Two years passed—how or where it is
unnecessary to state—and late one even
ing I was sat down from the stage
coach within a mile of the town of Hay
field; and within eight of the mansion
of Mr. Morton. I did not crave to be
borne thither. I rather wished that
Hater should remain in ignorance of my
arrival till my appearance before her-
I would enter the grounds unpercaive&
She might be walking in the shrubbery
of the garden with her thoughts dwell
ing upon me. She might be within the
house; if so, I would steal in' and sud
denly confront her. I would, at least,
present myself before her' ere many
minutes could elapse, and the reflection
inspired me with the extremest joy.
I hurried on; I stood before the man
sion; all within was dark and silent as
the grave. A trembling fear seized me,
and I approached nearer—to the very
door. Still there was no sign of, life
about the place, and everything wore a
deserted appessance. My heart throbb
ed violently at the emotions which arose
within me, and the direct forebodings
of evil tilled my mind.
What could this Mean ? I had re:
caked no news from home during my
entire absence, and was ,consequently
unable to form an idea to account for
what I saw. Could anything have hap
pened ? 'Had sickness or death entered i
that household ? And Hato—where
was she ? I cried aloud in the bitter
ness of my splrit. I could endure this
uncertainty no longer. I would know
of the worst at once. I milted toward
the door of the building and knocked
loudly. A hollow echo only answered.
I !wicked again lender than before;
still there was no'response from within.
I grasped the latch and strove to enter.
The door was fast; -1 endeavored in my
fury of alarm, to burst it open, but it
yielded not. and I at length desisted
from the attempt in despair.
My mind gradually became calmer.
Some great misfortune had ,evertalup

that Kate was dead haunted -my magi:

and I paned through.: . '
'I will visit her owe owti room—l know it

through the dark hall. 4 .T withstand fin

had so often slept the sweet sleep of in

I ascended the stairs , and puled along
till I reached the room she had former

light stole in through the` window, and
, I, anr-thili the room wa s erupt*, tbs. the
rest. I could have wept at the feeling
of desolation which overcome my heart.
A fear momentsl paused thus, and then
'sadly. turned ' away to leave the spot,
when my-actions were suddenly arrest
ed at hearing a footstep lapel the
graveled walk without. , The peculiarity
of my,,poidtion arose before me in &mo
ment, and I would have fled; but just
then a hand was upon the latch of the
front &ler, a key was inserted in
.the
look and a moment after some one en.
Wrest— reenid not now make my exit
without being discovered, and I 'drew
back in the most shadowy 'part of the
room and awaited in silence what was
to follow. A feeding of ouriosity;!. also,
was excited, within. Ime to know what
brought any oncilat such an hour to visit
so lonely a place. ' '1 .
A moment , of. deep silence ensued,
and then I heard inoiss, as something
scratching upon the wall, after which
the pertion, whoever he was, Corameno
ed ascending the Airs. A gleam of
light soon entered the apartment, and I
knew then= held a lighted lamp. The
steps, came nearertaed nearer; they
sounded along the pawns, e which led to
the room l occupied l Could it be that
my presence there was known ? Bat,
In c
no; he wised on and entered th e
adjo' ' g apartment beyond.
Ara of light streamed through a
crack al beside me, and I perceiied
thatca, tier , widish was now aliOtly
ajar; -,. conu;unicated between the,4wo 1
rooms.. - I cautiously peer 4 throne'. 1
The' dom wasoccupied by an old table 1
and two or three broken chairs. :•The I
lamp Was resting upon the table; and
the man war drawing a seat beside it.
My eyes fell upon his features, and lii
knew Lim at once; it was Kate's uncle,
the only brother of her father. He was
a merchant in the village of H0yt:1.3111,4s
1 grasping, avaricious man, and one whom
1 I bad ever looked upon with disbnet.
Hy first impulse waste make rapidf
known, and /earn. at once, al..,,kif ia
my hiirscr-weer; tio-- ,- Isiiiatraisinlylr -m
-ewed to me that he could be there for
no honest purpose, and I determinedto
wait, and learn, if possible, what
brought him thither.
He seated himself besid'e the table,
leaned his arm thereon, and for many
minutes appeared- buried in pro
thought. At length he started, dte
his watch from his pocket, and glanced'
at its face, while a.frowu overspread his
features. -
'Why does he not come ?' be uttered
aloud, 'it is nearly ten o'clock, and I am'
not fond of waiting, especially in such a
dreary place as this,' he added, as he
gave a half frightened. glance - around
the apartment. 'He should have been
here punctually at the time—ah I there
he is now.'
The hall•door below was again open
ed, as he spoke, and Mr. Morton, start
ing to his fbd, took the lamp in his
hand and went forth into the corridor.
In a moment after he rcturned, in com
pany with an old lawyer named Parsons,
whose faoe wore the Rime villainous look
that it did when I had last seen him,
two years before. .
They seated themselves opposite one
another at the table, when Morton
spoke:
'Come,' said he, 'to htudness at once;
you have kept me waiting already:, and
I am in baste to have the affair= settled.'
!With all my heart.' replied the other.
'I am as anxious as yourself to have it
off my hands.'
'Have you brought the papers ? Are
they all correct ?'
have; and rest assured that noth
ing can deprive you of'the estate now if
you are but discreet.'
He had been searching in his pockets
as he spoke, and now he produced a
couple of documents, which be laid up
on the table before him. The other
grasped them and began to read.
.4 'That is the true will,' said the lawyer.
'The other is the one I have drawn up.'
. 4 Ah 1. I see.'
He laid one of the papers down upon
the table and went on perusing the
other for some time in silence.
'AU ight,' said be at length. !Very
well done, and the signature excellently
counterfeited.'
1. think were your 'brother alive, he
would hardly dare swear he had not
penned it himself,' said Parsons with a
dry laugh.
I started at the words and came near
uttering a cry.
'Dead 1 dead, then, at last;' I
said to myself; 'and some deep-planned
villainy is going on to-night between
these two.'
Morton, when he had finished read
ing the document he held, folded it up
annd placed it , securely in his pocket.
*Now,' said be. 'we will proceed to
finish our work. The papers of which
I spoke are in an old chest yithin that
closet. Bring.them forth and we will
destroy them altogether.' "
The lawyer arose and crossed the
door to a small door at the further ex
tremity of the sparhnertti which ho,
with great difficulty, opened. In a mo
ment a returned with several bundles
of dusty papers, which he gave to the
other, and again seated himseli.
'With the destruction of these,' ex
claimed Morton, 'all this property is
mine. Then let the bawdy late re
fuse the snit of my son, if she please; I
care not. Had she seen fit to aocapt of
his hand, when first he made the oiler,
this would have been imasoeseary, and

Act• POE ow) minute,
Ein
I uvula have been willing to let the
property pass into their possession.
But, as she has refused, and with •sus in
sulting scorn, to become his wife, the
fool whom she hopes. to wed shall find

Hate, then, was alive, and I could
have thanked her uncle for the intelli

which he had spoieU of myself. Bet
the neat moment lies elan* for her
interests, and determined to; save the
11 wR mentioned, if possible, for I now
comprehended the fall state of the case.
But, how to do it ? ICI appeared be
fore the guilty parties they might mar
der me, and I had •no weapon' with
which l could dgehind myielf or awe
then's. - "
- Before I mild, think farther on the
nastier, Mr: Morton took up the will
and opened it that it might bum the
more easily.
"'This shall be first destroyed,' said
he, .'and the those other papers, which
are only valuable is connection with it,

