CHAPTER v.-THE CHIEF OF POLICE.

| The death of her father taught Nadege
how much help little Ladislas was to her.
The child strove to assuage her deep af-
| lection, he devised means to aid her in the
| thousand difficult things attending life
of Punishment. The care he required, in
his turn, took the orphans attention from
her grief.
Yegor, thanks to the influence of M.
! Nadeieff was soon enabled to establish him
| self in the little hamlet where Nadege and
| Ladislas lived. He lodged with some po-
litical exiles of noble birth, stricken for
that reason with greater severity. They
| occupied a cabin opposite to that in which
Davidoff had passed the last years of his
life.
Every hour not demanded by the employ
ment given him by the grantee of the mines,
Yegor cOnsecrated to his betrothed, who
was also assisted on many occasions by the
wives and daughters Of the exiles in the vi
cinity.
What a terrible promise have made to
Nadege's father" he often sal. to himself,

came serfs of the crown. If the condemned
man received his pardon, if he were included
In an amnesty, his offspring did not pgfrtici-
pate in the benefits but remained serfs.
The ul1asc Of 1851, relative to the abolition of
serfdom, somewhat notified this dcplorable
condition Of affairs. But could Yogor soon
fulfil the engagement made at Davidoff's
deathbed2
The future frightened him,

Nadege, I'VE will postpone our union until it

"Yes-by fight--my liberty and yours"
Give the word and will follow you, said
Davidoffs daughter. o.
Then YegoI' felt himself stronger. He
admitted to his betrothed that when he
set foot on Siberian soil, he was already
thinking of the means by which to escape
from the Odious punishment which had
overtaken him. If he wished to be free
when he thought her dead to him, what
would he not do now to be worthy of heri
He did not wish her to become the wife Of
a convict.
From that moment Yegor began to study
the chances offered by the various modes Of
escape. He adroitly questioned the hunters

ical sciences. Hence it seemed to the
grantee, who was cold and positive man,
that he could turn Yegor's requirements
to a better account than by putting ham,
mer or wedge in his hand at the bottom OF
q mine.
M. Nadeieff was a vigorous and thick-set

and piercing black eyes, fat nose, thick
lips, which allowed white and solid car.

Irkoutsk! Oh! how agreeably that name
sounded in Yegor's ears Was it not al
Irkoutsk that the inspector of the mines OF
Nertchinsk had told him Davidoff and his
daughter resided9 What if he should re-
cover his old friends! That would be toe

of Providence. Irkoutsk! that was to say
far from the mine, far from the whip-armed
corporal, far from the murderous rock al

suicide. Irkoutsk is civilized world and
the spot where, perhaps, lived the poet Dav'

about to share, perhaps, with the adopted
sister whom he loved so nobly. His heart
leaped, but he was afraid to show his joy
M. Nadeieff might ill-interpret his senti'

Yegor answered simply:

CHAPTER III.-IRKOUTsK.

The morning was fine, though cold. The
autumn was advancing. Nevertheless, the
very few stunted and squatty trees, which
stood here and there had preserved all the
solid luxury of their sombre foliage, which
no red or golden fruit relieved. In Siberia
the trees produce nothing, not because heat
is wanting, but because of the extreme rigor
of the frosts, which damages the roots and
destroys the action of the sap. The cloud
less sky had the limpidity of lake of azure,
and huge focks of wild geese sailed through
it like white flotillas.
In the midst of the sad and monotonous
plain, the road, scarcely marked by the
wheels of the vehicles, rolled away as far
as the eye could reach, animated only by the
rapid passage Of a troika drawn by three
draught horses, with grayish white hair,
belonging TO that small and strong Siberian
race similar to that of Corsica.
The troika went the faster as it carried
but single traveller, whose light baggage
consisted of a leather valise.
This traveller was Yegor Semenoff
Since he had breathed anew the free air,
since he had again found sunlight and verdi
ure, a resurrection had taken place in him.
He no longer bent and his eyes had recover
ed their brightness. With glance lost in
the vague wilderness of the horizon, be
thought of the past and was not frightened
by the future
The remembrances of his childhood now
thronged about him, like Joyous and
laughing cOrtege amid the sad and silent
solitude.
He was no longer in Siberia, in exile, but
in that old manor where he was born and
which he never should have quilted He
ran with his sister beneath the trees of a
beautiful park, and on horseback secured
the open country with her. OH the happy
years. With what tenderness he remem-
bered theml What balls, what fctcs! He
again saw the parlors brilliantly illuminated,
the stairways full of servants, and the tor
races encumbered with the long trains of
the ladies, who had gathered from all the
lordly residences of the neighborhoOd.
One day. they danced longer than usual.
YcCOrs sister had just married a captain Of
the merchant marine of Riga; the wedding
had bean celebrated at the dwelling OF the
SemenofTs.
On the morrow, when his sister departed,
YegOr ran into the wood and wCDt. Six
months afterwards, he, in his turn, quilted
the paternal roof to become a student at the
University of Kieff.
There he found a second family in that Of
the poet Davidoff professor of Slavonic lit
erature at the university, and a second sis.
ter in the charming Nadege, the only daugh-
ter of the writer.
His dreamy thoughts, rocked by the pace
Of the horses, carried him back to that bless
ed family, to their hospitable dwelling,
where the youth of the university received
such a kindly welcome. Each evening, re-
unions took place, at which some literary
question was discussed, some one read
verses, or a musician improvised a moroccan
Or played airs from an unpublished opera.

cross roads whe"o a prison light reigns,
that the wrCocEcS, whom the clemency Of
Muscovite justice has drawn from the depths
of the mines, where they were slowly dying,
dwell.
Left to their own resources, the exiles
carry on small industries and low-grade
trades to obtain livelihood. Former gen.
erals become ioiners or shoemakers, jour
nalists sink into wigmakers, and doctors
of law into merchants of dbelline marten
fur.
Yegor, as he passed through this quarter
OF misfortune and poverty, attentively ex-
amined each door and window, hoping to see
arise there the graceful head of Nadege,
with its aureole of faxen hair. But the
troika stopped before one of the last huts OF
the suburb without the young mans hopes
being realized.
sit is here, =" said the coachman, 'that my
master babe me conduct you"
And he aided Yegor Semenoff in carrying
his valise into the cabin. Then, he returned
to the troika and disappeared.
