I sent for her to me in my riHiiu, and showed her my letter. She was honestly grieved when she read It. For a moment when she spoke her few words of sympathy the painful constraint in her manner toward me passed uway. It returned again when 1 announced my intention of starting for Franco that day. and expressed the regret I felt at being obliged to defer our visit lo Kamsgnte for the prm'iit. She imt only answered restrained)' (forming, as I fancied, some thought at the moment in her own mind) she left ine with a common place excuse. "You must have much to think of in this sad alhiction; I won't intrude on you nnv longer. If yon want me, you know where to tind mo." With no more than those word she walked nut of the room, I never rcmcmlicr at uny other time, such a sense of helplcHsncs ami confusion as came over me when she had closed the door. I set to work to pack up the few things wanted for the journey, feeling instinctively that if I did not occupy my. self in doing something, I uhouhl 'break down altogether. Accustomed, in all the other emergencies of my life, to decide rapidly, 1 was not even' clear enough in my numl to see the facts nstlu-v were. As to resolving on anything, I was alsml ns capable of doing that nsthe Imby In Mrs. Finch's arms. The effort of packing aided me to rally a little but did no more toward restoring me to mv customary tone of mind. 1 sat down helplessly, w hen 1 hail done, feeling the serious neivsHity of clearing mutters up lietween Lucilla and myself before I went awav, and still as ignorant as ever how tnibnt. To my indescribable disgust, I actually felt tears Itcgiuning to lind their way into my eyr' I had jut enough of I'ratolmigo widow left in me to feel heartily ali:uinil of mvself, Tust vicissitudes and dangers, in the davs of my republican life with my husband,' had made me a sturdy walker- with a gisv rylish l like mv little Jicks) for the t-i-vii uir. 1 snatched up my hat, and went out to sec what exercise would do for me. 1 tried the garden. No! tin; garden wan (for some inscrutable reason) not big enough. I had still some hours to spare. 1 tried the hills next. Turning toward the left ami pnjngthc church, I heard through the open windows thu ln lnmm of Kevcreud Finch's voice catechising the village children. Thank Heaven, he was out of mv wav at any rate! 1 mounted the hills, iiurrving on as fast as 1 could. The air mid the movement cleared mv niiinl. After more than an hour of hard walking, I returned lo the rectory, feeling my old self again. l'erlinM there were some dregs of irresolution still left In me. Or icrlinn there was mme enervating Inlluencc in my Affliction, which made me feel more sensi-lively than ever over the chnnge in the relations Ik t ween Lucilla and myself. I laving by this time resolved to' come to a plain explanation, before I left her unprotected at the rectory, I shrank, even vet, from confronting a possible repulse by speaking to her pvnM.uiilly. Taking a leaf out of poor 0eur'n book, 1 wrote what I wanted to ay to her in a note. I rang the Ml once, twice. Nnhndv Answered It. 1 went to the kitchen. Xilhih was not there. I knocked at the door of her bed-room. There was no answer; the liedroom wan empty when I looked in. Awkward as it would he, 1 found myself obliged either to nive mv note lo Lucilla with mv own hand, or lo decide on shaking In her. after all. 1 could not prevail on mvself In nnciilc to her. So I went to her room with mv note, and knocked at the door. Here again there was no reply. J knocked once mora with the same result. I looked In. There was no one in the room. On the little table at the foot of the lied, there lay n letter addressed tome. Tho writing wan in .Utah's httnd. Hut I.ueilln had written her name in the corner.

