C11A1TKK IX. TI1K II LIN I) OIHL'S Sl'KFKKINOS. The garret into which La Frochard's cruelty and love for gain had consigned Louise, was a place to make even the stoutest heart quail. Imagine a low. narrow room, reeking with ordors from decaying wood and rags, and damp from the mists which arose from the Seine, and penetrating every crack and crevice, causing the unhappy inmate toshiver with dread, as if struck by a blast from a eharnel house. The blind girl's sufferings were fearful. For a moment all would be quiet as the tomb, and then, startled by some unusual noise, the rats which infested the dismal place would scamper from their hiding-places causing Louise to shrink with fear from the almost unearthly noise of which she knew not the meaning. Her imagination, vivid as it is in the blind, peopled the fearful place with terrors which were intensified by being unseen. During the hours of the day, and yet mure ureaiy ones 01 i lie nigni.poor Louise crouched close to the low roof, trembling at every new noise caused by the wind or waves, and even praying that she might he visited bv her brutal captors; for much as she dreaded them, the sound of a human voice would be a relief to her overtaxed nerves. After what seemed to her many days, but was in reality little more than twenty-four hours', Louise heard the sound of heavy footsteps on the stairs, and immediately after, the door was unlocked, and a man entered. The voice which she heard told her plainly that it was Jacques who had visited her, and much as she feared him, she gladly welcomed his coining. Inst inctively, she knew t hat he was gazing upon her, and before she spoke, she sunk upon her knees before him in an attitude of supplication. "If you have any pity in your heart ^ "-if you ever knew what it is to suffer ?take me from this fearful place." The tears which rolled down her pale cheeks showed how intense was her agony; but it had no effect upon the wretch before her. A coarse, brutal laugh was the only answer to her pleadings, and she sunk upon the floor almost lifeless. Villain as he was, Jacques saw that their victim could not survive her imprisonment many hours longer; for even as it was, her day of terror had changed the rosycheeked Normandy girl as much as would many days of severe sickness. The pallid checks, the deep, dark circles under the eyes, and the marks of suffering that were to be read in cverv feature of her delimte i,,ui how severe had heen her anguish. "You are better fitted for your business now than you were before you came here," said .Jacques, as he exulted over the misery, and delighted in t lie pain lie had been I lie means of causing. "(jhjtake me away take me away! 1 wilpfto as you tell ine!" she pleaded. "Will you beg?" "Yes?yes!" "Well,come along then," and he grasped her by the arm, which was protected only by a t hin covering of coarse cotton, with a force that caused her to scream with pain. "Devilish tender, ain't you?" he asked, with a chuckle, as he brutally dragged her toward the doorway. "Well is she willing to help her friends now?" asked the shrill tones of Mother Frochard's voice, as Louise and Jacques appeared in the doorway. "1 guess she'll behave herself now," laughed Jacques, as he forced the blind girl to descend the stairs without any assistance from him. "Oil, very well?very well?my line lady," said the old woman, as she led Louise to a seat near the table. "If you have been there long enough, 1 suppose you'd like to have something to eat, you ungrateful hussy?" "1 am very hungry, madame," faltered Louise. "Well, it's a good thing," snarled the old woman, "you'll know how to appreciate what you get after this." Jacques, seated ast ride of the chair, with his arms resting on the back, enjoyed the scene with evident /.est, while Louise listened anxiously for Pierre's sympathizing voice. Let us leave this scene for a while, and follow Henrietta, while she accompanies her deliverer from the beautiful, but vile garden of Hel-Air. They had reached the street before Hcnriettc ventured to speak to the chevalier of her grat itude for t he assistance he had rendered her. Then, in a voice trembling with emotion, she uuuMKcu nun ior ms interference, and 1 jogged him to show her the way to the place where she had been robbed of her sister. The distance was very great, and during the walk the Chevalier Do Vaudrey learned all of the history of the beautiful girl whom lie had rescued from such a fearful fate: but in reply to t lie probable fate of her sister, he'could not conscientiously lighten her heart. "Hut 1 shall find her. shall I not, monsieur?" asked Ilenriette, looking up into Ids face witii an imploring gaze. For a moment De Vaudry thought, he would toll her how little chance there was for finding a lost girl immediately, unless some kind, honest people had taken compassion on her, and even then it would require several days. Hut as he looked into her beaub ' - -- ? ? ilful eyo.s, and saw 1 here t hd hope tlnd ! on^ing that