Oh, THE HAG OF THE FORREST

OR, THE HAG OF THE FORREST.
Concluded.l
"Be ever thus, and thy secret is safe. Sit
down and will tell thee now what design |
have in view. First thou must know that
Arabella Ravenscourt is daughter to my once
lord and master. Many, many long years since,
Baron Ravenscourt rendered me favor, which,
on the altar of God, | solemnly vowed should
never be forgotten, and should be returned,
though it cost my life. The time for returning
that favor has now arrived. Baron Ravens
court has died; yet his daughter, Arabella,
lives, and TO her will return it, by endeavor-
ing to preserve her life from an ignominous
death! The day, nay within the hour, that sig
nal service was done me, an humiliating, de-
grading act was committed on tho corpse Of my
brother, by Herbert st. Lacy. And then
swore to be revenged on his cowardly heart
and to fulfil those two oaths has Rose Red
wood tarried thus long in the world. Herbert
st. Lacy's death wish, but 1t must be done by
his own hand! and this is my scheme. You,
Bernard, are cquainted-intimate with Her.
bert st. Lacy; you must entice him to gamble
play deep, win every dollar he possesses
gain possession of all he is worth-entice him
to torge-and when you have him thus far in
your power, threaten to disclose al-goad him
on to madness, and do not let him rest, till he
takes his own accused life Ha! ha! and then
then will rest in peace. Succeed in this,
Bernard DVill, and 1, Rose Redwood, will DO
your siavet-wlll lick the very dust you tread
on But play me false, and your own blood
shall atone. | would not rest till your warm
blood drained from every vein in your body!"
As she proceeded in her fiendish plot, every
muscle in her body vibrated; the veins stood
out upon her forehead lihe cords, her eyes
swelled in their sockets and seemed to shoot
forth living fire.
"Wilt acquiese, Bernard"
at shall be done; but the"
II understand; you shall have pay! And
extending her hand above her head, she re-
moved stone, drew forth from the crevice
small bag of money, and, with look of dis
gust, threw it at D'Vill's feet. "Hence now,
but remember" she said, motioning her hand
towards the mouth of the caee.
Huiredly he quilted the cave, and directed
his steps towards the distant town; as he issued
forth the wind bore to his ear the OMNIBUS
sound of bell, whose notes pealed high above
the storm the hour of one!
