ones. Besides, men were inclined to be rough and fierce by nature. Thus she reassured and reproached herself. Perhaps she had driven him 鏉窞鍝佽尪涓婅寰俊缇?away, perhaps her timidity had made him doubt her love. Perhaps she had been too squeamish. After all….

She rose the next morning with a bad headache and her eyes staring rather plaintively out of black saucers. None the less she was happy, even in spite of 鏉窞涓濊璋冩暀 her[Pg 344] regrets. She loved and had been loved, so she told herself over and over again as she dressed David and Bill and prepared the breakfast. Why, even if, when he got home, Joe Dansay discovered that he

did not really love her, she would still have had his love, and 鏉窞鎸夋懇鎶偐 as for herself, she would go on loving him for ever鈥?for ever and ever and ever,” she repeated in a low, trembling voice as she cut her father’s bacon.

During the rest of the day it was the same鈥攕he moved in a kind of exalted dream. The most common objects thrilled her, and gave her unexpected tokens 鏉窞涓嶆瑙勬寜鎽╀环浣?of divinity. Her work was consuming, her leisure beatific. The children loved her, for that day she could do what she had never done properly to their mind, and that is鈥攑lay; while with Harry, dribbling and muttering, she was tender, as no one but Naomi had been.

Towards evening uneasiness sprang up again, with the old question鈥攚ould he return? She told herself that if he did, she would not hold back, she would not let her inexperience and timidity rob her or him of their love. She would let him kiss her as he pleased鈥攍ove was too 鏉窞榫欏嚖419璁哄潧good a thing to risk for a few qualms. But would he come?鈥攚ould he give her the chance of reparation?

Caro ran out once or twice into the 鏉窞妗戞嬁spa鐢熸椿棣?garden; the flowers hung pale and stirless on their stems, and from the orchard, full of the babble of a hidden wind, came a faint scent of plums. The old walls of Odiam seemed to smell of the sunshine they had caught and held during the day. The gable-ends broke into 鏉窞澶滅綉妗戞嬁浣撻獙璁哄潧 the stars, and the windows gleamed in the yellowing light of the moon. Up towards the south the mass of Boarzell rose hullish and deserted鈥攆ar away at Ellenwhorne a dog was barking, but all else was still.
Chapter 5
There was no doubt that Joe Dansay had got drunk at Willie 鏉窞澶滅敓娲绘澀宸炵櫨鑺卞潑 Tailleur’s wedding. The fact was cruelly emphasised by the headache with which he woke up the next morning. He thought it very hard luck, for after all, he had not got nearly so drunk as he might have, as he often had. However, he had been forced into abstinence by a long voyage from Sierra 鏉窞澶滅綉鏉窞榫欏嚖缃?Leone, and put down his sufferings to nature’s mutiny at such an unwholesome state of affairs.

At present he lodged with some relations in Watchbell Street, and round him were all the Dansays and Tailleurs and Espinettes and Perrots, the Rye fisher tribe, of French 鏉窞姘寸枟浼氭墍楠岃瘉 origin鈥攚hich was still traceable in their names, in their brown eyes, and the sensitiveness of their mouths.

ched forward, almost turned a somersault, and fell on his rider.

“Stop鈥攖he paper!” shouted Bader.

We drew rein, turned, dismounted, and found Miller’s left leg under the big bay’s shoulder. The horse was quite dead, the rider’s long hair lay on the sand, his face was white under 鏉窞419缇?the moon!

We stopped long enough to extricate him, and he came to his senses just as we made out that his left leg was broken.

“Forward!” he groaned. “What in thunder are you stopped for? Oh, the despatch! Here! away you go! Good-bye.”

In attending to Miller we 鏉窞spa鎸夋懇浼氭墍 had forgotten the rider who had been long gradually dropping behind. Now as we galloped away,鈥擝ader, Absalom Gray, myself, and Crowfoot’s riderless horse,鈥擨 looked behind for that comrade; but he was not to be seen or heard. We three were left of the eleven.