was mirrored in them, he ' onId not speak those words which .vould plunge her into despair. Therefore he assumed a liopeful air, ] .vhieh was very far from being sincere, < nid replied: I "We shall lind your sister, mademoi- I idle, but you must not get discouraged I if it takes several days, for we can I iiope to lind no dew to where she has Done." i llenriette was not satisfied w it h the answer. but she said nothing, and in a < few moments more they had reached : I lie Normandy coach otllce. i The most persistent inquiry revealed nothing relative to Louise's whereabouts. No one had seen her except 1 when she was with her sister, and it i was w ith a heavy and sorrowful heart > I iiaf llenriet l?' was forced to relinquish the search until the morrow. The chevalier conducted her to a iKKirding-house, where, after a brief recital of llenriette's history, she was allowed to remain. < Need we recount t lie many long and fruit less searches of that faithful sistor for the blind orphan? Can the reader not guess that,*charmed by the beauty of face ami mind of the beaut iful ilonr lotto, the Chevallor do Vaud* rey was ready to lling away all dreams of wealth and kingly favor, and entreat the young ^"?r 1 to become his wife? And why should we deseril>eall of Louise's sufferings for three months? They were surely such as would melt tho heart of a stone to pity, and yet her cruel captors showed no mercy. Therefore we will pass over three months, during which each day, to 1 K.?t 11 the. sorrowing orphans, brought the same sad story of misery and despair, and in our noxt chapter present a new scene to the reader. CHAPTER X. Til 10 MINISTER OK POLICE. The newly appointed minister of t>olice was the Count de Linieres, as we heard at the garden of Bel-Air. lie was the uncle, and until that young gent.loman attained his majority. the guardian of the Chevalier Maurice de Vaudrcy. Count de Linieres was of a very old and proud family, but the hope of dlslint'tioll i nrl 1I hill! 'uvmnt I\f tin. high oflici' tendered ldin by tlie king, who honored liiin for his sterling wort h. It is shortly after his accession to onicc, and before 11? is well acquainted with the intricate workings of lite \ast and complicated body over which lie is the acknowledged head, that we present him to our readers. A tall, portly old gentleman of some sixty years of age is lie, and one who as a friend would be true, and as an enemy, Implacable. < >11 this particular afternoon he has just dismissed several of his subordinates, and is now giving some necessary instruct ion to the ellicf clerk. "I desire. ' said the count, "that there slum Id be no relaxation In the severity of the police toward gambling dens, low drinking places, and other haunts of crime. Professional beggars, too. must be driven from thostreets. These orders were delivered in the tone of a man who, having weighed what he is about to say, expects to be obeyed. "Their number increases daily," replied the clerk, with a gesture expressive of humility and deference. "The king is desirous that a stop be put to the scandals that disgraced the administration of the police during the preceding reign," continued Do Linieres, speaking slowly. "Night brawls went unpunished, and abductions. bringing shame and disgrace upon many honest families, were of common occurrence. And apropos of that subject., 1 have here a report which needs an explanation. How is it possible that a young girl could be abducted in the open streets at eight o'clock in the evening, and there should be no one to oppose such an out rage?" "There are scoundrels in Paris audacious and dexterous enough to do anything,'' replied the clerk, as if that were sulllcicnt excuse for t lie shortcomings of the detect ives. "Where were the police?" asked the count, sternly. "They have discovered the accomplices of the chief actor," said the clerk.trylng to evade an answer to the chief's very pertinent inquiry, "and compelled them to confess." "Three months have elapsed since that most daring outrage, and the really guilty ones, the instigators of the crime, have not been punished," said be Liniercs, with a look of reproach at his subordinate. "That's due. my lord, to certain circumstances," was the answer, or perhaps, we should say excuse. "What circumstances?" said the count, in evident surprise that any circumstances should prevent the punishment of a crime where the perpetrators had been discovered. "To whom does this chateau of Bel-Air belong;." "To the Marquis de Presles," answered the cleric. "be I'resles!" repeated the count. "An ancient and illustrious family, whose last scion would not hesitate to stake all its glories on the cast of a die, or the thrust of a sword in a drunken brawl. But the gii! after the duel, what became of her. "She was carried olT by?by the antagonist of the marqois," was tile hesitating answer that aroused the count s suspicions at once, and lie asked, quick'y, while lie eyed tlie clerk with dist rust: "The name of the marquis's