assistance and obtain details of the wreck of the gunboat Wasp.The weather was hazy when she struck, about three o'clock in the morning.The officer on watch ordered sail to be set for the purpose of steadying the boat, as a lumpy sea was on, and the orders were being carried out when the Wasp, which it is surmised was groatly out of her course, without the slightest warniog struck upon a rock.The vessel rebounded into the deep water, and it was found a gaping hole had heen made in her bow, and that it would be impossible for her to keep afloat.Six of the crew escaped by clinging to the wreckage, from which they were picked up by fishing boats.The Wasp foundered about forty feet from a lighthouse.The masts are visible.The survivors: when rescued were terribly cxhausted.52 of tho crew wero drowned.All of the officers were lost.On the rocky coast where the disaster occurred it was impossible to use small boats.Chicago, Sept.26.\u2014Joseph Racside, of Waulkegan, appeared before the U.S.commissioner yesterday and gave bail to appear for examination on the question of extradition for forgery.The application was made by the Clydesdale Association of Scotland, charging that Raeside purchased a lot of Clydesdale horses of inferivr breeding and forged pedigrees and sold them in this country to thd detriment of the horse interests, The application was presented to the stato department through the British minister, and government officers were dirceted to arrest Racside.Hon Andrew W.Ferguson, of Malone, who has been failing for some years past, was found dead in his room on Tuesday week, He began life as a harness-maker, but turning his attention to hops when fow were raised anfl prices good, made a fortune.The Malone Palladium states that D.M.Cameron attended the fair at Huntingdon last week, and, in reciting some features of the show after his return home, said: \u201cThere were tive to be horsemen.All of the four will agree in telling you that we.saw more good horses on the grounds there in one day than you will see in Franklin county in a year.I believe that there wcre so many horses thero that all the hay raised in Franklin county would not more than keep them.In the single class of light draft horses there were eight matched teams, and every one of these sixteen horses would weigh over 1,200 pounds.The truth is that our Canadian neighbors pay moro attention to breeding fine stock than we do, and arc therefore able to make better exhibitions.\u201d The decline of the customs revenue of Italy, owing to the prevalencs of cholera, is estimated

MILL AND DRIVE WELL.To (Ae Bditor of the Camadion Gleaner.These are of great service and value to those who can use them.My wind mill is erected on my barn, over the stables, and is used to drive the pump, aud water my stock.It has been in use four months, and has stood the teat of three severe storms, showing: on each occasion its strength and adaptability, which was beyond my expectations, The wheel is 10 fect, and turns with a slight breeze, is noiseless, steady, and of great power, and is attached to the ump, which is connected to the drive well.his well is simply made, by attaching a sand point to our common gas pipe (say 1} inch) and driving it into the earth a sufficient depth to warrant the supply of water required (this can be ascertained by getting the depth inside of pipe).Then attach a pump suitable for the size of the pipe and commence pumping.I have ysed a drive well for ten months, Last winter it was worked by hand to supply my stock, but I raised it up again, and drove it in & new placo to suit the wind mill, to the depth of 17 feet, securing 6} fest of water in the short time of 25 minutes, Over 500 gallons bas been pumped at once from the well by the wind mill into the reservoir (which 1 use to carry a supply during 8 calm), and still the supply seems abundant.I sco no reason why the supply of water may not be as great froma drive well as from one that is dug, if the same fountain is reached.All soil through which the pipe can bo driven is suitable for a drive well.A heavy hammer, and a short pieco of hardwood scantling, is all that is required in driving the pipe.Most farmers can set up their own wind mills and drive their own well.Sand points, gas pipe, and pumps to suit, as well as first-class, durable 'wind mills, can be found at J.A.McMartin's, Craig street, Montreal, from whom 1 purchased.Mr Editor, these remarks, I trust, will inform many of my friends, who have made inquiries as to my success in their use, and I shall be willing to give further information, thru your columns or by private letter, as may be desired.Yours respectfully, P, GARDINER.Dundee, Sept.22.CANADA.Point au Pic, Murray Bay, Q., Sept.25.