The 3,000 people present were not confined to one single barge,-but two barges were engaged aud both of them received the people, who swayed to and fro. Neither of them was in any way crowded. On the decks of both of the barges there was music, and to the strains of four orchestras the young folks “tripped the light fantastic toe’? Passing the views of the city and of Hoboken, enjoying the sight of Wash- ington Heights and looking at and being awed by tue appearance of the Palisades, with the otier amusements on board, was more than sufficient. But the excitement attained its height when, by the ume that Hastings was reached, a boat in the rear Was caliing tor a stop and blowing its whistie, ‘The attention of the whole party on board of the two barges was directed to the black nondescript in the rear, It was at last ascertained thatthe black boat was the S. Morris, having on board the ‘‘sintrachw? Irom Newark, and aiso the employés of the tirm of Schalk Brothers. When this was known cheers alter cheers went up from bota boats, aud by the time that ail three of them landed is was quickly seen that the Newarkers and the “Liederkranz” were on very intimate terms, Having arrived on une grounds of Dudiey’s Grove, Mr. Wiliam Steimway, in a very feeling speech, ad- dressed the guests, and to this reception Mr. Her maua Schalk responded quite felicitously. usiv aud singing were the order of the day, and ening came about and the time was reached Le bi to revurn to the city several nousands of Camess lanterns were it up, abd it must be con- Tessed that tne feet of boats, as it came dowa te Hudsou with its lights and flags and lanterns and fireworks, presented an appearance seldom seca around this city, Air, Theodore Guensel, the deco- racor of the boats and the master of ilimminat the committee, of Which Mr. Classen and Air By ne Were the principala, deserve especial mention ror (he completeness of ali the arrangeinents.

The morning papers gave an account ta their Sun- day editions of a love affair between policeman Henry Thomas and Bridget Devit, a servant in a boarding house on Wabash avenue. Thomas is, or Was, a married man, and the father of three chil. dren. It is asserted that he fell ia love with Bridget While patrolling his beat in her vicinity, and after making protestations of love to her promised to inarry her, first having represented that he was a single man. Bridget aiscovered the domestic rela- tions of her lover and commenced asuit for breach of promise, laying her damages at $10,000, No writ had been served on Thomas, he having kept out or the Sheriff's deputy’s way. But the affuir has been brought to a sad and sud- den termination. The dead body of Thomas was found floating im the lake basin, near the foot of Twelith street, at eight o'clock yesterday morning, by policeman Mans, No fatal marks of violence were observed upon the body, a slight wound only appearing on the skull, which might have been caused by the waves. When found tt was drifung In towards the chore, being about 200 feet therefrom. After being taken from the water, the remains began to decompose rapidly, The body was dressed in the regular police uniform, the star belng upon the breast, bearing the number, forty-two. The re- volver and club were missing, but a watch which deceased carried, was found in one of his pockets. Thomas is a sinall man, abOut thirty-Ave years old, and of German descent. He resided at No, 19 Hastings street, Two boots were found on the stand, bear the spot where the body was found, GEHERAL NI A meteorological socieiy has been formed in Cin- cinnat.

Your father, may husband; where is he? Somewhere under the sea waves, wrecked on adesert island, or languishing on a hostile shore? Jv is five years since he left us on that fatal voyage to China.

He was a lad of seventeen, an orphan, the nephew and ward of Colonel Nichols. Bright and gay and handsome, Alien Bell was also impetuous, ardent and intelligent—one of those noble, manly boys who mature early into grand and nobie men. Boy as he was, he loved Amy Lester with a pure and chival- rous love, which bade fair to deepen fn time into the great love of his hie, He was the bearer of a letter from his uncle to Mrs. Lester, and having delivered it he strolled with Amy down the wide garden watks into the cool shadows of a grove at the bottom of the garden. “Pye been expecting you this good while, Ally,’ said Amy, with charming frankness.

