Can. sate Alton busied himself at his headwariera until aTerything he could think C had been eoo-pleted, & had a small guard of three or four detailed to watch the mansion hoasa of the old aaa captain, and danbled the guard at the gems.

Griffith Alton left the house of the wcuniled sea oaptain and smarted down thr) slight descent toward the foot bridge wbieb led across the ravine to tbe village. S4e tall ornamental trees were growing along the sides of the path, and these in addit .on to the very dense fog and starless iiigbt made It so dark that Captain Alton wtjs forced to grope his vrny before oe bad gone a dozen paces from thspiasss. He had his sword in his-hand with wider ho was feeli'nur his wav. thrustinir 1 it ont agiunst the trees on his right And at umi same time feeling with his iert bead He mi about half way down the hill when his hand brushed the hair of some one. Supposing it to be a sentry, he said: "Holloa, sis; who are you, and what are yoa doing here?" Thiite waa no answer, but the next moment ti e muzzle of a pistol was thrust into his face, and he heard a click and saw flish. "Fi wll What do you mean?" Tb )owder had. evidently become dami, imd the' wapon failed to go off. InstlKtively comprehending that he was in dimgar, the Captam spiang aside and threvr his sword np to ward off a blow. "Tiike this, then!" hissed a voice And the next moment there was a clash of steel agiinst steel, as a heavy blade came in omtiict with his own, causing the apart s to fly in showers. "Who are you? If it's this yon want you can have your share of it," oriad Captain Alton, swing ng his nword about his head and slashing light and left. Clash clailt clash steel meet steal, and successive sboweis. of sparks rolled from theft nltdes. 'Oagptsin Alton coald have killed his autigoiiist, but supposing him to be some everiealous young officer, he was only dusiiomi of punwhing jim. The man soon found himself hard pressed, and hurling the pisto' into tbo face of the young eommandiir with force enough to ir.un him, wheeled abont and ran off into the darlness. "Confound the rascal," said the (3pIcon, sttiggering i'or a moment under the force of use blow "I wish I hod him." He w stunnei I but for s moment, as d 1 lien qaUon! iat.'Uie " dired aaa .the -f eUew liad Uksn. He vas guided by the sonr d of foottteps so ambling along over the !'73gh, uneven ground. The stony earth -bs covered with small cedars and ornamental trees, wl ich huuhnod the fugitive's flight,' Griftrh snatobeda pist1 from his belt, intending to fire a shot after the retreating mail, Tint a HScond reflection decided him no-; to do so. A shot so near the house might injure the sleeping patient and net dlessly alarm Ola, besides, he had 1:0 doubt that the man who wt.s flying before hiia was none othor than one ox his own ov;rzealomi sentries. "I will overtake the scoundrel at any l-ste anit punish him for this impradenoe, i heyoBng officer thought. He in as rapidly as he eould, bat the fugitive was equally, as fleet as himself. Be did not gain on him, in fact he was rather losing ground, when his foot slipped on a wet stone and ho fell he inly upoik the ground. The oommander of the fort was not injured kv the fail and was on his feet in a mom en L The sharp report of a mufket down close to the embankment rang out on the air. Griffith hnnied up to where the nhot had bei in fired and found sevaml of the Tillagers alreaily hastening there. "Whit. is tht matter?" asked the Captain. "A feller come rannin' ., long .hera knocked me down an' run over me like biases, jumped the works and skipped. I shot at him, but I swar I don't believe,! teched hair or hiJe.o' him," said the sea"'Which way did he go?" asked the officur, with no little anxiety. "Kight off into the woods. He's a Britiaiter, ysr fcot. , "Oui' pickets may catei him," said the Captain, climbing npon the breustworks. He diet not consider that his piokets were all ineipaxieneed men and were liable to let tie py through. Their stupidity alone ooald have allowed him to gain admission. Some one had a lantern with toes, and by the dim light it gave the Captain saw a dark form leap from the top of the parapet into the darkness. Captain, A! ton fired his piBtol at ihe fagtie, but owing to the intense darkneeti lie misted. The footsteps of the retrtia tine a tan could be heard flying through tike roods. Ha was 1m if-inclined to fire a second shot at him. but realizing the ueelessnsss of th act he put up hia pistol, "Come on, come on. half a dozen of you," he orind, exoitedly. "We will not allow them to escape. Let ns follow and OTerhinl them: there are bat tw o." Six or seven citizens, armed with muskets and bayonet, sprang over the parapet With .him and started through the swodtt. Th grtvutdwas uneven, the trees thick, the hillsif'a rocky, and the night so dark that v; waa impossible for them to more thac 1 grope cheir way. "Hi .It! 11 voice suddenly called. A click, a flash, a report, and the whistling of a bullet close to his head, warned GrifS :h that they were advancing upon the mirvopa, excited pickets. They came to a halt, and Griffith cried : "Stop firing; we are friends," "Why didn't ys say ss?" said the picket. "Ton gave us no chance." 'What's the matter? what was that shoot in' bock tlre i.bout?" asked the guard as they advance 1. Griffith explained that there had been some of the enemy in their lines andtey fired st them as they i sn out, and asked: "Tid any one pass you?" "N." the picket aiaswsrsd, "no tin's pessod us; no un conLi go pnst us." "Tbey did; they come through your lines into our works," said Oi.ptain Alton. "Grift, where are you?" culled a voice in his real-, and the next it dment Jack Hatchet eme np, panting and wiping the perspiration from his face. ''Jiok. what are you doin" here?' 'the Lapi ain akca. "C h, I beared the ehootin', an come oat to see what was tbe mattor; an' I kep' on eomin' till I found ye." "l ut ton had no orders to follow me?" Ho, nor I didnt want any, Grift Ef ye aer in danger, that was ill I wanted to know, 1 in' I jest put in to help ye cut." Well, Jack, I shall not reprove yon. for your motive is evidently a good one; but it doss not express very good discipline on our part to have soldiers acting wittont ardors." "Ofa, ding It, Griff! I ain't agoin' to try to nadorstand anything 'bout discipline. Fact is, I don't keor a s.raw. When thar 4ded a sledge-hammer blow, i,est eowns on old J noli, that's all," "Come on we will seoul- the woods, dare aa i'i is, snd try and discover soma of these spies,"

