CHAPTER XV.

Whilst Carl and the landlord were par- taking of their food in the ravine, Viola and her maid were quitting their couches in the | cabin

The maiden was indeed wan and thin as) Corl had said. There was no bloom upon | her cheek, no fire in her eye, no ted upon her | lipe. She was languid drooping, spiritlees. | ‘Sarah, she said. ‘look at the bush again, though it will add but another disappeint | ment to those [ have already endured, Poor | Carl! he has a feeling and a true heart, yet! in this :nstance | fear he has promised more than he can perform.”

* You are despondent,’ replied Serah, ‘ qT wou!d riek my life upon Carl. and I am sure | he will not fail us. Something has occurred to detain him, but he will be here * Perhaps he may’, said Viola. but it was plain enough from her tones that hope did not anrmate her,

As soon as Sarah had comp'eted her very simple toilet, she ran to the clump of bushes. Almost weeping from an excess of joy, she hastened back to the cabin, bearing Carl’s signal with her.

She threw herself into a chair, exclaim- ing:

‘They have come! Here is the signal.’ And she held up the white rag,

A violent trembling seized Viola. The

sank down apon the side of her bed mumur- ing;

God be thanked! T am not yet deserted !’ * Did I not tell you Carl was true?’ cried Sarah, triumphantly. ‘1 knew be would not desert us!’

‘I did not doubt his disposition,’ replied Viola, ‘only bis ability. He is bere, and | am rejsiced.’

‘And I, too,’ said Sarah. ‘If we can only escape from this wretched and lore'y place ; | I wou'd bid defiance to Hans Van Kempen and his guard of British soldiers

‘But whither can we fly?’ asked Viola, * the question has occurred to me for the first time.

‘No doubt but Carl has provided a place. It must have been an important consideration in bie plang.’

Viola thought of Bryan Blonday, but then her maiden modesty recoiled at the bare thought of app'ying to him for protection.

*Let Carl decide it,’ she said, ‘I will

cheerlally trust to his arrangements, as J have often done before. With utmost alacrity, Sarah set about preparing the morning meal. Viola assisted as far as in her power, but after the food was provided she partook but sparingly.

She could not think of physicai wants | Her beart was tuo full There was an oppor-| tunity for eseape at band.

The mesl was therefore a very brief one. As soon as it was over, Sarah proposed for a dep:rture for the ravine, for there they had | agreed to meet Carl, but Viola, though eqvatty tmpeticnt as ber servant, bad more dieereticn,

‘Not yet,’ she said, ‘we must carefully avoid all con°uet that would excite suspicion of our guerd if we mean to sucered. We will remain in the cabin until our usual time of walk. ng out,

A moment's reflection convinced Sarah that this was the proper course, and she | readily arsented.

But the t:we bung heavily upon the hands of both, Anxivusly did they watch the eun | In its progress, and if was with feelings of | joy that they saw it approach their usual | hour for exercise

‘Now, said Viola, putting on her bonnet | and shawl with trembling eagerness, ‘we | wl: visit Car},’ And they left. the cabin and walked | leisurely toward the ravine, occasionally | while in sight of the clearing stopping to| plues a hardy flower, or te examine with great apparent munuteness syme fragrant sbrab.

lo this manner they passed on.and reached | the wished-for spot without exciting a sue- | picion,

*God bless your little souls,’ exclaimed | Carl, starting up eagerly, and forgetting bis | diser: tion in the intensity of his excitement. ‘Then you have discovered the signal. You | have tarried so long, thas I was tearful you | had not observed it, or that it bad been mis- placed

Viela explained the cause of their delay.

‘Well thought of,’ cried Carl. ‘I could | pot. have managed the matter better bad | | been with you’

‘You are complimentary,’ said Viola.

‘Not at.all,’ said Carl; bat answer me quickly [as your courage failed, or are you yet determised to try an escape ?’

‘The escape, by all meuns ’

‘Didn't I tell you so? said Carl, turning toward Peter, who was considerably abashed in the presence of the women.

* You did,’ replied Peter, ‘but I needed not that assurance 1 know not who would wish to tarry in the wilderress.’

‘All things are prepared — amply and snugly prepared,” said Carl,once more direct- ing his conversation to Viola.

‘There 13 only one d fli-ulty in the way, and that cannot be avoided.’

‘And what is that !’

‘Oan you and Sarah endure the fatigue of

}

4 ‘ Fear not for us. Carl,’ replied Viola, * we can endure everything to escape from our horrid imprisonment.’

‘Thew you are safe. Myself and Peter will fend you all the assistance in our power’

* And to night——’

‘Yes, certainly,’ interrupted Carl. ‘ To- night we make the effort. Let it be at as }ear'y an hour as povsible, for time is valu able.”

‘Ten o'clock ?’

‘Or earlier’

‘Tt wou'd not be safe to venture earlier,’ replied Viola. ‘It will be at a time when our little community is still

‘Let it be at that hour then. Peter has a watch, but how we can tell that hour alter the darkoess has eet.in, is more than I cdn determine. We must venture, however. You meet us in the wood beyond the clearing and toward the river Let your preparations te few. You will need po provisions, for that is already provided for. Remeinber the lighter your load is the greater will be your es eed’

‘ We will act discreetly,’ ea‘d Vio'a, * and now that we understand each other, we will separate. I de not wish to excite suspicion in the minds of the guard.’ .

