The captain made no reply, but his coun- tenance wore a strange shade of doubt mad suspicion, as be gazed upon the tortured features of the supercargo. That night the broad Atlantic rolled its ceaseless waves over another of the ships company. Mr. Russell bed breathed his last. Cap( Wallack and Nal Faulkner had the last deg watch. Roland had gone down into the cabin, "while the foremast band+, with the exception of the man at the wheel, were forward. The captain paced the quarter deck in a thoughtful, troubled mood, ever and eros casting his eye to- ward the cabin companion way, where his first mate had dissappeared a short time be- fore, and then turned his gaze W the fore- castle where the men were congregated. - Faulkner was by the wheel and several times as the captain approaebed him in his walks, did he start to join him, but a tearful suspicion kept him back, and until the watch was changed neither be nor Wallack spoke a word, save such as related to the mar agement of tbe ship. At 8 o'clock Roland came on deck for the first watch. Tbe ship was upon the starboard tack, close hauled upon the wind, and joist able to stand upon her course. As capt. \Wallack gave up the deck, be requested the male, if the wind should hired round to the eastward any, to call him. - Roland replied kindly that be would, bet beneath the half -curling smile that rested upon his features, the captain thought be could detect a lurking spirit of evil. tiro het not a hsadow of his doubt manifest itself up- on his countenance, but with a bland frank- ness he wished his mate a pleasant watch, and then went below. ' Faulkner,' said the captain, as he tore - ed a furtive glance at the bead of the lad- der,let not a word escape you, unless it be of common place affairs. until we have tamed into our berths; but keep your wea- ther eye open and follow my mo,mrurts.' Faulkner dud not mart at this req.eet, Pa- the same thoughts seemed to be passing in his own mind. ' Let's see,' said the captaia ia a tone loud enough to he beard on deck, ' I mast run over my reckoning before I tura in, Mt. Faulkner just hand see that chart, if you please.' As Wallaek spoke he reached aver into his berth and took out his pistols, which be proceeded carefully to load, taking care the while that ba back was turned towerde the companion -way. Fadkner followed lou example, and ere long the e.aodles were et- tingslished, and the two men retired, but not however, to sleep. 'Faulkner•; whispered the eapte°,'we're in a anugtt, for I have rears 1% believe that there is mutiny on board. Gwynn sed Russell have both been poisoned.'