"All right, Griffi I'll go with ye Wherever ye say, but it seems to me like lookin' fur a needle in a haystack to-right." Griffith Alton oantioned all to be quiet, deployed thotu in the woods and made a forwurd movement. There was little hope in this intense dtrkness of finding the spies in the woods. It wonld be but 4 bare possibility if they oame on them at allIf toe British intended mak?j:g a night attnek, which he believed they did not, tbov would in all probability meet their

! advancing Hoes. The Americans pos- ; fesfod nn advantage over the ouomy in i being thoroughly acquainted with every loot of tbo ground, iney woreroemen not to bo despiod. Amerioan rlflemon have always proved a match for regulars, and in the singular warfare iu tho woods, where so much depends on aconraoy of aim and so little j military tactics, they are their superior. i ns oitiren soiaiers 01 oianoa naa naa their mettle tested, and were not larking in confidence in themselves. For several hundred yards they had cautiously advanced in tho woods, when suddenly there came tl.ree distinct raps, sounding very much like some one striking a cartridge box. The Amerionns came to a halt. "Can it le possible we have come on tho British pickets ?" Captain Alton asked him-ulf. Not a word was spoken and a doadsilence reigned over the woods. It was common for pickets to rap on their cartridge boxes instead of hailing an advanceing foe. A moment's sileuoo and tben came three loud raps, and a voioa cried: "Who goes there?" Beyond a doubt they had stumbled on the British pickets, though the land forces were on the west of tbe fort and they were on the north side. This picket had been thrown oat by the marines from the man-of-war. "Here is a mystery," the young commander thought. "This must be seen into at once. I wish I knew how many they wore. We will investigate it any way." He was qniok to think nnd equally as qu-ok to act. The words had scarcely escaped tho oflicer hailing them, when Gritliih answered: "It is friends." "Have yon succeeded?" was next asked. "What ou earth does he mean?" the Captain asked himself, but, determined now to play 11 bold part, he answered: "No, not yet." "They're got a strong guard all round their works, huve they?" Griffith, holding u cocked pistol in one hand and a sword in the other, was slowly advancing towardthe Englishman, His mind was acting with lightninglike rapidity, and he concluded beyond a doubt that this was only a party, either of th,e land forces or marines from the Xeuophon, eent out to accomplish some object, which, beyond a doubt, was to spifco the gens. Little did he dream what that party had been sent for. 1 o h ive spiked every cannon in the fort would hare been cf small amount compared to their fiendish design. "What did ye come one for till ye done it?" the Briton asked. "I hod to," he answered, blindly. "Was it you who fired those shots?" "They were at us." "You have ronced the guards by your blundering, and the job has not been done yet." Xne man wno was auaxessimg uruniiu was evidently an offioer. The young c iptain now resolved on a bold plan a plan which was both 'oold and desperate. It might result in his losing hte life, but it promiieir success in ferreting ont this mystery. " A -e they there?" asked the voice. "Who?" ho asked. "The deserters Burnett and Dawes," the Britifch office; of marines asked. "Yes; W9 tbink there can ba nb doubt of it," the American officer snswered. Then Capn ilonteith was rcght. Well, won't they swing tit the yard-arm when we get 'em? It' was Burnett who did.hte380utiorr io odr Bbtn:jinen iummi u iiui a trumtr vr apjr, thought Captain Alton. "We were wrong." The American was trying to discover how many men the ofiicer of marines had with mm, out was wnoiiy unaoie to ao that. He heard him occasionally speak to some one, but it was in an undertone, and he could gain no information from what he Euid. He at last came up to tbe officer. Two or three dark forms were standing abont him, but the officer was one pace to the front. 