What a happy crowd of boys we were, to be sure, in those good old times when our greatest troubles consisted ini tonstruing Cmsar, or learning Latin roots--when our dearest pleasures were holiday» spent in rambles th¥ough the forost, or along the pebbled, golden-sahded beach ! ' We werostudents; you know, in Dr. Minton's Academy. Who could ever forget the Doctor?--a gray- haired, kind-hearted old man; and above all, who could forget the Academy ?-- an ancient gabled strue- ture, picturesque and venerable, situated near the noisy sed, just three miles from the little village of Kingston, Many and various are my remin- fscances of these jolly school-days, but through the gathered dust of years, one memory ih particular stands oiit in bold relief, . I refer to a simple incident, which I am not iikely to forget, and which at present forms the subject of my s'ory. Among my companions was ono whoih, as the principal figure in the following sketch, it is neces sary to describe. In fact, he is my herd, this boy of fifteen, whose books and clothes were always soiled and torn, who was generally fore- most in ull kinds of misbhief, but who as you will shortly see, posses- sed soms good qualities] after all. In Minton Academy, as if the generality of schools, the detestable habit of conferring nick-names held full sway: My hero's namd was Frank, but he was universally kildivn by the sobriquet of Toby, a corrup- tion of his surname; Tobin: One Lot aftérnoon in September; whon-a lazy stillness seemed to breed over land dnd sea; Toby, Archio Duncan and myself were strolling along thé shore: The weathdr wis too warm for a gamo of ball, or even for a nesting exhibition throtich the woods. So you may fancy how idle anc listless: ly we rambled over the sands, stopp- ing now and then to pick up a cur- jously:shaped shell, or to shy a peb- prt some white:winged sea-bird. " Tiook ~at_ Red Stane Cliff," said Archiv, pointing where in thé dis: tance, a huge, jagged; perpendicular rock rose about a hundred feevabove the level of the son. "Let us goover thero to the cove and have a swim," he Gontinned' * aiid when we get there T'll tell you a story about Cap- tain Kidd." «Can't we bave the swim and the story right here ?" inquired Tody, as hesent u flat storie skipping over the sriooth sdriach of the water: «Tet us go to the cove," I suggest ed by way of compromise, "and let us have the wonderful story in the meantime." «All right remarked good-natur od Archie; "comeulong. You know boys, the big, round stone, lying by itself in tho middle of the cove, when the tide is low 2" Yes! Yes!" wo eagerly exclaimed. And then Archie went went on to to tell us how, five yeats bé fore, a 'The strange craft oxcited the cor the neighboring farmers. peared just as mysteriously 48 ft arrived. : . Shortly afterivards, however, & party of boys playing in the cove were amusing themselves by jump- ing over the rount rook. Suddenly one of their numbed astonished his companions by re- marking that the stonebad evidently been moved, 8s sand marks around the edges could testify. y The boys provided themselves with a number of stout poles, and at last succeeded in overturhing the rock, : « How, what do you think they found ?" inquired Archie, turning to us. Bed "A pot of gold prompt reply. 3 "No; but they found a hole in the sand where the pot had been. You see, the pirates carried off the pot the night before." So ended the story, and soon we reached the cove, examined the bluck rock, which we were unable to move, and spent a pleasant bali- hour plunging about among the cool, reir og waves. Ther ab foot of Redstone Cliff wo lazi#y stretched ourselves at ease; and tolda'wonderful tales, and watch- od the gills circling around us, until the evening shadows crept in from the sea and enveloped all the land. Archie rose with a yawn, stretch- ed himself, and remarked that the 1" was Toby's the thunderstorm was impending. Then be took a few steps forward and in another instant Toby and I leaped to our feet, shuddering with terror at the exclamation whith burst from Archie's lips: " Heaven save us!" : We ran towards him, and the ter: rible truth flashed through our minds when we felt cold, splashing waves around our feet: While we were tellifig storics; the treacherous autumn tide had stolen into the cove, ard the waters now hemmed us in without any means of escape ! "We must swim for our lives!" Archie cried, pulling off his coat and boots, while I followed his example. At that moment I caught a glimpse of Toby's white, scared face: My heart sank within me, and my voice trembled as I turned and said to Archie: " Poor Toby can't swim I" "Then stay with him!" Archie exclaimed. "while I