CHANGE OP fe’dRTCNE,
A PLAIN STATEMENT OF FACT#,
: Some sixty five or seventy ybari ago, a vessel from
Boston arrived at one of tho wharves of London.—
Among the hands on board was one by Iho Maine of
Tudor, a steady, rcepcclabloj well looking young-inhn,
■ who noted in the capacity of both cooper orid sailor.
Very curly one morning, nnd before any hand but
Tudor hud emtio upon deck; * young, beautiful, and
tolerably well dressed female cime tripping down
the street to tho vessel, enquired of Tudor for the
Captain. She wus toid'lhut he had not yet arose,
•nil she insisted upon seeing him without dcfty,nnd
k Vvitlj Tudor’s permission proceeded to his berth, and
arousing him, addressed him.with—
.‘‘Good morning,Captain; I hive called to see If
you will marry rm>..'! tu ..
Marry you 7” replied tho astonished Captain,bo
llcving her to bo of a sutpicious character, “leave my
vessel instantly; if-you know, what ls for your inter,
test;’* - •- ■'
Sho next went to tho male’s berth and
would marry her, and receiving nn answer similar
To tho Captain’s, she went upon deck, where Tudor
was engaged in/stnno business, and put tho same
Question to him.
“ With nil ill heart," answered Tudor, in halfae
nous, half jocular manner.
'* Then,” said she. “co-no olong with mo.’*
Tudor left his Work and followed herewith motives
which ho afterwards declared he could never satis,
factorily ofccbunl (or, oven to himself. f By the time
They had touched the principal streets of tho city
many of the shops hud been opened. Tho lady cn*
lerod a Barber's; followed by Tudor, beckoned him to
bo Seated; and ordered tile knight of the raizor to
lako olf hla board And hair; both of which operations
bo unquestionably greatly'stood id need of She
tooled tho hill and they both, 101 l tlie shop, but soon
bntored a hat stdro, She requested that thb best lot
of beavori Id thb Stdrb might be placed upon the
Counter, and then told Tudor to select such a one as
suited him. 11a soon did this, and tho price was
paid by the lady( Tudor threw off ids old tarpaulin;
and 101 l thb slum with his companion, in a beaver
that would not hove disgraced his. majesty (he King
himself. The next visit Was to tho shoo store; where
Tudor was not long in selecting a pair of boots, nor,
the lady in paying (hr llioin.
Tudor wus by this lime puzzled Id ilivino (ho ob
ject tho lady had in viuw; and it must bo ucjlnUw*
lodged ho was apprehensive ail Wan not rigid. ' But
fully aware that ho had coininmitlcd no crime to
make him dread tho facuufuny mortal, and wishing
to nco the end of tho furco which he considered then
fairly commenced, hd was determined to press fur*
ward; prepared for the worst; trusting everything to
his guide and companion, flu solicited from (ho
lady an explanation of her designs, but sho told him
to bo silent and ask no questions,’ ond immediately
led the way into u clothing store, with Tudor at her
isdo. flora Tudor was told to select the best suit of
tdolli™ in (he store that lilted him, with correspond
ing articles of clothing : and tho sailor in tho tar*
bedaubed pmlaluons and checkered shirt, was in n
few minutes metamorphosed into as fine a gentleman,
ad fur as appearance was concerned, aa had walked
The streets of that groat metropolis for many a day. <
Tho bill at this place, as well as at tho others, was <
paid by the tidy.
. Tudor’s amazement was now complete. . Tie nci*
Thcr knew what to say nr think. Who (ho lady was,
what her intentions were, ho.could not even surmise,
tie again asked for an explanation, ond insisted upon
one, but the only answer he received was— ,
“ Follow mo, and bo' not alarmed—all wi'l bo.ex.
plained hereafter to your entire satisfaction.”
Ono thing Tudor was obliged to acknowledge—
The ilady, thus for, had done by him ps well os he
■could havo wished; ho therefore resolved to oik no
■more questions, and to comply with all her requests
and demands. Presently she conducted him inlo. ii
jnaglstrMfaV'dfiWl and politely requested the minis
ter of thc hw'trt ilnito her and hot companions in
Tho bonds of rriatrlmo.iy. This was something of a
■damper to Tudor, but nevertheless he: silently yield.’
ed| the ceremony was. soon.bommonood, and 'in a
fuy <f seconds tho couple were pronouccd man and
wi/e. j, , ,■ .0 f .i j -
Without ultcrlng a word, or even , exchanging a
Mss, Tudor and his wifa nuw.lull the luugisliulo,
but not, however, until shqhad given him u guinea
fur . his services. . The couple passed through .the
streets in silence—Tudoi hardly knowing what ho
Was doing, or what ho had done, certainly ignorant
of whoro ho was going, or whul awaited him; and
the thoughts that occupied his wife’s mind,' the read
er will soon bo able to judgo for himself Turning
tho corner Of the street, Tudor beheld, • a low rods
distant from him, a splendid dwelling, towards which
l)|o wJGj soomed to direct her stops, as well os his
fiWO, apd fbW tJ» front door of. which they soon en
tered. Tho rouip Info .which, Tudor , wus .ushered
by his wfloi was fqfnfshog |q q, ply Jo of the grunt*
eat miignifioonoo. She satin a ohuif, tolling him to
piak'e lumaelf contented a minute or Uyb, and (hen
passed Into qnolher, room* - . . , ,
‘ Tho first oho here to address Ijo'y was her uncle,
who, on seeing hep enter (lie room, jumped in oston*
ishniont from Ills choir, and -calling for 'byname,
demanded how she hud escaped Jroiq her room, and
Where she liad beon. Her only answer was—
“ You fiend in human slnjpo, I allow you Jiist one
hour to remove your etluqls from this house.'- ' The
actual possession of my property here you have long
deprived me of, and vslnfy thought -you hsd-yhade
Pfranpemouts by which yog could have deprived mo

