Upon the threshold Ben Adhem struck an
attitude: '
"I shall now exploit for younefit the
ancient Chateau and present studio of Iles-
Amon, :You are expected to imbibe the
old:Chateau feeling, but will not be allowed
to Make sparkling remarks. We willhegin
modestly with the kitchen." -
'Our entrance into the kitchen was like
turning up an engraving after Ostade in a
portfolio. The light blazed in from a single
window, and struck in bare across an at
mosphere of smoke.. This smoke had its
origin in the antique fireplace, which was a
little cabinet of itself, •with stone seats for
wo persons, and an elaborate system of
hearths, ovens, jacks, the.: The apartment
was a complete family room, and according
as ydu turned yourself you were in the
kitchen or the bed-room. One wall repro-
muted the Bleeping chamber, being entirely
taken up with the monstrous Bretonbed-
Edead. Imagine yourself sleeping in an
upper shelf in a clothes preas—
that 113 to be a-bed in Brittany.
Thewindow Wald the dairy. One corner
was • a private oratory, with images'holy
water fountain, rosary, and colored'prints
of a mystical character. The aristocratic
feature of the room was the fibor, which was
gagged, instead of being the simple ground.
A bare-legged old woman was arranging
upon the lofty mantle-shelf her enormous
coppers, brilliant as the image of the aua in :
aldexican temple.
"That old woman is your hostess. She is
only famous for crying. One of our fellows
was painting this interior, and used to tip
her milk pan over every minute with his
apparatus; the window-sill is so uneven.
She always cried. He would pay her ertor-
Motes sums, whichshe accepted readily, still
crying eloquently, like a baby with a pin in
It. She cried when the cow ate the wheat
she had just winnowed; she cried when the
pig got his foot into the buckwheat batter;
she cried when the biggest branch of the
walnut tree came down in a storm. Her I
laments are executed with the energy yon
'Wsrill find in all her motions."
Across the hall was the salon. • My guide,
producing a bunch of strangely-wrought
keys,was just in the act of procuring ingress
when the pig, that had got his foot in the
batter, came driving through the passage
like a tempest, almost running us down.
His mania consisted in a dream that that
ancestral hall was his swill-trough, and he
worked up and down it with the velocity of
a piston, scorning to take the least notice of
the biped occupants. When we had repulsed
him with some of the farming implements
which were stored in the carved recesses,
we admitted ourselves, along with a dusty
ocolunan of unfamiliar light, into the rotting
Baton.
Its decorations were tarnished, its floor
turning into punk, an earthy atmosphere
had usurped its scented airs of festival. The
walls were • paneled, leaving large spaces
which were filled with canvasses, badly
painted in the taste of Louis XV. I cannot
describe the subjects of these huge gross de
signs, now dropping with their own proper
rottenness to the earth. Their plots recalled
the enchanted spider-web sung by Ovid,
"on which were delineated the crimes of the
gods;" and the foul painter, too little
skilled to give the desirable beauty
to, his Ledas and Bathing Dienes, had made
it np to them by dressing their hair in the
jeweled towers proper to Montespan and
Dubarry. The colors were nearly gone;
each canvas was a whisper, and each whis
per told of a sin. It was like a company of
desperately vicious people, hobnobbing over
heir wicked souvenirs in the moribund im
potence of old age. The room seemed satu
rated with guilt. The wicked old lord who
had killed the man seemed to be in the:sir
What a theatre for revels, and vices, and
shames, this sweet little château in the
lonely Breton, groves, a hundred posts from
Paris ! How they danced and reveled
among these pictured walls, the silken gen
tlemen, and the painted ladies whom their
cavaliers had snatched from Paris like
Europas and planted in this temple of ob
scurity! How the spinet used to twinkle,
and the wax to burn away in the hours of
early ' morning, while fogs 'felling lonely
from the sea would cloud the secret Olyrn-
pus ! How the little feet would, pat these
rotting boards; how they whispered between
the panels, in the embrasures of the win
dows, the warm -gallantries of the day;
while, wherever they looked, the conscious
walls would seem to put on ears, and under
stand and repeat their wildest thoughts!
"The last of the direct line," observed
Ben Adhem, "was old Mademoiselle Haut.'
mant. She died here last winter, about
seventy years old, all alone. Our landlady
nursed her. Her relatives were of distant
degrees, and were scattered in various pro
vincial towns. Hashish has seen the cos.
tomes the old witch had; there were magni
fteent family brocades and laces, which she •'
took a pride in showing to artists and,
travelers. I will take you now to the bed
room where she died; a love-affair, they say,
carried her off."
."A love affair!" I exclaiined. "Why
you said she was seventy?"
"Oh, yes, you see she was a French
woman. Her relatives disapprove& how
ever, and there was the dickens to pay. She
fought it out as long as she. was able, and
when her ammunition was exhausted, died
in revenge."
" From the central hall we entered the
tower, in which was accommodated the
principal staircase of the mansion. The
mason work was of that solid, primeval
Sort which seems to hold time at defiance.
When the great Sphynx bows 'her towery
head to the desert sand, I should expect to
see the fall of these circles 'of great flat
stones, these hollowed steps, which, even
when cracked and crumbled, retain their
first solidity unlinpaired.
A large chamber on the upper floor was
pointed out as that in which the long family
line had run itself out in the scraggy pet
nonef•poor, lovelorn Miss Haumant. •

