Oft 111 the HtlUy Mailt.
Oft in tile stilly night,
Ere sllimbers chain lias bound mo,
Fond memory brings the light
Of other days arotind me;
The smiles, the tears,
t >f boyhood's years,
The words of love then spoken:
The eyes that shone.
Now dimmed and gone.
The cheerful hearts now broken.
Thus in the stilly night,
Ere si umber's chain has bound me,
Sad memory brings the light
Of other days around me.
When 1 reniemlier all
The friends so linked together
I've seen around me fall,
Like leaves in wintry weather,
I feel like one
Who t rends alone
Some banquet hall deserted.
Whose lights are tied.
Whose garlands dead,
Ami all hut he departe.d.
Thus in t he st illy night.
Ere slumber's chain has bound ine,
Sad memory brings the light
Of other days around me.

"O llBATKIt UIVH II \T1I NO M \ N THAN
this."
Hcnrictte's cry of despair, as she mi
dorstood that she was condemned t<
exile, rung through the corridors oi
the orison, causing all who hoard it t<
shudder involuntarily.
In the intensity of lier grief. which
had caused t lie cry, it sounded more
like the wail of a strong man in his
agony, rather than that of a young
girl.
i'icard evinced the greatest conster
nation. "I'll go to the Hostile and inform
the chevalier," he thought.
ilenrictto, turning to Marianne,who
was standing near in the hopes that
she might he able to render some assistance.
said, in a world-weary voice:
"Ah! now 1 understand why one
may wish to die."
"Do not speak so, mademoiselle,"
entreated Marianne. "Kemeinboi'tlie
words of hope you spoke to me."
"If vou have a family, think of
t hem," said t he good doctor, anxious
to t urn t he t houghtsof I lie poor girl to
something beside, her own misery.
"Think of master, the chevalier,"
said l'icard, in a tone which plainly
said: " Koniember the plan which we
have formed for your escape."
"Ah! monsieur!" said llenriette to
the physician, "exile lias no terrors for
me. 1 do not weep for my own misfortunes."
"She lias a sister of whom she was
the sole support /'exclaimed Mai iatme
"A sister who is blind."
"1 bad found her at the moment
when they arrested me," added Henri
ette, sorrowfully. "I heard her voice
1 saw her. She was covered w ith rags
and her beautiful golden hair fell ii
disorder on her shoulders. She wa;
being dragged along l>y a horrible ok
woman, who 1 know ill-treats her
beats her, perhaps, and they would noi
let mo go to her. Now 1 have lost hei
forever forever!"
Aim iiKnin i nc soreiy men gin nurs
into a Hood of bitter tears, while Mari
anne supported the slight form in lie
arms.
"Wait a minute, my child," ex
claimed the physician, as a suddei
thought. Hashed over him. "I belieyi
I have met that very same girl."
"You, monsieur?" exclaimed Henri
ette, in surprise.
"Yes- yes, a young girl led by an oh
woman, who called herself Louise."
"Yes -yes, that's her name," am
the young girl now became breathles'
with excitement.
"1 know the old woman, too. She i!
called La Froehard." continued tin
doctor, while Henrietta listened ahx
iously to every word he spoke.
"La Froehard!" exclaimed Heard
quickly. "An old hag that goes aLiui
whining for alms in the name o
Heaven and seven small children';
Where does she live?"
Marianne shuddered.
She knew full well what mercy nnj
one might expect at the hands of tin
Frochards, and she resolved that tin
blind girl should be rescued from thcli
vile grasp.
"She lives in a hovel by the river
side," six; said quickly, and as if il
pained her even to be obliged to spent
of the family. "It was formerly user
as a Ijoatrhouge: but has long been oc
copied by thieves and the worst clas?
of criminals. There Is a seeret en
trance from the Kite Noir; but it is
difficult to Hnd and always cftrefulh
guarded."
"Never mind that," said Pieard,
contemptuously, "the police Qf Paris
eatt find their secret entrances: if not
we will capture the main one. I must
go to t lie ltiust ile first, and t rv to oll'eet
my master's rolease. Then we will g<
to this boat-house."
And away Pieard darted In tin
greatest haste, lull or the import ance
of the task he had undertaken, and re
solved to accomplish it at any cost.
"You are sure she lives i here?" ask
ed Henrietta, cagearly, and forget tinj.
for the moment that slit: was a prison
er, hurrying toward the gate. "Thei
we will go sit once. Thank Hod, I hav<
found my dear sister again!"
As she reached t he gate she sudden
ly remembered her cruel position, uiu
how impossible it was for her to tak<
a single step toward liberating hei
sister.
The shoek was a great one, and she
sunk down cowering and trembling
while she murmured, in a choked, st i
tied voice:
"Oh, I'm to be sent away awaj
from her."
"No?no, mademoiselle," exclaimed
Marianne, passionately, as she caught
Henriette's hand, and pressed it tohei
lips: "you need not you shall not In
sent away!"
"What do you mean?" asked tlx
doctor, as soon as he could wipe awaj
his tears, for Marianne's positive assurance
start led him.
"I need not be sent away?" repeated
Henrictte. "Look at these guards wh(
have been sent to take me, who wait
forme," and she pointed to the sol
diers, who stood like grim statute:
ranged along the side of the yard. Aik
as she looked upon their stern face:
that seemed never to have known what
pity was. her grief broke out anew.
"Oh, Louise! my sister, my poor dar
ling!" she walled, while she covcret
her face with her hands as if to shu
out the sight of those who were t<
force her to leave France and her sis
ter, branded as a fallen woman.
"1 tell you that you need not go,'

