with sorrow and anxiety, or earned by
such faithful watching and patient wait-
ing as touches the very °Medea of life.
The men. were hungry; they had eaten
nothing all day. How, delicious was..
their meal! How happy and merry it
made the Senora; and Antonia, and
Isabel, to see them empty dieli ,after
dish; toliee their unaffected. enjoyment
of the warm room, and bright fire, of
their nfter-dinner coffee and tobacco.
There was only one drawback to the
joy of the re -union -the absence of
Jack, ay= • ,
• "His disappointment will be greater
than ours," said Jack's father. "To be
Present at the freeing of his native city, -
and to bring his first laurels to his
mother, was the brightest dream Jack
had., But jack is a fine rider'and is.
not a very fine marksman ; so it was de.
, Cided to send him with Houston to the
Convention. We -expected him back be-
fore the attack on the city began. in-
deed, we were waiting. for orders from
the Convelition to under4ke it."
Then ...you fought without orders,
father f'
"Well, yes, Afitonia--in•a way.- De;
- lays in war areas dangerous as in love.
We were surrounded by dragoons, who
scoured the country in every direction
to prevent our foraging. San Antonia
had to be taken. Seen done was well
done. On the third of December Colonel.
Milani stepped .infront of the ranks, and
asked if twtrhundred of the men would
go with him and .storm the city. The
whole eleven hundred stepped forward
and gave him their hands and. their
word. From them two hundred. Of the
finest marksmen were selected."
"I have to say that was a greatscene,
mi Roberto." .
"The _greater for its calmness, I
think. There was no shouting, no hur-
rahing, no obvious enthusiasm. It was
the simple assertion of Serious men -de-
termined to carry out their object.'
"And you stormed San Antonio with
two hundred men, father 7".
"But every man was a picked man.
A Mexican could not show his head
above- the ramparts and live. We had
no powder: and ball to waste; and I
doubt if a Single ball missed its aim." —
" A Mexican is like a Highland Scot
in one respect," said Dare he fights
best with steel. They are pied cavalry
soldiers."
"There are no finer cavalry in the
world than the horsemen• from Santa
Ye, Dare. But with powder and ball
Mexicans trust entirety to luck; and
luck is nowhere against Kentucky 'harp -
shooters. Their balls very 'seldom
'reached us, though we were close to the
ramparts, and sent them back with our
double -Dupont powder. Then they did
damage enough. In fact, wehaare taken
s. the Alamo with Mexican balls."
- "Under what flag did you fight,
Roberto ?"
"Under the Meticati republican flag
Of eighteen twenty-four; but indeed,
Maria, I do not think we had One in the
camp.'. We were destitute of all the
trappings of war -we had no unifOrms,
. no music, no flags, no positive military
discipline. But we had one heart and
mind, and one object in view; and - this
, four days' fight has shown. what men
can do, who are move& by a single,
• grand idea."
The Senora lay upon a sofa; the doc-
tor sat by her side, Gradually . their
conversation became more low and con-
fidential. They talked of their sons,
and their probable whereabouts; of all
that the Senoraiand her daughters had
suffered from the disaffection .of the ser-
vants; and the attitude taken by Fray
Ignatius. And. the doctor noticed,
without much surprise, that his wife's
political sympathies were still in a state
- of transition and uncertainty. She
could not avoid prophesying the speedy
andfrightful vengeance of Mexico. She
treated the success at San Antonio as
one of the accidents of. war. She looked
forward to an earlyrenewal of hostili-
ties.
"My countrymen are known to me,
. Roberto," she said, with a ton& that
was almost a hope of vengeance,- "They
have an insurmountable honor; they
will revenge this insult to it in some
terrible way. If the gracious Maria
holds not the hands of Santa Anna; he
will utterly destroy the.AmeriOans ! He
will be like a tiger that has become
"1 am not so much afraid. of Santa
Anna as of Fray Ignatius. Promise me,
•. my dear Marie, that you will not suffer
yourself or your children to be decoyed
by him into a convent. I should never
see you again." \
The -discussion 'on this subject was
long and eager. Antonia, talking with
Dare a little apart, could not help hear-
ing it and feeling great interest in her
father's entreaties, even though she was
discussing with Dare the plans for thifir
. future. For Dare had much to telt bis°
o betrothed, During the siege, the doctor
had discovered that his intended son-in-
law was a fins surgeon. - Dare had, with
great delicacy, been quite reticent on
, this subject, Until circumstandes made
his assistance a matter of life and death;
• and the doctor understood and .appreei-
Med the young man's silence.
"He thinks I might have a touch of
• professional jealousy --he thinks I might
suspect him of wanting .a partnership as
well as a wife, he wishes to take his
full share of the dangers of war, without
getting behind the shield of his profes-
sion "; these feelings the doctor under-
stood, and he passed from Fray Ignatius
• to this.pleasanter topic:, gladly.
Ile told the Senora What a noble son
they were going to ; he said, "when
the war is over, Maria, my dear, he shall
marry Antonia."
• "And what do you say, Roberto, if I
• should give them the fine house on the
.Plaza that my brother Perfecto left
? " *
"If you do that you will be the best
mother in the world, Maria. I then
will take Dare into partnership. He is
pod and clever ;. and I am a little
weary of work. 1 shall enjoy coming
home earlier to you.; We will go riding
and walking, and our courting days will
- begin again.

--A despatch to the Chicago Tribune
from Chattanooga, ' Tennessee, says:
"The telegraph operators on the Nash-

ganized a novel Sunday -school. Each
. Sabbath, at.2 a. m., the superintendent
operator, Bramblet; at Wartraoe, mks
the class questions over the wire, and

Daniel Webster went to college in a

was carded, spun and 'woven by; his
mother's hands, from the wool of their
own sheep. It Was dyed-in-the-wool
suit, and the color wasindige blue, the
old New England color. So Webster
was fitted out in indigo' bine from collar

-and set off grand 'and sophomoric.