*badly, 4 !.it is on this floor, just the other
side of the tower."
We stepped across the passage, where I
could imagine the unquiet feet of the hypo
chondriac wearing the cold atone over and
over again in the loriely nights. There, in
side a little vestibUle, we paused at a black
old door, and My friend knocked. Up to that
moment the silence we had been disturbing
was the'silenee of the Pyramids. Now, upon
our knack, there ; was developed a, sadden
chorus of every sort of male . volt*, roaring
through'the ancient stone passages, and even
Whirling down the spiral stairway to, asto
nish the.pig. We were bidden enter with a
sound I have often 'heard, and love well to
hectr—the warm; Interior " Come in I" of ar
tists laboring sway among their dreams in
the silent Sanctity of the studio.
The room was illuminated from the upper
part of a single, ample casement. This unity
of light, in giving effect to a chamber, is a
subject very little.attended to by architects,
though artists have long understood its
value. Thus managed, the apartment be
came at once a Rembrandt subject. Every
thing upon the corners and edges of . the
scene was confused in a transparent dim
ness, while a flood of burning, flowing silver
fell from on high upon the oentre of the floor,
and bathed a "girl who sat in the radiance
and seemed to spin.
Mona sits in the soft flame and seems to
spin. One light foot is pressed upon the
treadle, the pretty fingers of one hand are
gathered upon the peg that starts the wheel,
the distaff is thrust into the belt, while. her
face, as if attracted by something at the
window, looks off for the instant with mid
den surprise. In another moment the bril
liant, gray eyes will bend again to the spin
ning -wheel; the fingers of the right hand
will 'give it the proper impulse; the fingers
of the left will roll for it the;thread, coaxed
Out of the hoary top-knot of the distaff; the
alender foot will beat its even rhythm upon.
the floor, and the ankle, madelfor dancing,
Will turn to the pretty work as if it were the
ankle of Terpsio hors; and then, perhaps, as
the purring wheel goes round, Mona will
sing again her song, the song we heard be
neath her window, the hymn in praise of
labor, the "Puseau de Marguerite."
But the moment does not come. Mona's
four extremities are fixed. The wheel
never starts . The air of surprise lives in
her starry eyes. No thread comes from the
distaff. The bunch upon it is not its proper
chevelure, bit a wig. Mona is doing a
clever bit of acting. Mona is posing for the
painters.
Another girl sits there for company, knit
ting at an endless description of stocking
In a little half-circle around sit the artists,
our friends. One is planted upon an earthen
crock, inverted, and cushioned with a hand
ful of fern; another on the old ancestral
hearthstone; another is quite invisible,
having squatted between the two facing
window-seats; the column of light skips
him totally, as a thing of nought, and he is
'reduced to a mere voice of welcome as he
gives us the cheery "Come in."
"Come in, tabernacle!" (Ben Adhem:sports
a monstrous white umbrella at his land
scape work.) You too. Perhaps Mona
will be awed by ybur presence, and hold
still a minute. She has been talking scan
dal with Jacqueline till she was ready to
spring from the bench."
The graceful Bretonne, hearing her own
name, bridled her light-head and turned,her
bright eyes us-wards. We made a pair of
bows. The bend she executed in return
was absolutely courtly and graceful It
was not only graceful; it was stylish. It
would have succeeded at Compiegne. Mona
had: been born the thing we call a lady.
She looked, in her preposterous collir and
outrageous cap, like thi) sauciest belle of a
fancy ball.
"They have been laughing together over
the most horrid scandals. Hashish, you
know a little Celtic, wasn't it scandal?"
Hashish, a tall young man, :with slender
hands, and deep, burning, Arabian eye;
which he had kept hitherto glued to his
easel, looked up.
"Come, come, what was it?"
"Well, you may call it that. They were
talking about the girl on the bridge, who is
crying her eyes out of her head, you know,
because the courier is contemplating the
sewing-woman at Gourin. You've heard
all the story in our kitchen."
"Yes, but which side did they take.
Which were they laughing at?
"Oh, at the girl on the bridge. Mona sal .1
her face looked like a crêpe just beginning
to bake."

Robert Collins, a medical student. Collins
had been out on Thursday night at a, hotel

He met two men and engaged in card play
ing. A carriage ride was then proposed
and was assented to by Collins. After
riding for some time Coiling refused to go
further and the carriage was •stopped. As

panion asked him for his cane which was
banded over. Collins was then struck a
• violent blow on the head which rendered
him unconscious, and'' was robbed of his
overcoat, dressooat and pocket-book. He

party in the carriage. The accused was
held in $5,000 for a further hearing.
