A EICH MAN'S WHIMS.
BV THE AT;TH0R OF  *' TLHV\ AND   FRANCIS."
[concluded.] The houra elipl away at the column ol Shaks- peare, and 0 servant informed liini thai n was lime to dress for dinner, which business did noi take many minutea to accomplish, as he was one of Ihose rare per.sons whose drees is never om of order. " Dual never sucks to him." aa homely Mr3. May used lo lell her fnends-a aaying which .Mre, Gn-cn was fond of repealing to her iriends whenever hia name waa mentioned. Now for on extraordinary scene, thought Ar¬ thur, as the servant howod him down to the din- ine room. I sfia" ^^-^ ^ magnificent service of plaie and a royal dinner. But he waa disap¬ pointed in one resperi—for ihough ihe dinner- fcCrvice was splendid, yet the dinner itself was simple beyond all imagination. The lable was set (or iour persona, Mrs. Herman waa ai ihe head, her son at the foot, and Arthur and Grace Gordon opposite to each other. Fricasseed chick¬ ens 3(id hailed ham constituted t^e meat part o\ tlie dinner; but there was a number of dishes of delicaie vegetables, delicately cooked, and a variety of fine fruit ior dcsseri.
There waa neither wine nor ale, bui pitchers of ice waler in abundance—and all seemed to eat with an appetite. Madam Herman helped liberally, but talked sparingly. Mr. Herman ut¬ tered not a syllable- Grace Gordon was in high spirits, and laughingly asked a few questions in German, such as she had learned in the morn¬ ing. Arihur answered her gravely, according to contract—and thus the firi?t dinner passed.
As the library was a great novelty, Arthur be- took himself lo ibe Shakspeare column again, and there he remained until five o'clock, when he was summoned to thc study. He found Mad¬ am Herman seated in her rocking-chair, and Grace Gordon at the table, with a smile on her face of du'iioiis meaning, and her handkerchief more ilian once raised to hide it.
If the lesson was a dry matter of fact busi ness, he was fully rewarded by the quickness of llie young lady's apprehension ; she perfectly comprehended what Arthur had taught her in ihe morning, and he feared her progress would be 80 rapid ihat he should not remain in this en¬ chanted castle very long. He turned round to Madam Herman, when she rung the little bell tor iho sarvani to how him out, and observed thai Miss Gordon had made great progress al¬ ready. Tlie old hdy made no reply, but drew up with quiet dignity, and there was scorn on lier fcaiuroa. Miss Gordon blushed and held down her liead, pitying the young man's embar¬ rassment, and again, from the half open door, the same clear laugh was heard.
Arthur stood for a moment irres^oluie ; he had half a mind'to quit ilie house at once; for the disagreeable manners of the old lady, the cold formality oi lierson, and ihe laugh, which seem¬ ed as if in mockery, were more than a counter¬ poise to ilie great benefits and pleasures of his situation. But the young lady was unexception¬ able in her manners; she was not to be sure familiar, or even social, as is always the case be tween teacher and ,':cholar ; but there was noth ing oirenaive—and it was a pleasure to look at her beautiful lace. He stood irresolute, how¬ ever, and probably would have made his parting bow had not his eye glanced at the lollowing words, evidently written that moment—'* never take offrticc v^here none is /nemitS*
A eraieful bow and a deep blush convinced llie young lady thai she should not loi.e her leach er. Ariliur was bowed oui of the room as be¬ fore, and jumping in thc chaise which the ser¬ vant said was wailing ior him, he rode down to the lodge to see his friejids, -who were (o meet hini ihere ui sii: o'clock. The iour boys, Mr. Grteii, and Garry, were all clustering in the room wailing lor him, and liJs heart warmed with Joy on receiving their honest, hearty greet- in^'. Garry asked if he might tell .Mrs. Green nnd Manila lo cume :he iic.\t day, and tlic boys declared thnt they would be there also. There waa a delicacy about these unsophisticaied poo pie wliich prevented them from asking ques¬ tions, ns soon as tbcy heard thc terms of his con¬ tract at Herman Hull. Arthur told ihem, how ever, that he was quite happy, and lhat hia pu [>il would noi want hia assistance more tlian a month, ns she learned very quickly.