From the loss of so many 鏉窞瓒崇枟鎸夋懇浠蜂綅comrades the importance of our mission seemed huge. With the speed, the noise, the deaths, the strangeness of the gallop through that forsaken village, the wonder how all would end, the increasing belief that thousands of lives depended on our success, and the longing to win, my brain was wild. A raging desire to be first held me, and I galloped as if in a dream.

Bader led; the riderless gray thundered beside him; Absalom rode stirrup to stirrup with me. He was a veteran of the whole war. Where it was that his sorrel rolled over I do not remember 鏉窞濡冨瓙闃乿ivi at all, though I perfectly remember how Absalom sprang up, staggered, shouted, “My foot is sprained!” and fell as I turned to look at him and went racing on.

Then I heard above the sound of our hoofs the voice 鏉窞鍏荤敓棣嗕綋楠?of the veteran of the war. Down as he was, his spirit was

unbroken. In the favorite song of the army his voice rose clear and gay and piercing:鈥?

“Hurrah for the union!
Hurrah, boys, hurrah!
Shouting the battle-cry of freedom!”

We turned our heads and cheered him as we flew, for there was something indescribably inspiring in the gallant and cheerful lilt of the fallen man. It was as if he flung us, from the grief of utter defeat, a soul unconquerable; and I felt the life in me strengthened by the tone.

Old Bader and I for it!鏉窞澶滅敓娲诲摢閲屾场濡瑰瓙 He led by a hundred yards, and Crowfoot’s gray kept his stride. Was I gaining on them? How was it that I could see his figure outlined more clearly against the horizon? Surely dawn was not coming on!

No; I looked round on a world of naked peach-orchards, and corn-fields ragged with last 娴欐睙鏉窞榫欏嚖璁哄潧 year’s stalks, all dimly lit by a moon that showed far from midnight; and that faint light on the horizon was not in the east, but in the west. The truth flashed on me,鈥擨 was looking at such an illumination of the sky as would be caused by the camp-fires of an army.

“The missing brigade!” I shouted.

“Or a Southern division!” Bader cried. “Come on!”

“Come on!” I was certainly gaining on him, but very slowly. Before the nose of my bay was beyond the tail of his roan, the wide illuminations had become more distinct; and still not a vidette, not 鏉窞TY璁哄潧 a picket

ver, and another man covered the Indian with a revolver.

At that movement the Indians started for the big gate, and as there was quite a number of warriors inside the fort I called my men out with their guns, for the Indians seemed determined on bloodshed. They rushed outside, and the white men followed them to where a young chief sat on his horse, just outside of the gate. There must have been a signal given to the camp above, 杭州洗浴桑拿小姐收费 for the warriors came running with their rifles in hand, until seventy-five to one hundred warriors were on the ground, while there were only about forty white men. Everybody wanted to say something, and in the confusion that followed some ten or twelve men leveled 杭州龙凤夜生活 their guns to shoot, being in such close quarters that they struck each other as they brought their weapons into position.

At that moment I sprang under the guns and

held some of them up, and forbade the men to shoot. This act seemed to please the young chief, and he commanded his men to desist. I ordered my 杭州油压按摩会所体验 men back and into their bastions, and to bar the gate. This done, I took a position in the watchtower, where I talked with their chief through a porthole, and told him that we were in a position to do them harm, but did not wish to do so, yet they must withdraw in 杭州419同城 peace and not molest our property, for we should defend it and ourselves to the best of our ability. I said that if they would withdraw peacefully we would not interfere with them, but to that they would not agree. After considerable parleying, however, they did withdraw to their camp among the cottonwood timber and willows on the creek, and built large fires, around which they danced and sang war songs the greater part of the night, while we made every possible preparation for defense.

As captain of the fort, I wrote a despatch to the governor and superintendent of Indian 杭州桑拿洗浴会所 affairs, stating the facts. Then we covered with blankets a slab bridge that had to be crossed near the gates, to deaden the sound of the horse’s feet as he went out, and a clever young man by the name of Benjamin Roberts speeded away with the note to Salt Lake 杭州桑拿水磨会所全套 City.

