COLDSTREAM. {e ONCLUDED | Before starting upon this expedition, he changed the remains of bis evening dress (for he had been writing in his dres-ing gown) for ® flannel shirt and trousers, whilst a short pea jacket and glezed hat completed bis array. His room was on the first floor, and ne had in- tended to drop from the window-sitl, but the branch of an elm came so near, he found that unnecessary, as springing to it he was on the round, like # cat, In an instant. He soon found his way across country. “‘like a bird, to the edge of the cliff.

He was Bot up, if possible, more elaborately than usua “Now, here’s a gentleman, captain, Mr. Ty- rawley, who has been all over the world, and met with strange adventures. I'll be bound he never saw anything to equal the affair of last night.” “You'd a nearish thing of it, captain ?”’ in- quired Tyrawley, speaking very slowly. His manner and appearance quite disarmed any suspicion §the captain might have had of his identity. “Fivo minutes more, Sir, and Davy Jones’ locker would have held us all. Begging your pardon, Miss,’’ apologizing to Constance. The captain had already repeated the story a reasonable number of times, and was anxious to finish his breakfast. So Miss Constance gave it all for the benefit of Mr Tyrawley, dressed in her own glowing periods. Tyrawley made no observation upon hor re- cital, but took a third exg. “Well, Mr. Tyrawley,”’ said she at last, “what do you think of the man who swam oul to the wreck ?”” “Why, I think, Miss Baynton—I think,” for Manby's rockets; but she must break up befure they come.”’ ** How far is it to Bilford ?”” + Better than seven mile, your honor.’ If we could get a rope to them, we might save the crew.” - Every one of them, your honor; but it aint possible.” Las { think a man might swim out.”’ The first wave would dask him to pieces against the cliff.’* Wheat depth of water below?” - The cliff gues down like a wall, forty fathom, at least.’” «The deeper the better the water?” \ good fifty feet.”” bi Weil, I have dived off the mnin-yard of the What distance to Ebening MISCELLANEOUS.

And I since ely hope he won't catch cold.” There was a general laugh at this, in which the captain joined; but itis to be feared that Miss Constance stamped her pretty little foot under the table. Tyrawley turned, and began to talk to Miss Mellish, who was sitting on his right. As he was speaking the door on his left opened, and Lady Grace Ravelstoke entered with the lady passenger. The lady heard him speak; and there are some voices which a woman never forgets, and the dangerous jour- ney over the rope had not passed in silence. She laid her hand upon his arm and said, “Oh, sir, how can I thank you?” Tyrawley rose #s in duty bound, saying, * Do not speak of it; I did ‘not know when 1 came off that I was to have the pleasure of as- sisting you.”’ But the astonishment of the captain was beautiful to behold.

The grip with which Tyrawley met his seemed todoa great deal more to convince him of his identity than the lady’s Tecognition of their preserver. The day was as wet as the preceding. Half an hour after breakfast, Mr. Tyrawley lounged into the back drawing-room. “There sat Miss Constance Bayuton, and, by the singular coin- cidence which favors lovers or historians, she sat alone. Now Constance had made up her mind that she was bound to apologize to Mr. Tyrawley for her rude speeches of yesterday; she had also decided that she would compliment him on his gallant conduct She had, in fact, arranged a neat, quiet, cold, formal, appropriate form of words in which she would give her views expression. eutward, then returned, looked to see that there was plenty of rope for him to carry out, rtrun, and leaped as if from board of a planging bath.

It seemed quite impossible to obtain anytbing like an accurant account of what had taken place. At last the captain appeared, and though almost overwhelmed by the multiplicity of questions, nevertheless be- tween the intervals of broiled ham and coffee. he managed to elucidate matters a little. Then came the question, Who was it who 2wam out tothe vessel. Tyrawley had only been at Kavelstoke a few days, and was a stranger in the neighborhood.
