AM Agnes Grey, or at least that was my name when, one bright summer day, tho sky us blue ns though t h e r e never could bo another oloud iu it. 1 oame home across fields from Nellie H o b a rt’s wedding, when my foot caught in tbe grass, where some boys had tied it, aurl down I fell, twisting iny ankle aud hurting my head so the t for a whilo I know noth ing. ” At last I felt some ono lift mo off the ground, nnd opened my eyes to see that it was a g reat, swarthy, black- eyed girl of seventeen or so —a girl withall her tangled curls tucked under • dress which wss not ladylike, but she had the voice and manner of a lady, and she asked mo very kindly if I were much h u r t; and, seeing that I was, picked me ap in her stroug arms, and carried mo through a garden gate, and into a littlo parlor, where she laid me on a sofa and bathed mythead with rose water, and told rauJo keep up my courage for \GideonAlad gone for a doctor.” i t That name told mo w h e rei/w a s. I was under a roof that I had never thought would shelter ino, no m atter what camo to pass. I would have riseh and gone uway, if I conld have stirred from tho odd old sofa, for this was Gideon Leod’s old homestead, and here dwelt tho children of the man who, sixteen years before, had been hung for the murder of my Undo Matthew. I was but a baby when it all happened, but I could remember how the wholo village was astir in search of the missing man, and how a body wao found, at last, in the heart of Alcott's woods, and how tho facts that there had been a quarrel between Gideon Lee aud Undo Mutthuw, and that Gideon Lee owed the latter money, and how they wore last seen together quarreling iu Gidoon'a gar den, where a bloody handkerchief marked M. G. was found soou after, brought Gideon to the gallcws. P e r haps hearing tho story afterward from my grandfather mado mo faucy I re membered i t ; but, at all events, the name I had learned to hate was that of Gideon Lee, aud now it was the chihi born on the dAy of Lor m o ther’s death, tbe very day on whieh the fath er met his awful fate, who lifted mo from tbe ground, dusky Madge Lee, who hud uever found a playmate nor a friend iu the village, because of tbe ban upon her father’s name, and Gid eon, the son, whclmd been old enough to understand it all at the time, who came iu with old Dr. Hum p h ries soou after. Thoy wero not poor people. The gray stone houso was a substan tial one, and the farm had prospered in Gideon’s hands, and there were more books and pictures nnd tokens of refinement within than country homes generally boast o f ; but oven the fArrn hands spoke contemptuously of tho \son of tho man who was hung,” aud the servants who were hired by Madge Leo were not natives of the place. And here was T, Matthew Grey's own niece, lying uudcr tho roof, and iiko to be there some time, for the doctor forbade my removal. \I must go hom e —T must go away from this house,” I said, uugnly and feverishly. Aud Madge, looking down on mu us nn Indian priuccss might, with her dark eyes aglow, said, in a hitter voice, \Never fear. Miss Grey, we’ll not m urder you,” ami somewhat abashed me, hAughty as I wan. G rand pa was awav from home, or I think even tho risk of my life would not have kept him from taking me home; and 1 grew ill and delirious, nutl Madgo Lee nursed me a« a sister might, and Gideon was kinder than a brother. Ho found sweet dowers dripping with dew in tho woods; and he snug, as I never houtd anyone sing before, those Scottish ballads th a t are lovelier than auy other music ever written to my mind, ami it ended by my loving them. So when 1 whs well enough to go away, I took Madge’s hand in mine and said, \How shall I ever thank you for your tender care of me?” “ Ami she answered : Agnes Grey, the only gratitude I ask is belief iu us. The people down there,” au 1 she pointed with her brown hand toward the town, ‘call us the children of a murderer. We are the children of a m artyr instead. 1 never sow ray father, but we both know that hi* is luuoccnt. Your Uuolo M atthew—for give me, but it is the t r u t h —was a wild, bad fellow. He q u arreled with luy father, not father with him, nud the debt was paid. Aud for the bloody handkerchief, he' had cut his hand and unbound and washed it and tied it up airesh in mother'* very sight that day. Don't N so cruel as to doubt it, Agnes G rey.” And then she brought me the pic ture that they kept a* a sacred relic, and verses written by his hand, and tender love-letters, yellow w ith age ; sud as I looked <ft the face, so sw eet, so good, so like that of the Gideon Lee 1 who were bis m u rderers, I, at least, shall have a lighter heart.” And I put ray harnl into his, and gave the o ther to Madge, and said hon estly : \I do believe as yon do, and I al ways wilhi* A p retty scandal there was through the town when 1 began to go down to tho gray stone house to see my friends. I knew it, and fought it bravely. \Gideon Lee never killed any one,” I vowed aloud to those who chided ine. \I will not ban his children for the fault of others.” But there, in the village, wore those who had beep at the trial, uud eleven of the jurymen, and the J u d g e and the Sheriff and tho witnesses, and under a stone in the graveyard were the bones that had been sworn to as Uncle Matthew’s, and in a bleak, lonely spot —tor they refused it burial in holy ground —tho coffin of the man who was hung; and how dared I, a baby almost at the time, to judge for mv- self? I knew they were right enough, but I never faltered. I was as sure as Madge was that her father never k illed Uncle Matthew. They would not come to my home. Indeed, grandfather would have had tho door closed iu their faces, but nothing oould keep me from them. And it was dangerous work for me, too, as 1 began to kuow before long, to sit so much by Gideon Lee’s side, to hear bis voice so often, to feci my heart thrilling with a loving pity for him for which I have no words. He was my wounded and despised knight, this dear Gideon Lee, before I had known him three short months, and I would have given my life for him. But he said no word of love to me, nor I to him. ^ We wero sitting together oue even ing, when grandfather walked into our midst aud clutched