Th« Inrflfttin RntiflrKtloB C«rtlfle»4e. It tarna oat that we were mistaken In stating that Governor BaKan had signed tlm document that waa sent to the Secretary of State, certifying to the ratification of tiie fifteenth amendment by tho Legislature of Indiana. The Indianapolis cor* respondent of the Cincinnati Gazette, who is in a position to speak by authority, in a letter to that paper thus detaila what he declares to be the facts in the case: “The newspapers of the two parties are discussing the question among themselves as to whet her or not the attested copy ot the resolution ratifying the fifteenth amendment, when it was sent on to Washington last week, was signed by the Governor. As a matter of fact, it was not, and his name appears nowhere upon it. It was certified to by the Secretary of Htate, and the general belief seems to be that tuls is all that Is necessary. It was not presented to Governor Baker, and it is understood that le would not have signed It if it had been. Whether this was because he regarded it as unnecessary or on account of tho manner of its passage, I can not say.” The same correspondent In a dispatch from tiiis city published In the Gazette of yesterday, says: "Tho Secretary of State has received a letter acknowledging tho receipt, by the Secretary of State, at Washington, of the certified copy of the resolution accepting and ratifying the fifteenth amendment, and of Its being placed regularly on file
there.”
These developments put a new face upon the matter, and hence we withdraw all reflections that have appeared In the Hkntinei. against Governor Baker, based upon the assumption that he had signed the certificate, thus stultifying what was understood to bo his opinion in regard to the purported ratification ot the fifteenth amendment by a portion of tho Legislature, lessThan the quorum that has been recognised by all legislative bodies i hat have assembled within the Stat* for the past fifty-three years, and by the representatives of all parties, both within and without the Legislature, during that period. The Gazette correspondent says the document was not even presented to the (Jovernor for his signature, and that ho would not have signed it If it had been 'I’liis position is creditable to the Governor. lie could not haye consistently signed the certificate, holding the views In regard to the action of his political friends In tho Legislature that have been attributed to him. We now understand that the certificate had the signatures of tho President and Secretary of the Senate, and the Speaker and Clerk of tho House, with the certificate of the Secretary ofState. It appears that this certificate and we believe it is the only one of the kind that has been received in Washington, 1ms been placed regularly on file there as though it was a complete acceptance and ratification of the fifteenth amendment by a legislature of Indiana. We have yet confidence that the Governor would not have signed tho certificate of ratification “on account of the manner of its passage,” even if it had been presented to him, and the fact that it was not is satisfactory evidence that those who had the matter in charge were unwilling to trust the Governor on account of their lack of faith as to his action upon the question. If Indiana is placed upon the files in Washington as having ratified the fifteenth amendment, under such circumstances, it will show i!ic uesperauun or uio lei aeis of tiir> nodical party to carry a measure that they regard to bo necessary to perpetuate thoir party rule. Governor Baker is an ultra partisan and an intense Radical in his political sentiments, but we are yet unwillin" to believe that he would be a p::rty to a fraud, even if it would promote the interests of tho political organization with
which lie is Identified. '

CHAPTER I.
THE PRISONER OF MID O^EAN.
Late one summer afternoon, a dozen years ago, a solitary white man stood before an idolatrous temple on an Island la
the South Pacific.
He was ot middle age, tall, thin, and guant, with ragged features and sorrowful eyes, and with every sign of goodness and Intelligence. ‘ " . Beside him was a grim stone idol. In grotesque human form, more than twice as tall aa himself, whieh he had Just finished, as was indicated by the mallei gnd chisel in his bands. * . "It is done,” he muttered. "And theee heathen little suspect that I have cut my name and story into the base of this IdoL He ran his eye rapidly over the Inscription In question. It was as follows: "The 8th of M«y,1812, I.