On the 11th all was quiet. A few Indian lodges remained near our fort, and the women and children were around them as usual, so Isaac Bullock and I went down to learn what the situation was. We found some of them friendly, while others were very sulky. The main part of the Indian camp had gone down the creek, and we thought it safe to turn our stock out under a mounted guard, with one man in the watchtower to keep a lookout. About 2 p.m. the man at the watchtower sounded an alarm, saying he saw a great dust in the north; and a few minutes later he shouted that a large 杭州4197龙凤论坛 body of horsemen was in sight, coming rapidly from the north, while our horse guards were coming with our band of horses, hastening with all speed to the fort. Immediately every man was called to take a position for prompt action. I occupied a commanding place, 杭州足疗项目 giving instructions to the men not to shoot without my order, and then not unless they felt sure of making every shot tell. They were told to see th

ains its precise object, namely, the averting of other men by terror from a similar crime.

Another ridiculous reason for torture is the purgation from infamy; that is to say, a man judged infamous by the laws must confirm his testimony by the dislocation of his bones. This abuse ought not to be tolerated in the eighteenth century. It is believed that pain, which is a physical sensation, purges from infamy, which is merely a moral condition. Is pain, then, a crucible, and 鏉窞娲楁荡濞变箰浼戦棽鍦烘墍 infamy a mixed 鏉窞妗戞嬁鎸夋懇瀵绘 impure substance? But infamy is a sentiment, subject neither to laws nor to reason, but to common opinion. Torture itself causes real infamy to the victim of it. So the result is, that by this method infamy will be taken away by the very fact of its infliction!

It is not difficult to go back to the origin of this ridiculous law, because the absurdities themselves that a whole nation adopts have always some connection with other common ideas which the same nation respects. The custom seems to have been derived from religious and spiritual ideas, which have so great an influence on the thoughts of men, on nations, and on generations. An infallible dogma assures us, that the stains contracted by human weakness[156] and undeserving of the eternal anger of the Supreme Being must be purged by an incomprehensible fire. Now, infamy is a civil 鏉窞姘寸枟浠锋牸 stain; and as pain and fire take away spiritual and incorporeal stains, why should not the agonies of torture take away the civil stain of infamy? I believe that the confession of a criminal, which some courts insist on as an essential requisite for condemnation, has a similar origin;鈥攂ecause in the mysterious tribunal of repentance the confession

of sins is an essential part of the sacrament. This is the way men abuse the surest lights of revelation; and as these are the only ones which exist in times of ignorance, it is to them on all occasions that docile humanity 鐖辨澀宸為緳鍑ら榿璁哄潧 turns, making of them the most absurd and far-fetched applications.

These truths were recognised by the Roman legislators, for they inflicted torture only upon slaves, who in law had no personality. They have been adopted by England, a nation, the glory of whose literature, the superiority of whose commerce and wealth, and consequently of whose power, and the examples of whose virtue and courage leave us no doubt as to the goodness of her laws. Torture has also been abolished in Sweden; it has been abolished by one of the wisest monarchs of Europe, who, taking philosophy with him to the throne,

has made himself the friend and legislator of his subjects, rendering them equal and free in their dependence on the laws, the sole kind of equality[157] and liberty that reasonable men can ask for in the present condition of things. Nor 鏉窞瀹跺涵寮忓吇鐢熶細鎵€ has torture been deemed necessary in the laws which regulate armies, composed though they are for the most part of the dregs of different countries, and for that reason more than any other class of men the more likely to require it. A strange thing, for whoever forgets the power of the tyranny exercised by custom, that pacific laws should be obliged

en we entered; but now they were gone.

“I’m not single-handed,” said the officer, comfortably. “See that seat by the door? One of the attendants sits there all day long.”

“Then where is he now?”

We listened, and we did 鏉窞妗戞嬁浼氭墍 hear them, but not just outside. In my own mind I even questioned whether they were in the corridor through which we had come; to me it sounded as though they were just outside the corridor.

