in their power to contribute to bis comfort. He j
was now convalescent, and siuhing into a sound '

next day, much refreshed ; but as neither his host
nor his sister made their appearance, he enqui
red for them anil learnt that they had been cal
led up in the night, and had gone some distance
to attend the dy ing bed of a near relative. Not
thinking it necessary to explain to il,r old nurse,
ho did not state tuber wh > lie was, but waited
anxiously l or. tho ro-appeurnnee of Mary, whom
lie already began to feci an interest Ibr. The
next day lie was surprised by a visit from his cap-
lain, who staled that the horse had Ion ml its way
back to the livery stable without a rider, which
the owner reported to the ship; he laid tried to
find out w hat bad become of the mate, but could
not until that very day; he had heard at an inn
that a young sailor had been hurt, ami was lying
j at Mi.—s The cantata added tint the ship
I had been suddenly ordered to sea, hail taken iu
j her cargo, ami was ready to sail with that aficr-
! noon's tide. Ther» being no time to lose, the
' mate wrote a letter to the surgeon, which lie left
unsealed on the table, and iu -which he said all
j that was ucccssary, including an intention to rc-
i visit them on his noxt Voyage. A carriage was
; then procured, and lie,'though feebfe. went to
j Liverpool, and that cvcuing soiled iu Lis old ves-

unfortunately was never received by those for
whom it was intended, being, as was supposed,
obtained, r<ead and destroyed by a young lawyer,
w ho had made Alary au offer of marriage, and
bad been rofmed, but w ho still visited the house
TlnSson their return homo. Mary ard her brother
were still tv'tbont the least elite to the “local
ludriiatioti or na'iiie" of their preserver, except
that the lawyer, in the course of an incidental
conversation, had sneeringly observed that the
mate was a "poor menu yankca,” but denied
knowing bis name. Mary fretted and pined n-
wav. and at last took to her bed, for almost un
consciously she hr.ib become deeply a,inched t»
the sai(or: tier, illness at last assumed a serious
cdi iraetcr, and it being evident tlnrt she wotdn
not tang survive unless she again saw the object
of her iillections, her brother, at her urgent re
quest, took ship for North America, and lauded
at Boston a few slays ago. whence they came on
to this city on Sunday night. The passage, and
t! c hope ol* meeting one she loved, restored her
to comparative health and strength, and they
put up at a private boft'ditig house iu Pear! street.
Thus had Mary travelled double the distance of
Bccket’s mother, without even knowing, the
Christian or surname of her beloved. Ju the

transferred to the command of a merchantman

Instead ofbeing taught the mechanic arts, the

the awl or needle, the anvil and lap stone—in
stead of practical industry, tcmperaucc aud in
tegrity, they arc taught to read their-table and
sing hymns. They all begin at the wrong end
—they attempt to finish the superstructure before
they have laid the foundation. But the movers
in the graud religious scheme feel strong in the
faith—they aresur- that God is with them. They
raise $100,000. to teach the negroes religion,
while thousands of their own poor in Irc'and are
perishing with hunger, actually dying, with want
—they must dit? in a land of plenty, because it is
.deemed more charitable to look alter the souls of
