"Well mad arn,"sajrs Wardlaw, am

I skare your anxiety, for I have got atilt,

quire at Lloyd's. Direct her there, Mr.
Penfold, and bring mgemy letters.
With this he ante inner office, .at
down, took out a golden key, opened the
portrait of Helen, gaze.' et it, kissed it,
uttered a deep sigh, and preparenl to face
the troubles of the day.
Penfolil bro t in a leather case like
an enormous ill book ; it had thirty
vertical otunpartmenta, and the names of
various cities and seasporta, with which
Waollaw & Son did business, were printed
in gold letters on some of these compart-
ments, on others, the nouns of persons ;
end on two oomnartmenta the word
"Miscellaneous " Michel brought this
machine in, filled with correspondence,
enough to bre•k • man'a heart to look at.
This was one of the onisequencea of
Wardlaw'. position. He durat not let his
correspondence be read, and filtered, in the
outer ink* ; he opened the whole MIMI ;
sent some back into the outer offioe then
he toucheel ahand-bell, and a roanemerged
front the small apartment adjoning hie own.
This was Mr. Atkin, his shorthand writer.
Ile dietnted to this man some twenty
lettere, that were taken down in shorthand ;
the man retired to copy them, and write
them out in duplicate from his own notes,
and this reduced the number to seven ;
these Wardlaw .at down to write himself,
and lock up the copies.
While he was waiting theen. he received
a visitor or two, whom he despatched as
quickly as his letters.
He was writing hi. last letter, when he
heard in the outer Mike a voice he thought
he knee He got up listened. , It was no.
N all the voices in the city, this was the
one it moat dismayed him to hear, in his
office, at the present crisis.
He listenedem, and satisfied himself that
&fatal blow w•s coming. He then walked
quietly to his table, and mated himself,
and prepared to receive tbe stroke with
external composure.
Penfield ennounced "Mr. ilurteriehaw."
"Show hint 111," sate Wardlaw, quietly.
Mr. Burtenshaw, ono of the mooagers of
M erland'abank, came' in, and Meintlaw mo-
tioned hizn courteously to a chair, while be
finished hie letter, which took only • few
moments.
While he was sailing it, he half turned
to his visitor, and mad, "Nn bed news 1"
Morland's is safe of connie."
"Well," said Iturtenshaw, 'there is a
run upon our bank,- a tievere one. We
could not hope to escape the effects of the
apparent reluctance, added, "I am mines -
panic."
Ho then, after an enemy pailee, end with
ted by the other directors to mature yuu
that it is their protein extremity alone,
that -in short, tie are really compelled to
beg yon to repay the amount advanced to
you by the bank."
Wardlaw showeil no alarm, but great
surprise. This was clever ; for he fah

See, here is his telegram.
At this moment in ran Penfold, to tel
them that the Shannon 'FAA up at Lloyd's,
had anchored off Liverpool hint night.
There wee hearty shaking of hands, and
Arthur WitolLaw was the happiest inan
Lennon, for a little while.
" Got the telegram this morning at Elm
trees, and came up ny the first express'
said Wardlaw senior.
The telegram was from Sir Edward Rol
lemon. " Reached Liverpool lauit night
will be at Easton two fifteen...
" Not a wont fnmi her ! ' mid Arthur.
" 0, there was no time to write ; and
ladies do not use the telegrein." ile
added, slylr, " Perhaps she thought coot -
• m person would de as well, or better,
ch !"
" But why does he teli•graph you in-
stead of me 1"
" I am sure I don't know. What nos
it matter Yes, I de know. It was set-
tled months ago that he and Helen should
come to me at Elm -trees, au I waa the
proper person to telegraph. I'll go and
moot them at the station ; there is plenty
of time. But I say, Arthur, have you
seen the papers f liartley Brothers oblig-
ed to wind up. Maple & Cox, of Liver-
pool, gone ; Atbunie trading. Terry &
Brown, sioperidol, intern-0(mnd credit
gone. Old friends, some of these. Illep-
ley & Timms, railway contrattor., fallen,
sir ; seven hundred thousand
pounds and more."
"Ya., sir," said Arthur, pompriusly ;
1866 will long lie remenibertel for its revel-
ations of commercird rainy."
The old gentleman, on duo naked his
son, with excusible vanity, • whether he
hen done ill in steering clime of specula-
tion ; he then connratulateil him on hav-
ing listened to good advice, and stack to
legitimate business'. " I must say, An
thur," added he, •• your books are models
for any trading firm."
Arthur winced in 'secret, under this
praise, for, it nocurred to him that in a
few days hue father would dieconer these
hooks were all a sham and the amounts
fabrication.
Howeyer, the unpleasant topic was
soon interrupted, and effectually, ;
for Michael looked in with an nir of satis-
faction on his benevolent nuitenance, and
said, "Gentlemen, such an arrival ' Here
is Miss !Lee's sweetheart, that she dream-
ed was drowned."
O What is the man tn me I" said Arthur,
peevishly. He dui tun recognize Wylie
untler that title.
" Le, Mr. Arthur ! why he is the mate
of the Proacrpme," said Penfold.
•" What ! Wylie ! Joseph Wylie j' cried
Arthur, in • sudden excitement that con-
trasted strangely with his previous indif-
ference.
" What is that 1" cried Wardlaw senior;
"
mho l'roserpine, show him in at once."
Now this caused Arthur Warillaw con-
siderable anxiety ; for obvious reasons he
did net want his father and this artier to
exchange a word together. However,
'mid old Waollew, laughing, and took up risked his life, and wreeked his soul, to do Inman

, there. Michael had caught hizemployer's
anxious look, and ounveyod the Banker
into the small room, where the shorthand
writer was at work. But Iturtenshaw was
one of a struggling firm ; hint every
minute wa.. an hour ; he had sat, fuming
with impatience, so long ma he heard tali-
- ing in the inner office end, the moment
it ceased, he took the liberty of coming in;
so that he opened the aide door, just as
•Werdlaw senior was naming through the
centre door.
Instantly Wardle, junior whipped be-
fore him, to hide his figure from hia re-
treating father.
Wylie -who all this time hotel been sit-
ting silent, looking from one to the other,
antl quietly puzzling out the game, um
well as he ceuld-oliserved thia movement,
anil grinned.
An' for A rthur Wardlaw, he saw his father,
Rafe ...it, then give a sigh of relief, and
walked to his othee table andaat down, and
began to fill in the check.
Burtenshaw drew near, militant, " I am
instructeil to. say that tifty theusand
pounds on account will be accepted."
Perhaps if this promaal had been made
a few aeonnile sooner, the ingenious Arthur
would have availed himself of it : but, a.
it wan he prwforred to take the high and
mighty tone. ' I decline saty conceeision,"
said he. "Mr. Tenfold, take thin check
to the Bank of Englaod. 1.111,114/ 10.. ;
that the amonnt, capital and interest, np

Burtenshaw, taking hia receipt, or, if he
prefers it pay it acmes counter, tinny
credit. That will perluow arrest the
ran."
Burt...mohair atommeren out his thanks.
Warellaw cut him short. " Goon morn-
ing; sir," "1 have Mientem of impertanoe.
Gerd stay,' and hewed him out.
" This is • lughtlyer." thought Burton -
thew.
Marilee then opened the aide door,
ann caned him short hand writer.
