Among the many charming homes by which thc eastern shores of Long Island lind become adorned, a score of years ago, was one which pre? eminently engages our attention. It wus situa? ted upon the fulrestof ?ie broad inlets which tharacterlzo tho southern side of Shelter island, and wuB occupied bv Mr. James Lawrence, a re? tired merchant prince of New York. There were but two persons vlslblo about the grounds. Thc one was a mere boy, a youth of sixteen or neventccn years, but one whose every look anti action, young as he was, gave striking promise or HO ordinary manhood. ' Thc co in pan bm or our hero was, 4lkc himself, if! "the very threshold or net ital existence, scarcely turned or fourteen, Hushed willi tlie promise or a noble nnd glorious womanhood. She was Lily Luwrciicc, tho only child nnd ?ielrChs or the retired merchant. Behind thcyouiig couple.were tli>.- grounds nnd mansion: before Hiern two small call-bouts, one or them bearing this name-Thc Water Lily. "I begin to bc tired, BIcliard," at length, mur? mured the yoting girl. "The boat is now tn thc shade, ns pleasant as cnn be, rocking softly on the beach. I?t eS>slt down In lt." "Agreed, I dy." responded thc youth. "We'll have a good talk with each oilier," "Well, what shall wo lalk about V demanded thc little malden. "Let's talk about our future/Lily-what we will do when wc are grown up,"' suggested Klchnrd. "I can't look rorwurd farther than to-night," -Bald Lily, smiling. "Papa and mamma will he home about ten iront New York, with loads or presents for yon anti me, Blchnrd. Let's guess what they Will bring us, Dick." "Well; I guess a new dress for yon, Lily, some Jewelry-and a lot or puzzles and enines." "I guess a lot Ol hooks for you, Dick, Olid a new set or chessmen, and ii splendid gold watch." The boy's eyes sparkled. . "How feopd rather and motlier nrc lo me I" he said, with deep reeling. "They could not treat mc better If 1 were their own son, Instead of a "wair washed on their bench years ago, berorc yon were born, Lily." "They love ns equally. Dick," said Lily, tender? ly. "J hope they won't forget'our presents," she :uidcd, "and I'm hair afraid they will, because they, went to New York on mysterious business." '.Mysterious business?" echoed the Ind. Lily nodded her head sagely. "Yes," she said. "You kuow, Blchnrd, I've got ft dreadful uncle,' an awful bad man, that used to make papa lots or t rouble t" "Yes, Lily." "Well, lt's my opinion Hint my wicked uncle has lurnea up 1" said Lily, solemnly. , "Oh, I Hope not, Lily !" BlehnnV exclaimed. "He's a rough, bud man. Housed' to llvo*?*ltli father and do nothing till you were born, expect? ing to inherit your rather's wealth. But, niter vour birth, he cursed you awfully, and rather sent him orr, and lie went to sen, and rallier thinks he's .now the mate or captain oin vessel." . "Would yon like to be n sailor, Dick t" "No, Lily ; 1 don't love the sen. It cast moon this beach, a forlorn and helpless child, robbing mo or all my friends-of even my name," ami the lad's bright face clouded over. "I wish I knew my real name, who I am, and If 1 have any rela? tives living. " Motlier snys I wus expensively dressed when they picked me up, half-drowned, and that I wore this chain and locket around my neck," and he drew from lils bosom n slender Florentine gold chain, with an exquisite locket, delicately set with pearls lu (tie form or n mono? gram. "I think my own mother put li on my .neck, and I shall always wear lt. See, Lily ! there aro two locks or hair within the locket-n yellow nnd ii black one, with thc mimes 'Richard nnd Anna.' 1 suppose they were Hie mimes of my parents." "or course !" said. Lily, ns lie restored ilia trinket to his bosom. "It's a pity they didn't put their lull names: but ir they had, I shouldn't liavo had my brother." "I'm glad I'm not your brother, Lily," said Richard, gravely. "Glad I" cried Lily, startled-"Glad I" ''Yes, I