Arthur Ilayning, a month or two the senior,
was of a more self.rel)ing nature and firmer ehar•
&e'er than the other. In uninterrupted effort he
pursued his work, never looking up, never mak
ing a remark. vddona even answering a stray ob
servation of his friend But when the hour as
signed for the close of his studies had arrived, a
ehange took place in his manner lie was gay( r
more active and enquiring than his volatile com
panion. The books were packed away, the wri
ting desk locked up; with a stout stick in his
hand. a strong hammer in his p... ket, and a can
vass bag slung over his shoulders. he started off
on an exploring expedition among the neighbor
ing 11:114 ; while Winnington Harvey arming
himself with a green gauze net, and his coat
sleeve glittering with a multitude of pins, accom
panied him in his walk—diverging for long
ar.ac.is in seareh of butterflies, which he brought
bark in triumph, scientifically transfixed upon
the leaves of his pocket book On their return
home, their after-dinner employment consisted
in arranging their specimens. Arthur spread out
n the clay floor of the passage the different
rocks he had gathered in hi 4 walk. He -broke
them into minute fragments, examined th em
through his magnifying glass, sometimes diosolv•
ed a portion of them in aquafortis, tasted them,
smelt them and finally threw them away; not so
the more fortun'ate naturalist : with him the mere
tout -suit was a delight, and the victims of his net
a perpetual source of rejoicing. He fitted them
into a tray, wrote their names and families on
na r row slips of paper in the neatest po,silde
hand, and laid away his box of treasures as if
they were the choicest specimens of diamonds or
rubies

of fortune—"
"And that justifies yott in putting it to death?",
Th.re you go with your absurd German phi.
hut hropiea ; though, by the by, love for a but
tei
tetfy searcely deserves the name. But think of ,
111- inducement, think of the glory of verifying,
with your own eyes the identity of a creature
tle , :tritiesi in books ; think of the interest at
stake; and, above all, and this ought to be a
' settling argument to you, think of the enjoyment
it will give my Cousin Lacy to have her speci
men chest quite glled ; and when you are mar
ried to her—"
" Dear Winnington. do hold your tongue
How can I venture toAuok forward to that for
many years ? I have only a hundred a year.—
She has nothing. — Arthur sighed as he spoke.
" How much do you require ? When do you
expect to be rich enough ?"
" When I have three times my present for- 1
tune—and that will be—who can tell ? I may
suddenly d•ocover a treasure like Aladdin's, and
then, -Wlntiington, my happiness will be per
feet
" I think you should have made acquaintance
with the magician, or even got possession of the
ring, bef lo re you asked her hand," said Winning
tuu liariey with a ehangtd tone "She is the
nicest cid iu tht, world, and loves you with all
her heart ; but if you have to wait till fortune
entries—"
" She will wait also, willingly and happily.—
She has told me so. I love her with the fresh
nest, ..f a heart that has never loved anything
el-c I love you too, Winnington for her sake ;
and we had better not talk any more on the sub
ject, for I don't like your perpetual objeetions to
the engagement."
Winnington, as usual yielded to the superiori
ty of his frit nd, and was more affectionate in his
manner t•. him than ever, as if to blot out the
remembran'•e of what be bad recently sail They
went on in silence with their respective works,
uud chipped stones, and impaled butterflies till a
late hour
' Don't he alarmed, W;nningion," said Ar
tl.iir, with x smile, as he lighted his bed candle
that night "I am twenty-one and Lucy not
nineteen The genii of the lamp will be at our
bidding before we are very old, and you shall
have apartments in the palace, and ho appointed
resident physician to the princess." '
" With a salary of ten thousand a year, nod
my board and washing."
A seat at my right hand, whenever I set

" Good That's a bargain," vaid Wilmington,
laughing, and they parted to their rooms.

