looked in oaf other's eyet. furtively as

If Skews came amona them at sucli a

edged a chairlup near to his ; ope
chatted tohim cheerily of corn and od-

an angel in hispath ; and dumb animals,
%was said, evnietimes saw sights at
which human eyes coulli, never look.
Why eel the dogs howl all nig,ht longat
Menheniot farm? And eyerybody knew
that Farmer Skews's horse would never
pass the Indy's Bower. He shied at
the glistening pool, and reared up-
right. and nearly threw his rider. The
woodsmen said, that when they wora
cutting down the Bower (for. Sir Hilton
hated the,placie and had it torn down,
and all thn trees round about it felled)
they saw , the /horse pant and glare like
a creature ternfied, when Skews an'd his
new man, that queer shambling fellow
with the red hair, came up together and
looked on, and asked so curiously what
they were cutting down the Dower for.
Thus the country aide talkt of Farm-
er Skews. And it is certain there was
great alteration in the men since ho had

lance to a man who•had something on

I firmly believe that,of the two brothers,

'Well, of course,' she resumed, recover-

Mr. Damerel I cannot ask you to repeat
to Sir Hilton the curious sort of talk
whisk his brother held with me at the
station. I welled have told him myself,
when I met him to -day, but he was in a
hurry, and evidently anxious to ayoid
us.'
Meanwhile, Vivian Damerel was de-
bating in his own mind whether lie
should relate to Mrs. Gunning his strange
r,ncontre with Olive in Ireland at the
Langleyse The sight of ber wondrous
Eastern•beauty, as it flaahed upon him
fur • moment, seemed almost a dream
now, lief if tho character of her tace,and
the passion of those deep dark eyes had
been less singular, he might have felt
tempted to deem himself deceived by a
chance likeness, and the color of his own
thoughts. As it was, hu was sore he
had seen Olive, and reflecting thet the
Lingleys had certainly left home instant-
ly to avoid being questioned, he decided
on not naming her in connection with
them to their friend Mrs. Gunning.
Mr. Chadwick, being rather afraid to
try his chaff on an M. l'., has sat admit
and bored; and now,catehiug his frieud's
eye, be made a frantic telegraph of hum -
self, indicative of a strong desire to re-
treat at once. Vivian waited ouly while
Mrs. Gunning wrote a hasty but kindly
introduction to the Langley.; aad, arm-
ed with this, he was glad to shake hands
and depart.
As Mrs. Gunning justly divined, Sir
Hilton Trewavas hal telegraphed. te the
e gad.saillesally la* at TreAtillinhat
he had traced John to the Lendon
Bridge Station, and ascertained that he
had taken • ticket for Paris, whither he
Intended to follow him instantly. John's
departure from home in secret hut great-
lyelanned his brother.
Sir Hilton's thoughts; were dark and
troubled, as he weld on from train to
boat, and from boat te train twain. The
sum of money sent to him by Olive,.
through the pedlar and restored to her
by the agency of 'Bolster, had again
renhed his hands. It had been paid to
his London bankers by a stranger ; and
There remained no chance, no clue now,
by which he could hope to force it upon
Olive's acceptance. In the pride and
bitterness of her heart, she had stripped
herself of her small fortune in order to
gall him with the gift -he would not
call it payment -and now lie had to en-
dure the sharp pang of knowing her to
be in the fangs of poverty, or perhaps a
depehdivat on Charles Vige's love gifts.
His imagination !tortured him as it pic-
tured Olive in every possible misery
that want, concealment, and her own
guilt could heap upon her., If she would
only have accepted his offer of a bonvent,
he could, comparatively speaking, have
been happy. Bot she had studiouly
avoidei every kindness from him, ap-
parently besting down, with hasty and
passionate hands, all the heaped-up re-
membrances of old affection, all the ten-
der links that long habit and years of
association had bound about them.
Well, there remained nothing to him
now of these- all were severed, anti
thing to the winds ; there were left him
only the dregs of 'his youth, add the
bitternen and jealousy of a passion he
muse denied and now contemned. Yes,
there was one thing still intact, though
