“Willie JHardy was gone Bolilock kept
bis telescope upon tbe distant bark,
which sometimes sprang her spars into
the ic-nses, and once or twice a strip of
greenish lmli. The sunshine brightened
her flag. It "was red, but Boldock coaid
uot make oat whether it was a distress
signal. Now arrived Mr. Matthews,
who had kept watch from 4 till 8, and,
having breakfasted, had tamed iu for a
snooze.
“Keep in-the companion way,” said
the commander, stand-iig ontside, “aud
take this telescope aud look at yondor
vessel aud tell me what you t*.iuk of
her.”
Mr. Matthews was scarcely wide
awake. He had tumbleiloutof his bunk
with a seamau’s burry. Alter a great
deal of maneuvering with the uuwieldy
telescope ho caught the object. A grin
of amazemeut that worked the flesh
about his lips iuto a liuuchback’s wrin
kles widened his month. He rooked
again, and then in tones firm with con
viction ho said to the commander,
“That bark down there, sir, is tie
Queen. ”
“Blow my sweet -wind!” murmured
tho commander, with a look of stupefac
tion. “It is always tl:o wrong weather
at sea. Why doesn't some air come
along?”
“Most undoubtedly the Queeu,” re
peated Mr. Matthews, who continued
to seesaw with the long brass tubes as
they rested on the edge of the cover,
himself standing inside.
“Forward, there!” bawled the com
mander.
“Sir,” answered a voice.
“Send the Queen’s men-aft.”
,“Ayc, aye, s.r. ”
The five of tlieni presently arrived,
staggering aud lurching like drunken
seamen on the slope of the deck as they
walked.
“Here,” said Boldock to the first of
them, who happened to be Tom, “get
you inside that hatch, my man, aud
look through that telescope and tell me
what ship that is.”
Tho instant Tom caught her he howl
ed out, with his eyes still at the glass,
“BJowed if she ain’t tbe Queem ” All
allowance was to be made for great ex
citement. If that ship was the Queen,
tho men’s clothes were on board of her,
their certificates of discharge, seven
pounds of tobacco belonging to them
were in their chests and a few pounds
in money.
“Out you come,” said the command
er. “Next mau. ”
Ouo after another the five stepped in
to the hatch, aud after dodging aud
ducking aud mowing and sweeping
with the immense telescope declared
that tho bar£ yonder was the Queen.
They then went forward and looked at
her iu a little crowd upon the forecas
tle.
The heavens were clearing, the hori
zon opening, the atmosphere brighten
ing, tho colors and lines of the bark
stealing out clearer aud sharper.
“If she’s not the Queen,” said Mr.
Matthews, “this brig’s not the Welles-
icy. ”
‘ ‘Are the scoundrels who stole her
aboard cf. her?” exclaimed the com
mander.
“She looks to me to have broken
adrift from her moorings,” said Mr.
Hardy.
“Moorings! Where would you moor
her?” said Boldock.
“Off Hailoran isiaud.”
“And why not?” cried the command
er, instantly seeing tho point. “There
has been a lot of dirty weather of lato. ”
“That fore topmast staysail looks as if
they’d been tending her at anchor,”
said Mr. Matthews.
“But if there are people aboard,” ex
claimed the commander, “why do they
let her He without a rag save that stay
sail?”
“They may be waiting for wind?”
said Mr. Hardy.
“Will they show fight, I wonder,
when we bear down?” asked the com
mander, and his nostrils enlarged while
he glanced at his one gun. “I rather
hope so. They’re all armed with re
volvers, you tell me, Mr. Matthews? I’ll
lead the boarders, Hardy.”
• “ You’llnot find me far off, sir,” said
Mr. Matthews. “Nearly all that I own
in the world,” he exclaimed, with a pa
thetic gesture at the bark, “is in yon
der vessel. I blush to own it. I blush
to think I should have been such a fool
as to lead for years the life of a dog for
no more than what you may pack iu a
sea cheat”
Mr. Hardy lightly groaned.
“Are you talking of the Queen?”
cried Miss Mansel’s voice at the foot of
the companion ladder.'
“Aye, that is right,” answered the
commander, pulling his great red face
into the companion.. :“We’ve fallen in
with your ship. We’re waiting for noth-,
ing but a little wind. For gracious sake,
mind, Miss MauscL We are roiling
frightfully. Hold on like grim death
till I get at you. ” “
He sunk down the steps, aud, clasp
ing the young lady firmly around ti:e
waist, half carried her to ihe top if tho
ladder, where they stood together, lie
bolstering and shoring her up most af
fectionately while she looked at the
hark, but not with the glass, for th. t'
was beyond her. The sea admits of sit
uations which tho land provides no
apologies for. Her robe still consisted
of her dressing gown, her hat of tbe
white cap of sailcloth.
