An extra pull wim taken on tlie brace*, the yards prorated hard agatnat the ataya, and right well did the old Marathon lie over from the heavy breeze that a welled our canvas to its greatest tension. I hove the log again. “ How much now?" say* the skipjaT, “Twelve and a luilf, sir." "1 guess that is id amt all we can get out of her, with this wind ; that extra pull gave her the other half knot.” In ten days after tuissing Kerguelen’s I .and, the high arid irregular coast of Australia was raised from the masthead by our first mate, tidings Mr. Bolter, who shouted the glad to those on deck. No sooner had the sound of his voice diet! away than a baker's dozen were running up the ratlines, eager to obtain even a distant view of the great island. A number of us old salta, who had mi iled for Australia liefore, contented ourselves Viy snuffing the air like so many jiorpoisca. Alter we hurt paswal tietween Tasmania and the South Sea continent, we caught a light breeze on otir quarter and headed for Sydney. right Bower No in sooner the river had juat wo dropped off the our town than our vessel was boarded by the surgeon of tl»e jsirf, who examined our |ia|iers, good and, being satisfied that we were in health, our ship was al¬ lowed to haul up nearer the city. The old man went ashore to make his report to the Consul, but when he returned his face wore n troubled lisik. He called Mr. Bolter ami myself into the cabin, w here, to our surprise and chagrin, lie stated that the Consul informed bun that, when the cargo was discharged, he should have to press the ship into ser¬ vice for the Government to carry a lot of convicts to Van 1 hematite Land. The vessel that brought them was disabled, and could proceed no further. The skipper remonstrated against the seizure, but it was of no avail. The Consul said he was sorry, but it could not be avoided- -our vessel taring the only on# in i sirt that would answer the purpose, ma the convicts must be got off without delay. This news found its way among the crew, and several of them ran away and took to the bush, not oaring to rnjk tbeinaelve* at sea with a lot of desperate men frwsh from the prisons of England, The skimier quieted tlie feArs of the p st by telling them arise, that tin- no danger vic.ts w.mld could be jxWhly heavily as fun ironed and placed between decks w ith a guard over them. <>u th« fotliiwirg morning, l>ctw(M>n divks wore jirapared for the reception of ottr live freight. A strong double bulk¬ head was put uji just forward of the cab¬ in, and one just aft of the chain-lookers, and extra bars ntnl jRuUocks wore pro¬ cured for the hatehra. When 1 surveyed the work of the Gov • romtiiit varjK'iittu's aiy mind felt sonie. what easier. Everything ls ing m readiness, our guests were marched down tietweeu files ot soldiers. Each convict was hand cuffed, and on U.e right ankle of every man an iron ring was fastened, to which Were attachisl heavy Chains.

Ho the old man gave me leave to go 1* lew ami satisfy myself. I could find nothing, but at the same time was far from being satisfied. I asked why was Barker, of all others, down below ? We told the crew of our suspicions, and or dered them to keep a lookout on Bar kers movements. As the night eame on, the guard was relieved and cautioned by the sergeant to be on the alert. It seemed kind of queer to me that the convicts remained so their quiet, for beyond scarcely a low audible, conversation but voices were [ thought afterward that probably they in temledto get a g«s«l night's rest, and j‘referred to keep still. I lay awake some time after turning in ; but my eyes finally grew heavy, and 1 was in the land of dreams—away off in Boston. My mother eame up to ray room (1 was still in mv dreams) to tuck in the bed-clothes, t felt her gentle tench on the blankets; but why did she place her hand over my mouth'? I opened my eyes to see the reason. The glittering blade of a slieath knife was held before them. I knew the rea¬ son then pretty quick, I assure you, for Barker held it. “Now, Steeraway,” says he, "you just keep quiet, and von won't bo hurt. Oi>en your mouth and you won’t know what hurt you.” I knew that any movement on my part would be my death warrant. *' Will you keep quii't if 1 take my hand from your mouth?” I nodded my head in the affirmative, ami his hand was removed. “Now, Steeraway,” tie says he, “ f am going in to you ami put a little stepper your month.

The CfWmet then li ft me and disappeared. 1 had not been alone more than ten min lib's, when 1 heard a voice near the berth head say, “ All right." In a moment more, a light draught of air entered my stateroom, and it smelt odor, strongly of peut-up air—a sort of convict The so bulkhead to speak. had been removed and the eahfn was soon crowded with prison¬ ers.

About dusk the wind made its appearance, and I got ready to stand in. “Steeraway,” said Gosshawk, “ I guess you will have to make a voyage in the dark ; but it can’t be helped.” The boat was lowered ; two kegs of water, four junks a bag of hard-tack, and three or o salt horse were tossed in, and I was told to follow suit. As I was east adrift, the villains shouted after me: done "Good-by, good Steeraway, and you have us a turn we won’t for- 11 ! ’ 1 made no reply, but sat tn the stern of the boat gazing after the recediug vessel.
