THE DEA 111. W ARRAN
/rho mist 6f the morning still hung
' , heavily on the mountain top,' above the
village of Redchtf, but the roads which
led,.towarlis it were crowded with the va
ried popuhition of the surrounding country
'from far and near. At A lesbury the shops
ware closed ; the hanimer of the-blacksmith
laid upon Pita a wagon of any
, description was to be seed in the street,
-and even the bar of the-tavern wati;ocked,
and • the key g,,ne with -its proprietor to
ward the cliff, as a token Klan era which
as without a paraellel' in the annals of the
place. And save here and there a solita-

-seeming but half appeased by the,pr ivilege
of a holiday, granted on condition of-stay

a picture of desertion and silence; that had
'forever been unknown'tiction).
But in proportion as you-drew near the
ponderous in the midst of which the .
little town of Redcliff wee situated, 7ou
mingled again in the thick bustle and rpo

.boys, and holies and dogs, and all living,

The •village was crowdedlo overflow•
, ing;long before•the sun had gained a suf
•ficient altitude to throw its rays upon the/
deep valley in which it lay. There the
bar was crowded, and the fumes nf•tobac
co and whiskey, the jingling of small
change, and the perpetual clamor of the
throng, srts sufficient *to rack e brain of
common flexibility. In the streets' there
was•the greeting of old and long patted ac
.quaintanues: the bartering At horses; the
settling of old accounts; the buftionry of
half intoxicated men; the clatter of women;
the crying and hallowing of Oildrett and
'boys, and the barking -and go:trolling oT
stranger,idngs. To look upon 'the scene,
to mingle with the crowd, to listen to the
conversation, or to survey the countenance
of the assembled multitude, would lead to
satitifactOry solution of the cause for which
this mails of heterogeneous matter was
congregated.

Ore foot of the mountain, a difTerent scene

A Nests Sewetainer.—Major Heath, one of
the survivors from tne Steamboat Pubaski. dis
suaded his comrades in distress from committing
murderoin the following manly language. '
•i‘Ve areS.hristians" said he, nand we cannot
innocently imbrue our hands in the blood of a
fellow creature. A horrible-catastrophe 'has de
prived hundreds df their thvas,•brought sorrow to
many a hearth, anti thrown ustipott the mercy of
the winds and waves. We have still life left, let
us not give up all manliness and sink to the brute.
We have all our thoughtiabout us, and should
face death, Whidhseetrieror later must crvertake
us, with the spirit that become. us as Christian
men. When the hour arrives, '1 lay denim my
life without a mut mer, end 1 will risk it now, for
the safety of any one of you, btu I will never
stand by and see another sacrificed that we may.
drink his blood and esuhis flesh!"
The dissuasive appeased then': and famiihed,.
and desperate, and insane as they were, no vin.
lenee was afterwards proposed, and be had the
eatisiactom to come "trete to land with his eom
panions. This single speech, with ehe•rest saf
his conduct whfle oil %fragment of the 'wreck,
cave us an opimen of his moral courage and es- -
cellent qualities, altogether, above what any feat
of arms could have done. And seeing that his
coolness under these most trying circumstance
must free him (rum every 'sospicton of cowardice,
and also that his profession of arms must forbid
the idea that he is prejudice, unteashoshle e.
gainst warlike deeds.—his relliiment above too
led is entitled to very great attention. ''As Chris.
tittle, it became them to use no violence, even .to
preserve their, own lives from famine. As men,
it became them calmly to watt the event of their
sufferings,' 'Pits was the suhiannee 'of his ad.

.was himself under the influence of the principles