" Come along "
" Ila, stop !" cried Winnitigtoo, laying his
hand on Arthur's shoulder. " Look there."
They looked, and saw a girl who came between
them and the light, with long hair falling over

hand , her dress was close fitting to her shape, a
light pelisse of green silk edged with IA ribbons,

" Now beautiful," said Winnington in a whis

doing? Who is she? What to her Dame?"
The apparition turned half round, and reveal

Winnington still open-mouthed, open-eyed, ga

" A ni c e enough girl," said Arthur coldly ;

" I shall tiever be hungry again," said Win

may go if you like Here I stay in hopes of an
other view."
" Good night then," replied Arthur, and rap
idly walked away.
How long the astonished Winoington remain

at the rectory. The old woman as Arthur had
warned him, had gone home • Arthur let him

‘• Well !•' he inquired "have you found out the

" All about her—.but for beavea'a sae some

"I thought yoe were never to be hungry

The companions were not now so 000stantly
together as before Their studies underwent nn
change; but their evening occupations were dif.

believe that the Papilio had become a gregarious

" That's u.it much," said Arthur still moodily

August and September passed away, and Oct

momat things took under that sonorous nomen

called an urtica, and bow suggestive of happiness
and Gretna Green when a flower could be declar
ed to be cryptogamic.
" See what a curious root this piece of broom
has," said Winnington, one night, on his return
from the Manor, and laid his specimen on the
table.
Arthar hardly looked up from his book, and
made some short reply.
" It took Ellen and me tea minutes, with all
our force, to pull it up by the roots. We' bad
no knife, or I should merely bare cut of the
stalk ; but
,errxi now that the light falls on it,
what curious shining earth it grows in ; with odd
little stories twisted up between the fibres' Did
you see anything like it ?" Arthur bad bed
his eyes on the shrub during this speech: He
stretched forth his hand and touched the soil
still clinging to the roots—he put a small por
tion to his lips, —hit face grew deadly pale.
" Where did you get this ?" he said.
" Down near the waterfall—not a hundred
yards from this."
" On whose land !—on the glebe ?" said Ar
tar, speaking with a parched mouth, and still
gazing on the broom
"Dues Warleigh know of this ?" he went on,
r, or the clergyman ? Winningtop ! no one must
be told, tell Ellen to be silent ~but she is not
aware perhaps Does she suspect ?"
" What? what is there to suspect, my dear
Arthur? Don't you think that you work too
much?" ho added, looking oompaissiouately on
the dilated eye and pale cheek of his companion.
•‘ You must give up your studies for a day or

poor common thing, but I thought the way its
roots were loaded rather odd. Ellen will perhaps
be disappointed, for we intended to plant it in
her garden, and I only asked her to let neu slow

Come, give up your Looks and learning fur a day

wish to know more of the Warleigha before we

" I am not going back to Oxford," said Ar
thur, " I shall take my name of the hooka."
Wiuniugtou was astooished. He was also
displeased. "We promised to visit my aunt,"
he said, " on our way back to college—Lacy will
be grieved and disappointed "
" I will send her a letter by you—l shall ex
pixie it all. I owe bee a letter already."
" Have you not aorwered that letter yet? it
came • mouth ago," said Winningtou. "Oh! if
Ellen Warleigh would write a note to me, and
let me write to her, how I would wait for her
loiters! bow I would answer them from morn to
night."
She would find you a rather troublesome
correspondent," said Arthur, watching the die
appeoranee of the last particle of the broom as it
leaped merrily in sparkles up the chummy.—
" Lucy knows that I am better employed that
telling her ten times over, that I love her better
than anything else—and that I king for wealth
principally that it may enable me to call her
mine. I shall have it soon. Tell her to be sure
of that I shall be of age in three days, thea
what the wretched driblet ay guardian now
has charge of which comes into my hands; I will

" The palace will be built," said Winningtou,
who could Dot keep anger longer, " and the plea
at your right band *ill be got ready for the res
ident physician—who in the ameatime recom
mends you to go quietly to bed, for you have
overstrung your mind with work, and your health,
dear Arthur, is not all secure."
For a moment, a touch of the old kindness
came to Arthur's heart. He shook Wianiogton's
hand. Thank you, thank you," he mid, "I
will you advise. Your 'oboe is very like
Lucy's, and so are your eyea—good sight, dear
Wilmington." And Wilmington lett the room,
so did Arthur but not for bed. A abort time
before this, a package had arrived from Hawaleigh,
and had been placed away in a dark closet under
the stairs. He looked for a moment out into the
night. The moon was in a cloud, and the wind
was bowling with a desolate sound over the bate
moor. He took down the package, and from it
extracted a spade and a pickaxe; and, seedy
opening the front door, went out. He walked