Hut for one sentence in it 1 should most awn i redly have answered this cruel letter by instantly resigning my situation ns Lurillu'H companion. The Mmtcnco to which I refer contained the wonls which cast in my teeth the excuses that I had made for (dear's absence. The sa nas lie reference to my recent connection with a case of emergency, and to my exoriciiee of tho necessity otliens-ing with formal farewells, removed my hist lingering doubts of Nugent 's treachery. I not only felt suspicion onlv. but nositivo conviction that he had communicated with her in his brothers nr. me. and that he had contrived (by some means by which it was imttosmlilc lor me to guess) so to work with Lucilla's mind ho to excite that indwelling distrust which her blindness had rooted in her character as to destroy her confidence In me for the time Wing Arriving at this conclusion, I could still feel compassionately and generously toward Lucilla. Far from blaming my XHir deluded sister-friend for her cruel deiiiirture and her vet cruder letter. I laid the whole fault on the shoulders of Nu gent. I1 ill I as mv mind wus of mv own troubles, 1 could still think of lite danger mat inreateiiefl Lucilln, and ot the wrong that Oscar had sulKred. 1 could still feel the old glow of my resolution to bring them together again, am) stilt rememlicr (ami determined lo pay) the debt I owed to Nugent OulKiurg. In the turn things had taken, ami with the short limo still at my disposal, what was I to do next? Assuming that Minn Hatch ford would accompany her niece to Hamsgate, how could I put the necessary obstacle in Nugenl's way, if he attempted to communicate with Lucilla at the sea- side, in my aliKciice? i ll was iniposHibte for me to decide (hi, I unless I lirht knew whether Miss Hatch- frd ns in Imt of the familv, was to Im? confidentially informed of the sad Hwition hi which Mcar ami i.ucina now stood toward each other. The person to consult in this dilliculty was the rector. As head of the household, and in my nhfcnce, the rcspoiHihili-ty evidently rested with I'evereud Finch, I went round at once to the nthorsidcof the house. If Mr. Finch had returned to the rectory, after the catecbi-ing was over, well and good. If not, I should k'ohliged to impure in the village, and seek him at the cottages of bis parishioners. Ilisinng-ni liecn t video relieved me from air anxiety on this head. The boom-boom which I had last heard in the church, I now heard again in the study. When 1 entered the room Mr. Finch was mi hi leu, highly excited, haranguing Mrs. Finch and the liuhy, ensconced as usual in n co.ncr. .My apjcarance on the scene diverted his llo'w of language, for the moment, so that it all poured itself out on my unlucky self. ( If vmi recollect that the rector and Lucilla's aunt had liecn, from time immemorial, on the worst of terms, you will lie prepared for what is coming. If yon have forgotten this, look back at my sixth chapter and refresh vour memory.) "The very person I wus going to cnd for!" said the 1'oiM'of I inichiirch. "IWt excite Mrs. Finch ! Ion't sMak to Mrs. Finch! Y'oii hall hear why directly. Address yourself exclusively io mo. He culm, Madame l'nitolungo! you don't know what has hapMned. I am here to tell you."

Mr. Finch waved away my answer with his hand, ns something too infinitely unimportunt in Ik- Worthy of a moment's notice. "Yes! yes! yes!" he said. "You have n HUM'rliciul acquaintance with the facts. Hut you nrc far from Is'ing aware of what my daughter's sudden removal of herself from my roof n-allv means. Now don't ho frightened, Marl nine I'ratolmigo! and don't excite Mrs. Finch ! How are von, my dear? how is the child ? Hoth well. Thanks to an overruling Providence, Imth well.

Mrs. Finch had barely time to my those kind words ueioro uie rector, in a voice ot thunder, desired me lo look at "that double wreck, ami resect it, if I did not resect hint" and with that walked himself, his wife und his liahy out ol the room. Having gamed the object which had brought mo into the study, I made no attempt to detain him.

To know this was to have gained the information that I wanted. Nothing wuh left but to wt my brains to work nt once and act on it. How was I to act on it? On the spur of the moment J could see but one way. If (iroHse pronounced Lucilla's recovery to be complete before I returned from abroad, the best thing I could do would be to place Miss Halehford in u position to reveal the truth in my pl.nv, without running any risk of a premature discovery in other wonls, without letting the old Imly in the secret More (lie time arrived nt which it could Ik safely divulged.This apparciily intricate dilliculty was easily overcome by writing two'letters (lieforc I went away) hi-toad of one The lirst loiter !' addressed in Lucilla.

There I ended; Mug rosolu-d,' after the wrong which Lucilla had indicted on me, to leave my justification to facts. 1 confess I was too deeply wounded bv her conduct though 1 did lay all the blame of it on Nugent to can to say a word in my own defense. This letter sealed, I wrote next to Lucilla's aunt. It was not an eusv matter to address Miss Ibtehford. Tho contempt with which she regarded Mr. Finch's opinions in mlitics and religion was more than matched by the strong aversion which she felt for my republican opinions. 1 have already mentioned, far back in thee pages, that a dispute in politics between the Tory old lady ami myself ended in a nuurrcl between us. which closed tlu doors of her house on nic from that time forth. Knowing this, I ventured on writing to her, nevertheless, kvnusc I also knew Mis Hatchford to bo (apart from her furious prejudices! a gentle- woman in the Im-sI sense of the word; devotcdlyfnllachcd to her niece, and piite ! as capable, when that devotion was ap-pealed to, of doing justice to me (apart from my furious preiudieosl as I f doing justice to her.

