I shall never forget the night of Miss imers’ return. Her cheery “How do you do Peter?” thrilled my old bones, as did the touch of the little hand she kindly offered me, in memory perhaps of my long service and the many rides up and down the broad hall she had had on my shoulder, screaming the while with glee. She fitted about all the evening like a bee from flower to flower, and it wasas though a burst of sudden sunshine had illumined the whole house. She was a fair, sweet English girl; but, as all were seated about the dinner table, I could not but acknowledge that the palm of beauty must be awarded to her triend. I had never seen a more exquisite face. It fairly haunted me; it held in it the fire of the tropics. the ice of the Arctic. the light of the heavens, the shadow of the nizht—each expression in contra- diction to the other, each tending to produce onious warfare. I did not think this all out myself, but some ‘one long after in describing Miss Revere’s face thus worded aad I knew then it had made clear the enigma my old brain had so long tried to solve. I would even then have been envious, for Miss Chalmers’ sake, but that she seemed 80 fond, so devoted to her friend, that her very gladness was an unconsious rebuke to me. it was not long before the house was filled with guests—ladies and ladies’ maids, gentlemen gnd their yalets, coming going, filling the place with gaiety and excitement.’ Then came the announcement of a grand ball, with invitations to all the county. Glad enough was I when the evening it was to take place actually arrived, and I could feel the bustie of anticipation was at an end. ic On her way down to the drawing-room, Miss Flo peeped in to see the tables, and I thought for that once we might compare her to Miss Aline. She was dressed in white, her arms and neck bare, but glittering with precious stones. Some of the family jewels her father had had reset, and presented to her that very morning at the breakfast table. I was not ely to for- get the circumstance, for the old feeling of half- dislike with which I had at first regarded Miss Aline swept over me as I fancied an envious glitter sparkled in the black eyes, as they rested on the white, glittering gems. Il I do, Peter?” asked my young mistress, reeping me a mock courtesy, as six done when a tiny girl; and I half Believe, instead of answering her, I brushed away a tear. The ball was a grand success, and the eun had risen ere the sound of the wheels of the last age filled with departing guests had died away. There had been many made welcome that night, but none, I well Knew ed awarmer one than young Mr. Earle. who had returned home from a year’s abeence in foreign countries only twenty-four hours before. J caught a glimpse of him once as he was dancing with Miss Flo. Even in that fleeting moment I saw how tenderly his strong arm clasped her, how proudly his handsome eyes looked down upon her, how flushed with hap- Ee was her own fair face, half hidden on his road shoulder; and my heart gave a glad, aot leap that so joyous a future was assured er. I well knew what was the unexpressed family wish, for young Mr. Earle’s estates ad- joined our own. “They were unfettered, unen- cambered, and in every way a splendid patri- mony. Thad turned away from this fleeting glimpse among the great folks, my old brain filled with its idle dreams of the future, when my eyes chanced to fall upon one who, like myself, was engrossed in the animated scene beyond us. It was Miss Flo's friend. but oh, how changed! The mask had fallen from her beautiful face. The great black eyes, fairly scintillating with suppressed feeling, were fixed upon those two who moved in such perfect harmony to the music. A drop of blood was on her scariet lip, where her little white teeth had rested. One small hand was involuntarily clenched. Her mouth moved, but no sound issued from it. T stood transfixed, a strange, cold shiver rpn- ning through me. It was this fury whom Miss Flo, gentle and unconscious, regarded as her dearest friend. Of what stuff might be made her dearest foe? Tremembered then the look I had seen these same eyes fix upon the jewels. Wasshe envious of my young lady's fortune? What danger might not threaten her through this beautiful pan- theress? And yet how dared I, an humble sery- ant, utter a word of warning? Even with these thoughts passing in quick succession through my mind, there was so sud- den and instantaneous a change swept over Miss Revere’s expression that I could scaree recall the other, except as the result of some hideous conjuring of my own fancy. her, leaning on Miss