The PIRAT

By Sir Walter Scott.

CHAPTER XX¥V1. (Continued )

“Yeu see how I manage them, said Bunce, with a smile of self-applanse—‘ allow that fellow two strides on his own way, and you make a mutineer of him for life. But I tic him strict up, and he follows me as kindly as a fowler’s spaniel after he has got a good beating.—And now ydu toast and your song sir,” addressing Halcro; “Sor rather your song without your .toast. 1 have got a toast for myself. Here is success to all roving blades, and confusion of all honest men !”

**I should be sorry to drop that toast, if 1

could hep it,” saig Magnus Troil. “What you n yourself one of the

honest folks, I nt?” said Bunce.— ** Tell me your trade; and Pil tell you what you I think of it. ws fer the punch-maker here; Lknow him at first glance to, be a tailor, who has, therefore, no more preten- sion to be: honest, than he has not to be mangy. But you are some High-Dutch skipper, 1 warrant me, that tiampleseon the cross when he,is in Japan, and denies his religion fof a day’s gain.”

sen replied the Udalier, ‘el am a gentleman of Zetland.” e.

‘*Qh what!” retorted. the satirical Mr. Bunce, “you are come from the happy climate where gin is a groat a bottle, and there is daylight for ever :” ’

‘“‘ And your services, Capta said the Udaller, suppressong with much pain some disposition to resent these jests on his country although under evezy risk, disadvantage.

and at all] *:

‘* And my serviceMf!’” said Bunce—** Ay, if there was a rope st@ched from the wre to the beach, yon wouM™be at my services, to cut the hawser, make floutsome and jet some of ship and cargo, and well if you gi me a rap on the head h the back of thi | yourself honest? But never mind here JOes the foresaid toast— and do you sing me a song, Mr. Fashioner ; and look it be as good gs your punch.” Halcro, internally p#aying for the power of a new Timotheus,’ toturn his strain and check his audftors pride, as glorious John had it, began a heart-soothing ditty with the following lines :—

** Maidens fresh as fairest rose,

Listen to this lay of mine.”

‘*T will hear nothing of maidens or roses,” said Bunce ; *‘ it puts me in mind of what sort of a cargo we have goton board ; and, by : I will be true to my messmate and my captain as long as I can —And now I think on't, I'll have no more punch either--that last cup made innovation, and I am not to play Cassio ‘o-night and if I drink not, nobody else snall.”

So saying, he manfully kicked over the bucket, which; notwithstanding the repeated applications made to it, was still half full, got up from his seat, shook himself a little to rights, as he expressed it, cocked his hat, and, walking the quarter deck with an air of dignity, gave, by word and signal, the orders for bringing the ships to anchor, which were readily obeyed by both, Goffe being then, in all «probability, past any rational state of interference.

The Udaller in the meantime, condoled with Halcro on their situation. ‘It is bad enough,” said the tough old Norseman ; ‘‘ for these are rank rogues—and yet, were it not for the girls, I should not fear them, That young vaporing feilow, who seems to have command, is not such a born devil as he might have been.”

“He has queer humors, though,” said Halero ; ** and I wish we were loose from him. Te kick down a bucket half full of the. best punch ever was made, and to cat me short in the sweetest song ever I wrote,—I promise you, I do not know what he may do next— it is next door to mainess.”

Meanwhile, the ships being brought to anchor, the valiant Lieutenant Bunce called upon Fletcher, and, resuming his seat by his unwilling passengers, he told them they should see what message he was about to send to the wittols of Kirkwall, asthey were something concerned it, ‘It shall run in Dick’s name,” he said, ‘‘as well asin mine. I love to give the poor young fellow a little countenance now and then—-don’t I Dick, you d——d stupid ass?”

**Why yes, Jack Bunce,” said Dick; “I can't say but as you do—only you are always bullocking one about something or other, too —but howsodever, d’ ye see——”

‘*Enough said—belay your jaw, Dick,” said Bunee, and proceeded to write his epistle, which, being read aloud, proved to be of the following tenor: ‘* For the Mayor and Alder- men of Kirkwall—-Gentlemen, As, contrary to your good faith given, you have not sent us on board a hostage for the safety of our Captain remaining on shore at your request, these come to tell you, we are not thus to be trifled with. We have already in our possession a brig, with a family of distinction, its owners and passengers; and as you deal with our Captain, so will we deal with them in every respect. Andas thisis the first, so assure yourselves itshall not be the last damage which we will do to your town and trade, if you dy not send on board our Captain and supply us with :tores according tu treaty.

**Given on board the brig Mergoose, of Burgh-Westra, lying in Inganess Bay. Wit- ness our hands, commanders of the Fortune’s Favorite, and gentlemen adventurers.’

