We were punctual to the appointed
hour-eight o'clock.
The second who acted with me was q
French gentleman, relative of one OF
the officers who had brought the uhal
lenge. At his suggestion, we had
chosen the pistol as our weapon. Ro-
mayne, like most Englishmen at the
present time, knew nothing of the use
of the sword, He was almost equally
inexperienced with the pistol.
Our opponents were late. They kept
us waiting for more than ten minutes.
1t was not pleasant weather to wait in.
The day had dawned damp and driz-
zling. A thick white fog was slowly
rolling in on us from the sea.
When they did appear the General
was not among them. A tall, we'll.
dressed young man saluted Romaync
with stern courtesy, and said to a stran
ger who accompanied him: "Explain
the circumstances.
The stranger proved to be q surgeon.
He entered at once on the necessary
explanation. The General was too i'll to
appear. He had been attacked that

Shortly after noon, on the next day,
we were established ut Boulogne-near
Lady Derrick, but not at her hotel.
eff We live in the same house," Ro-
mayne reminded me, eve shall be bored
by the companion and the doctor.
Meetings on the stairs, you know, and
exchanging bows and small talk" He
hated those trivial conventionalities Of
society in which other people delight.
When somebody once asked him in what
company he felt most at ease, he made
a shocking answer-he said, In the
company of dogs"
waited for him on the pier while he
went SO see her ladyship. He joined
me again with his bitterest smile.
"What did 1 tell you? She is not
well enough to see me to-day. The doc
tor looks grave, and the companion puts
her handkerchief to her eyes. We may
be kept in this place for weeks to
come.'
The afternoon proved to be rainy.
Our early dinner was bad one. This
last circumstance tried his temper sore
ly. He was no gourmand; the question
of cookery was with him) purely mat
ter of digestion. Those late hours Of
study, and that abuse of tea, to which ]
have already alluded, had sadly injured
his stomach. The doctors warned him
of serious consequences to his nervous
system, unless he altered his habits.
He had little faith in medical science /;
and he greatly overrated the restorative
capacity of his constitution. So far as
know, he had always neglected the
doctors advice.
The weather cleared toward evening,
and we went out for walk. We passed
church, the doors of which were still
open. Some poor women were kneeling
at their prayers in the dim light. "Wait
minute" said Romayne, 81 am in o
vile temper. Let me try to put myself
into better frame of mind"
I followed him into the church. He
knelt down in dark corner by himself.
I confess I was surprised. He had been
baptized in the Church of England; but
so far as outward practice was con-
cerned, he belonged to no religious
community. I had often heard him
speak with sincere reverence and adj
miration of the spirit of Christianity,
but he never, to my knowledge, attended
any place of public worship. When we
met again outside the church, he said:

LINES FOR THE MISSING BARD
CHARLES MACKAY.


Friend Charles Mackay, bard of renowi
Has age and irailties borne thee down!
Has brain and pen succumbed to time
That YOU no longer scribe rhyme9
Thy musings rich we love to read
They are to us most precious seed,
Though sparsely sown in this broad soil
They'll yet reward thee for thy toll.
Thy worth is not confined in hooks
Nor yet among our State school books;
Thy philanthropic souls enshrined
In Gods best work the guiless mind;
Thy rhyming genius lit fire
Which thaws unsoclsl icy ire,
With fuel keep this fire Supplied
Till fiigid feelings all subeide
Heaven honored toll thou ne'er despised
But for her wrongs hast sympathized,
Exposing wisely now and 'hen,
The frigid bent of moneyed men.
Thy country needs thee, worthy bard,
Down trodden toll is struggling hard,
Grim mammom hosts are now arrayed
In malice costumes undismayed;
Thy pen is sword from higher power,
Its truthful edges makes tyrants cover;
Their gambling marts in Stygian form,
Portrays q dreadful coming storm
Prophetic teachings they despise,
Vile pseudo stuff they highly prize;
Their fostered pride few comprehend,
l wonder if they'll ever mend.
The powers of msmmon triumph now.
Their lucre legions basely bow
A golden calf they have indeed,
Which feeds on toll with vulture speed;
Inverted are their cruel ways,
They live in misery half their days,
Ard torture labor all they can;
Oh what life, inhuman man.
Friend Charles, confer another rhyme,
Our spirits buoy with hopes sublime,
Say where you live and how you fare?
And other notings you can spare.
I'm half afraid you've crossed the line
Where mortals changed, immortal shine,
In atmospheres of joy and love
Where souls like thine all dwell above.
Time flies so swift we scarcely know
Our task is done, wlen we must go,
Leaving behind us tok ems clear
OF what we were when we were here.
Should you, friend Ch, rles, these verses
read,
Accept the spirit for the deed,
That wished for rhyme send straight O
hand
To FRosTBURa JOURNAL, Maryland.
In hopes, I'll close, and will await
Disclosures from thee, worth, great,
But should they fail TO reach my eye
I'll sadly say, friend Charles, goodbye.

merely desired to avoid provoking an

really impudent enough to call at the
hotel, had arranged to threaten them
with the interference of the police, and
SO to put an end to the matter. Ro-

The doctors could do no more for the
Dowager Lady Derrick.
When the medical advisers OF the
lady, who has reached seventy years OF
age, recommend the mild climate of
the south of France, they mean in plain
language that they have arrived at the
end of their resources. Her ladyshlp
gave the mild climate q fair trial, and
then decided las she herself expressed
it) to "die at tome." Travelling slow
ly, she had reached Paris at the date
when last heard of her. 1t was then
the beginning of November. A week
later 1 met with her nephew, Lewis Ro-
mayne, at the club.
"What brings You to London at tliis

of Lady Derrick. After resting in Paris
the patient had continued her home
ward journey as far rs Boulogne. In
her suffering condition she was liable
to sudden fits of caprice. An insur-
mountable horror of the Channel pas
sage had got possession of her; she
positively refused to be taken on board
the steamboat. In this difficulty the
lady who occupied the post OF her
companion had ventured on o sug-
gestion. Would Lady Berriok consent
to make the Channel passage if her
nephew came to Boulogne expressly to
accompany her ON the voyage? The
reply had been 80 Immediately favorable
that the doctor lost no time in COM
municating with Mr.. Lewis Romayne.
This was the substance of the letter.
1t was needless to ask any more lues-
tions. Romayne was plainly on his way
to Boulogne. I gave him some useful
information.
" Try Tie oysters" said sat the res
tarant on the pier"
He never even thanked me. He was
thinking entirely of himself.
"Just look at my position" he said.

correct. Senator Johnston, OF Virginia,
arrived in the city to day and said to

he IS confident that the Democrats will
carry Virginia, whether the Republicans
run a straight ticket or not. he says ne
knows of a large number OF Democratic
Readjusters who have repudiated Ma
hone and returned TO the regular Demo-
cratic ranks and that the Democratic
vote tins year will be larger than last
year.
On reassembling. the conference COM
mittee reported that it could not agree;
Mr.. Clark, OF Fairfax, who bad acted
during the day with the straight
outs, offered resolution as
substitute for the disagreeing
reports. providing that wickhsm
