THE CAHPENTKH'S MATH. for I I j anil vi Twenty year» ago I commanded one of their vessels, the Norm-man, «»f the old Al lea worth line of Liverpool. She was in th* East India trade at the time, and 1 was tilmut to make my lint voyage as master 1 had l»eeti with her the previous voyage In the capacity of chief mute, and was more than pleased when the firm called me into their private office aud offered me the com tuarul of the ship. 1 had ju»t been marrie«!, and it is need less to say t hat I accepted the firm's offer, at the same time arranging t «» have my wife accompany me on th«» voyage. "1 have a favor to ask of you, Capt Thornton," said Mr. Burlingatue. tlie sen lor partner, when we were alone, *'and 1 rely igsin y«mr honor to keep the matter confidential." I how«*!, and Mr. Burlingame went on: **Mv daughter Evelyn has become infat uated with one of my clerks, and lie has ha«l the assurance to ask h«*r band in mar riaKc. He has Im-ch dismissed from our employ, aud I have seen nothing of him »iure. My daughter has taken the matter to heart, ami ! have de« id«-d to semi her out with you on a voyage, in the Imjie that the change of »eene aud th** cumpunionship of your wife ami yourself may bring back the roses U» her cheek. Anything you can d«* to assist in having her forget tins wretched infatuation will be appreciated." I ha«l little faith in my ability to cause Miss Evelyn to forg«-t her lover; la-sides, as I had just entered t lie marrie«! state my . self, 1 c«»uld hardly lie expect«»! to synipa thixe with a plan for tin* se (mr.it ion of two loving heart», hut I promised to care for the shipowner's daughter as far my power, and the interview terminât«*«! The following morning my wife and I went alxmrd the Norseman, which whs !y ing at ftiu hur in the Mersey. At 9 o'clock Mr. Burlingame and his daughter came aboard. The latter was a handsome young lady of ÄJ years, hut her sweet face was pale aud sad, and although she saht noth ing, It was evident that the thought of leaving home affected her «leeply. Farewells were over, the unchor was a weigh and Mr. Burlingame, after a part lug grasp of the hand, and a w bi»pere«l ad monition to "take g«Hxl care of Evelyn," *tep(»ed alsmrtl the tender and returned to shore. We were towed down the Mersey, crossed the bar, and «lUmissing our tug pilot, bore away f«>r th« Cape of Good ll«ipe. After we were well under way all hands were called aft to chtswe watch«*« Ah the crew file«l by one of their number, a fine looking young fellow, attracted my ntteu tion. ami the the of iu to SI It "Wlm is tliat young man?"
