A TALE OF THE TIKES.
BV T. 8. AKTHl'IL
“Ruined ! ruined ! ruined !” was the
wildly uttered exclauialion of Mr. Fleet-
wood, ns he came hastily into the toom
where his young wife sat einbioidering
a scarf, and thiowing himself at full
length upon the sofa, hid his face, and
lay shuddering like one in an ague (it.
The needlework dropped from the
hands of Mrs. Fleetwood, and, for m mo
ment or two, she sat like one paralyzed.
Then rising hastily, she sprang across
the room, and dropping on her knees
beside her husband, drew her arm about
11 is neck, and said—
“Oh, Edward ! Edward! what has
happened j”
But the only response she received
was a groan so full of anguish, that it
sent a shudder through her heart.
“Speak Edward!”
“Ruined! hopelessly ruined I”
“Oh, Edward ! look up! Let me see
your face, dear husband !” And she
tried to lay her cheek down against his;
but he kept his face turned from her.
Very, very pale was Mrs. Fleetwood,
as she raised herself from a kneeling
posture, and drawing a chair to the so
fa, sal down, and again laid I er hand
upon her husband. One year only had
she been a bride ; and this was the first
cloud w hich had darkened her sky—the
first cloud ; but it held a desolating tem
pest wiihiu her bosom.
“Edward !” The wife’s deep love had
given strength to her heart already, and
her voice was regaining firmness. “Not
ruined; that is impossible!” she said,
in tones strangely confident.
“Possible and actual,” he answered,
with less agitation, but in a low, solemn
voice.
“Again I say impossible, Edward!”
spoke out Mrs. Fleetwood, her voice
growing yet firmer.
Mr. Fleetwood slowly taised hiuicelf
from his recumbent position on the sofa,
and looked into bis wife’s face. A cry
o? fear parted her lips, and she said, has
tily—
“Oh, Ed»ard, you are ill!”
“I am heartsick—heartbroken—in
despair, Anna!”
“My prec ous husband!”—the tones of
Mrs. Fleetwood were overburdened villi
the tnndeiest love—“don’t say heartbro
ken— don’t say in despair—don’t say
ruined. God is in Heaven, and you are
still a man !”
“By a suddenly falling and unexpect
ed blow, Anna, I ain stricken to the
earth. My all is scattered to the winds!”
“But I he man is safe !” said Mrs. Fleet-
wood, throwing in the sentence, and in
a voice almost exultant.
Mr. Fleetwood looked at his wife half
wondering!}*. A light seemed at the
moment to break in upon him, and be
replied—
“Yes, Anna, the man is safe, I Oust.
There has l een no detect of honor.”
“There could be none, Edward, and
therefore I said ‘not mined ; that is iin-