It is impossible for me to outer into details in the space of a letter. I rescrveall particulars until we meet again, and until I can produce what yon have a right to ask for proof that ' I nm speaking the truth. "In the meanwhile I U-g you to look back into your own thoughts, to recall your own wonls, on the day when Madame Pratoluugo otlcnded vou "in the reotorv- garden. On that occasion the truth es-raped tho French woman's Hps and she know il knew it "l)o vou remember what vim said after she hail followed vou to Krowndown ?

Till that time come, aw you value your happiness and mine, don't let Madame J'ratolungo Biispect that you havo discovered her. it is hhc, I firmly believe, who is to blame. 1 am going to my brother as you will now understand with an object far dillerent lo the object which I put forward n-A an cxeune to your fake friend. 1'ear no dispute between Nugent and me. 1 know him.

Uok back to the twenty-seventh and twentv-eigbth chapter and you will see how flkilltullv what 1 said in a moment of foolish irritation, and what Lucilla xaid when "lie too had lost her temper, is turned to account to poison her mind against inc. We are made innocently, to mipplv our enemy with the foundation on which he build bis plot. Kor the rest, the letter explains itself. Nugent still pcrsitiU in ieronating hi brother. He gu esses at the excuse I hIiohM make to Lucilla for bin absence; and he gets over the dilliculty of apK-aring lo have conliiied hi errand to a woman whom he distrusts bv declaring that he felt it necessary to deceive me ns to what the nature of that errand really was. Ah the journal proceed you will see how ricxtcroindv he works the machinery which his letter has et in motion. All I need add here, in (he way of explanation, is that the delay in his arrival at Hamsgate, of which Lucilln complains, was caused by nothing but his own hesitation. His sense of honor a I know from discoveries made at a later time was not entirely lost yet. The lower he sank, the harder hi better nature struggled lo raise him. .Nothing, positively nothing, but his own ivniorsc need have kept him nt Paris (it is needless to say that he never stirred further, and never discovered the place of his brother'a retreat) after Lucilla had informed him bv letter that I had gone abroad, ft ml (hat she was at Hauisgaie with her aunt. 1 have dime; let Lucilla go on again.

