"Trt thin llic point? Are you sure that I)j:mtii'iii mranger will px-s here?" Vc-*. Kiicli dftv for a wcok pa.st she gallopped up thi* bridle pjuli, oil ihc panic tliorougli-brcd horse, ridingwith a fearlc-s ila.-ii. She is beautiful in face, exqm i-c in form. By fair means or foul I will posers her, for my very soul i.s in chains since I first set eyed upon her. I have striven in vain tb learn who she is. Mounted as well as the best cavalier in I he park, I sought to trace her home. Three t!ruo.i olxervina: tha: 1 followed, she lias eluded me—he.- horse lar outstripping mine, and yc^, each day, I see her here mid look on sonic beauty I had not seen before." ...

The two who '.litis conversed stood hoidin their hoivc* by the side of ono of Ihc rom.wic bi'id!e-p:ilh*i in the Central I'aik. Tlicv were iirst-'cla-s gamblers, Leslie D:iriint and Frank Belphor by. name,.partners in one of tho great palaces of the city. "You mean to force yourself on heracf|'iain'auce, if I understand von, 1* ruiiiC naid he elder of the two. "L do, and niy plan is .such that it canlio'. fail. Yo o'ncrve the vagabond boy smoking a c:gar beiieath the tree nearly opposite. He smokes to keep fire ready lor u.-e. Witch his motion and mine, as vo"i see the bcutitul stranger approach, and you will read my plan and see it executed at the same time. Look! there she comes!"

A sharp whistle from Fran* Belphor caused the vagabond boy to look alive, and as the lady with tresses of dark brown hair, floating loosclv from beneath her jet black riding hat, galloped up the narrow roadway on a magnificent horse, the

3'O

ing wretch th"cw lighted fireworks in the path. -3 'Piie horse, terrified, bound to one side

So quickly that it seemed scarcely possible the beautiful rider could keep her Rent—then as the young villain cast anchor 1 inch direotlv beneath the animal, the horse, wild with aiiright, sprang forward, and dashed madly toward a point where a deep chasm yawned before it. "JTeae w!" cried Belphor, rcalivmg the Young lady's peril, "she is going to her death 1"

She was almost on the edge of the chasm, when a man in the military gmb of an oflicer, rose from the verge of the rock where lie had been reclining, seized the horse by the bit with a giant's strength and held it rearing on the veryverge of the cliff, till tl'e lady slipped from the saddle and stood by his side. "I owe you a life, sir," she said, in a low, tremulous tone. "I owe voji a life, and I shall never forget it." "Fair lady, the service I have had the happiness to render is a thousand times repaid by the thought that Provideuced place mo vlvere I coulcFprevent the sacrifice of such marvelous beauty. Par* don me--I, a soldier, reared afar from courtly scenes, may be rude hasty in ppecch, but I would not be .discourteous." "I know it, sir, and as I see strangers approaching, will ask yon to adjust my broken bridle rein, acd assist me to my saddle without their*interference. This card, with my name and residence, will tell you where to receive from me a more fitting acknowledgement that I appreciate your courage and manly kindness.

She handed him the card just as Frank Belphor rode hastily up,and the latter saw the officer receive it.

Ilis face was white—anger tlie cause of the pallor, for another had rendered the service he had courted—another evidentlr received the encouragement he sighed for—the probable chance of a visiting acquaintance. "I feared a terrible accident anil rode hither to endeavor to avert it," he cxolaimed. "This gallant officer has nobly preserved me, and now rendors the assistance of strangers unnecessary," said the lady, with cold dignity. "Your bridle is ready, and I think •vour horse is now completely controllable," said the offider. "Permit me- to assist you, and at the same time to proffer jmy card, with my name and rank." "Gratefully I accept both, and shall expect an early call, she said, as the oflico* lifted her to the saddle.

The gambler heard her words and saw the Took which accompanied them, and his was ghastly in his effort to suppress the rage which filled his brcst.

But he did not fur,-get his intention to force an acquaintance, at all events and at all risks.

Suggesting that thartad/'s horse was not yet under safe control, he asked permission to escort her as she rode on.

With dignity the lady declined his ofler on the ground that she did not need aid from a stranger, and preferred to ride alone.

Battled, the angry gambler turned to the oflicer, and demanded to see the card the lady had given.

The dein.md was refused with the con tempt it merited. The nled liberties, swearing to have satisfaction, demanded the card of the officer, who quietly gave it him, with his address.,,

"Mother, I have met my desthiy'nt last!" It was the mysterious equestrienne of the Central Park who spoke.

