To run aground or be pd against some iron-bound shore in pitchy darkness would be death in its i frightful shape. Yet the certainty ol I was easier to bear than the suspense fere compelled to endure, and the con Isness that every moment might be pst. -Bolsover, being still weak, could me little help, and except when I took pur’s rest, once or twice in the twenty 11 was always at the helm. But ever; Is strength has its limits, and aftei |e I became so used up that I could 1 it no longer. re can only die once," I said to Bolso “and whether we live or die, 1 must t" I lashed the wheel amidships anc ed in. nen i awose mere was a gummermj but whether of gloaming or dawn 1 not determine, for I had lost all it of time, knew not the day of the , and had forgotten to wind up both own watch and the late captain’s nometer. ent on deck, and found the helm still led amidships; but Bolsover was no ire to be seen, and I looked into his k, and armed with a lantern, visited his accustomed haunts without result, pod bless me!” I thought. “He aurelj mot have fallen overboard!

Yet it led hardly possible for a sick man tc b in the dark to the mast-head of a that was rolling like a log. iy, ay. sir; it’s me. I’ll be down dl y,” was the answer, n minntes later (by which time it was ledly lighter) he came sliding down throuds. Vhat were yon thinking of, to gs up tc nast-head in your present weak stated d. reproach fully. “Suppose you had (lien overboard?” ‘“And if I had.

You said a man can onlj le once. AU the same I don’t think there’! inch risk in going to the mast-head—I am tronger than I was when you went asleej -and fogs is queer sorts of things; it often appens as they lies just on the top of the rater, and all above is clear and bright lostways, so I've heard say. So I thought s I would just go up and find out, if 1 t>uld, whether this here fog is of that then atnre.” “U it?” “Partly. Anyhow, it to a good deal clearer up there than down here, and a> score yards or so higher up I dare say it to broad daylight. Alt the same, I saw the sun rise; and, whpt’s more, I made out something as looks very like land.” “Land! Land at last I Thaxk God!" I gasped, almost speechless with surprise and joy. “But are you suro you are not mistaken 1 Where away ?” . “On the port bow. No, I don’t think I am mistaken. It looks like a big moun | tain, fifteen or twenty miles off, may be. Give me a glass, and I’ll go up again and have another squint.” “I’ll go with yon, Tom. Wait halt a minute.” As I spoke I whipped Into the captain’s cabin and fetched two binoculars. I slung one round my neck and hauded the other to the boatswain. “Don’t you think as yon had better take the helm, sir, and keep her up to the wind? She rolls so much as it will hardly be pos sible to make anything out. Then, when I I come down, which It won’t be many min utes, I can take the helm and you cau go up.” There was so much sense In this sugges tion that I was fain to comply with it, not withstanding my eagerness “to take a squint” on my own account—and It was well I did. As I went to the wheel, the boatswain began to' climb up the shrouds, slowly and painfully, being still rather short-winded and wenk-kneed. 1 bad just steadied the ship, and he had got as far as the upper main-topsail yard, when there came out of the fog a hail so startling and unexpected that It almost made me jump out of my skin. “Starboard! Hard a starboard! For God’s sake starboard your helm!” As I whirled round the wheel the fog rolled back and revealed a scene the like -of which I had never before beheld, or oven imagined, and old Tom came down on the deck with a run. CHAPTER XIII.