THE WAR-TRAIL!

CHAPTER XLII.—(Continvep).

“ Hooraw!—the rangers!” cried Garey, as he echoed the ery at the full pitch of his voice.

The guerilleros, stupefied by surprise at sight of this new enemy had paused for a momeut--no doubt faneying it was aucther party of Indians. Their halt was of short duration; the dim light favored them; rifles already played upon their ranks; and suddenly wheeling to the left, they struck out into the open plain.

The Indians, them turn off, leaned into the diagonal live to intercept them; but the rangers, already close up, had just made a similar movement, aud savage and Saxon were now obliquing towards each other.

The moon that for some minutes had been vielding but a faint light, became suddenly eclipsed by a cloud, and the darkness was now greater than ever. Garey and I saw no more of the strife ; but we ns sara the shock of the oppusiug bands; we heard the war-w hoop of the savage aiewten with the rangers’ venge- ful shout ; - we heard the * crack, crack, erack,” of yager rifles, and the quick de tonatious of revolvers—the clashing ofl sabre-blades upou spear shafie—the | ring of breaking steel—the neighing of steeds —the victor’s cry of triumph—an d the deep anguished groan of the victim.

With anxious hearts, and nerves ex- cited to their utmost, we stood upon the cliif, and listened to ¢t sounds of

dread import.

CHAPTER XLIIL

A CHAPTER OF EXPLANATIONS.

str ife

Tue fight could not have lasted more than teu minutes. The whole skirmish had the semblance of a moonlight dream, interrupted by interludes of darkuess, So | rapid had been the movements of the forces engaged, that after the first fire not | a gun was reloaded. As for the guer-

rilleros, the Indian war-cry seemed to have shaken the pieces out of their |

hands, for the ground where they had first broken off was literally strewed with carbines, escopettes, aud lances. The great gun of El Zorro was found | among the spoils.

Notwithstauding the shortness of the affair, it proved ‘sufficiently tragical to both Mexicans and Indians: five of the guerrilleros had bit the dust, and twice that number of savage warriors lay life- less upon the plaiu—their bodies glaring under the red war-paioc, as if shrouded

in blood. The Mexicans lay near the foot of the mesa, having fallen under the first fire of the

Rangers, delivered as they galloped up. The Iudiaus were further out upon the plain, where they had dropped to the thick rapid detouations of the revolvers, that, so long as the warriors held their ground, played upon them with fearful effect. They may have heard of this weapon, aud perhaps have seen a revolv- er in the hands of some trapper or travel- ler, but, to my knowledge, it was the first time they had ever encountered a band of men armed with so terrible a power to destroy; for the Rangers were indeed the first military org: wuization that carried Colt’s pistol into battle—the high cost of the arm having deterred the gov- eroment from extending it to other branches of the service.

Nor did the Rangers themselves come unscathed out of the fight; two had

dropped dead out of their saddies, pierced | by the Comanche spear; while nearly a |

dozen were more or less severely wound- ed by arrows.

While Quackenboss was climbing the cliff, Garey and | found time to talk over the strange incidents to which we had witness. We were aided by explana- tious from below, but, without these, we had vo difficulty in comprehending all, The Indians were a band of Comanches, as their war-cry had already made known tous. Their arrival onthe ground at that moment was purely accidental, so far as we or the Mexicans were coa- cerued; it was a war-party, and upon the war trail, with the intention of reiv- ing a rich Mexics an town onthe other side of the Rio Grande, some twenty leagues from the rancheria, Tzir spy had discovered the horsemen by the mesa, and made them out to be Mexi- caus—a foe which the lordly Comauche holds in supreme contempt. Not so con- temptible in his eyes are Mexican horses, silver-studded saddles, speckled serapes, -Manyas of fine cloth, bell-buttoned breaches, arms. and accoutrements ;
