Skewton, staggered for :the moment, looked beyond A,lizabeth to the mold. tie. h t s cad like Dna petrified, and star big down at the toy weapon held be- hind her mistress's back. „She never saw it before," he thought; then aloud, "This is child's play, Mrs: St. George. No matter in whose hands that rises)) is - your, hus- band has confessed it to be his," 1 "My husband's?" she ,cried out, as one pierced to the quick with pain, that cannot be." She paused, and cold beads of sweat came out on her white brow, "He could only have seen. it, and picked it up," she spoke halt- ingly, finding words with difficulty as she went on, "after--" she drew a deep breath and stood defiantly erect,. "I shot.Barry Ross with it! Peace, I say! He cams to my room last. eight - he always carried firearms - and 1-I -snatched this from him, and shot hien, the hound, as he deserved!" "How deme he with your' hus'band's pistol?" said Mr. Skeleton, quietly. "Mr. St. George lent it him," said Elizabeth, boldly. "No!" said Jack's voice behind them, "you are telling a lie, Elizabeth,, a lie to save me, But this man. will note be- lieve you. He took the pistol from my possession, in which it had been ever since 1 fired that 'shot, and which your deafness prevented you from hearing," "Am I so deaf?" oried Elizabeth, swiftly, and turning to the detective, "have I not heard every word you said? Does any one in his senses sup- pose that I, who sleep so lightly; could sleep through such a tragedy. as that?" She turned from the man, and fell down on her knees beside her husband, clasping his cold hand and bowing her head down on it, clinging to him for dear love, and with a passion that shook her like a reed. "Jack!" she said, "Jack, you know I did it! I was mad with rage; at seeing him there, and I snatched the pistol from his hand -and I shot him - :and 1 after that I remember nothing- ca nothing," uP et" hat er. a the strange speotaele qt' a husband ,and wife, each circumstantially owning to the. sole comrital of the same orime, had been witnessed, with ,the result that the woman was plainly proven to be lying, while the man's confes8100 was borne out by solid facts, 1 Who shall decide the degree of guilt involved in that truth murder, which has for its object the saving of an, other person's life? Certainly not the man for whom Elizabeth lifted apt her pule face, and lied. as if there were no God above, no judgments of man be- low, to punish her, Jack heard her voice, indeed, all its sweet quality gone and hardened into brass, but dared not look at her. This was not his Elizabeth, his deaf, be- loved, little Elizabeth, with whose name purity and goodness were synonymous terms; this was some un- known Creature, who had leaped to life in a. .single night, and that he knew not how to reckon with or to imagine. So he kept his sunken eyes froim, her as she ranged+ from positive asser- tion to frenzied entreaty, and passion- ate arraignment of the powers who would not hearken to her who scorned her word, ignored her cries, and final- ly swept. her to one side as men, in- tent upon the stern press of a mean's. work, will ever thrust a woman, pow- erless thing at best, for much good or evil, So Jack went to prison, fully com- mitted far trial, and, Elizabeth, raging at her helplessness, went home, with never °a look or a word from Jack, to help her bear her miserable lot. In. those days she. thanked God_ that her few relatives were out of Eng- land, and that' there were none to Dome and croak their dismal tale over her, and abuse her for the disgrace that ad come upon her. name. For the world counted her a vile wo- man, and reckoned her, if not actual - y guilty of the: murder, as the direct use of :it, and, the friends who' stood for her in public were few indeed. Do we not all know of cases in which person may be sol entangled in the i3. of circumstance, so completely he .sport of malicious accident and ill- uck that he is made to appear a guilty ereteb, beyond the possibility of re- biliation?