" and I'm glad be dida't get out of bed."
Meantime Winningtoo bad a dream He was
on board a beautiful boat OD the Isis. It seem
ed to move by its own force, as If it were a silver
swan; and the ripple as it went on took the form
of ninsie, and he thought it was an old tune that
he had listened to in his youth. He sat braids
Ellen Warleigh, with his hand locked in hers,
and they watched the beautiful scenery through
which the boat was gliding—past the pretty
Cherwell, past the level meadows, past the
Newnham woods, mud still the melody went on.
Then they were in a country he did not know;
there were tents of gaudy colon en the shore;
and wildeyed men in turbans and loose tunics
looked upon them. One came ou board; he was
a tall, dark Emir, with golden-sheathed scimitar
which clanked as be stepped on the seat. Win
niogton stood up and asked what the stranger
wanted: the chief answered in Arabic. but Win
nington understood him perfectly: He said he
had come to put him to death for having dared
to look upon his bride. He laid his grasp on
him as be spoke, and tore him from Ellen's side.
In the struggle Winnington fall over, and found
himself in front of the fairy boat The Arab
sat down beside Ellen, and put his arm round
her waist, and then he suddenly took the shape
of Arthur Hayning The boat seemed to flutter
its wings, and come faster on. Winnington tried
to swim to one side, but coaild not. On came
the boat, its glittering bows flashed before his
eyes —they touched him—pressed him down; he
felt the keel pass over his head; and down down,
still downward be went, and on looking up, saw
nothing but the boat above him; all was dark
where he was, for the keel seemed constantly
between him and the surface, and yet he heard
the old tune still going on It was a tune his
cousin Lucy used to play; but at last, in ris de
scent through the darkened water he got out of
hearing, and all was silent Th.• music died
sway--and suddenly he heard a scream, and Saw
Ellen struggling in the water. He made a dart
towards her with arms stretched out--sod over
turned the candle he had left on the table at the
side of his bed.

Front We New Orleans Snaclay Delta.
A ltastanoe Appropriately laded.
A friend has sent us the following paragraph,
wi.h s request that we should reprint it, which
we cheerfully do, se we happen to know some
thing of the intersted parties :
" Kevin hod O'Doherty, the Irish Exile, was
married a few days since, to Miss Kelley. of Rd.
lees, Coanty Galway, the 'Era' of the first se
ries of the Nation."
Sevin O'Dohecty was a young suregon of
splendid professional ability, who became imbued
with the republican opinions of the Young Ire
land party in '4B, and assumed a position in the
foremost ranks of the few students and writers
who composed that singularly ill fated organiza
tion.
When Mitchell offered himself up as a victim,
to prove the falsity of the British " law," and to
establish the fact that English Government was
appported in Leland by "packed jurors, perjured
sheriffs and partisan judges," it was distinctly
understood that they should deliberately commit
"treason-felony" (as the negation of Britsh
government was called,) and be tratisported to
Van Dlemen's Land, or banged one by one, no
til the people were aroused at last by the exam
ple•of their heroism and self-eaerifiee, to a sense
of national dignity and a desire for vengeance
A discussion arose as to the proper person to
be delegated to the post of honor and danger af
ter Mitebel's departure, :Ind there were many
candidates—men of fortune and talent—who
were willing to accept the title of " felon," in
the hope of awakening the apathetic populace of
the country. The bosom friends of Mitchel—
John Martin and Devin Reilly—bad the first
claim. They were both men of family, but as
Martin had been the school-fellow of Mitchel,
and was a land owner, baloved and revered by
his tenantry, and a man of 'the mildest and most
child like disposition, it was agreed that his
wish should be granted, and that one whose name
was the synonym of every virtue, should be writ
tea down a " felon," according to British law.
Martin was accordingly put forward as the Rue
oessor to Mitehel, and in doe time got transport
ed "across the seas for the term of fourteen
yam ,'
• Young O'Doherty was determined that Martin
should not go alone. He immediately started
the Tribune newspaper, and wrote treason enough
in a week to startle a whole Cabinet Council, but
it mast be remembered that "treason" in Ireland
means a profound scorn and hatred for the aris
tocratic rulers of Great Britain and their so-call
ed sovereign and real dependant—the daughter
of the House of Gulph. In a very short time
O'Doberty was arrested, of course, and sent to
Newgate. He was tried three times before the
govern meat could pack a sufficiently servile jury
to eenviet him: at last be was found guilty as&
@esteemed for fourteen years to Syhetia--so !
we beg the barbarous Cur's pardon—to Van
Diemsn's Laud. Before his final embarkment,
he was removed to Richmond prison, where
amongst his numerous visitors a lady of earnest,
almost anions manner, with deep dark eyes, and
that spiritual eoaatenanee on which Thought,
without leaving its lines, has east its shade.—
That lady was " Eva," one of the brilliant poet
esses whose genius placed the Nation newspaper
at the bead of the literary journals of Europe.
Eight years have nearly elapsed since then.

