Tie Tujoorphans. By DMCnnorv. CHAPTER VI1. GAltDKN OF HEI.-Alll. The Marquis dc Presles had told Labour to carry Henriette to Bel-Air, and we will visit those gardens on the same evening that the beautiful orphan was abducted. The scene there was a brilliant one, well illustrating the pleasures of t Ire nobles of France about the beginning | m uic present century. A small garden had been made in the midst ot a natural grove, which was shut out from the curious ga/.e of the world by several small eottagesor chalets, decorated In the highest style of art: and which served the Maruuis de I'rosles as a retreat, where, free from intrusion, that'profligate nobleman could enjoy, t he society of boon companions, who, like himself, lived only for the present and its pleasures. On this particular evening the gardens were illuminated, and a large party of so-called ladies and gentlemen were assembled to do full honor to the entertainments for which the marquis was celebrated. As we attempt to pass within the enclosure, we are stopped by a numerous crowd of lackeys, who demand to see our card of admission, and failing to produce such a passport, we are tolil we are not allowed even near the gardens; while all efforts to induce any of them to present our cards to the master of this retreat arc equally unavailing, as they declare that their orders are most positive, and we must go quietly awav or be forced to go. Thus jealously does the marquis guard his retreat from importunate creditor or unwelcome friend. Inasmuch as we only visit Bel-Air in fancy, we can bid defiance to the marquis s orders, and enter without his permission. Around the tables which are placed in the garden, a number of ladies and gentlemen are seated, drinking wine while they discuss the latest court news, or the most Interest inir "Well, what do you think of my retreat from t lie whirl and bustle of Paris?" asked the marquis of his vis-avis, who was a dashing sort of beauty. "My dears Marquis," replied that lady, "I am delighted. It is a satisfaction to tind a gentleman who maintains the customs of his rank." "And yet there are fools who want to change them!" exclaimed a young nobleman from the opposite table. "You are right?fools?fools," answered De Presles, as lie motioned to the servants for more wine. "By the way," asked the lady who had first spoken, "you have heard the news?" As no one had heard anything particularly ngw for the past two hours, she continued by saying: "They say that the new minister of police is as hard as a stone, and cold as a tish. He is going to put a stop to all our amusements, and, marquis, this may be the last entertainment you give at Bel-Air." "Nonsense!" exclaimed the host. "I'd like to see the minister of police who would dare to interfere with the pleasures of a ! rench nobleman. Who and what is he?" "He is from Tourains: is called the Count de Linieres, and is the uncle of the Chevalier Maurice de Vaudrev." "Where is the chevalier?" suddenly asked one of t he ladies, as she was thus reminded of one whom report had described as rather eccentric, and on whom she wished to exercise her charms. "You promised me 1 should see him, Marquis." "So 1 did, and 1 expect him as well as another guest. I warn you, ladies, that she will be a rival to you all." "Who is the other guest?" was the question which assailed him from all quarters! "A young lady," answered the marquis, as if enraptured at the thought. "Sweet sixteen, beautiful as a rose, and Innocent as an angel." "Where did you tincl such a pearl?" asked one of the ladies, banteringly* "In Normandy." This announcement was followed by a general laugh "Yes, 1 know these Normandy beauties witn caps six feet high," laughed one of the ladies l>etraying in spite of herself, a t Inge of jealousy in her voice. "In wooden shoe's," added another of the fair ones, "and hair plaited down her back." "Laugh away, ladies," said Do 1'resles, gayly. "You shall see a Norman beautv in a high cap, wooden shoes and all, and then see how jealous you will all become at sight of her." At this moment a voice was heard from the outside, and in the midst of some confusion, a rather singular voice was heard saying: "I tell you I must go in, and 1 will. J must speak to your master." On hearing this the marquis went toward the entrance, and demanded of the servants who this was, who was so importunate. "I'icard," answered the owner of the singular voice "i'icard, valet to the Chevalier da Vaudrey." The marquis immediately gave orders that he be admitted, and a sharp, wiry-looking fellow, wearing the Do Vaudry livery, stood lie fore the gay party. "Most excellent Marquis, and most beautiful ladies," said he, in an affectionate tone, and with a low !