AI-ready a great crowd had gathered about us i those wi.o h id come out to learn the news Of the defeat. » ...eh, the day before, soin fugitives bad curried to Bristol. To their ! auestioiis, u« to nil else, I listened like a man ■ in a irunce, mid recalled t -:i--> only—thut first I WMshiveringuul In liiu r.iiu and soon after was sUiiidin •; Iwxide Delia, under guard of a dozen soldiers, and shaking with cold, be- ] ueath a gatvua* Hint leil between the two wards of tiie CUSIIH And i liere, lor an hour at least, we kiefco I. our heel-, until from th; Unier ward Oupl. Aiulihs came striding and commanded us to follow. Across the court we went in the rain, through a wiuli'*d uassagc, and, pualng a sere ii of carved oak. foun I inirmlvei sudden-ly ill u great lull, near forty yards long (as I reckon it), nil I raftered with oak. At the Car end, arovnJ a great marble table, were Btue ten or more gentlemen muted, who all wit n one accord tur 1 their eves upon us as the captain i rougbi us forward The table tielore them was littere.1 with r tps, wni'ra!'!- and panel's, and some of the , gentlemen had peon in their bands. But the one on whom my eyes fastened wasatull, fair soldier that sul in th* center, and held his majesty's letter, opeu, in his baud: who rose and bowed to HIS us 1 came near. "Sir," he atid, "me fortune of war having given you Into our hands, you will not re-tuse, I bope, to answer our questions." •'Sir I have nought to tell," answered T, bowing in return. With n deUeata white hand he waved my words aside. He had a handsome, irresolute mouth, and was, I could tell, of very differ-ent degree from the merchants und lawyers beside him. «MYou act under orders from the—the" •'Anti-Christ." put in a snappish little fel- ' low on bis right. "I do nothing of the sort," said 1. "Well, then, sir, from King Charles." "I do not." "Tush!"' exclaimed the snappish man. and then, straightening himself up, "That boj with you—that fellow disguised as a country man—look nt his boots:—he's a Papist spy:'' "There, sir. you are wrong!" •1-aw him—I'll be sworn to his face—1 JBW him, a year back, at Douai, helping at [be mans! 1 never forget faces." "Why. what nonsense!''cried I, and burst . out laughing. "Don't mock at nie, sir!" he thundered. bringing down his tl-t on the table. "I tell voU the hoy is a Papist'*1 He |>oiuted furi-ously at Delia, who, now laughing also, an-swered him vi-'vy demurely: "Indeed, sir" "I saw you. I say."

Sue wasthe Jailer's daugh-ter and wore a beuvy bunch of keys at her girdle "Oh, good morning." said I; for till now her father oni\ had visited me, and this was a well i i change. Instead of answeringcl rfully, as I looked for, she gave a little nod ol bead, rather sorrowful, und answered "Father' - n «l with the s "Now \ i.u cuiinol expect me to lies ,rry."

