Kenmorc was too delicately faithful 1 to his young lady's dignity to betray his suspicions of the real depth and source of her sufferings: but his rancor against Edgar was all gone in the revulsion of feeling consequent upon recent oc- J currencies. When he could extract no more from his unwilling informant. Kd- i gar told hitn the whole story of hi< ace dent ami what followed. Amazement and wrath burst forth from Kenuiorc as he learned the fact of Sircombe having known all the time what Edgar's fate was. "The foul bend's in th; man!" muttered Ken more, perfectly aghast.. "Little I kont it was your life he coveted when 1 wa< rogue enough to ciogue wi nun ^-to row ye over to Sent land an' leave ye there!" Edgar had fallen down an unknown distance, and lay stunned for a long time. W hen ho recovered his senses he j found himself lying upon a bed of tine, i deep sand, in a cell or cavern, whose j waits of natural rock seetned to stretch 1 aloft to a great height. Ho never could j discover the opening through which he had faller. which was no wonder, since Sircoinbe had blocked it up while he j lay insensible, and besides it was far up beyond his reach. As his faculties returned to him. he laughed at his adventure: thinking tiiat j Sireombe would arrive at any moment ' with a rescuing party, when he would | return to I'lva with the news that he ] had discovered the dungeon of the [ southern bastion. He investigated the cell as well as ho i could by torch; it wa< dry. sanded, and i hf?pmotle?llv sealed bv the wall of living rock. As time passed and r.o one came to release him he began to feel uneasy, and 1 wondered whether it was possiole for Sircombe to lose the opening of the cavern, and to wa-te time in searching in a wrong direction. This he could scarcely credit, so peculiar had been the appearance of the , where they had halted; and his per- i Mikity grew hourly, although it never > H^Kcred his honorable soul that Sircorube 1 had abandon d him to his fate At last i he set to work in bitter earnest to liberate himself. Kound and round the base | of the wall he went, scooping out the sand with his hand *o find some possible j egress, till at 1 ngth he was rewarded. A former captivo had hewn out a narrowtunnel through the thick ijoss of the ' rock: and this tunnel Edgar found | choked with sand. He cleared it out, ! and crawling through, he was in a narrow passage, which in its turn brought ' him to another cave, and here lie lost himself in a inazo of natural eorridors and caverns wh:ch honeycombed the interior of Dunraven Cliff. He spent much time and strength in wandering through the labyrinth, climb- | ing narrow and rugged ascents, groping down dizzy and precipitous crevasses, where daylight never penetrated, though the atmosphere was dry and pure. At length he l!appened>uDon the tiny rivlet, a blessing indeed to the perishing man: and after drinking and bathing his fever-d temples in the crystal wattr, he followed its capricious wanderings with infinite toil and patience, until it brought him to a dead wall behind which he heard the roaring of the sea. lie was still making desnerat * efforts to find an outlet when ti e bessed sound of Renin ore's voire ramo to him. All this Edgar told Ken more in a fewwords, and not without painful excitement, for his sufferings had been frightful. "And now, all that I ask is that I may i get away unsuspected," said lie in conclusion. "I have stern work to do hefore my enemy may know that 1 have escaped alive." "Oh. sir, but will ye no tell the l ady Oolava ju-t her?" pleaded K Mimore; ' "she can keep faith, she's a tr ie Dunraven!" "??ut what right have I to burden her liappy heart wiih my grim secrets"" said Edgar, thirsting for new as-urauce of her sorrow for his suppo cd late. ..'Pi... imp .Ion's on her heart now." muttered Kenmore sadly troubled between the fear of saying loo much and of Kdgar leaving I'lva pining under a false delusion. "Oh, in- man. don't tempt me!" groaned Kdgar. "I'd give my life to see her sweet fare before I go?but I dare no:, lion i forbids See now, Ken more, I'll tell you all.

