Ixrcli, which had come in with blaster l lag and rearing winds, had gvne out I mcckly as a lamb. and had given place to April, with its varying face of smiles and tears. The pretzy ornamental grounds round firsthurpe were donning their bright sprizg ‘ "e ; Lamb:wnld I'atk was showing ' .ory of leader greenl and strong ur us y Jung life ; :be' hedgerow: vu-rc rich with the fairest flowers of the early spring-«the primrosesi in their ls'v'lbll luxuruuco, the dc: p blue violets, so sweet and fragrant, the pure White snowdrop in its delicate loveliness. l Spring had Come ; the fairest season I of the year reigned over the earth. l The nneulsys' wonucr was over. The) trial of l'rancis Grevillu the younger, which hui been so eagerly looked for- ward to and to much talked of, had never taken place. 'l he necer. ry formalities had been iuifiilcd, and ho had come forth: from the prism a free man, bearing an unstained nameâ€"for surely his suffertiln’g had removed the stain which his folly cas: upon itvâ€"able to look every man in the face. under no obligation of conceal- ment. That he had suffered, and suf- fered greatly, was only too evident; his youth was gone never by return. He He was young in years still ; yet. he moved and spoke with a gravity of a man who had reach-.d middle life, and there were many silver threads in his fair hair, and many a dctp lino gravcn on the once- smooth brow. But, though he was free, and once more able to lulu: his place among his fellow- men, Frsnk's tn ubloa were no: yobovcr ; there was still much suffering and. anxiety ._ The frcodum which gave new life to his sister and seemed to bring her back from the very brink of the uravo had stricken his father to the earth. ’I‘nclsuddcu revulsion of feeling, the over- whelming joy at. the innocence of tho son 'wlio had been the dearest thing in the world to him, and against. whom he had been so bitterly incensed, had. been more than his strength, already tried to the ut. termost by the stern self-repression he had exercised for so long, could bear. Ila had borne the news, the glad tidings of his son’s innocence, well and calmly ; but, when Frank had cumo to him with outstretched hands and tears in tho smil- ing blue eyes, he had fallen at his feet in a long and deadly swoon, from which he recovered only to find himself an aged and broken man, with halting speech and trembling palsicd bands, who cuuld not. bear out of his sight. for ten minutes tlns son who had “been lost. and was found.” And Frank never left. his side, while Christine, growing rapidly stronger inlier joy, although perhaps she would never be a very robust woman, shared the duties of the sick-room, happier from the tender look um. lroken loving Words of the father who had alwsvs been so stern and cold than she had defined it possible to be. Thus it happened that April was wall on its way before Frank Greville was able to see his friends and reesive their con- grutulzitious ; and the first visit. be paid was to Stephen Duunt at East- hurpo. fie had driven over from Ashford ; but he left: the dog-curt: at the gates, for he _ wished to walk through the . where in the wintry night he and Sid- ’ nay grounds "llzvl met and parted In Muir was and woe ;" and his heart throbbed fast a: the recol- lection of that interview and of all which had taken place since then. Spring was 'in his heart now as well as in the clear sweet air; but on that night there had reigned everywhere the chill and darkness of winter, and In his heart had been the blackmss of despair. - Mrs. Dsunt. was out, the servant said, and Mr. Dsunt had not yet re- turned from Ashford ; but he would be in 'very shortly, if Mr. Grcville would wait. ’ “Yes, I will wait," Frank said; and _ the man ushered him into the drawing- room, and went. out, closing the door after him. At first Frank thought the room was 'empty ; but, as he glanced round it, re- mombvring how he had stood outside in this horny falling rain and looked in at Sidney on a past wollrcmembered night, a lady rose from a seat. near the window, where she had been painting, and came forward rather shyly~ a tall girl with kind ‘gray eyes and a mass of beautiful fair hair, who held cut her hand with a charming Welcoming smile. “Mr. Gruville,” she said, ins low sweet voice, “i am so glad to see you. You do not. know nm ; but I have heard so much 1 am Agnes Burtonâ€"Stephen Dsunt's cousin." “And to which therefore I ought. to feel grateful." Frank said, with a smile which had almost rcguined its old bright- ness. “1 am glml to be at home to welcome you," she answered simply. I was glad to bear that Mr. Grovlllc continues to improve." “ch, ho is much butltr, while. the im- prnvcnwnt in my sister is little short of marvellous. She was so very ill that Dr. Arnold tells me he had little or no hope of horrccovery ; now she seems al- most. wull again." “The cause of hcrilluess is removed," Agnes slid. with her sweet gentle smile. “Ah, hero is Stephen 3" It. was the first time the two young men had met since the night of the terrible event which had brought such misery into both lives ; and, as their hands closed in a firm pressure, Agnes slipped away and left' them together. For a moment they did not. speak, but stood in silence, look ing into each uthcr's faces, muking thei changeâ€"great in Stephen, so muchi greater in Frankâ€"~wleich had taken place during tho twu years that had Stephen broke the silence first. “'l‘lnnk llesvcn for this I" he said, in a voice shaken with emotion. “Can you ever forgtvc me, Dsuuf.

