‘And now wo'll have a cozy, comfortable | evening together,’ said my wile. *And—but | what's that, Irving ?

My wife started nervously asa sharp peal at the bell interruped our bricf interval of domestic quiet.

Vnly tho surgery bell, my dear. body wanting me, | suppose-’

And | went down stairs seeretly wondering to myself if, after all, ther» was such a wery wide difference between a galley slave and u country doctur.

The surgery door was wide open, ‘bat no- body Was there, and through the blin ling darkness without I eould discern the dark outline of a carriage, and w& man standing at the horse's head.

‘ Who's there ? what's wanting?’ I asked coming to the threshold, and instinctively buttoning up his overevat, I had hurriedly thrown op. .

“You are wanted, doctor,’ said the man, speaking indistinctly behind the muflling that surrounded his face.

‘Yes, but who wants me? what for?’

‘Law not at liberty te cell.’

1 had already entered the carriage, but | this suspicious answer inspired mo with dis gust. 1 made a step to descend but 1 was too vate, the yehicle was in motion.

‘It is quite unnecessary for you to alarm yoursel!, doctor,’ said aq: i t, measured voice ai my side. LBeueve me you are quiet sale, and I trust you will not feel any uneasiness when I tell you that you must be blind- folded.’

At the same moment a folded bandage was de‘tly slipped over my eyes.

‘ Hold?’ Lejaculated. <It strikes me that this is rather superduous, The might is dark as Erebus, aod you have uno lamp.’

* Possibly,’ returned the voice; ‘ but it is best to run po risks.’

And then ensued a silence of some ten or} fifteen minutes, while the carriage rolled | swiltly along,and the low measared breathing | of my unknown Companion kept time to my | uncomfortable thougits.

At length my companion spoke again, in the same soft undulated tones.

* Doctor, one more little precaution is ne- cessary—you promise never to divulge to human soul one word of this night's visit.’

T hesitated.

‘] cannot bind myself by any such covenant. Phe relations between physician aud paticnt are, of course, cuntideutial, bat—

The carriage paused abrutly here, and the door was swung open. At this same instant | something cold touched amy temples, it was. the muzzle of a pistol.

I r-co ‘ed in horror,

* You surely would not murder me ?* [ ex- claimed.

‘Your promise, Doctor?”

‘L promised!’ L gasped. recoiling onee more from the chilliag touch of the euld stec| | at my temple.

‘Very well, come.’

1 was led up a narrow walk, through | a dour-way, intou room. were the bandage | was suddenly taken from my eyes.

The spot was very tumiliar to me—a ruined | cottage, long since abandoned to decay, in | the heart of a dense, swampy wood. Low! the carriage had ever reached it | was at a! iu8s to know.

Upon ayile of straw, hurriedly thrown into a corner of the moaldering Huor, lay a prostrate figure, moaning at every breath. | iis face was concealed by a handkerchief, | and the blood was slowly dropping trom a| gunshot wound jist above the anklie—ae wound which had been elumsily dressed by some unskilful hand.

horse if yours was saddled, and I can walk, so there'll by no time lost.’

[ mechanically mounted the noble animal that stuod waiting for me, and rather glad of an opportunity to revolve in my mind the singular adventure that had befallen me dur- ing the evening.

Ifaddenleigh stood a littie back from the road, on a magnificent, kaoll, crowned with century old ghesnut trees and beeches, and f reached the broad stone steps in about half an hour by dint of rapid strides.

As | entered the vestibule, Colonel Uadlen whe had been pacing up and dowa the hall in a perfect aguny of impatience, came to moet ma.

‘Is that you, Dr. Miller? 1 thought you would never come. We're in a pretty state of confusion here. Burglars in the iouse— my wife's set of diamonda gone—nobody knows what else—bat old Ho; kina left his wanual apon one of them. They can t escape far. For yousee—

‘Yes, but Col. Hadden—’

* Oh, aye—I understand you—you want to see your patient? [t's lMopkin’s, the butler; he's got an ugly blow on the leftarm —afterwards my wife went herself to Dr. Magnard's—no offence, Miller, but he lives nearer than you—bat he was ont. She hae only just returned. I couldn't very well leave Hopkins—aud Mrs. Madden is sacha kind, good suul, she imsisted on guing herself to feteh Maynard—’

* But my dear sir —’

* Ah, tue! Come along to Hopkins’ room,’ 4

Hopkins the Butler, was as valuable as h « master and twice as circumstantial ; apd by the time I had set his broken forearm, I was pretty weil in possession of all the particulars of the attempted burgalary at Haddenleigh.

And think of my audaight patient, whose life had ebbed out on the pile of srraw, I felt & guiltiness as L listened to Culonel Madden's eager Conjectures us tu the whereabouts of the desperadocs who had fled.