Finished ^th is inscription this 7th day of July, For several minutes the prisoner contemplated these lines in silence, and then aroused himself, looking warily
around.
“Three times I have tried to escape in a canoe,” he mattered, "and every time I was caught, and visited with tortures. To be caught again in snch an attempt certrin death. Yet I will risk all

No? Yob are welcome to your choice of them all, air.” He advanced, and flung open the atate mom door. . Ally bent forward and looked In. Witb a quick thrust, Hiley pushed him Into tbe little room, and hurriedly locked the door. With an exultant smile Colonel Nichols said adien, and went ashore. The next minute the harried trampling of feet was blended with the songs of the ■toot seamen, as the brig moved slowly from the wbarf towards the sea. Ally’s first thought, on finding himself shut up in Captain Hiley’s state room, was that the two men were Joking—merely intending to scare him a little, and then let him out; but he soon discovered that the Quickstep—the brig was so named—had left her wharf, and was stsnding down the Elizabeth river towards the ocean. “The truth flashed upon him! “1 see it all!” be cried, leeping to bis

aelt in a wild mood.”
He hurried out of the cottage bearing his frail harden. Hiley followed hastily, and the two made their way to the spot where Colllna’ boat lay. It was bnt the work of a moment for Hiley to posh off
the little craft and overset it.
“There, they’ll think the girl got wild with grief and was drowned in an attempt to search for Ally again!” said tbe Colonel exultantly, tossing Amy’s white apron upon the beach. “That apron will fix the matter beyond a doubt! The wind la riaing, Hiley. You had better take
advantage of it!”
The two hurried to tbe waiting boat.
Hiley laid the unconscious Amy in tho bottom, and then seized the oars and
rowed rapidly towards the brig. Nichols, fall of exaltation, looked after the boat nntll it was lost to view. "My first plan was successful!” he mut-
tered. “Ally is dead! I am a rich man! And my second plan promises alike success ! When Margaret Lester’a heart is nearly broken at Amy’s loss, I will offer to restore her child on condition that she will marry me! The day of my full tri-

He looked with gloating eyes seaward, exalting in hi« evil success, until at last, nearly an hour later, 'the sails ot the Quickstep filled, and the brig moved swiMy toward tbe sea, taking with her Margaret Lester’s only comfort—the' dis-

what la that?”
He gazed in perfect stupefaction to the eastward, far out upon the ocean. There, miles and leagues away, was a ship, her white sails gleaming as she lay
becalmed upon tbe waters!
"A ship! a ship!” cried Lester, sobbingly. “At last, oh Heaven! At last
my prayer is answered!” THE PRISONER’S HOME.
On the east bank of tbe Elizabeth river, just out of Norfolk, and overlooking Hampton Roads, stood a beautiful cottage, the home of the wife and daughter of David Lester, the prisoner of the lone
island in the far Pacific.
Near the close of a lovely afternoon in Mrs. Lester and her daughter sat

A Text for MortonSenator Morton is in tho habit, in all his speeches, of charging corruption and immorality upon the Democratic party. That is tho staple article in all his vituporatioif'jpeecbos, and ho hurls oplthots against the Democracy without a why or a wherefore, to hide tho corruplions, immoralities and swindling in his own party, if not to cover up his own tracks. When Senator Morton makes’ his next speech, wo advise him to read to his audience tho following description of the candidate of the Rabical party for Llontenant Governor of Wisconsin, which wo copy from the Whitewater Register, a Radical paper published in that State. It says: "If public rumor docs not do him gross injustice, tills nomination is a standing insult to every Christian man—to every man who wisties for the perpetuation of the principles of morality. Mr. Pound is not only addicted to drink, but his other habifs are not such as will bo likely to be quoted as an example to the young. Probably no worse nomination could have been made.” Mr. Pound is a fair specimen of a large portion of tho active and influential leaders and operators in tho Radical party. Senator Morton could, if he would, pick out a good many Pounds in the Radical party in every county in Indiana.
The Railroad Tax.
Romo of the opponents to the donation to railroads, yesterday, boldly charged that the city press bad been bought. Corrupt people are always suspicious, and the suspicious are generally corrupt. The person who would make such a charge without knowing the facts, would sell himself if he could find a purchaser. We speak for the Sentinel only when we say that no pay has been promised or received, nor will any be received, lor any thing relating to the railroad tax. Wo learn that certain businesa men threaten that hereafter they woyld patronize tho small job offices. These threats have no terror for us. We advocated and voted for the tax because we believed it to be for the interest of Indianapolis. We did it without pay or the expectation of pay, and more than this we offered to publish any communication the opponents to the tax would prepare. Whenever wo have to advocate a matter of public interest for pay, or be deterred from advocating or opposing any measure by fear of losing the patronage of any man or set of men, the Sentinel will be for sale. While we own and control it, it will advocate whatever we deem for the interest of Indianapolis, let it please or displease whomsoever it may