He then subscribed himself Frederick Alta- mont, and handed the letter to Fletcher, who read the said subscription. with much ditliq culty ; and, admiring the sound of it very much, swore he would have a new naine him- self, and the rather that Fletcher was the most crabbed word to spell and construe, he believed, in the whole. dictionary. He sub- scribed himself accordingly, Timothy Tug- mutton.

“Will you not add a few lines to the cox- combs?” said Bunce, addressing Magnus.

“Not 1,” returned the Udaller, stubborn in his ideas of right and pe | even in so formidable an emergency. ** The Magistrates of Kirkwall know their daty, and were I they" But here the recollection that his daughters were at the mercy of these ruffians blanched the bold visage of Magnus Troil, and checked the defiance which was just about to issue from his lips.

A Pulpit Wonder.

PASCAE PORTER IS ONLY ELEVEN YEARS OLD, BUT A PHENOMENAL PREACHER. (Williamstown, Ky., Despatch to the Cinein- nati Enquirer.)

Great and unflagging interest. has been manifested nightly-for the past week in the eloquence and wonderful preaching of the boy preacher, Rev. Pascal Porter, who lives near Madison, Ind., and is only eleven years old. Ministers in the prime of their ministry, ministers grown gray in the ser- vice of their Master, hang with rapfmre upon the words that fell with burning elo- quence from his youthful lips.

Never in the history ot this place have such crowds assembled to,hear the preach- nig of one person. “Weople of every creed and denomination and without a creed, and men who had not entered a church for

fifteen years, attexded nightly and were.

thrilled with interest and filled with wonder. He is a handsome boy, with a bright brown eye and a well-shaped head. pulpit there is nothing in his manner or

speech to indicate his wonderful gift, but in the pulpit he is a veritable apt He possesses a most wonderful memory and

great gift of language, and his sermons are logical, doctrinal and deep, and on each night he speaks on an entirely different sub- ject. ~While all here proclaim that his preaching is wonderful and interesting, the community are about equally divided as to whether his sermons are vriginal, orwhether he has committed to memory the sermons of another ; but all admit, whether they a boy preacher i

Ifthey’ were de- ature years and Gegre ‘be eloquence, all eply interested. } Madison, Ind., Nov. e youngest of a family of ree boys and four girls. As soon @8 he was old enough to talk, he manifected a desire to preach the gospel and make the world better, but was not permitted to enter the ministry until he I of age. His education is

limited, only

““Excus3 ial host of « Westville ho fter unlocking his door and letting m@in, ‘I have to keep the

door locked, as the Scott Act constable is trying to serve me with papers.”

“Do you have any trouble dodging them ?”

‘** | should say so. Three days ago I got wind that he was on his way. In half an hour down the street he came, with a ‘ gad’ of smelts, and made a dive for the front door—lecked; back door ditto. In half an hour he came back wearing a different hat, his pants rolled up to his knees, carrying a basket, in which were carefully exposed two plaster paris busts. This time he knocked loudly. He got a glimpse of me through the side lights. Holding up a bust of Bacon he said: **Wantee emage! Poor I-ta-lian man me. Buy from me—selle cheap.’ ‘Getaway. There are no Italians in Merigomish,’ and off he went. At five o'clock a dilapidated cripple hobbled along on two crutches—his face decorated with several strips of sticking plaster, his chin newly reaped, one foot encased in a boot, while the other was covered with a half-a- dozen pairs of socks. I hardiy knew him. When I was sure of my manl yelled through the keyhole: *‘ No, thank you, we don’t want smelts or images to-day.’ Next day about 8 o'clock, he sailed round the corner, Wearing a sou’wester, a heavy wool blue shirt, long knee bvots, a suilor’s bag under his arm, while his ‘roll’ showed he vas walking deck in a rough sea. He walked to the duor, gave the knob a vigor- ous turn—-locked. ‘Aye, aye, me ship- mate, all the covies have left the bloomin’ ship; open the door, my hearty, I’m cold.’ ‘Good fires in Merigomish; go home.’ About 11.1 dropped to him coming down the street with three cigar boxes im a strap. I paid no attention to his knock. At 12 he gave a farmer 50 cents to let him drive his load of hay into my yard. Addressing the hustler he said: ‘Ask the boss if this hay will do.’ * We don’t want hay; we are looking for straw.’ At 2, I noticed a man dressed in black, wearing a high beaver and white choker, distributing tracts across the way. With a measured step he crossed the street and tried the door—locked; rap- peda solemn tip-tap. I looked through the side light; there he was again, holding a tract against the pane entitled ‘The Wa to Succeed.’ I whispered softly fusing the keyhole: ‘The only way I know is to crawl through the flue.’ Weli, sir, he got disappointed at last.” —‘* Rambler” in Hali- fox Echo.
