THE
NOCTURNAL SEP

One summer, while at Baltimore on a
pleasure excursion, peculiar circumstances
suddenly rendered it necessary that should
set sail for St. Thomass. / Immediately
proceeded to make inquiry about a vessel
to convey me there, and found that there,
was none bound to that quarter, except a
small schooner, which had very inferior &C
commodations, and was commanded by a
person of rude manners and disobliging
temper. However, as my business admitted
of no delay, engaged passage in her, and
put my luggage OH board, and desired the
captain to send me notice, whenever he was
ready to sail, that might Immediately join
him.
Ipassed two DAYS in that anxious and un-
settled state of mind which the prospect OF
going to sea generally produces, and went
dcspondingly to bed the second night, after
having ascertained that the wind was unfa-
vourable to the prosecution of my intended
VOYAGE. A loud knocking at my chamber
door awakened me from profound sleep,
about an hour before dawn. was on the

up the anchor-Captain Burder sent me to

started from bed, and having dressed
myself as quickly as possible, accompanied
the messenger to the wharf, and embarked

reached the schooner. Her captain was SO

"That doesn't concern you," replied he
abruptly; 81 suppose your birth is ready

until we cleared the mouth OF the harbour,
which we at last accomplished with much
difficulty, for the wind was as directly ahead
as it could blow.