go for help |-- If I can weather the point, 'a boat will be back to rescue you in half nn hout." He planged into the water, and wo watched himstruggling with the waves which were growing larger and fiercer every second: ; They conquored him, and in five minutes he was laying chilled and exhausted at our feet. "Oh, my poor mother!" Archie cried. ' What will she do ifI am drowned !" "Courage!" I exclamed, pointing to a shelf of rock protruding out ot the cliff about three fest froin the base: "Come boys, we will be safe there for a while," With throbbing h8arts and tretibl: ing liribs we huddled close together on our place of réfuge, while the dark waves rolled 1n with intréasing force, and the waters rosé highet and higher dnd higher, till they toiched our véry feet: The black sea like a hungry mon=~ ster was waiting impatiently to en- gulf us. : : We shouted till we wers hoarse, but it was all in vain, for the nearest cottage was about half a mile dis- tant and the sound of the surge wus enotigh to drotn out voices. « What will we do? What will we do?' I moaned in the anguish of finding myself face to face with death. : As long ag] live I shall never tor- getthe answer I teceivod. It was only one word and it~issued from Toby's lips : hos "Pray . hk We prayed; ob; how fervintly 'N tannot tell you! We prayed fs the the threshold of eternity ; we pray- ed until Toby's voice was heard above the clamor of the waves. « Boys," ho said, "I can't swim bat I Ban elimb." Ab yes, he could climb the highest foros trées in search of gnm or crows nests; be could climb liké a monkey,.and leap from limb with the lightness of a squirel: But what did he mean ab thit awful moment? We turned to li in wonder; and the boy pointed to' the ragged clif which towered almost a bundred feet above our beads. 8 Toby did not speak. if 1 reach the lives," his feet éntased only in rotigh wollen socks arid in open olasp knife be- tween kis teeth. 3 air was very oppressive, and that| dying pray when they totter over y with white fuce atid flashing eyes ' "I'll climb the cliff," bi said, "and the top, I'll save Four He stood grasping the solid stone, For én ilistant his lips moved as thotigh in prayer, én carefully and batitiotisly he began to ascend. It was a terrible ihdertaking-- one from which the bravbst han would recoil in -horidk--lor a single false step a crumbling stone, or a moment of dizziness, would fling the daring boy trdsbed dnd thangl- od on the rotks below. Higher and higher Toby clitibed, never casting a glance beneath him, sometithes sticking with cat-like tenacity to slippery places and again cutting into the Ghalky substance holes for his hands and fost. The twilight was deepening, a told; wet wind Bprang up; the waters were alrdady stirging around tis; and the white caps of the waves gleamod through the disk liké the flashings fangs of wolves: With breuthless interest, and in suspense which was simply agony, we walched the slender figure of the dating boy climbing and creeping up the cliff. Hal He has almost reachéd the beating, but neither of us speaks: Hush! For the first time Toby looks down froin his fearful bight; The waves are lashed into fury; the wind bowls like a maddened beast whose ptey is about to escape. A stort is raging: The boy fulters, grows dizzy. Good héaven | he has loosed hishold! He is staggering, falling; lost! No! He bas caught a projecting brahch ; he recovers his footing; he is climbing agai ho is safe, "Thank God!" Archie says at length, and from the bottom of my heart I say, "Thank God!" : Ton, fifteen,twenty minutes clapse and no signs of succor. The water has reached almost to our armpits; darkness has come, Ihave lost my foothold twice, we have grown weak and chilled; ahd our hearts are full of dispair, But hark! We hear tho sound of voices bidding us be of good hope.-- We see the flashing of lanterns, lowered from the summit of the cliff and in another instint, ropes ith noose nots are are abott oir waists, and we aredrawn up, up, up, beyond the reach of the hungry waves, up to life and safely ! From that time Toby was the hero of Minton Academy--our dearest friend, our very idol--for We always remembered that it was his daring that saved out lives on that terrible night at the base of Redstone Cliff. Visitors view with wonder the towering, perpendicular rock scaled by a little school-boy, and no one bas ever been found willing to attempt the same terrible underaking. - "Toby," by the way. is now a rich and prosperous man, and his children will find my story a true record of their fithbr's youthful daring: meth mien The qtiet fellow in the corner who lets his rivals do all the talking generally marries the girl.
