The old lady kept the sc-erct within her own doors, otul patiently waited a breaking out of the deception from some other source, which within the course of a year thereafter did leak out in the following manner. The boy. by this lime having grown to be quite a lad, and like other hoys, a'iiitlo mischievous, lb? pretended widow becoming angry with him at a lime, commenced-boating hipt in a brutal manner, with a Lillet of wood; when the boy in a similar temper, told her-w;itbin the hearing of (he old :ady, that th: had no business to beat him-, for she was not his mother. , The old lady .immediately appealed before them—forbade Mich n mode.of correction upon her premises, and declared audibly (hat the boy had spoken the truth when he said she was not his mother, and that.- at had been known to her.for a long time. / V-. ’

It may null be supposed that tliis sudden development was a heavy shock to overcome, (and would have been by an ordinary personage,) ; but the pretended widow facet I the foe co wage on sly—-ac-cused the boy of uUeriag an impious falsehood, a ad iicniedovery thing asset led by him opposing the manned plot. The old lady told her that" it was useless to deny] the iaying?'of the boy,Ter the:imposition had long Xecn disclosed t h rough'the. modimn of Mr. Waller's correspondence. . The boy then told the old people, whom he had cal|«d ghmd-parent;: so long, .that he had •never tcca this pretended widow lor America.- He satd , that his mother was a pbor ltish. washvwomab, hnd that Mr. Waller and this woman. Waller's wife, came to bis mother, and persuaded her, after, many; entreaties,'to-let him go with Mrs. Walter to the United States, where he niight become heir to a large fortune—that ho nov<r need loWraday. in hjs life. Ilia mother finally cd, as la all probability she could never render him the least possible assistance. The next movement wes to obtain his consent, which was efibeted, at last/ by promising him: a pony horse to ride to school. ■ . ' ■ ■ ‘ :

The boy's i.-tie name was Wm.'Sharp. to the Stale of Ohio when (juite voting; and in all probability is (hero still. - Aa to the lin.il end of Beach Hill, many.lure been the conjecture, lie must h wc.lwii w?!l known, to - the pretended widow*:—possibly he might have been a boarder in the Waller famil}*, or Waller might ':iav? boon a brother seaman.. llo might have diid a natural death, or his litu might have been taken by the ahora* in able miscreants. These are conjecture! only, and the reader, as well as the writer, ts at liberty to-form his own wnd!-

On the passage lha boy hail to receive lessons adapted to the place hb was to till, and he proved hhntelf an ; efficient scholar—not once having betrayed the deception until provoked by-the brutal treatment .before alluded to. It may naturally be supposed that a Strong disaffeelion had, by this.lime,. taken tins place of family, endearment in the minds of ‘the old couple since the discovery of the hold imposition; however, they, endured more and managed very dmcicut. from most other people ia like situations. , A coulercncc was held with tbb.pretended tvidovy-r-the ; deception finally placed to her accounts, and although she boldly denied the, chargo for a.time, yet was too guilty to ViUinialely hold out, and yielded to a , private arrangement, rather than to a public exposuic. Which agreement.granted-,her the privilege of remaining where she was during one smpmerund clost-ly pursue her trade, thereby to' obtain. means' io convey her back to LoAdon. The boy; was to ‘remain with the old peop.lo' until her departure, and then,' if they thought proper, put him to o trade. • ‘ . Thus millers' rem ained daring the summer, without the first development of a diseiosnre from any one, autumn arrived;, and the necessary means obtained for the purpose set forth', in the contract, she was taken to Bridgeport, and from thence was to proceed to Boston, where a ship had advertised to sail on a certain day direct to London, intelligence spread; withabout the iamp rapidity ns did her. arrival; and although her departure - produced Eomc talk vrithia the circle oMier nc(|nai.ufan«, ya'np one smpectcd the cause at‘the time, and perhaps it would always have remained a secret, had she not digiossed from the agreement, and first opened the way which led to disclose her true character to the eyes of (he public. Instead of proceeding direct to Boston as was expected, she hastened fo. thovily of Kcw York, equipped herJe’f with new dresses and finery, and in about a week was back again into the same-township, so recently left as was supposed forever, and offered bur service* at a millinery shop of a Mis.
