UNLUCKY TIM GRIFFIN. HIS LOVE AND HIS LUCK.

(ConclusioaJ

IIc climbed on to the feiudcn, and Amalia and Tim came from their don. There was a nonchn- lant meeting between the Senorita and Button- shuw ; and Tim was promoted to his prcdccssor, who had much ado to keep his countenance.

‘ Ladies and gentlemen, said Buttonsbnw, with mock gravity, ‘information, observation, and strong natural sagacity have thorougly acquaint ed me with this interesting affair. There are no secrets between us ; therefore, I pray you, let there be no false delicacy. You seem to be me- king for Conta,—good ; you can't reach it before gunfire nulcssl tow you—good; I will tow you, -—-—bcttcr; send your followa on board our craft, then, to help at once, for verily the day is for spent.”

This was done and we began to move again.

‘ Now,’ said Buttonsbaw, ‘ let me tell you that the angry father—Lord Ullin, as it wore—was waiting at the Landport (into this morning bo- foro gunfire, and the moment the druwhridge was down be flushed into Spain on his fiery quest. If he had waited for an hour or two, till your Rugged Stuff friend had thoroughly ventilated tho afl‘uir, he would now be born, instead of, or in addition to me. As it is he‘ll soon find he’s on u fulso scent—will hark back to (lib, and got laid on to the right one. Now, what are you going to do 1’

‘ \Vo’rc making for Tctuun,’ l rt‘pllud ; I the Vice- lounsnl there is to unite these young por- pcrsons, and when that is over we’re all right, you know. We hoped to make Tctunu to-nigbt; but the wind has failed and here we are. “'0 must sleep at Ucutn—-ibcrc’s some kind of hotel, I suppose ;—stnrt at dawn, and trust to our luck not to be overhauled by the enemy."

‘ Well,’ said liuttouslmw, ' I don’t see that you

can do any more ; but the rowers mustIOok sharp -—it's close to gunfire, and Cantu is us strict as (lib. \Vnkc them up, pullrcl we'll be lute.’ I may licrc mention that Ccutn, in the bands of the Spaniards, occupies the some position to Mo- rocco and the Moors as Gibraltar in the hands of the English holds to Spain and the Spaniards. It is a small pcuinsulu jutting from the mainland, strongly fbrtiliod, and employed by the Spanish (iovcrmont as on important pcnul scttlomcnt.

At last we rcncbcd the. loud, uu'l hudjust, time to collect our traps and gut within the gates when the gun fired, and they were closed.

‘Thc nick of timc,’ snid lluttonsbnw. for the hotel. I know the wuy.’

But at this moment at Spanish official stc pcd in front of us and, extending his bond, said l’nco- nicnlly, ‘ l’rntico.’

‘ By Jovo !’ I cxcluimcd, 'I forgot all about a bill of health. \tht’s to be done 1’

‘I have onc’ said Buttouslmw, extending the document to tho gt-ndurmc, who pcruscd it, and then remarked, ‘ This is nod for 17mm English— whcrc is the other? for t ere are six.’

‘I haven’t got onc,’ I said. ‘ I forgot it, but it can't signify much, we're only from Gibraltar, which is perfectly healthy at present.’

' Pardon mo,’ said the man, ‘ it signifies much -—-to which three does the bill apply 1’

‘To this lady and that gontlcmun' (pointing to his brother), ‘ and mo,’ sold liuttonsbuw, quickly. ' You are free to pnss,’ said the man. ‘ For the other three, you must go to the quarantine for the night, nnd in the. morning the Alcudc will line you for landing without ' prutico.’

‘ Bribe him, said liuttoushnw, in English.

‘ How large will be the fine, Scum-1' I in- qllll‘f‘il.

' Five dollars, perhaps, and perhaps morc.’

' I am sure you can moungc it for us without guarantinc' said I, at the some time extending it

vc-dollsr piece, wnicb he gravely pocketed. 'Ohl I’m sure you cnn,’ said ’lim, producin a similar donccur, with the some results. he fellow looked at Zeb, but that worthy making no sign. he went on, ‘ l'nqnestionably, Senorcs, you are liberal, and I thank you ; but rigorously, you must go to unrautinc.’ ' The thic i I’m afraid there’s no help for it,’ said Buttonshaw. ' What a lucky thing For": didn’t come with us, so that Miss Gayrssso gets his lace—quarantine here would have been dreadful for a lady—ell rats and mosquitoes. I'll take every care of tho Senorita, Mr. Griffin; but 'ou must be early nstir and bribe your way out lmforo gunfire, for we’ll have all Gib down on us in the morning. Adols.’ Tim clasped Amniis's hand tragically, but that young lady preserved the extraordinary unafraid which had astonished me throughout; and wish- ing us a smiling ‘good-night,’ trip cd away up the hill on Buttonslmw's arm to the Intel. The. cndnrmo then took us to the quarantine build-

‘ The Alcado,’ be shit , ‘ visits the bath at gun- fire, and with a little nrrnugomcnt’-—-(lsignificont emphasis on the word)——‘ he will, dnrcsay, deal with you at that hour.’ The quarantine won a dreadful place. We were shown into along and squalid ‘ suloon,’ as it was called, 011' which opened a sort of barrack- room, with bode ranged round the walls. The odours of the place were awful, and the air was alive with mosquitoes. ‘ Here you will dino,’ said our guide, 'nnd there you will sleep. The rooms arc clean and spacious, and you will be comfortablu.’ We put no great faith in his prophecy, but felt thankful that. mniin had been spared this fate, and that we were alone. We arranged that Zeb should be put in a separate piece. and having nothing further to do. proceeded to dine on the cold victuals we had brought with us.

short he was unreasonable and abominable to the last degree. Then the mosquitoes attacked him unmercifhily, and did not spam me. They kept me awake, and supplied the furnace of Tim’s in-

di ation with pa etuul fuel. Alto that! had a reodful time of t. Imust have mp od'to sleep towards morning, however, for awoke

with nstart at gunfire. The first object I saw was Tim standing over me. and what an object

be was! The mosquitoes had fi'cel asturcd on his opcn countcpancc, and devel his fore- hond bumps enough for the phron require- ments of a dozen sages. One 0 partially

closed and his whole appearance minded me of

the extent of his inju , took umbrsge tho mirth with which I (1 him.

