SATURDAY, 51 AY II, tSIO. IFroni the Overland Monthly for May. THE 8T0SY OF THE SECOND MATE.

conclusion. After a pause, he began: "Miss Mary, you've no need to tell me what I am; as one of them old chap3 that's in the cabin with you did. once, since we've been out o'port. I know jest what I am better'n you and he could tell me if you was to try your best and keep it up, risht on end, for s week. I'm an ignorant brute that ain't fit to touch yer dress let alone yer hand. I do my duty when I'm at sea, and I play when I'm ashore and that's all there is o'me. But, you see, I never had no briEffln' up. I don't even know who my mother was: and I've been kicked arouDd Cherry street when I was a boy, and knocked round at sea ever since Iwas big enough to know the end of a marlin' spike. I ain't so bad a3 some of the sailors thinks I am; but I'm a hundred thousand fathoms below you. All I waht to tell you is jsst this : There's never a man among all the lot you've knowed that could begin to love you as I do. For God's sake don't look afeard of me, I ain't such a fool as to think that you could ever keer a straw for me; but I can't help tellin' you how true and honest I love you. I'd die happy for you, Miss Mary, even if I knowed you'd never think of me again. I never meant to tell you this; and I'll never say another word about it. But, my God! when I think or howl love you, and how there's fifty thousand Atlantio oceans between us, I've thought of it some nights. Miss, till I couldn't bear it any looger, and I've jest jumped forrard and gone to lickin' the sailors, to kep from goin' crazv. and " " "Mr. Jones, Mr, Jones," came the sharp call of the captain. cutticg short the poor fellow's confession. "Ay, ay, sir!" he answered, and went to meet his sober, but by no means sane comnjander. "Vhyhavnt you got the to'gallants'ls set sir? Didn't I tell you to give her all she'd csrry ? "The' fore-to'gallant yard's a little .sprung, sir, and I wasn't sure of it's beariD, the sail." answered Mr. Jones. "I'll do the thinkirgfor thi3 ship. Mr, Jones, if you've no objection," retorted the captain. "Set the fore and mizzsn to'gillatta'ls, and don't you start a sheet until I give you the word." The top gillant sails were sheeted bourn, and the yards hoisted. The wind, which hid been blowing strongly all day, had freshened as the sun set, and was now blowicg a jtiff gale from the eastward. The Bhip staggered and plunged under her heavy press of canvas. The captain walked the decks with a quick, nervous step. He was intensely irritable, from the effecls of his prolonged debauch,' and, though quite sober, was goaded by his unstrung nerves into a reckless impatience that found relief only in the excitement of driving his ship to; the uttermost of her capabilities. I listened with une.isincfB to the howling of the wind through the ringing, and debated the question, whether to go to sleep, and so forget the dacger we were in, or to g J on deck and make myfclf uncomfortable. by watching for the disaster whieh I apprehended. My decision was quickened by a sudden order from the captain. "Mr. Jones, sst the main royal." "Set the irain royal, sir?' repeated tho astonished second mate, in -a doubtful tone. "Set tho ma:n nyal, sir. Do ycu hear?" ronred tho capfain. "Loose all three of them, and set them instantly. If you; don't know how to sail a ship with a fair wind, I'll show yMr. Jones hesitated no longer. In a few momenta the royals were spread to the gala; but before the yards were trimmed I was on deck. . Mis3 Ellis had disappeared, and the second mate was evidently averse to conversation. I notieedthat a man lingered near the mizzen-rigging after the rest of tho watch had gone forward. So, too. did the captain, who walked abruptly up to the sailor, and demanded to know what he was waiting for. "Mr. Jonca ordered me to stand by the halyards, sir." answered the man. "Go forward 1" yelled the captain. "Mr. Jones. I want you to understand that when I'm on deck I can sail this ship without any. interference. Let m see any more of it. and I'll put ycu in irons for mutiny; by " Poor Mr Jones gave no answer. Himself the most intolerant and cruel of di.