MADELINE.

It was in Brighton, about nine o'clock, on one of those cold, blustering evenings of storm and wind that generally usher in the month of November. The streets were almost de- serted, and the flickering gas, whose fismes were invaded by the searching blast, gave an unsteady and sickly ligit to the lonely theroughfure, as a tall, emaciated man, dressed ia worn and shabby habiliments, walked with trembling and unsteady steps down the broad footwey.

Oceasionally, from bodily weakness or the piercing blast that impeded his exhausted

port his weary body and his fainting pro- gression. At length, and after many pauses, the

largest mansion in the street, and as he clutched firmly the railings tu steady hix rapidly increasing debility, a faint smile of

eyes and hollow features of the sinking man

The next inetext the smile was succeeded by a livid euffusion of the faoe—his eyes closed, his hands relaxed their hold of the spikes, the knees doubled under, and the hody sank heavily on the pavement without sense or motion.

Almost at the same moment the deor of the mansion wes opened, and a gentleman in the prime of life, who was leaving the house, hastened down the steps, while the parish surgeon, Who had observed the man fall, came up, with a few passers-by, at the same time.

The figure, as it lay across the path, and was seen by the dim refl ction of the street lamp, and the fikckering lights of the do- mestics who had been summoned by their master, appeared ‘highly pre possessing.

The person of the unknown was tall and graceful, and dressed in « costume, thoagh worn and much soiled, which betrayed evi- lences of former taste and fashion; while the short, dark moustache formed a marked con- trast to the cold whitencss of hiscountenance and death-stillness of every feature. His high, smooth forehead and long wavy hair were saturated with the night fog, and gem- med with that clammy dew that is the ex- halation of exhaus‘ed nature.

** Pray, sir, make use of my house,’’ ob- served Lord Daymer, at whose door the grou was collected, and addressing Mr. Kightly, the parish surgeon, as he knelt to examine the condition of his patient; ‘‘my eervants shall carry the gentleman in, and pray adopt every meane that art or humanity can sug- gest to restore the unfortunate sufferer."’

The surgeon immediately embraced the humane proposition of Lord Daymer, and had the stranger conveyed to a warm bed, ind adopted all those remedial means that ‘xperience and the obecerity of the case seemed to call for.

Ha! I begin to understand it all’ exclaim- ed Mr. Rightly, suddenly, as he leant.over the bed. ** There is no effusion -here. my Lord; it is pure mental and bodily exhau- stion—evident starvation. Some wine there —quick !—brandy !—food!” and the surgeon administered with dispatch and judgement such sustenance as the new tiew of the case warranted.

Night came on, and the surgeon, in his solitary watch, sank into a deep slumber.

Presently a slight rustling was heerd ‘b>- hind the curteina, and without any action, of the haads, or a-itation of the clothes, the patient sat erect in bed, still and rigid as an awakened corpse.

With uw quiet motion of the head, the stranger gazed from side to side, and then, with a etealthy action slid quietly from the bed, his tall figure and sepulchral hue of features, as seen thiough the surrountiing ubscurity, giving @ ghastly and supernatural character to the-Teeuscitated man. Slowly Iraversing the apartment, he stopped ab- ruptly before the sleeping surgeon, and cun- templated the figure befure bim lor a moment with & vague and wondering stare, then raised his arm and placed his cold, death- like hand on Kightly's forehead.

‘Where ie Madeline?’ inquired the pa- tient, in a low and hollow whigner, that seemed to issue irum the chest without ve- lation.

* Good heavens’! how came you here, sir?’ cried Kightly, springing to his feet, and com- prehending the whole in a moment. You must go back to bed, sir, instantly.’

- Well, well, but tell me first avhere is

Madeline?’ replied the patient, im the same low, deep whisper. * What Madeline?—I know of no Made- line,’ resumed the surgeon, as he .compelled the mun te setarn te the bed. * Who ie it you man?’

* Who dol mean?’ rejoined the stranger, with sudden energy, the reaction cach instant hecoming more powerful ; * as if the world held two Madelines—ha, ha, ha! and he laughed derisively. ‘Why, [ want my wife;

her ?’

‘Well, [ will assist you ; but you must first give me all the information you can,’ obser- ved, Kightly, endeavoring to glean from the patient, some account of himself, while svoth- ing him with a vague prom'se. me, Mr. Brownlow, whut brought you to Brighton 7”

‘Brownlow! ha!ha! ha! very good. As if you did not know my name wus Raby ; Lieutenant Raby, of the Guards. Come, come, Jenkins, don’t pretend sueh nonsence.
