iliE CONTRABINDIST'S REVENGE.
V - C'ONFESSIC).N
[CONCLUDED:I
I found them waiting, all in readinesss. My
rtee,ount they heard without a word of observa
tion. We took the body on board, and, turning
the horse adrift to seek a new master where he
could find one, shoved off, and made sail across
the Irish Channel. When about half way, we
threw the body overboard, along with the clothes
I had worn that night, and two days afterwards
made the Welsh coast.
We immediately sold our boat and dispersed:
some went to labor at a great publio work that
was then in progres;,others went to the It'arvest in
England and Scotland; for my part, I became a
wanderer over the face of the world for twenty
years. During that time I had a taste of all
the services—military, naval, and East Indian:
but my adventures during that time have little to
do with the story I am telling you—•besides,l am
afraid I will hardly have time to finish it.
Well, about a couple of months ago, I found
myself once more on Irish ground. I was then
one of a gipsy - party, and wo had just crossed
from Scotland to Belfast, along with the crowds
of reapers returning from the Scotch harvest, or
shearing, as it is called. We travelled south
ward ; and, as we drew near this town, I propos
ed to my brethren of the gang, that we. might
commence distilling:. This was not so much on
account of the gain to bo got by the trade, but
in order that I might have always a ready sup
ply of that stuff, without which life was now to
me an unendurable torment.
Tho proposal was eagerly adopted, and we sot
about nrocuring asnitlble apparatus immediate •
ly. Oil coming to this town to buy tin-plate
wherewith to comtruet it, (for wo all understood
tin-plate-working in a degree,) I was struck with
tho appearance of a woman I saw ballad•singing
in the streets. She sang esautifully ; and this,
added to the remains, very perceptibe, of great
beauty, drew her abundance of encouragement.
It was horeelf—Ellen Lucas I Thereupon, the
single and potent passion I had formerly borne
for her, and which still throughout my long wan
derings had filled my dreams, returned in all its
vehemence
Yes ! though she had betrayed me, I never
hated hers my curses and my revenge were di
rected not toward her, but against her accom
plice, Ormond: and now, how I could have bless
ed the gentleman I saw showering coppers into
her bag ! She frequented the more aristocratic
streets of the town, and seemed to 'find it profit-
ably to cultivate an appearance of faded gentil
ity—of one who had seen better days.
When I spoke to her and Mentioned my name,
she was struck dumb. She plainly knew me
yet she, went away with me when I led the way,
without speaking a word. After a while, how
ever, she recovered herself, and professed herself
overjoyed to meet me. A long course of accusa
tion, argument and recrimination ensued, which
ended, as you will not bo surprised to learn, if
you are at all experienced, in my once more be
coming the dupe of this Delilah.
Her connection with Ormond before our mar
riage she denied ; and though I know she was ly
ing, I took her word. Her after connection
with Ormond she excused on account of her pov
erty. She was straying and without a lodging;
he effered her her former home, and she ac
cepted it. All this I took from her as valid ;
tied, had she offered no excuse at all, it would
hove been the same thing. I was infatuated.
She was anxious to know what had become
of o:niond. His horse she informed me, had
}.con found several weeks after his disappearance
in the posession of some travelling hawkers,
to whom, however, no connection with him,
could be brought home. They stated they had
found it grazing in a sequestered nook among
the moors, and brought forward proof that they
were in a quite different part of the country at
the time implicated. With a strange delight I
detailed to her the true account of his end. She
listened in silence, and without comment.
It was now agreed between us, that she should
adopt my way of life ; and sh 6 forthwith
did so, and became one of our gang. A most
useful member, too, she proved to be. With a
bottle of spirits under her shawl, she used to
go about from house to house, in a quiet, stealthy
way, giving the people glasses by way of trial,
and making whispered bargain for the disposal
of gallons of the same stuff.
By this moans wo were rapidly drawing
around us a profitable connection. Our still was
set a-going in the identical vault I have described :
the tower was much changed in other parts, but
the vault remained the same. Here I was con
stantly employed—the rest of our gang going
about as gipsies, stealing grain, potatoes, and
other.ms,tertals, and selling, when they could the
manufactured stuff.
One day, while I was thus employed, and
sitting watching in a state of dreamy half-in
toxication, I heard several voices speaking low
and whispering about the ruin. This gave me
no concern, for I distinctly heard my wife's voice
and I concluded it was the rest of our band.
They was much talking: presently the sound
reached the mouth of the vault.
" Bless me, bow strong it smells!" said a
strange voice; and there was a sound of snif
fling.
I was alarmed, and instantly on the alert.
"There, that is a trap, that square hole there !"
said the voice of Ellen Lucas "it's only four feet
deep—but look sharp when you jump down,
for he is a devil !"
I immediately saw what an egregious dupe I
had been. Hero was I caught like a badger in
his hole ; yet I determined to give them a double
again. •And for that, areh-traiteress,"—and
the rest was thought—not spokon.
Springing across the vault to the place behind
the still, where was the vent in the wall, I crept
into it, with a view of making my way to the
outside ; but, close to the outer aperture, a
large stone had slipped from the upper part
—the roof, you, know, of the hole—and imped
ed my escape: Instantly—for I hoard them do -
bcending through the trap—instantly I put my
shoulder against it, and lying upon my front, I
thrust my heels ageist projecting stones on each
side, and bore my whole force against it. One
strew , b shove, and it shook; the next—it gave
way ;but that instant I felt as if a thunderbolt
had fallen upon and split me. The wall had fallen
in upon me! the vent was filled up and I lay in
th bottom of it, crushed with tons of hard
stone above ray broken bcdy Oh, the weight
—the murderous weight—of these mighty stones
crushing my very bones to powder I—l feel them
now I—they are hot—red hot I—ah I—Ormond
you houndl—will you heap them on me 1--will
you—will you—ah—a—a—ah—
A F a quantity of fluid bublled from his month a
convulsive grin passed across his face—a strange
indefinable change came over his black, staring
eyes, and I now ho was dead.
I turned abruptly round, and beheld the soldier
standing behind me, with his terror-bleached
face in vivid contrast to his red coat and glitter
ing accoutrements. Ho had come into the room
from the ward without, hearing the voice of tte
prisoner in continuous talking, and; pausing be
hind the door, he heard nearly the whole narra
tive.
" Well, sir," said he to me, " did you ever,
hear the like of that? There's two—that is,
this hero and the other chap—must have been a
pair of dredfullest villains—"
" Yes, my good man they form two very ex
cellent instances—the one of vlllnny from un
governed passion, the other from depraded and
perverted judgment. But yen don't understand
these things."
