MISCELLANEOUS. THE fcOLDKS &FF( ILAHOa'. 'Twn early in the month of M.itvli, oflli.it eel YSrafeJ yeati ik IfioiisanT'cilirliiiii.Jrca find fif teen, that the pier at Dover was one al'teVuoon crowded with spectators anxiously awaiting tin' fate nfa Miiiiij era II, '-endemjoriiijr lo make port during a brisk Bipir,'l. One moment it w.is seen on lhe billows' ibbje, the next, lost tu "ilit, cn pnlphej in llio ocpati-irough. The storm, whirli vontimicd thrvmoh the d:i v, had done considerable, ilamape to (he shipping in the roads ; Slid t'loiieh jfs firry v,is partially spent, llie experiment of mak ing tlu' harbor-entrance, ftvapimr the fcand-slioal on eilh"r side. ns dccinoJ extremely hazardous, the f.A imn.iu- iit. Among fillicrs stood Gotlieb Schenek, of Dutch rxlraction, who.se father had hciticalhcd his thrif ty heir a snug, well cMablr;.hcd, mercantile busi ness in Ijondon.: Gotlieb's capacity was turrc'V. .his views hounded, 'disposition.' niggardly ; but. as the business wan aTrcudy inade'lo his hands, and 1h was moreover a (iloddihgv saving young man, there was every chance of his retaining the la ther's valiiablo co:mcc:ions. . . Mr. Schenek had rome to Dover, expressly to place hi oliarjo of'thc. captain off he p.iekct certain packages consisted to friends in CUai.-, and awaited the boat's return to receive acknowledgment of cafe delivery, and orders respecting further operations. As the little vessel; throuoh the dexterous umn Byenient of the helmsman, shot into the. harbor, 'having escaped the ?cylla and Charybdis ofthe port, she v as reeeived with loud cheering, which was ansuert'd by the riiuuin;: up her hare mast lh Bourbon color.;.; The revenue ollicer spvaiir; forward -expeeling a .priao ; the others followed to welcome the hardy daring of the crew. -Gotlieb, xvho knew sho was some hours in advance of the mail-packet, was'ppeculat'mjr whether his Calias friends had availed themselves of thn- prior oppor tunity, and strode onward to meet the cr,vtain. He started, on beholding a passenger emerge from the .'Hii-wny with portmanteau and bont-c'o.ik. t wns a face he recognised, and was undoubtedly -asnviated with uncomfortable reflections, for the worthy Gotlieb immediately commenced a retreat. Second thoughts, however, proved more valorous, and he stpped, turned, and awaited the captain's leisnro. . Meanwhile the object of his dread essay ed to climb tho pier-ladder, no easy task, as the xessel danced beneath him, and lie made several vain efforts ere he gained firm footing.. " t is Henry Mellisb, suro enoujh," abUlMvui?. 'edsjlr. Schenek-" what can tiring hint across the channel in a fishing-boat, during a gala lilts this ? Perhaps ) brings news which will make his for time; and if lie does, then farewell my hope for Jlary Ashley! Hut 1 will sec 1 will learn!" Mr. Mellish, a genteel young man, about twenty-five, or a year or two more, eyed Schenek more intensely than benignly, and returned his low bow by only a slight, formal noil, without relaxing a 'muscle.-. Gotlicb, though repulsed, was bent on a closer acquaintance, but it was necessary he bhould not lose sight of the captain. Staying one moment only, to inquire of the sailor carrying Hel lish portmanteau, what hotel they were bound to, lie ran to the master' of the smack, was made hap py by having his questions concerning the passen ger answered, and the receipt, in addition, of sev eral letters from Calais correspondents, in direct contravention of the post-office regulations. Re turning to the town, he was ushered into the pre sence of Henry Hellish just as the custom-house 'olficer,vhose suspicions were awakened by the young gentleman's unusual mode of passage, was -taking leave, having examined the portmanteau -Hihl satisfied his notions of duty. -Gotlieb, as we have said, was of narrow eapa- city, but, like most merchants of Datch extraction, ssw clearly tho path of self-interest, and never de viated from it. lie Was not altogether destitute of speculative views, and had been heard to pride himself on superior cunning, though, with thoso 'who knew him best, the boasts gained no credit. "Mr. Mellish," said he, "I hardly expect we can 'be friends, yet thero is no reason why we should lis enemies. We may be rivals, honorable rivals. If wealth is on iny side, you have other advanta gestut come ! let us dine together. I long to hear the nows of the continent, and perhaps," he added with an attempt at a smile, "my home-intel ligence may not b unacceptable." The challenge was frank and open, and sooth 'to say, there -we're many matters which Mellish would gladly learn, though much rather through another