While Herbert was straining his ut most glance, watching for another gleam of lightning to reveal the scene once more, something like a faint crv was heard. "By Heaven!" cried he, starting to his feet, " that cry is from the rock, and it is a woman's voice." Without further hought,except to get to the scene of danger as quickly as pos sible, Herbert dashed from his covert. Heedless of the lightning, and regard less of the rain, he was speedily wet to the skin ; but that was t ivial m'atter. After divers falls and bruises, ha con trived at last to get down to the shore opposite to the point where he know the rock wa<, and going slightly up the river, so that the wind might convey the cry of the sulierers to him, instead of drown ing it, he listened for a moment, and dis tinctly heard the cries of? "Help, help? We are drowning, wo are drowning!" 4< Where are you?are you on the rock ?" J " ^es, shouted back a man's voice, 44 we are on tho rock?the water is rap : idly gaining on U3, and our boat has gone down. Quick?make haste, make h*;ie if you hope to save us." 44 Have ycu time to wail while I run up to Dittisham for a boat ?" 44 No, no," shrieked back one of the voices: 44 the water is above our waists already, and sweeping over us with such force that we must be washed away in ten minutes." 44 Can you swim?" " No,'- was the answer. 44 God help you! It wi.l soon be over," muttered Herbert,44 and I fear I shall be lost, too My poor mother!" said he, r( throwing off his clothes one after an other, 44 but it is a duiy to try : help me, God of heaven !" cried the youth, dropping on bis knees for one moment; then running down as far above the rock as he thought it was practicable, he shouted out? " I'll swim to you." He then plunged boldly into the stream with nothing on but his shirt and trous ers, having previously tied the latter round his waist with his neckerchief. At the time that Herbert took his leap, the tide was running strongly up ths river. He therefore swam boldly down the stream a3 if making for Dartmouth, proceeding slantingly across the river to wards the opposite shore, where the beautiful woods of Greeuway shaded the boyish steps of the immortal Walter Raleigh. In the course of'a few minutes, he lift ed his voice up, 44Where are you ?" but he heard no answer, for the westerly storm swept up the river at that moment with afresh gust and drowned the reply. In another second, the heavens were once more b-illiant with lightning, and Herbert beheld, two or thn.e yards un der his lee. the ragged point of the rock like some demon holding up his jagged head, while, clinging to it, in all the agony and desperation of impending death, was a young man, who clasped in bis arms a girl of some seventeen years. Strange it is tha . in a single glance the human miud takes in the whole charac ter of the face on which it gazes. Even in that awful hour, when the fearless grave that yawned beneath them ap peared about to swallow up all these three beings. Herbert detected in that countenance just the very face that seem ed to have haunted him in all the poeti cal day-dreiBii of his soul for years. Large, full, sparkling eyes, with small delicate fucw; long, flowing, and luxuriant hair, drtnehed as it was with rain, and anguish-stricken as those features were with the horror of such a situation; that single glance, while it illled hissoul with the deepest sympathy for tho fate of his fair unknown, nerved him with fresh courage to strive against the elements, and lit in I is soul a stem determination to succeed in saving her, or to perish in the attempt. "Ghetr up !" lie cried, as, relaxing his i swimming, he put forward both his hands to guard himself from being dash ed too violently by the roaring storm against the sharp and jagged edges of the rock; then, as he succeeded in placiug his foot, and setting his back against the stream, he said to the man, "Cannotyou swim at all ?" 440h, heavens ! no, not a bit." <4Where is your boat ?" "She struck and filled, and went down instantly, when the squall came on. We were trying to cross the stream on the Dartmouth side of the rock, when the squall tx)k us." "Stay," said Herbert, "what stick is that poiuting up ?" "Nothing but one of the oars entangled in the rock." "All right," said Herbert. "Now, listen to me," putting his face close to to that of these two unfortuuate peoplev whom he could yet scarcely see in the dark, further than just to discern the general outlines of their heads. "You have no time to lose, and you must fol low implicitly what I tell you, or we shall all be lost. I will pull this oar from its sticking place, and while you put your two hands upon it?and nothing more, remember?this lady must place her two