How sad when memory brings to life.
A loved one passed away,
Whose every smile to those at home,
Was like a heavenly ray.
She has gone to him who made her ;
Her spirits now at rest
From this cold world of trouble,
To dwell among the blast. .
A few short fleeting years will pass,
Then we must all appear
Before the Judgment seat of God,
And meet for sentence there.
’Ilien let us look to Heaven for strength,
When we shall pass away
From this short gloomy night of earth ;
And wake to eternal day.

THE GRAND ASSIZE CAUSE.
“ ASHLEY.”
BY THE AUTHOR OF
I.
A crowd of busy id|e'rs was gathered
round the guildlio-ll at Riverton, and a
dense crowd, both of workers and idlers,
was packed insideit, especially in the Nisi
Prius Court. The spring ussizes were be-
ing held, they had commenced that morii-
ing, Monday, and the great cause was
on, Carr 1:. Carr.
' Not that the cause was anything so
very great in itself, only the good citizens
of Iliverton had clioseu to take it up and ,
magnify itin 0 one. It turned upon the
legiiiuuiey o — obert Carr, now dead ; if
that could be proved, his widow and chil-
dreu would inherit the fortune of lils
grandfather ; if not, that fortune went to
more distant.1'eliitivi:s,Squire Carr and his
son Valentine.
Robert Cari-’s father, (whose name was
also Robert) had written a document on
his deatli-bed, to the effect that he had
been married in Riverton, at the church
of St. J umes the Less ; but this document
had been mislaid uutilfsfter the death of
Robert Curr. His widow found it, and
. dispatched it to Mr. Fauntleroy, the Riv-
erton solicitor who was conducting their
cause. Mr. Fauntleroy, upon receipt of
the important letter, sent a clerk to search
the register of St. James the Less, and
there the nlilI‘l'liIg0 was found, duly cuter-
id. This was the previous aiitnmii ; and
Mr. Fauntleroy hugged himself and buoy-
ed up Mrs. Carr with the certainty of
success ; wlieu, just upon the assizes, the
unaccountable discovery was made that
no entry of the marriage was in the regis-
ter Mr. Fauntleroy, though he had not
himself seen it, asserted that it had been
there, and must have been taken out, and
the other side held to it that the marriage
had never taken place, and the entry had
never been there.
The trial came on about two in the
afternoon, and it progressed eqnably up to
five, then there arose the fierce discussion
touching the register. M. Fauutleroy’s
counsel, Sergeant Wrangle, declaring
that the marriage was there up to very
recently, and Mynn mid M ynn’s counsel,
Sergeant Siftcm, ridiculing the assertion,
Mynn and Mynn being the lawyers for
Squire Carr. The judge ordered *he reg-
ister to be produced.
It was brought into court and exam- _
incd. The marriage was not there, nei-
ther was there any sign of its having been
abstracted. Lawrence Omer was called,
Mr. Fauntleroy’ clerk, and he testified
to having searched the register, seen the
marriage, and copied the names of the
witnesses to it. In proof of which be ten-
dered his pocket-book, where the names
were written in pencil. - .
Up rose Sergeant Siftem. “ What day
was this, pray?"
“I forget the precise day. It was in
October.” ‘
“And so you think you saw the mar-
riage of Robert Carr and Martha. Ann
Hughes there?”
" I am very sure I saw it,” replied Mr.
Omer. ‘
“ Were you alone?”
“ I looked over the book alone. Hunt,
the clerk of the church was present in the
Vestry.”
"It must appear to the jury as a singu-
lar thing that you only, hould have seen
this mysterious entry,-"continued Sergeant
Siftem.
“Perhaps nobody else looked for it ;
they'd have seen it if they had,” shortly
returned the witness, who felt himself an
aggrieved man, and spoke like one, since
half the town had publicly accused him
of having gone down to St. Jaine’s in
his sleep, and seen the entry in his sleep
alone.
"' Does it not strike you, witness, as be-
" ing éxtrcordiiiary that this one particu-
lar entry, professed to have been seen by
your eyes, and by yours alone, should
have been abstracted from it book safely
kept under lock and key?” pursued Ser-
geant Siftem. I am mistaken if it would
not strike an intelligent man as being akin
to an impossibility.”