For a minute the youthful lovers stood at the gar- den gate, towards which they had slowly walked, and here they parted soverly—Ally to go dowa to the brig where le nad engaged to meei his uncle, and Amy to return to her mother, She found Mrs. Lester, the open letter in her lap, silent and motionless as a statue, ber atutude that of profound despair, “What is it, mother? cried Amy, in wild alarm, springing to her side, Mrs. Lester looked at her daughter with a woe- stricken face, “O, Amy! she cried, turning to that brave, childish heart;for strength and comfort, ‘Colonel Nichols writes me that we are beggars!

And, Amy, he says he knows your father to be dead, and he offers himselfto me for the last time, He reminds me of my til health, of your youth and helplessness.

A DESPERATE STRUGGLE FOR LIB: Before A Bell reached the brig lying at the whari, his uncle, Colonel Nichols, had been there and arranged wilh the Captain, who went by the name of Huey, to carry Ally oif to China, for which service the Colonel promised to give the Captain the brig and $10,000 in case the boy never came back. Hiley was a murderer, Whose real naine was prouls, and Colonel Nichols knew it. And Colonel Nichols had robbed Mrs, Lester and now wante rob his nephew and have him murdered, and Hii knew that and resolved that Ally Bell saould never see Norfolk agaln. “Where 1s the lad?” he asked, as he and Colone) Nichols finished drinking success to their nefarious schemes, to which the Colonel replied: He should be here at this very moment. Ah, L ear his step on deck now! Here tie comes?” Even as he spoke Ally Bell came hurrying into the cabin, his face dushed with pleasureable ex ment. “Lam just in time to see you off, Captain Hiley,” he guid, not noticing the guilty looks o/ the couspira- tora. ‘The wind is fair and the crew apxious, A good voyage to you, Captain, Gring me some rare shelig when you return, They are for a litue girl’s cabinet, and must be pretty j" “Aye, aye, Mr. Allen,” responded the Captain, heartily. “Didn't you see my collection of si sin yonder stateroom?’ No? You are weicome to your Choice of them ali, sir.’” He advanced, ana Nung open the state room door. Ally bent forward and ioowe! in. With a quick thrust Hiley pushed him into thejiktve room and hurrlediy locked the door, With an exuitant smile Colonel Nichols sald adleu and went ashore. The next minute the hurried tramping of feet was blended with the songs of the stout seamen, as the brig moved slowly from the wiarf towards the sea, Ally’s first thought, oa fading himself shat up in Captain Hiley’s stateroom, was that the two mea were joking—merely intending to scare him a lictie and then let him out, but he soon discovered that the Quickstep—the brig was 80 named—had left her what and was standing dowa ihe Hlizabeti iver towards the ocean, { hed wpon him | ? he cried, leaping to his feet. “Hiley is taking me to sea with him! Captain Sitley !'' he shouted, pounding of tae Wall, “open tie door this minute! Let me out or it will be bad for you!” No reply was made to hitu—no aticntion paid to his cries. He saw that he was fast. For a moment he was stunned by the knowledge Of his situation, ‘Then he drew up his slight, boyish dgure proudly, his eyes flashing detiance, “The thiug for me to do,’ he mused, “is to help myself, A boy who can’t figs his own way will never bé a man |"? 5 Drawing from hia pocket a mateh, of which ue usually Carried a supply, be lighted the candie in its box at one end of the stateroom. “{ gee,” he mentally commenced, looking around in the light tius ruraished, “Here's a whole dray load of boxes and bundies, And here's & non, too,” added Ally, ‘a smalione,” which is expected, no doubt, to bring a big price from tose simple nas tives in the Sout Sea. “J can use this thing,’ thought the boy, with kindling eyes. ‘i Lave plealy of powder i iny pocket!? He had bought this powder t before he cam abroad of the brig, for the experiments he lad promised to show Amy that very evening. Without more ado, Aliy set at work loading and firing the little caunon as rapidly as posible, siisii- ing the door and calling out for everybody ‘to, keep out of the Way. ‘ilic captain and crew were with fear, a3 there was a large quantity of po in the stateroom, and Hie prospect was that would be blown to atoms.

