POSTSCRIPT.

The story of the issue of this daring
and long memorable enterprise may be
intrusted to Miss Mansel, who sent q
copious account of the whole of the
transactions on board the ships Queen
and Wellesley to her aunt, Miss Julia
Horne, Richmond, Surrey. Dating from
Sydney, n. S. W, after six sheets Of
close writing she proceeds thus:
when this dreadful fight was ended,
Robert, who was kindly permitted by
Mr.. Matthews to remain in command of
the bark until the island was reached,
ordered the vessel to he steered for the
brig, which was still in sight, like lit
tie piece of paper at the end of the sea.
Sail was made q cannot help expressing
myself i'll the language of nautical men)
and we very soon overlook her. We then
sailed in company through the night.
Give US that longboat and our lib
erty, said the giant Davenire. Give
us meat and drink for fortnight. Give
us chance, in short. TO escape the hor.
rors to which l suppose you mean to
carry us. and 1 swear by my hearts
blood to tell you where the gold is, and
you shall be deceived-so help me God
in nothing'
Such proposal, of course, could
not be listened to- Robert, looking at
him in his stern way-and he can look
very terrifying, assure you. when vex-
ed by his men. or when things 60 wrong
said:
".You are one Of the persons who tried
to murder Miss Mansel. There sits the
other man. And he pointed to Cald-
well, who was squatting in dark cor
ner. scarcely visible, sometimes num-
bling and sometimes chuckling, but
clearly giving no heed to what was
passing. God has visited him. and his
punishment is hard enough. The young
lady whom you gagged and threw over

This Is also the reason for the great popu-
larity of Hoods Sarsaparilla as a building
up medicine. By making pure, rich blood.
it gives vigor and vitality even in try

ished blood, thousands are complaining OF
weakness and WEAKNESS, lack of energy
and ambition, and that tired feeling.
