(Continual from Mid pa£t.) ]) is a morning-robe of pearl-grey Indian cashmere lined with salmon-pink, and trimmed with old Abruzzi lace, that brotiaht tears of spite to Mrs Caldicott's eyes when she saw it 1 And as for the uuderliuen, all marked with your initials in cypher surmounted by an angelic little coionet Well, I can't trust myself to speak of it in vulgar prote. The Cartel rosso herself, at all events, has none more exquisite. The one thing that has grieved me is your wedding-dre-s. I had set ray heart on white satin-that creamy white which Rubens and Vandyke painted, you know, with gold-coloured reflections in the folds !It was a blow to me, to be tied down to plaiu white ' gros-grain.' But you would have it so ; and I could only submit under protest. Then, to be caudid, I must say I think the aflair ought to come oil'at the British Embassy—people in your position, you know Ah, well, the circumstances, of course, are exceptional ; but for all that, I cannot help wishing the marriage wasn't going to be so dreadfully private !" " Now tell me some of your own news, said Winifred, when Mrs Pennefeathcr punctuating her discourse at arbitray inter vals with hugs aud kisses, stopped at last from sheer want of breath. " Happy is the nation, my dear, that has no history. I have no news of my own, ex cept what ycu know nlicady ; and that is os good as it can well be. Our troubles are all over, and we have begun to live happy ever after. The Hermitage ? No—we hare not yet given up The Hermitage, because we don't know how soon our beautiful new Vicarage will 1)3 icady for occupation ; but wehaveshuttlio house up.sorciiely conscious that there's nothing in it which tbe least ambitious burglar would care to steal. If only the children keep well, and Barbara will submit to be bored hy them for a few weeks longer, I hope to got Derwent in the niiud to go back by way of the Khinc and Brussels. It has been one of my dreams to >cc the Khiue —' the castled crag of Drachenfels,' you know, aud ' the peasant [■iris with deep-blue eyes,' and all the rest of it. Do tor the scene of a novel ?Ah no I my dear ; onco settled on Burfkld Moor, I shall have something better to do than to a rite third-rate novels for second-rate pub lishers. Oh, I have never deceived myself as to the worth of my own productions ! They aic nuthing but pot-boilers, my dear — pot-boilcre of the thorny aid brambly sort, crackling dismally under a pot which never had too much in it. Some day, perhaps yearn to come, when (lie children are crown up, and 1 have discorered the true meaning .\nd application of tbat obscure word, ' Leisure,' I may write one more story— just to show people that, after all, I am not quite such a fool a* tluy take me for. But for literature, leisure and industry in equal parts is your only genuine prescription. What good book was ever written under prci&uic of haste and poverty? Its all very well to talk of nccefsity being the mother of invention ; but 'I' never found a .-eilimentnry deposit of pure fiction at the bottom of a file of unpaid bills, ordrew deep diaughts of loiuatitic inspiration fiom an empty lardxr ! No, »y dear Winifred, I havndono with noval-writing as a drudgery ; and if ever I tike it \\y again, it shall be as a luxury, But what were we talking about -news * Well, I bare norm of my own, and none of my neighbours' ; that is to siy, none worth repeating. Yon know, of course, fiat Viscount Frenchay i« dead -the honid o'd reprobate '. Such a funeral ai they cay« 1i n, too ! Plumes and trappiugn, and all ill? panoply <>f bum bug, with seventeen private Ciiniagei b.iuaiug up the tear! Hut such is fashionable woe. Instead of wliclding tears for you, Society sheds car riages. Then there's Lady Symes, just returned from LondoD, a? old—and us youug—as ever; looking as if she might hare been born any time In twecn the Mammiferous Period and the rlsiy before yeslerdav. Sim called to con gratulate ub upon Deiwent's preferment; aid did it, of course, as spitefully as eve: .■lie knew how. 