tearing it out rrmn among tho clays, and
scraping it away by tons, made standing

that a three master was going ashore.

to fall crashing again upon the sands,
parting in tho middle; rushing billows
pouring tons upon tons of water over tho
deck ; a wild, wild cry for help ; and then
the shore strewed with fragments, casks,
bodies, as the merciless waves sport with
them, tossing them on to the sands, and
then curling over to drag them back.—
Going ashore; not safety from a wild

seemed roughest; “she’ll be there in less
time than I said; and then Lord have
mercy upon ’em! Amen!”
As he said this, the old man reverent
ly took oil’his tarpaulin sou’-wester, and
stood with the storm tearing through the
remains of his-grizzly hair; bald, rugged
and weather-beaten, the courseness of
his features seemed. for the moment sub
dued—softened by tiie feeling within his
breast—as lie stood there nq inapt ropro
sentation of a seer of old.
“ Is there no chance for them?” I shout
ed.
It did look a desperate venture, indeed,
to attempt to launch a boat with such a
sea on, and having no reply, I stood sha
ding my eyes and gazing out to sea. •
“Bang!”
: There -was another flash, and another
dull, echoless, report, and as the veil of
spray seemed to clear during a lull in tiro
storm, I could perceive a large three
masted vessel about live hundred yards
from the shore; and once, as sire heeled
over, and showed her dock, I could see
that it was crowded with people.
“God help them,” I muttered.
“Amen,” said the old man; and just
then, away to our left, we saw the life
boat carriage coming down at a trot,
drawn by two stout horses; while a loud
and prolonged “ hurray” welcomed its
arrival —as another flash, and its follow
ing heavy report, seemed to come from
the doomed vessel like a groan of pain in
its hour of,sore distress.
“They’ll' never go out to her,” said tho
old man, shouting in my ear, for after
the lull, the storm came down with re
doubled fury—the wind shrieking and
howling past cutting the crests of the
waves oil’as it came tearing over the hill
of waters, and dashing tho salt spray in
my face till it almost seemed to cut tho
flesh; while at times the women who
had come down wore completely held
back against the steep sandbank.
“There! look there!” said the old man,
suddenly seizing my arm. “ Catching at
straws. Why, there’s a boat load coming
ashore. “There; don’t you see—now a
top o’that breaker?"
1 caught sight of a small boat crowded
with figures, and then theroseemed to be
a tall wave curl over it, and I saw it no
more.
"Gone!” said the old man ; “Iknowod
it! Nothing could live in such a storm."
, ''■’'Let’s go to the life-boat, and see if
they are going off," said I; but tho old
man was intently gazing out to sea.
“There; just as X said," he shouted
hoarsely, “juatlntheplace.. She’sstruck,”
And then, above the yelling of the storm,
THK ItltlJJE.