The mother was a lovely
sail-eyed woman of two and thirty years. The daughter, Amy liester, not yet fifteen, was a strange compound of child
and woman.
“You are thinking of father, dear mother?” murmured the maiden, as she marked the lady’s longing gaze. "Yes, child. Your father, my husband; where is he? Somewhere under the sea waves, wrecked on a desert island, languishing on a hostile shore? It is fi years since he left us on that fatal voyage to China. My reason assures me that he is dead; yet Amy, lean only think of him as living.”
“It is so with n with a tremulous
dream often that he is living-
coming home!”
“Wo .need him in a hundred ways,” said Mrs. Lester, sighing. “If anything were to happen to me, Amy. I shudder to think what would become of you. You have boon brought up in luxury, and would feel keenly any change to pov-
erty.”
“Are wo not rich, then, mother?” ask-
ed Amy, in surprise.
“I supposed so, dear, nntll three years ago,” replied the mother sadly. "Your lather was a merchant and ship-owner, a partner of Colonel Nichols. But two years ago Colonel Nichols informed me that the outstanding debts of the liruv more than balanced the assets; in short Amy, that he was on the verge of bankruptcy, liis fortune and ours alike wreck-
ed!”
“I don’t like Colonel Nichols!” said Amv thoughtfully. “If he lost all his money witli"ours. how ih>es he live in such grand style? To whom do his ships and groat house belong?” “To his nephew, Ally Bell. Colonel Nichols is Ally’s guardian. The Colonel has nothing of his own, excepting a farm or two up-country which were not risked in tho business.” Amy contracted her little brows rcllcctively, and was about to reply, when the garden gate swung on its hinges, and a boyish figure came lightly up tho walk. “Its Ally, mother—it’s Ally Bell!" exclaimed Amy, all smiles and blushes. I’ll bring him to you.” The young girl ran lightly down tho varandah steps and met the now comer, linking her arm in his, and drawing him gently towards the house. He was a lad of seventeen, an orphan, the nephew and ward of Colonel Nichols. Bright and guy and handsomo, Allen Bell was also impetuous, ardent and intelligent—one of those noble, manly boys who mattyo early integrand and nolile men. Boy as he was, bo loved Amy Lester with a pure and chivalrous love, which bade fair to deepen in time Into tho great love of his .life. , ,Ho was tho liearer of a letter from his uncle to Mrs. lister, and liavlng deli vered L, ho strolled witli Amy down tho wide garden walks in the cool shadows of a grove at the bottom of the garden. “I’ve been expecting you this good while, Ally,” said Amy, with charming frankness. "I thought you would be down here to try those scientific experiments to-day!” “We’ll try them to-night, Amy,” replied Ally. “Tho blue lights show better at night.

