PORTRY.

A SHEPHERD- Boy.

BY DWIGHT WILLIAMS.
Amone old Scotia’s towering cliffs
A group ot tourists strayed,
Delighted ’mid its lochs and glens,
In beauty wild arrayed,

LESSON Or

They climbed amid the morning mists
A rocky mountain side,

Which lightning bolts had often rent
In chasms deep and wide,

Still up and on, with agile step,
They toward the summit trod,
*Mid Nature’s gorgeous solitudes,
‘The fastnesses of God.
Upon a fragile precipice
At length the adventurers stood,
Which, double-walled, reached far below,
An awful attitude.

They saw, far down the ereviced rocks,
Some flowers wild and sweet;

But never hand might pluck them thence,
Except by daring feat.

One only plan would reach the flowers,
And down the chasm cold

The bravest one, girt with a rope,
Must seize the trophies bold,

Not fir below a shepherd-boy
Was sitting by his flocks,

And him they tempted by rewards
To try the wall of rocks.

They brought him to the startling brink,
But he in fear recoiled;

And none was found to try the depth—
The day’s high sport was spoiled.

At length a thought broke on his mind,
His tece lit up with hope;
“Til venture down the rocks,” he said

* If father holds the rope.” :

Down, down that awful depth of rocks
‘The father held his boy,

While he his bosom filled with flow ers,
*Mid rapturous shouts of joy.

Down clouds and mists our Father lets,

lis chain of promi
And from his holy he
His children to the

he draws

kies,

O, child of earth, with fear appalled,
When oft thy path is clett,

Though hanging on the abyss of gloom,
Be not of hope berett.

What'er his voice commands thee, do,
Nor count the sacrifice ;

Go where the many dare not go,
Pluck flowerets for the skies.

‘ather holds the rope— Amen ;’
rocks are deep below,

irless we will swing and work,
‘Till Heaven her tropheis show.

A TALE OF PORTUGAL,

To nio a detaled account of the
characteristics of the place in which the
following events took place, would be al-

the brevity of this sketch would permit,

Every one is informed of its dreary, bar-
ven, ind hiwless peculiar » and none
need be instructed that it is Portuguese ;
therefore, a plain transcription of the story
trom the old journal of travel before me
will be all-suficiont for the purpose in
hand,

In one of the most cheerful localities of
the dismal province of the Alemtejo, a few
leagues to the west of Venduas Noyas,

,| about forty years ago, stood an old stone

cross, whieh had been erected on the spot
one year prior to the event which forms

the subject of this narration, On the pe-
destal of the*eross were engraved a few
lines, in the language of Portugal, com-

memorating a horrible murder, perpetrat-
ped upon three hy ipless beines--an old man,

themselves savagely murdered, and then

found about them,

The unfortunate victims were widely
known and respected, and the story ot
their sad fates cast a shadow of deep sor-
row over the entive country,

The Alemetejo, too, became, through
this act of supreme violence, invested with
tenfold more terror than that with which
it had previously been regarded; and the
government began to put forth exertions
to overthrow the system of lawlessness
that had so long existed is this ‘* province

in is; and even ‘then, not without
their weapons of defence in their hands,
ready for action, from the moment oftheir
setting out until safely lodged on the
Spanish frontier, or dis¢mbarked on the
northern shore of the ‘Tagus,

But, as time wore on, things resumed
their former condition ; and that apathetic
improvidence against civil demoralization
go characteristic of Portugal, where intes
tine derangement s so prevalent, be-
came, in a ars lime, as tolerant as ever;
while rapine, which had suspended its
enormities for a time, only to impose up-
on the credulity of its oppose again
strode forth with floating banners, and in
all its) sanguinary traits, to make the
Ale matejo the ynonym for danger, vio-
lence and destruction,

On the morning of a day in April,
traveller—a young Spaniard, who had a
rived from the Kast, and entered Vend:
Novas the evening before, where he had
passed the night — was soon to take
s departure westward, as if for Aldea
vlega. Ile was very comely in face and
but his counte-

nance was e sucmiely p: ale, iad sterness
of purpose was traced in every feature,

Ile spoke but little, and, as if impelled
by some all-absorbiny design, he took his
way alone, following the windings of the
road, by the side of which the rude cross
stood,

Long before noon he reached this dreary
spot and stood, and, dismounting trom his
horse, secured it to a tree a short distance
and approaching the sad monument
with a sorrowful demeanor, seated himsel!
beside it upon a lar stone. Ile sat a
while, gazing thoughtfully at the inscrip-
tion on the pedests u, apparently contem-
plating the terrible munity to which it
related, and then, overcome by some
strong inward emotion, he buried his lace
in his hands and wept.