Flo was coming toward Mr. Earle’s arm. I returned to my duties with a heavy heart. I felt a shadow of ill was pending over us, yet I almost forgot it next day, when my young lady's formal engagement to Mr. Earle was announced. So loved and protected, what possible harm could come to her, even through a woman's malice? Ah, my ‘unanswered! these two young hearts to flow towards each other, obeyi: had loved ed otb 7 as thor sisterhood round the same Us pees it was the natural sequence which all had an- ticipated. Therefore, save that Mr. Earle rer] with us even more constantly than of old, that there was a new finsh on Miss Flo's « which summoned Miss Flo from his side? However that might be, when left alone, with slow, reluctant movement he rose, and, passing throngh the open window, walked with uncer- tain steps into the room beyond. The singer on. figure standing still and si- she see that lent just beyond the threshold? Perhaps the evening shadows hid him, as her voice suddenly died away in a choking sob, and her head bent forward on the keys. Instantly he was by her side. Instantly he had raised her head to his breast, with his , faithless arme clasped about her. “ Aline!” he sald, “my love, my love! And then uplifting the ¢rimson lips to bis he a and ee ey nanght was busy with my silver, knowing of this, but Smniaring have @ might unfold to my suspicions, when I heard close beside me a low, startled cry. I up. Miss Flo was standing on the id of the music-room. She had seen all. She would have fallen but that, spring forward, I caught her in my old arms, as Mr. came hastily toward us. 1 forgot his rank and my position as I waved him off; but even in my bitter indignation | pa dagr come T felt eying he suffered when I saw white look misery on his young, handsome face. * Up the broad stairs I carried my lady to her room, and laid her on her couch. Then her mother came, and I left her, but as I passed through the room beyond I saw lying in empty grate some torn scraps of paper, Me- chanically, with a servant's orderly instinct, I ‘stooped and gathered them up, hen my eye was caught by the meaning of a single sen- , “the heir of the adjoining estate—” Of course, a “gentleman” would have goneno further, but I was but a mere servant, with the interests of the family whom I had served more than two-score years, over and beyond ail else. I carefully carried the little hancful of papers | tomy room, and there, bit by bit, with hard work and infinite spelling, I made them almost a perfect whole. “Delay your coming a little longer, dear father,” wrote the traitress. ** The fish is nearly in my het. I could laugh at his weakness were there not such a stake. He is the heir to the adjoining estate, acres on acres of which I can see from my window asI write. I shall be a grand English lady yet; and then, who will dare taunt me with being the daughter of a circus— rider? We will wipe out that stain, then, on my mother’s side, and you shall have your re- ward for all the sacrifices you have made for me.” Had I discovered a vein of gold I could not have gloated more over those few words. Ah, now indeed I could avenge my young lady and punish her recreant lover. But the time was not yet ripe. I would wait until he had given her his old and honored name, and then I would unmask her ere she had reaped the glory and too late for him to retrieve the shame. With this determination I went back to my datles, but, ing through the hall, Mr. Earle’s voice, low and yet excited, caught my ear. ~Thave been mad!" he said. “Aline, forgive me for the wrong I have done you, ‘but you must hear the truth. I now know that my feel- ing towards you has been the intoxication of your fascination. Never can I wipe from my inemory my darling’s white, unconscious face!

I, myself, clused the hall door next morning, bright and | early, as the carriage drove Miss Aline Revere on the first stage on her journey Lon- donward. We never saw or heard from her again. For long weeks Miss Flo refused even to see Mr. Arthur Earle—for months to look upon him asa friend. Poor fellow! We were all sorry for him during this time, for he had spoken traly— his love had never wavered! But at last there came a day when Miss Flo to believe this, and then—ah, then the light stole back into her eyes, and the color to her cheeks. She's been ahappy wife thismany a year now, and old Peter is growing almost useless, saveto ride her children. as he once rode her, , through the old halls upon his old shoulders, to the lish laughter, which keeps his echo of their old heart young. a The Water Famine in Richmond.
