hand the claler of hoofs and the shriII
sound of the trumpet. Like flock Of
sheep awaiting the approach of wolves,
stood the late riotous mob; nov silent,
with blank faces, and gazing agape at the
sudden apparlion ofthe horsemen. Down
they came, the solid earth shaking under
them, while far in the van, on barbed
horse, rose their leader.
'Dsperse We Inavesl' he cried, in a
tone used 10 command, as he rose haugh-
lily in his stirrups. 'Disperse or we ride
you down. And turning 10 his troops,
he waved his sword and shouted,
Charge !
The word struck terror into the popu>
lace. For an instant they hesitated but
for one instant only. Up the long ave,
nue., 10 where it turned to the lef, they be-
held the ghttering line of cavalry advanc>
ing at galop, each file wheeling around
continuously as if countless numbers YET
remained behind and at the sight, the
s!outest heart gave way. The cry, fly
for your lives rose up on every hand,
and, daring into the bye streets or rush
ing head long down the main thorough
fare, the mob dispersed with the rapidity
of magic. BY the time the leading files
of the cavalry had came up, the street was
empty.
Throwing his proud steed back on his
launches as he reached the guard, the
commander of the cohort addressed his
brother officer,
we were just in time, see. / heard
on the landing, that there was riot in
the city, and the cause and galIoped
at once hither. We are to day come from
Italy; and bring important news. Di,
ocletian is dead and The prosecutions
against the Christians are to be stopped
Ii is well we came up as we did,
He would have spoken further, but al
this instant his attention was arrested by
shrek from the prisoner and the men,
ton of his own name. He turned quick
ly around, and for the first time his eyes
fell on the maiden. Quick as lightning
he leaped from his horse, finging the bril-
die at the nearest by-slander, and rushed
towards her.
Julia Anthony ? were the mutual ex,
clamations of the lovers as they fell in
each others arms, for it was the Numid>
ian hunter, now risen TO high rank who
had thus opportunely arrived 10 rescue his
mistress.
Language would be too weak to de.
scribe that meeting. In hnsle the lover
ordered a chariot to be brought for Julia
and by his commands she was conveyed
to the house OF the praelor, whose wife
took charge OF the orphan girl. The in.
telligence OF Diociclian's death spread