“You mean the fellow with the billiard-cue who was here when we came in?” pursued Raffles.

“That wasn’t a billiard-cue! It was a pointer,” the intelligent officer explained.

“It ought to be a javelin,” said Raffles, nervously. “It ought to be a 鏉窞妗戞嬁璁哄潧钂插弸浜ゆ祦 poleaxe! The public treasure ought to be better guarded than this. I shall write to the Times about it鈥攜ou see if I don’t!”

All at once, yet somehow not so suddenly as to excite suspicion, Raffles had become the elderly busybody with nerves; why, I could not for the life of me 鏉窞鎸夋懇鐐硅瘎 imagine; and the policeman seemed equally at sea.

“Lor’ bless you, sir,” said he, “I’m all right; don’t you bother your head 鏉窞妗戞嬁鎸夋懇灏忓 about ME.”

“But you haven’t even got a truncheon!”

“Not likely to want one either. You see, sir, it’s early as yet; in a few minutes these here rooms will fill up; and there’s safety in numbers, as they say.”

“Oh, it will fill up soon, will it?”

“Any minute now, sir.”

“Ah!”

“It isn’t often empty as long as this, sir. It’s the Jubilee, I suppose.”

“Meanwhile, what if my friend and I had been professional thieves? 鏉窞鎸夋懇濂冲浘鐗?Why, we could have over-powered you in an instant, my good fellow!”

“That you couldn’t; leastways, not without bringing the whole place about your ears.”

“Well, I shall write to the Times, all the same. I’m a connoisseur in all this sort of thing, and I won’t have unnecessary risks 鏉窞瓒虫荡浼氭墍run with the nation’s property. You said there was an attendant just outside, but he sounds to me as though he were at the other 鏉窞娌瑰帇鍝濂?end of the corridor. I shall write to-day!”

For an instant we all three listened; and Raffles was right. Then I saw two things in one glance. Raffles had stepped a few inches backward, and stood poised upon the ball of each foot, his arms half raised, a light in his eyes. And another kind of light was breaking over the crass features of our friend the constable.

“Then shall I tell you what I’LL do?” he cried, with 鏉窞鎸夋懇鏈嶅姟鍝噷鏈?a sudden clutch at the whistle-chain on his chest. The whistle flew out, but it never reached his lips. There were a couple of sharp smacks, like double barrels discharged all but simultaneously, and the man reeled against me so that I could not help catching him as he fell.

“Well done, Bunny! I’ve knocked him out鈥擨’ve knocked him out! Run you to the door and see if the attendants have heard anything, and take them on if they have.”

Mechanically I did as I was told. There was no time for thought, still less for remonstrance or reproach, though my surprise must have been even more complete than that of the constable before Ra

letters, and have subjoined remarks upon the Christian religion at the close, because I deem that 鏉窞娲楁荡鍦烘墍 M. Droz, in not 鏉窞鏈€濂界殑姘寸枟浼氭墍recurring to these fundamental principles at the beginning of his work, and in dwelling with so little earnestness upon the hope of the gospel, as an element of happiness, at the close, has left chasms in it which ought to be supplied.

The sect, numerous in my day, in yours, I trust, will have disappeared, who hold that religion

