on, THE TYRANTS VAULT
A SIeMAN' STORY GF r.Antx Tams.
CHAPTER lI.—CoNTINUED.
At this juncture 'Belle:us returned in
haste, and there was a look of trouble upon
ids brow. lie closed the door behind him,
;mil then turned towards our hero.
" Marie," he sail, evidently striving to
assnunts a calmness which he did not feel,
"have you any reason to suppose that your
entrance into the city this evening was par
ticularly noticed."
'"Why do yon ask?'' domtmd ,, a the youth.
"I'll tell you," amtwered Boller:1s. ••
have just come from the inn near tho Temple
of Diana, where I overheard a convert ation
between two solt'tiers who had just come
front the South:: n gate. They said that a
Greek vessel N7:l , -Len upon the ce-t , t this
morning, and that some, one landed from
her. I al-to made cot, from tkti: conversa
tion, that the king had hem informed of the
fact, and that he h.ol itan order -• that
every stranger who entered the city should
ho watched, and infelligtmte of his where
abouts conveyed to him."
" Then I may be zt.surod that I have
been followed," said our here; " for I sus
pected it while on my way hither."
"And if such te
we shall hear more 1 . 1.nn it."
" But before we for that we'll take
some steps of our own," cried lauthe.
ft Some safe bitling-place must be, round."
Alaric was upon the point of speaking
when a loud knocking was. heard without,
and a voice demanded entrance, iu the
name of the king.
"Fly: fly:" cried lanthe,seizieg her lot Cr
by the arm.
" Hold," spoke Belle:us, tt ho became
calm in the presence of this necessity. ••11
be flies he trill not c•-cape now, for our
house may be watched "pen nil luottls; and
if he is caught in the act of fleeing, a de p•
er and more deadly suspicion may fit ,, ten
upon
:Ike
Another thundering, 1,..1 k was heard,
and Beßerns started t.Nvards the c ,.r.
"We 11111 , t meet it now," he said,
" though]. Ny IS 11 I had known your cumin;
had been noticed. Linthe, you had better
withdraw."
"Not while—"
" Hush! In this I must be the judge.
For the good of him you love I Lid you
seek your own apaitinent."
AYe , " added the youth. leading her
towards the inner court, "do as he bids
you. I shall be safe enough. At all
events, I will sec you again."
Ile kissed her and blessed her; arid she
passed from the apartment just as the host
unbarred and opened the outer door. She
stopped and caught hold or her lover by
the hand crc she had left him, and, with a
heavy fear upon her heart, site asked him
to be careful.
" The thoulit of thee shall be induce
ment enough to that end," he replied.
"And now may the gods Lo with us bath."
In a few moments more llelterus return
ed, and with hint came four soldiers. They
were stout, hard-looping men, whose hearts
performed no other (dike than to furnish
them with animal life that they might do
the bidding of their roaster. One, who
wore the uniform of a lieutenant, advanced
front his companions mid gazed into our
hero's face.
" You entered the elty evening?" be
said.
Alarie he-dtated for n. moment, but during
that short moment his mind \Vas made up.
He quickly jndgr , d that any fahanad might
only injure him and he re• Aced to tell the
whole truth.
" I did," he amwrered.
"And you landed from a Greek rm , sel
tbis morning?"
"Yes"
" Then you will go with uz to the royal
Pali ce. '

and he embed hi. r;-ing e:u ti
"Are you ready tog.:" tl.e officer.
" At any moment."
"Then we further to (letairl

Alaric put on cap, and as they pa:ed
nut through tho nart,,w pa , sage Bel:erus
found an opportnnity to •ahi-per in his ear:
" Be cautious—keep a guard upon your
tongue—mention not lantho'r n.dne, nor
suffer any alln , ion to he:. !o drop from your
tongues. Let to. hope that the danger is not
gtrat."
And yet there v.-a- a tremul.,uFne4s in
his tone—a terr , r in his very breathing
that belied the word. he `p , kc. 1 - nt:l this

But Alaiic made no reply. At that m'
meta a weighty thought was upon Lien, and
Lefore he could call his serves Lack f,,r rut
answer he was 'willed out into the strict.
The ofileer walked hy his side, %vhfle one of
the.ohliers led the way, and the other two
fell in behind.