wo could hoar a crash, and a wild shriek,
that seems to ring through mo now upon
a stormy night when far inland I iiisten
to the howling wind.
11 It’s now or never!” said the old man,
as lie ran down towards where (he life
boat stood upon its carriage, with a crowd
of men and women around, the women
hanging on to their husbands, and ap
parently begging that they would not dare
the perils before them.
The sea had looked fearful enough from
where we stood before ; lint here, as close
as wo dare go the breakers, it looked per
fectly awful, while the attempt to launch
a boat seemed absolute madness. It was
evident that the men thought so too,
though, as wo came up, one sturdy fellow
shouted ; “I'm ready, mates, if you’re
going a remark thatelicited no response
for everyone stood gazing out towards the
doomed vessel.
Just then in the dull haze seaward, a
blue light shown out over the water like
a dull star; but still no one moved. All
at once,the old-man by my side laid hold
of my arm, and whispered: “ (rive me a
lift, sir;” and before I know what his ob
ject was lie had climbed by my help into
tlie boat. “ Now, then you boy,” heshout
od wildly; I can'tstand this!"Stand aside,
and let some old ones come !”
The spell was broken. Women were
hastily thrust aside, and a boat’s crew was
soon made up, amidst the shrieking and
wailing of sweathuarts and wives, who ran
about tlie beach wringing their hands.
“Hurray for old Marks,” shoaled a
voice at my elbow, and tlie crowd loudly
cheered tlie old man. Then oars were
shipped, and all made ready, the old sailor
seizing tlie steering oar as lie stood up in
his place with a life-belt on and his hat
blown oil—looking nobler than over.
“ Now, ate you all ready ? he shouted.
“ No, no,” was theory ; and in the hush
of expectation, two men rose in tlie boat,
dashed off their life-belts, and amidst hal I
mutlered groans, leaped out from their
places, ami ran up (lie sands to tlie hank,
whore they disappeared.
“ Two more !" shouted old Marks, and
for a few moments, so dread was tlie peril,
not a soul moved ; then two stout lads
came rushing towards the boat, pursued
by an elderly man—a perfect giant.
“Stop them!’’ he roared. “ Yershan’t
go, lads.”
Ho came up to them by the boat-side as
they were climbing in, and endeavored to
stop their progress ; but in his turn he
was seized from behind by a couple of
men, and the two new-comers were in a
half minute equipped tortile dire struggle
-before them and in their places.
“Del. megol” shrieked tlie man; hut tlie
others clung to him, as the signal was giv
en, tlie carriage backed down into posi
tion, the time accurately chosen, and with
a wild “hurrah !" heard above the sun m,
the life-boat Was launched.
My attention luid been so taken up Unit
I had ceased to look upon tlie man who
was struggling to regain Ids liberty ; hut
just as tlie boat was leaving its carriage, a
bystander was driven violently against
me, and the moment after i saw a figure
dash across the intervening space, and
seize the side of the boat; and then came
tlie roar of the storm and Hie rush of
K l>ray; while for a few minutes tlie life
boat was invisible. Then a short distance
off, she was seen rising upon a wave, and
then disappearing again into tlie dull
haze, which, mingled with tlie coming
night, soon shut every tiling from our gaze
but tlie foaming water.
“ Over seventy, sir,” shouted a voice in
reply to a query. “ Old man-o’-war’s
man. Been in many a storm; but this
here's awful.”
Awful it was; for so wild a night laid
not fallen upon that part of tlie coast for
many years ; and as tlie folks upon (he
shore gazed in tlie direction tlie boat laid
taken, they shook their heads, and slum ted
in eaeli other's ears.
There was a long and awful pause, only
broken by the shrieking of the wind,
and then came a loud shout: “ Hero she
comes!” and in another minute, obedient
to the steersman, the rowers timed their
strokes to a second, so that the boat heav
ily laden, rode in upon the summit of a
giant wave, but twenty willing hands
were at her side, and she was run right*
up the sands, aud fifteen shivering, half
drowned follow creatures lifted out and
hurried up the shore.
“ Now, my lads,” cried old Marks, “ on
to the the track with her, and we’re oflf
again.”
The boat was soon mounted, and every
man at his post, the father of tiro two lads
taking ids place by the side of the old
cock-swain ; for no amount of persuasion
on either side could ollcct a change.
There was another cheer, rising above
the storm, and again the gallant crow
were launched into the surf, that seemed
to curl round the boat as though to All it
in an instant. It rose and fell a dark mass
amid the while foam for an instant, and
then seemed to plunge into a hank of fog
gy blackness, for night had fallen.
I could not drag myself away from the
stirring scene around mo, for I seemed
hold to the spot by a strange faeination.
All at once a' lurid light shot up, for a
quantity of straw had been sot on lire and
the flames roared and crackled as dry sea
weed and pieces of wood were heaved up
to increase the glare, which appeared to
gild the crests of the waves, and threw in
to bold relief the figures on the sands—
some gazing out to sea; some watching
eagerly the fringe of breakers, ready to
rush down and secure anything that might
bo washed-ashore from the wreck.
More straw was heaved upon the lire,
and the flames and sparks rushed inland,
as they rose with a mighty current of air,
and darted across the sand bank. Out.sea
ward all seemed black darkness, and the
eyes strained after the life boat were for a
while strained in vain.
All at once there was a cry of “Here
she comes;” hut it was prolonged into a
wild wail of despair; for by the light from
the fire the boat could be seen broadside
on, and close in shore; and then, after
tossing about for a moment, she was dash
ed, bottom upwards, upon the sands.
There was a rush to aid the men strug
gling in the surf. Some wore dragged
asliofe ; Home scrambled unaided from the
water; while more than one was sucked
back by the undertow ; but the life-belts
they wore kept them afloat; and at last,
more or less hurt, the whole crow was
ashore, three being carried up to the vil
lage insensible.
I now learned Unit about half-way to
the vessel, the steersman’s oar had snap
ped in two and the boat fell 'into the
trough ofthoseii; when in the elibrts to
right her, a couple more blades were bro
ken ; a wave swept over them and wash
ed two men from their scats; hut they
regained their places, and then, with the
dread of death upon them the boat be
came min anugeable in their hands ; loj
spite of the ellorts of the old coxswain,
the 'men appeared panic-stricken aud
rowed at random.
The light that glared upon the shore
now showed that it was completely strew a
with wreck ; and I looked witli horror
upon tile various signs which so plainly
disclosed the fate of the good ship. Spar,
plank, beam, and cask, entangled with
rope, were being churned over and oyer
in the sand; and twice I saw something
dragged ashore and carried away, which
sent a shudder through my frame.
At last, heart-sick and weary, 1 turned
away, and inquired where the crew of
the boat were, and who had suffered;
when, to my sorrow, 1 learned that the
only one seriously injured was old Marks,
i who had so gallantly set the example that
evening—an example which had result-

