get that we ever knew any other life. Comc r come P She still was dumb. ‘Speak, Barbara, speak to me, Tell me that you will come with me. Tell me that you will be my guiding angel in this world. I cannot go back to the woman I abhor, I will not I Oh, pity me, darling !’ ‘Heaven forgive you/ she said at last, in a broken voice. ‘You are sorely tempted. Heaven forgive you, and strengthen me, for I will never, never go with you/ He stared up at her incredulously for an instant. Then a sudden revul sion of feeling came over him. He buried his face in his hands, while strong convulsions shook his frame. T was mad/* he moaned, staggering to his feet at last, ‘mad with misery and pain. Forgive me, darling, I know you are right. You have saved us both. Good-bye. Heaven bless and keep you/ He strained her to his heart once again, then slowly released her and strode away, not trusting himself to take a single backward glance. Barbara stood w r here he had left her, with both hands clasped over her heart. Presently a woman’s figure rose up from the rocks to the left, and came gliding towards her. It v.ft Mrs. Thornton! ‘Ha 1 ha!’ shrieked the maddened woman, with a shrill laugh. ‘Vile temptress, you’ve kept your last ap pointment with that man! I have risen from a sick be.d to watch you both.— And now your life shall pay the forfeit of your guilty love/ She came rushing onward like some winged fury, her reckless leet dashing close to the verge of the precipice, or skimming carelessly over the jagged rocks. Nearer, nearer she came—her wild hair swept backward from her thin, tigerish face, her eyes glowing. Barbara watched her as if spell bound,, bereft of all power to fly. Nearer and nearer came the frantic woman. Of a sudden when scarcely half a dozen yards away, she ilung up both her arms wildly, uttered a pierc ing shriek, and dropped from sight. Her foot had slipped, and she had fallen over the precipice upon the bristling rocks a hundred feet below. Was it Heaven’s vengeance on the would-be murderess ? When the solemn funeral rite was over 1 hornton and Barbara met for a few moments in the presence of Brun denel, merely to say good-bye to eacli other. Then Thornton fell in his old • habit of roving. Barbara heard no word from him for a twelve-month. When the year was ended, one beau tiful September night, lie again made his appearance at Brundenel House, grave and older looking, but more fas cinating than ever. ‘We have both suffered, both been severely tried/ he said. ‘But I love you to-day more fondly than ever be fore, and my love has been purified; the lesson has humbled me. Can you forget and forgive the past and trust your future to my keeping ?’ Who does not guess her answer ? She loved hiin r and love, like charity, covers a multitude of sins. Brundenel was reconciled to the eourse events had taken. Indeed he had suspected how it would end from the first. He still lives with Barbara and Thornton in that house on the headlands, a warm friend to them both. A pathetic incident occured during the floods at Binghampton. A Mrs. Fox, residing near the cemetery gate, heard, in the morning, a peculiar moaning in the direction of the ceme tery. Going there she found a little child waist-deep in the water and weeping near a headstone, which marked a lonely grave. Upon being questioned she said that she lived a long way off. She had heard that the graves were covered by water, and she feared that her mother’s would be washed away. So she went to keep her poor watch and ward beside it.— She was kindly caredjfor, and returned to her motherless home. An Alabama paper says of a re cently elected member of the Legisla ture that he has already shown his de votion to the State by nine years’ gra tuitous service in the State peniten tiary. A jury after being charged in the usual way by the judge, retired to their room, when a brother white juror ventured to ask a colored associate if he understood the charge of the judge. Golly! exclaimed the astonished nig, he don’t charge us nuftin for dat, does he ? I thought we was gwine to git pay.” Kailroads. Macon & Brunswick RAILROAD COMPANY.
