TH~ DEATH OF ALICE BLAND
T'.iE >■ THOR OF ‘"TALES OF A riLGRIM. J
Au-r . I m domicijc‘l once more under
your roof; I It ive my appointed chair nt
yr.*T h i ; l rble board; ami I walk at even
\p Hip shade of th ancestral trees that
O.iibi wer your mansion. Your Liur-, ta
ionised ir her beauty, hails me every mur
•mtg v.-fth benignant smile*; and your two
*iir children diiiy dispart in innocent gaiety
around ‘my knee*. You ask me whit has
became of that sister of whom I used lo
spe ik so often, when we were sojourners
in the American wilderness*—her whoru I
was wont to regard as the only star that
beckoned me back to my native country, i
The subject is a sad o h; but to you, fath
f-iilest of friends, 1 can refuse nothing.—
Pardon me, if you find my pen dwell too
long on a few simple incidents. Some al
lowance may suiely b’ made for the pro
lixity of chastened grief,
Alice was my only sister; the sole sur
vivor of all my kindred; and it was there
s re no marvel that I felt deeply distressed
when intelligence of her illness reached mo
in a distant laud. Nearly ten years had
td psed since our separation. She was then
n fair haired, bright eyed child in her so-
Vtnfh year—l a heedless, and, perhaps,
somewhat headstrong youth, fifteen years
her senior; and feverishly eager to exchange
my quiet home for the tented field. I soon
forgot amid the turmoil of war, the solemn
{irewvll of our widowed mother; bull ne
ver lost remembrance of the tearful eyes
and last gentle embrace of the darling of
our household hearth.
Five yeavs afterwards my brother fol- 1
lo.ved me to the army You may remem
ber, Austin, that it was soon after we had
driven the French beyond the Ebro, that
he joined our banner—as brave and gene
ious hearted a youth as Britain ever sent
forth to fight her battles. Before the ex
piration of a month, you saw him stricken
down lifeless by my side. Green, forever
green be the Navarrese valley in which his
young bones moulder! A brother's har;d
wiped the last drops of agony from his
blood —dewed brow—a brother’s glance
alone could now discover his ston&less
g.ave. *
The Spanish war terminated triumphant
ly fur our country. Thin as reeds, and
nob ;y as Moors, from five years exposure
to u burning sub; honoied, too, with some
memorinfs of our services, we looked for
ward, Austin, with pride and joy to thoday
*nat should restore us to our kindred. In
the very midst of these anticipations; at the
very moment when wo heard the shouts of
ihout’Ands of our home returning soldiers,
over the blue waved Garonne,
the vision of peace departed. Gur regi*
aieut tis ordered to America; and at such
a juncture tve cutdd nut with honor forsake ■
::s standard.
Wo sa v Hood shed in the v/e&t; as the
shores ot i.h? t otontac 2nd Itlississippi fes-
Itfiefl; aind there we butied maty of the
bravest of onr baud; men who had surviv
ed no loss th in five victorious campaigns
against the chivalry *>f France, and who
deserved a prouder fate than to be struck
down in toe wilderness by Yankee bullets.
Dreams of home again took possession of
js when the war ended; but for me they
were as shortlived as.before. While other
corps sailed homewards, the vessel in which
mine had embarked, but to winch ypu, Aus
tin, fortunately no longer belonged, stood
away for the waters of St. Lawrence; and
for three years I w.is condemned to vege
tate in a remote fortress in the forests of
Canada. There I received intelligence
that I was motherless; that Alice, just ri
sing into womanly beauty, and dispoiled of
her little patrimony by legal chicane, stood
alone in the wide world; and saddest of all,
that merciless consumption—the disease
that hud bent down the parent stem—
threatened also to lop away the tender scion
that had flourished under its shade. I
could bear expatriation no longer. In less
than a month after (he receipt of this infor
mation, I was on my way across tire Atlan
tic to give her succor.
Alice bad dated her last letter from the
Isle of Wjght, whither she had been carri
ed, after her mother s death, by an amiable
lady, who, commisserating her forlorn si
tuation, and won upon by her many rale
and endearing qualities, had generously re
solved that a creature so formed to be lov
ed should not be left to die without au ef
fort being made to save her. Need 1 say, j
therefore,, that to iny homeward turned
eyes the while headlands of that island were !
objects of intense interest, or that I availed
myself of the first opportunity to debark.
