“ Indeed! Then. if you know Mr. L’Es- vantage, banker of \Vall Street, New York, you should know that he is a. gentleman of honour. But the five minutes are nearly at nu ma. u..--_° .._ V7, purpose. Near him were several other gen- .flemen, one of them the young man I had Mspoken to at the beginning of the voyage. All were writing or ‘ ending. A1 I stood before L’Estrenge, the gentlemen lifted their heads and eyed age inquiringly. "inuanA- After leaving him again, I stood at the 'port hole, breathing the soft air. A gentle touch upon the arm roused me from my con- templation. I turned, and saw one of the stewards with a letter in his hand for me. Greatly surpriued, I opened the envelope, and found the contents ran thus: “ L‘Es- trange has your money. He is a profession- al gambler, working with Confederates. (lo to him ; declare that you know him and his associates ; and th it if he does not restore yrur money, you will bring the police to your assistance, when you reach New York. 33 firm, an'l fear not; for though he is a. men of desperate cum-age, he will not dare to harm you while on thiv ship If you can- not force him to yield by such arguments as suggest themselves to you, use the words “ Henry Evans." ’ 1 read this extraordinary missive over a "dozen of times at least, each reperuaal add- ing to my amaz ament.

I will grant your request, though it is inconvenient. I suppose you want to talk about your brother?” I bowed. L'Estrange rose up, cast a careless glance upon the people sitting round, and led the way down the saloon. We did not exchange ,3 word until he had got into the cabin, which WM amidahips ; then he avid, bolting the door : “ Be quick with your conversation, for 1 shall not spore more than the five min- utes you ask for.” He spoke haughtily, almOst threshenlngly. “hp , -._..__ “ Do not aséiiiné such an air with me,” I farng aygrjly. m“ I ky‘ow you.” 1', run an end.” L’Estrange perceived his advantage, and put his hand on my shoulder to thrust me outside.

Give me the four hundred and fifteen pounds you have taken from my brother.” “Look here, youngman,” said L’Estmnge, coming close to me, and staring hard into my eyesâ€"“ look here. I tellyou. as a gan- tlemam, that I have not got any money of yours ; and, I vow, if you come any of your tricks over me, I will hand you over to the captain as a. swindlirg scoundrel, trying to extort money by threat-s. â€"There is the door, sir ; leave my cabin ” The manner of the man was so imposing, and the evidence of his nature so truculent, that for a few sec- ond: I was almost intimidatid. £0 leave tfiis room; you will nbver put me out by force.

I uttered the words very quietly. I had exhausted all other means to get back my own, and followed the advice of the writer of the letter in my extremity. They struck the gambler with utter dismay. His face became pale and distorted, and he reeled t) and fro, as though a storm had suddenly bursflxpon the sunny sea. As I sianly continued to return his stare, he at length said doggedly ; “ What do you mean to (10 ?" “ That in my concern. I know who you are.” v “ Henry Evomx .'â€"â€"your last game is play- ed l" L’Estranga looked at me in a. puzzled, ex- pectant manner, as if waiting for me to do sometyiqg. _ “ To take four hundred and fifteen pounds onlof Phis_ ghee."

I say simply, that if you give me my money, I leave you to b: punished by other bands than mine.” His eyes dropper} lo the finer, and he sat thinking awhile. Suddenly he ram up, and Said half menacineg : “ l accnpt your terms. ’ Put ing his hand into his breast:- pocket, he pulled out a large leather case ; from this he took a sheaf of Bank of Eng» land notes, and counted four hundred and filftegn pounds upon t1}? gala begigie me.‘ “ Cotint it for {mm-self,” he sald.â€"-“ You may test them as you like,” he added, as I - “I take no draft from aman of your stamp, Mr. L'Eatrange; all your subter- fuges are ugelass.” “ If I had you ashore, I would take the till talk out of you,” exclaimed the man, re- lapsing into a fury. “ Take my draft, or go out of thin.” ” I cannot give it to you ; I swear I cm- not;I have lost all my ready cash. fut since you will not treat me as one gentleman does another, I will give ycvu a. draft upon my firm, to be aid upon arrival.