Beautiful in an evening neglige, with her brown curling hair falling over full sloping shoulders, her queenv form half concealed and half displayed in the loose robe she wore, her darV eyes full of en thusia-s'm, it was no wonder the mother paxed on her with proud admiration as nhe answered: "Your destiny, Anna? What do you mean?" "That I have this day had a strange ."»«lv«i*ttirc, dear mother. I have looked death squarely in the face, and had it not been for the man whom I term my desiinv, you \wj ild .now be childless. I will tell you all by and by, but this I will sav now. In him to whom I allude I have also found the first person.in whom my heart it its inner throbbings has ever ac knowledge*! an interest—the first whose voice has lingered on my ears after he out "of sight!"

in love, and

"Anna, have yoa fj with a stranger?" "1 am in love, I believe, mother, and with one whom I never saw1 until to-day, But he is not a stranger to me or to you, or to fame. He is an officer and a gen tleman, one whose service has been acknowledged bv deserved promotion, and who has made his mark with Ins pen as well as his sworil!" "His name, my daughter?" "Colonel Edgar Mansfield, rno lier. ITave you»not seen it in print "Yes, often but tell me how, when and where yon met him."

Anna Marston gave an account of the danger which she had escaped, and enthusiastically described the heroic con duct of her preserver. "Mother," she said, at the clo.e of her narration, "I looked down into his blue eves while I faltered between life and dea:h, and in their soulful depths I read my fate. In an instant I loved him with a love that will not know no change but in death." "Anna, my child, fhis is folly! To give your love before its is sought, is unmaidenlyio say the least." '•Mother, it is the voice of Nature, and who shall still its pleadings? Till now I have been as ice to all who have sought my siiyles—till now distrustful, believing that ihe heiress, and not the woman being wooed, vhould ne'er be won. But it is over. He will come to see hie—he will woo—I shall accept, arid I pray IJeavcn we shall be happy 1"

At a la!er hour, when Mrs. Marston as alone in the drawing-, oom, a servant ed and said: 'vjolonel Man ficld has called to Ktee Miss Anna."

Request him to walk in and I will gladly welcome him then you may inform my daughter of his arrival."

The Colonel on.'cied, and was received with a courtesy, a gra eful kindness, which made that .eenlv matron nobly prepossessing in his sight.

The conversation, hinging much on the service he had been so happv as to render, continued until the rustle of her dress announced beautiful Anna Marston, our heroine. As lie rose, she glided forward, and wi.h hands exten led to grasp his, exclaimed: "1 am so glad yoa have come so soon, that my dear mother may with myself join in a renewal of grateful expressions lor "A service which fortune threw in my wav, anj to which I hope-my kind friend will make no further allusions, for by the honor of her acquaintance I am more than rewarded. 1 hope you feel no evil efli-ct from the startling incidents of the day!" •'None at all. And I can now explain to vo:i how it occurred.

The reader, who has noted all the incidents of the plot laid by Belphor needs no repetition of them here.

Colonel Mansfield listened, and with the keen perception of a man of the world, read the entirejilot. in all its dark details. And while lie* rejoiced at its failure, he warned the lady that bad men seldom give up a wicked plan because foiled at first, and that she must yet guard against peril from these men.

Urged on, they could not say why, or cared not to ask, each in turn confided to the other a knowledge of their respective positions.

The colonel, who had gained his rank in the voluireer service, was now about to enter the regular army as a captain of avalry. He intended to do so, for in fron ier and garrison duty he could find leisure to use his pen, and the income

that, added to his regular pay, would enable him to continue to support and educate an orphan sister—his dear little Pearl, then at the Rutger's Female College. lie informed Miss Marston that his sister would graduate during the following week, and that it was his intention to then take her to the West with him. "For," he added, "she is too young, too pure to go out alone in contact with the orld." "When your dear sister graduates, I would like't'o have her here to live with

Birds shall sing in every window, and flowers greet her eye on every side. Promise me, my preserver, that you will let her live with me, at least for a time?" "I would be unjust to both you and her to refuse, and if you will, togeiher we will visit her to-morrow, for it is Saturday,, and she will be all day at home."

