"It is clear, and you could not do

"It is rmqe," said Frederick bold-
"Disguised,'' observed Mr. Arm
strong. "A poor plot but worthy 'of
the inventor. I will keep the xotej if
you will allow me, Laura." ?
"I have no further use for it. I can
go now, can I not ? Will you please
see me to the street door ?"
"Certainly. But first let me intro
duce you to a friend of mine, Mr.
Richard Barton, who has just arrived
from the Antipodes, and brings with
him the freshness, of a new. world.
Barton, you will be proud of the in
troduction when I tell you that I have
sever known a lady whom I esteem
more highly." j
Laura gave the American a look of
gratitude. His words were well ctio-
sen, and comforted her inexpressibly.
Richard's face had grown brighter) at
the explanation of Laura's presence.
"I had the pleasure," said Richard,
as he bowed to Laura, "of seeidg ybu
last night." , 1
"You were in the theater ?" asked
Laura.
"Yes," he replied, softly.
Air. Armstrong had a purpose iin
introducing Laura and Richard to
each olher at this apparently inopp(jr
tune time. He "saw that Frederick
Chappell could scarcely control lis
passion, and he wished to avoid jan
pen quarrell. The introduction
served to divert Richard's and Laura's
attention from the young banker. Mr.
Aruistrong stepped to Frederick's side
and gazed. eteadily into his face.
"If you have anything, to say," said
Mr. Armstrong, "It will;be as welljto
speak low so that they shall hot

"I 6hall please myself as to that re

But she turned her face from him
and refused his offered arm. j
During Frederick's last appeal to
Laura, another actor appeared upon
the scene. Rigby, the old hall-porter
of the great firm of Chappell, Chap
pell and Chapell.had entered the room
unobserbed. The cruel blow which
had fallen on the old man in his youth
had stamped on his " manner -certain
characteristics which it was too late
to hope could ever be effaced. Every
movement bespoke the humbleness
Lwhich springs from the conricttcn

he never looked into the face of the
person whom he addressed If, by
inadvertance he raised his eyes, he
quickly down, as though he had been
guilty of an action that might be rea
sonably resented. And yet in his
youth he had been noted for manli
ness of character, when, however, the
blow fell, and people marked him as
the brother of a felon he accepted his
position and yielded wiihout a mur
mer.: But as he entered the room
now there was upon his features the
same singular expression of j mingled
triumph and shame, pride and humil
iation, which they had worn when he,
had solicited an interview with the
head of the firm a couple of hours
since. It expressed a struggle to lift
himself out of the depth into which
he had been plunged. I
He had expected to find the banker
alone in the room, and whenjhe heard
Frederick's voice he would j have re
treated in as silent a manner as he
entered, had he not by chance seen
the figures of Laura and Mr: Arm
strong. Then he stood as though
rooted to the spot. j
"Come, Laura," said Mr. Arm
strong,, "we will go." But Frederick
was between them. "You seem to
forget, Mr. Chappell, that the lady
has asked for mj escort."
"And I have offered her mine."
"Which she refuses. Be careful,

Fredeiick Chappell's ftf-ediction that

large, of a rather Avortlilcss character,
and that it may be considered, open
to question Avhethcr the population
taken as a Avliole is fit as yet for the
performance of political duties. Sena

of the forty-sixth parallel of north lat

Dakota has a struggling, floating and