Crouching out of sight in the bottom of tne boat, he began rowing shorewards—Dbui softly, for he wad still near the brig aud the bight was so calm he seared his enemies would hear him, ‘There was only too much occasion, ag it proved, for this caution, ‘The boat had not been gone two minutes from the brig when Captain Hiley, wishing to go ashore to see Colonel Nichols, made his way aft and discover- ing Its disappearance at once sent a couple of men after it in another boat. Ally, seeing that he must again take to the water, took the oars along with him, and went drifting sea+ ward, with nothing but a pair of oara to support dim, ‘The night had now fully set in and the tide ran fast. Cramped and chilled by his long continuance in the water, the boy was whirled along, growing weaker every mometit; but just as hope was at its ebb he sudaenly beheld a sail behind him, rapidly ap- proaching under the force of a freshening breeze. “A brig, certain !” he groaned, after a long 100k at the nearing cloud of cauvas. “It must be old Hiley’s! The wind having come again, he’s of for the Pacttic Ocean |"? He regarded the brig as it came nearer, asking himself if he should hall her. “Let her be what she may,’ he muttered, ‘irlend or foe, I must hail her! My strength is used up! I shall soon slip off from these oars and drown! For- tunately the brig 1s coming straight towards me, I will hatlher 1)? He waited til the brig was near him, and then carried his resolve into execution, His feeble call was heard and answered, the brig hove to, a boat was lowered, and he was taken aboar«l the stranger. The boy had only strengtu enough to leara that the brig was not Hiiey’s, and then he fainted, CHAPTER IIT, MORE VILLAINY, Captain Hiley, verily believing that Ally was drowned, went ashore to inform Colonel Nichols of the fact. Hefound the Colonel just coming from Mrs, Lester’s cottage, where he had gone an hour before and stunned Aimy by informing her that Ally Bell, her lover aud hero, was being carried of to sea in the Quickstep, aud’that she Would never see him again. The Colonel heard Hiley’s story.about Ally’s disap- pearance with breathless mterest, as they walked along the beach; after which the two villains con- gratulated themselves upon the boy’s being thus a ea hear out of thelr path, While discussing the matter they heard tiie sound of oars, and soon saw a boat approaching U hove Opposite a cottage belonging to an old retired satior named Nicholas Collins, which was situated at the foot of Mrs, Lesier’s garden, Ip the boat was aman, and along with him was a female, sobbing convul- sively. Colonel Nichols, with surprise and alarm, recognized the voice of the weeper as that of Amy - Lester, She and ner companion left the boat and entered the cottage, from the windews of which a light soon shone. Colonel Nichols and Captatu Hiley crept beneath a window, to spy and listen. ‘They soon learned that Collins had rowed Amy of to the brig in search of Ally, and that she had there heard of his attempt to escape aud his cousequent deata by drowning. Amy was vehement in her Genunciations of Colo- nel Nichols, and declared that if Ally was really dead she would raise the whole country against mis uncie who had compassed nia death. On attempting to rise to go home Amy found she was too weak to walk, and sent Collins Jor her mother to come to her. As soon as the old sailor left the cottage Colonel Nichols proposed to Hile; that he should carry Amy off instead of Ally, an leave her ov @ plantation of his on the coast, down by Cape Henry, so as to silence her dangerous tongue and aiso to give hima hold on her mother, The Captain agreed to this, aud they eutered the cottage, coming upon Amy so suddenly tnat, in her weak state, she was 80 Completely overcome that she fainted away. io ‘So much the better,” said Nichols, stooping and gathering her in his arms, ‘Now lead tite way to your boat, Hiley. On our way you mst overset Collins’ boat, to make him think she did 1 hersell in & Wild mood.” He hurrled out of the cottage, bearing his frail burden. Hiley fullowed hastily, aud the two made their way to the spot where Collins’ boat lay. It was but the work of a moment for Hiley to push oif the little craft and overset 1t. “There, they'll think the girl got wild with grief and was drowned in an attempt to search for Ally aaa P said the Colonel, exultantly, tossing Amy's white apron upon the beach. “That apron will fix the matter beyond a doubt! The wind 1s rising, Hiley; you had betier take advantage of 1!" ‘the two hurried to the waiting boat. fitley laid the unconscious Amy in the bottom, and then seized the oars and rowed rapidly towards the brig.
