steamers of the England-Am erica

steamers disappeared

obviously. "Seei" With sudden in
terest, he indicated a part of the
Mount that had been black against
the star-spangled sky, now showing
sickly points of light. 1T does mean
something. They are coming down."
And even as the marquis spoke,
clatter of hoofs on the stone pave
ment leading from the Mount to the
sand ushered a horseman into view.

another, until In somewhat desuItory
fashion, owing to the tortuous difficult
ties of the narrow way that had sep

mounted men was gathered at the
base of the rock. But only for a mo-

number, evidently In command, and
they dispersed; some to ride around
the Mount to the left, others to the
right.