the motion which have just wade. It is Res-
(Tally kuol.ta t sir. that lir 1;', K. Kane, of Phi
ladelphia, acting under thu in,troet,ons of the
4 the Navy Departmen', tnsioly
through the gcuert , us patronagt.
of New Y..rtt, left th.. roiteti States, to May,
1853, as qv. c wITITII3II her of an
to the Arctic' region, with Qv' hutur tie purpoott
of discovering, if r—it,i,., t,, late of Sir John
Franklin, and that he rt•turasti safely in Sep•
I ten:l6er last.
Though unsucessful, w. fax au r-lator to the
fate of the English navicat.r. the czpt.lition was
eminently fortunate to other things. Its opera
tions have develop .l ne.w feAures in the Fihjai-
cal geography of the globe and will contribute
toward the illustration et tlii• r:lnetpl.:s of that
geography. They will extend the heats of hu-
man knowledge, and i. ud additional toter
eat to the pages of American history ; as
they have certainly •alr(ady rrcatly widened
the fame of the bravo and skillful Luau under
whose auspices they were produetd. and excited
the gratitude of the nation towards those gener
ous men, Messrs Gijon, ;1, of New York, and
Peabody, of London, vile contributes so much
to sustain the enterprise
In a brif account of the i•xpedition addressed
:o the Secretary of the Navy the Doctor has sust•
med up the principal features of his explorations
as follows :
1. The rerveey and cklineeti-n of the north COlllBl of

These vast developements, it will be perceived,
Mr. President, are of great value, as famishing
additional knowledge of the formation of the
globe, and as tending to a confirmation of ractig
, aimed theroies in geof t raphy. They will ' 5 / 4 18;

The legislature of !'cnos:.,ivania, Katie's na
tive State, by the resolutions %%1,1,1 I have just
presented, have exprtssed their gratifieatin with
the results of the expedition, their high estimate
of their fellow-citizen who directed its movements,
and have thanked him for the honor his career
has conferred upon his native State, and com
mended his services to the fa% °rattle notice of
Congress. The legislature of N ew V„,k , b y
nosnitnaus consent, have evinced their estimate
of the expedition by presenting its leader with a
gold medal. Complimentary resolutions have
also been passed by the legislatures of Maryland
and New Jersey. The New York Geographical
Society, and numerous other learned and scien
tific associations in different parts 'of the world,
have already manifested special inters-t in the
achievements or the Doctor. But the tcstisnoni
al which has made the deepest impression upon
hie feelings, as I learned, is aim which has come
from Lady Franklin, in the sha t le of words o f
true eloquence, thanking Lim for his heroic ef
forts in behalf of her lost husband
A complete history of th, , dibeoveries, adven
tures, and thrilling incidents of the expedition—
the stcry of what was done and suffered by its
individual members—will compose a work of the
liveliest interest. Th , . Doctor's report to the
Secretary of the Navy is tint a condensed snot
wary of the result" of the. tour, and is quite in
sufficient to gratify the public curiooity, or do
juice to the brass men who have Coffered and
sacrificed so much The Docto; however, Mr.
P res id en t, I am grad to know s . has prepared a
full narrative of the eventaraf the expedition—
properly el itnitia t ing esold feature, and has placed
it'in the bands of Mesas. Childs db Petersen, of
Philadelphia, for Pahileation. It will compose
a work of two vellWrnes octavo, of about nine
hundredis to be printed on the finest pa

and be enotetlished with three hundred wood -cuts,
twenty-two steel engravings, and cantata three',