1 question much whether the certainty of
irremediable woe is so harassing to the
he * f, as the apprehension of impending i
evil—tlm ‘hope that keeps alive despair. 1
J * uteri dnod a presentment that I should
find Alice oil hejr Jfier; and my trembling
bps could scarcely give utterance to the
inquiries necessary to acquaint me with the i
place of her residence. I found it vacant, ’
and there was a temporary relief even in •
that vacancy. Unaware of my movements,!
aud sanguine that a change of scone would
contribute to her restoration to health, her
protectress had resolved on trying the effect
of the air of France. They had boon gone !
barely a fortnight, and I determined to fol- j
low them without delay. I had business
vi some consequence, regarding our small I
patrimony to transact in England; but I I
was contented that it should remain undone
till I had indulged the bent of fraternal
affection, and tried whither a brother’s pre*
e could not le-invigorate my poor j
Alice’s sinking frame
a small town in the south
western currier of Normandy, was the place
win re thpy in tended to reside. The most
expeditious way f WT me to reach it was to
e: no ark >•'• tie of tLo packets plyiag ke
uvec:* Southamton end Jersey, and from
ttv,i •si and run across in a Fundi market
bv;.i -to Granville. In accordance with
thi* p!.?o, l boarded the first vessel thar
and through the Solent tor&r. Hdipr;
aud ero tiro sun want clown beyond the
waves we were ploughing, the English
shore was barely visible on the northern
horizon.
Our voyage was tedious, and it was the
morning of the third day before we came
in sight of Jersey, and doubled the perilous
Corbiere. The wind blew stiffly from the
south east, and we made the bay of St
Anbin “itb. some difficult)’. On landing
at St. Helier, I made immediate inquiry for
a vessel to carry me to Granville; but
though several barks belonging to that port
lay moored in the harbor, and groupes of
Norman market girls, with their plaited
pettico ts and picturesqus coifs, were ling
ering on the quay .anxious to depart, none
of the skippers would undertake to put to
sea, until the wind should chop about into
a fivorable quarter. Convinced, by their
representations, that delay was absolutely
requisite, I tried to curb my patience; and,
to beguile the interval, set off on a ramble
to the eastern side of the island.
Ft was in the midst of September. The
harvest had been some time reaped,and the
orchards, for which Jersey is so famed, re
sounded witluhe jocund laugh of the young
villagers, employed in gathering the abun
dant produce. I wandered as far as Mount
Orgueli, and from the ramparts of that an
cient fortress, spent an hour in gazing on
the F‘*enc!i const, which is visible almost
from Cape do la Hogue to Mont St. Michel.
The rock strewn channel that intervenes,
was covered with breakers, and I saw that
tiie French boatmen had sound reasons for
declining to put to sea in such adverse wea
ther. I thought of Alice—:ny dying Alice
—and wished for the wings of a bird to
bear me like au arrow accross the foamy
strait.
| Near Mount Orgueli, half buried among
leaves and biosoms, is a humble village
churcli—the church of Granville.*- Groves
i of richly-fuliaged trees embower it, and in
summer the smiling parsonage is literally
covered with the fragrant parasitical plants
thkt climb the w’ali, and wreath round even
its highest lattices. I paused at the white
gate rbat opens into the small burying
ground, and gazed listlessly at the head
stones that crowd it. The viscissitu us of
my life passed in brief review before me.
Here, after a cembat of fifteen years with
the world, I stood a solitary man. Mv
whole youth had besn spent in exile; my
knowledge of happiness was limited to the
suavity of (ho barrack room, and the tur
moil of a camp. The friends of my young
er years—saving you, Austin—had depart
ed. Some had fallen in battle by my side
some the yellow plague had snrutterTin our’
canvass hones, and had pitted and died in
captivity; and a few, very few. had for -
gotten me jn tliQ Sunshino of our paternal
hearths, f had gained some distinction in
n, V profession, but who was left to take
■ pride in my honor*? No one, save Alice—
• and slig too was on the eve of being ended
i away. My heart grew sad even unto
!dortih.
