over the wet dunes, was a mystery to Caro which had come to an almost positive conclusion that he grew darker the more he pondered over it.

Thus we arrived at Zanowitz, where the poor mud-hovels were scattered about over the undulating sandy dunes, as if they were playing hide and seek. Between the dunes the open sea was visible. This had always been a sight that I loved, when the sun shone brightly on the white sand and the blue water, and the white gulls wheeled in joyous circles over the calm sea. But now all was of a uniform gray, the sand, and the sky, and the sea that came rolling in in heavy waves. Even the gulls, sweeping with harsh cries over the stormy waters, seemed gray like the rest. It was a dreary picture, the coloring of which harmonised with the frame of mind in which my conversation with Klaus had left me.

be a great friend of mine, came, everybody asked him if he had not heard what had become of George Hartwig, how he was going about in the very worst region of the whole island, and playing the buffoon for noblemen with whom he was leading the most shameless life. That he would lose more money in gambling in a single night than his poor father made in a whole year, and heaven only knew how he came by it. But the worst of all was something which Klaus only mentioned after again solemnly assuring me that he did not believe a word of it. He had been the evening before to take leave of Justizrath Heckepfennig, who was Christel's godfather, and at whose house he was a frequent visitor. The family were just at tea: Elise Kohl, Emilie's dearest friend, was there too, and they had done Klaus the honor to offer him a cup of tea, after he had said that next day he was going 'I see Peters is getting ready to sail,' said Klaus, to Zanowitz and meant to look me up. The Jus- pointing to one of the larger vessels that were tizrath urgently dissuaded him from doing so, add-rocking at anchor a short distance from the beach. ing that his long fixed conviction that I would die 'I think we had better go down: Father and in my shoes, had recently received a confirmation, | Christel will be down there waiting for me.' which, however, he was not free to disclose. That then the girls had sat in judgment upon me, and decided that they could forgive me everything else, but could never forgive me for being the lover of Fräulein von Zehren. They had heard of it from Arthur, who of course knew; and Arthur had told such things about his cousin that a girl of any self-respect could hardly listen to them, and which it was quite impossible to repeat.

Klaus was terrified at the effect which his account produced upon me. In vain did he repeat that he did not believe a word of it, and had told the girls so at the time. I vowed that I renounced now and forever so faithless and treacherous a friend, and that I would sooner or later be most bitterly avenged upon him. I gave vent to the most terrible threats and maledictions. Never would I again, with my own consent, set foot in my native town: I would rather cause an earthquake to swallow it, if it stood in my power. Up to this time I had felt twinges of conscience as to whether I had not acted too rashly in leaving my father for so trifling a cause: but now should my father a hundred times command me to return, I would not do it. And as for Herr von Zehren and Fräulein von Zehren, I valued a hair of either of their heads more than the whole town of X., and I was ready to die for both of them here on the spot in these water-boots of mine, and the devil might afterwards beat the boots about the Justizrath's old mop of a head.

So we went down to the strand, where they were about pushing off one of the numerous smaller boats drawn up upon the sand. A crowd of persons were standing by, and among them old Pinnow, Christel, and Klaus's Aunt Julchen, a wellto-do fisherman's widow, whom I remembered very well.

Poor Klaus was scarcely allowed a minute to say good-bye. Skipper Peters, who had to deliver in X. the same day the corn he had shipped for the Commerzienrath's account, swore at the foolish waste of time; Pinnow growled that the stupid dolt would never have common sense; Christel kept her tearful eyes riveted on her Klaus whom she was to lose for so long a time; Aunt Julchen wiped the tears and the rain from her good fat face with her apron; and the deaf and dumb apprentice Jacob, who was among the rest, stared uninterruptedly at his master as if he now saw his red nose and blue spectacles for the first time. Klaus, looking very confused and very unhappy, said not a single word, but taking in his left hand a bundle which Christel had given him, he offered his right to each in turn, and then springing into the boat, seized one of the two oars. A couple of fishermen waded out and pushed the boat off; the oars were laid in the rowlocks, and the skiff danced over the waves to the cutter, on which the foresail was already hoisted.

doing her a kindness if I detained her father awhile upon the beach. But Herr Pinnow was in no haste to leave, as it seemed. With his blue spectacles over eyes which I knew to be sharp as a hawk's, he gazed into the foaming waters, and exchanged with the Zanowitz sailors and fishermen such remarks as naturally fall from old searats on the beach watching the departure of a vessel.

