Then she asked my advice about her future plans. She was disgusted with her present life she saidâ€"wanted to leave the stage, and didn’t know what on earth tp do. She could not go to her father; he had held high diplomatic ap- pointments, but in a personal quarrel at cards with the Emperorot' Russia he had permitted himself to strike his Majesty across the table. The result was, he had been sent to the mines in Siberia, and she was left friendless, friendlessl then she would cry, and, by Jupiter, I believe I used to cry too. At last one day she said she had something imporâ€" tant to consult me about, but I must try to be ealmâ€"-would I promise to be calm ? I swore I would, and she told me that she had just had an offer of marriage thereâ€"in the islandâ€"and that the suitor held the highest rank. He had never spoken to her, but had fallen, desperately in love with her on the stage; and his official position making it impossible for him to come to her personally, he had written offering her his heart and hand. She was not at liberty to divulge his name, but I might guess; and said as much as led me to understand that it was either the governor or one 01" the bri- gadiers. Then she cried out, ‘ How pale you are!’â€"â€"but I swear I wasn’tâ€"and ran and got a big glass of sherry, and made me toss it elf. Then she told me to be calm, and asked me if I could hear her to go one, and I said, ‘ 01” course I could.’ She went on and told that. he (meaning the governor or one of the bri- gadiers) was awfully jealous of me, and that hisâ€" she meant his emissariesâ€" were always watching outside the win- dows, and what should I advise her to do. Midday she sizid) in her honor, and presented her with a dia- mond bracelet. Then she asked me to write her some verses; I was ashamed to say I couldn’t, so I got Travers to write some. He was an awfully clever, chaffy fellow, and the poem was full of the big- gest words you ever saw (I didn’t underâ€" stand a word of it); but somehow she didn’t seem to like the verses, and said suddenly, ‘ On your honour, did you Write this '3’ and of course I was obliged to say ‘No,’ and that Fred Travers had written them ; and she would never speak to Fred again. Fred had put some of his horrid ehnfi‘ in them, I do suspect. ‘Now, Donald, I didn’t care a straw about the woman, but somehow the idea of one of those bigwigs wanting to marry her made me prouder of 1101‘ being so taken up with 1110; and I didn’t like the idea of her marrying any one elseâ€" heaven knows why, ‘ All the time I was tired to (3&1 her, but she seemed immensly fon v ‘ ' and I was proud of that and the < thing, and stuck to in; “bi came, mid I (rave . in”! ‘ I ‘ So I said it would be sadfifiuing her youth and beauty to~t0 something or other, and she cried and said I had a noble soul, and that was conclusive; and DOUBLES AN'.

A; 1: ' everything in great style. She was as ’fond of me as ever, but she said she was writing a tragedy and awfully busy. Charles Kean was to act in it, and was so impatient to begin that he gave her no peace; and therefore she could only see me at certain times, and musn’t be seen out with me, or Charles Kean would think she was idling, and it was so im- portant to keep in with him. I smelt tobacco two or three times in her room, and one day saw no end of a swell cigar- ease on her table, with an earl’s eoronet and the letter M on it, and she said Char- les Kean had been there bullyrfiging her about her tragedy, and had Forgotten it in his rage. Then I noticed to her that. ‘ it was odd he should have a coronet and l M on his case; and she laughed and said it was a good jokeâ€"a capital joke; that, Kean had stolen it in fun from Charles Mathews, who, she supposed I knew, had lately been made a count by the French Emperor for his masterly interpretation of Sir Charles Coldstream in French. Well, she was as fond of me as ever; but there was so much bother and mystery and trouble about seeing; her I got sick of it, and left town and went away down to my grandmother‘s in Rutlandshire, promising, however, to see Carlotta be- fore I left for India. I heard nothing of her for three months, and then all of a sudden, her letters came pouring in day 1after day, and I was obliged to tell Qbangers to my grandmother about them. She was on the old tack againâ€"wanted We consult me on a very delicate matter which could not be connnitted to writing; and when was I genre; up to