earnest longing did she pray for his re-
turn, and then a thought of ntter hope
lessness of that wish would crush her to
the earth. Her nature was changed
That proud spirit had given place to meek
OF ever seeing her husband or her son
had fed entirely.
One bright morning in June, q haggard
unshaven being issued from a small tav-
ern in one Of our western villages, carry
ing bundle of considerable size, and
took his way towards the woodlands to
the North. He travelled until about mid
day, when being weary, he laid himself
down under thicket and fell asleep.
| About sundown he awoke, and raising
! himself on his elbows, he cast his eyes
down along the edge of the thicket, when
his attention was suddenly arrested by
the sight of dirty, haggard and pale
looking boy. He looked down between
the bushes, and to his infinite surprise he
beheld the stalwart form OF gypsy whom
he had seen before in England. A thought
flashed across his mind, and taking an
other glance at the boy, he recognized in
him his son. His heart leaped wildly. His

forward and embrace his boy. He
thought again, however, and paused.
Thoughts ran like lightning through his
fevercd brain. He knew not how many
gypsy murderers there were around the
boy, nor what it was thier purpose to do.
He concluded to lie still until he could as
certain their number and intentions. He
heard them counting over their gold. Oc
casionally he caught glimpse of some
new face. Al length they began to dis
perse in various directions, apparently to
their avocation of stealing. Finally but
two stout looking men were left. He
could bear the suspense no longer. He
could still see his boy sittirg on the groud
looking anything but like the son OF Rich
ard Romer, and yet he was no other.
Richard thought of Louisa with affection
for the first time since the death of his
two daughters, and longed TO be with
her. Carefully primiug a double bar
relied pistol, with which he had prepar-
ed himself, lie rushed forward and
stood confronting the two gypsies face
to face. " DE-" he gasped. and in a
moment the two gipsies lay sprawling on
the ground. He clasped the boy to his
heart aud spoke. The boy recognized
the pnternal voice, though not the hag-
gard countenance, smiled. and claspeG
his arm around his fathers neck. Rich
ard pressed the boy closer to his heart.

dressed himself, and soon was on his
way to England and Louisa.
The meeting can better be imagined
than described.

continued Edward; but what adorns it
most, and will make the happiest of men,
is concealed in this paper" She opened
it confusedly. It was the wedding.ring
folded in the bill of exchange. Pauline
recognised il at the first glance, aud cast
down her eyes blushing. Edward fell at
her feet. She sank down. Ito deceive
me SO 70 she whispered.
When all was explained, Pauline's mo-
ther embraced her, while Jeanette toss>.
ed her pretty head. She endeavored to
conceal her vexation. but her marriage
day was the commencement of her matri-
monial i'll humor.
Several years passed. Edward found
to his antonishment that he had been
blind, that his wife was really handsome:
and his domestic happiness increased ey.
cry day. Domestic happiness nevermade
its home with Jeanpette. Pauline was
surrounded with blooming children. The
sisters seldom saw each other for Pau

dren-Jeannette only for the great world.
Here she found sufficient amends for the
only true happiness OF marriage. as long
as her beauty daily attracted new admi-
rers, and as long as her husbands riches
afforded the means of expensive luxuries.
But, alas her charms began to vanish
she grew sickly-the affection of husband

Monsieur gambled away her jewels
They began with complaining and ended
with reproaches. AT length, one morn>

most tender forbearAnce but her con-
science was at ease violent cough en-.

CHAPTER V.
THE SEARCH.

One morning the boy was missing
Each fixed the blame of his removal upon
the other, and for some time believed the
signs Of alarm manifested by each other,
TO be but devices for concealing their de-
ceitful deed. But it could not long be
mistaken that both were in earnest in the
interest manifested in regard to the loss
of the boy. Richard was no longer in
animate. He never showed so much &C.
tivity in his life. He seemed to have &C.
quired a sagacity of wondrous depth
He soon fixed the crime upon the gypsies.
Search was made far and wide. He spent
half his fortune in rewarding persons en-
ployed to aid him in his search.
Louisa rent her clothes and hair with
madness. Her eyes were red with tears.
Richard would at this time have broken
the bargain of separation and Louisa felt
much inclined to do so, but her pride for
bade her to retract the rash steps she had
taken. The search was fruitless. The
Gypsies could no where be found, and
Richard relapsed into n melancholy ten
times more grievous than before, appa'
rcntly more selfish. but really more care
less Of self and everything else. Often
did he wish for death, but dared not to
strike the blow, for he feared the dread
eternity that awaited him. Louisa was
removed to her fathers, and Richard re,
solved to betake himself to the wiids ol
America, and shut himself out from the
world forever.

Remarkable TIeroism Of a Boy Seven
Years Of Age.