"Never mind that now, my brave i heart: it was all for love of Lady t'lva, . and surely I should forgive that'" said I Edgar, fervently. J*And now listen to i me. 1 tam going home to Inchcape, hoping to reconcile my lord with his guiltier lady. Hush! Attend. Mr. Si room he lias put himself in my power by this business, and I think I ran wrest the truth, which will prove her innocence, from him. in the presence of Lord Inchcape." Kcnmore stared with rapturous admiration in the young man's face. "I've just been an even-down ass!" said he. "To think that I wad:,a ken Ardeti of Inchcape wnen I fell against him! Lord! but ye'll be a braw pair!" -Thank you!" cried Edgar. rapturonsly: "then you think I may hope?'' "Why not ask hersel* afore yo' go?" "Because an honest man would win her father's consent first,''sighed Edgar. ' What if Lord Inchcape >hould say that Clva \tas not for mo? Then I should have disturbed her for nothing, bettor far that she should never know who it was that love 1 and lost her." He buried his fa e in his hands, for it was a bitter potion that honor pressed to his lips; and Kerunore begat* to feel a proud affection for tin- young man, and to own that lie might even l.e worthy of beautiful do.ava Then Kdgar oarefn-ly unfolded his scheme, instructing Keumoru in tho part that he was to play.

It afflicted him unspeakably to give them needless nain: vet. he feared that in spite of all warnings, their changed demeanor would betray the truth to >ircouibc, who would be doubly watchful and suspicious in his guilty se!f-conseiousncss. lie was determined fu the first afternative, namely, to leave them in ignorance of his safety?by the following considerations: If his hopes on behalf of l.ady Inch ape came to naught, and she was doomed never to he restored to her husband and home, then it would spare her much humiliation and distress if she never knew that her champion was Arden, the heir. If Lord Ineheape refused to give him the hand of his daughter, it might b;- as well to spare her the painful knowledge of the black tragedy which had brushed so elosely past her in Sircombe's attempted crime; as well as the embarrassing revelation that her would-be lover had presumed to conceal his iden tity from her. "It's farow^il, perhaps forever, sweet rival" sighed he; "but though I leave you. I leave my heart with vou, and I shall never get it back again!" Then Kcnmore brought his own clever skiff to the little haven, and helped the young man in: and in the darkest hour before the dawn Kdgar Arden sailed away from Sleat na-Vrecken, ble-sing it for his sweet love's sake.

Hal Crecy, being Master of the Fo\ JIunt for his county, and an ardent sportsman, was in ids glory, and presided over the hunt breakfast, taken at daybreak in his hospitable hall, with the jolliest air imaginable. Quito a party were staying in the house, and many eame from distant points of the borough; not only masculine huntsman graced the hoard, but. many a dainty drawing-room queen was there, transformed into a dashing Diana, in business-like habits and hunting raps, their beauty shining out all tin; fairer for the severity of their eostumes. Morrion Dae was splendid today in her Lincoln green, h?avily frogged across the elegant bust in military style, with her darkling glances and rich, red, laughing mouth: Auberon was by her MUtf, near ryuu <tuu iuuiaik, a- u^uai, and Irankly ainusod with all her brilliant > allies. I.oveday was noi present: she w< uld join the company as they passed the i'avilion; she always went to the hunt under Squire i reey's special care, and skimmed along bv his side like a spiritualized shadow wherever he led. Aecringtou was not present either: ho had never intruded into Doriniant again: but lie was the theme of conversation now. and every one seemed to have something interesting to sav about him. Me was determined to he a power in Salford. said the gent emen: there was no doubt about it. lie meant to stand for the next election, lie was >otting evorytiiing in trim; and with his wea tii and push, his popularitv and lim sse.

They thought he only wanted a wife now t > be perfect -?a lady wife, who would play the hostess successfully, and us- her iiifluehee on the right side a ways?that was what Colonel Accrington niu>t g t at once And then some one sent a whisper round, which blanched .Mrs Crecy's check when it came to her, and she emphatically contradicted it "I 'II.

