I fancied that the last days had urrived, thst the end of time was at hand; that the spirits of darkness, let loose upon the earth, were hovering around me; forms, too hideous for description, a thousand times blacker than the darkness which clouded my bodily vision. were dlitting before me, gexulting in my sufferings, anu making a eruel mockery of my woe; aod that from this state of misery there was no hope of escaping, until the great last conflagration, when r should share the terrible fate that awaits the whole creation. Oh, how I wished that that hour was come! At length the fury of the storm abated, the snow ceased to fall, the howling of the wind was silenced. I felt the ice which had closed up my eyes begin t melt, and ina few win- utes more my eight wa» again restored. The sudden change, from the dark forebo- dings of despair to the animating influence of hope, was like an electric shock to my frame. 1 felt iny blood, which till now seemed con- gealed, rushing with now bh through every vein, and restoring to my half-frozen limbs their lost animation. Roused to exertion by the prospect of deliv- erance, I endeavored to put my horse in mo- tion; but oh! what pain, what agony, did that first effort cost me! Had I been stretched upon the rack I could not have.experienced more excrutiating suf- fering; but the hope of preservation enabled tie to persevere, and I at length succeeded in urging my steed into motion. The clouds, which heretofore veiled the face of heaven, had vanished, and the dim trem- bling raysof the few of its wyriad lamps which were visible enlightened the dretriness of the scone, and, combined with the light emitted from the snow, which covered the surface of the savage wilderness, enabled me once more Although I was wholly at a lore in which VENING STAR. which it was necessary | * perti- j ‘on I ought to proceed, I determined to ering ouward, in the hope that [ should y i. 24 my way back to the high road. , 2.8 acted upon this resolution ére “recived, at Some distance before a ligat, which, fro.™ en "taleed te prooced from the babitetion me human b ‘ing.

A loud peal of laughter instantly broke upon my ear; I got upon my feet, and, looking round, perceived by the light of a lamp which was burning upon alow bench, that l was in a spaciou: vault the floor of which was nearly covered with human limbe, and beside me lay the headless trunk of aman who appeared to have been but recently immolated, as the blood still flowed freely from his maugled remains. 1 had scarcely time to look on the a palling Spectacle, ere & door in one corner of the vault ed, and the landlord i his two as- fociates, each armed with a cutlass entered.

Immediately the vault wes filled with soldiers, but they wore too late to secure the assassins, who, on the first sound of danger, i made their eseape by some secret outlet. The object of their search, however, lay before them in the mangled carcaseIhave be- fore mentioned, which was resngnised as be- ing the body of their comrade who, it appeared, had deserted from his regiment, been tracked thither. Yhe shriek which alarmed the murderers and pt: my life, proceeded from the land- lady. who in attempting to prevent the en- trance of the soldiers into the vault, had been slightly wounded by a bayonet diaving been released from my bonds, I was, along with the woman, cenveyed to S—, where we underwent an examination before a bench of magistrates.
