THE HISTORY OF All OPAL RING.

In the meanwhile the ladies were can

tina had to relate where she had met
MIR. Douglas, and what she knew Of
him.
IF Miss Beaumont isacquainted with
him, it is all right, am sure, Mrs.
Dalton said. Miss Beaumont is
obliged to be very particular with her
school. There can be no objection TO
Mr.. Douglas and his friends calling
here occasionally"
Mrs. Dalton complacently smoothed
and folded her mantle as she uttered
these words Of wisdom.
Mr., ST. Lawrence was evidently much
struck with you, Lena" she added.

rejoined Lena. THAT does not make

Lena sighed. Could her heart have
been touched so sOOny What was IT
that responded to st, Lawrence's ex-
pressive glances. to the tones of his
voice? Why did SILVER pass through
her, as if cold mist had suddenly OBJ
scured the sun. as she contrasted him
with that other man whose wife she had
already in her own mind determined to
be? In the meantime, however, she
might receive st. Lawrence's homage to
her charms. She did not feel bound to
turn deaf ear to other admirers, either
now or hereafter. because she could be-
stow her hand only on one.
II shall like so much to see the sketch

CHATTER XIV.

Fancourt s passionate admiration for
Lena Dalton had increased rather than
diminished during the time Of his en-
forced absenCe-She need have been un-
der no alarm. He had fully intended to
pursue his suit, but letter received
from Julie Lemout altered his plans,
and took him out Of town for few
days.
During subsequent interview with
Lord AlphingtOn. affairs had been ar
ranged entirely to his satisfaction
Handsome apartments were assigned
him in the long-vacant house in Magnus
Square: and what even he acknowl-
edged to be a handsome income was
mentioned as about to be placed at his
disposal, Lord Alphington placing a
check for a considerable amount in his
hands for present expenses. He could
scarcely conceal his exultation when
informed of these arrangements, and
Lord Alphington's manner increased in
GOODNESS toward him.
If FancOurt had betrayed any emotion
on assuming the name and rank of his
forefathers, or had expressed any de-
sire to stand we'll with the old Earl, or
to be guided by his wishes in any way,
or had shown any anxiety to fulfill well
the duties of his new station. Lord
Arlington heart might have soften
ed toward him-he might have forgiven
much. But there was nothing OF the
kind; it was all Self-all sordid greed.
When Lord Alphington came to talk
with him on general subjects he found
him by no means ignorant or devoid OF
a certain degree of cultivation; the real
want was deeper. FancOurt's idea Of
good was expediency; of pleasure, mere
sensual qualification; Of wisdom, the
low cunning necessary to deceive for
certain ends. All else he considered
mere hypocrisy; and 50 far was he from
being conscious that he was laying bare
a low, vulgar nature that he believed he
was making himself out fine fellow,
a man OF the world, with no humbug
about him
Lord Alphington, wounded and dis
tressed, returned to A phington Park
returned to feel his splendid home more
lonely than ever; for now what hope
could there be that the void there would
ever be tlIledY Fancourt would marry,
as matter of course, but he had little
expectation that such q step would
mend matters, What girl OF refined
tastes and delicate habits would unite
herself with the low-bred, shallow
headed, evil-minded upstart he was
compelled to own as his grandson? No;
there was nothing to look forward to
there, Fancourt would be caught by
some pretty face. most likely in a lower
grade, and would be arcepted-how
else could he be acceptedy Lord Alph.
ington asked himself-for the sake Of
his wealth and future title.
Could the desolate old man have
known that FancOurt had already made
his choice. he would have taken some
comfort. He had not felt particularly
interested in Madeline Dalton, but at
any rate she was a beautiful and grace
full woman, who would not disgrace her
husbands name
Lord Alphington wandered disconsO-
lately from room to room on the day
after his return home, lingering before
each memento of former and happier
years. He had never suffered his wife's
workable and embroidery frame to be
removed from the place in which they
had used to stand during her lifetime.