The servant presented himself at the door, and Arthur found it was lime to bid his honest iriends adieu, promising to see tbem once a week at lhat hour—and so they reluciahily parted- On his return to ihe hou«e, he was shownto a small ruom adjoining ihe library, and on ihe lable was the tea equipage. Thc nun asked if he would like 10 go to his chamber beture taking ten ; and Arthur, supposiiiij iliis part of the etiquette, tbl- lowed him up stairs, where, as usual, the door was opened for him, and, with a low bow, ihe eervani retired. Alter arranging his hair and drtsB, heaat ui ihe casement enjoying the beau¬ tiful prospect, and regretting that it \vould, like a dream, so soon fade away—for he was quiie certain thai the lady would master ihe moat dif¬ ficult part nf the language in less than six weeks. Howsirangely are weconsiiuiied, ond how lil¬ lle do we kiiuw of what ihe mind is capable. In a few hours Arihur was a changed man. The petty anxieties ol a business life, a(I originating in the necessity ol providing ibr daily wantS; were cast aside, never lo be resumed again—for new feelings, n*^w hopes filled his whole soul.— He never beiore understood the greaine.'jg, the IfOodnesB of God ; he never comprehended Uis power over creation, andj that all ilunga, all that was beautiful, was ihe work of his hand.— it was in this niagniflcfflit solitude that hia heart opened to nil this glory ; and It seemed ne if a film had fallen from his.'^ight. Men cannot know God iit cities !
.Vew facilities have been given to me. thought he, on descending to the tea-room- I am in communion with a holy and chaste spirit, which Avill, I know, sustain me ; and the iuture, so dreaded, I now look forward to wi:h a ceriainiy ol succes.^. My heart is made up of love and charily—and every human being shall have a claim upon iiiy tenderness. Even the weak and infirm of purpose I shall endeavor to comfort and advi.-^t ; and as to this beautiful girl, so far, BO intiniitly niy superior—why may I not love Jier ns a dear sisier, love her in secret and—
lie was by ihia lime in the room, and there, at the head of the mble, sat ihc beautiful girl, whohad just passed through h;fl mind in such near relationship. Wholly unprepared for her presence—for he had forgotten that ahe was to preside n, the breakfast nnd iea-tah!e-he start¬ ed back n, ihc iL-.r that the servant had made a mistake.
Grace Gordon l.ylfro.e. smiled, and bid him take a seat. Instead of the silence and reserve of the dmner-lablc, Arthur found himself in an¬ imated conversaiion, and he was pouring out his feelings, when he heard the .same clear, loud laugh as before.
Relieved from resfraint, for the absence oi Madam Herman left him at liberty, he arose as if to see who it was that had thrown an air of ridicule on his conversation. Grace Gordon put her finger to her lip and pointed to his chair, and
readjfluemly; there it no fear of your ^^^^^^ dull scholar. It would be my interest to find you obtuse of intellect, for (o live and breathe inthis atmosphere is a happiness I never er- pected to enjoy-the library itself is full compen¬ sation for more of my time than I so freely give
you."
Here followed another laugh, and as there waa now a perfect understanding betweea the younir lady and himself, he resolved to take no notice of it. He arose, however, and shut the Tioor, but he might have spared himself the trouble for it was opened in an inataut.
Arthur smiled good humoredly, and nbserved that the merry gentleman waa no doubt a privil¬ eged person, one who had the control over the deatinies of the house, or such an eccentric way of amusing himself would not be allowed,
Mies Gordon colored, and was aboul to make a reply, when the laugh commenced again and continued so long that ihere was an end of fur¬ ther conversation ; the lady rose with much em- barrasment, said she hoped to meet him there at breakfast, and ihen departed ihrough the door whence ihe laugh came.
.A.rihur found it amounted to this—ha must do one of three things—to ask no questioiia, enter into no conversation with Miss Gordon or any of the family—request to takehiameats by him- sell—or quit the house. It was very irksome, certainly, to sit in perfect silence when there was one person, at least, who had conversation¬ al powers ; it was likewise irksome to see peo¬ ple moving aboul him all day, to know that they all had communion.with one another, and that be alone should stalk about the house and grounds in utter silence, save two hours when he was engaged in leaching. He walked out to consider of it in the open air, and after an hour's ramble ihrough groves and walks, breaihing de¬ licious perfumes, he returned with the determi¬ nation lo bear with the eccentric humor of the family and remain with them until winter set in. It certainly was very disheartening to meei no pleasant voice on his entering the house, and to go to his solitary chamber wilhout a solitary good night from a single soul; for small bene¬ fits, he had reason to be grateful now, for here all thc comtorta and luxuries of life were in abundance, and there were two great pleasures added to all this—the library and the beautiful face and pleasing manners of his pupil.
fie took a li^g walk, and returned more ele¬ vated, more grateful and humble than ever. It was a perfect fairy-land oil around, and why should the foolish inmates of the houae disturb its tranquility. He strove to keep tho thought uppermost (hat it was to these very eccentric people he owed his happiness, so he was shown to the breakfast room with feelings disposed lo submit to what, under other circumstances, would be so difficult to bear.
