, » 4 q THE EVENING STAR. MRS. BEAUCHAMP'’S VENGEANCE. Cuarrar V.—THe Sucoxp BLow BEGINS THE QUARREL. { Censidering how easily two people quarrel | abont foolish trifles, and misinterpret phrases | or actions, it is remarkable that there should | ever be a difficulty in getting up a good “row,” | whee one of the antagonis:s desires it. If; those who love and respect each other quarrel | and regret to do so, surely one would think it must be very easy to quarrel when there isany desire forit! Yet, Lappeal to the experience { of every middle-aged reader, whether he has _ mot occasionally feund it by no means an easy | thing to pick a e uarrel. ou may be ready | enough to strike, but if your adversary won't | put up his guard, you are shamed into not | striking. You may even lash Jones into a} rage, and strike ; but, suppose ihe blow is not | returned ? you then leara that it is the second { blow which begins the quarrel. Rackit found himself in this position. The | PeberAd informed him of her having broken off | her engagement with Briggs; and he received | the intelligence with the most mitigated rap- ture. But she refused to see this, and accepted his feeble excuses. When he said he was Pp im meditation, she inquired if it was respecting | ' their future lot? “ een said he, ‘*l was meditating on my | wrens ctor ire Virgins of the Sun.” playful reproach she said, «I thought a over would have had other objects of medi- tation.” « But I am an artist—and artists. you know, area ‘ways self-absorbed.” omen do not like that—and I warn you, I om @ very woman.” « Not a tyrant, 1 hope,” he said, coldly. “No,” she replied, tenderly placing her hand on his arm, ‘‘a slave.” Rackit mentally observed that this was the velyet of which Briggs complained. “You must make me asharer in all your thoughts,” she said, + and in all your cares.” «+ Impossible—an artist can never. 7 | Have a care! Remember I shall havearight toknow. Asa wite, I may insist.” “My dearest creature, let us be perfectly { frank with each other. I musi tell you before- | hand, that 1 shall admit of no insistance; and | that on the merest trifles I intend to have entire- | iy my own way.” *» Do you revolt already ?” “Yes,” he said, trying to get angry, “already and always. It is necessary to be piain at the out:et. I never could,and I never will, yield | toa woman's caprices.” Here was a blow well delivered from his | deft; and he expected a rejoinder. She looked | a oe staggered; but takiog his unwilling hand said :— «+ Well, then, it is / who must yield.” ¥ was clear to him that that match wouldn't it. “With very bad grace,” ene * could I even seem to thwart was soon to ke my husband.” ™ And if he were already your husband!” «That would be a very ditferent matter, you Know.’ { «En !? said Rackit quickly. | «In a husband,’ she replied, with diabolical eoaxingness, “+ my confidence would necessari- | ly be absolute.” The claws were shown, but it was clear | they were not prepared to scratch—just yet. | ** You turn trom me. Look me in the eyes, | Charles.” He telt that if he looked he was lost: so he didn’t. Butshe took him by the shoulders and turned him round. Their eyes met. Hers | were so blue, so tender, so bewitching, that it was all over with his resolution. A quarrel ‘was hopeless. After an infinite amount of lover's prattie, | which I need not repeat, they were on the best | of termsewhen Bob came in to say that Char- Jotte insisted on speaking with him. He stepped into the adjoining room, and | there had to encounter a young woman who gzeemed by no means indisposed to quarrel. “Mr. Kackit, sir,’ she said, “1 wish know this: am J to sit, or not!’ “Yes, yes, of course ; but mot yet.” Because I'm tired of waiting. Very well, then, my dear, go nome.” on oat i don’t want to go home witha ‘nea in continued, the man who | to | rA Then remove the flea, and go home without | it? « But I don’t want to go tilll have sit. It | was settled shouldsit. My family knows i'm | to sit ; and sit I will.” i “So you shall; but uot now.” «1 Gare s: indeed ; notnow means neyer.” i “ You foolish girl, 1 tell you 1 want you to, ait, but it must be some other day; I’m partic- larly engaged just now, and as you don't want to wait, Zo home. lf you don’t want to go home, wait” «I want to sit, and don’t want to wait. Do yougever find yourself between two stools, air’ a” «+ Often, my dear, but I only sit on one. * « That's it—I want to sit on one. Several minutes were passed iu trying to per- suade Charlotie that she was not ill-used; she began to cry; this made Kackit impatient; and by the time he had got rid of her, and re-enter- ed his printing room, he was in an impatient and irritabie frame of mind. What should await him here buta scene with the widow, who had heard a female voice in anger and tears, and who began to form ugly suspicions of the morality or her intended husband ; and these she began very plainly to intimate to him. He was in no mood to listen patiently to such nonsense, even had he no secret desire to quarrel with the widow: and when he bad bronght her to something =. an explicit ayowal of jealousy, he said ickly :— “ Then am I to understand you are of a jeal ous temper ?” «* Do I not love?” she answered. «No evyasions. Speak plainly. Because it is requisite that you should know beforehand, that 4 am one of those who hate jealousy, and think it monstrous, ridiculous, insupport- able.” «Then for your sake,” she said, submissive- hy, “I will cure myself of it.” | it wae plain: she was a demon in crinoline; | and she would not quarrel. } «You will learn to correct all your bachelor | habits when we are married.” «Perhaps. And yet no one knows. Bad habits cling to one like a damp shirt. I almost | fear I shall never change.” « Then I must learn to accommodate myself te them, for I shall at any rate be always cer- tain of one thing.” « And that is?” « Your love.” “Seriously, do you think love ofsuch supreme importance ?” «The one important thing in life.” «Then why did you not marry Briggs, who adores yout” «Nothe.” «He does,J assure you. His love is immense! He was here just now, and his grief at the idea of losing you was so pathetic, so heart-rendiug— | that, to confess the simple truth, I felt ashamed of my position. I felt t I had no right to in- flict on a human being s0 great a wrong as to rive him of the woman he adored.” | rs. Beauchamp raised her handkerchief toher eyes and said, almost sobbing, * You felt that?” A bright gleam danced before him. He had evidently touched the right chord at last. Wo- men are #o sentimental * Yes,” he said, «so profoundly did I feel it, that I began to ask myself whether it would not be a nobler part to sacrifice my own happi- | ness—to relinquish my claim—and to be content | | | ‘with that proudest of emotions, the preference of another's welfare to your own. id + Noble, noble fellow ! } His heart bounded. The success was as greatas it was unexpected. He blessed the | sentimental nature of women, and then contin- | ued H «Yes, Emily, 1 thought this, and I feel it | aull. Much as I should rejoice to call you | mune, 1 feel it would be nobler, better wiser, to give you up.” oble creature!” she exclaimed, removing | the handkerchief from her radient face. “You | make me love you more. By those words you Rave riveted forever the bonds which bind me | she sobbed. orcs. ‘2 twasno use. She would have him, and his | struggles were vain. It seemed tohim as if | Nemertis, in the form of a widow, had attached herself to his lite. It was— “* Venus toute entiere a ra proie attachee.” And he bad nothing left but to resign himself Eitber she could not, or she would not, under- eon him ; one alternative was as fatal as the other.
