A notably honest fellow thou art truly, thou It cheat thy customers out of their very eyes, and then compound thy conscience with the priest.

The reluctant pedlar extended his hand which contained the pwket book, and which the robber seized with avidity, at the same time relaxing his hold of the ncdlar's arm, and wilhdrawing the weapon from his breast, Heglanccd through ■ he pocket book to ascertain whether Jt contained the money, at,the same time asking if that was all he had. The pedlar's eyes, glistened as ho answered in ihe negaiivo, and putting his hand in his breast, as if in aerreh of the rest, he forth a pistol—presented it—fired,—and the robber fell dead at his feet, pierced by the ball through-.the heart. Tin* pedlar repossessed himself of his pocket book, resumed his journey, andthat night ho slept at liab isia.

"Tut, tut, mm,*’ aaid lie, when he had sufficiently recovered from his fit of laughter, “do you tako mo for a ilref, that you talk thus of robbing! out upon thee, for a fool; I looked upon thy pocket book not without amazement I own, but it was to think that such a poverty stricken should possess so much wealth.

The pedlar gradually recovered his accustomed cipjaniiiiiiy: yet cron after (hat redoubtable itidinduril had disappeared, ho could not help casting around occasionally a furtive glance, to ascertain the certainly of the fact, "Soul of my father’s body” he said, “saw you ever the likel why methought he had my pouch already in his grasp, and so Ac thought too; I could see him counting, over and over all that it contained; now pray heaven, ho does not mean to rob mo.*’ “Tush, man,” replied one of. the bystanders, "saw you not his dress; be is one of thy bolters, and an honest man.”

And for his dress, I tell you man, I’ve seen more well dressed rogues hanged than would doto loll you! honesty indeed, why lie has Bravo, written on his forehead.” So saying, tho pedlar fixed himself for travelling, and was preparing to move, "Why ad fast my friend,” said the individual who had purchased the chain, "where is it you gol” "I must away, or I shall have night for a companion,” answered the pedlar, "which, to soy tho least is not a very pleasant mate to travel with, particularly when one crosses yon mountain,. which, as 1 hear, gives a hiding p'ace, to some of your Aonnf men; and where 1 go, it matters not that you should know; yet I care not whether you know orrnn,—1 shall steep to night at the village of Babliiia, some three leagues hence; so faro you welt my worthy sir*, fori must cross tho mountain.

THE PEDLAR-

now, my master?, you had beltermake lha beat of this good opportunity, or you will lose it; and though I say it myself, there is not a man in Sicily, who can sell you what you want, as cheap as 1 can; therefore be quick, or you lose such a chance as mayhap you may never hare again for I see tbo sun begins to hide himself behind yon hills, which is a sign for me to be up and moving.” ■ These words wero uttered by a man whose external appearance, sulliciently well betokened his calling. In person he was small and sparely made. His apparel was similar to that, worn by the lower class of the Italians, only considerably the worse lor wear. Hia aRe was about thirtyfive, or perhaps forty, not more. In his countenance there was a mixture of intelligence, natural shrewdness and good nature, blended togeher with a sort of ferocious fear (if it may bo go expressed) such as keeps an individual, ever afraid of any thing that is at all unusual, and yet always alort to expel whatever it maybe. He had before him a large open pack, containing articles of every description; from the more heavy stuffs for habiliments to the tighter and more trifling articles of jewelry. Ever and anon, as he sold some of his wares, his small grey eyes would twihkle with apparent delight, yet he always kept them scarchingly nvetted on his surrounding customers. ••See you this worthy signor," resumed he, addressing a young man, who'had been wistfully eyeing a gaudy .chain thatswungon the pedlar’s arm, ‘‘look what manner of a chain this is; by my true word a better chain than this is not, no, not in all 1 tally; it cost me at Home, no later than last saint’s day, twelve lit res good money; and now will I sell it for thirteen livres ten sols. What! you will not have itl Why look here now, do but try it on, and I warrant you will not for twice its value take it off again."—Wills that, he hung the chain around the youth’s neck “Sec that, now-i-iaid I not so; why man, you took tike Edtne great nobleman, or like a noble signor at the least; such a handsome youth could ccarce refuse so good a chance to look like the best, aye, the very best in the land." Tho young man.&ltll appeared to hesitate: “melhinks, my friend, you ask too much for thy chain,” ho said. Too muchl” reiterated the pedlar—“now the holy saints defend its! did ever mortal hear the like! why man, a chain tike this, you could not purchase again for twice the sum that now you can; well, an’ you will nut have it, I must return it to my pack and go. But ’ins a pity,” said he, "half refusingioreccive it again, *• ’tis a pity you should not have it; look you sir; you wil! give me thirteen livres, the chain is yours; you cannot now refuse to take it—indeed 1 sell it you so cheap, nut because I want the. money, but because I never saw a youth become a chain so well.” This last offer had the desired effect; the young man adjusted the chain, looked smilingly round upon his compeers, and drew forth his purse. .The pedlar also arranged his goods, and after exhorting those around him to be quick and purchase, he closed hi* pack and flung it round, so that it rested on his back. Among those who surrounded the pack, there was one individual whose appearance contrasted strongly with the others. He was tail and rather roousTIy built, but exceedingly well proportioned; his dress was somewhat superior to that worn by the others, and his countenance was peculiarly.striking. His complexion was of e dark olive, so usual among those who reside under the immediate influence of a tropical sun, xml his luxuriant hair hung in loose curls from Die broad bonnet, upon his elioiitder,- Yet there was something sinister in the expression of his countenance. His features were sharp and prom-inent-—his forehead narrow, but-very high—his

