The movemen. on the part Of Lallemand
was simultaneous with a similar one on the
part of Rocheambeau, who undertook to ex'
plain to his daughter--nOw at home from
her late prison-the state of her relation
ship to the ViscOunt de Lallemand. The re-
suit was very nearly the same Another
rebellious spirit was aroused, and war be-
tween parents and children now openly de-
clared. MademoiseIle vowed never to yield
her freedom into the hands Of a man she did
not know or love, and emphasized that dec
lafation by stamping her handsome loot with
the force OF Vulcan, and the anger Of
blushing Diana, furious at Narcissus. And
not only was this declaration made to her
father, but also TO the unotlending viscout
for while vet the passion was at its most fu-
rious glow, she dispatched the following note
to him, the first Of series, which may be
characterized as "spicy correspondence"

hotel OF the marquis. Meantime, let us re-
turn to Ernest de Lalemand. The inten.
ton expressed in his letter to MademoiSelle
was hardly formed; he had as yet taken no
step in performing it, He was in q half
crazed state, and did not know how to act.
He could not find Nanine; her apartments
were deserted. He knew he should find her
at the hour in which they usually met. He
had gone there at another hourin the bare
hope Of meeting her, and informing her Of
his rank, plead with her to fly with him. As
he feared, he did not find her, and SO he re-
turned diseonsolate to the hotel, to wait for
the hour when he could see her. AT last
the hour came. and, found him entering her
apartments: but no Napine came to the door
to Welcome him. It Welded to his gentle
touch, but there was no voice in the room 10
walcome him. the room was deserted He
