Miss Trevanion smiled, in spite of
herself, at the child's simplicity.
1t were a poor consolation, Katie"
she said, to have dreamed of the best
man in the world. If | had lost any
other jewel | possessed, [ wouldn't say a
word; but that crescent has been in our

father placed it in my hand, he babe me

be the one to lose it'll"
Just then servant entered, with the
information that her uncle desired her
immediate presence in his room; and
with a beating heart and futtering
nerves, she hurried down. He met her
at the door, with pale and troubled
face.

ment he had seated her, and resumed
his own place beside a table piled with
papers, 81 have painful and sorrowful
news to communicate. | received letters
from my agent this morning, and the
latest London papers,
"Go on, sir" Julia said, her voice
sounding hoarse and unnatural.
"The 'Albatross,'" he continued,
took fire on the Indian Ocean, and
every soul, except a couple of sailors,
persisted. My agent had seen these men,
and assured me that poor Maurice was
certainly lost"
For at least five minutes after the
fatal announcement the silence of the
grave reigned at last her uncle cleared
his throat once or twice, and said in a
constrained voice =" You must not take
this sorrowful -dispensation too sorely,
my dear; God knows best, and we must
submit to His will
ooh, if | could have had one word
one last goodbye" moaned Julia, lifting
her face from her hands, so white and
changed by the few moments of agony
she had endured, that her uncle regard
ed her in panied surprise.
Il hoped" he continued, "that this
news would not affect you, or | would

dear, allow me-

passionately, ''you hoped it would not

She arose and tottered from the room,
wringing her slender hands in agony

CHAPTER, TIT.

"Julia, Julia, do, for PHYS sake, let
me in
Miss Trevanion was pacing up and
down her chamber, with an air of great
perturbation; but at the sound of her
friends voice. so full of sorrowful en-
treaty, she paused, and Enclosed her
door. Katie rushed in, her pink cheeks
discolored by tears, and her blonde ring
lets all in tumble.
ooh, julia" she cried, edo tell me
what you have dreamed? I could
scarcely wait to get my clothes on, I
wanted to know SO bad"
The heiress smiled sadly, as she kissed
her hayward little friend.
Il have dreamed great many things,
Katie" she said, ''that I hope Will never
come true; but [ half believe that gypsy
has bewitched me-"
ooh, Julia, what did you dream?"
"Why, for three successive nights,
the moment [ touched my pillow, I
seemed to be out upon a measureless
ocean, with leagues and leagues of roll
ing pillows round me, and an inky sky
overhead, on the western verge of
which hung a red, glaring moon. I was
alone, with no hope of escape from the
terrible tempest that howled behind me
but just as my despair became unbear-
able, always at the same moment it
seemed, a great vessel, with fIutterine
sails and streaming pennon, came in
sight; and on its deck, his face brighten
ed with hope and triumph, was Maurice!'
"You love him, julia" whispered
Katie, half awed by the girls face; che
is your destiny.'
Miss Trevanion's white lips parted as
if wall were about to escape them; but
she resolutely kept it down.
"But, Katie" she continued, her lips
quivering painfully, Gust as I seemed to
near the stately ship, she took fire and
burned beneath my very eyes, Oh, the
lurid, Kissing flames, and Maurice's white
face sinking down, down. the sight will
haunt me till my death. 1t became 50
terrible real this morning, that [ took
the box from beneath my pillow, and
hurled it across the room-I believe it is
accursed."
"Have you opened it, Julia, asked
Katie.
"What! the box? Mop
II have opened mine, and it contained
this-not my beautiful topaz"
She extended her hand, upon the palm
of which lay worthless copper coin.
Miss Trevanion started to her feet,
with q wild terror in her eyes, and
snatched the little box from her toilet.
ooh, Katiep' she cried, her fingers
futtering nervously; Il can't unlock the
thing. Oh, dear, [ believe | shall go
madp'
Katie took it from her, and touched
the spring. 1t opened with sharp snap.
There was similar coin within, but the
diamond crescent was gone"
"Mv heavens?' moaned Julia, sinking
down and burying her face in her hands.
"What fool [ have been! Oh, what
will uncle say?'
"Don't tell him." suggested Katie.

