He was is simple peasant, and Dezelouz had enlisted in hie service the two strongest feelings of his nature, fear and superstition. He had sworn by the Virgin, and his life was forfeited if he failed. Nevertheless, the remembrance of much kindness received from his master made him unwilling to accomplish the treach ery required of him; and it would be hard to say how his indecision might . have terminated, had be slot, when within the park, cast a .glance behind him, and distinguished, as he thought, by the faint light of the stars, a figure dogging his steps. This was too much for the nerves of Cadet, causing him, as it did, ft, foresee the possibility of punishment immediately following the non-execution of the orders he had re ceived. After passing through the gate, therefore, be al:owed it to awing bee, ily to, but did not lock it.— The heavy oaken door of the h ouse was opened to him by the valet, who again carefully lockedend barred it. Cadet, although not particularly brave, and a good deal embarrassed by the oath lie bad taken, was without a share of Gaston astuteness; and it occu not to him. as he mounted thestairs, that although he htad sworn to leave the doors open, he had not sworn tq keep his master in ignorance of his so doing. tlpo Ending himself in the presence of the baron. be te r lated to him, as laconically as his terror and concur sion would allow, the advetkre he had had ttp. on the road and the promise assorted from him Dezelouz. "Have you obeyed his orders?" inquired MunsieVF d'F.stivel, when his servant had done speaking. "Have you left the doors oper"' "The g•ite is open," replied Cadet; "the house door 1 I was to watch an opportunity of opening." "You shall du so," said the baron, coolly; "but fi desire Dubois to put light in the picture geller e rsr y, and send the women here. Fetch me a coil 4 rop thitt i you will and with the fishing nets. And quick, there is no time to lase " Cadet left the room, ep and doyen which the baron pa- 1 ced two or three times, apparently musing on what be I had to do. The most natural course to adopt, under 1 sect] circumstances, would have been to have kept the doors firmly barricaded, and trust to their strength as ! a defence against the robbers, while a few shourfired ° fom the windows might have assisted to repel or, a t any rate, would have alarmed the neighborhood l and brought assistance. But Monsieur d'Estival wait l a man of great courage and coolness; and not c with merely protecting hie dwelling from*, expecteontent I attack, he had formed e plan by which be thought it probable he might bring rthout the capture or extermi ' nation of Dezelouz and his band. Hurrying to the chamber in which his two children were sleeping, he awoke them, and bid them dress immediately. The sa tonisbed children obeyed and accompanied their father to his sitting-room, in which the servants were by this time assembled. The baron desired them to follow him, and, taking up a candle, led the way to the room that went by the nerpe of the picture gallery. This was the apartment upon the second fiber, that had been long used solely for the purpose which its name indicated, but of late years had been converted into a sort of state chamber, reserved for tiny guests of unusual importeoce wk.o might honor the chateau with 1 i their presence. A few pictures the size of life, repre senting hooped and farthingaled dames, mailed knight* andizrnined magistrates of the house of d'Estival, still - de - Coseted the walls; and a spacious bed of Spanish mahogany, with old-fashioned brocade hangings, stood upon one side of the apartment, the windows of which looked out to the hack of the chateen. A pair ofdeer's antlers, the auska of a wild hoar of Unusual size, and some other trophies of the chase, were suspended, a bove the lofty mantel-piece, and in a corner, was pla ced a carved and inlaid cabinet, in which the bit pt' was accustomed to keep his fowling pieces, powder horns, and othershooting apparatus. When Monsieur d'Estiva I had collected his childre, and domestics in the apartment, he turned to his groom and ordered him to go down stairs and open Use door of the house. Cadet stared, but obeyed ,the command in silence. While he was gone, the baron closed the room door and drew a bolt, but upon hearing Cadet reascending the stairs alone, he reopened it and ad : mined him. He then locked and barred the door, which was of considerable thickness, with strong hing 7 es and numerous fastenings on the inner side, and drew two or three heavy pieces of furniture against it as an additional security for its not beingforeed open. This done, he carefully masked the liens, opened one of the windows: and looked out. All was quiet with out. nothing appeared to bestirring among the trees and bushes that grew Giese up the wall s of th e ch a t eau , but the night was dark and it was impossible to see - to any distance. "Cadet," said the banan, who was occupied Ink ing a noose at one end of the long rope. The groom approached Ws rr,aste,r, who spoke a few words to him in a low tone; and then hung the Feel • out of the window. * Cadet got upon the window -fig and passing his legs throught the noose, seated him self upon it, grasping the rope above his bead with both hands, while Monsieur d'Estival . and his valeit Dubois, an old soldier, who had been long in his ser vice. lowered away gradually till the cessation of the strain warned them tHat the groom bad reached the group. The rope was then drawn in, and the win. dow closed, the lights were unmasked for a minute or two, and then finally extinguished, and all was silencer and darkness in the apartment.
