This is the more singular from the fact that the silks of China found their way to the West at a very early period, as early, at least, as the first century of the Christian era, while the use of tea in Europe dates back only about two hundred years.
"They are much better than we are; but you don't know how to take them," said Severne, with the calm superiority of success. "No," replied Vizard, dryly, "curse me if I do. Well, I did hope I had outgrown my mania, as I have done the toothache; for this time I had passed the fatal period, the three years.
The ensuing period of quiet was longer than the last; but when again rifle shots crashed out, they were so near that the watchers on the hummock could see and count the flashes. "Seven, I counted," said Little. "What is it?" "Cap'n, there's men right beside us, along th' bank," Bill Blunt reported. "They ain't natives, neither. More like them navy chaps."
