their encampment for the night. I he tents were 1
set up. the night-fire threw its gleam upon the
wafer, the weary horses were feeding, the evening
repast was over, and preparations were made for
repose. The party consisted of three brothers,
with their families, who were wending their way
to tlie new lands of the distant Missouri. On
their visages, where the agrfe had left the sallow
traces of its touch, few of the nobler traits of hu
man character were visible. Accustomed to re
side upon the outskirts of society, little versed in
its forms, and as little accustomed to the restraints
of law. or the duties of morality, they were the fit
pioneers of civilization, because their frames were
prepared for the utmost endurance of fatigup, a

Ap'Hamilton wns riding slowly homeward, en* I * # * 0 9 *
gaged in thought, ami holding his bridle loosclv. The summer had passed away. The hand of
a deer sprang suddenly from a thicket, nnd fell 1 autumn had begun to tinge with mellow hues the
in the real, before his horse, who started and magnificent scenery of the forest. It was evening
threw him lo the ground. In examining the deer, ' and the clear moonbeams were shining through
which had been mortally wounded, and was still | 'be grates of the prisoner’s cell. The unhappy
struggling, some of the blood was sprinkled on I man, haggard, attenuated and heart-broken, was
his dress, which had been otherwise soiled hy his ! lying upon his wretched pallet, reflecting niter-
fall. Pnyiig little attention to these circumstan
ces. he retimed home.
Though Yin absence had been brief, many hands
grasped his in cordial welcome, many eyes met
his own in love, for few of the young men of the
country, wag so universally beloved, and so much
respected as Hamilton. But to none was his re
turn so acceptable as to Almira — Site had
been his playmate in infancy, his schoolmate in
childhood, in maturer years their intimacy had
ripened into love, and they were soon to he uni
ted iti the holiest and dearest nf ti»*s. But the
visions of hope was soon to pass from them, as
the mirage of tlte desert, that mocks the eye of
the thirsty traveller, and then leaves him a death-
devoted wanderer mi tlie arid waste.
A vague report was brought to the village, that
the body of a murdered man was found near
Scoltville. It was first mentioned by n traveller,
in company where Hamilton wns present; am!
lie instantly exclaimed, * no doubt it is Saunders—
How unfortnnate that 1 left him!’ and then retir
ed under grest excitement. Ilis manner ami
expressions awakened suspicion, which was un
happily corroborated by a variety of circumstan
ces, that were cautiously whispered hy those, who
dare not openly arraign a person whose whole
conduct through life had been honest, frank and
manly, lie had ridden away with Saunders, who
was known to have been in possession of a large
sum of money. Since his return he had paid off
debts to a considerable amount. The penknife
of Saunders was recognized in his hand—vet
none were willing, on mure surmise, to hazard a
direct accusation.
The ell’eet of the intelligence upon Hamilton
was marked. The sudden death of a dear friend
is hard to he supported ; hut when one who is
loved and esteemed, is cut off hy the dastardly
hand of the assasin, the pang of bereavement be
comes doubly great; and, in this instance, the
towards his benefactor, caused him to mourn over
the catastrophe with a melancholy anguish- lie
would sit lor hours in a state of abstraction,
from which even the smile of love could not n-
waken him.
The elections were at hand ; and Hamilton wns
a candidate for the Legislature. In the progress
of the canvass, the foul charge wns openly made,
and propagated with tlie remorseless spirit of par
ty animosity. Yet he heard it not, until one eve
ning as he sat with Almira, in her father’s house.
They were conversing in low accents, when the
sound of an approaching footstep interrupted
ately upon the early wreck of bright hopes, tlie
hour of ignominy that was just approaching, anti
the dread futurity into which lie should soon be
plunged. It was the season with which his mar
riage with Almira was to have been solemnized.
With what pride and joy had he locked forward
to this hour! And now, instead of tlte wedding
festivities, the lovely bride, and the train of con
gratulating friends, so often pictured in fancy, he
realized letters, a dungeon, and a disgracelul death!
'Fhe well -known head of the jailor interrupted the
bitter train ol thought. The door opened, and
as the light streamed (rum a lantern across the
cell, lie saw a female form timidly approaching.
In a moment Almira had sunk on her knees be
side him, and their hands were silently clasped to
gether. There are occasions when tlte heart
spurns all constraint and acts up to its own dic
tates, careless of public opinion, or prescribed
forms ; when love become.* the absorbing and n
ruling passion ; nnd when (tint whicti under other
circumstances would be mere unlicensed impulse
becomes a hallowed and imperious duty. That
noble-hearted girl had believed to the last, that
her lover would he honorably acquitted. The in
telligence of bis condemnation, while it blighted
her hopes, and withered h«*r health, never disturb
ed.for one moment her conviction of his inno
cence. There is an union of hearts which is tin-
destructible, which marriage may sanction ami
nourish, and hallow, hut which separation cannot
destroy—a love that endures while life remains, or
until its object shall prove faithless or unworthy.
Such was tlte affection of Almira; ami she held
her promise to love and honor him, whose fidelity
to her was unspotted, whose character she consi
dered honorable, to he as sacred as if they had
been united in marriage. When all others fur
sook* she resolved never to forsake him.
She had come to visit him in his desolation and
to risk all, to save one who was dear and innocent
in her estimation, though guilty in the eyes of the
world.
The jailor, a blunt, though humane man, brief
ly disclosed a plan which lie, with Almira, had
contrived for the escape of Hamilton. He had con
sented to allow the prisoner to escape, in female
dress while she was to remain in his stead, so that
the whole contrivance should seem to be her own.
• I am a plain man,’ continued the jailor, * Out I
know what’s right. It an’t fair to hang no man
oti suspicion—and more than that. I am not a go
ing to stand in no man’s way—especially a friend
who has done me favors, n3 von have. I go in
for giving every fellow a fair chance. The track’s

