" And how— nice he is dressed 1" thinks this demoiselle of sixteen, though tor- tures would not have wrung the admis. sion from her. " That is a most be- coming suit—New York, 3 suppose.

"e Lbcking all there is lofty and un- approachable - yes, I see," replies mademoiselle. " Who is she?" " She is Madam Valentine," answers the sister, looking attentively at her ; -" and she wishes very much that ,I should present you." Snowball has Many things at this moment to think of—the name conveys nothing to her mind; but it strikes Rene with a certain unpleasant con- sciousness—surely it is a name he has heard somewhere before! " Wants to know mei" exclaims Snow- ball, with open-eyed surprise. " Now why, I wonder? " Come 1" says Sister.; Ignatia, and leads the way. She still clings' to her captive knight, who now makes a second effort to break his bonds. "Let go, Snowball. The severe old lady in the gorgeous raiment doesn't want me. I will take you home when- ever you want to go.', "Don't be foolith t" is Miss'Trillon's only reply. " The old lady will - not keep me a moment. Distance lends enchantment to the view.' She will be glad to dismiss me in about a second h you. See! I plead --badly, I fear, for I remember that you were pining in Fane - am not used to words of pleading -1 liners here, thelast rose of summer, a plead for your love. Do not give, it all sort of -vestal virgin on Isle Perdrix, to these good friends, to whom I, too, am grateful. Shall I ask in vain ? Look at me, dearest child give mo your hands ; let your heart speak ; say, " I ani looking at my father's mother, who wishes in her old age to make up to his orphan daughter what she denied to him: It is reparation, my child. If you come, it must be willingly, else not at all. I could not take you with me a reluctant captive. Speak, my child ; it is for you to say how it shall be." They are in a crowded room, but to all intents and purposes they axe alone.. No one observes them—if they do, what is there to see ? An elderly lady in an arm -chair, holding the hands of a grace- ful girl in the dress of the Queen of Scots—both faces earnest, one pleading, one drooping, and startled, and pale. " I shall not hurry you," the elder lady goes on. " I know that you aro half stunned, by the surprise and sud- dennosa of this, now. You shall have days—weeks, if you will. You shall consult your friends—this good doctor, this wise Mother Maddelena. I will not tear you from your dear ones; you shall always love them, and visit them; but you must not leave them all your heart. See 1 my Dolores, I am a very rich woman, but that is not to weigh with you. You are to be an heiress, and my'darling: All that wealth can give you shall be yours—the pleasures, the brightness, the fairest things of life. Love, too—the love of those good -peo- ple you possess . already, and there awaits your acceptance all that my heart has to give. How strangely it sounds to me to hear myself plead! 1, who, I think, never pleaded before. ; But you must come, my dear one, 'when I go, and willingly. The life you leave is good you shall go to a better. The friends you quit are kind—you shall still find might rise to` the surface, and there kinder. You shall travel the whole world over, if you choose ; you shall see might be a tragedy. I sm all at home growing up for me expressly, and count- ing the hours until my return. Now all that is at an end, and you are going to start in life on your own hook, and set up, I dare say, for an heiress. I don't wish your long -lost grandmother any harm, Snowball, but if we ever get her on Thee Island, she shall never leave it alive i" - .r. pause. Snowball stands, a youthful picture of pallid woe ; Rene stands nervously twisting the ends of a still innocent and youthful looking moustache, and feeling sore and savage, although his manner of expressing these emotions is ,i'cgage enough. I wish she were at the bottom of Bay Clmalette 1" he bursts forth at . last.

"I must," mournfully. "Wheii does she propose to you 2" • 'Vot until I am ready," she says, "which willbe never if I have my own way. You should have heard her, Rene ; one would think I was a prize— something precious and peerless, to hear her go do 1" " Ah 1" relapsing into cynicisms, "she'll get ;over that. She eloesn't know you, you see. I say, where does she live when at home 2" "I don't know. I never asked. What does it matter ?" despairingly. " It does matter. If it is in New York I could see you.