"A wife, perhaps, yet not that wife," returned Mrs. Crecy, anxiously. M'eaeh-hlo-som an<* Sc'den h/iir. and "l every nymph a Loveday!" whisiered the gossip, with great /est: for it was generally guessed that Mrs t'rccj and Mrs. Dellamere would have been ..

A few moments afterward the party I broke up and scattered to their horses. Mrs. Crecy beckoned her son to follow j her to her own room, and there, in a 1 few hasty yet succinct words, she irrade j him comprehend the character of Aci crington, and Lovedav's peril, should | he really bo trying to win her. "I felt that he was base!" cried An| heron; "at the touch of his hand the . blood in my \eins seemed to shrink backward, and in the glanoo of his eye, I however bland or smiling, an inscrutable >piri? lurked behind the smile. Yet i ...... i.:, " iJjVMt'Ud) lliw r? niiii Mrs. Crecy was silent: fain would she ' have read hi- mind about that sweet airl whom she had always pictured as ! her future daughter: but she would not ask a confidence which was not volunteered; and Auheron pondered silently. I -lie will b> at the hunt to-day. I hear," said lie, at la-t. "I shall do my best for little I.oxe lay, mother. How is it thai Lovednv can care for him? is there no saving instinct, then, for pure women?" "It must be a mistake." faltered Mrs. i Crecy, with quivering lips: "save her. Auberou, o!i, my boy, save her! yon : can." lie started, and Hashed a keen glance at her: the suggestion seemed to com upon him like an e ectrie shock. Soon a faint, very sweet smile crept about the corners of bis mouth, and his eyes I shone. *1 wonder if I really can?" said lie, dreamily: "I would, like to know." i A long btiglo call sminded the summons for the start Mother and son kissed each other tenderly, and lie bounded down ?tairs I and out among the animated company. What a line sight it was! Iteaiitilul equestriennes and their cav' aliers, mounted on fiery horses, tiuui! derod along the avenue, followed by the dogs and their keepers: it was early yet: splendid hunting weather, for a faint south wind blew and the sky was cloudy, ! and as they streamed over the clean ' shaven champaign lawn outside the ' Dorimantgates, satisfaction was visible on every face. The Pavilion reached, here camo Loveday on her jet-biaek barb, which was ; passaging all down the drive with wicked 1 grace, without, in the least disconcerting J the accomplished little horsewoman on her back; and Mrs. Dellamere in her pony phaeton, with her companion by her side, as usual.

The whole assembly came to a halt on a pontic eminence, with the carriages on the road which wound round its base: and hero they waited in the silence of ' death while the hounds were thrown into cover. The hunters sat like equestrian statues, only their eyes glancing i with life, and listened breathlc-sly for the lirst ringing "\ iew-halloo" from the huntsman's horn which would announce ; "the find.

Having drawn from her the reason of her lagging behind, and condoled ! with her on her disappointment, he promised to stay by her until she had ' loiujfl more desirable company, j -Or until yon find your golden-tressod I Ariadne," retorted she, laughing and ' blushing stiDcrbly. for she entirely be llCVt'O 111 Wliui 111; II at I a.-^t-i ,, lute Anberon's preference for another I than l.ovcday?for herself, she trnm! hlinsiy hoped.