of light, mingled with the smoke and cinder, that
rose towards the clear sky of the mild May night,
revealed two travHleis of a different appearance,
who had encamped on the margin of the garni*
stream. One was n n an of thirty. Several years
passed in the laborious practice of medicine, in
a Soti'hern climate, had destroyed his constitu
tion, and he had come to breathe the lira
of a higher latitude.
fanned into new vigor the waning fires of life, and
he was now returning to the home of his adop
tion with a renovated frame. The young man who
sat hy him, was a friend, to whom he had paid a
visit, nnd who was now attending him a short dis
tance. on his journey. They had missed their
way, and reluctantly asked a sullen permission of
the emigrants to share tljeir roar*,? Inre, rattier
than wander in the dark, through unknown forests.
Hamilton, the younger of the two, was, perhaps,
twenty seven years of age. and was a gentleman
of prepossessing appearance, of cultivated mind,
and of a chiva'rous and sensitive disposition.—
Ilis parents were indigent, and he had hy the en
ergy of his own talents and industry, redeemed
them from poverty, and placed them in easy cir
cumstances. In one of his commercial expedi- i wretchedness of
lions down the Mississippi, he had met with j
Saunders, the physician. An intimacy ensued, i
which though brief, had already ripened into ma
ture friendship.
* Affection knoweth not of time,
It riseth like the vernal flowers ;
The heart puhe is its only chime,
And feelings are its hours.’
Together they ha.I hunted over the flowery bar- '
rens, and through the majestic forests of their na- !
live State—had sealed th»* precipice, and swain j
the torrent—had explored the cavern, and visited !
whatever was wonderful or curious in the reg*on j
around them; and both looked forward with pain
ful feelings to the terminn'ion o r an intercourse
which had been pleasing and instructive. As
they were to separate in the morning, the eve- .
ning was spent in conversation—in the copious i
and involuntary flow of kindness and confidence i
which the heart pours out at the moment when !
friends are about to sever, when the past is re- |
called and the future anticipated, and iriendshif
no longer silent nor motionl
like the beauty of til
most obvious at the moment of its dissolution.
Early in the morning, the two friends prepared
to pursue their journey. As they were about to
of the emigrants advanced towards
them, and remarked :
‘I reckon. Strangers, you allow to camp at
Seottville to-night V
4 Ye*,’mid .Saunders, ‘ I do.’
4 Well, then, I can tell you a cut, that’s a
heap shorter than the road you talk of taking—

placed above suspicion, you must he sensible that
the proposed union cannot take place, nnd that
your visits to my house must he discontinued.’
4 What does my father mean?’ inquired the
young lady, anxiously, as her indignant parent
retired.
4 1 do not know,* replied the lover, 4 it is some
electioneering story, no doubt, which 1 ran nisi-

