CHAPTER II.

Deep in Lord Bayneham's heart
there fingered nalf leenng of regret
for Barbara. Not that he loved her;
he had never cared more for her than
he did at this present time. Her true
nobility of character struck him as it
had not done before. He could not
quite forget her Nords,--so true, so
free from all affectation, so full of
love for him. While they fingered
that day in his ears, he did not seek
Hilda.
Barbara Earle was not one who did
anything imperfectIy. The rest of
that day-the one on which she had
given her lover his freedom-was spent
in her own room. What it cost, no
one ever knew. Barbara shut herself
up with her so row, and spoke not a
word of it. The morning after, when
she came down to breakfast, there was
new beauty in her face, the beauty Of
calm. serene resolve; the storm had
passed over. and all outward trace of
it had disappeared.
We are going to Mr.. Seton's today,
aunt" she said to Lady Bayneham
You said two O'Clock, | think. Are
we to call for Lady Hutton?"
No" replied the countess, we are
to meet her at the studio hope Miss
fgutton's portrait will be a success;
she has an exquisite face; and. Bar
bara, rem nd me t',at we have to
call at Slorr and Mortimer's to see
about the resetting of the diamonds.
The Bayueham diamonds are consid-
cred amongst the finest in England;
you must wear them on your wedding
day"
Barbara smiled aud had Lady Bay
neham watched her attentively, she
would have seen the lips CULVER as
they smiled. Claud rose hastily; his
face flushed deeply. The countess,
serenely unconscious, continued her
remarks.
Il should like to have your portrait,
Barbara. Mr. Seton is one of the first
of living artists; we will speak to him
about it to-day. We shall be side by
side then in the great gallery"
Barbara made no reply She was
thinking of the fair young face that
would be next to that of the stately
lady before her. while she, Barbara
Earle. would never be portrayed AS
one of that race Claud walked I'M
easily up aud down the room. longing
to make an end of the painful scene.
but not Knowing how. At last, to his
intense delight. Lady Bayneham rose
and quilted the room, still serenely
unconscious of all wrong.
This is intolerable," he cried Bar
hara. | cannot forgive myself for allow
ing you to go through such scene.
My mother must be told at once
Barbara raised her clear dark eyes
to his face and though the warm tears
shone brightly In them. she smiled.
and said bravely 1t could not be
helped do not be yexed Claud. i
was wonderi. if diamonds looked well
with golden hair And that reminds
me that time is precious. Take a
cousins advice, and see Miss Hutton
to-day, We may still call at Storr and
Mortimer's, you know"
But, Barbara" said Claud gently,
Il think more Of you than you do
of yourself I cannot bear to think Of
love or happiness while you are"
He stopped abruptly not knowing
Qnite what 70 say.
While | am unhappy, you mean,
l suppose" said Barbara half haugh-
thy. yet with a smile of amusement.
How candid YOU are, Claud. Never
fear for me The past is all dead: its
ghost viii never haunt me. with an

That morning, when breakfast was
over, Lady Bayaeham said she had
some shopping to dos the carriage
was ordered. and Barbara invited to
join her; but Miss Earle said she had
another engagement, aud the countess
drove away alone.
Barbara waited in the drawing-room
until her cousin came in He looked
careworn and tired. as though no sleep
had visited him.
81 shall soon take that look from
his face" bought Barbara. though q.
trample upon my own heart in doing
so"
"Claud," sac said gently. IF yon
have nothing better to do will you
spend half an hour in the library
with me?"
Foor Barbara she saw a shadow
cross his face but he spoke kindly.
They went into the library. There
was silence for some minutes then

He waited wonder,ngly. for he saw
that her face was full OF deep emotion
Answer me truly, she said. what

Lord Dayneham did not know what
reply to make. He was prepared TO
marry his cousin, to be true and kind,
but he had nothing to say about love.
The vision of a sweet young face,
framed in bright golien hair. came
between him and tie noble woman by
his side.

who promised to raise force suffi-

maintain his empire. The church
party urged him to remain, promising
It's support, and he established his
headquarters at Queretaro. The
final tragedy soon came. At Queret-
arc he was surrounded by the Next
can republican army in the early part
of March, 1867. On May IA plans
were made for sortie by which the
emperor might escape to Mexico City
or the coast. Before such plans could
be carried out, Col. Miguel Lopez, IA
yorite of the emperor and empress,
who had received many favors from
them, informed the enemy of the plan
and arranged to let the enemy into the
imperial camp. Macmillan and his
generals were forced to surrender and
were soon tried by a military court.
The emperor was accused of treason,
usurpation CT public power, filibuster-
ing. trying to prolon~ the civil war

3. 1865. He was declared guilty and
sentenced to be shot, together With
Gen Miramion and Mejiia- The exc
cution took place on the morning of
June 10. 1867.
Both England and the United States
had protested against the execution of
Macmillan, but their protests had
been vain. In answer Juarez stated
that the sentence was a retaliation on
the emperor for having personally or

leaders who might lie caught. More

the members came to the conclusion
that it would be impossible to enforce
the 2-cent law and under these con-
