CHAPTER XXXH.
THE TREASURE HUNT-THE VOICE
AMONG THE TREES.

THE TREASURE HUNT-THE VOICE
AMONG THE TREES.
Partly from the damping influence
of this alarm, partly to rest Silver and
the sick folk, the whole party sat down
as soon as they had gained the brow of
the ascent.
The plateau being somewhat tilted
toward the west, this spot on which
we had paused commanded wide pros
pect on either hand. Before us, over
the tree-tops, we beheld the Cape of the
Woods fringed with surf; behind, we
not only looked down upon the anchor
age and Skeleton island, but saw-clear
across the spit and the eastern low
lands-a great field of open sea upon
the east. Sheer above us rose the Spy
glass, here dotted with single pines, there
black with precipices. There was no
sound but that of the distant breakers,
mounting from all round, and the chirp
of countless insects in the brush. Not
a man, not sail upon the sea; the very
largeness of the view increased the
sense of solitude.
Silver, as he sat, took certain bear
ings with his compass.
There are three tall trees" said
he, "about in the right line from Skele-
ton island. 'Spy-glass shoulder L take
1t, means that lower pint there. It's
child's play to find the stuff now. I've
half mind to dine first"
Il don't feel sharp" growled Morgan.
'sThinkin' o. Flint think it were-'as
done me-"
"Ah, well, my son, you praise your
stars he's dead" said Silver.
'He was an ugly devil" cried third
pirate, with u shudder; that blue in the
face, tool"
THAT was how the rum took him."
added Merry Blue! well, / reckon he
was blue. That's true word"
Ever since they had found the skele-
ton and got upon this train of thought
they had spoken lower and lower, and
they had almost got to whispering by
now, so that the sound of their talk
hardly interrupted the silence Of the
wood. All of a sudden, out Of the mid
die of the trees in front of US, thin,
high, trembling voice struck up the
well-known air and words:
Fifteen men on the dead mans chest
Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle Of rum"
Inever have seen men more dreadful
ly affected than the pirates. The color
went from their six faces like enchant-
mcnt; some leaped to their feet, some
clawed hold of others; Morgan groveled
on the ground.
ITS Flint, by i" cried Merry.
The song had stopped as suddenly y as
it began-broken off, you would have
said, in the middle of II note, as though
some one had laid his hand upon the
singers mouth. Coming so far through
the clear, sunny atmosphere among the
green tree-tops, thought it had sound
ed airily and sweetly, and the effect on
my companions was the stranger.
"Come," said Silver. struggling with

CHAPTER XXXI.
THE TREASURE HUNT FLINT's
POINTER.

POINTER.
"Jim," said Silver, when we were
alone, "if l saved your life, you saved
mine; and I'll not forget it. I seen the
doctor waving you to run for it-with
the tail of my eye, 1 did; and seen you
say no, as plain as hearing. jim, that's
one to you. This is the first CLINT Of
hope l had since the attack failed, md
1 owe it you. And now, Jim, we're
to go in for this here treasure-hunting,
with sealed orders, too, and don't like
1t; and you and me must stick close,
back TO back like, and wen save our
necks in spite o fate and fortune"
just then a man hailed US from the
fire that breakfast was ready, and we
were soon seated here and there about
the sand over biscuit and fried junk.
They had lighted a fire fit to roast an
OK; and It was now grown 50 hot that
they could only approach IT from the
windward, and even there not without
precautiou. In the same wasteful spir-
it, they had cooked, suppose, three
times more than we could eat; and one
of them, with an empty laugh, threw
what was left into the fire which b,az.d
and roared again over this unusual fuel.
1 never in my life saw men so careless
of the morrow; hand to mouth is the
only word that can describe their way
of doing; and what with wasted food
and sleeping sentries, though they were
bold enough for a brush and be done
with il, could see their entire unfitness
qpr
paign.
Even Silver, eating away, with Capt,
Flint upon his shoulder, had not word
Of blame for their recklessness. And
this the more surprised me, for !
thought he had never shown himself
SO cunning as he did then,
SAY, mates" said he, Its lucky you
have Barbecue TO think for you with
this here head. got what wanted, l
did. Sure enough, they have the ship.
Where they have it, don't know yet;
but once we hit the treasure, We'll have
to jump about and find out. And then,
mates, US that has the boats, reckon,
has the upper hand"
Thus he kept running ON, with his
mouth full of the hot bacon; thus he
restored their hope and confidence, and,
1 more than suspect, repaired his own
at the same time.
"As for hostage" he continued,
that's his last talk, I guess, with them
he loves so dear. I've got my piece o
news, and thanky to him for that; but
it's over and done. I'll take him In a
line when we go treasure-hunting, for
we'll keep him like so much gold, In
case of accidents, you mark, and in the
meantime, once we got the ship and
treasure both, and off to sea like jolly
companions, why, then Wen talk Mr.
Hawkins over, we will, and well give
him his share, to be sure, for all his
| llindness."
1t was no wonder the men were IN a