am gladi" reiterated thc lad, a sort glow or tenderness stuTiislug his noble renturcs. "ir yon were my sister you would leave me some? time, und I want you always with me." "I'll live with you, Dick," assented Lily. "But I should want you ror ray wire, Lily," urged thc lad, With thc ardor and tenderness of many an older lover. "Will you marry me, dear Xllyl" "Why, of course," said thc little malden, nnlvc Ty.' "I expected to marry you, Richard, when I should be old enough." Thc lad was enraptured. He drew Lily to him, showering kisses upon her fuco and hair, calling her by a host of tender names that came rapidly to lils tongue. "Richard." said Lily, "cugaged ladtcs wear en? gagement rings. I ought to have one." "Von shall have a diamond one when I go to New York," hastily promised the young lover. "IX you wouldn't mind a plain g di tl one, Lily, I've got one that's two small for mc among my things. W1U you wear lt till I can get a handsome one?" Lily graciously assented, and Richard hastened -toward the mansion. .. , When he had gone, thc little malden looked out npon the pleasant bay. "We ought to live herc," she mused. "I am sure this ls tho prettiest spot in thc whole world i" She watched thc shins idly. One ot the ships exhibited a hustle and confu? sion that showed lt was .on tho point of depar? ture. It was a whaling vessel, as Its biilld and appearance plainly deolared. "She ls going for whales,'! murmured Lily, half unconsciously : "she may be gone two or three years-most or lho>whalc ships are." She waa atilt gazing at thc outward-bound whaler, wrapt In her musings, when a dark and :sbiiBter race was thrust out from the sheller of a . dense clump or bushes, a score or rods cast or her. near thc water, in tho shadow or somo clim?, and a pair or fierce and Inflamed eyes regarded her a moment, with an evil and scheming expres? sion. This wicked looking race was withdrawn almost immediately Into thc depths or thc bushes as the sound or thc lad's returning footsteps rang out on the gravelled path. "Hero lt is, Lily," sahl Richard, hounding over the beach Into the boat, and proudly exhibiting the little circlet that was to bc the seal ortho childish betrothal. "Let mc put lt on your Huger." "I shall show lt to mamma when she comes home," said Lily, "and tell her that wc are en? gaged. See that ship, Dick, starting out on a voyage " she added, pointing at tho distant ves? sel she had been winching. "I wish we haoT your pooket telescope herc, Dick; I should so like to seethe people on that whaler." "I can get lt In three minutes," said Richard. "It's on the library table." He bounded away, and Lily sank down on the cushions, pillowing lier head upon ono of them, CHAPTER II. A DKSPKRATB RESOLUTION. She was tired with her day's sports and wan? derings. ' . ' It was little wonder, then, that her head had scarcely pressed tho cushion when she fell asleep. Richard waa absent fuU twenty minutes return? ing to his sleeping charge when the shadows of evening' were setting permanently around her. HU search for his portable telescope had for somo lime been unsuccessful. ?? "Here lt ls, Lily," he said, springing to the side of thc ijnat. "I thought I never ? should nnd lt, ' and, now I've got lt, lt's too late to use lt. Why, Lily,"darling, are yon asleep f" Re looked down upon the unconscious little malden, caressed her hair, and covered her ten? derly. "Poor Hmo tired Lily," he whispered softly. "It would be a pHy to wake her up. How fast lt has grown dark. I wonder ir I couldn't carry her into the tfeosc without waking hor." - . ? Ho was aiiout to carry thc Idea Into execution, when he suddenly remembered asortly-cushloncd hand wagon which hail been purchased ror Lily's -?8?i the previous year, after a long Ulnesa which Bad left her too weak trfValk. "PH gel the wagon," ho thought, "and draw her to the honse without a Jolt. Sno'ii awake on the parlor sofa after