It weeds a an's friends from his mere acquain- once with startling despatch and ompleteness, and he may live ve to be hankful for the misfortune that so actually winnowed the corn from the haff. He did not stir or speak, only the a coldness of his hand chilled her -how see could she know that he was thinking t of Guinevere in her shame, as she botG_ sd before Arthur, only Guinevere did rot lie -she owned her fault. ; "You are mad," be said at last, "to ca perjure yourself thus. No one will ea Ielieve you, and there is Daffy. He oyes you better than he loves me„ and I n rou have him to consider, as well ass yourself." ! wh lie unlatched his hand, not roughly, , d rut inexorably from her two clinging i f Ines, and, deprived of his support! he sank down, the glory of her hair li ailing over his feet, and hiding her ace. What did his anguished eyes say as bey looked down upon her? Does not t he godhead in the man forgive, while 'eff he man himself in flesh and blood re- i o olts at the thing that has .shamed and etrayed him? Suddenly he turned and went out. Rose stood looking down on the oung figure that stirred no more than Thus Elizabeth, •a target to the world's scorn, it so much more secret- ly infamous than her most advertised wickedness could ever be, was pro- foundly touched to find that a few men, who knew her life and hers re - sed to believe that she was anything ut what they had always found her. uch' faithfulness' was very sweet to er, and the friends who stood by her en she loved and valued to her life's d, and those who passed her by on he other side earned a sovereign con - rapt that wiped them, out of her memory as if they had never been. nd verily, do we not choose our friend for evil as for good? No( wrong- doing, or seeming of wrong -doing, should have power to loose the bond between us, and we should remember, even as God remembereth, that we are but dust. "We will not be crushed - we will ride it out together,. my heart and a,". said Elizabeth, as in the loneliness of the house she stood erect, making. up her mind what she' should do, now Tack was actually in prison. • And first she packed for him all that he could require - linen, clothes, books, wine - every sort of comfort that could made his quarters less grim, and when these were despatched she wrote a letter to a Bond street. jeweller, and within halls an hour had received a reply in person. The interview with Mr. Ezekiel did not last a quarter of an hour, but when he departed the sapphires, now in safe keeping at the Bank, had changed hands, and Elizabeth's sacred promise to Uncle Jasper was irrevoc- ably broken. But she was some thousands the richer, and able to procure the very first advocate in town for Jack's de- fense. She had already made up her mind who that person should be. If she fail- ed, and despair filled her at the thought, . Jack might as well plead guilty, and he sentenced without the formality of at trial at all, for Mr. Le aaire was probably the only man living who knew how to build urs a de- fence out of nothing at all. There is an expression well known to perfectly appointed women, signi- fying "to dress ,> as .Ott o a•n Lemaire usually constructed his de- fence as he went, gathering material from a witness' deportment, or a chance word or slip, and suggesting so mush' that his victim never ' v ini:e -, nd ed, that often, when he began with no material at' all, he acquired a great deal before the end was reached, lie might almost be said to possess the gift of divination when cross-ex- amining the opposing witnesses, and even when he lost as sometimes. hap paned, lost with a verve and dash that made his failure show uncommonly like auccess,, immediately after her ,interview with Mr, Ezekiel she • drove into the city to see Mr,: Latreille reputed 'to be the sharpest .solicitor in London, in criminal cases, and to him she entrust- ed her husband's defence, handing hire a check for LI.,000 and telling him to 8 fi ' f.tl' i' a n0 expense, He was as fortunate 3 , tc as to retain Mr. Lomaire,"and' subsequently employedy days in seeingwith' asiftinga Ess,s, awl.. clerics, and malting inquiries.

But with a gesture of passion Eliza -A eth thrust her away grown strong with the anger that filled her breast. "You winked woman!" she said, Would you hang your master?" Rose got on to her feet, "Madam," she said, very quietly, master has confessed, and that man vidently found the pistol in his pos- ession. My testimony cannot pos- bly affect him one way or the ther." He is innocent, I tell you," said lizabeth, stubbornly, stupidly, like child who in sheer recklessnesss ersists in a palpable untruth, "He new nothing of what went on down fairs last night -nothing until he as roused this morning." Rose looked straight before her, her ee divested of every particle of ex Tession. Is it not so?" cried Elizabeth, seiz- g the woman's arm, and shaking it.