“No it does not strike me so. But
events, hard of belief, happen sometimes.
I swear the marriage was in the book
last October ; why it is not there now,is
the extraordinary part of the affair.”
It was no use to cross-exsiuiiic the wit-
ness further ; he will cross and obttiilstc
and persisted in his story. Sergeant Sift-
em dismissed him, and Hunt was called,
the clerk of the church, who came hob-
bliug in. .
The old man rambled in his evidence,
but the point of it was that he didn’t be-
lieve any abstraction had been made, not
he 5 it must be a farce to suppose it ; a.
crotchet of that great lawyer Fauntleroy,
how could the register be touched when
he liimelf kept it sure and sacred, the key
of the safe in is hiding place in the vestry
and the key of the church hanging up in
his own house, outside his kitchen door?
Ills rector said it had been robbed and
in course he couldn't stand out to his face
as it hsdu’t, but he were upon his oath
now, and must speak the truth without
sliriuking. '
Sergeant Wrangle rose. Did the
witness mean to tell the court that he
never saw or read the entry of the mar-
riage ‘?
No he never did. He heard say as it
were there, but he never looked.
“ But you were present when the wit-
ness Omcr examined the register?” per-
sisted Sergeant Wrangle.
“‘ Master Omer wouldu’t he’ go‘. to ex-
amine it, unless I had been, my lord judge
and jury, returned Hunt to Sergeant
Wraugle. “ I was setting down in the
vestry, a nursing of my leg, which were
worse than usual that day, it always is in
damp weather, and—”
. “Coniinc yourself to evidence,” inter-
rupted the judge.
“ Well, your reverences, I was nursing
my leg while Master Omer looked into the
book. I don't know what he saw there,
he didn’t say, and when he had done look-
ing, I locked it up safe.”
“ Did you see him make an extract
from it?” demanded Sergeant Wrangle.
“ Yes, your worship, I saw him a
writing something down in his pocket-
book.”
“ Have you ever intriisted the key of
the safe to strange hands?”
“I wouldn’t do such a thing, your rev-
erent worships. I never gave it to no-
body, and never would, there's not a soul
knows where it is to be found, but me, the
rector and the other clergyman, Mr.
Prattleion, who comes often to the duty.
I couldn’t say as much for the key of the
church, which sometimes goes beyond
my custody, for the rector allows one or
two of the young college gents to go in
to play the organ. By token, one on ’em
-—the quietest of the pair, it were too-
fluug in that very key, on to our kitchen
floor, and sliivered our cat’.-1 beautiful
chancy suuceriato seven atoms, and my

“ That is not evidence,” again inter-
rupted the judge.
Nothing more apparently, that was ev-
idence could bc got l'rom the witness, so
he was dismissed.
Call the Rev. Mr. Wilberforce.
The Rev. Mr. Wilberforce, rector of
St. James the Less, minor canon of Riv-
ertou Cathedral, and head master of the
collegiate school cams forward.
" You are the rector of St. James the
Less," said Sergeant Wrangle.
“ I am,”.replied Mr. \Vilberforce.
“ Did you ever see the entry of Robert
Carr's marriage with Martha Ana Hughes
in the cliiircli register ?” '
“ Yes, I did.”
“ When did you see it?”
“On the twenty-fourth of last. Octo-
ber.” .
" How do you fix the date, Mr. Wil-
berforce ?" inquired the judge, who recog-
nized him as the minor canon who had.
oliiciated in the cliauter’s deck, the pre
vious day in the cntliedral.
“ I had been marrying a couple that
morning, my lord, the twenty-fourth.-
After I had entered their marriage, I
turned back and looked for the registry
of Robert Carr's, and I found it and read
it.”
“ What induced you to look for it ?”
asked the counsel.
‘'1 had heard that his marriage was
discovered to have taken place at St.
James’ and that it was recorded in the
register. Curiosity induced sic to turn
back and read it.”
“ You bot h saw and read it,” continued
Sergeant Wrangle. ’
“ I both saw and read it,” replied Mr.
Wilberforce.
“ Then you testify that it was undoubt-
edly tliere ?”
" Most certai it was.”
