' "Absurd 1" exclaimed the first speak er, accidentally turning his face towards Catherine. ' For an instant their eyes met; she became deadly pale, nttered one pierc ing "cry and fell to the ground. Emily Sew to her mother's aide to ascertain the cense : of ber sudden illness, and the two gentlemen walked leisnrely at a distance, nnconscioua of the effect , which the sight of. one of them had produced, for Beyd hsd not recognized Catherine, so great change had. fifteen years wrought in her personal appearance.-. .a ! t :. i Emily called to the rdan who attended them, ', and having procured a carriage, they placed ber mother and the children in it and proceeded home.. A few hours restored the suffering woman to compo sure, and Mrs Gastone insisted thst she should remain quietly in bed the rest .of the day. That she had more than one reason for this, will afterwards be seen. Catherine liesitsted long whether she might to relate hrr recent discovery to Mrs. G.. but fearful of injuring her feel, ing. and supposing that all connexion had forever ceased between thst lady and Dr: Boyd, she resolved not to do so ; she could not indeed, overcome those del icate scruples, which hsd ever prevented the least allusion, on her part, to the ab sence of her mistress.' "' In the latter part of the afternoon of that day it being the one following Ber nard'e abrupt departure a stranger, ex ceedingly well-dresed and polite, inquir ed for Emily, said that he was a par ticular friend of Bernard Uetson, and that Ae latter was1 lying dangerously ill, from severe wounds received the1" night pre vious. . ' Tears startil to Emily's cyesdind trick led' down her cheeks already pale .with anxiety; for her mother; clasping her hands, she stood before the stranger in an attitude at once so. imploring and so graceful that he almost regretted the er rand on which he came. " i- "My brother ill !" said she. "Oh I tell me sbout him 1 .where is he T-bow was he wounded T" The stranger replied: "He is so ill thst be has not yet been able to satisfy . me how he received those wounds, nqr is it of any particular consequence ; he cannot possibly ' recover,, and he begged me to come and and ask you lo bless his last moments with your sweet presence.

A lamp, suspended from the centre, threw a soft light over the various objects . in the apartment. - A Turkish carpet, ottomans and cushions covered the floor, a heavy English side-board filled with glssaes, wine and fruit stood ia one -recess, . and in the otlter a light Grecian couoh, over one arm of which was flung a beaotfully embroidered red silk mantle,, aad above it was placed a mirror. . - " . Presently the door opened, and a tall, handsome man, with black hair, and a profusion of whiskers, 'entered. An, ex pression of extreme disgust and borror in stantly appeared upon her countenance, and she exclaimed with much simplicity: " ''Oh !

