Of .-.lOh^ beautie.s the village coulJ boasl, those four girls shone pre-eminenl. We inll inlroducc lhem, Tlial queenly CTcalurc, reclining so lisUessly on lho sola, is Miss Jalia I.aiv,oii-lhe.grcat heiress She is au orplian, and her ivcallh is entirely at hor own disposal. Suitors she has ¦ft-ilhonl unralM-r; her aunrs stalely dwelling of Lawlon Hall is daily besieged by boquets and billcis.doux, bui llic fair Julia is of lho opinion thai her slarry eyes and raven ringlets would .appear lo boiler advanlage in a European draw¬ ing-room ; and she therefore looks down raiher disdainfully upon her plebeian lovers. Mits Mary Maurice, tho young lady so grace¬ fully occupying thc ottoman, is really abeautiful girl. Thoso long flaxen ringlets, and clear childish blue eyea, logether with her winning ways, have won for her ilie appellation of "ba¬ by Marv." She is tlie pot and the playthini of half a do-^en brolhers, who are all seniors, and all desirous ihai she shall never quil playing wilh dolls, nnd never confine those shining tresses with a comb. But "baby Mary" knows her own consequence. She has consulted her mirror, and it has lold lier n pleasing lalti; and, instead of dolls, she now plays a most desperaie game with hearls. That young lady in the rocking-chair, who is BO vigorously lugging al the needle with her lil- tle gold thimble, is Lizzie Linion. Al lirsl siglu you would deem ihal llie Soinerlon belles had little to fear from her rivalry ; bul, when she raises her head, and you see ilio brighi color come and go in lior clieek, and lhu mild light in her dark gray eyes, you wouid ngree, with llie village go.«ip-",i hai ".sweei Lizzie Linion is the most channing girl in Sonicruni- Lizzie is an orphan, and a poor one loo ; and, where il uoi for the kliidness uf l.er lirollier-in- law, who took ihe lonely liule one lo his own home and promised 10 lie lo lier as a Ihllier, she wouldbe dpsoliilc indeed. Do you hear thai merry laii-h frum ilie win¬ dow? Do yon see lho loe of ihal lilile slipper peeping from henealh lhe folds of the curiain ? The laugh and llie fool are lhe propcriy of -Mag¬ gie Aiwood, the greatest romp the sun ever shone upon, and a favoriie willi every one, not¬ withstanding. .She has the prelliest pair of roguish blnck eyes, and lhe must pomnig cher¬ ry lips, to be fonnd for miles around. She is the only daughter ofan invalid molher ond a dol¬ ing father- .She acisjiisl asshe pleases, ia res¬ ponsible 10 no one, gels inlo numberless scrapes, and makes a greal deal of mischief. In lhe preseni inslance, she is giving vent lo a lilile of her pent up viva,ily,by .^nging snatches of wild songs in lhe wildest possible niannor. -\ Sjiiril- od conversaiion is going on between the oilier three respecting ihc ber.ux. This very interest ing aubjecl is inlerruiUcd by llies.jiindof wheels, and a scream from .Maggie of— " Do, girls, come lierc 1 There is the greai¬ est specimen of humanity gelling om oi ihe stage!" The young ladies rushed IO the windou. A curious-looking individual was slowly alighting from the stage, Ilis eyea were obscured by green spectacles, llis hair, of a fiaming red, stood onl, on all sidesof his head, like lhe quills of a porcupine. A bright blue eoat with brass butions, and gray pantaloons, very much loo short for him, completed hia equipment. Screams and peals of iaughler from the win¬ dowa lold thnt this apparition was nol wiihoui its enect on the risible muscles of the young la¬ dies, and thc noise was Very much increased ivhen the man quietly unlatched the garden gale and advanced up the grave] walk. " Mercy on us! He's coming right in! What shall we do I I hear his voice in the hall 1"— These and sundry other c.xclamaiions were checked by the entrance of the individual in question, wlio,' howing politely to the ladies, in¬ quired for .Mr- Revere. "My brothcr-in-Iaw is not at home," said Lizzie Linion, et^ming forward from the win¬ dow; "pray be sealed, hc will be in presently." The stranger look the chair sho handed him, aud Liz-zic could do no less than scat herself near him. He made some