MARRYING A CONVICT.
? had served twenty-five years on hoard
an East Indiaman, ?nd for the last ten
years had .commanded the I3dley oue.-of
the finest crafts that eyer floated. I was
?tn old sea-dog, who had dwelt so long on
salt water that I hud almost a hatred of
,<lrv land. . .
Oh tho 30th of October, lS'l'l, I' re
ceived orders to put myself iii readiness
to start f?r Cayrmie. I Was to transpon
""?soliliers and a convict. 1 had orders
to treat this individual well, and the letter
(.received from thc Directory enclosed,
another, with a -huge, red seal, which, J
was not to-open until between 27 and ~$
west longitudes that is, just before we.
cross thc linc.
Tile letter was a long packet, so well
. dosed upon every std? that it was im
possible to catch the slightest glimpse .of
its contents. I am not naturally super .
stitious, but lhere Was something in the
look of thc letter that I did not altogether
like, though I could give no reason why.
However, I carried it into the cabin, tind
stuck it under the glass of a little shabby
English clock, which was fastened above
my head.
I was busy fixiug the letter under the
clock, when, who should come into ray
cabin but the convict and his wife ! This
was the first time I had seen either ol
them, and 1 may say that a more pre
possessing couple I never met. The wo
. man was scarcely more than fifteen, and
as handsome as a picture ; while the hus
band was an intelligent, magnificently
formed man, on whose features nature
had never written " villian !"
His crime, to be plain, was the misfor
tune of being a hundred years ahead of
his agc He and others had attempted
something which our government called
treason, and which it punished with death.
Jr, therefore, occasioned mc considerable
wonder that he should bc placed under
my charge, put more of this afterwards. .
He hat!, as 1 said, his wife hanging upon
his arm. She was .as merry as a bird \.
.she looked indeed like a turtle dove, coo
ing and nestling beneath his great wing.
Before a month had passed over our
heads, I Looked upon them as my awn
children. EVery morning I used to calJ
them into my cabin. The young fellow
would sit writing at my table, that is to
say at my chest, which was my bed. He
would often help me at reckoning, and
soon learned to do better than I could. 1
was amazed at his ability. His young
wife would sit upon one ?f the round
stools in my cabin working at her needle.
One day we were all three, sitting in
this way, when I said :
" Do you know my young ones, as it,
seems to me, we make a very pretty
family picture. Mind, I don't mean to
ask question.'. bu? may be you have nfli
much money to spare,'and you are, both
of you, as I think, too handsome to dig
in the burning sun of Cayenne, like*many
a poor wretch of a convict before you.
It's a bad country, take my word for it.
I, who have roughed through the tempest,
wind and sunshine,- till I have the skin of
a rhinoceros, might get'along there ; but
you-I'm afraid for yotf. So, if you
should chance to have a bit of foolish
friendship for your old captain, why, I'll
tel! YOU what I'll do.. I'll ?et rid of thisj
old brig ; she's not mueh better than an
old tub after all ; so I'll settle myself
down there withjou^ if you like. -You
see 1 hive uot a living soujjn the world
to care for, or that cares for me. I want
relations, 1 want a home, L want a family.
I should like to make my home with you
my pretty ones ! What say ye'?"
They said nothingatall, but kept looking
nt each other, and then at me, ?s if they
doubted whether they understood what I
slid.
At last thc little bird threw her arms
around my neck and cried like a baby.
Hut," said she, suddenly pausing,.
u you have not looked at the letter with
that big'red seal.''
1 felt a ?jueer creeping come over my
flesh as she said this.
" Hang it !" I exclaimed, "it had slipp
ed my head entirely."
With a cold, dreaded sensation' I*went
to my chest to see where we were. 1
found that wc had several days remaining
before we should reach the proper longi
tude for opening the-letter. .
Well, there wo stood, all three of us.
looking up at the letter as If it couid
have spoken to.u?. As it happened, the
sun was shining full upon the glass of the
clock-case, and fell upon thc great staring
red seal of (lie letter.; I could nr? help
fancying it looked like ? great big'mon-.
ster, an ogre's face, grinning from the !
middle of the fire ; it.looked !
" Could not one fancy," said I, to mal^e
them laugh, " its great big eyes were star
ing out of its head."
" Ah, my love," said the Wife, " it looks
like blood!"
" Pooh, pooh," said her husband, taking
her arm slider his, " it looks like a letter
or invitation to a wedding. Cofnej leave
the letter alone if it troubles you so.
Let's to our room and prepare fo/ bed."