Lis loarery. the p.tith felt a c,13 chill
creeping about hilt heart as lie approached
the lair of the remorsele , s monarch?
CIIAPTEII HI.
DARKNESS AND DOOR.
Pyrrha, king of Sicily, sat upon his throne
of cold and precious stones, and about him
were a few of the Irtrdenc,l, cruel, sithservi-
ent men whom he dared to trust. He was
a middle-aged man; short and clumsy in
, taturc; with a face broad and brutal in its
empression, and strongly marked by dissi
pation and debauchery. If ho bad ever
possessed the assurance of a brave man, he
had lost it now, and his only hopes of safety
were in the willing swords about him, and
in the terror which his cruelty inspired.
The light from the three huge chandeliers
of massive gold cast a strange lustre over
the large apartment—the hcruns being here
reflected front polished mirrors; there from
pillars of marble and porphyry; and anon
taking deeper hues from the gaudy tapestry
that hung upon the walls.
" I would like to know who this stranger
can be," said the monarch, turning to his
chamberlain. " _lh—here comes the lieu-
tenant. 'We shall see."
There was a movement among the guard
at the lower end of the chamber, and pres
ently an officer approached the throne, lead
ing Marie by the arm.
" Is he unarmed?" the king cried, as his
eye re , ,ted upon the youth's tall and sinewy
Dame.
•• He is, sire. We found only a simple
sword, and that we took front him."
A. contemptuous look overspread the
youth's, face as he thus found a monarch so
fearful; but when he gazed full upon the
features of the tyrant who hail slain his
loved kindred, an expression of deadly hate
swept over his noble brow, and a keen fire
burned in his dark eye.
" 'gods!" gasped the king, as lie
caught a full view of the youth's face, with
this deep expression front the soul upon it,
'• what have we here? Come no nearer:
guard him well! Who art thou?''
Had the sword of death been at that
ulna• cat sus pr tided over our hero's
heal, and ready to fall at a breath,
he could not have curbed the emotions that
svvellcd in his soul. In all his nature there
•say: not one principle ur incentive that could
load him to low and cringe b e fore one whom
lie so utterly despised and detested. Had
he thought of the future, he might have
spoken differently; but he thought only of
the present and the past--lie thought only
of the bloody wrongs that had been done,
and he allowed his soul to Intro full sway.
"I am AL:vie," he answered, looking,- full
into Pyrrho's face.
‘• .1/(td•ic! A/uric! What Alaric art thou?"
'• Hold, sire," interposed the chamberlain,
who had been regarding the youth narrowly.
Methinks thou shouldst know that face.
He is the sun of Omens."
" Ha! Now, by the gods, I know him!"
cried the king, starting up from his seat,
but quickly sinking back again. "Art
thou the son of the patrician Omens!"
" When my noble father lived I was his
son," the prisoner replied.
'• And when your noble father died you
fled from the country?" said the monarch,
with sarcastic emphasis upon the words he
had repeated from the youth's speech.
"I did flee," was the reply.
"-end have you been absent ever since?"
" I lieLce."
" Where?"
" In Greece."
" Why bast thou returned now ?''
"To see the land of my birth,"
" Who Caine with thee ?"
"I landed alone upon these shores, your
majesty, and had no thought but to find
friend ; and then, if need be, to leave the
country again."
" And who is the friend you sought?"
"A ho , om friend of my early youth,
whose influence extends not beyond the
wall, of her home.
`.lh---a female, eh?"
Ye,a"
" And lives with the artisan Bellerus?"
" I went there to seek her:"
" And there you found her?"
"I heard of her there."
" Answer me:" cried the king, in a voice
of rage. "Ily the Qncred crown ofJupiter,
than It atlst Letter bite off thine own head
than answer me again a , thou Last done.
Who is the maiden thou bast (sane to seek?"
Atari,: be dtatc 1 crc he replied to this.
lle renminitered the warning lie had re
volved from lUiern:, and he he an to feel
that he had been to rash in his speech.
lint he bad tin choice now, If he refused
to answer, the king could easily send to the
dwelling of the mason, and thus matters
Le only made worse.
" Ftte is the daughter of Bellerus," he
finally said.
The monnrch gazed into the youth's face
fir some moments without speaking. There
\Ca, a lock of deadly meaning upon his hard
feature=, and his fingers moved nervously
over hi, knees. At length he turned to his
caamberlain, and said:
" This is a curious freak of circumstance.
Lit the young, man is like a stranger in our
city, and we mast provide fur him—at
lea , t for a while." Then turning to -Marie,
he added:
" Since I have had thee brought hither
against thy will, thou shalt be provided for
during the night."
" I can easily provide fur myself, sire."
" Aye—but we do not choose that thou
-h0u11 , 4 be put to that inconvenience. We
hove room enough, and to share• and it will
utrord us true gratification to know that
Bellcru.
thou art cared fur."
A iaric could not inistal:e the meaning, of
tliese word , . The look which accompanied
them was a sufficient hey to their import.—
