said Denny, "but l know that I'll soon
see for myself if you are telling me the
truth"
He turned toward the cabin.
"Softly One moment" said Buncle
advancing nearer, "I want to speak q
word further with you, my young gen'
tleman."
"Say on then |"
What have to say is this." said
Buncle. "Did you not tell Captain
Morrison that !, and Tom. and Bill
and some others OF the crew, were
about to run away in the long boat p
Denny was not pleased with the Sit
ustion, especially as several OF the in.
tended runaways had gathered about
him, but his was a soul inaccessible to
fear, and he responded:
Eyes, told Captain Morrison Of your
intended flight. What OF it?'
"You shall soon see my young ban
TAM" said Buncle, with suppressed
passion. "The long boat is in the wa
ter, duly provisioned and stored, and
we are ready to push off in her"
"But Mr.. Skill p cried Denny, look
ing around excitedly. Where is Mr..
Skill?'
He referred to the executive, IN whose
charge Captsin Morrison had LEFT the
vessel.
Mr., Skill is bound hand and foot
and gagged in the forecastle, as are
several OF the men who took part with
him." declared Burcle, with brutal in
science.
Denny Breeze, at these words, bound
ed toward the cabin, shouting:
More villeiuy Captain Morrison !
Help! help!'
He had scarcely finished this cry,
when he fonnd himself intercepted by
several pairs Of hands and numerous
fingers clutching his throat.

but fatal command of Buncle.
1t Was in vain that Denny, realizing
the horrible intention Of his enemies,
essayed to defend himself-all in vain

He had just given the order to go
about when a cry OF startled surprise
arose from nearly every soul on the
vessel.

ward one Of the outlying islands which
defined the northern limits of the Pas
sage. "Yonder is the long boat"
This was indeed the case. ,

The preparations for defence were
scarcely completed when the long boat
was within hailing distance, continus

Captain Morrison, as he raised mus

Captain Morrison, raising his musket.

The Distribution of Currency.

Owing to the continued stringency in the
financial world, the Controller of the Cur
rency has found it impracticable to execute
the law of July u, 1870. That law pro-
vided that "after s54 100000 of additional
currency had been issued the Controller
should remove $50, 100000 from tire
Eastern to the Southern and Westert
States. The SD 100000 have been ex-
hausted, but the Controller has as yet DIS
covered it to be impracticable to remove
that amount of currency from the East.
He has in consequence been compelled to
refuse numerous applications for the estab-
lishment of banks in the Western and
Southern States. TO remedy this difficulty
without causing an additional stringency in
the money market, Representative Monroe
Monday introduced bill repeating the
clause of said act which authorizes the re-
moval of twenty-five millions, and provid-
ing for the issuance of twenty-five millions
additional, of currency, to satisfy the ex-
pectations which the Southern and Western
States have based upon that act.

A SENSIBLE MEASURE.

Yesterday Mr.. Deneale offered resolu-
ton in the House inquiring into the expe-
diency of exempting from taxation, for a
period of five years, all capital that may
hereafter be invested in mining or manufac-
turing interests in the State and, should
exemption be deemed in conflict with the
Constitution, to inquire into the expediency
of granting bounty or drawback equal to
! the tax assessed and collected. We are
not prepared to say whether the legls-
lation sought in this case is practicable
or not, but the spirit and policy of the res
olutlon cannot be too highly commended.
Mr.. Deneale is one of the most advanced
members of the House, and has better
appreciation of what is possible for Vir-
ginia, and of the mode of reaching such
possibilities, than nine-tenths to those who
make larger pretensions to legislative abil-
ity, but lamentably fail to show it in the
narrowness of their views concerning the
true interests of the State.
While majority of those with whom Mr..
Deneale has been called upon politically to
act would lay tax las they did at the last
SESSION. upon all capital coming into the
State, he would offer every inducement for
il to come and seek profitable investment
among us. 1t is not the first time we have
had occasion to commend the course of 1.-THE
gentleman from Rockingham" and we have
reason to believe that it will not be the last.