town, and how was I going out to India, what ship, and all the rest or it. I stayed down in Iutlandshire till the last moment; I was going round the Cape in a steamerâ€"I preferred that to overlandâ€"and I did’nt get to town till two days before We were to sail from Giavesend. I found Car- lotta in very ding" ’ lodgings in Greek Street, Soho, this time. and she explained that she was living there to be near the refugees, that there was a conspiracy on foot to rescue her governor from the Si- berian mines, and that she was plotting night and day with the refugees. \Vhile I was with her a villainous- looking 1mm, in his shirlbslocvcs, with a short pipe in his mouth, put his head in at the door without lmocking, and seeing mo, grinned, tapped his nose, and went out, saying something about his name being ‘casy’ and his spirit ‘fly,7 in re- markably good English, though a litth vulgar I thought, considering he was a foreignerâ€"Count Arnold Doldorouski, 9. Pole, she said, and a colonel of Vcavulry once, and who had sworn by the beard of' Ponintowski, or some fellow of' that sort, to rescue her governor from the mine, or perish in the attempt. I notic- ed that her room and the passages were all blocked up with trunks and boxes packed and corded7 and I said to her ‘You look as if you were on the wing like me, Carlottaf and she said, ‘1 am smthe Wing, and liker you than you;- think for,’ and laughed. Then I said. Hussars, then in India. The colâ€" onel couldn’t stop that, you know. He was awfully good when I was going away. He said, ‘ I’m sorry you’re going, Dolly, and we’re all sorry ; I think you’re fopl- ish, but every one must judge for him self. I Wish you luck, and if you wish it for yourself steer clear of that theatriâ€" cal friend of yourfi7 my boy.’ I wish to heaven I had ! ‘Vell, I went borne with six months’ leave to England, and to join my regiment in India when that expired. Where are You ofi’to ‘2’ and she I v ' " "' """7 l ‘ It saved you from that fiend of a woman, ‘by all I can hear ;’ and I blazed out at the colonel and told him that he must retract that word, and he laughed good- naturedly, and said that if I did not like the word, of course he would, but that he was deueed glad that; she was off. That put me on my mettle, and I said that if it suited me to see her, of course I could still do so. And he said ‘ How ?’ and I suid,_‘Go. on leave, of course.’ Then the colonel’s back got up, and he said he would take unconnnon good care I got no leave, ifthat was what I was going; to be at, and lelt me. I was a good deal spoiled by this time and savage, and sick ofMuhu, and I wanted a change, and perhaps I did miss Carlotta. So that Very day I wrote and accepted an exchange I had been offered into the IIiissars,llle1) in India. The colâ€" ‘ Next day I got a fever and was con- jfoundedly ill. Carlotta sent me notes |every dayâ€"two or three times 11-day»â€" and splendid bouquets, and oranges and things; but I was ill for a fortnight, and before I was up again, or able to answer her notes, she and Beatziice had gone. "heir paswges had been taken by the committcix you see, and they were obliged to go. \Vhen I was getting round, the colonel came to see meâ€"he Vase. kind old boy; and af'ter he had asked all about my illness and that, he said, ‘ It was a lucky iliness for you my boy, and all your friends ought to be glad of'ii‘. I said, “Why?” and he said, I T. 1 i ‘ n ~ A she tore up a plnk note7 which I supposed to be his note, and trod upon it, and bawled out, ‘ Love conquers all 1’ Then she gave me another of sherry, and said she had felt certain my feelings would be outraged, and I vowed they were'outrnged, and that I should like to shoot the governor or one of the brigadiers At that moment in came BeatrieeArmine, and didn’t Carlotta look savage and drop into her ? stock, and no linen visibleâ€"which is rather a way Polish Counts have isn’t it? So they hustled about; and got her things stowed away, and her maid under hatch» as; and then the skipper holloaed out, ‘All shmcbontsoffl‘ I heard the Count say to her, ‘Bye-bye; wish you luck mind the rhino,’ which I thought deucch odd and fiuniliar; and he scuttled down ‘She looked very hard at me as she finished, and snid, ‘ Don’t try to dissuade me, dear Adolphus ! bear the pangâ€"46 is for my good.’ And I said, ‘I won’t disv ‘suade you; I congratulate you with all my heart,’ Then she gave a scream and fainted, and had hysteriesâ€"two or three in fiagtvzand the Count came back and put his head in? and said, ‘ You’ll have every blessed bobby in town about the house if you don’t shut up that blnrmed squallil’xg.’ Then she came to at once, and said, ‘Adolphus ! leave me 1 I have been deceived in youâ€"cruel, cruel man 1’ And I said, ‘ \Vlmt ihe deuce had I done?’ and she stamped her foot and soreznned out, ‘ Go viper !’ So I went; and the Count met me at the door and asked mei to lend him five shilling“, which I did; he remarkng that she (Carlotta) seem- ed to be ‘ a little spotty about the back,’ which I then believed to he a Polish Idiom literally translated. Next day I got down to Gravesend, and got all my traps on board. There were only about fiveâ€"andâ€"t.\‘.'enty passengers, but no Cal‘- 1mm ulnmg them. The time was just up, when a beat came off, full of luggage, and there was Curlotl‘a dresqed like an arehduehess and locking really stunning. She had a maid wiih her, who was as drunk as a fiddler, and had to be hoist-ed up with ropes and ihings. The Count was with her too, looking awfully seedy, all in black, with a frockeoat and a black into his boat, and Carlotta put her head over, and said in a loud voice, ‘You will telegraph tho first intelligence from Siâ€" beria.’ I orfly heard the Count’s answer indistincily, there was such a row of steam and things, but it sounded like ‘ Walker !’ and than, the flinlsics regular, 01‘ I’ll splitâ€"l will, by gum! She cxâ€" plaincd to me after, that they (the rel'u- goes and plotters) lmd a cipher and a cant language, which they always used in discussing political secrets, so I con» cluded the Count must have been alluding to some of" the arrangcnmnts for getting; her papa out of the mine. ‘The first night. she only gave me n haughty bow, and wouldn’t; speak a word, and then for a week I didn’t see herâ€" she was 111 in her cabin, like every one else almost; but the first time she nine on deck she Villlicd up to me and held out her hand and said, ‘ Forgiveand for- get, Adolphus ; I Was hasty and unpetu‘ ous, and did not do justice to the disin terested way you concealed your agony : you were brusqueâ€"it was painful to me, but'I should have respected the generous mask with which you covered your disâ€" apointment’ She Wis always harping away about my agony and disapoint- merit, when, in fact. I was as jolly as a - (1 boy; but it didn’t matter to me, and seemed to please her, so what was the odds ? In a, very few days we were on the old M ;1ta fooling again. She never let me out of her sight. All the other women wore as ugly as sin, so all the men paid her no end of'nttention. She was 21‘ showy woman, mind you, and fellows w no hard up for something to do at sea when they’re not eating or sleep- ing. At first she rather took up with “What was she to do? She had no friends. I would not go to her. The attempt to rescue herpnpn from the mine might be abortive. She was dissatisfied with this life, which was a precarious one. Kean had thrown over her tragedy.

I was dreadfully harassed, so I was obliged for the first time, since I have known you, to decide for myself. I am going to India.’ ‘ To India l’ ‘ Yes, to India ;’ and wasn’t it an odd coincidence, she said. But the strangest thing of all was, that she was going in the same ship with Incâ€"t there was a coincidence for me, ifI liked. ‘ They had actually taken her passage in the Golden Fleeceb \Ve agreed that perhaps it was the most extraordinary thing on record; and then I asked her what she was going to do in India. She said that was the delicate matter she had wished to consult mo aboutâ€"that she hoped I would really be calm, and not try to shake her resolution, for that it was all settled, and I had only myself to thank: she was going- to be married. ‘ Married !’ But I didn’t seem to care twopence, and asked, ‘ \Vho to ?’ She said she wasn’t at liberty to divulge the name, hut it began with IV, and perhaps I might guess when she told me that he was a person of the highest oflieial po- sition in the civil service, who had got into trouble about indigo three years ago, But I couldn’t guess; and she said he had been home on furlough about that time, and having seen her on the stage, had fallen desperately in love Wiih her, and had pined ever since in voluntary exrle as one of the Himalayas, much to the regret of the Governor~General and Council, Who had vainly attempted to get him to come down.

