The two planned that on that very night the loug one should come under-the stern of the vessel in a boat and signal hv throwing two specimens of the Irish tuber, on board on which the metallicinn should lower those hundreds caskats of brass filled with the drug into the boat, and the long one should convey the same secretly to tho shore and dispose of it." Earnest mon; ey of twenty-fivo chekels was passed out and the bargain con cluded. That nicht the deed i was consummated, and the long one might have been seen wend ing his way through shallow mnd with a bundle containing vtho precious caskets on his back till ho reached tho shore- near the spot assigued to tho butchers of the city.