-eiplinrians, he did not resent the rating of his commander. When that amiable officer turned away, his subordinate pa?s id over to the other eida of the deck, and leaned quietly against the bulwarks. An hour passed aw&y. It wss a earless night and to the danger of running ashore was added the other danger of a possible collision with Bomo passdog vessel. 1 thought of this, and wis just about to pick my way f oi ward, to satisfy myself that the lookout was not asleep, when the second mate suddenly plased his hand to his ear, and bent forward, as though listening intently. In another moment, a sharp, piercing cr7 rang from the forecastle "Breakers ahead 1 "Let go yer royal and to'gallant halyard, fore and aft !" roared the second mate. ."Stand by yer topsail halyard, nian the port braces, some of us; and stand by to slack the starboard bracc3. nail all hands. .'Bout ship!" But while the light sails were yet fltfprinsr in the cars, and before the yard could bo swung, so as to change the vessel's course, she struck heavily, bows on the main and fore top-gal-Jant masts going over tne siae, ana .1 c.Tin i? the mizzen topmast with a.ni At the same moment an cnor m,ia preen sea boarded us on the n,10rfpr Rweenioz awav the wretched .antain. several of the crew, and the first mate, who was on deck a few seconds alter sue strueic. jjUCKiiy. i wa too far forward to receive the full force of the wave, end as soon as the deck was clear of water. Mr. Jones made his way to my side and said, 'Go below and bring the gal forrard to the fo'castle. Steady, now; and don't get yourself overboard." By narrowly watching our opportu-nity.-Dick, Miss Ellis, her father and myself managed to gain the forecastle. Mr Jones, bareheaded, and with his coat off. was busily tupermtendirjg the cutting away of the masts and the clotting of the wreck, which was thumping against tha side with dangerous violence. Relieved from the weight of her top-hamper the ship ro-e somewhat, and drove fortberjn upon the sand. The seas boarded us less frequently; but the ship pound--r, !. heaeh with a violence which . .,r.pA her in immitent danger of breaking upf - - , When he had done what ne could for our momentary safety, Mr. Jones called the crew and said:-"If any of vou want to try the boat, you can do :. T alian't. You can't be no more ce here, but it's the safest place for . you However, if you want to take tbe boat, I won't stand in your way." .

"" We'll take tho boat, Mr. Jones," replied one of the men. "She'll go to pieces in half an hour, and you'd better come with us." "Not I," returned the second mate, laughing. "I don't take no boating excursions ia thi3 weather. Wear away the boat if you want to, and good luck to you." And then turnine to tho passengers, he continued: " If you'll take my advice, you'll stop aboard. She'll last some time yet, but them fellows in the boat'll be swamped in ten minutes." "We stay' with you," said Mary,

walk'Dg up to Mr. J oces, and placing her little hand in his rough, brown paws. That settled the question, for her and the rest ot us. The men cleared away a leaky boat that lay bottom upward on the house amidships, and, casting off, vanished in the darkness. Mr. Jones told u3 to keep where we were, while he went alt tor a moment. We watched bim cautiously work icg his way aft to the wheel house, which was still standing. Presently he came in sight again, carrying a lifertr . - Duoy. we knew tor wnom it was in tended. Bat just as he had passed beyond the line of danger, he was struck by a mignty wave that tore mm irom eis hold, and dashed him against the stump of the mainmast. Receding, tbe wave left him clinging to a bolt, but unable to ri?c. Dick and I dragged him forward, and laid him with his head in Mary'lap. The brave fellow never lost his hold of the lifepreserver. He was insensible for a few moments, and on coming out of his 6woon. Faid: "Tell her to keep this on. We must be near the shore, and if she holds together till daylight, they may get a line to us." . "But are you hurt, dear Mr. Jones?" cried Mary. "I'm done