CHAPTER XXXVII. (Continued. )
When she got off this coach, she began
‘to walk again, and take cheap rides in
carts, and get cheap meals, going on and ou without distinct purpose, yet strangely, yy some fascination, taking the way she had come, though she was determined not to go back to her own country. Perhaps
it was because she had fixed her mind on} ‘the graesy Warwickshire fields, with the | became greater every minute; it was almost ‘bushy tree-studded hedgerows that made a as if she were dead already, and she knew
hiding-place even in this leafless season. She went more slowly than she came, often getting over the stiles and sitting for hours under the hedgerows, looking before her with blank, beauitifal eyes ; fancying her- self at the edge of a hidden pool, low down, like that in the Scantlands ; wondering if it were very painful to be drowned, and if there would be anything worse after death than what she dreaded in life. Religious doctrines had taken no hold on Hetty’s mind; she was one of those numer- ous people who have had godfathers and godmothers, learned their catechism, been confirmed, and gone to church every Sunday, and yet for any practical result for strength in life, or trust in death, have never appropriated a single Christian idea or Christian feeling. You would misunder- stand her thoughts during these wretched days, if you imagined that they were in-
'tluenced either by religious hopes.
She chose to go to Stratford-on-Avon again, where she had gone before by mis- take; for she remembered some grassy fields on her former way toward it—fields among which she thought she might find just the sort of a pool she had in her mind. Yet she took care of her money still; she carried ler basket; death still seemed a long way off, and life was so strong in her ! She craved food and rest—she hastened toward them at the very moment she was picturing to herself the bank from which she would leap toward death. It was already five days sinca she had left Windsor, for she had wandered about, always avoiding speech or questioning looks; and recovering her air of proud self- dependence whenever she was under obser- vation, choosing her decent lodging at night, and dressing herself ueatly in the imornivg, and setting off on her way atead- ily, or remaining under shelter if it rained, as she had a happy life to cherizh.
And yet, even in her most self-conscious moments, the face was sadly different from that which had smiled at itself in the old speckled glass, or smiled at others when they glanced at it admiringly.
A hard and even fierce look had come in the eyes, though their lashes were as long as ever, and they had all their dark bright- ness. And the cheek was never dimpled with smilesnow. It was the same rounded, pouting, childish prettiness, but with all love and belief in love departed from it— the sadder for its beauty, like that wonder- ous Medusa-face, with the passionate, pas- sicnless lips.
At last she was among the fields she had been dreaming of, on the long, narrow pathway leading toward the wood! If there should be a pool in that wood! It would be better hidden than one in the fields. No, it was not a wood, only a wild brake, where there had once been gavel- pits, leaving mcunds and hollows studded with brushwood and small trees. She roamed up and down, thinking there was perhaps a pool in every hollow before she came to it, till her limbs were weary and she sat down to rest. The afternoon was far advanced, and the leaden sky was dark- ening, as if the sun was setting behind it. After alittle while Hetty started up again, feeling that darkness would soon come on ; and she must put off finding the pool till to- morrow, and make her way to some shelter for the night. She had quite lost her way in the fields, and might as well goin one direction as another, for aught she knew. She walked through field after field, and no village, no house in sight ; but there, at the corner of this pasture, there was a break in the hedges ; the land seemed to dip down a little, and two trees leaned toward each other across the opening. Hetty’s heart gave a great beat as she thought there must be a pool there. She walked toward it heavily over the tufted vrass, with pale lips and a sense of trem- bling ; it was as if a thing had come in spite of herself, instead of being the object of her search.
‘There it was, black under the darkening sky; no motion, no sound near. She sat down her basket, and then sank down on the graes, trembling. The pool had its wintery depth now ; by the time it got shallow, as she remembered the pools did at Hayslope, in the summer, no one could find out that it was her body. But then there was her baskei—she must hide that ‘oo ; she must throw it into the water— make it heavy with stones tirst, and then throw itin. She got up te look about for stones, and soon brought tive or six, which she laid down beside her basket, and then sat down again. There was no need to hurry—there was all the night to drown herself in.
She sat leaning her elbow on the basket. She was weary, hungry. There was some buns in her basket—three, which she had supplied herself with at the place where she had ate her dinner. She took them out now, and ate them eagerly, and then sat still again, looking at the pool. The sooth- ed sensation that came over her from the satisfaction of her hunger, and the fixed, dreamy attitude, brought on drowsiness, and presently her head sank down on her knees. She was fast asleep.
When she awoke it was deep night, and she felt chill. She was frightened at this darkness—frightened at the long night before her. If she could but throw herself into the water. No, not yet. She began to walk about that she might get warm again, as if she would have more resolution

