Her pitying sisters pro- cured her mourning, and their own,from the same celebrated artists who had ex- eauted'the wedding order. The fabrics were of the richest. Severe and elegant 'simplicity in woe is expensive, but, what of that! Was this a time to haggle over the price of needful garments to do honor to the memory of a noble -hearted bene- factor? Thursday morning saw- the whole family arrayed in their sables ready to set out on their mournful journey. A coach from the nearest johmaster's, the driver being in decent black so as to be in har- mony with the melancholy oCesiasioie, pulled up at the door. The four black - robed young figures, with Colonel Madi- son, took their placesin it, Barbara sit- ting bodkin—her eyes bright with ex- citement—for even a funeral was something to her, as she had but few distractions. They arrived punctual to the minute at the cemetery, and waited for the funeral cortege to- appear. Time went on, but it did not come. One hour, two hours, passed in anxious expectation and still the funeral lagged strangely on the road. Colonel Madison interviewed the officials. No notice of Mr. White's intended interment had been given. Other groups of black robed figures came weeping, buried their dead, and went away, and still the Colonel and his daughters lingered, unwilling to be ac- cused hereafter of any lack of respect. A cold, cutting Northeaster whirled mockingly amongst the headstones, seeming to deride and insult the mourn- ers with its bitter cheerlessness. At length it became apparent to every one that some inexcusable mistake had been made, and the uselessness of further waiting was obvious. Colonel Madison slowly withdrew his little cohort from the field, anathematizing the wind, the officious friend of the deceased, and every available subject for displeasure. Be went that evening to Kensington to see the lady at whose house his daughter had first met her betrothed, but only to find the house was to let, and that no trace of Mrs. Bigley was to be found. Nothing, therefore, was to be ascertained from that quarter. He was at a loss to know where else to ap- ply for information'and so waited pa- tiently with the hope that the post would bring him some explanation. But no such explanation carne. Puz- zled and furious, the Colonel telegraph- ed to the hotel in Paris for Particulars of Mr. White's death, and the disposal of his remains. An answer came back that no such person, nor anyone an- swering to the description, had visit- ed the hotel, and the proprietor indig- nantly denied that anyone had died sud- denly under his roof. It then began to dawn upon the unfortuately family that they had been made the victims of an in- famous and cruel hoax. The Dowager Lady Dumbledon, filled with pity for the poor girl thus heart- lessly made a fool of, carried her off to Brighton, charitably trusting that change of scene might assuage the acute- ness of those agonies of shame and mortification that the deceived and de- serted young creature must be experi- encing. The little circle wherein the Matdi- sons moved- and had their being was shaken to its foundations with indigna- tion at the heartless cruelbo of which poor Madge had been the victim. The tale of her woes leaked out in Brighton, and awoke a perfect furore of sympathy. Her behavior was pronounced as perfect —she was so quiet, so dignified, so pa- tient wider her unmerited sufferings. • Who Carries His Business On? Men don't believein a Devil now, as their fathers used to do ; They've forced the door of the broadest ereed to let his Majesty throtigh ; There isn't a print of his cloven foot, or a fiery dart from his bow, To be found in earth or Jr to -day, for the world has voted so. But who is mixing the fatal draught that palate heart and brain, And loads the earth of each passing year with ten hundred thousaad skin? Who blights the bloom Of the land to -day with the fiery breath of hell, If the Devil isn't and never was? Won't some- body rise and tell? Who dogs the steps of the toiling saint, and digs the pits for his feet? Who sows the tares in the field of Time where - ever God sows his wheat? The Devil is voted not to be, and of course the thing is _true ; But who icloing the kind of work the Devil alone should do? We are told he sloes not go about as a roaring • , lion now; But whom shall we hold responsible for the ever- lasting row To be heard in home, in ohtirch and State, to the • earth's remotestbonrid, If the Devil, by a unanimous vote, is nowhere to be found. Won't somebody step t� the front forthwith and ' make his bow and dhow How the frauds and the crimes of the day pring up—for surely we want to know, , The Devil was fairly voted out, and f course the Devil is gone ; ; But simple people would like to know wlio c ries his business on.

After a few weeks, it was semi -officially given out that Sir Reginald Dacre, a young man of family and fortune and ir- reproachable charaeter, had successfully sought Miss Madison's hand, though no formal engagement was to be entered into for the present, so that the poor girl might have time to recover her shatter- ed feelings. Meanwhile, Colonel Madison was re- ceiving a great deal of sympathy, too, He became a feature at his club, and enjoyed a notoriety he could well have dispensed with, as the father of the young lady who had met with -an extra- ordinary and unpleasant adventure. Every one offered him advice in the matter. "Haug it, Colonel, the blackguard ought to be discovered and made to pay for it," cried one of his old friends ener- getically. "Set a detective on his track, man." The Colonel considered his friend's advice, and, after considerable hesita- tion, concluded to act on it. He there- fore went to Scotland Yard, and, on the suggestion of an experienced officer, he decided to take the gorgeous betrothal ring to the jeweler's whose name was in the ease, in order, if possible, to ascer- tain something about the purchaser. Here a shock awaited him. The ring had been ordered by a lady, with in- structions that it should be placed to Colonel Madison's account. "Good heavens, Roder," he stuttered. " You dared to put a ring- like that to my account without any authority of mine I Could you not see that it was a vile, infamous, disgraceful hoax?" Mr. Roder stood high in his calling. He was sorry for the Colonel, and so at once took hack the ring, expressing his regret that he should have fallen into the error complained of, but as soon as Colonel Madison left his shop he went dawn to Scotland Yard and there made a certain communication which he had refrained from volunteering to his agi- tated customer. A few days after this Sir Reginald I/acre's younger brother ran down from London and walked inio his rooms. "Look here, Reggy ; you say you are going to marry Miss Madison,- he said slowly.
