"Beautiful as a starlight night," I re plied, in answer to her glance rather than her words. "You show yourf elf a real benefactor to humanity, by I ringing this lovely exotic from the land of song."

But Harry did not seein to find as much encouragement in my view of the matter as I had expected. On the contrary, he passed his hand through his short light curls uutil they stood fairly on end, and paced up and down the room with an anxious, disturbed expression on his haudsotne face, wh'ch surprised and puz zled me. "It isn't that, Will ; it isn't that," he said at last. "I believe that Angela cares for uie.

And rising as islie spoke, we stood gazing longingly after Eugenie's graceful figure, as she preceded the Queen out of the box.

Was there ever a poor fellow eo desper ately spooney ?" ,ni "I don't see why he's to be piltied," replied Chichester crossly. '-The Sig norina is a miracle of beauty, and they say she's enormously rich. By Jove ! what eyes and what a .superb form! These foreigners take the shine out of our English women, most decidedly. Can you show; us anything as handsome as that in America," Neilson ?" "Oh ! of course, any number, niy dear boy,'' I replied laughingly. "The Sig norina would be called rather plain in New York, and I doubt if they'd ask to take her photograph in Boston.

Tbey were in Paris "to gether last winter, and the Signotina made a tremendous hit." , By this time I had brought my glasses to bear uprn the box, and could; not but own that even in the blaze of beauty which filled the opera house that night, the young Signorina had no peer. She wag a brunette, with features of almost Clreeian straigh tness, and a wealth of dark hair growing low down upon her forehead and leaving but a narrow spaco aboveher "delicately marked eyebrows. Her face was pure oval, the cheek of that exquisite roundness mod, softness which seems peculiar to the women cf southern climes, and her eyes the most wouderful feature I had ever seen in a human face, arge, dark, and shining with a steady lambent light which indicated ; that the soul ot whose windows they were was of a pure and noble type,;., v "x 8 r and cut out Uarry Fane, boys," said Percy Ponifret, the wildest, mast Kaanst , . t sh - . uiuei iiarum-Bcarum or our Uhrist Cbnrch " oi Know jady L-, Neilgan.don't f - Sue alwaya ?-sweet, Dnao,. von Come, perhaps the Sionnrir.. will -uiako it as lively for us as she does for Harry.

As I Sat there, quite hidden by n bow er of white and scarlet camellias, I heard voiees approaching, and before I could make my presence known, was aware that the Signorina Angela aud Harry Fane were " on the f other ' side of my leafy screen. ; "Indeed, Signor," said the soft voice of the Italian in very good English, but with a slight foreign aeeeut, "you flatter me too much. I cannot believe that one whom you have known so short a time can be so important to your happiness." "Listen to mconc moment, Signorina," said the voice of my friend,- and the depth of feeling in its tones betrayed to inc how much cf life aud happiness he had staked on his chances of success with this ; woman. ''From the first, "hionient that I saw you, cverj hour only strengthens and deepens my love. There is nothing you can ask that I ; am not ready to give; no sacrifice you can demand that I will not make for your sake." ,1 "I demand no sacrifice, Signor j I will accept none," replied tho girl, and her voice was low and very sad as she spoke the words, "I thank you for your kiud thoughts, and if we had-met earlier, per haps it might have been; but I am net quite free to listen to words of love. Since my childhood I havo beeu betroth ed to one of my own people my father'6 choice for me, it is true but not the less binding on that account; so farewell, Signor, and God bless you." . She was gone before Harry could re ply, and almost at the ' same lnnmeut I laid my hand upon his arm and - whig- pcred : ' "I was here accidently, dear old lellow, snd heard it all. Go home now and rest. I'll be with you at breakfast , to-morrow morning, and' we'll talk this cursed mat ter over without matutinal." ' He was ghastly pale, but pressed my hand, andt with a . feeble , attempt at a smile, answered z ' ''AH right; coffee and cigars at one ;" and then disappeared through a side door which led by a flight of stone steps iuto the garden. i 11. Harry Fane's chambers in Pieadilly were the most luxurious of bachelor apart ments. ' - - Three large, heavily-curtained win dows overlooked the . Green Park, and the sitting-room was a" delightful medley of mirrors, softly tufted chairs and sofas, pictures, tiger i "skins cartridge boxes, breech-loaders, curb , chains, hunting flasks, cigar-holders, and meerschaums of every variety of shape and color. I found Harry at the breakfast table looking over U pile of notes and letters. , 1 HoW are youV old fellow ?" he called out in a cherry voice. "Been in bed yet ?