remarks upon the wealher, and our heroine, conquering a sirong inclination to laugh al his rcmarAable appear¬ ance, answered him poliiely. Lizzie soon heard laughter from ihe uindow, and il became vcry evident ihat her friends were audibly discussing lhe viailor. " Shame on lhem !" slic menially exclaimed; nnd, perceiving ihal the siranger seemed much embarrassed, she began a conversaiion which very soon sel him completely at his case. When Mr. Ucverc eniered lhe room, ho found the trio in the window seal shaking wilh laugh¬ ter, and his lilllc sislcr in earnest conversation ¦wilh his visitor. "Ila! my friend," he e-Yclaimed, "I am hap¬ py lo see you. Lizzie, this is Theopbilus Hoggs, a college chum of mine, nnd a highly valued friend. Introduce him to your compan¬ ions." Poor Lizzie perfornieo, with inliiiiie grace, the nol very enviable task of inlroducing Mr. Boggs lo Ibc proud village beniilies, who rciurn¬ ed hia low bow wilh a scornful- curl of lhe lip. Mr. Revere led off liis friend lo his office, on business malters, bm s.opped al llie duor Io whisper lo Lizzie, " Mr. Boggs is a schoolmas¬ ter from New England. I hope yon will pay him every allenlion." When Lizzie communicated lliis jiiecc of in¬ formation lo her visilors, ihey declared, wiih one voice, thai il waa shameiul for Mr. Rclcre lo makeEuch a fuss wilh amereschoolniasler. Miss Julia, will, a loss of lhe head, "ivonder- cd what till, world was coming lo, when vulgar Yankees were alloweil lo mix in genleel socie¬ ty." " He is not vulgar," rciorlcd Li-/.zie, "though he has an ugly namo, and is not very proposseas¬ ing in appearance ; yci hia conversaiion belo- kenshim ngentlenian," "Iwonderif he is to stay here altogether," aaid Mary Maurice, " I know my l)rolher won't let me come here losee you, Lizzie, iliiedoes." "Why, Lizzie," cried Maggie Aiwood, "how could you keep yonr countenance, witli those grcal green eyes slaring al you nil the lime ! And audi huir, snd such a shocking coal!" And the merry girl Ibmg herself on llie chair, laugh¬ ing heartily. The gentleman soon relurned, and Mr. Re¬ vere apologized lor leaving his guest lo .he len- .<ler mercies of ,l,e young ladies, as he had promised his wile to spend ihc aliernoon with hor, in a visil lo a lady who lived len miles from Soraerton. An awkward pnuao lollowed his deparlure. Mr. Boggs essayed to draw Miss I.awion into a conversation, but iier cold sneer and reserved manners chilled him into silence. Mary Mau- rice had thrawn herself upon the rug, and was huaily caressing thc kitten, whon Mr. Boges, drawing his chair close lothe fire, remarked up¬ on the beauty of the animal, and inquired whether she was fond of pets. She shook back thc cloud of ringlets fromher fair forehead, and, gazing childishly up in his face, made him no answer. Mr. Boggs repeated hia remork in a louder voice, thinking that perhaps the young lady might be deaf. A silvery laugh was hia cnly anawer, and ' baby Mary' turned to the kiiten again. Almoat deapairing, Mr. Boggs approached thc piano, where Maggie Aiwood was aeated rat- ihngover lhe keys. Shc inqmrcd if hc liked music, and, upon his answering in the alTirma- iivo, volunlecrcd lo play for him. Ho was evi¬ dently gratified, and, when thc piece was ended, was about to nsk for another, when lho lively 6irl, wheeling herself around on the piano stool, a,ked ifbe know the name of that piece. In duty bound, he was anxious to know, and Mag. f."T^, T^.i ". ">'" "" '"" f-x^i^. vociferated. The Redhead's Mareh," and left the instru- mcnt. Lizzie was very muclimortificd m her friend's rudeness, and poor Mr. Roggs seemed quite hurl. It waa a relief to all panics when a ser- vent entered to announce tlmt tea wag ready. Lizze did the honors of the table, and endea- vored to draw (ter friends into conservation. Ai The water streuined down over Lizzie's dress, and the broken glaas nestled amid the rich braids of her hnir; but she set everything to rights wilh her accusiomed aweetnesg, soothed ifie frightened child, and reaumed her seat at lhe table as though nothing had happened. After