RICHARD VVARGRAVE arrived in Bos- tou harbor one fine morning in the ship Porpus, from South America, having successfully completed his first voyage to sea before the must. Richard Was a good-lmiknrg lyoung man, about twenty-two years lof age, of a generous disposition, well educated, and although some- l what frank, free and upon in his tid- di'ess, and caring little for the con- ventionalitlcs of society, he was one of those men we often meet with in every rank of life, who are gentlemen by instinct, as Falstaff lwas a coward. ' Without, being addicted to any vices, Richard VVtirgrztve, owing lto an exuberance of :irii'nal Spirits, had acquired a character of being wild and unsteady, and had caused anxiety to his parents, by illulllfesl‘ log a i'cptiguniice to Settle down :quietly and happily in ii pleasant country village, until he had secn more of the world and studied hu-t man nature in other lands. He had made his voyage in a ship belonging to a friend of his father, by way of ion experiment, and With his father’s lcorisetit, who flattered liitrisclf with the belief that one voyage before the mast would effectually ‘ kill the sailor,’ and that his son, on his re- turn, would be sensible of his folly, and become submissive to parental advice and authority. ' But on revisiting his native land, after an absence of runny months, Richard was still undetermined in [regard to his future career. He could not immediately decide whe- t-trcr to eitibi‘uCc tlic cXciting, and, to his bold spirit, atti‘ztcthe occupa- tion of a mariner. with a prospect of speedy promotion, as the busi- ness of his life, or settle down pet‘- mtiticntly and at once, in the plea- born, and join his father in a respec- table and, profitable, business, but of a mnrcquict and hum-drum charac- ter than that of a sailor. - While he Was revolving in his mind the _wisest course to pursue, and make arrangements for visiting his home, liavmg. requested the ..§Cil[.)lain ,of the Porpus to keep a .berth open for him,"as in all likeli- hood tic should conclude to join him in another voyage, he received a letter from his father which upset all his calculations, and alarmed ' as follows :~-' sant, thriving town iti which lie was. him exceedingly. The letter "was tightly ~ movements. ‘ Mclroth, c1528. ‘ Dunn DICK,-â€"-I see by the pa- pers that die Porpus has arrived safe in Boston liaroor- _ You, must have got sick of the seadcug since, and, l .snrcercly trust. have grown 'stcady air-'1 reasonable.

On assisting her on board the“ steamboat at New London, and in procuring proper acdommodutious. . and in cheering her spirits during' the dense fog which prevailed on the following morning, and threatened tp prolong the passage to an inde- finite period, the gallant young sailor had abundant opportunities to make himscli useful, and deserving of her sweetest smiles, which Wore gratefully dispensed. On landing in New York in the afternoon, he insisted on seeing the bewitching domscl COUVGVL‘d to the residence of her aunt. in apopalou‘s and re- spectable part of the City. He took leave of her at the door, after hav- ing obtained, without much pressing, licr gracious permission to call shortly and inquire after her health. Richard gladly availed liimselfof this permission, 't'ii,id,calletl at Mrs. the following day, looked exceedingly knowing, and said, ‘ Miss Florence is at home.’ The young lady received her vi- sitor with a smile of welcome and a degree of cordia’ity which proved that site retriembcrcd and was grate- ful for his services during ll’le‘leIF- trey to New York. It is no Wonder that he forgot the object of his Visit to that great city, which was tojoiu the first strip he could find bound on a foreign voyage, and thus by a ct'mnirdly flight escape from the nnrrritigc House. His views had undergone a change. He no longer wisucd to to sea, and would gladly have acceded to his father’s wrslics to become a votary of [IV-- men, providing he could be at li- berty to select the partner to whom he should be called upon to pledge his vows. g" 7 Richard called chcral times on Miss Florence. and while every inter-view revealed some new and charming trait in her character, and served to strengthen the Chain which drew him to llel‘ presence, he oxulicd in the belief that his vi- siis‘ were not considered impcrtincnt or unwarranted. He Was always welcomed as a valued friend, and treated. with as much consideration and kindness as he, a stranger, whose character and posrtion in so- (gietv were Unknown, had a right to expecL ‘ Ono memorable day, as Richard VVargrave, seated in Mrs. Long‘s ford’s parlor, was engaged in con- versation with the bright being whose chains he felt proud to wear,- she intimated a Wish to learn somea thing of his situation and prospecls He then determined, with proitiincrit trait in his character, to bring the matter to a crisis, or to hasten that event by assuming the name, character and condition to which he was justly entitled. He began by acknowledging him- self :m lmpostcr. His name was not Edward Dalrymple. Miss Florence changed color. and was greatly distressed. Richard has» lcticd to assure her that he had 'not changed his name in consequence of . any dishonorable conduct on his :part, but to avoid a marriage pref jcctcd by his parents with ft girl whom he could newer love ; whose mind was 'uncultivntcd. whose tn- lcuts were unrefined, and whose features were rcpulsively homely. For himself. he said with a tone and manor which he. intended to be particularly significant, he had long since tleteriiiiiicd to marry onlv a woman he could truly love. He acknowledged that he had deceived her also in regard to his place of residence. He did not belong to Boston. His father resided at some distance from the illet‘erptHlS, in a town called Mclroth, and was a man of wealth and respectabilitv.â€"â€" Richard paused abruptly on seeing Miss Florence exhibit symptoms of agitation. She seemed deeply in: ‘ Well,’ said she. With some. impatience, - proceed! what is your real name ?’ “ Richard Wtirgrave.’ .
