Then Mam Gnr- lock packed np a little basket to takes to her husband, containing a dozen new-laid eggs, a loaf of iresh home-made bread, a piece of the birthday-cake, and, on the top of all,- a bunch of homely flowers, culled from the- little garden in front of the' cottage; then the fire was care- roily raked, the cottage door locked, the key be- ing deposited in a little nook under the thatch ; and Mam Gurlock and Jamie took their way, hand in b,and, upfronj'the Hollow in which the cottage wai built, over tlie short turf of the cliffs Tor a quarter of simile, and then down by a zigzag path to the sandy beach, where they found Miles Guriock's own little boat, the Sea- mew, moored high andjdry, just above the high- eat fringe of sea-weed which the eTibing tide had washed.

He greeted ilSm with a friend- ly nod as be passed her, and encountering Ja- mie next moment, stooped to hunt in his pock- ets, and, after some searching,' produced* there- from a penny, which that shy Vonng gentleman was not persuaded without difficulty to accept; but having once taken it, -was desirous of pro- ceeding borne without delay, that it might beat once exchanged for sweet-stuff ut a certain well known shop in the village. Another bug of the youngster, a cheery "good- bye, old loss " to Mam. and Miles Gurlock step- ped after Martin into the boat; a shove with the oar sent her into deep water, and then, un- der the long steady strokes of ALues, the Beamew sped swiftly on her way. , . The sun was juat dipping in the horizon aa the two men lett the Skevo Mhoil, and west- ward the tips of the waves were all touched with gold and rose color; but in the north, the low black bank of cloud, hung threateningly, like a dark mountain that had come np sud- denly from the sea; and the tide,'as it ran swift- ly out, began to wash and beat and eddy more fiercely, under the influence of the freshening breeze, against the ledges and sunken reefa of the rocks on which the light-house was built.— The trio who were left behind stood watching the receeding boat till it showed like a speck in the distance. Jumie, as soon as he got over his disappointment at not being taken ashore with his father, made up his mind that it would be very pleasant to spend'a night on, the Skeve Mhoil. He had manufactured WiiDy fleet of paper boats, whose evolutions he* watched with uuccajing interest as they Were tossed to and fro on the mimic w4v«s of kWllttle pool left by the tkro. l i h i d bsTO'QUltefort and Miles Gnrlock* fc the £tai«*i* might be back at any_r£omei*. jJaiiite, contWry" to his iistial' costonv IwdC fin* in jnO proton thi* «Y«iihg- sgainstfaotngpnt to bed, the temptaiioaoMeep* iogtohbmth^r^ his desire to kelp his mother and Abel com-- pany; not, indeed, that be meant to go to sleep when putlnto ^ebeKh—larjBrom i|; his secret intentiotfSwWglto e^Joy. ihe novelty of thepo- sjtion, and at the tame time remain salient hot wakeful spectator of all that went forward'in tho little room,.

Then she heard the noise of footsteps ascending outside, which came presently into the lower room; and then, after a pause, began to mount the iron staircase that led into the room in which she was now sitting. " The footsteps of two men —those of Miles and Abe),'' she said to herself, without turning her head to look, for she was just putting in the last stitches.

Astothe shape which the long-hoarded ven- geance of Black .Steve.would take with regard to herself, she could at'presentform no opinion; bbt thatifs end WOuld' be death in one form or another, she could hardly doubt.- If rumor hpbke truly, the train of blood lay already on the soul of Steve Davidson; and that both he and his Companion would hold her life cheai she had every reason to believe.

Nicholas and tbe" 1 ' Actor. The following anecdote is new, and .exhibits the late Emperor of Russia in a new character, as Well as records one. of the most happy es- capes from an'awkward position that wit and presence of minld might afford.. Some years ago .there was a very celebrated comic actor at St. Petersburgh named MartinofE He had most extraordinary powers of imitation, and was so great a favorite With the public as sometimes to ventjure interpolations of bis own, instead, of fol- lowing the advice of Hamlet to the .players,, to " speak no mora than is set downforthem." The Emperor alt the same time had - a ' high chamberlain, or personage filling a similar Of- fice, named Pojoffskv. Whether for fan or malice, Martinofjf, while performing, contrived to let off some puns against the great man which were warmly received by the audience. The consequence was, as soon as the play was over, the actor found himself in the custody of a guard of soldiers, who took him'to prison, where he was told he was to be confined for a fortu|ight> Not content with this, Pbloffsky either told the Emperor himselfior contrived that St should come to his ears that ^he- player had actually had, the presumption to indulge in imitations of his Imperial Majesty, Ob his liberation, Martinotfwentto.Conrtto pay his respects as usual, and the Emperor-told him of his accusation, which he denied. "Well," said toe Emperor,"If you never did, let..me., have, an imitation of myself now. "We know ' you can do so if! you choose." This Was an awkward and dangerous position for the poor actor:, who fell he should either get into trouble for either tailing short of, or overdoing the char- acter, Still the autocrat was determined; there was no escape. Suddenly a blight thought struck the player) and, drawing himself up,vhe assumed the exact manner and bearing of the Emperor, and, io a voice so like that it made every one present start, said: "Posks! give Martinoff [himseifj a thousand silver rubles!" " Stob." said the Emperor," I have, heard quite enough. The imitation is admirable, but the - entertainment promises to be too expednsive.—- Give him the rubles Poloffsky; and now mind, sir, Ut this be the lost time you ever dare to mimic me here or elswhere. It is, of course, • unnecessary to say Martinoff was too glad, tor pocket the money and escape so well. . .

