SUBJECTS OF each country security of person and pro-

two treaties substantially agree In two important
items, however, they differ. Our treaty STIMULATES
that " free bottoms make free goods'' and also de-
scribes and limits articles conraband OF war These
provisions, so favourable to neutral commerce. and
the freedom ofthe seas, find no place in the British
treaty; on the other hand, this latter stpulates in
behalf OF the manufactures and produce of Great
Britain, that they shall be admitted into Colombia
on the same terms in British, as in Colombian
vessels; and reoiprocally, that articles of the

TIE DISSOLUTION.

TIE DISSOLUTION.
1t was in the dead of night, and solemn S.
lcnce reigned over all the landscape: not
sound was to be heard, save alternately the
harsh notes of the owl, as he sat screaming
upon some withered elm in the midst of the
forest, and now and then distant peal of
thunder, as it rolled along the northern sky.
but at SO great a distance as to be scarcely dis
cernable amid the rustings of the gentle breeze
as 1t blew through the thick tops Of the neigh
bouring trees, that ALFRED was called to watch
by the sick bed Of one who, of all others, was
the nearest to his heart
Six months had scarcely vet passed awav
since his nuptials with HARRIET; and during
that time her health had been constantly on a
decline. Physicians had been frequently called,
but none OF them had been successful towards
effechng her recovery, or could even account
for her complaint, till her debllltated frame prov
ed to them the painful certainty that she was fast
wasting by consumption. For some weeks pre-
Vlous to her dissolution, she had as are usual in
this complaint, intervals Of apparent GONZALES
cence during these periods she would converse
with cheerfuness, and had even manifested hope
that she would yet recover her health
She was enjoying one Of these intervals the
evening IN which | have before mentioned her;
she was even more cheerful than she had been
Tor some time before, and from her uncommon
ease OF body, it was thought she might continue
SO for some time. That she might not be dis
turbed by too much company ID the room, it was
Judged prudent that she should not have more
than one to attend her during the night, and AL
FRED considered the one most suitable for
that purpose
The clock had chimed twelve, and no altera-
ton had, to appearance, taken place She had
conyersed freely till he became apprehensiye
that she was going beyond her strength, and he
cautioned her to take little rest, to which She
submitted, and appeared to be settling into a
calm sleep. All was then silent ALFRED sat
Eliminating on his present painful situation, for
he feared that he would soon be deprived Of all
he held dear in this world, but yet hoped that
she might be permitted to continue with him for
some weeks, and even dwelt upon the thought,
that she might yet recover her former health :
for the mind Of man is always induced to hope
for the best, even though the worst is apparent
y the only prospect before him.
Full of these visionary thoughts, ALFRED sat
silent as the house of death, till deep groan
from HARRIET drew bis attention to her bed
side He advanced towards her, and she held
out her hand as if to take his for the last time
he took it, felt her pulse, and observing faint
ness, and irregulariy in its beating, turned to go
and call up the other inmates Of the house; but
she told him it would be in vain; it would soon
be over with her; that it would only make dis
turbance, and she wished to die in peace.
She told him not to grleve for her death, that
she was going to better world. She enjolnea

misery, however, soon disturbed by female
voice singing near him. He started up and gazed
round him though the notes were sweet, they
were wild, broken, and frenzied and Ivan, with
chilling horror, beheld Ulrica, his once beloved VI
RIGA, leaning over the edge of tremendous peak of
the rock In state Of mind little superior to hers,
knsky began ascending the ftghtful eminence on
which the phantom stood-for it appeared almost
impossible for human footsteps to have climbed the
summit of the cliff: The projecting crags at times
hid her from his view but the sound of that voice,
whose every tone a fresh stab to his heart,
guided the unhappy soldier to the spot.
The moon now shone brightly through the clouds;
and he paused moment to contemplate the dread.

hair hoated loosely round her shoulders, fantastcal
~ wreathed with wild flowers ivy, and sprgs of

stern and desperate; her white garments waved in
the blast and she remained motonless, gazing
on the foaming pillows that ragged beneath herfeet
But she was alone. All his former affection rushed
over the soul of knsky; and, springing forward
he threw himself at her feet, exclaiming ssOh Cod

for that ;" And here she clenched her hands, and
burst into deIirious laugh. Her child occurred to
the mind of Knsky and in a tone of horror he said,

ceased her relation, and Ivan, who had listened to
her tale with fearless horror, started up and rushed
from the house.
