Tun rest of our story is soon told. George Shelby, Interested, as any other oung man might be, by the romance of the incident,no less than by feelings of humanity, was at the pains to send to Cassy the bill of sale of Elise, whose te_anil name all cores nded with her own knowledge of facts, and le no doubt upon her mind as to the identity of her child. It remained now only forlier to trace out the path of the fugutives. me do Thoux and she, tlius drawn to- gether by the singular coincidence of their for- tunes, proceeded iiuuwdiittely to Canada, and is tour of inquiry among the stations, where the numerous f ugutivcs from slavery are located. At Ainliersthcrg the found the mis- sionary with whom George an Elisa had taken shelter on their first arrival in Canada, and throiigh him were enabled to trace the family to Montreal.

“cor and Elisa had now been five years free. George had found constant occupation in the shop of a worthy machinist. where he had been earnin a competent support for his family, which, In the mean-time. had been increased by the addition of another daughter.

Little Harry, is fine bright boy. had been put to a good school, and was making rapid profi- ciency iignowlodge.

The worthy tor of the station in Amherst- bergi‘ whore eorge had first landed, was so muc interested in the statements of Madame de Thoux and Cass , that he yielded to the solicitations of tho ormer to accompany them to Montreal in their soarcb—ahe hearing all the expense of the ex ition.

The scene new changes to a small, cost tene- mant, in the outskirts of Montreal ; the time eve- nliig. A cheerful lire blazes on the hearth; s tea-table, covered with s snowy cloth, stands prepared for the evening meal. it one corner of t a room was a table covered wilt‘h a green cloth, is as an open writing-dea . us, a r; and over it a shelf of well-selected bfiiilis. P P.

is was George's study. The same seal for salf-imqrovemcnt which led him to steal the much- covet arts of reading and writing, am’ all the tolls and discouragments of his early life, still led him to iievoie all his leisure time to self- cultivation.

At this present time he is seated at the table‘ makisg notes from volumes of the family library he has been reading.

“ ” ssys Elisa, " you've been gone all day. Do put down that book, and let's talk, while I’m getting tea-do."

And little Elisa seconds the effort by toddling up to her father, and trying to pull the book out 0 his hand, and install herself on his knee as a substitute.

“ Oh, you little witch!” says George, yielding an, in such circumstances, man always must.

" That's right," says Eliza, as she begins to out a loaf of bread. A little older she looks ; bar form a little fuller; her hair more mstronly than of yore; but ei idently contented and happy as woman need be.

" Harry, my boy, how did you come on in that sum to-day!" says George,” he laid his hand on his aon’a head.

Harry has lost his long curls; but he can never lose those eyes and eyelashes, and that line, bold brow, that ushcs with triumph, as he answers, '5 I did it, every bit of it, my/soy‘, father, and nobody helped me.”

" 'l‘hat’s right," as a his father: “ depend on yourself, my son. have a better chance than over your poor fstlier had."

Atth moment there is a rap at rho door and Eliza goes and o in it. The delighted, " lvVl'iy -—thls you I" csl a up her husband, and the good pastor of Ambersibcrgh is welcomed. There are two women with him, and Eliza sakes them to sit down.

Now, if the truth must be told, the honest pastor had arranged it little rogramme, according to which this sllhir was to IOVOIO itself ; and, on the way up, all had very cautiously and prudenlly sllioriad each other not to let things out, except according to previous arrangement.

each other as lost. And sllhotiog beyond expres- sion is the esrnaatnvas with which every new arrival among them is met, if perchance it may bring tidings of mother; sister child, or wlfe, still lost to view in the shadows of alsvi-ry.

aoflieroism are wrought here more than those of romance, when, defying torture and braving death iiseli, the fugitive voluntarily threads his way bsclr to the terrors and perils of that dark land, that he may bring out his sister, or mother, or wife.

