 m GOLDEN B5N9S. CHAPTER XXX â€"a}^d Last The heartless cruelty of Mr Riner in allowing his pocr aubmiasive wife to live in a room such 8S he would not for the world have kept horse, or dog, cr even violin in ehocked and repelled me, and wrung from me the cry â€" "The villain!" "Hush 1" said she. "He may be libtca- n to us now." " I don't care " cried I passionately. "I am glad if he hears â€" if he hears me say that this morning I hopad he would escape, but that now I hope tUey will find him, for they cannot possibly punish him as he deserves. Oh, Mrs. Rayner, and I â€" I sleeping up in the turret to be out of the damp I How you mu3t have hated me " " I did ODce, I own," she whispered, sink- ing into a chair and taking the hands I stretched out towards her. " Bat it wa3 foolish of me, for you did not know â€" how could you know " "But why did you stay? Why did you say nothing about it And why were you not glad to go up stairs, instead cf begging a,' you did to remain here " " Because," she whispered, her nervous ^gitatiâ- ^n ccming back again, "I kiiBw that wnile I remained down hcrj they would not kill me outright they would Dot let me die down here end iut-oduce doctors and strang- ers to examine into the cause of my death into this room. I knew that a chansie of room was my death-warrant and it would have been, but for the accident which hap- pened to Sirah on the very u'ght when, but lor you, I should have been sleepins; up- stairs ready to her hand." I staggered back, suddenly remembering the message Mr. Rajn^r bad in his letter told me to give Sarah. It was this â€" " Tell Â¥arah not to forget the work she has to do in my absence." And I remember also the enm way in which she had received it. Could he have meant that Mrs. Rayner ccntinued â€" 'â-  He hates violeuoe all was to have been over by his return, aad he free to marry you." " But he couldn't. I was engaged to Laurence, Mrs. Rayner." Sie gave a little bitter smile. '• And do you think that, with Laurence away and Mr. Rayner here, you could have withstood him? In spite of his doft man- ners, he has a will that acts liks a spell. 1 tell you," said she, twisting my lingers ner- vously, "thou^hyou say he is in America, and Laurence lleade says I shiU never be in his pow( r again, his influence is strong upon me even now. There is no peace, no free dom for mo as long as be lives." "Mrs. Rayner," said Ifuddenly, "may I r sk you if what Mr. Rayner told me when 1 first came is true â€" that you were rich and he p'or, and that he lived on your money " 'â-  No, it is not true. I had a little money â- when he firot married me; which he ran through with at once." "And is it true you once wrote books, and had a little boy whose death made a great charge in you " eaid I slowly, watch- in a- hf r h c ;. "Kg; I ctver had any child but Mona and Haidee." " Then what did he " " What did he tell you so for? He de- lights in mfkiug up fantast'c talea of that sort, and ofttii in making me bear witness to the truth tf his inventions it is part of his wild humour. When he went away to carry out a robbery, he would let me know what he was going to do â€" just to tortureme." The dead cilntintss witn which she told m=^ all this was maddening to me. " Why did you bear it Why didn't you rebel, or run away and tell a policeman " "If Sarah had killed me, and you had married Mr. Rayner," she anawerea slowly, â-  taring straight at me, " ycu would have understood why." And the power this mnn exercised over every one who came much in hs way be cime in a moment clear to me, when I siw by what dilFerent means he had on the r-w hand cowed his wife and the tiery S Ti'h. and on the other gained a strorg ictiuer c over such different WLirea as Mrs. Rsade and myst If. But the revelation was more than I could bear. I said faintly â€" " May I go to my roonj. Mis. P^ayner I â€" I am not well." And she her.-lf led mr vory tlowly â€" fcr I was ndeed wesk tud ill, halt with the pain of my arm and half with mis'ry snd diagi.st â€" up to my bed in the turret-room. Before the end ot the day I hca'd that Mrs. Saundtrs had disappeared without auy warciDg or any application for piyin«nt of services, as soon as Sarah had bsen taken off to the lunatic asylum. SriC had spared us any pai:gs of self-reprcach on her sccount, nowo\er, by taking with her y.x=i. R^yner's watcji, and also the cock's, wh-'ch had ijctii k'tt in the rjcms of their respective owners. " She doesn't xp9ct to see ]Mr. Rayntr again ihen," I whispered to Mrs. Riyner, who cim-3 to my bedside to ul\ me the ulws, " or she would nevtr dare to co that.' And. persuaded by me, Mrs. Rayner now relieved cf any dread on Sarah s account, returned to the front spire-room, which, however oisigrceixble the remembrance of S irah's mad atti mpt on her life might te, was at any rate healthier than the dungeou in the left wicg. 