THE jUTSTEBJOCS PWELJJUO AU TUX IB At a wiod.whra -Ernneirlinff waa far more fashionable apd ocrat ive than at present, a large etone hoase waa erected in a south-eastern part- of the eitr by a company of these who made fortunes in this war-; Its ex asms! appearance much resembled any vtberjdweUing. of those UmesJ :it waalafge.-iqrrars -end some what ia thevDnUh fsshion, with a wood en stoop or pitxaa runnning rooad three sides of it-i . Large blinds of the original color of tbe wood, covered the windows, or what onght to hava been such, for in troth there .was but one window, the re maining places being filled with stone ; the bouse waa lighted at' all hours by means of lamps. ? There was also a stout oaken door, which to all outward appear ance answered a substantial purpose, yet it covered no entrance. It was like the window-blinds a falsity. ' ' ": All that was exposed, to the eye wss fair and differed not, excepting in jts so lidity, from many boildinirs then in use; but endenyronnd there was a' enite of rooms used for various convivial purposes ss well as for the secretion of "treasures. The only method of entering the building was by means of varions' subterranean channels, one of which had an outlet up on the sea-shore, another in the cabin al ready mentioned, and some" others less used, in various parts" of the city.'- Much irbalth had been concealed tbere, and the most vigilant efforts of government were defied. - , ;'-' '' , J - - " ' ' At length the original occupsnts of the bpilding 'disappeared after the regular course of nature, and it fell into the hands of a band of gentlemen gamblers and pick-pockets, who much preferred dark ness for their deeds. . . The apartments were large, high, and furnitihed in handsome style with one ex ception. The furniture having -been brooght from nearly all parts of the globe, would lwc formed a curious assemblage for the iunpectioa of an antiquarian. The apartment in which Bernard was confined coaUiued the only real window io tli building, and was separated from the adjoining-room: by a partition with a door of the same material, so nicely fit ting, that when elosed, it was nearly im possible fof a stranger to discover it. This was used as the place of the most perfect concealment of money or persons. It was in the principal parlor that Emily had been placed and was left by Doctor Boyd. . , .. . : " Secure in the bodily and mental pros tration of one prisoner, the timidity and childhood of the other, and in the total ignorance of each in regard to tbd other, he bad not deemed it necessary to fasten their doors. Bernard's he bail left much . .. . r , i. . , ... i. r ... ' ajar. , , ........ . Emily had been so accustomed to grap ple with realities that sho knew nothing of imaginary sorrows and difficulties. When, therefore,' she found herself really alone, with no human being near to assist or comfort, her she began to rely npon her self, and felt ber courage strengthen as she regained calmness' '-and serenity. For half an hour she sat quite still and thought of many ways by which she could at tempt to escape. . "I will do what I can,'.' said she at the expiration of that period. Pushing open the door of tbe parlor, she Derceived tbat she stood in a large room, furnished with rows of cushioned seats of an antique fashion, and a , table covered with velvet spread in the. centre..- It might have been a council chamber for. the hon orable band of smugglers, or it . might have been used for very different purposes. It did not reveal itself, but gave back, in answer to Emily's gsxe, a cheerless and solitary' look. - A lamp burned open-the table.' ' By taking it in her hand, she discovered the door by which , they bad entered," and. when opened"; it revealed" to. her the long flight 6f Wone 'steps op'-which she had been carried. She also perceived tbat at a short distance from the top'. : tins flight diverged Into another that terminated up on a platform, a From his direction pro ceeds eounds which she had for, e. long time distinctly ,heard. , .i ,wi ; : Hoping to find, a, less earful mode of escape. Emily carefully aearehed the room , for another door, Jkocidenully peroeiving the onevennesa in the partition, which she supposed to be the eater wali-of .tbe .boild iag from, its being of stone, h flew te it, regarding it as a far more natural .pgrese iuU the street.. a -. t ..-q 'l r Erertin all her strength, she succeed. ed.. after imany fail urea, in forcing- the door . open. , ..Her- astonishment, may - be conceived, whan, instead of the open street which she had fancied, she saw, extended on a low conch, close to the door, young man io full dress, somewhat bloody and apparently, in a profound sleep. -, She instantly withdrew, when tbe thought oc curred to ber that it might, be some one wounded and,, like lwrself. a prisoner. Taking tbe lamp, she again, entered the rloMt; and permitted ita -rays to fall npon the fa of Iheajeeper. :a .