Ah! this great Cromwell! said Lady Jevery; but if he has the wily Mazarin at his disposal, why can he not find out something about that poor Lord Neville? Has Col. Ayrton returned, or is he also missing? He returned some time ago. He discovered nothing of importance. Then I suppose we shall see no more of Lord Neville. I am very sorry. He was a good youth, and he loved Jane Swaffham very honestly. A week after this evening the s were in their own house, and Matilda had sent word to Jane SwafTham that she wanted to see her. She opened her heart on various subjects to Jane, more especially on Anthony Lynns dramatic life and Heath, and the money and land he had left her. Of course," she said, it is only temporary. When the King comes home, Stephen will be Earl de Wick, and I shall willingly resign all to him. In the meantime I intend to carry out Anthonys plans for the improvement of the estate." When this subject half been tamed well over, Jane named cautiously the lover in France. Much to her surprise, Matilda seemed pleased to enlarge on the topic. She spoke herself of Prince Rupert, and of fhe poverty and suffering Charles Court were enduring, and she regretted with many strong expressions- Rupert's .presence there.

She intended to rob me and slay him for a thousand pounds, but under question of the law she confessed her crime. What do you think has happened to him? think robbery and murder. Someone has known, or suspected, that he had treasure with him. He has been followed and assassinated, or he has fought and been killed, and little Jane Swaffham is slowly dying of grief and cruel suspense. She loves him, and they were betrothed. There was a short silence, and then Matilda said: Many brave young lords have gone out from home and friends these past years, and never come back. Is Nevilles life worth more than my brothers life, than thousands of other lives? I trow not!

I have said to God, Do as thou wilt with me. I am content, and I have found light in sorrow, brighter than all the flaring lights of joy. Then you believe him to be dead? Yes. There is no help against such a conclusion, and yet, Matilda, there comes to me sometimes, such an instantaneous, penetrating sense of his presence, that I must believe he is not far away, and her confident hearts still fervor, her tremulous smile, her eyes like clear water full of the sky, affected Matilda with the same apprehending. And there was such a haunting sweetness about the chastened girl that Matilda looked round it was as if there were freshly gathered violets in the room.

An indefatigable student and an incorrigible questioner, he has an extraordinary knowledge of many and unlikely things. One day in Boston the bishop entered into conversation with a sailor on a street corner. He asked the man as is his wont questions about his life hjw old he was, what pay he got, whether he drank, and whether he was married. Then, getting technical, ha questioned the sailor about his work about sails and ropes and winds. Finally he said: Can you box the compass? Yes, sir, returned the sailor, and he boxed it. Now reverse it, said the bishop. Smiling, the sailor reversed it. Good, good," said Bishop Mallalieu, and he was about to depart. But the sailor detained him and began to ask questions in his turn. First they were personal questions regarding the bishop's age, salary and tastes; then they became technical questions, regarding the number of pages in the Bible, the shortest verse, the longest verse, and all those other things that to a sailor would seem necessary to a bishop's education. Mr. Mallalieu, smiling, replied to every question fully. Now, Eaid the seaman at the end, repeat the Lords prayer. This the bishop did. "Now reverse it. I'm afraid I cant. I reversed the compass, muttered the sailor in a reproachini voice. Boston Post. SHOULD HAVE CLIPPED WINGS. Wise and Profound Decision of a Glasgow Bailie. A story is told of a Glasgow bailie whose knowledge of natural history was limited. One day, while on the bench, the following ease came before him; A man who had a squirrel, on going to the country for a short time, left the squirrel in charge of a neighbor. The neighbor, when attending to the animal, accidentally left the door of its cage open, and, without being seen, it made its escape. , On his return, the owner of the squirrel was very angry at the man for his carelessness, and brought an action against him, demanding compensation for the loss of his pet. The bailie beard both parties, and then gave the following as his decision. He said to the neighbor: Noe doot ye did wrang to open the but turning the pursuer "ye was wrang, tae, for ye should have clippit the beasts wings. It's a duadruped, your honor! said the man.
