GRAY. ' Tli« sedticr ami Avenger. AN INTKUESTINB TALH. The sterile coasts of Scotland possesses few j situations, which surpass in point of dreariness 1 the sight of Dunscanshy Castle. This massy pile ot architecture, situated in a barren plain, upon the extreme north-eastern point of the kingdom, exposed to the bleak blasts of the J\ Orth tSea in front and the heavy drifts of snow from the mountains in the rear, oilers but few induce ments as a habitation of mankind. Nor does the castle relieve the dreariness of the hearth that surrounds it. A mass of frowning towe s and battlements, half dilapidated, and overgrown with moss and ivy, and on which a century has show ed its duskiness and decay, sung to by naught save the howling wind, the shrieking mew. or the moan ol the North Sea as it dashes against the rocky shore, is a sight illy calculated to cheer or enliven the feelings of a spectator. The last rays of the setting sun wore gilding the dark stone tower, and lighting its gloomy halls and galleries through the fretted casements, when i person attired in the finest garb ol a hun ter, and followed by a brace of hounds, issued from the castle gate, and bent his course listlessly towards the shore. There was the void of an un occupied mind in the expression of his handsome countenance which was slightly tinged with the effects ofdissipation. and seating upon a rock, he directed his attention to the graceful sweep of the sea-bird, for want of a more interesting subject. Presently anothei figure, whoso apparel Ivesookc him a fisherman, advanced, and toweniag the hun ter to apprize him of his presence, he exclaimed, "Ellen ix dead.” —The voice was stern and trem ulous, and the blue eye of the young fisherman lightened his melancholy features with a deep and troubled emotion; hut il passed away and he stood caln> and collected, awaiting his companion's reply. The hunter started and grow slightly pale, as his eye fell upon the fisherman, hut quickly re ■overed his equanimity, “Can I in any manner dlay your grief ? Masses shall be said lor her repose and here, Paul, is gold ,to discharge the ‘"uneral riles; take it, man. and H it is not sulli •ietit. you shall have more.” “No. Sir James,” returned the fisherman, with a repulsive wave of his hand, and a smile ol hit nrucss upon his countenance, we have enough ■om the hard-earned saving of our daily toil, to leposit the victim of your seduction in the bosom of our mother earth.” • Paul, had Ellen lived. 1 should have yet re deemed her honor ” said the nobleman > isiblv af fected by the deep and impassioned tones oi the fisherman, which seemed to issue from his inmost soul; “I have frequently meditated leparation. and resolved upon; il is truth, Paul, the honest truth.” “ The descendants of Dukes and Earls, the heir to a princely name and fortune, connect him self with the daughter of a menial!” said Paul sternly eyeing his companion; “Sir James, it is useless to add the epithet ol liar, to that of villain.” “Paul, these are. hard terms for thy lord, liege, and master,” exclaimed the nobleman, visibly re link'd; ‘but your feelings arc moused, and 1 for give them as the workings of a heated and misled imagination.” “ Sir James.” relumed the fisherman, “1 have had enough to drive me mad. stark, staring mad but. thank God, that I have yet retained my rea son.” “ I acknowledge that I have not acted honora bly towards your sisler,” resumed Sir James, “but Paul. I am willing to make every reparation to you and your old father.” “ Reparation!” exclaimed the fisherman, while his eyes glowed with indignation—• whal repar ation can restore my sister’s honor—you have murdered her—allied her name with a foul and blasted reputation—scut her before her God dis robed of her virgin purity—with the glow of shame upon her cheek—and dragged the grey hairs of her old heart-broken father to the verge of the grave—slibbed my peace of mind forever in this world —and now you talk of reparation f O, fiend ! fiend ! I wonder that the lightning of heaven does not blast you In ashes!” “ Paul! Paul !” said the nobleman, while his lip quivered with emotion, “this is 100 much lo lx; eimured; it is indeed. Paul, recollect your station and mine; think on that, Paul.” “ Fool!” shouted the fisherman, vehemently, “do you think the fortune and title entailed upon you by your ancestors, licence you to defile the virtue of those who. though despised by the an J toeratic, exceed you in generosity, have souls, and will set as high in heaven. Draw,sir; draw —you must light; the spirit of a murdered sister cries —Revenge I” “ Paul 1 am master of the weapon, and could sport thy life at pleasure,” said the nobleman, “go home and we will talk the matter over wlie.n you have recovered yourself-possession, recollect, Paul, 1 urn powerful and can avenge, but I will forgive thee this.” "Sir James,” resumed the fisherman, coolly, “I am nol lo be trifled with by a cold hearted and unprincipled villain, draw, and defend yourself or by God I’ll run you through.” “ I hen your blood be on your own bead,” shouted the nobleman, uiishealhin his rapier. Until planted their feel firmly upon the hard earth, measured and crossed their shining rapiers, they were perfectly cool and collected and each parried and thrust with the nicest precision . For a long time, during which but light scratches were inflicted by either party, a victory