One young man. of whom a missionary hss told ‘I. s_:.... a I A Ar r r I - for his heroisni, had escaped again? and in a letler which we heard iesd, tells his friends that he is going back a third time, Iliat he may, st liist, bring away his sister. My good sir, is this man s|hero or criminal! Would not'you do as much for your sister! And can you blame him!

But to return to our friends. whom we left wiping their eyes and recovering themselves from too great and sudden I joy. They are now seated around the soei board, and are getting decidedly oompanionsble: only that (Essay, who keeps little Elisa on her lsp,‘occs<ionu|ly squeezes the little thingin a msnrier that rather astonishes her, and ohsiinstely refuses to have her mouth stuffed with calm to the extent the little one de- sires, alleging, what the child rather wonders at that she has got something better than cake, and doesn't want It.

And, indeed, in two orthree days such I change has passed over Cassy that our readers would scarcely know her. The despairing, haggard expression ofhsr face had given away to one of gentle trust. She seemed‘ to sink at once into the

of the fsmily,snd take the little one into her heart. as something for which it long had waited. Indeed, her love seemed to flow more naturally to the little Elisa than to her own daughter, for she was the exact image and body of the child wh-mi she had ‘lost. The little one was s flowery bond between mother and daughter, through whom grew up sequmntanceship and sfioclion. Elis.s’s steady, consistent piety. regu- lated by theconstantreading of the Sacred Word, made her a proper guide for the shattered and wsaried mind of her mother. Cassy yielded at once, and with her whole soul, to every good iiiIuence,aiid became ii devout and tenderChristisn. After a day or two, Madame de Thoux told her brother more particularl of her aflnirs. The death of her husband had left her an ample fortune, which she nerously ollbred to share with the family. en shes‘-lrml (io‘I'll'gP wliitt way who could best it ply it for him, |iciiiis\i'cr- ed, “ Give me an otiitcation, Emily; that has always been my heart's desire. 'l‘hen I can do all the rest."

On mature deliberation, it was decided that the whole family should g), for some 'ears, France, whither they sailed, carrying umeliue with them.

The d looks of the latter won the affection of the rst mate of the vessel, and shortly after entering the port, she became his wife.

eorge remained four years at a French uni- versit , and applying himself with an uninter-

' zeal, obtained a very thorough education.

Political troubles in France at last led the family again to seek an asylum in this country.

George’: feelings and views, as an educated man, may be best expressed in a letter to one of his friends :—

“ I feel somewhat at it loss as to my future course. True. as you have said to me, I might mingle in the circles of the whites in this coun- try, my shade of colour is so slight. rind that of my wife and family scarce crcc itiblc. Well, perhaps on sulferance, I niig II-. ut to tell you the truth, I have no wish to."

“ My sympathies are not for my father's race, but for my mother's. To him I was no more than it fine dog or horse; to lll poor heartbroken mother I was a child .- and, t rough I never saw her after the cruel sale that separated us till she died, yet I lmow she always loved me dearly. I know it by my own heart. When I think of all she suffered, of my own early sufferings, of the distresscs and stru les of my heroic wife, of my sister, sold in the . ew Orleans slavc-mur- ket--though I hope to have no unchristian sen- timents, yetl me be excused for saying, I have no wish to pass or an American, or to identify myself with them."

“ It is with the oppressed, enslaved African race that I cast in my lot ; un ' wis any- thing, I would wish myself two shades darker, rather than one lighter."

“ The desire and yearning of my soul is for an African nationality. Iwonta people that shall have a tangible, separate existence of its own ; and where am I to look for it! Not in Ilsyti ; for in Hayti they lied nothing to start with. A stream cannot rise above its fountain. The race that formed the character of the Hay- tiens was s worn-out, efieminnto one, and, of course, the subject race will be centuries in risin to anything.

