Ob mourning heart, whj dost tbou cry '
With such a bitter moan
For eomfort, when, no comfort's fiig
And tbou art al! alone ?
Akna with bitter memories
Of fallen topes and broken ties.
No more thou'lt hear tbe roices sweet
In bafFJ childish mirth,.
Eo core tbe patter of tbe feet
Around tbe fireside hearth ;
No morn nor eventide shall hear
Th soft tones whisp'rirg llothcrdear.'
None call thee bj that dear name now
No little finders press
The wrinkles f;. i thy aching brow,
And with their sweet cares3
So softly charm away tie pain,
And brisj the joy and peace aain.
Alone, alone, with bleeding heirt,
And crushing, mad'uing pain,
And woe, whoce burning, fiery dart
Rend Cesh and soul in twain ;
With none to bear thy anguish moan
Thy bitter wail "alone 1 alone T'
Alone ! Ah no, I see a Form
Bowed down with many a grief,
That through the bitter blast and storm
Hastens to thy relief ;
He coafort brings, and joy, and peaea,
lie bids thy pang and pain to cease.
Oh Chkist ! Thoa mak'st the heary cross
A burden light to bear,
And Tbou dost from our bitterest loss
Make something sweet appear.
Oh heart, thou art not alone,
With whom cur dear Lrr.D makes Ilis home.

