At last: "Heaven have mercy on you, most miserable of women! said Miss Elmer.

Laura entered the neat and quiet chamber, where the snow -whits curtains of the windows and the bed, and the clean hearth and bright fire, diffused an air of purity and cheerfulness through rho scene. She could not sleep, but, drawing an easy chair beside the little table before the fire. she fell into deep and severe thought upon the subject of the probable assassin of the baronet. 2 Painfully and intensely as she thought, she was still, as it were, estremeJy con- scious of the sounds without. She tiered _Ruth Russel and her children mov- tng about; she heard the murmuring of Unit. evening prayers at their mother's knee; she heard that poor mother take 1 heard the arrival of your visitor last night, and overheard much of your con- vesation, by which I was enabled to identify the individual This morning I must lay before the police all the par- ticulars with which I have became ac- quainted, as well as my own private sus- picions.

But you will permit nue to pay you for the whole terns for which my lodgings were engaged; and I wish you, besides, to rest assured of my esteem and friendship, and willing services in everything in which I can aid you with- out injuring the cause of justice." "141iss Elmer, I cannot complain, cruel- ly as Y suffer in this affair; I know that you are perfectly right in all that' you do. But poor as I am, I cannot and will not receive payment for the lodg- ings that youhave occupied only a day, and that you leave this morning, not from caprice, but from a sort of neces- sity," said Mrs. Russel, weeping piteous -1 ly"I am glad you perceive I can do no ! otherwise than I am about to do.

"Yes; but not when they have been occupied but for a day, and are left from! . necessity; so let us say no more about it.

At last all was �piaerrfeatly quiet, nothing breaking the si- 3arace except the hourly striking of the old-fashioned clock in the passage below. Laura sat intently thinking as the hours slowly passed. The clock struck twelve, and still she sat and thought; one, and still she never changed her atti- tude; two, and ate had not once even looked up, or remembered that it was at that witching hour on the preceding night that the awful cry of murder had rung through Lester House, appalling the inmates, arousing the sleepers.

Everything alarmed her now; she listened and heard said Mrs. Russel "And after the manner of such vil- lains, he has taken away all your funds with him," sadi Laura, indignantly. Mrs. Russel evidently could not deny this fact: "Then I will tell you when he will return —as soon as that money is exhausted. Mrs. Russel, I should think 1 you would be glad of any law that would free you entirely from such a beast o1 prey."

"Come, come, Ruth, this is a very cold reception. Unbar the door, there's a darling." Sobbing bitterly, Mrs. Russel unbar - rod the door, and admitted the noctur- nal visitor. Still sobbing bitterly she said some- thing about a "lodger," and from that ever you were to talk with him, you would not think eo i11 of him," said the nleelc little woman. "I am very sorry for you. I do not willingly wound you, only I would be glad to see you with a clearer moral vision, and a greater moral strength," replied Laura, gently. "I do not complain, And now, Miss Elmer, will you at least breakfast before you go?" "Yes, thank 'you" "And when shall I order a eab?" "Immediately after breakfast, if you please, Mgrs. Russel." The landlady left the room to fulfill these directions, and immediately after breakfast Miss Elmer went out in a cab to procure new lodgings. Her cirelun- stances did not permit her to be fastid sous. She secured the most respectable lodgings to be found nearest to Newgate, and into them she removed in the course of the same forenoon, She cent her new address to Dr. Clark, moment the conversation was carried on with a request that he would call upon hi so low a whisper that, although Laura her at his earliest convenience.

