CAXOLI.ES AND HARRY CARTARET.
Walter 11 ay field had checked his horse a few paces distant from the two horsemen, and now heard them exchange a few low words which he could not distinguish. Then 1 larry Cartarat tnrned his horse, rode back to his company, gave an order to one of his officers, and then again joined Canolles. "Wait here tor me, Walter," said the latter to his companion, "I wish to say a tew words to Lieut. Cartaret—then we will ride on."
The two men turned into afield where a group of »2ven pine trees rose like duskv phantoms in the moonlight, which now began to glimmer above the trees, ard halting beneath the pines, dismounted. "You say you wished to see me tonight, Harry," said Canolles. "WelJ, that is curious, as I was in pursuit of you when you halted me." "Oli! yes! yes, Hartley! My dear Hartley!" exclaimed the young man. "I wished—longed, I should say, to sec

how noble you are in my eyes." Canolles fixed a upon his companion prise and inquirv. "Ah!" he said", quietly, "you have a warm heart, Harry. It was unnecessary to tell me that, or let me see it. I know very well that you love me—inatiradcr as I am and you know my affection for you is as great." "You are not a inaurader! You are a chevalier Bayard!—a thousand times nobler than the'noblest being I have ever met!"

Canolles was plainly in a maze, and his penetrating eyes demanded an explanation. "So you wished to see me to-night. For what purpose?" he said. "To tell you that I have come into possession ot something belonging to voir which should at least he returned to
vou. "What is that, Harry?" "This paper."
He nut his hand into his breast and drew out a small package. "Before returning it, let me tell you how I came into possession of it. V\ hen the enemy returned from Petersburg I was detatched by Gen Lafayette to cross the Appomattox" and harrass their rear. I did so, following them down toward Citv Point, and chancing to stop at the small house of a plain countryman by the roadside, in order to gain information, observed an open paper lying on his table."

"Ah!" said Canolles, "some order accidcntallv dropped by the enemy?" "That was my conjecture, and I seized the paper, asking the countryman where he had obtained it, or if the enem had left it. He replied that he had found it lying in a wood road near—a sort of bridle path leading by a short cut toward Petersburg—and thinking it might prove of some value brought it home.1' "Naturally, but he ascertained speedily what the paper contained "Not at all. He could not read."
Oh I see. But as you, my dear Harry, are somewhat more accomplished. you proceeded to decipher the document." "Yes," said Harry in a low tone. "And this mysterious document—but, one thing puzzles me." "What is that "Why you should have begun by saying that you Vished to return this' paper to me, as my property." "To you—or another person. "Another person?" "Yes." "What person? and what can be your meaning, dear Harry: You puzzle me enormously. What under Heavens have I to do with a paper picked up by chance 011 the roadside between Petersburg and City Point?"

THE COMMISSION.
Canolles had scarcely read three of the paper in his own
lines
possibly from his close confinement in
Petersburg—and Harry was burned
darker by the summer sun. Their resem-
blance to each other was thus almost perfect, and but for their different uniforms they would searcely have been recognizable one from the other.

"Let the future dccide your action, Harry, be it what it may— and now let us forget all this." "But—" "Lev us sav no more about it, Harry. You love me and I love you. We go different ways, but I t'.4ink we shall love each other to the end. N'ot another word now—let the American lieutenant of cavalry, and the Virginia marauder part in peace!'' "You arc no longer a marauder—if you ever were one was the reply of the young man, who seemed to feel the tiselessness of further remonstrance, at least for the present, on the subject of discussion. "I am not a marauder, do you sav, Harry
The young man drew a second paper from his pocket and presented it to Canolles. "What's that he asked.

With these words Canolles mounted his horse his companion imitated him, and they rode back to the highway, where at a signal from the partisan, Walter joined them—he and Harry exchanging a grasp of the hand, evidently as old friends. "And now, H"arry, pass me through your picket—I must go oelow," said Canolles, pointing toward James river.

Canolles mounted, touched hi.-, horse with the spur, and set forward at a sallop, knowing well that the noise made on the march by fifty men—the clash of sabres against s' irrups, and the smiting of hoofs—would completely drown the sound of his own and Walter's gallop on the sandy road.
They "went on thus for about, half: mile, the noise growing gradually louder and then a dusky mass was seen in front moving slowly, evidently at a walk, over the white road against which the figures were clearly defined in the moonlight.
When lie" was within two hundred yards of tne party Canolles stopped and seemed to reflect. "We might join the column as stragoicrs, Walter," he said.

"Your purpose, Captain r" "I am anxious to know who these people are, where they are going, and what their object is." "Yes, Ca-stain."

"Around "To the front, and try to find out what I wish to know.

on his left, and was nearer to the par-
tisans, was a young man apparently from
a twentv-five to twenty-eight"short of stat-
muscular limbs, and wore the uniform of a Lieutenant-Colonel of cavalry of the British army.
J"That is my especial personal friend, Col. Tarleton," said Canolles. "Lord Ferrers, you know, Walter. But where are they going?"
Despite every effort made by the partisan he could not hear what the two officers were saying to each other—which indeed, amounted to very little. They spoke only at intervals and then in low tones.
Canolles checked his horse, making a sign to Walter. "The undergrowth is too thick to go nearer," he said, .quietly "we should be

"Nor I, Captain! and for the same reason you do not." "What reason?" "You are going to attack them!" "I attack them?" said Canolles, laughing. "Why, they are two or three to one, if all my men were even here." "Which makes it all the more agreeable to you, Captain. Don't try to deceive me as to your intensions!"
Canolles smiled this time, and said: "Well, let us halt here and count them, if possible, as they pass. There is the head of the column, fifty paces behind the officer^. Make your own count, Walter, and I will make mine and then we will compare them."
Holding h:s rein carelessly in his left hand, and raising his right with the foreffngfcr extended, Canolles moved the finger after the fashion of a shepherd counting his sheep, and Walter imitated him. When the last man had defiled by, the partisan turned his head and said: "Well, how many, Walter?" 'Fifty-two, Captain." "Good." "What was your count?" "Fifty-two." having uttered these words Canolles made his companion a sign, wheeled to the left, and apparently dismissing from his mind all further interest in the reconnoitering party, penetrated the densest part of the swamp.
Anybody, however, who had been the vicinity of the British bivouc toward dawn and followed them afterwards as they continued their march southward about sunrise, would have been aware from slight noises in the swamp, that some person or persons, moving stealthily, had the British squadron in view, and were tracking it step by step as it advanced.
