I break all sUghter bonds, nor feol One shadow of regret; Is there one link within tho past That holds thy spirit yot? Or is thy faith as nlear and freo, As that which I can pledge to thee? Look deeper still, if thou canat feel, Within thy inmost soul, That thou hast kept a portion baek, While I bavo staked tho wholo Let no falso pity sparc tho blow, But in trne mercy tell mc so. IB thoro within thy hoart a need. That mine cannot fulfil? One chord that any other hand Could bettor wako or still? Speak now, lest at somo future day My wholo Ufo wither and deoay. GUILTY OK NOT GUILTY. CONCLUDED He found him Bitting with tho chair? man and tho vico of tho supper-party, in a perfect torrent of merriment, littlo appropriate either to the circumstances or tho place. Tho young man knew tho distinguished counsel, and roso and be? came silent when he entered. Power, however, although ho bowed courteous? ly, did not seem to recognize his visitor's name, oven when it was announced. '.I have come to pay an afternoon visit to my friend here," said the barrister. "I am glad to find him with two such supporters-salvage men. Bnt my friends the savages, you had better with? draw. I wish to have your prey all to myself." The two accordingly departed, and Mr. 0. was left alone with the prisoner. "I suppose I should make an apology for my intrusion," said the lawyer, "but all the strange nooks of this city are familiar to me; and, laddie, I thought a friend in need might not be unwelcome." Hin the homely kindness of his address, and the Dorio plainness of his Bpeech, there was a dignity and elegance about the demeanor of the visitor, that bespoke the well-bred gentleman. Power was at first startled, and then subdued by his manner. "I am sure I am much beholden," ho said. "Might I ask to what I am in? debted for this honor?" "To your going to be hanged," said the other, bluntly. "But there go two words to that," said Power. "They will not hang an inno? cent man in this blessed country of yours." "Won't they, though? They hanged Burke, after my friend tho Dean had proved him to be a saint." A pause ensued, for Power had littlo to reply to the flattering parallel. "In plain words, my lad, I am sorry for you. There is a secret whioh you do not wish to disclose. I do not know what you are, or where you como from, but I am Bure you aro a stranger, and I believe you aro innocent. Friends are not so easily found by tho stranger and the wrongfully accused, that you should rejoot an honest oiler. Coniido in mo I shall be as secret as the grave." Power looked at him for a minute, aud then, a sudden revulsion seizing him, burst into a flood of tears. "lum ashamed," ho said, at last, "to give way thus, but I nm quite alone how much you do not know-the most unfortunate of men, and, in this, wholly innocent." "Tell me tho tale plainly, my boy, and maybe I moy find a remedy." The prisoner told his tale. What it was, the sequel must disclose. The day of trial had come. Tho pri? soner was placed at the bar, the judges, in scarlet and white, defiled into court, and the clerk called, in a loud voice: "Charles Power, stand up, and listen to the indictment against you." The appearance of tho prisoner excited great interest in court, which was crowd? ed with students and tho public. Tho Lord Advocate, as public prosecutor, sat on ono side of tho table within the bar, assisted by other counsel. On tho other side, sat Mr. C. and a junior counsel. A strange smile came over the fuco of tho prisoner when his name was called. He rose, however, with a glance at his counsel, anti pleaded "Not guilty," with a firm voice. Tho case mado by tho Crown authori? ties was ono which startled tho students by its strength and compactness, They called tho students who were at the "lininbow," to provo the quarrel. They proved that Power did not go to col lego on Monday, tho 25th of January; that Johnstone WUB seen to go up tho com mon stair on the afternoon of that day; that persons who lived next door heard a violent altercation in Power's room about 4 o'clock^ that tho person who passed the policeman and gave tho alarm was Power; and that Power left by the Glas? gow coach at 6 o'clock, and returned lo Edinburgh that night, remaining until Wetlnestlay at a hotel. Tho medical mon proved that tho cause of death was concussion of tho brain, accompanied by strangulation. In all instances, tho pri? soner was distinctly identified. Tho no? tion