Jears ago, and Jamfo Guriock's birtbdny. — amie wu% a flaxen haired, apple^heekod lad,

six summers old,' vvltli Btrorfg Btardv \ittib*, and a spirit like bis father's, fearless and bold He was in great glee this afternoon, having been allowed a hulf-liolidny from school in honor of the day; besides which, there was to boa splen-

80-wuen tea was over, and the enko duly dis­cussed, Jamie, having had his face ana1 hands well sc-rubed, was foduc'ted into his new coat, with strict injunctions to sit?still till his mother should be ready to start—a command which JamieV restless proclivities made it impossible tor him to obey to the letter. Then Mam Gnr­lock packed np a little basket to takes to her husband, containing a dozen new-laid eggs, a loaf of iresh home-made bread, a piece of the birthday-cake, and, on the top of all,- a bunch of homely flowers, culled from the- little garden in front of the' cottage; then the fire was care-roily raked, the cottage door locked, the key be­ing deposited in a little nook under the thatch ; and Mam Gurlock and Jamie took their way, hand in b,and, upfronj'the Hollow in which the cottage wai built, over tlie short turf of the cliffs Tor a quarter of simile, and then down by a zigzag path to the sandy beach, where they found Miles Guriock's own little boat, the Sea-mew, moored high andjdry, just above the high-eat fringe of sea-weed which the eTibing tide had washed. The boat wait quickly run down to the water, and Jamittjand ttw basket of eggg placed carefully in the itefh'; after" which. Mam Gorlock took her seat, and pushed out boldly from shore, allowing by the way the handled the oaw ihavlhe-thdroSghly understood "their use; and as> soon as the got into deep water, began to pull steadily in a straight line for the light-house, two mile* away, which stood out stem And gray 1rbm thi flanimgwhiok of cloud* in the Western tkyi > ?' •* T» . -,.. -t

" Thou talks t s i f f wasfoiigrtOs be a mouth away, when I shall be back io three hoars at the fartheresi. Thou must njnke up thy mind to spend, a, night on the Skeve Mb oil, and help Abel Rusbton to look after the lamps; tor since he met with bis accident t' other week, he's not been up to mucb, and hasn't righjly got the use of his arm yet; besides, thon knoweat what a tiresome chap he is at the best.of times, and he'd give anything rather than fee left alone1 oh the

J'nt J a m f e t l i f K e ^ & a ' W v his f e d f i S , and I'll poll both of you afehore early in the' morning; and now I'll go and fetch old Martin to the boat."

The arrangement was one With which Mam was only half satisfied, but shei did not incline to oppose her husband's wishes In the njatter.— She would haivo preferred goipe ashore) at once with htm and1 Martin % only tpe Qeaniew was hardly calcnlaled to carry more than two peo­ple, especially'as the wind WAS beginning to freshen ; and she knew how ptroDgly her hus­band disliked rowing the boat belonging to thft light-house, which lay mpored ready forKtisc,at a moment's notice, and which' would" halve held her and Jamie and the two men comfortably.— But Mam Gurlock was not a woman given to repining; so with one little sigh of regret that her " outing " had not been pr^duqtivo of quite so much pleasure as -she had (anticipated, she made up her miud to make the; best of qircttm-atances as they were. ,

Very cadaverous and ill looked Martin Git? bert, the head keeper, as he followed Miles Gur­lock down the rocks, to. the boat; a middle aged man with grizzled hair, tbatfjul to his shoul­ders, and with aquiline features that loojked al­most as keen and hard as if they had been carv­ed out of wood. He greeted ilSm with a friend­ly nod as be passed her, and encountering Ja­mie next moment, stooped to hunt in his pock­ets, and, after some searching,' produced* there­from a penny, which that shy Vonng gentleman was not persuaded without difficulty to accept; but having once taken it, -was desirous of pro­ceeding borne without delay, that it might beat once exchanged for sweet-stuff ut a certain well known shop in the village.

Another bug of the youngster, a cheery "good­bye, old loss " to Mam. and Miles Gurlock step­ped after Martin into the boat; a shove with the oar sent her into deep water, and then, un­der the long steady strokes of ALues, the Beamew sped swiftly on her way. , .