channel. The invitation was declined, however, as be had ordered horses intending to .proceed direct to London. The announcement made Gotlieb still more eager ,to 'kojep his V.vu.1 company; he nad been informed hy tlie captain ot the fishing craft, that "Sir. Mellish paid two thousand francs to induce the crew to put to sea, spito of the gale, no doubt with the view of hav ing some hours' start of the mail. This very hh era! offer had created a sensation in Calais; but 'the precise object of the gentleman's haste, or the character of the news lie bore, was known only to himself. lie staid but one hour in the French ,nort en route from Paris. Mr. Schenek was driv to desperation. -Intense' love of gain spurred :-him to master the other's secret, at whatever cost, by whatever means attainable. Love ol Mary Ashly, or desire for her wealth, prompted hiin to thwart a rival beloved by the damsel, though not countenanced by bet father. Should young Mel lish grew ficb, tha objection of Mr. Ashley would disappear. " It is very fortunate! happened to he in Dover," muttered Gotlieb to himself, as ho retired from the Hotel, after liavinrj succeeded in inducing Henry to afford hiin a seat in the imsl-chaise, his ow- bus iness in Dover being already setile J. A cmwd was draws arenndihe door of the II 'cl, attracted by report of Mellish's haidy feat in crossing tho channel, and the two rivals were borne rapidly sway by four horses mid the shouts of the populace. As Henry remained silent the first few miles of the journey, we avail ourselves of the op portunity to acquaint the reader briefly with his -history. As confidential clerk to Mr? Ashley, a Xoudou merchant, he had gained his esteem, was admitted to his private circle, and won, ere he was liimsoll aware, the affections of tin merchant's euly daughter, though closely lieged by the at tentions of Mr. Schenek. To Mellish the latter was no stranger, as they met olten on business matters in the ceimting-houso. (uitlieb'srattioi) s'httin;" systeu of account", his linw illingncss to pay. and "fnrjuenl disputes Concerning charges al lowed by commercial usage, rendered hira an un pleasant man to do business with. Dislike, mutu ally engendered by bickerings, changed to hatred when l hey found themselves rivals. Schenek look occacioti to inform Mr. Ashley of his clerk's pre tensions. An explanation ensued, which ended in mutual doekirations of love and fidelity between the lovers, and the clerk being instantly delega- teil to Paris, as assistant to a commercial house of some standing, to which he was warmly recom mended by the London merchant, who condescen ded to inform the young man, that he might ever reckon on hiin as a friend ; that personal';' he had no objection to him as son-in-law1 ; but that with out some corresponding advantages of wealth and station, an alliance w ith his family was impossible The lair city-belle vowed constancy to Mellish, so tiotlich .sped none the faster for his rival's re moval, as the lady's father, tlionghnnsiuus to dis courage an intimacy deemed disadvantageous, was not disposed to control his daughter's affections.. Correspondence was', forbidden ; but the lovers tti and means to make known to each other how af fairs progressed, and Mellish learned to his sorrow, that .Mr.'Shcuck grow daily more a favorite with A.-li!ey, who esteemed him a wealthy, quiet, prac ticable young merchant, 'though deficient, perhaps, in persona! jjra'ce, tnd brightness of Intellect.. Af fairs had remained in this stale about a year, when Henry Mellish was seen, as we have already de tailed, hurrying to London on the wings of cxpec tai.! pan! fort.i::e. ..Between Duver and Cante rbury, Schenek tried every ma meuvre, both open and covert, to extract the secret of IL-nry's rapid journey, but in.vain. -To entice him from reserve, he spika of Mary Ashley described the new villa at Va!t!nmstbw, the bouse-warninj at which Mr. Ashley presided to welcome the gentlemen, the subsequent ball at to London inqieralive, more especially as it was which Mary did the honors to all which Mellish very apparent he su ill-red. from underhand practi listewd with interest, willing to forget, in the pleas-.' cos of a false friend, who had by such means mas ure afforded by tlie recital, dislike of, the ungener-i tered his secret, and stole away with t!i post- ous narrator. It was the influence of this i partially favorable impression, that he accepted corpplacently Gotlieb's proposal ofsnpping at Can terbury. There was but little chance of being foiled iti procuring horses to prosecute the journey to the metropolis, as couriers, he said, were con stantly travelling night and day in the busy politi cal cia in .which they lived ; but the chance of ob taining a meal between Canterbury and Loudon was very slight during the night hours. :. At Canterbury,' then, they flopped-, and whilst supper was preparing, Gotlieb Schenek, who had been pondering and cogitating how to frustrate his rival's hopes, betook himself to a cniet walk in the streets. 