“ The reverend gentleman will have the
goodness to remember that he is upon his
oath,” cried Sergeant Siftcm, impiidently
bobbing up.
“ Sir !” was the indignant rebuke of
the clergyman. “ You f ct to whom
you are speaking,” be ad amidst the
dead silence of the court.
‘ Can you remember the words writ-
ten ?’ resumed Sergeant Wrangle.
‘ The entry was properly made, in the
same manner that the others were, of that
period. Robert Carr and Martha Ann
Hughes had signed it, also her brother
and sister as witnesses.’
‘ You have no doubt that the entry
was there, then, Mr. Wilberforce?’ ob-
served the judge.
‘My lord,’ cried the Reverend gentle-
man, somewhat nettled at the question
‘ I can believe my own eyes. I am not
more certain that I am now giving evi-
deuce before your lordship, than I am
that the marriage was in the register.’
“ It is not in now,’ said the judge.
‘ No, my lord ; it must have been clev-
erly abstracted.’
‘ The whole leiif, I presume?’ said Scr-
geant Wrangle.
' ‘ Uudoubtedl y. The marriage entered
below Robert Carr's was that of Sir
Thomas Euling ; I read that also, with
its long string of witnesses, that is also
gone.’ ’
‘ Can you account for its disappearance?’
asked Sergeant Wrangle.
‘ Not in the least. I wish I could, and
find the offenders.’
‘ The incumbent of the parish at that ‘
time is no longer living,’ observed Sar-
gcsut Wrsngle.
‘He has been dead many years,’ re-
plied Mr. Wilberforce, ‘ four or five have
held the living since then. But it was
not the incumbent who married them '; it
was .a strange clergyman who performed
the ceremony; a friend of Robert
Carr's.’ : j -
“How do you know this?’ snapped
Sci-gssiit Siftem. ,' .
‘Because he tiéiled tlic an
lmfiig performed it,” replied Mr. Wil-
berforce, confronting the Srgeant with a
wok as undaunted as his own.
_ What cared Sergeant Siftem for be-
ing confronted ? ‘ Hcw do you know he
gas a friend of Robert Curr’s ?’ went on
e.
‘ In that I speak from hearsay. But
there are many men of this city, older
than I am, who remember that the Rev-
erend Mr. Bell and Robert Carr were
upon exceedingly intimate terms; they
can testify it to you, if you choose to call
them.’
Sergeant Siftem growled and then sat
down.
‘ Allow me to ask you, sir,’ continued
Sergeant Wraugle, ‘ whether the mar-
riage, baviiig been entered there, is not a
proof of its having taken place ?’
‘ Certainly,’ replied Mr. Wilberforce.
‘ A proof indispu table.’ ~ 0
But courts of justice, judges and jury
require ocular and demonstrative proof.
It is probable there was not a soul in
court, including the judge and Sergeant
Sifceiu, but believed the evidence of the
Reverend Mr. Wilberforce, even had they
chosen to doubt that of Lawrence Omer,
but the register negatively ti-stified that
there had been no marriage, and upon the
register, in law, must rest the onus of
proof. Had there been positive evidence,
not negative, of the abstraction of the leaf
from the register, had the register itself
afforded such, the aspect of affairs would
have been very clitl'ereiit. When the
court rose that night, the trial had ad-
vanced down to the summing-up of the
judge, which was deferred till morning,
but it was felt by every body that the
summing up would be dead against the
client of Mr. Fauntleroy, and that Squire
Carr had gained the cause.
The Squire and his son Valentine, and
Mynn and Mynn, and one or two of the
lesser guns of the bar, but not the great
gun, Sergeant Siftem, took it late dinner
together, and drank toasts, and were as
uproarious as success could make them ;
and Rivertou, outside, echoed their senti-
mcnts—tliut ’cute old Fauntleroy had not
a leg to stand upon.
’Cute old _ FauntlerJy—-’cnte enough,
goodness knew, in gener:il—-was thinking
the some thing, as he took a solitary chop
in his own house. After the meal was
finished he sat over the fire in a dreamy
uiood,he scarcely knew how long,and full
of vexation.