of an alibi was apparently hopeless. Mr. C. mado but littlo attempt at cross-examination. Ho cxtrnctod somo merriment ont of an irasciblo stage i.. ? a. / j ii i i. i coachman, and succeeded in creating some confusion as to where and when Power left the Glasgow coach. But the proof of his return was quito olear. Of tho doctors the council only asked a few questions. "You spoke about strangulation. How was it prodaoed?" "I cannot tell." "Pressure on tho throat produces strangulation?" "It does." "Any sort of pressure?" "Any which is sufficiently close and tight." "Hangingproduces strangulation?" "Yes." "Was the man hanged, dootor?" "No, of course not." "Why, ?of course not?'" "Because there is no reason to think he was." "Any other reason for 'of course not?' " "No." "You may go," and go he did, nftor saying more, aud implying much moro thnu ho mount. The case looked very black, and was closed by tho Crown reading the notan dum made wheu Power ref UBed to answer the sheriff's questions. Tho audieuco wore greatly excited, but the prisoner himself maintained a de? meanor perfectly tranquil. Ho wns rather moved when the witnesses de? scribed the grief of Johnstone's family, but except nt this stage of the trial, ho evinced no emotion whatever. "Call Admiral Soymour," said Mr. C. A tall, weather-beaten man, somewhat stately, Btepped into tho witness-box, and was sworn. "Admiral, do you know why you liavo been asked to como here?" "No, sir, I do not; and I think it would have been moro civil to have told me. I kuow nothing about Mr. Power, or any of that name." 1 'No one has had the civility to ask you what you wero goiug to say?" "Yes; a gcntlcmuu came from the Crown office; I told him he knew as much as I did." "I believe you left Belfast by tho steamer which sailed on the night of Sunday, the 24th of January?" "I did." "Do you recollect a conversation you had with n youug gentleman about volca? noes?" "I remember it and him very well. He was a very intelligent fellow, and wo talked together most of tho night." "Were you foliow-travelers up thc Clyde to Glasgow?" "Wo were." "When did you arrive in Glasgow?" "About 1 o'clock in tho afternoon." ' 'Where did you part from him ?" "I took him to the Western Club, of which I am a member, and gave him lunch, and wo parted there." (To tho prisoner:) "Stand up, if you please. Is that the man?" "It is." "Have you any doubt of that?" "Nono, -whatever." The Crowu roso to cross-examine. "There must be some mistake, admi? ral. Look at him again." "There ?B no mistake. That is tho man. I should kuow him anywhere." "Did you soe any one like him?" "Not that I remember. Butsinceyou aro so pressing, I should like to hear him Bpeak." The judge said there oould bo no ob? jection to that, and told the prisoner to uddress a remark to the witness. "Ah, admiral, do you recollect what happened to Dermot Rooney's cow on her birth-day?" said tho prisoner. Tho reminiscence was plainly a divert? ing one, for tho admiral laughed out? right, and said it was the same funny fellow, beyond all doubt. And, strange as it was, tho jury seemed to think so too. And tho admiral was allowed to re? tire without further question. "Call Miss Budget Malone,"said Mr. C. And a very pretty, lady-like young wo? man stepped into court, accompauied by her mother. "You are tho daughter or Mr. Malone, the banker of Belfast?" said Mr. C. "Yes, I am." "Do you romomber traveling to Bel? fast by the coach from Waterford, on tho 23d of January?" "Yes, sir." "You traveled inside?" "Yes, sir." "Had you any fellow-travelers?" "Yes," said Miss Bridget, with a smile, "that gentleman," poiuting to Power, "was with me." "All tho way?" "Yes." "Was he agreeable?" "Very pleasant, sir." "Have you over seen or heard of him siuce?" ' No, sir. I saw an advertisement in tho Belfast newspaper, which I knew must be from him, and so 1 am hero to? day." "When did yon arrive?" "Only a few hours ago." "Did yon know why you were wanted?" "Not iu tho least." "Yon have no doubt it ?H he?" "lie is not easily forgotten, 6ir," said Hie girl, innocently, but with a blush. "Did ho make love to you, then?" in? terposed tho opposite counsel. "No, sir, unies.1! with his eyes. You know how, sir." "I wish I did,".said that functionary. "There was nothing more teuder between yon?" "Oh-you mistake, altogether-we were very happy. That was all, and I was sorry when tho journey was over." "And so was I," interposed the