this mishap, the ico seemed broken, thc girls talked glibly ; but it would have heen far better had ihcy beon silent. Julia compliiined about par-vetius, and talked very wiaely about schoolmnstera. Maggie AlA*ood turned the con¬ versation upon gentlemen's dress aud wondered t-heihcr il were the fashion to wear blue coals, nnd metal buttons; wl::!c Mory, with grent 7iaii'f/[*, turned tn Mr. Boggs and nsked him what waa the price of green spectacles. Mr. Bo-Tgs, protesting his supreme happiness iu btiug able to gratify her curiosity, informed her of the place where hia own wero procured, and gave her the exact cost ofthem, at thesame lime gravely hoping she might never he so un- Ibriunate aato need ihem. This last anily some¬ what abashed the young lady, who hung her head and said not another word. Immedialely after, Julia Lawton rose from the tnble, and, followed hy the rest, led the way to tlie parlor. Very soon, lo Lizzie's great surpriae, the girls asked for their bonnets, although they had pur¬ posed spending the evening with her; and, tliough she begged them not togo, she was soon left alone wiih Mr. Bogga. New, a tele a-tcte wuh a gentleman was Liz¬ zie's aversion; but shc soon discovered Mr- Boggs to be as difierent from the Somerton beau.v, in intellect and wit, as he waa in appear- ancc- Tiie hours flew hy very pleasantly, and il Liz¬ zie u-a.^ pleased wiih Mr. Boggjj' converEniion. he was eqnally charmed with her sprightly re¬ marks, Lizzie possessed the lacuIty, as ngrcea- hie aA it is rate, of being nn intelligent listener. Every pafising thought and feeling was pictured on hc-r glowing face; and, before the evening waa over, I\Ir. Boggs was decidedly in love. When Lizzie laid her head on her pillow that night, sho .thought of Mr. Boggs. not as thc yreen Fpcctacled, blue-coated, red-haired stran¬ ger, hut OS an agreeable and highly intelligent man, for whom shD already felt a friendahip that might ripen into love. "Wha:! love such an ugly nian ! wed a Mr. Boggs!" whispered Pride, But he is so inieiligent, so noble in his every thought, I could love him for his worth," chim¬ ed in Conscience. Tho next morning, as Lizzie waa entering the Ilnge store 10 make a few purchases, the splen¬ did equipage of Mrs. Lawton whirled up to thc door, nnd Miss Julia alighted. A hearty greet¬ ing passed hetween the two friends, Julia ex¬ claiming— " f.,izzie, you are thc very one I want to see. I have a whole budget of news to unlold to you. Lasl evening, when we were all laughingai Mr. Boggs' descent from the stage, little did I think ihat there was a distinguished foreigner in the same vehicle, gazing intently at us all the time. He is an Italian count, young, rich, and hand¬ some, uud he has taken rooma at the Widow Markley'a. I saw him pasa the HaU thia morn¬ ing, and he looked so handsomely, in his sporfs- man's dress, iliat I lost my heart directly.— Aunt is going to give a grand dinner party, ar.d invite all the village, so I came down to the store to order gluss and china, nnd I want you to go home with me to help." Here wc must observe that no party was ac- counicd complete unlesa Lizzie had n hand in ilie arransements, and a wedding waa but half a wedding if l^izzic were not the bridesmalJ. As Lizzie sai in the carriage beside her friend, she could not help remonstrating with Iter on her imprudence in falling in love with an entire stranger, and imjuircd whai Mrs. Lawton thought of the affair. "Oh; Lizzie," Julia replied, *'you knowl am misiress aihome, and my aunt is so an.\ious to be rid of niC, that she would marry me to a schoolmaster, if he tiid but offer himself." Our fair friends were soon ensconced in the study, raaking out a Jist of invjiations. " Shall I put down Mr. Bogga, ihe erudite Theophilns?" Julia asked, rather mischievously- " Certainly," was Lizzie's blushing reply.