tears running over her cheeks, as she
leaned towards him, with her eyes fixed
upno his pale suffering face. “But dear,
dear husband ! let me say to you here,
at the beginning of consequences which
roust flow from this sad disaster, that
nothing is to be thought of by you as
affecting me. Shall I sit in the cool,
pleasant summer evenings with my bus-
band, and not stand up by bis side when
the tempest falls ? Only one thing you
have said has at all frightened me.”
“ I know what you mean. Loss of
fortune, small as it may be, is a painful
disaster to any one; but, oh, the thought
of a dishonored name is indeed fright
ful ! That ordeal, Anna, I have got to-
pass; and I fear that strength will fail
me. Oh, it was wrong ever to have put
my name, as president, upon 'paper not.
strictly for the company’s use! It was
a breach of trust; so the world will call
it, and visit me with terrible consequen
ces. There will be no discrimination
between weak consent to aid a friend
cotifided in as a brother, and fraudulent
purpose. The notes were never inten
ded for anything but security, and were
to be returned to tne long before they
became due. The transaction was consid
ered as a kind of formality. I knew
tnyself to have ample resources to meet
the sum they were meant to secure, e-
ven if my friend failed to do so. That
sum was only five thousand dollars—
the security ten thousand, which has
been most basely sacrificed.”
“Ten thousand dollars! So much as
that i” said Mrs. Fleetwood, in a chok
ing voice.
“Yes; so much as that! Oh, Anna !
this night is very, very dark. There is
no tnoon; and the clouds have hidden
the stars. If it were not for the times,
I might save myself from disgrace, thro’
friends once able and always willing.—
But ruin is sweeping through the land,
and the best, (he bravest, and the most
enduring are falling all around tts. To
raise the sum of ten thousand dollars,
and get these notes back again into my
hands, is simply impossible. In less
than two months they will mature, and
then-”
The picture wrought by the excited
imagination of Mr. Fleetwood was so
dreadful to look upon that he covered
his face with his hands and shuddered.
Uis wife did not offer any words of com
fort ; for upon her own part had fallen
an almost suffocating fear. Personal
sacrifice had no terrors for Mrs. Fleet-
wood. Very brave would she have been
under any of the common visitations of
worldly disaster. But the thought of a
dishonored name for the husband, of
whom she had been so proud, smote her
like a sabre stroke.
‘ Something must be done!” It was
the wife’s voice that broke the silence.
“Something must lie done Edward !—
Dishonor? Never ! never !” And her
slight form lifted itself up. Hope and
courage were beginning to revive.
“This sudden shock has prostrated
you, dear husband !” she added, in a
calmer voice. “You will recover strength
“Dear comforter!” aaid Mr. Fleet-
wood, looking down upon the face of
his wife. “I would hardly deserve the
name of man, were I to give up wholly,
with your sweet solicitations to effort
filling my ears. But what, what can 1
do ? I stand at the foot of a tall moun
tain, the sea on either hand; and
st reaching my gaze far away upwardt
see only a perpendicular wall of rock.
I have no wings, and cannot rise, like
the eagle, and escape the danger that is
leaping toward me and threatning swift
destruction.”
“In whose possession are the notes ?”
asked Mrs. Fleetwood, desiring to give
direction, as well as activity, to her hus
band's iniud.
“They are gone, wholly beyond my
reach,” was the answer. “Instead of be
ing left in the hands where they were
first placed, as collateral security, they
have been diseonnted—the original ob
ligation of five thousand dollars paid,
and the balance of the money appropri
ated by my false friend. They stand,
now, as any other debt against the com
pany, and, as I have said, wholly be
yond my reach.”
“Would it not be well,” suggested
Mrs. Fleetwood, “to find out who has
them!”
“I can see no good result likely to
flow from that knowledge,” replied her
husband. “If they were discounted in
bank, there is only one way to recover
them, and that is Tor me to lift them in
advance of the time when due. If they
are in the grasp of some money lender,
the case is quite as hopeless.
But Mrs. Fleetwood urged her hus
band to find out who held the notes, if
; it were possible to gain accurate intel
ligence in regard to them. “Then,” she
said, “we can measure the full magnl
tude of this evil, and find the way of
escape, if that be possible.’
“It is impossible, Anna!” replied Mr.
Fleetwood, almost impatiently.
“Forgive me, Edward,” said his wife,
her eyes filling with tears. “Rut I can
not cease to urge this thing upon you
nope ouly lies in the removal of these
notes out of the way. First, then, we
must learn where they are. 1
“ We ?” Mr. Fleetwood’s voice had in
it a tone of curious interest.
“ Yes, we, Edward. There is too much
at stake now for yon to reject, or even
think lightly of aid or counsel—come
from whence it may. Even a woman
may suggest something by which a man
may profit in an extremity like this—
though the common language of busi
ness may be to her a strange language.
Again, then, let me urge you to find out
where these dangerous notes are to be
found.”
“ I will know era sleep closes my eyes
this night!” said Mr. Fleetwood, speak
ing, a few minutes afterwards, from the
ardor of a suddenly formed purpose.
“ Let it be to-night, then, if possible,”
replied his wife. “The quicker the truth
is known, the better.”
“ I need not say, be very circumspect,
EdwarJ,” were the wife’s parting words,

eagerly towards the doer. The face that

lock inside, were indications of so qnes- nes8es - So far as I could see, they were
tionable a character, that Mr. Floyd's
warm eolcr left his cheeks almost as
suddenly as it had dyed them. Uis vis
itor noted this;
“ Desperate diseases require desj*erate
remedies, John Floyd.” Fleetwood had
turned from the door, and was now ad-
mlvanciiig across the room, with his eyes
fixed upon tbe face of his false friend,
who rend in them a purjiose that made
his coward heart sink.
“ It is never safe to swindle beyond a
certain line, John Floyd,” continued
Fleetwood, in a low, but stern voice.—
“Yon should have been content with
robbing me of my little patrimony ; but,
when you left no alternative hut dishon
or, or a remedy like this, you went
a step too far. So 1 have come, now,
for restitntion, or retribution.”
“ In the fiend’s name, what do you
want?” demanded Floyd, with a slight
show of courage.
“The first thing I want is a return of
the notes I placed in your bands to be
used only as collateral.”
“ I have already told yon that they
are beyond my reach,” was answered.
“It is false!” cried Fleetwood, in
sudden excitement, darting forward as
he spoke, and grappling eagdly at a
small pile of papers that lay on the ta
ble. Tbe well known vignette of the
Insurance Company had caught his eyes
- the fatal notes were before him ! To
seize them was the work of a moment;
in the next instant they were lorn in
pieces!
“ I have already told y* n to yonr
teeth, John Floyd, that you were a vil-
lian,” said Fleetwood, his strong indig
nation repressing all exterior signs of
agitation. “I meant it in its general
acceptation; for I did not then dream
that yonr heart was corrupt enough for
a deed like this. To turn away from a
gone beyond recall. Bat yonr urgent
promptings quickened a sew life within
me, and nerved me with a new, and, I
will own, desperate purpose. I went ta
the bouse of Floyd, resolved to force him
into terms of some kind; when lo! up
on his table lay jhe very notes. He was
wickedly holding them for his own ben
efit. I snatched there up, and rent there
in pieces. And so, the fatal witnesses
of a weak, blind, almost criminal viola
tion of the faith so honorable reposed in
me have perished ! Let the property of
which ihat villain has k> basely robbed
tne, go. I will not fling after it a single
sigh of regret; for I am too thankful
that a good name—more precious (ban
rubies—is spared to me.”
