ROLAND acid the GREAT ORDER,

BO OK.

Roland was awake and cairn, hut so feeble that he
made no effort to rise; and it wan his calm, indeed, that
alarmed me the most—it was like the calm of nature
thoroughly ext.austed. He obeyed me mechanically, as a
patient takes from your hand toe draught, of whieh he is
annost unconscious, whon I pressed him to take food.
lie smiled on me faintly when I sp, k, to him; but made
we a sign that seemed to implore silence. Thou he

little, and fei-ling for my hand, he said in a scarcely
audible voice—
%V here is he?" _

" Would you see him, sir?"
" No, no; that would kill me—and then—what would
become of him?" _ _ _

`' He has promised me an interview, and in tbat inter-
view I feel assured he will obey your wisies, whatever
they are."

Roland mad,. no answer.

" Loyd CaNtl,,tnn his arranged all, so that his name
and wiriness Coos let us call it) will never be known."
" Pride, pride! prido still!"—murmured the old
soldier. " The name, the name—well, that is much;
but the living soul!—I wish Austin were here."
" I have sent for him, sir."

Roland pressed my hand, and wis again silent. Then
he pecan to mutter, as I thought, incoherently, about
" the Peninsula and obeying orders; and how some officer
woke Lord Wellesley at night, and said that something
or other (I weld not catch what—vie phrase was tech-
nical and military) was iranossible ; and how L Ord
Wellesl-y asked' Where's the order-book?' and lookhog
into the order-book,• said, • Not at all 'imp ,ssible, for it
is in the order-book;', and so Lord Welle,ley turned
round and went to 81,, p again." Then suddenly Roland
half rose, and said in a voice clear and firm, "But Lord
Wellesley, though a great captain, was a fallible man,
sir, and the order• book was his own mortal handiwork.
—Get me the Biblv!"
Oh Roland, Roland! and I had feared that thy mind
was wandering!
So I went down and borrowed a Bible in large cha-
racter-,, and placed it on the bed before him, op,nin„.• the
shutters, and letting in God's day up n. God', word.
I had just dour this, wh,n there was a slight knock at
the dour. I opened it, and Lord Ca,tletun ,toed w►;h-
out. He iiBkcil me, in a whisper, if he migh,t 411. a
uncle. I drew him in gently, and pointed to the soldier
