THE WAR-TRAIL!

CHAPTER LXXXVIII-(Conrinven.)

I have said that at the first glance it was dixicult to tell whether the old man was gazing into the barrel of his gun or beyond it. After watching him closely, I saw that he was doing both. Now his eyes were a Ilttle raised, as if he looked upon ‘he plain,anon they were lowered,and evidently peering into the hollow tube. He was drawing the Jata of his problem from facts—he was trusting to his divin- ity for the solution.

For a long time he kept up this singu- lar process of conjuration, altervatiug his glances in equal distribution between the

hollow cylinder and the small circle of

vision that covered the Indian camp.

The others began to grow impaticnt ; all were interested iu the result, and not without reason. Standing upou the lim- its of a life-danger, it is not strange they should feel aaxiety about the issue.

So far, however, none had offered to interrupt or question the queer old man None dared. Oneor two of the party had already had a taste of his quality when fretted or interfered with, and no one desired to draw upon himself the sharp ‘‘talk” of the earless trapper.

Garey at length approached, but not until Rube, with a triumphant toss of his head, and a_ scarcely audible “* whoop” from his thin lips, showed signs that his consultation had ended, and that the “joss’’ who dwelt at the bottom of his rife barrel had vouchsafed an answer !

I had watched him with the rest. | liked that expressive pitch of the head ; J liked the low but momentous sibillation that termiuated the seance betweeu him and his tamiliar spirit. They were sigus that the knot was unravelled— that the old trapper had devised some possible plan, by which the Iudian camp might be entered.

Garey and I drew near, but not to question him. We understood him too well for that. We knewthat he must be left free to develop his purpose in his own time; and we left him free—simply placing ourselves by his side.

“ Wal, Billee!” he said, after drawing along breath, “an’ yerself, young fel- lur, what d’ee both think o’ this hyur bizness — looks ugly, don't it—eh, boyees ?”

* Taint ugly,” was Garey’s laconic answer.

“ Tho’t so meeself at first.”

“Thar aint no plan o’ fightin’ into thar camp,” said the young trapper, in a desponding tone.

‘*“The h—thur aint! What green- horn put thet idee inter yur brain-pan, Bill?”

** Wal, thar are a plan, but taint much o’ a one. We've been talkin’ it over hyar.”

** Le’s hear it,” responded Rube, with an exulting ehuckle ; *‘ le’s hev it, boyee ! an’ quick Bill, fur time’s dodrotted pre- cious ’bevt now. Wal?”

“Its jest this, Rube, nyther less nor more—the capt’n proposes to take the I[njun’s horse, and ride straight into thar cump.”’

** Strait custrut in do’ee?”’

‘‘In course—it ud be no use gwiue about the bush—they kia see him a comin’ from any side.”

“Tl be durned ef they kin—thet I'll be durned. Wagh! they cudn’t a see me—thet they cudn’t, ef every nigger o’ ‘em hed the eyes o’ an Argoose—thet they cudn’t, Billee.”

‘* How?” Linquired. ‘ Do you mean to say that it is possible for any one to approach yonder camp without being observed? Is that what you mean, Rube ?”

“That ur preezactly what I mean, young fellur; no, not adzactly thet, eyther. Oueo’ youl didn’t say. What I said wur that this hyur trapper, Rube Rawlins o’ the Rocky Mountains, kud slide inter yautler campmint jest like greased lightnin’ through a gooseberry- bush, ‘ithout e’er an Injun seein’ ’im; and thet too ef the red skinned varmints hed more eyes in thur heds than they hev lice; which, accordin’ to this child’s recknin’, ud give ivery squaw’s son o’ the gang as mivy peepers as thur ur spots in a peacock’s tail, an’ a wheen over to breed, I kalkerlate. No plan to gr iuter thur camp ‘ithout bein’ seed !

agh! yur gettin’ green, Bill Garey.”

** How can it be accomplished, Rube? Pray explain. You know how im. patient”

*‘Don’t git impayshent, young fellur ! thet ur’s no use}whetsomdever. Yu’ll need payshiuse, an’ «a good grist o’ thet ur, afore ye kin warm yur shins at yander fires ; but ee kin do it, an’ in the nick o’ time too, ef yu'll go preezactly accerdin’

to what ole Rube tells ye, av’ keep yur eye well skinned, an’ yur teeth from chatterin’—I knows yu’ll do ail thet. I knows yur weasel to the back o’ yur neck, an’ kin whip yur weight in wild- cats any day i’ the year. Now, d’yur agree to follar my dereckshuns?”

“J promise faithfully to act according to your advice.”

“‘ Thet ur sensible sayed—durnation’d sensible. Wal, then, I'll gi’ ye my device.”

As Rule said this, he moved forward to the edge of the timber, making a sigo for Garey aud myself to follow.

(Ono reaching its onter edge, but still within cover, he dropped down upon his knees, behind some evergreen bushes.

I imitated his example, and kneeling upon his right, while Garey crouched down on the left.

Our eyes were directed upoa the Todian camp, of which, and the plain

around it, we hal a good view—as good as could be obtained under the light of a too brilliant moon.

After we had surveyed the scene for some moments in silence, the old trapper condescended to begin the couversation
