I fear so.’ At this moment, fortunately for me, the carriages, which had been moving along at the slow pace which is supposed to be agreeable to grief, during this conversation. stopped near the cemetry, and we all adjourned to the grave. Near it was the empty coffin severed with a black pull. lstood by while the funcralscrvice was go- ing on, and really, at first, there was something so ludicrous in all this pomp and ceremony :tnd'well got~up grief over nothing but deal boards and brass nails. that lcould scarcely refrain from laughter. But when Lord Eâ€"â€"~, the tears really in his eyes, came forward when all was done, and in a hoarse voice said: ‘ We have lost a good friend in the very flower of his youthâ€"one whom I had learned to love, and who can never be replaced in incâ€"it diligent and hearty assist- Oh joy! oh joy!

I heard her bitter sobs for a while, andâ€"â€"yesâ€"hcr prayer, her fervent prayer-“that she too might follow me soon. Then she rose slowly and sadly. She turned and saw me, and at first her face was deadly pale. Then recovering herself, she looked strangely at me, as ifto ask why a stranger intruded upon her grief.â€" I made a great effort to Conceal my voice and my emotion, and then spoke. ‘ Mndemoiselle,’ I said, bowing respectfully, ‘pardon my intrusion. This is the grave of my best friend. You can guess whyl came thither. But when I found you here, know- ing as I did that my poor friend had no relation: in Municli,l immedi- ately guessed that you must be Ma- demoiselle Frankenstein. Am I right in my conjecture 1’ She colored violently,cven in spite of the deadly whiteness of her sun- ken cheeks, and replied with dig- nity, ‘You are right, sir; but per- mit me to ask what reason you had for this strange conjecture 'l’ ‘I will tell you. You may not perhaps be aware that I was present at the death of my poor friend. I was the only person there besides his servant. He charged me with a message to youâ€"â€"’ i ‘Oh l’ (she pressed her hand to her own apartment- 'I‘o~night you will see hini.’ I turned hurriedly away. She called after me, butl did not return. I felt that this assumption of mys- tery, and this excitement of a vague hope, was the best way to prepare her. ’ ' When Iliad good some distance,l looked back. I saw her standing over the empty grave, with her head sunk upon her bosom. What. prayer,what wish was she uttering? I now tirade haste to get back to my own lodgings, so as to resume my real character. and to prepare for the evening. I had scarcely en- tered the ports-cochre of the large house in which I had lived before my death, when I heard a joyful. uproarious barking in the yard.. It was Cesar, mv own dog, my best friend. ‘Ah I’ thought I. ‘ what is human friendship compared with this ?. All my friends, even Ida her- self, have been deceived bv a mere wig and moustache; but the dog we kick and boat and despise knows even the sound of my’ distant feet- steps.’ 1 went to him, found him chained in the yardâ€"he had never been chained when I was aliveâ€"- received his wild caresses, and un- loosed him. i ‘ Ahl’ I thought. ‘this is a strange way of fulfilling my dying injunctions.

My death had not only revealed my true friends, but, far more glorious, had given me the heart that I prized above all, Still, with a perversity peculiar to my nature, I doubted ofthc whole truth of what I had heard, and, to be brief, I resolved to judge for myself. The day passed, and when even- ing came I had made up my mind to go and call at the Frankensteins. in my disguise, and announce my- self as a friend of my deceased sclf, charged by myself to carry some message to my own lady-love. The scheme was bold, but 1 determined to try it. Asl went, however, I thoughtl would just look in at the cemetty. You probably know that it is the custom abroad to decorate the graves of your friends and relations With flowers and immortelles. Now 'I had no relations in Munich and lvcry few foreign friends who cared lsufhciently about me to undertake this. Still,l thought that my faith- ful valet, whom I had been astonish- ed not to see at the funeral, might possibly bring his little token to a master he had loved so much. I determined at any rate to see if any one caredahout me. Just as I was entering the grave- yard, I saw two figures before me, one of which, clothed in deep mourning, I instantly recognized as that of Ida. I was amazed. V‘v’liat friend was she going to weep and pray forl I remembered that her grandmother, was buried there.-â€" T’nis possibly explained it. But full of vague hope that this was not her object, I follmimd IlCl. She first went to the keeper, and presently I saw him conducting herâ€"yes, Oh, joy lâ€"to my grave. I Islipped from monument to mo- nument. and finally concealed my- self uehind one from which I could watch her movements, The other figure, which was her maid, carried a basket of fresh flowers.

