"I am. I am Curolliio Fltz Hugh. " "VoHxIiallnotiUo." When Colonul Maynard ripoko tliono wottln, thero wan a grauduur in IiIh tone, hih figure, tho liueH of his countenance tho Ulit in liin eye, Htrimgoly lncoiiitnt nt with a resolution he. Intel Hindu tliu moment licforo they wero uttered. Ho had on the instant reversed Ills decision mado not ten minutes boforo to do his . duty, in tho ordinary acceptance of ' what that duty was. Ho had determined to wvu tho woman before him, oven if ' it woro necessary to tako upon himself far greater Ignominy than tho deatli to which r-ho was sentenced. Tlioro was hi lcnco hetwetui tlioin, during which Miss Fitz Hugh otood loukiug at him in ad miration, mingled witli inquiry. Shu know that boiiio secret charm was at v.")rk within, butxhudid not know wliat It was. "How can my death ho prevented?" "I urn charged with your execution. I will tako you to your linos niysulf this night." What was that subtlo influence, far stronger than battalions of infantry or batteries of mti.lnry, which gavo it to ono not present, unconscious of his pow er, to hold Marl: Mayuard over a piucl jtlci and to cast him into a black gulf below? Was it circumstances that had a year hefoiu led Fitz Hugh to accept tho vory part Maynard was now called upon to play? Was it lovo that had given Maynard tho lirido Fitz Hugh was to have possessed? Was it Homo invisi ble fiend that had made Maynard n rob bet of that Initio from tho man to whom ho twico owed his lifo and was now bringing on his punishment? Theso woro indirect causes, but thoy cannot explain that inexpressible, intangible Lonso of honor which will lead a man, to spoak paradoxically, to commit a orlmo ami sacrifice himsolf at tho sumo time for another. Tho expression on Miss Fitz Hugh's faeo as she heard Maynard speak words which would save her from death and give her liberty underwent a change. For a moment after they wero spoken thoro was n dolightod look, but us slio realized what thoy meant to tho man who would savo her it was transformed into an expression which can only bo dcBcriliod as bordering on tho confines of angel land. There was a holy look in her oyes, n radiance of parity from tho soul expressed in every feature Thoro was tho superhuman attribute of ohooslng death before lifo and liberty ut tho prico of wrong. "No, colonel, wo Fitz Hughs cannot aoccpt oacriflco, nnd especially wrong, from others. Wo givoj wo aro not ac customed to receive." Maynard stood gazing at her witli a look as if in refusing tho sacriflco she had stabbed him. "Whot then," ho said ut last, "can I do?" "Sond tho Hows of my condition, of my expected" slio shuddered at pro nouncing tho word "execution to our lines. Knowing that 1 am condemned, thoy can bring what iuflueiico they may bo ablo to save mo." "It will avail nothing." "Try it. Fate, luck.Providonco works Btraugoly nt times. Let us push on and leavo tho rest to a higher power." Tho colonel looked at Ids watch. "It is now half past . Wo aro but a few miles from tho Confederate lines. Your brother is" "In 's cavalry division and on tho Confodcrato right. I heard from him only it fow days ago. Ho was then atltingold." "That is not far from hero. " "Thero may bo time," she said hopo fully. "Somo ono must steal through tho lines. If not shot, ho may accomplish bomothiug. In half an hour I shall bo' "You?" "Yes, II I will not trust this only thread ou which your lifo haugs to any ono olso, though 1 confess," ho addod gloomily, "I havo no confidence in it." "No, colonel, I cannot accopt this from you. You are tho commander hero and aro all that stands botweou mo and death. You must romaiu hero and send a niossonger." . "Who would I dare intrust with such a message?" "Send for tho man who captured me, Corporal Ratigan. Lot him bear tho message," "Ho?" Tho colonel looked at hor a moment, as if to question why this man should bo bo trusted, but hor eyes woro lowor d. Ho know there wa3 n secret which it