powder in my pocket!”
He had bought this powder Just before he came aboard of the brig, for the experiments he had promised to show Amy
that very evening.
Without more ado, Ally set at work loading and firing the liltle cannon as apidly as possible, smashing the door, nd calling oat for everybody to keep ont of tbe way. The Captain and crew were frantic with fear, as there was a.large quantity of powder in the atate room, and. the prospect waa that the shipwoulc be blown to atoms. Having filled the state room and cabin with smoke, Ally seized one of the Captain’s revolvers, burst open the shattered door, rushed upon the deck, and leaped into the river. “Thunder and lightning!” cried Hiley, startled beyond expression. “After that boy, all of vou! Satan himself ia in him! A hundred dollars to the man who first
puts a hand upon him!”
With a veil, as of blood hounds, half a dozen of Hiley’s men aplaihed into the river, incited by the promise of money, and sprang to the puranit, while Hiley, hastily lowering a boat, rowed after his men, whom he soon overtook, one after another, and ordered into tne boat. Tbey then pulled on after Ally, who had distanced the men while they were in the water, but who could not compete with the boat.

her.
For a minute the youthful lovers stood at the garden gate, towards which they
walked
cliin Dei, upon tbe topmast, anil looked back at Hiley, who waa rapidly approaching. The Captain felt sure of his prey, and was telling his men how to seize the boy, when Ally suddenly fell from the topmast, as if shot, and immediately sunk
from sight.
"Thunder and lightning!” cried Hiley,
he’s gone!”
"Gone?” echoed all tho men in chorus “Yes, gone!” and Hiley sprang to his feet, bending forward. “I saw bun go! He fell back info tbe witor, and went down like a bullet, without the least cry! Pull for your lives!” Tho men obeyed. Tko boat was quickly beside tbe topmast. But no trace ol the boy could be found! “I'll take my Bible oalb,” said Hiley, “that the young salamander baa not gone towards the nearest shore—or any other. A cramp or a shark baa took him!” The eyes of tbe scheming villain lit up Strangely, almost savagely. “Aiul snch boing the fact, men,” added he, “we n.ay os well give up tho
search.”
The men resumed their oars, the Captain tho tiller, and the Imat returned in sileuco to the brig, utth Alio dinging •/nielli/ t" the stern—his head just far enough out of the water to enable him to breathe—ami there he continued to stay until tho boat returned to the brig. And then, the Isiat being left In tbe water, at the stern of the brig, it occurred to Ally to mi fasten the boat from ita painter, let it drift down stream some distance, then climb into it, and row away for Norfolk, which he at once did. For a minute or two the boat continued to speed away in tho darknesa. And then Ally climbed out of the water into it, w it h a long sigh of relief, and seized a pair ot oars resolutely. Crouching tint of sight in the bottom of the boat, he began rowing shorewards— but softly, for he was still near the brig, and tbe night was so calm he feared his enemies might hear him. There was only too much occasion, oa it proved, for this caution. Tne boat had not been gone two minutes from tbe brig, when Captain Hiley, wishing to go ashore to see Colonel Nlcbola, made his way aft, and discovering its disappearance, at once sent a couple of men after it In another boat. Ally seeing that he must again take to the water, took tho oars along with him, and went drifting seaward, with nothing but a pair of oars to support him. The night had now tully set in and the tide ran fast. Cramped and chilled by his long continuance In the water, the boy was whirled along, growing weaker every moment; but just aa hope was at its ebb, he suddenly beheld a sail behind him, rapidly appro-trliing. under the force of a freshening breeze.
CHAPTER IV. LESTER ESCAPES AND HEARS FROM HOME. We left David Lester on his lonely islad, planning bis escape, with a ship in sight from the elevated point where he was at work. He waited till night and until a priest ot the idolatrous temple came to chain him in bis dungeon, where they nightly confined him; and then suddenly leaping upon the priest, he bore him to tbe floor, chained and gagged him, diagnised himself in his priestly robes, stained his face brown with dirt, went to the shore where the canoes were lying, entered one of them, and paddled out to sea in the direction in which he had seen the ship. He paddled for hours with all his strength, and had gone so lar that the lights of the island could not be seen, and yet no ablp had been tonnd; and now tne wind waa riaing and a storm was threatening. “Oh, God! Am I forsaken?” he cried, in an awful anguish, seized with a fear that the wind would take the ship from him. “Must I perish here?” At that moment when hope was dying, he beheld a sight that turned all his wild woe into yet wilder ecstasy. There, in the northward, waa the ship, standing directly toward him, with all sails set to catch the rising breeze, and not half a mile away. “Yee, there she is,” he shonted. “She is coming this way. I am saved—saved!” He raised his arms to heaven in mate thanksgiving and sobbed aloml, the glad tears streaming down bis worn and haggard cheeks. Tbe ship came nearer and nearer. He redoubled his wild shouts, his heart and soul in his voice. An answering cry came suddenly from the sbip’a deck, and she drew steadily nearer—swerved from her course slightly, and a rope was thrown from her deck, failing into bis canoe. He seized the rope in desperate eagerness, and a group of sailors leaning over the ship’s side, drew him aboard. In an instant more tbe ship bad resumed her coarse, and was moving in stately fashion liefore tbe breeze. “Safe at last!” murmured Lester, leaning against the bulwarks, weak and nerveless as an infant. “Oh, tbe gladness of this hour!” Poor man! He did not dream at that moment that his adverse fate waa even then relentlessly closing around him; that he was on one ot hia own ships—the Uyclone; that that ship was commanded bv a bitter foe in league with Colonel Ntcbols, who, on recognizing him, would without remorse consign him again to the mercies of the Pscific in his Indian
canoe.
On inquiry. Lester learned that the vessel waa the cVctone, ami in the light of the jabin lamp recognized her Captain. Tearing off his priesly robe, and wiping the stain from his face with its lolds, he