An hour or so previous to_ that, Hen-
ry Arkell was in his home, not at his les-
sons, as was customary at that hour, but
was idly talking with his mother, when
Cookcsley, the second senior of the col-
lege school, came in,Mr. Wilberforce hav-
ingsentliiiu to inquire alter Arkell.
‘ My head is a little better to-night,
Cookesley,’ was his reply.
‘Such a game i’ cried Cookesley.--
‘ Wilberforce has been at the assizes all
the afternoon, he had to give evidence
about that register business, slid Roberts
worked himself into a passion trying to
douiincer over as» upper boys, but of
course we were not going to let hiin.—
Isn’t Aultlaue in a fury _though, about
the medal business ?’
‘ Is the Curr case over ?’ interrupted
Mrs. Arkell.
‘ All but the summing up of the judge
and the verdict, ma’am,’ replied Cookies-
lcy. ‘ It is virtually over, for, in conse-
quence of the abstraction from the regis-
ter, the verdict must go against Mrs.
Cari'.o_ Mr. Wilberforce says it is a cruel
injustice upon her and her children.’
‘ The verdict would have been for
her, had not the leaf been taken out of
the register ?’ cried Henry lifting his
head.
‘ Of course it would, for it proved the
marriage. People are saying that if there
were only direct evidence of the theft, the
verdict would be given for her, Mr. Wil-
berforce and Fiiuutleroy’s clerk having
testified that the entry was there.’
‘ It will be a cruel verdict,’ acquiesced
Mrs. Arkell warmly. ‘ She and her chil-
dren will be desiitute,while their own law-
ful money will be enjoyed by others. Are
you going ?’ _
‘ I must,’ replied Cookesley. ‘ The
master timed me. Good-night, ma’am,
good-night, old fellow.’
After Cookcsley’s departure, Henry
leaned his hands on the table and his
head down upon tlieui, his mother sup-
posed that his head felt easier in that po-
sition, but, in reality be was in o tumult
of debating t-bought. Suddenly he start-
cd,up and and took his cap.
‘ Where are you going?’ exclaimed
Mrs. Arkcll in surprise.
' Only to Pi-attletons, momma.’
He flew out of the house, giving Mrs.
Arkell time for no further questions.-
She supposed he had something to say to
one of the young Prattletous, his school
fellows, but when he reached their resi-
dence, he inquired for Mr. George, it rel-
ative of the Rev. Mr. Prattletou.
‘ George is oil’ in the Grounds for the
evening,’ cried Prattleton, senior : ' Grif-
iin has got a baclielor’.-i party. I say,
Arkell, you should have seen Aultlane
this morning, wlicu St. John said one of
the fellows had been down to Rutterly’s
trying to pledge xi spoon with the A
tune crest upon it, that is, he did not
tually say the crest was the Aultan

said altcrwars if he had had a pistol re
capped and loaded, he should have i
himself, or the dean, or somebody elsi
Serve him right, for splitting about I
terly’s.; there’ll be a row over that
with Wilberforce.’
He iiry had no time to waste on go:
and ran back to the gi-ounds—as the
mediate precincts of the Catliedral v
called. He knocked at Mr. Griili
house, another siinor canon, whose
and heir,was holdiug,as Prattleton,sen
termed it, a batchelors party. He as
for George Prattlstoo, and the is
came out to him and stood outside the»
door.
‘ Mr. Prattleton,’ he whispered, ‘ you
have heard, I suppose, how the trial is
turning ; that it is going ‘wrong. and un-
justly, because there is no direct proof of
the fraud on the register. You must re_
lease me from my promise.
‘ I'll be shot if I do,’ returned George
Prsttletou; is it tone of alarm; ‘ You
just hold your tongue, Arkel. What is
it to.you.? The Carr folks are not your
friends or relations.’
' IfI were to let the trial go" against
liir, for tho west of telling the" truth,
I should -have it on my conscience al-
ways.’
' My word,’ exclaimed George Prettie-
ton, ‘ a school-boy with a conscience !—
I never knew they were troubled with
any i’
‘ Will you release me from my promise
of not speaking ?’
‘ ‘ Not if you go down on your knees for
it. What a green one you are.’