did not becomo him to pry into. "I will send him, if ho can bo found at once. If not, I will go mysolf. And if tho mission fails" Tho words woro not finished, for ho well know how precious timo was, nud turning from tho room nnd tho houso strode rapidly toward his tent. Ho had gouo but a dozen paces boforo Lo heard somo ono calL "Colouoll" Ho did not hoar. Tho call was re peated. "Colonel !" A man npproachod him, whom irj tho darkness ho did not recognize. "Is thero uo-hopo, colouol?" tho man asked in n choked voico. "Who nro you?" "Tho mnu who captured her," point ing to tho houso. "Oi'll nover draw sa hor again.'! I "Cprporal Ratigan?" f Br AMERICAN Af H "Mno same. " "This is fortunate. Como with mo. " Tho two started together to n thicket wherein thoy would neither bo observed nor heard. "Ol'm hangin round, yo seo, colonel. Oi'm away from camp without leave. Oi hopo they'll shoot mo font deserter." Colonel Maynard did not speak till thoy reached tho thicket. Then, turn ing and facing Ratigan, ho said ear nestly: "You would like to save her, would you not';" "God knows I would." "Thou go to tho picket lino nud got through unobserved If possible. Go to Ringold and find a Confederate officer Cameron Fitz Hugh, if ho is thero. Tell him that his sister iscondomued to bo shot nt sunrise tomorrow morning. Bay that Colouol Mark Maynard sends him tliis information, that ho may uso whatever influonco ho possesses tako any measures ho may consider honor ableto savo her. Toll him," tho colo nel lowered his voico, "that I offered to attempt to do so, taking ruin upon myself, but slio would not accopt tho sacriflco. Go; there is no timo to loso. When tho sun rises, it will bo too late. " "Oh, colonel," cried tho man in agony, "thero is so littlo timo!" "Got It is not yet 10 o'clock. Wo havo six hours." Tho corporal was moving away when tho colonel stopped him. "You will need tho countersign." Ratigan returned, and tho colonel whispered it in his ear, "Carnifax Ferry." CHAPTER XVII. uatkian'h mission. Tho extreme left of tho Army of tho Cumberland, from which Corporal Rat igan started to go through tho lines, was hold only by cavalry and mounted infantry, nud theso widely separated Thero was no regular picket lino sucn ns usually exists between armies con fronting each other where tho different branches of tho servico nro represented in ouo continuous line. Consequently tho corporal had a far hotter chance to got through than under ordinary cir cumstances. Passing over tho Pea Vino ridge, ho descended tho other side sloping to a small stream called Pea Vino creek. It was essential that ho slip through bo tweou tho Union vedottes unseen, for if obsorved ho would bo taken for a de serter and either shot or sent in to tho headquarters of his regiment Tho ve dettes wero principally ou tho roads, nud tho corporal, boliovlng that they would bo looking for an enemy ou routes ovor which cavalry could best advance, solcctcd ono least advantageous for a horso to follow. Wherever ho could find a thick clump of trees or low growth, n knoll, a ravino, indood any thing difficult for a horso to pass, ho would go over or through it Now ho would stop. to listen for somo sound such as n horso is liable to mako, nnd now would steal on his hands and knoes or crawl on his holly ovor somo eminence whoro, if ho should stand upright, his body would mako a silhouotto against tho sky. Ou crossing a bit of lovel ground ho suddenly heard a horso's "splutter." Ho was near a clump of bushes in which ho lost no timo in con cealing himself. A cavalryman rodo by within 00 feet of him, walking his horso slowly, tho butt of his carbino resting on his right leg, and in a posi tion to bo usod readily. Ho was patrol ling a beat. Ratigan waited till ho had gono past, then darted onward to trees which, from thoir irregular lino, ho judged grow besldo tho creek. Ho was not disappointed nud was soon standing in shallow water, resting for a fow minutes