\u2014The steamer Saguenay, on hersway to Quebec, with a number of British Scientists and other passengers on board, and while lying at tho wharf at this place, about 11.30 last night, caught fire and was burned to the water's edge.No lives were lost.The firc was first seen by a Mr Boutet, a butcher who immediately gave the alarm, The captain had retired to his stateroom but was not in bed.He immediately ordered tho steam pumps to bo started, but the firofhaving orginated immediately alove the engine and spread xo rapidly, the pumps could not be used, and in a few minutes the whole upper part of the steamer was in flames, Altho every man was at his post and worked energetically, tho fire could not be checked.A number of passengers who had gone to bed narrowly escaped with their lives in their night clothes, The passengers are all comfortably housed and waiting relief from Quebec.The steamer is a complete wreck, and lies about 500 feet from the wharf.The mails and most of the passengers\u2019 luggage has been lost, along with a lot of valuable cattle which Mr Boutet was sending to Quebec.Tho captain was the last man to leave the vessel, and saw that everybody was safe on tho wharf before tho steamer was cut adrift.The Winnipeg Sun, summing up the result of the harvestin the Northwest, says :\u2014\u201cAltogether, it can be said with truth that, in spite of the untoward weather, the whole country has been blessed with a crop of surpassing quality, and unparalleled so far as quantity is concerned by the best harvests ever known in this wheat-belt since settlement began in earnest.The price now current well repays those who, taking time by the forelock, sowed early in the spring are thus ablo to market now ; and even if it should drop to 70 cents or a fraction below, the return, taking the high average yield into account, will put the farmer on his feet agnin and give & great impetus to business.\u201d Advices from Wolfe Bay report that hundreds of fishermen and their families in the neighborhood are on the brink of starvation, in consc- quence of the almost complete failure of the cod fishery on the Labradog coast, Pickering, Ont., Sept.25.\u2014~Three Pullinans and the private car of Chicf Engineer Hanna- ford, of the Grand Trunk express for Montreal and Boston, left the track near Pickering station last might, owing to a broken frog, and went over an embankment tweuty-five feet high.The accident occurred about 10 o'clock.The night was dark and the rnin was pouring | down in torrents, and the crash of the rolling cars, the screams of the women and the groans of the wounded emanating from the intense darkoess were most painful to listen to.The trouble was increased when Mr Hannaford's coach took fire.The flames burnt fiercely despite the pouring rain, and quickly communicated to the Pullman coach that came next, tho thera the flames were stayed.The fire lit up the scone and the passengers scrambled from the shattered coaches.Mr Hannaford, with his dlerks, were among the first to get out, and with a large number of townspeople, who quickly gathered, assisted in rescuing the pas- scpgers from the burning Pullman, As soon as possible the passengers were collected together and the roll called, when, to everyone's astonishment and joy, it was found that not only bad no one been killed, but actually that none had kin dling foot rol sand persons collected at the cathedral at sev sal times.Yet many eson Naples on Friday to witness the miraculous, in rart, while most of (he wou | received injuries that

and the afternoon was bright and warm.The threatening appearance in the mornin kept not a few entries and a number of intending visitors at home, making both the show and attendance smaller than it would have been had the weather been fine, As it was, the exhibits were larger than could have been anticipated, and in the afternoon there was a surprisingly large crowd on tho grounds.Few of the

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1884.THE accounts received by mail show that Mr Gladstone's reception in Scotland was something wonderful, his journey reserabling a royal progress.In Edinburgh, a staid, conservative place, the enthusiasm was overflowing, and his experience both there and wherever he went, assured him that whatever England and Ireland may do, Scotland will sustain him at the approaching general election, His attitude with regard to the House of Lords partly explains the warmth with which a people, who have always been identified with progress and reform, have welcomed him, but unquestionably the demonstrations that greeted him at every step were Scotland's tributes to those qualities of character which she peculiarly honors, and are so grandly exemplified in Mr Gladstone\u2014an ardent religious spirit combined with self-sacri- ficing zeal for the rights of man.LAS1 week the question as to whether the license laws fall within the powers of the local houses or of the Dominion parliament was argued before the supreme court.By a friendly arrangement, all the provinces were heard, and the case argued purely on its merits.No matter what the judgment may be at Ottawa, it will be appealed to England, so as to have a decisive deliverance.We trust it may be in favor of the Dominion, for in this cry of provincial rights we can perceive nothing but danger to the peace of Canada.ALTHOUGH Mr Mercier accepted $5000 in payment of all costs and agreed to drop the personal charges against Judge Mousseau, in connection with bis election for Jacques Cartier, he renewed the prosecution, contending that the action of the Judge and his friends left him no other mode of vindicating himself.This move was met by Judge Mousseau's fyling an admission of corrupt practices by his agents, and so \u2018confessing judgment with costs.This was not what Mercier wanted, as his object was to prove corrupt practices against the Judge, and have