"llugh Maxwell, sir. "Mr.. Ross tolja mo that you think you could ran your shallop out of. the harbor." ' vVes, sir,I think I can^ "Dp you understand the nature of your errand?" "Only that I must get out of the harbor to do it, that's ^11," replied the youth. "Then," said tho gentleman?-whoso nnmo was Greene?"you aro not tiwaro that j'oii may have to remain outsido for several days." , "Nor do.I care," answered-the youtfc, "if I remain out-forever, only so that my work shall be for the good of the colonies.'* The manner in which Hugh spoke, ha well as his: general appearance, seemed to inspire Mr. Greene with confidence, and without further hesitation he explained the nntnro of the business in band. "There is a large vessel on her way from Glasgow to this place, and our people are much in want of her, so much so that some risk must be run to get possession of her.? Now if information can be conveyed {ctpnpt. Manly that she is daily expected, be will be on the watch for her, and if John Manly onbfe gets bis eyes on her, she is sure to be the property of Washington. Manley's vessel, the Lee, is somewhere between here and Plymouth, and wo want the information conveyed to him as soon as nossihlo- Dn you tliinkjvou can do it? "Yes, sir," emphatically answered the youth. "When can you leave the hnrl>or ?" "This very evening, if you wish." "But you are aware that every precaution is taken by the vessels in the harbor to prevent oven the smallest boat from going out." "I know it, 9ir," Baid Hugh, "but if you will place your instructions in a letter, I will deliver them to Capt. Manley, if his vessel is in Massachusetts I3ay." It was agreed that Hugh Maxwell should ??n ?? .i.? i -f " - urn in uio nuuso ui iur. vxreeno alter dinner, I at which time and place be abould receive uie uucesimry liiali tivuOua, hiiu ua tut] Lwu gentlemen turned to leave tbe wharf, Hugh followed them till he came to the street, and then turning off he passed down Ship street, till he came to a small dock just south of Grant's ship yard, where lay moored a handsomely built shallop of not less than fifteen tons burthen. She was lightly icebound, but with the assistance of two men who stepped on board, be soon had her in good sailing order, and long before night ho had everything in readiness for the adventure.? He had obtained tbe letter for Capt. Manly, which bo very carefully rolled up within a piece of sheet lead, so that m case of accident he might Bink it, and he had also obtained tbe assistance of four fishermen who were nothing loth to get out of a place where tbeir daily avocation was placed under such an uncompromising embargo. It was drawing towards dusk wben an English midshipman, accompanied by a sergeant of marines, came running down Battery Alley, and stopping the sentry, whose post extended from Grant's to Burroughs wharves, he asked: "Sentry, is there a boat any where about here that can be easily and qmckly cast off?" ????? ?*?" * * muniier mail DiaZWeit S SDftllOp, air," replied the soldier, as lie gazed in wonder upon the excited countenance of the young officer. * "Never mind the size," hastily cried the lilidsbipman, "only show me where it lays. Be'quick, too, or the rebels will have. mt, start of us." ' *fhe sentry immediately led tho way to the dock where the shallop lay, and as' soon as be had.pointed it out, the midshipman hailed one of tho men who stood upon-tho deck i ' > "- - t 7 v v,w? 7" bum ouniiop hopr ma^men U^ve you on board J" tta> s'r'" r?p^e<^ ?d smartly, all of you, nnd gcfoje -t^^aprtLo commodore's ship M w mnn> addresBcd, "Mi* *h?Iop to another man, and we b*re jh*-1? * ' -oiience, wiT^pitily interrupted tjie J young officer, "I bear the king's commission, | ? and u you dare to disobey n*?s HI shoot I you the momentyOu d6 it; Sfert up your meis and cast off your shore fasts.

Howo and the Admiral* have concocted some plan for an' expedition for 6ome of these small fry, and I have orders for the Viper and Spitfire to join in it. Good night." . "Good night," returned tho officer of the ship, and in a Few moments the shallop "was off before the wind. ....-v . , Tho little vessel, hdwever, didn't go any where near Spectacle Island,"but as soon as she was out of reach of the ship, she hauled her wind, and standing on to the northward of Governor's Island, she passed out through Broad Sound, and ere long she stuck her nose into the free waters of Massachusetts Day. "Hn, ha, ha," laughed out Hugh Maxwell as he threw the gold-banded cap of tho English middy down by his side and replaced it by his old old sou' wester, "that's a good one.

Our trick is discovered * ?but fire away, my harties, you'll have to work smartly to catch old Maxwell's shallop." ( The trick had been disc&vered, but it was i too late for the British to mend the matter, < for the shallop was far out at 6ea before any- 1 thing could be sent in pursuit, and under the 1 circumstances they did the only thing left for , them?they made the best of it. Some ex- . Kianauon was demanded of old Maxwell, 1 ut ho knew nothing whatever about the matter, only that his shallop was gone, but as he had little or no chance to use it, he did not feel tlio loss very severely, especially . when lie learned that it was under tho charge of his son. I Hugh Maxwell ran across the Lee the i next day, and safely delivered his charge to Captain Manley, after which lie ran into Ply- , mouth. In one week after that time the | colonists were in possession of the richly la- < den ship from Glasgow, and for this 'streak ( of luck" they were solely indebted to "The 1 Fisher Boy's Stratagem FffHriTO 1 ~ * '' ........ i/uiuLincoa.?x'uiuuio loveliness never appears to so good advantage as vvhfiiti j| set off with simplicity of dres9. ever decks his angels with towgfcjj^ leathers J if they!'^voulft^a^good theif title to th'at Wme, should carefully avoid ornaments which properly belong to, Indians and African princesses.