>ow, which was received with laughter, "I am very sorry, but my master asks you to excuse him." "Excuse him?" echoed one of the ladies, "why he promised " "I did the promising," answered Picard, with another of his sweeping Ik>ws. "lie said lie did not know whether he could come or not, but thinking 1 could persuade him, I promised for him." - - m ii^ii jkjii liajk ii great iiocrly," said I>c Prcsles, "and he ought to punIsh you for It." "Certainly he ought," answered IMcard, blandly; "1 wish he would; but alas! iny master is not like other master at all." Seeing looks of Incredulity at this statement, Heard continued, in a most solemn manner. "It is so, gentlemen. He spends his nights in pleasure, as a young nobleman should; but his days how do you < ?n*i suppose he spends his days?" j si "Sleeps, of course," said the ivmrjuls. In a positive tone. tl "Gentlemen, allow me to tell you h xmfldentially," said the valet, mys- It Lerlotisly, as the gentlemen withered t Around lilm, fully expecting to hear of ci lome treason, "lie works! actually works! lie sits down and roads and t< writes as though he were a lawyer's t clerk." 1> " Hah!" exclaimed one. "You don't n expect us toUdievc that?" : g "Yes. and more too," answered I heard, who enjoyed immensely being e able to impart some information to his 1 superiors. " Why, how do you suppose v he acts to the common people who j want to see him? His creditors, for in- J stance?" i{1 "Why, If they are importunate, he ;} boats them, 1 suppose." answered I)c Hresles, with whom this method of ' settling his hills was a common occur- ' rence. " Yes, he beats them." sneered I'ic- 1 ard; "lie pays them! Yes. gentlemen, itc pays his tradespeople.' And the ' valet surveyed the group, enjoying lite ' surprise he had given them. 1 "Oh, the poor fellow is lost!" ex-1 1 claimed one of the party, who at the i N age of twenty had spent a large fortune I and was now living on his wits. "Completely." altlnned 1'icard, "and i 1 allowing to the company keeps, lie ' won't be guided by me." "lYrhans lie is right in that " an. 1' swcred l>e Presles "lint where 1st lie . attraction elsewhere to-night?" "1 will tell you. gentlemen," said a ( deep voice near the entrance to the gardens, and looking up, all saw the . Chevalier do Yaudrey himself. \ lie was a noble-looking man with none of the fopperies and evident at- j tempt at display which characterized . some of ids companions, and a careful * observer would instantly have said ( that lie was. in mental endowments, ( far above t he average. "What is all this that I Meant lias ( been telling us, that you were not coin tngV" asked Presles, lb surprise. ( "1 did not expect to come, so sent him with my regrets," answered the chevalier, as he accepted a glass of , wine which was handed to him. j "And now he brings them himself," , said lMcard, in a low voice, as ho left tllO garden hastily, lest his master should hear of the disclosures lie had , been making The conversation became general, and before long the orgy was at its ( height, when a noise was heard at the , cut ranee, and Lalleur appeared. After whispering a few words to the marquis, he received the order: "Let her he brought in here." Lalleur immediately retired, and re- , turned in a few minutes, followed by j four men who bore a sort of litter, oil ( which was the inanimate form of Jlcnrlettc. , She lay like one dead; without motion or color, and save for the sound of , stertocous breat hing, she was to all | appearances dead. Into the midst of some of the most ^ dissolute Parisian society, had the . poor, innocent, unprotected girl been ( brought: with no one to aid her, and , j even those of her own sex who were by would enjoy her suffering rather than ( do anything to save her from the fear- . ful doom that was so near. What a terrible change for the two i