He lay there like s vampire’s victim, helplessly and hopelessly feeling the vital fluid ebb from his veins day by day. The transfusion of lamb’s blood, from a healthy and livivg specimen of that animal, into the veins of s patient sufforing from anwmis, or from such a decline of vitatity and circulation as in John’s case, was 8 much less common opera- tion a few years ago than itis now. Bnt this, in Dr. Broughton’s opinion, was the ‘last and only hope of our friend’ It waa undertaken the very day on which Mamie, finally succumbing to fa- tigue and anxiety, was sent to bed with a slow fever, having very mach the same symptoms that preceded John’s attack. It was nothing much, after all; but it kept ber away from John, and allowed her to know of the operation only by messages brought twice daily from the sick- room of her lover. # ‘The lamb was chosen from John’s own stock, bronght into town, acd established in the car- risgo-house," under treatment for repose and quiet; and on the afternoon of the day when Mamie fell sick, the Cotswold was brought into the chamber by the awe-struck shepherd. The creature had suffered mueh st the hands of Dr. Broughton and bis ssaociate, in the way of bay- ing its veins tied np to limit the circulation to the jugular, and it needed only the last painless incision of the lancet, a3 % cup was quickly in- verted over the orifice, and the blood came puff- ing ont. Slowly through the cup, through the glass, whero it showed 8 strange red, taronghs the flexi- ble tube in the Doctor's hands, and through tho needle-like duct, flowad the stream of life from John’s lamb to John’s heart. ‘It was over in a few minutes, and the patient, after some queer pains in hia back and a tempo- rary shortness of breath, want off into quiet sleep, and awoke refroshed. Jt was a success. ‘The forlorn hope hadsucceeded. Dr. Broughton was self-satistiod snd congratulatory: inele Btuart fairly owned up that John’s experimonts “in breeding had at last proved of aome practical Benstit, since he had produced animals of as good blood as his own. Bo we all thought, az John grew daily strong- er; and Memie on her sick-bed clasped her hands and thanked God in as pure a prayer as ever maiden minglod with tears. The one strange thing was that John seemed as thin in the face as ever. Another strange thing, though not such s very unusual result of this sickness, was that the fever, loath to jeave its victim without some souvenir of its visitation, had struck maleyolently at the vocal chords of the throat whose fine baritone notes used to blend so pleasantly with the tender soprano of Mamie's, and ieft his voice rancous and harsh. ‘It was as if the east wind had crept in and found a lodgment there; and althongh the doctor gave hope that this change in timbre was only tem- porary, it must be said that Jobn was not pleas- ant as a speaker in those dazs. Rasping and strident, his tones, though weak, wore like any- thing but the breathings of love. As the day spproachad when. by the doctor's autocratic decision, Mamie would be permitted toride around to John’s house and again seo her foyer, we all felt rather chagrined that the ‘best we could show bor was such cadaverous specimen of convalescence. Not so Mamio. She was such a quivering little piece of feminin- ity all the morning that uncle bad to threaten her with bed and quinine to bring her to a sem- blance of control. “The dear, dear fellow,” with tears in her eyos. “Frank” (petulantiy), “your watch is slow; so is the parlor clock.” The carriage ought to have been bere lonz ago. Father,” winking very hard to hide somothing tell-tale on her lashes, “I think I am strong ehough to walk.” At last we were there. Thedoor had closed softly behind us, and John was seen bolstered up in bed; with pillows bebindy him and st each side, the chair in which Mamié had watched so many Jong hours placed close to his bed, her portrait hanging where his eyea might find it in whatever position he placed himself, and one of her handkerchiefs, which she had ieft in the days of her nursing, in resch of his band. it was the most foolish thing in the world for Jobn to bave his mustache cut off, But he ssid it kept his medicine under his nose all day, and off the offending ornament came. His hair, too, had not grown again from the clipping it re- ceived when the fever hoated bia brain so that every curl was an intolerable weight; and, in fact, it was = far from attractive-looking loverto whom we brought Mamie. Sul, the adoration that shone ont of his cay- ernous eyes as we entered the door made him almost bandsome. Mamie flushed up as wo stepped over the threshold. “ Now don’t tear him to pieces im your affec- tics ; he’s tender yet,” said I, somewhat cynic- ally, anticipating a violent demonstration of raptare. But there was no need of caution. As Mz- mie's eyes rested upon John's face I felt s slight recoil in her movement. Tho flush upon her features died out, giving placa to a palior that was startling, Her hand trembled upon my arm. She was staring strangely at the sick man, and ber lips began to twist and her breath to come fast. “John\” She epoke with a gort of surprised interrogatory, rather than joyful recognition. ‘Then, in 8 quavering voice tome, " What have they done to him, Frank?” » “Why, Mamie, what in the world do you mean?” said I, in amaze. All thia passed in the moment while Uncle Stuart was closing the door behind us. As he stepped forward, with the heartiest sort of a smile on his face, Mamie whirled around to him, and spoke rapidly under her breath: “You told me they brought him to life again by putting lamb’s blood in his empty veins. You told meso! Look athim! Look athim! Oh dear! oh dear!” and the little girl seemed almost frantic with an unnamod terror. T did look at John, and suddenly it all flashed over me. There, in the emaciated features of the convalescent, were truly the distinguishing characteristics of a sheep's face. The absence of hair emphasized the peculiar effect to the sloping lines of the frontal bones; the long nose, gently bending in aristocratic curve at the end, continued the ovine contour; and the conforma- tion of lips and chin, as his besd was leaned faintly back on the pillow, completed the resem- biaoce. Once with the