Denahue's early biography would
be specially interesting, I have •no
doubt, to suelvas'are curious in trac
ing the developments of that class of
genius which our here possessed to
such an eminent 'degree. Born of
indigent parents in the city of Dublin,
he had served an apprenticeship in
the time honored art: of picking
pockets; but the precocity of his ge
nius keeping pace with the develop
ment of the physical wan, he , relin
quished that busine - 4 and took to
the profession of house breaking.: As
in the lower grade he evinced an
adaptability and fertility Of genius,
coupled with a rapidity of execution,
that often elicited the applause and
patronizing smiles of his tutors, so
in the higher walk of his profession
he displayed such promptitude, bold
ness, and dash as astonished his co;
temporaries and threw , his rivals
completely I n .the shade. •
Donahue had a long and brilliant
career, and by unremitting Industry
and perseVerance, had worked, him
selfat last Into the wholesale business.
In this' line' he went into- a large
speculation—not less indeed than
that of undermining the bank of Ire
land, with a view of "settling its ap!
counts." 'Hi had. a peculiar talent
for finance in general ; 'but evin4x.da
decided taste for 'settling' the affairs
of banks and Jewelry shafts in' par
ticular.
In this speculation lio succeeded
admirably for eight or nine months;
he had tunneled hie way through till
lie had got under the very floor on
which was deposited. the iron safe
containing the bullion and gold 'mid
silver coin of the institution, and the
next night would " - have brought h
en t erprise to a happy and successful
termination by sawing, through. the
floor and appropriating the contents
of the coveted safe—but the Fates
were not propitious. The ' as
Donahue sarcastically termed all po
lice, toward , whom, by the way, he

they were breakfasted on ..ikilagelee,'

to run down a given declivity with
a velocity of a mile a minute. This
sumptuous matutinal repast finished,
they. were taken, out- to work in
gongs, some in the quarries and some
to hew down trees in the forest,
guarded in all cases by soldiers arm
ed with loaded muskets and fixed
bayonets.
Our hero was put in the forest gang.
Now Donahue never hewed anything
in his Ho harder than human flesh,
and in such operations never used
any other implement than his knuck;
les—utensils, by the Way, which nev
er failed In• the edge. But when he
begun to hew wood with iron, and
• felt trees with an axe, the ration! his
awkwardness was in precise proper
ilon.to the novelty of the operation.
As might have been expected, his
handsblistered, his wrists got strain
ed, and hb became quite unable to
Operate on the stubborn trees, which
insisted on iron being propelled with
a considerable force of muscle.—He
put down the axe.
'Go on with your work,' ordered
the soldier on guard. ,
'Can't,' said Donahue; 'my hands
are blistered.' .
'GO on with your work, I say.' .
'Can't do a tap, sir. Wrist clean
out of joint'
.'You won't work, then °' said the
soldier, sternly.
'lmpassible!' replied your friend
deprecatingly.
'Very well,'• observed the soldier ;
Donahue was • thereupon escorted
before the governor of the jail, who
heard- what. the soldier and he had
got to say respectively.
'My poor fellow begin that po
tentate, 'you were tenderly brought

Your delicate hands have been used

with them. Poor fellow!' what a
shame lt 'ls for government not to
send out" gloves with axe-handles,
and so save those - hands
width have done such execution at
picking pockets.' •
'Never picked a pocket since I was
a kid: interrupted our hero, in vin
dication of his honor. This was his
sore point.
• 'My poor fellow! you're too honest
for such work ; it's your honesty that
has ruined you!'
'Not a bit of it,' said Donahue,
stoutly. `1 robbed many a man; but
edl did it in a manly way ; never sneak
behind a man's back to deft!'
'My poor fellow! Let me see your
Mittens.' -Donahueshowed his hands.
'My poor fellow I they're very sore.
Are your hands - the only sore part
about you ?' •
'The only sore spot on my blessed

he growled, with, a ferocious scowl,

flogger. 'l'll makeskin and flesh fly;