Hut where lire the iattem (Mfople wlio ran exert their intelligence, when their intelligence Kints to one conclusion, and their interests to another? ,h, my dear ladies and gentlemen, there is such a line, strong foundation of stupidity at the lxittoin of our common human hy if we onlv knew it ! 1 could feel no hesitation a soon as I I hnd recovered myself nliont what it was my duty to do. 'My duly was to leave Dimeliurch in time to'cutch the faul muil train from London to iln Coniitieut, at eight o'clock that night. And leave Lucilla ? Yes ! not even LuefllaV Interests dearly as 1 loved her, alarmed ns I felt uln.nt her were as sncrcd as the inlereMs which railed me to my father's bedside. I had itome hours to i-pare Ik-fore it would U necessary for me to leave her. All 1 enuhl do w.is to employ thoHi- limirs in taking the strictest precautious I could think of to protect her in my absence. I could not long Ik.' parted from her. t ne wnv or the other, the miserable doubt whether mv futher would live or die, would, at lit age, soon lie over. I sent for her to me in my riHiiu, and showed her my letter. She was honestly grieved when she read It. For a moment when she spoke her few words of sympathy the painful constraint in her manner toward me passed uway. It returned again when 1 announced my intention of starting for Franco that day. and expressed the regret I felt at being obliged to defer our visit lo Kamsgnte for the prm'iit. She imt only answered restrained)' (forming, as I fancied, some thought at the moment in her own mind) she left ine with a common place excuse. "You must have much to think of in this sad alhiction; I won't intrude on you nnv longer. If yon want me, you know where to tind mo." With no more than those word she walked nut of the room, I never rcmcmlicr at uny other time, such a sense of helplcHsncs ami confusion as came over me when she had closed the door. I set to work to pack up the few things wanted for the journey, feeling instinctively that if I did not occupy my. self in doing something, I uhouhl 'break down altogether. Accustomed, in all the other emergencies of my life, to decide rapidly, 1 was not even' clear enough in my numl to see the facts nstlu-v were. As to resolving on anything, I was alsml ns capable of doing that nsthe Imby In Mrs. Finch's arms. The effort of packing aided me to rally a little but did no more toward restoring me to mv customary tone of mind. 1 sat down helplessly, w hen 1 hail done, feeling the serious neivsHity of clearing mutters up lietween Lucilla and myself before I went awav, and still as ignorant as ever how tnibnt. To my indescribable disgust, I actually felt tears Itcgiuning to lind their way into my eyr' I had jut enough of I'ratolmigo widow left in me to feel heartily ali:uinil of mvself, Tust vicissitudes and dangers, in the davs of my republican life with my husband,' had made me a sturdy walker- with a gisv rylish l like mv little Jicks) for the t-i-vii uir. 1 snatched up my hat, and went out to sec what exercise would do for me. 1 tried the garden. No! tin; garden wan (for some inscrutable reason) not big enough. I had still some hours to spare. 1 tried the hills next. Turning toward the left ami pnjngthc church, I heard through the open windows thu ln lnmm of Kevcreud Finch's voice catechising the village children. Thank Heaven, he was out of mv wav at any rate! 1 mounted the hills, iiurrving on as fast as 1 could. The air mid the movement cleared mv niiinl. After more than an hour of hard walking, I returned lo the rectory, feeling my old self again. l'erlinM there were some dregs of irresolution still left In me. Or icrlinn there was mme enervating Inlluencc in my Affliction, which made me feel more sensi-lively than ever over the chnnge in the relations Ik t ween Lucilla and myself. I laving by this time resolved to' come to a plain explanation, before I left her unprotected at the rectory, I shrank, even vet, from confronting a possible repulse by speaking to her pvnM.uiilly. Taking a leaf out of poor 0eur'n book, 1 wrote what I wanted to ay to her in a note. I rang the Ml once, twice. Nnhndv Answered It. 1 went to the kitchen. Xilhih was not there. I knocked at the door of her bed-room. There was no answer; the liedroom wan empty when I looked in. Awkward as it would he, 1 found myself obliged either to nive mv note lo Lucilla with mv own hand, or lo decide on shaking In her. after all. 1 could not prevail on mvself In nnciilc to her. So I went to her room with mv note, and knocked at the door. Here again there was no reply. J knocked once mora with the same result. I looked In. There was no one in the room. On the little table at the foot of the lied, there lay n letter addressed tome. Tho writing wan in .Utah's httnd. Hut I.ueilln had written her name in the corner. In the usual way, to hIk.w il(it Hie had dictnlcd her letter to her nurse. A load was II fled nil' my heart as 1 took It up. The same Idea ( I concluded) had oc-rurred to mo. Wic too had shrunk from the embarrassment of n personal explanation. Hho ton had wrllleii and was keening out of the way until ln-r letter had NHikim for her. and had united usngainaf friemU Iwfoir 1 hft the house. With these, nleasant an tici nations 1 0Hued the letter. Judge what 1 felt when 1 found what it really contained. "iHun Mamamk PiiATiiu xtio: You will agree with me that it is very important, after what I lerr U rosso has said about the recovery of my sight, that my visit to Kumsgatc should not be delayed. Ah you are unable, through circumstances which I sincerely regret, to accompany me to the sea-side, 1 havo determined to go to I London to my mint, Miss Hutch ford, and ask her to bo my companion instead of you. I have had experience enough of her sincere affection for me to be quite sum that she will gladly take charge of me ofl your hands. Ah no time is to be lost, 1 start for London without waiting for your return from your walk to wishyougood-by. You so thoroughly understand the necessity ofl uifljviiiiiH Him iiirriiiii iiirvneiiH, m custM -i: ...hi. r.... i ii . ni eniprgency, tliut 1 am sure you will not feel offended at my taking leave of ymi in this way.