'vTwo thousand francs for a few hours' start of the Calais packet !" exclaimed Gotlieb. Mystery and lAWurily magnifies objects. Me!-, lish's future fortune was enhaneed a hundred-fold in the imagination of this descendant of Dutch men, though seen only dimly through the perils incurred in attaining it. To risk the channel du ring such a sea why even a mail-packet would not put out Whilst such weather lasted I ..The qui et, worthy Gotlieb saw the ruiii of his hopes if Mellish succeeded he should lose Ma ry he should lose her father's weallh ! He stopped unconscious ly in front of a chemist's shop, almost the only place open at that time of night, his eye attracted by the glare within. AVliiht gazing at the win dow, cunning suggested a scheme to ruin the oth er's building hopes. Presuming that his rival was about to act on the London markets on the strength of early intelligence of recent political events, if he could but prevent him reaching the metropolis till noon on the morrow, the regular Calais and Dover mail would by that lime make the news generally. known, and spoil Mellish's plans. His schemo daring, dishonorable , and would perhaps make him amenable to law ; but then the risk was not great, compared to the contingency of losing the damsel and her wealth ! So Gotlieb went in, and having some knowledge of drugs as an arti cle of commerce, purchased a small quantity of mareotie pevvder, which he knew how to ask for, and by what naino, so as to avoid suspicion It was, of course, no surprise to Mr. Schenek, ' when his couipauion (supper dispatched, followed , by a few glasses of wine,) after parrying, with the tact of a man of business, further inquiries re specting his mission, suddenly relaxed his cheer ful tone, grew drowsy, fell fast asleep. Gotlieb immediately spilled the remainder of tho wine in the fire-place, that it might appear his friend had partaken deeply of the beverage, and was about calling lor assistance to carry Mellish to bed, when it suddenly occurred he might improve lus scheme and with it, his fortunes. The wine em billed enhanced courage, inflamed his imagination 'tis but the first step which costs reflection and conscientious doubt. Why should he not follow up success by peeping into his rival's papers it would doubtless furnish a hint hy which money could be made 1 Aware of the potency of the powder, he had no fear of the other awaking, and searching carefully and rtealthly, found in tlie pocket-book a letter of instructions from the Paris house to Mr. Ashley, recommending if the bearer, Mr. Mollii.li, reached Loadou in season, to make j extensive stock-jobbing opsrations for time, on strength of tho news therein set forth, and vouch ed for as accurate the profits to bo equally shar ed between the two houses and Mr. Mellibli, who had shown great eagerness to be bearer ofthe news, and promised to embark within one hoar of arrival at Calais, and even, as he asserted in his zeal, cross the channel alone, if no one were fouud hardy enough to venture wilh him. "Yes.'" said Gotlieb, carefully replacing llie letter, "Mary Ashley is cause of the 'great ea gerness,' as she has been cause of my being en gaged in this rather dirty work but is it not all fair? I. was her suitor, before cur young spark dared address Iter, and he would have cut rus out but it is all right now !" ; ' Waiters were summoned, to whom it Was ex plained by Schenek, that his friend, having already imbibed too much wineatDover.liad unfortunately persisted in finishing the carouse, till he was in an unfit state to travel further, and must therefore re main till the morrow at the inn. Gotlieb assisted in carrying up stairs, undressing, und uepubiiing in bed, the snpjioscd inebriated stiff 'rer, and to do I away with possible chance of suspicion, sealed up Mcllieh's purse and po;k l loik in an envelope, which he committed to the landlord's charge, at the same time writing a short note to be d dirsred to bis friend next morning, when he awoke to con sciousness and sobriety. A few minutes after, (iotlieb was rattling on towards London with fresh horses, ami in Mellish's post-chaise, gloating over his intended golden speculation. Such occurrences, as tin one just witnessed by the landlord, were not (infrequent, particularly a mong noval oflierrshuig absent on foreign station, too much disposed to excesses of duty. . But tho rapidity of Mellish's defeat and prostration excited somi! laughter and conversation in the little Im parl r, and it was deemed prudent by tho landlord and landlady, to pay a visit to their guest, ere they j retired to rest. j A death-like pallor overspread the face of Mel'- ish he looked more like oiib in a tmice, than a man subdued by vinous influence. The landlord i in alarm sent for a siirgeoii", who pronounced tho patient certainly not intoxicated, " Am I in Mr... Ashley's house," lie exclaimed wildly, " has he had the letter ?" ..The .surgeon rerpminendcd repose, but Mellish ! was too excited to pay attention to the request, and insisted on an 'immediate explanation where he was in whose house and how be came under llie surgeon's hands. When 'satisfied on these pnints by the landlord, coin ictioi) of Scbenek's vil lain' immediately flashed on his mind he tore o- pcii the e:Vehipe, found llie doc unients, though dis- arranged, (-ale -but then the time which had clap- s.-tllmg-day,. parted with three-fourths of his ca pi se! his secret known to another, an 'enemy ijr- ' t il, was but too happy that his agent had prevent norant what uses would be made of the .'discovery j ed the humiliation of bis being declared a defaiill- lie could have cried through.- sheer vexation hi ! or, by commencing so actively counter-operations, nting so duped ! Thank heaven ! it was otily two o'clock, and by desperate excrli'.-jis he -might 'yet reach London by business-hours ! Priofly explain ing tliat'.lie was bearer of important niercaiilile intelligence which rendered -instantly proceeding chaise, to a seat in which he had '.threugh kind- j ness invited him, he requested as a favor that the landlord would procure a fresh chaise and horses, that he might start , in pursuit. Our host sympa thising with his distress, used bis best exertions, I and Mellish. though enfeebled, w is again on the high-road toLolidon, very grateful for the" consid erate attention wj'h'li induced the -.landlord and his wife to intrude into his chamber. Th. clock lad struck ten, when Mellish hur riedly, entered the comiting-linuse of .Mr: Ashley, having dismissod the chaise at the end of the street to avoid publicity. The merchant was surprised, rather disagreeably so, on beholding his quondam clerk ; but the latter had no lime tor explanation, and was content to place the letter of it; !ruclions in his hands. Ashely changed color, as he said "This may proves rare hit, Henry, but tin French mail must be already in town!" " Cannot, before noon, sir," replied Mellish, "if the packet sailed at turn of tide perhaps not then, unless the squall abated." . Ashley retired to his desk, spent five minutes in deli tieration, and then putting his inn within Mel lish's the twain walked to St. Bartholomew's laiu', and passing up a broad, paved alley, pushed open a pair of revolving doors, and stood with n the crowd at Stock-Exchange.: Above the wide forest of heads close to the door, was perched a man in , pulpit. Ashley approached the pl:t, whispered two words. " Henry Jenkins I" exclaimed llie man in a won derfully loud, yet clear, distinct, unstrained, Labla-che-llke tone, which vibrated over (he sea of heads to the uttermost walls, and was heard everywhere, in spite of .the coming, ling din of Babe!. After the laps? of a few seconds, Henry Jenkins, the bro ker, emerged from the crowd, and listened to Mr. Ashley's communication. He begged hard to know the nature of the. intelligence which his client acted on, as ha felt inclined, ho said, in such cases to operate for. himself as well as for bis friends. Ash ley demurred, declared he forfeited trust by impar ting the secret. "I shonld not have pressed ynu so closely ,"' re marked the broker, " but would at once have sold extensively on your account and mine, trusting to your well-known sagacity, but it is very strange, there have been hirge buyri this morning, which makes tne doubt the solidity of your proposed op eration, Hearing this, Ashley who ever acted decisively. ! withdrew with the broker, and showed him thecor- respondence. " Many thanks ! quite satisfied much obliged for this good turn ;" exclaimed Mr. Jenkins, hur rying back to the Exchange, " will call on you after I have sold the whole amount." So saying, he run back, as quickly as his legs could curry him. Lot us now Tetnni to Gotlieb, who sped quickly through the night, like a thief, exulting in the suc cess of a dishonorable action, it is true, he had misgivings, that his character would suffer