' “first are you snigge at, eh1’

‘ Only at this absurd situation for a man to be in on b s woddidg momin that's nil.‘

‘Ob, that’s all, is it? hon, in order that it may be my wedding morning, erhaps you'll get up and to 0 some steps townrt s getting us out of this plucc.’

I turned out at once, and we went into the yard. It was empty. We shouted and no one answered ; we tried several doors and they were locked. At Inst, 11 small door in the back of the building yicldcd, and we went in. There was o bed in the room and a man in it.

'Quo quiuro hi 1' was his grud‘ question.

‘ We’re the Eng ish ofiicors who were brought here last night, and we wish to get out.’

‘ Ah i very likely; so do most people—undo I’

‘ Aren’t you the gcudurmc who brought us in last night, and promised to get us released at gunfire 1’

‘ No, I'm out tlm [tendon-mo who bron llf. you in last night, and, if] was, I couldcn’t ct you out—~0mlo! I'm sleepy.

‘ lint be said he would get the Alcodc to deal with us at gunfirc.’

‘Ab! did he now 1’ (slccpiiy.) ‘ Be 03' with vou.’

‘ ‘1'“ make itworth your while to arrange it,’ I sold. ' I’ll give you anything in rcuson.’

The follow woke up in n passion and swore freely. ‘If you gave me a thousand doubloons 1 couldn’t do it,’ he said. 'I am alono here, and bore I must remain till the guard of the day comos, and so must you and lie—~40 you.’

We could not choose but wait therefore. Sort-n, eight, niuo o’clock pnsscd—-no gcndurmc, no Alcudc. It was close on ten o’clock when the great door. in front of which we. were pacing, was opcncd, and our ofliciul fricnd of the night before walkcd briskly in with ochccry soiutstion.

' Good morning, Sonorcs-good morning. I hope you have rcposcd wall. I am lntcr than I expected, but. press of business has kc t mo; and us for the Alcndc, be has been at wor since gunfire, and I could not more him to come here -—-rigorousiy it was imposiblc. But courage! he will be hero soon; the day is young. There is n brcozc, and you will be at Tctuan by two o’clock.’

Tho Alcadc did not arrive, however, for nearly two hours, and when he did come contrived to waste as much time as possible. He was on Al- cndc of the ox-puttcrn,—-—slow, solemn, and om— pons. with a passion for iteration and a tiirst for details. But at last, aflcr a thousand trivial questions, including a scorching investigation as to tho rcnl nature of Tim's swelled face, be fined us live dollars each. gravely reprimanded and cautioned us. and set. us at liberty. It was near- 1 y one o'clock when we started for the hotel, full of conjectures as to the fate of our companions. 'IIow horribly anxious darling Amalia must have been about 1151’ said Tim. ‘ I've been soliislr iy rc ining too much on my own account with- out t linking enough of the door girl's sufferings. Thcv must have boon nwful 1’

‘chcr mind, old boy, they will be at an end soon. for here we are at the botcl.’

“'0 colored and inquired for our friends.

'A Senorita and two Caballeros! Certainly they slept born, but rose before unfirc, and went out immediately aftor,’ said the andlord.

‘ And have not returned since 1’

' No.’

‘ And left no message 1’

‘ No message, Senorl’

‘ lint they were to return 1’

‘ It was uncertain l

' And you know nothing more 1’

‘ I have said all.’

I pondered fur a moment, and thou exclaimed, ‘I see it all, Tim. lluttonshuw is a brick, arugu- lnr out and out brick i'

‘ \be 1’ said Tim, looking green and faint. ' I confess Idon’t see it.’

‘ Don’t sec in \Vhy, of course he's thought it all out—tho chances of our delay, the probe- bilities of an arrival from (lib and so forth, and he’s taken Amalia off to Tctunn, to put. her out of harm’s way, and everything will be in train for us when we got there. Now, don’t you .iOC 1’ ‘ Capital 1’ cried Tim, radiant at once ;' it's evi- dent. N ow I call that n downright good brother- ly action of Buttonshuw’s. IIe s a brick, bless him i and n clover one, too; and I'll never forget him as long as I live—never, by Jupiter Tonansi’ ‘ Now, let us be off and charter a boat, and follow them at once ;’ and down we wont to the western bench:

Arrived thcro, we saw at a short distance off another party, engaged apparently in bargaining for a bout. A knot of marine monsters surround- t'il them, and the transactions were accompanied by much vobcmcnt gcsticulntion. At last one of the part in the centre of the group throw up his ban s, like a man whose ultimatum has been rejected, and strode angrily from the ring and in our direction. A sudden mistincss came over my eyes, a sudden paralysis seized my knee-'oints, and every particular hair on my head felt like an inverted thorn.