Zillah goes wilii mo as far as London; anil J shull communicate with llerr tirossi when I arrive at my aunt's house." Hut for one sentence in it 1 should most awn i redly have answered this cruel letter by instantly resigning my situation ns Lurillu'H companion. The Mmtcnco to which I refer contained the wonls which cast in my teeth the excuses that I had made for (dear's absence. The sa nas lie reference to my recent connection with a case of emergency, and to my exoriciiee of tho necessity otliens-ing with formal farewells, removed my hist lingering doubts of Nugent 's treachery. I not only felt suspicion onlv. but nositivo conviction that he had communicated with her in his brothers nr. me. and that he had contrived (by some means by which it was imttosmlilc lor me to guess) so to work with Lucilla's mind ho to excite that indwelling distrust which her blindness had rooted in her character as to destroy her confidence In me for the time Wing Arriving at this conclusion, I could still feel compassionately and generously toward Lucilla. Far from blaming my XHir deluded sister-friend for her cruel deiiiirture and her vet cruder letter. I laid the whole fault on the shoulders of Nu gent. I1 ill I as mv mind wus of mv own troubles, 1 could still think of lite danger mat inreateiiefl Lucilln, and ot the wrong that Oscar had sulKred. 1 could still feel the old glow of my resolution to bring them together again, am) stilt rememlicr (ami determined lo pay) the debt I owed to Nugent OulKiurg. In the turn things had taken, ami with the short limo still at my disposal, what was I to do next? Assuming that Minn Hatch ford would accompany her niece to Hamsgate, how could I put the necessary obstacle in Nugenl's way, if he attempted to communicate with Lucilla at the sea- side, in my aliKciice? i ll was iniposHibte for me to decide (hi, I unless I lirht knew whether Miss Hatch- frd ns in Imt of the familv, was to Im? confidentially informed of the sad Hwition hi which Mcar ami i.ucina now stood toward each other. The person to consult in this dilliculty was the rector. As head of the household, and in my nhfcnce, the rcspoiHihili-ty evidently rested with I'evereud Finch, I went round at once to the nthorsidcof the house. If Mr. Finch had returned to the rectory, after the catecbi-ing was over, well and good. If not, I should k'ohliged to impure in the village, and seek him at the cottages of bis parishioners. Ilisinng-ni liecn t video relieved me from air anxiety on this head. The boom-boom which I had last heard in the church, I now heard again in the study. When 1 entered the room Mr. Finch was mi hi leu, highly excited, haranguing Mrs. Finch and the liuhy, ensconced as usual in n co.ncr. .My apjcarance on the scene diverted his llo'w of language, for the moment, so that it all poured itself out on my unlucky self. ( If vmi recollect that the rector and Lucilla's aunt had liecn, from time immemorial, on the worst of terms, you will lie prepared for what is coming. If yon have forgotten this, look back at my sixth chapter and refresh vour memory.) "The very person I wus going to cnd for!" said the 1'oiM'of I inichiirch. "IWt excite Mrs. Finch ! Ion't sMak to Mrs. Finch! Y'oii hall hear why directly. Address yourself exclusively io mo. He culm, Madame l'nitolungo! you don't know what has hapMned. I am here to tell you." I ventured to slop him, mentioning tlmt Lucilla's last letter had informed meof his daughter's suilileii departure for heraunl's house. Mr. Finch waved away my answer with his hand, ns something too infinitely unimportunt in Ik- Worthy of a moment's notice. "Yes! yes! yes!" he said. "You have n HUM'rliciul acquaintance with the facts. Hut you nrc far from Is'ing aware of what my daughter's sudden removal of herself from my roof n-allv means. Now don't ho frightened, Marl nine I'ratolmigo! and don't excite Mrs. Finch ! How are von, my dear? how is the child ? Hoth well. Thanks to an overruling Providence, Imth well. Now, Madame l'nitolungo, attend to this. My daughter's (light I say it advisedly; it if nothing less my daughter's lliiilit from my house means ( 1 entreat you to 1h calm) means ANoriir.n Iti.ow dealt at mo hy the family of my first wife, liealt nt me," repeated Mr. Finch, heating himself with the recollection of his old feud with the Hitchfords "dealt at me by Miss Hntchford (by Lucilla's mint, Madame I'ratolmigo), through my unoffending second wife and my innocent child. Are you sure you are well, my dear? are you mire the infant Is well ? Thank l'rovidcnov ! Concentrate vour attention, Madame I'ratolmigo! Your attention is wandering. Prompted by Miss Ha tch ford, my daughter has left my roof. Hamsgate is a mereexouse. And how has she left it? Not only without first seeing me I am nobody! but without showing the slightest sympathy for Mrs. Finch's maternal situation.