She fonnd Mrs. Lester, the open letter In her lap, silent and motionless as a statue, lier attitude that of profound de-
spair.
“What is it, mother?” cried Amy, in wild alarm, springing to her side. Mrs. Lester looked at her daughter
with a woe-stricken face.
“O, Amy!” she cried, turning to that brave, childish heart for strength and comfort. “Colonel Nichols writes me that we are beggars! He reminds me that he has asked me three several times to marry him. And, Amy, he says he knows your father to 1)« dead, and he offers himself to me for the last time. He reminds me of my ill-health, of your youth and helplessness. And ne says,” and Mrs. Lester’s voice broke down in a tempest of sobs, “that on the one hand he offers me wealth, comfort, and happiness, on the other poverty and sorrow. If I refuse him, he swears to turn us out
of our home to-morrow!”
“Oh. mother!” exolaimed Amy, with a sharp cry, as she hid her fane in her
mother bosom.
CHAPTER II.
A DESPERATE STRUGGLE FOR LIRERTT. Before Ally Bell reached the brig lying at the wharf, bis uncle, Colonel Nichols, had been there and arranged with the Captain, who went by the name of Hiley, to carry Ally off to China, for which service the Colonel promised to give the Captain the brig and ten thousand dollars, in ease the boy never came bark. Ililey was a murderer, whose real name waa Spronls, and Colonel Nichols knew it. And Colonel Nichols had robbed Mrs. Lester, and now wanted to rob his nephew and have him murdered, and Hiley knew that, and resolved that Ally Bell should never see Norfolk again. “Where is the lad?” he asked as he and Colonel Nichols finished drinking success to their nefarious schemes, to whioh the
Colonel replied:
“He should be here si thia very moment. Ah, I hear hie step on deck now!
Here he comes!”
Even as he spoke Ally Bell came harrying into the cabin, his face flashed with
pleasurable excitement.
York Kun. | "I’m just in time to see yon off, Cap-
"A brig, certain!” he groaned, after a long look at the nearing cloud of canvas. “It must lie old Hiley’s’ The wind having come again, hois off for the Pacific ocean!” • Ho regarded the brig as it came nearer, asking himself if he should hail her. “Let her bo what she may,” he mattered, “friend or foe, I must hail her! Mv strength is used up! I shall soon slip off from these oars and drown! Fortunately the brig is coming straight towards me. I will hail her!” He waited till the brig was near him, and then carried bis resolve into execution. His feeble call waa beard and answered, the brig hove to, a boat was lowered, and he waa taken aboard tbe stranger. The boy bad only strength enough to learn that the brig was nut Uiiey's, and then ho fainted. CHAPTER nr- ^ —- MORE VILLAINY. Captain Hiley, verily believing that Ally was drowned, went ashoro to inform Colonel Nichols of the fact. He found the Colonel just coming from Mrs. [.ester’s cottage, where he had gone an hour before, and stunned Amy by informing her that Ally Bell, her lover and hero, was being carried off to sea in the Quickstep, and that she would never see him again. The Colonel heard Hiley's story abont Ally’s disappearance with hreathlesa interest, as they walked along the beach; after which the two villains congratulated themselves upon tbe boy’s being thus completely taken out of their path. While discussing the matter, they heard the sound of oars and soon saw a boat approaching tbe shore opposite a cottage belonging to an old retired sailor named Nicholas Collins, which was situated at tbe foot of Mrs. Lester’s garden. In the boat was a man, and along with him was a female, sobbing oonvnlsively. Colonel Nichols, with surprise and alarm, recognized the voice of tbe weeper as that of Amy Lester. She and her companion left the boat and entered the cottage, from the windows of whioh a light soon shone. Colonel Nichols snd Captain Hiley crept beneath a window, to spy and listen. They soon learned that Collins had rowed Amy off to tbe brig in search of Ally, and that she had there heard of his attempt to escape and his consequent death by drowning. Amy waa vehement in her dennneiations of Colonel Nichols, and declared that if Ally was leaily dead, she would raise the whole country against his ancle who had compassed hia death. On attempting to rise to go home, Amy *"!?.<* sh ® too w4ak to walk, and sent Collins for her mother to come to her. As soon as the old sailor left the cottage, Colonel Nlebols proponed to Hiley that be should <»rry Amy off instead of Ally, Md leave her on a plantation of his on the coast, down by <?*pe Henry, so ae to si lence her dangerous tongne, and also to give him a hold on her mo.her. Tbe Captain agreed to this, and they entered the

