Nobie Lives.

i There are hearts that never falter i In the battle for the right ; | There are ranks that never alter Watching through the darkest night. And the agony of sharing In the fiercest of the strife Only gives a nobler daring, Only makes a grander life.

Bearing suffering and wrong ; Though the way is long and dreary t is vocal with their song ; While their spirit in God’s furnace Bending to his gracious will, And are fashioned in a purer mould By his loving matchless skill.

! ’ i 1 i There are those who never wear | 1 i |

There are those whose loving mission ‘Tis to bind the bleeding heart, And to teach the calm submission Where the pain and serrow smart. There are angels bearing to us Love’s richest ministry of peace ; While the night is nearing to us, And life’s bitter trials cease.

There are those who battle slander, Envy, jealousy and hate ;

Who weuld rather die than pander To the passions of earth’s great ; And no earthly power can crush them, They dread not the tyront’s frown, Neither fear nor favor hush them, Never bend their spirits down.

These, these alone are truly great ; These are conquerors af fate ;

These truly live, they never die, But clothed with immortality,

When they shall lay their armor down, Shall enter and obtain the crown.

THE WAR-TRAIL!

CHAPTER IX. ‘UN PAPELCITO.”

Wheatley now rode after the troop, which with Hollingsworth had already entered the corral. A band of drivers was speedily pressed into service; and with these the two lieutevauts proceeded to the great plain at the foot of the hill, where most of Don Ramon’s cattle were at pasture. By this arrangement I was left alone, if I except the company of half-a-dozen _slippered wenches, the deities of the cocina, who, clustered in the corner of the patio, eyed me with mingled looks of curiosity and fear. The verandah curtains remained hermetically closed, and though I glane- ed at every aperture that offers:d a chance to an observing eye, no one ap- peared to be stirriug behind them.

“Too high-bred—perhaps indiffereat?” thought I. The latter supposition was by no means gratifying to my vanity. ‘** After all, now that the others are gone out of the way, Don Ramon might ask me to step inside. Ah! no—these uestizo women would tell tales: I per- ceive jt would never do. I may as well give it up. I shall ride out and join the troop.”

As I turned my horse to put this design into execution, the fountain came under my eyes. Its water reminded me that | was thirsty, for it was a July day and a

hot one. A gourd cup lay on the edge of the tank, Without dismounting, ] was

able to lay bold of the vessel, and filliog it with the cool sparkling liquid, I drain- ed it off. It was very good water, but not Canario or Xeres.

Sweeping the curtain once more, I turned with a disappointed glance, and jagging my horse | rode doggedly out through the back gateway. Once in the rear of the buildings, I had a full view of the great meadow already known to me; and pulling up, I sat in the saddle, and watched the animated scene that was there being enacted. Bulls half wild, rushing to and fro in mad fury ; vaqueros mounted on their light mustangs, with streaming sash and wind- ing lazo; rangers upon their heavier steeds, offering but a clumsy aid to the more adroit and practised herdmen, others driving off large groups that had been already collected and brought into subjection ; and all this amidst the fierce bellowings of the bulls, the shouts and laughter of the delighted troopers, the shriller cries of the vaqueros aud peons, The whole formed a picture that, under other circumstances, I should have con- templated with interest. Just, then my spirits were not attuned to its enjoy- ment, and although I remained for some miautes with my eyes fixed upon it, my thoughts wandered elsewhere.

I confess to a strong faith in woman’s curiosity. That such a scene should be passing uuder the windows of the moat aristocratic mansion, without its aristocratic inmate deigning to take a peep at it, I could nt believe. Besides, Isolina was the very reverse. ‘Ha! Despite that jealous curtain, those beautiful eyes are glancing through some aperture—window or leop- hole. I doubt not;’ and with this re- flection, I once more tur.ed my face to the buildings.

Just thes, it occurred to me that I had not sufficiently reconnoitered the front of

StncLe Corres Two Cents.

VOL. 10.~-Nv. 18,

of the sala and grand cuarto, or drawing- ,room—~ precisely those where the inmates 'at that hour should be found.

| “Fool!” thought 1, **to have remained so long in the patio. Had I gone round to the front windows I might have | Tis not too Jate—there’s a chance yet.” | Under the impulse of this vew hope, )I1 rode back through the corral, and re-entered the patio. The browneskinned | mestizas were still there, chatteriug ard | florried as ever, and the curtain had not bene stirred. A glance at ii was ali I gave; and witout stopping, I walked |my horse across the paved court, and j;eutered under the arched saguar. The ;massive gate stood open, as we had heft it; and on looking into the little box [of the portero, I perceived that it was jempty. The man had hid himself, in idread of a secoud interview with the Texan lieutenant !

In another moment, I had emerged | from the gateway. and was about turn- | ing my horse to iuspect the windows, | when I heard the word “Capitan,’’ pro- ; nounced in a voice that sounded soft as a silver bell, end thrilled to my heart like a strain of music.

I looked towards the windows. It came not thence ; they were close shut as ever. Whevece— Before I had time to ask myself the question, the *Capi- tan” was repeated in a somewhat louder key, and I now perceived that. the voice proceeded from above—from the azotea, c

I wrenched my horse round, at the same time turning my eyes upward. I could see no ove; but just at that moment au arm, that might have been attached to the bust of Venus, was pro- truded through a notch in the parapet. In the small hand, wickedly sparkling with jewels, was something white, which

could not distinguish until I saw it projected on the grass—at the same moment that the phrase ** Un papelcito ” reached my ears.

Without hesitation I dismouated— made myself master of the papelcito; and then leaping once more into the saddle, looked upward I had purposely drawn my horse some distance from the walls, so that | might command a better view. I was not dappointed—Isolina! The face, that lovely face, was just distin- guighable through the slender embra- sure, the large brown eycs gazing upon me with that half-earnest, haif-mocking glance I had already noticed, and which produced within me both pleasure and pain !

A Mysterious Grotto.

A Marseilles paper, under the heading of ‘‘A Mysterious Grotto,” relates the follow- ing story:—Several sportsmen in pursuit of game in Formentera, one of the Balearic Islands, suddenly came upon a deep exca- vation, the entrance to which was covered by bushes and undergrowth. They pro- ceeded to explore it, and having with some difficulty removed several large stones found themselves in a well-built chamber of Moorish design. the wails of which were ornamented with undecipherable charac- ters. In the middle of the chamber were two tombs of admirable workmanship. On removing the metal covers by which they were closed the explorers discovered two colossal mummified bodies, one on the right being that of a young woman, the other that of aman. Onthe head of the woman was a diadem set with stones, which, if genuine are of inestimable value. Around her neck was a necklace of large pearls, two enormous earrings were at- tached to her ears, and her fingers were covered with rings. On the head of the man was an imperial crown, and in his hand held a spectre. Six of the discover- ers remained to guard the treasure, and the others left for Madrid to consult the authorities. The inhabitants are said to have known the cavern, but had never entered it, thinking it was only a resort for serpents.— Pall Mail Gazette.