And oft they went u^on deck and left
me with this beast of a letter. I Terrify;
ber that I kept looking at it as I smoke
my pipe; it seemed to fix its great r<
eye upon, mine fascinating like the eye
a serpent. ltTwas red,-wide, raw,""starit
like "Che-maw of a fierce wolf. I took ir
great coat and hung it over both cloe
?md letter1, aird went upon deck "to.fini:
my pipe.
We were now in the latitude of tl
,Cape do Verde Islands-the Belle w?
rvirmhig before a fair wrud'at the rate
ten knots an hour, lt was a splend
night-the stars large and shining ; "tl
moon rising above the horizon, hs lar?
as sun cf silvermine line of ocean partir
it, and a long stream of pale, shim merit
light, falling upon the waves, which1 ?
'they broke, sparkled like jewels. I'S;
upon the ^deek, smoking my pipe an
watching-them. '. . ' '.' ' ^ '
All was quite still, except the feotfu
of the watch, as he paced the deck-ga
ing as I did upon thc shadow of the ve
sel, stealing over the silent, waters.
*. 1 love'sn?nce and order-I hate nop
and confusion. The lights should all ha\
been extinguished by this Unie; bi
wbeu I looked upon the deck, 1 thougl
I saw a little red"- hue of light just bi
neath my feet.
At another time apd place this woul
have made ? me angry j but knowing tl
light came from the cabin of my I itt!
deportes, I determined to see what the
were about.
I had only to look-down-I -could se
into the pabmthrough the'"sky.fight. .
-The young girl. was upo? ber knees
she was saying her prayers. A lain
swinging from the eeiImp lighted bx
?r?om. She had on-along white nigl
dress, and her fair golden shining ha
floated "over .her shoulden,, and alptcw
touched two little bare feet, which wer
peeping from under her white dress, s
pretty. I wasturnrng^away..; vbut pshaw
said: I, "I. am it hold-soldier ! \ W hut, ma
tera it1? So I stayed.
Tlie husband was sitting upon a Iittl
trunk, his head resting between his hand;
looking at her as she pfttyed.. She raise
.her faceto heaven, and ' f then saw he
large bluo eyes filled with tears. Sh
looked like a Magdaline. As she arose
he said i . ; "*'", I ' ^
* Ah, my "sweet Laurette, as we af
proach America, 1 ?cannot hejp being anx
ious-1 do not kuow why-b ut I feel thu
this voyage has been the.happiest part c
. our lives." * ?. - .- .
II So it seems to me," she answered, ''
only wish "rt could last forever J'
Suddenly clasping his hands in a trans
port of love and affection, he said
,: And yet, my little angel, I see yoi
always cry when you say, your prayer*
and that J can ^utr stand, fur I kuow-^ha
causes ft, and then ? fear you mu*t. repen
what you have done."
"Repent," she replied in a sad, rebuk
ing tone. " Repent of having come witl
von. Do you think because I have l>eei
yours only such a very,, very short, time
that I should'not love you?- Was 1 no
your wife I How can you be sorry tha
I should be with you, to live with you i
you are' to live, and to die with you i
you are to die ?"
The young man began to sigh, striking
the floor impatiently with his feet, whil<
he kissed repeatedly the little hand ant
arm which she was holding out.
"Ah, Laurette, Laurette! When J
think if our marriage had only been de
laved five days, that then 1 should hav?
been arrested and transported alone,
cannot forgive myself."
At this the pretty little one stretchec
out tier pretty little white arms, clasped
his head, pressed his forehead, his hair,
his eyes, smiling like a Cherub, and mur
muring all sorts of little woman's font
things. I was quite affected, arid consid
ered it ono of the prettiest scenes ! had
ever witnessed.
'; And besides," we ave so very rich
look !" said she, buring out laughing
" Look tvt my purse, one gold lonis d'or
all my worldly wealth."
Ile began to laugh, too.
'.Yes, dear, 1 have spent my last half
crown. -' 1 gave it to tho fellow who car
ried our trunk on board."
" Ah, poor," cried she ; " what matters
it ?" Nobody so merry as those who
have nothing at all ; besides 1 have my
two diamond rings that my mother gave
me; they are good for something all the
world over; we can sell them when you
like, and besides I am sure that captain
meant kindly by us. and 1 suspect that
he knows very well what's in the letter.
It's a recommendation to the Governor of
Cayenne" ;
" Pe?rhaps so," said he, who knows?"
" To be sure it is," continued the chann
ing wife. 'You are so gobd I am sure the
Government has banished you only for a
?hort time-I know they have no feeling
.against you."