( Concluded.)
Suddenly a violent shock was felt send
ing a thrill through my heart, for I ex.
pected to see the whole house come falling
upon us. The cloud bad once more
closed up, and darkness again covered
the rapidly repeated flashes of lightning
only rendering it more impenetrable;
while tbe roaring of the wind, and the
crashing of 'the thunder, made up a hid
eous tu.nuh such as appalled the heart,
and almost annihilated the mind.
I have but a very dim recollection of
what afterward transpired, till I found
myself descending the ladder with Mr.
Gordon ; but I knew that before we closed
ihe trap the storm had resumed its empire
and the vibration of the walls told me
they could not stand1 long unless il abated.
When we had done this, tho-igh the
Bounds from above were every now and
then startling and appalling, we were in
comparative quietude, and were enabled
to relieve our dumb-sbow by the inter
change cf thoughts and feelings. To
hear the sound of our own voices and
communicate our thoughts by words,
after the overpowering din by which we
had for the last hour been encompassed,
was a comfort which words can not ex
press. The releaf to poor Mrs. Seuter
must have been immense, for now she
could hear herself speak, and listen to
her groans.
"The Lord preserve u?;" she exclaim
ed;" but this is awful. I shall die with
fright. If I had never left Aberdeen I
ehould never have Gracious powers,
tvhat's that? We shall all be swallowed
up!"
At this moment there was a report
and then a rolling crash over head,
which made the earth shake beneath us-
"That's the house gene," said Mr.
Gordon quietly. "I expected it would not
hold up long."
This was followed by a wail among
the negresses, and a young girl rose up.
exclaiming: "Eh, me Gad! I left my
piccauiny sieep : warra I do now! Tan
away der tan away let xne go fetch
him."
"Cough-body!' replied en old woman;
you ia mad, you lef senses wid you pic
caniny too. - Tan till." Garramighty take
care of piccaning now nobody else
can.
This, however, did not seem to afford
much comfort to the poor girl, who did
nothing. but sit and wail.
My mind had hitherto been so ocupied
that I had not time to take in the pecu
liarities of the scene by which we were
surrounded. Immured in a large, dark
vault, lit only by the feeble rays of two
candles and a lamp which hung from the
ceiling, there was just sufficient light to
give everything, except those within the
radius of these lights, a grotesque or dia
bohcal aspect. The negroes in the dis
tance, most or wnom were nuaaiea on
the floor, appeared the very persomfica
tioo ot spirits of darkness awaiting their
condemnation; one old negro, tall and
spectral, in the back ground, looking like
a benevolent demon gloating over their
fall.
During more than an hour we remained
in a slate of incertitade as to what was
going cn above us ; all we knew was that
the noise of ihe storm had sensibly dimin
ished. At last I could hold out no longer.
and mounting the ladder, I endeavored to
open the trap, that I might see what was
the state of things above ground. I undid
the latch, and essnyed to lift up the door :
but my strength was not sufficient to lift
il. I called up Mr. Gordon and one of
the negroes, but our united strength
failed to move a ; and at last, after re
peated efforts, we were faiatogive over,
for it become clear that the ruins of the
house had fallen over us, and till assis
tance could be obtained from above we
were prisoners. Our position was by no
means an en-;able one, for we had no
idea when, even if ever, we should be
released, and our slock of food was very
scanty. But this was not the worst evil
we had to encounter, for presently, as we
sat, a low mysterious . rumbling came
from the bowels of the earth. A few
minutes elapsed, and the noise increased
reached us the earth rose under our
feet the whole edifice reeled the walls
cracked and the ladder leading to the
trap split inio fragments, and felf among
the negroes, whose wild and despairing
cries filled the vault. It was a moment
cf intense agony. We all stood transfixed
with awe, for we expected nothing less
than that the earth was about to open
and swallow us up.
No sooner had the earthquake passed
&tn a new c an rer menaced us. Through
cae of the cracks in the wall water was
towicg rapidly, and the floor of the vault
was already covered some inches deep.
At first, neither Mrs. Seuter nor the
negroes seemed to comprehend this ; but
as the water rapidly increased, Mrs.
Seuier became alive to her peril.
"Why," the exclaimed, starting cp
"we shall all b9 drowned! Is there no
means of escape! Canyou think of no
way of extricating 'us!" ihe asked
of me.
"None whatever," I replied. "We
are in the hands of God ; He alone can
help us, if it is His good pleasure."
The old ladies countenance became
ashy pale, and then she threw up her
arm and slrieked : I'll can't die I
won't die! Will nc body save me? I'll
give anything I'll buy your freedom,
and make you rich " she continued, turn
ing to the negroes.
"Ese ma'am, we save you if we can ;
we no let buckra, ladies die if hel it ; but
nioer life as good as anybody's nr.d
bum-by, when de water come ober de
head, we no help ourselves ; we all be
like den we ell be free, and rich too,
de Lord be praise !" m
As the watejrose it was quite a study
to watch the faces of those about me
particularly of the negroes. Tba grad
ual transition from anxiety to fear, and
from ihat to the wildest despair, would
have been ludicrous in the extreme had
not our situation been so appalling.
While all round were crying and wail
ing, however, Mary and Grace were
perfectly quiet. Their courage did not
fail them for an instant, though the water
had now reached above their knees. In
the faces cf the girls might be read that
uncomplainingfortitude, which is a spec
ial characteristic of Anglo-tropical wo
men. The contrast between their calm
ness and the wild despair of Mrs. Seuter
and the negroes was very noticeable. It
was a time to try the courage of any one.
Mr. Gordon I knew was not wanting in
courage, but his fortitude seemed to
have forsaken him. His looks were
wild ; ihe muscles of his mouth twitched
and quivered, and now and theu be mut
tered something that I could not hear.
Inch by inch the water rose till it reach-
ea my waistcoat, une uy one uie uui
tons disappeared, as each minute our
enemy gained upon us. Still I was loth
to relinquish all hope. Meantime, not
a word had been uttered or an exclamation
made by Mr. Gordon or his daughters.
Mrs. Seuter had ceased her cries, for
she had persuaded a tall negro to hoist
her upon his shoulders, where she sat
grasping one of the candles with great
satisfaction. She was in a fool'si parad-
ies, for she did not remember that the
instinct of life was as strong in the negro
as in herself, and that the moment the
water rose high enough to endanger the
life of the negro he would in all proba
bility leave her to faie. We must
calmly await the approach of that
death which was slowly creeping upon
us. A moment of more awful supense
could not be contemplated. I have been
through many perils, but never anything
like this. A man may be brave when
his blood is hot, and the tide of battle
carries him on; but to stand still and
see the grim destroyer coming nearer
and nearer, minute by minute, inch by
iuch, requires a very different sort of
courage.
The water had by this time reached
almost to our shoulders and I felt my
fortitude giving way ; I wanted to call
aloud, to shriek for help; there was
something so horrible in the idea of being
thus drowned, like rats in a cellar, that
I recoiled from it. All this takes little
time to describe ; but the rise of the wa
ter was so slow that more than half an
hour had elapsed since it first entered
the vault. And now again comes the
rumbling of the earthquake, and the sick
ening, sensation of its shock. Theplace
shook the water was agitated, and
partially subdued. For a lime I could
not believe my eyes ; I expected to see
it rise again; but I watched it closely
and found, to my great joy, that it was
rapidly diminishing. It was certainly a
moment of intense relief, though our dan
ger was Dot all over. We were saved
from immediate death: but how were
we to be extricated from our living tomb !
how were we to make our situation known
to others !
For seveal hours we remained in this
state part of the time with the addi
tional horror of darkness, for the lights
had burned out, and we had no others to
replace them. I can't tell if I or any
one else slept, but I know that after a
time we all appeared in a state cf stupor,
for nut a wofd was uttered. At one time
I fancied my senses were leaving me.
for my brain was filled with mange
unearthly visions. From this I was
suddeny aroused by the most appalling
shrieks.
"What is it!" asked I. "What is the
matter?"
"The water coming again ! Don't
yon hear it? cried Mrs. Seuter.
I listened. There wa; a noise certain
ly, but it did not appear to be of water;
then it ceased. I felt about me; but
my senses were so numbed that I could
not tell if the watei was rising or fall
ing, or, indeed, if there was any water
at all I listened again, and nost certain
ly there were sounds, and that they
come from above was unmistakable. At
first they were indistinct, but each mo
ment they became plainer, and at' last
I could distinguish the blows of picks,
then the noise of shovels, and these at
last were mingle with the shouts of hu
man yoices. Help was truly at hand.
The sense of repiieve from such a sit
uation was more than the most stoical
could have borne with indifference, and
we all joined in the shouts of the negroes
to their comrads above. A few minutes
after this, to our inexpressible delight,
the trap opened, and a gleam of sun
light burst in upon us.
I shall not attempt to depict our feel
ings or the wild joy of the negroes buth
above and below: nor shall I be able to
give any correct notion cf the manner in
which Mrs. Seuter conducted herself, so
fraoctic was her joy. I only knew that
Mr. Gordon and his two daughters em
braced me in their excitement, and that
I thought the latter experience very
agreeable.
Our final deliverance was delayed for
some time for the want of a ladder.
While one was being procured the ne
groes and people above were very anx
ious to know if we were all safe.