'You'll be buried alive, Mrs Penii'lcather.' she said ; ' but then, you know, the man who wants to live st poace with his neighbours mutt inhabit a ('osert islaud. You'll at all eTenti be out of the way of such tiresome people as myself.' To which I replied tbat even the advantages n! premature interment would be dearly purchased at the price of her ladyship's visits. She inquired after you, and I.told her you were still iv Munich ; and then she -iid that Mr Fink aud the Countess had 1 st been beard of at Constantinople, and were not expected home befere Midsummer. Now I think I have told you all the gossip of Langtrey and iti neighbourhood." This conversation—or, more correctly, this monologue—took place in an upper chamber of tbe Hotel Maulick where Lancelot had retained rooms lor his guests. And his quests Mr. and Mrs. Pennefeather were to be as long as they remained iv Munich, They ttayed just one fortnight ;at the end of which time Lancelot Brackenbury ;iud Winifred SaY««e were married one morning In the Bavarian Protestant Chapel; then an ugiy little red-brick building in a i y-street opening from the Schrannen- Platz, in the Old Quarter of the city. Mr IVnuefcather read the service ; Paster Krcutzmann gave the bride away ; and Kii'chcn and lirenda did duty as brides maids. Guest«, musicians, cards, rejoicings, there WL-re none. Not even the marriago of (Vsari- Donato ami Giulietta Btni was more absolutely private. In the meanwhile, carefully as their *:crct had been guarded by the high con trading parties, it leaked out somehow or another, up in the '■' North Countree ;" and, despite all Lancelot's precautions the bells of Brackeubury and Singleton rang at joyous Intervals throughout his wedding day. CHAPTER LIX. AT THE OLD VILLA. "It is useless. The place is gone to ruin, and deserted." " King once more, at all events !" said the lady in the carriage to the geutleman at the gate!"' " I haie done nothing but ring once more for the last quarter of an hour. However, to oblige you, I will begin again." And strain ho pulled furiously at the iron chain; and again they heard the prolonged pealing of a dittant bell. It was a narrow road, closed in by high white walls and over-shadowed by the meeting boughs of acacias, laburnums, and mulberry-trees growing in private grounds on either side. The carriage—a hired one, drawn by a pair of active little Neapolitan little hacks—waited at the entrance to what looked like a large Tilla standing in a con siderable space ot neglected shrubbery. The resty gates showed traces of faded gilding. The semi-circular area in front of these gates, and the carriage-drive within, were grass-grown and weedy. The house or as much of it as was visible between the trees, looked rambling, diDgy, and dilapi dated. "One might riug till Doomsday !" said the dcutleraan, after another impatient attack upon the bell. " But if there is really a custode ". . , ; " It there is really a custode, that custode must be out, asleep, or dead ; and in either case, I submit that it is ahcer waste of time to wait for him longer, iWe must drive over another day, and hope for better fortune." Then, turning to the driver, he snid, with his hand on the carriage-door—" Back to Sorrento.1' But as he put his foot on the step, a little bare-footed, brown-skinned girl with black locks flying, came racing to the gate. She carried a big key which s'ie was only just tall enough to'put into the lock, and which, with both little hands, she had scarcely strength to turn. " Are you the custode ?" asked the Eng lishman, smiling. Showing a double row of glittering teeth, the small girl shook her head and explained how her father kept the keys, and how, after running all over the house to look for him, she had at last found him in the grounds, at tending upon another party of visitors. "Nobody has been to look over the villa for more than a year," she said, chattering away with the easy volubility of a woman of forty. "But Ecco!-it is always like that you know—' the net comes in empty, or it breaks through with the fish.' The villa | is to be let furnished or unfurnished. It contains twenty-six rooms, besides kitchens, oflices. and stables; and the situation is the beat in Cnstellamare. ' Vosslgnorie ' will be pleased to come round to the kitchen entrance; the big doors are locked," They followed her down a rath leading to the back of the house, and across a paved yard, In the middle of which there was a draw-well surmounted by a pictuicsque wroMght-iron canopy. It"was a neglected, forlorn-looking place ; grass growing between th<s stones underfoot; window panes cracked ; shutters hanging from broken hinges ; paiot blistered ; cocks aud hens scratching about on heaps of vegetable refuse which looked as if. they might have been accumulating for years. Entering the house by a side-door and leaving to the left a room whence issued a confused steam of washing, cooking, and garlic the strangers followed their guide along a stone passage, through a vaulted corridor, and into a spacious hall paved with black and white marble, Here a fine double stair case supported on massive scagliola columns led to a gallery from which the upper rooms opened ; while, through a central sky