orphans, who. scarcelv t went v-fnnr - ? ? J J hours previous, wore light-hearted maidens, sett ing out from their child- | hood's homo to visit the beautiful city j alK)ut which tlioy liad heard so much. , Now, one was in the power of low, vile, wretches: and the other in the . hands of those who called themselves gentle people, but who had no more , mercy, in fact, not as much as the | I'roe hards. i ClIAPTKU VIII. SAVED FHOM OIS1IONOII. Like a lily half broken from its stem t lay Ilenriette upon the litter, sur- t rounded by the revelers who had gathered to see the Norman beauty. Under the inlluence of the drug which had been administered, she re- , mained unconscious of the rude jests , which were uttered, and the coarse | laugh of triumph which greeted her N arrival. s Only one of the gay party was with-* j, out curiosity respecting her appear- j ance. That one was the Chevalier Maurice v do Vaudrey. I lie passed by her as she was brought ,, in, and seeing what it was that lay upon the litter, contented himself by .. remarking: I, "A young girl! The sport has been ,, good. ; Then resuming his seat he waited listlessly until some disposition should ( l>e made of the game which had been j, so bravely captured. "All, is this our threatened rival?" asked one of the females,after looking, ,, not without a fee1.ing of envy, at the pale features of the abducted girl. ., " Why, she has fainted," remarked S) another, in a sarcastic voice. ' "Sleeping, my dear," said the lirst. "it's much more becoming." i, it ? LL. II 1 ?? ' u\l tins 11 veiy suny oi \vn, a general (| laugh went around the company. 4,11 '11 wager that her eyes are but j. half closed, and that she Is laughing c' to herself at all the trouble you are v taking," said the cynical I >e Vaudrey, ^ who had, years before, lost faith in .. woman-kind. .. And it is little wonder that in that dissolute age an honest, noble-minded s man should have believed womanly purity to he a fable of the past. "What do you think of my trcas- 's lire?" asked l>e Preslcs, who had been N> gloating 1)is sensual eyes upon the .( form of the fair girl who was thus in [ his power. "She has a very ordinary face," said one of t he ladies (?), who prided herself upon her beauty. " "An exceedingly common person, as ei you can tell by her feet,"said another, n as she tried to display Iter own dainty foot, which she took the greatest de- j light in showing. j( "Her arms and hands tire like a washerwoman's," was the kindly re- . mark of a bold-looking blonde, who had exposed as much of her own arms as possible. ^ "Chevalier, your opinion?" asked si the bankrupt nobleman, who liked a d bit of sarcasm, and not being able to say it himscll, knew that it would he 0 sure to come from the eccentric Do , Vatid rev. " It's a lovely face; distinguished air: with the hands and feet of a duchess, " replied the chevalier, without taking the trouble to look at the object of his si criticism. tl "Hut you have not seen ?" De I'rcs- tl les eagerly began to say. 81 "No," answered l>e Vaudrcy, cool* \ 1V. "Hut 1 have heard those young ladies." The young nobleman who had pro- w voked t ills remark was delighted; but >' the ladies who had thus freely given their opinions, favored him with a ei glance which lacked not the will to si wit her and blast the yistigator Of t his n reflection upon their remarks. S1 "Isn't she going to wake up?" asked one, in order to cover her confusion "Oil, yes," said the marquis, as he 11 took a small, delicately chased silver K flask from his pocket. "A few drops ft of this on the handkerchief will lie b nil iiMr^pnnrniinTr^^^F*'" ? ufflcient to revive her." The marquis poured a few drops of t tie 1 iiiiiill upon the priceless laco ? andkerehlcf which he held in his and. and was nUiiit to apply It, when > he desire to heighten the effect iusod hhn to stop. "NVhat will she say when she comes t i> her senses?" he asked, much as t hough he were speculating upon the | rotable act ions of some strange anl- i nil. rather than a weak, defenseless . irl. The young bankrupt nobleman lookd at t lie chevalier, as if hoping thai e would answer that question,and lie ' ias not disappointed. 