ed, but the arrest and the charge hay-
ing; been Made public, it was deemed,
by the duke and hie friends, essential
to the fair fame of the young duchess,
that she ehould be vindicated by an
open trial, but not at the Old Bailey.
For, though her legal right to the
title of the Duchess of Beresleigh, and.
the honors and immunities belonging
to the rank, was now questioned, yet,
as the Baroness Etheraige of° Swin-
burne, she had the right to claim a.
bearing before the bigheat tribunal in.
the realm.
It was therefore bY the advice of her
friends, and 'the express desire ot her
husband, •Untfille exercieed 'her right
of peerage, dernaudeil a trial by the
Ifouee of Zords, and, remained quietly
in-Lonclon. to await the issue,
e The trig was arranged.lo be. com-
menced on the fourteenth of the eu-
suing May.
Meanwhile the enviers, haters and
maligners of the beautiful young
ductless were busy with her -name ond
fame, Her es anteeedents were
brought up, with many ex-aggera.
tions, distortions and inventions. The
particulars of the alleged -first mar-
riage were not known, but what was
missing in tact was supplied by fancy.

and in order to set the seal et truth
upon -tile packet of falsehood, they

Beresteigh and the Ladies Wardour
had abandened the young duchess, a
circumstance, they argued, that looked
very black for thedatter... •
'The duke and duchess 'were sitting
together in the drawing -room late in
the evening, discussing this new cal-
umny, when the doorbell rang.
"Wbo can it be at this time of the
.night? It is an odd hour for visitors to
call," said the duke, impatiently.
Rose, frightened at the very Idea of
visitors, listened line a startled fawn.
Then followed the opening of the
hall door, and a little bustle of arrival,
and in another minute the drawing -
room door was thrown open, -and a
