[By Special Arrangement.—Copyright.] TRAITOR FRIEND 0R TRAIT0R, AN INCIDENT OF THE I AMERICAN WAR, i By C, Y, Har g reaves. Author of 't, etan,a,:lV: I &c., A c. The little t-)i-,n of Fendur had fallen into the handE of the Northern soldiers, and for a time at least, the pendulum of victory &&emed to swing in the direction of the Government. The Confederacy had suffered an overwhelming defeat. Outside the town, twenty miles away, hundreds of brave and gallant men lay waiting such burial a6 limited time and space permitted. All day long no sound, save the steady tramp, tramp I of infantry marching to the quarters Where they had been billeted, and the quick, decisive voices of the officers in commajad issuing their orders, had broken the silence, for the frightened townspeople were keeping in the shelter of their own homes, and few. eave the very curious, ventured out. Towards night, however, whoen the camp fires had been lighted in the squares and the coarse soldiery were bivouacking around then,, the streets grew animated, and people began to move about mors ireely. The oltac-ers had all been billeted either in the hotels or the private houses, where they received more or less hospitality according to the sentiments of their forced entertainers. Delicate Southern women, who had no choice but compliance, looked at these unwelcome visitors with disdain. Some of them had husbands or brothers lying stark and cold out there on the fields of Fredricbnrg, and every finer cense revolted against a show of welcome to the victors, enforcod even though that wel- come might be. now wa43 beginning to fall heavily, and where a 14ttle while before sp-urred heels had clanged loudly on the pavement, only muffled tread could now be heard. It drifted lightly up the street, and into the roaring camp fire,, upon the military overcoats of the crouching soldiery, and the leafless trees lining the streets. Someone, a tall, muscular man wrapped in a heavy grey cloak, reaching almost to his feet, who ha,d been. leaning either for shelter or support against a stone wall which flanked the garden of a small house in one of the ) streets adjacent to a big square, turned his collar high above his cars as the enow fell more thickly, and walked slowly on. He bad gone scarcely a dozen steps when a man passed him. then paused, and began to fumble at a gate in the wall. The other made a I hurried step forward, gave a keen look at the new comer, then kud his hand upon hiis j shoulder. Marshall." he said in a low tone. You here. Rutherford?" They gripped hands warmly, but Marshall ca.st a terrified ](}(1k round him. You are carrying your life in your hands," he breathed, rather than said. Yes." replied Kutherford, in equally gnarded tons?, can you take me in for an hour or two, or J shall bring you into dang-er?" What do I care for danger." said Marshall, pushing the stranger within the gate. It is of you I am thinking. Come in quickly: there is nobody there, except old Paterson and my couein De Sassure." He won't give me up, I suppose?"' Not.likely." Neither, spoke again until they were well within the shelter of the house. Marshall slammed the door behind him. Except with a latch-key it could not be opened from out- side. and then together they went into a mono oneninsr out of the hail. It was b,rightir lighted, and boro wogfa a cheery sst of comfort that Rutherford looked round with a sigh of relief. This is better than a forced march in the snow," be said, warming himself before the blaze. Marshall put both his aj-ins upon the other man's shoulders, looking at him long and eagerly. It. is good to have you here again, but how did you get through?" he asked. Fal&e pa:sspor, "And you are going where?" With dispatches and plans of the Bull Ride fortifications, through to Beauregard's lines. You see how unreservedly I trust yon," added Rutherford, with a laugh. It is ltoar duty as a loyal adherent of this fooling Yankee Government to give me up and see that I am shot as a spy and rebel at six sharp to-morrow morning." "Don't joke about it," said KarEhall. with a shudder. Ii makes my blood run cold to think of the risk you are running." It is a risk, but they wanted a man to get.. the dispatches through, so I volunteered. If I hadn't been dead beat from hunger and fatigue I should have gone straight on now. but my horse went lame ten miles out, and I have had to walk. You'll give me a shake- down and a. couple of hours' sleep, old man?" Ay. and a good feed, too." said Marshall. Then HE went out, presently returning with a well-laden tray. Here, sit down and peg into this, Kuther- ford," he said; when De Sassure comes in we will see alxrat another mount for you. Is there any risk of you being followed?" I fancy not." Kutherford fell to the provisions with the avidity of a man who is well-nigh starved. I had a narrow squeak this afternoon, but I got through by the skin of my teeth. You run as much risk by harbouring a Confederate spy, as I by being one. "VIbat did you do with the liorzel" Shot him,' said the other briefly. He bore traces of hard riding, and it looked suspicious. So you've still got that sneak Dc Oh. he is not so bad aB you always made him out." Marshall turned away to stir the fire. It could be seen that the stoop of his shoulders amounted to a deformity. But