The truth is the dressmaker forward
had proved a failure. “His fits would
give auy woman fits,” Boldock said,
bursting into a loud laugh wheu Miss
Mansel, attired like a windsail, arjrs
crooked out with tightness and without-
a waist, stepped from her cabin. “Ho
shall be sent to Paris. Tho French love
originality in out. The dressmaker of
the Wellesley will charm them.” So
the young lady was obliged to stick to
her dressing gown, though she coutriyed
some underclothing for herself cut cf
the seaman’s misfits. The mau was
greatly mortified by his failure and Was
much laughed at forward. He was un
usually profane for two days and was
heard to say, with several imprecations
in the old style, that “if ever he'.was.
caught cutting out for another woman,
might he be cut up himself. ”
The commander, bolstering the young
lady in the hatch, peeped around at her-
to observe tbe effect the bark produced.
Again he admired the brilliancy of hex
eyes. The exertion mid colored her
cheeks. She saw the white light of ihe
sail in a moment and cried, “Is that
the Queen?”
“None oiber. Miss Mansel,” said Mr.
Matthews.
She stared, astounded; then, looking
round into the commander’s face, said,
“What are you going to do?”
“I can do nothing till some wind
comes and this horrible swell goes
down,” answered Boldock.
••Win you have to nght to recaptnre
her?”
“I hope so. But I don’t fancy from
the figure she makes that her people are
iu a fighting state of mind.”
She asked a few more questions. The
commander then assisted her below aud
saw her in safety to her cabin.
Now followed a brain distracting
spell of suspense and expectation. When
the afternoon came, the swelling folds
of sea had sensibly sunk, and at about
4 o’clock a small bieeze blew from the
east. Boldock instantly made all sail,
aud, with an amidship helm and Equare
yards and his one piece of artillery
loaded with grape, steered ou a straight
course for tbe bark._
It might now be seen (hat the vessel’s
main royal yard was down, but the long
topgallant mast was standing. She con
tinued to lie exactly as she had lain all
day, under her ill hoisted wing of stay
sail, hut already the color at the gaff
end had shaken its folds ent to the wind.
Ly aid of the glass Mr. Hardy perceived
that the union jack was reversed. It
was the mute sea cry for help, in short,
and it was easily guessed there would
be no fighting.
Curiosity burned in the bosoms of all
hands. She was the bark Queen that
bad sailed from Sydney. Her five people
forward on the brig’s forecastle knew
her, swore lo her, and 20 good dramatic
reasons, each one a powerful imagina
tive yarn well calculated to make a
literary reputation, had been invented
by ihe sailors to account for her lying
wallowing there with the loss of her
fore topgallant mast aud flying jib boom.
At this hour it was no Jonger danger
ous to move about the brig’s deck, and
Miss Mansel was seated in a chair se
cured to the quarter deck capstan, and
Commander Boldock stood beside her,
with his long brass telescope under his
arm. The bark rolled slowly, with a
stately swing of her lofty spars. She
flung wet flashes from her gleaming
sides and submitted the model of a
beautiful clipper hull to the charmed
eyes of the seameu as she buoyantly
climbed aslant the now fast lessening
heave of sea.
Two figures slood ppon her poop
right aft. Boldoelc viewed them through
his glass.
“Seamen apparently, ” said he. “Two
only.”
“Her longboat’s goue,” said Mr.
Matthews. “She’s without a boat oi
any kind. ”
After a little the stern of the bark
slanted into sight. The swell hove it,
and there, under the counter, in long
plain white letters, were the words
“ Queen—J .oudon. ”
They stood together.
'“It’s ’Arry!” reared Topi on the
brig's forecastle. *
‘“It’s William!” shouted a second
seamau of the Queen.
The brig passed slowly under the
stern of tbe bark aud rounded to lee
ward, and while this maneuver was be
ing carried cut 1 y Mr. Hardy the fol
lowing conversatiou passed:
“Ho. the barkahov!” roaredjhe com-

“Hello, hello, sir!” answered Hurry,
with a quick, eager flourish of his baud,
springing c-u to the tuffruil lo talk, then
catching sight cf Miss Mansel and star ;
ing and’ staring with hands on his
knees as though he had been slain in
that postnre by lightning.
“Are any cf the gentry who stole
your ship aboard of yon still?” shouted
Commander Boldock.
“No, sir, thank God!” Andspiueman
on Use brig’s forecastle langhed.
“Are you two men alone?”
“Ail alone, sir,” shrieked Harry.
“How long have you been iu this
condition?”
