Both ithe style and costume are common to Y Ithe rancheras of Mexico. Moreover, as the mustang made his last double, I had caught a near view of the side face of his irider. The features of no man—not the Trojan shepherd, not Adonis nor Endy- mion—were so exquisitely chiselled as they. Certainly a woman! Her de- claration at once put anend to my con- jectures, bnt, as I have said, did not astonish me. I was astonished, however, by its tone and manner. Instead of being uttered in accents of alarm, it was pronounced as coolly asif the whole thing had been a jest! Sadness, not supplicating, was the prevailing tone, which was. further confirmed as she knelt to the ground, pressed her lips to the muzzie of the still breathing mustang, and exclaimed : muerte! (Alas me! poor mare! dead ! * Ay-de-mi! pobre yegua! muerte |” dead !) “A woman?” said I, in feigned aston- ishment, My interrogatory was ugheed- ed ; she did not even look up. ‘“‘Ay-de-mi! pobre yegua! Lola, Loli- ta!” she repeated, as coolly as if the dead mustang was the only object of her thoughts, and I, the armed assassin, tifty miles from the spot! “ You say you are a woman? ” I again asked—in my embarassment scarcely knowing w hat to say. ** Si senor ; nada mas—que quiere V.?” (Yes, sir; uothing more—what do you want?) As she made this reply, she rose to her feet, and stood confronting me without the slightest semblance of fear. both in tone and sentiment, that for the life of me I could not help breaking into a laugh. “You are merry, sir. You have made me sad; you have killed my favor- ite !” I shall not easily forget the look that accompanied these words — sorrow, Rie coat ookiacidead 3 C ‘a aor Drawbacks | #2er, contempt, defiance, were express- thereon. ed in one and the same glance.

I loved that creature dearly— dearly as I do my life-—as I love my father—pobre yeguita—ita—ita !”’ Aud as she thus wildly expressed her- self, she bent down, passed her arms arouud the neck of the mustang, and once more pressed her lips to its velvet cheek. Then gently closing its eyelids, she rose to an erect attitude, and stood with folded arms, regarding the lifeless form with a sad and bitter expression of countenance. I scarcely knew what to say. I was ina dilemma with my fair captive. I would have given a month of my * pay- roll” to have restored the spotted mus- tang to life; but as that was out of the question, I bethought me of some means ef making restitution to its owner. offer of money would not be delicate. What then? A thought occurred to me, that prom- ised to relieve me from my embarrass- ment. ‘The eagerness of the rich Mexi- cans to obtain our large American horses—/frisomes, as they term them— was well known throughout the army. Fabulous prices were often paid for them by these ricos, who wanted them for dis- So unexpected was the auswer,|, Ag pres Two Crenrts. 1),---NU. 8.

A horse to me?— Mira!” she continued, poivting to the plain: * look there, sir! There are a thousand horses; they are mive. Now, know the value of your offer, Do I stand in need of a horse?” ‘‘ But Senorita,’ stammered J. apolo- gizingly ** these are horses of native race. The one I propose to”— Bah!” she exclaimed, interrupting me, aud pointing to the mustang; ** I would uot have exchanged that native or all the frisones in your troops. Not one of them was its equal!” A personal slight would pot have called forth a contradiction; yet this She had touch- vanity—I must With some defiance had that effect. ed the chord of my almost say of my affection. pique I replied: ** One, senorita?” I looked towards Moro as I spoke. Her eyes followed mine, and she stood for some moments gazing at him in silence. I watched the expression of her eye; I saw it kindle into admiration as it swept over the gracefully curving ontlines of my noble steed. He looked at the moment superb; the short skurry had drawao the foam from his lips, and flakes of it clang ayaivst his neck and counter, contrasting finely with the shining black of his skin; his sides heaved and fell in regular uadulations, and the smoke issued from his blood-red nostrils ; his eye was still on fire, and his neck proudly arched, as though conscious of his late triumph, and the interest he was now exciting. For a long while she stood gazing upon him, and though she spoke not a word, I saw that she recognized his fine points. * You are right, cavallero,” at length, thoughtfully ; *- he is. Just then, a series of reflections were passing through my mind, that rendered me extremely uncomfortable; and [ felt regret that I had so pointedly drawn ber attention to the horse. Would she de- mand him? That was the yhought that troubled me. I had not promised her any horse in my troop, and Moro I would not have given her for her herd of ‘a thousand; but on the strevgth of the offer I had made, what if she should fancy him? The circumstances were awkward for a refusal; indeed, under any circumstances refusal would have been painful. [ began to feel that I could deny nothing. This proud, beauti- ful’ woman aiready divided my interest with Moro! My position was a delicate one; fortu- nately, [ was relieved from it by an inci- dent that carried our thoughts into a new current; the troopers who had followed me at that moment rode up. She seemed uneasy at their presence ; that could not be wondered at, consider. ing their wild garb and fierce looks. J ordered them back to their quarters. They stared fora moment at the fallen mustang with its rich bioed stained trappings, at its late rider, and her picturesque garments; and then, mutter- ing a few words to one avother, obeyed the order. I was once more aloue with my captive. said she ”o TO BE CONTINUED, Scalds— tension ‘tant Remedy. Burns and Four years since (Sept. 77) the Ameri- can Agriculturist recommended the use of Bicarbonate of Soda, that is the common cooking soda, for most kinds of burns. Since then frequent experiments and ob- servations, the opinions of physicians, and the best Medical Journals, have more than ernfirmed all we then said. As burns and acalds are liable to occur, and as this rem- edy, though simple, has proved to be extra- ordinarily useful, it should be fixed in the mind of every one. The soda, and the car- bonic acid so readily set at liberty from it, have anesthetic, antiseptic, and disinfect- ing properties—al!l highly beneficial for burns. For slight burns cover all injured parts with a layer of powdered soda. For deeper burns, but where the skin is not broken, dip linen rags in a solution made bp dissol- ving about one third of an ounce of the soda in a pint of water; lay the rags on and keep them moist with the solution. For very eevere burns, followed by surpuration (formation of pus), apply the rags in the saine way, keeping them moist; but fre- quently exchange them when dry for fresh ones, and carefully wash off, with the soda solution, any matter, that has atcumalated underneath, so that if may not be absorbed into and poison the blood. Leading Euro- pean medical journals give numerous instances in which, by the above trentment, extensive burns of very severe character have healed speedily, leaving little scar. 2-2 eos -o ——-—_ Scores and English Tweeds—new Spring | Styles.
