Of not so timid a dis- position as the mouse, it more rapidly gained confidence with strangers. It wotild come regularly to Tom's whistle, and even to Strangers who chirruped to it From the repeats made to him, the governor had so far good reason to be content with 'lie experiment. The chaplain was naturally well =vitiated with Tom's case. Like the geov- treor he was a man of broad and enlight- ened views. He knew that many of these lost sheep within the prison walls were yobs • reclainted. A sprinkling, it is true, were brutelized past redemption; it is hopeless to humanize Si thorough -going gaolbird. The first great thing this gentleman :held was to plant hope in a prisoner. It is better to put a. man to death at once than to extinguish, all hope in his %oast, and in his brief MC- ItOrtglOUS the chaplain persistently pointed out to Tont that steady good conduct and submission to cliscipliue would procure con- siderable remission of hie sentence. Not very high moral grounds on which to cone ntenee A man's reformation, perhaps, but mundane means are not a bad bade on which tobegin such. It so happened that at this time a eone vireoy was oreeuized by two Or three of the worst charaeters 111 'lends gang to break their prison. They were to rise when in the quarries, overpower the wardeus super- intemling them, and then make their tweeepe AS they best could. It was the wild idea of two er three human tigers, maddened by the monotony of their lives. A few weeks ear - lien sold Tom would probably lave been taken into these MCA'S confidence, but in the words done of theme "Ifebasi grown washy and white livered ()nate," Still, if he took AO part with of them, they thought they could safely „count upon his telcin,g, no part against them. They were Inistehen. At the preconcerted signal theyrushed upon the two warders who were doing their best to superintend about Ave and twenty men. The one nearest Tom was struck dosvn before he could draw his vales; and had it not been for Tom's prompt and vig- oroos aseigance would never have rim loam. The alarm WAS At ODA) (.i.rell and help speedily canto, but for all that, had Toni Stone not kept the leadiug mutineere at hay for the two or three mmutes mem- eary for smear to arrive, that warder would have gone to his account. The metincere overpowered, and the serbnniage over, Tont's lint solicitude was about his bird. It had been hopping about a few yawls from him when the attack bed taken place, but NOW it was nowhere to be seen. In vain he wide - led, but the bird made uo response. However, just at that moment when lee was peremp- torily ordered to fall in anff take his place with the gang, preliminary to marching back, it peeped out from amid a Iteap of stones, and then came fluttering towards him. Needless to be said, the part Tom bad taken upon this occasion was recorded in Itis favor. ShOrtlY After this, 001110 three or four of the handiest of the convicts were sent in charge of a 'stonier to assist in preparing is large room at the library of the prison offi- cials for the first of the winter entertazn. Pleats. The wife of the governor always took great interest, and indeed was a prom- inent performer at these. She was there superintending the erection of the temper. arystago, and immediately recognized, Tom Stone by his being accompanied in.his bird. It was soldout her husband spoke to her about the details of the prison life, but he had mentioned this man's history, aud what e difference his having beenallowea to:adopt this pet had -made in him. She noticed the bird, and although it was contrary to all regulation to speak to a prisoner, she could not help saying to him, 'You ought to be very careful about your bird here for there are two or three cats about, anti shoula it stray far from you it might come to harm." " Thank you, ma'am," said Tom, "it is so tame it will come if you chirnm to it." Mrs. M. said no more, but in the course of the afternoon she purchased a cage, and having duly furnished it with seed ground - sol and water, took it up to the library the next morning, and. presented it to Tom Stone, with a recommendation that he should put his bird therein and keep the cage always near him, while he was work- ing there. Mrs. M. was fairly astounded at the effect of her gift. Tom Stone took the cage from her hand, made an ineffectual attempt to speak, then dropped upon the nearest chair, and burying his face upon his hands, sobbed like a child. The years rolled slowly by, but Tom henceforth bore his punishment bravely and patiently; and, even when he lost his little "friend in feathers," whose brief bird -life ended before Tom had half worked out his mitigated sentence, never lop heart. Some twelve years afterwards Tom Stone, finally found himself outside the doors of Portland, with an excellent character from the governor and. a small sum �f money in his pocket, a free man. The broken ha six- pence was round his neck, and his destina- tion clear to him. He was bound for the village near which he had. been born, the scene of his crime, the scene of his Dive.

