To the surprise of all, lhe spoke most highly of Timothy. lwhoni he designated as a man of ieiazellent character and inoffensive lhubitsâ€"a credit to his native vill- lage, and an honour to his lriends. l 'But I thought that he was often ‘â€"â€"~or, I should say dailv intoxicat- ‘ed?’ said the judge.

Miss. Greystock was the first to give her evidence, and repeated the tale we already know clearly and distinctly; but with timnrons glancen cast Timothy’s way from time to time, as if she expected every moment he would jump out ofllte duck, and destroy [.C' in open court. She vas questioned as to her engagement to Timothy, and re- plied, with indignationT ‘th'lt she should be sorry to have any‘hing to say to such :1 man, and would rather starve thati marry him !’ Timothy pieadufl‘ ‘ N0! guilty’ at [he trial; and the lawyer, who resented his rejection of theiy aid as an insniii’fi’fié‘fiTbTe‘s‘sigfi, were inclined to be very hard upon him, and evidently did not mean to let him ofi‘if'lhey could help it. ‘ He’ll get nothing, madamgdon't trouble about Ilial.

' But I am quite willing to aclmowi [edge that l had as much to do with Mark's destruction as the prisoner; for I settled everything for him. even to the very hour when the scene was to take place.’ ‘ You call it a scene 5" said the judge, sharply. ‘ You might find a better name for such an unprovok- ed crrmc.’ ‘ Such a tale :is this wiH riot saâ€" tist me can”, unless it has {mime proofs of its accuracy,’ said the judgv, ralhcr severely, for he began 10 think Illa, Mr. Bonilon was playâ€" ing upon his crcdulily, :anfi trying to impuse this extraordinary talc upon him for some purpose of his 0“:in dr out of contempt for the majusly of the law.

At a little. distance was a projecting point of land, between which and the spot where the savage stood, rapids were sweeping with a smooth. but swilt, current. iOne of the travelo lers asked the red man if he could swim through the rapids to the point. ‘l cannot tell,’ was the re- ply; ‘but l will try if you give me that flash of brandyi V which you servant has in his hand.’ The flask was accordingly given to him and taking it in his hand, he plunged in the tide. He swam vigorously, and soon seemed about to achive his dangerous enterprise. But deficient for a successful ex. ploit, either in strength or skill. he missed the point, and shooting a little below it, he was instantly 5.! the mercy oi the rapids. He saw his error and his danger, and struggled in desperate energy i6 gain the land, in vain!
