As you ore bis solo surviving relative, and ho has left no will, you will enter into the possession of your fortune Irumulbtely after a fow legal formalities liavo been complied with." Beatrix Saltoun's fuir face was very grave and buslness-liko oa she listened to tho statement of the lawyer. Jib had known tho dead man well; he had also known Beatrix's father -the bright, versatile genius, who, on his doath-i>ed, had striven to luten-st his brother in tho daughter he waa leaving to tho teuder mercy of tho world, and striven In vain. "Ho would not leave tho poor child ono penny if ho had lived to make a will," ho observed to Beatrix's employer*, as ho bode them good-night after his Interview with tho helitm (their "govern nas" no longer) was at an end. "What a hard-hearUd creature," cried bright little Mi*. Hudson, whon tho lawyer had gone. "Rolling in wealth all these year*, and refusing help! to her; and how bravo alio lias been! I'm so glad, Tom, door, that we met her at Newport last summer. If sho had stayed slaving after Mrs. Mason's horrible children, sho would have been all ready for her grave now." "And having had your two cherubs in charge, Kitty,' she is ready— for what?" asked her husband. "Well, Tom, they are dear good children, and sho is very fond of them. Ready for what? Why to go Into society,1 I hope under my care, and meet Harold Campbell again and marry him. I know ho admired her thereat Newport, but ho had only his art, and she nothing. But it will all come right now with my help you 11 see." "Is sho engaged? Waa she not engaged to him at that time at Newport, this summer?" asked a deep rich voice, from tho other side of tl»e room. A tall, fine-looking man of thirty Laid n side hla newspaper, and leaned forward In his easy-cludr, with his dark eyefixed expectantly upon his sister-in-law's pretty face. "Bleas mo, Arthur, what a start you gave mo I I hsd quite forgotten that you were there. Eugaged to Harold Campbell? Oh, no." 4 Are you sure, Kitty?" "Quite," said tho little lady, exchanging a meaning glance with her husband.. "But I must go and congratulate Beatrix. t In tho library she found the heiress walking up and down. Tho chandelier cast a rosy flood of lighten her graceful- figure. """ Her checks wore flushed; her eyw shone like two stars. "My good little governem no more, but my tender friend always, I hope," said Mrs. Hudson-, taking her hand, and kissing her affectionately. "Always, nlwtyil" was the almost hysterical reply. "You have been so good and kind, that I have nover felt the sting of my position hare. Do yon know I was Just reckoning up my wealth, looking at all tho luxury around me in this house, and planning the decoration of my own. But I api happier mice you came. The largest fortune on earth could not content me unless lore was given tome with fL" V,W trill come now," said Mr*. Hudson, covertly waxchfng her.

may lovo you, Beatrix. I think I know oue who loved you truly when you were Mrs. Mason's guvcrncxs ut Newport, and who lovo* you still." "At Newport!" exclaimed Beatrix, turning red and then july. "The artist, Mr. Campbell. Am 1 right, Boairlx. "Possibly. I don't know." Airs. Hud.son smiled wickedly to herself. The library-door opened. Her brother entered softly, saw her, and stopped short. She glided past liirn with an encouragiug nod and smile. He closed tho door behind her. Ihwlrix stood still at the fireplace, leaning her hand on the velvet border, and listening to tbu soft roaring of the wood fire, that llanitd half way up tho chimney. Sho heanl tho door close. She thought herself alone. After a lime, sho drew a small oval case of red morocco — au old-fashioned inlnlature-case — from Its concealment. Sho opened the caso. . It held uo iniuaturc. Only n spray of gorgeously-tinted uutumn leasts, tied by a silver cord and tassel, nnd fastened to a visiting-card, which l>ore the nauio of 'iArtbur Hutl8011." "Fool that I have been to treasure this so long," slii thought, gaxiug 011 it dimly through tho mist of her gathering tears. "Then I thought that ho lovtd me — I had not been undeceived. At least Harold Campbell stood my friend iii that manner. If lie had not assured mo JJiat Mr. Hudson would marry Ellen Vincent before this year ends, I should liavo gono on loving him to tho last. But it was true." "Ho left me there at Newport, without ono word of explanation. And since I liavo bocu In tho house he has treated rno only as h is sister's governcm, "He did not oven congratuldto mo when Mr, Horn ford brought the i.iw to-night. Well, my wealth will enablo me to go away, to travel, to forget him. Oh, I bopo it will," she moaned, pressing tho maple spray to her lips for the List time. With averted face, she held it out over the blaze. Tho ca*e was taken gently but firmly from her hand. Sho started and looked round-— Into Arthur Hudson's face. Blushing hotly all over her face, she uttered a distressed exclamation, and snatched at tho red morocco case. But he held it aside, and caught her uplifted hands In his. "Walt ono moment !>eforo you leave me. It Ls best," ho said. In tho old voice, so full of tenderness— tho voice that she had never heard before sluce tho Newport days were ended "Just listen an Instant, love. I never knew until flvo minutes ago that Harold Campbell was not to bo youx' husband. lie told uie at Newport that you wore engaged to him, and tliat as soon as he was sufficiently prosperous you would be hi* wife." "Oh, how could he?" exclaimed Beatrix. "Ho did ask mo to marry him, Mr. Hudson. I may say that now." "And you refused?" '•Certainly, at once." "Oh, If I only had known that then, , Beatrix how different our Uvea might J have been!" • "Yea," said Beatrix sadly. Sho thought ho alluded to his own ! engagement, which ho now regretted. "Ho told mo 0. that to o, "sho continued. "Of what?" "About Miss Vincent," stammered J Beatrix. "And I hope yon will bo very ^ liappy with her." i "Did thnt villain tell you such a • falshood? Ellen Vincent! Why, wo are tho best of friends; bOt sho is to bo | married to my cousin, Fred Hudson, at ' Christmas." "And you?" Pardon me, I scarcely 1 know what I am saying," saldjlcatrix, feeling tho room turn round.' 1 "Loan on me, Beatrix. You look 1 pale. 1 see It At last. Tliat fellow j meant lo part 111 forever, and ho nearly , succeeded. Nover wind dear. For- 1 giro and forget tho past; look to tho 1 future. It may bo so happy, If yon j are willing to make it so.

Atlanta* ltonUcof I^ut )'o{. The recent rvjwrts ol Atlantic steamera indicate that the fog season, now setting in Inside of tho Gulf Stream, nud over its western margin, will bo alinost as memorable as tliat of IKS 1. In that year Uio fogs were more* dense and protracted than they had been known to be for a long tlmu, although the icedrift over the Newfoundland Banks was not as cxcotdvc as in noum msumo a. The steamer Tbingvalia, from Cnjvnliagiui, which reached New York re- < ccntlv. rei>orted tluit alio creewed the 1 Newfoundland Banks in talitndo 42 deg. 30 mill., and "had dunso fo^for 1 three days, the vessel being under half • Kj»etd during tliat time." In this in- { stance tlie delay by fog amounted lo : about 3d hours and allowing that this ] steamer's aveiago sptx^l U not more lluui ten milos an hour, the delay was 1 ah great as If sho had imulo a dtUtur of i about 3-jO milts to tlio southward to get • out of the dangerous fog-belt on the Banks. Tho recent rejK>rts ofothorin- j comiug European steamsldps corrobo- , rato tliat of Uio Thlngralia an to the ( nrosent ex terns ion aud density of the \ Newtoundland fogA 'lie Dutch stea* , tour Jasou, whicli made the western 1 vojAgo crossing tho Banks, reported at 1 New York recently, "had much fog j tlie wliolo passage," while tho French » steamer Normandle, same time, for , two day* "had dense fog und Vessel un- l

dor half sjMXjd," with some "calms" on tho Bank#— an experience which cost this fast steamer as much time as would have been required to ruu her nearly 350 miles out of her course In the fog loss route. It is greatly to tho credit of tho steamers rc]H>rting their deteution by fog, that they steamed at only "half si^xxl," instead of hurrying through the 1mjviu'trablo veil of ocean mLt, But the candid observations und remarkably fogless experience of Captain bhackford, lat« of tho Aiuericiui Sleauidiip Line, in the "southern route," show that there Is nothing gained, but much loaL by European steamer* at this period of tlio year crossing tho Atlantic even on the moderately northern route. Captain Sliockford's fonuer steamer, Uio llliuobi. In ten east and- west {ussagus, made during tho spring and Hummer of lbSJ, eucountcred iu all kw thou two houn of fog when east word bound; and loss than ten hours in tlio six monllis ou tlio western jxusages. By CaptaJn'Shackf ord's "extreme souUicrn route," as comjored with tho CajM ltaco route, the loss of distance each passage ho says, is only 103 miJos. It seems, Uicrcforo, that had the Thing - valia, Jason and Nordmandio taken oven tho "extremo southern routo" (which crosses 50 degrees west lougituilo. nothing to tho nortli of 40 degrw-s 30 minutes north latitude, and 47 dogretw WT«t. notldnff north of 41 degrees latitude} tiicy would hare made, In all probability, quicker runs from port to ixjrt: For while two at IoaM or these vessels were compelled, by fog, to lone ttmo enough for steaming about 350 miles In clear weather, they could have made tho requLiito d<tour of tho "extremo southern route" (only 103 miles) and thus practically liavo saved much time. In thrno cases, obviously, the (atii of maximum safety proved to bo alio tlio path in which Uio maximum iqxxxl was attainable. A fresh illustration of the ud van ta ft of the southern route is furnished by Uio experience of Uie American lino steamer British Princess, which reached Philadelphia recently. Though she did not take tho extremo southern route, but crossed Uio 50th meridian in about 41 degaxw 30 minutes Latitude, tho fog cncounteaxl only necessitaled a delay of a little less than four hours. Lkadl»rd fond Tmnti An action for dainamts for Injuries suffered In earning a dcfoctlro passage way In a building was brought against tho UndloTd. This passage- way was on tho second story of tho building, w idcii was rented to different persons for ofllceei and bedrooms, and tho plaintiff was legally In tho building. In this caao—Marahall va lleanl— Uio plaintiff was defeated, and he nj»pcaled to tho Supremo Court of Tcxas, where Uio Judgment was affirmed. Judge Watts, in the opinion, said: "It ajv pear* tliat Uio plaintiff was in the pas-Aigo-tvay, not on tho invitation of tho defendant, but' of ono of tho tenants on the second floor. At common law the oecupant and not Uio owner Is bound to the public to keep the preinisei in such repair* that thoy may to safely visited by tho public, and the occupant I* liable, prima facie, to thiol persons for lnjurieo. And when there Is a liability on tho port of the landlord It exonly In favor of pcraoos who stand strlcUy upon their rights as strangers. Tlx*© who claim upon the ground Uiat they were tntlted Into a dangerous place must «*k their remedy against the person who invited them. If they were the guests of the tenant, he, and not the landlord, Is the person from whom the must seek redress for Injuries from the defect* In the premises."
