THE PHANTOM OP DEADMOrit TdWl'.K.
CONCLUDED.
"The proprietor of this medieval placo
was a couple pf centuries or so in advauce
of it, certainly; but still he was very old
fashioned. He met me at the gate in the
most courtly manner; indeed, I took him at
first ipr a sort of heraldic butler, and very
nearly addressed .him with: 'What ho!
.seneschal. * But, fortunately, he iutroduoed
himself as Mr. Bantyen before I had time
to say it,
"He showed me up to my room himself,
was extremely anxious to make mo comfort?
able, and apologized for everything.
"He was a portly old gentleman, witb
gray hair, prominent eyes, and rather n
weak, undecided expression of countenance,
and he was dressed like ono of Soymour'f
caricatures, in a short-waisted coat-name
Jy, cut very Ligh in the collar-a table
cloth rolled round his neck for a tie, panta
loons and pumps.
. ?'When I was left alone, I inspected thc
room, thc furniture of which would hav<
set up a curiosity shop. It was panellec
with oak; and the heavy, high-backet
chairs, the table, the tall wardrobe, were al
of the same dark material. Thero was i
queer mirror, composed of three pieces, se
aslant at the further end of thc room, so a
to reflect everything in it in a distorter
fashion ; and a pair of dueling swords wer
crossed over the high, carved chimney
piece. But the bed, my dear fellow, th
bed! Why, it filled half tho room, am
must have been originally intended for ai
entire family; the hangings wero thick am
heavy, and the top like that of a bourse
Just the bed to lie m state in.
j "It was not altogether a cheerful aparl
ment, but I could hear the grouse crowiu
through the open window, and that sonn
was lively enough to subdue any amount o
upholstering gloom.
"I was sufficiently up in history to kuo'
that my host was dressed for dinner, so
put on evening things, sud went dow
stairs.
"The table was laid in tho hall, und as
had to pass through it to reach the drawinj
room, I saw that the party was to consist <
three. Mr. Bantyen? or a son? or auoth<
gun?
"Neither. On opening the drawing-roo:
door, I wa3 received by a charming girl i
twenty or thirty-I never oan guess at tl
beardless dears' ages while they have figur
and smooth eye corners-and Mr. Bantyc
intimated that he was a widower, and th
this young lady, his only child, kopt hon
for him.
"And very well she kept it, too. A ni?
little dinner sho gave us. A capit
manager she must have been, for every thu
had to bo fetched from a tremendous di
tance, and a trifling slip of memory mig!
have left the household without oil i
Worcester Bauoe for a week.
"She was a little bit shy at first, but qui
self-possessed, and evidently ruled tl
household, her father included. She w
'well educated, read the papers and mag
zincs, played the harp, sang, and was rath
glad, I think, to have a civilized being
talk to.
.*I have shot over moors in Scotland whe
the grouse was more plentiful, certain!
but still tho sport was very fair, quite goi
enough for my purpose. The old genti
man went out with me every day, and sh
very fairly, too, with an antique Manto
whioh had flint looks; he could do not li i
with a percussion gun. In the eveuing,
played at piquet with him, or at chess wi
his daughter; and after a pretty heavy si
feit of balls and dinners, that little bit
domestio quiet came in most acceptah
We soon got very friendly together, and
a fortnight I waa quite like one of the
mily, and Mr. Bantyen told me all his p
vate affairs.
"The family property had once been vt
good, but a succession of extravagant pi
sessors had mortgaged all that part up
which money could be raised, and the b
ren heath, with its old tower, was about
that was left. However, tho old gentlenc
had not always been quito so much straig

his dead wife's; who had got hi.; uncle
law to be security for him in some affair
another, and had then been guilty of a c
honest trick, which that unoffending r<
tive had to pay.
"You may well understand that I did
ask for any details upon so unpleasat
/subject; so, whether this black sheep I
done anything whioh waft absolutely fi
nions, I did not learn. At auy rate, it I
cost Mr. Bantyen so dearly to get him
of tho serape, and then start him ofl
America, where he was supposed to b
present, that he had determined to try