Miss Gordon was already there, and to Ar¬ thur's surprise and confusion, ahe held out her hand with a kind good-morning and a pleasant smile.- The conversation was trifling—he kept a rein over his thoughts and let none but such aa were mere commonplace go forth lo excite the merriment of the person in the next room, for Arthur picsumed he was there, as the door was still half open. Just at the parti.ig he made the unluck) observation, that as he had laken suffi¬ cient exercise for the morning he should go again to the library, for there he should find friends—friends who had always cheered and consoled him-
He might, to ho sure, ha\e omitted the speech, simple us it was, yei how could one so entirely alone avoid feeling his loneliness—it was no cause of mirth to ethers, certainly, and yet the man in the next room laughed merrily. " What a magnificent mind it was that plan¬ ned Ihis library," said Arthur, pointing to it, ns the Ijdy and ha left the room.
She amilcd faintly, however, and as they sep¬ arated, replied ihat " it was planned—as well as the house and grounds—by the loughter in the next room."
" Alas!" thought Arthur, when alone in the library, " he is undoubtedly insane ; he is, per haps. Miss Gordon's father, or some near rela¬ tive, and being harmless, is allowed lo amuse himself in any way he tikes. I see it all now. and his laughter shall annoy me no longer; but where have I heard it before.
All at once the truth flashed upon him. In Mr. <jraham's office, where he studied law for a year, he often saw a gentleman by ihe name of Herman, who certainly reaemliled the one who was the owner of this estate. He was i great talker and a great laugher—the very clear bell like, musical laugh lie had heard so fre¬ quently.
The present Mr. Herman was grave, taciturn, frivolous and formal, with gray hair and broken leelh; whereas the one he formerly knew waa much younger looking, with dark hair and per¬ fect teeth. Mr. Graham took great pleasure his .society, for he waa fiill of anecdotes and had been a traveller ; Arihur, also, was much amused with his gay and easy manners, and it was quite a regret to them all when Mr- Herman left the oily. Arthur had often inquired after him, but Mr. Graham heard nothing, from or of him and so he faded away from their memory. It seemed, therefore, almost a certainty that he waa ill some way connected with the family, o" the Hermans where Arthur now was.
Day after day Arthur went ihrough thc same routine, the young lady making a great progress in German, and he making great progress in love, lor could it be expected that he was to sit in earnest conversation for two hours every day and be at the same lable with her at all limea without losing his heart ? Whether Grace Gor¬ don loved her in return, was anoiher matter ; no one could judge if she did, for her attentions were only those of a lady to a gentleman, and even the haughty old lady. Madam Herman could find no fault.
What puzzled Arihur more than any thing else was this, Mr. Herman was never seen ex¬ cepting at dinner. Where he went or what he did was a mystery; he certainly never waa in ihe library, for there Arihur went at irregular limes, so that he would of course have been seen. Ha never was about the grounds, and Arthur had no slated limes of walking or riding there; he might, however, take an airing with Madam Herman, for she weni out regularly, and he sometimes met the carriage. He never questioned the servants, for his humor and pride prevented that, and Grace Gordon never alluded to her family stall. Yei it must be presumed that the young man had curiosity, and if he had not, there %vere his friends at ihe inn ; they were dying to know what waa going on within that wide extent of high stone wall. The old schoolmaster of Berrydale, who had read some¬ thing of China in a geography book, called it the " Celestial City,'' and ardently  longed  to
enter the gates to take a peep there. He did make one attempt, but the porter at the lodge knew belter what his place was than to let a stranger enter.
Arihur had now been there two monlhs, and had never left the place; his friends paid their evening visit about once a week, for there had been a wedding lo occupy them, and Martha and Garry were now man and wife. The win ter was at hand, and not a word was said of thc period when his instructions were to cease Grace Gordon and he wore on the most friendly fooling imaginable, and could now converse very well in German, but though her progress was attonishing, yet Madam Herman never opened her lips to wonder or praise.
Deep, deeper, in love did poor Arthur get eve ry day—a hopeless love ho knew it to be, and
ihis at once subdued the anger which  was fast yet lie would not have given up the tormenting
P!'=°'';fe for the world; he wished and dreamed his wiahea over and over ngain, that Grace Gor- on was as poor as himself, for he thought there ^¦as n probability Uien of winning her afTections. 1-or any thing he knew to ,hc contrary, she migAt be poor, but how was he lo find il out. unless the embargo on words was taken ofT.- At every lurn he met a domestic, but he knew them-not even by name; all his wants were supplied in the most exact and liberal manner but he asked no questions, and their respect for him prevented any approach toward familiarity. He had walked and ridden over every part of the estate with the exception of an inclosure which he was given to understand, in the very beginning, was appropriated to the use of the domestics, and Into which vishors never entered, A road from (he next market-town reached this inclosure, and eyetf thing wanted for the family was brought here in carls and wagons. A dense hedge of cedar, eight feet in hight, which ex tended to the right and left, prevented any one from seeing, what waa passing on the other aide, and Arthur thought that thia was all ia good taste and eood keeping with the general plan.— It was impossible to guess at the extent of this inclosure, for the hedge, or fence made a num¬ ber of circuiiouB bendi and thus rendered it de¬ ceptive lo tho eye.
rising, and determined him to wait for a more suitable opportunity to gratify hia curiosity.