—PAINTED OR PIEBALD* Right before us rose sheer out of the water a tall white rock, at least fifty feet high. Another moment and we would have crashed against it, “stem on.” We were saved only by Tom’s sharpness of vision, by tho promptitude with which 1 obeyed his order, and the sudden lifting ol the fog. But are we saved f There are rocks te the right of us, rocks to the left of us, some white, others red, yet all of great height, with splintered, fantastic pinnacles and broken battlements like the keeps of so many ruined castles; some as naked ns an Alpine peak above the snow-line, others mantled with a luxuriant growth of green ery and pendant wild flowers, while the waves leap up their sides and troops of sea birds wheel round their summits. A ver itable labyrinth of rocks; nnd ns 1 look up after the first shock of surprise, I see in scribed on one of them, in old-fnshioned and bold yet worn characters, these start ling words. “Hero tho ‘Santa Anna' "1744.” There seems to be another word.'but be ing covered witli a spray of ivy, I cannot make it out. Whether Bolsover sees the inscription I do not know. He is at the bows, conning the ship, and 1 am steering; the passnge between the line of rocks being so narrow, and the current or tide so strong that it requires most strenuous attention to avoid striking. More than once the yards scrape the brow of some beetling cliff, and only by Heaven’s help and old Tom’s skillful pilotage do we escape utter destruction. At length the stress is over, and with an Indescribable sense of thankfulness and relief we sail into open water. We can breathe freely. Danger and the dark sea are behind, hope and a harbor of refuge before us. We are in a wide, crescent shaped bay, fringed with a shore of white sand, from which rises, in gentle slopes, a glorious mountain, on whose summit waves a cloud-banner, which at first sight 1 mis take for the smoke of a volcano. Save for the white limestone crags with which it is crowned, the mountain is clad with'yerdure from top to bottom. Field alternates with forest; I can distinguish roads, too, and here and there is a quaint house of wood, not unlike the chalets that lend so great a charm to the valleys of Switzerland and the Tyrol. All this, of course, through a binocular. We are still too far off to see much with the naked eye. "Heaven only knows where we are,” I said to Tom, who by this time had come aft. “But it seems a civilized sort of place. No danger of our being killed and eaten, I think.” “Not a bit. Cannibals don’t build houses or make ronds uke them there. I wonder whether it’s an island or a continent? Anyhow, it is well protected. That line of reefs stretches from one point of the bay to the other. It is a miracle how we (rot through. If the fog had not lifted just when it did—and it did not lift much—we should have gone to everlasting smash. We came out of it; that was it. Look there!” li was true, ueyonu me Darner or rocas the mist still rested on the sen, looking in the distance like a chain of billowy moun tains. “The tide—or may be It’s a current—Is running fast,’’ said the boatswain, a few minutes later. “I wonder whether we are in soundings! I will heave the lead, and If we are, we must make ready to let go.’’ He had evidently not seen the inscrip tion on the white rock; and it was quite as well. He would have been able to think of nothing else. “By all means,’’ I answered. “It would never do to run aground, and there is not much chance of getting a pilot, I fear.” I W hereupon Tom took the lead, and went into the chains. When he came back he reported that the depth was nine fathoms, the bottom sandy, and the water rapidly shoaling. He thought that, to be on the safe side, we should let go at once, though | we were still three or four miles from the ; nearest part of the coast. I To this I of course agreed, for in matters of seamanship I always deferred to Bolso ver’s opinion; and five minutes afterward I the “Diana” was riding at anchor, her stern toward the land, her stem toward the rocks. i “How about going ashore!” I asked, “Can we lowers boat!” I “I think so; and if it comes to that, we must. Bat wait a bit; there's no hurry. May be some on ’em—natives cr what not —will bo coming off to us.” “All right. I’ll run below, put on a clean shirt, and make myself presentable.” “As you like. sir. But as for me, I shall take no such trouble. I oliall do well enough as I am. I don’t suppose the peo ple of this country are of much account niggers or greasers, or summat o' that sort. They don’t wear no clothes—not they; and they are sure to speak some con founded outlandish lingo that nobody un derstands but themselves.” Though we had survived the dangers of a most perilous voyage, escaped death as hr a miracle, and brought the “Diana” to • Mb anchorage, poor old Tom was art* dently In an unhappy frame of mind. It was easy to guess the reason. We had seen nothing