It was high time that the light should
be stricken out, and I now rapped on the
.deck and called to them to do so.
They instantly' obeyed, and I ' heard
them laughing aftd -chattering like two
innocent school fellows.
One morning when I awoke I whs sur
prised not to feel the slightest motion of
the vessel. Hurrying on deck 1 found
we were becalmed. Latitude, 1 degree
f orth ; longitude, between 27 and 2S de
grees west.
? waited untiLnigbt, when I descended
into ihecabiq" ?. opened tho;letter with' a?
dull, awftil 'feeling. ' I held my breath
while I broke the gr?ai red seal and r-ead :
t: Captain, Fontainbleau; The convict,
Antoine flindscleaY, stands convicted, of
high treason against t,ae; Republie. The
Directory order that he be so.pt on mid.
ocean, and you u-re hereby instructed to
see that these orders arc carried into
effect;" J- '"' . . . . <
I read, the tetter back ward and forward,
f rubbed my eyes ; I could not believe it;
my knees smote together. 1 rose up
with a gasp as if I were choking ; I hated
myself for my. weakness. . , ;?> - ' : '
Forcing down my emotion, 4 went on '
deck. There they were, she looking upon
the ocean and he gazing at her with nn.
expression of unutterable fondness. Catch
ing his eye I signed to him to come ipjto
the cabin, ?idding fier good by, he caine
?down, his face all smiles.
1 was bathed in a cold sweat; I felt as
if deathly pick ; I handed him the order,
and he read it. together 1 with the death
warrant which was drawn up in due form, .
and attached. He gathered voice as he
finished, ?? ) f? t ?r ."
Pie cbiored'slightly," ?'rrd'boWed.'
" I ask - nothing, Captain!" he-said in
the same gentle toue that always charac
terized his voice", "no man can be ex
pected to swerve from his duty; I only
wish to speak a few words to Laurette j
and to entreat you to take care pf heryi/i
she should survive-but I hardlv think 1
she will." * li
"All that is fair, my good fellow," said
I. " if you request it, I will carry her I
back to France to her, family. /I won't J
leave her until she' Wishes to bc rid of <
me, but I do not think she wijl survive I
He took, my h*ad and pressed it, ' *
".Most kind captain, I see you suffer
more ihan I do in this busiuess-but'there
ts no help for it. I trust you will pre
serve what little property of mine is left
for her salie, . andjhat yon will take caro
she gets wW her poor old mother may
leave her. I put her life, her honor, in
your "hands. She-is (and Jiow fondly low
his voice became) a delicate little crea
ture-her chest is often affected, she must
keep it warm. And if ?she could ?keep,
the two-dianiond rings her mother gave
her, I should be so glad; but, of course,
if the morley ls needed, they must go.
My poor Lau re'tte-how pretty she looks."
It was getting too much for me, and I
begad*to knit my, brows.
V One word is as good ?s a thousand,"'
said 1/ " We t\vo understand One another.
Go to her." ..
1 squeezed his band ; he looked wist,
fully a? mc, and I added: "Stay a mn
ment, let me give you a word of advice.
Don't say a word to her about it. We
will settle the thing fur her ; be easy ;
that's my business. It shall be managed
in the "best manner."
.* Ah !" said he, " I did not understand ;
yes, -.r.uph better. Besides this leave
tah trig! this leave-taking !"
"Yes," said'1, "don't behave like a
child ; much better, much betier. No
leave-taking, if 70U can help it, or you
are lost "
I kept, my seat, I saw them walking
arm in ann upon the deck for about half
ap hour.
1 ?-called the mate to me, and when he
had/ead the letter, I said,
"Carley, this is bad business-bad
bjsitiess.' I'put it into your hands. 1
obey the orders, but i remain in the cabin
till it is over."
" How.do you. wiah.the thing done?"
he asked in a nonchalant manner.
"Take him out in a boat-; ouffof sight ;
do it asquick as possible; dortV&ay any
thing ?f-this ti?l.the.titne c?rnea."^ *
Garley sat five minutes looking straight
at me without saying'a wofd. He was
a strange fellow. I didnVknow what to
make of him. He then went out of the
pabin without saying another word.
Night came at last. 1 called Garley.:
"Alan a boat; go a quarter of a mile;
beerik!* r f r -, f: |
To obey a slip of paper1 fur it was
bn,t a slip after all. Something in the
very ajrr must have driven me on. 1 saw
him. .{ saw the yoong man kneel down
before-his ?auri? ; kiss her kuees! her
feet! her gown! I cried out like a mad
man;, A .'. '*'
" Part them ! part them this instant !