‘ You wou’t,’ loomed Prattleton, with
an oath. ‘
' ‘I will. I gave the promise only coa-
ditioniilly, remember; and as things are
turning out,-I am under no obligation to
keep it. - But I would not speak without
asking your consent first, whether I got
it or not.’ \
‘ I have a great mind to carry you by
force, and fling you into thcriver,’ ut-
tered Pruttleion. in-a. savage tone. ,
‘ You know you coiildn’t'do it,’ return-
ed Henry quietly ; ‘ii I am not your equal
in age and strength, I could call those
who are. But there's not a moment to
be lost. I am oil‘ to Mr. Fauutlei-oy’s.’
Henry Arkell meant what he said : he
was always resolute in right : and Prettie-
ton, after a further confubulation was fain
to give iii. Indeed though he had made
a last effort at holding out this was noth-
ing but what he had expected all day and
and for several days; and he had in a
measure, prepared himself for it.
‘ I'll tell the news myself,’ said George
Prirttleton, ' if it must be told: and I'll
tell it to Mr. Prattlcton, not to Fauntle-
roy, or any of the law set.
‘I must go to Mr. Prattleton with
you,’ returned'Henry.
‘ You can wait for me out here, then.
We are-at whist, and my coming out has
stopped the game. I shan’t be more than
five minutes.’ '
George Pi-attleton retreated indoors,
and Henry ‘Arkell paced about, before
the houses of the prebeiidaries. He came
in turn, to the deanery, and was stand-‘
ing near its door lost in thought, when
Miss Beauclere, the dean's pretty and
giddy daughter, came out of a. neighbor-
ing house attended by an old manservaut.
She was inuffled in a shawl, and wore a
pink silk hood : the latter she threw back
from her face when she saw Henry
Arkell. '
‘ Why, it’s never you I’ cried she, as
she halted at her door. ‘Thank you .J a-
cob, that will do,’ she added to the ser-
vaut: ‘dou’t stand, or you’ll catch your
rheumatism : Mr. Arkell will remain with
me, till the door is opened. .Were you
calling to see me, Hurry ?’ she asked, as
the old man went away.
‘No, Miss Beauclerc. I am waiting
for George Prnttleton : he is at Gi'iiliii’s.’
' Harry, tell me-why is it you never
come to the deauery ? I can assure you
there is not another boy in the college‘
who would dare to set at naught the
dean's invitations.’
‘ Knowing what passed the last night
I was at the deaasry, the audit night can
you ask- why I stay away 1?’. he rejoined.
‘Oh i but you were so stupid.’
‘ Yes I ‘know. , I have been stupid for
years past.’
Miss Beauclerc laughed. ‘And you
think that stopping away will cure you ?’
‘It will not cure me; years will not
cure me.’ he passionately broke forth, in
a. tone whose anguish was irrepressible.
‘ Absence and years alone will do that.
When I go to the university —-—.’ He
stopped unable to proceed.
‘ When you go to the university you
will come back a wise man. Henry,’ she
continued, changing her manner to seri-
ousness, ‘ it was the higlit of folisliuess to
suffer yourself to care for me. If I—if it
wfe recipocrated, and I cared for you,
if I were dying of love for you there are
barriers on all sides, and in all ways.’
‘ I am aware o _ there is the barrier
between us of dis 'ty of years; there
is a wide barrier of station ; and there is
the greatest barrier of all, want of love
on your’ side. I know that my loving
vouhas been nothing short of madness,
from the first: madness and double mad-
ness since I knew where your heart was
given.’
‘So you will retain that crotchet in
your head i’
‘It is no crotchet. Do you think my
loving eyes——my jealous eyes, if you so
so will it—havc been deceived? You
must be happy, now that he.has come
back to Rivertou.’
‘ Stupid 1’ echoed Miss Beauclerc.
‘ But it has been your fault, Georgina,’
he resumed reverting to himself. ' You
saw what my feelings were becoming for
you and you did all you could to draw
them on : though you may have deemed
me a child in years, you know I was not
in heart. They might have been checked
in the onset, and repressed : why-did you
not do it? why did you do just the con-
trary, and give me encouragement? You
may have called it flirting, and thought
it good sport : but you know that what
is sport to one, may be death to another.’
“' ‘his estrangemenl. makes me uncom-
fortable,” proceeded Miss Beauclei'c.—
