THE GOLDSMITH'S DAUGHTER. |

There stood a Goldeanith at the Fair,

By gems of precious water ; “The best of all the jewels there, My Helen is beyond compare—

My darling little daughter.”

A knight came to the entrance door ; ** Welcome, oh maiden fair!

Make me, oh man of golden ore!

The rarest wreath within thy store, For my beloved to wear.”

And when the bright and finished zone, Ali sparkling in its gladness, O’er Helen's slender arm was thrown— She gazed tipon each glittering stone In solitary sadness.

“Ah how supremely blest is she For whom these jewels shine!

Alas! if he but sent to me

One blossom of the orange-tree, What happiness were mine!

The knight came to the entrance door, And scanned the chaplet rare ;

“ Now make me, man of golden ore,

The choicest ring within thy store, For my betrothed to wear.”

And when the ring with diamonds Lright, All sparkling in its yladness, Was drawn on Helen’s finger slight— She gazed upon its glittering light In solitary sadness.

“ Ah! how supremely blest is she Who shalt this jewel wear!

Alas! how joyful should I be,

If the dear knight but sent to me One curling lock of hair.’’

The knight came through the entrance door, And seanned the ring so rare;

“ Thou hast, oh man of golden ore,

Brought forth the choicest of thy store For my betrethed to wear.

“ That I may judge their fitness—pray, Dear maiden ou thy brow,

Permit that I for once display

My well-beloved bride’s array— She is as fair as thou.’

It was the Sabbath of the Fair, And se the lovely maid,

With all a womau’s Sabbath care,

For purposes of praise and prayer,

Was in her best arrayed.

The maiden, blushing rosy red,

Before the knight did stand ; He wound the chaplet round her head— Endowed her with the ring, he said—

Then clasped her by the hand :

“Oh Helen! my sweet, my love! My secret stands betrayed: Thou art the bride—all brides above— Fér whom the goldeu wreath was wove, For whom the ring was made.

The wreath of many a costly stone ; The ring of costly gem— Consider them as symbols shown

* Died—is it not so?’ interrupted Mrs. Auliffe.

‘She died—yes,’ he said, looking appeal- ingly at the stern woman in black.

* You see, Mrs. Silverton,’ said Grace, with an almost diabolical smile, * These hus- bands very generally keep back z little chapter of their life’s romance even from the most cherished wife. May I consider myself engaged ?”

‘ Certainly —by all means,’ returned Sil- verton, eagerly. His wife looked at him with a surprised face.

‘ Had we better decide at once, Henry ?’

‘My dear,’ he replied, wiping the cold drops from his forehead, ‘ there is no use iu delay. Mrs.—Mrs. Auliffe will undoubt- edly manage our household to suit us.’

Alice did not question the matter further, but she was by no means satisfied.

‘What are you writing ?’ she asked, as she passed him half an hour later. He was bending over a table, hurriedly scribbling some words on the back of an old letter with his gold pencil.’

‘Only a business memorandum, dearest.’

But she did not see him drop the * busi- ness memorandum’ among the sable folds of Grace Auliffe’s dress, as she sat working be- ore the window. Perhaps if she had, the demon jealousy might have been aroused even in her gentle nature. Grace unfolded it quietly, as she leaned out of the window to look at the tangled China roses, and read these words, written in almost illegible cha- racters :

** Be at the foot of the pine glen at nine to-night. I must speak with you.”

Grace smiled to herself, and crushed the paper in her hand with a fierce joy.

At nine, Mrs. Silverton rose to lull her blue eyed baby to sleep with ber own cradle song, for no burse ever usurped that sweet offive from ber,

* You will come with me, Henry?’ she said coaxingly, ‘Harry always sleeps sooner when papa is by his side ?

* Not to-night, Avice!’ returned the bus- band, evasively. +I thiuk { shall take a cigar and a stroll in the moonlight.’

The young wother weat up staira a little disappointed.

‘Has Mrs. Auliffe retired so early ?’ she asked the purse.

‘I believe so, ma'm; anyway the light is out in her room,’ said the woman, somewhat s'iffy. She did nor greatly fancy the idea of a tousekeeper of Mis Aul:ffe’s superiority.

‘ By the way,’ said the latter, as be fina'ly rose to depart, ‘ did you not once tell me of a subtle poison you had distilled which left neither trace nor odor in its dead- ly path ? I was telling a friend of its pro- perties, and he laughed at what he termed the improbability of the thing.’

* Improbable!’ exclaimed Mortmain, * No more improbable than electricty, psychology or any other of the mervels of modera science.”

‘So I told the fellow. Suppose you give me a few grains of the drug. I might try it on a troublesome dog of mine, and thus at the same time rid myself of the pest, and convince him of the diseovery.’

Ralph Mortmain unlocked a drawer, and took out a small pearl box, from which he measured out two or three graius of a cu- rious, tho’ scentless blue powder.

‘LT think that will satisfy him,’ be said, drily, folding the drug in two or three pa- pers.

‘Is it enough ?”

‘To killa goat ora giant. There is more death in one of thoss atoms than a battery of guns could carry.’

