MXSCF.I.I.ANT. From the London Lrlernry Magnet. THE PBAMTOM HAND. I see a band you cannot see, Which beckons me away. In q lonely part of the bleak and- rock* coast of Scotland, there d welt a being who was designated by the ftfcr who knew and feared him, the( Warlock Fisher. He was, in truth, a singular and fearful old man. For years ho had followed bis dangerous occupation alone (ad venturing forth in weather which appalled the stoutest of tho stout hearts that occasionally ex changed a word with him in passing to and frd in their mutual employment. Of his name, birth or dcscont nothing was known; bnt the fecundity of conjecture had supplied an unfail ing stock of materials on ihose points. a Soine said he wtu the devil incarnate; others said he was a Dutchman, or some other “far away for* eigner,” who had fled to those comparative solitudes fora shelter, from the retribution due to some grievous crime; and all agreed that he was neither a Scot nor a true man. In out ward form, however, he was still “a model of a man,” tall and well made; though in years, his natural strength was far from l>ein» abated. His matted black hair, hanging In cff-lock4 a- botit his ears and shoulders, together with the perpetual sulienness which seenipd native iu the expression of his features, ne.^ter regular nor pleasing, gave him an appearance unondti- rabiy disgusting, . lie lived aione, in a hovel of his own construction, partially scooped oiu of the rock*-wsra never known to have suffered a visiter within his wah^—to have Spoken a kind word, or done q kind action. Once, indaed, h* performed an act wbt«b, in a letu? omoiou* being would had been isbod Ihe for tho Jltore—there was a fattier and two sons iu it. Tho danger became eniminent, ns they neared.the rocky promontory of the. fisher—■ and the boat upset. Women and boys were screaming and gesticulating from the beach, in all the wild and useless energy of despair, tint assistance was bo where to be seen. Tho fa ther and one of the lads disappeared frir ever; but theyouEger boy clung, with extraordinary resolulion, to the inverted vessel. By -acci dent, the Warlock Fisher, came to the door of his hovel, saw tho drowning lad, and plunged instantaneously into the sea. For some min utes ho wjs invisible amid the angry turmoil, but be styara like an inhabitant of that fearful element, and bore the boy iu safety to the hr each. From fatigue or fear, or tho effects of both uni* ted, tho poor lad died shortly aferwartls, and his grateful relatives industriously insisted, that he had beon blighted in tho grasp of bis unltal* lowed resiuer! ... Towards the end of autupin, tho weather fro* quently becomes ao broken aud stormy in those parts, as to render tho susto imice derived from fishing extremely precarious Ag-lnat this, however, the Warlock Fisher ,was provided; tor, caringlittle for weather, and apparently less for Id*’, he went nut in all seasons and was known to be absent for day's,, during the most violent storms, when every itopo of seeing, him again nas lost. Still nothing harmed'him ; ho came drilling back again, the way ward, dnfear* ing, unhallowed animal. To account for this, it was understood that ho was in connexion tvith smugglers: that his days of absence, wore spent in their service—in recohnoitoring for their safety, nnd assisting their relations. IVhatever of truth there might bn jn it, i; vkas well known that the Warlock Fisher-never wanted aideut spirits; and so free was lie in their use, and of tobacco; that he has been heard, in a long and dreary winter’s evening, carolling songs iu a, strange tongue, with till the fervor of an inspir* ed bacchanal. It has been said, joii; at such times he held strange talk with some .who nev* er answered, deprecated sights which no one else could see, and exhibited the fury of an out- rageoiy mauine. It was towards the close of an autumn day; that a tall young than was seen ^ttrvoying tho btfrren rocks, aud apparently deserted shores, near th;- dwelling ofthe fisher. Ho wore die enquiring aspttct of a stranger, and yet his step indicated a previdusacquaintaneq with the scone. The sun was flinging his boldest radiance on the rolling ocean, as .the youth ascended tbo nigged path which Jed.to tfio .Warlock Fishm’s hut.. He surveyed tho door for a moment, as if to bo certain of the spot; nnd then, with One stroke of his foot, dashed tho door in wards,— It was damp and tonantless. Tho-stranger sOt down his bundle, kindled a lire, and re mained in quiet possession. In u few hour the fisher returned. He started invdiumaVdy at tho sight of the intruder, wh.o sprang to tiis feet, ready for anal tentative. “What-seek you in my hut 1” said tho Fish* er; ‘A shelter far the night—the hawks are out 1* “Who. directed you to mot” “Old acquaintance!” i . “Never saw you with my eyes—shiver me I But never mind, you-lock like the breed—* ready hand and it light heel, ha! All’s right- tap your keg 1" - No sooner said than done. - The keg was broached, nnd a good brown basin of double Hollands was brimming nt tho lips of tho War- lock Fisbor. Tho stranger did himself a sim ilar sorvico.’and they wore friendly. Tho fish er could not avoid placing his.hand -before his eyes onco or twice, us ifho wished to avoid tho keen gaze of tho stranger, who still plied the fire with fuel und his bust with hoilands. Reserve was at length annihilated and ihd Fisher jocuo lurlysnid— “Well,so we’re old acquaintance, bit!” .“Ay,” said tho young man, with unothef searching glance. “I was in doubt at first but now I’m certain.” “And what’s to bedono !”s-t:tl tlio Father. “An hour after midnight vou must ptttmo on board———’s boat; she’ll be abroad. Tbev’ll run a light to the ntast hi-id, for which you’ll steer. Yotir’e agoodhand at thqholm in,iidark and rough sea.” “How, if I will not1” was the reply. - "Then your lilts or mine I” They sprang to their feet simultaneously j and an immediate encounter seemed inevitable. “Pshai” said the Fislior, sinking on his so at, “what madness this is! It was a’thought warm with the liquor; -and the recollections of past \times were rising On ray momory. Think noth ing of it. I hepid those words once before,’* and he ground bis teeth in rage. “Yes, onte, but in a shriller voice than yours! Sometimes, ton, the bastard rises to my view; and then I smite so-;-bihl give-us 1 anotner basin full. He struck short at vacancy, snatched the bev- er-tge lYuni tbe stranger, utul drank it off. “An hour after midnight,said yel" ■ .’’Ah you’ll see no bastards then.” “Worse—may 1 be—worsef" muttered the Fisher, sinking into abstraction, ami glaring Wildly on tho flickering embers before him. "Why, how’s this?” said the stranger.— “Are your senses playing bo-peck with ilje ghost of somo pigeon-livereu coast captain, eh T Come, take another pull at the keg, to clear your head lights, tula tell us a bit of your duly.” The Fisher took unoihor draught, and pro ceeded— V ' 1 "About five and twenty years aeo, a stran ger cnnio to this hut—may the course of God annihilate him !”■— ' • ’ "Amen to that," said the yonng ma.-j. "He brought with bhn a boy and a girl, a purse of gold, and- - -—the arch 6eu,t’s tOnguo to tempt me! Well, it was to lake the.>*e chil dren out to sea—rupset tho boat—and lose them!” - ■ : l , ■ ' “And voa did to,” interrupted the stranger. • “I tried—but hsie'ft; , On » fine evening.I took them out; -ho sun sank rapidly, and I by th*freshening of lUahrocSo, there w< a norm.' I wan not mistaken. It can i vcft faster that! I wished, rated—the boy, in j j he iosutqd th«t
