XXX. neemscet vetare COMUON' SENSE, "Why does isteareine eot come to town .7" says NIrs. Douglas, impetietetly, to Lady Etwynae. " She must be moped to death m that dreary Nerthumbertand Owe. It gives in the horrors even to think ot tt." It is e, eel(' atteraoon in Fele:eery, Mid it is Letly letwymle's " day,' but the aesthetes are deserting her now. Her inter. riage is fixed for the enJ. of the mantle. It is to, be very quiet, and Laurette° has written to say she menet come to it; her health is so delicate, that all excitement and fatigue are forbidden. Bat the real truth is, thet Sir Erato's has developed a new system of tyranny, framed in by every species of insultieg suspicion, and has ordered Laaraine to remain at Falcon's cheee,and declared she shall no; even go up to London for the season. it is chilaieh, it Is cowardly, audit is unreasonable, and he knows it is all those; but lie is infuriated with her, and. savage at the failure of his schemes, and this is the only sere of revenge that he can think of at present. He him• seif is in Paris, with all the gaieties and amuseineMe of the SeaSell awaiting eis selection, bat teraing inwardly and fiercely at Lady Jean's strange conduet, and coal - pieta avoidance of himeelf. Of mum she goes nowhere-11er deep mourning compels retirement -but she has a email tnrele at trientls who come to her a.fternoteis in her prettyrooms in the Rue Vampire, and Sir Francis knowe thie, anl knows thet he is always excludea aud the fact inake3 lain more unteble'more bitter against his wife, and more inmetient of seeing his mietress than he has ever been aince they parted at the Chase. How long am I to wait 7" he wonders, impatiently. "What can be her mean- ing ?" As yet neither of these questioniaseemed deatined to be answered. " I know there is something," persiots Mrs, Douglas, drawing near the fire in the pretty artistic drawing -room, anti dropping her voice confidentially. "It looks so odd, and Sir Francis is never with her now. Do tell me, Lady Etwynde, was there anything -anything wrong -when you were down there at Christmas ?" "I think Lauraine is most unliepper." says Lady Etwynde, sorrowfully ; "and this* bee marriage eves a great mistake. I often heard you congratulating yourself and -her-on its brilliance, alree Douglas ; but 1 think, 4:ould you see bell:11a the scenes and look into your daughter's breaking heart, you would not feel quite eo proud, or so satisfied respeoting it." alas. Douglas looks at her annoyed and impatient. • If she is unhappy it must be her own fault. She had everything that could make a woman happy, and her husbana was devoted to her. If she has lost his atlactien, it is by her own imptet lence and folly, 1 warned her long ago how it would be!' "Perhaps your weaning canto too late. Most warnings do," says Lati.er Etwynde, coldly. "But a loveless marriage to a girl of Lauraine's disposition and nature was a dangerous experiment. You ought to have let her marry Keith Athelstone:" Mrs. Douglas's eyes flash angrily. "I sup- pose you= in her contulence. Iacted for the best. Keith was always wild and rash, and riot at all a suitable match • and, besides that, she was not in love with hina-or, at least, never told me ao. She was quite con- tent to marry $ir Francis." "She could have known nothing of his reputation, then," answers Lady Etwynde. "He was always a bed, fast men ; and he has treated Leuraine abominably," Mrs. Douglas looks at her with inereased curiosity, " What has he done? Is it about -Lady Jean ?" "Yes," answers Lady Etwynde, colour- ing. "Lauraine knows now what the world has long suspected ; and when she would not allow that woman to remain under her roof, Sir Frauds threatened her with pro- ceedings, and dragged in poor Keith Athol - stone s name." "Good Heavens l" exclaims alea. Douglas, "what scandal -what horror ! Oh, surely he is not in earnest? Why, Lauraine is it fool -a perfect fool ! Why did she make a scene about it ? Of course, everyone knows such things happen constantly. Men are never faithful -never 1 But to insult the woman -and for what good 2 To think that a daughter of rnine should have been such an idiot ?" "ft does seem remarkable, doesa't it ?" says Lady Etwynde, dryly. "You see women nowadays generally prefer worldly advantage to their own self-respect." " Selferespece 1 Fiddlesticke, eries NJ rs. Douglas, growing more and more irate. "Will