they could hear the :hunt of voices or
see lights high up in the ghurry or the
watch towers at the gates, but 'they
did not stop. All the +Lalla asked oc-
casionally was, ''1-Iow far yet " and
received but 'ane answer -"Coss bur."
The trees of village after village, and
the dark square forms of their ghur-
ries or castles, stood out against the
moon in succession, and each one he
hoped mightbe the last; but still they
treat on, through the same apparent-
ly endless succession of muddy lanes,
and over open ;fields and waste lands,
—faster if the ground ';were Ifirm, slow-
errf it were muddy.
Finding it of no use to speak to his
compat. lens, :the iLalla's mind revert-
ed naturally to this own condition, and
was busy now, though after dreamy
fashion, as in the morning, when
riches and honours had seemed with-
in this grasp. For after some misgiv-
ings. he had argued himself into a be-
lief of a positively agreeable t'eception

once admit his errand to time ;Beeja-
poor Court, but reserve, it for a con-
fidential communication; and lie would

resistibly polite speeches in 'his mind,
recalling verses to 'quote 'from Per-
sian poets, and the replies to his re-
marks would necessarily be in a sim-
ilar strain. What else could be expect-
ed of one of his own countrymen?
and he w'ottld make allowances for
some omissions .in strict etiquette and
courtesy. Then 'what excellent cook-
ery he s'hotild enjoy—what luxurious
rest!
!Alas! these were but the delusions
of hunger, thirst and weariness, and
were but shortlived; ]for in 'their piece
would suddenly arise a ghastly antici-
pation of violence—a dungeon and
chains ending in a lingering or sud-
den death. !Or, again, the loss of his
papers and his money—both as yet
safe. Or, perhaps, of being taken to
the royal camp, and ;sold to the Emp-
eror, a hasty doom following—an ele-
phant's fodt, or that executioner al-
ways present whom he so 'well rem-
embered.
There was no denying that such
thoughts would recur more vividly
than the others, causing the Lelia 1to
writhe in his bonds, and to break out
into a cold sweat from head to foot,
in, as it were, the very bitterness .of
death. This past, he would sink once
more into apathy and weariness, while