— '* He is. my brother's guest; ond, in my opin¬ ion, is as worthy of attention as your count wiih lhe upronounccable name." "Ilis name is perfectly euphonious," said Julin, tnrtly, " which U noi the case with every one's. I have ii nt my longuc's end—Joachim Mnraschiiiodelopodi. I have been brightening up my French, OS I understand bespeaks our language very imperfectly. Oh dear I only think, I liavc put down his name instead of Maggie Atwood's, in her invitation. I would not hnvc her to know of my intentions for the orld; it would hc all over thc village before dinner-time." TllC days soon sped away, and ihat of the grand dinner-party orrived. Lizzie Linton sim¬ ply nitircd in a clear muslin, with no ornament in her rich brown Iiair save a single rosebud, en¬ tered thc magnificent drawing-room at Lawton Hatl, leaning on the arm of Mr. Boggs, whose brass buttons shone brighter than ever on thai dctestabie blue coat. At the upper ond of the room stood Julia, in earnest conversation with the count. Lizzie thoughi she had never seen her friend look so peerlessly beautiful. Her splendid figure was arrayed in a crimson velvet, which contrasted well with her dark complejcion. Pearla gleamed amid her raven trcases, and a single diamond sparkled on her bosom. The coiini wns tall and slender, with long cur¬ ling hair, aud a most ferocious mustache, which gave a very frightful look to hia countenance. It wna evident that Julia wos enraptured with ilis conversation, although thc bystanders could discover nothing but a few hackneyed complj- ment,s to this fair hostess, and a great deal oi ex travngant praise ol Count Jonchim Maraschin- odelopodi. Julia introduced Lizzie to Iiim. The count stared at her through his glass, stroked down his mustache, and took no other notice of the blushing girl than by aaying to Julia, m a voice meant to he very terrible— *' Vewy lolewablo for America, mails in Eu¬ ropo, aw '." Tlie Somerton beaux, although most of them heard thia decision, did not appenr to set much ! value on it, lor Lizzie was decidedly the belle of the room. Once during the evening Mr. Boggs chanced to be standing near Miss Lawmon and thc count, A'hen the lady let lall hcrhai.dkerchief. Seeing hat the count waa not inclined to pick it up, Mr. Boggs very poli.ely handed it to ita fair owner, when';JGachim, &:c., looking very fiercely on tiie spectacles, ejaculated, *' Aw ! de puppy 1 Inmy conlrte, dc ladies, ven dey drops dere mouchoirs, ring de bell for the aervant to pick dem up." To which vnluable piece of informa¬ tion Miss Julia replied hy a most benignnnt smile. The party passed ofi", as all puriies do, with a great mnny compliments, aome torn dresses, a few broken glasses, and not a few heartaches. The ne.vt morning it waa reported ihrough the village that Mias Lawton was engaged to thc count, ond the news was "confirmed by Julia herself, who came to Lizzie Linton to be con- graiulalcd. The count and hia^aHcec were now to be dai¬ ly .seen driving at a furioua rate through the vil¬ lage, or walking most romantically over the beautiful hills among which it is embosomed. The countess elect h?d dropped, at her lover's command, al her'village ocquaimances save Lizzie Linton. He had even wished to include her with the rest; but Julia, who had a liitle ofj her old spirii remaining, insiated ao vehememly ' on retaining hor friendship, that Joachim was ! obliged to yield. The count was extremely desirous that their marriage should take place immediately; but here again he waa overruled, aa, according to Julia's idea, no one could marry them but the bishop, and it would bc some time before he could viflit the village. In ihc mean time, prep¬ arations went on rapidly, and numeroua were thc rumors respecting the bridul cake. Huge boxes were continually arriving ot Lawton Hall; the drawing-room was being entirely fitted up with new velvet furniture, and magnificent Ince curtains were purchosed for the windows. All thc villagers stared aod wondered, and were no wiser than before. But this grand wooing waa not the only one going on in the villftge. Mr. Bogg'a talents, his manifold good qualities, were making, slowly, but surely, a deep wound in Liizie's heart.— Hii awkwardneas, his uglineia, bii name, w«ra snhaequeiiUy took paecogo on buard'the flchooii> or Providence, Capt.

