This was said with something of « studied man. ner, not with the tone in whiich her heart woulc heve spoken. The very word cousin was brought in intentionally, to show, as it were, that affection fn which she felt that ber canner wae deficient There was s painful embarrassment pervading af ber feelings, Her knees tembled, and she sank into e chair near which she stood, now almost re. gretting that ahehed come tothe prison, In truth all th Laing dna with which she would have met her coumn hed been checked by his altered and unis. miller rance. Though prepared to pour out all her griefathis misfortunes. ~al! her hopes thet the innocence which she persisted in asiributing to him shou!d be made man'test—el! her gratitude for the sacrifice which his devotion to ber interests had induced—in s minute her words and feelings had a!l received a chill. 8 © found herself sudden. ly in the presence of one who seemed to her in ev erything « stranger. Grylls was far from understanding the diatnrbed expression of her countenance—ber averted looks end formal words He could think bust ane reason for the cold and estranged manner: it was, that she felt horror on finding herself sssosiated with ove convicted of murder—an imprisovest felon, Time tiately on bis appehension, it ‘nad been the first thought of Grylis to send to hie tailor as Portemouth, and direct him to send him immed) ately the lothesand uniform befittivmy his rank ae a naval officer, The governor of the gaol had off. ered no opposition to this; indeed, both in the chief, as well a6 in the inferior officials of « prison, there is a sort of vanity experienoe tn the rank of their capt ves; andthe turnkey felt se much im portance in locking up the wretohed Gryliain bis gold epauletios, as might have swelled the bosom of some warden who bad wate ped over thedurance of royalty The governor's ‘npressicm on the adoption by Grylls of bie naval nnifon, was, that he «xpecte. to excite by is that inter oat, which the affection professed by all classes jor everything conuected with the British ‘eum hikely to awaken, and thue by it procure favo ar in she trial for life whicb he woukl eon havet» undergo. But Grylls bad assured the woveruor that be no further motive in thus assuming the badge of b's profession, than hie wish of procie’ ning tw bis brother officers that he considered be had vot disgrace! is, All this was now told in.» jow tone to Mr. Vrse, who bed shown surprise atthis open maz ifes.ation of his rank and ider.tity, Grylls adding, with a ghastly amile, “Not only do I beheve that my conduct in this unhapyvy affair, as seou by the world, would be excused, bus I wil confess to Mr. Vyee thas oad T not learned the lessons taught by your blessed son, my conduct in she same position would now have been exactly the same, There are injuries which in the mind of honourable men can be wip- od out but by bicod: it was uncer that belief a fow mourier was commited, Cheated, betrayed, mad- dened, [took that vengeance which, inflicied on the right person, and in an ope. field, none would blamed me for taking, even bad I, again and again, claimed the deadly satisfaction,"* Grvils then, as Lriefly as be could, detailed, ina low voice, the whole circumstances whi b had led bim, under the impresmon that it wasto him he owed the loss of bis wife's bonour and affections, to take the life of Colonel Valmore. He then add- od—moved as it were to agony, even by the rapid narration of outlines—"* But it was not cowardice, Mr. Vyse, that kept me from standing face to face in fair combat with an open foe; it was freusy—is wasfury which setme on, Ana I would e died » hundred cestha to have tasted that one moinute's revenge. Hel! gaped at the moment—the devils sought toeir prey !