In the year 1824, a murder was eaid to iiRvo been committed in Macon, upon the Body of ohe Jacob Sacrns, ownofi of the. large thick yard on the Ocmul|roe, ab«ve the bridge, by one Michael O'Shea, an over seer of tha workmen <jf said Smiths O'Shea was arrested, and confessed that he had d deceased, and would do the same a under similar circumstances. He was tried and convicted. There Were some facts of the' case which went to create the impres sion that O'Shea was not guilty of murder, and hence toere was a great suidf among hie friend* to save his lift. . ; ; The jail of thecesuitg was then but a pen of hewed kgs covered over, thffee Wand let O'Shea pate-hut the citizens were on the alert, and ha was captured as ften and imprisoned, iifid a etfaiigguard htarpngdlhejail; - Trttftris Win sent*to the Governor, hot the tiiae drew near, the •d, umT aH. hepe seemed .tkk'TdemwBhewaK the poor criminal, erho had now given up all hope and was resigniaf to kave laSor below, for an anticipated refreshment above.

Mr DeClair was a wealthy merchant of about fifty reriding in one of our eastern cit ies, a man of well known integrity who, by- own individual exertion, unaided byr friends or gold, had raised himself to the eminence which he now occupied. He possessed be nevolence and intelligence, yet it was com bined with a firm and nnyielding disposi tion. Robert, his only child, was in his twenty-second year, of a handsome figure and polished manners, and bearing ah ex emplary character'. After making the above request, Mr. De- Clair retired to his room, where, boob after, he was joined fils Son’. Taking a seathy the side of his father, who at the moment of bis entrance, was engaged in perusing the morning paper, he awaited Ills pleasure. In a few nirautc8 ihe old gentleman laid aside the paper, and turning towards his son he chmmenceS— ’ u Robert, 1 have .requested your presence this morning, that 1 might have a few words of conversation with yon upon a matter which clooeljr concerns you; not the affair of an hour or day, but one which concern* your wfcol* life, ami one which I hope you wiH seriotis'.y consider, as; Votir future hap-' may depend upon it, and likewise that you. will -concur in my opinions upon j fuses to wed your daughter.” the subject.” mj" ‘ " Said the son, noticing that ta father paused.

Ihgy rktitni fion CHAPTER n. Within an hour after the above conversa tion had taken place, Robert ?)eClair was in close commnnieaiion with his betrothed, and in tones of sorrow, detailed to her‘the whole of that morning’s events., «• How strange,” she replied—and tears could be seen leaving their traces upon her cheeks—c^liow strange; why father spoke to me this very morning upon the same sub- joct. Not all my entreaties; not all my sup plications could serve to waver for a moment his unchangeable resolution; and when I i told him my heart was given to anotber r he said that ill married against his will, he would disown me and cast me from his door. He has pledged my hand, and nothing ca^ alter his resolve; but dear Robert, rest as sured that nothing ean change mine.”. « Who is this- man to whom he has pledg ed you i” asked Robert. A Even that 1 know not, he only informed me that he was the son of an old and Weal thy friend. And now what course sh^Jl wy paVs'ie ? My father persists in tuy union with the man of his choice, and you k&oW bis will is unwavering.” Clasping her in his arms, and kissing a- way her tears, her lover said— •i Come what will, they shall not part us. Mary, there is but one path left to follow, aiid that is to fiy from such tyranny, .and render ourselves happy by giving me the power to protect-you—as your husband they willnot dare to dispute that right, aod as my wife you shall be secure.” « With some reluctance, I undertake the task, but anything, dear Robert, which you think is for‘the best, I concur in.” “ Yes, sweetest, we must'and will do it, the step must be tajich, and with as little delay as possible, for if we de&ir it, some obstacle may arise and render our plans im practicable.” The plan was arranged ; at twelve ffclock that eight he was to he in waiting for her, at a short'distance from her father's house, with a carriage, which was to convey them to the landing about a mile off, where, they would take the first boat, for New York, find there be united. Let tis now follow Mr. BeClair, Wbo after leaving the room repaired to his coutitibg house in no very pleasant mood. Hia. thoughts were not with his business, and he departed to seek the presence of Mr. Barling to whose' daughter he had pledged .the hafid of hi* son.