His hand approached the light; in an
other instant the Papers would be in
flames. A thought struck me.perhaps,in
the present situation I might accomplish
my desire, by working upon their feats.
It was the only thing that -presented
itself. and I. would try it at all events.
Accordingly. just as the corner of the
paper- waslntering the dames. I with
drew a. step, that they might not detect,
and gave a low, hollow groan. - The ef
fect wan all I could have wished. Mor
ton's hand fell to this table, the eyes of
both glanced in terror around the apart
ment, and they seemed rootel to their
seats with Nu.
'Did you hear ?' uttered Morton, after
a :raiment, in a whisper.
1. did l' was the reply; it seemed to
come Irbru the outside.'
'From below, rather; it may have
been the wind; but let us hasten the
burning of these papers and away. I
care, not to stay in this dreary place
any longer.'
,Again the paper was approaching the
lamp; Again' I uttered a groan. deeper
and more prnkniged than before, and
this time followed it up with a deMoni
seallaugh;, The paper dropped from
Morton's - ;tauld to, thepoor, and he
sprang to his feet, With two or. three
bounds he cleared the room, and nearly .
fell to the bottom of the stairs . in his
haste to escape from the place. The
lawyer follbwed close in: his rear, even
more frightened than his Companion. I
heard them inane into the open air with
feelings of unbounded" delight, and I
ient after them an unearthly yell, which
efeeehireied their aptuul cot • Iwo.
c - The light still rambled, and I lost no
time in securing the documents which
I desired. I did nottake them lll—the
will of itself was sufficient, and I could
not take the whole, nor wait to look
them over, for the iota& of the two men
might subside, and they return at any
moment. rSo I fled from the house,
; .11 escaped as quickly as possible to
village, where, without my return
being known to any one beside, I called
at the residence of a valued friend, with
whom I determined to stay through the
night, giving hini a full account of what
had happened, and receiving from him
in return an anoount of everything of
importance which bad transpired in
Reyfleld daring my absence. I now
learned that the father of Bate had been
dead about two months only, since
which time Bate henielf had been an
inmate of her uncle's house.
We had been conversing an hour or
more, when a loud alarm was heard in
the street, and the cry of 'fire 1' rang out
upon the night air. • We went to the
door, when we saw that a red glow was
pervading the whole heavens. I cora
prebend the truth in an instant, and
turned my eyes in the direction of the
Morion mansion. It was all in flames,
and fierce tongues of-fire were darting
out from every window, the roaring of
which could soon be heard even from
where we were standing. -
The two conspirstOrs, whom I had so
terrified, had not returned after they
left, it was very plain to be seen; and
as I had not extinguished the limp, the
loose papers upon the table mast have
been blown Into tht flames, thus Setting
the room on fire. The building was
old, and easily ignited; and in half an
hour from the time olthe fire bursting
out only a mass of - ruins remained.
The excitement throughout the town
was intense, and many - surmises were
made as to how the mansion could have
been fired—butnone imagined the
true cause. t
The next day did •not leave my
friend's house, but I sent for a trusty
lawyer and gave the will into his bands,
with the full particulars of what I had
witnessed in connection with it. On
the morning following. however, I
Started to see Kate . I reached the resi
dence of Mr. Morton and rang the bell;
the door opened, and in another in
stant the dear girl was in my arms.
'I am so glad' on have come 1' said
she, when she ?mid words to speak.
fedied, I know not . why, but I feared
you would not Tetley.'
'You doubted me ? 'Ah I Kate, you
had no cause; the two years haie but
just expired, and,l have anticipated this
'moment with as great joy and impa
tience as yourself.'
only feared som e accident might
have prevented your arrival. A sad
change has indeed taken place since we
parted; my fidher—' '
Bobs choked her utterance, and she
leaned her bead upon my bosom, and
gave warto a flood of tears.
'I know all dose Kate
. 1' said I,.ten
derly.: 'lt is hard blow tor yortz—for
myself; but we must submit to the will
of Providence.' .
We entered the park); and when Kate
had partly composed helself, she said:
'The death of my father in not all.
When I pledged yin my hand, a .for.
tune was to accompany it; now, alas, I
have nothing ! I know not how it is,
- but my uncle claims the entire estate;
the will, which hebutyasterday showed
me, leaves lint a trifle.'
A door wail Bong Ardently open; and
Mr. Morton appeared, evidently some•
what excited, it not envied. Ho had
heard my entrance to the - lime and
listened to all that had been said.
'lt is no fault of-mine,' •he :exclaimed
abruptlj, without giving me any other
salutation, 'that - you are not an heiress.
I can only repeat what I have"told you.
that the property was heavily mortgag
