'It is of little cnii.se(U(!iiee how, hut
during the war it haiened that I had
charge ofa schooner, with instructions
to run her into the first private hay in
Viro with which I might tall in. I
was hy no means lo enter any harbor
where it was probable other vessels
might 1m! found ; and moreover, was
desired to take the night tune to eli'ect
my landing. These precautions wo'd
scarcely have been necessary had my
cargo been broadcloth, or any other ar
ticle of KiiL'hsh manufacture connect
ed with the interior or x tenor wants
of man. When, however, 1 state that
my schooner contained sundry boxes
of silver money, any a goodly supply
ofariiisand auininintion.and that these
were not the projx-rty of the recognis
ed and constituted authorities, it will
readily be under.ood why 1 sought
darkness and privacy. The task was
the most difficult that I ever was ap
pointed lo, and, save the siege of Opor
to, in which you know 1 figured, caus
ed me as much sulfering. After run
ning off and on for several days, I at
length determined to make for a little
nameless bay which 1 hud been for
fol home timi. looking out for, nnd

proved that both had leeu etpially un

who hatl httle p ason to expect better
inys-lf. 'Il-rause,' he added mote
gravely. '1 do not mean them lo have
their will. I mean lo escape, and you
sirs, may escape with me if you will,
as in these tunes it will but Maud ill
with yourselves." I looked around
my dungeon donbtiimly ere I replied.
It was a tolid .stone fabricwith a large

"1 tee siirnor. you doubt my ability to