selares.pect give her her present position, or gam the world's belief in her innocence if ehe is once in the Divorce Court ? Self-respect! I hate such rublasb. She had everythingshe wanted; why could she not have been content?" "1 thtresay you would never understand why," answers Lady Etwynde, calmly. "Lauraine is singularly unlike yourself." "Lauraine is a fool -a perfect fool I" cries Mrs. Douglas, furiously. "To get herself into a eorape like this, and all for nothing; to insult a woman of Lady Jean's position, and then to get herself talked about as she's done with that. young idiot Keith, and simply because of some childish folly long ago, when they fancied them- selves in love with each other 1 Why, she must have taken leave of her senses, and all this time she has not said a word to me -her own mother 1" Lady Etwynde is silent. She is thinking it would bare been stranger still if Lauraine had taken her mother into her confidence. " I am sure Sir Francis was always most kind to her," resaines Mrs. Douglas, present- ly. "Always when I have seen them to. gether." "1 believe it is not a rule in good society for husband and wife to quarrel openly,' remarks Lady Btwynde. "She should have been content and sensi- ble like other people, goes on Mrs. Douglas, disregarding the interruption. " Good, gracious, everyone knows auch things go on. You oen't make saints of men. You must. take them as they are. And did she actual- ly make Lady Jean leave the house ?a "She would have been scarcely less guilty. than Lady Jean, • had she condoned her presence, knowing what she knew," says Lady Etwynde, with rising indig- nation. Even if a hesband sloes not love his wife, he at least should treat her with common decency." • "1 daresay Lartraioe brought it all on herself. A mo,n can't always put up with such, airs as thcae to which she treated Sir Francis, and, in contrest with Lady Jean, why Lanraine was -nothing." ' "No," agaees Lady Etwynde. ".d. good woman and puremitcled generally looks colourless and came beside a wicked one. The contrast is too strong I suppose. Mrs. Douglas looks at her sharply. She does not like her tone, nor understand it. • "Well, I only hope it will come right," she says, "1 shell write to Laureime and LL adviSe her to melee it up with her husband. It is so stupid, making a fuss and, e jaw - losing everything, and all for --whet?" "I think," says Lady alewyluie, quietly, " these you do not understand year claugh. ter, and you do her injustice. A women meet ;mow how to sapport her own aignetet ; I suppose you allow that?" "1 deresay Leureine made a great deal of unnecessary fuss; it would be j'ust like her. She is full or romanee and high-flown ideas. If ehe had been unite oircumspect herself it would not, matter; but after get- ting herself talked abont with Keith -1 myself had to warn ber-I think Sir Francis wile very gond to overlook it." "Sir Francis perhaps had his own aims to attain," interpolates Lady Eta-ynde. I am ineliued to think so, judging by re- sults." "Do you mean -do yon reelly think he wishes for freedom ?" almost gasps Mrs. Douglas. "Is it so bad as that?' d'Lady Jean seems to heve infatuated hien," ;weevers Lady Etwynde. "He was always weak where women were concerned, you know. He has treated Larmaine very badly and he is evea elow in Paris." "1 think I will go down to Falcon's Chase," says Mrs. Douglas, presently. "1 meat see Laaraine and advise her. It is really most critical. 1 had no idea thing?. ' were so bad. She has not choeen to take me into her confidence; still, as her ;nether, it is my duty to see she does not ruin her whole future." "I think," says Lady Etwynde, very quietly, "I wonlil not go if I were you." " Why not V' deinands Mrs. Douglas sharply. "Sae might not like it," anewere.Lady Etwynde; "and yeti can do no good -no one Jan. Laura:int, is proud, but she is also highawincipled. I do not think yen need feu tor her. What is right to do she will do, at any cest. Besides, I think the worst is aver now. Sir Francis has not. carried out his threat, anti 1 fauoy he won't. He has ordered Lauraine to remain in North- umberland; but I do not think that is any great punishment to her. She always loved the Chase, and all her memories ot her child are with it." "It is a pity the child died,' says Mrs. Douglas, involuatarily. I " -You may well say that. Ile would at least have been nine conaolation to her