opponent. What is it?" "The Chevalier Maurice de Vaudrey," replied the clerk, with reluctance. "My nephew!" replied the old gentleman, in surprise, while an expression of pain passed over his face at the thought that i>is nephew, whom he loved so dearly, and whom he had supposed to be t he soul of honor, should 1)0 engaged in what he supposed to l>e a drunken brawl. After a moment's reflection he turned to the old clerk, who was regarding his chief with a look of sorrow, and said, in a voice that was singular soft and sweet for a man. "1 appreciate the sentiment that aused you to hesitate." The clerk l>owed low, and was turning away, when the count stopped him. "For the future, sir, remember that just ice is no rcspector of perosons." The chief's voice was now as harsh and c ommanding as it was before low and soft . v\ ic yuu sure i nai ll was I lie (Jlicvaliar dc Vaudrey?" "(^uite sure. We have a list of all who were nresent holli ladies and Kent leinen.' "These gentlemen," said l)c Llnleres, in an angry tone,"must l?e made to understand that such orgies will be to crated no longer. It. is not enough to bear a noble name, it must be liorne worthily: and these ladies must choose bet ween Salpetrierc and exile." "Do you wish, my lord, that that affair should be entered in the secret archives of the police?" "The secret archives of the police," asked the count hi great surprise ithat tljoro should l?e anything of thfl kind. "l)o such records really uilsLY" "Certainly, my lord/' said the clerk, wondering not a little at the ignoranee of his chief. "The secret and complete history of every noble family In ! ranee may Ik; found there. You have but to mention a name, and in live minutes, the desired volume will Ik? in your hands." The count remalnedin deep thought for a few moments. There had been In his house, as in every man's, a skeleton In the closet, ind that skeleton was some secret sorrow that prayed upon his wife, who was a De Vaudrey. If the old clerk's words were true, then here was an opportunity for him lo discover what he had so long vainly sought. Here he could, without humbling himself to any one, penetrate that mystery in his wife's life which she had so long and successfully concealed. Hut it must Iks done at the expense of his honor, and at the moment there was a great struggle going on in his mind. Should he avail himself of this information which 'us position entitled him to Dossess.hut which iii< imh1wv?i revolted at? At lasi it was decided in his mind. He would have ihe volume completed, and at some future time, when lie should he more accustomed to the idea, lie would refer to it. If the history of The house of De Vaudrey Is there, let that history he completed," he said quickly, as if afraid to linger near the temptation any longer. The clerk Ik)wed low, and departed upon his mission,and-at tho same time lie went out, lMcard, the magnificent, who allowed himself to he called valet to the Chevalier De Vaudrey, entered. "Ah, Heard, I am glad that you have come. I wish to speak to you al>out your master, llow is lie behaving himself?" Here was a chance for lMcard which he was not disposed to let slip him, and after his extravagant bows, he answered in 11is peculiar voice: "Withall due respect, my lord, his conduct is scandalous, pel feet ly scan dalous, and unbecoming a nobleman of ins rank." Picard looked tor some expression of surprise upon his listener's face, and failing to see it there, continued, in an injured tone, as if his master's behavior was a reflection upon him as a servant. "Formerly he had a few gent lemen associates, with whom he occasionally amused himself," said lMcard, slowly, "and saw life, thereby giving me so in or' opportunities. Alas! it is dill'erei/ now. For the last three months | lias changed entirely. Indeed, if lord, my life has become so nionot ous, that a man of spirit like my cannot stand it any longer." "Am 1 to understand that you wi> to leave his service?" asked the min ter, with a preoccupied look upon li. face. "Yes, nvy lord!" exclaimed l'lcai eagerly, "The chevalier, your uephe has principles which 1 can 110 length accent,. They clash with all my opinions, and although the chevalier thinks proper to compromise his nobility, 1 can not compromise my livery," and a look of virtuous indignation was Plcard's round face, giving it a very comical appearance. "Very well," said l>e Liniercs, "I will take you back into my service." "You will!" exclaimed Picard, in delight, and then giving a sigh of relief, and straightening himself upas far as ids diminutive stature would permit, he added: "Ah, my lord, you have relieved me, and 1 resume my personal dignity." "I will do as I have said, on one condition." added the count, and at tliis, Pieard's face lengthened wonderfully. "l wish you to remain for a time with my nephew. It is important that 1 should know his movements. 