I was roused From my moralizing mood
by the sound of wheels, and a small travel
ling cart drove up to the gate at which I
. was stationed -It was obcupied by two fe
j males—one a grave benevolent looking
; matron—he other one of hose sylphlike
| visions of feminine ‘ eauty, that linger on
i eart h but for a brief season and then p iss
away forever info the grave. She was
pale, very pale; but it was the paleness of
perfect loveliness that purity of complex
ion, which belongs not (o eanb but to hea
ven. The young eloquent blood was visi
ble in every vein that traversed her polish
ed forehead; and there was a gentle fire in
her dark blue eye, and a smile of innocent
meekness on iier lips, that might have gra
ced a seraph.
The car was attended by a coarse look
ing bind, and politeness required me to as
sisi the ladies to alight; for such l perceiv
ed m be their intention. They frankly
accepted of my services, and when I learn
ed that their object was to visit a grave in
•be cemetry, I further took upon me to
find it out. Tne task was not a difficult one,
and the elder lady knelt down upon the
green tumulous in silent prayer. I gather
ed that it was the grave of a daughter who!
had been torn from a wide circle ot friends,
at the very moment when fortune shed its
blessings around her. The pale girl wept
when she saw her companion weep—wept,
it may be, at the certainty of her own ap
proaching fate, “If I die in the strange
country we are going to,’ I heard her mur
mur, as 1 lead them back to the vehicle,
“let me be burned in this quiet spot; and
my brother, when he returns,’* Her voice
giciv tremulous and indistinct. I reseated
them in their car, and the}’ drove away.
For many succeeding hours the features
of that pale girl haunted me like an repara
tion. I saw her darkly fringed lustrous
ryes perpetually fixtu on mo; my ear re
cognised in every gentle sound the melody
cf her plaintive voice. Even in the w itch
es of the night, she .flitted like a beautiful
vision around my couch J was glad when
the morning came—doubly glad, for it re
lieved me from uneasy dreams, and brought
the mas’er of a Granville boat, who an
nounced that the wind w. s fair, and that he
intended to put to sea. I hastened down ,
to the quay, and -there, to my surprise,
found the two strangers who had occupied
SQtJjromiuent a place in my midnight cogi
tations, prepaiing to embark in the same
vessel The younger one looked even
more pale and drooping than when I had
seen her ou the previous evening. They
had been roused at what was for an invalid
ari unseasonable hour; and the morning
j breeze, as it swept in gusty puffs over the
fortified height commanding the harbour
seemed to pierce through her delit tc
frame, though closely enveloped in a fur—
lined mantle. I saluted them on the fait
of our former introduction, and they gran -
fully acceptea ot my assistance ip embaiu
ittg.
She was eloquent, 140, rnd many of he
r.-’maths indiviated the perfection of femiu
me intelligence. “Jt J doomed nevei
to sco Alice more,” thought I, “hue 1
have found her image.”
[A dreadful storm arose, in which the
vessel was nearly lost.]
The invalid suffered much, for the deck
was momentarily washed by the billows
from stun to stearn. I saw her strength
was wasting rapidly, and entreated her to
rro below, and sock shelter beside her friend.
She shook her head in token of dissent.—
“1 shall suffocato there,” was her answer;
*Janj sinco I am to die under any circum
stances, lei my last breath be the pure air
of heaven.”
“I am grateful fi*r your anxiety to quint
my apprehensions,”said she, “but in reali
ty, 1 am not afraid of the sea, whatever
may be the construction you put on my de
portment Wlmt does it signify, since
God wills that lam speedy to die, wheth
er I perish in the waves, or by the sure
progress of disease? It is here’—she laid
her hand on her heart—“that I feel the
monitor of death. What a strange fate is
mine—an orphan gill—indebted to stran
gers for the kind offices that are so grate-,
ful to tiie sickly and the dying—and desti
ned, perhaps, to dose my eyes, on <i rock
amid these turbulent waves.”
‘♦An orphan, * said 1, and I took her
hand, and looked steadily ot> her face—
“how deeply—how very deeply these
words affect me! 1 too am an orphan, but I
am a man, and can struggle bravely through
the world though I have no paternal heartb.
But I have a sister—young, fair, and deso- j
late as yourself—one who at this very mo
ment is perhaps gasping her last with the
same insiduous disease, that makes you
tie nble, unconscious that her wandering
brother is almost other side.”
“Happy girl,” she rejoined, “how am
ply will she be blessed if she only lives to
lie down in death on your breast! My bro
ther is far, far distant—a thousand leagues
beyond these foaming billows. He is joy
ous in his tent by the rushing waters of Nia
gara—and joyous may his brave heart be
long after that of his poor Alice is stilled
forever.
