Meanwhile in the circle of the brothers
Ilaidck-lJehuliausen many a doubt had
stirred, aud mauy a discussion had arisen.
Opinions were divided in regard te the
event that had explained the deficit in the
whole inheritance ; they remained divided
and the doubts were net dissipated, when,
one day, the laconic announcement was
received that Hofrath Jtfarklitt had en
trusted his rights of heirship te the care
of his advocate, Counseller liergland.
His peculiar, abrupt style made a
deeper and mere durable itnpressieu thau
wtHUL have bqcu- the, case jcitU..the de.
strayed letter, in which, by the pathetic
sentence, "lam the son of my father,"
he indeed gave them te understand that
he was the one whom they were seeking,
but which also betrayed hew bitterly he
still felt the disappointment of his youth
ful hopes. It was very evident that he
was determined te avoid any approach te
the family that iu their pride of nobility
hail se long contemned him.
This was a matter of supreme indiffer
ence te the two younger Heir von Uai
ileks, but less se te the state counseller,
who, thteugh the effects of study aud in
tercourse with liberal men of his own
rank, had thrown off much of that pro
vincial crudcucss of aristocratic pride,
such as is found among country nobles and
military men of noble birth. . Duriug the
last week he had had opportunities of test
ing the family characteristics of the Hai
deks, aud he recognized the abrupt letter
of llefrath Marklin as an uncomfortable
declaration of his aversion te renew his
intercourse with his cousins.
This was quite agrccable te his brothers,
who felt no inclination te make up a qnar
rcl between the family and one of its un
loved descendants. What their sainted
undo had ordered when suffering under
thrslings of conscience must be carried
out, nothing else, a reconciliation was
net at all necessary. "Oswald is right,"
said Maximilian, " he is perfectly right in
net considering it necessary te held famil
iar friendly relations under existing cir
cumstances." "He will evidently never forget or for
give a grievance, connected with such re
sults," said Kune.
"Upen what could he found the antici
patien that friendly advances en his part
would be icciprocated in geed faith by
us?" again interrupted Max.
"Our family character offers, alas ! little
encouragement te such a step," returned
the state counseller; "we belong te
these who leek te their birth as the foun
dation of an illustrious position ; we would
uet hesitate te describe as parvenus, these
who have arrived at a higher rank by vir
tue of their personal merits. In the
the single interview I have had with
son of our Cousin Oswald, I recognize
well enough that he attaches net -the least
importance te feudalism, and that, in a
certain degree, he prefers his independence
as a citizen te any family patronage"
"I de net doubt that," said Kune.
smiling geed humercdly. "If I could I
would most willingly withdraw from my
business relations into the retirement
where, without favor, one might live as a
cipher."
" Why did yen net learn mere, my geed
Kune?" sneered Maximilian. "Yeu may
sce from the career of Couusin Oswald
that a man may become even a llefrath
without patronage."
"I hope te try my fortune in another
way," returned Kune, with droll solem
nity. " I have lately been accredited with
a talent for diplomacy."
"Then make it available in the case of our
heirship, my dear brother," said Jthc state
counseller, under the impulse of a sudden
thought, " make a journey te Nonncnberg,
seek te exert an iullucnce there, through
the exercise of your diplomatic talent.
Fer myself I am net sufficiently cold celd cold
beooded ; my sympathy with Ceusiu Os
wald might lead me te measures that
would possibly net be agreeable te you ;
that is net te be feared With you."
"Geed," broke in Maximilian, "let us
send Kune, and let us see what will result
from his conference with the Counseller
Uergland."
" I agree te your proposal," answere'd
the young man, " but only en condition
of beitur able te disown Cousin Oswald at
pleasure ; that is, I am net te be bound te
pay him a visit."
" That is understood." Yeu are at lib
erty te de, and te leave undone, whatever
you will," was Maximilian's decision.
" Provide me with instructions, but al
low me te modify these according te cir
cumstances. I will wager te unravel the
whole history in a few hours, and te bring
te the light of day, whether we are accus
ing aud following a phantom in the blend
gentleman, or a real living mortal." .
"Iude3d,I piomise myself important ad
vantages from your embassy," said Maxi
miliau, well pleased.
" Why net," said utite "counseller "if
Kune begins rightly? Skillful diplomats
often succeed in producing war, in spite of
all the signs of peace, and iu concluding
peace, in the face of threatening prepara
tions for war ; in this instance I would
gladly see sce latter result."
The matter being thus settled, Kune von
Haidek, within a few days, set out en his
journey te Nenncnbcrg, where he arrived
in due time.
