THE WAY OF IT.
This is the way of it, wide world over;
One is beloved, and one is the lover;
One gives, and the other receives.
One lavishes all in a wild emotion,
One off el's a smile for a life's devotion;
One hopes ntni the other believes.
One lies awake in the night to weep,
And the other drifts into a sweet sound sleep.
One soul is aflame with a god like passion,
One plays with love in an idler’s fashion,
One speaks, and the other hears.
One sobs. "1 love you.” and wet eyes show it,
And one laughs lightly and says, "1 know it,"
With smiles for the other's tears.
One lives for another and nothing beside,
nd the other remembers the world, is wide.
Tins is the way of it, sad earth over;
Tile heart that breaks is the heart of the lover,
Vnd the other learns to forget.
For what is the use of endless sorrow?
Though the sun goes down, it will rise to-mor
row.
And life is not over yet.
Oh! I know this truth, if I know no other,
That Passionate Love is Pain's own mother.

CHAITER XI.
Dobbs went on his way whistling a Scotch
air, and much like a farmer he looked.
He proceeded to Timmy’s house and,
stepping upon the porch, knocked at the
door.
It was far past daylight and the family
was astir. Timmy opened the door and in
vited the stranger to enter.
Dobbs had boon there several times before,
but each time in such different disguises that
Timmy never recognized him. Sir Arthur
had not told him that Dobbs was a detec
tive lest he should, in an unguarded moment,
disclose something to Mag, and he feared her
more than any one else.
Mag had never seemed to mind Nora's ab
sence, and the young Englishman thought
he noticed a look of exultation as day after
day passed away without her daughter’s re
turn.
The stranger asked for “Mr. Beaconsfield”
—no one in the locality knew as yet Sir
Arthur’s rank —and was ushered into his
room.
The young man had just thrown himself
on the bed and was trying to snatch a few
moment’s rest; he was still weak from his
recent illness, and his anxiety and grief for
the loss of his betrothed had robbed him of
his needful rest.
As the detective entered the young man
sprang from the bed and, rushing to Dobbs,
grasped his hand and looking into his face
with eagernessiexelaimed:
"What news, my friend F’
“bit down, young man, sit down!” replied
the man, coolly; “if you are not careful you
will make yourself ill again, and then we
will be further off the track than ever.”
Sir Arthur seated himself and the detec
tive beside hint.
“Well, sir,” said Dobbs, “I am happy to
wiy I have news and good news, too, but be
fore I tell you I want you to calm down a
little."
Dobbs took from his pocket a flask, and
pouring out a small quantity of liquor hand
ed it to Sir Arthur.
“Here, young roan, drink this to calm your
nerves a lit tipi’
Sir Arthureaoquiesod and drank it, and
as soon as Dobbs saw he was sufficiently cool
to hear the joyful news related his adven
tures and discoveries.
Some of Dobbs’ doings at Barney’s Sir
Arthur already knew, so the detective told
him of the adventures of the evening pre
vious and how he had discovered Nora.
"Now, sir, we have a plan for to-night,
and you must make some excuse to the old
woman and be ready,” said Dobbs.
“Never fear, I will have all prepared,” re
plied Sir Arthur.
“But not a word to the old man, remem
ber!—he might blurt out something before
the old woman, and she is the one I am most
afraid of.”
"I am as much afraid of her as you are,
and for that reason have said nothing,” re
plied young Beaconsfield.
"My other hair’—as Dobbs often called
his twin brother—“is working at Barney’s;
lit has managed to intercept’a letter sent
him from the borders, and through it he has
discovered the name of an accomplice. This
accomplice has been quietly arrested, and
has not only confessed that Barney and Du
vanee are smugglers, but have also been im
plicated in several murders, and the fellow
has offered to turn State's evidence to save
his own neck. Good, isn’t it?” exclaimed
Dobbs, rubbing his hands with glee.
"Yes, the prospects look brighter. But to
think of my darling being in such hands as
that!” exclaimed Sir Arthur,sorrowfully.
"Well, sir, ‘it's an ill wind that blows no
good,’ and this will be the means of clean
ing tlie United States of as great a band of
rascals as ever lived,” replied Dobbs.
