AGAIN. bright haul hn nd». between hi* It would serve no good purpose to de scribe the sad scenes at the old Chenier mill, where, amid her humble surround ings. Rosalie's sweet and patient mother died and was buried. Mrs. Roosevelt and her niece arrived just in time to re ceive the last words of the poor, wornout woman. Just here the veil must fall; we shall let a week pass after the bnriul before we again approach the threat] of onr story. Some days passed before Rosalie thought of showing her father the cross Julian had given her. She told him all the young man had said about Provence and Chateau Chenier. He listened and became absorbed, holding the dull gold cross in his palm the while and gazing fondly into the sweet, saddened eyes of his child. “Since I lost my limb,” he said in a sense of high present the yonng man to her father in the most favorable light, bat innate maidenly modesty for bade any unseemly haste to becoms his defender, it would lie hard to discover, and still harder to define, the amount of Advantage that the simple fact of Juli an’s visit to Provence gave him in hold ing his own in the estimation of tioth Rosalie and Colonel Chenier; for, al though the latter had never seen him, the croes and his words at second hand from Rosalie were sufficient to win for the yonng man a favorable prejudice in the old soldier’s heart. Still there was a great barrier to pass. Colonel Chenier nursed an implacable hatred against the men whose acts—in his judgment altogether unjustified by honorable rules of warfare—had ren dered him almost a pauper. The chains of poverty galled him and kept alive his enmity toward those whom ho habitually called Sherman's thieves. Against them he charged up all the toil, privation and humiliation of these “reconstruction years” through which he had dragged himself, a pitiable and despondent crip ple. He often said that the man who shot him in battle, if he could ever find him, should have his forgiveness and friendship; but the vandals who burned his house and assaulted his daughter, who devastated his plantation and en ticed away his slaves, should never be recognised as fellow citizens by him. Aunt Marguerite used Colonel Che nier’s season of grief to the effect of bringing about a reconciliation lietween her husband and her brother. A trouble had arisen between Mr. Roosevelt and Colonel Chenier over political differences many years lief ore. One had been a Whig, the other a Democrat They had come near fighting over the question of the war with Mexico. Mr. Roosevelt ardently opjiosed the war policy, Colonel Chenier just as fervidly defended it. The result was a rupture. So, after the great calamities of personal dis figurement and hopeless poverty had fallen upon Wilton Chenier with the ending of the rebellion, Mrs. Roosevelt bad labored hard to bring these two fool ish enemies together. Her husband finally consented, but Colonel Chenier, her brother, rejected the offer. Now she had adroitly approached the latter under cover of his domestic bereave meat, and bad reached his heart while it was laid bare. Rosalie added her sweet influence, and the stern man was con quered. In short, the result was, ns we have said, a reconciliation. it was finally agreed that the remains of Mrs. Chenier should lie taken up and removed to Savannah anil entombed in lovely old Donaventure, and that the Chenier family should go to Roosevelt Place, to remain there until prepara melancholy tone, “and have been able to , . do nothing else, I have longed a great bons could lie made for too trip to the deal td goto Provence and see for my- J, ncestnU estate in Provence. Aunt Marguerite cleverly humored this Pro vencal dream, whose fanciful threads had, as she discovered, wound them selves about the imaginations of father and daughter; she made everything serve her turn, in fact. Rosalie had be come iier idol, and to keep that idol near her was her constant solicitude and study. self.” “And shall wo not go some day, papa?’ she inquired, slipping her arm geutly around his neck. He shook his head. “Too [Hair, dear, too poor,” he replied; “it requiree a great deal of money to travel.” "But, papa, l am not poor; Uncle Roosevelt has settled au incouie of ten thousand a year on me in my own right! Colonel Chenier raised his head and gazed incredulously into her face. “Yon will let me take you, won’t you, papa?" she sweetly continued; “Aunt Marguerit r ays she will go with us.” He could not answer, but ho took her bright bead between his hands and kissed her forehead. Her voice was more than music in his ears. “It is a long, long way, and 1 am growing old,” ho presently said, “but I do not regard this as my country now; 1 should like to live the rest of my days in Provence, and at last mingle my dust with that of onr ancestors.” “We will go,” said Rosalie earnestly; “we will go and see, even if we do not stay. Mr. Jnlian says he sat upon an old wall at Chateau Chenier and saw the moon come up from behind a hill crowned with olive trees, just as it is de scribed in the troubadour song you taught me. Mr. Julian likes