Rending, a few neeks since,One of De Quincey's
papers—" Three Memorable '.Murders,"—recalled'
IMing mind the strange cirministanees of'One of the
most tay.tferiu'ifs 'ddiheitie Ara nuts that. ever tax
ed the ingenuity of tuan,l - Or required the tight of
.
time to develop. .
I The locality of our story lies amid ono - of the
wildest and most picturesque regions of the Old
Dominion, where the head Wafers d'f the Rappa
( hannock wash the base of- the liltte Ridge.
I The precise spot-,--Crosslandis a sublime and
beautiful scene, where two forest-crowned ranges
of mountains cross tech other:at oblique angles.
1 At the intersecting 'Mint of these ridges nestles
a little hamlet, named, from its elevated position,
Altamon t.
At the period at which or Story Opens the four
I estates, in the four angles of the irregular moun-
I tain cross, were owned as foup, m ,
The eastern farm, called Phadmont, was ace life
property of Madame Aadol . lylii yirghdati lady of
the old school.
The western. and niest4gualite 'estate was the
inheritance of IluktoreXanitn'- orphan--heiress„
grand-daughter and Wrirdif44l4ame
The nothern and smallest one, dialed, from be
ing the deepest Vale of the fourdlawel Role—
was the property of old noel HaWe, a widower of
-
I gloomy temper, parsimonm.s habits, and almost
fabulous wealth.
I The southern foriii—named; froth the'extrava
gent cost of the.elegaiit mansion -house, elaborate
out-buildliAgs, and highly ornamented grounds,
which had absorbed the means of the late &Amer,
"Farquier's Folly"—was the heavenly mortgaged
patrimony of - GodfreS , Duhinie,the grand
sou of Hugh Rawe, anti now a young aspirant for'
legal honors at; the University of Virginia.
But little benefit to the heir was to be hoped
from the inheritance of his father's burthened
property. In the first place, old Hugh' Halve' had
bought up in his own name all the claims against
the estate of larquier's Folly—doubtlesS' to Pre
; vent a foreclosure, and to save the property fur
his grandson.
Bat, unhapVfy, 'Godfrey had mortally offended
the 'despotic old man by declining an agricultur
al life, and persisting in the study of is profession
I —a course that had resulted in his own disiniteri.
tance.
To make this punishment mere bitter to his
grandson, the Old man had taken into favor his
imPlieiv, Dr. Henry HaWe, whom he had. estab7
Belted near hinietlf Farquier's Folly.'
At this time; the disinherited heir, having fin
ished a term at the University; had come down to
spend a part of his vacation in his native
It was_ upon the Satnrday evening of rts arriv
al that he found the little hotel, and, .indeed, the
whole village of Altatuont, in
,a great state of ex
citement; from the:fact that the celebrated heir
ess, Miss Honore Paula, bad just etopped there,.
and passed through on: her way home.
Those who bad been so happy as to each e
glimpse of her face, vied with each other in praise
of her many charms, while those who had hot,
listened with.eagerness, and looked forward to in
detnnifying themselves,by seeing 'e'er at church
the nett Morning.
The next day,GodfreyDulanic attended church,
where he sa w and fell in love with the most beau
tiful and intellectual-looking girl be had ever be
held. Front the cheapness and simplicity of her
attire, he supposed her to he some poor dependent
of Madame Auderlytc, in Whose pew.she sat.—
Godfrey wasumunlctely captivated, and he resell--
ed at once to wooi and, if possible, win this love-
I being for his wire,-poor girl though she was.—
lie was glad she was poor, because she could for
that reason be-more easily won. But on accom
panying Mr.7.Pilloughby, the-Clergyman, and hie.
brother-in-law, Ernest Heine, home after church,
whq was his twonishinent and dismay at being
introduced to,,the supposed "poor girl," whom he
found.
to be:no other that the eelebieleti_MlSS
Honore Patile'; the greatest heireSs and :hen% as
well as the best and noblestgirl, in the State of
Virginia.' She greeted hint cordially, raid in a
few minutes the company were busily engaged in
conversation. The topic of„"eapital punishment"
having been started, Godfrey turned to Honors,
and said :
"I take an especial personal interest in having
capital punishment abolished—Mies Paulo, dt,you
believe in astrology ?"
Honors started, fixed her. eyes intently :upon
the questioner, and then Withdrakving them an
swered— ,
*b3 did you ask me if I likilieve in astro
logy?"
, -Beea'aSe, Miss Panic, I was about to relate for
your amusement a prediction that was made con
cerning myself, by a professor of that black art."
"A predietithr," iikelaimed Mrs. Willoughby
drawing near, with eager interest.
Yee madam," replied Mr. Dulanie
"a prediction which, if .I believed, would certain
ly dispose me to favor 'the abolishment of the
death penalty. Three years since, while

