THE FAIR GOD.

CHAPTER VIII. ( Continued. )
Farther on they came to a platform on which a band of mountebanks was perform- ing. Hualpa would have stayed to witness their tableaux, but Xoli was impatient.
‘‘You see yon barber’s shop,” he said; ‘“next to it is the portice we seek. Come | on!”
At last they arrived there, and mixed with the crowd, curious like themselves.
‘* Ah, boy, you are too late! The list is full.”
The Chalcan spoke regretfully.
Hualpa looked for himself. On a clear white wall, that fairly glistened with the flood of light pouring on it, he counted eight shields, or gages of battle. Over the four to the left were picture-written, ‘‘ Othmies,” ‘‘Tlascalans.” They belonged to the chal-
went softly out. Long rays, like radiant spears, shot up and athwart the sky. As the indications multiplied, his hopes arose. Farther back he threw the hod from his brow; the sun seemed coming clear and cloud- less above the mountains, kindling his heart no less than the air and earth.
A wide territory, wrapped in the dim light, extended beneath his teet. There slept Ten- ochtitlan, with her shining temples and blaz- ing towers, her streets and resistless national- ity; there were the four lakes, with their blue waters, their shores set with cities, villages and gardens; beyond them lay eastern Ana- huac, the princeliest jewel of the Empire. What with its harvests, orchards, and its homesteads, its forests of oak, sycamore and cedar, its population, busy. happy and faith- ful, contented as tillers of the soil, and brave as lions in time of need, it was all of Aden he had ever known or dreamed.
In the south-east, above along range of muatains, rose the volcanic peaks poetized by t»e Aztecs into the *‘ White Woman” and the “‘Smoking Hill.” Mythology had covered them with sanctifying faith, as, in a different age and more classic clime, it clothed the serene mountain of Thessaly.
But the king saw little of all this beauty ;
lengers, and were battered and stained, piov- ing that their gathering had been in no field of peace. The four to the right were of the Aztecs, and all bore devices except one. A sentinel stood silently beneath them.
‘* Welcome, Cihalcan !” said a citizen, salut- ing the broker, ‘* You are in good time to tell us the owners of the shields here.”
** Of the Aztecs ?”
ee
| * Well,” said Xoli, slowly and gravely.
|“ The shields 1 do not know are few and of
ilittle note. At one time or another I have
‘seen them all pass my porico going to battle.” A bystander, listening, whispering to his
i friends :
| <The braggart !Hesays nothing of the
|times the owners passed his door to get a
| pinch of his snuff.”
| “ Or to get drank on his abominable pul-
i que,” said another.
‘* Or to get a loan, leaving the palaces in pawn,” said a third party.
But Xoli went on impressively :
‘“ Those two to the left belong to suriy 'Otompan and a girl-faceed Cholulan. They had a quarrel in the king's garden, and this is the upshot. That other—surely, O citi- zens you know the shield of Ixtil’ the ‘Tezeu- can ?”
‘* Yes ; but its neighbour ?”
‘* The plain shield ! Its owner has a name to win. I can find youenough such here in the market toequip an army. Say, soldier, whose gage is that ?”
The sentinel shook his head. “A page came not long ago, and asked me to hang it up by the side of the Tezcucan’s. He said not whom he served.”
‘Well, maybe you know the challengers ”
‘‘ Two of the shields belong to a father and son of the tribe of Othmies. In the last battle the son alone slew eight Cempoallan warriors for us. Tlascalans, whose name I do not know, own the others.”
‘Do you think they will escape?” asked a citizen.
The sentinel smiled grimly, and said, ‘‘ Not if it be true that yon plain shield belongs to Guatame, the ’tyin,”’
Directly a patrol, radely thrusting the citizens aside, came to relieve the guard. In the confusion, the Chalcan whispered to his friend, ‘* Let us go back. There is no chance for you in the arena to-morrow ; and this new fellow is sullen; his tongue would not wag though I promised him drink from the king's vase.”
