CHAPTER II
THE MIDNIGHT DEPARTURE

THE MIDNIGHT DEPARTURE.
A little before midnight of the same day our
story opens, party of eight persons, four of
either sex, were slowly and silently msving
across small opening to the right bank Of
the Maumee, where a clumsily built barge of
middling size was fastened to the shore
Seven Of this party of eight were laden with diff
ferent household articles, which they imme-
diately deposited among numerous others of
similar character which had been previously
brought off TO the boat from their dwelling
and being now all collected on board, and
having with them all they intended taking
from their deserted homes, they forthwith
loosed the boat and pushed it out into the
middle of the stream, where, for the time be.
ing, it was allowed to float quietly down on
the bosom of the current.
This party, as the reader has doubtless con-
jectured, consisted Of our young hero, Eden
Stanforth, and his father, mother, sister, un-
Gle, and aunt, aud Mabel Duncan, and Peleg
White.
Having Aoated short distance down the
stream, Eden took counsel with his uncle and
father, and it was decided the boat should be
brought to an anchor some little distance from
the shore, and that one should remain on the
watch till morning-when, should there be no
signs of the enemy, a warning message could
be sent to the inha abitants above, which, in
| their haste to effect their own safety, cur voy-
ayers had neglected to do at first
- take shame to myself" said Eden in a
whisper, for it was not deemed prudent TO
| speak in loud tone, lest lurking enemy
| might hear the sound, and so be attracted 10
| their place of cOncealEent, " L take shame to
myself that 1 did not ride to Major Spofford's S
| and give him warning, so that he might con-
| vey the news to the next, and thus spread
| the evil tidings. and put all On their guard f"
at ought to have been done, Eden,' re-
| piled his father, "a and if il can be done with
out too great a risk, we mustn't neglect it in
the morning"
eff you think best, father, will attend to
it to night"
| "No, my son, no; you've done enough to
need rest. Two days on horseback, and only
one nights ftful sleep on the bare ground !
Go and lie down at once, and trust your uncle
Amos to watch the boat -
Eden did not require much urging TO induce
him TO seek rest for the night; and speaking
Il few quieting words to his mother, sister,
aunt, and Mabel-all Of whom were more or
less nervous and excited-he threw himself
down on loose pile of bedding, and was soon
fast asleep. ...
Not so the Othors; who were not so fatisued
as Eden, and upon whom the exciting news
had produced an effect calculated to Danish
sleep for several hours. AT the request OF
David Stanforth the father Of Eden, who had
been for years an invalid, and whose constitu-
rion was 20 broken and impaired as to render
him unable to bear any great fatigue, they

A FANTASY.

Ills told somewhere In Eastern story
That those who love once blOomed as flowers
On the same stem, amid the glory
OF Edea's green and fragrant bowers,
And that though parted here by Fate,
Yet when the glow OF life has ended,
Each soul again shall hnd Its mate,
And In one bloom again be bletded.
II this be true, how sweet the vision
Which Fancy sometime weaves for me,
That tsou, amid those bowers elysian,
My lovely flower mate will be,
And oh how oft, when time and distance,
Perchance, may part thee from my side,
VIII repine for that existence
Where Fate can ne'er our lives divide
