Meantime, Baptistine had landed;

came leisurely to where Lafitte was

he saw, told his alert perceptions

The latter saw him at once, and in
corrupted himself to bid Shapiro see
that the sailor awaited his further or

ne gave him instructions in regard to
placing the ladies and their maids

with fearful backward look, as La

eyes raised to meet his look answered

over the body of Zeney, intending

A second report mingled SO closely
with the first as to make them seem
but one; and Zeney. with the man
who had shot her, fell to the ground.
All had happened SO quickly that
LATTE, who was, for an instant, I'M
nerved by Rose de Cazeneau's effort
to save MIN, had scarcely time to
draw pistol before his unknown as
sailant fell, as if from the discharge
of his own weapon, which had killed
Zeney.
In their surprise and fright, and by
reason of the confusion, no one except
i-afitte had comprehended any mean
ing in the words which followed the
wild cry of Barbe, who now stood Sob
bling Historically, with her arms
around her half-swooning mistress,
while Lazalie, with dilating nostrils
and blazing eyes. sought to release
herself from Madame Riefet.
Baptistine, who had heard the shots,
reached the shore in a small boat
pulled by some OF his crew, soon after
Shapiro appeared at the edge of the
thick woods from whence had come
the bullet that had killed Zeney's slay-

He said that the other man had been
unknown to him until that same morn
ing; and all he now knew Of him was
that he was scout, picked up from
among the Indians, and bought to
serve the English. Capt. Lockyer,
who was in command Of the English
fleet upon Lake Borgne, having
learned that LATTE was in that vicin-
ity, had selected this scout to find and
capture the man upon whom he longed
to execute personal vengeance. His

AustraIia's Rabbit Plague.

The last spell of heat cleared off a
multitude of rabbits directly around
Broken Hill, and although there are
still many about, they are not nearly
SO plentiful as a few weeks ago.
However, apparently there has been
no dfminution on the holdings a few
miles from Broken Hill. At one we'll
known station the lessee has been
trapping the rabbits at the tank when
they come to drink. In this way no
fewer than $4,000 rabbits have been
exterminated at one tank in a fort
night. A CARLOAD containing 700 rab-
bits, was put on the scales and
weighed one ton.-Melbourne Argus.

attempt at resolution, as she slid

preparing to fasten.
Old Zeney had come over from
Kanauhana, having insisted upon be-

the room to announce that Captain
