Ho was dark and handsome, with piercing eyes, 1s forehead sligh(ly bald, and a jet black moustache, twisted juantily away from a small nervous mouth; and his dress was tasteful and faglt- less in the last degree. He had takon off hie light straw hat to greet me, and now stood apparently awaiting some mork definate ex- planation on my part. j "I beg your pardon, sir," | stam- mered, rather confused; "I--I hope I am' not trespassing on private grounds ?"' " Why, sir, you are undeniably on returned the stranger, smiling; "but I think we won't call it by any such harsh name as trespassing. You are stay- ing in the neighborhood ?" "I am staying at the Lake House for the summer," I explained,: and I suppose my morning walk has led me farther than I at firat intended." 'You are about six miles from the house. sir," returned my companien courteously. . "And, judging from youf oscupation when I cathe down tw the gate, you would not object to crossing back by water ?" I laughed and acknowledged the fact, "To tell you the truth, sir, I was Just thinking bow cool and pleasant a row would® be. In fact if the boat had not been fastened, I should sequences, and boldly adventured 'the experiment." "I think we can overcome that objection," said the stranger, quietly turning to an old ruined tres whose gnarled trunk overhung the trans- parent tide, and drawing a key from its hollow depths. *" Suppose wa get up an nppetite for breakfast to- gether? I. am not inexperieneed myself, and I suppose yon under- stand the art of propelling on the water ?" + "Just give me an opportunity,and see it I don't indicate my education in.aquatic matters," I said, in high good humor springing into the . | fairy-like little shell, followed by my new acquaintance. "Really, sir, this is an. unexpected treat. I scarcely know how to thank you suffici ontly for your courtesy." "Then do not attempt" eaid the gentleman, inclining his head with high~bred politenes which impressed me more and more in is favor. "I assnre you the grat- ifieation is entircly mutual. Pa to the right a little; we shall get entangled in yonder floating she et of waterlilies if we are not careful. -- Upon my word, this is a most per- fect morning for the water." Tt was indeod! Across the diamond glitter of the lake the Mr Solan splendars of an August sun- se wore just beginning to be re- flected ; and in the distance a range of misty mountain peaks leaned against the horizon like far-off sentinels, almost losing their outline in the.blue radiance of the cloudless heavens. > | «1.wishI was an artist!" broke almost involuntarily from my lips.

Now I was reaping the consequences of 'my own folly and recklesness, His dark, piercing eyes roved re- stlessly from object to object. Sud- denly they rested on my appalled countenance. "You don't believe what I am say- ing?" The rememberance of what I had oiten read and heard about the ex- pediency--nay,tho positive necessity --that existed for.ndulging mon- omaniacs to the top of their bent, in whatever whim might possess their minds, occurred to me, and I hastened to reply, " Of course I be- lieve it! Why shouldn't I?" "Ah, why shouldent yow indeed ? But people are so sceptical now a- days. Now, when Victor Emmanuel was staying at my house and Pope Pius came down by way of the Mad- iterancan--Take care; where you are going 7" I had thought to take advantage of tho new path into which his troubled mind had wandered, to divert our course a little moro shore- ward ; but his cunning, roving eye was upon me in an instant. "It is getting very hot here," 1 stammered. "I thought, perbaps, we should find it cooler on shore." " Ah.hah!" he hissed, putting his face so close to mine as to glare up into my eyes,under the very shadow of my wide brimmed hat: "you're a traitor and a hypocrite, like all the rest of 'em! Bat I'm prepared for you; See!" And with 8 barst of laughter, so dissonant that the very tide seemed to tremble and quiver, he flashed a long sharp knife in the air, deserib~ ing a circle of gleaming light round his head," My blood seemed turned to ite in. my. veins as it dazzled across my vision, "Pat ap that knife, your Royal Highnes,' I said, counterfeiting an off-hand ease that I by no means felt. « Where's the use of it between friends? Let's talk about the Queen." I was the more anxions to. secure his. attention, as 1 saw 'moving | fou on the shore, scarcely half ile away from' n4; the flutter of a corohief, and ther ce of the figures.

Wo might hide among the woods, only; if she should tarn into a squirrel, and jamp up and down among the trees--she does sometimes." * , Well, then, we shail borrow a gun and dispose of her." I said, still pulling desperately towards the shore, while the perspiration, cold | aod clam as midnight dow, streamed down my temples. " What are you in such a hurry for?" demanded my companion morosely. 'Hold hard a little, can't you?' I checked my exertions. Evident- ly be wasin no humor to be trifled with. "No hurry at all," I said as calm- ly as possible; "only you see the old witch is following Jou up pretty closely, and" "We are too near the shore," he interrupted, abruptly. We were within a few rods of the clustering bushes which 1 knew con- tained "help. Oh, heaven, could I but reach the friendly shelter. How like a mass of lead my heart sank in my bosom, as Isaw him snateh up the oars and strike out once more in a contrary direction, But as he turned his head away, 1 caught up tho sheathed knife, and flang it hurling upon the shore. ¢ What's that?" he demanded turning quickly round. "IVs your witch," I said as un, concernedly as I could. "Don't you think we ought to go ashore and see what's become of her," His eyes moved restlessly tlong tho green bank, "I don't know; what do you think 2" ', Why, she is your anny, No doubt it was her who spread the re- port of her death. You ought to ad- dress hér in a conciliatory manner ; and it you could once bring her to terms, what would prevent youn once more assuming your proper station once more in England ?" "That's true. Hero, head her in towards the land. I wonder I never thought of that before." Poor, fever brained lunatic, Even in the consciousness of my awn mort- al peril, my heart ached for the crazy flights of his sick fancy. We. were close to the friendly land ; the long silver-green tresses of the willows almost touched my throbbing forehead, when my strange companion started to his feet, with a yoll that aroused all the echoes floating over tho peaceful lake. "Traitor--spy ! double-dyed vill- ian! You bave boen deceiving me. Your hirelings lurk in yonder bush. es. Bat it isin vain /--the Royalty of England shall never fall a prey to base artifices like these." He sprang towards me like an in- infuriated tiger. At the same in- alive with hurrying figures; and with a last impulse 1 caught up the rope that lay coiled in the bottom ot the boat, with one end affixed to an iron book, I threw it desperately shoreward. I could see a tall form planging waist deep into the water to grasp it; and then the clinging arms of my terrible. companion were twreathed around me: and I knew no more.
