NUMBER 52.
In the meantime, Mr. Meader continued hie
whispered oonvereation with the housekeeper;
making a desperate effort, in the midst of his
perplexity, to maintain his customary airy( pat•
ronage, and his customary assumption of supert.
ority. "There is a great deal of truth, ma'am,'
he softly began, "a great deal of truth, certainly,
in what you my. But you are talking of the
woman, while lam talking of the man. Do you
mean to tell me that I am to let him go, after
what has happened, without at least insisting on
hie giving me his Dame and address?"
"Do you put trust enough in the foreigner to
believe that he would give you his right name
and address if you asked him ?" inquired Mire.
Peutreath. "With submission to your better
judgement, I niust confess that I don't. Bat
supposing you were to detain him and ebsryps
him before the magistrate ; addbow you are to
do that, the._ magistrate's house being. I supremo,
about a couple of hours' walk from here, is woo
than I cast tell—you must timely risk 011tadin
Mrs. Franklutd by detaining the woman and
charging the woman as well ; for, after all, Mr.
Munder, though I believe the foreigner to bees
pable of anything, it was the woman who took
the keys, was it not F " 7
"Quite so, quite so Ilittaid Mr. Munder, whose
sleepy eyes were now opened to this plain and
straightforward view of the ease- for the first
time. "I was, oddly enough, putting that point
to myself, Mrs. Pentreath, just before you hap
pened to speak of it Yes, yes, yea--juet so just
so!"
"I can't help thinking," continued the house'
keeper, in a mysterious whisper, "that the beet
plan, and the plan most in accordance with our
instructions, is to let them both go, as if we did
not care to demean ourselves by any more quart
relling or arguing with them ; and to have them
followed to the next place they stop at. The
gardner's boy, Jacob, is i weediog the bruadwalk,
in the west garden, this afternoon These people
have not seen him about the premises, and need
not see him, if they are let out again by the south
door Jacob is a sharp lad, as you know; and,
if he was properly instructed, I really don't
see—"
"It is a most singular circumstance," interpo
sed Mr. blander, with the gravity of consummate
assurance; "but when I first sat down to this
table, that idea about Jacob occurred to me.--
What with the effort of speaking, and the beat
of argument, I got led away from it in the most
unaccountable way—"
Here, Uncle Joseph, whose stock of patience
and politeness was getting exhausted, put his
head into the room again
"I shall have one last word to address to you,
sir, in a moment," sail Mr 31under, before the
old man cou , d speak .I)..n't y ou su pp ose t h a t
your blustering Awl your bulking has had say
effect on me. It may do with foreigners, sir;
but it won't do with Englishmen, I can tell you."
Uncle Joseph shrugged his shoulders, smiled,
and rejoined his neice in the passage outside.—
While the housekeeper and the steward had been
conversing together, Sarah bad been trying to
persuade her uncle to profit I;ty her knowledge of
the passage that led to the south door,and to Blip
away unperceived. But the LA man steadily rei
fused to be guided by her adr.ce "1 will not
go out of a place guil he said, "when j have
done no harm. Nothing shall persuade me to
put myself, or to pot y , w, in the wrong lam
not a man of much wits, hut let my conscience
guide me, and so long I go right They
led us here, Sarah, of tli, ir own accord, and they
shall let us ou• tI
t ir own rd a;so "
"Mr. Munder Mr Munfirr !" ich , spered the
housekeeper, interfering to at, p a fresh explosion
of the qteirartra iodic rat u , wL rG threatened
to break ont at the contempt im he the
shrugging of Uncle Jqsern's wit oilthr., "while
pu are speaking to that audaetons man, shall I
slip into the garden awl _ice triltruct
tiona
Mr Munder paused before answering—tried
bard to see a more dignified way our f the di ,
lemma in which he had p'aeed himself than the
way suggested by the bousekeeper—filed entire
ly to discern anything of the sort--swallowed
hie indignation at one heroic gulp—and replied
emphatically in two word: "Go, ma'am !"
"What does that mean ?—what has she gone
that way for ?" said Sarah to her uncle in a quick,
sulicious whisper, as the housekeeper brushed
hastily by them, on her way to the west garden.
Before %bele was time to answer the question,
it was followed by another, put by Jr. 3 Mender.
"Now, sir I" said the steward, standing in the
doorway, with his heads under his coat-tails and
his head very high in the air "Now, air, and
now ma'am, for my last word Am Ito have
a proper explanation of the abstracting and put.
loiniog of those keys, or am I not ?"
"Certainly, sir, you are to have b t t )e exploits..
tiou," replied Uncle Joseph " is, if you
please, the same explanation that I had the howv
or of giving a little while ago. Do you wish to
hear it again ? It is all the explanation we have
gat about us."
"Oh lit is, is it'" said Mr. Munder "Then
all I have to say to- both of you is--leave the
house directly ! Directly I" he added, in his
most coarsely offensive tones, tt.king refuge in
the insolence of authority, from 'the dim cons
seiousness of the absurdity of his own position,
which would force itself on him, even while he
spoke. "Yes, sir I" he continued, growing more
and more angry at the cot:apostle with which
Uncle Joseph listened to him "Yes, sir : you
may bow and scrape, and jabber your broken
English somewhere else I won't put up with
you here. I have reflected with myself, and reas
oned with myself, and thought with myself, and
asked myself, calmly--as Englishmen always do
—if it was any use making you of any importance
and I have come to a conclusion, and that con.
elusion is—no, it is'nt! Don't you go away with
a notion that your blusterings and your bully
ings have had any effect on me (Show them
out, Betsey !) I consider you beneath—ayes,
sir, sod below I—my notice. (Show them out!)
I wash my hands of you, and I dismiss you,
(show them out !) and I survey you, and I look
upon you, and I behold you, with contempt!"
"And I, sir," returned the nbect of all this
withering derision, with the most exasperating
politeness, "I shall say, for having your contempt,
what I could by no means have said for having
your respect, which is, briefly—thank you. I,
the small foreigner, take the contempt of you,
the big Englishman, as the greatest compliment
that can be paid from a man of pout:composition
to a man of mine." With that, Uncle Joseph
made a last fantastic bow, toe-k his news's arm,
and followed Betsey along the passages that. led
to the south door, leavirg Mr. Mender to com
pose a fit retort at his leisure.
Ten minutes later, the housekeeper returned
breathless to her room, and found the steward
walking backwards and forwards in a high state
of irritation.
"Pray make your mind easy, Mr liiunder,"
she said. "They are both clear of the house at
last, and Jacob has got them well in view on the
path over the moor."