for, Miss," he answered, shortly. "My leg's broke, and my ribs is stove in. WJby the don't somebody hist that lantern where it can be seen?" . .We took the ship's lantern, which was still aglow, and fastened it to the head of the foremast, which bad been broken ju3t at the slings of thi yard. "I hope you fellows knows what to Jo if they gets a line aboard?" he asked doubtfully. We assured him that we did. Then silence fell upon U3, as we sat waiting for death, or the dawn. . We were huddled together under the lee of the bulwarks. The old gentleman said never a word, but, from the frequent movement of his lips, was doubtless craving for our safety. Dick, who was the coolest of men, filled and lighted hi3 pipe, confidently expressing his conviction that the ship would hold together until daylight. Mary was silent, stroking with . gentle hand tbe weatherbeaten brow of the second mate. Did her tenderness spring from remorse at having won his love, or wa3 it possible that she really caed for him? Who shall know the fathomless mysteries of a woman's heart? Hours had passed when Mr. Jones suddenly opened hi3 eyes, and asked, "Has anvbody seen anything of the boat yet?" I looked over the side. and. bv a singular coincidence, caught sight of a boat drifting by us, bottom upward. rilhe second mate actually laughed. I knowed," said he. "I told 'em the boat couldn't live in that sea. And if you had gone with them fellows, it would a been ail day with you by this time." He relapsed again into silence, and apparent insensibility. When next he spoke bis mind was evidently wan , dering. "I tell you," he suddenly cried, in a voice that started u? with its wild intensity, "that chronometer's wrong, and we'll be ashore before morning. Aud if-that pretty youcg creetur's drowned. I'll drown j tne old man myself, so help mc uou. The night passed slowly on. The wind gradually lulled, and the sea perceptibly went down. " Daylight will soou be here," cried Dick ;." we shall be saved yet." -Mr. Jones raised his , head and locked out into tho night. The calm and resolute look had returned to his eyes. - "I see the dawn, boys," he said, " stick by the ship." The sea's going down, and you're as safe as if you was asl-.ore. " We won't go ashore without you, Mr. Jones," said Mary. " I will nurse you day and night until you are well." " Nursin' won't do me no god, Miss Mary," ho answered. "You needn't take me ashore. I'd a great sight rather 03 hove overboard as soon as the breath's out of me" ... "It's growing light fast," said Dick, after another pause. But the second mate never opened his eyes." "Miss Mary," he whispered .in a faint voice. "I'm agoin'. now. Just let me hold ycur hand, if you don't mind." She placed her hand in his, and a tear dropped on the bard, red face of Mr. Jones. Dick and I did not venture to approach nearer to the awful presence of Death. "I'm dyin', Miss, but I'm glad of it. 1 couldn't have lived without the sight of you: .and. I'm happier now than I ever was before." . . The tears fellagain, and the sweet girl bent over and touched her pure lips to the forehead of the dying man. A bright smile softened his stern, worn face. "May God Almighty pay you for your poodness," he whispered, huskily. "I don't know where I'm agoin' to, but if ever you come there, you'll let me look' at you sometimes, won't you? I'll " never bother you, but I could not bear to have you cut me." : ' A dull report came floating from the invisible shore. . "There's the gun," cried Mr. Jones. "They see our light ashore, and they'll have a surf boat here before long. Good-bye, Miss Mary. You'll make it all right for me up aloft. I know. Tell 'em I obeyed orders and done my duty by the ship. Tell 'em you kissed me when I way dyin'. They won't be hard on me if they know that. Make somebody fake that mate's log-book ashore, fle.waa all right; but the lubber that wrecked his ship with a fair wind. Let me look at your eyes once. My God! how I have loved " And the Second mate wa3 dead. ikfiCmiTECTS. c a xt 3D. ROB'SBT BOTD. I WOOD B u Y D L WOOD,' AEOHITEOTS, No. 7 Chandler's Block, Corner Flr.it and lcnst Streets, .
