I regret that I should have shown myself once more without those| poor attractions which are much, per- haps, to you, but to me are no more considerable than rain that falls into ‘the sea. Youth is but a state, as pass- img as that syncope frem which you are but just awakened, and if there bo truth in science, as easy to recall; for I find, Asenath, that I must now take yeu for my confidante. Since my first! years, I have devoted every hour and} ‘act of life to one ambitious task; and the time of my success is at hand. Im those few countries, where I was @0 Jong content to stay, I collected in- dispensable ingredients; I have forti- fied myself on every side from the po: q@ibiity. of error; what was a dream mow takes the substance of reality; nd when I offered you a son of mine I did so in figure, ‘That son—that hus- and, ‘Asenath, is myself—not as you mow beboid me, but restored to the @ret enetgy of youth. You think me mad? It ts the customary attitude of dgnorance, I will not argue; I will leave facts to speak. When you be- hold me purified, invigorated, renewed, Festamped in the original !mage—when You recognize in me (what I shall be) the first perfect expression of the pow- @s of mankind—I shall be able to laugh with a better grace at your pas: img and natural incredulity, To what can you aspire—fame, riches, power, ‘the charm of youth, the dear-bought wisdom. of age—that I shall not be ghie to afford you in perfection? Do mot deceive yourself. I already excel you tn every human gift but one; when that gift also has been restored to me you will recognize your master. I flung myself before him on my knees, and with floods of tears vesought him to release me from this engage- ment, assuring him that my cowardice was abject, and that in every point of Antetlect and character I was his hope- 1 and derisible inferior. y, certainly,” he replied, “I know wou better than yourself, and I am well Aga acquainted with human nature to understand this scene, It 1s addressed to me,"’ he added with a emile, “in my eharacter of the still untransformed. But do not alarm yourself about the hot you only, Asenath, but every woman the face of the earth become my willing slave." _ Thereupon he obliged me to rise and eat; sat down with me to table; helped ‘and enti future. Let me but attain my end, and] thrown, the impurity thanrto the nature of the ingredients; and as all are now of an equal and exquisite nicety, I have little fear for the result. In a week then from to-~lay, my dear Asenath, this period of trial will be ended.” And ‘he smiled upon me In a manner unusually paternal. My mind was instantly made up. The doctor's presence in London wag justi- fied by the affairs of the Mormon pol- ity. Often tn our conversation he would gloat over ¢he details of that great or- ganization, which he feared even while yet he wielded it, and would remind me that even in the’ humming labyrinth of London we were still sible to that unsleeping eye in Utah, His visitors, indeed, who were of every sort, from jAhe missionary to the Destroying Angel and@ seomed to belong to every rank of life, had up to that moment filled me with unmixed repulsion and alarm. 1 knew that if my secret were to reach the ear of any’ leader my fate were sealed beyond redemption; and yet in my. present pass of horror and despair it was to those very men that I turned for help. I waylaid upon the stair one of the Mormon misstonaries, a man of & low class, but not inaccessible to pit; told him TI scarce rememberet! whut giaborate Cable to explain my applica~ fon, and by his intermediacy entered Into correspondence with my father's ‘amily. They recognized my claim for help, and on this very day I was co I exin my escape.

Indeed, now that. I Was conscious of some ‘protection for myself, my sympathies had turned more directly to the doctor's side; I caught myself even praying for his success; and when some hours ago a law. pec Har cry reached my ears from the lab- oratory, I could no longer control my impatience, but mounted the stains and opened the coor. ‘The doctor was standing in the mid- die of the room; in hie hard a larg round-bellied, crystal flask, some three: parte full of a bright amber-colored liquid; on his face a rapture of gratt- tude and joy tunspeakabic.
