"He is not in the least likely to find it, in any ease. but it is safer here." She unflatened her travelling. bag and drew forth the contents, whose weight and her solicitude about it had puzzled Lieutenant Trevanion.

The old lion read this passage aloud again, and laughed butright in the bit- ter intensity of his scorn.

Sybil Lemox shall be ngy heiress, and he shall not in- herit the priee of a rope to hang liim- self!" Ile dashed the letter fiercely aside, and started up, pacing up and down. The grand old face was stormy with rage; the fiery dark eyes, that never lowered their light to friend or foe, flashing with impotent passion. Rage, grief, shame, all distorted the massive countenance, and the sainewy hands clinched until the nails bled the palms, "And he dare come herehe dare foe me! I don't know what shall keep me from shooting him down like a dogl" Ile strode up and down the magnifi- cent lengta of the library, quite alone in his impotent storm of fury. A spa- cious and splendid apartment, the wain- scot lined with books from floor to eeil- ieg, busts of grand old Greek poets gaz- ing serenely cloven on the lore of ages, and over the marble chimney-plece clock, with Amphytrite guiding a group of fiery sea -horses, in bronze. In the deep fireplace where, for four hundred years, the blaze ef Yule had risen high at Christmas -time, a sea -coal fire burned now, its red glow flashing fitfully on the dark paneling and wains- °ding, on busts and pictures, books and bronzes, quaint old Indian and Chin - eke cabinets, and vases as high as your head. The library was lighted by one vast Tudor window, with cushioned seats -a window that was a study in itself, and which overlooked u wide vista of velvet town, cool depths of fragrant fern and underwood, and waving belts of beech and elm, A grand old place is this Mon.kswood Hall -a monastery once in the days long gone when there had been monks and monasteries all over England, before the Royal BlUebearcl and his red-haired daughter came to banish and burn and behead. And under the leafy arcades of its primeval forest, of its majestic oaks, and towering elm and copper beech, the ghostly prior who had ruled there last, walked still, sombre and. awful, with. cowl and gown, in the stormy moonlight and still, black dead of night. And some ghostly curse had fallen on the usurping race of the "bold, bad Trevanions"; for the legend ran, that for Many a night before the death of the bead of the house, a solemn bell tolled in those windy turrets -an awful hell, that no mortal eye might see, no mortal hands might ring. The Prior's Walk lay -open to all -a woodland aisle -where the elms met above your head -where the inghtingale sung o nights and the sward was as emerald velvetLa long avenue of green beauty and delight, and a ahort cut to the village. But for all its loveliness and convenience, there were few in all Speckhaeren who cared to brave the ghostly horrors of the Prior's Walk at aightfall.

Now, at the fiery to'd raartinet's thundering command, he turned without a word. He knew his father -not fiercer at the tak- ing of Douro or Talavera-not more deadly at the grand charge of Waterloo ----bad that clarion voice of command led to the death or to the victory-. He knew hie ofather, and he knew himself, and, without one syllable of entreaty or ex- postulation or defianee, he looked his last foreevr upon his father's face, and went forth to brave his fate. He left the library, creased a tesselat- ed pavement of white and black stone - down a sweeping stair -way of slippery oak, black and polished, and wide en- ough to drive up the proverbial coach - and -four, The vast baronial hall of the manor, with its gulfs of chimneys, its carved stone ehimney-pieces, so lofty, thet there must have been &puts in the clays when they could be used. hung with family portraits by Holbein ana Dyek-with branching antlera of rea deer, suits of mail that strong old wa-r riors of the Trevanion blood had clank- ed it' before the walls of Antioch in the Crusade days long syne. A grand and stately old entranee hell, where the tide of wassail, the blaze of yule logs, had eurged high many a merry Christmas. Massive doors of oak opened down the. length of this interminable halt, and through eorne of these, standing ajar, the young man caught sight of long vis- tas of splendoi and color, of glowing draperies, rich carving, and gleaming firediglit pictures of brightness and luxury, to dream of strangely in weary years to come. His hand was on the door to depart, when the shrill cry of a child arrested him -se wild cry of joy and surprise, and the next instant a little Wry figure came flying down the stairs, and plumped headlong into hi* arm. "Cyril! Cyril! • • Cyril!" a perfect scream of childish ecstasy; "oh! Cousin Cyril!". "Sybil!" the young man said, catch- ing the fairy up, and kissing her; "my dear little pet Sybil!" This is, Indeed, an astonisilier! I thought you had one for good to Scotland," "Mamma is here, and baby Charley -a we are all come on a visit. But, oh, Cousin Cyril! I didn't know you were coming!

They assist in many ways on the farm, pull the Produce to market and deliver the milk from the dairy. Fortunately for them, their lives are controlled by constitutional lame, which prohibit the whip and the carrying of human cargo. Although this law does not always prevent the lazy messenger boy from imposing on his dumb companion, it will be seen that the Government endeavors to supress any at- tempt at cruelty. In appearance they are a cross between a mastiff and a New- foundland dog, sturdy and inteligent.