Then he assumed an amused amiie, saying : “ Well, I have had a pretty fair experience of human nature ; but I tell you, sir, you are the toughest; opponent I have met so far.” “ You shall have it: before ten o’clock to- night," quoth L‘Eatrange, puttirg out his ham! to_y_atify thg pledged wqrds. “ I will noi waiftenvseconds.

Neither your bluatar nor your hypocrisy will turn me from my point, You Have only one argument that can prevail with meâ€"â€" that is, to put four hundred and fifteen pounds in unmistakable currency into my hands.” “Upon my honour as a gentleman, I am very sorry about: this affair. I will see what I can do to get the money from Mr. Barker and the other: who have cleaned your broth- er’s pockets. I give you my promise.” L Estrange rose, as if to end the interview, and looked at me with a reassuring smile. I lwghed, a. acornful, stinging lung‘s. of contempt. L Estrenge was nonpluased. , , “ I accept your wan: to the knife,” I (said. “ Cull}, let us pl*ce the matter before the up min and the saloon pmsangers. I have only made a format demand for my money so for. I thought that you would see the wisdom of returning your plunder, when you diucovered that I knew you and your profeseinn. I do not want the trouble of prosecuzii'g you when w“. land at New York. Ihave urgent busiszessto attend to elsewhere, and I would prefer that other hands than mine put you under the jxiier’s key. How- ever, since you decide to play the innocent and the respectable, I must join in your comedy. It certainly will he the best for society. You and your confederncs on this chip are at my mercy. War to the knife, it 5118.11 be.” I turned to unfasten the door. “ Stop 1” said L‘Estrange uneasily. “ Are you going to rector: the money?" “Sit down, and let us talk the nutter over. I have a. hasty temper, and your re- quest has made me very angry. Let us be friends, I really am a greater victim than your brother; I have lost quite a heap of money. Why did he think I was a pro- fessional gambler? Why hm: he acted so unjustly towards me? I am no pretender to respectability, I assure you. Here is my card. When you reach New York, you will find in ten minutes that I am what 1 any I am.” “ I am a desperate mam, Mr. L'Estrange. You and your gang have ruined me, and bloated my brother's career at the start. If I had thought that an appeal to your pity would have mused a restoration of all we have in the world, that appeal would have been made. But the professional gambler has no heart and no conscience, except that whichis roused by the policeman. Yet, why am I bandying words with you ? Give me the mpney." “ I do not take promissory notiés in such transactions as ours,” I said sternly. "The mongy !” 7 dark eyes as he said 1 You msy thank my self-command. young man, for not kicking you out of this, as I would awhining hound For your brother’s sake, I will not do you any harm. But if I had you ashore, I would give you a lesson thnt would teach you to behave like a. gentleman. Do not provoke me any more. Leave my cabin.” “ I will never leave itvtill you have given me the money; or if you go out, I will follow you, and before all the passengers, I will repeat what I have said. I care not; for your scowls, for your hatred, for any harm your vile ingenuity can devise against me.” “ Then a: you daclare war to the knife. you mad faol, you shall have it,” cried L'Estrmge with a burst of improcations. “ I am known on the ship to msmy gentle- men and to the captain. I shall claim pro- tcc'lon from mscoundrel who geeks to fasten a quarrel upon me, to extort a. large- sum of money : and when we get into the Hudson, I will put the commbku on you. If it costs mo 3 thlussmd d4: laws, I, will shut you up in jail for the) next few yem‘s‘ " I wont to see how Theodore was getting on. It was now dusk, and the lamps were being lit in the corridors. Stewards and other ships’ servants were bustling about ,' passengers were moving towards their cab- ins and up the stairs. For a. little while I could not make my way through the press ; while thus fixed, I felt something placed in my hand. In the imperfect light and amid so many people, it was impossible to know who the giver was ; and beyond the feeling that the object was a piece of paper, I was ignorant of what I had received. Having got free, I went to my cabin as fast as pos- sible. I had had one mysterious and fate- ful missive before that day ;and my natural cautiousness bade me wait until I was clear of observers, before examining the paper I I was astonished at the intensity of the emotion which these simple events caused. What was less uncommon than for an invaâ€" lid lady to desire to have a few minutes‘ promenade ata quiet interval ‘2 If she “ans” :1. very distant and chance acquaintance, nurely she had the right to do 3”. Besides, many people behave eccentrically on board nhip. But what did her terrified looks mean 1 H d her illness produced delirium ‘3 As for L'Estrange, nothing was more nat- ural than that he should need a walk upon deck, a‘ter his excitement and discomfi- tnre. YetI could not get rid of the shadowy feeling that slowly grew upon me, that some dark link connected the man and woman who had passed from