¦' You are good lempercd I hear, Mr. Haza¬ rellc, and good temper is a gift which few pos- seee, Perhaps, Iiowever, you have not been se¬ verely lesied. Many people pass for good tem¬ pered who are irritable and irascible when thwar¬ ted."
" Il dfpeiids* aliogether upon the person who provokes me," said Arthur. " A woman, for instance, 18 always sure of forbearance, be sho ever so diapoHed to find fault; and a man walks untouched, though he might insult me, if Icon- Bidered hnn as an inferior- So, you perceive, I am good lempcred wiih a .salification, and it de¬ pends upon the characier .four friend in am¬ bush whether I an, to take olVence at that clear, ringing laugh.

" In less than a iwelvemonih! Yea, in leu ihtn three month* you will be able to apeak and
One morning he strolled out as usual, and took the path that led lo the cedar hedge; for the ground there was well beaten and very pleasant to the feet. He walked leisurely, his mind occupied with the one object ofthe deep¬ est interest to him—Grace Gordon. Starting from his day dream he looked at his watch, and found it time lo return, that he mighi prepare for breakfast. He quickened his pace, therefore, and endeavored to retrace his stepa; but he made a mistake in one of the turnings and went backward instead of forward. The error waa not discovered unlil he reached an immense iron bound gale, which al the* moment waa slowly opened by some one on (he other side. He wailed until the man who was opening the gate, and whose voice he heard, should make his ap. pearance, for he really was at a loss to know which way to proceed. What was his surprise 10 find lhat the gate opener was Mr. Herman himself, and that followfng him closely was a iroop ol young people, all in high spirits, and apparentiyjon ihe most familiar terms with bim. A second glance assured him that it was not the Mr. Herman of yesterday, gray-headed and for- mal, bill the Mr- Herman he formerly knew, with thd same merry, clear, ringing laugh which he recollected ao well.
The gentleman ."itarted on seeing Arihur, but appeared not to knosv him, he raised his hat, however, and then turned to his young com¬ panions, who were as much amazed aa himself at the rencontre. He could see at a glance that Grace Gordon was not among them, but they evidently must be her friends. They alt walked bri-ikly away, and as he turned to look at them, he saw that Mr. Herman was tunning at full speed, and the wliofe party after hira. He stood at Ihe open gate and for the first time saw (he inside of the hedge, and to his astonishment found that he was in the rear ofthe mansion, lor there, about a quarter of a mile off, was the back court, and several of the domestics whom he recognized, passing to and fro.
One of the men who stood near the gate, came forward as Arthur was about entering, and said that " Miss Gordon was waiting breakfast for him," and *' that the chaise ahould be brought round in an instant."
"This is very curious,"   thought Arthur " why not enter the house this way ?   Here I shall not have to walk more than two or three hundred yards, whereas it will bo half an hour's ride to reach the iront."
However, the chase was brought to the gate, and after riding fast for twenty or thirty minutes, Arthur was brought to the front of the house, and as quickly aa possible he made his toilet, ,and was ushered lo the breokfast lable.
You are welcome back," said Miss Gordon, blushing deeply, "I thought you had left us never to return. We sent scouts alter you in every direction, fearine lhat you hid lost your way, but Madani Herman thought that would be impossible."
But it was possible," said Arthur, " for I did lose my way, and I hope you will pardon my having kept breakfast wailing so long; I do not deserve such kindness.'*
Oh, as to that," said Grace  Gordon, there is no one injured but yourself, for I breakfasted I hour."
Arthur was on the point of speaking of the troop of young people coming out of the gate, but he stopped, for this was infringing on the rules—rules which he never forgot one instant. Miss Gordon seeing him about to speak, waited for a moment, and then proceeded to pour out his tea. " And you really lost your way, Mr, Ilazar- le I ll is no w^onder when you recollect how many windings and turnings there are. If! were to follow the cedar hedge, I should un doubicdly be puzzled, for that doubles and wi.ids aboul in every direction. Did you not meet any one in your walk '
Yes, several; I blundered along till I reach¬ ed a gate—
"Indeed!" said Miss Gordon; "and was the gate open ?"
" No; the gate was opened when 1 reached it. I saw one of the domestics, or rather he saw me, and it was from him I learned tfiat the. breakfast waa ^vamng. Miss Gordon,—I never was placed in so awkward a position in my life. I have submitted to conditions, which, to one of my nature, are very painful and mortifying,— for you must yourself despise me for submitiing to them."
