After earef :'Jy inquiring, he fo ir,d that old Dottcriield and his dame still lived at their cottage near h.i old place of residence; and that his b ji Henry was a youth of uncommon promise, and was receiving an education from his protectors, which w;is suiting to his wishes. lie therefore determined to remain unknown until circumstances should warrant his claiming him from his nurse. Unfortunately, however, he had contracted so many La I habits of dissipation during hi? career in Europe, that in the course of several months all those propensities returned upon him, and he soon assoeiated with a man, an abandoned fellow, from Canada, whose habits were similar to his own. This man was notorious for debauchery, and i;i company with Gordon they were hunting and scouring the country, like two roaring lions seeking lor prey. At fiood this time, residing n his neighborwas an amiable family consisting of a husband and wif?, one son, and two interesting daughters. Thh iamilvcam? the ob'eci of their damnable plan.

Accordingly, il was one afternoon in September, that he. in company with his Canadian companion, started with the child for the habitation of i'.s pretended nurse. The evening came on. and darkness veiled the earth. They travelled on, revolving in their minds the safest way of disposing of the little innocent, while the i, bab-t unconscious of the infanticidal wretches in whose arms it was sleeping, quietly was borne along with them until they reached within the sounds of the Cascade mentioned in our tirst Chapter. Tin s w as the place here, enshrouded in below tho cataract darkness, the g'Ut would forever hide Gordon and Marias illegitimate offspring; and they co.dd palm siime story which would in the end screen themselves from being known as the perpetrators of a deed at which hu manity recoils with horror. Provided with a lantern, they halted; , and while one descended the bank of ih hill to reconnoitre the spot, the other remained with the child. At length the thing was settled, and Gordon h'mself.to bore the infant to the temporary bridge J above the waterfall, and tossing it into the s'rearn, hurried, as he supoused, ad evi dence of bis illicit connection with the unfortunate girl, in tho roaring torrent, which with resistless fury rwept along, foaming towards the precipice orer which in hoarse thunder it dashed dovrr After which they both viewed th .. 1 U,.,.,l, ' of this iniquitous transaction, ana uciuu ihemsMves to their horses an i left ihe ll'.W, little thinking ihat a human eye had

aecn thia dark deed, as well aa that All-led

seeing Eye, whose glance is fiom heaven to earth, and watches all tilings. They did palm a story upon tlie wretch-

ed mother of the infant, which die v con-!vi?e

tideniiy supposed they finished at the cas-j cade. They told her the child was safe-! ly delivered into the hands of a careful nurse; resolving that ere Maria should be! al io to visit it, to report that it sickened ! and died. A few weeks after, in a hunting erpe-! vhtiou, they camo upon the domains of old j Batterlieid, when they discovered Matilda , walking m the garden with a child in her arms. Gordon had not seen Matilda since she was an infant; and his eyes no sooner

encountered her, than he marked her tor him. J lie morning s dawn, how ever, reanother victim. It was this that made lieved him, and the next day seemed to

mm hurry Ins companion from the spot ! without visiting the house. She is, thought ho, a gem worth sullying; but for a long time the unfortunate Maria occupied his lime; as for the benefit of fier health lie carried her to Canada, and thence to the eastern states. It was of no avail, however, for. like a fljwer, she faded and gradually fell into a co:i sumption, of which she died; and Gordon had her buried decently, passing her off as h s w ife, in the town where she breathed her last. Her death was. to him, a relief from a burden which for a long time he had anxiously wished. He could now set his plans in operation against the daughter of his oi l friend Butterfield. CU ATTEtli V. Eighteen or nineteen years had now elapsed since old Butterfield and his dame had heard from Gordon, and as fio was aware that they supposed him dead, he resolved now to discover himself, take Henry under his own charge, and obtain for him a commission in the United States' Arm y. Accordingly, fie made his appearance one nurning at the residence uf his old friend. Nicholas and the dame, with Matilda and ihe two children, Julia and Henry, were at breakfast when. Gordon rode up and dismounted from his horse. As he approached the deer, which was open, old Sarah raised her specks on beholding a gentleman of such uncommon appearance about enteiing their dwelling: 'Sure I have seen that face before,' muttered -die, aside to Nicholas, who rose from the table to meet Gordon as ho advanced with a smile on his countenance. Its Henry's father,' exclaimed she, springing forward; at tho same time old Nicholas was grasping Lis hand, unable to opeak from joy on again beholding his old friend. 'I though: you was dead and buried, drowned and swallowed up in ihe ocean; and your lady! poor, dear, creature, where is she?' continued the old lady, also seizing his hand 'Nick Butterfield! why, don't yon know the gentleman? it is Henry's father!' 'es, yes; I know him, stammered Nicholas, as soon as lie cou'd speak. Every thing now was bustle and confusion at the dame's. She talked incessantly, relating every transaction that had transpired since his absenceHenry w as the theme of her praise 'h-s was her darling -lie wished lie was there; why he was a man grown.' I folks w ii'i an apparent pleasure, while they related the p.aiseef Ids son, an i everything that had taken place. At the mention of the rescue of the child from the cascade, how ever, i.e 5 tar ted, and turned paie; an in-