under n low bank. Onco past tho crock ho felt that ono half his danger was ended. Ho had doubtless got boyoud tho rango of his own comrades, and now came a groat danger of mooting tho Confedorato pickets. Leaving tho crook, ho ascended a Blight ominouco and mado a survoy of tho surrounding country. All was si lent, except that ho could hear nn occa sional Bound Hko a distant burst of laughter, or n shout from tho direction of RiiiRold, in his front Presently ho hoard tho unmistakable rumblo of a train coming from tho south. "It will pu68 right down there bo hind that clump of trees nnd go through tho out," snid tho corporal. "01 wouder wouldn't it bo a good plan to tako ad vantage of its noiso when it passes to Blip through tho outposts. They'll bo thinkin of tho traiu, nud Oi can follow in its wako." Ho advanced cautiously to tho treos besido tho track nnd waited for tho train. Presently tho headlight of n loco motivo shot out from around n enrvo. Tho corporal had forgotten that its light would reveal him to tho engineer. Ho crouched down out of sight with a high boating heart, nud uono too soon, for had ho staid whoro ho was tho light would havo shouo dircotly on him. Ho waited whilo tho cngluo puffed slowly by. It was drawing a long train of mix ed passougor, cattlo and platform cars, every car crowdod with troops. "Thoy 're proparln to glvo us a brush iu earnest Like enough theso are ro-eu-forcomonts," muttered tho corporal. Ratigau dotorminod to follow tho rail road north to Ringold, which ho judged to bo only a milo distant Tho train loadod with Coufcdorato troops having just passed, tho guards ho might moot would probablyjjot bo very suspicious of an enemy. Ho walked on tho track for a short distance, expecting a ohal lengo with every step. Ho received ono suddonly, just boforo entering n wood. A man on horsoback nimed a carbino at him nud gavo tho customary: "Who comes thar?" Ratigan at onco throw up his hands, which his challenger could distinctly see, and cried out, "I want yo to tako mo to Colouol Fitz Hugh." "What do you want with him?" "Do yo know him?" "Ho commands n regiment iu our bri gade " Seeing that tho corporal hold his handy above his head, tho man permitted him to draw near. Onco here, Ratigau informed him of tho nature of his mis sion and begged him for Colonel Fitz Hugh's sako to sond him to Ringold nt onco. Tho vedetto wns convinced from Ratigan's earnestness that ho boro n messago of importance, and calling his comrades ordered ono of them to dis mount. Then, taking tho precaution to blindfold tho stranger, ho mounted him, nnd placing n horseman on either side of him scut tho thrco clattering toward Ringold. It was not a long distance to tho town, but all distances, all periods of waiting, seemud long to tho corporal. Wns not tho torriblo oventto tako placo at sunrise? And now it must bo near midnight "What is tho timo?" ho nsked of hia conductors. "Twenty minutes to 11." "Let's go fastor. Colouol Fitz Hugh would bo ns anxious for mo to get on as Oi urn nieself if ho knew mo errand." "All right. Let's light out, Pete." And Ratigan felt tho motion of a gallop iu tho horso ho rode. And now came a "Halt" from a guard nud an answer, followed by "Advnnco nnd glvo tho countersign." Ono of tho men goes for ward for tho purpose. Then tho party goes on again, but what thoy pass or where they nro going Ratigau knows nothing about. Ho only knows that they aro moving, nud that they aro not moving fast enough to suit him. Pres ently thoy stop, and tho corporal can hear one of tho men dismount. Thero is TEARING UP TIIE FLOORING. a Stroke Of a clock tiviilniitlv frniii n church spire. Ho counted, "Ono, two. three," nud on to eleven. "Dismount." Ho lost no timo in throwing himself from his horso nnd was led forward. Tho air became warmer. Ho must bo in nn inclosure Tho baudago was taken from his eyes. He was standing in n tent lighted by a caudle fixed to tho end of a stako driven into th