.\nunrla had not been at Wye since
her youth. Her parents, who had re-
sided there, were long since dead,
and she knew, vaguely only, of some
distant relatives. The Shastree, how-
ever, in his professional expeditions,
had frequently visited .the town, which
from the number of Q;ras'hmsn fapnilies
residing there, was then, as now, the
seat of much laerning, and from its
many temples on the bank of the Kri-
shna River, esteemed sacred.
The chief priest of one of those
temples, Vlshu Pundit, was an old
friend and antagonist in scientific and
literary discussions, and Vyas Shas-
tree knew he was sure of a heart
welcome, even if his cominge

,Mingling with the parties, therefore
which thronged the roads to the town
and hearing dnany speculations' as to
the nature of the Sutee, but nothing
definite, the travellers passed on as
rapidly as possible; and a fairer scene
titan the bad of the sacred stream,
with its hiindreids of bathers in the
sparkling waters, the temples on its
banks, and the broad flights of steps
leading to the river, could hardly be
imagined; but there was one object in
particular upon which all their inter-
est centred. Iuhe middle t t colaro
abroad
bed of sand near the stream, some
men were already piling logs of wood
into a square mass, and pouring oil
on them; fixing tall poles at the sides
and hanging garlands of flowers and
wreaths of leaves to theta. The pile
was large and would soon be com-
pleted for the sacrifice,
Vyas Shastree rode to the spot, and
inquired of the sten-they were Bra-
hntuns--for whom the preparations
were being made. They did not know,
they said, -it was a state matter,
When the Sutee came there to die she
would be seen, Meanwhile she avas alt
Vishnu Pundit's house, and be might
go and see her and worship her, as
others were doing
1At Vishnu Pundit's house! The
place to which he was going! Certain-
ly, then, he should see the ' woman,
whoever she might be, that was to be
burned. "Had her husband died, then,
last night? asked, If he had, the
Pundit's house trust be impure, and
he must loot: elsewhere for lodgings,
"No, the Sutee was in pursuance of
a vow," they said, -"not an ordinary
one, and an effigy would be burned
with iter,"
The Shastree was puzzled, and rode
'n, musing, .much at the strangeness of
the act, and unable to account for it
smisfact,wily. Such sacrifices, from
each motives., were no doubt meritor-
ious, hitt they were uncommon.
'He was not far distant now- from
their dc'tin?ttion and, ,joining Amada,
who, riding a .stout ambling Pony, was
forcing cieg her way through the crowd,
followed by Radha ,;n the litter, he
bade her cisme on leisurely and him -

of the outer court opening into the
street, across which some men Were
tying garland, of green leaves and
flowers. Seeing the Shastree advanc-
ing. he came to hint, and assisting
hint to dismount, embraced hint
warmly.
"I received your note," Ile said,"
"but I have had not time to reply to
it. I have no room for you, oil friend,
owing to the Sutee whom the Mahar-
aja has sent to me -that is, not till
to -morrow; but meanwhile my neigh-
bor the Josee gives you one of the
courts of his house. Take the ladies
there," he added to an attendant, "as
they arrive. But do you, Vyas Shas-
tree, come with 1115, 1 trust speak
with you alone, .\h, we had mourned
you dear( -yet how Wonderful it is that
you are here and today, tool Cone, 1

The Shastree followed him curious-
ly into an inner court -one like that
in his own house at fooljapoor.

the Pundit.
"She Was so, friend, and the Mus

and stretching forth his hands.
"She was an honored guest with.

how shall I say the rest?" he thought.
"How explain this misery? Alas,
what evil fate hath sent pita today!"
"Thou art keeping something from

calm. "If -if Tara -my daughter --
What is it, 0 friend? we have suffer-

her here among friends, perhaps with
thee. What hast thou to say of her?

heaid they would? I-Ia}-e-they--,�"
"Yes she is here," returned' the
Pundit hesitatingly, and turning away
his' head in a Train attempt to repress
his tears. "She -site -is a widow, is a

thought stow had no delfanite form. It
was a confused and conflicting chaos
utterly uncontrollable. "Where have
ye put her?" he asked i in a low husky
voice, as, with a sickening pressure
at his heart, his features assumed the
haggard expression of weary age.
'Friend," said the Pundit, t passing
his arm around hint, and trying• to
raise hint up, "come and see. Such
poor honor as we can do to her on

"'Int the fire," he echoed dreamily --
rising and supporting himself against
a pillar in the room with a hopeless
gesture of despair -'in the' fires -I

presently, "it cannot be: who has
wrought this cruelty upon iter? 'Who
has clone it? Of her own act and will

council have dared tot -to—"
"She thought you dead -you, her
mother and yournew wife," replied
the Pundit interrupting hint, She
was suffering hopeless persecution and
insult, and in the temple at Per:ta
burgh she stood before the goddess'
image and declared herself sutec be-
fore the Brahutuns. Could we recall
the words? 1 was present. I3ad it
been my own daughter I had been
thankful, 0 Shastree! it ivio her

Vyas Shastree could not reply. "Let,
ire see her and hear it from her own
lips," was all that he could utter at all
intelhgent;y,
"Certainly, if thou wilt," replied
the Pundit; he is ready to go even
now, but ilte ]tour is not conte. And
yet, \'yas Shastree, beware; would it
not be better site believed you alt dead
and so died happily looping for you,
than seeing you alive, be shaken in

not retract now and live, otherwise
than in dishonor and infamy; and
'hereafter you will cry in agony to the
goddess she had better have died -
and will he guilty of sin in having
shaken her faith if she live. Did you
refuse when she was called before -"
'The Shastree groaned and his
breath carte as it were' in broken
gasps. He was trembling violently.
"1-ff-must see her," he said, '"Let
her decide;" and unable to stand, he
again sat down.
'Drink some water, Vyas Shastree;
it will refresh you," said the Pundit,
bringing a vessel fall from the end of
the apartment,

it away, "I will not eat or drink til:

"What can have happened?" cried
the Pundit, hastening on. "Come

him and draiw'n him .ba'sic forcib.ly,.
while they held .him up, "Thou ean'st

man., not heeding the wand's, "Tara,

thee! 0 my child, do not alelay; come,
we will go away 'Aar away, to the
goddess--"
To the goddess! Perhaps if he had
not said this, Tara would have been
unable to repress those last fearful
yearnings to life:which' now tore her
heart; but the echo fell on her owls
spirit heavily and irrepressively. To
the goddess Yes, in -her great mis-
ery, all she could see in her mental
agony --what she saw in the temple at
Pertabgurlt,-all that she had dwelt
upon since,, -'were tate glowing ruby
eyes of the goddess far away at Tool -

glad anticipation of ehr coming, The
sante Brahmin who was preventing

ilio, she could not deny her now-
she would not. With that strange light
in her eyes -that seemingly supernat-
ural force in her actions, which the
people thought the emanation of div-
inity, Tara's spirit was rallied by his
,words, 'ley Tootle. Metal" site eried

fication of the all -absorbing grief

only remedy for despairing sorrow ---
might exist; but here was no such in-
centive, The spiritual portion of the
girl's nature was alone concerned in
the question: and that, once excited
by position and circumstance, had in-