The fifty lashes having been ad

said, of alash per minute, Donahue
was set low.' Dr. Savage, the Died
leal.ollker of the prison, then walked
up, felt • his 'Pulse, and pronounced
-him fjt. for work. . • .
Donahue lu;d been untied;scarcely entied
when three more of his fellow prison
ers atut ship mains, were marched in
to the yard,- tied to the triangles, and.
made to undergo asimilar ordeal of
fifty lashes each for being unable to.

the infliction—when Dr. Savage, af
ter his usual series:oink interlude of
pulse feeling, ordered -them kick to
'work , again. After tine another
batch, and•then another, and so the
horrid work went on: till eighteen
were flogged without intermission.
Most of the men, it may beobserv

wontonass, it havin ,, been customary,'
'to subject newly:arrived convicts to
'the lash on the least pretense or • pro-
Vocation, to give them a . foretaste of
what they might expect in the event
of their becoming refractory—in other
'words, to punish them by. antielpa
Don. ..
. .
It will beeaslly Imagined that these
convicts were now much le*i able to
work thaii before' being flogged. Yet
because they 'refused' to work they
were locket LIP. the sore parts rubbed
with salt and water, and were again
brought out!to work next morning.
Still unable to work they were.again

'This ,terrible lira they're lead

Liverpool r.iagsmon, as he and 1)on
aill10 crawled at tho foot of a ttee, en
deavoring, or rather pretending ..to
cut it down; 'a terrible
lorrible!' wag the reply. "rimy

the s4mner tiny tlo it the. !letter for
us.'
'Though in terrible agony,' &Noce
ed Smith, don't feel if I should
die.'
'So much the worse,' returned the
other. 'The longer we live the more
flogging we'll get.'
'They say,' continued Bill Smith,
that prisoners in the plaeesometinies
cast lots as to which would kill the
other in order to get out of pain.—
What do you say? Will you and I
cast lots as to which of us will sink
this axe in the others skull? Which
ever of us does it will be hanged, and
then two of us will be out of misery.
Whitt do von say?'
'Never!' replied Donahue. nev
er killed a man in my life, and I'm
d—ci if ever 1 stand like a calf in
the shambles and allow another to
kill me if I can help it.'
'Well,' returned the other. 'l'll get
WOW one else to do it if you don't.'
'Don't,' remonstrated Donahue, in
a kindly- tone; 'while there's life
there is hope; and who knows but we
might live to take revenge on some
of these tyrants yet.'
While Donahue Wag talking and
pretending to work, but in reality
watching the sentinel, Smith slipped
from his side thmugh the neighbor
ing thicket, proceeding to a gang of
three or four men who were working
closety. The next instant a crash
and a groan were heard. Smith had
sunk his axe into *mother convict's
skull to earn the happy privilege of '
being hanged.
This is not an isolated instance. of '
such murderous desperation. _Scores
j of similar eves could be cited from
the ebnVict chronicles of 'New South
Wales.
Whether on nceciunt of his robust
constitution, which seemed to defy
nil attempts at breaking it, or our
hero's comely exterior,
or the jaunt].
nm of his deportment, Donahue at
any rate became obnoxious •to his
keepers, and they flogged him and
Hogged him, until the doctor at last
was forced to admit that he was no
longer able to work, and had him
j sent to the hospital. •
Being now a patient and almost
dead—though thp Fates ordained that
he was not to be killed with flogging
-111 s manacles were taken off, mi,
when able to go on crutches he was
permitted to walk in the yard. He
remained in the 6:16-vital for two
weeks, at the end of which time he
was as convalescent OS convicts were
allowed to become before being sent
to work, and to work he was accord-.
ingly ordered for the following morn-
ing. Ai few minutes after this pleas-.
log intelligence was communieuted
to him he walked into the do set,'
and the next tidings heard 'of him
was that he was a bushranger on the'
Bathurst Mountains. He effected his I
j escape as seine enterprising
men in San Francisco contemplate

sewers of the' city.
Having achieved his liberty In this
romatie fashion, his first exploit upon
gaining thoopen air in dusk of even

obeying at his command, he bound
their hands, ordered them_ to lead

Mr. Robertson half eked 'with fear,

'What's the meaning of ail this?'
she exelaiined, rushing frantically to
