But—.Thornton had a heavy Rltip freigh-

He could find no one to take bis pAice but me,
and he asked mo to go. I could not refuse; but
I asked that I might bo married first Mr.
Thornton shook his head, and i-aid no. Buthc
had another plan which he said would be bet
ter. He had been planning to visit Copenha
gen, where ho had two-brothera in brndncM*—
they were in company with him—and ho said
be would lake tlie next ship, and bring Carrie
out with hint, and wo should be married there.
I finally consented to tako out the new ship,
and Mr. Thornton, with his daughter, was to
meet rao-in Copenhagen, arid thcro wo were to
he married, and all three come home together.
The evening before I sailed Ispent with Carrie,
and when I left her I felt that 1 was leaving my
cry life.
“Well," continued Lester, wiping his eyes,
I went to Copenhagen. I waited a month-
then I heard that tho American'ship, ‘White
Fawn,’ with AVilJiam Thornton and daughter
on board, bad touched at Dover, and that all
were safe and well when she left. I waited an
other week, and then I crossed over to Ilam r
burg*; but I could learn nothing there. Next
I went t® Rondop, and there I learned enough
to assure me that the ship bad beenjost I On
the second day after she left Dover a severe
storm tiad arisen, and several Teasels had been
reported lost. It sent my ship home In chargQ
oftlie mate, and spent four months- in-search
ing after the lost ones; .but I conld gain no
trace of them. Not even a piece oj the vrrock
could I lind-not a mark of the ghip nor of one
of its crew! 1 caino bonfe with a sad and -hea-
ry heart .
Maurice Lester stopped a few. moments, and
bowed bis head upon his hands, for his foelings
bad almost overcome him. In a little while,
liowever, he looked up again, and added, in a
(onching tone,— ' -
“Ah, my dear friend, you do not know what
I have suttered—tongue eannot tell it, nor can
pen w rite it That blow did break my heart
—broke it hi tho rending of i^a tenderestcords
’and in the crushing of all its earthly hopes!—
Do you believe fp dreams
The mate starred, not so much at the char-'
actor of the question, as from tho sudden man
ner in which it was put'
“Well,,’ said Lester, in a lower tone, “I liave
bad a dream repeated many times; but never
has it come to inc so directly and so vividly as
within the past three or lour days. Oarrie
Thornton is not dead! I know she is, not!—
sho hag appeared to me repeatedly in a dream,
and calls upon mo to save her! To-night, as I
stood all alone by the mizeen rigging, trying to
peer out into the thick gloom, I heard her voice
as plainly as you now hear mine; and she call
ed out for mo to save her. Of course what fol
lowed was mere fancy, though even that affec
ted me much: I thought I saw licr, standing
not far off, upon a huge sea, with her arms
stretched imploringly towards me—saw her
then, with my eyes open, aa l have often seen
her in mv sleeping dream!—”
At this point the captain was'cut short in bis
speedijby the cry of ‘‘LionT-noF’ from the deck.
They hurried up and found the men crowding
forward. . • -i - •
’’What is it!” Lester asked.
“I think it is a light, sir,” replied Parker.
“Here, sir,—just stand here.—Now turn your
eye about four points upon the larboard bow.—
Wait, now, till she rises.—Ha-r-there!—therey
See!—Did you see it, sir V' J
Yes—lie had seen it; and hc-kncw it .must
be a liglifcupon'tb* shore. but it- was a' giwt
way ott lie watched until he luul seen it sev
eral times, and then he remarked to his mate
tiiat it must l>c a light-house. The light was
libld and distinct, and evidently at-a considera-
.ble height above the level of the sea; lor, had
it not been so, fhcould not have Keeti seen at
that distance. After a short consultation, du
ring which reference was had to the chart of
tlie Northumberland coast, It was decided that
this light must bo upon Dorton Point To the
north of Dorton, as the captain knew from per
sonal experience, as well asfrom the chart, there
was a snug harbor, of easy entrance. These,
things' were settled. •
.As soon as it had boefi determined where the
light was, Captain Lester made all possible
haste to determine his course of action. Had
tlie tiling been practicable, he would have laid,
his ship to; but that could" not be done. No
one even gave it a serious thought. So it was
dtrtcrmincd that tho ship should stand on, at
least till something further was discovered.
At half-past twelve the gale had moderated
considerably. The light was now to bo seen
vefy plainly whenever tho ship rose, and the
captain and his officers felt sure that they were
right in their calculations.
•‘At all events,” said the former, *’we have no
choice but to stand on, at least.—”
He wps interrupted by a cry from the bows
that mado every soul start with horror:
“Breakkks! Breaxtrs!”
Captain Lester leaped forward, and in a very
few moments he was satisfied that the warning
had not been a false one; for he could not only
hear the awful roar of the breaking seas, but lie
fancied that he could sec the gleaming of the
white foam as it flew high in fhe air. Asquidk-
|y as possible tbo topsail was taken off) and the
onchors cut loose. The ponderous grapplings
plunged into th» hissing sea, and theiron cables
were spun through the hawse-holes like light
ning. Snap went.the starboard chain; and in
a moment mqrc a shock was felt as the larboard
anchor found bottom; bat it could not hold.
The cablo parted as though it hqd been* hemp
en string, and on swept the devoted ship.
“In heaven’s name "’ grasped Gnflin, “what
does this mean f Seel The light w still bur
ning as brightly ss erer-at- least a league a-
wav-and yet here are roeks directly under our
bows! What can it mean r
Maurice Lester did not answer; but an old
weather-beaten sailor, who stood at tho wheel,
and who had looked a thousand dangers in the
face, answered for him:.
“It’s a Wrkckek’s Bracojs! I’ve seen such
ings'afore, Thcro aiot no use »n linn tlie