father and mother come home. What a surprise lt will be for her i" Eager to carry ont his design, he hastened In search of the Invalid wagon. He waa notlongab? sent, returning softly, fearful of disturbing his yoong charge; , - The boat was gono I Looking wildly aronui!, he caught a glimpse of la, fifty yanda away, with Its san flapping, and yet going rapidly seaward. Even while he gazed, the gathering mist and gloom closed In npon the mere point the boat presented to bis sight, and lt abrupt? ly vanished. For a moment the lad was stunned with the dreadful troth. ." The boat haa Hotted off the beach i ? he ex (?lulim <l. "I might have foreseen lt. Thc tide has risen, and thc wind with lt. Thc wlntl ls driving lier seaward; but 1 will soon overtake her. Lily, darling, I'm coming I" Ile sprang Into the remaining boat, pushed oft, set the sall, and hurried orrin pursuit or the girl, straining lils eyes through Hie darkness to discover some sign ot ber. Hut when lie reached Hie spot where the boat had vanished, mid, M nuning lils ayes In every di? rection, saw no sign of the missing boat and girl, lie was shaken by u shun* and dretuirul ap prolicnslon. "Oh, Lily I my poor utile Lily!" he groaned, with an anguish loo Knut ror expression, but with? out pausing in Hie earnest pursuit. " vt hat ?toes lids menuf Where cnn the boat be? W hy does lt drift so swiftly T Oh, Lily!" , " Keeping Ids eve fixed lu Hie supposed direction of the Waler Lily, ho strained every nerve, spread every stitch or sall; I" his wild frcnry, and yet lie perceived II? sl?iii ?f her. "Help I help !" he -honied ut last, lu despair, as his course led him past a group ?? fishing boals returning homeward mun Sag Harbor. "Slop that bout ! n gol loose from Shelter Island! ''ills excited voice Immediately commanded at? tention. Naturally enough, perhaps, the Usher- I men, Insteud of seeking thc missing bout, drew near tsJPk-stlou tho.pursuer. Ju broken words, tremulous with excitement anil reviving hope, Richard told lils story ns brleily as possible. Lclore many minutes had passed, thc Water Lllv was overtaken and stopped. lth-iiai d's boat rainy skimmed ,over Hie sound, lils veins throbbing with his exultant Joy, hut henri brimming over-with n might y I hanks-' giving. "Is she nslcep yet I" he asked. "Sh J WHS very tired. 1 will not wake her tip." The Ushers looked ut each other hi silence. Then one or them silently look n lantern and Hashed lt over tho Water Lily. The boat was empty ! There was a dent In Hie cushion where Lily's golden head had rested ! Hut Lily herself was gone I "Where-where ls Lily V Dick gasped. Cue ot thc fishermen answered: "She must have wnked up dnz.cd-llkc. Most likely she didn't know where she was. P'raps she thought alic wus getting out o' bcd. Poor Utile Lily Lawrence I.

"Ycs,"| she ls dead !" '' He stood there, white, tearless and despairing, like a statue of grief. - "Ibu-folks ought tu bc told," said ono or thc fishermen, In a low lone. Slowly and reluctantly he trimmed Ids sall, mid set out upon hts errand. The remaining Ushers then strove, In Hielrrude, kindly way, to comfort Hie stricken lad. Hut thc sound or their voices Jarred mi lils tortured spirit, mid lie cried: "I wunt to lie alone. Let me go on" by myseiri Dh, Lily, Lily !? . . The fishers drew mr silently and sadly, deeming t last to leave Hie lad alone willi lils grier, mid mon Richard wns. solitary amid thc shadows upou ;he wnicr. "Perhaps 1 nm over Lily's drowned body !" lie -aid, aloud, peering over luto Hie dark waters. ?Oh, ir I might only Join her ! 1 cannot live willi? na tieri? At length lie sat up and looked with haggard 'ace tow ai d Ills home. Lights were gleaming rroin Hie windows or thc lwclllng, ami lanterns were ilaslUng along thc teach and over thc lawn. "They arc looking ror Lily and mo," ho mur nured, mlnHy. "Father and motlier have come lome. Oh. 1 cnn never, never face them again !