ides in my head, there was no éscaping it. John’s face did look like that of asheep as he lay there. Even the pel- lor of his skin, the drawn and sunken sppear- ance of the muscles of bis cheek, aud the pinch- ed and white lips, edded to the caricature, whose fantastic significance grew more herridly vivid with each instant, The look of blank amaze- ment which came into his eves as he noticed tho momentary hesitation of his betrothed completed the. portraiture. Mamie was trembling like slesf. There was nothing to be done pnt to break the spell as quickly sa possible. a “+ Jobn, old fellow,” ssid I, stepping forward with Mamie like a doad weight on my arm, “your companion in convalescence brings you greeting.” With the besttintentions in the world, I had precipitated the crisis, Had Mamie been allowed to exchange the first words in the close whis- pers of which lovers sro so fond, she might have forgotten sheep and evorything else in the happy consciousness of having John again. But there she was, half-way across the room, when John, compelled to make an effort to speak aloud, tried Bsy: « & Welcome, Mamie.” ‘The very essence of the strident tones left by the fever in his yoice seemed condensed in those two words. It was too rauch for the overwrought- ima tion of my cousin. «Bo bleata! ob,-Frank, he bleats!” ‘It was really agonizing and horrible enongh, as that poor girl eank on my arm, to ret ize in the voice of 8 sick man a striking resemblance to the Plains ee crated imal whose ens he geemed to havo . ‘He was astonished too. = ‘“ Mamie!” he cried again, making greater ex- ertion than before, and thus re ‘his tones more unoatoral ; ‘ Ti een “Qb, don’t! please don’t!"* the girl, now utterly frantic, “ ‘Take me away! You have changed lum! Oh, my John, my Johan! why did they change your blood !” Mr. Stuart and I whisked her out of the room as quickly as we could, fearing ‘the effect both upon forself and upon John. And as we went there came from the room pathetic exclamations of“ Mamie! Mamio! Mam—" and tho door closed upon what seemed only too like the bleat- ings of the Cotswold whose blood now flowed in the veina of our unlocky friend. The drive home, as may be imagined, was not altogether pleasant. But for the pathos of Ma- mie’s collapsed condition I believe that Uncle Stuart's almost motherly tenderness would havo given way before tho indignation swelling in hia heart. The poor girl lay there on the cushions; her bloodless face contrasting pitifully with their rich crimson, moaning, with now and then a flut- toring sob, seemingly stricieu in heart and ‘There was nothing for it imt to get her home as 000 a8 possible. Itwasnotabadrelapse. Mamie picked up again in s few days, and came down-atairs one suopy autumn afternoon, looking stronger, but thoughéfal. John, ‘for his part, not fally com- prebending the state ‘of affsirs, and being al- Jowed to know only that Mamie had been taken suddenly sick because of her weak condition, and was promptly recovering, worried bis honest heart but little. This could not last. “Mamie,” said I, the second day of her ap- pearance down-stairs, ‘the doctor lets John ive ont this afterngon, and I will bring him around to throw a kiss to your window.” “Don't. do it, Freak,” said my cousin, with a solemnity for which I was not prepared ; ‘don't do it, for I can’t”—and here came a sob and 5 sudden flood of tears—''I can’t see him.” a y cilly little cousin!” said I, drawing near with the purpose of administering certain cousin- ly consolations. But Mamie put out one thin hand to repulse me. “No, Fravk; Idon’t want anything of that sort. { know I am silly, I know I am wicked, and I know that all liars have their part in the lake that burneth with coal and brimstone,” spoke Mamie, with a quaint misqnotation, as if sho would spare herself nothing in the way of prospective torment for her perfidy. “But when romieed John to love him forever he was John, Now he is something else—you know— ige helped change him—you saw him take his fo from that—tnat—sheep!” © This was supremely absard, butI saw Mamie was rapidly exciting herself, and thought ailenca my best role. Hardly pausing to dab cach ‘of ber eyes with a small wet square of handker- chief, she continued, rapidly: “ZT saw it in his face, I heard it in his voice. Oh, Frank, don't make me think of it! Why do you?"—like her supposititious saucestor, the wolf, falsely accusing me of muddying the stream of hor thoughta, ‘Inevercan look st him again. Ho used tossy he could breed an thatshould equal abuman being. Now he bas bred himself.” ‘This was all too pathetic to be comio, at least to me, who knaw my cousin's constitutional dread of tho animal whose ‘life-blood was now thst of her lover, and whose features and voice seamed to havo reproduced themselves in his 80D. But the little girl was frm. She never would— she said she never could—see Jobn again. It was a sorry business getting him to understand the caso, For a Jong time he refused to believe it, He had long consultations with Dr. Broagh- ton, He lavished flowers upon Mamie all winter, hoping that what he called her hallucins- tion would wear off ifhe could keep himeelf in her mind by continuing attentions whose mem- oy, was all of the pleasant days before that fever. It was useless. along in the spring-time, snd advised him to take a trip abroad, shake off his infatuation for Ma- mie, or come back in a year if he felt no better, and try his fortune a; 5 - ‘Tho year has passed. John esme back a month ago. He is fatand brown, and wears his mus- tache waxed at tha ends. But Mamie has not changed. Tha wonderful metamorphosis of my cousin from a marvel of passionate affection to a prodigy of unreasoning dislike becomes all the more wonderful by its persistence. Last week, after I knew Jobn's fate was irrev- ocably sealed, I determined to brave whst I had never before dared, and put my own fortune to the test. Before Thad half begun my confes- sion, Mamio’s quick wits recognized my drift, and thus she closed my mouth: “I never shall forgive myself, Frank, for what happened last year, though I couldn't help it, andI can’t helpitnow. But { haven’t set for- given you for Fone part in it.” Unreasonable to the last! We are all victims together. SONNET~—-TO F. S. S.
