The visit to the Egyptian Pavilion was the real obiect of interest tn-day, but the Bodenbachâ€"Schwerendorf pany did not go straight there. Five o’clock was the hour which had been fixed for the admit- tance, and in spite of the delay which had taken place before starting, it was only four 11 uw. They all knew the chief points of the exhibition by best t : but Arnold did. notâ€" Arnold was a stranger to all; and fo his benefit there was first 'a turn made is the Rotunda and the princi- pal departments. They again admired the frail beauties of Bohemian glass, and the irregular, half-clouded transparencies of the Venetian ; and after that, Arnold had to be persuaded to give up his con- templations of the agricultural and other machinesâ€"areas panting, working man- sters, all steel and iron, which Halka found tiresome, which Hermine thought too noisy, and which Rents had always declared to be oppressively ugly; only to-day their ugliness was less oppressive than usual, with Arnold to point out and expatiste upon their merits and interests. It had gat past the half-hour now, and the scalp ure department was gone through in all haste. There was not time ‘ ~7- ‘L-m . ngqnino glance at the through in all haste.

Halka is not exaggeratedly national in her opinions, but she has been taught from her childhood to take every stroke of Matejko’s as the gospel of art; and now there is another inducement to de- fend himâ€"the pleasure of contradicting “I don’t care to look at it at all," Reata had just said, turning away impatiently from the consideration of Stefan Batory. “It is a collection of ill-grown men, with .: n‘lnln looks. and few words where there the Polish 1 Pole revere than “i suppose when you tomed to invest every beauty, the reality of t pleasing,” Halka contin * - - .

It was near five o’clock when they step- ped out into the open air. The day had ‘ been warm and dull, with rare gleams of sunshine; the air heavy and unstirred, laden with dust. One of those rare gleams of sunshine has shone out while Reata was standing on the hotel staircase beside Arnold ; another shone out now as . the party walked along: the broad, smooth gravel roads, trodden daily by thousands of feet, and bordered by stretches of green lawn and bright-coloured flower- pots. Even though the air was hot and dusty, it was refreshing to breathe, coming from the covered buildings. Who does not know the bodily fatigue, the mental gid- diness, the general emptiness of brain, which the contemplation of such thou- sands of things and the collection of such thousands of ideas are certain to engen- der 2 Even if you do not- apply your mind to the study of anything in particu- lar, and are content to walk along looking at things as they come, the quick succes- sion, the variety. the endless confusion of change, will have a mildly stupefying efl‘ct on your intellect. The Bodenbach natty felt all mildly stupefied as they walked along the gravel roads. They had not much more than an hour in the exhibition to-day; but they had been flitting about from dusty air to breathe, and only bright- colonred flower-beds to look at.

She did not look so shocked this time, but there was something like a strain of nervous anxiety in her eyes. She did not look in the humor for tolerating any flippant remarks. Their guide walked on and opened the doors. Hallie fell back now, and let the others pass onâ€"Resta in front.