"Yellow 1" turned away with r. shrug of shoulders. Bu: Frank saw the keen pain that lie tried to disguise under the atfectation of carelessness, and, though i: required an efl'o:t to pursue the subject, he madca step forwardand put his hand on Stephen's arm. "Duunt." he ssid earnestly, “agave me; but. l cannot. help speaking to you. My own happiness cannot be Complete without yours ; and, when I remember that: so much of your pain has been caused by the mad suspicion which Sidney over- heard me put into words, I feel that, no [matter what good things life can give me, I cannot be happy, I cannot be a; peace until I see you and Sidney happy.” “My dear Frank, are we not so I “'0 do not quarrel ; we get. on admirsbly," 'tc-phuu broke in csrclessly. “Years ago, when Sidney promised to be my wife,” Frank Grcvillo went on, not lieedfng the interruption, “she did. so under a misunderstanding. I came to her, mad with misery of. Slbyl Neil’s"â€" cven now his voice shock a! he spoke her nameâ€"“engagement, and swearing Voll- geuncc against the man for whom she had sacrificed me. Sidney-you know well, Daunt, on what. terms of brotherly and sistcrly affection we were--tried to con. sole mc, sudssscrtcd Sibyl's right to ba- troih herself to whom she would. And I, in my dospsir,turned to her for safety, asl thought. lfsho would be my wife, I said 1 Would forego vengeance ; they should be left alone. And she promised, not knowing, and thinking that she was swing your annoyancc~pcrhaps worse.” ‘ In the short ‘silcnce which followed there came before Stephen Dsuut's eyes the pretty old-fashioned drawing-room of the Gray House, and two fair girls stand- ing by the piano, Dolly's face full of dis- may and pain, Sidney’sfprcud and calm, changing into startled terror as she stood listening to the words which told her that Sisyl Neil was to bo Squire Rutledgc's wife. And there sounded again in his ears Dolly's words, as the brother and sister drove home together, that. Sidney lo.ked as if she had been foreâ€"d into something against her will, and his own -iucrcdulous questionâ€"“IE it. is not. for love of Frank that. she has engaged her» self to him, why should she have done so i” Ah, why indeed? Could it have been for lllB reason Frank gave him now i “I was madly selfiah," Frank went on, in a voice full of regret. “I had not. thought. of hrl‘ psin, poor child I I wanted '. er to save me from myself, and she was so gentle and brave. She tried so hard to be to me all that the Would have been had she really loved no that. she grow very dear to me. I did not. love her as I loved Sibyl ; but the love might have come in time but for She Is deadâ€"I would not speak of her in unch- now ; but. I was as wax in her hands, and I loved her madly. While Sidney, poor child, was trying to win me to a higher, better life. shc~Sibylâ€"-was dragging me down to the lowest depths of ignominy and disgrace. I concealed the hatred I felt; against her husband, I crossed his threshold, I broku bread in his house, I shook his hand," Frank went on hoarsoly â€"â€"“I, who hated him, who mcditatcd tho bascst. treachery against him l Danni, looking back at that time, it. seems to me that it would have been a lighter crime, a sin less black, to have shot him dead in open enmity than to have feigned friend- ship with such a base motive, to have taken his hand and eaten his salt, and meditatcd such black treachery I” . There was silence in the pretty room for a few moments. Stephen's. face, turned towards the fire, was grave and pitiful, and his dark eyes had softened strangely as he listened. . “You saved her," Frank continued ; “but. for you, we should have fled that night ; and, though we have suffered much since then, we were saved from a great. sin. If I had not been a coward, much of my own suffering would have been avoided; and she, poor girl, suffered from a sin which had been unintentional, and which could have met. with but a light pumltyâ€"if any-vhad she not tied, even 38 I did. It was my cowardice, my madness which was the cause of all the misery. Dsuut, how (run you bear the sight. of me ‘I" he went on passionately. “Do you know that not only did I think you guilty of murder, but I believed you capable of marrying Sidney to interpnsc a barrier between yourself and the punish- ment due to your crime? Can you ever forgive me I" “We will say no more about if," Stephen said gently ; “let the past. rcs'. ; we shall never forge: i: perhaps, and the lessons i: has taught us all need never be forgotten." “Nay they have been too dcenly im- pressed on every lzcsrz,“ Frank returned huskily. ‘ They have ith us sadder and wiser mac and women.

