"I believe that is all I have to Say
now, Fitz. And it met be nearly time
for us to be off," . •
"Very nearly. The earriage was or-.
dered at half -past eleven to take us to
the station, and it wants but five min-
utes to that time," said Fitz -John.
And even as lte spone a 'servant
came in and announced. the carriage.'
Both gentlemen arose, took their
hats and went out as upon an ordin-
ary journey.
They reached the London Bridge
station in time to caeca the train for
Brighton. This. train was the last for
the night, and it stopped at Sydenham.
It was the train by which CaAtain
Faulkner usually returned home, after
spending the evening out. He thought
of that now, as he went up to the tick-
et office' and took tionets for hinmelt
and kis friend. He thought of it as he
passed Colonel Brierly and his second,
who Were standing on the platform,
waiting for a guard to give them a
first-elens carriage,
By the judicious administration of
half a crown to the guard, Captain
Faulkner secured a coupe for bienself
and frien.d.
They had reereely got seated when
ale train started.
Captain Faulkner felt as if he were
going home, ea usual, to his wife and
children. He could scarcely realize
that he was going to fight a duel.
Very noon the train ran down to
iydenham, which was the first sta-
tion, blew the signal, and stopped.
Captain Faulkner arose, as if to get
out. as usual; then, recollecting him-
self, he sank back in his seat with a
groan, Then a sudden impulse eeined
him to jump front the coupe to the
platform, and hurry. horrie through the
fields and lanes, now rich in autumn's
beauty, home to his cozy cottage and
lovely -wife and little children, and to
leave Colonel Brierly to go to the Dev-
il's Dyke, or to the devil himself,
alone.
But the train started, and his tate
was sealed.
In due time it ran in to the leright-
on station, where a few cabs were still
waiting to take late travelers to their
destinations.
Captain Faulknor and Fitz -John
kook eab between them to the Ship
notel, where they were followed by
COlonel Briegly, his second, and the
surgeon, in another cab.
The whole party ordered rooms, and
soon retired,
Cauptain Faulkner and Fitz -John
took a double -bedded room between
them, and then feed a waiter to bring
them, coffee at 5 in the .morning, and
aleo to order a cab for that Iltnia.
These arrangements having been
ma:de, Mr. Fitz -John would have per-
snaded his principal to lie down; but
the captaiu. said that be wished to
write itnother letter, and begged that
his second would lie down, and leave
him to himself.
leitz-John then threw off hie coat
end laid down on the outside of his
bed, meaning to 'watch with his princi-
pal. But fatigue soon overcame him,
and ho slept soundly.
Captain Faulkner sat dawn to write
Ids seeond letter. This was to Mr.
Melliss, New that he was so near an
event that might terminate his earth,
ly existence, "poor Marley" was forah
ett into a stricter stlf-examination
than he had ever instituted before,
For the first time he felt remorse foa
having first "stolen the old man's
daughter," and then brought her and
her children to such mtnery.
He wrote Mr. afelliss as he felteas
a dying man; telling him that hin
present crisie,whert all the serioueness
of lip and death weighed upon his
epirit, he telt, for the first time, the
enormity of his sin, and would, it pog-
Otte, atone for it. lie begged the be=
reeved •an.d outraged father to forgive
hint, and to forgive his wife, tite er-
ring deughter. He mid he did not ask'
that father to erotect his wetowed
daughter and her orphan children, be-
eause he .knew that father would do
sa Ahd be elided, as he had begun, by
entreating forgivenees.
Ito folded, :fettled tod direeted hie
letter, and laid it aside to give to
Fitzeiohn in the morning.
Then he threw inniself on the bed,
not expeeting to sleep. Yet sleep
overtook him. Mid he slept until he
was aroused by tae knoticing at his
door.
He and Ms friend sprang up at the
gairie Mt:Anent.
Fitzehohn opened the door, ited
Coated the waiter.
"If yint please, Sir ,it is 5 o'clock.
Here is the coffee, and the -tab ie
elid the waiter,
"All right. Brien the tray In and
put it oit the table, and let tho eab
'wait," Said Fitz -john,
"Yen, stir. Any farther orders'?"
"No. I'll ring if I want anything."
The waiter touched his forehead and
went out,

be chemeelly st t- the exaMple ot mak-
ing a hasty toilet.
-Yee, 10 hen we return!' sighed
Captain Faulkner.
Then he took the second letter Vent
the table and We it to Pits -John,
;ming:

"I will, But come, now, none of

eaid Fitz -Raul, oneouragiagIy,
They sat down to the little tahle
and drank two or three cups of craw
eaelt,
Then they took their hats and went
dowo and got Into their Cab, and
directed the cabman tO drive them to
the Devil's Dyke.
"And not over the down, but by the
beach," seld FitzcJohn. •
"But the tide, sir?" suggested the
cabman,
"Oin it is ebbtide new. It will be
low tide by the time we get there. And
we ,shall return before the tide tUrnS.

