Really, it is quite impossible that you should refuse to give this gentleman a heating." The speaker was Mr. Gardner, the old lawyer and friend already mentioned, and ho tilladed to Alan Morton, who was sitting iu Henry Seton’s drawing-room, waiting till he should be listened to, with a look of quiet resolution on his handsome face. Helen was in the room too, standing tear fully in the deep alcove of the window, almost hidden by the curtains. “Mr. Seton will, I think, hardly feel justified in continuing to refuse his consent to my marriage with his ward,” urged Alan, addressing himself to the lawyer, “when I mention that I bad her father’s consent to the engagement. Nothing hut the dangerous illness of n sister who resides abroad would have kept me from hastening to England on hearing of Miss Seton's bereavement.” “Circumstances are changed," put in Henry, with considerable irritation of man ner ; “I refuse my consent.” “Hush, hush, my dear sir,’’ interposed the lawyer, trying to keep the peace ; "let us hear what Mr, Morton’s proposals are. We lawyers, you know.” turning to Alan with an attempt at a joke, “are obliged to have an eye to pounds, shillings, and penee. Have yon any objection to give me, as Mr. Seton’s friend, some idea ot your means J” "They are little enough, I own,” replied Alan, frankly ; "hut it seems to me that, under the circumstances, it is only for Miss Setqn and me to decide whether they are sufficient. If I had not been obliged to leave England Mr. Seton would have al lowed me to marry his daughter at once, yet at that time it was thought, I know, that she was likely to have a considerable fortune.” Alan Morten, as he said the last words, happened to glance towards Henry Seton, and noticed with surprise the blood mount to his forehead. "Yes, yes,” answered the lawyer, think ing that by talking the matter over lie should give Henry time to recover his tem per, which had seemed to be on the point of failing; “it was thought that Miss Seton would be rich, but unfortunately her father died without having made any provision for her.” A suspicion entered Alan Morton's head that Henry Seton was concealing from him the true state of Helen’s affairs, which Mr. Gardner might not know, in order to in duce him to resign her before she should be of age to act for herself. Therefore he pursued the subject. “I understood,” he said, turning pointed ly to the lawyer, yet keeping an eye on Henry, "that there was some money likely to come to Miss Seton by settlement. Can you tell me what can have given rise to the idea ?” "It was a very natural idea,” replied Mr. Gardner ; "indeed I believe that Mr. Setou almost shared in it himself, for he always had a fancy that he should survive hie hrother. I can explain tho oirouni stances to you in a moment. Mr. Seton, I am sure you will have no objection to my doingso ?” He looked towards Henry, who muttered very surlily, “Say what you please,” and began nervously to put some paper together on the writing-table. “Well,” resumed the lawyer, "I need not make a long story of it. The simple fact is, that Miss Seton would have been not only well off, but wealthy had her father lived a few hours longer. He and his brother, Captain Seton, died the same day, but Miss Seton’s father died at eleven in the morning, and Captain Seton not till two in the afternoon; therefore, by a singular provision of the will under which they inherited, his son, as heir to the sur vivor, succeeded to the property.” What ailed Alan Morton ? Tho color flashed into his face ; he rose and stood, still addressing the lawyer, but with bis face turned towards Henry. “May I inquire," he asked, "on wiiat day Captain and Mr. Seton died ? ” Henry turned upon him in a frenzy of ungovernable passion. "Leave ray room, sir, instantly, if you don’t wish to be kicked out of it. Good heavens ! do yon think I am going to sub mit to the insolence of a confounded med dling scoundrel like you ?” "Stay, sir, stay,” interposed tho lawyer, laying his hand on Henry’s arm, and per fectly aghast at this uncalled-for burst; "there is no insolence in the case. Under the circumstances there is no wonder that Mr. Morton should wish to hear the par ticulars. Mr. Seton died, sir, at eleven o'clock in the morning of tho 15th of October, and—” “And I saw Captain Seton lying dead at six in the morning of that same 15th.” There was dead silence in the room. The lawyer fixed his keen eyes on Henry, whose face had turned a yellowish livid white. Helen had stolen from her retreat at the sound of her cousin’s angry voice, and now stood hy the chair from which her lover had just risen. Henry turned upon her fiercely. ‘•How dared yon not to tell me this ?” “Tell you what?” said Helen’s gentle voice. "There was nothing to tell, for Alan did not see my uncle alive ; besides I could not speak to yon about his letters.” Alan continued steadily : —“I arrived at K on the morning of the 15th Octo ber, in the course of a walking trip of two or three days. I was just passing the inn, when I heard my name called, and saw my old school and college friend, Edward Wil son, at a window. He was in n room on the ground floor; and in the same room, on a bed, was Captain Seton's body. Wil son told me he had died at two in the morning, and I saw him lying there with my own eyes at six. I wanted lo remain with Wilson, but he would not hear of it. He persuaded me that be wanted no help, and reproached himself with having allowed me to risk infection by coming in. So I left the way I had entered, without seeing anyone but him. I saw his doath nfter wards in the paper, and regretted bitterly that I had not stayed with hitn ; but ns to the tirno of Captain Seton's death there is not the slightest doubt about it.” Another dead silence ; Helen’s soft tones broko it. “There must bo some mistake,” she said approaching her cousin with her old gentle manner, all anger having given way to pity nt the sight of his ghastly face. "Henry—Oh. Henry, aroyon ill ?’’ “Miss Seton, you had better lcavo us for tho present,” said tho old lawyer, sternly. "I fear there is room for some painful sub- AUGUSTA, GA, SUNDAY MORNING, MARCH 8, 1868. pioions regarding Mr. Seton’s conduct. At any rate, the matter mutt be investi gated. I shall start for K myself to morrow. to make the necessary inquiries.” A kind of gurgle startled them. Hepry was standing with his two hands" pressed against his brow as if to keep his senses. He strove to speak, but something seemed to choke him, and his words were hardly articulate; yet ho forced them out anil they stood still to listen. “There is no need ; it is true ! I altered the letter. Not for the fortuno; it was to win Helen, but—oh, my God! What is this?” Ho staggered, and his eyes closed. Helen turned white; the lawyer and Alan Morton sprang forward, but before they were able to reach him, Henry Seton had fallen to the ground at their feet, stricken with paralysis. * • • • The sequel is soon told. Helen is happy. She and Alan Morton have sold the old family plaoe, where the change of owner ship must liavo been known and comment ed upon, and have settled in a distant part of England, within easy reach, but out ot sight, of the sea. Two tiny children play round their fire-side ; besides these, their home has another occupant. Whose casy chair is that drawn up in winter to the warmest nook by the hearth? Who is the invalid, a young man still, but with wasted limbs and drawn features, who on summer days can just crawl down the terrace steps and sit basking in sunny spots ? He brings a book sometimes, hut his mind is weak, and he likes best to play with the children, and, tell them long rambling stories, which are their chief delight. But when they read him stories in return, they notice that if there is any mention of a lonely pool or pond, their playfellow's face changes; it seems to strike a paiiiful chord in his memory; lie grows gloomy and sends them away. They have learnt to pass over such passages in their little books. See! there comes Helen and her hus band ; how handsome ho is! and how lovingly she leans upon his arm, and looks up at him with her soft, trusting eyes. They join the invalid, and Alan makes him lean on him. while Helen walks on the other side. He brightens up a little and ilmnks'them and they speak cheerily to him, but he soou relapses into melancholy. Thus it has boon for years ; thus it will be to the end of the life of this wreck of what once was the calm, keen, clear-sighted Henry Seton. PERRY DAVIS’ VEGETABLE PAIN KILLER. WE BEG LEAVE TO CALL TIIE ATTEN TION of tho public to this long tested and unrivalled FAMILY MEDICINE. The PAIN KILLER is a purely vegetable compound ; and while it is a most officiant Rem edy for Pain, it is a perfectly safe medicine, evon in the most unskillful hands, for SUMMER COMPPAINT, or any other form of Bowel Disease in children or adults. It is an almost certain cure, and has, without doubt, been more successful in curing the various kinds of CHOLERA tban any other known remedy, or even the most skillful physician. In India, Africa and China, where this dreadful disease is over more or less prevalent, the PAIN KILLER is considered by the natives, as well as European residents in those climates, A SURE REMEDY. Asa Tonic for the Stomach, it is unrivalled. A few doses will relieve-severo cases of INDIGESTION, and it is often a perfect cure for DYSPEPSIA in its most aggravated forms. Its tonic and stimulating properties, arousing the system to vigorous action, render it a most effectual cure for COLDS AND COUGHS, whon used according to directions. For external application, it is unsurpassed by any medical preparation known. RHEUMATISM and Neuralgic Affections are quickly relieved and often cured by it. Any soreness in tho Muscles or Joints can be relieved by its applica tion. It cures instantly the most violent TOOTHACHE. It should always bo kept noar at hand, to be used in cases of severe BURNS OR SCALDS. If applied iuimediately, according to directions, it will give instant relief, and prevent blistering. It is peculiarly adapted to the wants of SEAMEN, and persons making sea voyages, and no vessel should sail without a supply of it. One captain writes us: “I have made several voyages—often with emigrants—and though I keep a good medicine chest, and have several times had a good doal of sickness on board, I have found the Pain Killer so efficient in all cases as to entirely preclude the use of all other medicines.” One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the sales have constantly increased, and wholly upon its own merits. The effect of the Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Congh, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dysentery, and other affections of the systmn, has been truly wonderful, and has won for Tt a name among the medical preparations that can never ho forgotten. Its success in re moving Pain, as an external romedy, in eases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Sting of Insects, and other causos of suffering, has se cured for it such a host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that it will bo handed down to posterity as ono of the greatest medical discoveries of the nineteenth century. The magical effects of the Pain Killer, when taken or used according to directions, are certain. You have only to be suro that you buy tho genuine articio and adhere to the directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medi cinal properties. The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is now put up in pannel bottles with the words Davis Vegetable Pain Killer blown in tho glass ; and with two 6teel engraved labels on each bottle— ono an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, the original inventor of tho modicine, tho othor a steel engraved note of hand—nono others can be relied upon as genuine. The Pain Killer is sold by Druggists and Grocers. PERRY DAVIS A SON, Proprietors, jalO—2m Ng. 74 High st., Providence, B I C. 11.