I had lived ft good while in the world, and seen it under most of its phases and aspects; consequently surpriso was rather an unusual emotion with me; but I frankly confess that I was completely stupefied at Harry's announcement. Confused recol lections of college larks, Mary Ann, the prettv bar-maid at the Blue Posts, of all the wouieu I had ever known Harry, to. nirw with, rushed through my brain, only to inciease my bewilderment. Since we turned our backs upon Oxford six years before, Harry and I had hardly been sep arated for a day. I had been home for a twelvemonth's visit, but Harry had gone . with me, and we hud made the tour of Canada and the United States together. During all that time 1 had never heard of his having an cutanglcmeut ; aud if any one had told mc that there was an inci dent of Harry Fane's life,' or even a thought of his heart, with which I was not familiar, I .should have repudiated the idea with disdain. It was impossi ble to doubt bis sauity, and yet lor the moment I almost feared that his reason was unsettled. "It can't be true. Harry," I said ; "you must be either mad or dreaming. "True, my dear fellow ! I wish I could think it was not," he replied. "Iu all these years, and it's nearly ten since the accursed net was thrown around me, I've never really .felt it until now; but take another weed, old fellow, and I'll tell you the tale as briefly and as calmly as I can 'You know,' of course that my mother was a Spanish woman, and that I was born in Cadiz. My father's estates in this country had been completely enten up by the extravagances of his predeces sors, tnv grandfather haviug eveu sold the entail io cover his liabilities. My mother's family belonged to the olJ grandees of Spain, and were immensely rich. She ran away with my father, I believe, and there was a great row, which all ended happily, as the young couple were forgiven and taken back by the out raged parents. I was their only child, and, after the accursed custom of that country, was betrothed before I was oat of my long clothes to my cousin, the daughter of uiy mother's bro.ther, and the heiress of half of Andalusia. If they had only kept me in Spain, it wouldn't have signified so much ; I might have been a respectable old Hidalgo by this time, smelling ot garlic, and smoking like an old chimney. But my father insisted upon sending uie to England when I was onlj feven yoais c'.i, afid.as ? know. I have been here aluio.-t ever since. "When 1 was uLout twenty, and just ready for the university, I wa9 sent for to come home and see uiv mother, who was io a dying state. So I went, aud found hor bent upon being present at my mar riage before she died. My gentle, beau tiful mother ! I can see her now, her dying eyes raised and looking into mine, with that wistful, anxiou3, im ploring look which belongs, only to those on tho borders of the promised laud, and which no man with a spark of generosity in him could withstand. She thought she was doing me a kindness. She thought my happiness for life would be secured if the great estates of the De Castros were united to our own.; Poor mother! If she could sec me now! "Well, I consented, of course : who wouldu't? and, to make a long story shoit, we were married in my, father's private chapel in Cadiz, and I have never seen my wife from ' that day to this, and never will againwith my own consent, so help me Ileavcu 1 If a divorce court can be found to dissolve the mar riage, it shall be done.