“ Where, then, shall I look.’ On the shores of Africa I see a republic—a republic formed of icked men, who, by energy and self-cducntin

force, lmve, in many cases. individually. rais themselves abovsaeon ' on of slavery. llaving throu s preparatory stage of eohleness, iliis has at last a an acknow- ledged nation on the face of the earth—sclrnow- lodged b both France and England. There it lg in to go, and find inyaslfs poop e. “ am aware now, thatl shall have you all at me; but, before you strike, hear me. tiring my shy la France, I have followed ll , with lstuisa interest, the history of m poop in America. I have noted the skuggle tween Abollticnlst and Colonlsationist, and have re- oslved some impressions, as a distant spectator, which could never have occurred to -e as a participator. - _ — .

resent the cause o its race, which an indivi- ual has not.

" It'Euro ever becomes a grand council of free nations-—ss I trust in God it wi1l—if there serfdom, and all unjust and oppressive social inequalities, are done away; and if the , as France and En nd have done, sekuow edge our position—t en, in the great congress of nations, we will make our appeal, and present the cause of our enslaved an sufiarin recs ; and it cannot be that nice, enligteued erics. will not then desire to wipe from her sacuteheon that bar sinister which dlsgrscea her among nations, and is as truly a curse to her as to the enslaved.

" But, you will tell no our race have rights to mingle in the American republic as the Irishman, the German, the Swede. Grant- ed, they have. We ought to be free to meet and mingle-—to rise by our individual worth, Without any consideration of caste or colour; and they who den us this right are false to their own profsa principles of human equa- lity. We ought, in particular, to be allowed here. We have more than the rights of com- mon men-—we have the claim of an injured race for reparation. But, then, I do not want i't;Iwanta coun ,anationofmy own. I think that the African race has uliarities yet to be unfolded in the light 0’ civilisation and Christianity, which, if not the same with those of the An on, may prove to be, morally, of even a higher type. .1

“ To the lo-Ssxunrsoe have been entrust- ed the destinies of the world, dut-in its ' near period of struggle and conflict. '10 that mis- siou its stern, inflexible, ener tic elements were well adapted; but, as is C ristian, I look for another era to arise. On its borders I trust we stand; and the throes that new con the nations are, to my hope, but the birth ii of an hour of universal peace and brother 00 .

“ I trust that the development of Africa is to be essentially a Ohrisnan one. If not a. dominant and commanding race, they are, at

flu o2

least an afictionate, msgnanimous, and for» giving one. Having it called in the furnace

of injustice and opp:-osslon, they have need to bind closer to their carts that sublime doctrine of love and forgiveness, through which alone they are to conquer, which it is to be their mis- sion to spread over the continent of ‘ca.

“ In myself, I confess I am feeble for this — nll halt‘ the blood in my veins isthe hot and busty Saxon; but I have an eloquent preacher oi‘ the Gospel ever by in side, in the person of my besutilul wife. W on I wander, her gyn- tler spirit ever restores me, and kee rs my eyes the Christian calling and mission of or race. As a Christian patriot, as a teacher of Christianity, I go to m counti-y—-my chosen, my glorious Afiica !—an to her, in my heart, I sometimes apply those splendid words of prophesy, ‘ Whereas thou hast no on and hated, so that no man went through thee ; 1 will make thee an eternal excellence, a joy of man generations!"

“ on will call me an enthusiast: you will tell me that I have not well considered what I am undertaking. But I have oonside ,and counted the coat. I to Liberia, not as to an Elysium of romance, ut as to s field ofioorlr. I expect to work with both hands-—to work hard; to work apinst all sorts of dillicultiss and disoourafements; and to work till I die. This is what for, and this I an quits sure I shall not be ppointad.

“ Whatever you may think of my determina- tion, do not divorce me from your confidence; and thisikolyhat, in whatever lldo, I act with a heart w ‘van to m e.

George, wifli his wife, children, sister, and mother, embarked for Africa. some few weeks fter. If we are not mistaken, the world will yet hear from him there. _