titled husband"
CT envy the happy man." bowed Lord
Carnochan, calamity.
Katie tossed her head, blushing even
more wildly.
"And see here" she continued, pro-
ducing small ivory box; ''this is the
dream-spell. l am to put it under my
head for three successive nights"
"And dream of your future husband"
put in the nobleman; 81 have heard of
that spell before. What does the box
contain?"
"My ring. You have to put in some
valuable article, you know; and put in
my ring-the topaz, you know, Julia?'
care you sure the ring is in there?"
asked Carnochan, giving the box little
shake.
Kate looked indignant.
"Of course, | am sure, Lord Carno-
chan," she replied; "didn't I put it in
with my own hands, and then close the
spring? You will get one too, Julia:
Come, quick! we shall have worlds of
fun"
Miss Trevanion laughed, and said,
"What utter nonsense! And yet, you
see, my lord, that | am no wiser than
the rest of my sex; SO 90 to hear my
destiny"
The gypsy looked up from the book of
fate that lay open on his knee, with a
swift, sweeping glance of his glittering
eyes, as the beautiful young heiress APP
preached him. and there was something
so weird and unearthly about his ap-
pearance, that, when he put out his long,
skinny palm, that she might cross it with
gold, she felt awed in spite of herself
and when, after much gibbering and
gesticulating. he told her of several
events in her past life, of whose nature
only herself and uncle were cognizant,
she felt her heart throbbing, and her
common sense yielding before the power
Of wonderful and inexplicable mys-
terry. The keen son of the forest saw
his advantage, and proceeded rapidly.
Your past has been clouded, my
beautiful lady" he continued; "but
your future will be bright, and your
welded life will be very happy"
Indeed, laughed Julia, recovering
her equanimity; "that is certainly en-
couraging. And now, pray, let me have
the most important fact of all. Who is
to be the sharer of my welded life?"
The fortune-teller appeared wholly alb
sorbed in the mystic signs before him
for several moments; and then he re-
Piled "He seems to be far away, on dis
tant seas, [ think; and his face can only
be brought before you by the power Of
the dream-spell. Will you try it?"
ooh, of course, | wish to leave uoth-
ing untried."
The necromancer nodded approvingly,
and produced little box similar to the
one Kate had exhibited.
"Now,,' he said, touching q secret
spring by which it was fastened, "you
must put in the charm-something you
value"
Julia stood irresolute q moment; and
then, with sudden flush of excitement,
she detached the chain from her neck,
from which the diamond crescent hung.
A queer, quaint old gem, as lustrous as
an Arctic constellation.
Il value this more than anything else
[ possess she said; "'tis really q
! charm, possessed of wondrous properties,
so the legend goes"
She dropped it in; and with NANTES
tations of approval, the gypsy closed the
box, and after muttering string of in
carnations, placed it in her hands.

THE PUNISHED.
By ELLA WHEELER.

Not they who know the awful gibbet's anguish,
Not they who while sad years so by them, in
The sunless cells of lonely prisons anguish,
Do suffer fullest penalty for sin.
IT'S they who walk the highways unsupported,
Yet with grim fear for ever at their side,
Who clasp the corpse of some sin undetected,
A corpes no grave coffin lid can hide.
IT'S they who are in their own chambers haunted
BY thoughts that like unwelcome guests intrudt
And sit down unlimited and unwanted,
And make nightmare of the solitude.

Sand. if not the best, is one of the
best articles in use for bedding cattle.
1t is good deodorizer, and keeps the
stable sweet-if stable can be sweet.
As the cattle work it back into the
trench under their feet, it mixes with
the manure, and thus divides it and
makes it more suitable for the use of
plants. If the distant TO haul is not to
far, its very cheapness ought to recon-
mend its use. In barns that have no
cellars, were it used freely, it would
absorb a large amount of urine th at is

things to use in the stable, but sand is

New gs.hoi Q! Setting Ei.E.

Mr.. Edward Burnett, OF the Deerfoot
farm, SOuthboro', Mass. has invented a
method of setting milk, whereby he
forces all the cream to rise on it in the
short period of ten hours, thus making
great saving in the number of vessels
required for holding the milk, perfectly
sweet tor use in feeding TO his celebrat-
ed pigs, or for making into cheese. By
his process the milk is put into deep
pals, perhaps twenty inches deep by
eight inches in diameter, and these are
arranged in such way that the lower
part is exposed TO the ordinary temper
AZURE of the dairy room, say seventy
or seventy-five degrees, while the tops
are covered with a movable ice chest,
which keeps them exposed to cold
cir. Upon the well known principle
that heat rises and cold descends, the
warm milk at the bottom of the pals is
constantly rising toward the top, while
that which has become cold descends,
thus keeping up a constant circulation,
which, it is claimed, so irritates the
cream that it is glad to get up to the top
and settle.