"1'was odd, but I sit-pied to hear u soli in her voice. However, her hack was towards me as 1 glanced up. And next moment she was gone, locking the iron door liebind her. I turned from my breakfast wiihasigh, having for the moment tasted the hojie to hear something of Delia. Hut in a while, feeling hungry, I picked up the loaf beside me and broke it in two. To my amaze, out dropped something thut jingled on the stone door. T.v.i. a small tile-, an I. examining the loaf again, I found a clasp knife ulso. and u strip of paper, neatly folded, hidden in the bread. IISAIII: JACK—Col. Esses, finding no good come of his interrogatories, hath set me at large; though 1 continue under Ins eye. to wit, with a dowager of his acquaintance, a Mistress Finch Wee dwell in a private liuiise luidwuy down ot Thomas his street, in KedclilT; and she hath put a dismal dress u|sm me (Jack, 'tis hideous), but otherwise uses me not ill. lint take care of thy self, my Uearo friend: for though the colonel be a gentleman, he is prsst by them about him, and at our last Interview 1 uoted a mischief in his eye. Canst use this tile?—(hut lake care: all the gates 1 saw guarded with troopers today.) This by one who hath been my friend: for whose sake tear the pal"-!' up A mi del. we your cordial, loving coin rade. D. K. After reading this u dozen times, till I bod it by heart, I tore the letter into small pieces and hid them in my pocket. This done, I felt lighter hearted than for many a day, and (rather for employinent than with any further view) liegan lazily to rubaway at my window bar. The file worked well. By noon the bar wus hull' severed, ami I broke off to whistle a tune. 'Twus: Vivre en tons • as. C'est le gruud soulus, and I brokeolf Ui hear the key turning in my lock. The jailer's daughter entered with my sec-ond meal. Her eyes were red with weepiug. Suid 1. "Does your father heat you?" "He has, lieforo now." she replied; "but not today." "Then why do you weepf" "Not lor that." "For what, thenf" "For you—oh. dear, dear! How shall 1 tell itl They are going to—to"— She sat down on the chair, and sobbed in her apron. "What is't they are going to do?" "To—to—U-hung you." "Thedevil I When?" "Tut-tut to-morrow mo-horning!" I went suddenly very cold all over. There wasstleDOU for a i Dent, mil then I heard the noise of some one dropping a plank in the courtyard below. "What's than" "The gug-gug'' "Gallows?" She nodded. "You are but a weak girl."'suid I, meditat-ing. "Ay, but there's a dozen troopers on the landing lielow." "Then, mi dear, you must lock me up," I derided, gloomily, and fell to whistling vivre en tout ess, I feet le grand soulos A workman's hammer in the court below chimed in, beating out tile tune mid driving the luorul home. 1 beard u low sob liehiud me. The jailer's daughter was going. "Lend in- your bodkiu, my dear, for a me ineiilo." Sin- pulled it out unit gave it to me. "Thank you, and now goad-by. Stop! Hei.'s a kiss I,I lake t.- my dear mistress. They shan't bang me. my dear." The gin went out, sobbing, and locked the door alter her. I sat down for u while, feeling doleful, for I found myself extremely young to be bunged. But soon the whang! whang! of the hummer below roused me. ••Come," 1 thought, "I'll see what that rascal is doing, ut nny rate." ami, pulling the Bis from my pocket, began to attack the window bar with a will. I had no need for silence at this gnat height above the ground, and, betides, the hammering con-tinued lustily. Daylight was closing as I finished my task und, pulling the two pieees of the bar aside, thrust HIT head OUt at the window. Directly under me and about twenty feet from tue ground 1 saw a beam projecting, ubout six feel long, over II sort of dooi'.vuy in the wall. Under this beam, on u ladder, Was n carpenter fellow at work, fortifying it with two supporting timbers that rested on the .ni of .i,„.i.„,,„.„„ u ..,.- every ni>w -^. a ravin to lb-:, a reu to [roup of ■oldien that i - * re tin feiio.v'. worl . great col] ( rope rested bj i In lad -• I;.,-!., m, Kami] I one illiug a long pipe "ii spitting, ■• 'II- i long •. last job o' tbe son.'' - \y. lad; ten I place has fallen into. But semi us a cheerful heart, say LI instead o1 the viper on' owl shall iforwurd be hangings of men an' ull manner o1 divert i I kept my head out Of sight and listened. "What time doth a' swing?" asked another of tin- Boldiel a "1 beard t!i" colonel give orders for '.' o'clock to-morrow," answered the Drat sol-dier, spitting again. The en,,-., uver tbe barbican struck four, and in a minute was being answered from tow, r ai ter l down hi l lie city. "lour o'cl icfc!" cried