remained undecided; but then as Paul attempted a lunge, his sword flew high from his grasp; Sir James had disarmed him, the fisherman offered his heart to the victor’s weapon, hot the nobleman turned proudly on his heel, exelairning, “young man. I give you your life, and forgive you your insults.” ft was late in the night when the fisherman re turned to his wretched abode after his discomfi ture, he had sought the wildest quarter of the shore, add there seating himself upon the rocks, he listened to the angry roar of the wave, as il foamed against the beach, and the heaving of his bosom was quieted, his lips quivered no longer, for there was something in the wild and fearful moan of the troubled deep, that allayed the storm in his bosom; ideas dawned upon him there that seemed to mark his prospective vista of his exis tence. Whatever his thoughts wore that night they seemed to have affected a complete revolu tion in the v'lrng fisherman’s mind, for he arose calm and undisturbed, and with a deep resolve upon his countenance that seer ted to throw a manly nobleness over his soul he entered the gloomy and sorrow ful abode of the poverty-strick en and heart-broken father. “ Paul Paul,” exclaimed the aged parent who had been informed of his son’s encounter with the nobleman, “has nol misery enough this day fallen upon our house, hut that you should add more to the insupportable burthen by insuring him whose generosity affords us a shelter from the storm. “ And whose villainy has brought disgrace up on nur name !” exclaimed the son. On father, il is iinbei ility that prompts you to Speak t ms of your add's nmoVria. (a.n ',m . sit hr. n.d chide me tor sec).ring revenge !” i “ Boy,” interrupted the parent sternly, “ieavo revenge to heaven; l*iii Janies is a peer of the I'i'aliii, and must not lie insulted hy a serl like Ihoo; lie has wronged me deeply, I allow; hut it | is not tor my hands to avenge that wrong.'’ " man, from the bottom of my soul I pity your infatuation, ’ said the son, “Peer ol the realm ! And does that empty title, whieh must pass away like other earthly things, privilege its wearer to seatter death, desolation and misery up on the threshold of the unfortunate 1 By hea vens ! did he sit on the throne, surrounded hy all the ensigns and pump of immaculate royalty, I would act the same. {Sacrifice my lile, my hope, my all, for one single moment of revenge.” “ Silence ! impious hoy,” thundered the grey haired parent, for if you cannot hush your trea son, out of niy house and speak it to the air.” “ He it so, father.” said the young man. rising and moving towards the door; “1 would fain see my sister laid in the earth, hut I will forego the sight at thy command—may God grunt thee health and happiness—farewell.” And theynung (tslierman hurried away, and was in a few minutes lost in the darkness of the night.” " I’anl. shouted the old man, for there was love in his hosom for the hoy, ‘Paul, mv sou, my dear and obedient son—conic hack, 1 did not mean to hurt thy feelings, aud if I did can you not forgive mi old hearl-hrokeu father, whose head is turned with misfortune 1 Paul, come hack, or I will go mad !”—The old man paused, I and the moan ot the restless North Sea was the sole response to his speech, “Paul,” shouted ho | agaio.. hut the same human silence pervaded as j before, and the miserable old man sunk hack ex hausted, and almost inanimate. I here is an interval of many years before we again introduce the young fisherman to our rea ders; it is not necessary that lie should he traced through all the depressive and exalted circum stances. which attended his indefatigable strug gles for distinction. A country had thrown oil'the yoke of Great Britain thither he hastened, animated hy the love of liberty and hatred of oppression, llcran ged himself in the ranks of the intrepid and har dy colonists; fought and hied with them, and in a few years experienced a succession of honors, which nothing hut heroic valor, patriotic zeal and love of a mighty and generous nation could have awarded. One morning u lofty vessel, hearing the flag of the United (States anchored oll'Dunseansby Head. An old man stood on the beach, watching with interest the proud ban pie that floated so graceful ly and so gallant upon the water. “It is a vessel of the mighty people that repelled the soldiers of our king,” muttered the old man, “they are a great nation. 'They say there’s tin distinction there between the poor man and the rich, and a fisher man is as much respected and protected, as a master of a thousand pounds.” Hire his musings were hushed, a boat was seen pulling from the ship, aud heading towards the shore. With awe ami respect the old man gazed upon the strange people, as they stepped upon the beach—one of them, who appeared hy his dress to he a superior officer, stood for » moment confron ting the old man. who shrunk from tin 1 deep gaze of his blue eyes. “Do you not remember the child of your own flesh a.id blood I” sairl the of ficer. “Father, do you forget your truant Paul?’ The old man was stupified, his eye roomed over the figure of the handsome officer, anil liter his recollection was thrown back upon his way I. ward hoy. > For a moment be doubled his senses, and pass ed his hand across his brow, with a hewildem ! air. hut gradually the identification beaming upor his understanding, and clasping the officer to his breast, exclaimed, “Welcome, my son, welennu to your father’s heart.” Ho could speak no more —words could convey no idea of his feelings and he abjured them; once he wept like a child, and then he laughed immoderately, for there was vanity and delight at (he old man’s heart. “Place him on hoard,” said the officer to one of his comrades; ami in n few moments the old man paused the deck of a ship commanded hy his own brave and long lost son. The officer, accompanied hy a file of marines then proceeded towards the castle. On enquiring for Sir James, he was shown into the oratory; the nobleman rose at his entrance, and. bowing cour teously, desired his visiter to he sealed. “ Yon do not recognize me. Sir James.” said the officer; “time hath effaced my recollection from your memory. “II ever 1 had the pleasure of your acquain tance, it has returned,” said the nobleman,gazing earnestly at the features of the officer. “ Look again, SirJa es. examine well, and you may perceive in the hard countenance of him who now confronts you, lincarncntsof the injured Paul .” “Ha ! I recognize you,” said the nobleman in a husky voice; while his check assumed an ashy paleness, and his hand grew tremulous as a leafofuutnmn; twice he essayed to speak again, but as often his voice failed him, but at length, with a desperate cflint he broke forth—“ Yes, Patti. I recollect you well, hut you have been 1 j fortunate in your absence.” As the nobleman ■ concluded he attempted a complacent smile; hot | it was abortive, and died ghastly upon his thin | and colored lip. For a lime the officer remained silently gazing • at his companion, who seemed to shrink from the i penetrating eye that pierced the inmost depth ol 1 his soul; at length breaking the silence, with 8 , low intonation, that his voice always wore whet 1 excited, he said, “And I bless it tha. it lias giver i me the power of revenging her who sleeps tin 1 victim of your treachery. Sir James we ittusi fight.” “Fight!” echoed the nobleman solemnly; “it it not better. Paul, that the past should he forgot gotten 1 It can never he recalled and the deal! j of either of us would not assist the case a parti , cle; marry years have fallen over that transaction i and it sleeps almost forgotten; then why awaket i the recollection of a circumstance, which will on , ly serve to call forth painful feelings without at I attendant to alleviate them.” t j “(Sir James,” answered the officer,and hisvoicr I I seemed to heave from his inmost chest; “1 havr - experienced many vicissitudes of fortune since J I | fled this shore, and encountered enough of the - j storms and calms of life to office the remembrance ■ j of many occurrences, hut that one is deeply, toe i j deeply for my equanimity, engrafted here,” as In i { spoke, he placed his hand emphatically on hir i j h east, and there was a moment of painful silence | He again resumed, “All my struggles for distinc j lion have been instigated partially that we might > I meet on an equality. When we were both youn i ! ger, we crossed weapons ; there was a discrepatt -1 ey then in our stations; you were a peer of the I I realm, heir to a princely name, and I. a poor des ; 1 pised fisherman; hut time has effected a change i [ in that regard; you still retain your title and dis tinction and I have the honor to command in the ■ ! navy of the Thirteen Slates, comprising the He | public of America—all objections are n moved and f ; if you are a man you cannot refuse the satisfac tion I require."

" My followers guard the entmnee,” answered the officer calmly, .sir James suffered his iirm to drop and for a moment stood regarding Paul with grave stupefaction, but quickly recovering himself, he rushed to the table, and grasped his rapier fiercely exclaimed, * ’I hen by my soul you l shall have what you so earnestly seek.” The marines stationed in the gallery, heard the clash of steel, with h in a few moments was suc ceeded by a heavy fall. In another moment their officer opened the door and stood before them. ; There was a haggard wildness in his eye, an np i parent abstraction in Ida rountenanee. his cheek was ns pale as marble, and bin hand which grasp i ed his naked sword, trembled violently. “Give way there ye slaves!” shouted he to the domes -1 lies who began to crowd the entrance; and then, i turning to his followers, ffc exclaimed : ■ “To the bench my mem—on to theboat and i lei ns quit this land id .'leaedory andoppression!” , Hy the time the officer regained his ship, he * was mini, and all traces of recent passion had. ) fled his countenance, his orders were delivered * with accustomed coolness, and nothing remained of the fierce storms which had but u little while previous raged in his bosom. r The anchor was drawn up—the white canvass fell from the yards—the sheets were hauled firm -1 ly home, and the steady ship swung on her. course, and in a lew moments was moving ma - jestically forward,dashing aside the angry' waves that tossed and foamed on her watry path, and I when the sun that evening illumed the North Sea with his setting beams, he beheld the lofty ship, far on her way to that land where all men are horn equal, and where the arm of justice is ever i extended lo protect the persecuted and unfortu . nale irom the persecution of despotism and lyran -1 ny. } j- _ John .Smith’s last Indiscretion.—Wo find the following connubial record in the Otse ■ go Republican.