The great lantern or tho whaling vessel drew nearer und nearer, as did thc lights or Sag Har? bor. As he approached thc vessel lu thc darkness, lind mai ked its Mgus of Immediate departure, u ilcsperate thought entered lils mind. "She is only walling ror 6omc Of the stragglers ot her crew,''he tnought. "Thc Wind ls right. She'll soon be oir. Where eau I lose myself to 'allier and mother so completely ns on II whaler f" He approached thc vessel ns quietly as posslUe. 5he was lying to. Just without Sag Harbor, newi? ng toward Cedur Island. Thc night was dork, ind only n few men were visible on her deck, rue lurid light or the lantern enabled Richard to lute till these circumstances suillclcntly for his nirpose. . He crept under thc how softly, seized thc mur ingalc hy a despcrato leap, and began to climb to he bowsprit, mid thence, In thc shadow ol Hie Iii, creeping down to lite deck. He paused when ie hud gained a secure footing, mid removed lils ihocs, looking around mid seeing that his nrrlvnl vas minot iced. He theil moved softly along thc leek to the compuuion-wny, slipped down, xi m ul ou ml himself lu u dlmly-liglucd, disagreeably- ' miclllng cullin. Thc steward's pnntry was mr Hits, und Richard leheid a couple of Individuals within lt, engaged'I n Imbibing hot liquors. Their Packs were toward lim, and Hie boy crept along lu thc shallow, gnln iil un empty state-room, s'ipped lu, and concealed ilmscir beneath Hie bunk. CHAPTER UL LILY AND ll Ell CAPTO*. While our young heroine luy asleep In her boat, pon thc beach In front of her father's dwelling, tiring thc absence of lier foster-brother, as rc orded, the sinister fuco which had peered upon er from n neighboring cluster of bushes, was gain thrust Into prominence. Upon this rcpul Ivc visage had now appeared an expression akin 0 vlllanous contentment. "It certainly looks so," muttered, In a hoarse olee, thc Individual to whom that evil looking nee belonged. "Thc girl's asleep I" As already stated, thc shadows of night had cn eloped thc scene. Favored by thc darkness, the I ill udor gained the bench unseen, sprung beside lie boat, und bent over thc sleeping child. There was light enough for him to nm k her .?mures, and au exultant glow lit up his own, us e muttered: "Asleep, sure enough !" He chuckled coarsely, pushed ott the boat, step? ed lightly Into lt, set the sall; and seated himself 1 thc stern. The wind Immediately swelled thc nnvns, blowing from the west, nnd the little raft sped out Into Hie gloom now hovering over lie waters. "Thc thing's done," breathed thc villain. In a carceiy audible whisper, as he looked shoreward nd saw no slgu of Ure or motion. "I shall get on* .?itu my prlxc without trouble." When he had placed what he deemed a safe ills anco between lils unconscious pursuer and hliu elf, he allowed lils boat to fall oir a little, und iccrcd anxiously around him Into thc darkness. "lt was about herc I ordered the boat to be in vatting," he muttered. "All, there lt ls yonder I toys l" Ills cautious, hissing whisper was answered by i low, Irregular whist lc. "This way, boys I" he said, making out thc onl? ine or nn ordinary whale boat near at hand, vhieh had been walting ror him. The boats approached each other, and their Ides soon touched. The villain then lifted Lily very carefully in hts* irma, and stepped over into thc whale boat, treati? ng upon Lily's lint as he went. "Now for the ship, boys," he whispered. "Let ho boat I came lu drift where she will. Away rltb us-quick !" The whale boat darted away In obedience to hese Hiders, mid the Water Lily was left to tho Kort of the winds and tho waves, until found by c pursuer. The little malden stirred uneasily in the cm .race or lier enemy, und awakened with a sudden tari. "Is lt you, Hick V she asked. "Where arc you aklng mc r Why, lt's dark, and we're on thc rater. Dear Dick, let's go right home ! Papa nd mamma will soon bc there I" "Shut up, you young one !" commanded her ncmy, menacingly. "Not a word-not a cry e I'll chuck yon over Into tho water I" Lily almost fainted with fright, her eyes look ig wildly up at her captor, and lier heart almost easing its pulsations. Such a shock she had lever before experienced. The whale-boat avoided the fishing boats upon he sound, steering straight for thc whaling ves el, which tho young conple had remarked, and bout which Lily hat! Indulged In so many specu itlons, and which had so mysteriously delayed is departure. - . - In a short time the boat was alongside, the aptaln climbed to the deck with his light burden, nd hastily descended to the cabin. What aplaco for thc delicately-nurtured, daln< lly-brcd Lily I There was no one in tho cabin, but a hideous lack face looked out of the steward's pantry he face of tho cabin cook. Captain Stocks sat doWn his pole and trembling urden upon a wooden beuch that served as a Ivan, and called loudly-to the hlaok cook, who inmediately