for this he would long since have joined the Government forces, although in that case HE and Rutherford, close friends now, must have met as foes. "So he has not paid you out yet for prevent- ing his getting that appointment," went on the officer, cutting another slice of bread. I always thought he bore you a grudge." Nonsense." Well," Kutherford RAWED a glass of wine to his lipc-, here's to our next merry meeting. Down with the Government and up with the Confederacy." Be careful," said Marshall, warningly. Walls have ears sometimes." Neither of them noticed that the door was slightly ajar. Have you got off scot free so far?" The officer pulled up his sleeve and showed a partially healed sabre cut. "I got this in our last engagement," he said. Then commenced a long and earnest con- versation on personal matte-re, and the fluctuation of fortune which had attended the war. Rutherford, Southern from head to heel, had been one of the first to rush off and join the Secessionists when the rebellion broke out, but opposite as were their political opinions, the affection subsisting between the two men was deep and strong, and Ruther- ford had sought shelter under his friend's roof with unshaken confidence in his loyalty. You know I would give my life for you," said Marshall at last. with some emotion in his voice, when his friend had rolled himself up in a rng, prepared to snatch a couple of hours' sleep on the sofa. And Rutherford believed him. A few minutes late De Sassure came in. He was a tall, thin, cadaverous-looking man. with a clean-shaven face and curious dark eyes. You must have let yourself in very quietly," said Marshall, in a low voice. I never heard the latch key." I have only been in a few minuter." This was a lie. De Saasure had been in the house over an hour, but not the flicker of conscious- colour warmed his cheeks. Marshall pointed to the sofa whe-re Ruther- lora was sleeping tne sleep ot healthy fatigue, and explained the situation in a few words. We must get him a mount and have him away before dawn," he added. That i-s eaBily done; I'll see about it myself. He is running a, fearful risk; some spies were shot this morning." Marshall looked white and weary; he was evidently quite worn out. Life would not be worth living to me if any harm came to Rutherford while under my roof," he added. PASSIONATELY. I There is no. need why it should. Look II here, you lie down for an hour and let me put you to sleep; I have done it before. You know my power," said De Saseure. All right," returned Marshall, looking J dreamily into the other's KEEN bla,,k eyes. But be sure you ?et me out of it in ti" to. see Kutherford off." • et* • • Colonel Oa¡ye Bat in Ma room vnUn? k4WVa'tdM' H? had twned ci?ht into dW through press of work, lor it was nearly two o'clock. "What is. it, sergeant?" he said, irritably. Two men outside, wishing to see you with reference to a Confederate pry, who is said to be concealed in the town," said the man. with a stifF salute. Show them in." A minute later and Marshall, accompanied by De Sassure, "made his appearance. He was deadly pale; his eyes had a fixed, dull expression, but his information was given lucidly enough. It seemed as if some over- nowerirg sense of duty urged him to speak. I have come to offer information with regard to a Confederate officer, for whom your men are on the watch. HL" name is Oscar Rutherford, and he carri-ed dispatches from Grant to Beauregard; ha.s also in his possession a false passport, and some plans of the fortification's of Bull Hide. He can be arrest-cd at No. 4, Block 5, Second Avenue, in an hour's time from now." Cayenove made rapid notes in his then touched ths bell. Serge.zLiit," said he. to the non-com- missioned officer who answered it. "Take a. picked company of twenty men and arrest the man named and described in this dispatch. Start in forty-five minutes." My name is Percy Mar-shall." continued Marshall, in a dull voice. "You will find him at my house." He turned and stumbled out of the room. ,<=* Oscar Kutherford was snatching a hurried breakfast before his departure. He was fully dressed, booted and spurred. Beside him lay a forage cap and a heavy military cloak. His fa-ce still bore traces of iatigue. but there waa an indomitable look of courage, and a cheery smile in the eyes which met M.arshallc across the table. We are friends still, despite North and Pluel, up hearl. South," he said cheerfully. Pluck up heart, Marshall, once this war is over, and we have given these mud-sills of Yankee clodhoppers a drubbing, you and I will have a good tinie together again." Marshall shock his head. You are in the v.Tong." he said sadly. "No State has a right to secede from the Government. You will live to learn your mistake; the South must give in. Then may J not live to see it." exclaimed the officer, dashing his hand on the table. I will die a free man, and never submit to be governed by that shop-keeping crew." He looked at his watch and siood up. Come, old fellow, it's good-bye again," he said, trying to speak cheerfully. I am eternally grateful to you for this night's shelter." Don't mention such a word as gratitude." said Marshall, putting out his hand; "wordw could not express how glad I was to see you." They were silent for a minute. Never on earth a-gain