" Miss Winifred I-oh, Miss Winifred I" They glanced at each other, and the same dread fell upon both. Lancelot sprang up the stairs and met Bridget on the landing She threw up her hands wildly. "Oh, air!" she quavered, "Madam's gone!" Me looked back at Winifred. She was leaning against the wall, white and trem« Wing. " Wbydid you not call her in time!" he said angrily. "Indeed, then, I just closed my eyes for a minute, air — only one minute. . . ." " And in that minute she died 1" "Eh then, good Lord, sir I I didn't say she were dead f She's gone, I tell 'cc .p " Gone I" "Ay, gone—her bed emnty, an' the quilt strippitoff, an' the night|lamp reft from the table I—an' here we stand haverin' and shatterin' whilst we might be seeking of her. Thinking she must be mad o' dreaming, the young mau snatched the candle from her hand, [and rushed to Miss Langtrey's room. The door stood wide; the bed was empty ; the bed-clothes were dragged aside. ' All was as she said. As for the bed, it was ! quite cold—as cold as if it had not been occupied for hours. ' ■;' Whnt, then, had bcccme of her,?. They did not even ask each other, except by broken exclamations. Breathlessly, con. fusedly, they'ran from-chamber to chamber, j calling looking, listening. She was not in '• Winifred's room. Neither was she in any of the empty rooms beyond. ; If not upstairs, she must be downstairs; : and yet that she should have had strength I to get down seemed incredible. ; They searchedjtlie oak parlour; the store., i room ; Bridget's little sitting-room ; last of, all, the kitchen. Beyond the kitchen lay the great old kitchen of former days, ami ; other unused offices ; but the door of com. ■ tnunication was barred and locked, and had; been so for years, ; " She must be in the house," said Lance* lot. r , " Then, with a sudden catching of his breath, he exclaimed : — 1' Good God I the light—the light in the long gallery!" They had forgotten it in the suddenness of their terror; but now His first impulse was to vndo the door of . communication ; but the bolts were rusty and the key gone; so they hadnoresourcebut to turn back by way of the courtyard, and the courtyard—all diiving mist under a canopy of dark in which there was no sign of dawn wasl as Lancelot said, " alabyrinth of pools." "In such a night 1" said Winifred, shiveringly, "In such weather. ~ ,- Oh, Lancelot 1 it is impossible.,' "I fear it is only too true," he said. " Give me the light—see there 1" The door of the old banqueting hall was; ajar—the key was in the lock—the thresh' hold was splashed and streaked, as by the trailing of wet garments. These streaks went all along the floor getting fainter towards the upper end, and ceasing upon the narrow stairs leading up to the gallery, At the top of the&taiw Winifred hung back, trembling; but Lancelot pushed open the door and went in. She was either there, or had been there, Her lampßtood on the floor, about half-way along the gallery flickering low, and all but out. Beyond it, all was dark. . "Aunt Hester!—dear Aunt Hester, where are you ?" . . Her voice seemed to wander down the gallery and lose itself in whispering echoes. Hesitatingly they went forward, Lancelot holding high the light, Winifred following. All at once they stopped. What was that? It sounded like a low chuckling langb. Seized with an inexpressible dread the girl clung co her companion and uttered an involuntary cry. " Hush !—she is there 1 She must not be startled. Steady, (dear—you need all your courage." She was there-half-lying on the floor, half-sitting, between the last window and the raised dai sat the] end of the gallery. Her head was and her eyes glistened from under a tangle of wet grey bair. She had on a loose dressing-gown of some dark stuff, outside which she had rolled herself in the quilt, as if conscious of the cold. As they drew near, she looked away, and laughed again, and muttered to herself. l.ii- , ■"'■■■ " We must make haste," she said ; " or we shall not be ready in time. It's a pity the flowers are all over; but there are plenty of evergreens. Bridget remembers how we decked the walls when he came of age—- a but that was in May, and now it. is November. Where's Winifred? Why is she so long dressing ? Does she know that fhe Queen is comw. and that her undo has won his law-suit?" " Dearest Aunt Hester, I am here." : Miss Langtrey looked at her vaguely* "No, no—not you;" she said. "I want Winifred—lsentforWinifred. Herinother is gone to Jamaica, you know, t . . _Be • sure they don't forget the lights this time in the.musicians gallery. Did you hear the bells ? They rang just like that the day he came of age. . . . We sent the ringers a barrel of beer to drink his health, and they must have the same to-day." • . . "Her'hands and feet are"like ice," said; Winifred, the tears running down Heir/ cheeks. "How shall we get her back J' What is to be done ? ' V "Done?" she said, catching up the last: word. "There's a great deal to be done yet . . . there's an ox to be roasted whole, and we have no red cloth