The insinuation dropped like honey into Merrion's hurt: she had wondered somewhat shamedly that Auberon had allowed her to fall behind alone. That was the explanation, the good, I blundering olddwh ?s had in some manner contrived it that l.ovcday .should be placed in Auberou's special charge, so i that Aevringlon should be forced to as1 sociate with herself. Her rt^11'' heart ' swelled with wrath, siie would not be j thrown at any man's feet $o! She was quite ready to respond in the j right spirit when Aeerlngton entreated j her to give him her aid in winning l.oveI day for his companion for a short time j The idea of thrusting herself upon Au! beron was humiliating, still she might ! manage to liberate l.oveday without. ! quite that, and at the worst, surely it would not he nninaidenly to claim his ' attention for a little while, for Loveday's I sake, and knowing that Aubcron lov-'d j herself. < She almost felt repaid for her consent. , when Acrrir.gton took her hand with a iiniri.rihit tiressure. looking down at her with a deep clow in hiseyes i hut showed how moved ho was. | The pair halted on the creator a rot lcy i rideo which commande I u view of both ; va leys. j The swift llijjht of the fox had thinned olT the throne until only tho crack huntj ers w re in sight, spreading far and I wide, each followinc as best he might j the course of the hounds, which stream'd along the crass-land in full view of the 1 came, "like the white trail of a plum \" ; in hunting parlane .

He answered suitably, handing Loveday his glass meanwhile to view the ! lield: and Merrion drew Auberon's attention entirely to herself, by dropi ping h"r whip with an ejaculaI tion of dismay. Auberon was on the ground immediately; he handed her the eweled toy. and was about to mount again when she said, capriciously: "Lon't l.?t us follow the hunt any fur! tlicr, since Loveday does not rare lor it; ! I should like to tread on this velvety 1 moss with ray own feet?your shoulder, please. " An.l lightly leaning one hand on Auberon she lit like a bird on the ground j by his side, and with a word of warning to her horse, ran to the moss-bank '" O ""><1 l/n.-lt. it in rrstasi/Vt. Aubcron glanced round to see how Aeerington was employed. Aeerington was employed in pouring a swift whisper info J.ove lay's ear She tumo I her bright face, all its gleo and joy a nee blanched out of it. and , looked earnestly at Aubcron. with a sorrowful widening of the eyes; then slio tightened her reins, and next moment she and Aeerington were riding away side bv side, Aeerington throwing bark i the carelessly spoken words, "A fair exchange is no robbery. Mr < rcey: you have monopolized my lady and i shall carry off yours " i ! ovcday!" called Aubcron, amazedly. i She turned in her saddle, fo.cing an ; arch smile. "I shall he at home Ion* before you i will!" said she, and van shed among the trees. "Come, dear MDs Ra<\ let me lift you to your saddle," said Aubcron, looking strangely white and linn; "wo must overtake them at once, for Mrs Deliamere placed Loveday under my oseort, and i uare not lose sight of her " I Mcrrion sprang up, laughing and re! hellions "Follow her. if yon please?T shall n t I venture to mar CoL A.cri.igion"; plan*," she cried. "I shall not leave you?and yet I must I follow Loveday; it was a special trust," said the youth, insistently. "You will ! not prevent me from acting loyally, I am sure " Incredulous still, she detained him yet a moment longer. "I do not prevent you, Mr. Crecy?do as you please; only do not ask me to intrude upon two people who have just shaken us off," she said, haughtily. His countenance filled with grief and | reproach. "Merrion, dear," said he, "to spare m? fnturo remorse, will you come with me and spoil that tete-a-tete?" She saw that he was in earnest, and in burning humiliation she dropped all nnnnQit.inn. ; j Accrington had deceived her then; ' Auberon did iovc Lovedav, and the ini trusion was when Merrion sought to j cotne between them! I ' ! will do whatever yon please." said t j she, in low, shamed tones; "I did not understand." Lightly ho swung hor to the saddle, each touch of his hand sending a thrill through her, while she bitterly strove against the feeling; and not quite throe minutes after Accrington and Loveday had started, tuey, too, were on their track. Accrington had won the game by a ruse, simple and unscrupulous. The moment he ?aw Auberon engaged with Merrion he had whispered, with a meanI ing smile, to Loveuay: "Evidently tlieie i is a quarrel to be made up here Shall we be indulgent to true lovers?" |TO BE CONTINUED. | Kansa-.
