True it was that a measure of anxiety still hampfri-d my spirits, but as compared with what we had undergone, we were at heart as light as the filmy marcs' tails floating athwart the blue above. And tven now, while tragedy might be lurking near, there was an element of l lie ridiculous in our appearances, too marked not to be noticed by each of us. The girl, with a l.aturnJ eare of herself, was the most pre He was unconscious. rentable of the three and looked to be but .a I'rwjier youth; but 'twas Ames who gave color to the ship's present company, fte had retainetl his wig to make his hat fit, lie said and what with his fresh lace, white hair, and clothes still mud fit :n tied from his fall into the ditch the night before, he was a n.ght to behold. As for myself, I appeared to be in the last stage of dilapidation. A i-.ur days' growth of dark beard, my clothing cloth-ing burned, rain-soaked and ragged, my Jinen a siioek to the eye, my queue ribbon-less, ribbon-less, and my hair streaming about my shoulders, shoul-ders, I made a picture fit to repel the girl. Two days before, her likes or dislikes would liet have caused me a second's thought, but now some'jow my very size seemed to me ob-trusive, ob-trusive, and, coupled with my outward state, shamed me into an avoidance of her .close obsei vance. Hut no change eould I make in her manner v hen necessity brought us together. Her mile was as bright ay, brighter than the dazzling sea about us, her voice as free from n. rvous tremulousness, and her manner as -M af-contained as though she was treading a .ballroom floor instead of the urimy, slowly .heaving deck of a fugitive schooner. Onre .lie hail laid her hand on mine as 1 stood at rthe wheel, and seemed to be about to speak to me, giving a quick upward glance of her dark eye, though lowering her gaze asquick-Jy; asquick-Jy; but as ber brother hove ait just then, she turned away and went below to the .cabin, which by this had been given over .to her exclusive use. 1 minded me that it was I to whom she ifirst brought an allowance of salt beef ami khip's bread, nnd let her brother wait. .Somehow the fact warmed me, and then 1 apostrophized myself for a fool for having it nought ot it. tiow she regarded her ci-.devant ci-.devant lover 1 had easily seen in the way-she way-she turned her head ami made a wide detour de-tour when necessity compelled her to pass him where he sprawled on the deck, his re-pulsiveness re-pulsiveness as much, if not more marked tnan biscompanion's, owing to the tarnished richness of his once glittering uniform. The prisoners had so far recovered as to be maudlin, maud-lin, and in their restlessness had rolled into the scuppers. The sight of them was an evil easily remedied, and, as air and light were no longer imperative to their well- U-ing, 1 had taken them into the forecastle and laid them each in a bunk, that they m:ght finish off the fumes of liquor without .o'Teo&e to decent eyes. Once onto blue water we held a council tc determine our destination. It was safcr, J thought, to land my passengers on the Jersey coast and by myself try to work un-r!cr un-r!cr short sail to New London, where was consigned the schooner's cargo. Hut neither brother nor sister would hear of such a move. Washington having withdrawn to the north, there could be no telling the ttte of southern Jersey, especially as it had been overrun with bands of marauders kuown as Sandhillers," and. there being no safe objective for the fugitives, to land would be but beginning anew a search for lefuge. Without money (though I would make a shift to remedy the tack of that), vithout friends And with a price on their heads, change to the pine wilderness of the western coast would be scarce an improvement improve-ment over the deck of the Phantom, outlawed out-lawed though she was. Such was their argument. argu-ment. As for myself, nothing would have now tempted me to desert the vessel. By holding hold-ing course well south, clinging only to the loom of the lxng Island coast as a guide (for 1 had no sure compass), I might run across a Yankee privateer or find protection protec-tion in a possible French cruiser. At this moment 1 had recovered all 1 bad lost and mere. The schooner with its cargo was intact; in-tact; the gold was still in the cabin; I had been enriched by several roll of money from Clinton (though I had Dot yet counted the coin, onJy guessing at its value by its crag on my pocket), while below were Louusbury and a prisoner of rank. More than these. 1 had the knowledge of a move to be made toward the relief cf Newport by eo. . m tobk. lT. film himm' mnyraiml UU the British, and here 1 was honest with myself as 1 thus compiled my gains I had two friends, one of whom, oath or no oath, should come to no harm from mankind while 1 hud an arm to interpose. 1 had suggested the Jersey shore as a matter mat-ter of duty. I had heard their determination determina-tion to abide with me and share ii'y fortune, for-tune, be it high or low, with something of a feeling that put a new power into me, and, I fancy, a new light in my eye (had they ( been looking closely), riot caused by the; dazzle of the sun. Our destination lay, then, i first for the Vineyard. There I would place this now homeless girl in care of my mother ' and sister, who were probably mourning for iie as lout, then to New London to deliver prisoners and cargo to the proper authorities, authori-ties, and after that well, 1 would wait and tee. Ay, I would wait and see. One need not plan one's life for months ahead. Somehow there was a brilliant spot in the future which I Ciired neither to define or get behind be-hind a Will-o'-the-wisp both