"What do we propose to do?” asked Sir
Arthur.
"By this time my brother lias secured all
Duvanee’s effects, and to-night part of a
company of officers that I have had secretly
brought from Albany will go quietly to
Barney’s. The other half will move toward
the hut in the woods. Duvanee goes there
about midnight, and we will go a round
about way so as to take him by surprise. I
want you to lx? in readiness by the road with
a carriage for the young lady while we se
cure the Frenchman.”
Bir Arthur nodded assent.
"Barney’s will be most difficult,” resumed
Dobbs; “I think he will show tight, but I
"ill be there in time to give Duvanee enough
to send him home too tired to keep awake,
and my brother will have the officers in the
barroom in citizens dross—the rest will be
comparatively little trouble.”
“Admirably arranged!” exclaimed the
young man, who already in imagination had
A ora clasped in loving embrace once more.
‘I wish I could get some word to Nora.”
The detective thought a moment and ex
claimed:
“Bo you can.”
“How?”
Write her a note and give it to me and I
"■ill find a way to get it to her. Trust mo
for that |”
“Dobbs, you are the beat friend I evor
hwl " exclaimed Sir Arthur, joyfully.
Bir Arthur wrote a few lines, as we have
seen before, mid handed the note to Dobbs,
Mid giving him some gold, shook him heart
ily by the band, praying aim to do all he
could to restore his beloved ono to him once
more.
1 his the detective promised to do, and
concealing the note left.
"lag looked somewhat suspiciously as tho
man left the house, but he looked so much
, ' an honest farmer that sho merely nodd
ed and thought nothing of the early visitor.
CHAPTER XII.
The other Martin Dobbs, or tho Martin
, as Barney and liis crew supposed him
drank anil sang until nearly daylight,
"h. u lie wius-eurriod dead drunk to bed
As fortune would have it and as Martin
thought most lucky, the room he occupied
w as next to Puvanee’s.
As soon os he was left alone Dobbs raised
head nnd lookod around to see that all
was safely quiet.
'h* quick car had caught the sound of the
■'■'■•sling footstep* of the men who had
“ ne him thither, and Barney ho knew wus
■looping .soundly.
quietly to the room generally oc
upi<*l by Duvaneo, Dobbs unlocked it with
■■keleton key and entered. Ho went di-
L* ct| y to the trunk and, although the lock
one of j ocuiiar oonatructiou, opened that
also, and abstracting every paper he could
find in the metal box ami a few others lying
loose in the trunk, closed both and returned
to his own room, leaving all, to all appear
ances, as he had found them.
He seated himself on a chair ar.d exam
ined the papers carefully and with a feeling
and exclamation of exultation as he found
they contained what he wished, dropped
noiselessly from the window to the ground
beneath and wended his way in a circuitous
direction through the forest.
Going to the tree where his brother had
so transformed himself that same morning,
he raised a large stone and entering a cav
ern waited.
He had not been there many minutes be
fore his brother appeared, and a long con
sultation took place.
! Ihe papers were read and found to con
tain evidence enough to give both Duvaueo
and Barney to the hangman as smugglers
and murderers.
Again transforming themselves by new
disguises they made their way to tho village
until evening.
How Dobbs managed to get the note to
Is ora we have heard.
After eating her supper Nora retired to
rest as if much fatigued, and ere long Nell
was snoring soundly on the lounge.
But Nora did not'expect to sleep; her heart
told hor that the time of her deliverance
was drawing rapidly near, and her heart
beat with rapid pulsations so anxious and
eager was she to behold the faces of her
loved one once more.
At midnight, as usual, Duvanee entered be
low, and was soon sleeping oil his customary
intoxication.
Nora was waiting with eager expectation
and bated breath for a signal from with
out.
She did not wait long before she heard the
hooting of an owl close by her window; she
had often heard the same dismal sound
while in her forest prison, but there was a
peculiarity in this sound which to her anx
ious ear sounded like a warning.
Arising from her couch sho approached
the window softly so as not to awaken her
jailor, whose snores were most profound,
owing to the extra draught of gin she had
taken while down stairs and which Duvanee
had given her in his delight when she had
told him of the change in her captive's
manner.
