His • roug h faded him with Ilia sight, llto point of his sword sunk in the sand at his feet and he sank forwatd with a stifled respiration, for sup port upon the tree behind which he had boon concealed. Meanwhile tho same light streaming from tbs cottage which had warned Gnrabito of the np» preach of his enemy, announced to tho matador to put himself in readiness for his victim. This warning had no such effect upon the assassin as upon his principal. It was with him a slight matter of business and frequent employment, and a menial constitution of natural hard hood, had steeled him to a cool, deliberate indiffence of mood, which preserved him from every exciting emotion, Avhoiher of hostility or of fear. When he saw the figure of Vasco Nunez along the path, he passed one arm entirely round the trunk of the tree behind which lie *» 00 i i" u * it not only an impenetrable shield for tho protection of his breast, but a sort of pivot upon which his body might revolvo at pleasure.

After remaining some time absent.

'All. that I have, and seen him. too, nearly low to earth os my cross shall bring biui.’ ‘How! what mean yott»’ •He knelt to the proud senora, ami got her foot instead of her hand.