When I turned again, Christel had gone, and the fat aunt was just about following her. The The good Klaus was stricken dumb with horror poor thing no doubt wished to shed her long pentwhen he heard me utter these frightful impreca-up tears in quiet, and I thought that I should be tions. It is quite probable that the idea struck him that my soul was in a more perilous state than he had hitherto supposed. He did not say this, however, but presently remarked, in his simple way, that disobedience to a father was a very serious thing; that I well knew how much he had always thought of me, in spite of all that people said, and that he had always been disposed, and was still disposed to agree with me in everything; but that here I was clearly in the wrong; and that These were in truth faces by no means adapted if my father had really ordered me to return to inspire confidence, these high-boned, lean, home, he could not see, for his part, what should weather-beaten, sunburnt visages, with light-blue prevent me from obeying him; that he must con- blinking eyes, of the men of Zanowitz; but I had fess to me that my disobedience to my father had to say to myself, as I stood by and observed them been troubling him ever since he heard of it, and one by one, that the face of my old friend was the that he could go away with an easier mind, now most unprepossessing of all.

He walked silently by my him to-day with different eyes. For indeed, since side, giving me a sorrowful look from time to time, yesterday evening, the suspicion which had relike Caro, who trotted with drooping ears by my peatedly entered my mind, that old Pinnow was other side; for the rain was falling still more deeply implicated in Herr von Zehren's hazardous heavily, and my aimless wandering in such weather 'undertakings, had been aroused anew. In fact I

would take an active part in the expedition on hand; and I had been much surprised to hear Klaus say that his father had ferried Christel and himself over. So, whatever his connexion with Herr von Zehren might be, he was not with him this time, and that fact partially relieved my uneasiness.

The smith seemed not to have forgotten our quarrel on that evening. He steadily pretended not to see me, or turned his broad back upon me while he told the others what a quick passage he had made, and that he would not have ventured out in such weather, and with his weak eyes that grew weaker every day, had not Klaus been in such haste. And even though it should blow less hard this evening, he would rather not take back Christel with him; she could stay at his sister's, and in her place he would take some active young fellow from here on board to help him, for as for that stupid blockhead, Jacob, he could not be relied on.

The tobacco-chewing men of Zanowitz listened to him and answered yes, or said nothing and did their part in thinking.

To remain on the beach with the wind driving the rain and spray into one's face, was by no means comfortable, so I turned away from the group and walked up the shore. I knew where Aunt Julchen's cottage stood, and I thought I would look in and say a few friendly words to Christel if I could. But as if he suspected my intention and was determined to thwart it, old Pinnow, with a pair of fellows of much the look of gallows-birds, came after me; so I gave up my design for the time and went through the town, and ascended the dunes, intending to cross the heath to Trantow.

I had just crossed the summit of the highest dune, which was called the white one from the peculiar brilliancy of its sand, and from which one commanded an extensive prospect up and down the shore, when I heard my name called. I turned and perceived a female figure crouching in a little hollow under the sharp ridge of the dune, upon the side that looked away from the village and the sea, and beckoning eagerly to me. To my no little surprise I recognised Christel, and at once hastened to her. When I came up, she drew me into the hollow, and intimated to me with gestures rather than words that I must sit still and keep the dog quiet.

'What is all this for, Christel?' I asked.

