No, for a matter of grave and tremendous national import; a matter affecting the economic life of every man, woman, and child in Spain and her dominions—the results of the National lottery. FOR THE PUERTO. In 10 minutes or so another passenger arrived—presumably from some official source—waving a flimsy sheet of numbers. Oh-h-h! We all produced our tickets for .comparison. The comparisons were odious. Not one of us had got rich quick, though our hopes were not irrevocably blasted, for the numbers were of the big prizes only. To-morrow the complete prize list from Madrid would be posted up in every lottery office in Spain. However, we did not wait for that, so the newsbringer insinuated himself somewhere behind and we started for the puerto, Forty years ago to speed in a horse bus at eight miles per hour was a joyous adventure. Our Spanish bus did not reach quite that dizzy velocity, but all the same it revived the longforgotten thrills of our youth. We felt impelled to congratulate the driver in our purest Castilian upon his noble caballos; and he smiled his gratification—or possibly amusement—-at our Spanish. As the sun set in a blaze of glory, with the imperishable citadel or Saguntum silhouetted in the cloudless western sky, we arrived in Sagnnto, where the carnival was raging more than ever. We resisted its lure, and joined our ship in time for a delicious ‘dinner. Saguntum is well worth the trouble of reaching it, more especially as it is right off the tourist track.
