unAPren LIV,-AT LAST,
When the chase is over, the temps
Spassed, the billows tranquil, the ship i
'safe harbor, and the sails furled, we de
•sert the sleakt to rest and, make ready fo
a new voyage.
Our story is done ; we have brought tela
,actors in our drama to safe ports -i
there be a safe port on this side the view
less line that bounds eternity. There i
nothing left unsaid that the reader ca
.not guess as well.
We might tell how, one day, tw
'months after the glad, tidings that hi
heiress was found crossed the ocean to S
Hillary Messinger, a tall, spare form
ap-
peared at the door of the Ruthvens an
demanded his grandchild, Lady Leila
Messinger; and how Francis Ferran
still confined to an irivalid's couch, aeted
-es mediator between the haughty bu
penitent old man and the still mor
haughty yoking lady, who would only "b
311.aesinger on her own terms." W
• ht tell how Lenore, in spite of he
stubborn will, learned first to pity and
then to love this old man, who8e prid
had wrecked, first his son's life and. the
his own ; and how, again and again, he
',republican sentiments and republic,a
friendships shocked the old nobleman
until his love for her, mad her arguments
that were a shrewd mingling of bravely
spoken common sense and pretty, wheed-
ling
nonsense'gained the day, and he ex-
tended the hs,n.d of friendship, not o
•patronage, to all who had been tela
friends of Lady Lenore in her time o
-need.
Like many an imperious and strong•
willed one, Sir Hillary had ourneyed
'through life, bending and swaying and
ruling all about hicu, until, at last, he
had encountered a pride as obstinate an.
a will (albeit, it was the will of a young
.girl) stronger than his own. What he
could not master he submitted to, and, a
Bob Jocelyn expressed it, "put his blue
'blood in his pocket."
Bob had delayed his journey as much
as he could, because of the uncertainty o
life or death, that for a little time hung
over Francis Ferrara. Bat justice mast
have her dues, and the oapturcd murder
ess was an uncomfortable prisoner t
have on hand, so at last he sailed away
declaring publicly, that is, to Neil, Le-
nore and the others, that he went reluc
Antly, because of "poor Ferran"; an
whispering privately in the oar of Kate
Seaton another reason why he was loath
to leave Anieriea-a reason that brought
blushes to Kate's fair cheek and a glad
light to her eyes. At last he sailed., tak-
ing the soft -voiced, fair -faced, tigress
hearted Elise Schwartz back to England,
sand to the doom that awaited. her there.
Those were dangerous days that were
passed by Neil and Lenore beside th
•-eouch of Francis Ferran, dangerous to
their peace of mind, and Kate Seaton,
looking on, rejoiced, and secretly inform-
ed Mrs. Ruthven that another triumph
-was in store for republicanism, and an -
tether downfall -for Sir Hillary.
Mr. Durand, after all, had little room
for gloomy refleetions. His wife return-
ed to him restored to health, and to find,
installed as guests in her house, Neil
Bathurst, whom she admired exceeding-
ly, and Francis Ferrars, who proved a
.gcalsend to her, giving her the opportun-
ity that her soul loved, of fussing about
a sick room, and of preparing more
dainties and delicacies to tempt the ap-
petite, than would have sufficed for a
dozen sick men.
When Sir Riflery <Arne, he, too, after
a week's sojourn at ' a hotel, became the
guest of Mr. and Mrs. Durand, and Le-
nore and Kate were almost constant
.guests at their dinner table. °
Mrs. Arteveldt was finally convinced,
very much, against her will, that she had
010 just cause to harbor enmity against
Lenore. It was a terrible shock to her to
learn that Aura, who had been her pet
and favorite, in private and public, was
an adventuress and doubly -dyed murder-
ess; but having convinced her of this -at
the expense of a terri.fic strain upon his
-own equanimity -Mr. Hale found it com-
paratively easy to persuade her that it
were best to let Elsie Schwartz go, to be
punished in England, and to let the
memory of Clarence Arceveldt rest, and
not drag to light all his faults and i oibles,
that might by unprejudiced ones be call-
ed by harsher names still. The reward
'offered for the finding of the murderess
was promptly paid.; but Mra. Arteveldt
-never renewed the subject of making Neil
Bathurst her sole heir. However, her at-
tachment to Kate Seaton survived her
;chargin eA losing her, and when, not long
after the arrest of Elise Schwartz, she
summoned Mr. Hale to draw up her will,
:in which she bequeathed the larger por-
tion of her wealth to divers charities, she