all my lit tle French songs.” Colonel Chenier looked calmly askance at his daughter and wondered if this Mr. Julian had touched her fancy. “i wish I could see your young north erner,” he presently said; “you have made me like him; is he agreeable, is be baudsome, Rosalie?” “I hardly know bow to answer. He is kind, affable, polite, and 1 am sura he is honorable; but one can hardly call him handsome. He's a great big, strong man, broad faced, deep eyed, and, 1 think, remarkably intellectual." “How does he feel toward southern people? Is he a radical?" "Ho seems liberal; he and Uncle Roosevelt have grown to be great friends, and you know Uncle Roosevelt cannot tolerate a radical. ” “Has be made a very warm friend of you, Rosalie?” “Oh. yes, 1 like him very much," she said with emphasis. Colonel Chenier smiled; it was the first since the death at the mill. “You haven't let him convert you to the Yankee idea, have you?" he inquired, toying with the cross and throwing a little touch of pleasantry into his voice. “No, not that, but I like the north, especially the west, and the people up there are delightful; they are so uinch in earnest, so thrifty and industrious, and yet so kind and hospitable. You’d like Chicago, papa. 1 know you would, and you’d like Mr. Julian too.” “Perhaps, perhaps," said Colonel Chenier in a tone of doubt. "I suppose he is too young to have been in the Yankee army.” “Oh. he was with Sherman all the way to the sea,” said Rosalie quickly; “be remembers all the little towns along the line of march; he spoke of Dalton, Resaca, Calhoun, Kingston and Mari etta; lie was a mere boy, bnt he went through it all." A grim, ashen shadow settled over Colonel Chenier's face as her words called up the memory of his burned up home and devastated plantation, bis slaves set free and his fortune dissipated by the breath of that army of Sherman's. “He was one of the bouse burners and woman insnlters then, perhaps." “Oh, no, he wouldn't do (bat; he's too much of a gentleman to ever have been guilty of such acta," she quickly ex claim'd, her voice full of earnest faith in the young man's innocence. “He is a piod honorable,conscientious man, not at all what 1 imagined a northerner ui bo; but, in fact, papa, all the northern people are different from what we hare thought them; they are really charm ing.” "They were infernal vandals when they marched with Sherman, no matter what they are now.

J' ^ A. ^ " Y'oa are a murderer and an ritxmodn. ” It was not until after the agreement had been made touching the abandon ment of the old mill that Rosalie began to feel something of her early love for the “pocket" returning in the shape of a tender, sorrowful regret. She clambered along the little stony path np to the spring where she used to sit ami read the romances and poems of knightly days, but she took no book with her now. It s with greater difficulty than for merly that she surmounted the big frag ments of mountain stone and the mossy logs that lay in the way. Her neatly fitting black dress was not fashioned for such freedom of action, and then, per haps, these mouths of indoor life and physical restriction may have eliminated some of her birdlike lightness of move ment. As she passed along under the green pines and red brown oaks, she heard a cardinal grosbeak whistling shrilly, and some bluejays were chattering in the thickets along the hillside. The brook Drawled over ite stones and slipped across its sandy shallows in the old happy way. The sharp fragrance of pino resin, and the fine, rare odor of liquid amber gum filled the air How long ago it seemed, that last time she was here, and what a world lay between then and now! She sat down upon the gray lichen blotched Etone where Ellis had found her when he was skulking from the detectives. It was with a thrill that she recollected that meeting and what followed. The lall, handsome, brigandish fellow, armed to the teeth, finu, alert, ready for a dar ing deed, had left a strong romantic im pression in her memory Along with the thought came its fragrance, so to speak, and she felt a warm blnsh of maidenly shame tingle in her cheeks at recalling the mysterious pleasure his loverlike ac tions had given her. She rested her el- oows upon her lap and hid her face in her hands. Just then a rich, manly voice called her name. ‘Rosalie!” it was so infinitely tender and musical! She looked np quickly, with a great throbbing in her breast. •Rosaliel” it repeated. Ellis stood before her, dressed in a short gray jacket and loose trousers, a orown sportsman's shirt and a dark scarlet scarf , heavy top boots and a wide brimmed brown felt hat completed his attire, and he bore in his right hand a long alpenstock, while on his left shoul der woe slung a light rifle. There were thoee same fearless dark eyes, the olive cheeks, the drooping mustache, the flra, well set chin, the tall, strong form She aJuiuKl leaped to her feet, then, feeling a sodden weakness, sat down again. <1 dreamed last night that you would ok tiers m uus deer psaos, ana t nave come all the way over the mountain to find yon.