The betrothal between the counseller
and Cletildc had been declared, and, in
accordance with the bridegroom's deci
sion, the wedding was shortly te fellow.
All remained as before, except that Elsie
took up her rcsifleuce in the house of bcr
future brother-in-law, until the blessing
of the church should have been pronounced
upon the engagement of her sister. Even
ing saw the two families united in the
modest home en Walleen street, where
concerts were held until the counseller's
arrival, when refreshments and conversa
tion followed. The llefrath appeared
livelier and mero friendly than usual ; a
change was gradually taking place in his
whole being, similar te the awakening
from a deep, heavy slumber. As a feun
tain chained by the frost of winter, begins
te flew and sparkle with the warm breath
of spring, se did hope spring te life in the
besom of the quiet taciturn man. Thus
far he had given no expression te the emo
tions of his soul ; the habit of long morose
silence still kept its curb upon his lips,
yet his reviving spirit manifested itself by
various signs, in themselves apparently
trilling, yet of deep significance in reality.
In the midst of these happy changes in
the family, another letter was receive:!
from Oswald, which announced the close
of his state-examination. It was a refresh
ing letter that the young assessor had
penned in an ebullition of youthful enthusi
asm. The clends that overhung his sky
of life had all disappeared. He should
bp able hereafter te pursue his career with
honor; the personal sympathy of the
minister had elevated him te a stand
point that satisfied every ambitious desire
et nis soul, and nad placed nis future in
a most hopeful light. Thi3 letter showed
the father for the first time, what a glow
ing spirit bad been held under the govern
ment of reason, only awaiting the proper
time, te step boldly forth and assert itself.
A proud emotion trembled through the
father's breast, for thus he would have
bad his son, te battle for and conquer
victory, te be eased in the armor of his
own intellect alone, te ewe te himself the
triumph of recognition and eminence. Ter
the first time, the llefrath shared with his
wife, the delight of gratified ambition, for
the first time he allowed this faithful com
panion of his life te perceive hew dearly
he loved his son en account of the honors
his indtistry and his exertions had prepared
for them. Then when the outward re
jeicings were ever, and euly the reflection
ei inward satisfaction, rested upon the
brews and Hashed from the eyes of the
happy couple, they began te think of pre
paring for the dinner with their futuie
son-in-law, Counseller Bergman.
Hcrr Kune von Haidek. as ambassador
ferthVfalfHrjnltrifearcerj' have chosen
a mero fertunate time for his journey te
Nonnenberg. Shortly after his arrival, he
prepared in high spirits, for a visit te
Counseller Rergland, chiefly however, te
present himself and ask for a conference.
Directed te the church-court, he found
himself, at midday before the line large
mansion, which hail been jminted out te
him as the residence of the wealthy advo
cate. Heir Kune en Haidek did net
linger lenr te observe the exterior of the
house, but hastened up the steps, and then
glanced round inquiringly. Naturally
the insci iptieu en the first deer in the
corridor, " ollice " met his eyes, but he
doubted, whether he ought te enter that
room, under existing circumstances.
He had little time for hesitation. A deer
was thrown open a faint scream with the
exclamation ' Oswald " made him turn
quickly toward the sound A charming
womanly form in a simple but becoming
house-dress appeared in the open deer, licnt
ierward aud glanced quickly into Ins face,
but iu visible perplexity.
"Parden me" shoadded,te her greeting
"a resemblance deceived me."
Kune gazed at the young lady with an
air of great astonishment. 1 ler fresh love
ly face, the peculiar glance of licr roguish
eyes, and the wonderful symmetry et her
lithe veuthful form, enchained his atten
tion. "Can I speak with Counseller Rergland."
he at length found words te say.
"He has uet yet returned home, but we
expect him every moment," returned
ELsbcth.
"May 1 ask permission te await his re
turn ?"
"Right willingly," replied the young
girl politely, stepped back, and gracefully
threw open the folding doers of the recep
tion room the saloon of the house and
with a gesture of invitation begged- the
gentleman te be seated.
During thus short space of time, Elsbeth
observed with much interest the appear
ance of the stranger she had at first mis
taken for her brother, and he, in turn, had
noticed with increasing astonishment the
splendor of this room, that through its ele
gant appointments had rendered se piquant
the charming simplicity in the toilette of
the beautiful girl.