1 "What will she say when she comes : o her senses?" repeated be Yaudrcy, \ s though it was a useless question, i he answer of which every one knew. As though we did not know by heart lie everlasl ing plirases of t hese wl 11ngly abducted maidens. When the iroper moment arrives she will wake ip and go t hrough It all." i Ihirsting Into a llood of imaginary ears, i he chevalier proceeded to give in iinitsit ion of the kind of cries inlulgcd in hy maidens who, as he said, lad been abducted by their own vislies. " Where am 1?" lie continued, In a lying voice. "Why have you brought lie here? What is it you wish? Great leavens ah! my mother!" Then resinning his natural tone, lie iddcd: "Then by slow degrees tiiis profound ?. .,1 -i mi , ii i nuns uespair, wnicli commenced in a torrent of tears, will be irowned in a Hood of champagne." All present joined in a heartv laugh it l>e Vaudrey's imitation of what :hev themselves hud soon many times. "Let us see whether t lie chevalier lias remembered the exact words," taid the young lady who had expressed such an ardent wish to 800 the chevalier. "Let me wake her, Marliiis." I >e Presles gave her the handkerchief which lie had saturated with the liquid* and she proceeded to try its ptrccts upon the unconscious Honriot t o. All present, except Do Vaudrcy, cat hered around to enjoy the confusion of the Norman heauly, when she should awake to find herself in the midst of the gay party, and the young lady who had received the handkerchief from the marquis applied the rest oral ive. Ilenrictte had inhaled the pungent odor but a moment , when she showed signs of ret u ruing consciousness. "Look! her eyes open," exclaimed the one who was thus bringing her to i sense of misery. I lenriette opened her cys in a dazed sort of way, like one who. accustomed to the darkness, is suddenly exposed to I lie blinding gaslight. She rose to sit ting posture mechanically, and surveyed those around her. Lor sonic moments she did not seem to I , w I . . ? -- - * 1 iiuueiMl Ullll IVIIUIT SIR' WHS, ()!' What had happened. "Am I mild?" she asked in amazement. at the view which met tier gaze, 'ho I dream?" and clasping her hands 1<> her head, she endeavored to recall the events which had passed. "Chevalier, that is not exactly the )ld way," said t he young lady who had iwakeiied Ilenriette, to I)e Vaudrey. "No. that is singular," said the hevalier with his habitual sneer. "It is rather an improvement." By degrees t he abducted girl remcm>ercd what had happened, and almost n a Hash she understood where she was. Springing suddenly to her feet, she onfronted t he marquis. " Monsieur," she said, "has t his out age been committed by your orders? s t his your house?" With a thin smile ii|>on his simperng lips, the marquis approached the low thoroughly enraged girl. "Ah, mademoiselle, I see you do me 1 he honor to recognize me," lie said, > lowing low, and as it seemed to the ioor girl, in mockery; "it was I vho ' , "Not another word, sir, said llcniette, (irmly, and at the same time as hough she believed her wishes would 1 >o obeyed.

It would require something more han the tone of the voice, touching as t was, to move the marquis from his urpose; and with his courtly grace, rhicli seemed in the present case a lockery, he said to Hcnriettc: " Mademoiselle, after all the trouble /e have taken to bring you here, you L-aieely suppose we will let you goso 0011!" For ;i moment I lenriet te regarded iin earnestly, while the tears, unhiden, came into her eyes. "1 see t lie horrible trap you have lid for me; but vile as you arc, you an scarcely understand tlx* extent of our own villainy," said site, in a voice rliicli she vainly tried to render lirm. You have separated me from my poor liild, whose only help in life \ am, rliose misfortune commands the repect of criminals, even worse than ourself. She is dependent on me lone; wit bout me she can not, take a ingle step, for she is blind!" and the rail of ut ter desolation which accotnanied 1 hose words would have touched he heart of a savage. "Mind!" they exclaimed, as the rords arrested the merry laugh and road jest, while the females expressrl in their faces the compassion they ow began to feel for the poor girl. "Yes, blind and alone!" continued lenriette. miw nn narriwtnwau Su ?n? , VI?V J lLensity of her feelings that her oicc resembled more t he wail of a j >st soul than anything human.