waa Marshall to see that- look of trustful confidenc.3 in Rut herford's brave eyes. The door buret suddenly open and De Sassure dashed in. "The game is up. Rutherford." he exclaimed, excitedly; some one must have given infor- mation. and the house is surrounded. You eaunot get away. Marshall rushed towards the door. "For God's 3.ke. Rutherford, escape," he exclaimed, in frantic tones. Your horse is ready siddied-et away for the love of heaven, get away." It was too late. Already the house was filled with armed men. who had overcome Pater,son's feeble resistance. The door burgt open, and a sergeant, accompanied by half- a-doz?n soldiers, entered. "Oscar Kutherford. in the name of the Government I arrest you," he Såid, Imttingo his hand upon the young officer's shoulder. On what charge?" he returned, haughtily. That of being a Confederate spy, in possession of a false passport, and plane of the fcrMncatioCfS of BuM Ride." Marshall, after one convulsive sob, stood still, laning against the wall. He was dazed. overwhelmed. Who could have given infor- mation? IRutherford, who saw that the game wa* indeed up. made no attempt at rÏ8ta. His brave eyes never faltered. His lips were set without'a tremor. Gallant gentleman and. officer to the last. he accepted hie faite with- out a murmur Who gave information?" he asked. The sergeant hesitated. It can do no harm to tell me. I shall bo a dead man in six hours,"he said. calmly. This is the gentleman who informed the Oolonel of your whereabouts." returned the sergeant, pointing to Marshall. He it named in the sheet as Percy Marshall." "It's a lie!" shouted Marshall, roused now from his stupor. I would have saved him at the cost of my life. He-my friend! Great heaven, what are you saying? Have you gone mad?" Rutherford turned round and looked at Marshall from head to foot. The unutterable scn. loathing. contempt in that look SFEMED. to shrivel the man's very soul. Even thou. mine own familiar friand," lie said, with bitter scorn. I trusted you as, I would have trusted my own soul, and you used the confidence to betray me to my death. Well, even death is rweet when life can reveal to us such villainy as this. Do your duty. sergeant. I am. quite ready to go." HA turned away, but Marshall sprang after him. Rutherford, you don't.-you cannot believe such a vile assertion," he shouted. "HeaTem is my witness I would never ha.ve injured a hair of your head. As for betraying You- I have not been out of this house since you entered it last night." Rutherford shook off the detaining hand with a gesture of utter loathing. "Traitor;" was all he said. A moment later the door had closed behind him. He had gone to his death. Morning broke, cold and grey, ending Mars- hall's night of awful vigil, and seeming to. mock him with the rapid flight of time. Entreaty, protestation, supplication, and prayer alike had been unavailing to move the military authorities to leniency. Rutherford WAS to die at dawn, die the shameful death of a traitor, and not as a gallant officer. Pale, d-cspairins. haggard, Marshall paced the road like a caged Jion. Dc Sassure was with. him. listening indifferently to bhe broken words -of agony which now and then escaped the lips of the wretched man at his side. Five o'clock came. half-past. But a very brief space of time remained now to Ozcar RUTHER. ford of life. Suddenly, De SAESM-E laid a hand oBi Marshall's arm. The evil deepened in his eyes. "Listen," he 6aid. "Years ago when you. from a Puritan, mistaken sense of duty. came between me and an appointment I wished TO obtain. I vowed that though I had to wait a lifetime I would be revenged upon you. Lasb night my opportunity came. Under the influence of the hypnotic sleep which I induced, you accompanied me to the Argosy; Hotel, and denounced your friend as a eplt. His death lies at your door. He is going tB it with his last thoughts of your ban* treachery. Is not my revenge complete?" Scoundrel!" The one word, sharp, incisive as a knife. Marshall flung out his arm, and felled De Sassure to the ground. He HAD no. time for more, but if depth of hate could have killed tbe prostrate man, then death WVMLD ?„ indeed have been his portion. Marshall W88 overcome by one overpowering desire—to see Rutherford before he died, and clear the stain of treachery from his name. On through the snowy streets he ap3d. panting, exhausted, sick at heart. despairing. He could hear itt the distance the muffled tramp of steady feet. Should he be in time ? Help! help-his brain reeled, he could hardly see. The snow clung- to his feet, the icy wind pierced him through and through, but still he ran on. Oh, HQd! what a horrible thing this was, that he should have unknowingly betrayed the man dear to him as a brother to his death! Could be live and bear it? He had almost reached the square. He could eee the grey-coated soldiers drawn up in steady ranks, he could see a, long row of men almost facing him, be could see that soldierly figure standing alone, erect, fearless. Then suddenly the sharP. sickening rattle of musketry rang out on the still air. thrilling Marshall from head to foot. He gave one wild cry of despair, flung up his. arms, and dropped unconscious on the snowy pave-, ment-he was too late! The End. TO-MORROW—"THE CRIMSON ROSES," by- ALETHEA PHILLIPS.