In this attitude he had not continued
long when the sharp report of a gun rang
through the quiet wilderness, and roused
him to a sense of di mnie On the instaut
he sprang to his feet like a startled dear,
and scanned the neighborhood trom side
to side whence the shot proceeded; but
such seareh was in yain—no human hoing
could be discerned. Tis lett. cheek bore
the mark of a nowly indicted wound, from
which the blood trickled. free ly, and fell
upon his bosom, revealing how near its
consummation was the design of him who
fired, He narrowly escaped the treacher-
ous intent; but nothing like fear was visible
in his countenance, Inde sed, he appeared
more to welcome the attempt upon his life
just at that moment; and evinced only an
desire to discover the author ot its
hor in that desire was he doomed to suiler
much suspense, as shall be seen,

Ile had not stood a minute when a se-
cond report Potae upon the ear, and a
second bullet grazed his face. He threw
his hands Aas his head as if in agony,
and reeling, tell to the ground, and ‘the re
to all Appearances lay “dead. As he tell
his coat flew open and reyealed a large
knife and a brace of revolvers protruding
from at belt which girded his waste; and
that circumstance would if
the thought that there was if
in his falling had: anything ocenrred to cast
a doubt on the belief that he was shot.
Seurcely was he down when hali'a dozen
nen, most wild aud desperate in appei
ance, rose from the thick brushwood
spread over the irregular surface of the
ground Co the lett of ‘the road and darted
forward with say yells toward the plaice
where they were Coufident the ry had felled
the unhappy traveller, They had evident-
ly calewlated upon a huge booty, for he
was richly clad, and bore every ‘mark of
opulence; but their caleulations were
most skillfully defeated, though not with-
‘out some sullering to the tr: aveler himself,

The two foremost of the bandits—tor
such they were—had advanced within a
few yards of their intended victim, when,
with the bound ofan mite lope,he sprang to
his fect, with a revolver in each hand, and
a triumphant smile in his eye, and before
the villains could perceive the movement
laid them in death across the road. ‘The
remaining four were thunderstruck at- be-
holding this sudden turn in the le of
affairs, and stopped slrort in the precipitate
approach, with their mouth and cyes
gzape, and their countonances as pale as
the utmost terror could make them,

Much time was not allowed them forthe
collection of their faculties, and before
they had recovered from their utter aston-
ishment into which the most unexpected
maneuver had thiown them a third of the
six had met his doom. Ope of the other
three turned upon his heels as if to flee,
but his design was anticipated, and the
unfortun Villain shared the fate of his
brothers in guilt, The two that remained
Saw nore wrer in an attempt lo esci pe
than an assault, sand, therefore, quickly
levelling their pieces, they fired, :

falling on their hands and kine rushed
upon the traveler, who, :utic ipating their
intention, darted behind the cross in time
to avoid the shots, and then discha
quick suceession the remaining barre
his revolvers at the approac hing des
dos. One of them received two bullet
this head, but the other, the more g
and farimore powerful of the two, eame
onward unharmed, with a large knile
clutched in his right hand, and a look of
extreme despuration in his face and man-
ner,