'• You have acted honorably, Mr. Hazarelle," said she, with much feeling, "and an honorable man must always be respected. Yon may be assured that I deeply feel for the mortificaiion and privations you endure, and would lessen ihem if I could. One day or other—very soon, perhaps—-you will learn why I have been thus bound down lo rules which mtisi at leasi appear strange, if not ridiculous. You will fi id us grateful for the service you have rendered me, and 1 hope lo be under obligations to you for several nionths to come,"
"Grateful!—Miss Cordon,—it is for me lo bpeak of graiiiude, fur iliere lias been os mnch happiness crowded in the few months of my re¬ sidence here aa would spread over the whole of an ordinary life. I shall leave ray heart, and all that life is wonh in this beautiful retreat, and lhat I may not be utterly miserable by incurring your hate, it is better tbr me to go as soon aa possible."
" Oh ! you must not talk of leaving us yei," said she, pretending not to understand him, " for how shall I get on with the German, I am not so well grounded in the language, as lhat I can study by myself."
" Yuu can improve without assistance, I as¬ sure you, and you will have opportunities this winter of meeting with many who speak the language. Aa lo me, though I shall be near you when you are inthe city, ypi the difference in our prospects will prevent our meeting,—I shall be nothing there but an humble clerk ; or, per haps, an humble teacher."
Tears came in the voung lady's eyes, but she did not dare to trust her voice, and Arihur pro¬ ceeded.
" There is not a more solitary being in the world than my.self, for I do not know that 1 have a relaiion, and yei there is no one thai so ardently desires the love and sympathy of kin¬ dred. With a heart thus alive to lender emo- lions, judge, iherefore, dear Miss Gordon, how impossible it is not to admire the beauty, talent, and excellence of the lovely being who honors me with her confidence. I have awakened from this bright dream, and must go while I have the power."
Miss Gordon arose, but trembled so much that she was compelled to sit again. Arihur approached to bid her farewell, for he now found that it was impossible to remain near her after making this confession, but seeing her distress he drew back, and said, in a low voice, ho would write a few lines of ihanks before he left the house. Just as he was leaving the room he had a glimpse of a gentleman, who appeared to come from ihe library, and it occurred lo him that it must be Mr. Herman—he was loo much agitat¬ ed, however, to dwell on bo iriffling a circum¬ stance, yet ho could not help wondering which of the two gentleman it was. When in his chamber, he wrote to Mr. Herman thanking him for all his kindness and attention to his pleasures and comforts, and regretting that it was not in his power to remain longer. He gave his re¬ spectful conipUments to Madam Herman and Miss Gordon, and said that he should send for his eifecis in ihe course ofthe afternoon.
Thc servant took thc letter to Mr. Herman who by note requested Arthur to meet him ii tbe library before he departed. After writing a few lines to Misa Gordon, our hero left his pleasant chamber,—and no one can imagine with what regret,—and entered the library. Mr. Herman, as usual, waved his hand to the chair. *' You aro leaving uaMr. Hazarelle," said he, " I presume you think Miss Gordon is suffi ciently advanced in her studies to get on without a teacher. Is lhat your reason for going at this lime V
*' Miss Gordon has made great progress," said Arthur, " and if she should meet wilh a few clever Germans now and ihcn, she would soon be master of the language."
" Do you leave us beottuae you (hink she has no furiher need of your assistance, or have you other reasons; we have no wish to part wiih you for a monih or Iwo, if convenient for you lo remain."
¦' Mr. Herman," said Arihur, rising, his face crmiBoned all over, ' ¦ have you never been young —do you forget that I am but twenty-four, and that my heart is susceptible as if I were heir to all lU estate i Do you think a possible to be in the society of so lovely n woman as Mies Gordon without becoming attached to her? assure you. sir, lhat this waa unforeseen by me Had I been aware of her eiC9llenciea,;I.,hquld not have placed myself in a aiiuation which I know is to mako me miaerable lor life.   You aak
I tell (hem to you frankly—
for thy - reasons, good morning."
In the midst of all (he agitation which (hia avowal called forth, Arthur could not avoid ob¬ serving the effect U had on Mr. Herman. He rose slowly, his eyes were opened lo the utmost and his hands .outspread, but he spoke not; in fact, i)ie boldness and honesty of the speech took him completely by surprise—and Arihur had walked out of the houso before he recover¬ ed hia recollection.
As Arihur had not made known hia intention to the servjnifl, for the whole was (he impulse ofthe moment, no carriage was in wailing ; but before he had proceeded a mile, the chaise and ponies overtook him, and on eniering ii, he saw lis carpet bag, iri<nk, and dressing-case in the bottom of the carriage. As he was now releas¬ ed from all obligations, he asked the coachman whether Mr. Herman had a brother. The man aaid he had not. He then inquired whether the gentleman who came ihrough the gate where he stood, in the morning, was any relation of the family ? The answer was, he did not know. As it was evident that fellow had instruction? not to be communicative, Arthur forebore further questions—and (hey rode on in rapid pace.