of the treasure-ship, nor any sign of her, and for several reasons I did not think the time had yet come to make mention of the writing on the rock. Whon I returned to the deck, feeling all the better for a good wash and fresh rig* out, Tom was peering hard through his glass. “There’s a boat putting off,” he said; “a biggish boat with a lateen sail, and a crow of six or eight men—custom-house chaps, of course; for you may be cock-sure of one thing; If a country hasn’t ns much tradeaa would keep a colony of fleas, It Is sure to have custom-houses—for, you see, if cus tom-houses Isn’t trade, they looks like It.” I took a glass aud had a look on my own account. The boat was nnder way, and evidently making for the “Dlamu” but owing to the lightness of the breeze and the flowing tide, the lateen sail did not seem to be of much use, and the crow were taking to their oars, which they appeared to handle with great dexterity. But I gave less heed to the boat and her management than to the people she carried. I burned with cariosity to know where we were and what kind of people we had fallen among; and I thought that I might possibly gather some idea of their characters, perhaps even of their nationality, from the personal ap pearance of the boat’s occupants. At any rate, they wore clothod; so far, so good. Houses, roads, boats, garments —nil these were unmistakable signs of civ ilization. juiaeKS, ny-v Bung oui Tom, wuo, albeit older than I, lmd not dimmed his Bight by bending over a desk. “Nonsense! They are dark, perhaps; bnt certainly not black; and those two men in the stern are certainly white.” “It looks so: but we cannot surely have got to the West Indies, nor yet to tho Bra ids. And yon are wrong; they are not white, and tho others are not black.” “What on earth nre they, then?” “They are— By the Lord Hnrry! they are spotted—every man-jack of ’em. Thoso chaps in the stern ure white and red; and them as is rowing red and black.” And Tom dropped his gloss and gave me a look so comically expressive of foar, be wilderment, and surprise, that I laughed outrighf. "What can they ba?” I asked; tor though my vision was les3 keen than his, I could see that the people in the boat had very queer complexions. “Cannibals—savagos in their war-paint! Nothing else—And they’ll eat us, too, it they get a chance. But I’m not going to be eaten if I can help it, Mr. Erie. We’ll sell our lives dearly—wo will that. There’s arms in the captain’s cabin. Let us load them at once. And those old carronades” (two brass pieces we had for firing signals), “we’ll load them, too. I know whero the cartridges are.” “But we have no ball.” "Nevermind; we’ll charge them with old nails and bits of iron.” “Very well; (to so then. We may as well be prepared. But, for my part, I cannot say that I have any greut fear of these painted people. At any rate, it is better to speak them fair before we show fight.” “Speak ’em fair! What’s the use of speaking fair—or foul either, for that mat ter—to a lot of savage devils as can’t un derstand a word you say? As soon as they get within shooting distance they’ll let fly a harrow at your head—unless you are be forehand witli ’em. 1’ ve been among such like in the Pacific, and I know. However, you stop hero and watch ’em, Mr. Erie, ant? I’ll get the arms ready.” TO BE CONTINUED. The Dog Was Astonished. A singular electric-wire accident was seen the other day in Boston. The attention of passers-by was attracted by tho barking of a red Irish setter to an English sparrow, which was perched upon an electric-light wire high above the beast's head. The animat had evi dently been amusing himself in the fruitless sport of chasing tho bird, anil when it had taken refuge on high had endeavorei to got some consolation out of yelping lustily. The day was windy and the wire swayed to and fro, the sparrow apparently, enjoying its swing until in a fatal moment the tail of tho bird came in contact with anoth er wire near by. Then, in tins twink ling of an eye. the unlucky sparrow came tumbling down stone dcuu at tho feet of'ho noisy dog, who was so as tonished at this sudden turn of affairs tiiat he didn't offer to pick the crea ture up, but simply slopped barking nnd stood staring at his prey in astou Lbment Brawny Bob’s Personal Appeal.

