During the voyage, Herman was alter-
nately lght-liearted and depressed. To
droivii thought he would indulge in bois-
§ teroiis inirt.h—apparently the gayest of
5 the gay——and then for hours he would
l stand gaziiig over the ship’s side, lost in
l gloomy reverie. Ile longed, with ill-
' concealed impatience, for the hour when
he should hail dear England once more.
As they came on soundings, a rush of
tiimulinous feeling, glad and exhilira-
ting, filled his breast ; his fancy clothed
the long, dark line of coast in hues of
lneauiy ; and when at fast he landed on
British soil, he could have knelt and
kissed the very ground.
It was but the work of a moment to
order a coach and drive to the residence
of his parents. I-Iis old father had so far
rccovered as to be able to hobble about
the room, and he clasped his son in his
arms, exclairniug‘, “I thank my God that
I beliold you once more l”
His motlier—with her sweet blue eyes
undiniined, and a fresh line on her still
fair clieek—-seemed younger with the
bettering of her fortune. She almost
sniotiicred her beloved child with kisses,
but said, as she held him at arms’
lcngtli, “Ali, my Herman, that West In-
dian climate will spoil your beauty; and
vchy, pray, did not you bring your young
wife and settle in England?”
“ Yes, to be sure,” spoke up the old
man ; “we long to gladden our eyes
with a sight at your pretty young wife

\Vceks passed, and alas! he thought
very little of his poor wife. There
seemed to be a great burden lifted from
his mind, and while he chided himself
; for his l1l(lliIGl'€llCe, he still cherished it.
Iinoivn now as a wealthy “West Indian
very
resident, followers and flaiterers were
not waiitiiig; his society was courted by
the refiiieil, the intelligent; and as
months flew by, he lost the sallowness

his check recovered its wonted bloom,
his form its iipriglituess, his step its

coiiiiiryivoiiien, with the insipid charac-
ter and aimless existence with his alien
wife; so that for hours he would sit anti
ponder how he could so far have lost his
s-crises as to marry her.
“I was a mere boy,” he would mutter;
“a child in love affairs. I have ruined
myself, I find, alasl too late; thrown
myse:f away for a senseless beauty.

November is said to -be the month. 0
suicides in England. The dense fogs
and peculiar rawness of the damp winds
give to the atmosphere a chilliness and
gloom that fall depressingly upon the
most buoyant spirit, imparting an irresis-
tible and far from pleasing melancholy.
Towards the close of a. wailing No-
vember day, Herman Stanton sat alone
in his chamber. It wanted only one
short week of the time he had long ago
fixed upon for his voyage towards what
he called, sometimes, home. His face
had grown meager and thin ; he was no
longer attired with that faultless taste
that had always characterized him. His
hair seemed darker and thicker, and it
was sadly dishevelled by constantly
pushing his fingers through its tangled
curls ; his whole appearance was that of
a man on the verge of insanity, or labor-
ing under some crushing sorrow.
“I cannot, I will not,” he muttered
between his clenched teeth ; “what! go
back again to press her to a false heart’!
to breathe vows of love where my whole
being loathes? 0! better death ;” and
he glanced uneasily at a brace of pistols,
that like the cold, glittering eyes of a
basilisk, seemed to lure him to his de-
struction. He had now reached the acme
of his misery; he hated the light, he
dreaded the face of a human being, he
loathed his species, himself.
Starting up, he hurried back and forth
in his chamber. “My cursed luck has
Luriied,” he muttered again, “and I am
now the dupe of fortune. Ol heavenl
where is there a wretch so miserable as
I?" For two long hours the unhappy
man paced the floor, his brow black and
his pace unsteady, revolving most horri-
ble thoughts in his mind. Often did he
determine to rid himself of :1 life so bur-
densorne, once his hand rested on the
murderous weapon beside him, but as he
imagined the horrors ofsuch a death,and
vaguely felt, that in the future there
could be no hope for a murderer, he re-
coiled with shuddering and awe ; but to
his fear succeeded not repentance.
Gradually the frown faded from his
brow; he drew his chair closer to the
little grate, heaped with glowing an-
thracite, and sat: down before it. The
dismal voices of the blast mingled in
one discordant bowl, and a heavy
shower of bail stones played their not
unmusical reveille against the window
pane. But with the increase of the
storm and the harsh chime of the wind,
Herman Stanton grew more cheerful.
"If I go there,” he said, in a firm tone,
speaking to himself, ‘-I shall at least
have enough of solitude. It is said in
those American wilds, the voice of man
is seldom heard,—a hermit, the idea is
vastly agreeable—I will be a hermit; no
one will hear of or know me there. As
to living thus, dying a thousand deaths
daily, as to returning} to Cuba to play
Lhe hypocrite in Fading a life of loathe-
some case with One I cannot love, I will

year; yes, we years, with the slender
means I shall need. I am tired of fash-
im, tired of friends, of myself, of bores,
of everybody; I will go to there endless
forests, court solitude and die unknown.”
A timid knock at the door; Ellen, the
liittle servant girl, came in and placed a/
billet in his hand. It ran thus: _,'