The picture wliielt her mind had [injured up was too much for IlenIctte; she could control herself no ingcr, and she hurst into a flood of sars. "What will become of her?" she ibbed, to herself, and with the (plosion came again the maddening bought that she was powerless to asIst to her, and she turned again to he almost stupefied revelers. "She is blind!" repeated llcnrlctte, ith vehemence. "Gentlemen, do on hear me? She is blind!" "Oh, this is too horrible!" exclaimrl the Chevalier do Vaudrey, who, till seated by the table, was greatly loved by Henrietta's words of de[>alr and entreaty. The marquis read from the faces of is guests that their sympathies were olng out toward his victim, and as ir as Ills small soul would permit he ccame generous. "Oh, well, compose yourself, madenoisclle," he said, in a studied voice. 'I will give orders to have search nade for her. My people will tlnd ler and bring her here." "liring her here!" exclaimed Hen iettc, while all the anger of her gendc nature was aroused by tiie insulting proposal. "She in this house? never!" Then clasping he hands, she isked, piteously: "Is this the only inswer you have to my prayer?" The poor girl saw no signs of relenting on the cold, hard face before lier, and with all the dignity and pasdon of a pure woman who is insulted, die turned for a last appeal to those around her. "Is there no one here," she asked, "who dares to raise a voice against this man?" "You are mistaken, mademoiselle," said l)c l'resles. iti a voice which he vainly endeavored to make dignified. "We are all noblemen and gentlemen." The utter hollowness of these terms, as used by the marquis, in comparison with his present mode of action, aroused all of the chevalier's scorn and contempt. Ill, rlnul,n#1 J i\/ iKiou^u 11 ir> ^ wmuil I1U Wclfi Just raising to his lips, to the ground, and arose to his feet. "Then among all these noblemen and gentlemen," once more appealed llcnriette, "Is there not one man of honor?" "There Is, mademoiselle," exclaim cd De Vaudrcy, going toward her with an angry Hush upon his face, caused by Do I'rosles' brutal conduct. "Take my hand: wo will leave this place." "Oh, thank you? thank you, monsieur, a thousand thanks!" exclaimed llcnriette, as she took the prolTered hand and grasped It fervently, as a drowning man would the friendly rope thrown to save him. The marquis was so astonished by De Yaudrey's Interference, that for a moment lie was unable to oiler any objection to this answer to his victim's prayer, and the chevalier had conducted llcnriette nearly to tin*, garden entrance before De I'rcsles recovered from ids stupor. lie rushed in front of the two, and barred their exit. "Excuse me, Chevalier, tills is my house," lie said.in a voice hoarse with rage, "1 do not permit "(live me room, sir," said De Vaudrcy, in a haughty voice. "I will not allow this Insult. Do you hear?" he exclaimed, as the loud chimes of a clock proclaimed the hour of midnight. "After twelve o'clock no one ever leaves this house." % "Then we shall he the first to do so," answered DcVaudrcy, In a cool tone. "Stand aside, sir." "Do you know, Chevalier," said the marquis, white and trembling with rage,"thatyou speak to me as though 1 were your lackey." "I would not speak to a lackey who acted as you do," replied the chevalier, in a contemptuous tone, "1 would cane him." "Enough, monsieur; you are more than Insolent!" exclaimed 1 >e l'resles drawing his sword and standing on the defensive. "Attempt to pass inc " "I certainly shall," interrupted Do Vaudrcy. "and this young lady with me." llenriettc clung to the arm of her protector In affright, while the other occupants of the garden gathered around the two men, and vainly attempted to quell the Impending duel. "Stand back, gentlemen," commanded the martinis, in a rough voice. "After such an insult, there Is but me course!" and stepping into a clearid space at the back of the garden, he awaited t he chevalier. Pale with terror, llenriettc saw these preparations; but she could only ilasp her hands, and with a whispered prayer to Iiim who said, "Thou shalt tot kill," breathlessly awaited the remit of the duel.

The marquis reeled for a moment is the sword was withdrawn, and then vith a low groan sunk into the arms .hat were outstretched to receive dm. Without deigning to cast a look up)n his fallen foe, l>e Vaudrey raised lis hat with courtly grace, and oll'erid his hand to llenriette, who was alnost bewildered hy the rapidity with vldch the combat had been llnlshed.
