Now began to be developed the strong mind which her gentle, quiet manner covered. N o complaint passed her lips; resolutely, though quietly, she conquered the se- dentary habits which she loved, yet she made her health a care, because she had experienced the effects of too great de- votion to work. While she earnestly prayed for strength and guidance in her responsible life as teacher, she was draw- ing in herself new powers for the task before her. Every lesson to a pupil be- came, in the thigh character in which she regarded it, a lesson for herself in patience and care. All the higher at- tributes of her mind were developing under the pressure of sorrow and respon- 3 sibility , and if her face had been lovely in her timid, trusting girlhood, it was now invested with the higher, nobler l beauty of a. working intellect adorned ‘ by a true Christian spirit I ‘ Two regrets were ever presentâ€"she longed for her adopted mother’s voice, and she wished most earnestly that Horace Arnold could know why he was sent from her. She writhed under the idea. of his regarding her in the light of a coquette. yet she knew that she had be- trayed her love, believing as she did in his.

Horace Arnold has been here since I have, and until to-dav I have allowed him to suppose you mar- ried and in the home of a more fortun- ate suitor. To-day I told him the whole truth, forI know all the noble conduct of the child I cast from me.

You will learn how I wronged him by supposâ€" ‘ ing that your birth could alter his love. May God bless you both! Edith for- give your Mourns. Dead ! dead without one car°ess, one spoken word to break the pang. Edith forgot even Horace in her first burst of sorrow. All the old love, the tender memories which seperation had been powerless to dull, rushed over her heart, and she sobbed with uncontrollable emo- tion. The heavy grief of unalterable sorrow was not new to her ; death had taken her dear ones before, but there was no love-tie like this broken. It ' was the only real mother of her life, the mother who had filled babyhood, child- hood, girlhood with sweetest proofs of‘ holy affection, and the thought that she had not been near her at the last, to soothe the dying hours, made Edith’s grief still heavier. An hour passed, and then she was roused from her abandonment to sorrow by the servant, “The gentleman, Miss Campbell, can ye lee him the night ’Iâ€"him as brought the letter. ” .

Although; he grumbled, Dr. Grey did not againl press the point ; he found a quiet place 1 for his frategee, and then exerted him-j self to procure scholars in German and music. Many of Mrs. Lawrence’s old friends, who knew of Edith’s careful in- struction, awere‘gfaid toavail-themselvesi of this opportunity to secure her ser- vices for their children, and she s00n had a full class of scholars for each day. Her aunt was easily persuaded to take the housekeeping cares of the little house which the doctor had rented in Edith’s name, though Edie insisted upon also securing the services of a strong Irish girl. It was hard for Edith to resist his kind invitation, but she felt that there ghe was _in a. false position. She owed drink. ” And with this parting injuncâ€" tion the old doctor walked off.

Her heavy black dress, which she wore for her aunt, her red eyes, and sad face were all appropriate greetings to his news, though she thought not of that. Horace was impatiently waiting for her 5 but there was no rapturous greet- ing, no love-talk ; with tender yet re- spectful sympathy, he went forward to meet her. “My poor Edith!” This was his greeting. v The sad heart bounded at his voice, and Edith knew that rest for her sorrow. ful life was to be found in his care. Softly they spoke of the dead. 7" “ She knew all, dearest,” said Horace; “ and knowing it she said that you were right. That, had you acted as she wished, it would have destroyed her love, for she would always have feared that interest might win you from her.

Mrs. V1 alpole con- trived to have her Miss Wiedeman’s Suit Against Captain Walgoleâ€"The Plaintiff States Her 3.56 in the Queen's Bench. LONDON, November 29.â€"-Society re- ceived a distressing shock yesterday by the announcement that the heir pre- sumptive to the Earl of Oxford had been sued for breach of promise. The case Lwas called in the Queen’s Bench division. lThe plaintiff. Kiss Vallery \Viedemann, brought fruit against Captain Robert Horace Walpole for breach of promise and for libel, claiming £10,000 damages. Not many months ago Captain Walpole and Kiss Corbin, In American lady, were quietly married in Paris, and from subse- quent events it is presumed the affair was Conducted privately owing to Miss Wiede- mann’s avowed intention of making trouble for the groom. The principla witness was Miss Wiedemann herself. She is a. bright, fresh-looking blonde. the daughter of a North German pastor and a person of education and refined manners. Although subjected to sharp interroga- tions she told her story in an impressive manner. She testified that Captain \Val- role met her in 1882, at the Hotel D’Angleterre, Constantinople, where she was employed as a governess to the pro- prietor's daughters. He met ner at din- ner one night and ‘ _ Tried by affliction, and unscathed by the ordeal, Edith Arnold is a noble 1woman, generous in impulse, kind in heart, noble in soul, a. woman who, when sorrow and trouble met her, [2’]! ‘rnot before the storm, but rose to meet 1it, not defiantly, but with a. pure Chris- Mianvheactas her shieli,. ‘ A PUT OUT OF THE HOTEL. l Capt. Walpole then sent a. friend, Capt. l Darlington, to take her to Paris, where he promised to meet her. At Paris Capt. Walpole told her to meet him in Berlin, but when she arrived there she found that he had no intention of meet- ing her, She then went to her brother- in-Iuw’s in Germany, where her child was born in June, 1883. Witness admitted by implication that when she heard of Captain Walpole’s intended marriage she sent to Miss Corbin the following note: "I shall meet you one day, and you will hear my curse to the end of your exist- ence. This for marrying} man you have became ill .in Paris, she left her “ dear adopted child, Edith Campbell, ” that others might know she died loving her daughter still. She well knew that Edith’s noble soul would be pained by any legacy of money, so she only left her the picture and the letter 1 have quoted. no right to marry.” Captain Walpole will deny the promise, and plead that if it were made it was in Turkey, where no action is maintainable. He claims that the Signet ring was stolen, and the letter which he wrote to his agent accusing her of theft, is the basis for an action for libel, which Captain Walpole will plead as privileged.