ed in the saving of fifteen poor creatures
from a watery grave.
On entering the village, I soon found
where the old man hail been convoyed,
and a few minutes after I was at the bed
side of the sufibrer. I found him sensi
ble ; but with a change in ids counte
nance that no amount of pain or suffering
alone would have placed there, tie was
quite calm, and smiled as I entered.
“ Has she gone to pieces?” lie whis
pered, stopping to wipe the blood away
that oozed from his lids.
, ” I so,” I replied; “the shore is strew
ed with wreck.”
“ I knowed she would,” he gasped.—
"Poor tilings, poor tilings! How many
did we bring ashore?”
1 told him fifteen.
“ Ah!” ho groaned, " not enough, not
enough.” , '
“Hut it was a niostgallantaet,” I said ;
"and more would have been saved but
for the accident. Whore are you hurt?
It is not serious, I hope?”
"Serious?” he whispered ; and then,
with a sad smile, " No ; it ain't serious,—
I’m the only one hurt; and my lime’s
up long ago—four years and more. So it
ain’t serious.”
“ Where are you hurt?” X said
“ llibs nil crushed,” ho whispered. “ I
was under tiro gunwale of the boat; and
it's ail over. I could see it in the doctor’s
looks."
A gusli of blood stopped Ida utterance,
and t dared not whisper the comfort I
could not feel.
“ It’s all right, sir,” he whispered, af
ter lying with Ills eyes closed for about
half an hour—“ it’s all right, and an old
tar couldn’t die better than doin’ ids du
ly. I never thought to; but X always
felt as I should like to die in harness, as
they say, and so I shall, but I wish there
had boon more.”
“ More what?” I said.
“ More saved” he whispered. ” Ycr
See I’ve been afore now in action and the
Almighty only knows how many souls
I’ve cut oil'; and I should like to feel sure
as IM saved more than I did for—Unit’s
all'. Perhaps they might go in the scale
to help balance the bed."
‘‘J!nt you did all as a part of your du
ty.”
“Ah!” lie whispered, “duty! Yes,
sailors should do their duty; and I felt it
was mine to-night to go. We old men
o'-war’s-men were trained to answer to a
call in calm or storm, and when lives
were at stake to-night, I felt that X was
called, and I hope X did my duty. Will
you ask them fifteen to just say a word
or two for the old man in their prayers,
sir; X mean when X’m gone? X think 1
should like them to, for I’m au old sail
or, and can’t boast of my past life.”
“ Have you no relatives ?” I whisper
ed; no friends that you would like to
soo?”
“ Faraway—far away,” lie said with a
mournful shake of the head ; “ and some
are a-waitin’ for me to join their watch.
Don’t leave me, sir,” he said piteously.
I promised I would not; ami sat watch
ing the sullcrer, who seemed to sink
into a slate of stupor, only moaning at
intervals as lie tossed his head from side
to side of the pillow, and muttered a few
words broken and half-spoken. The
storm gradually sunk, till the wind quite
lulled; and about three o'clock I half
drew the curtain and looked out upon
tile sea, which still: tossed fearfully;
though all above was calm and peaceful
—a light cloud just drifting slowly past
the pale bright moon.
X stood gazing at tire soft blue sky, now
so placid ami serene, almost wandering
that so great a change could have taken
place, when X started, for a voice behind
mo shouted, “ Morning watch. Draw
the curtain, and let that moon shine in.”
I obeyed—turning cold and trembling
us I did so—still looking at the dying
sailor, -who sat erect in the bed. “ Hero,”
lie said ; and ns X approached the bed lie
seized my hum). “Hark ! don’t yon hear
that? It's the boatswain piping for mo to
keep my everlasting watch. Ay, ay, sir !
There—bark again ! There’s the waves a
lashing upon the further shore. Break
ers ahead! Hook out there ! The old ves
sel’s struck, and she’s going to pieces—
the old seventy-four, that’s weathered so
many a storm, going ashore. Farewell,
messmate; one short struggle, one cold
plunge, and a hopeful heart—a bravo
striking out through harsh breakers !
Land, ho! on the other side—and it’s a
land of rest—a land of peace and hope.—
Now for it! Tho rush of tho dark waters
is coming—blinding—deafening—but a
bold heart, messmate. God bless you !
T’m going ashore.”
For some minutes, I sat motionless.—
The old man’s eye had lighted up as he
gazed straight before him, out upon the
moonlit heavens. Xlis voice seemed to
peal through tile silence of the night, till
t shivered as lie described the wreck then
taking place. To the last word, his-voice
had rung out loud and resonant; then lie
sank back upon the pillow—stained now
with liis lifeblood; and I passed softly
from tho room, for I knew that his life
bark was stranded by tho sea of Heath.
THU DEACON ASTI» THU W.ISPS,
A worthy deacon in a town of Main
was remarkable for the facility with which
lie quoted Scripture on all occasions. The
divine Word was ever at his tongue’s end,
and all the trivial as well as important oc
currences of life furnished occasion for
quoting tho language of tho Bible. What
was better,-however, the exemplary man
always made his.quotations the standard
of action.
One hot day lie was engaged in mow
ing with his hired man, who was leading
oil', the deacon following in his swath,
eonuinghisaptquotations, when the man
suddenly sprang from his place, leaving
his swath just in time to escape a wasp’s
nest.
“ What is the matter?” hurriedly inqtii
red the deacon.
“ Wasps," was the laconic reply.
“ i'ooh!” said the deacon. “ The wick
ed flee when no man pnrsueth, but the
righteous are as bold asalion,” and taking
the workman’s swath lie moved but a step
when a swarm of brisk insects settled
about Ins ears, and lie was forced to re
treat, with many painful a sting, and in
great discomfiture.
“ All 1” shouted theother, withnchuck
le—“ The prudent man. foreseetli the evil,
and hideth himself, hut the simple pic-s
on and are punished."
The good deacon had found Ids equal
in making appi lent ions of the sacred writ
ings, and'thereafter was not known to
quote .Scripture on trivial occasions.

