CHAPTER III. Thc Countess Melusine became tho j rage at Stoneleigh. Letters of most flattering introduction from tho Ba? ron Guldenstern, :t Hanoverian no? bleman of unquestionable standing, to tho Hopgoods, who were the lend? ing people of tho place, gave the pass? key iuto every house beside. Forthe Huron was a great friend of the Hop goods, and ono whose notice some? what honored them; so that tiny re- : commendation of his was sure ol" i cager acknowledgment. But; among all her adherents, norn! worshipped her with so mitch singleness of heurt (he infatuation of nono struck so deep, or soared so high-us tho young teacher's. To him, she wa:; a revelation, a being from another world; it "was adoration, rather than love, that he felt for lier; and he could ! have died for her simple wilful plea? sure with as much rapture as other men would have lived for their own. And she-perhaps she pitied him;' perhaps his innocence ami ingenu? ousness touched lier; perhaps even another feeling came in; bo that as it may, she spared him. Thc great events of tho present year, at ?Stoneleigh, were the balls and parties given by the Countess at OakfellHali. The wealthy Joneses and tue superior Hopgoods both as? serted they had never seen anything | equal to them in their way; and if aught had been wanting to confirm ? their admiration of their new neigh? bor, it would have been the faultless? ness of her entertainments. They were subjects of conversation ami '> imitation, years after, when tho whole thing had exploded ami gone to the i winds. To be sure, the play was very deep, and the fair Countess was nu coward in her laughing bets; ti? be suns too, no one ever seemed to win, and the beautiful hostess herself al ways protested, most strenuously of all, how she had been victimized, complaining, in her fascinating ac? cent, of the cruelty ?d' her guests, and their inhospitality t<> a stranger and a foreigner. "It was very odd." Mr. Jones used to say, when counting up the stakes, j "very odd, indeed, who had got them all!" And Mr. .loues, as a retired! merchant, was pretty well up to gum- ; bliugiu all its aspects. Very odd, too, was it, how often tho best cards turned up, at "tho right moment, in thc hands of the Count? ess; and how that pretty, graceful way of sliulliing of hers seemed to bring her good luck. "As, indeed, it should, as a reward ol' its graceful? ness," said Mr. Briggs, gallantly, though somewhat ruefully us well, as he disbursed his golden losses. Thc only person who at ali held off from joining in this universal choir of homage, was Captain MacArthur. Between him and the lady existed a something-no one exactly knew what-but a certain mute distrust on bis par?, timi a scarcely veiled defiance on hers, ile went less ti? Oakfell Hall than any one in the neighborhood, and often lie used to say, "I cannot think where I have seen the Countess before, but her face seems so very familiar to me." Once lio made the same remark to her; but ' slit! answered him so haughtily, so much as if the assertion were an offence, that Captain Mac? Arthur thought it ucedful to apolo? gize, aud assure her ho was mis? taken. Still, thoro was nothing like open hostility between them; and the frequenter of thc Baden tables simply foreboro to adulate lier like the rest; ho never spoke with positive disfavor. The most curious thing in her social tactics, however, was how she contrived to be secretly on better terms with half lier society than came out in public bearing. Almost all tiie gentlemen in turn were admitted io private consultations in that de licious little boudoir Lung with blue and silver. Unit "gave ?>iV" from, the drawing-room, ?is she phrased it; but especially and most frequently might I young-Mr. Briggs and old Mr. Smith have have been seen there hy those i *d" tin; curious who hu.l cared lu penc ! trate the secrets of the 11:11 i. L?ut no j omi knew of their long, earnest, gracious colloquies in the little bou , doir of him' and .'diver: no ono know that oven Mr. Hopgood spent many :i half morning closeted there, with tim Countess in tho freshest and most becoming of morning toilettes, and I with the daintiest and most delicate of "slight refreshments" on tho table beside them; no ono knew that Mr. .huies, inore limn once, told tho partner of his bosom a whole chapter of fibs to concen? the fact that ho had passed hours at the Hall under a spell of bine and silver, and old Rhenish wino in eut crystal goblets, and floating muslin, and chestnut colored curls, which forever culmi? nated in a tangible result it was I better not to detail afc length-no one knew all this, or what, thoso tete-a tetes meant, or whether it was ambition or intrigue, love, money, or politics that animated thc Countess Melusine, and made her lifo the busy web of secrets it was. Tho most carefully guarded secret of all was the ultimate purpose of this blue-and-silver bou? doir off tho drawing' room. More noticeable than her secret, in? timacies with the moneyed men of the district-because more open-was her daring' patronage of young An? thony Carthew, ?she invited him to hov revels, where the Hopgoods, in their silks and flounces and severe local aristocracy, and the Joneses, in their flighty haughtiness, were assem? bled as hy right; and she boro down the opposition which would have swamped a less popular innovator. And her protege did not disgrace her. With the tact of an inborn gentle? man, he carried himself with quiet? ness and diguity, not making himself conspicuous in any way, and even seizing something of the tone about him. And though it was all now to him. no ono who saw him in those brilliant, rooms, modest, frank and beautiful aa became his youth, would have supposed that he was making Iiis novitiate, and that -.ill, even to the proper mode of address, was new lo him. In one thing he was mark? edly distinct from the rest -he never played. The Countess forbade him the card-room, and ho was too happy to obey any of her desires to infringe, ile was tlie only one in the place who knew of these secret colloquies in the boudoir, and he used at times to be vaguely fearful, mutely uneasy, as a faithful hound might have been; jeal? ous of his mistress, but jealous for hive not self-seeking. lint the Conntness never neglected him. On the contrary, she petted him openly in her re-unions, as she called them, made much of him, and kept him always about her. praisiug his man? ners, his face, his talents, to every one around, and raising him, by the might of her popularity, to such an unheard-of equality as to win recog? nition even from the Hopgoods themselves. Six months before, he would as so.m have expected a bow or a "hand-shako" from tho head of the empire himself. ]>nt the day time gave Anthony his dearest plea? sures, more so than even those bril? liant vivid evenings. Ile was rarely twenty-four hours away from the Hall, excepting when tho boudoir was tenanted by a rival. Whole days would pass like minutes, while, he wandered in the garden by the side of the Countess, whose varied know? ledge an.l sparkling AV it enthralled him quite as much as her beauty or her gracious Jil nd ness. In tho meantime, what did Nelly J Hair, anti what tho austere Rachel? Choy beheld themselves aloof from tho popular current, and predicted all sorts of shameful couching.*? to the popular blindness. Nelly at last be? gan to see that Anthony's life was centered in the Hall, and thal he had become indifferent to her, even to neglect. Rachel bad long seen as much; and she fumed and raged, and even wept for spite, as unheeded as if she hail been but tho boisterous wind or the angry rain lashing the distant fells. Melly took ii. much more quietly. Slie would listen placidly to Rachel's fierce wrath, and. when she had end? ed, would give ?i light sigh, and say: "Oh, he'll come round, Rachel; he is very young, you know; and J al? ways thought him rather foolish; but he'll come round in time, j jet's wait and see. and not tri...ble ourselves too much about, him, Rachel."