“We was rolled off Hailoran isiand
four days ago, ” cried William in his
slow but powerful voice, “and we’ve
been a-washing about ever since look
ing out for ships. ”
“Mr. Matthews,” said the command
er, “you had better get your boat over
and take your five men and resume pos
session. Make sail aud report her condi
tion and keep within bailing distance
of me. ”
It touched' the spirit and memory of
old times in this jolly, red faced gen
tleman to talk thus. It was like con
voying. It was like taking possession of
a prize. His wide, crimson face beamed
with cordial enjoyment asMr.Matthews,
Eoberly touching his cap, answered,
“Aye, aye, sir. ”
The Queen’s boat was lowered with
out difficulty over the brig’s side. The
five seamen entered her. Mr. Matthews,
barehcuilid, shook bauds with Com
mander Boldock, looking as ho did so at
Miss Mansel. Tho young lady said,
“May I go on beard with Mr. Mat
thews?”
“I will, with your permission, when
this swell slackens, put you on board
myself,” answered the commander in
his lamenting way.
She bowed aud slightly colored. Prob
ably the trifling flush was c-xcited by
the expression ou Mr. Matthews’ face
as he turned and walked to the gang
way. He get into the boat without diffi
culty, aud, gaining the ship’s side,
sprang into the main chains and gained
the bark’s deck He ordered the men to
hook the boat on and hoist her at onco.
She was now their only boat anil incal
culably valuable, therefore. *
“Have they taken the gold?” he said
to William, who with Harry stood by
to receive him.
“Every ounce cf it, sir.”
“What have they done with it?”
“Took it ashore, sir.”
After a pause, during which emotion
worked briskly in the honest fellow, ho
said: “All lights my lads. Help the
others. I’ll hear your yarn presently. ”
And while the men went to work with
the boat he entered tho cuddy.
Everything was as it had been when
he was tnmed adrift. He opened a lock
er, with a trembling heart, aud beheld
his desk, and, lifting the lid, he drew
out a leather bag of money. Ho count
ed the contents. While he counted the
men above sang joyously at the boat’s
falls. He counted ten bank notes and a
number of English pounds. “They have
not touched a farthing, ” he said to him
self. He put away the purse, aud his
face was v;arm with delight. Hard
earned, frieud Matthews, as you know,
is the money that is got by going to sea.
His sextant was untouched. Every rag
and every stick of bis little property
had been spared. “I can’t say after this
they weren’t- gentlemen at root, after
all, ” he thought as he stepped forth.
Yet he could , not believe that he was
awake when he recollected how this
beautiful bark had been seized one mid
night by ten men, bnt not by any means
unexpectedly. No, he was bound to
think that, which consideration carried
him to old Benson’s cabin.
He found the cot gone, and some of
the tools for navigating the vessel were
missing. Otherwise the interior looked
much' as of old. He peered into the cab
ins which had been occupied by the
Storrs and the other passengers. Here
he found traces of industry. Portman
teaus had been opened. The contents of
a trunk belonging to Mr. Storr were
scattered upon the deck. The ten gen
tlemen seemed to have wanted clothes,
he thought, and probably a little ready
money. They were kind to leave him
his savings.
This inspection occupied but a few
minutes. Goiug on deck, he found the
boat at the davits aud ordered the well
to be sounded. There was water enongh
iu the hold to demand a short spell at
the pomps. When he had satisfied him
self on the ship’s condition, he mounted
the poop and hailed tbe brig, which lay
within easy earshot.
“The ship seems all right, sir.”
“Have they taken the gold?” shouted
Commander Boldock, getting into his
main rigging to talk, while the rolling
of the vessels kept the two gentlemen
jowiug to each other.
“The two men report so, sir.”
The commander tossed one hand and
looked ronnd at Miss Mansel. “Where
is it?”
“Ashore, sir.”
“Then we must lose no time, Mr.
Matthews. I will send four of my men
aboard of you. Make all plain sail up
on your ship, but not more thau will
enable me to keep company. ”
Mr. Matthews roared out, “Aye, aye,
sir. ”
The commander was addressed by
Miss Mausel. He presently cried,
“Have yon been into the cabins?”
“Yes, sir.”
“How is Miss Mansel’s?”
“I should say, by the looks of it, ex
actly as she left it, ” answered Mr. Mat
thews.
This stroke of news appeared to make
Commander Boldock entirely happy.
Miss Mansel waved gratefully to the
ship. Even as it was with Mr. Mat
thews so was it with her. Every far
thing’s worth of her property in this
world was in her cabin. She viewed
the bark with the pensive gaze which
Mr. Masters had so often admired:
Memory arose in her, and her counte
nance changed again and again as she
sought to give mold aud substance to
that black time when they had throt
tled her aud set her afloat. Great Godl
Did any woman ever undergo such an
experience? Sbe trembled while she re
membered and locked at the bark, ahd
then her eyes met Captain Boidock’s.