happy girl's question.
At this moment, tin; unfortunate
prisoners wliose names were on the lisi
of those condemned to exile, enterec
the court-yard, accompanied try tin
otltcers of tlie guard.
The kind-hearted Sister Genevieve
whoso duty It was to inform the un

heai the physician's reply, tho niflc i
who had l>een consult ing 11is list, said
"I needed another prisoner to com

Ilenrietto started as though she had
received a blow, imt before she. could
speak. Marianne van toward tho^uard
su\ mrr:
"Here, monsieur."
The act took 11 en riot to so complete
lv t>\ surprise, that slie could only give
utterance to a low cry, which sounded
like a groan.
In an instant the doctor had com
prehendod all that Marianne would do
and although the sacrifice wasgreatei
than seemed possible for human being"
to make, hoaId not attempt to pre
vent it. but grasped Ilenriette by tin
arm to prevent her from speaking.
"Your sister's fate depends upor
your silence!" he whispered, and un
- del" t ho influence of that magic name
she was silent.
The olllcer motioned Marianne t<
take her place with the other, pris
oners, hut she said, imploringly: " Per

11c niol ioned an impatient consent
and Marianne, crossing ever lo lien:

Now did t he poor orphan I'nlly un
(hostand all l lie outcast had consented
) to do for her, and much as she loved
he sister, she could not accept the

"No -no," she murmucd. "I can
not. I will not consent!"
" 11 ush!" exclaimed Marianne, plae.
ing her hand over her companion's
mouth. "It is not you whom J save,
llenriette, it is myself. If 1 remain,
Jacmios will find mo again, and once

\nam did t lie spell which l.onise's

sacrifice which was being made for
her, and she murmured her sister's
name in a da zed, happy way.
' Mere. take this,'' said MaiiJiNiV. asshe
handed her the paper-wiiieh'only a
short time before she had received with
so many expressions of delight.
it was the pardon which allowed Iter

and of her own free will, she.was a hunt

* "A greater love hath no man than

surely Marianne's love and gratitude
far exceeded this, for slio was dooming
. herself to a whole lit'e-t line of misery,
llenriette could not take the pardon
so freely offered, and Marianne looked
at the doctor, as if to implore him te
. induce t he poor girl to do so.
, "Take lit," he said, in a row voice,.
1 "Your sister's fate depends upon it."
After,some hesitation, llenriette

CKVKLTY AND SI KKKHINO.
Again do we find t he poor blind girl
in the squalid hut of the l-'rochards.
Their cruelty has so worn upon the
young girl that she has wasted away
to but a shadow ol her former self, and
now hardly seems able to walk.
We lind her lying upon her miser1
able straw bed, in a light, troubled
> sleep, while over her bends Pierre, the
honest -heart ed cripple.
As he ga/.es upon her attenuated
features, the tears of pity and lovt
I Hood his eyes, and he murmurs:
) "Poor child! 80 young so weak si
t lovely, and yet condemned to so hard t
fate. Ah, me! I can do nothing, .lac

I were to gain courage enough to make
t one step toward her release, he wouk

He had unconsciously spoken t ho lasi
words quite loud, and they awoke tlx

Klsing herself upon her arm, sh<
2 asked, in a timid voice:
I ' " Who's t here?"
I "ItIs I. mamzelle Pierre."
i "Ah, I'ierrc!" she exclaimed, with .1
sigh of relief and thankfulness. "I
, am glad it is you. I may sleep a lit t k

"'Oh, I aiH BO tired!" she exclaimed,
as s.ii?* lay down again upon the ham

1 \s fenderly as a mother could cover

and wit 11 tender solicit tide did lie
I watch over her tint il she lost herself in
i sleep again.
I "Yes. sleep, |>oor child!" he said, as
ho watched her, "and forget your misery.
She seems calmer now: perhaps
she's dreaming of happier davs. of

Louise moved uneasily in her sleep,
and in a low, sweet voice, she murmured:
" 1 Icnriet t e - sistej sister!"
Pierre went hastily toward her,

lie soon understood why she hud
spoken.
"She was dreaming of liersister." lie
said. "A smile lights up her pallid

il way to net along with people is to <

K you will n it need (o care whether
others soek you or not. Make sure
q that you, yourself, are pure gold, atul '
you wilt not then feel like questioning (

1 on another as being very much your <
superior, and never fawn upon your <

y the very aired, the timid, the weak,

{ dress as the standard of value. Treat

vatc and store your mind with know'
ledge, and make yourself interesting.
If you do not Interest enough to at*

discover why. Do not force yourself
upon another. The Interesting girl
must lie or seem interested; do in t
think of yourself to the exclusion ol