'J here was really nothinii to keep the pjor lady at the Alders now, as I told Laurence by letter that evening all that Gordon had said to me in the store- room, and the idea had gained ground that Mr. Rayner tad gene to America. But she insisted upon remaining untill was well ei:- 01 gh to be moved, an event which I had my- seii retarded by rashly leaving my room three times since I had been tcTi to keep my bed. Next day, which was Saturday, Lwrence wrote to say he that he had himself beatched the store room and Mr. Riyner's study, but found no trace of Gordon b.-yond a pair of handcuffs placed neatly in the middle ot the stcre room on the top of a pyramid cf bis- cuit tins and pickle-jars, with a sheet of paper saying that the late â- wearer bepged to return them with thanks to the police, who mi^ht perbapi sucoeed in making them tay longer vii the wrist of a simpler rogue than his obedient servant, F. Gordon. Those days that I spent in bed were a misarable time for all of us. The suspeiise we were all in â€" never sure whether Mr. Rayner was in America or whether he might be really close to ns all the time. The bits of news brought na from hour to hour by the awe-stricken Jane â€" first that there wasa large reward offered for hia capture then rumonn, which always proves to be false, of his having been caught then complaints of the numl^r of people who oame j ast to 'ook at the outside of t'ls house thit the u^lyburi^s were being told about I Fur the facta fell far short of the accounts which were freely curculated â€" of there baing a cel- lar full of human bones, supposed to be the remains of Mr. Rayner's victims, under the Alders that the household consislwd entire- ly of women whcm he had married at one time or another and so forth. Meanwhile the fog sti'l hung about the place, and Nap. the retriever howled every night. When Monday came, I, anxious to be declared convalescent as soon as possible,' aud to be able to ava 1 myself of Mrs. Min- ner's invitation to stay at the vicarage, per Euaded Doctor Lowe to let me go down- stairs. It was about twelve o'clock when I left my room, and I had make my way as far as the corridor below, when I became aware rf an unusual commotion on the ground- floor, doors being opened and shut, the sobbing of a woman, excited whisperings between Jane and the cook, and then a heavy tramp, tramp of men's feet through the hall and along the passage to Mr. R ly- ner's study. I went to the top of the back stair-case, descended a few steps, and looked over. The gardener and Sam werecarrying between them a door, on which something was lying covered by a sheet. The cook opened the study door, and they took it in. A horrible droad filled my mind and kept me powerless for a few moments. Then I ran along the corridor, down the front staircase, and met little Haidee with awe on her childish face. "Oh, Mii-s Christie," she whispered, clutching my arm in terror, " they've found papa " Jane ran forward and caught me as I tot- tered in the child's clasp. Before I had re- covered sufficiently to go to Mr*. Rayner in the drawing-room, Laurence and Mrs. Man- ners arrived, having heard the ghastly news already. They took us over to the vicarage at once, and I never returned to the Aiders again. In the evening Laurence told me all about the discovery. The gardener, who had done little work for the last three days beyond keeping the gate locked and driving away with a whip the boys who would swarm over when they got a chance, "jast to have a look at the place," had been attracted that morning by the shrill cries of Mona, who, now mere neglected than ever, spent all day in the garden in spite of the fog. He ran to the pond, whera she was nearly always to be found, and whence her cries came, fearing she had fallen in. But he found her stand- ing in the mud on the edge of it, ssreaming, " Come out, come out 1" and clutching with a stick at an object in the water. It was the body of her father, entangled among the reeds. The down-trodden grasses and rushes at that corner of the pond nearest to tae stile which joined the path through the planta- tion to the path tnrough the field beyond told the story of how he must have missed his way comLng through the plantation in the dense fog of Wednesday night, on his way back from the Hall to the Alders, slip- ped into the pond, and been drowned out there in the tog and darkness, while his dog Nap, hearing his cry for help, had tried in vain, by howling and barking, to draw at- tention to his master's need. It was an awful thing that Light to lay awake in my strange