THE WAR-TRAIL!

CHAPTER LXXVIJ.— (Continvugp.)

I alone could aot sleep—the fever of unrest was upon me—the demon of thought would not let me close my eyes. Though my orbs ached with the long protracted vigil, I thought that not * all the drowsy syrups of the world” could have given repose to my nerves. I felt

as one who sufferers under delirium pre- duced by the intoxicating cup—the fear- ful munia-a-patia. 1 could neither sleep nor rest.

I could not even remain seated. I rose to my feet and wandered around, without heed of where | was going. |! strode over the recumbent forms of my sleeping companious; I went among the horses ; I paced backwards and forwards along the bank of the stream.

There was a stream—a small arroyo or rivulet, It was this that had caused me to halt in that particular spot; for, wild as were my thoughts, | had enough of reason left to know that we could not encamp without water. The sight of the arroyo had decided my wavering resolution; and upon its bank, almost mechanically, T had drawn bridle and dismounted.

I once more descended to the bed of the stream, and raising the water in the palms of my hands, repeatedly applied it to my lips and temples. The cool liquid refreshed me, and seemed to soothe both my perves and my spirit. After a time both felt calmer, and Isat down upon the bank, and watched for a while the clear rivulet rippling past over its bed of yellow sand and glistening pebbles of quartz. The water was perfectly diapha- rous ; aud though the sup was no longer shiuing, I could see tiny silver-fish, of the genus hyodon, sporting themeelves in the depth of the pool. How I envied them their innocent gambols—their life

of crystal purity and freedom! Here in this remote prairie stream dwelt not the alligator, nor the ravenous garfish—here came no dolpkin or shark to chase them —no tyrant of the deep to put them in fear. Envious, indeed, such an insouciant happy existence.

I watched them for along while, till I thought that my eyes were growing heavy, and after all I might sleep. The murmur of the arroyo helped to increase this propensity for repose, and perhaps | might have slept; but, at this moment, chancing to look around, my eyes fell upon ab object that again drove sleep far away, and I was soon as wakeful as ever.

Close to my elbow where I had seated myself, grew a large plant of the Mexican aloe (agave Americana.) It was the wild maguey, bri ot a species with broad fleshy leaves, of a dark green color — somewhat resembling the maguey of cultivation I noticed that one of the great blades of the plant was bruised down, and the spine which had terminated it, torn off.

All this would not have drawn my attention. I was already aware that the Indians had made a halt where we were encamped, and their sign was plenteous around, tracks of their animals, and the broken branches of trees. One of their horses or mules might have munched at the maguey in passing; and viewing the bruised blade from a distance, I should have hazarded such a conjecture. But my eyes were close to the plant, and to my astonishment, I observed that there was writing upon the leaf /

I turned over upon my knees, and Seizing the huge blade, bent it down before me, so as to obtain a better view of its surface. I read:

‘*Captured by Comanches —a war party—have many captives—women and children—ay de mi! pobres Ninas! north- west from this place—saved from death, alas! I fear”

The writing ended abruptly. There wag no signature ; but it needed not that. I had no doubts about who was the writer, rude as was the chirography,from the materials used. I easily identified the hand, It was Isolina de Vargas who had written.

I saw that she had torn off the termin- al spine, and, using it as a stylus, had graven those characters upon the epider- mis of the plant.

Sweet, noble spirit! under any guise I could have recognized its outpouriag.

“Saved frem death! ” — thank Heaven for that! ‘Alas, I fear’’—Oh what feared she? Was it worse than death ?—that terrible fate, too terrible to think of?

She had broken off without finishing the sentence. Why had she done so?— the sheet was broad—would have held many more words. Why had she not written more? Did she dread to tell the cause of her fear? or had she been iater- rupted by the approach of some of her tyrant captors? ©, merciful Heaven! save me from thought!

I re-read the words over and over. ] examined the other leaves of the plant ; on both sides, concave and convex, I examined them; there was nothing more. Not a word more could I find

What I had real was all the had written.

WORE LIGHT |

THVUE Charlottetown Gas Light Company have imported some of % Bray's Burners,” which they will supply and fit on Gas Brackets, etc, at & moderate cost to consumers, These Burners are reported to be the best Flat Flame Burner yet produced, and will give @ fer greater amount of light than any other Burner with the same consumption of Gas. Dr, Wallace, F. R. 5. E., F. C. S., Gas Examiner to the City of Glasgow, in a lecture delivered by him, calculated that £130,000 ($650,000) a year, are thrown away in Glas gow by the use of imperfect fittings, On the subject of Gas Burners he says; ‘* Another and as I think a better Burner is that called

Bray’s regulator, acd as I consider these the best unien Burners attainable at moderate cost, I have selected them for a series of ex- periments,

The Report of the Committee of the British Association of Science to enquire as to the | best means forthe developmen; of light from Coal Gas of different qualities—comprising Dr. William Wallace, Professor Dittmar, and Mr. Thomas Wills, F. C.S., F. I, C. E., showed that Bray’s Burner's yielded the greatest amount ot light of all the two or three score of Burners reported upon, which included all the Burners of repute in the market,

In a pamphlet upon Light and Heat, pub- lished by R. B, Taber, A, M., he says: “ ‘Lhe cost of Gas as compared with other illumin- autsis much more economical when rightly used, than many suppose, From experiments made for this purpose, the following results have been obtained, They were made by burning samples of Devoe’s Brilliant Oil and ordinary Oils, and testing their illuminating power, It was found that Coal Gas costing one cent at $3 per thousand feet, gave a light equal to 18 candles, while Devoe’s Brilliant Oil consuming 27.4 grammes cost- ing halfa cent, gave a light equal to 9 candles.

“A good Argand or Johnson's Burner, the Burner's used in the last experiment, will therefore give the light of 2 ordinary Oil Burners in direct comparison, at no greater expense in the cas> of the finer and safer grades of Oil. Lights, however, on the author- ity of Scientists, are not to be compared in direct proportion, bat in proportion to the squares of their powers, and such & com- parison with the case of the use of Gas, its cleanliness, freedom from odor and dangers,

introduced,”

As the above experiments were made with Gas at $3 per 1000 fect, and not consumed through Bray’s Burners, it will readily be seen how much more economical it is to con- sume Gas instead of Oil, when its price is only $2.63 per 1000 feet as now charged bere when consumed, more especially through Bray’s burners,

Messrs, Goodwin & Co., of Philadelphia, the well-known mangacturers of Scientific in- struments for testog the illuminating power of Coal Gas, etc., say in their Circular to Gas Companies : “In presenting the Bray’s Stand- ard Patent Slit Unien Burners and Lanterns, for which we are the sole Agents in the United States, to the attention of the public, we are convinced that we are filling a want long fel:..’ They further add: ‘* The yield ot light froin these Burners is 12 to 20 per cent, greater per cubic foot of Gas consumed than that from any flat flame Burner hitherto in- troduced, [no 4 eod