'There is no time to be lost,' she answered, 'and I must tell you in two minutes. At three o'clock this morning Herr von Zehren came to see "him;" they thought I was asleep, but I was not, because I had been crying about grandmother, and I heard everything. This evening a Mecklenburg yacht laden with silk will arrive: Herr von Zehren has gone by extra-post to R. to tell the captain who is waiting for him there, to set sail: he will return himself with him on the yacht. Then they planned how to get the goods off the yacht; and "he" offered, as the coast was clear, to take them off himself with his boat. Always before, the goods have been concealed in Zanowitz, and he took off such as were intended for X., from Zehrendorf, later, as opportunity offered. When Herr von Zehren objected that it might attract notice if he had his boat out without any apparent reason and in such bad weather, "he" said that Klaus had been wanting to go see his aunt before he went away, so he would take him over, and carry me along too, that there might be no possibility of suspicion. Then they called in Jock Swart, who had been waiting in the forge, and told him to come over here at once and have ready for tonight twelve of the surest men from Zehrendorf and Zanowitz, to accompany him on board,-as carriers

you know. Jock went, and after about a quarter of an hour Herr von Zehren went too, and then after another quarter of an hour Jock came back again. I wondered at this, for Herr von Zehren had told him expressly and several times over not to lose a minute but to set out at once; but "he" must have given him a sign, or had some previous understanding with him. Then they put their heads together and talked so softly that I could not make out what they said, but it must have been something bad, for "he" got up once or twice and came and listened at my door to see if I was awake. Then he went away, but Jock stayed. About an hour later, just as day was beginning to break, he came back with another man-the Customs-inspector Blanck. He had not his uniform on, but I knew him at once, and would have known him anyhow by his voice. So now the three whispered together, and after a little while went away. About six "he" came back alone, and knocked at my door, for I had been afraid to come out, and asked if I was not going to get up to-day? Klaus would soon be there, he said, and we were to come over here together, and I was to bring some things with me, as very likely he would leave me here with my aunt.'

While Christel was telling me this, she looked cautiously from time to time over the ridge of the dune, to see if the coast was clear.

'I did not know what to do,' she went on, 'for I could not tell Klaus: he is like a child and knows nothing about it all, and must not know; and I thank God he is away. I put it into his head to go and see you, for I thought very likely you would come down with him, as you did, and I wanted to tell you if possible, to see if you could do anything. Herr von Zehren has always been so good to me, and the last time he was here said he would take care of Klaus and me; and that I need not be afraid of "him," for "he" knew very well, and he had moreover told "him," that if he did me any harm he would shoot him dead. And since then "he" has left me in peace; but he swears horribly at Herr von Zehren, and vows that he will be even with him, and now his plan is to bring him to the gallows.'

for the unfortunate hares which he routed out of 'I mean that this is what you told me yourself their damp forms to relieve his extreme dullness the day before yesterday,' I answered. You of spirits, nor for the flocks of gulls that had been even mentioned names; but it can't be managed, driven inland by the storm. I hurried on as if it really can't, although Herr von Granow has life and death depended upon my reaching Tran- considered the matter from every side.' tow five minutes earlier or later; and yet it was but too certain that Hans, when I had taken him into my confidence, would be as much at a loss as myself. But Hans von Trantow was a good fellow, and a devoted friend of Herr von Zehren, as I well knew. And then he loved Constance: for Constance's sake, even if he had no other reason, he must help me to save Constance's father, if any rescue was now possible.

And so I tore along. Under my steps jets of water sprang from the marshy soil into which I often sank to the ankles; the rain dashed into my face, and the gulls screamed as they wheeled above my head.

From Zanowitz to Trantow was a half-hour's journey, but it seemed to me an age before I reached the house, a bald and desolate-looking building even in the sunshine, and now doubly forlorn and cheerless in the rain. In front of the one-storeyed dwelling with its eight tall poplars, whose slender summits were wildly swaying in the storm, stood Granow's hunting wagon and horses. That detestable fellow was there then, but no matter for that; I must speak with Hans von Trantow alone, if I had first to pitch Herf von Granow out of the door.