As for a divorce in Spain, and in the Romish communion too, it is simply impossible. Doyouremembcr her at all? What was she like?" ' ; "An unfledged, unformed, but very promising Gorgon of twelve years old, my dear fellow. Length, leanuess, and blackness are the only terms that will describe her. And such manners - too! She fled from tne as soon as the benedic tion was pronounced, and took refuge on the roof, I believe, or under ground, where I wish she had been securely packed down, and never risen up again to curse me with her hideous claim upon my name and freedom. God forgive rue but when I think of Angela, Will, I feel as if I should go mad." He got up and paced , the room with an expression of such genuine distress upon his honest faoe that my heart ached for him. ' But still I knew that there was bnt ono way out of the difficul ty, but one cerfain road to. peace and honor j and, however rough that road mipht be, I should be doing him very false kindness by sowing seeds of hope over there, see my father, and some arrangement with him?" - , "Harry, you know that I will do for you all that one man can do for another," I replied ; "but take my advice, old fel low, and go yourself. V ell, have your own way," I continued, as Harry shook his head impatiently, and recommenced his hurried strides about the room. "1 11 go if you wish it, though I'm rather ereen at meddling in other men's affairs. But I must make my own conditions, which are that you give me your word of honor not to see Angela again until you are a free man, and that you go to Lady L. to-day and tell her the whole truth." "Pretty sharp remedy that, Will," replied he. '.'You can't be called a very tender-hearted practitioner, but I know you're right; so if you'll grunt me one more interview with Angela just to exon erate myself, I'll go with you as far as Par.s, and remain there until your re turnn." III. ' The tidal train next morning took Harry and myself to Folkestone ; and before' noon on the following day we were eating our breaklast nt: Vcrey s in the Palais Royal. . Harry's natural buoyancy of disposi tion made luui a charming companion unuer any circumstances, and he was now so full of hope and confidence in the success of my mission) that nothing 1 could say would make him look at the future from a common sense point of view. Angela, he assured me, had behaved most nobly had implored him to forget her, to put her aside forever and return to his allegiance, to the wife who had the first chum upon his heart, and to the old lather whom he had so sadly neglected during thess many years. "But I don't intend to take her advice all the same, uiv dear fellow." lid went oo, "for if everything else fa'ls I'll no to Indiana and live for' twelve mouths. That's a sure card, is'ut it, Will ? So we parted at the railway station where I had taken my ticket for Bayoune, ; whence I proposed to cross the Pyrenees to Madrid, and then, with courier or guide, to perforin the remainder of the journey on Jjgpcback. 1 had never seen ipain,ffu7 being by nature tho niut erratic and nomadic of mortals, I was 5h1v too glad to escape from the artificial atmosphere of London high life; and find niyself'auiong mountains, streams, and rivulets' once more.' My journey through Spain was de lightful. I stopped long enough in Mad rid, Seville, and Granada to sec all that was attractive in their art ireasures oi relies of past days, and hs 1 ahnu.jt forgot ten the uiiplasant ubjuct of my coming, when a letter irom Harry, which I found awaiting mc at the Fonda de It Europa, at Cadiz, awakened me to the recollection of my mission and of its very disagreea ble nature. j I found Mr. Fane's '.'villa by the sea" all that unlimited wealth combined with refinement and taste j could make it. Large and lofty rooms, exquisitely de corated and furnished, marble halls and vestibules iu which fountains sent up their ever sparkling foim, parlerres of rare aud brilliant flowers, and alar off the blue and shining sea, made up . a scene which realized all that I had ever dreamed of in the way! of-Iuxury and ' enjoyment. The silken curtains opposite to where I stood in the saloon, iuto which I had been ushoreu, wen drswn back, and one of the grandest old men I have ever seen entered. j Tall and commanding in person, with the blue eyes and fair skin of his race, the only effect that southern life aud cli mate had upon him was to tone down his natural ruddiness of complexion, thus producing an exterior of greater delicacy aud refinement than is common among Englishmen of his age.! He met mc with a cordial frankness which brought Harry to my mind; and, after a few courteous inquires about ni journey, aud a little desultory talk upon general subjects, he led the conversation at once to his son and to the object of my coming. i "He had received a letter from Harry that morning, and , he regretted," he said with high-lared courtesy, that his son should have allowed his friend to take so long a journey when the wholo matter could havebeti so easily arranged on paper. For my son should know mo well enough to believej Mr. Neilson," the old man continued with a slight tremor in his voice, "that after the state ment he makes to mo in his letter, I am as anxious as he can be that his unhappy marriage should be dissolved. I propose to take advice this very day upon the subject, and if it costs me half my for tune he shall be a free man in less than three months time. I am an old man, sir, and hoped never to be ashamed of my own child ; but Harry's absence and neglect during all these" years betray a want of priuciple and good feeling which I should have thought impossible in one of my own blood." j "But consider, my dear sir," I said, "how this unfortunate marriage was forced upon your son, and how unsuited the lady seems to his naturo and require ments."';., .-j . . ,.,;'.,; "The iady, sir," interrupted Mr. Fane, in an excited tone, "is all that is most noble and amiabli ; as,' far superior. o her husband as the sun is brighter than the moon. For her sake, more than his I should wish the marriage to be annul led." I made a feeble attempt to say a few words in vindication of my friend, but tho old man had so completely dwarmed me by his ready acquiescence with his sou's views, and I felt no thoroughly ashamed f my mission aad even of tbo motive that had prompted itj that my one desire was to bring the interview t an end as speedily as possible. r - As I rose Mr. 'Fane rosa also, ; nad after apologizing with frigid - politeness foi his want of hospitality in not urging -me to prolong my stay, he added : . . i ; "My niece's , indisposition makes t . impossible for me to receive visitors -at present ; but I propose being in Londdo " early in Jaly, and trust that I shall bV9 the pleasure of seeing yoa at dinner, Mr. Neilson, on the 14th of that month at the Clarendon Hotel.

Will you tell Harry this for me?- If ever a man felt disposed to blot out the word "friendship" from his vocabu lary, and to spend the remainder of his life in severe isolation from his fellows', I was that man when I returned to the Fonda do la Europa and sat down , to write to Harry Fane. i: " .

' This meeting will soon bo over, and if legal separation can be arranged, then hurrah for freedom end happiness I" ' "Oh ! hang it, Neilson ! -thoie'U never be any happiness for me in this world again.