voluntary chill run through his veins. tilda noticed them, and wondered to herBut I run sale, thought fie there was self what secret thought could produce

no murder after all; and by a powerful exertion he instantly recovered himself, so as not to excite any feelings of wonder at his sudden shock. But fie could not keep it from his mind Mil luck,' mattered he to hims"!f; 'the brai-i' still alive, rescued by its brother. During the day, Gordon ha I an opportunity of beholding Matilda; and saw with what anxious solicitude she attended to the little Julia. He saw too the crimson blush which mantle 1 her intel igent coun tenance, at the mention of Henry's name. Ay, ay, thought he, I see fiovv the laud lavs; she's for Henry. Tlie next day Henry arrived from his studies, having been sent for al tlie request of Gordon. The meeting between tlie father and son, on ths part of the latter, was attended with an affection, and evinced an unbounded pleasure in at Ungth beholding that parent whom fie had been taught to believe W3s long since numbered with the silent dead, reposing in ocean's grave, or inhumed in a foreign land. Strange as it ma- appear, Gordon, while he contemplated the manly figure of the youthful Henry his fine proportioned limbs and athletic appearance, together with the commanding look which nature seemed to fiave stamped upon his brow j he experienced any other feeling3 than those cf pleasure and affection. He knew integrity and virtue were the characteristics of this son whom he now looked on; and this was a barrier to the enjoyment of h'S infamous career. Henry would skrink in horror and disgust at the life lie was leading; and he knew it would be impossible for all his misdeeds to escape the eagle eyes of one so intelligent and observing a9 his son. But I will teach him. if nossible. far me, thought he; little thinking, 7 , howeve,, (,at t;li3 bosom of Henry containCd a heorr fcirtoci na ilia uril.l finai. who roams tlm J.35eits 0f ,19 east and whose manly 50 g!ovve J everv noble feeling whu, burn in lhe bosom it the great and gooo.

tfier; but they were horrid dreams the ; eye, caught the figure of his father cater, demon of darkness seemed to whisper in . ing his room. Suspicion dashed a9 quick his slumbers, 'beware cf th:9 man whom! as a sunbeam through fiis mind, but as nature decreed to be your parent, A day 'quick was banished by reflection. 'Atvav,

will come when you will cui so the hour of your birth; when you will almost be tempt - ed to become a paricidal wretch!' With euch dreams ho awoke often during the night, and his troubled sleep perplexed almost erase them from his recollection. Matilda had, during the day, frequently caught the brazen gaze of Henry's father. There was something in his looks that almost terrified her; still the smile which played around his mouth, and danced in his glistening eye, apparently bore nothing uncommon in their appearance, and strove to banish from her mind the feelings of terror which his too frequent gaze created. She observed that he watched her motions, and seemed to court her presence; but far from attributing the right cause to tho uncommon notice lie bestowupon her, she formed a more favorable opinion of him on Henry's account. The first day of Gordon's appearance at B'ltterfield's, however, wore off without any thing material occurring, and the next morning Henry was to be absent during tfie elav. Matilda retired to her room in the evening; but like Henry, she could not sleep for dreaming several times 6he awoke frightened, supposing seine one was in her chamber; and once the little Julia, struggling in a small bed beside her, awoke her. Siie sprang from fier own, half asleep, towards the child. It seemed panting for breath; and whether it was imagination or reality, she tho't she saw the shadow of something pass the door; but little given to fear, however, the shock was but momentary. Supposing the child was sick, she went below and waked the dame, who also 3ruse to see what was the matter with her darling Julia. Nothing appeared to ail the child, except that an uncommon lednessof countenance showed that there had been a difficulty of breathing. The remainder of the nigh: p issed otf, and the next morning the circumstance was scarcely remembered, or at least nothing was said on the subject. Henry, -soon after the family arose, left the house, expecting to be absent all day, and perhaps not return until the next. During this day, Gordon, in company with Butterfield, viewed the domains, and the improvements which had been mado in his long 'absence. Matilda and little Henry and Julia walked some time with them, she leading one and carrying the other. Gordon was very attentive and polite a winning smile seemed ever playing around his hps; and ho noticed the children, often carrying them. The dame was uncommonly pleased with tlie attention shown to the children by Gordon, and once or twice remarked a resemblance between him and her little protege Julia. Gordon's blood boiled in frenzy at tlie mero mention of such a trivial circumstance, and the crimson stream dyed his countenance to a puple color, every lime ?he mentioned it; and notwithstanding he strove by every art in his power io conceal his emotions, Mathese sudden changes. The evening came on, however, and: Henry did not return, and most of the f3in - ily retired to rest except old Sarah and Ma - tilda. While sitting alone, the latter m - quired innocently of her mother, if Henry's father w as always such as ho now appeared in his looks and actions. No, dear, he is strangely altered since his residence in those foroign parts, and J methinks he does not notice our Henry ;