obeyed thc summons. "Thia ls my daughter, Scipio," said the captain, coping his eyes axed menacingly upon the little aptlvc. "I told you yesterday that my wifo ran way from mo years ago, anti took tho girl with er, robbing me of my rights as a parent. I have Aken tho law Into my own hands, and brought ly girl off to keep my company-" "It Isn't so," interrupted Lily, desperately, truggllng with her astonishment and grief. "I m not this man's daughter, and I wouldn't bo ar a million worlds. I am Lily Lawrence, and ny father lives on Shelter Island, and I want to :o homo-" "Yon hush up I" cried tho captain, with a look hat mado her shudder with fear. "Yon under land, Scipio, that you are to keep your eye on his young lady. You are not to lecher out of our sight." "I'll remember, slr." said Scipio, with a grin hat showed his double row of Ivories. "And, scipio, yon are not to listen to her travers and beseechings." ..... "Pb, cap'n,'' said Scipio. "And if I tell you to fling her overboard, you viii do Itt1' "Yes, cap'n," said the negro, who had erident r been previously Instructed what to say oh the ircacnt occasion, "li you say so," and he- drew a huge clasp-knife from hts pocket, uuil assumed it threatening appearance. "I lake thc young lady's head right o?r I" Ile glared al I.liv as he spoke, moving a step toward her, and the child fulrly scream >d with fright. "That ls right," snld Captain Stocks, s t Wiled that the desired Impression hail been nindi upon lils captive. "Ho Into the pantie Scipio; I want to talk with the girl alone." The cook obeyed, closing the door behind him. The captain stood in front of Idly, looking exul? tantly upon her. He was a great, powerful man, with sandy hair and beard, a pair of sinister eyes, and a face thal showed a nature given up lo evil ami wickedness. Ills brawny hands were rough. Ibo cords being heavily knotted; his tieck was thick nm! short; and his entire appearance was ut once formida? ble and unprepossessing. No wonder that delicate little Lillv shivered .und trembled before him, vaguely wondering if ll 1 were not all a had dream, and she woubLuwakvu from lt by-and-by. "Do you kilow who latiiY" asked thc captain, after surveying her u little while lu silence. "1 know you to bc a dreadful mun." said l.jh , with j great sob, not darmg to avoid answer? ing. "Well, who do yon suppose I oin t" "1-1 suppose you ure the very worst mau lu thc World," Sltld poor, frightened little Lily, ulai nied al her own temerity. "You natter me," replied tho captain, with a sinister smile; "but you don't quite get my Iden. Let me tell you U little story. Children aro fond of stories, 1 believe. "Once on n time-to begin In Hie good old way -there were two half-brothers. Tho younger waa a wild, wicked -boy," and he sneered. "He didn't like tu go to school-that's what they suv lu the biographies of wicked hoys, ain't ll r He mu ti way to sea, und made lils father trouble. The elder hoy was a good Iud, Industrious und thoughtful, mid studious, und all that"-und again he sneered. "Thc rather or these boys died when Hie boys got to bc young men, and lt wits round that he had lett, all lils wealth lo Hie good, etiler boy, and lett thc bud, yottbgcr sou dependent upon the bou ni y or .his brother. Can you understand all that t" Lily was looking up ut him willi wild aud won? dering eyes, her tangle or golden curls pushed hack fromdtcr whlto brows, und her pale luce lill aglow with suppressed excitement. She nodded gravely,'amt he continued: "The good brother built him a splendid home aa, Shelter Island, mid m ni ried a rich girl, ami was very happy''-mid tho captain's sneer whs fearfully biller. "The wicked brother lived with this good and happy iKniplc a whole year, think? ing irth?y were lo die, how rich he would he. lim a baby came ut the end or a year, und hu knew that all the property would go to her, soho mu nirand was never hoard nf by his brother again--never, until tin- other day, when this bad brother happened lo bo in New \ork, ami wrote a letter to lils rich brother, pretending to lie sorry, and desiring to bu forgiven. The rich brother and lils wire hurried dir to bring thc prodigal home, und their only child was lett unguarded to rall Into thc wicked man's hands. In short, Miss Lily, your papa, went to New York on a wild-goose chase, Just to give inc the opportunity to steal his dearest treasure." "And you-and you-'* gashed Lily, with dilating eyes. "1 nm Captain Stocks, ol thc whaler Dolphin, otherwise Hadley Lawrence, the 'wicked brother,"' snld thu captain, with a mocking boa* und a sneering smile. "Then yon must he my bad uncle!" ejacu? lated Lily rilli of horror uml surprise. " What do you nican by currylug mu o tr lu this man? ner?" "1 menu," he said, "to give you a voy ngc around the world." "l-l don't uiiderstand you," said Lily, with a pit Hui ipi i vcr or her Hp. "No* Then let mc explain.

