a spreading beech tree, in the gar-
irhed to Caldeoott Hall, which was
ofj their ancestral abode. His lord

became passive under this threat, and
tu lareo lustrous eyes were hxed upon
ppeariug to fathom the secret depths of
nermost recesses of her soul.
y Carisbrook began to be afraid of this
but after bis familiarity that evening
wavs avoided a conversation with him.
w days afterward Lord Curisbrook and
-harles ivanaer were out shooting
ler near the confines of the estate. By
hide was the main road, and they sat
upon a bank to rest while the keepers
d out a slight repast they had brought
Ithem.
ldonly the noise of horses galloping
ly alon the road fell upon their ears;
this was mingled the clatter of wheels
Khe cries of women, apparently in a
ful states of alarm.
Sir Charles Evandor was up in a moment,
looking eagorly along the highway.
1'rrHcntly he behold a carringo drawn by
two fiory horses, over which the torrifled
coachman had lost all control, descending a
hill at a rapid pace. Ho was just able to por
ed ve that two Initios occupied the carriage,
and then, without a moment's hesitation, ho
raised his gun and shot one of the horsos
dead, thus bringing the carriage to a stand
still. It turned out that the lady occupants
of the carriage More MrB. St. Aubyn and her
daughter Lily, who were at once conducted to
Caldecott Hall by Evander and Lord Cans
brook. When they reached Caldecott Hall, the
Mushing girl who was hanging on Evander's
arm at once attracted Lady Carisbrook's
notice.
A pang shot through her heart.
"What," she exclaimed to herself, "ami
jealous ? Oh, it is absolutely necessary for
my pace of mind that that man should leave
this house."
The plftasant party at Caldeoott Hall was
soon broken up. The St. Aubyns returned to
town, and Sir Charles Evander growing tired
of the country and its amusements, made his
excuse to Lord and Lady Carisbrook, and also
sought the gay metropolis. Her ladyship felt
very dull and miserable when the young
baronet took his departure.
She longed also to go to town, and soon
made her husband acquainted with hor
wishes. He was so satisfied with his country
home and the sports he there enjoyed that he
combatted the resolution; but in the end she
gained her point. Caldecott was shut np, and
the servants sent to town, to a house which
his lordship's agent had taken for them, in a
fashionable part of the West End. It was in
Wilton Crescent, and they were not far from
Hans Place, where the St. Aubyns resided.
Her ladyship did not much care about
them, because she fancied that Sir Charlos
Evander paid the lovely Lily too much atten
tion; but she was obliged to keep on friendly
terms with them, because they were invitod
everywhere, and she would meet them at all
good houses.
Sir Charles was soon made aware of Lady
Carisbrook's presence in town, and ho
laughed in his sleeve, for ho knew enough of
women and their characters to understand that
as he had gone away from her, she had fol
1 owed him. t
The gentleman whom Lady Carisbrook mot,
and to whom she talked about Sir Charles,
did not give Evander the lest possible
character. There were two friends of his,
Captain Vavasour and Mr. Frederick Mor
daunt, the latter of whom was constantly at
the St. Aubyns', and at all places where he
thought he should meet Lily, and this con
duct of bis was not at all surprising, for he
loved her passionately, though she had not in
any marked measure encouraged the prefer
ence ho exhibited for her.
Mr. Mordaunt had taken a strong dislike to
Sir Charles Evander ever Bince he first met
him at Hans l'lace. The attitude which the
latter assumed towards Lily convinced the
jealous mind of the lover that he was in love
with her, and that she did not object to his
admiration. Mordaunt's affection for her was
so sincere that if he could not win her him
self, he wished to see her married to one who
would insure her happiness, and this he felt
certain Sir Charles would not do. He could
say nothing to either Lily or her mother, be
cause they would acouse him of an interested
motive in vilifying a man he had treated as
his friend.
To Lady Carisbrook, however, he was not
so reticent. He told her his opinion of the
baronet, though there was no tinge of acri
mony or malice in what he said. He spoke
his mind f reoly, with the air of one who was
fearless of the consequences and knew that
he was uttering the truth. Lady Carisbrook
had invited this confidence on the part of Mr.
Mordaunt and Captain Vavasour, but when
she had gained it she was displeased with
them for running down one whom she liked,
and one occasion said, with some asperity:
"If Sir Charles Evander is such as you des
cribe him to be, I wonder that you associate
with him."
"For my part," replied Mr. Mordaunt, "I
can answer that x have lor some time ceased
to do so. I am coldly civil whenever we
meet, and he must know that I do not class
him among the number of my friends. "
'That must be a great deprivation for Sir
Charles, Mr. Mordaunt," said her ladyship.
"But I hope to meet you in a more forgiving
humor at Mrs. St. Aubyn's reception to
morrow evening. I shall be clad to see you
both there, as I have bo few friends in town.
Carisbrook leaves London for a week to
morrow morning, to se after his poor dogs
and horses, about whom he frets so much."
The party given by Mrs. St. Aubyn, to
which her ladyship had alluded, was merely a
reception, visitors dropped in as they liked,
went from group to group, chatting first with
one, then with another, and took their do
parture, when it pleased them, without any
ceremony. .
Lady Carisbrook made her appearance
about ten o clock, superbly dressed, and al
most the first person she met on entering,
after having spoken to her amiable hostess,
was Sir Charles Evander, whom she thought
had never looked handsomer.
"This is kind of you," he exclaimed.
"There is no one worth speaking to here,
and I was getting awfully bored. May I in
quire where Carisbrook lsf
"Did you not know that he had loft town?"
she replied, showing her pearly teeth and
fluttering her fan. "I am quite alone,
do not know what I shall do with myself."
