A Lifeguard's Romance.

I ,LD Bob Huggs, as we I/\ boys used to call him, a %fo A stalwart trooper of the J||2 \ Royal Regiment of Life ,|| Scarlet, marched 7IA inside the gate of '.•«| Knigbtsbridge Barracks a f eW minutes before roll -1 to the canteen, pro- WOSS beer, and an abnormal W M Hugg s then stalked to his W&. JL purchases on the table, ■PEriaE his jacket, unbosomed in paper, the gift, pre- M of a thoughtful sweetheart. K!i roar like that of a bull to __TBabel of conversation within ■pIJS he thus unbosomed him- KSrades: 1 Look'ere, boys, K>oßgyo«tt short now.

Lpuggs received a chorus of rtpns from his comrades, as Led of the provisions with the JJ rapidity of a crocodile, and mm pewter measure at a single liordahout the personal character js of tlie gallant captivator of the U, Swilling oceans of half-and [feipghis service of over a dozen 5 had puffed out Bob Hugg's ijiiit.forporation, and painted his pwofja hue that harmonized with crletcoat he wore. fcsose was twin brother to that of maent Bardolph ; he had goggle i and a very fierce moustache, he bad never been in battle, sfrl&ggshad gained distinction jii ittUDent for a rather unique t£tfat For a bet he had drank ifootfuli of canteen porter within ajj of ten minutes, and still rc psd sober. Small wonder it was IK amorous widow lost her heart she met this par excellence (tier worthy cuirassier by name lat-fcard-Mr-Huggs's story with pof ehyy. For years Joe had jjlhe outlook for a similar haven Sin the shape of entering into btornal relations with a widow in riicflfistances, and possessed of a Igojug business '; but fortune had is yet favppred him. He asked m ' Where does she live, Bob ?' jbcedthe thumb of his right iijlfip p/his purple nose, and aig fphr huge fingers, replied, latch me a-tellin' hanybody.

and his place taken by Hunt; the latter being next on the troop roll. Hunt was a deep individual, and all that morning his thoughts were con centrated on a little scheme he had at heart.

At ' orderly hour,' being off duty, he took position on a seat outside the guard-room.

He had made certain calculations, and he was not dissappointed. About eleven o'clock a cab was driven up to the barrack gate, and the jarvey assisted out of the vehicle a wheezy apoplectic dame of about fitty. With a nod to the sentry, Mr Hunt stepped across, and addressing the lady, said: • Have you come to see Hugg's, ma'am ?' ' Hi 'aye,' answered the lady, in tones of surprise. ' I'm afraid you wont set eyes on him for some time to come. He's in trouble ; was put in chokey this morning for being drunk on sentry.' The lady looked as if she were about to faint, but was revived by a sip from a small bottle that she produced from her hand bag. Now was Mr Hunt's opportunity. 'Will you give me your address, ma'am ? and if Huggs has any message for you, I'll call at your place when I go off guard.' "VVitn unsteady hand the distressed widow pencilled the required information on a piece of paper and handed it to Hunt. Afterwards, she re-entered the cab and drove off. With an lago-like smile, Joe Hunt perused the scrawl, then placing the paper in his cartouche-box, he resumed his seat, That evening, after stables, Joe hurriedly dressed himself, and a few minutes later might have been seen hurrying in the direction of Pimlico. ' When sorrows come, they come not as single spies, but in battalions,' so thought poor Huggs, when, preparatory to being ' told off' by the commanding officer the next morning, he received a letter from the widow, who stated that she had just ascertained he was a bad character, and therefore wished to have nothing further to do with him. Regimentally speaking, Huggs had a fairly good character, and on that account got off with a comparatively light punishment—namely, seven days in the cells, and for the remainder of the month confinement to barracks. Strange to say, two days afterwards a lady called called at the paymaster's office and deposited the requisite sum for the purchase of Hunt's discharge. Hunt said the .voman was his aunt, and his comrades saw no reason to to doubt his statement. When Huggs came out of cells, he repeatedly wrote to the widow, implor ing her to reconsider her decision. To these missives no answers were returned. Wearily the poor fellow trod the desolate hoof on the barrack square, carrying a fully charged valise, and re flecting, with bitter feelings, on the downfall of his hopes. Needless to say it was Hunt who had succeeded in ousting Huggs in the widow's affections. The former gentle man was very, close on the subject, but it was evident to the men that Mr Hunt, somehow or other, was in clover. He had money galore, and usually, every evening when off duty, returned to the barracks in a state of intoxication. Three days before Huggs's ' month ' had expired, Hunt got notice that the next morning a board of officers would sit for the purpose of verifying and re cording his services, preparatory to dis charge by purchase. Hunt was prodigiously elated by this intelligence. He proceed to the canteen and imbibed deeply. While within that establishment, another tiooper treated Mr Hunt to some chf.fi', which the latter, being of the 'sudden and quick in quarrel' order of warriors, re sented by pitching into his opponent, and treating him to a severe thrashing. He also threatened to serve a non-com missioned officer ditto, who had at tempted to separate the combatants. For the latter offence, Joe was thrust into the guard-room, and next day was remitted for trial by court-martial. The court considered his offence very much subversive of good order and military discipline, and sentenced him to six weeks' incarceration within the palatial edifice of Millbank prison. At the expiry of that period, Hunt returned to barracks—thin, and raven ously hungry. His every thought was centred on the widow. ' Where's Huggs ?' be asked, with a sinking heart, and a presentiment of evil tidings. «Bought his discharge a week ago, was the answer. 1 Hunt,' said the orderly corporal, who entered the room at the moment, 'I have to tell you that the money lodged for your discharge has been withdrawn. And a letter for you which arrived this morning.' Hunt snatched at the missive, which contained a small box, in which was enclosed a piece of bride-cake and a card. . _ With a wrathful exclamation, 1 rooper Hunt flung the lot out of the window into the street. The card bad inscribed on it a certain address in Pioahco, also the words — j