Our hero had at that momeni vague thoughts of rising in the world, penniless though lie wa3« having an indistinct hope, too, that Mias Gordon would listen to his suit, if he had independence to ofl'er her. As to the old lady or her formal son, he did not irouble himaelf about their ap- probaiiou ; in fact, he knew that as far es their approval went, (he thing was entirely out oi the question. He had, however, given Mr, Herman a good fright aboul ii, and this amused poor Ar¬ thur in the midst of hia painful feelings—and he wondered what Madam Herman would say Vhen told of it.
But they did not reach tlip porter's lodge, and yet they drove fast, and nearly half an hour had elapsed. On looking round—for he had been so absorbed in thought as not to ob¬ serve the road they were goirig—^he saw thai ihey were riding in an easterly direction, and presently they entered a ihick woods, flo tqld the coachman that he was taking him' ihe wrong road, and that he must turn back; but the man said thai he would come out right in a few min¬ utes ; thnt he thought it would be a pleasant ride this way, os Mr. Hazarelle had never been here before.
After leaving the woods they got on a com¬ mon wagon road and then making a circuit of half a mile they reached the lodge; and the porter stood there ready to assist in taking out the luggage. As soon as it was placed on the floor of the room, the coachman jumped on the scat, and was out of sight in a momeni.
Step this way," aaid the porter ; "please to go down these steps, and (hen walk to thc end of lhat long passage, and you will see a white door, through which you are to pass; you will there meet with a Iriend who will conduct you safely to Berrydale,"
Why not go out at this door, my friend- this is the one leading to the stage road—I pre¬ fer going this way."
So should I, too," said the porter, "if I thought there was any harm in going a pleasant- er round. You will not repent going to (he end of the long passage. You have only to descend six steps."
'* Often as I have been here," said Arthur, " I never saw that dark passage before."
*' For a very good reason," said the porter ; '* the door was always locked, and Mr. Herman had the key. He came here this morning and opened it himself. You perceive that this door is locked and the windows are grated-so that, in truth there is no way of getting out but through that narrow passage."
"Well, if lhat is ihe case," said Arthur, good humoredly, •* I must go lhat way. This is, however, the oddest of all things ; but is nf a piece with the rest," continued he to himse
-respect for Grace Gurden preventing him from speaking lightly of ilie family. He descended and walked through tho long passage which was only lighted by a small window, or loop hole givmg just light enough to see the while door, a flight of seven or eight steps leading (o it. On opening it, he entered a handaomoly -furnished parlor, with a table in the centre, on which was some fine fruit. He did not slop, however to taste it, but went to a folding door opposite, and to hia surprise, found himself in a lady's boudoir —tbr there, on the table, were books, needle work and embroidery. What can alt this mean, thought Arihur; surely the Herman fumily are a little deranged- Pride and wealih have caus¬ ed him 10 act thus strangely. Heaven grant that Grace Gordon has none i>l their blood in her veiiis-
As this thought pssged through his mind, he heard ihe clear gay laugh of his old acquaint¬ ance. For he now waa convinced that it was the Mr. Herman he formerly knew, and whom he had seen lhat morning. He sprang lo a door which stood partly open, and there, to his sur¬ prise, lie saw, not Mr. Herman, bui Godfricd Darg, and hia two doga. Barker and   Growler.
" Ah ! voii are hero, my good friend," said Arihur, shaking hands wiih him, " You gave us the slip in an odd way ; and I have to thank you tor a very valuable present."
" Did you spit in old Barnes' lace and give him a kick, as I requested '/"
•¦No," said Arthur, laughing, "I had no chance ; for instead of becoming teacher lo a score or two of village children, I had the honor of-"
" Yes, yes, I knnw it ; Herman told me all, and told me of your tine speech this morning." " Why, who are you, ihat you can be so lam¬ iliar  wilh 60 reserved a gentleman as Mr. Her¬ man /"
" Who am I ? Why plain Godfried Darg.— But you are a pretty fellow, lo fall in love wilh a lady so entirely out of your reach. Did I noi give you a dressing case, inw hich lay the minia¬ ture of the pretty liitle girl that is lo be your wife. Did not my note lell you that you were not to open thc box tilt Barker and Growler gave you leave ?"
"And have I not obeyed your direciiona ?" said Arihur, smiling; " if you will take the trouble lo go into ihe porter's lodge, you will see the case, and find that the box is untouched. Confound all this mystery—what does it mean ? Wliy om I singled out (or su;;h necromancy : and why am I here in this singular place, when my wish is to be wilh my quiet, honest friends of Berrydale f
And so you took me at my word, anJ never opened the little box ?" " I had two very good reasons for noi doing it the first was that you requested me not to do it until I consulted yonr dogs, if you remember; and the second reason was, that the picture which you said the box contained, would be broken if I attempted it—at least so you said in your note."
" Did you ever read the letter which old Cros¬ bie told you to handle Barnes ?"
" No—it was destroyed, I heard ; but I shal' insist on hearing ihe contents the moment I see Mr. Crosbie."
'• You need not ask him ; here is the letter— I persuaded the old ass, Barnes, to give it lo ma; there, read tl."