room at the Vicarage, and picture to myself the dead Mr. Rayner laying at the Alder*, the sole occupant, with the exception of the woman hired to watch by him, of the big dreary house where he, with his love of fun and laughter had seemed to me to be the one ray of brightness. I heard next day that two passages, booked in the nama of 'â-  Mr. and Mr*. Nor- ris," had actually been taken by him on board a ship which left Liverpool for New York on the very Thursday when we were to have startedon our journey " to Monaco." The tickets were found upon him and also the necklace, which proved to be a valuable ornameut of rubies that had belonged to Mrs. Cjnningham, which he had clasped around my neck on the night of his death, but which I had flung upcn the floor. These were the only cii?s, cf all the stolen jewels, which were ever recovered, with the except- ion of the uramoud pendant, which I sent back to its owner, L jrd Dilston. Upon the house being searched, the caudle which had fallen from my hand when I first went into the cellar und..'r the store room was found under the stagnant water there, and also the brosvu pTtmanteau, which was identi- fied as the eiie belonging to Sir Jonas Mills; bat the jewels, with the exception of ona diop from an car ring, had disappeared. I heard about (Gordon, as he told me I should, through Carruther.-i, who long be- fore the impression these events made died K-wav, receivod a letter dated from New York; in which Gordon, in a very r-jspeotful manner, apologised for the iacoQvenieiice h s suddden disappearance inightliave caused ;iis master, who had, he ecu Id not doubt, by this time learned the reasori of it through the London papers. Mr. C^nulhtrs would find thai; tne bills he had commissioaed hi-n to settle in Beaco ;sburg on that unfortunate Wednesday afternoon had been paid, and he begged to forward him the receipts; he had also left the silver-mouuted flask to be re- paired at Bell's and the hunting stock at Marsdon's, He had given up service for the present and taken to a different profession as he felt, if he was not taking a liberty in saying so, that it would be impossible for bim to find in America a master who gave him in all respects so much satisfactioa as Mr. Carruthers had done. Nothing more has ever been heard of Gor- don under that name but sjme time after- wards a representative of the United States Congress, who w*s described as a rich West Inaia merchant, made a great sensation by a very impresaive speech upon eome fin*n- cial question a r ugh sketch of him in a New York illustrated paper fell into the hands of Mr. Cirrathers, who sent it to Liurenee, and under the tiiaily cut mous- taohe and hair p irted very much to one side we fancied we iccogais^d something like the clear-cut feaiurs and bland expression of our old friend Gordon. I was married to Laurence before the trial of poor Tom Patkes and of the subordinate who had been caught removing the plate from the Hall. I had to give evidence, and I was so much distressed at having to do so that Tom, good-natured to the last, called out â€" " Don't take on so miss. Lar' bles) you, you can't say any worse than they know I only a matter of form yon know;" He took a stolid sort of ^lory in hia ini- iniquities, pleaded "Guilty" to the chargea brought against him of taking an active part in all three robberies, and exalted especially in the DPatneea of the ezecation of the rob* bery at Denbam Court, where the â- vaiions actiolea stolen were being quietly abstracted one by one at different times by Gordon for iwo or throe days before the Teesday, when they were finally carried off by Mr. Rayner, and takem by him and Tom to the Alders, where Sarah had received theui, as I had seen. As to what had become of the jewls after- wards, Tom professed himself as innocent as a child but, whether this is true (r not, nobody believed him. He was sentenced to fourteen years penal servitude, and did not hear the sentence with half so much concern as I. Poor Mrs. Rayner never entirely shook off the gloomy reserve which had grown around her during those long years of her miserable marriage. Kind-hearted Sir Jonas Mills was among the very first to come forward to help her and, by his generous assistance and that of other friends, she went to live abroad, taking Haidee with her, and Jane, who proved a most devoted servant and friend. Laurence and I who were married before she left England, undertook the care of poor little savage Mona, who has grown into al- most as nice a girl as her sister. And now I have one of my own too. (The End.) GRAINS OF GOLD. Never leave home with unkind words. Earnestness alone makes life eternity. The apple falls near the tree. By the error