‘ Right,’ said Peter. + The old fable teaches us that caution is the parent of safety. Carl and inyself wil remain closely concealed.’

“And after the interchange of friendly greet- ings Viola and Sarah returned to the clear ing, and Carl and Peter once more secreted thermse! ves. .

Here they awaited the arrival of the women,

Tbe sun was high up, and Peter and Carl were in a fever of excitement. The boat was immediately unmoored, and dragged from the concealment,and the women seated within it.

‘Now,’ eried Peter, as Carl stepped iuto the boat, ‘bring out the Hollands. After this night’s labor, it is needvd.’

Carl obeyed this injunction not unwillingly. Tre women @ere compelled to partake of the exhilirating beverage, and Carl and Peter took hbea:ty putions. When the k-g was deposited in its place, the landlord sard ;

* Now G.d bless you ail! And may your further journey be as prosperous a8 your recent one hus b +n arduous.’

‘But,’ execiaimed Viola in the greatest sur- prise, do not you accompany us? Do we part here ?’

‘Yes. My further assistance is not need- ed I ust return to Van Kempen’s Castle Carl will conduct you to a place of safety and to one who can and will protect you bewer than either of us!’

A meaning smile overspread the landlord's countenance,

Carl returoed Peter’s adieu and then dash- ed his oars into the water. The bout moved off up the stream,and Peter entered the broad path, and started for his home at a brisk pace.

* And whither are we bound, Varl ?’ asked Viola.

‘To our place of safety—-our place of security, and the only one that offers at thie time !”

* But where ?’

‘ To the camp of the Blue Brotherhood !’

Sarah uttered a joyous exclamation, but Viola was silent. She felt, however, a tumult of delicious emotions

She should see Bryan Blonday! Perhaps too, she thought, they would meet never to part again She felt thatshe would no longer oppose Bryan's desire for an immediate union, if he mentioned the subject to her.

Car! was fatigued from his night's exertions

He did not relax his ¢xertions until the sun was low in the west, and then he effected 4 landing, determined to refresh himself with & quantity of bis provisions, and another pull at the Hoilands,

The women were also fatigued, and in need of refreshment.

The stom 8 were accordingly epread under the branches of a hemlock, and the little party | enjoyed a slyvan repast.

As soon as the meal was concladed, the voyage was again continued, and with renewed ardor,

CHAPTER XVI. BRYAN BLONDAY.

Tt rong out the summer of 1777, the Blue Br therhood were unemployed, if we except a few unimportant excursions through the | country, until the dis strous attempt of the | gallant but unfortunate Herkimer to raise the seige of Fort Stanwix,

ln this bloody and obstinate action they | participated, and were most shockingly cut | to pieces After the retreat ot St. Leger and his barbarous hordes, they returned to their encampment.

In the afternoon of a day in October, a party of so diers, who were amusing them- selves on the banks of the river, discovered a sk:f approaching them. It was propelled by a single carsman, yet it proceeded swittly

be beth strong and skillful.

Ihe sports of the Brothers were diszon- tinued, and they watched the approach of the skiff.

At length they discovered, that in addition to the Oarsman, the buat contamed twe wo men.

What coald it mean?

It was a singular way of journeying in that troublesome time.

/seene Of excitement, a;

departed himeelf, and closed the door.

Viola soon revived.

After months of suffering and anguish, she was again with Br was free from the power of Hans Van !

She wept freely.

And Bryan—he of the stout heart end stubborn will, he felt it imp -ssible to restrain his emotions, and he mingled his tears with hers.

They were tears of joy.

We shall not attempt to describe the inter view. It continued for two long hours, but to the lovers they were very brief.

Bryan oyened the door and called tor Cap- tain Drake.

The captain presonted himself.

‘I bave @ tavor to ask of you,’ Bryan said,

‘Name it, said Drake.

* I desire to ba united to this woman, whe bas loved long and truly. I am algo resolved to be wed in the little chapel at Van Kempen's castle. For a bridal I desire the at of the Blue Brotherhood, one and all.”’

‘ Bravo! cried the captain. ‘ By my swor 4 and commisson! you shall be gratified! Is will be # glorious revenge !’

‘Then, in the morning we will depart for the settlement .’

‘Aye! and if the worshipfal Pztroon has erected another prison, it | serve for an- other bonfire of rejocing !”

And Drake retired, and announced the in- tentions of Bryan.

Again the boisterous troops rent the air with shouts:

‘ Huzzah! for Bryan Blonday !”

W:h the dawn of the day the troopers were upon the move next morning. [iorses were provided for the delighted Carl and hie party, and the wedding procession moved gaily and briskly forward, with the bugler at their head.

On the afternoon of the second day from their departue, the Blue Brotherhood crossed the ford and galloped up to the door of the chapel, in Van Kempen’s settlement. |

Llere the who'e command came to a halt, and in & moment the village was aroused by the oe huzzah ; ne y

‘Hazza! for Bryan Blonday !

‘Io the name of the preacher! come here gentlemen !

Fozzle and Bellamy obeyed the request.

As they caught a view of the Blue Brother. hood, the shout again went up:

* Huzzah! for Bryan Blonday!

One of the troopers dismounted, and walked rapidly towards the house of the Priest of the settlement.

Petor at once comprehended the meaning of the strange scene

‘ A wedding!’ he cried, and without wait- ing tor an «xplanation he ran to the chareh,

Betore he reached it, however, the Priest was within the altar, and Bryan aod Viola were before it,