He ima- ginedâ€"I know not whether rightly or notâ€"that you were attached to another person. But such 'was his devotion, I may almost say his mad- tbat be bid the warn you, for iyour sake, that he felt certain-that he knew it by an inward instinctâ€" that he should be with you after his death.’ I I was so fervont in uttering these words, that my voice resumed IIS natural tone in spite ofmyself. She started as she heard it, and her pale cheek grew paler yet. Site stopped and looked me steadily in the face, and as she gazed her own became more and more troubled. I felt I could not endure it much longer. ‘You would be happy,’ I said, hurriedly, ‘to see him once more, would you not 7’ ‘ Yes, yes!’ she cried. ‘But, oh! how your voice resembles his, and though it is dark, I seem to see some likeness even in your face. You are an Englishman. Tell me if you are not his brother, or someâ€"J She stopped still, gazing on me intently, with a look of uncertainty and almost of dread. I felt a tan« talizing desire to tear off my dis- guise, to reveal mv living self, and throw myself at her feet, but noâ€" I saw the ravages grief had made. I knew that this shock would be too- much for her, and in gratitude for her love I made a strong effort and restrained my eagerness. ‘You are not wmng,’ I said, again disguising my voice, ‘I am a relation, btit I can not now explain how. I have still, however, to complete my message to you. It is a strange one ; prepare yourself to , bear it.’ ‘I am prepared; go on.’ she re- plied, but in a voice so tremulous that it belied her words. ‘It was this : he bids me say that death is a strange thing,a deep mys- tery which none of us understand. He felt that he was dying, but he knew he might live again.’ ‘Yes, yes, and I shall see him again. I know, butâ€"’ ‘You Will. .You havo only to name an hour to receive him, and he will be with you alive.’ ‘ ‘Alive! ~ What do you mean, sir? You are jesting on a sacred How dare you, sir, come the world over for joviality. but still I thought this going a little too far. I found the outerdoor open. and. walking in. opened that of the dining-room ; and there, to my amaZement, amidst an uproar of in- toxication, with glasses rattling on the table, and the room filled with a dense smoke from some dozen pipes, stood my faithful valet, addt'essinga speech to some ten or' twelve grooms. couriers, butlers, powdered mcrcuries, and sleek French cooks, from the embassy and the houses of the nobility. I was certainly more amused than annoyed, and thinking it just possible that it might be the custom in Munich to hold a wake after a master’s death, I bowed to the company. ‘ Don’t let me disturb you, gon- tlemen,’ Isnid, very blandly, ‘my business will do at any time.’ ‘ I’m glad to hear it!‘ cried Karl from the end of the room, and more than three parts drunk, ‘ I’m not much in the humor for business just now. But don’t go away, my friend. Come in. bring yourself to anchor, and take a glass of port~-very fine portâ€"too.’ I took a seat mcekly, and a ‘gen- tlcman ’ in plush and powder did me the honor to pass me the decanter which contained my own suberb wine, which had been bottled in 1795, and which those rascally va- lcts were pouring down their throats in tumblers! No wonder they were rather unsteady. Meanwhilc‘l was observmg my very faithful valet. He was cer- tainly magnificently got up. He 'was not content with having ar- rayed his person in the very cream of my wardrobe, in the most ‘ chaste ’ of my ‘continuations’ and the most delicate of my vests, but he had gone to the extent of mim- icking my ‘get-up’ in every part:- cular. By dint of a liberal supply of my Macassar, he had given to his naturally stubborn hair all the elegant twists and curls of my own negligc locksâ€"a style wliichwas then just coming into fashion. The large frill. the most recherche I pos- sessed, was disposed in the same careful, careless manner which it was generally supposed I was wont to study; though with my dying breath I will assert that I never spenttwo minutes over its arrange- ments. Then he had drawn on with considerable difficulty :1 pair of my Paris gloves of the most deliâ€" cate lavender hue. which I kept cx- pressly for the purpose of going to court in; and in his hands thus re- ducedâ€"he had not succeeded in bringing the buttons to meetâ€"he waved, with all the abandon Of a young exquisite, a handkerchief of the choicest cambric, whichâ€"dell it not in Munichâ€"l had stolen from Ida herself. This was too much for me. But I was now accustomed to . must“: .. . . retrain my passions, and I bore.“ all with the most Christian humility. In the other hand he waved one of my sixty-*Ihilling Havanns, took " a slight pufl'at ‘it, and‘then throwing it down with an. inimitable air of disgust, exclaimed, "Thesecigat's is not worth a fard'en’--'a jest and phrase which elicited'thc admirationX of all his compeers. ‘ Gentlemen,’ he then began, still waving the sacred cambric, and with his eyelids evidently Weighed down by the fumes of my old-pert. ‘I will resume my observmiom.

I have only to propose a toast, in which I am sure you will all unite, ‘ To my late friend, Mr. Gâ€"-â€"â€"â€"-, and may he rest in peace forever.’ _ ' For about ten minutes after this lively discourse there, was a conti- nuous uproar ofapplauseand health- drinking, mingled with numerous epithets applied to myself, which were neither choice nor flattering. and one individual near me remarked that ' he was doosed glad the old boy was under the ground, and he hoped a certain gentlemen in black would take care of him,’ to which I replied, ° Indeed, are you I’ When the uproar had subsided a little I got up. ‘1 rise to return thanks,’ I began: but here I was assailed Wllh an in- discriminate clamor. and cries on all sides of ‘ Shut up 1’ ‘ Turn him out!’ ‘ Hold your jaw l’ and ‘ Put his nose in a bag, dol’ from the Eng. lishmen. while phlegmatic ‘ Donner- wetters’ and ‘Potztansends‘ from the Germans, kept me silent for some minutes.