'I did not want to see yon." ‘Why. Rosalie, why?” be exclaimed, sitting down near her. ‘what have I done to offend yon? Tell me, tell mel* He was already growing pale She sprang to her feet; she was weak no longer, her eyes flashed. ‘Yon are a murderer, an assassin, and dare to ask me what you have done! Yon who struck Colonel Talbot in the night when he waa"— ‘Miss Chenier!” be exclaimed, rising as he spoke, ‘what do yon mean?" She looked steadily, passionately at him. Fresently she cried: ‘What do I mean? Yon know what 1 mean! Oh Mr Ellis, 1 conld not have be lieved you so wicked!" •Rosalie—Miss Chenier—you are cer tainly laboring nnder some horrible mistake.” he said in a hoarse voice and involnntarily taking a step nearer her. 'Won t you explain" 'Let your owuconscience. If yon have one" 'Miss Chenier, I do not know what you mean," he emphatically cried. ‘ What 1 mean! wbut 1 mean!” she dis dainfully related. •Can it be possible," be slowly ex claimed, as if something were dawning upon bis mind, “can it be possible that you are accusing me of doing that injury to Colonel Talbot from which be is still so mysteriously suffering? (Jood heavens, Rosalie!" be added after a few moments of silence, during which time his syet did not turn from her face, “how terri bly yon have wronged me!" Her eyes searched his with an luten sity that nothing hut otter innocence could have withstood, it would seem and yet he bore It without a waver He seemed, indeed, to meet it and wel come it ‘1 wonld rather you would kill me outright than for you to insinnate so awful a charge." he went on, feeling the poverty of language in so great a need His voice began to gather up its fascina ting sweetness and flexibility. Rosalie faltered and trembled as the magnetism of his unshrinking face over came her. She sank down upon the stone pale and exhausted. He was by her side in a moment ‘Explain this mystery, this dark, hor rible insult to my honor, Rosalie!” he pleaded, speaking rapidly and passion ately “How could you get such a thing Into your mind? Who has been poison ing you against me by hinting such a malicious and unfounded accuaation?” ‘No oue." she said; “no oue. 1—i thought yon did it’ 'But how could your he impatiently cried. '1 can't see how you could Whatever started you to thinking it?" ‘We saw you following us.” s1m> said scarcely above a whisper. •Following you—us—whom do you mean'?” ‘Colonel Talbot and me.” she an •wered. ‘Folio.ring you where?" •That night in the street—the night he wae hurt" 'Following you the night he waa hurtl Why, Rosalie. 1 was not in Sa vannah that night 1 did not know he was hurt till 1 saw the papers next day 1 was at Jessup that night* There was such a ring of surprised and injured innocence—such a reproach in his voice—that she felt her heart shrink and fintter. ‘If you are innocent—if 1 have wronged you — forgive mel” she ex claimed. She rose as she spoke, and for a moment stood before him iu a falter ing attitude “It may all be cleared np some time, i cannot see yon any more until it is. 1 hope you are innocent but, bnt—1—1 believe yon are guilty." He sprang up. The pallor in his face was awful. His eyes shot clear flames. His cheeks and forehead seemed to shrivel ‘It is a lie! a damned infenial iiel 1 will not bear itt” His lips were flecked with froth. "And this from you, Rosa Iiel” he cried, “from you whom 1 love more tlian all the worldl My (Jod, can you believe this? If all the world were marshaled against me to believe a lit.

For a moment he hesi tated. then in a dry, strange voice he said; “If the villain who struck Colonel Talbot is above ground I will find him.' He turned about aa he finished speaking and strode away through the woods. “Mr EllUr Rosalie called out after bim He stopped and looked back. She has Rated. She hardly knew what the wanted to say to him “Do not be angry, please," she qua vered “Never think of—of revenge again, will you?” Her voice was thin and mournful, like the cry of the drab vireo beyond her in the dnsky wood.

He stood a mere point of time, then resumed his way and disap peared amid the trees A strange, drear silence followed Rosalie returned to the mill with a great weight U[ion her heart She could not feel that she had done wrong, and yet she wished that the meeting could have been avoided.