‘The traveler now was left with no ineans
of defence but his knife, which he quiekly
drew from his belt as he precipitated him-
sell towards the bandit, thinking to take
him at disadvantage while in his creeping
position; but the villain was in the e
cise of his vocation, which he had pre
tised, perh: ups, from boyhood, and to have
taken him at odds at such a crisis alter
having witnessed all his comrades fill
avonund him, and knowing his own satety
to exist in prowess and dexterity awone,
would have been singular indeed; so, be-
fore his toe could reach him, le had re-
gained his feet, and confronted him with
lashing eyes and livid lids, displaying the
mingled terror and feroc ity that possessed
him—like the tiger whieh has suddenly
been brought face to face with) the lion;
for there Was soine thing inthe appearance
of the traveler which seemed to awe. the
stalwart robber,

Death now stared them in the face—
there was no allernative—death for one or
both; and as the eyes of each searched |
those of the other, this stern decision was
read,

To asuperficial observer, great disparity
of physical power Was perceivable between
the two men as they stood regarding eaeh
other, preparing themselyes for an at-
tack, on the issue of which so much de-

5

pended; but, to a discriminating eye, so
much disparity existed; for though the
bandit possessed all the brawny strength

and iron enduranee which his rough and
desperate trade could entail, yet there was
an educated power in the well-knit. frame
of his antagonist that was capable of ae-
complishing wonders; there v a reve
lation in his eye which told ability to
economise and so wisely apply his strength
as to make himself the equal of one with
{ar greater powers, if not possessed of that
ability. The bandit feared him, and
though he labored to coneeal the fi in-
wardly trembled for his life, to sceur:

which, and avoid the inevitable contest,
he would have undertaken any act of
cowardice, The traveler rend his quaking
heart and smiled contemptuously ; but il
there is danger in the rat that tufns when
cornered, how much more must there be

at length the traveler, by dropping upon
his knees. eluded a terrilie lunge made hy
his antagonist, and closing in’ upon him
before he could recover his guard, buried
his knife deep into his lett shoulder ; ; and
as he saw the lightning effect ef the stroke,
a grim smile of satisfaction settled upon
his countenance, The robber was entirely
disabled by this act. His weapon dropped
from his hand, and he himself would have
fallen to the ground had not his vanquish-
er seized him him by the throat and held
him up,

‘This is my vengeance!” he almost
sereamed, with his face close to the ghast»
ly vissage of the helpless bandit, ‘ Yen-
gennce ‘tor my brother, whose butchery
yon cross Commemorates ! ‘Think of it |

steel from his shoulder he continued:

heart,

‘The poor wretch fell with a deep groan,
and expired immediately.
Half an hour later a party in whose com-
pany I had travelled, consisting of Don
Armano Jose ANA SO) secretary to the
Government of Evora; his brother, an
oflicer in a regiment of huzzars; two
soldicrs and a servant, came up to this
scene of carnage, and found the young
Spaniard, coy cred with wounds, lying
prostrate on the cdge of the road, where
he had fallen from the weakness ¢ aused
by his exertion and loss of blood. We
took him back with us to V cendas Novas,
and placed him iu the hands of a skilful
m, under whose treatment he re-
vered in time; and it was there, from
his own lips, daring convalescence, that 1
learned the particulars from whieh this
sketch is formed, romantic as it may ap-
pear,
Ile was out of the country, travelling,
atthe time of his brother's murder, and
did not heav of it for many months after
its occurrence; but as soon as the woeful
intelligence Was brot t him, he hastened
to his home in Madrid, from which, but
one week previous tothe day we found
him in the road, he had set out on his ex-
pedition of revenge,
Struck with the singular character of
this young man, whose ¢ general demeanor
i strangely at variance in its mild-
th the fierce disposition he must
layed in that bloody encounter,
I was curious tu know his feelings with
i rd to what he had done, and therefore
dohim if’ he experienced sufficient
satisfaction since killing the man whom he
believed to have been among the murder-
ers of his brother—in a word, if his thirst
for revenge was slaked? Ie replied with
great wi uth, his eyes flashing fire as he
spoke:
toNO, Senor, no! ‘The blood of all the
ladrones in Portugal ¢innot atone for the
Killing of my brother, Ile was the nearest
and dearest relative 1 had upon earth, and
whilo I live Til wreak yengeance on the
of the Alemtejo !?
Was not this spoken like atrue Spaniard ?
But the term of my sojourn in Vendas