Can you understand my programme 1 " i ? ' " Y OH, I understand you !" cried Lily. Indignant? ly. "I should think you would choke with BO many wicked words." He opened a door beside Lily and exhibited thc small state-room. A large new trunk stood against the wall, Hie key lu Hit? lock. Thc capt alu lilted thc lld displaying Its contents. "Why, those ai e my own things I" cried Lily, In astonishment, recognizing in thc miscellaneous heap dresses, underclothing, shoes and hms she hud worn. "How did limy come lu re ?" "1 got them out of your house thia morning when you were in thu garden, aud thc servant s were off by themselves." "Hut I am not going orr with you I" exclaimed Lily. "I um going ashore .lo papa, mamma Bird; ? Dick." >. She sprang up, darting toward thc door ol thc 1 cullin, with u wild hope or escape. '.) ?' . Ueforo she could reach the companion-way, thc captain's broad strides had brought-him beside her, and his heavy hand was laid an.her shoulder. "None o' thai t" he sold, with un ugly look. ?J.'1've got to go ashore again on buslnc-- before wc sall, aud, I can't waste more time herc, 'wi use lu your trying to escape. Scipio hus got-lils *ycs on you." 1 He thrust her Into the ?lark state-room, locked i the dour,putting Hie key lu lils pocket, and order lng thc negro lo keep a close guard over Hie capt live. . 1 Ile then went about his lins Incus. . i Thc child thoroughly exhausted herself with thc , vehemence ur her emotions, and exertions to es? cape, calling Wildly on Uer parents for rescue, hut at last she dropped into her'berth, moaning : and sobbing faintly : "Oh, Dick, dear Dick, come to mc ! Come and save your poor Lily 1" Thu poor little captive had no suspicion of Richard's presence, mid yet, by a merciful Provi? dence, tho desperate resolution of our young hero hud curried lilia aboard of that very vessel ! CHAPTER IV. I MOnT IN OAKKNKSS. 1 How lonely and desolate he was I No word can I describe his sadness. For a long time he lay there, thinking or his > lost Lily, ol her parents' despair and wretched? ness, und or lils liopeiess, darkened lire. Thc ship .sailed across (lardlner's Day, passed outside or Gardiner's Island, and struck thc RWCII or the Atlantic. What a voyage-what a life-was be? fore him. "Wc ure fairly out to sea," he said, at last, as the rolling and pitching of the vessel declared the fact. "I must own up soon. I wonder what thc captain will Bay when he aces me t" Ile wiped away lils tears manfully, repulsed thc reeling or desolation that came over bim, and began slowly to emerge from his concealment. AH might have been expected from the life he and Lily had lcd, spending hair their time on the water, neither or them felt the slightest Inclina? tion to sea-sickness. But to both, tho peculiar greasy odor prevailing the vessel was almost in? tolerable, anti Richard began to loug lor thc fresh ulr or thc decks. Ile crept across thc state-room, and placing himself noiselessly in thc doorway, peered uno thc dingy cabin. The door of thc steward's pantry was open, and thc steward-a negro named Tawklns-was en? gaged In entertaining Scipio with a tempting beverage, receiving lu return all tho news at Scipio's command. "So the captain has brought his daughter aboard, has her" said Tawklns. 'I Jest wish I could a.seen her. Does she look Uko the cap? tain >" "About aa much os a lamb looks Uko a tiger," Haid Scipio, with a grin.' "Why, ahe'a a linty totity thing, with hair'the color o' aunslne, and eyes like hits o' deep blue sky. She's going to make a voyage with us !" "It's batt luck to have a woman aboard," Raid Tawklns, reflectively. "I knew of a ship. once, where the captain's wife was aboard, anti tho ship was lost, and ovcry soul drowned. H's a templin' o' Providence to take women to sea I" "It'd be worse luck to go against tho captain's will!" declared Scipio. "Why he can rage worse than the wind can, and tho weight or lils arm la sotnethln' awful. . Last wy age, you know, be liked to a killed one of the Bailors, and that very feller ls In the New York 'ospltlle now with a gen? eral used-up bmly. Can't walk, nor talk, nor not hin1-so I hear. Thc captain la awfnl I" Richard began to think ne might better ba ve? rein aln ed ashore. "Ia tho captain's bcd made, Tawklna t" asked Scipio, after a pause. The steward replied in tho negative. "I'll make lt then," said Scipio, "and yon can help. ' Where are the blankets and sheets f" Richard, anticipating the reply, closed the door and concealed himself behind the further pile of blankets. A moment later, the two negroes entered the' atate-room, and commenced leisurely selecting tho required atores. % ..What did yon say the young lady's name ls, Scipio!" inquired Tawklns, holding a lantern, while his friend tumbled over-the piles of blan? kets. ..I didn't say, bat lt's Lily. The c?ptala found heron Shelter island." What a great leap Richard's heart gave.