I/ester wiped his brows and sat down, the Captain taking a aeat opposite him. Ho had ho much to bhU, that hU emotions choked hia utterance, ami prevented him from olwerving the look of deadly hatred with which the Captain regarded 1 i. But he finally plied hia question* : .ot, and learned that his wife yet lived, that his daughter Amy bail grown into a lovely girl, and that both wile and daughter had long mourned him bh dead. He alao leaned of his wife’s poverty. “Colonel Nichols aottled up tho firm affairs,” said the I'aptain, reservedly, “and there was nothing loll for Mrs. Lester. She has been living on his Isuiuty these two or three years! When your Interest in thin ship was mild. 1 bought it. The Colonel owns the other half!” “But this is a base fraud!” exclaimed Leater. “The Colonel has Leon untrue to the trust 1 reposed in him! 1 have had suspicions of his integrity during my long exile, hut I have never dared to entertain thorn. I’ll make matters straight on my return. I can prove my claims and bring him to justice—tho dastardly villain! Aiy poor Margaret!” and he
groaned.
Lester’s threat concerning Nichols seemed to stir up all tho malice ot the Captain’s nature. He licheld his interest in the ship, fraudulently acquired, threatened, and he hated still more the lawful owner whose right in the Cyclone
he had usurped.
“If report speaks truly,” he said, “Mrs. Lester need not be called ‘poor!’ Colonel Nichols has long been paying her attentions, and when I loft port, five months ago, the story was that they were en- "! The Colonel told me himself that

loved her, and meant to marry her. ‘ v this time they are married!” This cruel thrust struck home to
poor husband’s heart, and uttering a deaf cry, he fell forward with his face upon the table, while the Captain regarded him with a look of mingled hatred and exultation.