of a wealthy, gentleman. Whom 1 shall designate a©
Mr, A,, not recollecting his. actual naipe/and for l)io‘j

Elila. Hd had spared neither time' rior • expense ■ in'

object of his care and regard, liiswifo Imvingdicd
when ehe was quite young,: and before his death,
which look place when she was fourteen or; fifteen
years of ngc, lie had tho .satisfaction of witnessing
her one of the most .accomplished arid ;ftoWUful
young ladies ol London,, , ; (
~ A.short time previous to his deal!), an ‘orrarigrii
inent Was enlcrcd.iniq between Mr. A.arid a brother
of his, by which his brother was to havo.pofisessidri
of hu dwelling house, bis servants; horses,carriages,
and such other properly, as hud riot been deposited
in banks for th© benefit of bis daughter, till tho liriie
marfingo, when the possession of them was to’
bo given tip to her husband. It was a condition of
tho agreement that In' caso Eliza, died without
marrying the property was to go to her undo and Ills
I family.
Immediately after (ho dcatli'ofMr. A., his brother
removed Into his dwelling; Eliza boarded in his
family : and everything went on very agreeably fori
some months; when Eliza discovered,in her uncloj
and hia family, the manifestation that she .should
never marry—(ho reason, for which, from what has ;
already been said, must be obvious, to every reader. ;
Unluckily fur. Eliza; she did not discover.the diubol- j
ion I plot in season' lb frustrate It in ils bub.. It was
nothing less than.(hist to shut her lip in ono of the
centre rooms in (lie third story of tho house, to pro*,
vent her leaving it by keeping tho doors and windows
thoroughly-bolted, and refuse Iter associates by tell,
ing them, whenllicy called, that she was either at
scltnoj or oisbmo'oi the shops bn business, .or had
taken a ride iri the country lor her health; br to see
some of her relations ;.or by telling them Something
elsb equally destiluto'of the truth.
Eliza generally received her meals thrbiigh n Small
door, In the evening, from the hands of her unfeeling
aunt, to whom her cries for liberation froiii her lonely
and dismal prison house, were no mbro clPecllial than
i they would, have been bud they been directed to the
I idle winds.
Three years was the unfortunate girl thus slml bill
from oil communication with the world, when one
morning her scanty breakfast was curried to her by
an old female ’servant of licr father. Eliza once mbro
discovering the face of her old friend and servant,
Juon, bust into tears, and attempted several times
to spoak, but was unable to. Juan well understood
tho moaning of these incoherent sobbings, arid said,
herself unable to speak, from ointuotion, “Hush,
hush, Eliza,'mistress, flpcuk not; 1 understand u|l.
Vour tyrbnt aunt was taken 'suddenly 111 fast highl
and tho doctor says it-is doubtful whether alio long

Ing. Some of your old servants havo long been
planning melius lb; ynur escape, ahd at-a now In
hopes of cfTecllng itarid wlt'hoiit rtwdltlng for Eli
zu’s thunks and blessings, tripped down stairs. j
Eliza, although unable for sometime lb partake of I
her simple repast, did so at lust with a better relish:
Umn she had overknown before. __ Hor bid servants!
were still about tho house, and wore bant upon her !
rcßCuo! Most welcome, soul inspiring intelligence 11
** VVhatJ“ said she to herself, “is it possible that I

my liberation and happiness? Is it possible that alt
connected with this establishment— my own estab
lishment—do not possess hearts of adamant? God
speed thee, Juan, and thy assistants in thy .work of
love and mercy.”
U is unnecessary to detail all tho minulitn of the
scheme for Eliza’s escape, and the several interviews
held between her and Juan for tho lliroo days she
supplied Eliza with her meals. Suffice it to say,
that on the evening of tho fourth-day after theabovo
Interview, Eliza was furnished with an instrument
to unbar her window, and was promised a ropo lad
der the following evening, from ono of the windows
in lh© room adjoining; bul hsving loosed the bars
of tho window the same evening, sha determined not
to wait till the follnwing.evcmng. fyr the promised