W)i3 Ciuiveyed to Monouguhelu city, and mony was tho very aame that wns to see Julia j Lawton metamorphosed into an Italian countess ' Miss Lawton was to be married in the morning J and her aunt alone was to witness the ceremony;' while Lizzie's nuptials were lo bo celebrated in j the good old-fiishioncd style, al eight o'clock in the evening and thc whole village to bc invited. Tho wedding morn at leugtii arrived. A large tiavelittg carriage was seen sianding in front cf, Lawioii Hall. Trunks, large and small, were | piled upon it, nnd the villagers whispered thnt 1 the newly married fair were to start for Europe ' immediately nfter the ceremonj. A crowd of hoys and idlers wna collected on thc lawn, all | anxiou.'* to get a peep at life bride. Al nine ! o'clock the count, in his bridal auit. dashed up to the door. On this eventful morning he looked even fiercer than ever; and, Hinging ihc | reins to the servant, he sprang from his horse and ran up to the hall steps, casting a contempt¬ uous glance on the crowd of villagers. "Now," ihoughi they, "we shall soon see the bride." But they were doomed to be dis¬ appointed. Scarcely had thc count banged the door behind him, when Mr. Revere, his horse all in a foam, came cantering up the avenue,— He hastened into the house ; and soon two or three servants came forth. One was eent for the doeior, another for Lizzie Linton, and a third for a constable. Before dinner-time ihc news was oil over the village. It seems that Mr. Revere, suspecting all was not right, made some inquiriea respecting the count, and had discovered ihni be was an apprenlice to a French hair-dresser; and that, having heard of Julia's venckant for foreigners, he had absconded wilh some of his master's money, and hnd succeeded in palming himself upon the infatuated Julia and her credulous aunt as an Italiau count. Surh a scene at Lawton HaH! Miss Julia in a towering | passion, her aunt in strong hysterics, the countj arrested for robbery, and sweet Lizzie Linton I flitting like an ange! of mercy ihrough that disor-, dcrly mansion. The trunks werein'ken from the I carnage, thc count conveyed to ihc city, and Ju¬ lia hid her throbbing head on Lizzie's bosom, and told how shc was humbled. The villagers were astounded at this unexpect¬ ed revelation, but were confident they would not bc disappointed in Lizzie Linton's wedding —that they were sure of. But, ou the afternoon of ihoi day, Mr. Boggs suddenly disappeared, and they began to fear that Lizzie, like Julia, would be a deserted bride. Mr. Revere shook his head, and said it waa very strange, and Liz¬ zie had a good long cry in her ovvn litile room. The bridesmaids came in and whispered their fears. Lizzie must dresa, at any rate, so that, if tho man did come, the company might not he kept waning. The'greai clock on the stairs siruck seven bs Lizzie plnced the last orange-blosfom in her hair. As ahe turned from the mirror, heaving a deep sigh, a carrioge drove up to thc door. Some of the company, of course. No, it was Mr. Boggs' voice that eounded ihrough the haH. Some one tapped at thc door. It was Mra. Revere, w-lio told her that Air. Boggs wished tosee her. " Wbat can he want at such a time T' the bridesmaid exclaimed. Lizzie tremblingly descended ihe stairs; but, upon en¬ tering the parlor, she saw no Mr. Boggs, but a gentleman of strikingly handsome appearance Was atanding near the door. Supposing him to have business with her brother, she said, iialf aloud— "I thought they told me Mr. Boggs was here." "And he is here, dear Lizzie!"'replieda well ' known voice. Lizzie stood still, her eyes fixed -upon the stranger; but she sought in vain for the red hair and green spectacles. This Mr. Boggs. had dark curling hair of his own, and eyes ihat seemed to read her every thought. *'I heg pardon, dearesi. for thc deception I have practiced. My name is not Boggs, but Chorlcs CHfton. I am no Yankee schoolmas¬ ter; although, asl .im n resident of Boston, and Trofessor in College, I know not how far I nm entitled in the name. Forgive me for de¬ ceiving you so long; I wished to see how far real orth, accompanied by ugliness and lowness, would go to gain a pure henrt. I felt sure that whoever loved Theopbilus Boggs would love him for himself alone. Will you accept me os his substitute ?" Lizzie did not say no ; but she did sny— " Oh ! Thc—Charles, I mean, why did you leave me this afternoon ? I wos so afraid you were not coming back again." " Tnat, Lizzie, is soon explained. I icent this afternoon to the city to bring my mother nnd sisters to aee you, Lizzie ; and I Knew, if I told you beforehand, you would be asking a hundred questions, and would manage to discover my se cret." " May w-e come in ?" soid one of the brides maids, who were oll dishonorably listening a' thedoor; " the minister is waiting." ' But the minislerKlid not wait long ; nnd snon young Mrs, Clifton was chiding Mr. and Mrs. Revere, who hnd been in the pecret allthe time. Aa Ibr thc moihcr-in-Iaw, shc was so charmed with her new daughter that she declared, if she had known whnt a pcnrl Charlie had hid in this little villnge, she would havs betrayed his secret long before. Ol course, Maggie, Mary, and Julia mode suitable apoligies for their rudeness to the ci-de¬ vant Boggs. Julia, having verified the proverb that "all is not gold that glitiers," lived and died an old maid; while sweet Lizzie Linton, as we musf call her, in her happy relation as wife nnd moth¬ er, fully recognizes that The rank is hut the guinea's stamp, The man's the man for a' that." through thutplHce'in the diiectiou of hin home, Coruner Best sumniuned u jury on Friday, ond held an imjuetil on the body uf yuuug WiUon.