The sun was juat dipping in the horizon aa the two men lett the Skevo Mhoil, and west­ward the tips of the waves were all touched with gold and rose color; but in the north, the low black bank of cloud, hung threateningly, like a dark mountain that had come np sud­denly from the sea; and the tide,'as it ran swift­ly out, began to wash and beat and eddy more fiercely, under the influence of the freshening breeze, against the ledges and sunken reefa of the rocks on which the light-house was built.— The trio who were left behind stood watching the receeding boat till it showed like a speck in the distance. Jumie, as soon as he got over his disappointment at not being taken ashore with his father, made up his mind that it would be very pleasant to spend'a night on, the Skeve Mhoil. He had manufactured WiiDy fleet of paper boats, whose evolutions he* watched with uuccajing interest as they Were tossed to and fro on the mimic w4v«s of kWllttle pool left by the

Mam's grave face relaxed into a smile, and her needle shot more quickly through her work. She wanted to finish the coat before her hus­band got back -but she had still five minutes' work to do when she heard voices below, too far off for ber to recognize the tones. Then she heard the noise of footsteps ascending outside, which came presently into the lower room; and then, after a pause, began to mount the iron staircase that led into the room in which she was now sitting. " The footsteps of two men —those of Miles and Abe),'' she said to herself, without turning her head to look, for she was just putting in the last stitches. Did Miles think she had not heard him come up, that he stood there stock-still at the top of staircase, thinking, perhaps, to surprise her when she should turn round f Next moment saw the last „ stitch put in, and with an emphatic " There r* Mam stooped, and hither' thread to two, and then, with the coat held out at arm's-length, turned smilingly to confront her IIUB-band. . The coal dropped from her fingers, and with a low cry of terror, she started to her feet at the sight of two atrango faces, bent loweringly on ber. Next moment she recognixed one of them, and all the color died out of her face, and with one hand pressed on her heart, she shrank back a step or two, crying as she did so: "Steve' Davidson, what hast thou done with my hus­band?' . : ' .

A horrible misgiving took possession of Msm'S heart; these men bad murdered ber hus­band, and seized his boat, and were here for some vile purpose, of which as yet she was in ignorance. And Abel Rushton, too—what has become of him? has he shared a similar fate? As to the shape which the long-hoarded ven­geance of Black .Steve.would take with regard to herself, she could at'presentform no opinion; bbt thatifs end WOuld' be death in one form or another, she could hardly doubt.- If rumor hpbke truly, the train of blood lay already on the soul of Steve Davidson; and that both he and his Companion would hold her life cheai she had every reason to believe. Well, if Miles were really gone, it hardly mattered what be come of her. she thought.. Ah, yes; there was Jamie 1 for his sake she must strive hardly for her life—for his sake she must pray that Heaven's mercy might find for her some loop­hole of escape I

These bitter thoughts occupied Mam Gur­lock Bo deeply, that she scarcely heard the question which Hr. - Crls proceeded to put to her, and he was obliged to repeat it before she could folly comprehend its import.

" Where does Martin Gilbert keep his store of money?"

" I don't know," said Ham wearily, when asked for the second time.

" You Hel" iaid Mr. Oris fiercely. "Don't you know that, three months ago, old Gilbert bad a legacy of three'hundred pounds left him, and that he issuch a mtserj and puts so little faith in the safety4 of hanks, that he always keeps the money .by him;wherever he may be - o n aboreduring'his hoiidoy times, and in the ^hVh'buse^hrahtW M'duty?

•jflie Emperor. Nicholas and tbe" 1 ' A c t o r .

The following anecdote is new, and .exhibits the late Emperor of Russia in a new character, as Well as records one. of the most happy es­capes from an'awkward position that wit and presence of minld might afford.. Some years ago .there was a very celebrated comic actor at St. Petersburgh named MartinofE He had most extraordinary powers of imitation, and was so great a favorite With the public as sometimes to ventjure interpolations of bis own, instead, of fol­lowing the advice of Hamlet to the .players,, to " speak no mora than is set down for them." The Emperor alt the same time had - a ' high chamberlain, or personage filling a similar Of­fice, named Pojoffskv. Whether for fan or malice, Martinofjf, while performing, contrived to let off some puns against the great man which were warmly received by the audience. The consequence was, as soon as the play was over, the actor found himself in the custody of a guard of soldiers, who took him'to prison, where he was told he was to be confined for a fortu|ight> Not content with this, Pbloffsky either told the Emperor himselfior contrived that St should come to his ears that ^he- player had actually had, the presumption to indulge in imitations of his Imperial Majesty,

Ob his liberation, Martinotfwentto.Conrtto pay his respects as usual, and the Emperor-told him of his accusation, which he denied. "Well," said toe Emperor,"If you never did, let..me., have, an imitation of myself now. "We know ' you can do so if! you choose." This Was an awkward and dangerous position for the poor actor:, who fell he should either get into trouble for either tailing short of, or overdoing the char­acter, Still the autocrat was determined; there was no escape. Suddenly a blight thought struck the player) and, drawing himself up,vhe assumed the exact manner and bearing o f the Emperor, and, io a voice so like that it made every one present start, said: "Posks! give Martinoff [himseifj a thousand silver rubles!" " Stob." said the Emperor," I have, heard quite enough. The imitation is admirable, but the -entertainment promises to be too expednsive.—-Give him the rubles Poloffsky; and now mind, sir, Ut this be the lost time you ever dare to mimic me here or elswhere. It is, of course, • unnecessary to say Martinoff was too glad, tor pocket the money and escape so well. . .
