'A month elapsed before Che pair returned to

Bu. in that month a strange change had taken
place in Grandison. tie scnntd restless, un

the light-hearted bachelor his dearest friends
had known, and-one and all foreswore matri

*lt waa not fong'ero Madam Rumor reported
tho startling fact that tho princely household
was carried on upon the European plan, and
tho lady and gentleman occupied separate
apartments, and only met at staled hours in
the great drawing-rooms below. Great was
the wonder of the “upper, ten ;” many the sur

I doubt if Alice saw tho struggle fn his mind.

and only awaiting tho arrival of her husband
who was to escort her. Thc.yvotu bod ohtmged

Her robe was of azure velvet—her coronetgtof

an - Empress, and right well did she Become
them. She was floras, fcnd touching ft -secret
spring in her private escritoire, she took from
n SR oil drawer two Vninfaturcs 'eased fa gold,
and (aid them side by side.
- One was that of her dead lover; (hcftt-irertrf
her husband. ' Xxanmg her hind upon her
hand, she gazed long and earnestly at tbc two,
and as her dark eyes dimmed with tears, she
could Vrot Vut itcknowltVlge the tflniddwy like- -
, ness that existed between the loved and Inc un
loved. It was a faint, and shadowy one, but
still it was no fancy. A something on the lip,
check and. brow—the same careless arrange
ment of the waving hair—and more limn nil,
the same earnest, loving intensity of look and
expression in Iho deep bluo eyes. This, never
seen before, was what now claimed her atten
tion to both. v
Tho small pcndulc over tho mantle-piece
struck tho hour of nine, and with a deep sigh
she replaced tho portraits ,in . the drawer, and
left tho ruotu. *Sho rang, on reaching tho
drawing-room, h) ask for her husband. There
was n bustle mid tire sound of many feet before
tho summons was answered, and then tho ser
vant who entered looked pale and frightened.
A strange, sickening sensation crept over ficr
asshc/fiskcd—
“Where is your master 1”
The servant stammered, hesitated, arid cast
strange looks towards the door. Dreading she
knew not what, she stepped into tho hall, and
looker! down the widcsfalrs. Four men were
ascending, bearing a motionless form between
them. The long 4mir hanging down towards

its living waters gushed out once more. Hut
