If his object had been robbery, probably he : had decided from my rough appearutico that 1 was too poor a unu to be worth the trouble. But after all, I thought probably he spoke the truth. A man may have such a voice without being a highway man, no doubt. Bo I went homeward, and soon found myself under shelt er, and partaking, of a warm aud savory sup Mj mother was there and uiy brother Ben. Jlcn was a great strapping fellow, who could beat any other boy of his age for miles around ?f it came to wrestling or boxing, apd as good humorcd n b?y as' evqr lived ; .a boy always to ?mother and I, though he had exercised his' -.right to vote already iu oifc- Presidential elec tion. ,\Vhon supper was over, and wc had ?hatted for an hour,' wc wont up stairs togethor. *The moment Ben's head touched the pillow, he always went to sleep. That night, I fol lowed his example. Butt did not sleep don< without a dream?a dream in which I f?[lt rough grip upon my arm, und was arouse jk cry in my cars. ?"Wako up! You aro wanted at tho roads." . . It was so real, so talpable, that wh started broad awake, I actually believed aomu one wus in the room ; tho man wh tended robbery or violence. But when Arisen, and lit my lamp, tho room was ot except myself and Ben, who lay snorin his pillow. I went to tho door; it was locked. I to the window^ tho crush of rain ag. ni pains wus all I heard. I evon weut uoro passage to my mother's room. She was a there had been no unusual sound, sh aure. Only' a dream born of my mcotinG the *trange man in tho road, I felt, had awa fatted lite. 1 weut to bed and fell asleep tjrgain. Again X was awakened by the samo words, : tthis time shrieked in my car by au unearthly woioe. " Wake up, wuke up. You aro wanted nt the crose'xqadV' ; I wus on my feet once uioic, und caught Ben's hnnd au he came over towards my bed. ""What ails you ?" ..ho cried. "Nothing/' said I. "Did you hear a voice ?" "Yours," said Bou, "yelling woke mo up; you fairly frightened me." "Hen," said I, "wait till I light a lamp; I heard another veicc; Must be some ouo in the horn j or outside." So 1 again lit a lamp, but we searched in vaiu. "Nightmare," said 13., vhon I told hiiii my story. f "Ben," said I, "what is there at tho cross roads; "A house," said B. Ho hud lived in the neighborhood a long while, and I not long. "One little house, beside two oat trees and a fence. An old man lives there?a rich man, nnd a bit of a miser, they say. Iiis grand daughter keeps house for him." "Beu, that fellow may have meant harm to them. 1 may be wanted at tho cross roads." "Brother," said Ben, "goto sleep. , You had a nightmare/' aud Ben plunged in bc tweeu the bluukets, and wus snoring again. I also, iu ten minutes, slept as soundly. us before, but the awakening soon came again. I opcued my eyes, to see a girl standing at the tout of my bed. A girl in whites robes, with goldeu hair all about her shoulders, who wrung her hands and cried : "Oh, wake up, you are wanted at the cross roads." .This time I starte 1 out of bed, bathed in a cold persporutiou. I trembled like a leaf. 1 had no doubt that I had received supernatural warning. "Beu," I cried, "Ben, for tho third time I have becu told that I am wanted at the cross roads, and I am going." Aud I began to dress myself as speedily as possible, listening the wdiile to the storm rag ing wilder und wilder thau ut any other period rdncc its commencement. Ben icmouetruted with me in vain. At lust he ulso began to huddle on his clothes. "If you huve gone mad, I must go with you and tako euro of you/' ho said, VlJut tfuncy another ; iran, goiug out in a^ n>%rmn^VrWiiiVH; to ttitf'^fea?" rottus,' becauso a nightmare'caused him to do so, and what you think.of him?" I saiiTiiothiug. All I could have answered would have been : "I am compelled to go j I must go. * I-dare not refuse, whatever may be thought of mo ?" In ten minutes we.were splashing.through the mud aud rain along the road. It was perfectly dark; now and then a blaziug red star in the distance told us that a lamp was beaming through the ruiu in some cottage window,' but otherwise' we would-' not''have becu conscious of ,our proximity to any habita tion whatever. At last, neariug the spot whot'O tho road from S-crosses tho road to V-,wo wcro indeed in as solitary n place as can be imagined. The house, which abutted on tho very angle' of the roads, called ' in familiar parlance the Cross lload, was tbo only one for some dis tance iu either direction, aud certainly on such u uiglit we were not "likely to meet many travelers. All was quiet as the grave. We stood quite still. In a moment., B. broke out in one of his wildest laughs. "Well," be said, "how now?"?Will you go homo now aud have another nightmare'!" But hardly had the. words escaped his lips, when a shriek broke on the air und a womuu's voice, plainly comiug from tho interior of the cottage, cried: "Help! help! help!" "Ben," said I, "we are wanted at the cross roads," and then understanding each other, without moro words we made nur way to the window, through which a light shone. A mus lin eurtuin draped the panes, but through it we saw an awful sight. An old man lay on the floor, and over him bent a ruthian, clutching his throat, and hold wcro wanted at the cross roads." The old man was not a miser, but ho bad saved somo few thousand dollars ior his old ago, aud living more plainly then ho need have done, -hud given riso to the rumor, and so brought' the burglars to the cross roads in the hope of booty. The gill, a beautiful creature of scvcutcen( j was his grand-daughter, uud as nd story is I acdcptiblo " to the lady reader without a'flavor of romance, I will tell thctu, that she bceamo iu after. years, not my wife, but the'wife,of my darling brother Ben.

I will send a lad ,to{ show you the chamber.. .M you stay un til morning," said imperious Miss BaVbara, with, a nod of her pretty head, "I will; marry you." ! "You vow it?" - Earnest turned straightway and followed the lad in waiting through dim rooms and passages, up cchoingstairs, along narrow, damp ways, whore rats scatter beforo thorn, to :i low. chamber. The boy looked pale and scared, add evidently wanted to hurry away ; but Earnest made him wait until he took a survey of the room by the aid of his lamp. It was very hirge and full of recesses, with high windows in them, which were barred across. Ho remembered that old Graudsire r'crros had boon insane* for several years before his death, so that this precaution had heed necessary for the safety of himself and others. In the cen tre bf the 'room stOdll a coffin; beside it was placed a chair. Tho room was otherwise per fectly empty. . Earnest strotched himself in tho coffin. "Be kind enough to tell Miss Barbara that it's a very good tit." bo said. , The boy went out and Bhut the door, leav ing tho young gunsmith alouo in thedurk. .Meanwhile, Barbara was talking with tho big blaokstuith iu tho keeping-room. "Barney," said sho, pulling hor hands away from his grasp when ho would have kissed her, "I've a test to put to you before I givo you any answer.
