"Mademoiselle," he addâ€" ed, turning to her, "believe me, you are now safe." Lucie sat crouching in the farther corâ€" ver,. her beautiful eyes fixed on him with a look that seemed mingled of apâ€" peal and terror, He could seem to comâ€" prebhend that she had heard his knock with a thrill of hope, and had seen him appear with a renewed hopelessness, He felt a keen pang of shame in the thought that his associations had been such that a pure girl must regard him with fear. "It is 1, Lord Hawkshurst," he said, and pushed his way into the room, and case a quick glance around. Heavy steps crossed the room, and the door was opened With a jerk that scemed to have something of anger in it, Lord Hawkshuest -to:s in the doorâ€" way, looking out, and it seemed to Auâ€" brey that he never before had noticed how evil the face of the man was.

HMe was drenched to the akin, and his horse would not go off a slow walk, and even so stumbled and went down a dozen times,. Finally Aubrey disâ€" mounted, and led the tired animal. Rometimes he believed he must have passed the hut, but he still kept on. It was a wild ride, and he could not blame the driver for not turning back on it; but he was too full of indignaâ€" tion and horror to think of his own safety. More than once he found himâ€" self off the road, and once stood on the very brink of a precipice, over which he was trying to urge his more knowing horse.

Go on yourself, if you like it." ‘‘Turn your horses and go back there. The young lady must not be left there alone," said Aubrey, _ 4 Aubrey slammed the door, and turnâ€" ed to the driver. "Where is this hut you speak of?" he demanded. "About two miles farther up the road." "The driver would not, and I should have perished had 1| remained alone," she cried. "You are very tender of that!" cried Aubrey, indignantly. "Why did you not remain up there?" _ e sn t ‘They will find the hut," eried the driver. "But my child‘s reputation!" cried the marquise, "Ob, heavens! who are you? Is that Lord Hawkshurst?" "Noâ€"Lord â€" Aubrey, _ Where _ are Hawkshurst and your daughtert" "Lost in the mountain. Ab, heaven! they are lost, and they may perish!" "Who are your passengers?" he cried to the driver, "Ouly oneâ€"a lady," was the answer. "Who are yout" "I am a tourist, crossing the mounâ€" tain in search of another party. Where are you from?" Aubrey waited for no more, but tore open the door of the carriage. "Are you there, Madame ia Marquise de Senact" he cried. "I started to cross this evening with two ladies and a gentleman. ‘Iwo of the Jmtty are lost on the mountain, the third is in the carriage." "Halloa!" came back the answer and as the heavens were split by a flash of lightning, Aubrey could see a vehicle drawn by two horses laboring along just in front of him. * loat ‘Halloa!" he called,‘ putting his hands to his mouth and caliing after the {ashâ€" ion of the mountainseers. For three hours it seemed to him he went laboriously on before the storm broke, and then it seemed to him that he made no more profeu. Indeed, he was forced after a while to dismount, and lead his exhausted animal to the side of the road, where a flash of vivid lightning had revealed the presence of a great tree, There be remained, waiting for the torm to subside, but never thinking of turning back. But the storm conâ€" tinued with unabated fury, and he might have remained there indefinitely if through the noise of the storm he kad not heard the sound of appromching whee‘s, ‘ He had food ensugn for thought durâ€" ing that hazardous journey, and perhaps he never in after years remembered any of his thoughts more clearly than those with which he was troubled on that night, p He procured what directions he could, and in less than half an hour was on his way over the rough mountain road, picking his path with difficulty in the darkness of a night made blacker by the gathering stormâ€"clouds. "It is the very opportunity he sought," murmured Aubrey. "I must go on. Bring me the horse and let me take the risk. 1 must overtake the other party."* "Give me a horse to take the place of this, which is tired out," he said.

It was a sober, serious night to him, as any one might have guessed who had looked into his face,. lHe had the past and the future to think of, and there was no one to interrupt his thoughts, but the beautifu! girl near him, and she slept like a child throughout the whole night. And there could be no question of the wisdom of what he was doing. He bad given his promise, and he would do it,. As soon toâ€"morrow as day dawned he would take her to find a clergyman who would make her the Countess of Aubrey. To save this child, to whom he had hardly addressed a hundred words, from weddmg a libertine, who had been the companion of his choice, he was going to tie himself for life to her. Outside the storm was driving pitiâ€" lessly, and he sat there listening to it. He knew that he had reached another stage in his life, and that from that niggt would begin a new era. It was a strange beginning. . "The poor child is tired out," he murâ€" mured, as he looked at her. "She is very beautiful, and she comes of a good race. I wonder what the end of a union so begun will be?t Shall I learn to love her? Will she learn to love me?" The ni{:L that followed Lord Aubrey‘s strange betrothal he never forgot. At first he tried to talk with Lucie, but she seemed prostrated and unable to talk composedly; so he forebore to say anyâ€" thing to her, and she presently fell into a deep sleep. _ %e 5M "I love no one else, and J shall try to learn to love you," he said.

"Let me go from here!" she cried, He opened the door, and stood aside to let her pass, She darted ‘fut him like a frightened creature, and reached the brink of the chasm.