to lay downj When the Queen comes into the hall. They say it was strewn with rushes when she was here before; but that was in the olden, time before you and I were born !" | Then, with a sudden change of mood, she' moaned and wailed, and rocked herself to and fro. " Poor Stephen! poor Stephen! You come too late to save him ! I bave paid off the mortgage; but it is of no use. now. He is dead and gone—dead and gone—the last of his name !" " Where is Bridget ?'' cried Winifred dis pairingly. " Why doesn't fihe come?" . "I called to her to bring some warm wraps," replied Lancelot, " I thought she was following us. Will you be afraid to stay here a few moments while I—-Ah, thank heaven. Here is Dr. Saunders." Dr. Saundera, pulling off his great coat as he came along ; Kenben splashed from bead to foot; Bridget with an armful of shawls; Joan, the dairy wench, .pale and frightened, and carrying a lantern—they were all there. Miss Langtrey shrank back, and pushed away the shawls -which Winifred tried to wrap rouud her. "I don't know him;" she whispered cowering. "I don't like I his eyes. Tell him to go away—tell him he is not invited J" Then, plucking at Bridget's sleeve :— "Hush;" she said, "this is a'great" occasion! 'Tis a pity we sold the plate; but we have the Queen's tankard still. i> You'll find it, in the oak chest in your maater's bedroom. Will she remember it, do yon think ? That was two hundred and fifty years ago, and no one has drunk from it since." They had laid her now upon a pile of rugs. . Winifred, sitting beside her on the floor, supported her "head, while Joan and. ; Bridget chafed her hands and feet. ■'Had we not better carry her back to her own room, and get her into bed?" asked Lancelot, taking the, physician ■ apart. Buc Dr Sannders shook'his head. " It is useless to torment her," ho said. ; "But the cold of this place will kill her 1' "My dear "lord Brackenbury, the poor, lady is dying," ; .; Dying! Lancelot could not believe it. That she should have had strength to get up ana come all this way, and yet be dying, seemed to him impossible. _ " You may see how she has changed withr b in these last few minntes," said the physi cian, The fictitious energy of delirium is already spent. Her voice is perceptibly: weaker; her pulse more feeble at every beat." ! She was lying back now, exhausted, but , muttering always. Then she closed her eyes, and teemed for a moment as if she slept; but waked with a start, and bade them seat her on the throne. "I am too ill to dance," she said," but I will look on. Why don't they bring more lights ? Yes, the music may begin. W here is my lord of Leicester ? »Ye know your motto, Sir Marmaduke—"Langtrey: Loy ault6.' The Langtrey S were ever loyal; but they are fallen—fallen-fallen." She shivered murmured 'something about its being "a cold welcome for a Queen"— smiled—waved her haod fantastically leaned her head against-the back of the chair— closed. h«. »aw cgain—sighed twice or thrice—tlieu Jfs?H breathed, sighed no , more. ;'""'";:.'", '■■ ~ .

I havo been a great sufferer . for the last threo yosrs with chest complaint, during which time I havo been frequently under the care of Bkilful medical men, both in New r Zealund and tho neighbouring colonies, but cannot say I cvor experienced any bcnoflcia effect from their treatment. Last summer 1 commenced taking your Lime Mixture, and am happy to inform you that I have been steadily improving weekly over since—notwithstand' 1 ing two or three severo colds I have had this wmtor-and am'now almost free from com plaint, and onn safoly say, undoubtedly it is the • best modicino I havo ever taken, and as a sooth' I ing expectorant it ii< not to bo equalled. I give you my name and address, not for publication, but as a gunranteo that what I state hero ie truthful, and should you at any time wish to refer any person to me, I shall bo most happy to • inform thorn of tho benefit* to be derived from ■ a fair [trial of your invaluable mixture.--I am &0., M.F.D.

Many others suffering. from Bronohial and Lung Complaints have borne witness to tho un questionable efficiency of in t cases r where tho usual remediea have failed. The effect upon those afflicted with that dreadful disease CONSUMPTION, and Its kindred chest affections, is best described in the language of one- who experienced benefit, as foilowß :- " A fter commencing the medicine tho expectoration came away freely, my cough appeared to bo naturally relieved, aid I could then sleep at night, although it was impossible to get quiet sleep previously—my cheat Beemed to have a weiitht lifted off it, and I could take a breath with freedom. My appetite is} better, and I feel altogether stronger, and in a fair way to recovery.' This is literally the language of many who havo tried tho Syrup of Eucalyptus with Hypophosphites of Lime and Quinine. This is a pharmecutical preparation of genuine worth, deserving the cordial acceptance Of the Faculty and tho Public. SOLD IN BOTTLES AT 3s 6d BACH. MANUFACTURED AT "TUB PHARMACY aUEKN-STKET.