“■Alice!” I ejaculated -->emotieri%tiflii g
my words—“ Towers of mercy! is it possi
ble? Tell me, gentle one, or 1 s all die—
tell me that brother s name.
“Talbot Biand! ’
I clasped her to my breii f , and wept, ar, I
exclaimed, “Alice dear A ice, Talbot
Bland holds you to bis beast.”
The joyful sin prise was too touch for
her attenuated frame. She hiy powerless
in tny arms, and a faint pulsation alone told
that sho \vas alive. At intervals she open
ed her mild eyes, aud gazed tenderly on
my face; but when she tried to speak, hoi
words died awav in sighs. I saw, when it
was too late to rectify my error, that my
abrupt communication had had a fata! in
fluence on her stj ength How dear—how
unutterably, dear did I hold her at that mo
ment! How gladly would I have bartered
the rank and honours that years of perilous
service had won to have insured her life—
nay, to have merely placed her on a com
fortable couch, where her spirit might calnir
ly pass away!
At the twilight we ran under the lee of
Chausey, and anchored in a little inlet.—
Alice was numbed in every joint by the spray
that had drenched her, and her articulation
continued to be confined to indistinct mur
murs; but her looks expressed die depth oi
lier sisterly affection. I carried her ashore,
through tlve surf, to the hovel in which we
had been taughi to look for shelter; but my
heart sink in despair when I saw the mis
•oiaule accommodation it afforded, Jt was
a rude but, formed of planks, and almost
destitute of furniture ; for the'family that
inhabited it only made it their abode dur
ing the summer half of the year, and wore
contented with the simplest conveniences.
They were hospitable, however—as all
French peasants are —and readily gave us
ilie shelter wo solicited. ‘Situated as we
had lately been, I felt -thankful to see my
dying Alice laid upon a pallet—no mailer
how humble.
Until ibis was done, I .nadojno disclos
ure of our consanguinity to her kind pro
tectress, who had been brought ashore by
i Vidal and hts-sailors, ller congratulations
i pass over. She subsequently found that
f was not ungrateful. It is of Alice alone
! that 1 would speak.
We had some sea stores on board the
vessel, and put of them, together with dry
dotes for Aden, were landed. I dipped a
rusk in wine, and put it to my sister’s lips.
It partially revived her, and J had at length
the satisfaction cl seeing her drop into a
quiet sleep. Her friend lay down beside
net--; and the crew of the L<* Curionx, and
(lie kelp darter's family, gathered round
the fire of dried fuel which bad been kin
dled at my request and endeavored bo
guilt* the hours u'qh legends of the danger
ous gulf in which we were isolated. I
caught, occasionally, n few sentences of
those wild tries; but what mattered it to
me that the -Livre Noir of Contances ; told
•d’u Seigneur do 11 unbye having slain a
huge serpent in Jersey.—or that the annals
of the state prison of Mont St. Mlche! re
corded a thousand and oue tales of crime
and death? I sat by my sistei’s couch,
listening to her gentle breathings, and watch- j
ing for the flight of the imperishable spiiitj
* that already hovered on her lip*.
An hour be fore day break Alice became
restless and her respiration irregular and
obstructed. The flip had died awav, anil
a dim lamp, brought from the shallop, a
lone lighted ihe cabinc. All mv fellow
voyagers were asleep, stretched on the
hare earth; and though I saw that the fin
ger of death was already pointed at my sis
ter, / fell it useless to disturb them. They
could give no relief. Slip was passing pla
cidly into eternity, and I cared not that
they should bee my tears.’ Nevertheless, f
longed earnestly for the light of the morn
ing, and, for a moment, went to'tjie thresh*
hold to look for its fust beam The- storm
had passed away, and the sun was just lin
ing his broad disc above the Norman hills.
I heard a deep sigh proceed from the cn
biue, and hastened back to my sister s side.
Her hand returned my pressure—the lids of
her eyes were bait unclosed ; but the spirit ■
of life lighted no longer tho orbs they shuj
led. I pressed my lips to hers, but ;hey
! were cold and breathless,
j Austin bet story is tohl. From the shel
terless rock on which she died J carried
hei* remains to St. Helier’s; and in compli
ance with the wish / had heard her express
when /knew not the deep interest / had
in her existence, site was bulled at Gran
ville Sufi lio the union her virgin breast!
