Bat before be was fairly on bia feet, Forsyth had thrown off bat, coat, and waisteost, and was running swiftly down to the surf.

He had not spent some months on the Coromandel coast for nothing and Sloee, who had prepared to follow him, bad not reached the water before be bad brought tbe young girl safely in, only very badly frightened, and in no way hurt.

In another moment she was surrounded, and carried off by an anxious group of friends, but not before she bad given Forsyth, on bis releasing her, one look which sent a strange thrill of hope to bis heart. He would have been overwhelm* ed with congratulations, bad not his friend Mose insisted on taking him off to find dry slothes*. "Cap," said he, as be wrung his hand, "you are mighty spfy in the water I never see a thing better done. I'd have been in myself in a minute to help thst young woman, but I guees she'd rather have you.

In another minute be would be in the roam. Forsyth, with a sudden impulse, bent over with a sudden impulse, bent over and pressed bis lips to Nellie hand.

He thought that be had been quick enough to escape the sharp eyes ot bis hoy friend but when tbe latter bad told him tbat tbe mysterious old gentlemen

Forsyth walked hurriedly back, with a strange feeling of excitement gaining I possession of him. Before he joined the circle at the bouse, a message had been sent to "Fire Pisco," a landing in Gar-1 diner's Bay, for a boat, and Mose Stratum wm to oall u&xt oiora-

log with a wagon. Then be entered (be parlor, where be found bis friend* as[eembled. *•.

He told them at onoe of what be had heard, I and of bis intention to make the search next day. Tbey expressed the warmest I Interest, and the project tor the morrow met general approval* except from Mas ter Sam. "That's too bsd, cap," he said. "I

It was in vain that tbe captain had protested tbat he had done nothing, tbat Miss Warden was in no real danger, and he bad only feared she would go too far out people would make a hero of him, and tberd had been a little scene, in which tbe young lady herself. with an added color in ber cheeks ana a dewy moistnre in ber lovely eyes bad oome op and given bim ber band, told him tbat sbe very well knew in what danger she bad been, and thanked him for saving'her.

Forsyth had proposed taking si private oonvey ance to tbe train, but Nellie nrged that Jerry William*, who bad driven her safely about tbe country for years, and was anxious to officiate on this ocossion, should not be 'dlssppMuted so Jerry drove his stage opto the-door before the guests at tbe informal reception bad begun to take tbelr departure. He had on what he called his "store clothes," and there was rosette on each hone's head.

I was coming home not long ago from the far Bast^ and had reached Europe lb

a state of mental and physieal demoralisation. Tbe Red Sea had been nnusully hot, and the Mediterranean so rough tbat the great Messageries steamer tumbled about like a sdbooner. Then tbe health authorities at Naples, who were not on good terms with the French, wanted to quarantine as became a man lad been taken with jaundice at Port Said, and thus I lost my trip through Italy, and bad to go on to Marseilles, just catching the "mistral" in the Gulf of Lyons.

In the course ofa couple of hours' pleasant chat he told me that be was on his way to visit bis cousin and her husband at Upton Manor, near Tunbridge Wells, and urged me to join him, with tbe sssuranoe of a hearty welcome. Major (late Captain) and Mrs. Forsyth came down to meet my friend, ana I bad my first sight, after many years, of this chaining womsn on tbe Folkestone pier. In tbe oourseoftbe hour's ride to Tunbridge ber husband made me feel as if I bid known him sll my life, and my visit to the old estate, lying on an elevated plateau, and surrounded by tbe quiet and beautiful Kentish scenery, was highly enjoyable. I found my fair country-woman easily Queen of Hearts in tbe oounty, and oombining a vigorous yet altogether pleasing sssertion of her own nationality with a cheerful defer ence to local canons and when, after a rowded and pleas

I bad promised to make a pilgrimage to Eastbampton, apd was well repaid for mv trouble. I saw it, just as my friends had seen U, dozing the years away, quiet, restful, intereetfng as ever. I staid at tbe hospitable boarding-house,' at which I found Mr. and Mrs. Warden still remaining alter their summer, Ethel being witb her husband on tbe Texas frontier, and Sam, a Junior at Columbia,

One day just after sunset I went into the old grave-yard, -where I found all the surroundings for a new "Gray's Elegy." The bell for "evening meeting" sounded like tbe knell of parting day, tbe lowing herd moved slowly along the grassy road, the rude forefathers of the hamlet slept around me, and Isiwthe grave of tbe old Scotch gentleman, who had died at an advanced age, just as be bad lived, peacefully, oontentedly, and utterly unknown.

We walked from the station toward tbe beach, which was covered as of old with gay groups. There were signs of more than one little drama ot love and happiness, but tbe remembrance of the one of which I have told was enough for an old fellow like myself, and I left some other chronicler to record the next romance of Easthampton. ist
