My feet caught in something on the ground, and I nearly fell down ; the lantern came in con- tact with the wall and was extinguished. It was horrible to bc thus shut up in the dark in a. place worse than the worst of dun- geons, and I felt as sick as death. “ Have you dropped the lantern ?" asked the builder, quietly. “ It will bebud travel- lingbuck without it, but I suppose I must “l-‘or heaven's sake, don’t leave me in this forsaken place," I cried. “Try and find the lantern then, air ; I will strike it match." He did so, and held it up ; I groped for the luitcmin the dim light it shed, and clasped something; I raised it toward the match." “Great heavens l" I screamed ; “ what is it I" But before he could distinguish what I held in my band the flickering match had burned out. I had seen it, and let it drop in horror. It was a human skull. I remembered nothing more for some time.

The gold is good enough ; that won’t hurt them." “ Unless they are murdered for it, as their great-great-graudfntber was," I put' in. “People don’t keep their money by them very often now,” said the builder. “ They will, of course, investit. Still, to my mind, the less said about it the better.” “ Mr. Mncdonnld," I asked, turning to him, “do you think that is the skeleton of my old ancestor’s murderer 2" “ Undoubtedly I do.” he replied. “ Then how was be shut in there to die ‘3" “I have thought of that," he answered calmly. “ I should fancy the murderer had left his victim for dead and gone after the coveted gold.

Or be may have known that: his servant wnsiu there stealing his money, and shut him in out of revenge.

You speak as though you were certain upon the subject." “ I am," he replied gravely, forgotten your vision ‘2” "Vision 2" I answered ; “if; was the night- mare; nothing else, I assure you. I had eaten veal, and it never agrees with me.” Mr. Mucdouald smiled quietly. “ Call it what you please, air, it makes no difference." \Vell ! there is not much more to tell. The doctor was taken into our coufideuca, and came by night for Sambo’s bones. I saw them afterward in a carved oaken case, in his surgery. “ \VhyI declare this is some of the old bedstead,” I exclaimed. “Yes,” he replied. laughing, “I saw them burning it, and begged some bits of the workmen. I only wish I had come sooner, I would have had more; and then the idea struck me to have it mudc into a. house for Mr. Samba.” “ This is u. queer world,” I murmured. “The very bed be murdered tliepoorold man on has become the wretch’s own coffin at last. ’ “Retribution, my dear sir, no doubt.

They were, of [ course, delighted, and believed to the day of their deaths that Sumbo had appeared to tell me of the hidden treasure.

If t e Jews resisted this trenlmcnt; the Russians cut arms and logs oil‘ the badly l used bodies and carried them to the Woods l and threw them to the wolves. Very fowl of the victims in the hospital are likely to recover, and the accounts they give of their sufferings and the treatment they experi- enced at the bands of their nggressors would appear exaggerated did their bodies not prove the truth of what they say.

She was un- dressed nud scourgcd. in the next word lies a. very young girl with an uncommonly beautiful face. She does not know what has been done to her, having been uncou- scious during the worst part of the attack, but she suffers sucb ngonies that she is in- cessantly praying for death to relieve her. The doctor in attendants tells his colleague that the way in which this poor girl was treated is a unique instance of cruelty, and that she will not outlive tho day. Close by is it little girl of six writhing in terrible pain and trying to tour the bandages from her head and face.
