to it; and Of course, what you along the gal
lsries are to you nothing but shadows and dreams
Have your promise ;"
was unable to make any other reply than to
seize his hand, and burst into tears. How got
from the caverns to the face of the cliff, how
thence to the beach, the secluded hamlet, and
sleeping village, does really seem to my memory
like vision. On the way across the downs, Le-
roy stopped once or twice, more for the sake of
resting my aching limbs than of taking breath
or repose himself During those intervals, he
quietly remarked to me how prejudiced and un-
fair we had all Of been to him; that as for
Charlotte he considered her as a child a little
sister, almost even as a baby plaything. She
was not the woman for him; he for his part liked
girl with little more Of the devil about her.
No doubt he could have carried her off: and no
doubt she would have loved him desperately a
fortnight afterwards. But when he had once got
her, what should he have done with such blue
eyed milk land water angel as that Nothing
serious to annoy us had ever entered his head
And my father ought not quite forget the source
of his own fortune, and hold himself aloof from
his equals; although he might be lying quietly in
harbOr at present. Really it was a Joke that,
instead of eloping with the bride, he should be
bringing home the eloped bridegroom
tainted when he carried me into my fathers
house, and remembered no more than his tenn
porary adieu. But afterwards, all went on slow
ly and surely. My father and Richard became
good friends and the old gentleman acquired such
influence over him, that Leroy's pleasure trips ~
soon became rare, and finally ceased altogether
At the last rum he brought foreign wife over
with him, and nothing BESIDES Dutch woman
of great beauty and accomplishments; who, as
he said, was as fitting helpmate for him, as
Charlotte, he acknowledged, was for me. He al
so took neighboring parish church and its ap-
purtenances into favor, and settled down as
landsmen within q few miles of us. And, if our
families continue to so on the friendly way they
have done for the last few years. it seems likely
that Richard may conduct Charlotte, to enter
their names together in favorite pegister book

The Truant Girl in Male Attire---Her
MYsterious History.

On Wednesday night the gentleman who adop-
ted the girl, Eliza Ann Peacock, who some weeks
since fed from Philadelphia, disguised IN male at
tire, full account of which is published yester-
day morning, arrived in the City to claim his lost
child, her arrest having been announced TO him
by telegraph. The young truant was at the
house of Officer Wooley, in Greenwich street,
whittier he Immediately repaired, and on her see
ing her parent she rushed to his arms and evin-
ced the greatest delight. The father also seemed
almost overcome with JOY at recovering his long
lost child. The cause Of the sudden departure
OF the child from her home is explained BY her
adopted father, who states that he adopted her
about seven years ago, she having then recently
been brought to this country and being of ilegit-
innate though high foreign birth. Finding her
unusually promising, he took a deep interest in
her and gave her useful as well as an ornamen-
tai education.
For some months past she has secretly harbor-
ed the idea of returning to England for the pur-
pose of searching for her mother, of whom she
either had some indistinct recollection, or had
heard spoken of by some person at Philadelphia,
acquainted with her history. With view Of
accomplishing this purpose, knowing that ifherde-
sign was known her intentions would be thw arted
size secretly left the roof OF her friends and came
to this city, intending to labor until she could
earn sufficient to procure passage for England.
On arriving here she purchased boys clothing.
and having dressed in it, applied at various places
until she succeeded in getting employment in the
store Of Mr.. Venables, in Canal street.
Since her abrupt departure from home, the
greatest concern has been manifested by her guar
dian for her safety. Messengers were dispatch-
ed in every direction, and advertisements insert
ed ina large number of papers for her discovery.
The letter which she exhibited at various places
TO influence in procuring for her a situation, she
wrote herself Yesterday morning she, with her
parent, took the cars for Philadelphia. She has
recently been left large fortune by some family
connection living in England.-N T. Tribune,

The QttnnanS.

4 late traveller in Turkey thus describes some
of the peculiarities in the manners and customs
of the Turks:
"They abhor the hat; but uncovering the
head-which with is expression of respect
is considered by them disrespectful and indie
cent. No offence is given by keeping on a hat
in a mosque, but shoes must be left at the thresh-
old. The slipper, and not the turban, is removed
in token of respect. The Turks turn in their
toes they write from right 10 left; they mount
on the right side of horse. They follow their
guests into room, and precede them on leaving
it. The left hand is the place of honor they do
the honors of the table by serving themselves
first. They are great smokers and coffee drink
ers They beckon by throwing back the hand in
stead of throwing it toward them. They cut
the hair from the head. They sleep in their
clothes. They look upon beheading a more
disgraceful punishment than strangling they
deem our short and close dresses as indecent
our shayen chins mark of efeminacy and servi.
tude. They resent an inquiry after their wives
as an insult. They commence their wooden
houses at the top, and the upper apartments art
frequently finished before the lower ones are clo
sed in. They regard dancing as theatrical per
formance, only to be looked at and not mingled
in, except by slaves. Lastly, their morning
habit is white; their sacred color green thei
Sabbath day is Friday: and interment follows
Immediately on death"

Touching Incident,

The st. Louis Democrat Of the oath ult. con-
tains the following heart-rending account:-On
last Tuesday six or eight convictS were started
off for the penitentiary. They were handcufRed
first, and then blacksmith sent for, who rivet-
ed them in couples with heavy iron.-Afterwards
they were marched from the prison hall into the
Office, to await there the arrival of the coach.
1t was huniliating spectacle and the dogged
eye and burning cheek Of more than one prisoner
told that a tender cord was touched amid all the
surrounding obduratenesS. But there was pas
sage in the scene which was imbued with pecu-
liar feelings of another kind. Among the c. imi-
nails was Daniel Cullen, convicted of the foul mur-
der of his own wife, and sentenced to term of
ninety-nine years in the penitentiary-a prisoner
for ife.-Shortly before the arrival of the coach,
a woman, bowed and decrepid with years, and
bearing An infant in her arms, entered the eff &C
hesitatingly. Scanning the faces of the crowd,
her eye fell finally upon Cullen, and with shrek
of recognition pain and half joy it appeared, she
ran to him, and fell weeping his breast. 1t
was his mother, come to bid him farewell, and
show him his own child for the last time. The
scene was moving one. The man at first was
ashamed to give way TO his feelings, and for a
while demonstrated gently with his old mother as
she fondled with him. At last, however, nature
could contain itself no longer-he fell back upon
his seat and cried like child. The marshal and
jailor, with all their familiarity with distresseS
of the kind, found a difficulty in mastering their
own promptings. When the conveyance arrived
it required no little exertion to part the mother
from, he SON

Snapped in his sturdy hand.
Among the foe, with that high scorn
Which laughs at earthly fears,

His dagger on the spears.
They hewed the hauberk from his breast,
The helmet from his head,
They hewed the hands from off his limbs,
From every vein he bled.

AuornEa RAIL RoAD.--We see it an
nounced in the St. Louis Republican that a
company has been formed in that city, un-
der the general Rail Road Law, for the pur-
pose of constructing Rail Road from Yves
ton to st. Joseph. This is regarded as a
favorable movement for the Weston and St.
Louis Rail Road. These two roads con-
s,ructed, uniting ST. Loui, and st. Jo-
seph, passing through the richest tier Of
counties in the State, would be grand inn
provement for our country, and our great
commercial metropolis. Will not the friend.
of the Weston and st. Louis Road bestil
themselves in its behalf, and let the work
be started. Private advices from st. Loui,
are favorable, and important aid will NJ
doubt be given by her capitalists.