1 could employ the police, but 1 have already learned too much from them, and through you who arc attached to him, 1 desire to know tlie rest "The rest?" echoed Picard, in amazement. "What lias lie been doing?" and now his face brightened as ho thought himself upon the verge, of discovery of an escapade of his master's, which was all the faithful valet hungered for. "They know that after the duel"The duel! What duel?" interrupted Picard, forgetting, in his eagerness to know all, the respect due the minister of pollee. "Do you pretend not to know that he killed the Marquis l)e l'resless in a duel aliout a woman?" asked the count, wiille lie regarded the valet with a piercing gaze. "lie fought a duel, and dangerously wounded his antagonist, and on account, of a woman!" exclaimed Picard, in an ecstasy of delight that 11 is master should be concerned in such affairs, which Picard considered the only proper thing for a nobleman to do. "Oh, tiie sly dog and I wanted to leave < him!" "No -no! not yet," said the count, quickly, catching t he last of t he valet's remark, without hearing the tirst. "I desire that you remain with him, and discover where he hides himself." "Ofcourse 1 will," exclaimed Pieard, now perfectly willing to remain witli the chevalier any length of time. "L thought lie would not disgrace the blood of a French nobleman. Certainly, I'll llnd out tills saucy little beauty for whom he neglects all his friends," and lie added, in a tone of a connoisseur, "of course she must he little and saucy, with a jaunty, piquant air. That's the style 1 like." "Oil, indeed!" said tlie count in surprise. " Doubt less lie had jlonc everything in good style," cont inued lMcard, who in ids ecstasy was impervious to everything but the one satisfactory Idea that now engrossed alibis thoughts, "lie lias nrobably taken some elegant, quiet little house, the rooms hung in velvet, and furnished in silk and laces, with everything of the sort." "Why, at that rate you will ruin your master," said the count, surprised at this phase of Hoard's character, which he had never seen licfore. "if she's worth the trouble, where's the harm in a little ruin?" asked tho valet, innocently. How much longer Heard would have continued to express his delight, and what he might not have, said to further surprise the count, is a matter of conjecture, for at this moment the Countess de Lin teres was announced, and the count at once dismissed Picard, with an injunction not to forget Ills orders. it r ...m ~i ? j win uuey mom, my iora," said the valet, as he l>owed himself out, and during his walk to iiis master's house, he muttered to the Infinite delight of the gamins who heard him, "Oh, Master Chevalier, you are a sly dog, and I thought you a saint." As the countess entered, her husband Sreetcd her affectionately, and connoted her to a seat. "I was about to come to you," said the count, "but you have anticipated me. I dslrc to speak with you on the subject of your nephew, the Chevalier de Vaudrey, and to ask you to prcpar i*M .Vrt ' I 1 IHTH ' JL < ?* * him Cor the marfiagc which tli? king"?" "Wishes to Impose on him," Interrupted the countess, bitterly. I "Impose on him?" repeated De Linicrs. "It is a magnificent alliance, which will complete the measure of tlie distinguished honors with which his majesty deigns to favor us." "Have you spoken to tlie chevalier yet V" "Not but | am expecting him every moment, and I wished to talk witli him in your presence." As if this conversation had some influence over him, De Vaudrey entered at this moment. "Ah, Chevalier!" exclaimed the county, "i am glad to see you. The countess and myself have an important communicat ion to make to you." l>e Vaudrey looked at his uncle in I surpise. -V*....-!--. ?? ?'J A'ljr UVUI Kldlll ICC, SilIU HIP I'Olinl, after a moment's hesitation,"the king did me the honor to receive me yesterday, and he s|x>ke of you." "Of ineV" asked be Vaudrcy, in surprise. "lie takes a groat interest in you," continued be Linieres, speaking quickly, and In a forced tone, "lie wishes you to accept a position at court, and desires, at the same time, that you should marry." As the count said tills, he watched be Van drey's face with an intcntness that was almost painful, lie expected to know by this means whether the stories which appeared to be so well authenticated were true, and he sin. ccrely hoped that he might he able to believe them the fabrications of some enemy. Marry?" asked be Vaudrcy, as though lie could not believe his uncle really meant what lie said. The countess waited as anxiously for be Yaudrey's answer as did her husband, although from a different reason. She loved the young man before her, and his happiness and well-being were very dear lo her. My dear nephew," she said, kindly, "1 see that this news surprises you. Yet there is no fear that the king's choice will do violence to your feelings. The lady whom his majesty has chosen litis yout li beauty and fortune." "in proof of which 1 have only to tell you 11 nit his choice is Mademoiselle " the count attempted lo say but was interrupted by the chevalier.