tangible and elusive which I could not analyze, being content with the glow it spread over my mental picture. The radiance lay on the ancient island farm. Tt fell on the ancient house and livened its homely interior. It v tnt abroad over familiar fields, dusky woodlands and svamis, and gave a color to the stretches of lonely beach. It made life more than living, and changed the dross of existence into something very like gold. 1 knew I was dreaming dreams and building build-ing air castles as I stood my trick at the wheel and hove it over to meet the low-run-n-ng swell and forestall the vessel's yaw. hut what picture equals that of the brain? In progressive stages I mentally doubled Montauk, raised Blockhouse island, sunk it, and aft w the "mist -'of. Norman's LaSd, "'and then swept around the great western clay cliff of the Vineyard, and was at home. Kvei y detail was real, yet fairer than reality. My some queer change in me 1 looked less or glorv now than I had the month before. War was well enough if it must be: glory was a prize easily gotten, but there was nothing to equal ptaee. I had tamed wonderfully; nothing to equal t,he delights of home and domesticity. 1 had acquitted myself before my fellows, and for a time would rest op my honors. In short, I had by then gotten into a weak kneed mood, the like of which I'Very man knows at gome moment of his bfe'i, hirmless rtiough, possibly, and for the ijoytwnt of which he can thank God for wirhhtjhiing the -knowledge of what the next b&ur has in storey By tKtsit was about Jour in the afternoon as I fii-'iire I from the Tieight of the sun, which, though clear, shone -from a sky that had become flaked as thongh.a fine-drawn Bmoke had settled over it, Tbough the wind hung stiil from the wet-Ci.t whs lighter, and the schooner dragged through fh',- water ss if it was traveling uphill. 1 ts. aAgish-ness aAgish-ness I knew was due somewhat to the-t-liar-acter of its cargo, which was the deadest -of dead weights, but more to the marine growth which had collected on her bottom during her long anchorage, and which eould easily tie seen streaming below like a long and ragged green beard. Beyond the dull gurgle of the cutwater and an occasional sob in our wake, not a sound broke the intense stillness of the afternoon. Ames was forward, for-ward, guaidin? the forecastle hatch, and his sister had gone below. From the prisoners who had come at last to a realizing sense of their position) nothing had been heard beyond a demand for water, which had been given to them, and air, ocean, and schooner, v. ith all on board, had quieted into what Lade fair to become a dead calm. We had seen a number of sail during the day, but notlwng hail as yet come hull above the horizon, even these showing sxmth and wist mere specks of light against the pearl of the sky line. I thanked (!od for the scare given the British by the advent of the French fleet, and knew that each cable's length we made to the east brought us so i.iuch nearer safety. The day was waning; night would soon be on us, and if the wind held, under cover of darkness we would be secure in our flight, and possibly the morrow's mor-row's sun might rise and show me the gorgeous gor-geous reds and yellows of Gay Head bluff with its cap of green turf, a sign that we were iu home waters. Even as my heart warmed at the thought, I cast my eye landward over the larboard quarter and saw coming out of the haze which had all but blotted out the Long Island coast a topsail schooner Ivearing r utheast or directly toward the Phantom. She was some five or six miles away, but e ven at that distance I could sre by her slope that she bad found a fresh slant of wind, and that from her forward cloths tc the tip of her main boom every rag was drawing, her progress being mightily helped by the square sail set on her forelopmast. There was no knowing what she was, but the fact that any craft had gotten so close without having been nvnrked, gave me a start, and I put the helm down that tlie jib and staysails miht draw, which would at the same time bring the stranger over our taffrail. A landlubber could have seen she was no Frenchman, for the Gaul had a style of cut, rake and carry, all his own, betides be-tides which they were not given to sailing tinall craft in these waters. She might be a privateer, in which case all would be well, but if not, and 1 feared my own intuition, then my air castles were doomed to ruin, my borrowed happiness was but the swan stng of hope, my dream that of a condemned con-demned man. The jibing of the foresail and my hail to Ames brought Miss King to the deck. Her brother joined us, and we three stood looking look-ing at the oncoming vessel which had appeared ap-peared like a cloud to mar the brightness of a perfect day. There was no need to explain ex-plain the menace lying beneath that bunch of swollen canvas. By the faces of the two I saw they realized it was a plain case of chase, the only doubt being whether it would prove for good or evil. I would have given the gold in my pocket for a good glass with which to make her out, but, as that was impossible, it took me but a few seconds to come to the conclusion that our only hope ;and that a tlint.cce) was to nuke the thaw a stern one and give the poor Phantom, with her foul bottom, all the speed possible. Putting the wheel in charge of Ames, with no loss of words I went forward, clambered np tlu fore shrcude and managed alone to unfurl the square sail, settling the bracing and the sheet and tack on my return to the e'eck. In the present light air the pull of the canvas was small, but it was something, and I knew the stranger would mark the increase of sail and read as plainly as print that we wanted nothing of her. As time went, we saying little or nothing betwixt us, I marked our follower's growth as she drew on. Little by bttleout came the details of her canvas, and, as I picked point after point, there dawned on me the almost certainty that our pursuer was none other than the Sprite, the last vessel of his majesty's maj-esty's flotilla I cared to meet. From the 4 "k of the Ajax I had been informed of JL, Sprite's absence on patrol J C 1111! 