When Nora reached the window to her
surprise the wooden liars had been removed
—how she could not conjecture; but to
Dobbs it had been easy work, the sharp tools
he carried with him speedily cut through
the wood without a sound.
“Hist, lady!” said a voice, softly; “don’t
be afraid —just step out of the window and
I’ll help you.”
Trembling, but anxious to escape, she did
as requested, and in an instant an arm was
thrown around her waist, and before she
could realize where sho was she found her
self hurried down a ladder, and the next
moment she was ini her lover’s arms.
“O Arthur I” was all she could say, so
great was her joy.
“My darling! my darling!” whispered the
young man, clasping her to his breast and
covering her sweet face with kisses.
He carried her to the waiting carriage al
most fainting with joy at her escape, and
half frightened lest she should be captured
again.
As soon as Nora was safely away Dobbs
gave another signal, and men sprang from
the covering of the bushes. It was but tho
work of an instant to break in the doors of
the house, and the capture of Duvanee was
made with little resistance —ho was so stupe
fied from tho effects of liquor that he aid
not realize the situation.
Nell made more fuss, but she too was soon
secured and hurried with Duvanee to the
wagon awaiting them, and liefore daylight
they were lodged in the village jail.
As luck would have it there wore not
many frequenters at Barney's, Dobbs and
three chums besides two or three roughs be
ing all.
The roughs soon left, and when they
were gone Dobbs stepped up to Barney and
said:
“I arrest you for murder and smuggling.”
Barney, seeing through the game that had
been played, drew a revolver, but before it
could be used one of Dobbs’ par
ty, or one of tho officers of the
law, knocked it out of his hands, and in
an instant Barney was secured and also his
wife. Placing the tavern in the care of two
officers, Dobbs and the others departed with
his prisoners.
The den in the woods was now broken up,
and also one of the most troublesome bands
of smugglers in the United States.
CHAPTER XIII.
Dawn had just commenced to over
spread the earth with its gray light, and tho
rosy rays in the east foretold the approach
of the god of the day in all his splendor
when Nora returned to her home.
Kir Arthur had not withdrawal his arms
from his recovered treasure since he had
first clasped her in them lest he should again
lose her—he felt as if the weight of years
had been lifted from him since he knew he
had her safely by his side once more—all his
own and no one else to interfere. He deter
mined to make her his own at once so he
could protect her sweet young-beauty from
other covetous eyes.
Early as it was when the carriage drove
up in front of the house, Timmy was seated
in his usual place on the porch smoking his
Vora saw tho dear old form more bent
with age, and the care-worn, troubled face—
before Arthur could prevent her she rushed
to the old mau with a glad cry.
Timmy quickly realized the reality of
what at first seemed a dream and sobbed
like a child over his daughter, while Nora
patted the old man’s cheek and kissed him
over and over again.
“Are you so very glad to see me, rladdy?”
cried she, looking fondly into the weather
beaten, care-worn face.
“Glad, my child? Glad hain’t no name
fur it! Yer poor old daddy’s heart was
most broken,” answered Timmy, the smiles
breaking through the tears like the rays of
the sun through an April shower.
“Where have ye been, little gal? tell yer
old daddy all about it.”
Nora related to him tho story of her cap
ture and incarceration, and how Duvanee
had tried to make her lieliovo that her father
had put her there to keep her from her
lover. _
“Tho wretch!” exclaimed Timmy, “if I
had him here I would tear out his lyin’
French tongue!” the old man’s eyes flashed
with anger at the bare idea of him shutting
his daughter up.
Timmy, when he heard how the young
Englishman had labored for the release of
Nora, grasped him by tho hand, and with
tears in his eyes exclaimed:
“0, sir, how can I ever thank you! How
can i’repay ye fur what ye hcvdone!”
“No need for thanks,” replied the young
man; “my motives were selfish ones en
tirely.”
While speaking Sir Arthur gazed fondly
at the sweet young girl so soon to lie entire
ly his own, . , . . . .
