CONTINUED. The dinaer at the A rebel's was delightful. Mr Archer was famous for his cook, and there waq r o bet- ter house -keeper in New York than Mrs Archer, Rush took ITelen out to dinner, A rchie took airs Pt•yoi. the woman with whom Bessie vis- ited the mediums and the Buddhists ,,a—end whom he detested—and Bessie went out on the arwf i O Hera, an Irish artist,i withnsome s talent but more pretensions, who sat at the feet of the Parapo8'and smoked bad cigars. O'Hara seem- ed a clever fellow at first sight, and it took you some time to find out that he was telling you how clever he was, rather than proving it. He affected some eccentricity in dress, combed his black Lair stt•aight for- ward from the middle of his head to his eyebrows, brushed the ends of his moustache out straight from bis thin lip, and, parting his beard from the middle, brushed that up, too, front either side of the part. Iiia eyes Were a pale blue, and the pu- pil expanded and contracted like a cat's as he talked. Altogether, he wa-i an odd look• .ing fellow, and if he had not been so absurdly conceited world have been rather interesting. liis pictures were of the impressionist typo, and although bis portraits could hardly be called likenesses, they were fash- ionable, and O'Hata was quite sought after in society—(fiat is, by the women. The glen could nut Ria rid his affectations and but the women said, "Mr is so clever! You know he i dhist—oats nothing kit vege You could not induce him to meat; it is against his religion ciples," Alm Pryor was in with O'Hara, He was ver of painting ber portrait, an was very fond of sitting to "Such an intellectual man, my she sand to Bessie. •'You bear him read poetry! An writes poetry, too. Pure ration. He says he never m rhyme in his life by trying; b can take up a pen and in a s trance write verses that are s wonderful. I only hope that may see him in a trance some ,when conh•olled by the spi poets'..„ It was Mrs Pryor who introduced O'Hara into the Archer household. Ile knew enough not to have any • of his trances before Mr Archer,but he watched his opportunity to have '-one before Bessie, Mr Archer thought he was a rather clever man. Ile bad heard a good deal about his ;pictures, but bad never seen them, and he took their merit for granted. ' any Archie bet ea than like he liked Irishmanhispic- tures, and he owed Mrs Pryor a .grudge for bringing him to the Archer '1. Rush was so delighted at having Helen by his side that every one at ,the table seemed pleasant to him. Brassie noticed the unusual bright- ness of his manner, and so did Archie, but he attributed it all to Bessie. Rush was in fine spirits, vi; ;and kept the table on a roar by the char near of his wit and his fund of good short stories. "Phe man who confines himself to short. stories is the man for a dinner party; but heaven defend us from the long winded diners out." Such were Mr -.Arche'r's eentimet.ts, and he deter- mined to invite young Hur)stone again, and before long. Notwithstanding depression, the dinnero was or a plea- ant one, From the dinner table j:''they strolled through the conserve- r Ipry, and Helen, who had Rush's ,:arm, stopped in front of a box of forget-me-nots, over whose delicate 'r"n blossoms the moon was spreading silver light., "Letme give you '; -one of these flowers," she said, pick - ..?Ing • a bunch and fastening it in his '� button hole, "You know I am go- ing away, and we are so soon for - "gotten when we are gone." It was r ill that Rush could d° to keep from :•slseieing the hands that were so near ,his face and kissing them with pro- '.'+.testations of the love that was burn. ;,`ing so hotly in his heart. Instead "of that be clasped bis hands behind and answered, with mock seri- ,' ::ousness:— "I need no flower to remind me 'bf you, Miss Knowlton. Your ab- ' Settee will be felt in the very air we ,breathe. The birds will chirp, 'She ''•is goner' from the tree tops, and the ;'tars will write it in the sky at night."