Ilut he could ilo nothing now to help him
cif. Ife could rmly trust to circumstances
as they should pre,cnt themselves.
The king called one of his officers to his
side and whispered soimething into his car,
and then turned once more to the youth.
"it is waxing late:now, and we all hare
need of TC.t," he .aid; '4,0 thou shalt he
conducted to a place of safety uut t ii the
morrow."
"But, sire,•" interposed our hero, "why
s.hould you keep me here to-night? I can
be f•-und when you want me."
"We are not sure of that. But it is our
will that you remain.—Hippon, you will
, nduct him to a place of rest, and report
to me when thou bast done it."
The man thus addressed approached our
horn, and placed his hand upon hie arm.
"Conic," he said
Alarie started as be heard the tones of
that voice, fol. they sounded like a knell.—
The word was not spoken as speaks one
who leads a guest to a quiet chamber.
"Go with him," spoke the king.
Alaric turned, and was led away. In an
ante-room his conductor was joined by four
dark, sinister-looking men, who had more
the apperance of common ruffians than
waiters upon a king, and then he was
•eked by both his arms, and hurried on
through a vaulted passage to a dimly-lighted
corridor. Presently the officer, who was
Ilippon, the jailer, stopped at a deep niche,
where a guard was posted, and procured n
torch, by the glaring light of which he led
off once more.
On, through dark and narrow passages—
and down, down, down, long and steep
ways, the youth was led; and when his con
ductors finally stopped, Hippon opened a
door of solid metal, which swung out from
a jagged wall, and the prisoner was forced
roughly in, and the massive door was closed.
It was shut with a dull, heavy sound, the
reverbations being drunk up by the solid
walls as soon as they fell upon the air—and
the prisoner was left in utter darkness. Ile
closed his eyes, and then opened them again,
to see if some glimmer might not be found
to break the horrid gloom; but it was all in
vain. lle groped his way to the wall, and
leaned against it for support, for there was
no seat save the floor.
The youth was not long in making up
his mind that he had been doomed to death.
Ile knew the character of the monarch,
and that no e% il would be too CN II for him.
He knew, also, how fear could make the
tyrant more cruel than before, and to What
deeds of darkness the fear-stricken usurper
can descend.
It was a terrible thought, and for a while
Altaic was inclined to blame himself for
what he had done; but when he conic to
reflect upon the transactions of the day, he
could not see how the present result could
have been avoided. It had flown from cau
ses over which he could have exercised no'.
control without the power of foreknowledge.
lle thought . of Innate, and he wondered if
he should ever see her again. The chances
were against it, but he was not prepared to
give up all hope. He had just started to
grope his way around the slimy wall, when
he heard the sound of footsteps without, and
presently the moving of bolts fell upon his
car. In a few moments more the door of
his dungeon was opened, and titre° men en
tered one of them bearing a flaming torch.
They were huge fellows, clad in sombre
garbs, and each bore a naked sword in his
hand.
Marie recognized those garbs, for he had
seen them years before, and he knew that
only the executioners wore them? The mo
ment his eye rested upon the grim visitors,
he knew that his doom had been spoken,
and that the time for execution had come!
instinctively ho placed his band upon his
hip, but there was no weapon there. He
was all unarmed and seemingly powerless
against the gigantic ruffians. The man who
held the torch leaned it up against the wall
where a projecting point of rock helped
support it, and then the three approached
the prisoner.
"How now," spoke Alarie." "What is
your business here?"
"A foul business, you'd say, if yon knew
it, my master," replied the leader of the in
fernal trio, in an unfeeling tone; "but when
'tis done, we'll do it so well, you won't know
we've done it nt all."
"I am to die!" the youth said, with his
hands clasped upon his bosom.
"We've all got to die sometime, and those
who die first will get the sooner out of it
very wicked world. And since you know
what's coming, I suppose you'll take it as
easily as possible."
What a lifetime of thought and feeling
was crowded into the next moment! The
three gleaming swords were raised, and the
doomed youth saw them pointing surely to
wards his heart. There was no escape by
flight. for between him and the door ad
vanced the workmen of death! There was
no hope in his own strength of body and
limb, for, unarmed as lie was, the power op
, posed to him was unconquearable. So he
leaned back against the reeking wall, and
I shut the horrid monsters from his sight.
The above is the commencement of Mr.
Cobb's great story, which is now being
published in the New York Ledger. We
give this as a sample; but it is only the be
gining of this most interesting, fascinating
and absorbing tale—the balance or continu
ation of it can only be found in the New
York Ledger, the great family paper, for

I try contribute, and which can be found at