me, like living ghosts. Against the feeling, however, were the facts that I recalled. Did not L’Estrange say, when he and Theodore had broken in upon my conversation withthe lady, that he did not h now French ? and both he and the lady ap- pearedto be absolute strangers to each other. continued to ponder over the conflict of our intuitions and the realities, which seem- ed to destroy their significance, until the thrmg of people ascending from the dining- tahle ended my metaphysiolal occupation. held. Theodore w; s sleeping in thut heavy man- ner which follows great exhaustion of bodily and mental owers. I was greatly relieved. Gradually raised the flame of the lamp and turned my eyes on the piece of paper. It was crumpled and damp by the hand that had conveyed it to me. The contents were as follows : “ Do not hold any conversation with your fellow-passengers for the rest of the voyage. Stay in your cabin as much as possible. When you reach New York, take the first train for the West. Dangerous men surround you. Keep your brother un- der your eyes constantly. Do not reveal what has taken place to-day. Burn this, now that you have read it.” The last injunction was the most difficult of all. I did not dare to strike a match. I tore the paper in the smallest fragments, and finding the port-hole of the little cor- ridor still open, 1 threw the scraps away at short intervals. Having settled the matter to my satisfac- tion, I stood calmly watching the sun, pois- ed over the western waters, for it was now evening. The placid ocean heaved in soft rolls, as if it were changed from water to oil. Upon them the eifulgenoe glowed so marvellously that I held my breath in an ecstasy of delight. The world seemed al- most too sublime for humanity, with all its baseness and mean contentions. Aprayer of thanks and adoration burst from my lips. It was the first perfect sunset at sea that I had witnessed. In the full fervour of my emotion. a female form passed across the deck before me and eclipsed the sun. The incident annoyed me. Slowly the form passed, and the glowing orange fires fell dazzling upon my eyes again. But the charm of the scene was gone. The spell of nature’s magic was not to be recovered by wishing. Again the female form eclipsed the sun. I turned to leave the deck. The figure advanced towards me. We had al- most met, when I recognised the lady with whom I had formed the only acquaintance out of all the passengers. I was about to address her. when she passed me, as if to- tally oblivious of my presence. lVondering what I had done to deserve this slight, I turned to look at her, and almost collided with L’Estrange. He was pale as only ex- treme passion can blancha man of full habit and sanguineous temperament. I thought he was irritated at meeting me ; but be- yond a darkling frown, he did not recognise me, and passed on. Dinner had been served for some time, so hat the deck was almost bare of passengers. Not wishing to be slighted again by the lady, I went to the cabin entrance and sat down. A few minutes afterwards, the lady appear- ed ; she threw an imploring glance upon me from her dark and sunken eyes, and desc .nd- ed the companion-stairs with a swiftness that was extraordinary for one so wasted by disease. Still more amazed by this behav- iour than by the other, I stared after the retreating figure, when the burly body of L‘Estrange blocked out the light from the doorway ; for the fraction of an instant he seemed to hesitate;or, rather, I read the impulse that shot through him as he saw me. But he did not stop ; like one follow- ing a beckoning hand, he disappeared. examined the water-marks and then the “ $99911” 9f the notes. _ “_They_ar_e genuige.” “ Yes, they are not forgéd, I “perceive. Now} yake my leavg." “ Before we part,” said L'Eatrange with suppressed passionâ€"“ before we part, let me say that if you deal fair and square with me until we get ashore, I will let bygones be bygones. Remember this, however, that I have many friends, and that. if you put me to the necessity to find you, I will have you killed, even if I am in the fastest prison in the world. Even if you are the chief detec- tive of England, you will mph escape them that will find you ” There was no mietek- ing the fierce, revengeful nature of the man; evidentiy, he was capable of plotting the demlinat mischief. “ If you will just suppose that I have no fuxther interth in you, shatyuu are practic- ally non-existent for me, then you will understand that your threats are waste of breath. Allow me to pass out;7 \thh these words I quitted the cabin ; and thus terminated the mast rmnarkable interview of my Hf). I wst hurrying to tell Theodore of the aaiounding recovery of the money, and to remove the awiul misery of the boy. when the thought occurued to me, that such a revehtiun might not be prudent. Theorlore never Cullld keep a. senret, and he would, in spite of my cautioning. divulge the charaa‘ ter of L’Eatmnge; and this might lead to unknown troubles und delays when we got to New York Instead of going to our cab- in, l rammed to the deck, and walked for a considerable time, planning a. method of telling the story efoer we hxd got weil on the way to California.