mo fiercely by the arm. No need to repeat the words ho u t tered. Tho insults stung me as s h a rp ly as they oould Gideon Leo’s chil dren. But ho forbade mo over to speak to them again, and took me home with him. The last glimpse I caught of the brother und sister showed them to me standing hand-in-hand, their fingers clutched tight, thoir teeth set, their faces white with wrath, under tho bright moonlight. It. was my last glimpse for many yetis, for the day after this we sailed for England. Grandfather was an Englishman, and il was partly to revisit his uatiye land, and partly to put tlio ocean botween tho Lees and me, that ho took the voy age. But he could not tear my heart from them. I loved them bettor than any people I ever m e t; most of all, I loved Gideon. But I uever heard of him or from him, nor could guess whether he lived or died, remembered or forgot me, for three long years. At tho eud of that tim e my poor grandfather died, and I, his heiress, returned to my native land a rich wo man aud my own mistress. This codi cil to Ins will had left mo a l l : \I Henry Grey, having cause to fear that my beloved grandchild is easily misled by a rtful persons, and is not guileful enough to understand their guile, do, for hor own welfare, add this proviso, that, should she ever give her hand in marriage to the son of tho m u rderer of my sou, Matthew Grey, all claim upon tho moneys und states above bequeathed her shall be forfeited, un 1 said property go, w ith out reserve, to tho Hospital of Saint Martha and tho church a ttached there unto, to be used by the trustees of said church and institution us they see fit.” But, despite this codicil, I went down into the valley in which Gideon Lee’s homestead stood before I had l*»eii at home a day. It was sunset when I reached it, but tho light did not, as of yore, gild the paues of tho upper windows to sheets of burnished gold. Every shutter was closed, and tho house seemed to frown upon me. Tho garden had run wild, the fields lay desolate, tho broken branches of the orchard trees told of boyish d e p re dation. Straugo cattle grazed in the meadow, and Hover’s keunel was empty. I wont up to the old porch and fouud there, wet with rain and tangle I in the dead relics of last year’s morning- glory vine, a scarlet ribbon, one Madge must h ive worn. No one could tell me a n y thing of Gideon Lee’s children, except what the empty houso had told m e - - that they were gone. I had lost them. 1 was not happy, 1 could not be gay. I could not care for a n y thing very much, and I lived a quiet life for two long yearn, aud let those call me cold aud proud who would, I was uot cold, but those who courted me wero Gideon Lee’s ene mies, aud had persecuted pretty M aige since her new birth, and had done their innocent father to death, and I had hated tlioniTor it, though f said nothing. But at last, one bright morning, walking up tlid-' road to look ut the desolate dwelling where I had como to lovo Gideon Lee’s children, I saw n change iu it. The windows were open; a man was at work in the gar- dou. Three figures in traveling cos tume had just entered tho broad porch, and a carriage stood at the gate. I knew Gideon’s tall figure at a glance; but who was this--superb, glowing, beautiful, with a look of t r i umph on her face—wbo came toward me? Aud who was that old man, with the strange, sarcastic smile, that I fancied I had seen before? As I advaucod, I knew that it wa® Madge—Madge, grown to be a mag- uificent woman—Mauge, who kissed me a* of yore, and w ho left me in a moment alone with Gideon, and drew the stranger away with her. Aud Gideon held my hand, and I could only sav , \It has been very long,” aud try to bide ray tears! \ I t has been long for me, Agnes!” Ire said. And then there was a pause. He broke it by saving : \You are Miss Agnes Grey, and tho world honors you. I am the son of the man who was huug. Even now, ng you a* I do—aa I have all this weary while-—that stands between us, a barrier you could not cross. Is it uot #o? W ere 1 all else lam not. aud so w orthy of yon, 1 should still be Gideon Lee, and an outcast branded ou could I knew, I felt sure -that those who stood before rao, though they were the children of the man who was hung, were not the offspnug of a murderer. And afterwards Oi leou also spoke. \ I t is hard for n* to bear,” ho said with Gain’s brand, aud •—\hard to know that we must bear it ! neither love nor wed m e!\ all our lives; but, if vou only see the j Could I say, “ I tove y o u 1’’ It wa- tru th —if oulj without proof you will , not in maidenhood to do that.

I havo forgotten the words that told him that I loved him too well to doubt uny courage to bear anything for hif sake. But suddenly, as ho knelt there, looking*up into my eyes, I saw a look ia his face that I could not. under stand—a look that made me cry o u t ; and I saw the othors draw near, nnd 1 saw Madge clasp her brother’s hand, and the old man held out both of his to me. \W o have been parted five y e a rs,” said Gideon. \In that time I have beoix 4 searching for something that I believed must be hidden iu the wide world. I have found i t.” \W h a t is i t , ” I cried. \Could auy earthly thing but one embolden me to speak as I havo spoken to you?” said Gideon. \D o you think that I would ever have offered any woman a name that would have made her an outcast? That which I sought, that which I found, was a living proof of my father’s inuocence. Look! do you not know this m an?” And I turned my eyes upon the old mau, who had taken my baud in his, nnd I knew that I looked upon my Unolo Matthew. Tho whole town knowns tho story now. He has told them how, yielding to his wandering impulses, ho loft, as he had done once before, tho homo and friends of his early mauhood, aud, far from all news of Christian lands, dwelt in the Arab’s tout upon the desert, and wandered with him ovor the burning sands, loving the life too woll to leave it, aud never heariag of Gideon Lee’s unjust condemnation, or of his terrible fate, until his son stood before him. They speak of Gideon Leo’s children now ns of those of a m artyr, and tho ban is lifted from tho name that I have taken for my own. SCIENTIFIC ANlTINDUSTRIAL.