"I am acquainted with married women.
answered Sir Charles, twisting his moustache,
"who would not consider such an occurrence
a calamity. They would glad of a little relief
from the presence of their lord and master.
"That is charming," said Lady Carisbrook.
eagerly. "You will tell me what those ladies
did, will you not t Tlease do take compas
sion npon and tell me.
"With the greatest pleasure, rejoined bir
Charles Evander. "I must premise, how
ever, that my ladies were not of the senti
mental order. They did not look upon hus
bands generally as an unqualified good, and
they enjoyed their freedom by Buch innocent
little amusements as giving dinner parties to
an intimate friend or friends. I have had
such an invitation myself; a box at the theatre
has diversified the proceedings."
"Excellent," , exclaimed Lady Carisbrook,
"I nm sure that I cannot do better than follow
such a capital example. Will you favor me
with your company at my house to dinner to
morrow at 7, Sir Charles '("
"I shall be most happy," he said. '
Lily St. Aubvu came up. and they were
separated; but Lady Carisbrook had made the
engagement, calculating upon her husband's
absence, without meaning any harm, though
she ought to have known that it was wrong
to do anything which she could not tell his
lordship.
The greater part of the day was passod by
her in buying flowers in Covent garden, and
making preparations for a charming little
dinner, such as would at once display her
taste and the resources of her establishment.
In the afternoon nho went to her bod-room I
to lay down and rest for an hour. She wa '
tired. It hnd been quite late when she loft
Mrs. St. Aubyn's, and not used to such hours,
she found it difficult to recover from the
fatigue which they occasioned.
To her surprise she was disturbed, as sho
was about to cIoho her eyes for a refreshing
sleep, by a knocking at the door.
"It is only I, Emily," said a voico, which
she recognized instantly.
"Good gracious, my husband! What
brings him back? Can he suRpoct?" sho
began, when her speculations wore out short
by the entrance of Lord Carisbrook, who
caught hor in his arms and kissed hor ten
derly, and cried:
"Hero I am again, doarest, sooner thau
you expected. Ah, what is this? You do
not seem so pleased to see me as I thought
you would be.
lou inghten me. 1 was naif asleep, and
my nerves aro a little weak. 1 was at Mrs.
St. Aubyn's last niiht till late," she answered.
rubbing her eyes, and sitting on the odgo of
the bed, wrappod as she was in the capacious
folds of a pink drossing-gown. "But what
brought you away from Caldecott in such a
hurry i
A relative of mine who mado a fortune
in India, became eccentric, and lived in Lon
don under another name is dead, died yes
terday, in fact, and his solicitor has written
to me to nay that he has left me the greater
portion of his wealth."
"I here is nothing very interesting about
that," her ladyship said, "we have as much
money as we want already. Is that all that has
brought you up in such a hurry ? As for me,
l would not have gone across the street for
such news."
"You have very strange ideas," replied Lord
Carisbrook, with a tone of disappointment.
"iou were sorry at seeing me, and now you
don't care for the legacy.
"I do like people to bo exact and con
sistent. Your return has destroyed my pro
jects of independence for a week. I was
going out to dinner to-night, and
"What is to prevent you i interrupted
Carisbrook. "I havo engaged myself to the
solicitor, and shall very likely stay late talking
over matters with him. I shall not be home
till twelve certainly, so you can go where you
like without paying tho slightest attention
to me."
Imprinting- another kiss upon her lips, Lord
Carisbrook took his departure, called a cab,
drove to his club, and told his friends of his
good fortune, and ordered dinner.
Iter ladyship determined to be brave, and
receive Sir Charles Evander, though prudenco
dictated the adoption of a very dm er out
course.
It happened that Sir Charles was more con
siderate. He belonged to the same club as
Lord Carisbrook, and met him there in the
afternoon.
"How do?" he said. "I thought you' a
hundred miles away in the country."
At Caldecott, replied his lordship. "I
have only just returned. Business brought
me back. It was a great pity. I nevor saw
finer woathor for shooting."
Sir Charles went to the writing-room, and
wrote a letter to Emily, in which he said that
ho hod met her husband, and hoped she
would, under the circumstances, excuse him
for breaking his engagement, as ho had no
wish to meet Carisbrook, and he sincerely
trusted that this evening alone was only a
pleasure deferred.
In the hall he did not see Carisbrook, who
was putting on his hat, and he said to the
porter distinctly in his lordship's hearing:
"Give this letter to a commissionaire, and
let him take it to Lady Carisbrook's, Wilton
Crescent."
These words fell like a thunderbolt upon
his lordship, who, half-stupefied, watched Sir
Charles re-enter the club. He was himself
going for a stroll round St. James' Square, in
which his club was situated, to get an appetite
for dinner, and changing his mind, he put
down his hat, and extending his hand to the
porter, said:
"Give me that letter; it's for my wife, and
I can deliver it, Most probably Sir Charles
Evander did not see me, or he would have
asked me to take charge of it."
The porter did as he was requested; and
Lord Carisbrook, fuming like an angry lion,
went upstairs to the smoking-room to read
the letter at his leisure, unobserved and unin
terrupted. Its contents astounded him. They, indeed,
were calculated to throw suspicion upon the
conduct of any woman, and if a man had'
plunged a knife into his heart, he would not
have felt more exquisite pain than he did in
reading this compromising letter of Sir
Charles Evander's.
"This is terrible!" he muttered, wiping the
perspiration, which had gathered on his brow
in great drops, away with his hand. "No
wonder Emily was not anxious to see me.
This is how she enjoys her independence.
But the affair cannot rest here. It was, in
deed, an unlucky day for me when Sir Charles
Evander crossed the threshold. Bitterly
shall he repent his treachery. I must kill
that man, or he shall kill me. The continu