tie- man on the lad-der: "tun" to stop work, and heregoesfor the last uaii " lie drove H lu and prepared to descend. "Hit" shouted a soldi-a-. "you've forgot the rope." "That'll wail till to morrow. There's a staple to drive in, loo. I tell von I'm dry and want my beef ' He whipped his 'iin-ou round bis waist and. gatberiu i up bis nails, went down (he ladder. At the foot be picked up ins nag. shouldered the ladder and lounged away, leaving the coil oi rope lying ther,- Presently the sol dierasauntered off also,and ine court was empty. Now , op in this moment 1 had but one Idea of avoiding my fate, and that was to kill my sill. Twos to this end I bad borrowed the bodkin of the maid. Afterwards 1 bud a no-tion of Hinging myself from the window Bl they came forme. But now, us I looked down on that coll of rope lying directly be low,a prettier schemestruck me, 1 sntdown on tho DoorOf my cell and pulled olf my IxxHs and -lockings. Twus such u pretty plan that 1 got into u feverol Impatience, Drawingoff a stocking and picking out llu- end of the yarn, 1 began to unravel the knitting for dear life, until the whole lay a heap of thread on the floor. 1 then served the other in the same way: and at the cud had two lines, each pretty near four hundred yards in length, which now 1 divided into eight lines of ubout a hundred yards each. With these I set to work, and by tho end of twenty minutes bad plaited a rope—ifrop •, Indeed, it could be culled—weak, to be sure, but long enough to reucb the grouud with plenty to spare. Then, having bent my bod kin to the form of u hook, 1 tied it to the end of my cord, weighted it with a crown from my ]>ocket atid clambered up to the window. I was going to angle for the hangman's rojie. 'Twos near dark by this, but 1 could just distinguish it on the paving stones below, and, looking ubout the court, saw thut no one was astir 1 wriggled first my head, then a shoulder, through the opening, and let the line run gently through my hand There were still many yards left that could be paid out when I heard my coin tinkle softly on the pavement. Then began my difficulty. A dozen times I pulled my hook across the coil before it hitched, and then a full three score of times the rojie slipped away beforo I had raised it a dozen yards My elbow was raw, almost, with leaning on the sill, und I began to lose heart and head, when, to my delight, the bodkin caught and held. It bad fastened on a kink in the ro|ie. not far from the end. i began to pull up, hand over hand, trembling all the while like a leaf. For I had two very reasonable fears. First, the rope might slip away and tumble before it reached my gram, Secondly, it might. after all, prove a deal too short. It had looked to me a new rope of inuny fathoms, not yet cut for lo-niorrow's purpose: but eye-sight might well deceive at that distance, and surely enough I suw that the whole was dangling off the ground long before it cume to my hand. But at last I caught it, and, slipping buck into the room, pulled it after me, yard upon yard. My heart went loud and fust. There was nothing to fasten it to but an iron staple in the door, that meant losing the width of my cell, some sn feet,, This, however, must be risked, and I made tbe end fast, lowered the other out of the window again, and, climbing to a sitiing posture Oil the window sid. thrust out my legs over the gulf. Thankful was I that darkness had fallen before this and hidden tin- giddy depth- I-- low me. 1 gripped the rope and pushed my* self inch bj Inch through the window, uud out over the ledge. For a moment I dangled, without courage to move u baud, Then, , wreathing inv legs round the rope, I loosed , my left hand and .-night with ifugain some i six luobesJower, And so, down I went. I Minute followed minute, and left me still descending, six inches at a time, ami looking , neither above nor below, but always at the 1 gray wall that seemed sliding up in front of me, The lir-t dizziness was over, but u hor- ; rible aching uf tbe arms bad taken the pluce I of it. Twos growing intolerable, when and- - denly my leg-, mat sought to close the rope. I found space only [ bail come to tbe end. 1 looked down. A yard below my feet the beam of the gallows gleamed palely out of the darkness Here was my ohanoa 1 let my hands slip down the lust foot or so of the | rope, hung for a moment, then dropped for the beam, My f.M-t missed It, asI Intended they should, but 1 Hung both arms out a.id caught it, bringing ii;v-,li up w ith u jerk. While yet I hung clawing, I beard a fisitstep coming through the gateway bet ween the two wards. Here was I lit. With ull speed and silence 