CHAPTER VI. (Continued. )
| Heart-broken,
‘Seaton dragged himself down to the harbor ‘and went slowly on board the ‘Shannon’ to | secure Miss Rolleston every comfort.
| ‘Then, sick at heart as he was, he made inguiries into the condition of the vessel which was to be trusted with so precious a | freight; and the old boatman who was row- {ing him, hearing him making those in- 'quiries, told him he himself was always about, and had noticed the ‘Shannon's’ ; pumps were going every blessed night.
| Seaton carried this intelligence directly to Lloyd’s agent ; he overhauled the ship and ordered her into the graving dock for repairs.
Then Seaton, for White & Co., wrote to Miss Rolleston that. the ‘Shannon’ was not seaworthy, and could not sail for a month at the least.
The lady simply acknowledged Messrs. communication, and Seaton breathed again.
Wardlaw had made Miss Rolleston pro- | mise him faithfully to sail that month in _his ship, the ‘Shannon.’ Now, she wasa ‘slave to her word, and conetant of purpose; , 80 when she found she could not sail in the
‘Shannon,’ she called again on Messrs. | White, and took her passage in the ‘Pro- ‘serpine.’ The essential thing to her mind | was to sail when she had promised, and to go in a ship belonging to her lover.
The ‘‘Proserpine” was to sail in ten days. | Seaton inguired into the state of the
‘*Proserpine.” She was a good sound vessel, and there was no excuse for detain- | ing her.
Then he wrestled long and hard with the ‘selfish part of his great love. Instead of jturming sullen, he set himself to carrying ‘out Helen Rolleston’s will. He went on | board the ‘‘Prosergine,” and chose her the | best stern-cabin.
General Roallesten had ordered Helen’s cabin to be furnished, and the agent had | put in the usual things, such as a standing | bedstead, with drawers beneath, chest of ‘drawers, small table, two chairs, wash.
~
stand, looking-glass, and swinging-lamp. But Seaton made seyeral visits to the ‘ship, and effected the following arrange- | mente at his own cost, He provided a neat ‘cocoa mat for her cabin deck, for comfort
and foothold; he unshipped the regular

T is a fact worth knowing that Mrs. Sophia Potter’s Bone Rheumatic Liniment cannot be excelled for removing pain and soreness. It is no wortkIsss trash, as seme may suppose, simply because they have been imposed upon by others, but is positively the ‘‘King of Pain.” Sore throat cannot stand before its power,

‘each of the windows; all so arranged as to be easily removed in case it should be necessary to ship dead-lights in heavy
‘weather. He glazed the door leading to her bath-room and quarter-gallery ‘with plate glass; he provided a light easy-chair, slung and fitted
with grommets, to be hung on hooks screwed into the beams inthe midship of ‘the cabin. Qn this Helen could sit and ‘read, and so become insensible to the mo- tion of the ship. He fitted a small book- case with a button, which could be raised _when a book might be wanted; he fixed a strike-tell in her maid’s cabin, communicat- ing with twostrikers in Helen's cabin; he selected books, taking care that the voyages ‘and travels were prosperous owes. No ‘‘Seamen’s Recorder,” *‘ Life-boat Journal,” or ‘Shipwrecks and disasters in the British Navy.” | Her cabin was the after-cabin one on the _starboatd side, was entered through the ‘euddy, had a door communicating with the ‘quarter-gallery, two stern windows, and a |dead-eye on deck. The maid’s cabin was the port after-cabin, doors opened into euddy and quarter-gallery. And a fine trouble Miss Rolleston had to get a maid | to accompany her; but at last a young 'woman offered to go for high wages, de- imurely suppressing the fact that she had , just married one of the sailors, and would ‘gladly have gone for nothing. Her ‘name was Jane Holt, and her husband's, | Michael Donovan.
In one of Seaton’s visits to the ‘‘Proser- pine,” he detected the mate and captain talking together and looking at him with unfriendly eyes—scowling at him would hardly be too strong a word.
However, he was in no state of mind to care much how two animals in blue jackets received his acts of self-martyrdom. He was there to do the last kind offices ef despairing love for the angel that had crossed his dark path and illumined it for a moment, to leave it now forever.
At last the fatal evening came—her last in Sydney.
Then Seaton's fortitude, sustained no longer by the feverish stimulus of doing kindly acta for her, began to give way, and he desponded deeply.
At nine in the evening he crept upon General Rolleston’s lawn, where he had first seen her. He sat down in sullen despair, upon the very spot.
Then he came nearer to the house. There was a lamp in the dining-room; he looked in and saw her.
She was seated at her father’s knee, look- ing at him fondly; her hand was in his; the tears were in their eyes; she had no mother; he no son; they loved one another devoted- ly. This, their tender gesture, and their sad silence, spoke volumes to any one who had known sorrow. Poor Seaton sat down on the dewy grass outside, and wept be- cause she was weeping.
Her father sent her to bed early. Seaton watched as he had often done before till her light went out; and then he flung him- self on the wet grass and stared at the sky in utter misery.
The mind is often clearest in the middle of the night; and all of a sudden he saw, as if written in the sky, that che was going to England expressly to marry Arthur Wardlaw.
At this revelation he started up, stung with hate as well as love, and his tortured mind rebelled furiously. He repeated his vow that this should never be; and soon a scheme came intu his head to prevent it;