now, Not that it would have made any deference . to Sir Francie. He never mered for the bay. Still it was a " Leuraine meet have been in fault," complains Mrs Douglas fretfully-. "It is all nonsense to say she is a martyr -Sir !Ifraziois was no worse than other men. If she had been less cold less odd lie would never have run after other women." "1 do not agree with you," interrupts Lady Etwynde. "Sir Franeie is just what . he always was -a thoroughly aeltish mau, and a men whose habits are ingrained in every bbre of his nature. He has never treated women with any respect, and his passion for Lauraine was as short-lived as any of his other fanoies. Re marriea her because -well you know the real reason ;A well as yeti known the man, and in two years he was tired of her. For a woman, young, beautiful, warin-hearted, ehe has had a most trying life, and a naost erneI ex- perience. Had ill° indeed been what hula dreas of others armsbe might have consoled herself easily enough, but she could not do that, and -she has her reward." 'Mrs. Douglas is silent and uncomfortable. "It, is a. great pity," she says at last. "A great pity. And. one can really do nothing?" "Nothing," tinware Lady Etwynde, "except wait and hope." Then the door opens and Colonel Carlisle enters, and a beautiful flush and light come over her face as she ereets him. Mrs. Douglas looks at her radiant eyes and sees his road and tender glance, and hears the happy ring in their answering voices, and as she goes out and leaves them alone a little uncomfortable feeling rises in her heart. Is there something in love, after tale" she asks herself. What has that woman been saying ?" asks Colonel Carlisle, as the door closes and he seats himself by his betrothed. "You lookei worried when I came in," "She always does worry me 1 think," says Lady Etwynde, nestling me, to his side, as the strong arm draws her towards him. "She is eo worldly, so cold, so heart- less ; and I hate to hear a mother speak of her daughter as she speaks of Laura:no." "They seem totally unlike each other," says the Colonel. "Poor Lauraine! Have you any news of her ?" "1 had a Teeter this morning. She can- not come up for our marriage. Of course, Sir Francis won't let her -that is the real truth. It is a little bit of spite on his part." "What an unfortunate marriage that, was 1" exclaims Colonel Carlisle, involuntar- ily. Ah, my darling, thank God that we shall have love andsympathy ou which to base ours. There is no hell upon earth like a union where there is no love no respect, no single thought or feeling shared in com- mon -where one's nature revolts and one's duty demands submission -where the sac, redness of home is violated every hour until the name becomes a mockery— 'Ile pauses abruptly. Lady Etwynde knows to what his words refer -to where his thoughts have turned. "And that was your fate -once," she sighs softly. "And -I --judged you so herald -yd.!, "You have more than atoned for that," he says, fondly, as he looks down at the bright head upon his breast. "After the waters of sorrow have been drunk again and again, how doubly sweet are those of joy a' "And you are sure you are quite happy?" she whispers. "Happy I I could bless God on my knees every hour I live for giving me -you." A sudden rush of tears dims the brilliant eyes. She trembles for very happiness. Resting there against that faithful heart, knowing herseIt beloved almost to idolatry, herself answering that strong and perfect passim with devotion as strong and perfect as its own, bow can she be otherwise than glad as humem life can seldom count glad- iiess -full of a deep, silent, wordless bliss that steeps her in a trance of exquisite content? , • But even amidst her own joy her heart feels a sudden pang of regret for the friend she loves so dearly. "Poor Lauraine !-what she has missed!" she sighs. - "She hacl not your constancy, my derl. ing 1" murmurs her lover, tenderly. • " To think that for all these years you held me shrined in the proud little heart that I thouaht so cold med unforgiving once 1 How true it love was yours !" "It had need to be true art was sa unfor. giving," she says, smiling up into the deric eyes that search her own. When I think of. those long, veaateceyears---- e " Do not think of them," he interrupts, passionately, "or think of them only to crowd int.° those that are to come, a- double portion of ehe love they haVe missed."

Her position is full of peril and uncer- tainty. She cen no longer float on the smooth watere of Society, for Society i$ shocked and outraged by her husband's mis. deeds, and au ill odour clings to her name. The people she gathers round her now are not at ell the class of people she prefers. Needy foreigners, seeonclerate celebrities ; Englishmen with shady reputations and tarnished title ; Frenen Bohemians who have known and admired her in the 'days of her success -all these congregate together at her little rooms in the Rue Victoire ; awl among them all she looks for some willing tool who will lend himself to her hand and. work out her schemes. But for long she looks in vain. The winter pastes on. The cool, fresh days of eerly Spring are heralded by bursts of eau:thine, by the Leafier budding leafage of the Boulevards, by the scents and hues ot flowers that are piled up in the !gaskets of the rnerket women, and fill the windows of the A'tfrielA with brilliance and beauty once again. And zu the springtime, suddenly and without warning, _Lady. Jean's soh me of veogeance conies to her as a vision of possi- bility at last, for who should, mime to I'aris but Is.ezth Athelstone. He has been wintering in the south of France. He Comes to the gay city with no set purpose or desire. He is alone, and melancholy, and depresssed. Ho thinks he will have fortnighv 101 Paris, and then start for that long projected American tour, and the first peeeou he -sees and grceta in Paris is the Lady Jean. She has never been a favorite of his, and ho is inclined to be curt and avoid. her. But she has other schemes in her head, arid, unlees a man is absolutely discourtootte, it is not easy for him to tale a women who has sot her mind upon deluding him, especi- ally a woman clever and keen as the Lady jegt Li very quiet, very subdued. All the fastness amil wildness seenai to hew evap- orated. She tells him of her bereavement, her troubles. She apeake sympathisingly of his own, and brings in Leuraine's name so gently and gralually that he cannot take alarm at it. ln the end he accepts an laid- tation to her house, and finds everything so subluel, so decorons, in such perfect., gooti taste, that he thinks Lady Jean's widow- hood has produced most salutary effects, In Ms present mood piety and fastness would have jarred upon and diegusted him, As it is, mills tonal down, chastened, ing, and in perfect taste. He comes again and yet again. Latly Jean keeps the foreigners, peel Shady adven- turers, and the Bohemian element carefully out of his sight, and she bonsai treats him with that consideration and deference al- ways flattering to a young man's feelings when displayed by a woman older than himself, and still beautifuland admired. She mentions the Vavasoure casually, Leuramee as being immersed in worldly gaieties, Sir Francis as being abroad, at Monte Carlo. The latter fact is true, he having proceeded there in disgust at lier obstinacy and cold - mess, and yet not liking to break with her entirely, because elm happens to be the only woman of whom he bas never tired. The fortnight passes, and Keith still lin. gers. Life has no speelal object for him at present. The spring has turned cold and bleak and the American tour may await his owe convenience. One evening he comes to Lady Jean by special. invitation. There are a few people there ; there is a little music, and it little "piny," not very high, nor very alarming but Keith refuses it for it reason that no one there guesses. Play had been a passion with him once. Its dangerous excitement bad lured him into the most terrible scrape of that "wild youth" to which Mrs. Doug- las is so fond. of alletling. Once free of that early trouble, be had solemnly promised Lauraine never to touch card or dice again, and he has kept his word. Lady Jean does not press him, though she looks surprised athis refusal. She sits with him in a dim corner of the room, and lures him on to talk to her as helms done of late. Watching them with anger and suspicion are two fierce eyes, the oyes of a certain Connt Kerolyski, of whom no one knows anything except that he is a Hungarian, an expert card player, and it deadly shot.

This feanouslimesiam worna.n 18 generally believed to be a spy in the pear of the Mus- covite Government. Those who are as. quainted with her and her resources assert that there ie no other way of accounting for the outlays of mouey which she expends with such lavislinese for the furthereuce of her projects. These, speaking broadly, consist of a nevementling attempt to exteud the power of It nesia, For the leartherance of tins par - pose she has visitea and reeided in England for several yeara. There she exercised such a favorable influence over Gladstone that his attention to her excited some very malliokras comment upon the part of the Tory press. .A.t a meeting held at St. James' Hall, at which both Mme. Novikoff and Gladstone wore preaept, a little incident happened that attracted considerable attention. The meeting had declared in emphatic terms that no war should be undertaken in de- fence of the Turks, and that Lord Salis- bury should, at the coming conference, in- eist on the liberation of Bulgaria. When the enthusiastic crowd was dis- persing, Mate. Novikofe got caught in the Inman swirl that was crushing downstairs. Suddenly Mr. Gladstone recognized her in the press, and making his way to her side, offered her his arm, and conducted. her safely down. Not content with this act of somewhat perilous coarteey, considering the aceusa- tient] that were being hurled in reckless profuaion against Mr. Gladstone on account of his alleged sympethy for Russia, he in- aisted upon seeing Mme.

She is an ardent and unreasoning Pan-Slavist,and considerations of humanity find no place in her scales to balanee the attainment of her aims. This paradox of a woman le opposed to political progress in Russia because it would give birth to a new era, hence it would make her work needless. Her ab- sorbing passion has given rise to a vem of sellishness which puts all other traits in the shade. But this 1.5 not observable at drst sight. Her diplomacy is too subtle for that. A DIABOLICAL MURDER. Colored ow Mute KIM lUs Sister -1w Law. A St. John, N.B., special says t -Prob- ably the most diabolical murder ever emit - witted in New Brunswick took place Wednesday at the mouth of the Keswick River, twelve miles above Fredericton.

On Wednesday afternoon the fnurdererei father, mother and sister went a few miles to attend an ordination service in the Baptist Church, and about the same time his brother, Heti- ley, went to a ,e,hist mill, keying at home Ids wife, two children, and the murderer. On Hedley Wheary's return from the mill his four-year-old son ran up to him and said, "Mother's dead; Eddie killed her with an axe." Immediately afterwards the murderer came out of the house, took Hedley'a span of horses (put in the barn), and fled. When Hedley entered the home A Praenrarre Stella met hitt.

All tbe little boy could say was, "Eddie kill. ed her with an axe," and that afterwards he carried the cradle with the baby en it to the father's apartments and rocked it until Hedley returned. The murderer re- turned to his house late in the evening in an excited state of naintl, carrying a potato digger, 13y this time bis father and the others had returned.

Rsmaezrzibie Diirs jutI. erjr in th SouAns- The greateat discovery of fossil remains ever made in any part of the southern hemi- sphere has just taken place in one of most. Waren and forbidding localities in the north- east of South Australia. The animals, whose remains are included m this great discovery, are principally of the extinct species, the diprotodon, a species of mar- supial closely allied to the Australian kan- garoo. in most respects, however, the cliprotodon, during its terrestrial existence, bore rather a resemblance to the hippopot- amus than to any form of mo now existent in the lands of the antipodes. Besides the bones of these animals there have been found some, remains of the gigantic bird, dinornis, now extinct. No fewer than eighty diprotodons are represented by the bones already unearth- ed, and it is evident from the close proxim- ity of the localities where the chief col. leetions have been made that the struggle for existence must have been particularly severe at the time -when so many creetures of the same species were driven to take refugemast ufeprneeaPbt Tle theory in regard to this great collection of fossil remains would, therefore, seem to be that when the race was becoming nearly extinct EOMO great drouta drove all the animals of the ear. rounding territory to seek for refuge iri the only place where water was to be found. This theory appears all the more feasible owing to the fact that certain springs of neerly fresh water are found near the lake, and these would obviously form the rally- ing point for all sores of animals during a grTeehte csilrceulliltdehf the diprotoclort measures, in some speoirnens, over :3 feet long, and the length ot the aninial, 'when set up, will be full 10 feet.