Anna, noble hearted, far above the elfishness of too many of the wealthy daugliers of America, now revealed her oufful nature, as well as a part of her history. "Do not think me bold, Colonel Mansfield," she said. "I do not mean to be. But-I'am, I fear, a spoiled child. Moth er was left a widow when I was very oung, with an immense fortune in her hands, a large part of which became mine a year ago, when I became of age. She has had me educated at home, but has allowed me always to have my owri way in everything. It lias made me independent and wilful, apt to speak just as feel, and to act as I believe right. If I err, forgive me." "Dear Miss Anna, your faults are the faults of an angel, and I can never see them. Were 1 wealthy, placed above the influences of that tide which, ebbing and flowing, carries poor humanity whither it wills, I would feel independent, and say more to you now than hoiiol- will permit. For "to tell you that I love you, to ask you to give.your love and hand to one unable to do more than to keep himself out of debt, and to raise aud educate one sweet sister, would indeed be dishonorable." "Edgar Mansfield, I drop alt ties, I corn all cold ceremony, I hate conventionalities. I acknowledge that I love you—that nature whispers to me you are the one, the only one to .whom I can contide the happiness of my life." "Oh, Anna, is not thisadream?" "No, Edgar Mansfield, it is real, and every word that I have uttered comas from my heart. The world, too cold to read hearts as hearts are, may not understand me, but yoif will. Love spring3 into existence as volcanic fires leap from the snow-crowned mountain, and 1 love!"

This outburst of affection was succeeded by a cry of alarm. Anna Marston, raising her eyes to the curtain of the large window, fronting the parlor* saw a face which she immediately recognized. Her startled exclamation caused the owner of the face to fly, and pursuit was jpade in vain.

To account for the presence of this strange face at Miss Marston's window, it is necessary to return to the" two gam biers. With bitter curses on his lips, Be'phor rejoined his partner, Durant, and explained the manner in which Mansfield had saved the lady and how he had been literally refused an opportunity to make any acquaintance with her.

While he was threatening to challenge his rival, for such he mentally made him the vagabond urchin who had shared in the work rushed tip, demanding the five dollars which Belphor had promised him.

Belphor gave him the money, and the boy was about to run off when the gambler said:

Not so fast, boy. I've more work for you. Do you see that officer walking to ward the drive? Well, I want him followed and watched. He'll go to his hotel iirst, that I am sure of. But after he comcs out again, I want t8 know where he goes, and I don't want 'him to know that he is watched. Do this and bring the information to my lodgings—here's my card, with thj address—and I'll give you live dollars more." "All right, gnv'nor," returned the bov who was about to set forth on the mission, when Durant stopped him. The latter, who had been intently scrntiniz' ing his face for some moments, fancied that he detected in his features a striking resemblance to those of a miserlv mil

lionaire who pretended to be a childless map. "Boy, wlial is yotir name?" Durant ask

"Avmings. "Awnings? That is a_ singular name Why are yon called Awninm?" "Because I was found under a heap of awnings when I was a squaller. But you'd better let me run alter that cove, if you don't-want him to get Out of- sight before I start."

With a motion Durant assented, and the boy started in pursuit of Col. Mansfield. The result of his mission has been inferred by the reader, for it was Awn ings' face that had startled Miss Marston when she beheld it gleaming at her through the window.

Her startled cry caused the boy to beat a hasty retreat, and with rapid footsteps he made his way to the gambler's dwelling to make his report.

Mr. Belphor was alone in h1s,shamber when the boy entered, but was joined by Mr. Leslie Durant before he had time to speak. "Well, have you followed that officer?" asked Belphor. 'I guess I" have, and seen the lady too, and he was so lovin' with her. I was 'in ten feet of'em for an hour, and, goslim' the love they did, talk! I'd have heard more. But she seen me and I had to cat and rnn or they'd have nabbed me, and I guess I'd got goalirt's^ thai P' "Where docs ths lady live?" "Why, close to Washington square, wlvere 1 got clubbed for stonin' sparrows." "And you heard the officer and lady talk?" continued Belphor. "You'd better believe I did. She said she loved him, and he said he loved her. And theylooked as if-thcy did.'' "You have done well," said Belphor.

There is a ten dollar bill for you—but the name of the lady, did you find that out!" "Yes, Ire called her Miss Anna first, and then he got down to Anna all alone, and then he hitched on a handle, and it was deai- Anna!" "You heard no other name!" "No." "Then you will have to show me the house." "Give me another X.and I will!" "You little raacal! have you no conscience?" "I guess not—have yoti, so I can see hat it's like?" "He hits you again, Frank," said Durant, laughing. "I guess the boy has as much conscience as cither you or I, and he would have precious little at that. You had better give him the extra ten and make him clean up and get better clothes, I think when the dirt and rags arc off, I'll remember who it is that lie looks like."