' or you, a moment s uneasiness.
4 It shall cause me none.’ replied fhe confiding
girl ; 4 I cannot believe any evil of you.*
He retired—sought the nature of his charge, i
and to his inexpiessiblc astonishment and horror, !
learned that lie was nccu**d of the murder and
robbery of his friend! in a state little short nf!
distract ion, he retired to his room, recalled with !
painful minuteness all tse circumstances cun- I
nrcted with the melancholy catastrophe, and fur
the fir^t time, saw the dangerous ground on which
he stood. But proud in conscious innocence,
he fe.t that ro withdraw at that stage of the can
vass might he construed into a confession of
guilt. He remained a candidate, and was bea
ten. Now, for the first time, did ho feel the
condemned and degraded man. , „

thousand deaths rather than injure the fair fame
of this confiding girl.’
4 Go, Dudley—my dear Dudley, she sobbed,
4 for my sake, for the sake of your broken-heart
ed father and sister—’
4 Do not tempt me—my dear Almira. I will
never do that, which will expose you to dis
grace.’
4 Oh, who would blame me.’
4 ’The world, the uncharitable world, they who
believe me a mird' rer, and have tortured the most
innocent actions into proofs of deliberate villainy,
will not hesitate to brand you as a victim of a cold
blooded felon. And why .should I fly? to live a
wretched wanderer, with the brand ol Cain on my
forehead, and a character stamped with infa-
■ntenco of conviction ;
tie would have said more—but fhe form that do
ling this brief dialogue, had sunk into his arms,
was laying lifeless on his bosom- lie kissed her
cold lips, and passionately repeated her name—
hut she heard him not-—her pure spirit had gen
tly disengaged itself, and was flown forever. Her
heart was broken. She had watched, and wept, j
and prayed in hopeless grief, until the physical j
energies of a delicate frame were exhausted ; and i
the excitement of the last scene had snapped the I
attenuated thread of life.
Hamilton did not survive her long. His health !
was already shattered hy long confinement, and tlie
haffing ol a proud spirit. Almira had died for I !.
own mother--oh! how cautiously
“ If you have tears, prepare to shed them dow.”
“ Swept sensibility ! oh In !
I heard n little In mb say, Bn/
Maid I. you’ve lost vour Ma.
All!”
A country paper has the following 4 elegant ex
tract.’ which must prove a rich treat to all, 4 both
great and small,’ who love poetic prose. The
truth of this lie:i r t rending story is, of course un
questioned.
“Tiik last Kiss.-—We liavo to record the
melancholy fate of two fond lovers, who both
perished at the recent explosion of an English
steam boat.---They were seated together when the
accident took place, and were blown up into the
air, when the gentleman threw his arms around
th»- fair one’s neck and snati bed one hasty kiss.
Within twenty seconds from that time, 6oi/i thsir
bodies burst, and descended into Iht river in a show
er of atoms."
Who can read this 4 touch of the sublime’ with
out thinking of the poet turned slioujmun y .—-fot
such sometimes is the line of genius.
After having exhibited the various wax figures
in Ins, no doubt choice collection, he camo to
those of Burr nnd Hamilton. 4 These individu
als, gentlemen,’ said the man of wax, are the
persons of Aaron Burr and)Alexander Hamilton.
4 'They met to fight a duel on the battle-field,
with war in each one’s heart, and in each one’*
hand -a pistol. And fs such the issue?’ then
like a true poet, raising hisgeye* to henfen, aud
struggling lor one moment with the vastneas of
the thought, lie poured forth his soul in these rich
strains of poesy :
“Oh! Burr, oh Burr! wlint hast thou done 1
Thou hast Mn»ofi*d the great Hamilton,
Behind a hush, just hy ii thistle,
Hamilton was shoot hy a great lioia piitol."
A Tailor’s Bill.— We extract the following
from the Weekly Museum of Nov. 2, 1799—a pa
per formerly published in New-York*-the joke ia
too good not to lie transcribed.
An unfortunate tailor, who had committed some
law business to the hands of an attorney well
practised in ilis profession, bad a bill containing
such a variety of charges that he thought himself
fleeced nr st unmercifully.—The only aatisfac-
turn »hat occurred to him, wa? to prevail on the