“Adieu, signor pedlar,” returned liia customers; “and take heed,” cried one, “you meet not with your honettyJriend; who it scemes has gone before you.” “An if I do/' muttered the pedlar between his ground teeth, turning somewhat pale, and quicknlng his pace, “an if I do, he must prove himself a man, before he pilfers me.” .With that, he drew from his brenst something that bore a very strong resemblance io the hamlleoF a pistol; he appeared to examine well the priming, and then returned ii-to its place. He had by this time arrived at the foot of the hill, whose easy slope he commenced ascending, casting alternately a hasty glance from one side to the other.

The sun had already set, and the dim twilight only remained tu guide the footsteps of a solitary traveller bending under a weary load, Who appeared to bo wending his way towards the little village of Uabtioia. The Individual appeared to have travelled far; for after looking carefully around to ascertain that no prying eye observe! him, he undid the strap that bound a large box or pack to his shoulder, and casing himself of his load, besought a temporary rest from toil, by seating himself on a large rock adjacent to the road. Tne pedlar, (tor such the reader will already have divined our traveller to be,) jftcr having roned himself fur a short time, resumed his burthen, and continued on his journey. He appeared to have surmounted his fear of meeting with the suspicious stranger; for at intervals he would amuse himself by humming in a low tone, catches, and parts of old songs. His being able to rid himself of his fear, was perhaps owing to hia having already accomplished more than half the distance of his journey, without meeting with any obstruction. He had now arrived a< that part of the road where on one side appeared a smooth level plain without a tree to obstruct the vision, and on the other, there rose perpendicularly, a continued mass of rock, that from the path appeared to have no termination, but h was not so; a short distance further onward, the rocks abruptly terminated, and descended as it were, to a level with theroad; at their base there grew a clump of trees, so thick, that their interwoven branches presented an impervious barrier to the sight, and even between their trunks the shade was so heavy and dark that the strictest scrutiny could penetrate but a short distance. From tho apparent security of this part of the road beseemed to apprehend not the slightest interruption; he drew forth his pocket book, (the ono-iyhich had so interested the worthy stranger) and'’with eager delight told and retold over its contents. He was now passing the clump of trees just described, and still wholly absorbed in the contemplation of hjs treasured wealth, when his meditations were suddenly disturbed by feeling: a rude haqd tightly grasp his arm, and the touch of a pistol at hi* breast. He looked up, and a figure stoo'd before him. This individual presented even a more formidable • appearance now than when standing with the group arouud the pedlar’s pa'ck. His was the same, but across his back was stung a carbine of considerable dimensions; round his waist ho wore a scarlet sash, and a bolt well filled with pistols; the handle of a stout stiletto too, peered from beneath its hiding place and gave a finish to his warlike equipment. ' SToor money* or your life,’* he vociferated to the astonished and terrified pedlar. The poor pedlar’s presence of mind entirely forsook him. “Holy saints defend os/’ he exclaim-
