His wratitude was boundless. e spoke French fluently, and as both ladies habitually conversed in that lanâ€" guage, there was nothing to check their friendly intercourse. All that he had to tell was soon told. He, St.eglhen. Lord Lynne, had succeeded to his title two years ago, on the death of his father. His mother was still alive, and in comrliance with herâ€"wish he was travelling for two years before he married and settled down. HMe had lingered in Spain, for he loved the country. While at Seâ€" ville his valet left him and returned to Enqlnn-l. He was fioing to visit a small town near, when he was thrown from his horse, and left almost dead at their castle gates. He was young and handsomeâ€"as were all the Lynnesâ€"and gifted with an easy grace n{ manner that charmed and fascin of manner tha ated those pro ladies. atranger had been residing for some weeks in that city, and that only two days before his valet left him and reâ€" turned to Engiand. Bome large boxes belonging to him were still at th* hotel, and these were forwarded to 'fmant.o. at Madame Monteleone‘s desire. concussion of the brain and a broken ankle. For many days the life of the young stranger trembled in the balâ€" ance. During that time he never reâ€" covered his senses, but evidently imegined himeelft in England. ThoK discovered that he was an Enfl:: nobleman, for in a small pocketbook was written his name, "Stephen, Lord Lynne." _ They know he must be werlthy, for he wore diamonds ot great value, and a purse full of gold was found in his pockets. Inquirâ€" ies were made at Seville, and then they discovered that the wounded The northern front of the castl+ faced the high road that led to the ancient and celebrated city of Sel ville. One evening a man, coming on business to one of the servants, found in the middle of the road a young zentleman, who had apparently been thrown from his horse, and llyy either stunzed" or dead on the bank, whil> the horse quietly grazed at some disâ€" tance from him. In a few minutes the inhabitants of the castle were aroused, and, by Madame Monte leone‘s command, the gentleman was carrled into one of the bedrooms, and a doctor sent for with all speed. The extent of his injuries was soon discovered; and they were a violent still known and honored, and there introduce her beautiful child to th» notice of the Spanish queen. While maturing these plans, a cireumstance happened which rendered them | all useless and unavailing. Destiny had other things in store for Bianca Monâ€" teleone. Madame Montelone has begun to form her plans. She had purposely lived in a most econorgical manner, and so she mun?d to save a sum of money. With this she intended to zo to Madrid, where her neme was So the y girl grew up in the olnely old cutfo. eut off from all the pleasures and amusements of her age, without any companion except her mother; living only in the glories of the rut and the hopes of the future, thinking of the present merely as a probation that must be endured. At the age of eighteen she was beautiâ€" ful as an houri, and .comglinhod to an extraordinary degree. She :Koke Italian, French and German with as much fluency as Spanish. She sang beautifully, and played with no mean skill. Well might her mother‘s heart glow with pride as she watched her, and her hopes rose higher day by not ?" aske lish I have been HIS LORDSHIP ROMANCEF h ghâ€"bred Spanish h crie vnne u must i never wounded for some only two H ind here to die; but I have been vex hpE(. my beloved, with you." She then laid the Uttle babe in her mother‘s arms, and Neither mother nor daughtor was desâ€" tined to see the stately English home. Quite auddenly Bianca was seized with a violent and dangerous illness. In vain the distracted _ husband summoned the most skilful physicians in the country. The fiat had gome forth; the short life of the beautiful Andalusian was ended. Hope, and love, and happiness, were all over; and she only nmf to hold her litâ€" tle d.nrt' in her arms and bless it. "Stephen," she said, looking into the loving face bent over her, "I inow now what lThe called me homeâ€"I came here to die; but I have been very hannvâ€" "I shou‘ld be lost in your English home," she said to the young lord; "and I do not think I could live away from the myrtle and orangeâ€"trees." | "I eannot tell," she replied. "I do not understand what it is that seems to call me home, but my mother‘s face is always : before me; and oh, Stephen, I would give anything for my little child to be born in my old home!" "You shall have your wish," replied Lord Lynnne, looking fondly _ at her; "but _I fear we shall not have a very warm reception from your mother." "She will be pleased to see us," said Lody Lynne; "and perhaps we might persuade her to leave Sarranto and go to Emfland for a time." Solely to please his beautiful young wife, to whom he could refuse nothing, Lord Lynne undertook the journey to Serranto. It was a long and somewhat tedious one, for Bianca was delicate, and could not travel far without fatigue. Madame Monteleone _ received them more warmly and kindly than they had anticipated. Nor by one single word or act had she forwarded their marriage ; but now that they weer married, not one word of her blig{ted hopes escaped her, and never once in her daughter‘s presence did she breathe a sigh. Even the expresâ€" sion of her face seemed changed. _ She had lived for one object, one hope alone had sustained her, one idea had directed all her words and actions. It was all over now, and she said to herself bitterâ€" ly that she had lived in vain. Something like resignation had taken the place of the determination that had made her face stern and cold. In after years Madame â€"Monteleone was thanked beyond words that she had never