A' figure slim' as a school -girl's, and the bluest, saddest eyes he had ever seem, greeted him; butt perhaps what afterward astonished him most was, that having forgotten her deafness ands addressed her in his usual voice, she responded to every word he said. "Your ;husband means to plead guilty." Phe said, when they were seat- ed opposite eactt other, "and if he does there is nothing more to be done." "If he pleads guilty, you will say that he is insane," she said boldly, "and it is the truth, he was insane when) he accused himself to save me." Mr. Latreille looked at her with eyes. that seemed to read her very soul. "There must be truth between us," ha said, "or I can do nothing. You did not kill Mr,' Ross, and your husband did." Elizabeth's face hardened. "It is for you to prove' that he did " not, she said. "Tell me," he said, changing his tone suddenly, "what servants had you at the. time ?" "Rose, the woman who opened the door to you, and two other women, both ignorant and stupid, who rushed out of the house the day after the murder." "This woman Rose," he dropped his voice, "she has been with you some years?" .'Several.'' "Sita bas ycuur confidence?" Elizabeth, was silent "You ;are angry 'with her on account at the evidence she gave at the in- quiry before the magistrate?" Elizabeth's eyea flashed. "Yes." "But she gave it reluctantly, You would not have had her perjure her- self ?" Yes- yr him." Mr,. Latreille looked at her keenly. Fierce as a tigress in defending her lord, he thought but if so fond of him, why Mr. Roes? "Yet you have not turned her away?" he said. "No, that would be unjust," said Elizabeth, coldly. "'No doubt she felt it hes^ duty t ate11 y what she dreamt, suppasing it to have really happen- ed. She has been an excellent servant hitherto, and devoted to our interests." L "Anda knowing that you are angry with hes`," said Mr. Latreille, slowly, "she. yet elects to stay. That tells in her favor." "Yes," said Elizabeth, 'she must surely; have some sort of affection or pity for me, or why should she remain? N�o1 respectable servant can be induce ed to come here, and it is with dif- ficulty thalt I have obtained a char- woman s "She h has same other h r reason for stay- ing," said Mr. Latreille to himself ; a reason that is close by, or I'm much mistaken." aloud• he said: "You confide in her ?" "No," said Elizabeth, boldly. "But that letter," said Mr. Latreille disliking his task very much, "why did she destroy the letter you. wrote to Mr. Ross overnight ?" Elizabeth's face grew haggard as he Lacked` at it. "Did she 'destroy it ?" she said. 'I saw her burns something, but did not. know- what. Why should she burn the one I wrote to 7kLr. Ross ? It was only a tenv lines aboult a business mat- ter." She stopped abruptly,- and her color. rose, "I did not ask him to come down that night," . she said proudly, "but! he - came." Mr. Latreille moved irritably. "Could she -for of course you are aware she will be brought forward as a witness against your husband -be- tray anything that would have a bear- ing on the case?" Over Elizabeth's blue eyes a veil seemed! to be insensibly drawn: "If she were malieieualy disposed, yes," she said, as calmly as if it were al more natural thing to own to guilt than 'to innocence. "You are very magnanimous," said Mr. Latreille starting up; "take care you are not taken advantage of. If you are wise". he dropped his voice to a whisper„ "you,, will take advantage of 'her presence here to find, out from her all you can as to her friends - and her lover. Of course she has one?" "She is very reserved," said Eliza- beth, wearily, "but. I believe she oc- casionally! walks out with some man." "French?" "I imagine so." "She usually mixes your night draught ?" said Mr. Latreille, careles- sly, but his eye was keener than ever. "Sometimes." "She mixed one for' you ;that night?" "No," said Elizabeth, looking Sur- prised. "I mixed it myself." "Rump!" said Mr. Latreille again, "and you slept unusually sound ?" "I--" Elizabeth stopped abruptly and Mr, Latreille muttered "almost caught." under his breath. "I do rot •find you deaf at all," he said; suddenly, "and judging by events of that night I expected, pardon me, to find you almost stone deaf " She looked up.

Horror and Don't Care for Oysters. Great quantities of crabs and lob- sters are annually, oanned in Russia, yet oysters are in little favor, and frogs' legs are) regarded with horror. A woman: who sold great quanties of crabs, upon being asked for some frogs' legs, replied that she "would not touch one of the horrid things for a ruble." Wherever there is water in Russia the frogs abound in ,such quantities that ane isresninclled of the noblemen of other days who used to send their slaves out to beat the marshes, so thht they could, sleep.
