It was impossible even for a heart so selfish as that of our.Maroon, wholly to resist a confidence ?o sweet and touching. The wild grace of her action, the spiritual delicacy of her love, the delightful companionship with which she cheered his solitude, all succeeded, in the ahso nee of any absolute temptations, to secure his continued devotion to her charms. But a change was destined to cast its shadow over their otherwise happy dreams. Three weeks ofdelight, with little interval, and scarcely any respite, hud passed since they first knew each other. No doubt of the security, as well as transport, of her condition, assailed the heart of the Indian damsel ; and if the Spaniard ever thought of his home, it was. only as one oft hose vexing fancies, which, as he could scarcely hone to realize it. it was but childish to encour. age. He made I li?? most of his present happiness, and resigned himself to the possession of Atitaya, with the more satisfaction, indeed, since, in a choice among a thousand, she still would most-probably have been the object of his pre. lefence.

It was evidently approaching his islet; ' and lor what visitor other than Vehtsijuez should I lie look / in a secure cover, on the top of his cavern, our Maroon, with the trembling Amaya beside him. watched the coin.se of the stranger. The Indian girl iieheld the anxiety ol her companion, to describe the leeling at his heart, embodied in his looks and actions, by its gentlest name; and her own terrors increased accordingly.

W hat had he to iiope Iroin Velasquez or the implacable Juan, his rival ? What motive hut that of mockery and a cruel curiosity would have brought either of llieui hack to the spot where they had marooned him? And should they search tor him what was his hope ot concealment? lie could hide froin the Caribbe uus, who had no suspicion of any presence hut their own, hut Irom the people of the Dian de i5urj>os there was no concealment.

And yet, it will scuieely lie believed thai, thus doulaful ! ot his own fate, lie could yet think of concealing ! his newly gotten treasure.

Nothing but the closest seaicii, uutJer tin- stimulating influence ol a suspicion that something was concealed, could have led to the discovery o| his possessions.

Upon this policy, trembling still to eticbuuler the cruel # I Velasquez, and insidious and hateful Juan, the Maroon resolved. Ho continued his watch in secrecy, though passing from copse to copse; he left the neighborhood of his cavern, as the chew, it flies always from the spot where her young are hidden. ; The vessel approached that part of the island where he had been landed. This increased his fears that she was that of his tyrant. If he came to inock, it was the game of Lopez to implore and seem repentant. If to pardon, it was his policy rather to appear surly and provoke his enemy to continued hostility ; for, though anxious to reach Spain with his treasure, yet our Maroon well knew that, with Juan or Velasquez as a master, the very suspicion of his great possessions would be fatal to his iifft.

But, in truth, Lopez de Levy a was not in a condition of niirnl to resolve on any policy. He was now, as he had ever been before, the creature of events ! wen. These, for once at least, proved favorable to bis fortunes. We have already detailed the fearful circumstances which bad changed the dynasty on board the Dian de Burgos. Linares and Maria de [Pacheco were now the masters, but the former had no control over the proud and intelligent spirit by whom the whole pro needing had been counselled. IIn was a mere seaman?a hold, strong man, who, conscious of his own deficiencies, was not unwilling to supply them from the stores of one who had so much identified her fortunes with his own.? Stic asked lor little in return, and that he was disposed to accord. He was the captain of the ship, hut she was the guiding spirit. He. did not seek her affections. On this point, indulgent, perhaps on all others, she had shown herself equally resentful and indexible. JJut, it will suffice for us that they understood each other, and that Linares lent himself to her projeet of rescuing Lopez. The latter had hut little esteem among the seamen, hut he had been harmless, was really geutle in his nature in proportion as he was timid in his punishment had won their pity and their sympathies.

We need : attempt to depict her laptures or his own. in i her case they were those of a strong, impetu- j uus nature?iter fondness heiug linked with an ' arrogance o| will, which rather compelled and j commanded, than solieited uliectiou m return. The submissive spirit of the "Maroon" did not ! dare ti? withhold the expression of a joy, and' the dee la ration of an attachment beyond any ; which he possibly could leel. Perhaps, there j was much more in the gentle and dependent j iiutuie ot A may a, to persuade him into love, i than in that of the imperious woman whom he | had certainly learned to tear. iS.jl she brought j with her something more than the pour Indian j girl could odor. Her coming promised him a i a restoration to his country, ami the privilege ' of grow ing litmous in the me of his Caribbean . treasures. The very dowry Am.iya was bos- j tile to her claims. Ofthis dowry,?of Amaya I herself,?he religiously forbore to whisper might to the proud woman who stood beside: liiin, and who naturally spoke and thought as j if she were as much the mistress of his heart j as she was o! his fate. iSlie soon told him aii j her story, and revealed such portions of his, us | might -salts!) her inquiries without provoking any doubts. He described the beauties ol his islet. lie showed her where he had often slept, beneath the palms, lie gathered lor her his fresh and iuscions fruits, and in the delight and j wonder with which she beheld this new para-1 di>e, and in the happy consciousness of the at- j laininenl of all lor which she had striven, at j such tcariul sacrifice of pride and leniinine feci- ' ing, she yielded hei'sel! up to the sweet and innocent attractions which gathered around her. j It was with a vague feeiiug o! terror that Inheard her declare her purpose to explore his vni- I pi re, and to see, lor herself, the heautitul ielreats and resources which had so singular!) laiieti to his possession.

She hud no louder to contend with the hrntal passions oi Velasquez, or the stthlle and in.-oieiit spirit of his nephew. There was no iutiiiemv now to conihut her imperious wiil, and to op pose itself to the exercise of her own pas-ions. She itiuJ won the fearful game f,r which sl:e had played, and she might well give her.-e!l a brief respite after the contest, 'i'ne sweet ami balmy climate o! the islet, the picturesque bean, ty of its a.-peets, it- d<dii:io.i-fruits, the novelty ofsnchan abode, and, above al., that romantic passion lor solitude, with a companion, which accompanies the fresher sensibilities ol youth, all tended to excite in .Maria do Pachceo the desire which she expressed, at least to n't cam away a single night on the lonely domain ofthe Maroon. Her early career in the haunts ofthe gipsy, was recalled to memory; and she Iong. cd to realize, anew, the wild sense of pleasure which her passionate childhood had felt, dreamitig beneath the arch of Heaven, and gazing away long lapses of the night, in mute commit, nion with the sadly bright, down-looking stars. Here, in a solitude which Iter lover had main* thilled for near a month, she might surely rest one night in safety. The boat might return to the ship, nay, should return, and she should. share, for that night, with Lopez, the sorer* v, . eignty of the bland* "They shall maroon me also, Lopez." '"They may !" was his suggestion! *- "Nay, I fear not, Linares is faithful to me. ' -Hivcannot-well do without me." / > ; "But he may be blown off in a tempest!?They are fierce and sudden in these latitudes, and terrible in proportion to the beauty and se. renity of the calmness now." "Well,.Linares will come back for us." "Rut,should he founder?" "We then are safe, Lopez !" The answer silenced him for awhile. But he renewed the attempt?more cautiously, but with suggestions as might have influenced Itis own nature. He described to her the unwont- ^ ed terrors which had assailed him in bis first acquaintance with the Island. The lowing of strange beasts of the sea which sometimes came to sleep by night upon the shore The screams of unknown birds ofgreat expanse of wing, and power glimpses of which he caught, rising and descending, as from the stars, at midnight;? the awful plunges of wild monsters, from the , * shore into the sea, and the bellowing of whole tribes of strange animals, whese uproar seemed to shake the Me* itself.
