man of generous dispo- siijuus but haughty and fierce in temper his early poverty and an ambition coo stanlly crossed and baffled had given a dark and menaciog shade to the brighter quali ties of his character somewhat of this might be easily discernible in bis bearing and aspect aod though be was small and spare of person there was that io bis dark eyes his proud forehead and ao air at once shy and imperious which testified those angrier and more vindictive proper ties of nature that prudent men will oot willingly arouse be tbis as it may be could at least be softened and beloved clara with a fervour a depth and a pas sion of wbich she iu returning bis affec- tioo could not even dream there was a retired and remote spot at one end of the wild chase which surrnuod ed claras abode in which the lovers were accustomed to meet hither vavasourwho resided several miles distant would ride oo a black horse whose speed aod beauty are yot traditionally preserved and tying his steed within a thick wood at a little dis tance proceed to the trystiogspot it was a deep and rugged glen surrounded by old trees chiefly pollards and overrun with fern which grew in that place with a pe culiar and rank luxuriance none ever disturbed them in that place of rendezvous even the deer seemed to shun it no path was witbin nearly a mile of its vicinityaod the neighbouring peasants attached to the gleo

that vavasour evinced heightened the spi rit of clara from its usual tearfulness and ber loveperceiving bis advantage did not neglect to press it my beloved clara said be as her head leaned upon his bosom m let me prove to the world the sincerity of rny love if you marry without your uncles consent you will lose your fortune can you dear est conseut to the sacrifice show that yuu love me beyond these calculations and let us fly i do not conceal from you my poverty but at least i have quite sufficient ltf ttlppwt wj ttfctt ftm fcuvflwaw name a peaceful obscurity and a heart that will seek to

attachment by my own dejection aod un- happiouss let us wait consider dear walter it is but a few mooths since we have loved and my uncle has perhaps a right to appeal to time name him not said vavasour fierce ly m he has oo right to contemn the alli ance with one equal to himself io birth with the rudeness and disdaio that he has evinced to me but for your sake i had but no matter what i would say clara is this every one sees your uncles parti ality lo henry bayntun every one be lieves that that ruiued profligate will ulti mately marry you do clara have pity upon me i do not mistrust

more to me than all said clara tenderly then fly clara wept and did not answer so bold a step seemed to her young fancy uomaidenly aod exposed to a thousand in terpretations wbich she recoiled from en countering at length a compromise was made and it was agreed that clara should communicate with her uncle once more aud should firmly assure him that if he persisted in withholding his consent she should conceive herself compelled iojust ice to the disinterested suit of vavasour to submit to all sacrifice and marry with out ao approbation wbich she could not forfeit happiness toobtaio with this they parted thesiogular will which bequeathed her property to clara bad decreed the estates if forfeited by bor marriage without sir fredericks consent to a distant relative so that io neither case was the uncle be nefitted by the neices conduct it was this which gave the lovers some bope that he might at length be persuaded to with draw ao oppositioo unavailing at all ha zards and in nn event advantageous to himself that very eveniog clara sum moued cnurage and represented to her guardian all that she had promised vava sour to attempt he was artonished by the firm and desperate tnne she assumed for she had been deeply wrought upoo by va vasours remonstrances and fresh from his exhonatioo she displayed a courage aod decision wholly contrary to her cha racter love makes miracles though alas they are brief ones sir frederick at first attempted the imposing and severe manner he had hitherto found successful with his niece convinced at last of its failure at the present time he dissembled his chagrin and observing with a con strained kindness in his tone that he must give tbe subject mature consideration that he was actuated solely by the desire of his neices happiness and what he knew must have beeo the wishes of bis brother he left the apartment he fouft bayntun below in the room generally appropriated to sir frederick and lost bq time in communicating to him thestrang ru unlookedfor determination that clar had evinced the more cold possessed m listened to him with incre- dulityand even atthe last with indifference these fancies of resolution said he are common t women they never last long assume a frowning brow and a harsh tnne tomorrow aod you will subdue her again but why atfvjse you who know your policy ao well f this pefcey severe as it was sir frede rick trejthick then relentlessly put in practice but clara had been so exalted beyond herself by the generosity and the pleadings af her lover and that exaltation was so mo rained by interview and letter that ihreafe taunts anger contempt were all and utterly in vah worn out with thera however she did at length allow them to produce their effect uiioo her tem per not he effect which sir frederick hoped for one month said she retreating from the room jo which their altercatioo had been held 41 month i give you to retract your opposition if oot retracted i will not be swayed hy it noy

