"Oh, did you think I could stay at home, knowing that you were alone, and suffering here? Oh, no; as soon as the news of the verdict reached us, I got ready, and ordered the carriage, and drove here. I have been here an hour,. I knew you were at the prison, and I should have gone thither, but I thought you would prefer being alone with him this evening; so I waited for you here." _ "Bless you, Rose! but the duke, did he approve of your coming** And the next moment she was clasped in the arms of Rose. Poor Rose was no philosopher, and all she could do now was to clasp her friend to her loving bosom, and sob forth: "Oh, my dear, dear Laura! my dear, dear Laura! my heart bleeds for you! Oh, may the Lord comfort you, Jaura, for no human being can, I know." She crept slowlz and feebly up the dark staircase to the landing upon which her room was situated. She saw a tenâ€" der, subdued light shining from the snly-open door, and her heart, broken wn by sorrow, sunk mwith a strange foreboding of more misery, it more co. come to one whose cup was already over. flowing. She timidly pushed open the door and entered. Leaving Newgate, Laura threaded the narrow, 3nrk and filthy courts and aiâ€" leys of that miserable quarter, crowded, as they were, with abandoned wretches of bo:{ sexes, and reached, at last, her own gloomy lodging house, at the top of Skinner street, within sight of St, Sepuichre‘s Church. On the opposite side of the street sho saw a close carriage, with a coachman, whom she thought she recognized. But, too much absorbed by her own anguish, she gave no thought to the circumstance, but entered at once her dreary lodging, where no kind friend ever welcomed her, where she was aliâ€" ways alone in her grief, as was the Diâ€" vine Master in Gethsemane. ® EeE e e T CVA AnZ FLVY,: DbFh{AQBLDQQ@@Q@@O@L§¢L0 They remained mutually comforting each other for some fifteen minutes longer, and then the turnkey came his rounds, and informed Mrs. Cassinove that she must withdraw for the night. And Laura took leave of her husband, leaving him alone in his cell, and returnâ€" ed to her own Josolate lodgings. "I will bear all the reat well, until all is over, and thenâ€"follow you!" said Laura. _"My own brave wife! you ordeal well!" he said. When left alone again, the unhappy ::hremainod seated side by side, their clasped together in silence. _ No word had rned their lips since the geading of the death warrant. Although by what had gone before, they were preâ€" pared for what was to come, yet the reading of the doom seeemd to have stunned them into stillness. Cassinove was the first to whake off the spell ond prisaner, upon his supplication, and, with a deferentiol bow to Laura, he caltâ€" ed his satellites, and retreated from the m. on Monday rext." And unfolding the warrant, amid the dead silence of the assembled group, he pead it aloud to the prisoner. Cassinove heard it with composure, and at its close bowed, still in silence.

"Sweet, loving Rose, ask your own womanâ€"heart if I could bear to enter a home of luxury while my husband sufâ€" fers in the condemned cell ? _ No. Rose, no: the very desolation and wretchedâ€" ness of my abode gives me a sort of comfort." said Laura, mournfully.

At six o‘clock Rose softly left her seat, extinguished the night lamp and openâ€" ed the windows, to air the room. And Laura still slept the deep, deep sleep of exhaustion, the effect of many nights‘ vigilance. ’ By the time Rose had arranged her toilet, set the room in order, and reâ€" sumed her seat by the bedside, Laura awoke with a start looked arourd with a bewildered air and exclaimed: "Was it a dream."

While she spoke, Laura raised herself up from the sofa, and gazed earnestly at the speaker, and when Rose had finished her own narrative, Laura said: Rose commenced and related the whole history of her broken marriage, as she had narrated it to the duke. _ "Yes, dearest," replied her friend, hopâ€" ing to learn some new facts that might, even at this late hour, save the guiltless.

"Do you suspect, then, who did the deed ?" ; "I more than suspect it. I know it in my heart of hearts.

Thelittle children of Gheel have learned bow to handle these curious visitors; they play with them fearlessly and walk and taik with them. Sometimes the patient may be ceen tending the baby.

Every step aroound "him he fears is some wild animal, and every sound of water sounds like a deep [ and rolling river, and if he steps from ) one place to another, every little hollow | he thinks is a deep precipice. All about him there is nothing but fear, fear, and ‘ nothing but danger, danger, danzer; and hbe stops and stands still in the night, if he be a wise man, and waits for the comâ€" ing sunrise. Full of dangers are the forests of the world, full of dangers are the moral forests, and serious is the position â€" of everyone in these forests unless the Sun of God doth rise and show him the way 'that shall lead him out into the fielos, and illuminate the dark around him. The time is coming when you, and 1, and all of us must stand revealed in the Light of the risen Sun of God. and then every sin we have done which is unreâ€" pented of, and unforgiven, will stand out black against the Light; and every service we have done for Him, will shine out and gleam for ever. ‘The time is coming _ when you cannot hide in the caves any more, and when your sins canâ€" not be hid any more. _ And so many a man seeking to guide his Christian lifeâ€"trying to save _ his soulâ€"will steer on some of these false lights in the seas of his experience, and, in the nightâ€"time of his soul, he steers on these false lights, and into the rocks and fire of the voleano. 1 This is a wonderful illustration, beâ€" cause it applies to every side of our character and of our exerience. . A man 1 1 remember a sea captain telling me how he once steered into the secthing foam and the dangerous rocks on the ‘ coast of Stromboli; and disabled his vesâ€" ; sel, and he told me how many other vesâ€" sels had been lost before in the same way. He thought it was a lighthouse; but the volcano of Stromboli put out a column of light that looked like a star at first in the distance, and as he drew nearer to it it looked like a large lightâ€" house. The smoke and clonds hid the lower portion of the column of fire, and he could only see the top of it, and he drew so near to it before he perceived that it was not the lighthouse above Naples that it was too late to save the ship. He said that often before others had been lost, having been misled by the light of that voleano. The Sun of God, rising on a darkened world, reveals to it just where it stands; and no man or woman understands just where they are with relation to God or with relation to the world until the Sun of God arises and Christ appears, when in the light of His rays they can survey their surroundings and tell what are the dtuger, and what are the hopes. When that sun shone on this desert earth and these black rocks and restless ocean the first time, ah! What a magnâ€" ficent change! The contrast between the darkness before and the glorious light now ; coming through the steam., the sunâ€" shine throws about a stream of godlike brightness. "The sun shall arise"â€"the most magâ€" nificent picture known to human eyes. The sun shall appearâ€"how gorgeous is ieverytln'n‘ connected with his appearâ€" ng! ‘ A Promise of Sunshine. (By the Rev .Russell H. Cornwall, D.D.) "The Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings."â€"Mal, ov., 2. "The Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings." 1t is one of the most sublime sentences to be found in literature. It is too magnifiâ€" cent for a man without the genius of a Chrysostom, or the eloquence of a Deâ€" mosthenes, or without the farâ€"reaching insight of a Shakespeare, or without the spiritual devotion of a Paul, to present it as it should be presented.