When old earth gave her first palpitaut throes that night all of Bob's friend and co laborers in ante-bellum style hurried from their cabius to the “house.” They found Bob already there, kneeling in the yard. The planter, standing on the steps, cndeavoied to calm the ex citement of the dusky, wailing group, and to allay their fears by assuring them that it was only an earthquake and not the doom's-day they seem al ways to wait fearfully for. Following Mr. M-'s clear tones rang out Bob's deep resonant ones: “O, Lord! listen to me.’ O. Lord, an’ don’ pay all yor tention ter tho earthquake. Listen, 9, Lord! this is Bob er praying ter you.

Dr. Ln bouchere, the physician of the Five Points mission, this morning reported to the board of health a suspicious case of probable cholera in Sullivan street, i The board has sent an Inspector to In i vestigate. ,Dr. liryant, who is attend ing Mary Conerty, who was taken to the reception hospital yesterday suffer ing from cholera, reports this morning that there is a good chance of the woman's recovery. The death of Char lotte Keck, which occurred on the 13th inst., was to-day ollicially declared to | bo due to Asiatic cholera. The storm-buffeted passengers of the ! Normanniu had another experience and another delay. Embarking for their return to the city by boat, they ran aground off Fire Island—not in danger but harassed again by detention when almost on the threshold of home. The tide was out and they had to await the flood for release from the sand bar. About 100 passengers of the Normannia refused to go on the Cepheus, prefer ring to cross over to llabylon and take a train for the city. They left Fire Island on board the boat Hippie atl):ir> o'clock for Babylon under military es cort, and there took a train on the Long Island railroad for New York. A big scare was caused among the employes of tho Acme Manufacturing company on Wythe avenue and North Ninth street, Williamsburg, tllis morn ing when two Russians employed in tho factory were stricken with vomit ing and diarrhea. An ambulance was summoned and the men removed to the hospital. The doctors pronounced , both cases cholera morbus. Many of | the employes of the factory quit work and refused to return. CHOLERA IN WASHINGTON. Two Cnauthentlcated Cases Reported, but They Do Not Cause a Scare. Washington, Sept. 19.—Two cases of cholera were reported in Washington but no really authentic information could be obtained as to their wherea | bouts. Surgeon General Wyman said he did not believe there was any cholera here. “Every case that looks like cholera \$ill be called cholera,” he added. “I expected to hear reports of that kind from all parts of the country, but until the health authorities pro nounce cholera to exist don’t take any stock in the reports.” There is fear that the cholera scare will deter a great many from coming to the encampment, but there is not yet any reason why anybody should not come. The city is pronounced .in a most healthy condition, and if it be deter mined that the tents and barracks should not be used other quarters will be obtained. There exists a belief that Chicago will be selected for the encampment next year. Over twelve Chicago posts have declared that they do not want it and that they favor In dianapolis, but it is thought the en campment may be thrust upon Chicago. If not, then Indianapolis will be se lected, it is thought. REGARDING AN EPIDEMIC. Surgeon-General Wyman Give* Hla Views on the Cholera Question. Washington, Sept. 19.—“I have no fears of an epidemic of cholera in this country,” said Surgeon-General Wy man yesterday. “We may expect to hear of alleged cases springing up here and there in all parts of tho country. Now that cholera has at last made its entrance into New York city, cases of cholera morbus, dysentery, colic and kindred ailments will all be magnified into cholera cases. “People should be prepared for these idle rumors and not get alarmed. 1 have perfect confidence in our ability to hold the disease in check.” _(_ Austria Is Free. Vienna, Sept. 19.—The supreme san itary council announces that Austria is still free from cholera and that sus pected cases have been proved by bacteriological examination to be with out a trace of the disease. Mexico Is Alarmed. City op Mexico, Sept. 19.—Dispatches received here announcing the appear ance of cholera in New York city created a profound sensation on all sides. The government has asked for details of the matter and if the story is confirmed it will declare the strictest quarantine against all arrivals from the United States. An Ominous Prediction. Detroit, Mich., Sept. 19.