from the trap, "you is s bad girl. You

It is'singular, but neverless true, that
amidst the wreck of the negro village
the child was fourd unhurt, and, in a
few minutes after we reached the ground,
was in the arms of its' mother. .
The first thing we did on our arrivel
at the surface was to look round to . see
the devastation which the hurricane had
produced.
The scene of distruotion which -baffles
description. The' whole face of the
country was, as it were, changed. It
poked as though a burning blast had
traversed the island, for, where yester
day evrything was green and luxuriant,
all was now bare and black. So marv
elous a transformation in so short time I
had never seen; vegetation, human habi
tations, and animal life had all vanished.
Paradise itself was a mass of ruins,
and the su?ar-works were trreatly dam
aged, but Mr. Gordon bore his loss with
great equanimity.

employed at a cove about a mile and a
half distant from the house, where Mr.
Gordon had a landing-place, and who,
although they had been exposed to the
full fury of the gale escaped-uninjured,
and at day break started lo look after
the safetyjof their master. We were
immured in the vault for more than
twenty-four hours the longest. day and
night by far, that Ican remember.

A couniryman walked into the'office
of a lawver one day, and began his ap
plication :
"Sir, I have come to get your advice
in a case that is giving me some trouble."
"Well, what's the matter f"
'Suppose, now," said the client, "that
a man had one spring of water on his
land, and his neighbor living flow should
build a dam across the creek "through
boih farms, and it was to back the water
up into the other man's spring, what
ought to be done i
"Sue him, sir, sue him, by all means,"
aid the lawyer, who always became
exctted m proportion to the aggravation
of his clients. "You can recover heavy
damages, sir, and the law will make
him pay well for it. Just give roe the
case, and I'll bring the . money .from
him."
"But stop," cried the terrified applicant
for legal advice. "It's I that have built
the dam, and it's neighbor Jones thai
owns the spring, and he threatens to sue
me."
The keen lawyer hesitated a moment
before he tacked his ship and kept on
"Ah ! well, sir, you say you built, a dam
across that creek. What sort of a dam
was it, sir ?"
"It was a mill-dtra,"
"A mill-dam for grinding grain, was
it?"
"Yes, it was just that."
"And it is a good neighborhood mill,
is it?''
"So it is sir, and you may'say'so."
"And all your nfighbors bring their
grain to be ground, do they ?"
"Yes, sir, all but Jones."
"Then it's a graet public convenience,
is it not ?'
"To be sure it is. I would not have
built it but for that. It iVso'far supperior
to any other mill, sir."
"And now," said the old lawyer, "you
lell me that Jones is complaining just
b 'cause ,the water from the dam hap
pens to put back into bis little spring
and he is now threatening to sue oj
Well, all I have to say is, let him sue
and he'll rue the day as sure as my name
is Barns."
"Yea say you hare confidence in Cook
em, the plaintiff, Mr. Smith t"
"Yes, sir."
"State to the court, if you please
what caused this feelinf of confidence ?'
"Why, you see, sir, there s ailers re

"Never mind whatyou thought tel

"Well, sir, one dayI"goes dowa to

A lady being invited to send in a toast
to be read at the anniversary celebration
of the Pilgrim Fathers, furnished the
following. It is spicy enough to flavor
half a dozen anniversary dinners :