and philosophy are militant and irreconcilable

principles. Such persons are accustomed to brand these broad views of Providence and moral obligation with the odium of impiety. You will hardly need my assurance, that, if I thought with them,鏉窞娲楁荡鍝濂? my right hand should forget its cunning, before I would allow anything to escape my pen which might have the least tendency to impair in your minds the future and eternal sanctions of virtue. I shall hereafter enlarge upon my persuasion, that, so far 鏉窞鍝釜浼氭墍濂界帺 from being in opposition, 鏉窞涓濊璁哄潧 religion and philosophy, when rightly understood, will be found resting on the same immutable foundation. It is because the misguided friends of religion have attempted to sustain them, as separate and hostile interests, in my view, that the former has made so little progress towards becoming universal. It will one day be understood, that whatever wars with reason and common sense, is equally hostile to religion. The simple and unchangeable truths of Christianity will be found to violate none of our most obvious convictions. Truth will reassume her legitimate 鏉窞鐢峰＋绉佷汉楂樼骇鍏荤敓浼氭墍 reign. Piety, religion and morals, our best interests for this life, and our surest preparations for a future one, will be[10] found exactly conformable to the eternal order of things, and the system of the gospel will become universal, according 鏉窞涓濊鎸夋懇瀹炰綋搴?to its legitimate claims. True piety, in my mind, is equally our duty, our wisdom and happiness. To behold God everywhere in his works, to hold communion with him in a contemplative and admiring spirit, to love, and trust him, to find, in the deep and constantly present persuasion of his being and attributes, a sentiment of exhaustless cheerfulness and excitement to duty, I hold to be the source of the purest and sublimest pleasure, that earth can afford.

True philosophy unfolds the design of final causes with a calm and humble wisdom. It finds the Creator everywhere, and always acting in wisdom 鏉窞鐨剆pa and power. It traces the highest benevolence of intention, where the first aspect showed no apparent purpose, or one that seemed to tend to misery; offering new inducements to learn the first and last lesson of religion, and the 鏉窞涓濊qq ultimate attainment of human wisdom鈥攔esignation to the will of God. In vindicating his ways to men, it declares that so long as we do not understand the laws of our being and so long as we transgress them, either ignorantly, or wilfully and unconsciously, misery to ourselves must just as certainly follow as that we can neither resist nor 鏉窞缇庡闄㈡帓琛屾 circumvent them; and that the Omnipotent has forged every link of the chain, that connects our own unhappiness with every transgression of the laws of our nature

ON THE RIVER’S BANK.
Dense forests, broken here and there by clearings, covered the banks of the river, and reminded our young friends

of the Menam River, in Siam, or the Me-Kong, in Cambodia. Thirty miles from the mouth of the river brought them to Minatitlan, a tumble-down village or town with 鏉窞娲楁荡涓€鏉￠緳 a few hundred inhabitants, who are chiefly engaged in doing nothing, if one is to judge by appearances. The business of Minatitlan is not large, and is chiefly connected with trade in mahogany and other tropical woods.

on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, which has long been under consideration as the route for a canal to connect the Atlantic with the Pacific. The width of the isthmus from ocean to ocean is 143 miles, but by making use of the rivers on either side the length of a canal would be little, if any,鏉窞瓒虫荡澶у叏 more than 100 miles. The route has been surveyed at different

times, notably in 1870, by Captain Shufeldt of the United States Navy, who declared that there was no insurmountable obstacle to the construction of a ship-canal.
Recently the Mexican 鏉窞鐢峰＋鍏荤敓 Government has given to an English company a concession for a railway across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. One of the surveyors of this company was a passenger on the steamer with our friends, who fell into conversation with him during dinner, and learned many things of interest. The engineer told them that work was to begin immediately on the railway, and they hoped to have it completed by the end of 1889.
Doctor Bronson recalled the fact that in 1842 a concession was granted
[Pg 425]
to Don Jos茅 de Garay for the Tehuantepec Railway, but nothing was accomplished, for the simple reason 鏉窞姘寸（qq缇?that the money for the work could not be obtained. As soon as the Garay concession fell through, the United States Government offered $15,000,000 for the right of way across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, but the offer was declined. During the California 鏉窞涓嶆瑙勭殑娌瑰帇搴?gold excitement a Tehuantepec transit line was established. Steamers ran between the isthmus and San Francisco on the Pacific side, and to New York and New Orleans on the Atlantic. Passengers were carried across the neck of land in stage-coaches. The enterprise proved unprofitable, and was abandoned after a few years.
A STEAMSHIP ON A PLATFORM CAR.
What interested Frank and Fred more than anything else at this point was the suggestion that huge ships might yet be transported across the isthmus, not by canal but on a railway. Their new-found friend told them about the project of 鏉窞钃濋捇澶╂垚缇庡コ Capt. James B.