“It scarcely seems rational, ” said
she, smiling with sudden sweetness,
“that I should rejeite so over the recov
ery of my poor few effects—a hat, a
dress or two, a parasol. Ob, di ar. Cap
tain Ecjjdoek, in the face of the mighty
robbery of gold toot And yeti dare
say,” said she, wiili her pensive icok
coming on her again, dropping her jids
so that tfie commander was able once
more to admire the leugth of her eye
lashes, “tbe loss of my luggage would
be a greater blow to me than the loss cf
tbe gold to the owners of it. ”
Eoldcck courteously and cordially as
sented.
“ Wkcn'rio you think I' shall he able
to go on board?’ ’
“Tomorrow, I hope. ”
“Not before?!’ she cxclaimrd, with a
start aud a blush, looking round at t be
sun that was now hanging low nc-r’-
west, the swell rolling in bicoil under
him, and the sky filled with a thousand
scarlet clouds of effulgence.
“I hope you are not iu a very great
hurry to leave the brig. Miss Mansel?”!
said the commander.
“I should be shockingly ungrateful if
I’884” sbe Wiswefed, . _
i&Uiai
The commander said no more
seemed intent upon what was doing iu
the bark. Six men had gone across to
the Qneen in one of the brig’s motherly
quarter boats. Two had returned, and
tho boat was hoisted, anil Mr. Matthews
was now with a good working crew—11
men, iu a word—of whom ohe was the
brig’s boatswain, to serve him as a mate.
They made sail quickly, but the ship
wanted symmetry. She could no longer
glow in beauty to the evening sun. A
star was trembling in the east, albeit
the west was still red with light when
the two vessels began to move.
“I’ll hang a lantern at my gaff end,'’’
shouted the commander to Matthews,
“and yon will follow in my wake and
be cartful rot to run me down! Let a
bright lookout be kept and hang a rid
ing light somewhere forward where we
may easily see it.”
This being said, the commander, of
fering Miss Mausel his baud, conducted
her into the cabin to tea. The tea things
had been set by a sailor, who was goue.
The naval officer and the yonng lady
were alone. Miss Mansel removed her
canvas cap and sat down upon a locker
in front of a seagoing, battered teapot,
that had once been a very pretty, shin
ing thing, and poured cut two cups of
black tea, one of which she hauded to
the commander, who, as they had no
milk in the brig, used a little brandy in
stead The dark table, agleam with
wear, was furnished with marmalade,
biscuits and potted shrimps, of which
Miss Mansel aud the commander par-
tock.
“Our meeting with the bark is the
most extraordinary encounter in the his
tory of the world, ” said Boldock. “Bnt,
tfcongli she had ten times the value of
tho stolen gold safely stowed away in
he: now, I sboold still regret our hav-
inj fallen in with her.”
'But why?” inquired Miss ManEcl
archly, and her eyes, catching the hectic
of sunset lingering upon tbe skylight
and dyeing the flashes of the swinging
lamp, looked nnusuaily bright and vi
vacious.
“Is she not going to remove you from
this brig?” said the commander tender
ly, but with the teuderuess that breathes
in the lowing of a calf.
The young lady did not seem to hear.
‘ Miss Mansel—bnt rather let me call
yoi Margaret,” said Boldock, taking
hold of liis ccatwith both bauds as
from some half conscious desire to gird
himself tightly for a business that was
growing heroic, “I’m a plain sailor,
uot nscil to tontiug ship when the
wind’s fair. I think I can see a fair
wil d iu your eyes, Margaret, or 1 give
yor my word of honor as a gentleman
that’I should net be troubling you with
this speech. 1 am in love with you.”
‘ Oh, Captain Boldock!”
‘ I am in love with yon,” repeated
Boldock, rising and sliding along the
locker to her sido. “You are the first
woman who has ever engaged my affec
tions. I am not a rich man. but I can
support a wife ashore liy going afloat,
and I ask you to be my wife when, God
being willing, tbe two ships after this
extraordinary traverse, shall have
brought up in Sydney bay, where the
bark’s bound to return for repairs and
men. ”
T he young lady did not answer. She
slightly trembled when Boldock pnt his
fa!/ arm round her waist. Yet this pro
posal was not unexpected. For some
time sbe had known that he admired
her and she was perfectly sensible of
the abundant attentions he had paid
her He was a hearty, rough seaman,
bni an officer in the queen’s navy, and
a gentleman, and the spirit of kindness
ant’ good nature dwelt in his wide, red
faoi.
‘ You see, Margaret,” said he, “that
wheu you go on board tbe ship we
shall be separated. I must keep to this
command. Bad weather may blow us
asunder. Nothing impossible at sea.
Therefore, before I take yon ou boiird I
want you to say that you will be my
wife ou our return to Sydney. Will
you, my dear Margaret? it wauts hut
vejy little consideration—will you?”