" Upou my word," said Arthur, laughing ; I do not wonder at my dismissal; I am only sur¬ prised that I was not complimented with the kick which yourequealed me to bestow upon Barnes.''
"To Mr. Barnes—Sir : The bearer of this letter is a pert Jackanapes, and is full of conceit. He boasts lhat he will rule you, and all tho gentlemen in the neighborhood, with a rod of iron. He is going to make you pull down the old schoolhouse, and oblige you to dress the boys in uniform. In short, he promises he will turn everything upside down, and leave you and your four respectable colleagues out when it is lime to elect new trustees. He is so daring ihat you must be cautious how you acl; and above all things, do nut let him know (he contents ot this letter—just dismiss him coolly when he presents himse.'l. Yours, P. Herman."
Arthur read this curious epistle aloud, and started when he saw the signature. *' Surely," said ho. "Mr. Herman, the solemn, grave, up¬ right owner of Herman Hall, never could have written this totter; if he did, he is crazy."
" He did write it, and he is not crazy; but why do we sit talking nonsense here when so much is to be donfti?
" I do not know what your business may he, Mr. Darg, bm mine is lo get away from Her¬ man Hall as quickly as possible ; will you ac¬ company me to Berrydale V' • '' Not I; why there ia n great deal going on here ¦ for inatance, there are a number of pretty girls in tiie house, and there ia to be a wedding. Ah; you fltari, yet I ieil yoii'the truth; there U to be a wedding :here Uiis^ evening; instead of going to.BerrydaM you had.better remain .herq and get a pe'ep at th? bnde."
" If it is Miss Gordon—bnt that is iinposgi- blo."
"And why is it impossible?"   She is.very beautiful and very accomplished ; so ihat it is, the most likely ihing in the world.   Why, I j would lake hei wiihoui a cent to her portion, if i she would have me." . j
Arthur now.determined to find his way out of this mysterious place, and he was the inoreanx-. ious as it was barely possible thai what Dsrg I said respecting Miss Gordon might be., true, so | he walked to the door opposite and opened it, and : there lay his carpel bag, his trunk ami biadresj- ; ii'gcase—he lurned to express his surprise, but [ Darg had disappeared. I
" I will open the case now," said Arihur, j " and trust to luck not to break the miniature, j I am the sport of aome one, and I will put an j end to it."
So saying he opened tlie dressing-case, and was io the act of breaking open the littte steel box, when Gallon Springle stood before him.
''T have found you at last," said the man, "why how closely you have kepi yourself.— Did I not tell you to leave your address at ibe inn/"
Arthur was siooping over the case when Springle entered, and on rising up suddenly, he struck the man inthe face and crushed the spec tacles ; instead of letting Arthur assist him, he rushed into ihe adjoining room and shut the door.
" 1 do believe the fellow had a mask oh his face," ihoughi Arthur, "for I heard something crockle and crush as ray head struck him.— What brings such a man in a house of (his kind ; and if he has a mask why may not Darg be disguised also—and old Croabie ; it always struck me that his eyes were too deeply ae'i.— If I come in contart with them again I wiil soon find out."
He had scarcely touched the dressing-case to recommence his atiempt, when in came the identical Mr. Croabie.
*'Oh, you are there, my Iriend, are you!" said Arthur, seizing him ; " you gave me a tel¬ ler to Mr. Barnes, did you ; I shall take the lib¬ erty of tweaking your nose for ihe compliment." Off came the no.Rc, and off went Mr. Crasbie. and after him rushed Arihur; but being unac¬ quainted with the intricacies of the place he losi sight uf him, and on opening a door what was his surprise to find himself in a large parlor, surrounded by a number of persons, and Mr. Herman in the midai of iheni laughing merrily. *' Walk in, walk in, Mr. Hazarelle," said i\Ir. Herman ; " what, you found out thai old Crosbie had a poper nose, were you not anhamed to ex pose tha poor fellow.
But Arihur had no ear nor eye for him—in the centro of tlie group Blood Qrace Gordon, hold¬ ing in her hand the Hiile sieol box, which a ser¬ vant had lhat moment put there. By ber side was Abram Snow, looking just as quiet and grave as when in the counting house.
After shaking hand.s, Arthur lurned again lo Grace Gordon, for she seemed to be ihe most sane among them.
" Where are Barker and Growler," said she, laughing, Godfried Darg, call your dogs."
Mr. Herman whisiled. and bolh dogs came racing into the room.
Now, Arthur," said Mr. Herman, "here are Barker and Growler, set down the sleel box and let them open the case."
I have no desire to sec the face of any other lady than this one," said Arthur, approaching Miss Gordon and taking her hand. '* There is some mystery here which I cannot fathom, but ith her I am safe; whnievfir may be the plans and mnnu'uvres of others, here there is guile."
There," said Mr. Herman, " ilie doga have opened the box with one hite."
