rowing heart fliat bqat so sadly in thebosom of his Sbfrowhig c^ild.

The three days ‘were nearly spen't, and well had the’ old piest done bis work.*— The wUuesses had come, all was proved, and Ferdinand De Yere was lord of theEnglish wealth.

Count Antohio had yielded all his gen­erous rival would accept, and secretly left Italy. . ^

The morning. of the third day came, and proudly went the Cojjnt De ^delon through his lordly home;| for that night would the barter of bis faiij young daugh­ter bring all thejwealth he coveted.

As thus, he mused, a paper was placed in bja hands; it was the writing of Count Antonio, and tbps ran:

“ My lordj-i-l-This night, according"to my promise ypur daughter shall wed the heir of Lord Devereux’s unbounded wealih..-rr- Pardon whatever mystery may appear when ne#t we meet. Ask nothing and all shall be explained when the dere'mSny is over.”

“ Some romantic folly,” thought the count; “ I care not what. Me shall have flo cause to chide me, for . not a word will I speak till all is over; now to Alice— she must know of this new whim.”

:-And be passed on to where his daugh­ter sat, pale, and still striving to banish the tender tbpaghfe as they rose in her sor­rowing heart.