warmth and the voices of home—the secure uprising and lying down—the familiar fields, the familiar people, the Sundays and holidays, with their simple joys of dress feasting—all the sweets of her young lite rushed before her now, and she seemed to be stretching her arms toward them across a great gulf. She set her teeth when she thought of Arthur ; she cursed him, without knowing what her cursing would do ; she wished he too might know desolation, and cold, and a life of shame that he dared not end by death.
| The horror of this cold, and darkness, ;and solutude—out of all human reach—
that she was dead, and longed to get back to life again. But no; she was alive still; she had not taken that dreadful leap. She ‘felt a strange contradictory wretchedness ‘and exultation; wretchedness, that she did | not dare to face death; exultation, that she |was still in life—that she might yet know ‘light and warm again. She walked back- ward and forward to warm hereelf, begin- pom to discern something of .the objects ‘around her, as her eyes become accustomed ito the night; the darker line of the hedge, ithe rapid motion of some living creature —perhaps a field-mouse—rushing acroes the | Brass. She no longer felt as if the dark- ness had hedged her in; she thought she could walk back across the field, and get over the stile; and then, in the very next field she thought she remembered there was a hovel of furze near asheepfold. If she could set into that hovel, she would be warmer; she could pass the night there, for that was what Alick did at Hayslope in lambing time. The thought of this hovel brought the energy of a new hope; she took up her basket and walked across the field, but it was some time before she got in the right direction for the stile. The exercise and the occupation cf finding the stile, were a stimulous to her, however, and lightened the horror of the darkness and solitude. There were sheep in the next field, and she started a group as she sas down her basket and got over the stile; and the sound of their movement comforted her, for it assured her that her impression was right; this was the field were she had seen tie hovel, for it was the field where sheep were.

The Teachers Grievance.
Six,—-At the last Civic Election the City Teachers gave their support to the gentle- men comprising the majority of the present City Council, in the hope that they (the teachers) would be more satisfactorily dealt with in the payment of their salaries, than they had been in the past. For a short time after the election, they were promptly paid. Yesterday, however, when the salaries for the month of March became payable, they were informed that they must wait until the 15th iust. for the amounts due. Thus the old grievance, which the present City Council was con- fidently expected to remedy, seems just as real and as great as ever. The teachers hope that when the attention of the Councillors is drawn in a proper spirit to this grievance, they will cheerfully rectify it at once, especially as they gain absolutely nothing by delay, and as prompt payment would save the teachers a considerable amount of inconvenience.
Yours very truly, TEACHER.

Salvador Invaded. (Special to New York Herald.)
La Lisertap, San Satvapor, via GaL veston, March 27, 1885.—The war which has been thought inevitable for some days past has already become an actuality. The forces of Honduras and those of San Salva- dor have already come into collision and several skirmishes have occurred. ‘The armies of Guatemala and Honduras are act- ing in harmony and are now confronting the forces of San Salvador. Active measures are being taken by San Salvador, Nicaragua and Costa Rica to protect them- selves against the revolutionary schemes of President Barries. On the 25th of the present month ab al- liance, defensive and offensive, was formally entered into by these three States, and arrangements were perfected for putting an effective force into the fied. San Salvador, whose territory is most threatened, takes the leading place in this alliance. She will put her whole army into the field. Nicaragua will provide 4,000 men and Costa Rica sends 1,000. Costa Rica at the same time contributes $100,000 toward the expenses of the war. President Zaldivar, of San Salvador, will assume the chief command of the allied forces. Presi- dent Cardenas, of Nicaragua. will be second in command, and General Soto, of Costa Rica, will probably take the third place.
