The interest which the two portraits had awakenedius.I bet's mind was extreme, and yet sbe found it impossible to get another word from Mrs. Merthyr respeetmg their original. It was evident that the house- keeper repented having been even so cont- ounicative on the point as she had been. Mabel had, as the fact of her being Mrs. Winthrop proved, every keen sense of hon- our, and was eertatniy not the sort of woman who likes to gossip with her serving -maid ; but she was a woman, and curiosity so far got the better of her that, -when Vanee was brushing her iongbrown hair that night, she put this question to her : " Were you here much in the late Mrs. Winthrop's time ?"

Mebel spoke with a noble scorn, far be- yond stere wounded dignity. She had not felt so outraged even by Horn's insults as now by his father's wild and wandering words. It was Impossible even for him to .misjudge leer, to mistake her planner for aught but what it was, a just resentment at grail and wicked imputation. " .Forgive me," said he humbly—" for- give Inc.

Some call- ed iter "IL$neiful; " but her troubles were real enough, Heaven knows.' " T'ltauk you, Carry ; that will do," said Mabel, referring lathe brushing of her hair, but with an indircet reference to the topic under discussion, which the waiting -maid could not but understand. " You are not angry with me, ma'am, I hope "e"talk; the e girl, as she took her leave ; "butl se. rcely know what I say when any- body spe,•rl:s of Mr. Horn." It was ecrtaitlly not to be expected of Mabel that she should feel any reaentmeut on behalf of her step -son, so that site con- fined herself to sumo that the subject had bel ter not be resumed 'between them. Curiously edolgh, the salve unpleasant topic was forced upon Mabel the next morn- ing, in quite another fashion. A letter was brought to her as she was dressing, from Martha, and in it an enclosure addressed in an unknown Hand. She read Martha'sletter first—a tender and loving one, which brought the tears into her eyes, and filled her. heart ; with a warmth it had not known for months butit had this postscript " Just as I had finished my epistle, who should look in but Mr. Horn Winthrop ! Ho tells me you and your husband aro such gadabouts, tdtathe does not know your ad- dress. When I said : " Why, they are at home at Wapshot," he was, or affected to be, quite surprised. " Well, as you are writ- ing," said ire, ""perhaps you will be so good as to enclose these few lines to your cousin." Why he did not post them himself, I cannot imagine. Between ourselves, I don't greatly like Mr. Horn, my dear ; a veryinferiorper- son to his father, I feel sure, and not quote a gentleman. He staid a week at Brackmere after your marriage, during which time he amused himself, it seems, by endeavouring to pump out of our excellent Rachel every- thing she knew about you. Of course he got no information ; but the attempt to ob- tain it in such a fashion was most shameful." When Mabel read this, she knew at once by what means Horn Winthrop had become informed of her having received Richard's anonymous gift. What webs of fraud and meanness was not this creature capable of spinning, to obtain his cruel ends ! It was with a shudder of fear, almost as much as of loathing, that she teok up his note. DEAR STEP-Afornaa, I take this means of writing to you under safe cover, lest my father, whose little foibles you have doubt- less discovered by this tine, should be jeal- ous even of me. I have written to hiss by the same,post to ask for a little more money th -Aid, and rely upon your good offices to ,. If I bad any anonymous friend to send metbanknotes,' I would not trouble you. In case of there being any difficulty about the matter—which, front- what I know of your good sense, I am far from anticipating —you will soon see me at Wapshot in per- son. I hope this will not be necessary, since, when it is not the shooting -season, lam con- scious of being rather a nuisance in a Coun- try house. Verbum sap. H. W. " No, no ; I shall be better soon," gasped Mr. Winthrop.—" I am better now. It was only apassing faintness. The doctors say I must not excite myself." Xotwith. standing that he essayed to smile he looked osatdairand 1c) saw that he nervous r, alarmed, she was feeling itis pulse beneath his wristband. "I will talk to you again, Mabel, about this, but not just now. There will not steed to be any argument : I will give hint his answer onco for all. Be as good as to come to my study in an hour.,, Mabel was there at the time appointed. Her husband had an opcu letter in his hand, which he had apparently just written: it was very short but the torn paper that be- strewed Iris desk showed that it was not the firat that he had penned. He motioned her to a chair, and spoke ae follows, very calmly, though it plainly cost him n0 little effort to be calm. " You have said, Mabel, that Horn is not a gentleman : and 1 ant bound to say that his conduct does not belie your words—still ho is my son—at present niy only son, and at all events, will inberit at no distant date --this vast estate. Well, for lyour sake, I have broken with him.' Mabel held up her bead, and strove to speak, but Mr. Winthrop exclaimed "Silence 1" hi so sharp n tone, that slio dared not disobey him. " a.m wroug itt saying that it is for your saxe only," he resumed, " since I hope, —since 'WO both hope—there will be another concerned in the matter, in time, whose in- terests should be very dear to you. If I died to-moraow, Mabel, yourself and the child that you carry within you would be beggars, dependent on this man's mercy for a crust of bread." Mabel could not repress a shudder. " T'his ought not to be, and shall not. When I saw my son at Braokmere, I gavehim itwasawrong to you and yours— a great sum,suf tient for his needs for years, and he writes me that it is all gone. He can got money if he pleases by speculating on my death, he says ; well, let him. Hz shall have no more beyond his allowance, fromme. I mean it. For the rest of my life, what I have to spare will be laid by for you and yours. I have written—here—to say that that is my tmalterable resolution. He cannot credit you with this ill turn, for I have let,him know thatyou endeavoured to excuse lint, and even to subordinate your interests to his own." Mabel bowed her head in genuinegratitude. It really seemed as though her husband had umdesignedly bit upon the very plan that promised her protection. But would Horn believe him ? Or if he did so, would he not at once come down in fury to Wapshot, and tell his father what he knew. From what she had seen of her husband that morning, she feared such a disclosure more than ever ; in his state of health, and