One stormy evening in January, a week or

with in modern houses, as if it reflected the happiness of those who jivedinit. Altogether, it formed a strange contrast to the wildness und desolation around.

* There was only one thing to which the most fault-finding person could object; this was the insuperable dislike of Mrs. lremewen _to smoking in the house. This may appear _ to you a very trifling drawback ; to me (as an | inveterate smoker) it was 00 small grievance. In all other respects she wasa most charming | woman, and my friend everything that was hospitable and kind.

‘ Alice will not allow any smoking in the _house, as you know,’ said my friend to me,

| the firss night of my arrival; ‘ therefore, [

|

have built a retreat for myself and my friends, where we can smoke in peace ; but | now that I am kept in such subjection, | only indulge in one cigar after breakfast,’

‘ He then led the way through the garden | and plantation to a small kind of building or but, which commanded an extensive view of

the sea, which now lay belore us glittering | in the bright cold moonlight of an evening | towards the latter end of Octoben On one, side was a door opening on the cliffs,through which a narrow pathway led dowa to the rugged sands,

* After this, [ need not tell you I paid many # solitary visit to this retreat, and }always the Just thing at night, for at that time | imagined | could not sleep without my accustomed sedative. | had now pro- longed my visit three weeks, and we had arrived at the beginning of an unusually wild and dreary November. ‘There had al- ready been one shipwreck on the coast, and many an hour had we watched with anxious eyes trom the windows of the hut, vessels driven before the gale, seeking shelter trom the violence of the storm, fearing every moment that they would be dashed by the the fury of the wayes among those giant rocks, which, in spite of their height, were now often completel Mhidden from our sight by dei.se masses of foam.

‘One morning, a8 we were all sitting at breakfast, my friend received a letter on business which required his immediate presence in town. After he had finishsd its perusal, he turned to me and said :

‘ I shall have to leave Alice in your charge during ny absence, and I hope you will take good care of her, and (he continued, smiling) should any wrecks occur whilst I am away, do nut allow her to run down the cliffs in the middle of the night, as she once attempt- ed to do, thinking she might be of some use. * He left us the same morning, promising not to be absent many days. ‘That afternoon the weather, which had been heavy and lowering during the few preceding weeks, was at last broken up and disturbed by violent gusts of wind, accompanied by frequent hailatorms. Towards night it grew to be @ storm, and the sea rolled in upon the shore—the great waves breaking far vutside, and mist and foam darkening the sky. When all had retired for the night, | lighted my lantern, and went, as usual,

That night was in- deed a terrible night for me; each moment _[ dreaded the re-appearance of that face, and the sound of the dripping water. Every | horrible circumstance was so distinctly pho

He had not stood a minute when a second report rattled upon the ear, and a second bullet grazed his face. He threw his hands above his bead, as if in agony, and reeling, -fell to ‘the ground, and there to ail appearances lay dead. As he fell,his coat flew open and revealed a large knife and a brace of revolvers protruding from

|a belt which girded his waist; and that cir-

cumstance would have suggested the thought that there was a covert design in his falling had anything occurred to cast a doubt on the belief that he was not shot. Scarcely was he down when half a dozen men, most wild and desperate

parish, who had left about eighteen months before for India, and was returning by a homeward bound vessel to his friends.

‘It became the sorrowful duty of Mr. Harding, as clergyman of the parish, to in- form his widowed mother of the loss of her only son, but IJ did not add to her grief by telling her of the more painful circumstances attending his death.

* You will ask what could have been the reason of this appearance to me, an utter | Stranger? I can only say it must forever re- | main one of those mysteries we cannot fathom, | and as such you must be content to take it. | Perhaps as long as the body remained un-

Of the ship in which the poor young fellow was lost, no thing was ever heard. A few planks and a figure-head, with the name of the vessel, washed on the beach, were all that was ever known of its fate. It must have perished on its homeward voyage not far from its des- tination, in one of those frightful gales which had made many a home desolate.

‘I did not, as you may suppose, after this resume my nightly visits to the smoking- room, and soon after bade ‘adieu’ to the

We talked over all these | things ; one alter another remembered some tale which added fresh horror to those already told. But amongst us, my Uncle Edward still kept silence ; not inattentive, for be was listening patiently and with interest, but | sitting back in his easy chair, gazing dreamily into the red glow of the fire, an expression of pain and sadness shading bis usually happy countenance.

On three sides of the building were windows, one opening towards the sea. I sat down in my accustomed seat, and listened to the hoarse roar of the mighty waves beating against the cliffs. I had been sitting thus stout twenty minutes when it suddenly occurred to me that the lantern, which L had placed on the table opposite the winduw, might possibly deceive sume unhappy vessel, and so lead her to destruction. ‘he scene was certainly a desolate one.

As these thoughts passed through my mind I extinguished the light, and was left in utter darkness.