but I liked my quarters so weU that I
stopped on.
_ "Ono evening, as wo o tte towards the
'tower, alter a hard day's walking, we met
Mica Rantyari, xvho ww ina state of great
agitation. * '0, papa. Hay mond la boro !' she
cried. ' Raymond ' wna the troublesome
nephew who ought to. have been on the
other side of tho Atlantic.
"Poor Mr. Bantyen was very much per
turbed by the news, and began apologizing
to me; but I assured him, with perfect
truth, that I was fond of studying different
samples of my fellow-creatures, and counted
several scamps amongst my intimate ac?
quaintances. In truth, I have enjoyed tho
society of many a mnn who, from his youth
np, has been a source of nuxiety to his
friends, but I never mot a cooler card than
this Raymond Fletcher.
"I did not much like tho look of him; I
missed the rollicking, reckless look of the
genuino m?uvis sujet. His expression was
crafty, greedy and malicious, as well as im?
pudent, and he impressed one as being bad,
rather than mad.
"He spoke of his unexpected appearance
as a good joke, and compared himself to a
bad shilling. Ho did the honors of the
house, and attempted to patronize mc. Ho
triod, likewise, to impose upon mo in tho
matter of the society ho had mixed with,
asking if I kuew this man of the Blues,
that mau of tho Riflo Brigade. At last he
mentioned ono of my own regiment, and
then I had to shut him up.
"There must be some mistake," said I.
"I will not deny that you are the bosom
friend of every man iu position in every
other corps in tho Rervice, if you say so,
but none of the-th know you, I am cer?
tain."
That cooled him a bit, and a minuto o?
two afterwards, I intorcopted a look which
told me that ho honored me with his parti?
cular hatred. Nevertheless, he rathei
courted me, and tried his very best to mnkc
himself agreeable.
"Have you seen tho ghost?" he asked mt
in the course of the evening.
.'I bad thought something wanting ir
Deadniour Tower, and this question re
minded mo what it was. It ought to b<
haunted; it was absurd that it should no
be haunted; and I at onco demanded he:

that they had seen his spectre, envelopet

"I suggested that the witnesses had take
too much liquor when they saw tho ghost
and that after-illness might be deliriur.
tremens. Mr. Bantyen smiled politely, un
said it was possible; but though ho cons
doted that the Jesuit had been laid for sev<
ral years, probably by getting out of pm
gatory, ho evidently had a latent suspicio
that ho really had haunted the place.
"My host hud procured mo some par
ridge shooting at a few miles' distance, so
stopped on, though the tower was not a vet
agreeable residence now. Fletcher was a
odious snob, and Mr. Bantyen, instead <
kicking him out of the house, was so wea
as to let him bully him.
"I soon saw that tho fellow was smitte
with his pretty cousin, oud hated mo won
than ever for flirting with her, which, t
course, ono was bound to do a little; and t
6he evidently disliked and feared him, an
was glad to talk to me, in order to avoi

with his designs upon Mr. Bantyen 's purs
"My leave was drawing to a close, ho\
ever, ond as I intended to spend the lai
week of it in London, the time came for n
to quit Deadmour; und on the lost night, c
extraordinary thing happened-I saw tl
phantom.
"It was a wet and chilly night, aud wil

Tho first lire of the season is always pie

"I was Bitting with my back to that pa

poker, which had bern left between theb

the handle, and began stirring the fire,
tho same timo whistling, a tune. Thei
drew a common chair toward me with
left foot, as if meditating putting my 1
upon it, until I could get hold of the bi
with ny left hand.
I suddenly jumped ajx???d tamed jR?tmd
with th? chair held before zac as a shield,
and the ted-hot poker in my right hand.
"Now; my ghostly friend," said I, "just
drop that pistol."
"Instead of complying with this reasona?
ble request, he cooked and levelled it at my
head.
"I instinctively raised my chair, and
thrust the hot iron at him, touohing him
on the left cheek the moment tho pistol ex?
ploded.
"I suppose he escaped through a sliding
pauel or a trap-door; I kuow that I went
over backwards, chair and all. The bullet
bad gone through the seat, and then grazed
my temple, not doing any serious damage,
but stunning me for ti minute or so; so that
when the household, alarmed by thu report
of the pistol, arrived, they found me nud
tho chair, lying nil of n heap, nod thc poker
burning a quiet hole in the floor.
"Mr. Buntyen and his daughter were ex?
cessively distressed; aud tho house was
searched, and a deal of fuss made-tho most
euergetic member of the household being
Raymond Fletcher, who did not indeed put
iu nn appearance, but whose voice was
heard at the front door, intimating that ho
was going for thc police. As he would
have u good fifteen milo ride through the
rain and over a dark moor, before there was
a chance of his meeting with any member of
tho force, this readiness inspired me with a
suspicion which is now turned into a cer?
tainty. Raymond Fletcher lost his head
this morning, and I burned tho left cheek
of it that night with the poker."
"And did you leave Deadmour Tower on
tho following morning?"
"Yes, indeed, I was gfad enough to get
away, I hate a fuss."
"And what has become of the Bantyens?"
"I have not the remotest idea. Wo went
abroad that winter, and I forgot all abont
them till this morning."
"It was a queer adventure."
"Waa it not? Well, I suppose wo must

"There can bo no doubt of tho general adulte

fessor Mapee, of Now York, analyzed tho bee
from a dozen different breweries, and all wer
found adulterated with noxious substances. It i
said that the tale of drags to brewers, is a profit
able part of the trade. This is perfectly infamous

These are potent poisons, and tho brewer foum

law to prevent this nefarious business. Tho fol

"Under thia law, very many druggists and brev

to admit tho immaculate purity and innocence*
