of thirty thousand dollars in gold.
Latitte. instead of replying, walked
to the fireplace, and standing beneath
the pictured face of his idol, Napoleon,
whose eyes seemed to be regarding the
group with cold intelligence, looked
down at the two seated men. His
hands were clasped behind him. and

that I cannot decide it as speedily as
you seem to expect, but must have

Capt McWilliams expostulated.

much for you in the way of wealth and
position. as against an enemy who has
prescribed you. and branded you with
infamy? 1t is very important that we

about the fortunes of war" and Nc
Williams said: But the cruelty OF the
negroes can add little, after all, to the
punishment it has been decided to In

This announcement, made with
something of a dramatic air, did not
seem to make the expected impression
upon LATTE; for he passed it by, and
said. somewhat impatiently. and with
unmistakable decision, Il repeat that

They bowed stiffiy, and he went out,
closing the door after him; and the

the key.

stepped ashore, he bade them disperse.
and motioned his guests to precede
him up the pathway leading from the
beach.
They lost no time in doing this, scru-

still puzzled outlaws. who when the
scarlet uniforms disappeared inside
the fort with Lafitte. began muttering
among themselves as to the meaning
of this strange proceeding.
Lafitte, going to buffet at one end
OIL the room, took from 1t several cut

with cigars, he placed upon the table.

''Then you may proceed to talk, for

CHAPTER Xxx,

The following day, LATTE, accom-
panied by Pierre and Nato. made a
hasty trip to Shell Island, where he
found all as he had left it, and re-
ceived a hearty welcome from all his
followers. But when, early in the aft
ernoon, he returned to Grande Terre,
1t was to scene of great excitement.
An English warship-a brig-was to
be seen in the ofiing, and boat from
it. bearing a white flag, was approach
ing the island
Lafitte went himself in a boat to
meet the stranger. which-as he saw
through CLASSIFIED. besides its
crew. two officers in the English nav

The officers introduced themselves
as Capts. Lockyer and McWilliams, of
His Majesty's navy. bearers of mes
sage from Col. Nichols. commander of
the forces in Florida. to Capt Jean La
fitte, "Commandant at Barataria."
Il will take the message. gentle
men," said LATTE. when they had stat
ed their errand, "as 1t is not quite
possible that you will be permitted to
land on the island"
At this the officers conferred with
each other in low tones: then the one
who had introduced himself as Cap
tain Lockyer. and who was the senior
of the two, addressed himself to La
fitte.
I'VE cannot do this. Our orders are
to see Capt. LATTE himself. and to
place the message in his hands"
very well. gentlemen; be it So" re-
piled LATTE. But in that case must
insist, for your own welfare, that you
go ashore in my boat, leaving your
own to lie of the island"
The Englishmen consented to this,
and the boats were brought side by
side, SO that the officers might board
the Barbarian craft.
The outlaws, wondering and excited,
and with arms ready for use. stood
watching the returning boat, wherein
the hated English uniforms showed in