of others f»he wise man cor- rects his own. The man who can govern a woman can govern a nation. It is easier to make ail Earope agree than two women. Every day is a little life, aad our whole life, is but a day repeated. Affect not little shifts and subterfuges to avoid the force of an argument. There is nothing so strong and safe in an emergency of life as the simple truth. A great name is like an eternal epitaph engraved by the admiration of men on the road of time. Though an archer shoot not so high as he aims, yet the higher he tafces his aim the higher he shoots. When arguments press equally in matters indifferent, the safest method is to give up ours -Ives to neither. Simplicity, of all things, is the hardest to be copied, and ease is only to be acquired with the greatest labor. The premeditation of death is the premidi- tation of liberty he who has learned to die has forgot to serve. Commonly, physicians, like wine, are best when they are old and lawyers, like bread when they are young and new. Of all the gifts that nature can give us, the faculty ot remaining silent, or of answer- ing apropos, is perhaps the most useful. That state of life is the most happy where superfluities are not required and where necessaries are not wanting. He that judges, without informing him- self to the utmost that he is capable, cannot acquit himself of judging amiss. The life of man cionsists not in seeing visions and dreaming dreams, but in active charity and willing service. We must, if we are wise, make some calcu- lations in our life, and say what we can spend now, and what we shall keep for the future. There is but one philosophy, though there are a thousand sohools, and its name is forti- tude â€" to bear is to conquer our fate. Mark this well, ye proud men of action I Ye are, after all, nothmg but unconscious instruments of the men of thought. When the mind has brought itself to attention it will be able to cope with diffi- culties and master them, and then it may go on soundly. Ceasing to learn is beginning to die. Schooling is not only needed for girls and boys, but for men aud women through every phase of life, if they would complete their career. Cranks and CrookSi A Wall street millionaire has received a begging latter asking for §23,000 to estiblibh a home for "decayed point-givers" on the financial situations. An old bachelor died at East Alburg, Vt., the other day, and §60,000 in bomJs, notes and certificates were found in the lin- ings of his clothes. Mr. Bread says that Howard, the great philanthropist who crossed the seas to re- lieve the distressed, wasa brute and a t;^- rant in his own family, and that his cruel treatment caused the death of his wife. The doctor is of the opinion that even the extra- ordinary benevclenoe of Howard was one of the symptoms of the disease in his brain. A young man who was sent the other day by the Roxbury, Mass., court to the House of Correction for four months had on hia person a diary, which indicated that by beggiag he had secured about $2 50 or $3 a day, and that he had been in the habic of having a "good time." Nearly every eve- ning was marked as costing tweaty-five cents for admission to a theatre, conjert or skating rink. The Bombay OazetU states that the Ma- hommedans of that Presidency do not be- lieve the Soudan pretender to be the "imam Mahdi," or true Mahdi, yet regard him as a "Mnsjid," or spiritual guide. The true Mahdi, they believe, will not appear till about the cloae of the present century as witness to the coming oi Mahomet. They also, it is said, entertain the curious belitf that he is destined to experience no ietver than thirteen defeats bafora victory fina'dy crowns his arms. If the Mexican periodical. La Pairia, is a representative of the religious feeling that exists in that country, the missionaries who are now trying to convert the heathen should be recalled and shipped to Mexico, where they will find a mora civilized country in which to promulgate their dootrinea. A re- cent number of that periodical was unre- li^ioDS enough to contain several humorous as well as profane oaricatarea of the Irx'd His apostles and His tormentora.