( n- - A slkrht scream burst from. ber. lips. bat .resolutely, combatting the effect of. herear, excitement, and auddan discovery, she placed. ibeJsmp npon. the stand, which -vsth the bed. was the only furni ture possible for the room contain, and said in a low, earnest tone : "Beraaid.-Tirar brother," awake. It is Emily who calls yon. shaking bim gent ly and rubbing bis forehead and bands to arouse bim. -:' -'r ''-"'' ' c; ' Suddenly tbe young mat started, open ed his eves. ' add ' etarei vacarHTt' about. comprehending' nothing 'tin "htswe voice of his visitor again besought bim to throw off bis stupor and recognize ber. For an instant he shaded his eyea with his hand and gazed intently at Emily, during which his recollection returned, and feebly clasping the yonng girl in his arms, be inquired how she came into tbat fearful and mysterious dwelling. In a few words she told him all: A flash of anger and ' revenge burned ' upon bis cheek." - "For my sske you hsva been ex posed to all this and I sleeping profound ly. ' Curses on the drugs which filled the water and stnpified me. ' Ten thousand curses on bim who planned this." ' "Nevermind now, Bernard," she said hastily and fearful of discovery, "You must eat something, and then we will es cape if yon csn walk, if not I will re main.' ' ' She quietly returned to the parlor she had left and brought a decanter of wine from a sideboard. Bernard swallowed some of it, and with Emily's assistance arose and found that he conld walk, but with difficulty ; indeed, he was forced to lean upon the arm of the slender child, instead of eupporting her. They took with them the 'wine,' fearfnl that his strength' would fail ere he hsd reached a place of safety. Placing the lamps upon the table, they closed the doors as before, and silently passed down the step into total darkness.' Though Bernard ' was wholly unconscious of tbe time of day, and to Emily it seemed hours since she had previously entered that dark passsge, it was in reslity but eight in the evening. All the circumstances of their ' departure had been rapid, from their fear of de tection. : - : -ll :' They bsd hurried along the passsge without speaking, when suddenly they heard the sound of voices ; approaching much more rapidly than was in their power to proceed. They hastened, hop ing in some way to escape. At this mo ment Emily felt an angle in the wall, and hastily pulled her companion into a path which diverged from tbo principal one. Feeling seenre, they paused a moment to listen. ;.:.:--: "Is be dead V asked a voice which to Emily sounded like that one which had decoyed her from ber mother's protection and which Bernard ' recognized : as be longing to the man by whom be was beaten ,.t - : . . ' ' "No. not quite." replied another, which both knew perfectly well. "I do not wish him to die, there would be a noise, he is so well liked ; but be will sleep pretty soundly, for a week to come, aud meanwhile my affairs will be arranged." "That is a pretty bird I brought to your cage," said the first speaker. "I cannot much blame bim for cheating you." . .: .' , ."Yes,' a dainty ereature," replied the Doctor, "and so timid that I did not even fasten the door. But she does not in the least comprehend my passion for her, and one cannot injure her with those large, beseeching eyes fixed npon him.". . f The speakers were now past hearing. Dr. Boy d was going to meet an engage ment of much importance, the particulars of wbich will soon be revealed. ' . Our released prisoners . ones more pur sued their way. Emily, terrified and trem bling at the dangers sba had escaped, and that she must still encounter, and Bern ard scarcely able to restrain his anger at what he termed the , "presumption" of Boyd, in daring to appropriate Emily to himself. His agitation nearly overpow ered him. The extreme dampness and chilliness of this 'channel, on wbich ac count it was seldom use 1. 'added to their discomfort, and soon visions of snakes snd reptiles began to oreep into Emily's mind as she felt the wet and slimy ground upon which they walked. , "With true womanly devotedaesb and tenderness, she, concealed her own terrors, and supported.! and cheered to the. utmost of ber strength, her wounded friend, whom a long stupor hk, deprived of nearly all, energy. Atj length they beard the roar of water, and Bernard knew. the outlet must be near. Presently tlteir .way became Qbstrncled, by a quantity of .'will ahrnbs' interming ling with stones and sand. . Hue waa a new difficulty. . Barnard sank . down ex hausted, and . Emily again prqdaced the wine.- The excitement was .once .more kindled, and'both began to dig away the, opposing substances with their bands.. A small aperture was' formed through which they forced. themselvea-,thoogh not easily. - Emerging from beneath the cliff, they found' themselves in the pore evening air, with a starry sky- above there and the broad sparkliag" ocean at their feet." -' " up 1 '"' J With maay stoppings to rest, and with much weariness, they ioead their way in to tbe city, and soon after to a carriage, in which they departed - for tbe house of Mr. Gastoae. ..'- - - " 1 yr.i : rt .