The fri^jhi-! ful difUBter had bcon witncBsed from the ship, nml the waale-buat wus culled iulu rejidiitca-'^ and soul to their relief. The distance from the ship was about-six milea. As aoou as the w;,fie boatutrived, the crews were divided, amt it waa dt'loimined to pursue lbe aame whale, and mako uuother attack upon hiui. Accordingly they fleparnfed, and proceeded a' acme distance IVum each other, aaia usual on sucb occasions, after the whulo. In a ebon time they came ujt lo him, and prepared to give him baiile. The waste-boat, commanded by the first matp, wa.s iuadv/iuce. As poou as tho wh'iJo perceived the demuuHtnitinu being made upnu hini, he turned hi.s course, auddenly, and making a tre- mendnus dash ut thia bout, seized it wiih.his wide-spread jaws, and crushed il into utnint;, al- low'Ug Ihc men barely time lo pscnj'c his ven¬ geance by throwing themselveg into the ocean. Capt.

Fortunately the moiister came up aud pasaed them ut a bIkuI ili.-tauce.— The bo'it ibon muilc her w.iy u> lho ship and Ihuy ull got on buard in sufely. After reaching lbe ahip u bimt was deapalrh- ed fur the oara of tho demolished bouts, nnd ii wus determined to pursue lho whale wJUi the sbip. As soou us lbe bout relurned wiib the oars, sail wu.-i set, and tho ship proceeded after the whale. In a abort time she overlook him aud ft lance was ihrowu into hia bead. Tbe ship passed on by him. and immediately alter- ward they discovered that tho whale was mak¬ ing for the «l)ip. As ho camo up near lier, they hauled to tho wind, and sufi'ered the monster to pass her. After he had fuirly paased, thcy kept oir lo overtake and attnck him again, When tho ship had reached wilbiu ubout (ifty yarda of him. they discovered that the whale had seuled dowu deep below the surface of the water, uud as it was uear sundown, tliey concluded togive up tho pursuit. Cupt Debois was at lhia lime stauding in the night.hend.s on the lurboard bow, with craft in haml, ready lo.ilrikeihe ujoufllcra demJly bhnv should ho appear, the ship moving about five knots, when working on the side of the ship, he di.'icnvpre.l tho wbale rushing townids her at tho rate of fifteen knots ! In an imtmit, (It ster.ttvitckIhe.ihtp icithttemcndons vioknre, shaking ker from stem lo stern .' She quivered under the violence of tho shock asif she bud struck a rock. Capt. Debois immedialely descended inio lbe forecastle, and there, to hia Imrror, discovered that the monster had struck tho ship about two feet from tho keel, abreuBt the fyremasr, knock¬ ing a great holo entirely through her bnttom, tlirough which the water rushed and roared im¬ petuously ! Springing to the deck, he ordered the mate to cut luvny tho anchors aud get the cables overboard lokecp lho Bbipjrom sinking. 98 she had a large quantity of pigiron on boaiil. In doing this, tho mate succeeded in relieving only nno anchor and cable clear, the other iiav¬ ing been fastened around tho foremast. The ship was then sinking rapidly. The Captain weut to tho cabin, where ho found thteo feet ol water; he, however, succee.'ed in procuring a chronoineier. sextant and chari. Reaclii ng the decks he ordered the boats to be cleared uway, and to get water and provisions, as the ship was keeling over. Hr agai n desconded lo ibu cabin, but the wuler was ruabing in ao i-ajiidly thai he could procure nothing, lie camo upon deck, ordered all hands into the boots, mid was the last himselftoloaveiheship. which hu did by throwing himaeU into the sea and swimming to the nearest boat.' Tho ship wnn an her b.