ground. Tliero was but ono other person present, a Confodcrato officer. Ho was a tall, slender young man, with long black hair, a mustacho nnd goateo, nnd an eyo honest, respect Inspiring, and with all tho gentleness of a woman's. "Aro yo Colonel Fitz nngh?" asked tho corporal, making a saluto as if iu presonco of an offlcor of his own side. "Iom." "Oi havo a messago from yor sister. " Colouol Fitz Hugh turned ashy pale No ono could como to him from hor without striking terror into him, for ho know tho work in which sho was engag ed. For months ho had lived in dread of her capture. If tho mossongor had been a citlzon or a Confodcrato soldlor, it might not spoak so clearly of danger, but comiug from a Yankco trooper quick reasoning told him that sho had doubtloss mot with disaster. "Indeed," was all his reply to tho corporal's announcement "Oi'm sorry to inform yo, sir," said tho corporal in a voico which ho vainly endeavored to keep steady, "that Miss Fitz flugh, passin under tho nomo of EHzaboth linggs" Fitz Hugh put his hand on Ratigan's arm and stopped him, whilo ho gathered IiIb faculties to boar what ho know was coming. " Wos pursued by a contomptiblo our of a Yankee, who deserves to bo haugod for chasiu a woman" "Yes, yes. Go on." "Was captured and" "O God!" "Condomued to bo Bhot for a spy to morrow mornin at sunrise" Fitz Hugh sank baok on a camp cot nnd covered his fnco with hi9 hands. For a fow moments tho corporal re spected his grlof by sllouco, but timo was precious, and ho soou continued. "Thinkin yo might oxorciso somo influenco to save her, Ol'vo como to in form yo of tho distressln fact" Tho last two words wero spoken in n broken voico. "By whoso authority?" Fitz Hugh roso nud stood boforo tho corporal. Ho had nerved himsolf for whatever was to follow. "Colonel Mark Moynard, command- ing tho th cavalry brigade " "Do yon mean to toll mo," said Fitz Hugh, with a singular, impress! vo Blow ness, "that my sister is at tho mercy of Mark Maynard?" "Ho is charged with her oxecutlon." Colonel Fitz Hugh shuddered. "That man Is my Nemesis," ho cried inn voico filled with a kind of dospnlr. " 'Tis ho that sent mo to yo. " "He?" "Tho same" "Docs ho wish to savo my sistor?" "Ho does." "Why, then, does ho not do so?" "Ho can only savo her by his own disgrace Yer sister will not nccept tho sacrifice" l'A true Fltz Hugh, "said tho brothor proudly. "Then Miss Fitz Hugh suggested that ho might send mo to inform yo of tho situation, that yo might hov opportu nity to uso any influence yo would con sider wise and honorablo to secure n re prieve " Fitz Hugh thought earnestly with his head bowed, his eyes fixed on a spot on tho ground. "There Is nothing that I cau do," ho laid at last. "Threatened retaliation is tho only recourse, and that could not he effected tin ler tho circumstauceB with out implicating Colonel Maynard." "Then yo seo no way open?" nskod tho corporal dtspondently. "It is inipossiblo for mo to net Intel ligently alone. If I could see Colonel Maynard, pcrhap9 together wo might hit upon n plan." "Would yo meet him between tho linos?" "Tliero is not sufficient time" "There's five or six hours." Fitz Hugh stood pondering for n few moments without reply. Then, suddenly starting up, he said: "Go tell Colonel Maynnrdthat I will moot him as you suggest. Let tho point of rendezvous bo let mo see whore do you consider a feasiblo point? You hava just como through." "01 would namo tho bank of tho creek nt n point duo west of this." "How long u timo will bo required boforo tho meeting cau tako place? It U now a littlo after 11." "It may bo an hour; it may bo Ion ger. If yo will bo thoro, colouol, nt 13 o'clock, wo'll meet yo ua Boon nfter as possible' "You will find mo thoro at 12. " "It would bo well, colouol, to con cert a signal by which each should know tho other. " "Suggest one. " "Oi'll doubtless bo with Colonel May nard. Oi'll cry Oirolaud, and yo can respond" "To tho rescue " Colonel Fitz Hugh