| but it was a project so wild and dangerous,
that, even as his heated brain hatched it, his cooler judginent said: “Ply, madman, |fly! or this love witl destroy you?
He listened to the voice of reason, and in another minute he was out of the pre- misease He fluttered to bis lodgings.
When he got there he could not go in; jhe turned and fluttered about the streets, ‘not knowing or caring whither; his mind was in a whirl; and, what with his bod fever and his botling heart, passion began to overpower reason, that had held out so gallantly till now. He found himself at the harbor, staring with wild and bloodshot eyes at tie ‘‘ Proserpine,” he who, an hour ago, had seen that he had but one thing to do—try and forget young Wardlaw’s bride, He groaned aloud, and ran wildly back into the town, He hurried up and down one narrow street, raging inwardly, like some wild beast in its den.
By. and by his mood ehanged,and he hung around a Jamp-post, and sell to moan- ing and lamenting his hard fate, and hers.
A policeman came up, took him for a maudlin drunkard, and half advised, half admonished him to go home.
At that he gave asort of fierce, despair- ing snarl, and raninto the next street, to be alone,
In the street he found a shop open and lighted, though it was about five o'clock in the morning. It was a barber's, whose customers were working people. Harr- CUTTING, SIXPENCE. MASY SHAVING, THREE- PENCE. Hor CorFFER, FOURPENCE THE CUP. Seaton’s eyes: fell upon this shop. He looked at it fixedly a moment from the opposite side of the way, and then hurried on.
He turned suddenly and came back. He crossed the road and entered the shop. The
barber was leaning over the stove, removing a can of boiling water from the fire to the hob. He
turned at the sound of Seaton’s step, and revealed an ugly countenance, rendered sinister by a equint.
Seaton dropped into a chair and said: « ‘Ll want my beard taken off.’
The man looked at him, @ it could be called looking ut him, and said dryly:
‘Oh, do ye? How much am I to have for that job /’
‘You know your own charge.’
‘Of course I do; threepence a chin.’ ‘Very well; be quick then.’
‘Stop a bit; that is my charge to working- folk, Must have something more off you.’ ‘Very well, my man, I'll pay you double.’ ‘My price to you is ten shillings.’
‘Why, what is that for? asked Seaton, in some alarm; he thought in his confusion, the man must have read his heart.
‘Tl tell ye why,’ said the squinting barber. ‘No, I won't; I'll show ye.’ He brought a small mirror and suddenly clap- ped it before Seaton's eyes. Seaton started at his own imege; wild, ghastly, and eyes 80 bloodshot. The barber chuckled. This start was an exorted compliment to his own sagacity. ‘Now, wasn't I right?’ said he. ‘Did I ought to take the beard off such a mug as that—for less than ten shillings !’ ‘1 see,’ groaned Seaton; you think I have committed some crime. One man sees me weeping with misery; he calls me a drunk- ard; another sees me pale with the anguish of my breaking heart; he calls me a felon. May God's curse light on him and you and all mankind !’
‘All right,’ said the squinting barber, apathetically; ‘my price is ten bob, whether or no,’
‘Seaton felt in his pockets,
‘Ihave not got the money about me,’ said he, :
‘Oh, i'm uot particular;. leave - your watch.’
Seaton handed the squinting vampire hie watch without another word, and iet his head fail upon his breast.
The barber cut his beard close with the scissors, and made trivial remarks from time to time, but received no reply.
At last, extortion having put him in good humor, he said:
‘Don’t be so down-hearted, my lad. You are not the first that has got into trouble, and had to chauge faces.’
Seaton vouchsafed no reply.
The barber shaved him clean, and was astonished at the change, and congratulated him.
‘Nobody will ever know you,’ said he; ‘and I’j] tell you why; your mouth, it is in- clined to turn up a little. Now, a mous- tache, it bends down, and that alters such a mouth as yours entirely. But, Ill tell you what, taking off this beard shows me some- thing; you are a gentleman! Make it a sovereign, sir.’
Seaton staggered out of the place without a word.
‘Suiky, eh? muttered the barber. He gathered up some of the long hair he had cut off Seaton’s chin with the scissors, ad- mired it, and put it away in paper.
While thus employed, a regular customer looked in for his cup of coffee, It was the policeman who had taken Seaton for a con- vivial soul.