I‘m‘ undone! Look there! look there ’ I looked, but 1 could see nothing but the captain’s parrot takingr his evening stroll,- ou the quarterâ€"deck, ‘ What was it ?’ I said. Oh l’ said she sitting down and- panting, with both hands on her heartâ€"- oh! it’s all over now; my character’s gone , that Mrs. Gligsby was looking out' of the cabin door and saw us. 0 Adolé phus, you’ve destroyed me I you wicked, wicked man !’ I swore I hadn’t seen Mrs. Gligsby, and went into the cabin to look after her, and there she was on the of side of the table, with her back tc: the wall calmly playing; whist with the cap- tain and two othersâ€"-â€"so it couldn’t have been her. But Carlotta insisted that Mrs. Glig‘sbv had been there, and had harked buck to the whist all as a blind, for that she cunning and deceitful and viii dicitive, and I would see what I would see. ‘At last we got- to the ‘Sandheads’ and tool: our pilot on board, and our lete t'ers came down and Carlotta. made a tremendous shindy when there were none For her, and had hysterics all the way up the Hooeg ; it was awful the way she went on.

I went to my cabin to! finish my packing and be out of the scrimmage; and, after a bit, went up on deck to see about Carlotta’s affairs, Whom I had lost sight of in the bustle. By Jove, sir! there she wasâ€"sitting huddled up beside the wheelâ€"â€"pale as death, her eyes quite fixed, and with such a look of horror and despair, it seemed to freeze me. I went up to her and said, ‘ Good Godl what’s the matter ?’ and she said, quiet calmly, but in a dreadful voice, ‘ Go away and let me die I’ and then I found that the person in the highest official poa- sition, &e., hadn’t put in an appearance, and, by degrees, that she had no money â€"not a silver; and she and her maid each had a loaf: tie with the steward: Well, what could l do? Of course I paid her bill and drove her to Spence’s Hotel, and established lierthel'e With her woman, and told her not to be unhappy, For that i had lots of tin, and would be delighted to be her banker, till .the per- an in the highest &e., turned up; and. then ldrove ofi‘ to the Great Eastern myself.

Then she told me she had terrible misgivings about the marriage; that she feared she had mistaken her feelings, and that her strength would fail her; that she some- times felt it would be an injustice to the l ‘ person in the highest oficial position in ‘the civil service ’ to give her hand When her heart could never be his. One night in the dusk we were sitting on deck to~ gather, and she was saying all this; and that, as for her own feelings, of course happiness was banished from. her heart- i’br ever, and that probably it would be better if its desolate beatings were stilled for everinore, and she laid at rest in an Orient grave. over which no one would- drop :1 tear; and she cried awfully, and popped her head down on my shoulders.- I was confoundedly cut up, and said, ‘ Don’t cry, Carlotta; its sure to be" all right.

But it was hot water for me after that, all the voyage; it was not pleasant, I can tell you. The only comfort I had was, that all the men were as jealous as iigoI-s of me. As the voyage began to draw to an end she got awfully lov'v and and moping, and cripd very much; and one or two of them. There was a. tea-- planter, and an Indian officer, and a doeâ€" tor she carried on with for a bit; and then, hang it! I got on my mettle, and resolved to show these fellows they hadn’t a chance. 80 I went in for her again in the old way, and made all the others wild, and I liked that. I got her to turn the doctor out of his seat at meals, which was next to mine, and give it up to her, and she sat beside me. the rest of the voyage. Then I used to carry up my armchair-to the deck for her when it was fine, and wouldn’t let her use any other person’s; and if there was a little sea on, I used to give her my arm up and down the deck.