'What' are yon going io do now?" the marine asked. "Come this way a moment." The officer took one step forward and then his suspicions being aroused, he started back, saying: "There's something wrong here." "Surrender!" and Gri5Ul seized him by the arm and laid the muzzle of his pistol against the Briton's temple. "Ho, here!" uhouted the officer. . "Hold! Another word and yon area dead man!" Bnt the mischief was already done. There was a rush of footsteps before and behind. A marine thrust the mnzzlo of a gun at tbe side of Griffith, bnt he quickly whirled the officer around so that the contents of the musket entered his heart, and he fell dead to the earth. "Hold on! Hold on, thar, by tarnation," roared Jack Hatchet, coming for-wtCfa-with texiaitlfttStrides. The flash of the gun had partially lighted tbe scene. Jack and one or two others leveled their pieces and fired, but owing to the darkness their shots failed to be effective. The flash of their guns, however, sufficiently broke the gloom which enveloped them to allow them -to see four o" five British marines. The Americans charged with yelis, clubbing their guns. The marines fired their muskets and for a few moments stood with fixed bayonets. But in the contest in the dark, the impetuous Americans had the advantage. One or two of the British were knocked down, and Griffith wounded another with his sword. All, however, pot away. The sound of tbeir retrenling footsteps alone broke the silence which had fallen npon the scene after the brief coullict. "They're gone," said some ono. "Yes, consarn their pictures, it's jest alleni the way," roared Jaok Hatchet. "They allera skip out jest when a feller gits ais hand in. Oh, I wish they'd jest stay. Great Jehosiphai! why didn't it jest lost a minnit longer so that I could a eased up a little!" "Bush, Jack," said the young commander, "this is no time to boast of what we wiuld do, We mast follow them." "That jest suits mo exactly," said Jack, "Which way are they gone?" "Down toward the coast aronnd the bay. The vessel is just off the island." "Well, I'm rejny to follow them aboard the darned British man o' war." The nnd&unted little band of Americans set off through the wood, to meet danger and adventures of which they never dreamed. CHAPTER XII. OU CAPTURED. Ola Gatrell remained in the room with the wounded sea oaptain, gazing for a long time on his heaving chest and difficult breathing. It was quite apparent that Captain Gatrell was growing very weak. Bemoving him to his own room and bed had so exhausted him that he was scarcely able to speak. Ola, with ell tho tender sympathy of a loving daughter, hung about toe bed of the dying man and tears trickled down her cheeks. "Don't try honey," said the warm-hearted Mrs. Hatchet. "We've all got to die some time; yer father's jest agoin' a few days afore the others, that's all." '''But, Mrs. Hatchet, it is sad to think that he,, who had but a few days left at best, should be snatched away in this mannea1 should die Biich a violent death " Poor Ola broke down and sobbed. The wounded man woke in time to hour her last words. He sat up in bed and in a feeble voice called: "Ola, Ola, my dear child, come here!" She dried her tears and stood by bis bedside. "You have been weeping," the wounded sailor said, trying to smile, but a twinge of pain in his side drove the smile away, "I will not weep if it annoys you, father," she said, sitting down by his bedside. He gently drew her face, toward him, and, kissing her as he was wont to do when she was sn infant, said: "My ohiia my dear chil i! for, though there is no blood relation between us, I will still call yon my dear child." He was so weak ho was forced to stop and rest, though bis feeble ana was stili about her neok.