'when the Leila became sensible of a

distinguishable in the ;faint light, :while
the towers at the gate and ;round the
outer walls seemed .to be .exaggerated
in height and dimensions, From the,
window over the castle gateway a
light .twinkled brightly in the dark
mass of the galls and there was one
also on a bastion of the gate and a
few here and there in the village, Ar-
ound the :fields and trees were in the
deepest gloom, the upper portion of
the 'trees, where the moon's rays
caught the topmost branches. •only, be-
ing visible and a sparkle here and
there in'the little river, as it brawled
over the rocks and stones in its bed,
its hoarse murmur !being distinctly au-
dible as though it were in 1flood.
"Cheer up, ;Lallajeel be comforted;
our master never keeps anyone in sus-
pense very long," remarked �.Larksh-
tnun ,pleasantly, "When he says ch -k,
eh -k, as I do to Motee here, we know
exactly what to do."
"Be quiet for a prating fool, as thou
artl" cried Copal Singh, "and look af-
ter the horse. 'I would not have his
knees broken for a thousand rupees.
Sit square, 0 Lana! lean back, good.
man, and ease him as you go down.
Do not be afraid,"
03ut for this assurance the Lelia had
fainted. "Aih, Jentadar," he exclaimed,
"by your mother .f am too Poor to no-
tice a stranger in a strange land. I
trust to you—pity inc and be merciful
for the sake Of my children,"
"Bicharal poor ,fellow, he has chil-
dren—So have 'I," interrupted Luksh-
mun; 'and that makes it worse some-
times."
"Be silent, as you love your life,"
said the jentadar, firing a shot over
the 'Lalla's head which caused hien to
start violently, and was 'followed by
another from each of the two sten in
succession; 'be silent anal mind your
seat downhill, If elfaun Singh has not
arrived," he continued to the Wren,
"there will have been trouble enough
by this time,"
"They have passed not long ago,
Jomadar," said [Rasta; "look here are
the horses' ,footprints. "
"That is good; and they see us
now," continued Gopal Singh.
As he spoke a vivid white ;flash from
the highest bastion turret of the castle
increased its brightness, as a large
;Bengal light was burned for an ans-
wering signal. The attitude of the sig-
nal man as he held an iron' cresset
high above his head, could be distinct-
ly seen, and while the dazzling 'blaze
continued, castle, and town and vill-
age, even the open ground beyond and
the trees and temple Upon it were re-
vealed in silvery brilliance. Then, as
the first died out, another light took
its place, and bunned out leaving the
gloom more intense than •before, 'Und-
er any other circumstances the effect
would have been as surprising to the
Lelia as it was really beautiful, but
under the circumstances, the sudden
apparition of the castle, with its de-
fences and outworks, struck an addi-
tional chill to his heart and as the last
gleans of the bright light ;vent out it
seemed a type of the extinguishing of
his own hopes.
OHAPT!ER XV.
Pahar Singh had 'been long watch-
ing from the window we have before
utentioned. There were three descants
front the plain above to the village,
all witliin his view; and there were
risen on each of the bastions also,
watching lit all di'rections, He was
very restless and moody; not even the
gold found inn several hags which he
had taken to his private 'apartments—
not even the large atnotint of booty,
Which had so few light coins in it—
could dispel the gloom. 'IIe had order-
ed all about him to be silent, and even'
Amrut Rao . had obeyed him as yet;
and his little daugh't'er, who was allowe.
ed to sit in the hall when, no strangers
were present, had nestled to his side,
bet was afraid to speak,
Amrut ;.Rao knew, however, 'by ex-
perience that the more the ;faster was,
allowed to brooch over anything in this
meaner the harder it was to rally hiiv.
and as the account of the stoney had
been made up, he took the ,paper,'
trimmed the ,lamp, and stood up in an'
lee
attityde"to read, unchecked by the ac-
tual distortion off the'e'hiet's face in a
repressed fury, at which. .even his
daughter concealed herself, and cow-
ered into a corner, and which soon
brake out in violent oaths avct abuse.
Amrut Rao bent to the storm and
did not reply. ;After an interval he
read slowly:—
''T'wenLy-Seven thousand two -hun-
dred an'ct ninety-three rupees; and the
live bags of a•hruFfees which you took
;aside -410w many were in 'them?"'
"What is ,that to you? do you want
to stead them B,y-the gods1 you are
over -familiar tonight, Amrut ]Rao. Did
I not bid ye all be silent and dareyou
disobey? you -dare your cried the
chief raising himself •while the 'foam
gathered tlpon his lips, and the veins
swelled on this forehead. "Dare you!"
"My lord," replied A'n'r•ut Rao,
joining his hands, "abuse of e. ilrab-
mun out of, a noble mouth is einf—un--

"Whet need ,have 1 with wealth? he

lock broke the silence without: 'an-

three. Can it be they, ),faun Singh?
speak, by your soul, speak: , why are
you silent?"
'Let the cloud pass from your spirit,
brother; it is they, sure enough. I
would swear to Gopal 1Singh's gun by
its ring anywhere,"
"'Burn a light from the upperbas-
ti'on—two! it may cheer them down
the pass. Quick!" cried the chief; "an-
swer their signal, 10 Mann 1Singhl' if
I said anything bad, forgive me, :bro-
ther; but I was distraught with care
for that boy, Yes, they will see that,"
as the first blue light glittered over
the tillage, "Burn another, Ranoba-
a large one!" he called from the win-
dow to the men above; "we may even

Singh, there they are: the three, and

"Tell thy mother, 0 daughter, to see

many short rupees were there, Antrut
Rao?"
"'My lord, it was tis I said: the
IBrahntuns' bellies 'would be empty if

could find were nine doubtful ones"
"Then, count out fifty store—stay,
a hundred; will that feet] them?"
"You have not told me bow much
gold there tris, Maharaj," continued
the Karkoon pertinaciously, not not-
icing the gift.
"'Now, a plague on thee for an ob-
stinate 'fool, Amrut Rao," replied the
chief, laughing; "did I not tell thee
not to speak about it?"
"The total of the silver is twenty-
seven thousand two hundred & ninety
three rupees," returned the Karkoon;
"and the gold must be added to com-
plete the account before we retire."
"Well, then, there were five bags,
and fifty Akburi makers in each: will
that content you? or must you see
'them?"
