During a visit t o some friemlH iu Charles- ton, while (in a leave of absence from H. 31. S. Diana, Lieutenant Howard Gr.xn- \-illo fell in love Avith a dark-eyed girl of eighteen named Helena lliol. She was an orphan, liviug at the houKO of her ixmle, Alfonso lUol, who wiiH an Aincricau by Lirth and a Spaniard by dewrent. For some years he had heen a saiUng- ninster al»eard an anue«l l'uit«'d State-? Bch<;o:ier. where, hu informed Granville, be hud often been promised pr».»motion, bat wa.^ still negU-cted, which he ascribed t<» his xlM^nt- llo ii>ntnn<M>«l Oi^vi'ml |>«.r«:nnR, who had not l>eeu so long in the na%7 a s he, and vet had obtained phices above liim. •*If 1 were like some men I would be re- venged,\ ho ad«led, bitterly. ' man should always do his doty, whelher promoted or not,\ said the BrUbh officer. A fortnight later the schooner saileci on t>nr\-eving etiKjdition off the African coitst. lieleim Itiol uccompnried her uncle. Although she niul (Jnujvillo were lovers, there was a singular coldness in her tan- ner when they parted. The lieutenant often thought of it a !ter- ward. and imagined that the sailing-m tster had prejudiced her against him. A month later Granville's ship wa« or- dered to cruise for a slaver, which, i was reported, had lately been noticed of' the coast of -\fricn. In due time, parsing the Cape rdes the English frigate stood on herway to the Gold Coa.>«t, in the vicinity of the outlaw craft lindJast l>een seen. On the starboard side of the npi>er the captain was one day walking t fro, and on tho larboard side stood tenant Granville, now and then ghi aloft. Suddenly, from the yonng lookot 'a tho masthead cume the cry of '*Siul O \Where awav?\ shouted Granville. \Itight ahead, sir! About five mile necessary, and at the sam e tim e mate- rially retluceH the <-ortt and thoiKJs-sibii- ity of th e k^s being left escaping,? w here jhe bnrner s are Ruhject to tho nse oi \careless and ignoranti»ersona.

''She looks suspicious, sir,\ he s id to the lieutenant, as ho passed the to him. Granville bad an eyv'Uke mhAwi'a; he could see foitlier than most men ^n the water. . \Ay ay, sir, a sn^^icious craft,\ Ke re- marked,'after a brief inspection. \It seem* to mo she bas a familiar look, nlthoagh I eannot recall where I have seen her before.\ \She is not very low in the water, sir,\ •aid the captain; \bnt I do not like hot looks for all Uiat.'* GifnTille said he thought she had some- thing the appearance of im armed craft. \These sir, are not the days of pirates,\ vejoined tho captain, smiling. \Wby do fon think she is armed?'* \I may have l>een mistaken, sir, at so great a distance,\ answered the lieutenant, \but when I looked through the glass, I fancied I saw a port closed.\ \Try her with the colors, quartermaster.\ \Ayi ay, sir.\ And up went the union jack even as the which a British officer can not overlook, \And. were it in your power, yon would make a prisoner of the nn«-le of Helena riioiv\ ''I would.\ \And mtirrv his niece afterward^ -W hs Helena with yon when you mu- tined? .Surelv she is not aboard?\ \No; for she would hot have ajiproved-of the mutiny \ ' ' \ \ * • from the^nitt-^*^ tdid not even* hint to her of mv desiA , hut. long before its eiecn- tion.'l left ht^t Monrovia.\ Drawing tV voung ofccer further aft, !>eyond heari^ot the sailors, h e continued, \Promise me tVat you will not l«tray the character of thi^ vessel to your^captam? \I will give no Isuch promise. \Then you and I rfwU l>Qth c o Jo^-n m the same coffin.\ \\Vhut do von mean?\ \I can Booii explain. Mv craft is not a swift sailor, and she con'd not get away fn>m vour frigate. \NVheii I sighted the ship I kiie\»~I team not escape in Ibat manner. Hut I hoiH'd that the naral app^-arance of my schooner, and the exchange of one or tw'o signals, would allay your captain's sus- picions, and that he would then keep away from me. AVten my vessel's name was cpiestioned, I feared' that all hope was gone. I hoisted my signal of 'Lost,' which I had readv for such an occasion, still thinking that that might jKis-dhly sat- isfv vour commander, When I t»erc€ived that 'it did not, I resolved to scuttle my craft and go down with all on board—slaves and all—sooner than fall into the hands of your naval people. I saw you coming, however, I recognized you, mid I nsolved that you alone should get aboard here, for I wanted to make my projwsition to you. Sow, nil. I have to say to yon is this; There, by the after sail, is a good life pre- per\er. and 1 still give yon a chance to save youiself bv changing your mind, and also to make my niece your wife. I'romise me that if I do not scuttle this craft, yon will, when vou return to yours, inform your cap- tain tliat von fonnd my vessel and pa|>ers pcrfecUy nght ond lawful. Promise that, and 1 will send yon aboard when this Ijnef snuall pas&cs in one of my boats. You can then wed with mv niece amt welcme , as soon as you have the opportunity, for 1 know von l>oth love each other, although I will own that I did not a t one time like the thouuht of weilding her t o a Britisher, and endeavored t o prejudice her against you. \I refuse t o make the promise yon ask, oven for the sake of winning j-our niwe, who is dearer to me than life! 1 a m an English- . and a s such I stUl repeat that I would WM«Cff«l PhiUatlirojdifts.