light, a flood of sunshine streamed down upon the pavement. " This is tbe hall you told me about Lancelot—the hall iv which your people used to dance the Sultirella by t rchlijjnt " whispers the lady, clinging more cloiely to bcr husband's tttm, "Ycu dcscii-cd it to me on Christmas Eve—do you remembei '«'' Silently, tadly he looks round, ili* thoughts have g"no back to the far past and he is slow to answer. " Yes ; I remember.'' The stair?, the balustrades, the walls, are coated with du-t. The marble;, floor h grimed like a Btreet pavement ; and; in every corner and nook, and behind every pillar, lie drifted heap) of dead leaves straws, scraps of torn paper, and the like. " ' Yossiguorie' will be pleased to take the trouble to follow me," says the emull girl, darting forward to fling open a lofty door ; and rattling off her lesson with eager self-importance. "Ihe reception-roouia are all on the ground-floor. The ceilingi are from mythological designs by Pictro di Cortona ; the room.s ate named after the subjects of the frescoes. We are now in the Saloon of Liana. Here one sees the god dess attired by her nymphs— yonder she pur«ueß the wild buar; in the third com partment, she returns with the trophies of the cha«e. The dogs are painted by a German artist, and they are considered very tine. The next room v the Saloon of Mars" . . . . , But this waa too mucli for Lancelot Braekenbury's patience. " Enough, my little maiden,' he said, abruptly. "1 know it all. 1 have been' here befere. The small guide was silenced, but in credulous. Sue was eight years old, and had lived in the empty villa as long as she could remember. All who came to view the place she had seen ; but these two she had never seen. She fell back, however, and followed instead of leading. They went on from room to room • from the Saloon of Diana to the Saloon of Venus from the Saloon of Venus, to the Saloon of Apollo —huge, echoing, melancholy apart ments big enough for conceit rooms, with floors of mixed tessera; in coloured marbles, like petrified ' pate de foie gras.' Here mirrors black with dust alternated upon the walla with panels of faded arabesques, while all the gods of Olympus sprawled overhead oa diogy cloud?, oijiispotttd tbe.i;> stives in-,laudscape3 .of .blue and green. Most of these rooms were quite bare ; but in one or two there were pyramidal heaps of furniture draped with dusty sheets which tiok fantastic forms, and looked as if they might cover funeral pyres and heaps of ■•lain. '•Did you ever ccc anything so mourn ful/ paid Lancelot. "It is like a house desolated by plague 1 And yet, somehow, I would rather see it like this—empty and dilapidated—than modernised out of arecog union, and full of alien faces. I could almost fancy now that no one haslivcdhere since we left the place sixteen years ago." Then, turniDg to the child who was following close at their heels, he asked how long the house had been untenan ted. This, however, she did not, or would no know. It had been empty for some time - two years, perhaps ; possibly three. Her father would be here presently, an could antwer the Sitmore's questions. ! Would the Signore meanwhile be pleased to take the trouble to visit the rooms up .tairs? He shook his head. "There is nothing to tee overhead but • nice after mite of bedrocmv' he said, u<ldr"=''']'_' himprlf to Winifred. "Buti you don't mind climbing a good many stairs, 1 should like to thow you the view from the loggia in the tower. No—this way. It is nearer lo cross the terrace than to go back through the hall." So saying, he led the way to a side-room opening from tbe Saloou of Apollo, and decorated with panels of 'futes champGtrea' in the Watteau ttyle. " This," lie iaid, undoing the fastenings of a window that opened on a paved terrace beyond, " was my mothers boudoir. It f-pw, you see, to tlie south. SbeJivedupon sunshine. Sometime?, when she was well enough, poor darling I her couch was carried outside, and placed under the orange trees—there used to be a row of them, in tubs, all along the terrace. Sixteen years ano I .... It seems like yesterday." The terrace—decorated at intervals with sculptured vases full of trailing ivy—over looked a desolate garden laid out in formal bed?, where flowers and weeds ran wild. Beyond the garden, all was lawn and shrubbery, with distant glimpses of the