Timmy blew hiR nose vigorously and tried
to laugh, but there was a wistful earnestness
in his eyes that told of the struggle within
at the prospect of again losing his beautiful
daughter; but his sorrow was of a different
kina from that ho experienced while Nora’s
fate was not known. Now he felt sure that
ho was putting her into good keeping when
she became Sir Arthur’s wife;he knew thut
a man who had worked so unselfishly to res
cue Nora, and who hod spared neither trou
bio nor expense to restore her to her loved
onos would guard his darling carefully.
Mag received her daughter with some sur
prise, and sho evidently looked relieved as
Nora kissed her affectionately; hermanner
was softened toward the young girl, and she
often looked at her wistfully as if the affec
tion she had so long concealed had at last
commenced to show itself.
Kir Arthur insisted on a speedy marriage,
and never did the village chapel eontnin so
lovely a bride or so handsome a groom.
The soft white lace and glistening satin
made Nora appear too pure for earth—and
so the aged rector thought as he spake the
words that made these two one.
Timmy and Mag looked like new people—

in rustling black silk, all gifts from Sir
Arthur.
Sir Arthur and Nora were now man and
wife, and naught but the hand of God could
separate them—the thought was one of su
preme happiness to both.
Ah! how much had they both to suffer for
their love, as many, many true hearts do
have anguish whore naught should- bo but
bliss.
CHAPTER XIV.
Duvanee, when he realized his true posi
tion, knew that there was no choice between
death bv his own hand and the gallows, and
rather than suffer the ignominy of capital
punishment he chose to rush unbidden into
the presence of his Maker —he was found
dead in his cell, having cut an artery and
bled to death.
The Frenchman left a written confession,
stating that he was the son of a younger
brother of Lord Dudly, of England. His
father had always been noted for his wild,
dissipated habits, and leaving the unwel
come restraints of home he had made his
residence in the French capital, where ho
. had married a French ballet dancer.
Duvanee or Dudly, as he was rightfully
called, was the only offspring of that mar
riage.
After the death of his parents his haunts
had been with the vilest.
Fearing that his uncle, Lord Dudly, would
marry again, and seeing tho wonderful re
semblance of Nora to his deceased aunt, he
had concocted a scheme to marry her and
present ter to Lord Dudly as his daughter,
and so secure the title and estates for him
self.
But his plans failod and ho was soon
brought liefore tho groat Judge to expiate
his sms.
Barney paid the penalty of his crimes on
the scaffold, while his wife was imprisoned
for life as a participator in his wrong do
ings.
Nell was only supposed to be a paid hire
ling of Barney and Duvanee, and as no posi
tive proof could be found against her she was
only imprisoned for a few months for her
share in the imprisonment and abduction of
Nora and disappeared from view.
“Dobbs and Dobbs,” as the twin brother
detectives were called, received the govern
ment reward for the capture of their pris
oners and were also bountifully remunerated
by Sir Arthnr.
Sir Arthur sent Romeo home to England,
and prepared to leave his American home
where so much had happened of “wcel and
woe” to him.
Nora, although she loved her young hus
band dearly, felt sad indeed as she rolled
herself in traveling attire to leave the only
home she had ever known.
She knew Timmy would miss her sadly—
he had always been so tenderly careful of
her.
Her mother had commenced to show so
much solicitude for her welfare that she felt
a sense of loss at the idea of parting.
Before Nora stepped into the carriage to
travel to new countries Mag called her into
her room and embraced her with a long, lov
ing clasp.
“Nora, girleen, I’ve been a hard mother
to ye; but some day when ye hear what may
seem strange to yer ears don’t hate ver old
mother, will ye, child!” pleaded Mag, the
tears streaming from her eyes.
“Mother, I have always ioved you!” cried
the affectionate girl, distressed at this un
usual display of feeling in her mother.
“What! when I treated ye so wicked!” ox -
claimed Mag, in bewilderment.
“Yes, mother.”
“Heaven bless ye, child! you’ve softened
yer old mother’s heart. There are brighter
days in store fur ye, darter —when yer old
mother kin do her duty toward ye ye’ll
know.”
Nora smoothed and kissed the wrinkled
cheek as if it had been the softest and fairest
that her young heart had so often longed for
in a mother.
Mag handed her a fine gold chain with u
small, richly-chased locket attached.
