Its bored breathing sighed like a broezo, aud tho warmth of ita pulsations seomed to stifle the alr, “Do the loft! to tho loft!” screamed Arthur, sooing tho bewildered boys, who fled lixe doer, making directly forthe’ steopast part of the loft, Thus warned, tholads bounded up tha little foland, grasping tho cuderbrush as they climbed. Hard behind them cms Arty, pale, Ade fea{urea drawn and rigid, and bearing fu biy armaa littl girl, Mont brought up roar ‘with a stout boy on his shoulder, aod broat lous with excitement and the isbonoug run, Up tho stoop side thoy scrambled, failing and recovering themselves, but up as Iast. Soouro on a bare rock, thoy saw a beaving tido of wild croatures Pour tumultaduely ovor the cdge and fil the sy. It los from ledgo to lodge, tumblod aod broke, rallied again and swopé on, black and slept save forthe rumbling thungor of many hoofe and the panting breath of the {u- pumorable multitude, On it rolled over every obutecle, The wagon disappsarod ina twink- ing, ita white cover going down ig the black tido like n elnking ship gteoa. Past the island ke bluff, whores little group stood spoll-bound, the herd swept, the rnehinug tide separating at sho rocky polus, againss which is beat and ogriad to tho right and feft. Looking down, thoy aaw tho stroant flow by, on and ap tho Yalloy, Jt ‘waa gono, aud tho groon tuff wa brown whoro fthad been.

They paused, thnndoretrick, at tho fragments of their wayon trampled in thetorn soil, Thon, saecing the group on the rock, they hastened on, diemount- od, aud climbed the fttlq eminence. “Grent powers sbovo, Jemimy! wo atam- “pedod tho buffaloes!" said the didor of tho pair of hunters.