-nm end, her topgallant yards under water. Tbey then pushed off somo distance from lho ship, expecting her to sink in u very ahoii time.— Upou an examination of the storea ihey had been nble to save, he diacovered that they had only twelve quarts of water, and uotamoulhful of provisions of any kiud i The boats contained eleven men each ; were leaky, nnd night com¬ ing on, thoy were obliged In bail them all night lo keep lhem frnm sinking ! N'axtday, at daylight, thoy returned to the ship, HO one daring to venture un board bnt the captain, their intention bbing to ciii nway the masts, and fearful that tho moment llmt the masts were 'mt away the ship would go down. With a siugln hatchet, the captain weut on board, cut nway the mast, wheu the ship righted. The boats then cume lip, and lha men, by tbo snle uid ol spades, cutaway tho chain cable from the foremast, which got the ship uearly ou hor keel, The men theu tied ropes round thei; bodiea. got into the seo, and cut a hole through the decks to get out provisions. They could procure nothing but abont five gallons of vinegar und twenty pounds of wet bread. The ship threat¬ ened to sink, andthey deemed it imprudLut to remain by her longer, so thoy set sail in their boats and left her. On the 22d of August, nt about five o'clock, P. M., they had the indescribable joy of discern ing a ship in the distance. They made signal! and were soon answered, aud in a short time they wero reached by lhe good ship Nantucket, Maas., Capt.

merry party of young ladies were asi n cozy liule room, froniing llic strcei ;«ir W. oflho village uf Somcr.on. Of .-.lOh^ beautie.s the village coulJ boasl, those four girls shone pre-eminenl. We inll inlroducc lhem,
Tlial queenly CTcalurc, reclining so lisUessly on lho sola, is Miss Jalia I.aiv,oii-lhe.grcat heiress She is au orplian, and her ivcallh is entirely at hor own disposal. Suitors she has ¦ft-ilhonl unralM-r; her aunrs stalely dwelling of Lawlon Hall is daily besieged by boquets and billcis.doux, bui llic fair Julia is of lho opinion thai her slarry eyes and raven ringlets would .appear lo boiler advanlage in a European draw¬ ing-room ; and she therefore looks down raiher disdainfully upon her plebeian lovers.
Mits Mary Maurice, tho young lady so grace¬ fully occupying thc ottoman, is really abeautiful girl. Thoso long flaxen ringlets, and clear childish blue eyea, logether with her winning ways, have won for her ilie appellation of "ba¬ by Marv." She is tlie pot and the playthini of half a do-^en brolhers, who are all seniors, and all desirous ihai she shall never quil playing wilh dolls, nnd never confine those shining tresses with a comb. But "baby Mary" knows her own consequence. She has consulted her mirror, and it has lold lier n pleasing lalti; and, instead of dolls, she now plays a most desperaie game with hearls.
That young lady in the rocking-chair, who is BO vigorously lugging al the needle with her lil- tle gold thimble, is Lizzie Linion. Al lirsl siglu you would deem ihal llie Soinerlon belles had little to fear from her rivalry ; bul, when she raises her head, and you see ilio brighi color come and go in lior clieek, and lhu mild light in her dark gray eyes, you wouid ngree, with llie village go.«ip-",i hai ".sweei Lizzie Linion is the most channing girl in Sonicruni-
Lizzie is an orphan, and a poor one loo ; and, where il uoi for the kliidness uf l.er lirollier-in- law, who took ihe lonely liule one lo his own home and promised 10 lie lo lier as a Ihllier, she wouldbe dpsoliilc indeed.