Such assertions betray gross. anil inexcusable ignorance of popu lar sentiment,' and are calculated to do mischief. Wa have a most profound ad miration for the etniarfat ability and pat riotic statesmanship of Mr. Seward,, and would cheerfully give bim our vote could it make him President ; but we hare to deal with facts as they exist, and a most palpable one to every well informed man is, that Seward cannot carry Illinois un der any conceivable circumstances. Dou g'as would beat bim in the neighborhood of 50,000 votes, and even Jeff. Davis could carry the State against him. We honestly believe that Seward could not carry more than two-thirds of the Re publican vote in this part of the State, leaving ont of the question tbe thoussnds of middle-men who prefer us to the De mocracy. Success is, a duty with tbo liepubl icans, and any man who is un willing to sacrifice personsl preferences for the triumph of oar common princi ples, is unworthy to share in the glorious destiny tbat awaits the Republican party.

The ground then on whch our neighbor founds his charge of Republicanism, is we presume, found in Mr. Bates' declaration of hostility to the extension of slavery into the territories, a doctrine of universal acceptance upon the part of the fathers of tba Republic,, and the wisest men who have succeeded them. Shall we therefore fear to acknowledge that we are a disciple of Henry Clay because of the cry of Republican? No, no! slave holders as wa are, we stand up in all the dignity of our manhood, and on the soil of our native State, having a reference to the best interests of our section, and the welfare and glory of our common conn- try, and declare with the patriotic and virtuous Bates, that we are clearly of the opinion, that Congress Aa tht right to legislate to prohibit slavery in the terri tories, and furthermore, we say with tbe immortal Clay, if wa were in Congress, and the' question should coma np. ' we "would rather loose our right arm, than vote far its introduction into tbo free ter ritories of this great - Republic" CatetA. (Jfi.) Cia-aW V ...... . .The Indianapolis Journal of yesterday has a strong article in favor of the nomi nation of Judge McLean for the Presi dency. The Journal says: . ' If. a prejudice which will defeat one man may be avoided by another who will maintain the same policy, Ts it eowardice to save our csnse by sacrificing the man ?

But it is foolish te go right on and wjth willfully dosed eyea thrust oor heads against big immovable- facts. It may be that we had better suffer defeat with bim or Mr. .

The Newbnryport Herald baa an able article recommending the selection of this venerable statesman for tbe Presidency by the Chicago Con vention. Judge McLean would no doubt maka an admirable President' if he livsd, but his advanced age is an objection, as tbe Herald' admits. ; But this Is a trifling objection ' when compared with 'those wbich might be broogh against some oth er candidates and if the . doubtful States signify their preference for him, wa hope be will be nbminatii ' Indeed we wish tbe delegates from New Jersey, Pennsyl vania, Indiana and Illinois' might meet snd confer together, tnrrte npon some can didate who will he acceptable to the op position of those States, snd present him to the Convention, and tbat the Conven tion would unanimously, adopt bim.

Tbe New Albany Tribune.' Seymour Times, and Rising Sun Visitor will also support bim with the greatest enthusiasm, while, in our opinion, rather than to sup port Seward or Chase, they would remain neutral, unless a Cosutitutional TJaiosi candidate should be offered them on a tru ly national platform. Tbe Greencastle Banner and Corydon, Argus, we are very confident, would su-k port Seward or Chase with the greatest reluctance, even on the most conservative platform, and ' not even in that cue if they could avoid it by supporting a corw servative man with any hops of success, The Jeffersonville Republican and Ye fay Reville could we be'ieve, ba counted on for Bates or McLean, but not for Sew ard or Chase.. . - , . A number ef papers in the extreme iNorthern part of the State and even is the more ultra Republican portions are Bates papers." There are so many of them that ws shall not undertake to spec ify. . ' ' .: I-' ,-.! ; - There ia snother class of papers which might support Bates or McLean that cOnld not be induced to advocate the elec tion of Seward or Chase. Ws mean the aeotral and independent papers. There are several in this portion of tba State. The press is a pretty sura indicator of tbe drift of the public mind. Ws think wa. are safe in saying that Mr. Bates is the first choice of a large majority of those Oppositon pspers in this State, wbich have bad tba boldness to express their preference. We feel certain that not one Opposition psper in the State of Indiana would refuse to support him if nominated at Chicago ; and tbe Opposition politi cian who wonld bolt hia nomination might just as well "hsng his harp on the willows."

Numerous letters have appeared in your paper, within a few months past, frona different portions of Onr State, with re gard to the nominee of the approaching National Convention to be held at Chi cago ; but I hava read none tbat, in my humble opinion, more truthfully speaks the sentiments of the Republican party of Indiana, than "A Voice from the Bloody Ninth." in your daily issue of April 9th.
