The Senor Doetor came to us while we were there. God be blessed; but he startled uSlike the rattle of rifle -shots in the midnight! 'Why were you not at Go liad r he cried. t -There were three hundred stand of arms there, and can- . non, and plenty of provisions. Why were they not yours!' You would hive thought, Senora, he had been a loldier all Ins life. The men caught fire when he came near them, and we went to Go. lied like eaglesflying for their prey.. We took the town and the garrison, and all the arms and military stores. 'Neill tell you something that came to pass there. At midnight, as I and Jack stood with the Senor Doctor by the camp fire, a. stranger rode up to us. It was Colonel Milam. He was flying from a Mexican prison and bad not heard of the revolt. of the Americans. He made the camp ling,with his shout of delight. He was impatient for the morning. He was the first man that entered the garrison. Bravissirno l What a soldier is he I" "1 remember! Iremember 1" cried the Senora, "Mi Roberto brought him here once.. So splendid a man I never - saw before. So tall, so handsortie, so gal- lant, so like a hero. He is anAmerican from—well,then, Thaw, forgotten the _place.' "From Kentucky. He fought with the -Mexicans- when they were fighting for their liberty; but when they want- ed a king and a ictator he resigned his commission and was thrown into prison. He has a long bill against Santa Anna." " We must not forget, Luis," said the Senora with a flash of, her old temper, "that Santa. Anna represents to good Catholics the triumph of Holy Church.". Luis devoutly -crossed himself. s "I am her dutiful sop, I assure you, Senora —always." - A warningglance from Antonia changed the conversation. There was. plenty to tell which touched them main- ly on the side of the family, and the Senora listened, with pride which she could not conceal, to the exploits of her husband and sons, though she did not permit herself to confess the feeling. And her heart softened towards 'her children, Without acknowledging the tie between Isabel and Luis'she permit- ' ted or was oblivious to thefavors it al- lowed: ., Certainly Many little formalities could be dispensed with, its a meeting so.un. expected and so eventful. When the pleasant impromptu meal was over, even the Senora had eaten and drunk with enjoyment: Then Luis set the table be- hind them, and they drew closer to the fire, Luis holding Isebel's hand, and Antonia her mother's. The Senora took a cigarette from Luis, and Isabel some- times put that of Luis between her, rosy lips. _..-At the dark, cold midnight they found an hour or two of sweetest conso- lation. It was indeed hard to weary. these three heaitsst veel women; they asked question after uestion, and when any. brought out th comical side' of eamp life they forgot their pleasure was almost a clandestine one, and laughed outright, .. In the midst of snail a laugh, Rachela entered the room. She stood in speech. less amazement, gazing with a dark, ma- licious face upon the happy group. a! Senorita- Isabel I" she :screamed ; 'but this is abominable! At the midnight also"! Who could have believed in such wickedness? Grace of Mary, it is lawn, ceivable 1" She laid her hand roughly on Isabel'a shoulder, and Luis removed it with a little courtesy.. "You were not called," he :laid, with the haughty insolence of -a Mexican noble to a servant—" Depart." "My Senora Listen! You •yourself also—you will die. You that are really weak—so broken-hearted—" - Then a miracle occurred. The Senora threw off the nightmare of selfish sor- row and spiritual sentimentality which had held her in bondage. , She tosk the cigarito from her lips with a -scernful.air, and repeated the words of Luis : "You were not called. Depart." " The Senorita Isabel ?" " lain my cares Her mother's care, .do you Understand !" - "My Senora. Fro? Ignatius—" , "Saints in heaven! But this is intol- erable ! Go." s Then Rschera- dosed the clat with a clang which eehoed-through the house. And say as we will, the malice of the - wicked is never quite futile. It was impossible after this interruption to re- call the happy spirit dismissed by it ;- and Rachela had the consolation, as she tnuttered beside the fire in the Senora's room,of this conviction. So that when she heard the party breaking up half an beer afterwards, she complimented her- self upon her influence. "Will Jack come and see me soon, and the Senor Doctor ?" questioned the Senora, anxiously, As she held the hand of Luis inparting. 6. i 4 'Lek s on a Emmet message to Gem. eral Houston. His return advices will find us, I trust, in San Antonio. But until we have taken the city, DO Ameri- can can safely enter it. For this reason, When it Was necessary to give Lopez Novena certain instructions, 1 volun- teered to bring them. By the Virgin of Guadalupe 1- I have had my reward," he said, lifting the Senora's hand and kissing it. • "But, then, even you are in danger." " Si ! if I am discovered but, bless- ed be the hand of God! Lule Aleeda knows where he is going, and 'how to get there." "I have heard," said the•Senora in a bushed voice, "that there are to be no prisoners. That is Santa Anna's order." "1 heard it twenty days ago, and am still suffocating over it.' "Ah, Luis, you do not know the man yet! I heard Fray Ignatius say that," "We know him well; and also what he be capable of e, and Luis plucked his mustache fiercely, as he bowed a silent farewell to the ladies. • "Holy Maria How brave he is said Isabel, with a flash of pride that • oonquered her desire to. _weep. "How brave he -is I - Certainly, if he meets Santa Anna, he will kilt him." They went very quietly upstairs. The _ Senora was anticipating the interview she expected -with Rachel*, and, per- haps, wisely, she isolated herself in an atmosphere of sullen and haughty si- lence. She setsuld accept nothing from her, not even sympathy or flattery; and, in a. curt dismission, managed to make her feel the immeasurable dis. „ • team between a' high-born lady of the house of Flores, and rt- poor ManOla that she had taken from the streets of Mad- rid. Ratshela knew the Senora. was thinking of this circumstance ; the thought was in. her voice, and it cowed and snubbed the women, her nature be - lag essentially as low as her birth. sAs for the Senora, the experience did her a world, of good. She waited upon herself as a princess .might condescend to minister to her own wants—loftily, With a smile at her town complaisance. The 'eery knowledge that her husband wag near at hand, inspired her with courage. She went to sleep assuring herself "that not even Fray Ignatius should again speak evil of her beloved, who never thought of her, except with a loyal affection. - For in married life the wife can sin against love ai'well as fidelity; and she thoughtwith a sob of the bowardice which .permitted Frax Igna- tius to call her dear ,one "rebel and retie." "Santa Dios !".she said in a passion; •ate whisper; "it is not a mortal sin to think differently from Septa Anna "— and then more tenderly— those whb loveeach other are of the mine faith." And if Fray Ignatius- had seen at that moment the savage whiteness of her small teeth behind the petulant pout of her parted lips, he might have under- stood that this woman of small intelli- gence had also the unreasoning parti an- -Alp and the implacable .sense of anger which generally accompanies small in- telligence, and which indicates a nature governed by feelipg, and utterly irre- sponsive to reaspning which feeling_ does not endorse. 1 CHAPTER VIII.