ellect a revolution at some future period, dropped the subject and retired also to rest. The dame, after sitting up a short time for Henry, and finding he did not return, with her usual carefulness saw everything safe, and went to bed. In the mean time young Gordon, having accomplished the object of his absence for that day, set out for tho residence of his old nurse. But it was leu In the evening when he neared the dwelling. A more beautiful nL-ht w as rarely to be seen. The full moon sent forth its brightest glare of light from the star-studded canopy, and nature seemed still as if reposing quietly and tianquilly beneath the splendidly curtained heavens, thus adorned with all the gems of the firmament. As he approached, silence within seemed to proclaim to him tli3t the somniferons god had taken to his bosom the inmates of the dwelling; and on reaching the door he pushed it open. Slam went down the large iron shovel which the dame aovariably placed Against it, when any one was out aftet the rest had retired. The sound of the Tailing iron had scrcely struck his ears, when a scream from the room above assailed him, and in a moment after the dame and Nicholas rushed from their room. illenry Gordon,' exclaimed old Sarah, vha: is the matter! wfiat screams are those?' 'They are Matilda's,' answered he, immediately recognizing the sound of her voice, and springing to the flight of stairs which led above, at the top of which he met Matilda affrighted, and in her nighi clothes. 111st de recenomg.

'What, in heaven's name, means this?'

; exclaimed tho dame who followed lieu ry. j 'J nothing I know no'.,' answered the; jterrifttd girl, trembling and rushm rastj them below, j Henry paused a moment as 1 teod at the top of the stair-way, and turning his t base thought,' murmured be, 'it cannot ! be it is impossible!' Something, howj ever, had frightened Matilda, and he again descended the stairs. She had lied to j tho room of her mother, and Nicholas mgly dreaming. 'What frightened Iter." said Ilenrv, addressing him. Your O, frightaned O, I don't kuow,' stammered Nicholas, endeavoring to recover himsell. Again suspicion darted through Henry's mind, and tottering to a chair, fie leaned his head on his hand a few moments. In the mean time the dame, who had followed her daughter, again entered the room. There was thunder in her c untenance, for lightning seemed to lias! from her eyes. 'The villain!' muttered she; stopping short, however, on seeing Henry; and al once dispelling the fiery clouds of anger from Iter countenance, approached him. 'What frightened her?' repeated Henry, starting and addressing Sarah. The dame, with a caution peculiar to herself, though evidently with a forced smile, answered 'Nothing, she has been dreaming.' Henry replied not, but was firmly convinced in his own mind of something wrong and immediately retired to his pillow. There sleep denied its calming influence to his now troubled mind. O, my Goo! thought he, have I lived see 1111.1! But a few liours since I found a father; and what is he? A villain! No. it cannot be; she was frightened with dream ing. Tlie next morning, however, nothing appeared visible in tlie countenances ed the dame or Matilda, and his father .seemed to be cheerful, talkative, and unreserved. Here, to keep pace with the incidents of our tale, and explain the circumstances of this chapter, it is necessary for our readers to pause a short time and take breath, while we prepare the next chapter, which will give the desired explanation, and begin to unfold some of Gordon's plans for the destruction of that domestic peace and happiness, which, until very recently, reigned in the family of hot: est Nicholas Butterfield and his dam3. The J)cvil' a opinion of Chancery. 'ih e Petersburg Intelligencer lias the ioi'owing with regard to the Handolph Will Case: The long-continued, always iegiunh.g never ending, complex, intricate and volumnious 'Randolph Will Cafe,' is now up for consideration before ihe superior court of this town. This case is very well illustrated by a story we once heard. It seems that 'once upon a time' a person, who was not satisfied w ith his lot in life, sought an interview with the Devil, for tlie purpose of ascertaining whether lie could not make an arrangement w hi h would improve his circumstances. II. s Satanic .Majesty was "every thing that was obliging, an el soon the f. The JJcii' iO'. i i'ir e- V-J - ban-am was struck: agro -w 1 for the term of ten Years, o all. thd full swing of this weriJ.He was to do precisely as lie l leae ; have what lie ideas-nJ, uiii c nlii , that at the end of the term, fie was to sur ! render himself as th: ------ .- - aoso me pro.' e r ' y eh of the Devil, to be dealt with as Dev il might please. Well, time passed on, the person employed himself to 'the top of his brent,' 'wearing purple and fine linen,' ecc. etc. until the sands of the first year had well bargain or at least a compromise, .v tic.i to his dismay, he found his friend utterly impracticable. Shylock-like lib claimed the penalty of 'the bond,' and turned a deaf ear to his client's entreaties. In despair the person sought a lawyer, and stated his case after which, he with his legal friend repaired to the quarters of the Devil, and made sundry propositions to him all of which were rejected. At last the lawyer, in a passion, shook his fist in the Devils face, and said to him, 'clu-footcd, horn-hcadtl, long tailed imp of darkness, I've got you now, if you don't accept the last proposition that I made to you. Til put you in Chancery, sir yes, sir I'll put you in Chancery, and then we'll Bee when you get out.' The Devil turned as white as a sheet, his tail became as limber as a rag, and in a trembling voice he said, 'rather tfian go iuto Chancery, sir, I'll give the man up; take him, my good sir and do what you please with him.' Those who know anything of the Randolph Will Case, will agree with us, that tho Devil acted like a prudent man. QUEER 1DEA3.
