A Sailors Legend.

"Speak up, Tom Hardy" said the fairy, +" say
what you want to make you contented captain
of the fo'castle. Pl give you four wishes, pro-
vided they are for as many different things
You might think Tom would be for a moment
startled; but beautiful lady, with profusion
of hair and very little clothing, was not quite
the thing to frghten him. "Thank We, marm,'
said Tom, touching his cap I'm all ready,
and much ableeged foyer" "Then, fire away!"
said the fairy. First and foremost" said Tom,
" wants plenty of grog." That you shall
have" replied the fairy, smiling " real Jamaica,
pine apple fayor-as much as you can swim i'm
You sec the fairy was accustomed to sailors
" Them" proceeded Tom, rubbing his hands,
"let US have heaps of baccy-bird's 's-eye and
cavendish mixed" "An right, Tom, said the
lady; "heaps of baccy, bird 's-eye and cayendish
mixed you shall have" "By Jove, you are a
brick" says Tom; you are about the best friend
ever had. Lookye here, my beauty" says he,
getting up as if he was going to shake hands
with the fairy. Hands off, Mr.. Tom," excam-
ed she "go on wishing. You are only half
way through your bargain" Well' says Tom,
"what next wants, begging your pardon, see
ing you're lady, -" is plenty of pretty girls
when goes ashore" "Very well, replied the
fairy, laughing like anything "you shall have
them, too, and I'll throw some 6ddlers into the
bargain. Tom was delighted. Z" By the Lord
Harry y he exclaimed, I'm happy now. l say,
chum, how about not knowing what was good
for me? Here's grog galore, heaps of bacey,
and lots of Sweethearts. I'm content" " But
come, come, Tom" urged the fairy, ''fulil your
part of the contract You must wish once

oat Tom Hardy, must really?" ayes; come,
be quick" she replied. "Well, then" said he,
"give US more grog" "Your chum was in the
right said the fairy; "you don't know what
you want. You ask for more grog when have
already promised you enough to swim in and
you have forgot to ask to be put ashore from
the frigate. You are a good -for-nothing old
growl, and so you will remain to the end of your
days" With that she disappeared, and it is
true enough Tom Hurdyis as big growl as ev-
er ehewed qud on forecaste, though he

him another chance he would know what to ask

A Terrible Revenge.
IN TWO CHAPTERS.
CHAPTER /.

CHAPTER I.
OF our pleasant party at The Elms last Christ
mas, Kate OHara was the beauty, far away.
remember our little silence of admiration as she
came into the drawing-room just before dinner
was announced, (for your prima donna does not
care to enter until the house is full,) and the
great sensation her arrival made, though she
could not have approached more quietly or
meekly if she had been the cat. Half dozen
young ladies who, before her advent, looked
pretty enough, suddenly became quite uninter-
estng to corresponding number of bachelors,
and even we married gentlemen paused awhile
in our talk of short-horns to steal an admlring
glance. We had resumed our bovine conversa-
ton, and were diverging, if | remember Alright,
in the direction of the Prince Consort's pigs,
when my wife came up to me and whispered:
"That's little Kate O'Hara."
Why did my cheek glow and my heart throb!
Why did the name of one whom had not seen
since she was a little child recall at once the
crowning happiness and chief confusion of my
life
1t shall be told, terribly, anon.
The six bachelors "entered themselves im-
mediately for the "O'Hara stakes" as one OF
them was subsequently pleased to designate the
dreaming Of Loves young dream; and two OF
them-a MILDLY and an under graduate-got the
start, and made the running at the most reckless
pace ever saw. Indeed, the sailor proposed on
the third evening, and was declined with such
good -natured cheerfulness, that he seemed to be
rather pleased than otherwise; whereas the col
legian, who was of a poetical turn, took his re-
fusal, the day following, very seriously to heart,
and passed the remaining part of his visit in
sorrow and the shrubberies. Two other COM
petitors, unattached, Except to Kate) were dis
posed of at an archery ball and the race then
lay between Charley Northcote, captain of hus-
sars, and Philip Lee, curate.
1t was grand set-to-" hands up" l can tell
you. If Charley had the handsomest face, and,
playing With bullet pendent from his watch
chain, but which had previously resided in his
leg, could talk of the time q when | was in the
Crimea" Philip had the more intellectual ex-
preston, and had won at Oxford the under
graduates "bue ribbin"-the Newdegate prize
for English verse. Charley, it is true, when we
were skating on the lake, produced upon the
ice such wondrous eagles, as Audubon never
dreamed of; but he was, on the other hand, the
first to own, when the frost broke up, that, % in
a really good thing with hounds, there was not
one of them could catch the parson." For
Philip, though he did not hunt in his own par
ish, could =" go like bird out of it, whenever
he could get mount.