Jack to his death tiiat the coast-sharks might

But it was too late for mortal help. I ho ship
had met her doom. She went upon the rocks
With-a crash that sounded high above the roar

ij-act among the rocks, where many
the wreck bad been lodged, and where he found
the bodies of three of his men. He hastened
the spot where they lay—two of them, being
clasped in each other’s aims—but he found no
signs of life.
With a sad, hcaTy heart, Lester pasted on,
and pn-.-ently he found two more dead ones, and
one of them was David Griffin, his chief mate.
Ha kneeled down by the officer’s side, and rais
ed the head, but it was cold and lifeless and the
skull was broken! Gently he laid it back upon
the sand, and tin i. moved on again. Ar 1 he
saw more dead men also!- Could it be possible
that he bad been the only one left alive!
Ha!—wait—what is this* It moves—it has
life!
Captain Lester hurried forward, as fast «s his
feeble strength would permit, and found two
men lying by the side^of* heavy spar. One of
them was dead; but the other gazed up into his
commander's face, and stretched forth his hands
as though he would ask for mercy. His name
was Dick Mangle, and he had been one ol the
best seamen on board the ship.
“Poor Dick 1" said Lester, kneeling by hissidc
and lifting his head. “Are you badly hurt!"
“They've done it for us!” the sailor answer
ed, in a weakening voice. “They've, killed Tom.
Ainthedeadf
Tt was tho body of stout Tom Bricket that
lay dose by, and when the captain had mado
liiioBulf Sitrn that them waa nre particle of lift*
in it, he reported the same to Dick.
“But,” lie added, -what do you mean* AVhp
hos done yon hanu !•” , ' •
“Haven’t you seen ’em?’ the man- askcd|
struggling for breath.
■“Seenwhom* Whatdoyoumeanf demand
ed Lester,
■ Dick started up to liis elbow, and gazed
around; but .lie seemed to find nothing-for
which’he-was looking, and he sank back-again.
Had he not tnadc this effort "he might have spo
ken further, but the act of rising had exhausted
him, and the last grain of strength was leaving
him. -
“Wliat' do you mean J” cried Lester, as he
saw that the poor fellow was sinking. “Has
ivTiody harmed you!".
Dick managed to raise his iiand to liis head—
to a point above the left car—and, ns he did so,
he' whispered—
.“Look out—they asked for the capt’n. That's
where they struck."- He tried to speak further,
but his voice failed him- HB jB
AVliat could this mean ? Maurice Lester start
ed tp bis feet and gated around. Who bad
killed his men? ,
The captain vras disturbed in 'his meditation
by tho sound "of voices not, for off and Upon
turning ho beheld four men coming up from
the water. Ho who came in advanoe was a tall,
muscular iqan; with a -gaunt, heavy frame;
Somewhere about fifty or fifty-five vears of age;
and habited in a garb of blue.clolL, cut into a
fr$ek or shirt, which' was secured at the waist
by a broad pistol-belt
Maurice Lester was startled when he beheld
the stalwart leader and his three ruffianly com
panions; and, considering all the circumstances,
it is no wonder that he was startled. However,
ho bad not mnoh opportunity for reflection, for;
by thfe time he had fairlyinade out' the party,
they were upon him. • 7
Hallo,’’ the leader cried, as ho saw ourlicro,
‘here we have another.". And, as lie came up,
he added: “And T guess wo’vc found a live-ope,
too,—one that knows’something. Say—who
are yei M ' ' I
This last sentence was addressed to Maurice,
who quickly answered: . . ' :
“My tame is Lester. And now, to be fair,
whit is your name!” . '
“Well—I guess you’ve heard it before. Men
call me Ryan Wolfgang.”
“WonrcAXo!” repeated Lester, with a start
"“Yes. Tiiat is my" name," ' - '„V
P Then Wolfgang was not a myth after all-
Th»f mysterious mcitif, nliuar iwiuc — ■' ■ »
source of terror to honest sailors, was a being of
flesh and blood, like other men. Maurice gazed
upon him with wonder; and, as he gazed; lit*
felt tiiat he looked upon a fiend Incarnate. *Hc
had ofteh lizard of the pirato-wrcckcr, and so
dark" and mystic had been tlie tales which the
North-Sea sailors had told, that he had been
inclined to believe that tlie whole theme was a
fabrication. Now, however, he had no more
doubt, for tho man before him looked as dark
and bloody as were any of the picture! he had
heard drawn of him upon the forecastle.
But. our hero was not allowed much time for
reflection. Wolfgang plied him with questions;
to all of which Lester gave straightforward an
swers; well-knowing tiiat evasion would serve
no practical purpose, and hoping by his frank
ness to propitiate the merciless fiend in whose
unrestrained power he knew liimsclf to be.
M When the wrecker chief had elicited all the
information he could, and learned with what a
rich cargo the vessel was freighted, and thatsho
had <40,000 in specie on board, he smiled grirn-
• and remarked to one of his confederates that
_jo would, perhaps, be a richer prize even than
tile White Fawn had been a fow years before.
The roentioanf tho name of the ill-fated ahip in
which Carrie Thornton and her father had been
lost, gave Maurice Lester such a shock that he
nearly fell "to the earth. He grew deadly pale,
and his frame quivered convulsively.