severe ly, particularly with Mr. IVshlcy, who, though en terprisiug, and far above suspicion himself, would not contitenance dereliction from the right path in others, but then the many thousands lie should make to-morrow! "At the lea(, he calculated to in crease liis capital tmfold and allluence -covors such a multitude of sins! Kvcu should he stand no 'r. tter with Mary Ashley and her father', a dan gerous rival was removed, for when Henry Mellish awoke loa late breakfast at Canterbury ,the French mail would be midway between that city and Ixm don his golden hopes frustrated, himself reduced to destitutijn by his exasperated princii!s. Ono thought had Gotlieb to mako Mr. Ashley partaer and confident of hit speculation, but even his ob tuse intellect perceived it could not be effected without confessing his own dishonor. Ere the Exchango opened, Mr. Schenek flew to his broker, and requested him to buy slock on time bargain to an enoinious ex'.ca! As be was known to bo wealthy, fully capable of paying the differ ence, should the markets turn sgaiust him hy next sctlUng-day, tho broker did not hesitate, and as is often the casein siichcircustanc.es, whore it is be lieved the party acts on prior intelligence, opera ted largly f,,r hinisejf. Sehenck's broker, after a while, found the slock eas to be procured, even a shade or so lower than lite opening price. Soon after eleven o'cWh or fore the Frei mail had itrnveil, or, at least, its contents made known the great autocrat of the money market, from his den iN'ew-t'eurt, St, Switliins, came sailing majwstical- ly into the market, selling right and leftj knocking j T down the price an eighth per cent every hundred I : thousand ho contracted to deliver.' Schenck's bre- ker flew in great alarm to his principle) dem: iplel demanded i to know on what grounds he acted, as he had him self committed his own means to a very great ex tmt and the leviathan, whoso intelligence was seldom incorrect, was acting precisely contrary to their tactics he was selling, whilst they were buy-, ing. "It is thU." faltered out Gotlieb, " AVie vit hiifrsctiik jfivm V.lb'1 and landed in the South uf F.auv. " lixl il.-aven, sir exclaimed the frantic bro- ker, are you an idiot ? V ill not such an event throw all Kurnpe into convulsions, knock down the ( prices of everytbh.g except gunpowder and steel I I am ruined, sir ! Why did you not confide the news to me f Schenek was stupificd, could make no reply, felt his knees tremble benentb him and at , length found tongue to implore. the broker to do the best he could to get him out of the sera po. The maddened stock- broker, scarcely deigning to listen, flung himself away, and rHsbingbaek to the market, commenced selling as fast as he could find buyers, iutluTeront tJ the continual'y tailing price. But the warlike news soon was made public, and the market fell with fearful raiiijitv. The result of that day's transactions as a heavy lossto Schcnek's broker : a much heavier loss to his principal. Gotlieb, on reducing the siiin of the difference within compass of his moans. , "...";'. Mr. Ashley and his friends, at Paris, were made happy by the success if their speculation a third of the profits," a. very' handsome fortune, was wil lingly conceded to II, Mellish, Who nobly won it by his intreped passage t the channel. That he had nearly risked success and bis own reputation, through encountering, the. unprincipled Gotlieb, be frankly confided to Mr. Ashley the story wa's cou firmed, if confirmation were indeed needed, by the extent of Sehenck's losses, obliging an immediate sale of all-disposable merchandise. The disaster preyed so heavily, on his mind, .that he fell sick, made a voyage to Holland, without-' even taking leave of Mr. Ashley or. his daughter,,. neither (f whom be dared encounter. -Henry was invited to hake the villi :at Waltlisinstow a home during his slay in F.nglalul he found the time pass so de lightfully that he wrote to Paris, requesting further leave of absence, which could not be refused. . But when the period of departure aniv cil, lie could nit tear himself avray from Mary Ashley, explained the state of his affections to her father, was made ha ppy ly then sum ucf , that if she worn agreeable, he might have Mary for a. partner of his home Mr. Ashley for partner in commercial enterprise; so the return to Paris was ubandnnod, and Miss Ashley became Mrs. Mellish, whilst the fate of Gotlieb was commen-cd on as a signal Warning to himself a nd others, that " honesty is "the best poli y ;" and that it. is essential to know the difference belwixt'bnying, and selling, in malting a iiM-n Speculation.