“Take this, child,” said she, “and wear it
night and day—it may be the means of
bringing ye much good some day—but do
not open it until you are far away from
here.”
Nora took the trinket in her shapely hand
and examined it with curiosity. The chain
was a peculiar one of intricate workman
ship, and the locket had the initials “N.
D.” on the back. She was curious to seethe
contents, but, obeying her mother’s request,
she clasped the chain around her neck, anti
concealing it under her dress hid it from
view until she could safely open it.
Nora kissed her mother again, and, after
an affecting leave-taking of Timmy, was
handed into the carriage by Hir Arthur and
driven away to North river, where they were
to take the cars for New York.
CHAPTER XV.
She was a winsome lass, brown as a nut
with large, luminous dark eyes that twinkled
with joyous mirth or deepened with feel
ing.
The youthful cheek was painted with
colors that wero taken alone from nature’s
garden.
Rather below tho usual height, with a
figure round and plump and Beautifully
formed.
Lady Betty was the life of her father’s
house, and indeed its head —for mother she
had none, and her father’s easy, affectionate
disposition she ruled with the sweetest of all
control—love.
Lord Ernst almost worshipped his “nut
brown maid,” as he called Betty, and Earl
Beaconsfield called her “Brown Betty.”
Since her betrothal with Sir Arthur, or
rather that arranged by their fathers, Lady
Betty’s face wore a look of wistful tender
ness that gave it new beauty.
“My daughter,”said Lord" Ernst, one love
ly day as they were sitting in a beautiful
rustic arbor together -Lady Betty hud been
reading Cowper, while her fattier had
thrown bis arm tenderly around her and
listening to the musical voice of the sweet
reador—“my daughter, do you think you
love this young man sufficiently to give him
your own precious self for life?”
Tho maiden looked up into her father’s
face, and then blushing prettily dropped her
eyes in confusion.
“Why, yes, papa, I think I do. You
know Arthur anti myself have grown up
together and he is so good, and I have met no
other that I like better.” replied Botty.
“Yes, there is the trouble—‘you have met
no other.’ I regret, my child, that I have
been so selfish us to keep you so entirely to
myself. I should have let you see more of
the world and you would then have a Ixitter
chance to understand your own heart.”
“Why, papa!” exclaimed Betty, in sur
prise.
“You are surprised, my love, but mar
riage is such a serious thing—it is not for a
day or an hour that you have you/- com
panion, but perhaps for a life, and if the
life hnppeus to be long and the parties un
congenial, I know no fate more terrible.”
“Yes, papa, I know. But then Arthur is
too good to over lie unkind, and I am sure I
love him too much ever to give him cause to
be annoyed by me.”
“True, my dear. But you ore not mar
ried yet, and I intend that you shall travel
some and see more of the world ere you bind
yourself irrevocably."
“Papa, how kind you arc—but I do not
think I will regret my marriage.”
“I hope not, daughter, as I ao not. know
of a better alliance in England, hut I would
rather lose, the chance, fluttering though It
is, than see you unhappily mated.”
Lord Ernst drew his daughter Into his
arms and kissed her tenderly.
A servant approached and annonneed
that the Fuel and Countess were in the
drawingroom.
Lord Ernst and Lady Hetty hastened to
receive their guests with pleasant anticipa
tions.
Tho greeting between tho Earl and Lord
Ernst was most cordial, but that between
the Countess and Lady Hetty—how can I
describe?
Tho Countess folded tho young girl ten
derly in her arms and kissed the sweet face
raised to her’s so lovingly.
“My daughter!” murmured tho Countess,
"how I have longed for a daughter, und now
I am to have rr.e. ”
"Mamma!” saifl Betty, trembling with the
rapture that filled her as she spoke the dear
hut unfamiliar name to her, “mamma, I
will love you dearly;oh, so much!”
“And this is my brown Betty,” said the
Earl, pinching her cheek, making her blush
more violently than ever.
Iguly Betty gave him her hand and looked
at him saucily, her black eyes full of mis
chief.
