" Haul up the mainsail !" _thundered the deck

The order had scarcely died away, before the

The fire of the Wasp now became dreadful—

t .„groans of the t tlying and the yells of the wounded,
I were master of the be.' As the sword of the dying
Manners was laid upon the capstan, the flag al
Britain dropped suddenly upon the bloody deck o!
the Reinder?, and ere the spectator could mark the
movement, tie banner of freedom floated triumph
antly in as place.
The Reindeer was an eizliteen gun sloop of war,
and had a compliment of liB souls. She had .25
killed and 42 wounded : while the Wasp bad but
nve kilted and twenty-two wounded.
After homing his shattered ptile, the victorious
Blakely shaped his course for I;9rierit, where he
artived on the Bth of July. with his ensign waving
above the tattered flag of England ; and his vessel
crowded with prisoners. of war.

With his accus , orned skill and gallantly, Captain

The cry of " Sail 0!”, now reused the officers

The helm of the V.up was therefore put up and
the ship ran off free, in,order to repair her rigging
and to draw the nearest vessel of the enemy from
its consorts.
The second stranger continued her chase - of the
Wasp until he got quite near, when he shot arms
her stern, gave her a parting broadside, and beatup
towards his consort, whose signal guns of distress
now echoed m melancholy murmurs along the
Mighty deep.
The Wasp left her prize in such haste, as to be
ignorant of his name and force. When the sea
gives up its dead, and the crew of the Avon and
the little band of - Blakely, shall muster together at
the final judgement, then, and then only, shall the
conqueror know his vanquished foe.
The Wasp was soon lost amid the darkness of
the night, while the Castilian, the vessel that came
to the assistance of the enemy, and his consorts,
hovered around the wreck of the . prlze, and endeav
ored to save the crew.
As the morning watch was called, the Avon gave
a sudden roll to leeward, then settling swiftly by
the stem, slie sank with a gurgling sound, while
her dead men floated in ghastly and bloody forms
upon the summer sea. With heavy hearts the Eng
lish cruisers lowered their ensigns at half mast and
left the ocean tomb of their sister, firing minute
guns in memory of their brave.
Having repaired ber damages, which were prin
cipally in spars and rigging, the Wasp continued
her cruise to the westward, and on the • 2th of Sep
tember, fell in with and took the Three Brothers.—
After scuttling her, she over-hauled and took the

Western Islands an armed brig hove in sight.—
Crowding on all sail, the gallant Blakely fired a
shot across her bows, and received her descending
flag as a token of submission. The vessel proved
to be the Atlanta, of eight guns and nineteen min
ute men. Midshipman Daniel Geisenger, now a
post-captain in the service, was put on board of her
as a prize'-master, and at the dim hour of evening: .
the prize•master and his crew were the last Ameri
cans who beheld the Wasp arid her gallant band,
and lived to tell the tale.

Lieut. McKnight and'master's mate, Lyman, late
of the gallant Esser, were taken from her. The
Swede then pursued his course, while the American
cruiser coo t mued to the Southward under easy sail.
At 4 P.ll , her' top-sails d pped in the Southern
ocean ; and when the sun set, she was seen no
more.

It was an awful night in the South Atlantie---the
waves leapt in mighty masses, like spectre:knights
in dusky armor, upon their fire-tipped crests, like
the crimson plumes of hell's battalion, played with
the clouds and fluttered in the breeze. Loud rotted

Who is Contented.
One day, as the dervish Almoran, the wisest of
all :he followers of the prophet, and the oracle of
the chief mufri Stamboul, was sitting in a drove by
the side of .a bubbling fountain on the shore of Boi
pborus, trying to find out thetrue road to happi.
Hess iu order that he might Lenefit his fellow-erea
tures by communicating the his specu
lations were interrupted by a man richly clothed,
who approaching, sat down and sighed heavily,
crying out at the same time, " 0, Allah, I beseech
thee to relieve me of life or of tie burdens with
which it is laden."
Almorn, who was a sort of amateur of misery,
because it al:folded him the pleasure of administer.
ing consolation, approached the man of sorrow, and
kindly inquired the cause of his griefs: " Art thou
in want of footi, of friends, of health, or any of those
comforts of life that are necessary to human hap
piness? or does thou lack the advice of experience
or the consolations of ~ .ympathy Speak, Int it is
the happiness of my life to bestow them on my
fellow.creatures."
" Alas !" said the stranger, I require none of theme
1 hare all and more than I want of everything,. I
have all thP means of happiness but one, and the
want of ! that renders every otter blessing of no vat-
lESI
"And what 's that fl asked the dervish.
"1 adore the beautiful Zulema ; but she loves
another, and all my riches and honors are as noth
ing. lam the moist miserable of men my Ile is a
bunt _n and my death would be the greatest of bles
sings."
Before Almoran could reply, there approached a
poor creature, bowed to theeanh.with a load of
misery He sat down moaning, as it in lifeat pain,
and casting his eyes upward, exclaimed, " Allah !
be my star, for I have no other !'
The dervish went to him and kindly, said : " What
atleth thee, poor man? Perhaps it may be in my
power to relive thy distress. What %tautest thou ?"
" Everything," replied the beggar, " health, food
kindred, 'trends. a home every-thing. . I am an out
cast 10. a wanderer, desinute of every comfort of
life. lam tns most miserable 01 mankind for in
addition to my own suitenngs, I see others around
me revelling in those luxuries for lack of a small
portion of which I am perishing,'"
At this moment the third man approached, 'with
weary steps and a languid look, and casting him
self down by the side of the fountain, st r et c h e d out
his limber at fun tenv, h and, yiiwning desperately,
cried oat, ' Allah ! what shall I dot what wilt be.
come et me! I ar:, tired of life, which is nothinv
NA a porlrft.y of wants, that when sapplied, only
Ilw\lnce d;sappointment-tv.iiiisg,nst."
Almoran aep:oached and asked,'- %Vital is the
cause of thy misery I Waal wannest thou ?"'
"I want a want,"' answered the other. "I am curs
ed with the misery of fruition. I hare wasted my
Fite in acquiring riches that brcr,zght tne nothing but

only want is Ilia:1 have nil:hula to desire. I have
everything I wish, and yet ,I enjoy nothing
Almorna paused a few =oments, utterly at a loss
to find a rernec'y for this strange maiady, then said
he to h msrlf. " Allah ! preserve me ;; see it is all
the came 'whether rrren wait that -2, evetythirt2.

any more in so cant a pursuit."
Then, taking nit his siaff,he went Cal his way.