reproached her daughter, cither by word or look. But in vain did Lord and Lady Lynne try ip persuade her to leave _ Serranto for a time and visit Lynnewolde. "I wish I could understand, dear Biâ€" anca," said Lord Lynne to his wife one day, "why you wish to return to that gloomy old Serranto." _ They had been married almost a year when a sudden desire took possession of Lady Lynne. It was to return to SNerranto, so that her child might be born there. Lord Lyune said all he could to dissuade her, but in vain: She was too gentle, too vieclding to persist in reâ€" verting to ber wish when her husband had expressed disapprobation, but in a hundred ways he perceived how much she was really bent upon it. They had spent a year of unalloyed happiness. Day by Day Lord Lynne loved more dearly and deeply the beantiful, gentle girl who had tomehed his heart as no other woman ever could or did. To make her bappy, to watch her beautiâ€" ful girlish face brighten at his loving words, was the study and pleasure of his life. He divined her wishes, and executâ€" ed them almost before they were utterâ€" ed. They wandered about in those fair Italian cities, and life for them resemâ€" bled the golden dreams of the lotusâ€". eater, # ‘ In the first tumult of this new life, Bianca half forgot the hopes. she had wrecked, the ambition she had betrayed. Onee when tailking to Lord Lynne of her mother, she suddenly clasped her arms round his neck and asked him to give ug his English home, to bring his wealt over to Spain, and to call himself by her name of Monteleone; but he laughed lon%a.nd loudly at the mere idea, "Wait, Biance," he said, lightly, "until you have seen Lynnewolde. \(Yhy, my dear child, you could put all Serranto in on corner of it. You must beeome Engâ€" Iis‘l;i“l can never be a Spaniard." Whauv;r;};;;n;; ;a;‘o’-t.i\oug‘ht, Lady Lynne never expressed that wish to her huabumlA again, to have servants ready to obey her slightest word. It was pleasant to be a young, idolized wife, wgose every wish and whim were gratified. _ For one year Lord and Lady Lynne were perfectly happy. Bianca sighed when she remembered her mother in the gloomy castle of Sorrento. She madv be forgiven if her mind did not always dwell on that sad and cheerless picture. For the first time in her life she was happy; she was out in the fair, bright world, mixing freely with her fellowâ€"creatures, admired, loved, and praised by all. Her husband adored her; never was love so fmionat.e or so devoted as that of Lord .yune for his beautiful bride. Her loveâ€" ly face and sweet, graceful manners, her childâ€"like simplicity, won all hearts. In Rome, in Florence, and in sunny Naples, she who had never in her whole life heard one compliment, now found homâ€" age and flattery everywhere. It was imâ€" possible to be young and not enjoy the new and golden life opened to her. For the first time she wore magnificent jowâ€" els and costly dresses that enhanced hor beauty and made her doubly fair, Sho liked the grandeur that surrounded her; it was pleasure to dwell in sumptuous rooms, to tread upon soft, thick carpets; to gaze upon rare pictures and statues, | Lord Lyune persisted in calling every day. During Bianca‘s illness he was selâ€" | dom allowed to exchange a word with Madame Monteleone; but one eventful (lay, instead of being dismissed with a few curt words, he was invited into madame‘s boudoir. There she told him | frankly that her daughter‘s marriage with him would be the bitterest grief | of her life, the downfall of her hopes, the last step completing the final ruin of | her race. Still, Bianca‘s liie must not be sacrificed, and she withdrew her opâ€" position. i1 any preparations for the marriage, and the last of the Monteleones was led to the altar by her English lover in plain morning dress and without any ornaâ€" ment. Her mother never blessed herâ€" never gave her consent to the marriage. She said but these few words: "I withâ€" draw my opposition." So Stephen, Lord Lyune, married Bianca Monteleone, and imimmediately the ceremony was ended ho took her to Italy. __Not another word did the stern lady utter, even when Bianca knrelt at her feet to thank her. She would not assist dying, her heart breaking for the loss of the â€"fairâ€"haired Englishman, who had brought such goiden radiance into her gloomy life. have your wish," replied looking fondly _ at her; we shall not have a very desire took possession of It was to return to that her child might be rd Lynne said all he could Madame Monteleone had managed her own daughter admirably; but Inez was beyond her abilities She did not unâ€" derstand the child‘s passionate, ardent, artistic nature. She was half frightened when the rich musical voice sang of the hopes and wishes already forming in her f\'oung heart; she did not understand er. She could not tell why Inez craved to hear something of her absent English father, and looked wearied and melanâ€" choly when the poor lady epoke of the Monteleones. Then began that fatal sys tem of narrow restraint that ultimately :-'lrd Inez Lyune on to a life of woe misery. f For Madame Monteleone life seemed renewed. Even sas she had lived. hopes, and planned for Bianca, so she now lived and hoped for Inez. The same ambition was rerewed, the same Ideas were instilled into her mind. She devoted herself to the child‘s education ; she tried to make her all that her moth. er had been; but no two characters were ever more dissimilar than that of the young mother and her only child. Bianca was gentle and yielding, Inez was proud and unbending; as well try to move a rock as persuade her to change when her mind was once made up. BRianca had heard with reverence of the glories and honors of her race; Incz was iroud of them, but frankly