him disqualified.While considering how he could cffect this, Mousseau made another flank movement, by inducing the petitioner to drop Mercier as his counsel and substitute another lawyer, a good Castor.This places Mercier out of the fight in spite of-himself, and all he can do is, to threaten the petitioner that if he does not proceed as he ought, he will raise a new case.Lorp Claud John Hamilton and his brother Lord George Francis are on à visit to Canada, and are thé guests of their brother-in-law the Governor General.Lord Claud is a director of the Grand Trunk,and has taken the opportunity to go over its main line.He professes to be satisfied with all he has seen, but says\u2014 The rails seemed to him to be too light to bear the heavy locomotives, and trains passing over them from the west, and larger engines were coming into use everywhere.The rails now in use on -the Grand Trunk, he understood, weighed 63 pounds to the yard.On the more important lines in England and also in the United States, 75 aud 80 pound rails were being used, and in his opinion it would be an economical move to procure a heavier class of rails.Referring to the fact that the Grand Trunk is a losing concern at present, and that, for the last half year it was only able to pay interest to the firat classes of preference bondholders, he ascribed it to the competition of the Canada Pacific.He said : : The Grand Trunk stockholders had invested enormous sums of money in Canada with prac- cally no return, and it was iniquitous for the Dominion Government to allow the Canadian Pacific Railway Company to use the money granted by the public to build the main Pacific ine in establishing a competing railway system in the other provinces.Such a thing would certainly not have been permitted in England or even, he thought, in the United States.The Grand Trunk did not object to the construction of other railways, even those competing with them, but they surely had cause to complain when the Government of Canada entered the lists against them, and used the public treasury to aid their rivals.The crusade of the Canadian Pacific Company against the Grand Trunk was suicidal, resulting only in injury to both.This is true, but the government which has advanced public money to build rival lines, is the very government the Grand Trunk used its influence to get into power, and with them it was a very good government, useful to reject applications for charters, until the Syndicate became Sir John's first love.When Mr Blake last session demonstrated that had the Syndicate used its subsidy to build its main-line it would have had sufficient, and that the additional loan was really to enable it te pay for branches in the older Provinces and in the United States, the votes that defeated his reso- lations were those of men who largely owed their election to Grand Trunk support.It is radically wrong for railways or any other monopolies to have political influence, but in Canada, for the past 30 years, it was first Grand Trunk and now Canada Pacific domination, and the sole difference has been that the latter has proved the more burdensome to the taxpayers.It will be à dark day for Canada should those two great companies unite.Lord Claud praises the management of the Grand Trunk, which, as a director, he might be expected to do, but certainly the policy, of competition which Jed ib te buy the North-fhore railway, the line from Perth to Toronto, and to buildnumerousbranches in Ontario and Quebec, has proved a complete failure, and the millions so spent would prove of great advantage were they in its treasury to-day.Besides, what has Lord Claud to say with regard to the parasites who feed on the Grand Trunk, men who fasten themselves upon it and fatten at the expense of its shareholders.It has, from its beginning, been a peculiarity of the Grand Trunk, that while a losing concern to its English investors, hun- of individuals have lived like princes upon it and many drawn large fortunes.THE Protestant committee of the council of instruction have been in session and distributed the fund arising from marriage licenses for the current year.We have always contended that so long as that unjust special tax is levied on the Protestant community of this province, it should be distributed, so fur as practicable, to benefit those who pay it.Instead of that, it is mainly absorbed by McGill college and 2 sectarian institutions, Morrin and Bishop's colleges, a mere trifle being allotted to the academies and model schools.It thus comes, that the Protestants of the province pay a tax to educate Presbyterian and Episcopalian clergymen and to reduce the cost of intending lawyers and doctors in getting their arts course at McGill.That the tax is a small one is of no consequence and does not affect the principles involved, giving state support to denominational institutions and offering a premium to our youth to enter the professions.The need of the province, institutions in each county that will give those who desire it a somewhat better education than is obtainable at the common schools, is ignored, and our model schools and academies struggle for existence for want of the money accruing from a fund which was unquestionably designed for them.So long as the committee is composed so largely of clergymen and heads of