Mr. Graviile's illness had put off this celebration much later than had been in: tended. Dr. Arnold had feared the ex~ citemcnf. and agitation for'him, and it had been generally felt: that the address must be postponed until the old lawyer. .was able to be present and able to share the rejoicings and congratulations ; thus the time of roses had come before a day could be fixed for Frank to receive the deputa~ tion, audit. was the anniversary of Sid- noy Dsunt’s wedding-day. . Although it was the time of roses, they were not blooming in such profusion as they had been a your before. The weather was cold still, and summer had not made such an early appearance as she had promistd when spring came so smil~ ingly and tripping so gaily along. The cold winds still prevailed, and the sun had not. much warmth as yet. and fires were sfiil more than acceptable, almost. neces- sary. 7 W .; When Sidney entered her dressing- room to plopare for dinner, she found that Bessie had selected her wedding- (lross for that: evening's festivity, and-it, lay upon the sofa. in all its satin. sheen and the filmy loveliness of lace with which it. was trimmed. Sidney's lips quiveer as her eyes rested upon it ; but we forced a little laugh ss she turned to Bessie. V "I'm afraid it won'lt fit, the said carelessly. ‘ I am now." “Mason has been altering it, ma’am," Bessie answered. “1 thought you would like to wear is to-nlgbt, my dear," 'she added tenderly, her kindly old hears aching for her young mistress as she noticed theyeaming desolate eyes, the sad quivering mouth. N u allusion to the anniversary had bcéii Bessie,“ so- thin made by Stephen, and Agnes Burton, the: only visitor at Essthorpe then, had :‘mf; remembered it. Mr. Duunt and Lady Eva had driven over in the afternoon with pretty gifts and kind congratulations ; l‘ut Stephen had been at the cloth-mills then, and he had said nothing on his re- turn, not ever; remarking the presents winch Sitlnoy was far too shy to bring to his notice. All day long the young wife had felt depressed and miserable, with even more than usual sadness. Only . a year married, she thought pitifully, and yet irrevocably parted I Bound to each other for life, and yet as much sepsrated as if an iron wall kept. them asunder! Could any misery equal their misery I Sidney wondered. “ Surely no sorrow could be like unto theirsorrowl And yet, if Stephen had only taken hcr'in his arms and whispered fondly that he loved her and that. he blessed that day, would the whole ions have held a happier woman? Very ’ wan and white and yet. very beautiful was the face her mirror reflected back that even- ing. Slio lingered a little while in her her task, hoping almost. agslnst hop: that. Stephen would come to her even now, late in the day as i; was ; but, instead; Mason came with :1. message that Mr. Dumb and Miss Burton ' were 'wnit- ing, sud that the carriage’ ‘ was rount . i ' ' And Sidney went down-stairs in 112'; 1021 v white cloak, and Stephen gave her his arm with the grave courtesy which1 al- ways characterised his manner to her now; and Agnes followed In the raft blue draperies which brought out. the fair- ness of her skinand the bright hue of hbr hair in such perfection ; and they drove away in the summer evening, Agnes and Stephen chatting gaily and carelessly, Sidnoy leaning back in her corner, silent, her pale loveliness chill andcold and pure as untroddcn snow. > And yet, pale and cold and nnmove'd as she seemed, a very passion of pain was rushing her heart sick and her limbs faint and nervolcss. She was thinkingâ€"with a woman's ingenious solf-torturcâ€"that, if she had died in that illness from which she had rallied with such reluctance, in a little time Agnes might. have taken her place as Stephen's wife, and given him the happiness he~hsd hitherto missde Agnes, who was so gentle and pure and render and calm, who would make ,him, such a perfect wife if only she-Sidneyâ€" did not exist. to shut him out from. all happiness. As it was, she hopcd and be- lieved that.

Yulmti: Stock‘nnd their Food. The experiments of stes, Ssnborn, Miles, Armsby, Boussingault, and other prominent authorities have shown beyond dispute or question that the older the an'mul-becomes the more food it takes to fatten or keep ijrfat. It is general‘y con- ceded by experienced feeders that it; re- quires from eighteen or nineteen pounds of. good upland hay per day to keep alive and fi'oin.slirlnkihg sheaf of 1,000 pounds, “and thetan animal of 2,000 pounds will consume from thirty-eight. to forty pounds per day to supply the heat and-«waste of animal tissues constantly gulug‘on. . . ' ~ -,.Thc fact-is patents, then, that the long- erthe animal is kept and fed, the greater the amount of food consumed to simply supply the waste in the system. For the some reason wo~ cannot make pork ss cheaply from hogs twenty months old as from those at ten months. A hog that: cm be fattcned on two .and one-half pounds of cornmeal per day for ten months should weigh as least three hun- dréd pounds, but. if kept. sen months longer the ratio of increase in pounds of pork will not be one-third of the increase in the amount of corn consumed ; or, in other words, 7C0 pounds of carn meal will produle in ten mont is (300 days) 300 pounds of , ' rims pork. but. it will take nearly, if no quite, 1,600 pounds of corn- meal to prcdl-cc 600 pounds of pork in twenty mont. . ' 'llhc same principle holds good wi’Zu beef. The animal that will. turn the scale at 1,400 or 1,500 pounds in histtliird year, can be fed and sold at; a greater profit than one at 4 years old, and is u better animal in every way ; besides, the feeder's risk is less in tho percuntuge of loss from death or accident. 4‘ 'All meat. animals, whether cattle, sheep, '02: bags, 'give. the best rctums for food consumed during the first year of growth, and thereafter the gain and profit. is lessened the longer the animal is kept; until often at a loss.