You find me making minutes of e. elinin of evidence, or rather of probabilities which I wish to submit to you. I feel convincedha t tlhav have got the clue to the real murderer of Sir Vincent." "Indeed!" exclaimed the doctor, in amazement, "Let me hear!" Miss Elmer comurenerd and related all the circumstances of her fragmentary am- quaintanee with Sir Vin eat leaders protegee, Helen ltn.venseroft; the nye- teriougq stranger that waylaid and fel. lowed her carriage; the rnidni +fit inter- view and angry words that pa -;ed be- tween this stranger a rd Oil baronet upon the occasion when Flit) acidentally discovered there together; and finally the conversation that had secretly pees - ed between herself and poor Ituth lbus- sel, in which she was enabled to put cer- tain disjointed incidents together, and identify the mysterious "light -haired man" with a certain notorious criminal who had fled from justiee years ,betore. "Now, deep in my heart is the convie. tion that this man and no other wan the assassin of this unfortunate bar - muttering conversation went on alI night—went on till day was dawning in the east, when Laura Elmer, worn out by two nights' watching, dropped asleep in her chair and slept heavily for many hours. When she awoke it was broad day; the sun was high in the heavens. She opened her eyes and looked around in astonishment at finding herself in a strange place, and it was some seconds before she could remember how she came there. Then full consciousness of her mis- fertunes returned; the murder of Sir Vincent Lester; the imprisonment of Ferdinand Cassinove; her own change of residence; the discovery in regard to Mre. Ruesel's husband; and, lastly, the strange nocturnal visit, all recurred clearly to her memory. Iler resolution was soon taken. She arose and bathed her feverish lase, and arranged her disordered hair, and than rang her bell, Mrs. Russel, pale and haggard, as with fatigue and care, entered the room, say- ing: "No; I have not been in bed all night. I have something to say to you this morning, Mrs. Russel; but first sit down; you look, indeed, 'quite unable to stand." Mrs. Russel dropped into the nearest vett, Mise Eimer resumed her easy chair, onyt." saying: "Good heaven, and yet yon do not "t am exccrdingly sorry for you, Mrs, know the circumstance that makes that Iluaas.l, but that sloes not alter the the most probable thing •in the world?" seam of my duty. I must tall you that atte)tetiansd that doctor. Laura looked up, full of interest, "first criminal fled Ervin trial and Sir Vincent Lester was the principal wit- ness against WM; indeed, without the testimony of Sir Vincent Lester, I doubt if it would have been possible to convict him," said the doctor, "And there is the motive establialied at once for the assassination!" exclaim- ed Luara, with iucrea.sing excitement, "Yrs, the very strongest motive that can possibly actuate human nature -- that of self-preservation." "Olt, then, let us go at onee to some magistrate and lodge this information, procure a warrant tor the arrest of this Iran, and, if possible, an order for the liberation of Mr. C'aesinove." The doctor smiled compassionately, saying: "Ladies know but little of the formu- las of law, my dear Mus Ebner, else you would be aware that though we may procure a warrant for the arrest of this man we cannot possibly procure the lib- eration of young Cassinove. Having been duly committed to prison to answer the charge of maid:". in eel rrm'tiu a pri- soner until his trial shall have ended in his acquittal or—" The doctor left the other words un- spoken. "Oh, but that is very hard,' said ) atra. "It is; and 1 must remind you of an- other set of circumstances—nanlelyethat the evidence against Ferdinand Cassin- ove, whom we believe to be innocent, is much stronger than that against the man whom we believe to be the assassin of Sir Vincent. Indeed, I doubt whether you have any evidence to give that would justify any magistrate in issuing a warrant for arresting the man upon the charge of having murdered Sir Vin- cent Lester. If a warrant should be is- sued for his arrest at all, it will 1 ro- bably be upon the old charge. But we can soon satisfy ourselves. 'iVe will re- pair at once to a magistrate and lodge the information we possess. I will wait while you put on your bonnet." Laura Elmer did not keep the good doctor waiting five minutes, but went in her adjoiningiand in to chamber a few seconds returned, shawled, bonneted and gloved for the expedition. The doctor handed her into his carriage, and t1•ey set out for Bow street. Arrived there, they had to wait some time before the magistrate was at leis- ure to attend to thein; and when at length he was disengaged, the doctor re- quested that the office might be cleared, as the information he had to give had best be given in private. The iharaeter and position of Dr. Clark insured a prompt attention to his request. When the office was cleared of all except the magistrate, his clerk, the doctor and Mise Elmer, the latter advanced, and be- ing sworn, made her statement. Now ev- erything, even remotely connected with the tragedy of Lester House, was of the utmost interest to the authorities. Mise Elemer's statement received a candid and attentive hearing and the magis- trate thought the information of suffi- cient importance to justify him in is- suing a warrant for the apprehension of the accused. Miss Elmer and Dr. Clark had the satisfaction of seeing this warrant plac- ed in the hands of an experienced offi- cer before leaving the magistrate's of- fice. From Bow steer they repaired to Newgate to comfort the prisoner there with the intelligence of the clue they had obtained to the real assassin. Meantime the officer with the war- rant sought the accused first of all at the cottage of his wife in Chelsea; but Ruth Russel and her children had flitted with all their luggage, nor could any one tell luggage, 'hither they had gone. CHAPTER XXVI. From gloom to glare; from the prison- er's cell at Newgate to the drawing room at Bersleigh House. Beresleigh Ilouse was one blaze of light. Crowds of carriages blocked up the way for some distance up and down the street before the front of the house. The occasion was this: The young Duke and Duchess of Beresleigh had re- turned from their bridal tour, and were receiving their "dear five hundred friends" at home. The drawing rooms, superbly furnish- ed, beautifully adorned, fashion and cel- ebrity of society. At one end the young duchess, the beautiful and happy bride, stood to re- ceive her guests; the loveliest where many were lovely. Her dress was arranged with her usual artistic taste .It consisted of a full Ince robe, light as a gossamer, worn , over rose-colored silk, delicate blush roses in her hair, and pearl ornaments on her neck and arms. Never had Rose been hap- pier than upon this evening, though even now she was not perfectly happy. We are never any of us at any moment of our lives. The shadow of Rose's light waa the thought or T erdinand Oassinove pining in his prison cell, and of Laura Elmer sorrowing in her gloomy lodgings. But the heart of Rose was full of hope; she had great confidence in the innocence of Cassinove, and great faith in Provi- dence: she was doing, and she meant to do, all in her power to serve Oassinove; and she had in her own heart not a single doubt either of the perfect resti- tude of young Cassinove or of his final acquittal and full exoneration from sus- picion. Therefore, she put away all pensiveness; turned her back upon the shadow and faced the sunshine; dispens- ed her smiles with equal sincerity and affability; and even, at length, joined the dance. It was while she was still dancing that she noticed her own eape- cial footman lingering near the door, as if anxious, yet afraid, to enter. Seeing this, and surmising that he might be the ,hearer of some note from Laura Elmer, she took the earliest oppor- tunity, when the dance was over, to move near the door, and beckon the man to her side. He came in, and drawing near, said: I begpardon, yourbut there grace,c is a person below who is very urgent to see you upon the most important business." "Well, show hini into the library, Mil- ler, and say that I will see him there in a few minutes. And do you yourself be there in attendance." "Yes, your grace," said the servant, *bowing and retiring. Dose entered the library, which was lighted but by one chandelier hanging from the ceilin over the central table. At this table stood a rather "shabby - genteel " looking man, with his back turned, and his hands; in his pockets. Rose, kindly wishing to put this im- poverished -looking gentleman at his ease, advanced toward him, speaking pleasant. ]y, and saying: "You have come to me from Alias El- mer or Mr. Cassinove?