1 I il- Tiia her, only st particular craft since had been sneaking un- coast, us after the thrown, a broad lighten ur canvas, 1 ben. wit n a keen nose lor nylhing less than a three-decker, she had piled on her clothes the sooner to come by about what business a trader had to sail the king's sea without being under convoy. 1 dared not unfold my suspicions, but the girl, with the eye of a hawk and the instinct in-stinct of a woman, saved the necessity. Turning to me after a long and searching look at our pursuer, she said: "Capt. Thorndyke, that vessel looks like Jhe one that took me from Philadelphia tq New York. I hardly know why 1 think so, but I fear me 'tis the same." "Ay," I answered, hoarsely, "I have that ftar, and God help us if they overhaul us, as they are like to do, barring a miracle! Have ou aught to offer, Ames V said I, addressing address-ing her brother, whose face had taken on a look of hardness the like of which I had marked at the Dove when he was posing as an old man. "Nay, friend," he returned, suddenly falling fall-ing into the Quaker style of speech, and v-ithout taking his eyes from the vessel astern "nay, friend, I have but a light knowledge of sea possibilities. To run as fiee be running means to be beaten in the race. Thee has a head for tricks. Are thee lost? If so, there is but one thing for thee und me." And turning his eyes to mine, he made a quick gesture toward the water, which motion I thought was unobserved by the girl. But 1 was wrong in my surmise. "Has it come to this then?" she ejaculated ejacu-lated with sudden terror in face and voice. "Am 1 to be left alone and at the mercy of those yonder? Beverly! brother! you will not commit suicide and leave me without a protector! Donald Thorndyke," she. continued, con-tinued, her terror giving place to an im-periousness im-periousness royal in its effect, "you have sworn not to desert me! Are you nerveless at last? Nay, 1 know you too well. I ask your pardon," she faltered with a bend of her head and a rapid change to humility; "'I am wrong. Better give back to the Almighty Al-mighty direct the life He gave you rather ;han have those yonder, if enemies they be, l..Ue the giving into their merciless hands. I was wrong. I let the woman in me speak' lirst. Your burden is greater than mine!M And with this she placed both hands to hy face and sobbed aloud.

The consideration con-sideration of those resolutions came up first in the afternoon session, Saturday, and developed into quite a lively discussion, disclosing a division of opinion in regard to the matter. While all members of the Presbytery were unanimously in favor of standing stand-ing by and affirming the Manti resolutions, a great many felt that they had done all that was necessary, as the stand of the Presbytery was well understood.

The Presbytery then went into executive session and the following resolutions was a result of their :labors: In view of the important developments since our action one year ago. the presbytery presby-tery of Utah puts forth the following statement: state-ment: First This presbytery condemns and protests pro-tests against substituting such mob violence as has been recently reported in the public press in place of facts and just arguments against the the erroneous theories and teachings of the Mormon representatives. Jfthe teachings and practices of Mormon-ism Mormon-ism are contrary to the laws of any of the states, such unlawful teachings and practices should be dealt with justly and fairly by the state courts. Second We recognize that there is a strong minority among the Mormon people who deprecate with us the re-establishment of the former-conditions in Utah, and who greatly regret that the pledges made to the national government have not been kept. We congratulate those who compose this minority, and urge them to stand by their convictions until American principles shall triumph in Utah. Third The developments since our action at Manti have confirmed, before the world, the truth of our charges, that polygamous cohabitation is lu ing re-established throughout through-out the state. The births of polygamous children have continued, and the most solemn pledges to the government of the United States have been deliberately violated in the election of the well known polygamist, 11. H. Roberts, to the national congress. Fourth We deem it our duty, as Christians and citizens of the United States, to protest, against allowing the said B. H. Roberts to retain his seat in congress, not because of his religious or political views, out because ne is living in polygamous cohabitation with at least three women. Fifth In view of this monstrous action in electing a noiviramist to assist in makinz the laws for a Christian nation, and in view of the fact that the laws of the United States are not operative in dealing with polygamy in the slates, we heartily endorse the action of the Presbyterian assembly at Minneapolis in May, 18SJU. in asking for the expulsion of B. H. Roberts from consfoss. and "for a cons-tl. tutional amendment against polygamy and polygamous cohabitation. 'uDea copy Wir.i.im R PlMPIIIM. Stated Clerk of the Presbytery of Utah.