reserved -a handsome sum to be given
Kate as a marriage portion, and another
handsome sum to revert to this same
young lady at her death.
Doctor Austin was the most jovial of
men in these days; he never tired of tell-
ing how he bad rushed in hot haste to
Doctor Barten's private asylum to find
Lenore gone ; and when, one fine spring
day, Lenore, Kath, Neil and Doctor Aus-
tin drove out to Dr. Burton's to dine with
him, that worthy custodian of the mental-
ly afflicted exclaimed in high glee:
"Bless my soul! but this is the'jolliest
day I have ever experienced. To think
that Miss Lee is a lady of rank, and that
• she was not insane at all! Bless-my-
aoull"
To which Doctor Austin responded:
"And to think that this young dog,"
meaning Neil, "tried to clain relation-
tltip, and studied my musty old books
for three months. And he warned, me to
'beware of detectives, or any other sort of
-confidence men; ha ! ha 1 ha !"
George Fordham recovered from his
'pistol wound, and together with his gen-
tlemanly gang, went to learn some use-
ful. and legitimate trade, in safe seclusion.
Nina Anmn shared their fate ; but
doubtless she will be at large in a few
years, at the moat, for she is a handsome
woman, and believed to have been led
into dark ways through her love for
Fordham, For it is only known to Fer-
ran and Batharst that she is Mts. Pome-
roy, the wife and accomplice of a noto-
rious English burglar and Counterfeiter,
who was shot while resisting the officers
of the lava and that she, heraelf, amend-
ed two officers, in making her escape at
the time of her husband's death. The
opals, and the diamond ring, given her
by Aura, or Elise, and. which wet a part
of the booty brought by Elise from the
old Jew's coffers she retarned to the 1
, which" 'co '.
li ectton Reit, took with him to Eug-
11,141. and reetored to the crown.
Ilifis. Richards never resumed her old
life; after a time, :she confided her story,
a sad, but very common one, to Mrs.
Durand ; and that good woman, who had
Oven a daughter's place to a far greater
sinner, bade her remain, acting as house-
keeper, as before, and, so, surrounded by
DeaafteguiTsitlehmtasn.dRIceirlyardgsraretenfhialiiiths, ilti.,1
theted, and happy.
, Down at the mores, the day aft r the
stabbing of Franc's Perms, a ta 1,
i darkfaced forni lay stretched out; the
* head was disfigured and blood-stained,
L' and the faee scarce recognizable. No
one came to claim it, and it was
s •
, given a pauper burial; yet this man
' had • d
aspire to be a peer of Eng-
' land. So ended, and justly, too, the
3 '
career of the villain Jason Bradwardine.
i Mrs. Harris would not have been Mrs.
Harris, had she not contrived to discover
the whereabouts of Lenore, and to present,
herself as an object for favorable con-
sideration forthwith. But, not feeling
especially indebted to the lady, and not
considering, her a desirable acmaintance,
' Lenore speedily settled her claims, l' y be-
stowing upon her a generous gift of
I.
monoy, aad then assuring her that hence-
t forth they were strangers.
1 Gentleman Jeff is a gambler still ; but
' he still numbers Lenore, Kate, the three
' detectives, Mr. Durand, Doctor Austin,aa,
Mr. Hale, and even Sir Hillary,
I his friends, and he still posse fees those
) qualities that are lacking in many men
' who boast of an honorable calling, chiv-
' alry, generosity, high courtesy, and a
l profound respeet for all good women.
t Mr. Durand is without an heir, bat, it
1 is whispered, that the quondam 'Charles
' Durand, the man who saved his wise from
the poisoner, and drove the serpent from.
his threshold, will one day inherit his
- wealth. But Neil thinks not, cares not,
-betterfor this. He is absorbed in a brighter,
: dream.
And so let 118 leave them. Let lig leave
- Kate Seaton looking forward with joyful
• anticipation to the return of her lovar,
- the gallant Bob.
; Let us leave Francit Ferran coming
• back to health and. strength, surronuded
• by friends, and rejoicing in the regard of
1 Lenore awl. his brother detectives.
l Let us leave Neil and Lenore absorbed
1 in their dream of happiness; a dream
that we, knowing Lenore, feel well as -
i mired, will not be shattered as was the
love dream of her parents, by the hand of
a Judas, or the pride of birth.
; The Spain wears on to Summer, the
Summer of nature, and the summer of
' their lives, and, sometimes, in these days
when Lenore hears, or reads, of the gal. _
lant deeds of brave detectives, she thinks,
with a sigh and a smile, of the time when
she was " Shadowed by Three."

What is
. ,
(00trautnitna )
Once in every three months the kip-
:worths aro invited to dinner, and there
our entertainments end, for no Other
Strangers eat of our salt from Jen:waxy to
Nee ,b x. How it is that papa has not
succeeded in quarreling with the reverend
gentleman I cannot imagine, for goodness
knows he has tried hard enough. Mr.
Skipwokth, however. is one of those dear,
affectionate souls who find it absolutely'
impassable to quarrel with any one who
,
has in his . t •
it powertobestow eer ath, sub-
stantial gifts; and when the is
slaps him on. the one cheek, he is Christ-
ian enough to Offer him the other, and,
is more, look as if he liked it. He
is talking to mother now; a stout,
sleek, pear-shaped man, whose legs
al slays seem to me to have been
swallowed up his body, as the lesser rods
were by Aaron's. He has a smile that
would butter the wh sle neighborhood; a•
smile that Jack and I hate, and would
wipe off his face with a duster if we•
could. Papa is talking with Mrs. Skip-
worth. How the broad Sane sun is flood-
Uig her purple gown and purpler face!
11.0a hot and kind and uneasy she looks,
for her dress is stretched across her tight
as a drum! Poor soul, she squints; not
harmlessly, wonderingly, inoffensively,
but diabolioally ; while one eye appears
to be surveying the person she addresses,
the other is firmly fixed on some one the
other side of the room. Jack and I have
worn ourselves out in. speculations as to
whether she is literally able to keep her
eye on two people at once, or whether
she makes up her mind which eye she
means to look out of, and. drops that one
and takes ap the other at a moment's
notice ; in short, shifts the seeing power
at will ; whether -but our marvelinas
ars not worth the writing do ivn• 'Plain
as she is, there is yet s •mething, very
unique and interesting about her -she
has no children! And she is probably
the only paraouts wife on. record who has
n Jt half a cloaen, she deserves to be
chronicled as an amazing and historical
fact. Greatness has its drawbacks, how-
ever, and sh i is not satisfied with her
childless h.ome ; her husband. does not
like it either, and I have seen him glance
at our overflowing' numbers with a
scarcely concealed bitter envy that sends
a pang, 1 am sure, to the womanly heart
beating so warmly under the gorgeous
satin. yon ler, that would never be on her
back . fret were gathered. about
her, little voices clamoring for milk and
bread and butter. And. now we are
walking in to dinner, and Jack taking
an unfair advantage of nay proximity to
him., trips rae up in such a wise that I
take a header into my pastor'a ainple
back, and am only saved from igominious
disgrace by the fact that the governor is
too far ahead to notice the slight scuffle.
I wonder why people always feel so
much more hungry on Sundays than. any
other day'? Is it the sermon, or is it be-
cause we have kept our mouths shut so
long that we have not taken in 'enough
air? Anyvray, we settle to our dinner
in earnest, and. there is a long, satisfied
silence. I come to the surface first and
glance around me, thinking how very
lake animals we all look, though we do
use knives and forks and stterteralapasas.
Mrs. Skipworth looks uneasy; her
dress certainly is tighter than it was in.!al
the drawing -room. Surely there will be
an explosion soon. There is! She lays
down her knife and fork, gives a mighty
snooze -a loud crack., as of hooks and
eyes being divorced, is heard, then she
settles herself in her chair and looks re-
lieved. It is very strange, but there is no
gaping fissure visible in front, therefore
there must surely be one behind; yet
James,. who is at her back, has no specu-
Iation on his eye, and he d.oes not offer to
fetch a shawl to hide her ruins, so it
can't be there. It is certainly very inys-
terious. How delightful it is to sit still
and to know that we shall not be called
upon to pro -vide conversation ; for, d all
the hard tasks the governor sets us, that
is the hardest. When we were small
children we were ordered to be silent, and
bade never to open our lips in his pres-
meal. WeI
never went to him in any of
our childish joys or troubles, he took no
interest in us ; and we, who would have
loved him if he hat let us c t
, isme a have
no feeling for him save that of fear. Now,
that we are growing up, we are notA
afraid of him; but the old restraint lies
heavy about us, and upon his bidding us
talk, lo ! we find that the fountain is
dry, and the harder we pump the less we
bring up, and it is the daily puzzle of our
lives to find "something to say," or to hit
upon some safe subject concerning which
we may furnish up a few remarks. We
are not afraid. of him; but, nevertheless,
it is a degrading and mortifying fact that,
whereas, beaind his back, we are bold as
lions, before his face we are meek as
lambs, while our voices remain obstina-
tely in our boots. If our lives depended
on it we could not give one sueh whoop in
his presence as we utter a. hundred times
a day when he is out of ear -shot.
The batter and footman hurry hither
and thither, executing impromptu slides
in their flights across country, that move
us to admiration ; but woe betide them
if, in their slavish haste, they click one
plate against another, or fail to appear at
papa's elbow, -vegetable or sauce laden,
the very moment he Le ready for a fresh
supply 1 -while, as to dishes, if, as soon
as one disappears, aattber does not tn.
staiatly take its place, his face becomes
such a study of scorn and disgust as any
living actor might seek in vain to imitate.
We all sit round and watch him with a
never-ending amazement not uniningled
with admiration, and wonder how onADVOCATE
earth he does it. His fame seems to be
made of India -rubber, end takes every
inflection and shade of ill -temper and
uncharitableness. I believe if we watch-
ed him until doomsday we should see
some fresh contortion every day. Ile

-he acts. A dish -cover in his hand be -
comes a shuttlecock that the. battledore
of his wrath may send into the grate, or
out of the window, or after James' rapid-
ly-van'shing calves; it is impossible to
tell where, we can only watch his eye
and speculate as to the probable direation
it will take.
To -day, however, there are no sueh
conipliraents flying; and, if Mr. Skips

es now and t 'en intereept a

then ? He is used to the go -mantas little

Songs We All Know.
"Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep" was
an inspiration which came to Mrs. Emma
'Willard, a New York teacher, during her
return voyage from Europe. The music
was composed by Joseph Philip Knight,
the teacher of music in her academy.
"The Last Rose of Summer," one of
Patti's favorite • songs, was the work of
Thomas Moore. The melody is a very
ancient Irish tune, formerly known as
"The Groves of Blarney." This tune has
been found in collections of Irish music
at least 200 years old.
"The Blue Bells of Scotland" was the
work of Annie McVicar, afterwards Mrs."Nonsense
Grant, the daughter of a Scottish officer
in the British army. The melody was
long believed to be Scottish,. but is now
being an
known to to be of English origin,sqeak,
English folk song.
"Kathleen Mavourneen" was written
by Mrs. Crawford, an Irish lady, whose
songs ninety years ago were in high re-
pute. The music was by Crouch, an ee_
centric genius, who in his old age and
poverty begged his way into a concert
given by Titiens, that he might hear his
own composition fitly sung.
"Old Dog Tray" was in its time one of
Foster's most popular songi, 120,900
copies being sold na eighteen months. It
was written in. the back room of a com-
blued grocery and grog shop in New
York, and was immediately sold by the
author to a firm of publishers that made
o fortune fromsits sale.
"Old Folks at Home," eq.ually .well-
known as "The Suwanee River," was the
most popular song ever known. in
America. Over 400,000 - copies were sold
during the first five years after its ap-
pearance. E. P. Christy, of the o ' • as.
Christy's Minstrels, paid $400 for the
privilege of having his name printed on
the title page of one edition as the author
and composer.
"Auld Lang Syne" is of uncertain or-
igin, there being, several versions of this
deservedly popular song. One of the best
is byBurns, but only the second and third
stanzas are by this poet, the remainder
being from the pen of Ramsay. The ERMA
is of uncertain antiquity a one version is
dated 1716, another is said to date from
the sixteenth century.
"Massa's an the Cold, Cold. Ground"
was considered by Stephen Poster to be
the best of all his compositions. He got
the idea from a slave of Covington, Ky.,
whom he heard bewailing the fact that
his good old master was dead and that he
and several other slaves who had become
old and worn out would nowpass into the
hands of less kindly master. .
"Home, Sweet Home," Payne's song,
was originally a number in the opera
"Clara the Maid of Milan," a produetiou
brought out in 1823. The opera was a
failure, and nothing is now known of it
save the one song, which became instant-
ly popular. Over 100,000 copies were sold
in the first year of its .publication, and
the sale in one form or another has been
constant ever since the first appearance
of this beautiful theme. The Melody is a
Sicilian. folk -song and was adapted to the
words by Paynehimself. .
"The Old Oaken Bucket" was written
by Woodworth, a printer, of New York
and of alniost every other American city.
Not far from the printing office where he
was employed there was a dram shop
which he frequented, and one hot summer
Afternoon he strolled in there and -called
for brandy. It was poured Out and as he

"The fact is, Nell," says Jack, glace

and I didn't thiek it of you -no, I didn't.
However, I'll let you have till to -morrow
to think it over; and, if, when I throw a
han.dful of gravel up at your window, at
five o clock, you are not dressed and

„No. you won't," I say, rebelling
against this injustice; "if I don't go it
won't be because I am afraid, but because
I don't want to see the -the -mess."

We fall into a silence, and sit down
under a tree, and t the parrot, who has
been gravely walking behind with the

wicked sayings but never a good one.