with his morbid feel- ings, it might even kill him on the spot. If she had only had the courage to tell it to him herself—and indeed, site would have done so if he had encouraged her by any show of confidence, such as lie was now, ton late, exhibiting—all might now have been well ; she might have defined Horn's utmost malignity ; but as it was, her long concealment of the fact of Richard's gift, would, she felt only too surely, attachin her husband's eyes the worst significance to it. It was evident from Horn's letter that he took it for granted that she had not revealed it, and now he would come and tell ib with his own lips. He would not trust it to paper (she was well convinced of that) but would present himself at the Hall in per-. theirway. How formulable must the angor of this young man be, of whicheven his own father stool in fear! Aforebodingofevil, such as she hat known but onco before., teak possession of her, and with it avague terror, suck as site had never known, which made her wish that instead of ti.'e narrow sea, she was abort to place be- tween Miran and heratepson the breadth et the Atlantic, or a hemisphere. (TO BE CONTINUED). Quietism Pranks In Far Russia. It was but three years ago that Russia cele- brated thenixtebundredthanniveraary of the country's conversion to Christianity, yet mot other traditions have to hetraced, back to the times when wooed= prevailed in the country; Stiil,the Rusaians are called a. young people—that is a fast if one considers that, thanks to her long struggle under the Tartar yoke, Russia is one of the last comers to the feeaat of civilization. Yet oven drawbacks seem to have their uses; the very conditions that retard Rnsaia'a progress often go far to endow that country with a tinge of romauceandpeet uilattain- able in a country built upon the hard roeks of common sense, and facia that aro too re- cent to be even disputed by history, while of folk lore the country has none. �, Given the striking cliseimilaraties of the origin and conditions of life in Russia and Canada, it must he taken for grouted that the real affinity existing between the two is chiefly to be attributed to the attractions exerted by contl;ista, and at no time aro these contrasts more ilrarked, at no time is Russian life catering so much to the taste for the supernatural and the romantic than at Christmastide, when the pastimes of most people are permeated with superstitions that a Russian willingly upholds in honor of old time tradition, even when he is decidedly above the putting of any faith in suchthings. Just as i:asteris the tirne for rolling color- ed eggs, carnival the time for mad driving on troikas, for ntasqucrading in fancy cos- tumes and eating buckwheat cakes by the dozen, so Christmas time—since the .5th of December and up to the 6th of January—is chiefly devoted to all kinds of frolic, games and performances strongly tasting of witch- craft. Every one seems to bo trying to steal a look into the future by the help of some occult means, and avert such people as have no faith whatever in the supernatural take a baud at it for fun's sake. Young people at CCnristmas time have it all their own way, aud what with driving, parties, what with masquerading, dancing and organizing all kinds of devices for as- certaining ones future, the evenings indeed seem then to fly on wings. Christmas time is hold to be the season when inscrutable, occult forces are at their prime,when witches and frolicing devils hold high carnival be- fore being driven from the world by the s rinkling of holy water blessed on the day of the Epiphany, consequently there is no better thne than that for wrenching from the spirit world the secrets that it withholds from human knowledge. Of course, since the performances are mostly indulged in by the young people, the chief point of interest is to ascertain whether one would get married in the course of the corning year, and what kind of a husband one is going to have- The oldest and most interesting of such games, however, brings old aud young alike together. All assemble standing around a table having a basin of water on it, and each one drops a ring or some other small trinket in the water, after which the basin is covered with a piece of cloth. Then, such young women as know how begin to sing the podbludfiya piessity— terse couplets serving to predict either a wedding or funeral, riches or poverty, travels or sickness, joy or sorrow, and so forth. The owner of the ring, taken by an outside party out of the bowl at the end of the song, is to expect that it is on him or her that the pre- diction of the song will come true. Sometime3 each girl make a little boat out of the shell of a walnut, and sticking a tiny wax taper in it she lets it float on the water of a basin stood on the table. Each 5,ir1 lights her taper and watches her own boat. The sooner is the lighted taper in the boat to burn out the sooner is the owner of the boat to get married. The owner of the taper that remains burning last is to join the ranks of the old maids, while death is said to await the owner of a boat that would capsize. It may be remarked, by the way, that the sign about joining the ranks of old niaicis im- plies a pure fiction as far as the lower class- es of Russia are concerned. Among them are old maidsto be seen. All girls are married off before twenty and cripples and imbeciles. are the only ones thatare apt to find out the joys of single blessedness. The reason for it is not far to seek, sine° the male population of Russia considerably outnumbers the female one. Of course among the higher classes prudential considerations are apt to show themselves just as strongly as elsewhere in preventing young people from marrying, and there the old bachelors are likely to outnum- ber the old maids. Still, ;though tolerably well insured against the dire misery of old maidenhood, the Russian maidens are just as anxious about the marriage question as their sisters of less favored in that respect countries and are just as eager to find out when they will secure husbands in their turn. .0f course it must chiefly be the pro- cess of courtship, that appears to them so at- tractive, because marriage•among the lower classes is considered to be the end of the • !c and freedom, of flog m young woman's days r. , and the immediate prospect of it drawa many tears from the bride and her companions: It was with small appetite, as may be well ! son, and perhaps gain his end at once by imagined, that oor Mabel went down to , slaying his father with the news. if Mabel did not love her husband, she was a loyal wife, and his late unexpected tenderness to her, and foresight for her in- terests, had touched her heart.