In their back parlor Martin and Rush spent many long hours, the former beguiling the time by telling thrilling.(ptories of his detective work. He bad had some wonder- ful adventures, and he sometimes' named names when he was telling them, names that were well known i° New ' or•k, but about which few people knew that there were any suspicious circumstance. Rush and Alarttn visited "Mad - me Fanny C'ountess d ' e Paris,,, ne day to get a look at her rr,om nil see how the cowuluicating door as •fastened.

Fanny opened her eyes and looked around her. "Did you get the desired in- formation?" she asked- " Yes," replied Rush; "a little lisping child tald us that the watch was a gold watch; that I had been robbed of it, and thst the thief had taken it to a pawnbroker's." "The control' is little Mamie; she always tells these things correctly. If you search the pawnshops you will find your watch." Rush thank- ed her for her information, and the two men retired to their tootu. "Did you ever hear such a pack of lies in your life?'said Rush, as the door closed behind them. "Hush! you will be heard," ans- wered the detective. "Yes, of course, I have, often, from the same class of people.' "And to think that they can get some people to believe in them!" "I am not surprised that they can dupe the lower classes—the poor ignorant creatures that infest this neighborhood; but they succeed in getting a presumably respectable, intelligent lot of patrons.

Mr ed • By eleven o'clock sharp the next air morning Martin the detective ar- ng rived at Rush's lodgings, His ap- er ltearance surprised Rush.

Bucket; instead a tall ill I slim man, with a delicate, foreign he lookii.g face, finely cut features, id pale complexion, curling black hair, well kept beard mustache, and large of eyes with drooping lids—altogether 11 a well dressed, fine looking fellow- Rush could hardly believe that be 1- I was the detective, but soon found t out that he was, and they began at 0 ; once to plan out a course of action. Martin had never seen the alloged murderer of Rose Ettington, but had a careful description of him, knew that his name was Costello, and that be was mixed tip with mediums and free thinkers. This was clue enough for hint. The man who had given him this iwfor- mation had been called out west on business, but wrote that he hoped to return in tirne to take a band in the hunt The Japanese bronze furnished Helen and Rush with a alibied of interesting conversation. She ad- mired the patience and the devotion the Japanese display in accompliab- ing an end, even if that end be only the adjusting of the scales of a bronze serpent. - "I am glad that you admire pati- ence and devotion," said Rush. "And why, pray?' "On general principles—they are such admirable qualities; but they are not always appreciated." While Helen was wondering just how to parry this remark, the ser- vant at the door announced Miss Sanderson, and in a moment Aunt Rebecca was with them. She had come to take Helen home, so the pleasant evening was done. Rush had to go down to The Dawn office, and Archie walked as far as Canal street with hire, and aired his opin- ion of O'Hara. "You needn't tell me that that banged haired Buddhist bas any right in decent society," said Archie. "1 don't believe in bim at all," answered Rush; "and I Abell take pains to inform myself on the sub• ,ject. As a friend of Miss Archer's I believe it to he my duty. I don't like to see a roan whom I suspect on such terms with a young lady whom I admire, and who I believe is as tinstiepicio'ra ;is she is pit i -c and good." Archie listend to these words of his friend with varied emotions.— He shared his sentiments towards O'Hara, but he tnoaght that he de- tected something more than ordinary friendship in his solicitude for Bes- sie; and his manner was a little cool when he said good night to him in • Pitcher's oaatoria. • Rush and the detectives visited all the mediums astrologers and fortune 'tellers in New York in the course of a fortnight. They held conversations with the spirits of de- parted friends, had their horoscopes cast and their fortunes told. The detective palmed himself off as a medium, and exhibited so thorough an aequaintance with the slang of the profession that Rush had a sus- picion he must have practiced its arts some time in his life. One day Martin received a letter from their informant in the west telling them that he bad heard of Costello being at a certain medium's on East Fourth stress, and advising them to watch the place with the greatest vigilance. After this let- ter of iwformation Martin and Rush walked over to East Fourth street, where on the front door post of No.— they found this legend painted in white letters on a black square of tin.
