Jack Thompson, the owner of the pilotboat, which by this time had been pushed into the water, had formerly rated as an able seaman on board a yankee frigate; from ther.ee he had passed into the mer-ohauc-scrv ice, and, being cast upon the (it nnan coast in a tempest which lclt not another of his shipmates to tell the story, had domesticated himself at llisenberg, and gained his living as a pilot, by pre-servin"-o:hjr vessels Loin tlie late

At an early hour the disconsolate mate, with his silent companions, walked down to the pier, meditating upon the mysterious fate of thutr unlucky superior, when unc a spirit from tile odier world, they

Such was Jack Thompson's history of
