Had Kosno deliberately planned tho battle, he could not havo hit upon n de vice better calculated to give him victory than tho rftie, unanticipated, that was forced on him by tho alarm of bis follow ers at the fire from the woods. True, many of his warriors had gonodown never to rise again, but this was only a small part of the force. Thornton and his men, in hot pursuit of tho dying pirates, did not stop to ask if the lines of prostrate Iudiaus over which they dashed were liv ing or dead. They were fired but by one object, and that was to annihilate every one of Colgate's men before they could reach tho protection of the woods on the opposite side of the prairie. The pirate force was half destroyed, ami Thornton aud a few of his sailors, by a superhuman effort of speed, succeeded in headiug and turning them back. It seemed the moment fur decisive victory, but that moment passed with ut ter defeat staring him iu the face. Dashing aside the breathless men who opposed him, Thornton waa cutting his way to tho place where Colgate was dos- peratuly trying to rally his men, when again tho yells of Kosno's braves rang out, and a cloud of red warriors closed iu to the relief of their allies. Thornton saw the Imp, and appreciated tho terrible mistake. Valdez saw it too, and turning his mon with fixed bayonets, met and scattered the Indians, but they Thornton, and it seemed to strengthen him, for he tried to sit up. and failing, he fell back, and motioning in the direction of the prisoner, ho said: "Do not kill him ; ho is uiy game." iTiAi-rsu xxi. THE NTKAXMERN. Arlztah was tho I’riest of the 8nn, ami the virtual rnler of the Gland. Having no military, beoauso thcro was no foe, they had no captain; having no crime, because there was no waut, they had uo chief magistrate: and having no ambi tion but to mako each other happy, nil willingly obeyed the mild rulings of Arlz tah, to whom they looked ns priest, prophet, and king. For tho last five years -that is, since tho white stranger so miraculously reached their shores—the old priest had introduced many innova tions that (ended to elevate the people. Human sacrifices were abolished, ami n grout chango made in tho form of Hun worship. The white mnn was nevor seen by tho peopK, for he was left in the temple in tho centre of the lake, and though this fact was known to the islanders, they per- aihteil iu believing that tho white conversation, iliev now reached a white gate, which un old white headed man, soeiug their approach, opened; so that Axcal was prevented from saying souio- thing that rose to bis lips. The priest, in the mean time, bad en tered, and waited inside for tho strangers to come up. ‘‘My daughters, it is not for mo to do- man-1 why you have come to this little world of ours, Imt it is for me to see that, having como, you aro oared for aud pro tect -d, while the safely of my own people and their happiness ia assured. Follow Azcal remained with his head bowed, while the bountiful strangers followed the pi lent through a flower-covered court, iu which the only living things scon, as they advanced, were a few great white birds, standing solemnly around a central basin. At the further side of the court the priest opeued n dour, ami motioning with his hand, ho said, "This, for the present, will ho yonr home. I will send you food, and when you havo restod I will eome and talk w ith yon, and you can then toll me why you hnve come." lleforo either could reply the priest withdrew, and tho moment the girls from the snu, and could return ' tered tho white-floored room tho door, as whenever ho chose. Indeed, tho general . if a living thing, swung silently shut be- beiief—a belief that caused sorrow when him! them. Tho room, or rather hall, was ivoh whispered—whs that the white man d the old piiest would leave together d go to the better 1 »nd, which they sup posed to he an immense valley stretching away from the opposite side of the sun. It was before Arlztah that Julia and Lounh stood when AzmI said, ‘•Those are the strangers we have found."