The cabnaan touched his hat and
went on.
strenge, weird dtive of death was
that through the gray of the exturan
morning, along the sands of the sea-•
shore; on one side the beetling rocas,
on the other the rotting sea. And a
loag ride it seemed, considering the
distance; but at length titbit neared
the open
Fitz -john ordered the cabman to
stop. And he and Faulkner alighted,
taking their pietol-case with them.
leitz-john directed tae cabman to
watt there. And then he drew the arm
of his principal within Ms own, and
they both walked on toward the fleet-
ing ground,
They reached the foot of that yawn-
ing chasm known as the Devil's Dyke,
and found themselves alone there.
"The other party has not come up,"
said Faulkner.
"No, I am glad of it. I ten glad
that we are the first upon the ground,"
said Fitz -John.
But even as he spoke they discov-
ered three persons approaching front
an opposite direction, and when they
soon recognized as Colonel Brierly; his
second, Mr. Aiken, and the surgeon.
They lifted their hats as they an-
proaehed, a.nd our friends eoarteously
acknowledged -the greeting.
The seconds -Mr. Fitz -John on the
part of Captain Faulkner, and Mr,
Aiken on that of Colonel Beierly-Wra-
ceeded to step off the ground and place
their prin,cipals.
They planted their Men ton feet
apart, standing sideways towards each
other, with their backs to the downs,
their faces toward the sea.
The second then retired.
An instant afterward Aiken gave the
signal.
"One, two, three. Piro!"
At the fatal word botlt antagonists
wheeled around and fired.
Captain Faulkner sprang Into the
air, fell forward upon his fa,e0, and
lay motionless.
ColonePBrierly, who was axilmrt, for-
geteing all the "points of honor," threw
away his ptstol and ran toward his
fallen foe.
But Fitz -John and Aiken luta. reach-
ed the fatiti spot before him.
Pitz -john had raised the head of the
fallen man upon his knee.
"ary friend is dead!" he groaned.
"Fly and, gave yourself, Colonel Brier -

"Brierly, we must fly! There is not
a single instant to lose! The cab still
waits. We must take it and drive like
the very demon if we wish to get to
Newhaven in time to take the boat
to Dieppe!" exelaimed air. Aiken, Col-
onel Brierly's second, speaking in
great excitement.
"By ray soul, I'm very sorry for
this! 18 he dead? Are ydu quite

of the surgeon, who ip as kneeling

"He is quith dead," answered the
surgeon.
"Breerly, mea do no good heee.

"I khow it! By -, I never was
so sorry for anything ift my lite!"
"Sorrow will do no good now. Save
yourself!" said Aiken, taking the dot -
°net's arm nad hurrying him off the
ground.
Then, seeing that young Fitz -John
still lingered, looking upon his fallen
friend, he called to him: .

At length, however, the tWelve neia-

"Law, ma'am! Vabateyer have hap-

"Nothing has happened that I know

"Law, ma'am, he have missed the
train, that's all," ettid the girl, con-

"Yes I suppose that is all. But, oh,
I'm so nervous!"
"That's along ot sitting up so late,

"Yes; probably. At least, I think

And good little Bessy, though it was
no part oh her duty to no so, slipped
out of bed and helped her mistress to

her until she retire4 to rest.
And poor Molly Faulker, ignorant of
tbe trouble in store for her, fell asleep
and for the remainder of the night
slept well.
She slept until very late in the morn-

The young nurse arose at the lined

quietly as she could, that they ralght
not disturb their weary mother.
Mrs. Faulkner continued to sleep
until near noon. Then she woke up,
and, finding how late it was, immedie
ately rang her bell, which was an-
swered by the little nurse.
"What' did you let rue sleep so long