related the past rrene bayntun employed himself in carelessly turning over some books on the table do for heaveos sake cried trego thick put those foolish books aside and listen to me stay said bayntun 4 are these your favourito volumes or do they amuse the solitude of your niece pshaw novels i buppose they ore hers to before racter they are nearly all of the super stitious order of romance ghosts witches sorcerers nay she roust be curious in the matter for here is one hook drawn from your musty shelves below that treat of witchcraft scientifically pointing to glanvills celebrated volume and pray he pretty mark is set in one of the most utyof esting records of the impossible aod if it be so what in heavoos uamd is that to us we have uotbiug to do with witches no but not so fast we may have le us ascertain whether clara is of a oatucti to delight in and to be worked upoo hy these legends if so we may hit upon e scheme that shall drfve her into my arms you koow tregothick cootinued bayo- tuo that a friend of mine a noted man of pleasure and of wit having arrived at that pass io which ao heiress is a pill to he taken as a necessary preventive against the necessary disease called ruin by means df a juggling quean a black cloth and a largr mirror exhibited himself to a rich lady of quality as the shadow of her intended hus band aod the fool was deceived and did actually marry ibe man because she fan cied herself destined to him now some scheme or other of thai nature might not work ill for u eh now you speak of itsaidtregothick slowly i recollect that clara has beeo always under strong impressions of the sut peroatural when she was a child sin- could not sleep alone without shrieking ai loud and fancying she saw specrres herj maid to this day sleeps in the same ehami her with ber and j remember well too that in her rides she can never pass n gyp sy without having her fortune told her a girlish infatuation truehut ajpowerful handle let us con aider let us conutlet us devise from that day sir frederick tregothick laid aside his severity to his niece he seemed to seek every opportunity to conci liate her affection his voice look maoner were all softened into an urbanitythat was the more effective inasmuch as his beariog was usually abrupt and hard bayntun too as if his suit were now hopeless ab sented himself from the house tregothick even spoke to her of vavasour he allow ed his merits but he dwelt oo his defects above all he enlarged on the ferocity aod heat of his temper artfully perhapsselect- ing above all others a charge which was peculiarly calculated to appal aod stagger in her love a creature so habitually timo rous as poor clara and which it must bo owned was perhaps juster in the main than any other accusation tregothick could have alleged against her lover va rious litlle impetuosities that had often jar red fearfully oo claris nerves now occur red to her with double force she even shuddered as she recalled them and every day tregothick had some new anecdote of vavasours irritability or sternness which he seemed to drop into her ear in the kindest manner and for the most friendly purpose one day after a conversation of this sort clara walked alooe and musingly into the park when she had got at some lit tle distance from the house she perceived a strange figure approaching towards hur it was an old mao in a moorish or at least eastmrodress ins face was sallow but not brnmzed to the colour that should have cor responded with his attire stopping as he reaclhed the young lady with a deferential air the swung from his shoulders a box contminine trinkets lace c and asked resptectfully and in an accent that was ra ther italian than aiternif be could tempt ber no purchase tlhe triokets were of quaint and foreign workmanship and to each that she noted the pedlar if so he might be called assured her some occult and peculiar virtue be longed one was a talismao against poison anotheragainst fever a third preserved tbe constancy of a beloved object and a fourth gave a quartan ague to au enemy as she listened with a smile to theae assurauces the man loweriog his voice said and madam hy means of this small machine pointing to a little square box which i would on no account part with i can call up the shadow of future eyentsaud declare to one so desiring the ordinances of fate more especially he added as he saw the ioterest he had excited more especially i cao forewarn the unconscious of tbe un- seeu dangers of which they are threatened so that they maybe enabled to shun the pe rils that would otherwise ensnare them indeed said clara seriously io spite of herself that must he themost valuable of all theartsofdevination generally seers profess only to show us what iuevitably must happen 11 a ceremony painful without benefit said the stranger one that i never coun sel the mass of the world to undergo only those destined to great acts or great emi nence should foresee the inevitable future in them such foresight produces the solemn and high wrought tone of mind that be comes the part they art to play oo earth but wbo is there that stands not in need of a warning true said clara wistfully and in what manner can you foretel the daogers by which we are threatened by what is the type nf substance sha dow within the womb o time lie certain dim and vague embryos uncertainties on which fate hath as yet set no seal these i can evoke may i give you madam a proof of my art will it oot greatly terrify me said clara giving way to hier curiosity nay scarcely if you

evening yes madam assuredly come then to the hall and we will put you to the proof the man bowed low and clara cootinu ed her walk but her mind was restless and disturbed her thoughts could dwell only on the comiog exhibition she longed yet dreaded the arrival of the fatal hour jt was true as tregothick had said that she was weakly alive to tbe ioflueoce of aught that appeared to betoken a preternatural agency in her first childhood the tales of nurses had instilled in her ductile imagina tion that fascinating poison which the men tal frame can never afterwards wholly cast from its system her fancy easily excit ed had peopled the dark withpcctres in every moodier impulse of nature she yet tremblingly shuddered fc the wrath of the cloudfiend and the innely churchyard instead of the quiet and holy haven for the wearied and the sorrowing seemed to her saddened credulity hut the haunt of the rcmless spectre and the pining chuit a she grew up this early tmd unhappy bias of
