The air was clear and dry on the hill, al though the arista of uu autumn twilight were settling down on the busy little town in the valley below, and us Mrs. Hallett, from the terrace walk in the garden, watched a puff of whitesteam inthedistant landscapecoiue nearer and nearer, she said confidently, ' Charlie will be in that train; we shall have him at home with us this evening.” Hr. Uallett hud been un invalid for the last week or two; not ill enough to cause any alarm, yet not well enough to go to the city ns usual; and thankful that he bad a shrewd, sensible son, both able and willing to take his place. As is frequently the cose, business was at “. briskiat just as Mr. llallet became une qual to it, but Charlie ‘brew himself into the breach manfnlly, and had even slept in town for several nights, that he might sit later at his books and begin earlier. The mother would hare preferred to stay and watoh for her boy's coming; bnt Mr. Ballet was calling, and she went to him. He was surveying a doomed honeysuckle. It was but one of the many climbing plants trained over the walls, covering them with beauty, from the yellow jasmine of early Bpring, till the sweet white clematiB and late rose* were nipped by the autumn him, as he stood by his mother's coffin, that her or"'nary one; they hung together then.

That paper had never been fonnd. At first John Hallett'e feelings with re gard to it had been of angry surprise. He wns the elder bmiher, and had always re sided at the Copse.

And so years had rolled on without any one disputing with John Hallett bis posses sion of the home so dear to him. Lisbeth made no farther allusions to the paper. 8he know that Master Tom was dead, and not aware that it might have been of importance to his widow and offspring. And now. after all this lapse of time, the children of John Hallett'e dead brother had oometo England. For what could it be, he asked agitatedly, but to claim their own? John Hallett started for town oppressed with a new fear. Lisbeth might have fonnd the paper, and inspecting him of fool play, posted it to Canada. How he got through the day noons knew for Charlie pleaded a headache and etayed at home. The disappointed yonth would not risk encountering his newly-fonnd relatives, while he was unable to account to them for his father's extraordinary refusal to reoeive them at the Copse. He knew how ranch they were looking forward to his visit Had not their father talked to them of his English home, till they would bo able to recognize every an tique piece of furniture in the home, every fine old tree in the garden ? Mrs. Ilollett's sympathies were with her ■on, but she wm too dutiful a wife to esy so, and, seeing that she avoided him, Char lie carried a book into the shrubberies, shunnrag the eyes of his elder sisters, wbo, . for lack of any other reason for his de pression, decided that he mast have fallen in love And so he had. Already hia heart had S ons out to bright, capable, brown-haired [ell, who seemed to him just what a pare, good woman should bo. Min wm a most attractive girl; be would be a fortunate fellow who won her, bnt she lacked the indescribable something that made her sis ter bewitching. At last he went indoors to find his mother, end—if he could get her by her self—to confess how keenly he would feel a separation from the pretty Nellie, who wm rapidly becoming dear to him. He hurried to the morning room, and had entered it from the garden before he became aware that the parlor-maid wm wm just ushering in some visitors. It wm too late to retreat, they were acta- | ally in the room, Nell and Min gazing around them with shy pleasure, and Mian Mary Hallett, her broad face beaming with smiles m she caught hold ot her sister-in- law's hands and kissed her on both cheeks. “My dearest Jennie, I have brought these dear girls to spend a few days with you— poor Tom’s daoghten; of coarse Charlie have told yon ahoat them. Ah! there be is. Fetch joar sisters, Charlie. And a k the cabman, my dear boy, to carry in onr trunks. It was a good thonght of mino to ooma with onr nieces, wasn't it?

Perhaps it wm to let my father kuow that hia parents had quite forgiven him for leaving them. He use to say he had not acted well in de serting them." But John Hallstt pushed the paper from him. ‘The hand of God is in this,” he groaned. “Read for yourselves, and ease my soul of the burden that lies heavily upon it. Lisbeth told me that there wan such a paper in existence, bat my searah for it wm a half-hearted one. I valued my home more than what ia right, but if I am to lose it I will bear the loes without mur muring, for 1 have had greater mercies be stowed on me than I deserve." Mrs. Hallett drew nearer and laid her cheek aguinst her husband's, while Min, in faltering tones, read the few feebly traced lines the paper contained. “I have thought over your wish, dear wife; it is hard to say yon nay, bnt I cannot let compassion for Tom make me unjust to his brother. Do you know that if John had not toiled early and late at the time of that terrible crisis we must have been ruined? It wm hia industry, hia perse verance, that enabled ns to retain the home that has grown so dear to us. When we are gone let him reap the trait of his labors. Tom will not love us any the leas because are have nothing more to give him but onr blessing." Bo tho Copse was the property of John Hallett, after all; but wno that taw that face just then would have ventured to congratulate him? He bowed it on his hands, and the sisteri stole away, leaving him alone with tho Under, faitbfnl wife from whom ho never had a secret.

They would have pitied him had they known what a Sunday he bad spent, shut ting himself away from hia family because every questioning look they turned upon him seemed to pierce his heart and lay bare that which be hid within it.

Ha bad a trouble of which no ooe knew .anything but old lie- bath, and even she did not suspect its na- horered near hi* chair, they left off speak ing when they heard his voice, and, when complaining of fatigue he rose to go to hia room, moved by th* earns impulse, both girls ran forward to put their arms about his neck and hold up their fair young faecu for a good-night kta*. It wu plain that he hail been mistaken when he fancied they had come to wrest hia Lome from him, bnt be waa none th* hap pier for the knowledge. He tried to appear calm and cheerful, to respond to the affec tion with which hia nieces were disposed to regard him; but when they talked, m they did freely, of the trials and straggles they and their mother had gone through with before and after their bereavement, hit heart fainted within him, and hia remoras would beoome overpowering. John Hallett would fain have made atone ment He throat into Nell's hand a roll of notes; but it wm promptly returned. “Dear nuele, wa want nothing from yon bnt your love. How can yon imagine that while we are strong, and well able to work, we would rob you ot what you have earned for your children?” No, ha waa not to be allowed to glaze hia conscience by this kind of compensation. Nor waa it any Me protesting that the very act of leaving the Copse away from him- the eldest eon—waa unfair, especially m Tom's portion bad been jMtly meted out to him at hia own desire. As long a# Tom'* daughters were is hia bouse, keeping IUw the old rteoUaction, how could he beet |>cac* with himself? Four data elapsed—anxious ones to Charley anil hia mother, who watched Mr. Hallett's changing mood*, but hesitated to speak of them even to each other—yet very pleasant ones to the yonng Canadians. At tributing to their uncle's ill-health the shadow they saw on his brow, and the troubled looks his wife and son would in terchange, they were always gentle and sympathetic. It waa the onl- cheek on their enjoyment 1 of their visit to their English relatioM. Aunt Mary, in spite of her fidgety ways, waa a lovable old lady.