As Ilerr Kune von Haidek knew neth
ing ei tne counsellers' relations, lie sup
posed te sce before him a daughter of the
house. But that illusion was quickly
dispelled, when the young girl, with a
naive grace, asked whether he wished te
confer with the counseller en business. In
that case she would advise him te return
again during the appointed business hours ;
"for," she added roguishly, " the coun ceun coun
seleor is net always amiable when, wearied
by professional duties, he is disturbed out
side of regular business hours."
Kune smiled, " I knew that, but you
will still allow me te wait, wheu I assuie
you that it is net simply business that
brings me here during the hours set apart
for visits, but the wish te facilitate and
hasten an affair between the counseller and
myself by personal representations."
At this moment Clotilde, attracted by
the sound of voices, stepped through an
open side deer. Kune. rose and gazed,
greatly struck, at this second noble wom
anly presence, who with her dark hair,
finely cut features, and tall slender form,
presented the ceuntcipart of Elsie. It
appeared te him as if an acquaintance
were coming te meet him, and yet he
could net recall where he had seen her.
Still, preserving his presence of mind, he
observed, "Have I, perhaps, the honor of
seeing the Lady Counseller ?"
"Ne, interfered Elsbeth, "only the
counseller's betrothed Fraulcin Cletildc
Marklin and I am Cletildc's sister."
"Marklin !" exclaimed Kune, stroking
his forehead in great discomposure; "Then
allow me, ladies, te introduce myself as
your cousin, Kune von Haidek."
A brilliant Hush dyed Cletildc's cheek,
but she bowed in silence. Elsbeth, how
ever, gave words te her surprise. "What?
a cousin t'what a wonderful chance !" she
exclaimed doubtingly.
" De net call it chance, that I came
hither," said Kune, with diplomatic craft.
"The intention of becoming acquainted
with the family Marklin, that has scorn
fully disowned us, led me te this visit, but
ignorant of circumstances I could net have
expected te find you here. I wished for
an accommodation of our affairs through
lUIIO.lll '41. .lit.
"That seems very sinj'iilar tonic." re
plied Elsbeth, pertly.
"O, no ! Yen will change your opinion
when you knew that your father has re
ferred us te the counseller."
" My father ?" repeated Cletildc, in ap
parent unbelief and reluctance te hear.
"Certainly," persisted Kune, "we re
ceived the first' information tha. he was
still living from a laconic notice, scut by
your father, that he would entrust the
regulation of his claims as co-heir with us
te Counseller Bergland. Are you uet
aware of that ?"
"We knew nothing whatever of a re
lationship with you," said Cletildc gently,
but decidedly.
" Really net I Your father showed him
self se inimically disposed ?"
" His experiences might have produced
in him such a frame of mind, for my father
is a peaceable, yet stern and just man,"
declared Cletildc.
" Then it is also unknown te you that
your father is the son of my Aunt Mcta,
born von Haidek ?"
' What !" exclaimed Elsbelh in amaze
ment, ' Your Annt Mcta was my grand
mother ?" The lively, almost passionate,
interest she felt in this news flashed se
visibly from the soul-speaking eyes of the
lovely girl that Kune ventured te beliove
that he might continue his revelation.
" Quiteright ; your giandmitfcr was
my father's sister, and if the pride and
felly of my father's eldest brother had net
broken the family tie between your father
and eurselvep,fhis walk in life might have
taken a very different direction. Yeu will
therefore be obliged te concede that nndcr
these circumstances I may permit myself
te greet yen lermaily as cousins.
Tn took nMiM'.nnm1.t;nn l,nn,1 n.l
raised it reverently te his lips. As he was
about te greet Elsbeth in the same man
ner the young girl suddenly hid her hands
behind her, saying drily. " O, pardon me!
I will net allow this kind of greeting -until
my father has permitted it. Ifhehashiarea-
sons for keeping us in ignorance of bis fam
ily relations it is te te presumed that these
reasons had weight and are net lightly" tip
I de set aside by nis children witaeut
further notice from himself. I, at least,
will stand by my father te my last drop of
bleed if injustice has been done him and
if this injustice should impel him te dis
own ceusmship with yen ! r or the rest
but I hear my father speaking outside ; he
seems te have met with the counseller en
the way. Shall I prepare him for whom
he will find here ?"
" Ne," said Kune, deeply touched by
the girl's speech, " I will introduce my
self te him. Be witness that no trace of
enmity has ever existed between us."