Do you hear thai merry laii-h frum ilie win¬ dow? Do yon see lho loe of ihal lilile slipper peeping from henealh lhe folds of the curiain ? The laugh and llie fool are lhe propcriy of -Mag¬ gie Aiwood, the greatest romp the sun ever shone upon, and a favoriie willi every one, not¬ withstanding. .She has the prelliest pair of roguish blnck eyes, and lhe must pomnig cher¬ ry lips, to be fonnd for miles around. She is the only daughter ofan invalid molher ond a dol¬ ing father- .She acisjiisl asshe pleases, ia res¬ ponsible 10 no one, gels inlo numberless scrapes, and makes a greal deal of mischief. In lhe preseni inslance, she is giving vent lo a lilile of her pent up viva,ily,by .^nging snatches of wild songs in lhe wildest possible niannor. -\ Sjiiril- od conversaiion is going on between the oilier three respecting ihc ber.ux. This very interest ing aubjecl is inlerruiUcd by llies.jiindof wheels, and a scream from .Maggie of—
" Do, girls, come lierc 1 There is the greai¬ est specimen of humanity gelling om oi ihe stage!"
The young ladies rushed IO the windou. A curious-looking individual was slowly alighting from the stage, Ilis eyea were obscured by green spectacles, llis hair, of a fiaming red, stood onl, on all sidesof his head, like lhe quills of a porcupine. A bright blue eoat with brass butions, and gray pantaloons, very much loo short for him, completed hia equipment.
Screams and peals of iaughler from the win¬ dowa lold thnt this apparition was nol wiihoui its enect on the risible muscles of the young la¬ dies, and thc noise was Very much increased ivhen the man quietly unlatched the garden gale and advanced up the grave] walk.
" Mercy on us! He's coming right in! What shall we do I I hear his voice in the hall 1"— These and sundry other c.xclamaiions were checked by the entrance of the individual in question, wlio,' howing politely to the ladies, in¬ quired for .Mr- Revere.
"My brothcr-in-Iaw is not at home," said Lizzie Linion, et^ming forward from the win¬ dow; "pray be sealed, hc will be in presently." The stranger look the chair sho handed him, aud Liz-zic could do no less than scat herself near him. He made some remarks upon the wealher, and our heroine, conquering a sirong inclination to laugh al his rcmarAable appear¬ ance, answered him poliiely. Lizzie soon heard laughter from ihe uindow, and il became vcry evident ihat her friends were audibly discussing lhe viailor.
" Shame on lhem !" slic menially exclaimed; nnd, perceiving ihal the siranger seemed much embarrassed, she began a conversaiion which very soon sel him completely at his case.
When Mr. Ucverc eniered lhe room, ho found the trio in the window seal shaking wilh laugh¬ ter, and his lilllc sislcr in earnest conversation ¦wilh his visitor.
"Ila! my friend," he e-Yclaimed, "I am hap¬ py lo see you. Lizzie, this is Theopbilus Hoggs, a college chum of mine, nnd a highly valued friend. Introduce him to your compan¬ ions."
Poor Lizzie perfornieo, with inliiiiie grace, the nol very enviable task of inlroducing Mr. Boggs lo Ibc proud village beniilies, who rciurn¬ ed hia low bow wilh a scornful- curl of lhe lip. Mr. Revere led off liis friend lo his office, on business malters, bm s.opped al llie duor Io whisper lo Lizzie, " Mr. Boggs is a schoolmas¬ ter from New England. I hope yon will pay him every allenlion."
When Lizzie communicated lliis jiiecc of in¬ formation lo her visilors, ihey declared, wiih one voice, thai il waa shameiul for Mr. Rclcre lo makeEuch a fuss wilh amereschoolniasler.
Miss Julia, will, a loss of lhe head, "ivonder- cd what till, world was coming lo, when vulgar Yankees were alloweil lo mix in genleel socie¬ ty."
" He is not vulgar," rciorlcd Li-/.zie, "though he has an ugly namo, and is not very proposseas¬ ing in appearance ; yci hia conversaiion belo- kenshim ngentlenian,"
"Iwonderif he is to stay here altogether," aaid Mary Maurice, " I know my l)rolher won't let me come here losee you, Lizzie, iliiedoes." "Why, Lizzie," cried Maggie Aiwood, "how could you keep yonr countenance, witli those grcal green eyes slaring al you nil the lime ! And audi huir, snd such a shocking coal!" And the merry girl Ibmg herself on llie chair, laugh¬ ing heartily.
The gentleman soon relurned, and Mr. Re¬ vere apologized lor leaving his guest lo .he len- . |