"Ay. ay." said Silver, like enough;
YOU wouldn't look TO find bishop here,
l reckon. But what sort CT a way Is
that for bones to lie? 'Tain't in
natur'.'
Indeed, on second glance, it seemed
impossible to fancy that the body was
in a natural position. But for some
disarray (the work. perhaps of the
birds that had fed upon him. or of the
slow-growing creeper that had grad
ually enveloped his remains) the man
Law perfectly straight-his feet point
ing in one direction, his hands, raised
above his head like n Divers, pointing
directly in the opposite.
I've taken q notion into my old
numslull." observed Silver. Here's
the compass; there's the tip-top pint
of Skeleton island, stickin' out like
tooth. just take bearing, will you

1t was done. The body pointed
straight in the direction of the island
and the compass read duly Z. s. T. by E.

Il saw him dead with these here dead

in. There he laid, with penny-pieces
on his eyes"
"Dead-ay, sure enough he's dead
and gone below said the fellow with
the bandage; but if ever speerit

TWO VIRTUES DISAPPEARING.
Loyalty md Chivalry. Seem to De
Out of the Fashion.

Out of the Fashion.
Loyalty seems to be one OF the old
fashioned virtues which of late years
have become almost obsolete-loyalty
to ones friend, ones guest, even to the
members of ones family. 1t seems to
belong no longer to the ethics of mod
ern life Yes am very fond of-so-
and-so," is the usual preface, but"
and then follows the usual criticism,
which is generally exaggerated, is
often unlkind, and almost always gives
q disagreeable impression of the per
son discussed. In old days it used to be
considered bad taste to criticise either
guest or host, but such intimate inter
course nowadays seems only to give an
added opportunity for satirical remark.
1t is literally true as society is at
present constituted that person who
speaks well of friends is voted bore,
while tongue that spares no one gives
its owner decided popularity. Oddly
enough, however, the listeners who en-
foy the gossip which In the nature
of things is necessarily ill-natured,
never seem to realize while they laugh
over the shortcomings of mutual &C.
quaintances that they themselves will
be the next victims, for it may be taken
as we,l-proved rule that a person who
says sharp things of one friend will not
spare another. Every one of us is
vulnerable, and If our intimate friends
cannot "be to our virtues very kind, and
to our faults little blind" whom can
we trust? We shall have to end by
flowing our enemies" and praying to be
delivered from our friends" like
Job of old
If loyalty has become obsolete among
the women of late years, the men might
well plead guilty to another indict-
ment-chivalry with them has certain
ly died out. 1t used to be said OF
American men that they were very
Bayards in knightly homage to their
womankind. But where now is that
boasted consideration? Women are
dragged into print and have their most
private and sacred affairs discussed
without any redress. Il is not so very
long ago that courtesy toward the sex
in public conveyances used to be the
rule. Now it is the exception, and the
tone of careless Indifference prevails
even in matetrs social. Politeness to-
ward women simply because they are
women is now conspicuous by its abb
sence, and there is give-and-take sort
of manners in vogue that is very def
cient indeed in the respect shown OF
yore. Perhaps this is not altogether
the fault of the men; it may be that the
women have brought this state OF af-
fairs on themselves. If the new woman
had not appeared it is possible that the
old-fashioned gentleman would not
have gone out of existence, and that
our men might have remained preux
chevaliers-but whatever the cause,
and wherever we may look for the rea-
son, it cannot be denied that another
very desirable virtue has become prac-
tically extinct.-N. Y. Tribune.

derous glanccs. Dick. who had dropped
behind US, and now brought up the
rear, was babbling 10 himself both
prayers and curses. as his fever kept
rising. This also added TO my wretch
elnees. and, to crown all, was haunted
by the thought OF the tragedy that had
once been acted on that plateau, when
that ungodly buccaneer with the blue
face-he who had died at Savannah,
singing and shouting for drinh-had
there, with his own hand, cut down
his ssiXaccomplices. This grove, that was
now so peaceful. must then have rung
with cries, | Thought; and even with
the thought could believe l heard II
ringing still.
We were now at the margin Of the
tEicket.
"Iuz1a. mates, altogether" shouted
Merry; and the foremost broke into
run.
And suddenly, not ten yards further,
we beheld them stop. \ low cry arose.
Silver doubled his pace, digging away
with the foot of his erutch like one
possessed, and next moment he and
had come also to n dead halt.
Before us was a great excavation.
not very recent, for the sides had fallen
in and grass had sprouted on the bot
tom. In this were the shaft of pick
broken in two and the boards of sew
eral packing cases strewn around. On
one of these boards l saw. branded with
a hot iron, the name "Walrus"-the
name of Flint's ship.
All was clear to probation. The
cache had been found and rified-the
c 100000 were gone!