to net try to talk, father," she said, yoa are too wonk, and your strength has been taxed too much already," "1 will not talk more than is good foi toe, my dear child," he said, pausing foi 1 breath. "You are my ohiia my own child are you not, Ola?" ho asked, his eyes growing unnaturally bright. "Of course I am, father; no one would pretend to say I was not," she answered. His mind seemed to wander, and for a moment tho sea captain muttered somo unintelligible sentences. "I knew von would not deny being my child," he finally said. "That ship -that wreck that storm, Ola anil also after I had been told I hut my own wife and child had perished. It wa my own child I rescued from tho wreck. It was ray own wife I found dead and disfigured ou the wreck. Poor Ola my own little darling I must soon go and leave yon " ""Oh, father, don't talk so! won't you try and sleep again?" "Bleep, child? 1 will soon sleep. It will be the last long sleep that sleep that knows no wokin". I am nenrinu port, my sails are shortened, Ola, and Boon I'll cast anchor in the haven of rest. Bus you won't be alone. " "You are talking too much, fufber. You must talk no more. Do please be quiet." "Never fear, child: I l;now when to lay to, the sailor ancworocl. "Don't be uneasy about me, for this old storm-tossed. hulk is goiog into the dry-dock, but youj will not be alone. Hs loves you, dear,' and he will never forsake you. He is na-, ture's true nobleman. Never did ship, sail under fairer colors." "No, father, I hare no fears of being left alone or neglected. Now go to sleep." He laid his hand lovingly upon her faoo, patted her cheek, and sunk into slumber. ! Mrs. Hntohet, who had stood in tbe , background while the father and daugh-? ter were oonvereixg, now motioned Ola tor come away. y She removed the hand which stilt rested upon her head and rose withoat waking him. "I will go to my room, Mrs, Hatohet, she said. As she was crossing the ha'l she heard the report of a gnu or pisiol toward tho earthworks on the southeast. Her heart bounding with fear, she hastened oui to the piazza in front of the bouse. All was intense darkness, but she coaM hear a rash of footsteps down toward tho line of earthworks. A few moment j later she caught the faint gleam of a lantern and another shot was heard. "What is it-another fight?" asked Mrs. Hatchet, hastening oat upon the piazza. "I do not know. Did it wake father?" she asked. "No." "Please look in and see if he still sleeps," TO Ml CONTtNnED.

" O, nothing; only I'd just like to know how you felt during the sweet osculation." , " Felt like a beefsteak." " Like a beefsteak?" " Yes. Smothered in onions." Ttxaa 8iftir,Q The Bottom All Right. "Yes, it is pretty dull in our town just now in real estate matters," said the Kansas man, "but I am not discouraged." "The boom lias passed, I hear?" "Well, yen." "And the bottom dropped out ?" "No, sir; I deny that. While there are no sales to record, and while prices have fallen 60 per cent, the lxittom ia all right sir tdl right." "What do you call the bottom?" "A sandstone ledge twenty-sevfn feet- thick, sir. Wo may suffer a relapse tiow and then, but the bottom has cone to stay."