‘Aud now, Doctor, youll take a glase of wine,’ said the hospital old goateman,usher- ing me into his library.

dt was brilliantly lighted and warm with the crimson glow of a genial fire, before which, in a singularly graceful attitade, sat a lady, wrapped in the gorgeous folds of an lodian shawl.

* My wife, Doctor. is Dr. Millar.’

We stool before one another in silenca. | could not speak, for I was looking into the startled, agonised eyes of tho womun who had knelt scarcely an hour ago by the dying touch in the desolate eottags—Colonel Had- den’s new Wile, of whose beauty | had beard 39 much.

The Cuvlonel talked on, bat I heard not a word that was said. I could not bat mar- vel at the wonderful seif-possession of the woman who smiled and looked grave, and said * yes’ and * no’ in the right place.

‘To be sure,’ the Colonel was saying, ast awoke intoa sort of consciousness of bis voice, * the loss of [sabel’s diamonds ie some- thing serious, but, of course, we shall re- cover them again. Ouly, my love, it was rather careless of you tu leave them on tho drawing room table.’

‘It was careless,’ replied Mrs. adden, eamly. * Doctor, you are not goins ? Col. you have forgotten that curious old book you wanted to show Dr. Millar.”

As the door closed behind the honest oli gentleman, Mrs. Madden glided up te me and placed her hand ov wine—it was the touch of un icicle.

‘ Dector, you have my secret—you suroly would not betray it.’

‘1 am pledged t» silence, madam,’ I retarn- ed, woldly ; ‘ bat this deeeit—’

‘itis not my fault, Doetor,’ wailed the woman. ‘It is my fate. How I endured it, [ [ scarcely know ; were I to pause and think I should go mad. The man who died t= \ight was imy son! Colonel Hadden kaows nothing of

The woman lifted the corner of the hand- | kerchief, and gazed into the ghastly face. It) was that of a young man of twenty-two, and whe had evidently been marvelluusly good looking.

‘Oh, Heaven! he is dead!”

Iler elear, agonizing voice was ringing in my ears as they lud me back into the dark- vess of the night. I felt a banknote pressed into my hand asl eutered the carriage once | imore. |

‘Doetor, you have done your best; it is not your fault that your cfforts have not been more suceessful. Remember you are pledged to seervey.’

‘Please alight here, sir,’ eaid the driver, ‘ you are not far from home.’

I obeyed, and stood listening in the middle of the road, while the noise of the carriage wheels died away, losing its distinctness in the shriek of the reatless winds. And the clork in the village tolled the hour of one.

Late as it was, however, my surgery waa atill opened and lighted up; the servant from Haddenleigh Hall had just ridden to the door.

SIMPLICITY A PROOF OF PERFECTION.

AN ARGUMENT ADDRESSED TO THE WORLD'S INTELLIGENCE,

The progress of a great discovery resembles the swelling of the tides ; @ mere ripple ou the surfaea at first, it gradually embraces a wider sweep, and is felt upon the shores of distant continents, Five and twenty years age Thomas Holloway was but little known; many bad faith in his genius, and predicted for him a mighty future, Te-dapege may search through all lands and conten, kingdoms, empires, and republics, and fail to find a spot, however remote, or a people, howeve «a. vage, where the faune of that self-same Thomas Holioway is not a household word at every heartp a theme of grateful praise on every tongue,

The very simplicity of his system is a proof of its perfection While others busied themselves to no purpose about the diagnostics of particular forms of malady, Thomas Holloway divided the family of disease into the two essential branches of external and internal ailments. For these ive

jhe devised two corresponding remedies ; aad in

his Pills and Ointment we lave now a condensa- tion of healing virtues, which, if applied in time, cau never tailte make # pertmeneat and rapid cure.

Sustained hy the approval of the wise and learned, encouraged and aided by the gratetul mindicenesr of many of the crowned heads of Europe, and prompted by bis own enlightenest and comprehensive plilanthrophy, he has estab- lished a xystem of agency fer these medicines which embraces every portion of the inhabited globe. He has brought howe the means of heaith to the doors of all tribes and gations of the earth; and if we neglect to profit by these remedies, it wust heneeforth be ourselves, and not Providence we should blame fur the evils under which we groan. Proffesser Holloway has done all and inure than all, his duty ; he has placed bis exter- nal auil luternal reinedies in every country, and we have only to stretch out our Lands to them There is eternal wisdom in that Spanixh proverb that says, Ad gue madruga, Pros le ayuda, and the man whe docs net aid himself when certain aid is,withia his reach, has surely no right te expeet that a miracle will be wrenght
