But he could speak no more, and the midshipman
hurried otf the homicide.
From the incoherent words of his victim,,the
horror-stricken Tompkins gathered that he was
to "call i t Dr. Blodget's in b'utnmerville, and deliver
the letter; and thitherward lie bent his
step, in as pitiable^comlition as the dying man.
He Soon found the cottage, a pretty residence,
embowered in trees and ornamented
with/Severally distinguished darkies, who were
staging round the door-yhrd grinning to the
ex^tit ot' their respective ivories. Before he
l^d time to ring the bell an impulsive old genpieman
in black rushed out. Tompkins mechanically
extended the letter, not having courage
enough at his command to utter a word.
"1 see?1 see," said the impulsive little old
gentleman, who was no other than Dr. Blodget
himself. ' Tompkins, eh ?" give mo your
hand.
"Forbear! there's blood upon it," said the
wretched Tompkins.
"Blood! nonsense!" said the Doctor. "Come
along. My daughter's waiting?and so are the
bridesmaid and the parson, you dog."
"But, sir, what has this to do with me?"
"Willi von' udtv isn't vnnr ti.'iino Thomas
Tompkins ?"
"Certainly."
"So this letter says. Do you pretend tliut
you hav'ul come to fulfil the arrangement
made by your father to marry my daughter?
whom you havn't seen since you and she were
boy and girl ( Come along?aie you crazy?"
"A believe i am," stammered poor Tompkins,
who was astonished at every thing he heard.
"A believe 1 am crazy."
"Tommy!" said the old gentleman, sternly,
"A bilicve you've been stopping at the halfway
house."
"Not a drop, Doctor, as I live."
"Come along, then."
And the Doctor hurried in his victim. He
was soon in the preseuce of the bride and her
relations. There were flowers in porcelain vases,
cake and wiue upon the table, aud music
in the Aiall. Miss Emma Blodget opened her
arms, and the Doctor pushed Tommy into

"Vou don't look as if you were dead, though,'
said the Doctor, winking at the clergyman.?
"Come, Mr. Spintext, let's have it over. En

Pulled, pushed, and shoved, the indignant
gentleman was ejected from the Doctor's cottage;
and, this feat accomplished, the wedding
company sat down to dinner, at which the singular
coincidence in the names of the parties
formed a principal topic of discussion.
The result of this odd affair was a suit brought
by the cockney; hut he lost his case, and went