CAUGHT IN HIS OWK TRAP.
A girl, young and pretty, and, above ail,
gifted with an air of admirable candor,
lately presented herself before a Parisian
lawyer.
“ ’Monsieur, I have come to consult you
upon a grave affair. I want you to oblige
a man I love to marry me in spite of Lpm-‘
self. How shall I proceed ?”
The gentleman of the bar bad, of course,
a sufficiently elastic conscience. Ho re
flected a moment, and then, being sure
that no third person overheard him, re
plied hesitatingly.
“ Mademoiselle, according to our law,
you always possess the means of forcing
a man to marry you. You must remain,
on three occasions alone with him ; yon
can then go before a Judge, aud swear
that lie is your lover.” ■
! “ And will that suffice, Monsieur?”
“ Yes, Mademoiselle, with one further
condition.”
“Well?”
“ Thou you will produce witnesses who
will make oath to have seen you remain a
good quarter of an hour with tho Individ
ual said to have trilled with your affec
tions.”
“ Very well, Monsieur, I will retain you
ns counsel in the management of this af
fair. Good day.”
A few days afterwards the young lady
returned. She was mysteriously receiv
ed by the lawyer, who" scarcely giving
her time to seat herself, questioned her
with the most lively curiosity.
“ Capital, Capital.”
‘ l l’ersvcre in your design, Mademoiselle;
but mind, the next time you come to con
sult me give mo the name of the young
man you aro going to mako so happy in
spite of himself.”
“ You shall have it witliout fall."
A fortnight afterward, tlie young lady
again knocked at the door of heroouusel’s
room. No sooner was slie within, she
Hung herself into a cliair, saying that the
walk had made her breathless. Her coun
sel endeavored to reassure lier, made her
inhale salts, and even proposed to unloose
her garments.
“It is useless, Monsieur,” she said “ I
am much better.”
“ Well, now, tell mo the name of the
fortunate mortal.”
“ Well, then, the fortunate mortal, ho
it known to you, is—yourself!” said the
young beauty, bursting into a laugh, ‘i I
love you ; I have been here three times
teto-a-toto with you, and my four witness
es aro below, ready and willing to accom
pany mo to a magistrate,” gravely con
tinued the narrator.
The lawyer, thus caught, had the good
sense not to got angry. The most singu

wife, who, by the way, makes au excel

Tins Gallipot. —“ I remember,” says
Theodore Hook, “ when I was at school,
two of tho boys proceeded to a pond for
the purpose of swimming a gallipot, which
was tlie property of tho nigger boy of the
two. It chanced that in the eagerness
incidental to this exciting amusement,
the smaller boy tipped into the water,
and after a good deal of struggling, sank
and wasdrowued. After the melancholy
catastrophe, the bigger boy was question
ed as to what efforts lie had made to res
cue his companion, and his answers made
it evident that lie had by no means ex
erted himself to the utmost. This con
viction produced a severe rebuke from
tlie tutor; upon which Master Simpson
hurst into a llood of tears, and said “ I do
think that I could have saved Green—
but if I had tried, I should have lout my
gallipot .”

there wore more fools or rogues among

and put an end lo you,” said the Colonel.
But perceiving the threat.gave Wilkes
no alarm, lie added, “surely you don't
mean to say you could stand here one

was,) you would not lie alive one instant
after." “'How so?" “ 1 should merely
say it was a fabrication, and they would