I'll give you another ten-dollar bill, hut you must go and wash and get some better clothes on if I do, so you can go ith me to the house. ''Will you do it?" "In course I will. I'll ketch cold, maybe, takin' off the rough dirt, but it isn't no worse than the measles. I've had them." "Can yoli get other clothes to-night?" "Yes night is just the time to work down on Water, or in Baxter street," a

Colonel Mansfield had just finished his morning'toilet the day after the occurrences just narrated, when a servant brought up a card, and announced the gentlemnn whose name it bore as waiting below. 'Lieutenant Muggins!'—A sfngular name. I remember no such officer but never mind—show him up!" said the colonel.

In a couple of minutes Lieutenant Muggins entered. He was not in uniform. He wore a black frock-coat that ..as rather seedy. His clothes had been. ]»ood and fashionable once, but it was "long, long ago." His fitce was not prepossessing. It had that brutalized Jook which the constant use of strong drink will give to any man. And yet there was something in his air, erect carriage, even in the manner ir which he bowed as he lifted his hat, that said lie had once been a gentleman. "Is this your card, sir—are you Lieutenant Muggins?" asked the colonel, as he handed a chair to the visitor. "That is my name-, sir. Have I the honor to address Colonel Edgar Mansfield?" replied the other. "My name is Mansfield, and I commanded the—the cavalry during the late unpleasantness. May I a*k to what branch of the service you are attached, as the lack of uniform does not permit me to judge without asking?"

To none at present. I was the infantry

but got sick and resigned. 1 have called, sir, oil very disagreeable business, that is to any but us military men it would be disagreeable."

And Lieutenant Muggins straightened up, took out a very shallow-looking pocket book, and from it extracted anote. -Rising, he extended this to the colonel, and said! "I have the honor, sir, to say that when you have taken note of the contents of that document, I shall be most happy to be referred to the friend whom you may select to arrange preliminaries."

The colonel took the note. It was unsealed. He read it and a sarcastic smile played over his features as he did so. It took but a few seconds, and then he quietly tore the missive into scraps and threw them on the floor. "What am I to infer from that action, sir? What reply am I to take back to my friend, Mr. Frank Belphor?" cried Lieutenant Muggins. "I have no reply to make to a man of his class and business," said the colonel, quietly. "When lie dies, if justice is done, the hangman will expedite him on his route below. It is not work for a gentleman to do. If you remain here one minute more, Lieutenant Muggins, after the declaration that you are the freind of a gambler and a scoundrel, yon will have the opportunity of saying that I condescended to kick yon out of my room."

You would kick me—me, sir? I'll— I'll "Well, sir, what will you do?"

And Colonel Mansfield rose from his chair, and began with a slow, measured step to advance toward the lieutenant, whose face was very red—almost purple —but now began to whiten. "I'll go, sir, without being kicked, to tell him you refuse to fight and he'll post you, sir, and chastise you, too! Maybe you'll kick him!"

The lieutenant was hurrying over the threshold when he said this, and as his face was yet turned toward what he deemed the point of attack—that is, the end of the colonel's heavy cavalry boot—he did not see where he was going, and, being at the head of a flight of stairs, he made an unexpectedly rapid descent.

All the collonel saw was his heels as they went up and the head went down. He felt no great anxiety about his fate however, and finishing his toilet, started shortly afterward to meet his dear yonng sister,

Major L. his worthy host, smiled as he passed out, and remarked quietly: "You made a ten-strike a little while ago, colonel. I knew what was up, and was glad to see you end tlie ga«W as you did."1 The continuation of "The Shadowed Altar" will be found in No. 17 of the New York Weekly, now ready, and for sale by every news agent throughout the country.

One of Ned Buntline's admirers, after reading the opening part of '"The Shadowed Altar," was so much delighted with it that in a burst of enthusiasm he dashed off tl» following lines:

This state of, partial epllapse is often tho Premonitory symptoms of some serious malady. It indicates unmistakably that the vital powers aris languishing and need a stimulant. In such casos the effect of a few doses of Hostotter's Stomach Bittors is wonderfully beneficial. The great tonic wakes up tho system from its dAwsb. Tho socretions and the circulation receive-a new impetus. The relaxed nerves recover their elasticity under tho operations of the specific, like the slackened strength of a musical ir strament in tho procoss of turning. Lethargy and dc'oility are replaced by energy and vigor, tho spirits rise, and life that almost soemed a burden while the season of depression lasted, becomes once more enjoyable. That such a radical change should be produced by a remedy entirely devoid of the powerful alkaloids and minerals so extensively used in modern practice, may seem incrcdiblo to those who pin their faith on the medicinal oflicacy of active poisons, but if theso skoptics will take tlio rouble to enquire of those who have tested tho corroctivo and alterative virtues of the Bitters under the circumstances described, they will find tho statement to Bo true. 16-dwlw.