Part them-curse the Kopublic-curse
the Directors ! I quit the service ! curse
the lawyers ! ypu -mav tell them if you
will.'*., . ... -;. ' .-.V . ;
She was dragged into her berth, and
the, boat'rowed away in the darkness.
' Some time after, a dull volley came
o.ver. the sea-to the vessel. It was all
over.
F00J. madman, how ? paced the deck,
and cursed myself. All night long 1
paced back and forth, and all night long
I heard the moaning of the poor'stricken
bird.
Often I halted, and was tempted to
throw myself into the sea, and so end
this horrid torture of the brain and heart.
Days passed. I saw nothing of Laurette
I would not see her. She avoided me,
and I was glad of it. ? could not beai
thc sight of that woe-stricken face.
The mate Garley, how I hated him !
He was as cool and unconcerned as though
he had 110 remembrance of shooting the
poor wretch.
At Cayenne I resigued my ship. Go
ing to thc city, I made all arrange
ments, and took the steamer for New
York. I placed ample funds in thc hands
of a trusty Triend?and told' him to send
Laurette to me at the end of six mouths.
I could not see her until grief had lost its
edge.
Weary, careless of my fate; I wander,
ed into the interior of the State of New
York, and finally bought a little place,
where 1 hoped J should He dawn and die.
I sent for Laurette. Poor bird, I must
see her. ? could wait no longer.
One summer night I sat in the poreh
of my housej smoking my pipe and gazing
down the road. Soon the rumble of
wheels was heard, and the stage halted.
The next moment a pair of white arms
were around my neck, and the heart of
thc sobbing Laurette was on my bosom.
"Ohi you dear excellent Captain."
" Heavens! who is th it behind youl"
There stood the fine manly form of
Antoine Hindsclear, the convict.
" What does this mean ?" I demanded,
hardly knowing whether I was dreaming
or awake.
" Are you glad to see me?"
"Thank God!" was all that I could
ejaculate. . .
Lsoon understood it all. The mate
Gurley had read my heart better than I
did myself. After leaving the brig in t he
boat, he arrapged the whole affair. The
volley was fired, *but np bullet touched
Antoine Hindsclear. He was smuggled
into his berth again and1 took good care
to avoid my sight. The whole crew were
in the plot, and, thank God, ? was duped.
? sent Garley ? thousand dollars as a
reward.
I am an old man ; but I am happy. i*viy
children and my grandchildren (I call
them nothing else) seen? to think, ojd
Captain Fontainbleau isnot sach'a' wretch
after all.
QVAIKT LKOISWTIOS.*-A'law" against
obtaining fiusbands-.under false pretences,
passed by the English {Parliament in 1770,
enacts :'That:sill women, of whatever ugo,

A GOOD SERVANT.-A lady in this city
was recently praising the good qualities
of a Chinese servant, who had just left,
her, and whose departure she was some
what regretting. ;lOh,",she said, "he
was ono of* the .best ' servants that I. ever

A SUBSTITUTE FOR ALCOHOLIC DEI
-Old topers may get a hint toward
lief in the following passage of an adc
byProfessor Miller to the Scottish cle:
Every drop of-alcohol went to
braire hardened it, and produced a di
ruination of blood thither. He had
in books of travel that some of the ti
of the North American indians were
aware of this, for when they failed in
curing a supply of alcohol, they '
wont, to stand for some time on the cr
of their heads. This was a mere mattel
engineering on their part, but it prodi
the desired effect, andserved as a solu
for the loss of their whisky. Now
would take the liberty of suggestin
those fathers and brothers who wer
the habit ot taking a tumbler of to
occasionally to. assist them in inditing
mons, if.it- M-coild not be a much be
plan , to adopr the idea of the N
Amerienn Indians, and stand for aqua
of iln hour or half an hour on the cr
of their heads before they set dow;
write.
CLERICAL ANECDOTE.-A ministei
the Kirk of Scotland once discovered
Wife asleep in the midst of his homilj
the Sabbath. So,' pausing in the stci
and possibly somewhat monotonous 1
of his own oratory, he broke forth v
this personal address, sharp and clear,
very deliberate-" Susan !" Susan ope
her eyes and ears in a twinkling as
all other dreamers in the housp, whet
I asleep or awake. "Susan, I didna ma
ye for yer wealth, sin' ye hae'd noi
And I .didna marry ye for yer beau:
that the hail congregation can see. . J
if ye ha'e no gracej I ha'e made bi

effectually broken up for that day.
