I did not boo nil ot th'n tho nigM of my arrival in sooth, it was so dark that 1 could distinguish vory liltiu as the dog cart span up tho avenue; but 1 did notice tho black mass on my left as wo turned a very sharp oorner o block of building, and on my right, a sullen roar as if angy waters boilod over in a torrent to dash upon rocks in tho dark depth, tar, tar below. Tho noxl momont wo drew up be foro tho door, barred and studded with groat iron nails. Light was pouring I tho girl I deeply loved and had scon mars ac- tho norfeot natural and human cxnres- companied by vivid descriptions nnd sion of tho room and tho people, chat- voluminous crop icports, aro oxcolleut ting pleasantly, with too clear lamp- meumms lor awnKoning ino interest oi light full upon their familiar faces, so- homo Bookers in a now country, and bered mv excited sense, I began to feel theso supplemented, by opportunities that I had come very near making my- placed within tho reach of all for visit- solf supremoly ridiculous. What I saw tng tho country at a season when ox or rathor what 1 now oeuovoa i nan net uemonBtrii'ion can ua mauo ni us fancied I Baw was ono of those merit, givo convincing evnfonoe oi tho strange optical illusions, born of men- fact that tho North-Wcstcrn Company tal oxaltatioD, and taking as is usually has eulnccrtt taith In tho regions travel tho case, a most uno"xpeotod and ed by its lines, to extend unusual frcil Unfamiliar form. I had boen car ried away by tho music by tho nresonco and oloso sympathy of from tho hall, and tho laird stood in tho doorway surrounded by a howling bodveuard of terriers. "Whist, dogs 1 Como in, laddio 1" And my old friend gathered mo in to his ancestral hall with highland bos nitalitv. We passed up a low stair way, and across a thickly carpeted corridor furnished with strange pieces of antique workmanship frowning cabinets nnd carved ohairs from which uncanny faces leered in tho firelight ThO drawing room was at the far end and there wcro again two or three steps loading to it alcove. By tho sido of these Bteps and against the wall stood a hne old press ot marquotne, quainuy inlaid and used, as I afterward learned for tho stowing away of odds and ends, of nothing and all things. It was heio that my viol' i soon found a place, and I laid it, in its modern embroidered case, by tho sido of a quaint old lute about which was twisted a faded, moth eaten ribbon. "This," said tho laird's pretty daugh ter, touching it reverently, "has a his tory. Wo keep it here pretty as it is because nono of us liko to look on it" But all this belongs elsewhere in my story. Report had not exaggerated the charms of tho old laird's daughters Four of them he had tho youngest. a charming child tho eldest, already appropriated But there remained the adorable second and tho exquUite third, and after a day ot painful un certainty I fell beforo Cho first of theso two, who was called by tho tuneful name of jslavis, and who bad a musi cal fever akin to my own. Together wo trilled and tummcd and turned leaves and played lovo songs and mad rigals, serenades and sonatas, and when wo did not play we talked mu sic, and when wo did not talk music, wo talked ah well! suftico it to say that tho days hurried by and the weeks flow after them and I had been a guest at Ghairleo nigh on to a cond month, and my heart belonged to JUavis. Tho cream of shooting was over and tho party much diminished. Uno or two men only remained besido myself, and a pretty young woman a neigh' bor of tho laird's who had como for a two weeks' visit. Wo were gathered in tho drawing room and somebody asked for music. I went out to tho fire lighted hall to the old cabinet to my violin, and mavis went with me. Wo lingered there, alone, for a mo ment lust for tho sako of lingering.. It was then Mavis spoke about the Into. I took it in my bands and, as I did so, a thin, faraway wail of melody seomed to sweep past us and lose it bcU in the dimness boyond tho glow of tho firelight. "What was that T'' I asked sharply. Thon, seeing that Mavis only trembled in reply, I added quiokly: "I must have jarrod tho old thing." "JL'ut it. down, said Mavis, "it is nncanny. Wo never touch it.

I shuddered trom head to loot. Then I pulled myself togt-thor again and thankful that my return to tho drawing-room bad been unobserved. I dctormined to depart as quietly as l Had come. This 1 tnanagod success fully, and lighting a oandio this time at tho head of the staircase, I entered tho passago loading to my room and reached it in my usual prosaic manner, iMthougu now thoroughly convinced that 1 had been tho victim or a tempo rary hallucination, i lelt bv no means comfortable. My now accomplishment was by no moans an agreeable ono, and my nerves wero bauiy snaken. "Fool 1 1 apostrophized rayseit po litely, and glad, after all, that 1 had not absolutely appeared one in tho oyes of Mavis and her family, I began lo undress. First, however, I soarohed my sleeping and dressing rooms thoroughly and found them quite free from tho presence of ray ill looking friend of the passage. Tho dressing room was a queer llttlo place one of tho few rooms of tho tower that had stood tho ravages of timo and tho only ono in the houso that had not been, from laird to laird, added to and im proved upon. It was curious enough, and some of its old worm eaten oak had stood since tho oarliest days of Ghairleo. I went to bod and vory soon, it seemod to me, I fell asleep.

Then tho dismal howling of adog came to me, as if from tho adjoining room and yet it bad a smothered sound as if, although near me, its howls worn being stilled. Suddenly this sound ceased, and then oamo a stealthy, creeping sound, and 1 saw a crouching hgure against my wall-tho same hgure, the Same ovil face now turned Btra'ght toward me. the same murderous expression all, as it had, just as suddenly, appear ed in the hall And tho room was in porlect dark ness. But though the man continued to gaze straight into ray oyes bo moved trom, not toward, me slowly and steal thily until he reached the door leading into tho dressing room, and through this he disappeared.

I rushed after him and would havo thrwn myself upon him in another instant, had not something rooted mo to the thresh old powerless.

There was nover a doeent bluided Highland body without a ghaist in his castle! You must intro duco mo some day to yours!" And so, laughing and toasing hor to bring baok tho roses to her cheeks, if, indeod I could, I led her again to the drawing room, whero a merry crowd and an hour or two of my beloved musio with my dear violin soon chased the Ghaist o' Ghairleo from my thoughts. My rooms wero in tho tower in thatsamo black pilo of stone round whioh I swopt on tho evening of my arrival, and my windows looked out over tho torront which roared its way coaslessly from rock to rook to a shud deling depth, and then toro on in a dark Bullon stream.

A smaller passago led away from it, and my room opened in to this passago now in profound dark ness. There wero candle sticks on tho table at the head of the flight of steps, uui, auer i iouna out mo way to my rooms nnd had grown accustomed to it, I rarely stopped to lHit ono. To night I mado no exoeption to my cus tom, and went swinging down tbo pas sago towards ray tioor.
