They both feared that he might be
found on the next day to have departed
from his intention; but no such idea
seemed to have occurred to him. lie
gave instructions as to notice to be serv-
ed the agent from the Hospital as to his
house, and allowed Emily TO go among
his things and make preparations for
the Journey. He did not say much to
her; and when she attempted, with q
soft half-uttered word, to assure him
that the threat of Italian interference,
which bad come from Stanbury, had
not reached Stanbury from her, he simply
shook his head sadly. She could not
understand whether he did not believe
her, or whether he simply wished that
the subject should be dropped. She
could elicit no sign of affection from
him, nor would he willingly accept such
from her; but he allowed her to prepare
for the Journey, and never limited that
his purpose might again be liable to
change. On the Friday, Emily with her
child, and Hugh with all their baggage,
travelled out on the road TO Casalunga,
thinkiAg il better that there should be
no halt in the town on their return. AT
Casalunga, Hugh went up the hill with
the driver, leaving Mrs. Trevelyan i'll
the carriage. He had been out at the
house before in the morning, and had
given all necessary orders; but still at
the last moment he thought that there
might be failure.
But Trevelyan was ready, having
dressed himself up with u laced shirt,
and changed his dressing gown for a
blue frock-coat, and his brocaded CAP
for Paris hat, very pointed before and
behind, and closely turned up at sides.
But Stanbury did not in the least care
for his friends dress. Take my arm,"
he said, land We will go down, fair and
easy. Emily would not come up because
of the heat" He suffered himself TO be
led, or almost carried down the hill; aud
three women, and the coachman, and an
old countryman who worked on the
farm, followed with the luggage. 1t
took about an hour and a half to pack
the things; but at last they were all
packed, and corded, and bound together
with sticks, as though it We're intended
that they should travel in that form to
Moscow. Trevelyan the meanwhile sat
on a chair which had been brought out
for him from one of the cottages, and
his wife stood beside him with her bow.
"Now then We are ready" said Stanbury,
And in that way they bade farewell TO
Casalunga. Trevelyan sat speechless n
the carriage, and would not even notice
the child. He seemed to be half dream
ing, and to fix his eyes on vacancy. Gle
appears to think of nothing now" Emi-
" said that evening to Stanbury. But
who can tell how busy and how troubled
are the thoughts of mailman
They had now succeeded in their ob'
ject of inducing their patient to return
with them England; bat what were they
to do with him when they had reached
home with himi They rested only a
night at Florence; but they found their
fellow traveller so weary that they were
unable to get beyond Bologna on the
second day. Many questions were asked
of him as to where he himself would
wish to take up his residence in Eng
land; but it was found almost impossi-
BILE TO get an answer. Once he suggested
that he would like TO go back to Mrs.
Fuller's cottage at Willesden, from
whence they concluded that he would
wish to live somewhere out of London.
On his first days journey, he was moody
and silent, willfully assuming the airs
of mach injured person. He spoke
hardly at all, and would notice nothing
that was said to him by his wife. He
declared once that he regarded Stsnbury
as his keeper, and endeavored to be dis.
agreeable and sullenly combative; but
on the second day he was too weak fol
this, and accepted, without remon,
STRANGE, the attentions that were paid
TO him. AT Bologna they rested a day
and from thence both Stanbury and
MIS- Trevelyan wrote to Nora. They
ato not know where she might be now
s m ing but the letters, by agreement
woao addressed to Gregg's Hotel. Ii