luuylq uj>qu my left sloulder. j Now, before we start oft into deep water, 1 is there any amount of your clothes that ; you c?n get rid of ? The least thing adds 1 to your weight. Men's clothes are heavy, : ladies are light, and do not so much ?ig nify." j " Llow can I get rid of my clothes," they are all so wet and clinging to me ?" i "Well, I will help you; first of all j there is your coat. Cau you hold on by : the rock with one hand for a few mo ments " I think so." "Very well, then; first let go your left hand gently, and I with my right ! will pull that sleeve off; then let go your right hand and will pull that off." "But there is my pocket-book in mv coat." 3 "Has it much money in it?" ,4^ es, two hundred pounds." 44 i hat had better have been left on shore in boating. Is it iu notes?" "Yes." ??Well, first of all I will taka out the book. Let me feel. Oh, here it is. Come, it is not so heavy as I feared ; 1 will just slick that inside my waistband. Now. then, I am read/ to pull eff the left hand?take that hand off the rock. So ! now hold fast. IJow the coat sticks! Hurrah ! that is dene. Now, then, hold fast with your left han i and let go the right. Sj, there he goes up stream to Totness," said Herbert, as soon as he had drawn the coat from its late wearer, and thrown it to sink in the bubbling tide. "Now, what boots have you got on ?" "Oh, luckily, I have got on shoes." "Well, kick them off directly, then." "I cannot?they are tied." "Well, put one of your feet out, so that I can get at it, and break the shoe string. So, that is it. There, he is gone Now, the oiher." "Oil! how the rocks cut my feet!" "Never mind the cuts now. up with the other foot. I have h:m. There goes the second shoe. Now about the goid watch and cnain. Have you eot one ?" "Yig." "Well, give it to me, T will try my best to throw it towards Dittishain shore. ; If it does not reach the drv gtound, we may at least throw it it so far into shal low water that it may be picked un next tide." r v "Just take it cfi* my neck, will ycu ?'' "I will. Ah ! it's a nice watch. It is a pity to use it so roughly." "Oh, here is my watch too," said tb* : l?dy, 44 if you will take it over my head. ' | "Thank you," said Heibert; and galh ' ering the two watches up together in the hollow of h's hand, he gave them a good * vigorous cast towards the shore, and saw them sink a few yards from it. 4:Ncw, tho;:c will easily be recoverable to-mor row morning. Have you anything else about you?keys, or any thing of that sort?" "Nothing," said the lady. 441 have some silver in my trousers pocket,'' said the gentleman. ^ "Pitch it all into the river," said Her bert ; 44 this is one of those occasions on which money is a cur^e to a man." 44 Just put, your haud in my left trou sers pocket and take it all out. then." Herbert did so, aud produced a whole handful of silver, which he threw after the watches. 44 Nuw, then, we are as light as we can get. The water is rising very rapidly, tic rcr.dy to start. You must neither of you attempt to breathe through your mouth, you must breathe through your nostri'.s, and nothing more. Just hold your noses up as much as you can above the water, but do not attempt to lift your hanus above it, tor you will sink directly. I will take hold of the other end of the oar, and swim with you towards Ditti shain; but remember that both your lives depend upon not lifting a single finger above the water. If you do that you will sink ; if you do not do that, you cannot help floating. Do you under stand ?" 44 Quite," said the lady. " 1 will try," said the man. 44 llow, then, may God help u3!" said said Herbert, laying one hand on the oar, while he still clung to the rock with the other, aii?r a little difliculty he suc ceeded in extracting the blade of the oar from the crevice of the rock in which it had struck, and at once more floated in the water. 44 Now, then," said Herbert, getting it round into the proper position," just lay your two hands here, where the leather is." 44 But if I let go my sister she wdl sink." " No, please God, she shall not. Here, madam, place both your hands now on my left shoulder, before he takes the oar. Now, rest on me your full weight, and never mind swallowing a little water, both of you." As Herbert said this, he slipped round to the side of the rock where they were, aud placing himself on the lady's right hand, she took fast hold of his dress at the point ind.cated ; and, as she did so, she felt her feet borne away by the river. 44 Oh, I am sinking ! Oh, I am sink ing!" 4' Oh, no, you will not sink. Ketp your head down and rest on me. Now, quick, my hoy, clasp hold of the oar." 441 will! I will!" gasped the unfortu nate man; and the moment he did so away went all three on the bosom of that angry tide, right into the deep water. 