HUNTED 10 DEATH.

In the latter part of the year 1S4-
duel was fought in the neighbor-
hood of London, between o Lieu
tenant Belfont and the head of O
mercantine house named Gray, (for
obvious reasons the names are ficti-
tious, in which the latter was shot
through the heart, and as, upon
the examination of the seconds be-
fore the police magistrate, foul play
had been alleged on the part of the
victor, our virtuous town rang with
indignation, the seconds were COM
mitted, afterward tried at the Old
Bailey, and I believe sentenced to
death for murder, although that SEN
tence was afterward committed to o
heightened Imprisonment, with hard
labor. AS for the lieutenant, not
withstanding the Government offered
o large reward for his capture, he
managed to escape, and fortunate it
was for him; for had he been taken,
such was the indignation of the pub
lie, there can be little doubt but that
his fate would have been an ignomi-
NOUS death.
Some days after the trial of the
seconds, and while the metropolis
still feasted upon the tragic topic, I
dined with my friend Crawford, M.
D., formerly of the British Auxiliary
Legion, but then living in the i'm
mediate neighborhood of Blackfriars
Bridge, where by advice gratis be-
tween 10 and 4, the appointment of
parish doctor, and indefatigable at
tempt to establish q general practice,
he was endeavoring to gather suffi-
cient crumbs to supply the daily
wants of very lady-like Crawford,
and some half dozen smaller Craw-
lords, rising in height from two to four
and half feet. One item of his
practice, and one which bears more
particularly upon my tale, was the
recovery of those half-drowned per-
sons 30 frequently dragged from the
filthy water, to whom, when taken
to the George" water-side public
house, where the drugs are kept, it
was my friends's duty to attend.
Now, as the duelist, Belfont, had
served in Spain ut the same time
with my friend, the conversation
after dinner very naturally turned
upon the late tragedy, upon every
point of which, being we'll coached
up" by the newspapers, and holding
the general opinion of foul play,
modestly asserted that Belfont was a
murderous rascal, and hopedhe would
soon be taken. To my surprise,
Crawford, with indignant counte-
nance, exclaimed, cit is lie, base
lie. 1t is the old story, Give dog
an i'll name and hang him."
''You speak warmly, my friend
said I.
81 do-and mean warmly, for there
is not quieter or more gentlemanly
fellow upon Gods eorth, than poor
Belfont."
"You know him, then?"
"I did, L do. We were in the
same regiment, indeed we were al
fellow-townsmen."
"His, then, must have been q
strange history. 1t is not often thai
men of the character you describe

Wsnderingon the shores of memory.
Gathering mp the fragments cast,
BY the surging waves Of feeling,
: From the ocean Of the paat; 81
Here shell and there 9 pebble,
With its edges worn away,
By the rolling OF the waters,
BY the dashing vt the spray. e
Some lie smooth. and many tinted,
High upon the glistening sand d- ~ (,
Others, sharp and freshly scattered,
Wound when taken in the hand:

Garnered in our early years,
Gathered now in hidden cayerns,
Crusted with the salt OF tears.
Every hope and every sorrow M !, I.
That the heart hath ever known
Vessels launched in youth's bright hour,
On the shadowy beach are thrown;
Here are pleasure-boats that glided
Ger smooth waters for awhile ~
There, rich argosies OF feeling,
it Freighted with tear or smile.
Joy that vanished e'er twas tasted,
lis but ses-weed wet with spray;
Eagerly we seek to grasp it
Lo, its beauties fade away!
Floating in the brilliant future,
1t was dipped in rainbow-dyes,
But upon the sands OF mem'ry
q Now in tangled masses lies.
Here are wrecks OF early friendships,
Living only in the past
Vessels which were far too fragile
To withstand life's cutting blast;
By them nobler barques are lying,
Barques that weathered every gale,
Till on death their ife-boats shattered
There were never known to fail.
Round about are fragments lying
OF the cargoes which they bore;
And on each these words are craven:
Friend, we've only gone before"
To reflect that, when we die,
Shattered on the ssnds of niom'ry,
Thus in loving hearts,we lie.