How Many Calls, A story is told in the life of Dootor Sobettaon, of Irvine, concerning a maiden lady named Miss Eirkwood, who was exceedingly smart at repartee. On he occasion, when a probationer of many years' standing was visiting at the house, he was pacing up and down tho floor, while Miss Kirkwood sat busy with her knitting needles. Stopping in his walk, and laying hit- hand on her shoulders, he said "You and I are just alike, Miss Kirkwood : you never got a husband, and I never got a kirk." "How many calls had you, sir?'' she quickly inquired. "Oil," he answered, "I never received a cai: at alL" "Then," she said( "don't you be eveniu' yourself to mo." What Ia CalarrahT Cat irrnh Is an Inflammation of the mucous membranes, and may aftoct the head, tin-on:, stomach, bowels or bladdor. But ialur; h f tho head Is tho most common, often coming on so gradually that It has a Ural 1 old before the nature of tho trouble is suspected. Catarrh in caused byaookl.or mtecesefon of colds, combined with Impure Mood. Its local nymptoins are a sense ut I'ullni ss and heat In the forhead, dryness fn the nise and back part of the throat, nnd a disagreeable discharge from the nose. W lion tho ilUcuse pains 11 firm hold on tho system, it be rnies chronic , and is then exceedingly dHiifi'rous and treacherous, liable to develop Into consumption, Fortunate is tt that we have Hood's Sarsapai'Ulu the remedy for this ever increasing malady. It attacks at once tho source of tin; disease by purifying and enriching the blood, which In passing through the delicate passages of the mucous membrane soothes ana rebuilds the tissues, giving the ni tendency to health instead of disease, anil ultimately curing the affentiou. At the Bumo time Hood's Barsaparilla builds up the whole system and makes one tool that he liiis taken a new ease of life, Some told Facts. When one sits down and calmly figures up the bushels of potatoes which could hare been bought for the pooi with tho millions of dollars carried over to Paris and left there by American visitors, he must roll his eyes with astonishment. And when he reads the eutiinntes that not more than one out cf ton of those visitors had ever seen Niagaia Falls, tbe Rooky mountains, the YoMimite, or any of tbe other natural attractions of the United States he feels like exclaiming: "By gosh !" .

Iu Memory of the Departed. Mrs. Stubbs I wish that you and Mr. Flat would come over this evening, quira informally, you know. We are going to have a tittle card party. Mrs. Flat Let me see; isn't it jnsfc abcut a year since the death of Mr Sttibbe? Mrs, Stubbs Just a year to-night. We are going to commemorate with n social game of whist. Y'tu know poor, dea.r Henry was so fond of cards, Tntth. It is hardly possible to overstate the

blessings of a happy childhood. It is worth while to make any proper sacri- j ficu in order to store the memory of -children with happy days. The family j pKiiio, the steamboat excursion, tbe olti.'dren's party, the occasional gift, are de igUts that do not cease when the little tired head sinks on the pillow at niftht; they live again in the character of the joy-inspecting au, they shine in the plcusaut countenance of the snorry old grandfather.

There's a bow of hope in the sky at hut, and it tells you that the sto.-m of disease which has spread its shadow ove- yon will give way to the sunshine of renewed health, if you are wise and try Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It can and will effectually euro till female weaknesses and derauaements, and no woman who has not tried it n.-ed despair, for a trial will convince hur that it is the very thing she needs to rostoreherto the health she fears forever lost. - To cleanse tho stomach, liver, and system generally, use Dr. Pierce's Pelieta. 25 cants. It is a beneficient law of nature that the things which minister to a man's sound life and true comfort are necessities the meeting of which conduces to his happiness. Bis mind contrives other things which are devised at once to enhance his pleasure and elevate bis nature. These superfluities of civilization should comply with both conditions, pleasure and improvement. Failing in the latter, they are either iiuoouous inactivity or positive evils.