at that time creating quite a sensation in. the city
His wonderful reputation iras'the theme of every
tongue.
"Idleness and curiosity combined to lead too to
his rooms. Ile required a night to east my hero
'scope. He dethanded, and I ga.Vb him, the day.
and hour of my birth, and then I took leave,with
the promise to return in the morning. The next
day I went—"
"Well ?" questioned Honors, eat - neatly.
"My heiroseope WWI a lionnou-scope indeed ! It
predicted for me—a short and . stormy, life, and a
sharp and sudden death."
'Good Heaven ! But—the detuils?"
"It prophesied tour remarkable events; 11(0 first
of which has already come to pass." •
"And that was—?"
"The loss of my patrimenial estate?"
"Singular coincidence!" interrupted Mr: lYil
loughby, us he arose and joined his Wife and
brother-in:hal- at the other end of the room. '
"I thought so when the prophecy was fulfilled,"
replied Godfrey.
"And thvother three events ?" softly inquired
Honors.
"The other three events, if they follow ns pre
dicted must happen within the next two yews, or
before I reach my twenty-fifth nnniversnry.—The
first of these is to be tho unexpected inherit:thee
of vast wealth."
Upon hearing this, a bright sin ile played around
the lips of Honore, and biurishcd the clouds trout
her brow. tile waited a few minutes for him-to
proceed, but finding that he continued silent, she
said—,
"Well, Mr. Datanie, go on! what was the third
predicted event ?"
' "Do you command me to inform you?"
"No, sir; I bow ymi, of your courtesy, to do so."
"Very well," lie Enid, dropping his voice to a
low undertone, "It was to be my marriage with
the woman I should worship."
A deep vivid blush supplattttid the bright smile
that quivered over llonora's variable face. There
was a pause, broken at length by her voice,as she
gently inquired—
" And the fourth ?"
Tho answer came reluctantly, and in tones so
low as to moot only her ear..
"The fourth prediction was that before my twen
ty fifth birth-day I should perish on the scaffold."
A loii cry broke from the lips of honors as her
hoods flow up and covered her face. After:. min
ute or two she dropped them, and looking him
steadily ih the face, said with quiet firmness—
" You doubtioes wonder at may emotion. Now

When tea was over, the company adjourned to
the drawing-room, where, soon hiter the guests
invited for the evening join'id. them.
First came Father O'Lonherty, the parish priest
of St. Andrew's Church, at Crossland.
The next arrivals were Mr. and Mrs. Willough
by, and Mr. Hein.
Immediately after them came Dr. and Mrs.
Henry, llawe—the doctor,. a man of great fashion
and elegance, the lady, a delicate, pensive woman
with a sort otsad, moonlight face, beaming softly
out between her fleecy locks ofjet. . .
And, last of all, to the astoniahment of every
body, dine old Hugh ilitwe,y.bOliad been invit
ed as a matter of courtesy, and was-not in theleast
degree expected to make his appearance.
lie came not alone. On his ling he brought a
young girl, tin ivited, but whom, with grave.cour.
tesy, ho presented to his besteas as Agnes Darke,
the daughter of a deceased friend, and now his
ward, who ,heel arrived only that morning, and
Whom, presuming 'on Madam ,Auderly's well
known kindness, he had ventured to present to
her.
Madame Anderly, a. reader of fuees, was certain•
ly iittraeted towards her and, after a little talk,_
that confirmed her first fitvorable impressions,she.
leek the hand-of the orphan girl„aud conducted
her - . to the group former by the Misses Auderly,
Mr. Hilts,. Honora.Paulo.
Under the;attiiPieeS.:of'.MigaAnse AndorlY, they
werejust about fo : folin what shee - milled a Sybil's
'Circle', 'for. ivbich purpose; Messrs. Heine and
Sterile were dispatched to brini forward a round
table. lass Rose went to a cabinet to seek the
"Sybil's Leaves," which she prisently produced.
All then seated themselves around the table.
A dead silencereignek. Rose shelled the cards
three(' them with their frees down, and then,. ad
dressing her 'right hand neighbor, Mr. Sterile, in
a low voice, she deniantled:—.
What would yuu with the Sybil?"
"I Would know the future partner of 123 y life,"
Wl* the formal ausWer.