Mr. De Leeseps often sleeps for twenty- four hours on a stretch, and then goea a whole week without a moment'a dozing. It is said that Mr. Mathew Arnold cleared six thousand dollars from the sweetness and light he distributed among the Yankees. A list of 500 persons who sent crosses aud reaths on the occasion of the funeral of the Duke of Albany is published in the London newspapers "by authority." Mr. John Boyle Reilly, being unJer the ban of the English government, will not ac- company Mrs. OReilly to Europe, where she proposes to spend the summer. Governor Robinson, of Massachusetts, wants "fashionable drinking" attacked next and hopes the time will soon come when wine will cease to be a necessity at wedding ehtertainments, A monument is to be erected in P^ris to Berlioz, the eminent composer. The muni- cipality have granted a site for the purpose on the Square Vintimille, at the corner of the Rue de Calais, in which he died. The late W.alter Francis Scott, fifth Duko of Buccleugh and seventh Dnke of Queens- bury, is said to have spent a million dollars in improving the harbor of Graston, two miles from Edinburgh. Queen Victoria is to be presented with the sacred flag blessed .by El Mahdi which was captured at Tokar, and which is made of two pieces of coarse silk, one buff and the other red, with Arabic inscriptions on each side. Prince Leopold had always a desire to be created Duke of York, but the Queen ob- jected. Tne title of the Uuke of Albany has been adopted five times in Scotland and four tinjes in England, but has never passed to a second generation. A "Lyceum dres* lining," printed all over with portraits in miniature of Henry Irvinfif and Miss Terry, and with scenes from Romeo and Juliet and The Merchant of Venice, is the latest Irving craze, which comes from an English Manchester printworks. Mr. Froude has been out of health for some time past, and as soon as he has com- pleted the revision of the proof sheets of the concluding volumes of his "L'fe of Mr. Carlyle," he will start on a voyage round the world. He proposes to pass aome time both in America and in Australia. Sir Michael Costa having sent a copy of his Eli and a fine Stilton cheese to Rossini, and receiving no reply from the author of William Tell, wrote and asked if the pack- age had arrived. "Yjee, dear Costa, it came to hand," answered Rossini. "TAe Cheese wat MacfTiificent." President Grevy is credited â- with having recently beaten Vignsux, the French champion billiard player, in a match at the Elytee, The President, remarks the Lon- don Truth, is a good man with the cue, but if he really beat Vigoaux, we must conclude that the skill of the latter is not confined to the board of green cloth. Louis XIV. made a man a Minister because he always allowed "Le Grand Monarque" to beat him at bil- liards. The late Dake of Buccleuch and the Dnke of Northumberland once found themselves in a carriage going northward with a commer- cial traveller. The conversation was general between the three. At Alnwick station the Duke of Northumberland got out, and was borne away in a showy equipage. "That must be a swell," said the commercial travel- ler. "Do you know who it is " "The Dako of Northumberland," replied his Grace of Buccleuch. "And they say," exclaimed the traveller, "that our nobility is haughty. Why, he talked to two snobs like you and me as though we had been his pals Changes from one profession into snother are not unfrequent, remarks the London World, and with results of a very varied character. The late Dr. Bickersteth le ft his studentship in medicine for holy orders, and became Bishop of Ripon the present Bishop of Lichfield quitted the army for the church militant there are two Q. C.'s now in practice, the one Mr. R. B. Finlay, a doctor of medicine, ann the other l_ pareon, to wit, Mr. Marriott, M. P. Prom law to medicine, however, the change is unusual neverthelese Mr. R M. Routledge is a case in point. He is a barrister of over four years' standing, and an application which he has just made to the Medical Council to be exempted from the preliminary examina- tion h^B, as a matter of course, been granted. The report that Prince Albert Victor of Wales ia to be raised to the peerage as the Luke of Dublin, says the St James' Gaz'.tte requires conformation, his Royal Highnees's father being already Earl of Dablin by crea- tion of her present Majesty in 1850. Such creation is not an absolute bar to a similar one. Substantially identical titles have be- fore nc w been conferred on different persons, the grant of the ex oting earldom of Leicester in 1837, before that of 1784 had become ex- tinct, being a case in point. The number of historijal titles at the disposal of the sover- eign just now is not excessive, especial'y it the choice be restricted as it has been in later times, to titles which have already been borne by princes of the blood. At present there is no Duke of York, no Duke of Gloucester, or of Aumorle. A few weeks will decide the question as to whether the dukedom of Albany and the earldom of Clarence be dormant or extinct. Prince Leopold was the first who ever bore the title of Earl of Clarence. i 1 wv '^^^r- a 'Minute An 1 read this. 1 ou m ly oe tin .M I corns, and if not at pre^sent thev 'U root m the near future.