Mrs. Spook, when her pastor called the other day, hastened to find a Bible for him to read. She could find only a few soiled leaves up in the garret, which she handed to the pastor, remarking : “ Why, really I didn’t know we were so near out.’ Have, therefore, no fears, and proceed to your destination calmly and in peace. If you ever recall my memory, pray for my peace beyond the grave. Adieu.” It was many months before Theodore re- covered from the illness which followed his escspsde on the Atlantic. Though matters had taken so providentisl a. turn, and though I lavished upon him all my tenderness, he could not forgive himself. The bright, self- oonfident, self-assertive boy that left Eng- land was gone, and a grave, silent, gentle man had taken his place. But he is slowly gaining cheerfulness, as We prosper ; and when my mother and sisters join us, I hope he will again be gay, for their dear sakes. Lightning is reflected for one hundred and fifty to two hundred miles, and thunder can be heard for twenty or twentyvfive miles. “ The language in which I bid you ndieu for ever will enlighten you as to who I am. Through you, I have been able to do one good dved before going from this world, in which I have done so many evil ones. I thank heaven for the opportunity. I know that I only reach America to die. But I shall leave behind me one, who, though lost in sin and devoted to the injury of his fellow-creatures, will yet have to die also. L’Estrsnge isthat oneâ€"my husband. Now, I pray you, as 'l have been good to you, not: to take any steps against him ; I wish him to he with me in my last moments ; perhaps then I may, by God’s mercy, induce him to return to honour and honesty. He once was good and kind, though now a despersfe- 1y wicked man. But, as 1 still possess some slight influence over him he has promised me not to harm you. He knows that I re- vealed his real position to you ; for the steward who gave you my first note told him afterwards. L’Estrange will not harm you ; he'hss sworn it, upon what is sacred to him. At laat we reached New York. I shall say nothing of my anxiety regarding Theo- dore, who had been carried from the ship to a cab, so prostrate and dewapnirirg was he. I will only relate the concluding incident of our most momentous voyage, which cleared up the mystery of my unknown friend. It was a final note, hastily given to me as I took my seat beside my brother on leaving the steamship wharf. It was written in French, and ran thus : Who was this strange correspondent that knew’my aflairs so intimately, and who was so eager to befriend me? I could not fix up- on any one on the ship save the lady, with whom I had had two conversations only. If she was tulaylng the part of guardian angel, Why? Further, if she had written the two notes-~and they were in the some handwritingâ€"she must be connected with the desperadoes she warned me against 1 Could that poor, suffering, almost dying woman he one of the Vilest pests of the hu man race? The mere idea seemed an insult to one so refined, so gentle, so compassion- ate. Undiecoverable, however, as ?he cor- :es_ ( nd at might be, I determined to follow the Counsel I had received, and to the letter In thirty or moxe hours we should be at New York ; and under any circumstances 1 must keep Theodore constantly under my eye, until we were clear of those who had so many reasons to fear and to hate him, as Well as myself. But; the unhappy boy had no Wish to leave the cabin, or indeed his berth. Ramona devoured him with relentless tooth He grew pale and haggard, as if in a rapid con- sumption.