colleges, there is little hope of justice being done.While speaking of academies, we would give voice to the sentiments of the community with regard to the new rules, making compulsory the study of Latim Even those who believe the study of the classics to be advantageous, must admit that a certain amount of preparation should go first, and that to force boys and girls who are not grounded in English grammar, who cannot spell decently, or write in their own language with coherence, to take up Latin is very foolish.Farmers send their daughters to academies to qualify as teachers and their sons to receive a sound English education, and the limited time at their disposal is taken up more or less by trying to cram a little Latin.Making the study of French compulsory is right,but only pedants, who ignore the needs of the people, would endeavor to place Latin in the same rank.GENERAL WOLESLEY is auperintending the forwarding of troops and stores from Cairo up the Nile, and already a large number of men are gathered near where the difficulties to navigation begin.The expedition will not be fairly beyond civilization for ten days or so.The Canadian boatmen will arrive at Alexandria this week, and are to be sent at once to the upper cataracts, where the boats are being got ready.Late despatches set at rest the safety of General Gordon, who has made so good a defence that his assailants are not likely to press him hardly for some time.\u2019 DUNDEE SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS, A MEETING was held in the Town Hall on the 27th September ; N.Farlinger, chairman, and Coms Moody and Buchanan present.The following engagements were entered into, viz: Laura McDonald in district No 4, Mary McEwen, in district No.6, And Belle Pindar in district No 2.That the following districts be supplied with wood as follows: district No 1 with 10 cords; district No4 with 12cordsand district No 6 with 10 cords ; wood to be two feet long, split suitable for a stove, and if soft wood, it must be dry; if hard wood, green or dry.That all arrears of school taxes be placed in the hands of the County sec.-treas.for collection.ORMSTOWN.Competition between the grain-buyers at the railway stations and those along the St Lawrence promises to be keen.The Grand Trunk has given special rates for grain cars, but so far the difference in favor of the river-ports has induced farmers to drive across the track.Immense quantities of are going daily from this Parish to Valleyhold and $ Timothy.ATHELSTAN.7 Messrs Boyd & Co.are makihg extensive repairs to their factory at this place, Mr Simon Rennie has charge of the work.On Monday last Mr Daniel Brims passed through here with 5 beautiful Durham calves (bulls) destined for an extensive stock-breeder in Ontario.Mrs Ellen Rowe has received the appoint ment of postmistress here, vice R.Rowe (her husband) resigned.It is understood Mrs R, will keep the office at her residence.Athelstan Division Sons of Temperance, aftor lying dormant for some time, has revived, with new life and an increase of membership.ELGIN.The picnic advertised to come off on the 23rd ult, was rather a failure in point of numbers.The ladies bad ample cooked and ready for 3 or 400, bat barely 150 turned out, end who were not disappointed, as & very enjoyable time was spent.An open meeting was held in the evening in the Town Hall, when an excellent me was gone through with.The following day, the annual session of the Grand Division of the 8.of T.was held.There were quite a number of delegates, and also several visitors, in all about 50.A good of the yeer's work was given.5 new divisions had been started and there had been a large increase in the membership, The officers elect for the next 12 months are as follows: G.W.P,, J.KM.Duff; G.W.A., Nettie L.Clark; GS.John M.Hall, (for the 26th , GT, T.A, Farquhar; ae James T.Gillies GC, Wn.F.Stephen ; GS, Wm.McComb.Your Dundee correspondent will please take notice that your Elgin correspondent is not easily offended, can take a joke, and would inform him that he did not need even the use of Webster's Unabridged to show him that it was the horses of Bell Bros.that would have made quite a show of themselves at the Fair.I cannot say, however, whether it was I or the Dundee man that kept themaway.Oce thing sure, they were not there.HOWICK SCHOOL COMMISSIONERS.At the meeting on Saturday, all the members were present.The following bills were ordered to be paid, against District No 3 $2.50, against District No 1 bills amounting to $286.20.Moved, seconded and carried that the School fees be levied as follows: per month, No 2 at 5¢ per month, No 3 at 10e per month, and No 4 at 25¢ per month.HUNTINGDON.The grant to the Huntingdon Academy for the current year is only $400.Ormstown Hemmingford and Valleyfield the trifle of $50.Out of the $7,205 realized from marriage licenses, over $2,500 is given to MoGill, and $1,250 each to Bishop's and Morrin colleges.At the annual meeting of the Mutual Fire Insurance company, held yesterday, the old board, with one exception, was re-elected ; William Carruthers, Ormstown concession, bein, chosen in the place of George Cross.The annu report was most favorable, showing an increase of*16 policies over 1883, and $1,175 net assets.There will be no assessment this year.W.W.Robertson of Montreal lectured in Victoria Hall on Friday evening to a bandful of hearers.He was disturbed in no way.Sergt.Wathen resumed his evangelistic meetings last evening in Queen's Hall.The attendance was small.