WOLTGASO. - i'.
Maurice Lester was near the starboard gang
way when the ship struck, having started alt
to look to the helm. The shock threw him up
on his back, and bo tried to get up; but ere lie
could regain his feet the flood of road waters
came surging over the baric. _and he ™ thrown
came surging over inc oars, aim ou . passed from the mouth

flood came—that it caught buninita matugni^p T
—that it hurled him ar. the gale hurls a feather
—that liis head was 1 urt—that bw body was
tossed and bruised—and then the lamp of his
consciousness went out When lie came to him-
beamingabovo - t ,-
to move, any further than simply to assure him
self that lie was really alive and sensible; but
sought to recall tho events of the past, wluch hc
triS to gaze about him. He found himself up
on a bed of sand between two immense rocks.
He had been landed there in that deep nook,
md the tide had gone out and left him. In a
little while he rose to his feet, and managed to
crawl urn by the aid of a stranded spar, over a
t of one of the rocks,

him along, boys, where we can doctor him.”
The sinister glance which accompanied thra
st remark, and the peculiar emphasis laid upon
„e word “doctor," struck a chill to our hero’s
heart. But he could not give liis own. safety
much thought, while he was partly forced and
partly carried along after Wollgang, who strode
rapidly on for nearly half an hour. He could
think only of tho White Fawn that had been
wrecked on tiiat coast, and of his beloved Car
rie who had, perhaps, in company with those
same men, trod the same path he was now troad-
in- AVliat had been her fete ! nad shobccn
murdered by these wretches, or reserved for
some more deplorable doom ? These thoughts
filled him with unutterable agony.
Wolfgang had now drawn near tho waters
edge; and soon coming to themouth of a cave
he entered it, followed by the thjee ruffians who
had charge of our hero. The-bottom of the
cave sloped upward from its entrance for some
distance, and then bacanic almost level The
captive (for such Maurice Lester now felt him
self to be) frequently hit his feet against what
be thought, with a chill - of horror, were human
bones strewn around tbo cavern, but be could
-not clearly make them out in the dirt light He
also noticed that tho bottom pf the cavern was
verv wet as though it had recently been cover
ed with water. The wrecker chieftain stopped,
at last near what seemed the end of tho cave;
and making a sign to his followers they clapped
manacles on the wrists and ankles of Maurice
before he had time to. note their intention.
“Now, Captain Lester,” said Wolfgang, “yon
must remain in this place for a short season.
You are perfectly safe hero.—Silence! Say not
a word! If you attempt to leave this spo»,you
«-iii slain the moment you act your footoot-
will be slain the moment you aet your
side the cave." * ' J V ' , „ >
Tbu» speaking, tho chieftain and his followers
silently but rapidly withdrew, leavingilanrice
nearly stupified with abtonishment As they
nassed from tlie mouth of the cave, their, feet
The tide was
last coming m. ™ , , »-
After a short time, the captive looked about
him with eyes somewhat accustomed to the dim
li—lit, and became satisfied that what he had
supposed to bo human bone* were really such.
There were many-of them. And moving among
them were huge rats, seeking for prey. The
top of the cavern, income places, wasbula few
feet above his head, and in one place, he dis
covered a small aperture, through which a faint
lickt struggled, and on going underneath it, ho
though the smelt the odor of vegetation and