told her horrified grandmamma that in her opinion a little present comfort was worth all the past grandeur put together. Dowager Lady Lynne died happy in beâ€" Heving her son to be so. The goldenâ€" haired child grew up into a sweet and lovely girl; yet no word came to sumâ€" mon the eldest and deazest child to her father‘s home. Lord Lynne shrank selfishly from seeâ€" ing her. He did not care to reopen the old wounds that had once emarted so acutely, He dreaded lest the sight of her mother‘s face in the child should bring back the anguish it had taken years to (jmfiun_. So time rolled on; the Regularly every quarter there came a letter from Madame Monteleons. The child, she said, had even more than her mother‘s beauty, with all the fire and epirit, all the pride and hauteur of her ancient race. | _ During the first year of his second marriage, he was wretched beyond _ exâ€" pression; he could not help itâ€"he could not avold comparing _ the passionate, beautiful Spaniard with his calm, ?luiet English wi;:; but when his daughter, the goldemâ€"haired Agatha, was born, he grew more reconciled to his fate. He was a rich man now, and held a high ymition in the county. He began _ to eel more interested in his duties; he became attached to his wife, in a quiet kind of way. He came to look upon that one year of({mriec!. happiness more as a beautiful dream than a reality; he tried to forget sunny Spain, her purple hills, her myrtles and olivesâ€"he tried to forget the lovely fuace that even in dying gad smiled upon him; he tried to forget the past and live only in the present, and in some degree he succeedâ€" While he lived, Lord Lynne _ never really loved or cared for any other woâ€" man; but in time he yielded to _ his mother‘s wishes, and brought home to Lynnewolde as his wife the wealthy and gentle lady whom she had selected. Iady Lynne realized how great her son‘s sorrow was when she saw his alâ€" tered face, At first she felt some disâ€" aprointmcnt at not seeing the little Inez but upon reflection she felt it better that he had returned alone. For some months she fetl anxious and alarmed about him; the spring of his life seemed gone. No smile ever came to his lips; never for one moment did his sorrow leave him. His mother began to to fear that his heart was hurimf in the grave of his beautiful and beloved wife. _ He could not bear to dwell upon that one brief year when she had been with him. But as years rolled on the bitterness of his grief died away. Bo Lord Lynne left the country where he had loved and suffered so deegly. Sorrow had aged and alterod him. His mother hardly recognized in the sad, thoughtful man the brightâ€"faced _ boy who had been away from her so short a time. Lady Lynne had said nothing when her son wrote to tell her of his marriage with the beautiful daughter of a noble but impoverished race; but the disappointment had been as great to her as to Madame Monteleone. She knew that the only hope for her son was to marry «ome one with money, and she hadâ€" selected in her own mind the lady whom she wished to see his wife, a quiet, gentle English girl, withâ€" out any pretensions to beauty, but the sole helress to an enormous fortune. But this 1 died when she heard that her son h:fiefomul a wife for himself, and she wisely abstained from saying anyâ€" th'inig either of her hope or disappointâ€" ment, When Stephen wrote to say that after the birth of his child he hoped to bring his wife home to Lynnewnm. sho made what preparations she could for them; but when ehe expected to hoar something definite as to the time of their arrival, there came the sad news of the death of the young and beautiâ€" ful bride. \ ug: all claim to this, his only child. o the matter was comgmmhed and _ he agreed that Madam Monteleone should have charge of his daughter for at least the next twelve years, if she lived so long. But to this he would not even agree, unless the Spanish lady would alâ€" low him to contribute a certain sum annually toward the support and eduâ€" cation of the little Inez. Madame Monâ€" telene would have consented to almost any terms he chose to offer, so anxious was she to retain her daughter‘s child. Lord Lynne hesitated for some minâ€" utes, It was his Bianca‘s child; and now that she had left him, he had nothâ€" ing else to love. But the pale, wistful face of the lady moved him. If he took a child so yourg to England, the chaneâ€" es were that it would die on the jourâ€" ney. And after all, it would be a perâ€" retual reminder of his sorrow and his oss; stil, he would not part with it altogether. He could not consent to give to ask a favor of you. You _ took from me my daughter, my one _ love, hope, and object in life; make amends for the wrong you did. Giive me this little babe in place of the child you took from me." v Two days before Lord Lynne left Serâ€" ranto. Madame Monteleone agpeqred beâ€" fore him in deep mourningâ€"dress, holdâ€" ing the Httle babe in her arms. "My son," she said, addressing him for the first time by that title, "I am here No words can describe the despair of the young husband. The blow was so sudden, «o unexpected, that it almost deâ€" prived him of life and reason. He could not realize the fact that his lovely and loving young wife had left hkim forever. Life lost all its charms, In the first bitterness of his sorrow, Lord Lynne had but one wish; it was to die, and so put an end to the anguish for which there seemed no remedy. . He remained at Serâ€" ranto simply because al lenergy was dead in him. At length he was roused from his grief by a letter from bis moâ€" ther, calling him home on urgent afâ€" fairs. said gentiv, "Let her do for you what I failed in doing; she will repay your care and love better than I have done."
