RUINED RICE CROPS.


The most distressing accounts come from
the rice fields along the SaItee river. The
whole country for miles on each side of the
river in Williamsburg, Georgetown and
Berkeley counties is covered with water.
The rice in most cases is totally DESTROYED.
Many planters will be driven from business.
The condition of the colored laborers is
pitiful in the extreme. The water is over
kne, deep. Their gardens have been wash
ed away and they have nothing TO eat, and
no probability of getting work before next
spring. The waters show some sign of
falling and terrible stencil has arisen,
which is precursor of malignant fevers.

THE TIMES AND DEMOCRAT: THURSDAY, APRIL.15 1886.

At the end of our stay by the sea it was
our intention to return to London for q
couple of days. and then start for Switzer-
land. Here, or in what country we close,
we were to spend months. In fact, had
as vet no home to offer my wife. Tho tenant
of Herstal Abbay would not turn out with
out six months notice; 20, for the time we
must be wanderers.
Eustacc Grant, had by now almost 1or-
rotten him-wrote once to my wife. She
Seemed oyerjoyed as she saw his hand
writing, but vexed at the ceremonious way
in which his letter began. 1t lies before
me now. Icopy it:
my DEAR MRS. Lorraine: You will re-
member that next Tuesday is your twenty
first birthday.
Gas I nm going abroad very shortly, l
am anxious to submit the accounts Of the
trust to you and, Of course, Mr.. Lorraine.
Ihear that YOU will be in town on Tuesday.
Can call upon you anywhere, or would it
be more convenient for US to meet at my
solicitor's-Mr. Monk, SO L:ncoln's Inn

cerely. "EUsTAcE GRANT.

ulation.n said Viola, in q ve1ed tone.

10 o'clock on Tuesday"
To which effect Viola wrote. did moi

length of 1t.

however, light it; and, although | looked
as csrelessly as I could in another direction,
I knew that he was attentively scanning
my face This scrutiny became unbearable.
''You have something to say to me-, Mr.
Grant:" REMARKED.
Yes. am only considering how to say
it. I am something of physiosnomist,
and have been studying your face for my
guidance"
Ismiled scornfully, but said no more. He
was welcome to look at me all night if he
chose to do 50. Suddenly, in sharp, alb
rupt way, lie spoke

means he could make inquiries OF my solici-
tor, who had my instructions to answer all
his questions fully.
To this letter he did not reply; but !
heard that be made the inquiries, as | sug-
gested. No doubt, ia Viola's interest, he
was right in so doing; but 1 liked him none
the more for the action.
Yes; Viola, overcome by my lmpas-
stoned prayers, had consented 10 an almost
immediate marriage There was, indeed,
no rea.on why we Should wait day She
loved me, and was willing to trust her
future in my hands l loved her, and
longed for the moment which wonld make
her mine forever. Moreover, I longed for
the time 10 come when l might tell her all;
confess the innocent but foolish deception
had practiced, and beg her forgiveness
not for mistrusting her, but her sex in
general was sorely tempted to reveal
the trus state Of affairs without further de-
lay; but Grants warning rose to my mind,
and determined that until the irrevocable
words were spoken, would keep my
Secret.
We were married in the quietest way
possible. Viola, it seemed to me, had no
bosom friends-no relatives who would be
mortified unless they were asked to the
wedding. The old spinster, who looked
very prim and ready to apply her favorite
word. sindecorous," to the whole proceed

that; for some reason or another, he had
excused himself. At this she seemed greatly

showed too plainly his feelings, both to-
ward me and toward Viola.
But he was in tho church; he was. there

crossed her cheek, and these signs told me

Now that my foot was inside the citadel,
I went to work fiercely, impatuously, to
gain my desire The days that followed are
to mo too sacred to be described: but not
many passed before I knew that Viola's
love was my own.