" Or rather, you pressed a spring and oppiied it," said Grace, laughing, "for I saw yon — Now let Mr. Hazerelle see the miniature."
" Come here, Arihur," said Mr. Herman, " sland behind Miss Gordon while she opens the box ; now look over her shoulder and see the lady you are to marry,"
Arihur looked over the shoulder of Grace, and he saw her lovely face reflected from the lit¬ tle mirror in her hand—'it was the most natural thing in the world tu kiss the cheek whicli was so near his lips, and there was a laugli form Via old tormentor being lieard above the rest,
" Well," paid Mr, Herman, " we did noi in¬ tend to have ihe ceremony performed (ill even¬ ing, but as Arthur has pulled ofi'old Croabie'u nose, and crushed Springle'a face, the plot can¬ not go on, so we will ask thc clergyman lo walk in—he i.s in the library—and put poor Arthur oui of suspense. Welcome Mr GrPoii, and you, too, good lady—ah, there comes Garry Lovell andjiis wife, and all (he boys. Ves, Arthur, I know how to appreciate the kindness of your friends, and see—there is good Airs. May, too —am 1 not a good manager."
Every thing was ready, and before Arthur could ask for an explanation of what had occur¬ red, lie stood up and became ihe hsppy husband of Grace Gordon.
" Now si,jpinlhi3 room," said Mr. Herman, alter the ceremony was over, " and let me tell you how all (his lias happened."
" Oh, never mind," said Arthur; " I care not how it has been brought about, for the sole wish of my heart has been gratified."
" Bui Grace Gordon has no ibriiine, and you have none' what are you going to do T'
" Arihur," said Grace, ".bear with him jusl now, he is jesting. Mr. Herman, did you not promise me that all mystery should cease the moment we are married."
" Well, well, I submit. And now be as hap¬ py as you both deserve—alter ibis I must acl like other folks, I presume, but I shall never en¬ joy myaelf thoroughly again."

Mr. Herman became his own master and heir to a large eatate al twenty one. He began lo buitd immediately, and the plan of ibe house and grounds was a type of his character. He wae full of plots and coDlrivancea, and there were, therefore, long passages under ground, and labyrinths at every turn. Arihur Hazarelle was hia intimate friend, and prevented him from ruining himself hy taking the mnnagemem of llie pecuniary aflaira, so that at the end of five years the houae and grounds were Ilnished lo suit the whimsical fancy ot the owner, and Iiis income waa not diminialied.
Unfortunately Mr. Hazerelle loved the same lady on whom his^frietid had placed iiisaflections —bill this did not disturb the i'riendship of the young men. Mr. Hazerelle waa accepted by the young lady, and Mr, Herman withdrew froni the world, determined never to marry. Inthe course of a few year?, Mr. Hnzerelle and his wife hoth died, leaving a son to the guardianship of Mr. Herman. Av;are of hisown faults, faults which he considered as having arisen from an early knowledge of the great wealth to which he waa heir, he determined upon bringing up hig Iriend's child in ignorance of wliat he intended to do for him.
He was one of the most active men in the world, and luckily his means were excellent, ao that he could execute all the romantic schemes he had planned. He took no one into hia coofi- dence, but through the means of his great wealth he had the power of accomplishing whatever he wished. Every thing which liappened to Ar¬ thur waa in conaequence of his agency. He had him educated in the most eccentric manner, giv¬ ing him an insight into law, medicine and com¬ merce. Every change in the young man's pros¬ pects which appeared llie result of accident, was owing to him,'and that he might know some thing of his real characlor, he frequently lived in the samo house with him.
When ho found ihat Arthur wns humble and good tempered, and that he siniggletf liard against his fate, he thought it waa high lime to make him amends. He was sure that prosperity would not und? tha work of yeara, ond he hod acied his part as a guardian well.
One of his gardeners lost his wife, leaving a child a few weeks old—il was a girl, ond her father did nut live long after the death of hia wife. Mr. Herman took the child, and deter¬ mined, li she had a good intellect, to educate her tor Arihur. She waa both intelligent and benuliful, BO lhat he waited wiih impatience for iho time when Arihur should be twemy-ibur, aa that, according to his notion, was the age ot dis* ere tion.
Orace Gordon Jiad been in Jits confidence from the time she could comprehend It, and from dwelling upon the plan so long had learned to hke it. Many and many a time had she seen Arthur when in the city with Mr. Herman, bnt she could not persuade him to brine Arthur to what might be conaidered his own home.
Mr. Herman never left off his love of mystery Qnd plotting, and when liltle children hung round him he would turn himself into a gipsy and tell their fortunes, which made ihem laugh; or he would Le a shipwrecked sailor, and tell a melancholy 8ipry,,and. make ihem weep; but &el4om; told ihem a sad tftle, for he loved to hear them lough, and was the greatest lau^hfti of them oil.