Larbour of Castcllamare. Still going first, Lancelot went on to a door at the furlher end of the terrace. It stood a]ar, and admitted them to a basp. nicnt chamber, used apparently as a store house fur garden lumber. Hence, by a staircase with m.nv landings, they made iheir way to a loggia under the roof. This bpgia, open on ali sides and surrounded by i parapet, commanded a view which is certainly one of the niO't beautiful, and is i erhaps the most famous, in the world. The crescent bay, purple and emerald under the rooky headlands, bluer than the bluest summer sky out in the open, lay ouN stretched before them, from Miseno to Sorrento. Iscliia and I'rocida, bathed in sun mist, slept like cloud-islands on the Wesi tern horizon. Naples, aud the scattered villages between Portico aud Torre dell' gleamed like a string of scat terei pearlsaloDg " the beached margentof the sea ;" while Vesuvius, rising out of verdure into barrenness, gathering villages, vineyards, and corn-slopes in the folds of her mighty mantle, lifted her lire-smitten cone and plume of faint brown smoke against the stainless sky. So still, so distant was the scene, that not even the tiny steamer cresting from Naples to Sorrento seemed in motion. The fishing barks with transverse sails gleaming here and there against the dlue, looked like sea-birds asleep on the waters. Not even the floating island of tunny-ccis guarded, nearer shore, by a flotilla of flat-bottomed hosts, betrayed the faintest sign of groundswell from beneath. All was as fixed, as placid, as unreal, as a painted panorama. Lancelot and 'Winifred leaned, side by side, upon the parapet. Long and silently they gazed on sea and shore, island and mountain and sky. For weeks they had been wandering together, wedded loveis, happy with the first happiness of perfect urjion. Together they had picked the myrtle blooms in the pillared shade of .Egina; together listened to the murmur ing of the bees on the thyme-tufted slopes of Hymettus, aud to the nightingale singing at midday in the pomegranate thickets on the banks ot Ilhsus. By moon light they had trodden the drifted petals of thefrail doc-rose in the marble porticoes of the Acropolis at Athens, lingered at gnn set In the temple solitudes ot Girgcnti, and gathered purple asphodel in the plains di; Prestum. Colour, aud form and light, splendour of morn and even, pathos of iuin, and the teuder grace of a vanished past, had been with them at every stage in their pilgrimage ; but neither in Greece, nor in Sicily, nor on the lone shores of Posidonia, had they stayed to look upon a scene more fair than this. It was no new scene, cither, for they were staying now at Sorrento, and saw it from their windows every day. ! "Is it crcr anything but summer.here?' asked Winifred, dreamily. "I am sorry to *ay, it is occasionally winter. I have seen leaden skies, and persistent rains, and even fogs and frosts, in ibis fairyland of roses aud suushiue. I have seen Vesuvius white with snow, like a smoky bride-cake.'| '•Andyouhaveseen Vesuviusia erruplion, too !" she said, quickly. "Well, that is a rather forcible way of expressing it,"he auswered, smiling. "I have seen showers of red-hot stones and cinders, followed now and then by a fiery streak of lava ; but that is only what every Neapolitan sees twice or thrice a year. We don't call those little freaks and spurts by so fine a name as eruptions." '■ I wish the mountain would be pleased toindulge in a frsak before we go away/ said Winifred. Lancelot pulled out Ms field-glass and scanned the summit long and critically. " I think it not impossible that your wish may be gratified," he said, handing her the gtess. "Do you see those patches of pale yellow about the mouth of the crater? That is fresh sulphur : and we used to observe a deposit of fresh sulphur pretty surely in dicated a coining display of fireworks. In the meanwhile, however, it we are to make the ascent of the mountain, we had better do it within the next day or two." " Oh, but I should like best to co when there is something to be seen !" she said eagerly. You would not like to be stifled by sulphur-fumes and peppered with rcd-liot stones ?' said Lancelot. "At all events, I should not like it for you. Besides, you have no idea " . . He broke off abruptly. " Look there !" he paid, in an altered voice. Following the direction of his eyes, Wini fred saw three persons—a lady and gentle man, accompanied by a gardener in a blouse —crossing a spare pf open lawn between the trees, about a quarter of a mile away.