1 drew myself up to the beam, found a hold '' with one knee II|MHI it, got astride, and lay , down at len.iih. Battening tuy body down I against the timber. Yet ull the while I felt : sure I must have lu-eii heard. The footsteps drew nearer and passed ul-most under the gellowa Twos an officer, for us be passed In- called out: "Sergt. Downs! Bergt Downs!" A voice from the guard room In the barbi-can answered bllll through the darkness. "Win i- not tue watch setr "In u IlliilUI '. MI', it wauls a minute toft,'* "I thought tbe colonel ordered it at half past SI" In the silence that followed the barbican clock began to strike, aud halt a dozen troop-ers luutbliil > ni from tiw guard room, some I:-.-- .. - . mil i i : 111 lie-coldness of thi light T.i-ufllcer returned to the inner ward as they dispersed to their iiosts; and soon there was silence n< • In wive '• ■ '.. • ip. ii.unpoi a sentry crossing niiit 1% crossing the pavement below me. All this while I la] Batte 1 along the beam, tcarce daring to breathe. But at length, when the man had passed below for Kth time. I found hear) to wriggle my-self toward, the d way over which the gal lows protruded. Bj alow degrees, and pans Ing whenever the fellon drew near, I crept close up to the wall) thi i, waitingthe proper moment! oast my leg- over, dangled for a I second or two swinging myself towards the sill. Hung myself off, and, touching the ledge With one toe. pitched forward Into the room. The ,'Il'eel of this was to give inn a .sound crack OS I struck tho flooring, which lay iibouinfo.it below the level of the sill. I picked myself npand listened, Outside, the regular tramp of tic sentry proved he ln»d not heard me; and I drew a long breath, for 1 knew thai withouta lantern be would never spy, in the darkness, the telltale rope dang-ling from the lower. Ill the room where I stood all was right. But the flooring was uneven to the foxit, und scattered with small pieces of masonry. Twos one of the many chambers in the castle that hud dropped into disrepair. Groping my way with both bands, and barking my sblns on the loose stones, 1 found a low vault-ed pas-age thai, led me into a second cham-ber, empty as the Brat, To my delight, tho door of tnis was ajar, with a glimmer of light slanting through the crack. I made straight towards it, and pulled tbe door softly. It i'i I, und showed II lantern dimly burning, and the stuircn.se of the keep winding past up into dai It My chance was, uf course, to descend. which I did on tiptoe, hearing unsound. The stairs twisted down uud down, and ended by a stout door with another lampshiuing above it. After listening a moment 1 decided to be bold, and lifted the latch. A faint cry s.-i luted I stood face to face with the jailer's daugh-ter. The room was a small one, well lit, and lined about the walls with cups and bottles. Twos, as I guessed, n tap room for the sol-diers; and the girl had been scouring one of the pewter mugs when my entrance startled her. She stood up, white as if painted, and gasped: "Quick—quick! Down here behind the counter for your life!" There wus scarce time to drop on my knees before a couple of troopers lounged in, de-manding mulled beer. The girl hustled about to serve them, while the pair leaned their elbows on the counter, and in this easy attitude began to chat. "A shrewd uightl" "Ay, a very freezing frost! Lucky that soldiering is not all sentry work, or I fbr one 'ml ensue my natural trade o' plumbing. But let's be cheerful, for the voice o' the turtle is heard i' the land." "Hey?" The man took a pull at his hot beer before explaining. "The turtle signifletb the Earl o'Stamford, that is to-night visiting Col. Essex in secret; an' this is the import—war, bloody war Mark me." "Stirring, striving times!" "You may say sol 'A hath fifteen thou-sand men, tbe earl, no farther off than Taun-ton— why, my dear, bow pale you look, to be sure!" " 'Tis my head that aches," answered tho girl. The men finished their drink and sauntered out. 1 crept from under the counter ami looked at her. "Fotheril kill me for this!" "Then you shall say: Is it forward or back I must gof" "Neither." She pulled up a trap close be-side her 1..-I and pointed out u ladder leading down to the darkness. "The courts are full of troopers,v she added. "The cellui■?" She nod,!e,| "Quick! There's a door at the tar end. It leads to the crypt of St. Julia's chapel. You'll find the ley In-ido it and a lantern. Here is flint and steel." She reached them down from ii shelf beside her "Crouch down, or they'll Spy yon through the window From tbeorypt a passage takes you to the gover-nor's house. How toeseapethen.