pri? soner. "Yes, that is his voico. If you make him say, 'Oft iu tho stilly night,' my | lord," said tho girl, turning to the beuch, I "you would understand." "Shall I ask him to sing it?" said Mr. C. "Really," said tho Lord Advocate, "this is quito unusual and irregular." Ho waa rather nottlod with tho evidence. "No," said Mr. C.; "it is a case of '. ; - ' '. i' .y-t. .: identity. Identity-of voico may bo an important na that of feature. Do yon wish" (turning to the witness) ''to, be confirmed in your opinion by bearing his voice?" "I have no doubt about him; but he says it very sweetly." ' "Prisoner," said the Judge, "you have heard what has passed. Can you say auy of the verses?" Thus adjured, Powor recited the second verse of that sweetest of all Moore's melodies, with great taste and expres? sion. The witness listened with delight, and nt tho end exclaimed-"I was Bure of it. Nobody ever said all 'but me de? parted* but himself." Ho had said so, and tho evidence was irresistible. Tho waiter at tho Western Club, tho clerk ot tho coach office, and tho guard of tho mail, nil spoke to his having been in Glasgow on Monday until 4 o'clock, and having left it by tho coach that evening. He arrived iu Edinburgh, as tho Crown witnesses had said, at 9 o'clock at night. Tho chain was complete, and all idea of conoert was excluded by the fact that nono of the witnosses know when they came into court, tho reason of their boing summoned. Tho case looked likooneof mistaken identity ; but tho strange thing was that tho accused had never denied that ho was the student iu question, and seemed from tho first to be familiar with all ?round him. Tho Crown had no choice but to aban? don tho prosecution, and tho prisoner was acquitted; but tho mystery which tho trial had thrown ovor tho whole affair, created an unpleasant impression, and hr left Edinburgh next day. Very shortly afterwards, a fact trans? pired which rendered it at least doubtful whether the crime had been committed at nil. Two medical studonts, who were friends of Johnstone, resided at the top of the snmo stair-enso. Both of theso students had left Edinburgh rather .sud? denly, immediately after this event, and it was not known where they had gone. But it trnuspired that they had been iu tho habit of making experiments in Strangulation on themselves-not an un? usual thing nt that time; and it carno to bo believed that Power's counsel, at tho timo of the trial, had information that Johnstone came by his death in that way, and that tho others, in their terror, had laid down his body at Power's door. The niue clays' wonder Hoon subsided, and gave place to new topics; and it was many years afterwards that I hoard the true vorsion of this singular talc. It seems there wero two brothers, twins, of the nnmo of Power, who wero left or? phans, and almost without relatives or connections, when they wero mero chil? dren. They were so wonderfully alike, that those who knew them best could rarely distinguish them, mid tho old ma? ternal grand-father, who brought thom up, took care that they should bo edu? cated separately. Reginald, tho eldest, assumed tho name of Reynolds, as ho succeeded to a small property through his mother. Tho brothers, after the death of their grand-father, being alone in tho world, had tho most devoted, even 1 until nt ie, affection for each other, al? though, at tho time of this story, they i had not met for several years. Reginald had received a writership to ludia, and when the evonts I have spoken of occurred, was on his way to pay his brother a farewell visit. Johnstone and Power had met that afternoon, and Power had knocked him down, and was horrified an hour or two afterwards to find Johnstone lying dead nt his door. In his alarm, ho immediately started oil by tho coach which loft for Glasgow at G o'clock, to meot his brother, and consult what was to be done. Thc coach stop? ped at a stage where it mot tho other, and there the brothers resolved on the romantic course of changing their iden? tity-Power going to London ns Rey? nolds, and Reynolds going to Edinburgh as Power. The rest is easily conceived; but Roynolds remained Power to tho end of his life, uud never would hear of re? suming either his nanto or his estate. He went out as a medical mau to Australia, roso to great eminence, and only died a year or two ago, leaving nu enormous fortuue. Ho left a widow, whoso maiden name was Bridget Malone. Patent Office.