Uextlemkn,—Having Buffered from eczema (a skin diacaso which is very prevalent in this colony) for about nine years, I had consulted numerous medical men hero and in Australia, and had taken arsenic, strychnine, iodide of potassium, etc., internally, nnd had used pre parations of zinc and lead externally. In fact I had tried all the remedies known to tho faculty, and what between travelling doctoru and druggists' bills, had spent a small fortune, almost if not wholly without results, except to injure my constitution. During a recant visit to Hokitika I was recommended to try your Extract of Eucalyptus Globulus by a brother who had experienced great benetlt from it in alleviating a very revere cold, and, no less to my surpriso than satisfaction, 1 found tho diseaso which had troub ed mo bo long was conquered, and tho skin resumed iU normal condition, This was effected by iho external nso of less than two oneouueo bottles.

Agent for New Zealand : GRAVES AICKIN, Thk Pharmacy, Auckland A Thur Story.—A palo, thin, and anxious looking man went into a druggist's shop in Queon-itroet, a»d told tho chemist tho story of his troubles. Ho was a sufferer from a chronio chwt complaint, which inflicted him with many slceplfcs nuIHH. owing lo tho incessant cough. His chest fell tight and constxacted in breathinv, and tho tenacious phlegm was a continual source of annoy»»ceandirritation. Ho feared ho was consumptive, and that thore was not much to bo done, as he had tried everything: how? ever, as a last resource ho would try Aickin's Sirup oi- Kucalyptus, with Hvi>ophos I'hites of Lime and Quinine. Having pro cured a bottlo. tho chemi»t advised him to show It to his medical man. as it was not a quack remedy, but purely a pharmcc'utical prepara tion of great value. In addition, he shonid adhere to small doses of pure cod liver oil, which could bo taken at tho samo time as th eucalyptus a»d Hypophosphitcs. A fortnight parsed, aid tho ranie pale, delicato-looking man returned to the shop in ynoen-street, and asked for hiß friend tho chemist. The invalid then re counted, with a bright oye and hopeful face, tho cirects of tho wondcful medicine. " I soon found tho worrying phlegm become moro liquid, and expectoration was quite free, conso uent'y I was relieved from tho dreadful cough, I feel so th&ukful I can now Bleep at nights Dnringthoday I feel a mountain lifted off my chest, and I can eat heartily and relish my food, which 1 could never do before," Do you think it possible this improvement -would havo taken place in ordinary courso without tho medicine?—" Certainly not," tho invalid replied, " I had suffered too long for that; however, I Bhall take two bottles more, and report to you further." About a fortnight since the came person called upon tho chemist, He was no longer pale nor careworn; a tinge of healthy red had returned to the pale features of the now con valescent patient. Ho had merely to say, "I have called to tell you that I consider your medicine (tho Eucalyptus with Hypophoaphitcs) has saved my life. I feel I am getting bettor rapidly, and I should tell you that although I have had remedies prescribed for me in Sydney, Melbonrno, and other pluccb, nothing relieved mo until I got your medicino.