Under this heading the San Francisco
True Californian, Of June l4th, has the
following narrative:
The U. S. sloop of war. Decatur, which
arrived in this spot yesterday, has brought
intelligence Of one Of the most inhumNn
atrocities that can be found in the annals
Of Indian warfare. On the morning Of
the 9th Of October, 1855, while Mr.. Har
vey II. Jones. n settler on the banks Of
the White River, in Washington Terrific
ry, was lying sick in his bed, party Of
Indians commenced firing on his house,
and killed Mr.. Jones at the first yolley.-
Mrs Jones, who was eating breakfast at
the time Of the assault, Immediately re-
turned the fire of the Indians with q ma
Wy revolver, and after having succeed in
wounding one of them in the foot, a.
herself wounded in the side, and thereby
disabled from making any further resis-
tance. Immediately upon her ceasing to
FIRE upon them, the Indians approached
and set Ere to the house.
At this juncture lad named John J.
King, who is child of Mrs. Jones by a
former marriage, and but seven years Of
age, inquired of his mother what he
should do. She directed him to take his
brother and sister-the former two and
the latter four years of age-and endea-
vor to fnd shelter at the house of Mr..
Thomas, who resided two miles distant.
The little fellow Immediately complied
with the request of his mother, taking the
infant on his back and his sister by the
hand, and although an Indian exploded
four caps at him, and was only prevented
from further efforts by popular super
stition of his tribe, succeeded in reaching
his destination, only to be disappointed
by finding that Mr.. Thomas himself had
fed with his family, and was nowhere to
be found.
The brave boy then continued his way
down the river for another mile, when he
was met by friendly Indian, who took
the children in his canoe, and covering
the two younger with his blankets, pro
ceeded to Seattle, where they arrived
next day, and were received on board the
Decatur, which brought them to this
place. After the escape of the children,
the Indians dragged Mrs. Jones from the
house by the hair, and killed her by a
blow Of an axe on the temple. The body
Of Mr.. Jones was consumed with the
house. This statement has been furnish
ed us by Mr.. John Small, brother oil
Mrs. Jones. The children were treated
with the greatest kindness by Captain
Gansevoort, and Lieuts. Morris and
Drake, and the other officers and the crew
of the Decatur.

THE DESTROYER.

The'streets are sprinkled with lime.
Everything that smells or even looks un.
pleasant is being removed. An epidemic
is raging with fearful violence. Mothers
tremble for their children. A physician
street. He stops at the door of house
Of moderate size, and Of neat and tasteful
appearance.
Nearly half an hour afterwards he ap-
pears on the porch together with Richard
and Louisa Romer, the former appearing
calm but sorrowful. the latter in a state
OF intense excitement.
"Gh God. can nothing be done to
save them 2" she exclaims in the widest
agony.
The physician, knowing that before an
hour passed, one. if not both Of their
daughters would be cold in death, re-.
piled:
'' The boy is not in danger, but the two
little girls cannot recover"
Louisa wrung her hands and raised her
eyes imploringly to heaven. then resting
her forehead on Richards shoulder, wept
bitterly. Richard leaned his head against
the door cheek and wepl in silence.

the Oldest child departed to the bosom Of
Him who gave it. and in two hours that
Of the youngest followed it to the same
long and peaceful home.
Richard could not endure this. His
heart was crushed. He shed no tear, but
Immediately settled down into a state Of
melancholy, which We dare not call in
sanity, but which rendered him dead to
everything around him, and made him
not the same alfable and useful Richard
Romer, but being immovable in him

his hopeless grief. The only object of
his notice was his remaining child, a
bright-eyed boy. three years Of age. On
this boy he had concentrated all the love,
interest and affection that ever his heart
contained.
Louisa. though at first unable to res
train her feelings and actions within any
reason able bounds, gradually became
reconciled to her loss.

Aneodoto Of James buchanan.

A side from his superior statesmanship
and his admitted competency for the Pres
sidency. it's not an exaggerated praise
to affirm that no man in the United States
enjoys a more WRsmllied personal reputa.
tion than James Buchanan. When vi.
psrs assail him, they gnaw a file. Be.
fore his unspotted exeellency the grizzly
form OF Calumny shrinks abashed into
her cayerns. In proof Of the eminent
perOonal uprightness of James Buchanan
many interesting facts might be stated.
For the present q single one will suffice.
When Mr.. Buchanan first entered Con.
gress, it was the universal custom for
Senators and Representatives, not only
to frank their own correspondence, but
to grant their frank freely TO friends,
whenever requested. The rates Of postage
being much higher than At present.
large amount Of revenue was kept out Of
the Golfers of Uncle Sam. On certain
occasion leading friend Of Mr.. Bu-
chsnan approached him, handing him q
large letter or packet. requesting his
frank as Representative in Congress.
Is the letter on public business, -
asked Mr.. Buchanan, turning /. In his
hand.
at is letter ON private business, -
said the other. ga letter containing M
enclosure to my wife. As the postage
will amount to fall one dollar, am anx.
ious to save il"
"sir," said Mr.. Buchanan with marked
emphasis. "if you are poor, will giyo
you one dollar-but so long as am con-
nected with the Government. by NO act
of mine viii | ever consent 70 dehaud the
National Treasury out Of one cent Of its
revenue. Never. cir. never, never"
And this was Characteristic Of the
man. The same uprigbtness has he exs
hibited throughout his entire public ca.
reSr. So tenacious, We learn. was Mr..
Buchanan over the just interest Of the
Government, that he would not frank n
letter of his own when on private business.
He that 10 faithful in the least Is faith
ful also in the greatest. To such man
can the Presidency Of the United States
be committed with safety.