— rinro, toward# the mouth of the cave, Cap
tain Lcstar obovred with alarm, "that the water

it should fill the cavern ! Ah! now ho could
account for the presence there of those human
j c; • They were t’ic sad memorials of othf r
hapless prisoners wlio had been left in that cave
perish by drowning!
Slowly but surely the waters crept along,
■n vermin lied before them to the elevated spot
i.-h Maurice stood. Slowly following; the
'nwviun"’ water at length reached his feet.
At th« end of tin. cave, within a few feet of
the wall, and underneath the aperture before
spoken of, was a large piece of reck, some four
feet high, that might have fallen from above.
To this Maurice hastened as quickly as his man
acles would permit. After some exertion lie
succeeded in climbing to tlie top of it, and stood
erect, his head within a few inches of the root
of the caverti. But he was not allowed to oc
cupy this retreat alone. A3 the water began to
circle around its base, the rats also sought re-
fugeon it in great numbers, and in vain did
Maurice try to dislodge them with his manacled
feet
• Soon (as it seemed to the captive) the water
came rippling over tlie top of the rock.- He
felt its moisture upon .his feet And still it rose
—slowly but relentlessly it rose higher—high-
id as it rose, the rats climbed up bis limbs
for safety. It was in vain that ho brushed them
off with"his fettered hands. They instantly re
turned. They clambered up bis back—to his
shoulders—over the back of his neck—to tho
crown of his bead; tbeir clammy bodies stri
king a chill to liis very heart
And still higher the waters rose, and more
thickly the foul verraiu clustered upon tho de
voted captive’s shoulders and head,as their only
laces of safety. Driven frantic at last by the
iorrors of liis’ situation, Jioivas ahout to plunge
into the surging tide and seek a watery grave,

The Houston- (Texas) Teitgraph thus des
cribes the late Senatorial Section in the Legis
lature of that State:
’ The ifenatoriaf election fame off to-day, mid
I,. T. WigCtll, a private citizeU:.of Harrison
county, was the lucky niah. He resigned his 1
seat ui the State Senate before^ the balloting
coinmcnbed. He was electcp on the tliirel bal
lot, by a majority vote.' The following are tiift
iiarliaularp ofUu; election. ..- t.-- ^ ,
FirsrBatlol-:WigfeU, Cft votes ; *U others,
02 votes. *
Second BaUnL—WigQiff 5tt votes; all others,
G3 votes.
After .the second ballot, resort was made to
pslative tactics to.ilclay the election, and much
the day was spent in motions to aifjourh,-:.p-
>caling/rom tho decisions of the Speaker,-etc.,
nit finally tho third ballot was had, and W.ig-
fidl received 60 votes, and all "others 5S, where-,
L..T. Wig fall was declared the L*. S. Sen
ator for the unexpired toms' of. tho late Gen.
Henderson;. -
After the election, Col. Wigfell made a very,
conservative speech. He annooncwl life-oppo
sition to tbe re-opening of tho'slave trade, and
against a slave- code for. the territories. * He
would vote against .both. JJe would support
James Buchanan's administration as" long as Mr."
Buchanan stood on the .Democratic platform.
His speech- did not seem iimeh like -WigCdfs
speeches generally, and inn nbf entirely satis
factory to. many of his ardent admirers:
