距 face. "Yet our son dared not act otherwise, and for this reason not to have your resistance and perhaps cursing for it, we have not visited you until all was accomplished. Indeed, for the same reason, Arthur waits without until you learn that which he has in justice done." "Why, Ida, what can you mean? Arthur without, and not come to his father. Yet have I not deserved the boy's love. Well, well, its no use to whine; I am no saint for him to venerate, yet he might have come to me in my trouble." "Oh, Herbert, Arthur's heart bleeds for you. It is the fear of your curse that keeps him away." "What has he done, Ida, that I should curse him." "Made restitution to the De Lacys." "Damnation!" burst from Sir Herbert Blakely, who paced his cell for a few moments in great rage, which, however, gradually subsided, and then he returned to his anxious wife, and taking her gently by the hand, observed- "Yes, Ida, I should have cursed him a few months ago, but not now, though your revelation a moment ago went through me like a sword. Under the circumstances, it is all for the best. that he should redeem his father's name. Ida, call in that he may receive a bad man's blessing, but not his curse." It is fit our son father's In a few minutes more, Arthur Blakely was folded to his father's heart. We must pass over the hours that the noble young clergyman and his mother spent that day with the guilty father. Suffice to say that this discovery of his wife and son, with all the peculiar circumstances of the case wrought in Sir Herbert Blakely a great change. Even he was not all dross. CHAPTER LXXXII. THE LAST MLEIING OF SNAP AND HIS MASTER. Snap entered the cell of Sir Herbert Blakely ten minutes after the departure of his wife and son. "Herbert!" Snap." Thus they met again and grasped each other's hands with a certain love from their associations of forty years, commencing in their early boyhood. "Are you satisfied, Herbert?" inquired his mentor. "I am, Snap. Your fidelity to my wife and son has reconciled me to the rest. Snap, I love that noble boy, and you well know how passionately I loved Ida. The old affection has returned, but purer now than in my youth." I have not betrayed my trust, Herbert, have I? Do you not think your father would justify what I have done?" "You have not betrayed your trust, Snap; and I think my father would justify you." 'Tis well. But one act more remains. I still stand in your father's shoes. Your trial comes off to-morrow." "It does. You have some deep purpose, Snap: that I can see.” "You will be hanged or transported for life, Herbert. Which shall it be? Damnation! neither hanged nor transported." "Right, Herbert. Thus have I resolved." "Snap, you have some deep purpose. Tell me at once.' "Sit down, Herbert, and listen. I must speak low. The judge will condemn you to be hanged or transported for life; nothing can save you. Even if a pardon was obtained, which is almost impossible, you would have to fly from society and your native land as a pardoned felon: all would shun you." "I know it, Snap; I know it!" groaned the guilty man. "I said, to obtain a pardon is almost impossible, for the Crown considers that you betrayed it in sentencing Farinelli to death, and it is revengeful because it erred." "I wish the fellow had lived, Snap, yet he died like a man.” Herbert, you have one virtue that you always possessed. It is courage. "You do me justice there, old friend, for such I acknowledge you." You see "Look, Herbert, at this curious ring on my left hand. it has the serpent's head. There is a spring which, if touched by a firm pressure, starts the serpent's tongue. That tongue will sting. I always, as you have often noticed, wear that jewel on my left hand. Should I need its service, it would give me my own quietus, which it certainly would, were I in such a state as you are now. Or did I need its service for an enemy, it would do its work, if for a friend, then it would serve in the death grip of friendship. Will you take my hand, Herbert." Snap, I will!" "I thought so Herbert. You have the virtue of daring to die like a man." "At least, old friend, I will do that. You have come to grant what I would myself have asked. The means to die." "Herbert, that serpent's sting will infuse into your blood a subtle poison. It will give no pain. You will sleep, and in the morning be found dead in your bed. You will die, so the doctor's will say, of apoplexy. Have you aught to desire of me as your last charge, I will fulfill it." "Nothing have I to charge you with to fulfill for me, old friend, excepting to stand as true to my son as you have been to nie and my father, and to soften as much as possible the stroke of my death to poor Ida. Snap, give me your hand and let us part. You shall not despise me. Our lives have not been good, but the interview with my poor forsaken wife and that noble boy who mourns for his father's errors has made a repentant man of me. I have done enough wrong in my life, and am now like a rat driven to the wall. To reform is impossible. I should have listened to you; and then this discovery of Ida and Arthur might have purified me. Yet it might not, for when we are on the road to the gallows, we seldom stop until the hangman's hands are at our throat. Snap, give me this 1st grasp of friendship. Give it me, I say. Why hesitate? At least I have, as you have allowed, the courage of a man. Come, hesitate not, "I do not hesitate, Herbert; yet I do not hurry to sting. Were there any other escape, this should not be done to-night. Herbert, there is my hand. I never loved you so much as now I give to you the grip of death. is done." "Snap-Snap, my old counselor and friend, I thank you with all my heart." "Herbert, I will now leave you. In half an hour, you will fall into a peaceful sleep; you know the rest. The poison is already in your blood, coursing through your veins. It is best I leave you at once. You may wish to collect your thoughts perhaps for prayer during the short time of consciousness allotted to you. I know in belief you are a Christian,-I am a sceptic and yet would not deprive you of the hopes which cling to us at such a time. Herbert, if there be a hereafter, we shall meet again." "But where, Snap, shall we meet?" "In a world at least as good as this. My own intellect can give you at least this assurance. If there be a God, then that God is not worse than myself. I have no hells to send you to, but in mercy and consideration, I have given you the doom of relief from a bad state and the unpleasant circumstances of the gallows or the convict's life. I say surely God is not worse than I. Herbert, good-by for this life: if there be another, we shall meet again. Snap-old companion, good-by." And thus these men parted. In the morning, Sir Herbert Blakely was found dead in his bed. It was thought that the interview with his wife and son, his remorse and the terrors of the coming trial on the morrow had overwhelmed him, and that he had died in a fit of apoplexy. Snap fulfilled the dying wishes of his master in regard to Sir Herbert's son and wife. Arthur took his father's title and estates, and redeemed his name by a life of honor and benevolence and his dear mother was in all his works of usefulness as a servant of Christ—a ministering angel. Here before dismissing Sir Herbert Blakely's special connections, we must note an item concerning his friend Orsini. The Count was upon the point of flying from England to his own land to escape justice when the Marquis Baglioni met him and offered him the alternative of fighting a duel with him or being denounced at once to the officers of the law. The gallant Marquis preferred to chastise the villain himself rather than to hand a countryman over to the law. He felt to call him to an account for his actions against Farinelli and Sir Walter Templar. The challenge was accepted, and Orsini fell mortally wounded. "Infinite Evil!" mused the philosopher upon these events. "Bah! there is none such in the universe. There is a germ of goodness in all things. Even Herbert possessed redeeming qualities. Now, if we were all brought under circumstances in this world to develop those qualities which would redeem us, but which are very often not brought into our lives, then should we be redeemed from our errors here. Well, then, why not hereafter? I say humanity is not dross, but gold. Purify it then and when 'tis purified by fire enough it will be all gold. Hell! Yes, send us all to hell; for light and truth and goodness are eternal blazings. So if the Satan is in his lake of fire, he shall be God, for he is light and truth and that is goodness and justice. The universe will purge itself in time and even Herbert Blakely come from his furnace, gold." 384 THE UTAH MAGAZINE. Ост. 16, There were gathered at this time at Courtney House on the tenth anniversary of the great marriage, first Sir Walter Templar and Lady Terese, his beautiful Hebrew wife now more beautiful than ever. Ten years of a blissful life unclouded by a single sorrow, supremely blissful in Walter's undying love, supremely blissful in heaven's greatest blessing to well mated wives-a little flock of lambs to gambol around their mother's knee and leap with laughing shouts into their father's arms-ten years of such a life had made Terese, the Jewess, divinely beautiful. The First, there was young Walter Templar, the eldest child now nine years old. The boy was very like his father and the pride of his fond mother's heart. Next came the gentle Alice Templar named after Alice Courtney, Walter's spirit-bride. The third was a boy, and they named him Judah, out of gratitude to his great uncle, but much to the disgust of that despiser of antique reverences. Indeed, Judah Nathans insisted that his namesake should be called Frederick, that being his second name. fourth was also a son, and they named him Richard Courtney; and to him his uncle Sir Richard designed to leave the Courtney inheritance, and it was thought the government would confer the title also, and thus keep up the honored name. This Sir Richard Courtney considered just for it would be a return to Terese, in the person of her son for her redeeming the De Lacy estates. There were two more children, the infant Terese, and Eleanor two years of age. Thus it will be seen that our heroine was the mother of a blooming family, and Sir Walter Templar a proud and happy father. Lord Frederick De Lacy and Eleanor, his noble wife, who resigned in her great generosity her cousin Walter, but found the consummation of love in her union with Frederick; they were also gathered to Courtney House on the anniversary of their marriage day. They brought with them their four bright children, three sons and a daughter. There was one more family who had come all the way from Italy for the visit, Farinelli and Clara Garcia, his wife, were there; and they had brought with them their son the offspring of days when the father laid under the sentence of death. He was nearly ten years of age and had already appeared in public as a singer and bid fair to rival even his father. Farinelli was on his visit under an assumed name, for to that day, he was very sensitive upon the point of a public sensation over the past. He preferred to let the nation, which had so grossly erred in its assumption of infallability, believe it had condemned an innocent man to an ignominious death. Snap also preferred to let the country believe Farinelli dead, that it might bear the weight of his supposed tragic end to escape the gallows. Sir Richard Brine, however, knew all; but as he had done much in friendship in Farinelli's case and believing him innocent, would even have righteously betrayed his country by letting Snap carry out his design to save the prisoner, had not Sir Walter Templar been found in time, Sir Richard Brine, kept to himself the entire secret. He also had come to Courtney House, and was on his visit, particularly to see Farinelli. Sir Richard Courtney and his sister Lady Templar were on this auspicious day almost as joyful as when Walter was found, and their great family engagements fulfilled ten years before. They had now their grandchildren around them to increase their joy which was not always the case, for Sir Richard and his sister, Walter's mother, lived together at Courtney House as of old, though they occasionally visited their children and received visits from them in return. Sir Walter and Lady Terese his wife resided with their interesting family at their castle in Cornwall, while Lord Frederick De Lacy aud Lady Eleanor his wife with their interesting children, inhabited the castle which Walter and his wife had redeemed from the hands of their supplanter. Hence the re-gathering from various parts of the country on this anniversary of the wedding day was a great event in the history of the family. Sir Richard was now about sixty years of age and Lady Templar was two years younger than her brother. They were still noble-looking and hale, but they were very proud when they heard the flock of lambs born unto their children shout after them the dear names of grandpapa and grandmamma. that name. There was another at Courtney House that day who gloried in It was Isaac Ben Ammon. lle was now eighty years of age, but the peace of the last ten years had preserved his naturally iron constitution not worn it out. He was simply now more the child than when last we parted from him. He lived always with his grandchild Terese, at Sir Walter Templar's castle in Cornwall, near which Judah Nathans had built a fine residence. At the castle, old Isaac was always surrounded with his great grandchildren. The venerable Hebrew had continued to dream about his race, and the restoration; and he had found in the children what he had not in his nephew Judah, namely enthusiasm and credulity. They knew all the history of Joseph and his brethren, Joseph and Benjamin in particular, and a similar amount about Samuel and David. As for young Walter, he was duly elected by his dreaming grandfather to rebuild Jerusalem and the Temple again, for the old man had so confounded that fine intellectual eldest son of Sir Walter with a Messiahlike mission that it puzzled the dear old soul where to separate them. Snap was very intellectually disgusted with the fancies of his uncle being instilled into young Walter's mind, for he would have much preferred his mind gradually illuminated with the light of truth, to being filled with the superstitions and antiquated dreams of his race concerning the return to Jerusalem, and the coming of another Messiah which will never be fulfilled. Snap was not a Christian but he was not altogether a Jew. There was venerable Isaac Ben Ammon on this eventful aniversary in the garden of Courtney House surrounded by his greatgrandchildren and also now Frederick and Eleanor's children. Young Walter and his great-grandsire were engaged in building the walls of Jerusalem around a beautiful flower plot, much to the delight of all the rest of the children, who were gathering for the builders, stones from all parts of the garden. It was at this work that Snap found them when the wall was nearly completed. "Judah, thou art wise as Solomon, our sire. I wish thou wouldst teach Walter how to build the Temple." "Uncle Isaac," returned the philosopher, "wait till Walter is a few years older, and I will instruct him how to build the Temple of Science and give to him the endowment of truth and not superstition." Snap turned away leaving the children, including the grandfather, at their work. It was thought by the happy parents that there would be quite an extensive mating between the families of the Templars and the De Lacys, for during the past week spent at Courtney House, sparking," as they say in America, which simply means that the young Walter Templar and Terese De Lacy have done considerable boys and the girls are always mating from the time they leave their mothers' arms. With these shadows of coming events, we must bid farewell to TERESE, THE HEBREW MAIDEN, and Judah Nathans, whom we have found, the NOT ALL DROSS. THE END. MOTHER. Of all the words in language, there's no other It is the first name that we learn to love It is the first star shining from above; It is a light that has a softer ray Than aught we find In life's most dazzling day. # FOUL PLAY and HAROLD Complete in Volumes 1 and 2 Utah Magazine, ONE DOLLAR each Vol. THE GRAFENBERG MEDICINES ARE INVALUABLE.