To do the man justice, he kept his temper, but unfortunately attempted in clumsy fashion to offer consolation. "Peel I" he said, "don't rake on so about a mouse ; there's lots more to be found, in the quarries," and, unluelcily, as he spoke there was a smile upon his lips; to him it seemed absurd that any one should "take on" about a mere mouse. Ile had no conception what that mouse was to Tom Stone. "You did it on purpose, you brute," thun- dered Tom as he flew at the warder, tumbled through the cell door with him into the hall, seemingly doing his best to throttle him. Plenty of assistance, however, was at hand, and the warder, though not a little mauled, was speedily rescued, and Tom borne off in close custody to the "Separates." A prison cell may be thought no great loss, but to make one appreciate it, it is only necessary to exchange it for the "Separates.' A convict's bed may not be luxurious, nor his fare either, but they compare favorably with the bare stone bench and bread and water of the other domicile, to say nothing of the unbroken solitude of the latter. Re- fractory prisoners, after one experience think twice before incurring this punish- ment, to say nothing of the dread of the ex- treme penalty of flogging, which it is 130S - Bible may be attached to it, on the visit of the prison directors. For some weeks TOM Stone endured this discipline, and though he escaped the ex- treme penalty, on the plea of having received extreme, though unintentional provocation, yet ,he returned to his own work at the quarries tamed, Yes, tamed, as you would tame a wild beast, by semi -starvation. He did his work doggedly and sullenly, and even when speech was permitted showed no inclination to open his lips to any one. In the eyes of the warders he was decidely dangerous, not one of them bub kept a wary eye upon Tom Stone. Aral it was current talk amongst them that Stone would come to his end for murdering one of them if he ever had the opportunity. • • • • For CRAMPS, COLIC, anfr all Bowel Troubles, use PERRY DAVIS, , her band into the bosom, of her dress aud re :tilled ever havnig set eyes on ne- drew from it a slight silken cord, to which fore.

However, the name of Tom Stone was quite sufficient revelation to both the police mei the keepers. He was a gooadooking young fellow, son of a small farmer close by, and well known all around the country as a good runner, cricketer and dancer, fond. of fun and a constant attendant at all fairs or nr3rry makings within reach, a great favorite with the lasses, a man who bore a very fair record..

And to Tom, with all the 'pulses of youth running riot in his veins, this seemed a matter of such little moment. For 15 years, for life, what did ie matter? the work' was aead for Mtn; better far to have gone to his grave than to be buried in the gloomy walls of a convict prison. Poor lambere1 he was sorry for him. Still he hut the best of it now, and Tom thought grimly how willing- ly he would change places with his old.

The one serape estab- lished against Tom was that under the in- fluence of drink he had listened to the bland- ishments of a recruiting sergeant, and that his family had had to find the "smart money" in consequence. That Tom Stone should be missing from his accustomed haunts when the .search be- gan for him was only what might have been expected. Both he and his companion were quite aware that they had committed mur- der, not oold-blooded murder certainly, bat that they would be tried for their lives if captured, they'd no doubt about. The hue and cry was up againstthem, and the coun- try was scoured by the police in all direc- tions. Before a week was over Tom. Stone was a prisoner, butof his companion no trace had been discovered. The cases were widely different. Stone was known both ay name and personality to his pursuers; about the other nothing wasto be learned. The two prisoners preserved sullen silence. They refused even to acknowledge that Stone was the name of one of the•two who hadescaped. They would say nothing. They declined to give their own names., and even their identity h.td taken some trouble to establish. That was at length cleexecl up, and the fact that they came from a large and not very distant town placed beyond doubt. Stone when taken followed their example, and main- tained a similar unbroken silence. Weeks elapsed, and pill no trace of the remaining fugitive could be found. The police'after much patient search, had discovered.where Stone =tithe comradeof his flight haclparted, but beyond that they could findoutnothing. So it came to pass that after some weeks Tom stood alone in the dock arraigned for the murder at the Spring Assizes at Scud - borough, the two other prisoners being in- dicted for "night poaching with violence" only. The evidence against him was over- whelming, that though he (lid not exactly fire the fatal shot he was an accessory and instigator to the murder. The watcher proved this clearly. There was his flight and plenty of other circumstantial evidence to eorroborete all that this man had said. The watcher was positive about the name Lam- bert had used., and that it was Tom Stone who stood in the dock before the jury was beyond all doubt. "Twenty years penal servitude," was the judge's sentence and. in the opinion of the lawyers, Tom Stone was very fortunate not to have been condemned for life.

Tom Stone was, according to regular „routine, sent to Mil- bank at the conclusion of the Assizes, from which, after two or three months he was in clue course transferred to Portland. CHAPTER II. —INTITE Q17A1MIES. Tons Stone, when he arrived at the British Gibraltar, was already a sullen and embit- tered prisoner. He arrived there from Mil- bank with the character of being refrac- tory; the man's disposition had besn soured from the outset by what he considered a piece of needless tyranny on the part of his jailers. At Milbank he had of course, to change his clothes for prison dress, but further, he had taken from him his sole memento of his lost love ; he had begged, he had implored to be allowed to keep that broken sixpence. He had been told that it was contrary to the rules; it had been ex- plained perhaps more bluntly than symi pathetically that it would be kept for him and restored to him on his release. In the mean -time he must give it up.