“Your hand! Is that all?” said the Earl,
surveying her from head to foot as if in
dignant. “Ernst,” turning to her father,
“fgreet this brown Betty and she only gives
me her hand —she kissed my wife, why
shouldn’t she do the same by me? Com
mand her, 1 insist, to do her duty whilst
you have the authority—when Arthur gets
her he will tell her what to do.”
All laughed at this speech, and Betty lift
ed her now more than rosy cheek for his
kiss.
Lady Betty carried the Countess otT to
the conservatory where they spent a pleas
ant hour chatting over the beautiful (lowers
—and then the lady mother must tell of her
boy so soon to belong to them both —Lady
Betty listened with delight and interest.
Blit not a word of Nora or her misfor
tunes—it was not fitting that high-born lips
should mention the name of the poor Amer
ican girl of plebeian birth.
An affectionate “adieu” and the Earl and
Countess departed, delighted with their new
daughter and promising that they would see
her often.
On their way homo they stopped for a
short call on Lord Dudly.
He was at home and" greeted them with
undisguised pleasure.
Lord Dudfy was most anxious in his in
quiry after Sir Arthur.
He had just received word of the death of
his realative, but no mention had been made
of the sweet lass of the American Adiron
daeks.
The Countess, when a fitting opportunity
offered, showed Lord Dudly her son's last
two letters with the story of the abduction
of the young girl.
After ho had read the epistles she pre
sented the sketch of Nora with fear and
trembling lest she would by so doing reopen
the old wound of the heart..
He gazed at the drawing long and earn
estly, and comparing it with a painting
hanging on the wall exclaimed:
“How like! strange, most strange!”
“It certainly is a resemblance, Dudly,”
said the Earl, taking the picture and com
paring it with the (tortrait.
“Yes, I cannot account for it—if ourchild
had not been buried with its mother I
should be sure that this belonged to us,” re
plied Lord Dudly, with much emotion.
“Her namthis like your wife's also,” said
the Countess.
"Yes, I asked the people to name their
child ‘Nora,’ as it was born the same night
as ours; but I feel a great longing to see this
American mountain maiden, who so closely
resembles my dear wife.”
“Ah!” said the Earl; “but will it not re
vive unnecessary grief?”
“I think not—if she is as lovely in char
acter as she is in person I should love to
know her for my sweet wife’s sake.”
The Earl and Countess bade “good-by,”
leaving Lord Dudly sorrowful and chagrined
at the rascality ol his relative, and think
ing of this strange resemblance of Nora to
his lamented wife.

STOCKINGS.
The High Prices Which Fine Hosiery
Commands.
New York, July 9. — I wish I could stand
a few of our great grandmothers in front of
a certain window on Broadway devoted
exclusively to hosiery. Such marvels!
They are real works of art. Imagine a
scarlet silk stocking with a black-beaded
serpent twisting around its entire length,
with the reptile’s head resting on the instep!
Another puir of light blue, with piuk moss
rosebuds embroidered all over; yellow silk
hose with butterflies of natural size in oil
the colors of the ruinbow; white silk hose,
with beaded stare, and those of black silk
with the instep composed of the richest
white lace; a puir of pale green hose with
simulated piuk ribbon bows up the front.
Yes. 1 would like to show all these wonders
to the deal - old ladies, who thought they
were well suppliod in winter with throe or
four pairs of gray woolen stockings of their
own knitting, and in summer a half dozen
pairs of plain white ones with a woven red
band at the top. Indeed wo have only to go
back to our own childhood for this last style
with a pair of “ojien works” for Sundays.
There were handsome black silk hose with
red lobsters embroidered on the instep,
while others had a big green frog with “bead
eyes, with his opera hat on, all reaely to go
a-wooing.” We do not lack for novelty
and the workmanship is exquisite, but for
myself I prefer something more sentimental
than these last, even in hosiery. I draw the
line at lobsters. Since the washable knitting
silk have been manufactured many young
ladies have revived an almost “lost* art,”
that of knitting their own stockings. It is
pretty and convenient fancy work. They
wear better than those made by machinery
and are much loss expensive. Some of those
I have described cost sgo per pair. 1 know
a young lady who has just completed a pair
of black silk stockings embroidered with
pink rosebuds. They are durable enough to
last a lifetime.