Soon after they reached the Chalcan’s portico and disppeared,in the building, the ery of the night-watchers arose from the tem- ples, and the market was closed. The great crowd vanished; in stall and portico the lights were extinguished ; but at once another scene equally tumultuous usurped the fianguez. Thousands of half-naked tamanes rushed into
he observed nothing but the sun, which was rising a few degrees north of ** The Smoking | Hill.” In all the heavens round there was not a fleck; and already his heart throbbed with delight, when suddenly a cloud of smoke rushed upward from the mountain, and com- menced gathering darkly about its white sum- mit. Quick to behold it, he scarcely hushed acry of fear, and instinctively waved his hand, asif by a kingly gesture, to stay the eruption. Slowly the vapor crept over the roseate sky, and, breathless and motionless, the seeker of the god’s mood and questioner of the Morning watched its progress. Across the pathway of the sun it stretched, so that when the disk wheeled fairly above the moun- tain-range. it looked like a ball of blood,
The king was a reader of picture-writing, dnd skilful in deducing the meaning of men trom cipher and hierogiyph. Straightway he interpreted the phenomenon asa direful por- tent; and because he came looking for omens, the idea that this was a message sent him ex- pressly from the gods was but a right royal vanity. He drew the hood over his face again, and dropped his head disconsolately upon his breast. His mind filled with a hoat of gloomy thoughts. The revelation of Mu- alox was prophecy here confirmed —Quetzal’ was coming! Throne, power, people, all the glories of his country and Empire, he saw snatched from his nerveless grasp, and float- away, like the dust of the valley.
After awhile he rose to depart. One more look he gave the sun before descending from the roof, and shuddered at the sight of city, lake, valley, tiegcloud itself and the sky
** Behold !” he said tremulously to Maxtla, “to-day we will sactifice to Quetzal’; how long until Quetzal’ sacrifices to himself?”
The chief cast down his eyes; for he knew how dangerous it was to look on royalty humbled by fear. Then Montezuma shaded his face again, and left the proud old hill with a sigh for its palaces and the beauty of its great cypress groves.

the deserted place, and all night long it re- sounded, like a Babel, with clamour of tongues and notes of mighty preparation.
CHAPTER IX. THE QUESTIONER OF THE MORNING,
When Montezuma departed from the old Cu for his palace, it was not to sleep or rest. The revelation that so disturbed him, that held him worldless or the street, and made him shrink from his people, wild with the promise of pomp and combat, would not be shut out by gates and guards; it clung to his memory, and with him stood by the fountain, walked in the garden, and tail down on his
get ready his canoe: from Chapultep palace and tomb of his fathers, he Would s the sun rise.
From one of the westerly canals they pu out. ‘Phe lake was still rocking the wight on | its bosom, and no light other hav | of the stars shone in the = east [he gurgling sound of waters parted by the rushing vessel, ahd the regular dip of the paddies, were all that disturbed the brooding of majesty abroad thus early on Tezcuco.
The canoe struck the white pebbles that strewed the landing at the princely property just as dawn was dappling the sky. On the highest point of the hill was a tower from which the kings were accustomed to observe the stars. Thither Montezuma went. Maxt- la, who alone dared follow, spread a mat for him on the tiles; kneeling upon it, and told- ing his hands worshipfully upon his breast, he looked to the east.
And the king was learned; indeed, one more so was not in all his realm. In his stu- dent days, and in his priesthood, before he was taken from sweeping the temple to be arch-ruler, he had gained astrological craft, and yet practised it from habit. The hea- vens, with their blazonry, were to him as pic- tured parchments. He loved the stars for their sublime mystery, and had faith in them as oracles. He consulted them always; bis armies marched at their bidding ; and they and the gods controlled every movement of his civil policy. But as he had never before been moved by so great a trouble, and as the knowledye he now sought directly concerned his throne and nations, he came to consult and question the Morning, that intelligence higher and purer than the stars. If Quetzal was angered, and would that day land for vengeance, he naturally supposed the Sun, his dwelling-place, would give some warning, So he came seeking the mood of the god from the Sun.
And while he knelt, gradually the gray! dawn melted into purple and gold. The stars’
couch. Royalty had no medicine for the troubie; he was restless as a fevered slav i and at times muttered prayers, pronounci ; no name but Quetzal’s. When the morning{© appioa shed, he called Maxitla and bade iu |