The sounds, that Elsbeth, with her
acuteness of hearing, had rightly divined
came nearer, and the voices of two men,
in warm discussion, made themselves, dis
tinctly audible. A few moments later they
entered the ante-room still se warmly en
gaged with the theme of their conversa
tion that they did net observe the stranger
in the reception room nntil.tlicv.stoed di
rectly Itefore himl
The Hefrathen, whe'had glided along
quiet and thoughtful beside the gentlemen
was the first te raise her eyes, and from
her lips also. escaped the word " Oswald ! ''
But she drew back when she had seen
Kune's face mero closely. Was net this a
proof that the family likeness which the
state counseller had already detected
could no longer be denied?
The counseller cast an inquiiing glance
at Clotilde ; she gave him her hand, and
signified by a gesture that, an important
crisis was at baud.
Kune hastened this liy his rash action.
He seized the He'fr.Uh's right hand, and
said bluntly, " In you I greet our cousin
Oswald, and I I am Kune von Haidek. "
The llefrath shrank back visibly ; hew
ever, he held the young man's baud, gaz
ing earnestly into his countenance. The
moment was come when his self-command
deserted him, when the icy crust of stoi
cism, that had se long increased his pain.
melted away forever. " Yeu are the little
Kune whom J taught; te spin his top? "
he said, with a grave tender smile, " you
are the Kune who loved dearly te ride en
my shoulders, whom I could net swing
high enough ? The years have changed
you have changed me. The years have
equalized much I will make peace with
you, for you were in no way te blame for
that which banished me from your circle
Let us bury the spectres ofthe past in this
reunion my geed Kune ! "
Strange that, for the llefrath, uone but
pleasant, seething memories, favorable
for reconciliation, were connected with
this scion of the Haidek family. Kune
himself felt strangely moved. He was
new ashamed of the indilfercnce he had
shown, when the tragical destiny of this
Cousin Oswald had been the topic. Dis
posed te greater cordiality by this repent
ance, he succeeded bravely in striking the
right chord when he replied te his Cousin
Oswald, and at the same time auneunccd
himself as a messenger of peace.
The counseller tee viewed this visit as
an important event, calculated te settle all
vexed questions that time might still
bring l forth. Especially did he desire te
sever the chain of suspicion that seemed
te rest upon Oswald Marklin's son.
The moment of reunion was, however,
net te be spent in explanations. Kune
left the house, with the premiso of re
turning en the morrow te held a regular
conference with the counseller, and with
the firm intention of becoming as inti
mate with the Marklin family, as bis stay
in Nenncnbnrg should render possible
The cheerful young man did net as yet
clearly comprehend what prompted this
intention ; when, at last, her recognized
the motive it was tee late. His interest
was powerfully excited and his heart in
flamed by Elsbeth's loveliness ; but he in
dulged little hope that his' wooing would
be favorably received. Therefore he con
cealed his love, cherishing it quietly, until
circumstances should take a favorable
turn.
He was admirably provided as business
agent, the whole realter of settling the in
heritance had licen delegated te him. The
Hofrath formally reneunccd'his right te
the Haidek family-mansion, which could
have offered him nene but sorrowful mem
ories ; but, for the sake of his children, he
agreed te accept an equal share of the gen
eral inheritance,, empowering his son
Oswald, who still remained in the capital,
te conclude all further arrangements.
Hitherto the deficit in the mass of the
inheritance had net been mentioned,
neither the letter found in the dress
pocket of the deceased Fran von Haidek.
Kune had, indeed, talked the matter ever
with the counseller, but he wanted cour
age te speak of it with the llefrath. The
counseller deliberated as te whether it
would be necessary again te disturb the
scarcely restored peace of the llefrath;
it was his firm conviction that nene ether
than Felix Marklin, the blend gentleman,
had carried out the imposition, insomuch
that the payment of the missing money,
had actually taken place. But alas ! there
were no proofs te offer, that he had re
ceived the packet, which the companion of
the deceased lady bad seen in the hands of
her mistress a few days previous te his
visit. Every thing, alas! that could lie
said iu review of this, was confined te sup
positions. The counseller had uet yet ventured te
bring these suspicions te the knowledge of
the courts, he had, se far, waited iu vain
for the return of the yenng mail, Felix
Marklin but, at length, he determined in
concert with Kune von Haidek te delay no
longer, but, by giving information, te im
pose upon the state prosecutor the duty of
collecting proofs that would bring home
the deed te its perpetrator. First of all,
the Hofrath was te be spared in this busi
ness. Kune undertook te bring the re
covered letter with him, en a later visit,
and te connect with it the development of
future measures. Kune had been in Non Nen
nenburg for a considerable time, spending
part of every day cither in the simple
home of the Hofrath, or in the b. attiful
parlors of the counseller with the famil y
of his cousin. When he returned home
te his brothers, he was quite another mau.