• The young man bositatedlor a while, smiled,
and rejecting all those cards that were nearest
himself; put his hand - wider the pack, and with:-

"Read he said, extending the card td the
Sybil.
"Ilear!" alfe exclaimed..

There was wgetererclappinwor hands andidnkfle.
of laughter. "
It Was now, Miss .7e7sie's turn to test her fate.
Being a young lady, she would not put the Epos
tidn in the usual form, but metre lyinquired what
should be her figure fate. The answer drawn
"it.dandle foals and thronioe sni4l bcor:'
a reply that nearly extinguished Miss 'Jessie for,
the craning. . . .
"I deeler - e, if here is not h ITV& T" ec
clamed the liVely Lily, as We, ota miser sauntered
deliberately to the table, and stood Woking with
indolent curiosi y upon the game -of the young
people. "Come,.Mr..flaVve .! I declared you hall
have your forte He told"!"-
"Well, well—the commands of young ladies are
not to be disobeyed," replied the old madgailan t
ly, as 'he extended his hand. and.drew a card,
which he passed to the Sybil.
Amid a, profound silence, and in a solemn voice
she read— •
•'Thy fate looms fon of horror! .From false friendr,
Near at bend, perdition threatens 'Weal—
A fearful sign stands in thyboase of Wed—
An enemy—a' fiend hirks close behind
The redinnee of thy planet.:—Oh, be warned."
f‘Pshew ! what serious mockery !" exclamed the
old man, scornfully, as' he turned away, and gare'
.place to his nephew, who had all the while been
posted behind him, peeping over his shoulder.,
"Will you permit me to test my fortune?" inquir
ed the "fascinating" Dr. utc:
•fAnd 'what would mOu With the Sybil?" was
the response.
"I-would know the future." "
"Dings.!' said thea tone of assumed
steinnesr. '
Smiling his gieatful but 'nest sin inter smile, the
doctor dreiv a card, _and passed it to the reader.
"Fleur!" said the latter, lifting the tablet of fate
and reading--
=, .14-now the !--thou fairest the soletnn night!
- With her piureiug stars and her deep winds' might:
There's a tome in her voice thou fain wouldat shun,
For it asks what the secret soul hath done!
And thou!—there's a weight on thine!—away!—
Back to thy home and pray. "
'Look ! I declare how pale the doctor has grown
exclamed the flippant Jessie: ‘ l ,one would really'
think to look at him, that deep remorse for
some enacted crime preyed on him."
"Nonsense! Juggloryr said tho latter; turning
away to conceal his agitation.
The eyes of Itonora Paulo folioived him with
the deepest interest--there was that upon his brow
that sho had never seen before.
The neat in turn was Agnes. Turning to her,
Rosa said.
"Whet seek you in the magieeirele, lady ?"
My destiny;" answered the luscious tones.
"In robe the knowledge!"
Agnes drew a tablet, and :pisSad it, as usual, to:
the Sybil, :who read—
"'Oh, ask 'no not to speck thy rate!
01i, teitilit me not to toll .
The deem shall' make thee desolate,. ._
She wrong thou mayst not quell !
Away! Away t—foe death evmdd be'

Agnes shuddered, and covered htr Thee with her
bands. - ' ,
'Put up the tablets'. they arc gib:iving fatal!"
said Rose.
"-Not Ibr Abe world !--now that each Whrd id
fate ! There is a cobble yet to be dispoie'd !
Mies Patilei draw near!" said Mr. 'lane.-
The . cheek of lionora Paule changed; yet. striv
ing with a feeling that she felt to be unworthy,-
she smiled; iMiched forth her hand, drew a tablet,
and passed it to the Sybil , who, in an effective
voice, read—
'"But haw is this ? A dream is on my soul!
I see a bride—all crowned with flowers; and smiling,
As In delighteu visions on the brink
Ufa droed chasm—and thou art she?'" .
Honors, heard in . Silence, remembering tho
strange corresmindence of tiltifib . ' lines, with the
prediction of the astrologer, made long
'go,
4,a,yoring to convince herself that it was mere
coincidence, and vainly , trying to subdue the fore
bodinl• of her heart. .
"Mr. Dulane I" said Dose; shuffling the tablets,
and passing thorn to him.
He drew a wird, and returned it - .o bs perused.
The took it, and thri.l of superstitious
terror shook her frame as She re%&.•• ,
