THE LAST VOYAGE.
by MRS. OPIE.

We cannot fail to observe as we
advance in life, how vividly our car
liest recollections rcsur to us, and
this consciousness is accompanied by
a melancholy pleasure, when we are
deprived of those who arc most ten
dcrly associated with such remcm-
brances. because they bring the below
ed dead "bcfore our minds eye :"
and bcguile the loneliness of the
present hour, by visions of the past
In such visions | now often love to in
dulge, and in one of them, a journey
to Y was recently brought before
me, in which my ever indu!gent father
permitted me to accompany him when
| was yet but a child.
As we drove through CT vii
lagc within three miles of Y, he
directed my attention to a remarkable
rising, or conicai mound Of earth on
the top Of the tower ofC---r,church.
He then kindly explained the cause Of
this singular, and Distinguishing ap.
pcarancc, and told me, the traditiona-
ry anccdotc, connected with it; which
now. in my own words, | am going
TO communicate to my readers.
Ii is generally supposed, that great
! grief makes the heart so scliishly alb

Bertha-lhc story that she lived at
CT, a village three miles from
y in N, and was betrothcd
to the mate of trading vessel, with
the expectation Of marrying him, when
he had gained money sufficient by re-
peated voyages, to make their union
consistent with prudence.
IN the meanwhile, there is reason
to believe that Bertha was not idle
but contrived to earn money herself
in order to expedite the hour of he
marriage and at length, her lover
(whom shall call William) though
there was no reason for him to contin
nc his scafaring life, bat at the end o
one voyage more, he should be abl'
TO marry the woman Of his choice
and engage in some less dangcrou
employment, in his native village.
Accordingly, the next time tina

AUTHENTIC ANEcporE-When,

AUTHENTIC ANEcDorE When, during the
late war, Admiral Warren was lying in the
Chesapeake, Capt. Smith was sent by Comma.
dore Stewart, then a, Norfolk, TO nerociia:.ss an
exchange Of prisoners. The news had just
arrived al the capture of the JAVA, and the Adj
miral, speaking Of ,hateven,, asked Capt Smith
how it happened that our friga,es were SO sue,
cessiul in taking theirs. Capt. S. answered
that he knew no reason for it unless it was that
we fought better. NO." said the Admiral,
"that cannot be; but the reason is, that two
thirds Of your crews are British seamen."--
"Then," replied Cap. Smith, "the Other third,
being Americans, makes the whole difference"
The Admiral attempted no further explanations
or argument on the knot,y subject
We doubt il the records Of wit can produce a
more happy repartee. II was prompt and
sharp; and, at the same time, goes to the very
heart and marrow of The question. II is one
of those pushes that can neither be parted nor
returned. 1t closed the game; the Admiral had
not another move.

several persons are on their way to the Neither

tages, as an inducement to engage in the pro-
ject, have been offered 10 the Dutch Govern
ment; and it is said that the King himself has
entered into II with so much earnestness, that
he has composed long memoir, TO point out
its probability of success and ihe benefits with
which i will be attended. A vessel has been

have lately visited the garrison of the

think they can show to strangers, is to pre-
sent them with pipes and coffee. We were

July Is. Last evening a very severe
fire broke ont in Smyrna, which destroyed
nearly all Of the bazaars. 1t commenced
about q o'clock in the evening, and was moi
extingnished until nearly 3 o'clork in the
morning. All our men and the crew OF the
Warren were sent on shore to assist them,
and got pretty well intoxicated. The Aus
trians, Dut'hmen, French, and Englshmen,
all took the weather side of the fire, where
they were of no use at all. Our men all
went to leewaId of it, and after pulling
down three or four houses soon got it un-

some present from the Bashaw on account
of his assisting them.

chor off the city of Scio, which is so com
pletely in ruins that there are not more
than lC0 houses standing. 1t was here
that in the year 1921 the most horrd mas
sacre ever known took place. In one day
10000 were put to death, and the once
hourishing city OF Scio, which could equip
100 ships, was completely destroyed.