Entering, I found the gentlemen at breakfast: a couple of empty bottles on the table showed that they had been sitting there some time already. Granow changed color at my entrance. It is probable that with my heated and agitated face, my clothes saturated with rain, and my hunting boots covered with the sand of the dunes and the mud of the moor, I presented a rather startling appearance, and the little man had not, in reference to me, the clearest conscience in the world. Trantow, without rising at my entrance, reached a chair and drew it up to the table, then gave me his hand, and nodded his head toward the bottles and the dishes. His good-natured face was already very red, and his great blue eyes rather glassy; it She had begun to cry, but wiped away the tears was plain that the empty bottles were to be set with her hand, and went on :

'I can do nothing more. See if you can do anything; and do not be uneasy on my account, even if "he" learns that it was my doing.'

Her face suddenly flushed to a deep crimson; but the brave girl was determined to say all that she had to say, and she added:

'I have been talking with my aunt, and my aunt will keep me with her, and as she has a great number of friends here, he will not venture to give her any trouble. And now I must go back: run quickly down the dune; they can not see you below there; and good-bye!'

I pressed her hand and hurried down the high bare dune, which was surrounded by a number of other lesser ones confusedly heaped together and overgrown with beach-grass and broom, between which I was tolerably safe from observation. Still I kept on in a crouching attitude and did not raise myself to an erect posture until I had gone a hundred paces or so over the heath, where concealment was no longer possible. When I looked back to the white dune, Christel was nowhere to be seen: she had evidently seized a favorable moment to slip back unobserved into the village.

CHAPTER XV.

Caro probably saw no reason, as I rather ran than walked along the narrow path leading over the heath to Trantow, to be more satisfied than before with his master's proceedings. I no longer spoke to him as I had been doing; I had no eye

chiefly to his account.

'You have certainly not been out shooting in this horrible weather?' asked Herr von Granow, with sudden friendliness, and politely placed bread, butter, and ham before me, which, in spite of all my anxiety, I attacked with energy, for I was nearly famished, and the hot air of the room had given me a sensation of faintness.

'We have been sitting here these two hours,' he went on, and were just deliberating how we should spend the day. I proposed cards, but Hans will not play; he says he means to give it up. Gambling is a vice, he says.'

'So it is,' muttered Hans.

'Only when he wins, you understand,' said Granow, laughing at his own wit. He considers it vicious to take from other people the money which they very likely need. He has no need of money himself; have you Hans?'

'Got no use for it,' said Hans.

I uttered the last words in an ironical tone, turning to Hans as I spoke. Hans, whose head was never particularly clear, could catch no glimpse of my meaning at all; but Herr von Granow understood me perfectly.

'A jest should not be taken more seriously than it is meant,' he said, pouring himself out a glass of wine with a hand that visibly shook.

'Or better, one should not venture to jest upon certain subjects at all,' I retorted, following his example.

'I am old enough not to need any admonitions from you,' said the little man, with a pitiful attempt to assume an intimidating tone.

And yet you have not yet learned to bridle your tongue,' I replied, looking him steadily in the face.

'It seems you intend to insult me, young man,' he cried, setting down hastily the glass of which he had only tasted.

'Shall I make that fact clearer to you by throwing this glass in your face?'

'Gentlemen! gentlemen!' cried Hans. 'Enough!' exclaimed the little man, pushing back his chair and rising; 'I will bear these insults no longer: I will have satisfaction, if this gentleman is entitled to be dealt with in that way.'

'My father is a respectable officer in the Customs,' I answered; 'my grandfather was a minister, and so was my great-grand father. Yours was a shepherd, was he not?'

'We shall meet again,' cried the little man, rushing out of the room and banging the door after him. In another moment we heard his carriage rattling over the pavement of the court. [CONTINUED NEXT WEEK.]

The counting was proceeded with until the vote of Louisiana was reached, when Representative Mullins, of Tennessee, objected to its being counted.