‘Thank you. I will be very careful.’

And Silverton left the room, with cold drops standing on his brow.

The noonday sun ylowed in amber radiance over the gubles of Silverton Place, as he en- tered silently at the back door. Avoiding the more generally habited parts of the mansion, he stole softly towards the room that had been assigned to Grace Auliffe.

* She witi be below stairs at this time of day,’ he argued to himself,‘ keeping up a show of attention to her nomiual duties. The room will be unoccupied.’

He was right.

As he dropped the fatal grains into the cut-glass water-bottle on the stand, his hand ebook like a leaf. A faint blue tinge seemed to sparkle through the clear element and then it became as limp'd as before. Aud Henry Silverton, weighed down with the shadow of a great crime, and unutier- ably miserable, staggered from the room.

* Papa! papa!’

How joyously little Harry stretched out his dimpled bands, uttering the first words his baby lips had been taught to syllable. Mr. Silverton shrank from the child's blue eyes.

* He does not know that his father is murderer !° quivered through his mind.

His wife's light footstep crossed the hall,

a — GRACE AULIFFE’S SECRET. |

Tall and very pale, with ber hair prema- ; urely strewn with silver, and’ a face) seriously marked with the traces of that fell | ravayer, small-pox, Grace Auliffe’s appear- | ance was still more disfigured with a pair of gold spectacles. She was very thin, and | her closely compressed lips conveyed the | idea of a hard, cold nature. Truly, Mrs. | Auliffs was just the person to be assistant | matron of a junatic asylum.

Grace Auliffe was not mad, but sometimes when she looked on the harmless maniacs that surrounded her, she wondered tiat reason still retained its supremacy in the citadel of ber throbbing and burs:ing brain

As she louked over a morning journal, as had been her custom for years, suddenly e scarlet spot glowed like a coai of fire om ber pallid cheek—the paper dropped from her hand,only to be caught up again with feverish haste. There it was, in the list of arrivals | by some fureiga steame: —the name she had sought so long, so vainly !

‘Mr. and Mrs. Henry Silverton, nurse and child.”

‘So ke is married,’ she muttered between her teeth. ‘* Married to some Hnglish beau- ty with fair hair cnd blue eyes, | suppose. Really, | must endeavour to make the ac- quaintance of Mis. Henry Silverton.’

A momeut Jater she smiled, as a fiend | might smile, with the light of Pandemonium on its face, as her eye tell upon a brief pa- ragraph in the advertising columns,

‘A housekeeper for Silverton Place, eh ?’ she mused, setting her teeth closely together. ‘1 think the place might suit me !’

She rose from her seat, whiter than usual, out very calm, aud went up stairs to the) Superiutendent’s snug apartment, | from | which she soon alter emerged, with her | countenance fixed in grim determination ; | and Cedar Heights lost ii» Assistant Matron | that very bight.

The level shafts of sunshine were shiver- | ing into diamond atows among the glitter- | ‘ng cut glass aod silver on the dining-room table at Silverton Place, where the fair Kn- | giish wife sat, with her blue eyes gazing far out on the Sylvan landscape beyond the open French easements. |

‘What a lovely spot!’ ehe murmured. |

«QO, Henry, in your wildest and most splen- |

did descriptions of American scenery, you. uever told me how fair this Silverton was !’| * Do you like it, dearest ? He bent to press bis lips to her forehead, | with the lover-like devotion which two years of married life bad not yet banished. At that self same moment the door was opened | and the servant announced : * Mrs. Auliffe.’ Tall, dark and spectral, she advanced '

it most desirable for the utove class of Artisans, now so much wanted :n this little village into the 100m, and as her long shadow flut- | |tered past Alice Silverton, wite shrank as though a chill bad struck sick at heart. But remembering chamber revolving in his mind the various |

jaspects of his hideous bondage; and when | Be | moruing dawned, gray end cool, beyond

A Temperance Hall and Farmer’s Club will shortly be erected at Summer Hill. Close’ wosried—allow me to give you a glass of |

Mrs. Auliffe did indeed look pale, as her |

| with a contemptuous jeer.

She put up her rosy mouth to kiss bim, but he shronk away with a shudder.

‘ Why do you turn from me, Heury?" she asked reproachfully.

* Because | ama murderer !’ was the eu- swer he with difficulty suppressed,

* You are not angry with me, dearest ?’

* No love, no!" he groaned.

‘ By the way, [ have not seen the new house-keeper thie morning, Henry, I hope she is not sick, but c

The pale, seared face of the old butler peered through the half-open door.

* Grace !’

‘ Henry!

He grouud his teeth as he looked at her.

* Woman, what dreadful mystery is this ? Why do you come here to torture me—not | me alone, but ene whose innoeence and sweetness should be a shield from your evil arts.’

Grace smiled. ‘1 disturh your second | ed? edition of Eden, do 1? That is @ pity.! * Mary Benner — the under housemaid, But you see | bave sworn to be revenged,’ Mem ; and will be !" | *Well—what of her? Is she ill ?”