4* 1 am drowning! 1 am drowning !" shrieked the man. 44 No, no, you are all right now; keep your courage up?we will soon bo on shore." And Herbert, getting suffi ciently out of his r t ach not to be entan glod with hitn, stuck the blade of the oar between his teeth, and struck out boldly for the little fishing village of Dittisham. Going up the river, with the stream and wind, the progress of tho trio was rapid; and as Herbert struck out with the ut most possible energy towards the lights that still gleamed from the cottagers' windows, where the beach shelved down much more gently thin in the adjacent parts of the nrer, he succeeded in about ten minutes in getting them into still water, made by the projecting race as it advanced out of that narrow strait of tho river where the scene of the catastrophe happened. In a few minutes Herbert 8lru-k his foot against the shore, and instantly n>se op, the water not coining above his waist. 44 Thank Heaven, ire arc saved !" said he, for the first time placing his ami around the waist of the gentle being who. without a murmur, had so implicitly fol lowed his instructions ; but when lie ex pected some reply, he found the excite ment of the scene had ended in her faint ing. Knowing well, from past lectures of his friend Drystick, what was the proper treatment of a lady under these circum stances., and that the best practice was instantly to lower the head, Herbert (no ways reluctant, be it confessed ) caught her ligiit and graceful figure in his anns, and while the long dishevelled hair fell down streaming with water, he raised her little tiny feet, as she U7 in his em brace like a pale statue. Even in that time of excitement, he could not Leln momentarily glancing, with nn admiring and minute ej-e, on the lovely features he pressed to his bosom; but the darkness was too grtat to do more than jrs a>si.-t the imagination in believing that noth ing that nothing could surpass her beau ty "Come along quickly, mv boy," said he, turning to the brother, who, to his as tonishment, was so overcome with the Hanger through which he had passed, that he remained floundering in the water up to his neck, unable to rise. "Help me, help!" he cried, "all my strength is gone." "I cannot help you, my boy, I have carry your sister. Ccme, jump up, like a mm; all the danger is over now?j?ut your arms around my waist, and I will >valk slowly to the shore. Cheer upmv lad; we will go and get a draughtof wine and some dry clothes at the villa r-i iuu, and you will soon be all right." 44< >h, I shall die! I shall die!" ' Nonsense, die! You were very nftr it just now, and that is quite enough for you. Come along, come; put your arm out; that is it. There now clasp"ine round the waist with the other hand?so. that i* it- ^iake an effort to come along. Y?iu will soon be out of it My eyes, what tremendous iiglitning! Ahoy, t'.ere ?Dittibham, ahoy!?help!" cried Her bert, shouting with the voiccofa steutor, oveijoyed an_l re^trung with the delight of havingsaved two more fellow-crea tures. That flash of lightning had done good service, for some cf the old fishermen looking out from the village had caught sight of the three stragglers, aud per ceiving a lady lying helpless in the arms of one, and the other floundcriug in tho *ater, two or three men rushed down. 44Here, sir, give me the lady," cried one. 44No, thank you -never while I live," said Herbert. "Here, you may take this gentleman off my waist if you like. I hat -s right. So well done. Now, run one of you over to the inn, tell them to make roaring tires in their best bed-rooms get plenty of blankets and mulled port wiue, aud if they have no wine, some hot spirits ani water." ' Aye, aye, sir," cricd the nun, hear ing at once, iroin the decisive tones of Herbert's voice, that they were shaking to one acuslemed to command, and iu live minutes more Herbert bore his love ly burden into the little village inu. and having moistened her lips with wi*. she eventuahy opened her ej'es, and Veered the won'iS, "My brother!" "A11 safe," said Herbert. ( A gentle pleasure of the hand returned the 'ady s thanks more expres ively than woids could have uttered, and if Her bert had doubted how well his heroic la bors were appreciated that doubt would have been dispelled by some words that followed. <4I don t quite hear, ' kneeling placing his ear close to her lips. -See to your clothe* before you catah cold." 44God bless you!" said Herbert; "t will, pressing her fingers to his lips: aud then, as he covered them carefully over from the cold, he saw her gentle eye* close, and the big bright tears gush frotty uuder those long and darkly frintfud lashes. ?
