were even pleasing. His skin, wher-

sun; even his lips were black, and his
fair eyes looked quite startling in so
dark face. Of all the besgar-men that
1 had seen or fancied, he was the CHER

tatters of old ships canvas and old sea-
cloth; and this extraordinary patch
work was all held together by a system
of the most various and homogeneous
fastenings, brass buttons, bits of stick,

waist he wore an old brass-buckled

CHAPTER XIV.

THE MAN OF THE ISLAND.
From the side of the hill, which was
here steep and stony, spout of gravel
was dislodged and fell rafting and
bounding through the trees. My eyes
turned instinctively in that direction,
and saw figure leap with great rapid
ity behind the trunk of pine. What it
was, whether bear or man or monkey,
could in no wise tell. 1t seemed dark
and shaggy; more knew not. But the
terror of the new apparition brought
me to a stand.
was now, it seemed, cut off upon
both sides; behind me the murderers,
before me this lurking nondescript. And
Immediately began to prefer the dan
gers that l knew to those knew not.
Silver himself appeared less terrible in
contrast with this creature of the
woods. and turned on my heel, and,
looking sharply behind me over my
shoulder. began to retrace my steps in
the direction of the boats.
Instantly the figure reappeared, and,
making wide circuit. began to head
me off. 1 was tired, at any rate: but
had L been as fresh as when l rose, l
could see it was in vain for me to con-
tend in speed such an adversary. From
trunk to trunk the creature fitted like
deer, running man-like on two legs.

a WOODLAND SUMMONS.
Maiden frank ana free.

Maiden frank ana free,
Leave the town with me:
Leave the city for the woodlands,
For the fields of emerald corn,
TNor the meads with running streamlets
Singing praises to the morn;
For the hills that bound thedistance,
Crowned wI&b purple diadems;
For the sunshine GA the dewdrops,
Decking trees and plants with gems.
Maiden sweet and fair,
Young and debonair;
Leave the city's smoke and hurry.
Never-ceasing toll and pain,
Noisy streets and noisome alleys,
Love of gold and greed of gain,
Where the soul is cribbed and cabined,
Where the heart has lack of room,
Where the ghosts of want and hunger
Stalk around in robes Of gloom.
Maiden dear and free.
Nature here we see
Nature in her robes of beauty.
Glowing in her summer dress,
Free from artificial letters,
Free from sorrow and distress.
Soothed by sound of running waters,
Charmed by humming of the bees,
Let us rest within the shadows
OF the grand primeval trees.