—Cholera is due in Detroit in two weeks according to Dr. J. J. Mulheron, United States inspector. “It is almost inevitable,” the doctor declared. “It can hardly be avoided. The whole country is in for a struggle with the disease. It is my earnest belief.” New Cuos st Havre. Havre, Sept. 19.—The number of new cases of cholera in this city yes terday was fifteen, two more than were reported Wednesday. The deaths yesterday numbered three, four less than the day before. ■aspect In Philadelphia Philadelphia, Pa., Sept, 9 -The tenement house 432 Lombai.. street was quarantined from early morning until noon because of a suspected case of cholera. Mrs. Cande Jacobs, "the | wife of a tailor who recently returned from Europe cm the steamer British Princess, was the victim. J)rs. Anpey of the board of health and Welch oi the municipal hospital were in con stant attendance and at noon they de cided that it was a clear case of cholera morbus. The quarantine was then raised. Kansas City a Fertile Field for Cholera. Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 10.—-A committee appointed by the Jackson County Medical society to Inquire into the sanitary condition of Kansas City with a view to ascertaining what should be done to prevent an attack by cholera, have found that the city is foul, that the conditions prevail in abundance favorable to the spread of cholera and that absolutely no means exist for the prevention or control of the disease. The committee has so re ported to the society, which body this evening presented a petition to the city council recommending that in spectors be appointed and every pre caution be taken to prevent the disease gaining a foothold here. Will Guard Indiana. Indianapolis, Sept. 0 —The State Board of Health la in session hero to consider the cholera situation. It is proposed that the board order a quar antine of all sick passengers on trains coming into the city and provide a place of detention for them. The local board of health has a corps of physicians inspecting passengers on the trains as they arrive. Precautions In the South. Bhunswick, On., Sept. 10.—Begin ning yesterday all vessels coming from north of Hatteras will be stopped for inspection at quarantine. If there is any sickness on board the patients will be sent to Supolo Island. Tim Disease In Holland.

An Improved Tone, wltli Hetter Mtntus In View. Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 10.—An im proved tone and some anticipatory notes of a better status is the report from most of the iron and steel trade centers of the country this week. Most statements about the market are qualified, however, in view of the tran sitional state in which nearly all branches of the trade have been since the mill resumption, and it has been difficult to sift temporary conditions from those likely to be more .perma nent. The total tire sales of the week have been in the neighborhood of 30,000 tons, on a basis of 35 cents below last season’s prices. The complement of pending negotiations for the sale of Mesaba ores has been of interest to the trade, and there is no longer doubt anywhere as to the appearance of the new range all an important.factor in the market the coming winter. 'The status of hard ores, of which consider able stocks are to be brought down this month and next, is not materially changed. . Mrs. Harrison Worse. Washington, Sept. 19.—Secretary Poster has just received a dispatch from Loon Lake, saying that Mrs. Harrison’s condition has changed for the worse. The news has cast a gloom over official and social circles, and put a damper on the enthusiasm of the Grand Army veterans, who are already crowding into Washington. The President and h(s family were very apprehensive of serious results from the operation to-day, and were highly gratified with ‘the statement of the physicians when the opera tion was concluded. J. R. McKee arrived at Loon Lake at noon to-day. He came through froth Boston and was furnished with a special engine and car from Malone. Mrs. McKee and her children met him at Loon Lake station. Tlie Choice of a. A. R. Han. Washington, Sept. 19.—The de partment of the Potomac of the Grand Army of the Republic has unanimous ly decided to present the name of Oapt. J. M. Pipes, Past Department Commander, to the National encamp ment for the office of Senior Vice Commander in Chief and that of D. A. Grosvenor for member of the Council of Administration. Capt. Pipes’ selec tion is almost equivalent to his elec tion, as courtesy gives the office to the department in which the encampment is held. Bteonml From ths Wrack. Makshautow.v, Iowa, Sept. 19.— The last of the- four bodies buried under the ruins of yester day's collision on the Chicago & Northwestern railroad, was recovered this morning.