called to those waiting outside, who had brought iu Lorporal Uatigan and directed thorn to blindfold him nnd tako him to tho Federal lines, and, if possible, insure his getting through without injury. They were to report tho result to him in any event Ratigan know nothing but tho gallop of tho horso ou which ho sat, with n handkerchief about his eyes, until the party conducting him drew rein nud lie was directed to dismount Then ho was asked If ho would bo escorted to a Union vedetto known to bo ou a road leading around tho north end of the ridgo oi' whether ho would go alone "Oi'll go alone," ho Bald. "If yo go with me, they'll think it a midnight at tack." Starting forward, tho corporal trudg ed over a short distuueo botwoou hi in and tho vodette As ho drew uoar ha began to 6lug a fow lines from a play popular at tho time. Thlm'a tho boys What makes a noise, Is tho It'yal nrtlllerio. "Who comes thero?" criod the vo dctto, cocking his pioco as Rutigau camo in sight "Friend with tho countersign, to bo Burol Who d'yo supposo?" "Advance friend, and givo tho coun tersign, ' ' called the man. Ho was a good deal puzzled at hearing tho Irish broguo coming from that direction, but it reas sured him. Ho did not havo much fear or an enemy unless it were a trap to got him nt n disadvantage. Ratigau drew near and whispered, "Carnifax Uorry." "What aro you doing out thoro?" quorlcd tho man. "Lookin out for trniiiB bringlu in troops. Ono oamo iu half an hour ngo joauou. " "Youdon'.tmonu itl Guess they're gomng m ro-onforcomonts. " "I beliovo ye, mo boy." Ratigan walked on toward tho camp till ho got out of sight of tho vodette. Then ho rau till ho dropped breathless in colouol JUaynard'B tout, CHAPTER XVIII. A STHANOE MEETING. Ratigan wns so exhausted as to bo only ablo to glvo Maynard a fow do tached sentences, conveying Fomo idea ns to what ho had accomplished. Thero was littlo that it was essential should bo told except that Colonel Fit. Hugh would meet liim between tho lines as soon ns ho could get there Casting n glnnco nt his watch, Maynard noticed that it was !20 minutes to IS. Tliu dis tance to tho point of rendezvous as near as they could estimate it, was two miles. Every minute was precious. It would ho midnight before they could meet, and then they would only havo about six hours iu which to tako measures to se cure a reprieve. They could only do so by communicating with general head quarters, some 10 miles away. In any event tho euro was desperate However, Maynard had been used iu his scouting days to snddii transitions nnd had him self escaped from prison on tho very night before his intended execution. Calling his striker, ho bado him saddio Madgo, who, ho know, could carry him over tho ground nt no laggard pace, and, ordering a mount for the corporal at tho sauio time, tho two waited impatiently till both imimals were led up before the tent. Mounting, they began to climb tht Pea Vino ridge. Ratigan. who had beer over tho ground, led tho way. They reached tho top of tho ridge, and the corporal pointed out tho position on the creek, duo west of Ringold, where they were to meet Colonel Fitz Hugh. De scending tho slope, they camo upon a Union vedetto and wero challenged with tho usual words "Who comes there?" "Tho colonel commanding, with an orderly, inspecting vedettes" They were advanced, gavo tho coun tersign and passed on. Taking a route between two roads and meeting no mom guards they cautiously approached tho placo of rendezvous. Ou reaching tho bank of tho creek they descended it, tho corporal riding ahead and peering through the darkness to discover what they wero looking for. Presently tho dark figure of n horseman emerged from n clump of trees on tho opposite bank nnd rodo forward toward tho creek. Ratigan saw him, and, believ ing him to bo some ouo iu ntteudauco upon Colonel Fitz Hugh, called: "Oireland." "To tho rescue," called tho man in a low voice, and rodo up to the margin of tho creek.