ed years ago. I was Unluckily the prin.
- cipal creditor, having at various UMW
advanced large sums to pay off intim
braucea and return the property invio
late. As executor of the estate, I must
see that suits affairs are settled—though
the task is an unthankful one enough.;
And it does not very well become.you I'
he added, looking angrily at his niece,
'to be thus raising suspieions of my in
tegeity in the minds of ; others because,
forsooth, your father had not the ability
to keep what descended to him:'
am sure I said . nothing to that end,'
replied Kate, surprised at the warmth of
his words.
The matter shall be investigated 1 1 I
remarked, indignant at the tone of the
hypocrite,' 'and perhaps, Bate, it may
result more beneficial to you than he
would have you think it could.'
'And who made you a party to the af
!Aire heeded, turning fiercely upon me.
'I am her protebtor now lijid hence-.
forth, and red' assured - 1 will not see
her wronged I And allow me to state
that for one who is inneicent, - your hm
&age is inexPlicable.'> , •
'I leave it all with you.'c said Bate,
looking ai r me, Wand trnet that you will
see that /the matter is properly- ad-
'lf you then ; commission. me, I I will
attend to it,,and at onoe i We shall,
however, reqdire the aseistanoe of a
legal grentloaisa, .ad Glicrst, It I in4tediti
not, is Mr. Winteirton opposite. We,
call him,in.'
Mr. Winterton, the lawyer with whom
I had counseled the day 'Previous, was,
indeed, pist passing on the other side
of the street, and he immediately en
tered the house, as I Called to him
through the opeii windoW. As a mat=
ter of term, / explained to him in a few
words the wholecffair. '
`Will yoii please to let me see the.
will of Mr.: Morton 2' asked Mr. Win;.
!erten, alter hearing 'no - patiently
‘O, &Addy,: replied the 'merchant;
and, goitg l into another room, he soon
after returned with the document given
him by Parsons two night before:
The lawyer took it, and read it atten;
tively thionh. '
'Very ,pr i operly done,' remarked he
when he had ooboluded; 'bit the signa
ture—'
'And what of the signature ?' broke
in•tho other—'ii it not guanine ?
think I are quite as good a fudge of my
brother's handwriting as yourself;
moreover, I was a witness to his
'Very likely.' observed Winterton
coolly, handing the. pallet, back u he
spoke; 'nevertheless the law must be
satisfied in suchtases, and when there
is a doubt--''
'And who dares to - aoubt V> cried Mor
ton, furiously, carried away by :. the
strong passions that moved him—itho,
I ask, dare doubt that this is the will of
my brother ?'
'Pardon me, but _ I have doubts my
self—strong doubts—especially while
thhipaper is in exillence.'
He drew forth, as he spoke the origi
nal will of Kate's father, and held it up
to the observation of the other. The
effect was startling. Merton's face
changed instantly toe look of the dead-
Halt hue, and the angry words he was
about to utter died away in a groan.
He knew at once that he was ruined—
utterly. hopelessly rained—and he
sank back in his seat, incapable of
speech or motion. ,
'You see that all is known,'. confirm
ed the lawyer, assuming a sternness of
voice he bad not before used, 'and you
Will do well to make no denial of your
crimes. : The deed you hold is a forged
one, and, we have ample proof that such
is the ca4e. - Yon ,thought - the flames
which cc:dimmed the old mansion-house
had destroyed the evidence of your
guilt, but you were mistaken. They
were preserved to defeat the unholy
scheme you had formed to deprive your
orphan niece of her possessions.'
'Merciful heaven I' Dried Kate, stock
ed and bewildered at what had passed;
'can it indeed bw i tnte that you, uncle,
are capable of snob a deed ?'
The old man uttered not a word but
he turned his eyes upon his niece, stag
gered to his feet, and , then, ere he could
advance a step, convulsive motion
shook his whole frame,, a deep groan
burst from his pallid lips, and he fell
forward heavily to the floor. I sprang
to him and raised his head; a small
stream of blood was issuing from one
corner of his mouth; and his eyes were
fixed and glassy. I laid my-hand upon
his bosom ; the heart gave not a throb.
He was dead !
It was the desire of Hate that the
crime of, her uncle; Should not be made
known, and we determined that the af
fair shOuld remain a secret to the world
as far as possible. The villain Parsons
was acquainted with our knowledge of
his acts, and, to save himself, fled the
place forever, which, undex the circum
stances, was all that we desired. Aid,
tinily, Kate, at the expiration of her
term of, mourning, placed her hand in
mine one day before thvdtar of the vil
lage church, and there, witiktzOing
joy, we spoke the vow that made as
one! ,
They embraced: Two young men who
move in the very beet Austin society
went on a spree not long since. After
they were prettrwell Under way one of
them said in at inebriged tone of voice:
'Let us bid each othei'good night, Bill?'
'Why, you are not going home already?

And even her graceful, bare, brown toes,

Looked from her watering hazel eyes.