A.,SIROCCO ON TUE DEAD SEA,
Wo extract the.following intcrcstirig sketch from
Lieut. Xjyncirs.forthcommg “ Narrating of llio U.S.
Expedition to thb Dead 'sou and the river Jordon.”
The work; we learn, will-soon bo ready*lbrpubltca-
I tion*«, /i'ho deluy of : ile appearance. has been oeda-J
l«ioned by tl)o numerous (Uustrationa with.which ills
to be embellished.
At. 2.35 P. M.‘ close in wi(lt k (li6 okstorn sho£c, but
liable lu land from tho stoflbottoin and shoahicts of
(he water. ,At 2.50 alight, breeze froni-W. N. VV„
, hauled Ip the north towards (ho base of the pcniiisu*
la. A long, narrow, dry marsh,, with a few scrubby
bushes, separated the water ffom a range of stupen
dous’hills, 2000 lect high. The cliff of Eh Nuwe
ireh.(Little Tiger,) lofty and grand.,lowering above
us.in horizontal strata of brows of limcslone and boa
tilul rose colored sand stone beneath. Cloudsin the
east (minus) seemed to bo threatening a'gust. At
2,30 steered N, N. E;, along- a low -marshy flat in
shallow water. The night wind had subsided, and it
was oppressively hoi, 97 degs.; water twelve inches
. below the surface 91) degs. A thin purple haze over
the mountains, increasing cvfcry moment, and pre
senting a most singular and awful appearance ; the
I haze so thin, that it ;was lmsparonl,nnd rather a
: bluish thun-a distinct color. 1 apprehended a tliun*
or an earthquake and took in the soli. . At
|350, 'a hoi blisterihg.'hurricahe "etrbek us from the
south east, and for some moments wo feared being
I driven out to sea.-* The thermometer rose immedi
ately to .102 degs.. The men, closing their eyes to
shield them from lho fiery blast, were obliged to pull
with all their might to stem the rising waves, and at
4.20 physically exhausted, but with grateful hearts
We gained the shore. My own eyo-lids’wcse blister
ed by the hot,wind, being unable to protect thetafrom
the licbcsslty of klcerlng the board.
We landed bn the south side of the peninsula,near
Wody llumier, the most desolate spot upon which
wo hud yet eribamped. Some Went up the ravine to
escape (ho stifling wlndj olherfc driven back by, the
gla/e, returned to tho bout and crouched under the
awnings. One mounted spectacles to protect his'eyes,
but the metal became,so heated that ho was obliged
to remove them. Our arms and the buttons on our
coats.bpcame almost burning loathe touch ; end the
inner folds of olir garments were Cooler than those
exposed to the immediate contact of the wind.
Wo bivouacked without tents on a dry marsh,
‘a few dead bushes around us; and somo of the
thorny i\Uck, and n tree bearing a red berry a
• ®b°. r t distance inland-with,low cones on the mar*
, g ,n °f the sea. At a short distance ib thb ,N; E.*,
on the peninsula’, we found fragments bf nh immense
and vpry old millstone. The mill haltdoUbiles'sbeen
turned by a.canal from the ha Vine; down which the
water must flow copiously in the rnihy season.
At 5, finding Uib heal intolerable, wo walked up
the dry torrent bed in search of water. Found two
VQi Utah, a stream, with min
from the upper to the lower pool. There were some
succulent plants oh thbir iiMrgihd. ond fbrn roots;
and a few bushes around them; - There were huge
bouldcrs”of sand stone in (ho ratine ; ndend .palm
troejnear the largest pool, a living one in the deft of
the lock at the head of the gorge { and high tip to i
the summit of the beetling cliffs, the sandstones lay
in horizontal strata, with perpendicular cleavage,'
and limestone above, its light brown color richly con.
(resting with the deep red below.
.The sandstone below limestone hero, and limestone
without Sandstone on the opposite shore, would seem.
. lo Indicate a geological fault. *
Washed and bathed in one of the pools, but there,
lief was only. momentary. In one instunlafter
ing the water, the moisture on the surface evaporated
and loft the skin dry, parched and stiff. Except the
minnows in the pool, there' wasnol'a Ilvjng' tiling
stirring; butlhe hot wind swept moaning through
tho brunches of the withered palm tree, and every
bird and.insect, if any there were, had sought shel
ter under the rocks.
.■Coming out from tho ravipe, (ho sight was n singu
lar one. The.wind had increase to a tempest: the
two extremities and (ho western shore of the sen
were curtained Jiy .a mist on (his side of.a purple
hue, on the other a yellow lingo? and (ho red ray*
lens sun; In the 1 bronzed clouds, had tho appearance
it present* when looked upon through smoked glass.
■ Thus heavens have.appearcd just before 1
the Almighty in,his wrath mined.down flro upon the {
cities of the plain. Behind were the ragged crugs)
I of tho mountain of Moub, (lie Inndof inccsf,envel
oped in n Cloud of dust swept by (ho simoom from

it might prnvp friends or foot; tnid thereforetlnit lit

but ho was so fearful of tholr hostility that I could

With his back to thb wind, and his eyes filed on.