MEMORANDA. Tho bark Helen Sarnia, Woodside, from Charles? ton for Montevideo, was spoken September 7, lat 17 north, lon S5. Tho famona ship Dreadnought, lately lost on Terra del Fuego, on her voyage l rom Liverpool for San Francisco, with 2000 tons of freight was 1227 tons, built by Currier A Townsend In Newbury? port, In 1853, anti first owned In New York; but ivhcu lost was owned In San Francisco, to which [?ort she was sailing from Liverpool. The shore in which she was wrecked ls a most inhospitable region and many of the crew were severely frozen.

Perhaps no one medi? cine ts so universally re? quired by everybody us a cnthurllc, nor was ever any before so uni? versally ntloptcd Into use, lu every country and muong lill classes, as tin.; mild but ciiiclcnt purgativo PIM,. The obvious reason ls, that, it ls a more rcllablo anti ? far hum: eikctir.il rem? edy than any other. Those who have tried lt, know Hint lt cured them: thoso who have not, know that lt cures their neighbors and friends, nnd all know that what lt does once lt does always-that lt never rail? through any rnult or neglect or Its composition. We have thousands upon thousands or the certifi? cates or their remarkable cures or the rollowlng complaints, but such cures are known lu every neighborhood, and wc need not publish them. Adapted to ali nges and conditions In all climates; containing neither calomel or any deleterious ilntg. they may bc taken wi?!: safety by anybody. Their sugar coating preserws them ever fresh and makes them pleasant to take, while being purely vegetable no harm can arise rrom tltelruHe In any quantity. AHB Tiley operate by their powerful lunuence on the internal viscera to purify thc blood and stimulate lt Into healthy action-remove the obstructions or thc stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs or the body, restoring their Irregular action to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such' derangements as arc the first origin of disease. Minute directions arc given In thc wrapper on the box, for the folio wing complaints, which these PILLS rapidly cure: For DYSPEPSIA or INDIGESTION, LISTLESSNESS. LANGUOR and Loss of APPETITE, they should be taken moderutely to stimulate thc htomuch and restore Its healthy tone and action. For btv KU COMPLAINT and Its various symp? toms, HILIOV8 HEADACHE, SICK HEADACHE, JAUN? DICE or GRBKN SICKNESS, BILIOUS COLIC and BILIOUS FEVERS, they should bc Judiciously taken for each case, to correct tho diseased action or remove the obstructions which causo it. For DYSENTERY or DIAKRUOA, but one mild dose is generally required. For.itRKUif ATISM, GOUT, GRAVEL, PALPITATION OP "IIB tl BART, PAIN IN THE SIDE, BACK and Lusos, they should bc continuously taken, as re? quired, to change tho tllscaocd action of thc sys? tem.' With such chango thoso complaints dis? appear. For DROPSY and DROPSICAL SWKLLINOS they should bo taken in large and frequent doses to produce the effect of a drastic purge. For 6UTPRK68I0N a large dose should be taken aa lt produces tho desired effect by sympathy.Md As a DINNER PILL, take one or two PILLS to pro? mote digestion and relieve thc stomach. - . ? . ' An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and bowels Into healthy action, restores tao appetite, and Invigorates the Hy at em. Ilene?: lt ls often ad? vantageous where no serious derangement exists. Ono wno feels tolerably well, often Ands that a dose of theao PILLS makes him feel decidedly bet? ter, from their oicanslng and renovating effect on the digestive apparatus. DR. J. 0.