—But this 'eall past: tt is Wrong even t© pro ane your ears with allusions to the horrible event for which I am now @ prison- er.” With an effort he seeme! to gu'p down the fearful recollections, and seeing the drooping atti- tude of Olive, be sad, turning towards her, ** Miss Graut bas overtasked her bravery in ventunng thus to slow kindness to an asssesin. [tis wo horrible for her sweet nature Ww fiod cousin lus feion—-s convicted criminal.” bore was « ecoffing | itierness to his manner, which seemed assumed, tolide, as it were, the tenderer and more subdued feelings of his heart. Oh, no, mo, Matthew |" Olive exclaimed anx- jously ; *' isis not that: [ bave thoughs of all thes before. [tis horrible—it is euough to break one's heart, but it # vot that which has overcome mea It is because you seem to me likes stranger: 1 do notknow your jooke—I forges you are my dear cousin.'* Something like abeam of joy passed over the haggard face of the prisoner; and approaching nearer, be said softly, but with strong and tender emphasis, “Ob, Olive! do you indeed eal) me cousin? Bless you!—bless you! This happy moment pays me much that I have suffered. Olive, there has always been ® joyous thoug!t present to me: itis I whohavesaved you. My imprisonment —my disgrace are nothing when! think itis for your sake, eweot Olive, that all this is come upon . me.’ Olive took the hand he held towards her ; still, she could not speak; her beart was too full: an she felt that bad ahe made the effurt, she should have burst into uncontrollable cry'ng. Tears stood in the eyes of the unfuriunate map also, and there was mournful silence for some few minutes. Mr, Vyse had withdrawn to a corner of the con- fined spariment, anu, seated on the miserable bed- stead placed there, forbore \o oiler any interruption to the sorrow of the cousing, Ceeply ashe com- spoke: “Do you think that it was wrong in me so long to deceive ou, Olive? Lofien wished to tell you all, bus fearoi that it might be the meana of quite se, ara- ting us. I knew that] wase doomed wretch whom all must shrink from ;and when I sew the dreadful effect it hadon Vincent, I was glad thatl had kept my secret frow you ; and it was he, Olive, who made me atill deceive you. But be did it for the best and and highes motives, poor boy. No one ever «id, or suffered for another more than he has done for me;and he used to make much happy plans forme. He thought that I might escape to America ; and that, when all was settled and Ten ready to embark, I shoud see you and Mr, G and tell you my story, Aud then he e me bopes thas some day, when all was forgotten and [ sbould be changed by age, that I might return to England, But, Olive, I had not the ver ve-—not the ereugth for a!l this, I knew life could not Le jo: for me; and My hope was that you migtt be wi me wheu I died," A shudder passe! over Grylls as he uttered these last words, Olive, with a quick feeling, knew to what bis thought turned, anu gaid earnest) “You must nottak of dying, Matthew, Al) will yet Ce well ; uy fasber will do ali in bis power that merey aud justice may Le ahown you He has told me that he has great interest wish one of the king's ministers, whom he obligelin tormer days; he wiil be your friend, aud you will svoa get well, Matthew.” As ove would let a child talk of bappy imposes. bilities, 80 did Grylls suffer Olive to w disper these and similar flavering hopes, wud @ fond aud plows. ed expression sole over bis bandsowe teacu es, Ohve recoguized the looks ouct loved cou. wu; OU, pulling both ber bends ini his, sue waid,— "Ob, now! do see Matthew Grylls of the old days; pow youare reaily my cousin, I¢so ub must Lear) OU wont poor Ove lor being Ouceiied, and for the Lousense 0. always tryin 10 be a woe nun.” Aut the two oubs peope lors imonent smiled ab he recollu no +O 408 Geppy pases tut a coid cb li calue over Wer Learts as te Wretched truth of ihe Uisavirous p eseni, With ali ite borrors, again intruded jisel. “Ov, we muss not talk of these things nuw,'* Gryiia ewid, who Was the firs to recover firmuese; “1 bave much to speak t you sboul, [yas on the poinso writing to ou this ver, day, dheu y you call Lord Absibegb—ebe noe yO ave acdepe bed ag your Lusvand, ie iuevery way unwort.y of you; bu’ al AP WhOIG .eppiiess is Leut oD i! i MArMage, tel: Hie By BWC cm, wu Twill keep we faial wush dens 04 itebell ais wits me mover than thet your poor beers slloula be woubled.” (We be Continued.)