&& On Monday William Avery, foreman in the hopyard of A.J.Luce & Co, Cazaville, was engaged in blasting a large stone, For that purpose, he was preparing & cartridge of dynamite, when, in squeezing it, it exploded.The concussion caused several caps ho had in his vest pocket to explode also.He fell senseless, was carried to his home, and the services of Drs Rose, Stewart, and Macfie secured without loss of time.They found his right hand badly lacerated, necessitating the amputating of the thumb at the first joint.The 2 first fingers are so torn that they also may have to be cut off.The explosion cf the caps in his right vest pocket made a large wound in the anterior part of the abdomen, exposing the bewels, and a number of small wounds in- the upper part of the thigh.The escape was a marvellous one, for though not out of danger, his recovery is looked for.K&@Y À surveying party is at work to run lines between Fort Covington and Massena.Three trial lines will be laid down and afterwards submitted to those interested.If the road is built, it will be mainly by contributions from alonx the route, and already a considerable amount of stock has been subscribed.For the building of tbe link between Massena and Nor- wood, the Rome and Watertown Company is looked to.KZ As reported in last week's issue, Mr Ness received his new Clydesdale by the Grecian from Glasgow in perfect order, and he was brought home on Wednesday night.Heis a splendid 3-year old, weighs 1670lbs.of a fine bay color with black points, the only white being a ratch on the face.He was bred by Arthur Lang, Kilmalcolm, Renfrewshire, and is off the best blood in Scotland, Mr Ness sold is imported 2-year o ie to Mr Brownlee of Hemmingford, Tho SE tod to have had her for the show of No 2, but she was \u2018detained owing to the state of the weather.It turns out that Mr Ness's agent in Scotland had partly insured the three horses he lost.6\" The warm weather of late has been taken advantage of by farmers to lift their potatoes, take in corn-stalks, and like work.Potatocs are the best crop that has been known for many years ; free from rot, dry, and of fair yield.K&\" On Sunday week the verterinary-sur- geon of the district, Mr McCormick, was called by Phelim Flynn, River Qutarde, to see & mare.The result of his visit was the delivery of twin colts, perfect in every respect, but united at the hind legs\u2014a sort of equine Siamese twins.To save the mare they had to be killed, but had that not been neceagary they would, to all appearance, have lived.This is the first case of the kind within Mr McCormick's knowledge.The mare is doing well.&&7 The deepening of the Valleyfield feeder of the St Louis river is progressing slowly, the dredge having been frequently stopped from breakages.The feeder is being deepened to 63 feet, so that there will be nothing to prévent barges coming to near St Stanislas.The im- rovements cannot be completed this year.he Beauharnois people have been excited over getting Mr Corriveau to re-establish himself in their town, but as his silk-works were a fai ure in\u2019 Montreal their coming might prove no benefit.Itis believed, however, he will go to St Hyacinthe,where a bonus of $15,000 is offered him.HEAVY FILLIES.To the Editor of the Canadian Gleaner.SiR \u20141In the report of the Huntingdon Show, I noticed quite a misrepresentation in the class of pure-bred imported fillies.It ran thus: \u201cRoy's filly, lately bought from Ness, imported last Fall, was well developed for her age, and weighs 1290Ibs, Her competitors were more rangy and heavier.White's weighed 1430s.\u201d ow, it would be a great injustice to allow this to pass without correction, both to Mr Roy and myself.Both fillics were shown at the Provincial Exhibition, and on the 5th day of the Fair both were weighed on the scale on the ground at the same time, in the presence of myself and others.Roy's filly weighed 1430 ths and Dalgliesh's, er White's, 14101ha, Hoping you will publish the above and let the public draw their own conclusions.Yours truly, RoBERT Nise, [White's filly\u2019 was weighed on the society's scales on the morning of the show, and the figures 1430 were copied from the certificate.Roy's was (as wo learned after the paper was printed) not weighed, and the 1200 was given us in mistake, being the weight of Robertson's mare~ED, G.District No 1 at 30c model school is

excellent, and fully ual to any previous one.In several classes heavy-draft horses it s Huntingdon, and possibly in sheep as & whole.In cattle there was a falling off.Î This society bas imitated Huntingdon in the awkward method of two rings, which prevents visitors from seeing all the horses.The aged stallions formed an inferior class, being deficient in bone.Beaulieu's is a Break O , and took 1st prize at Montreal as well as here.The 2nd prize also went to a get of the same horse, and the 3rd is off Lord Haddo.Pure-bred horses are so abundant in Beauharnois, that there is no need of grades, and the ones are soon picked up by outsiders, The brood mares were The colt of the 1st prize one was remarkable for size but nothing else, weighing 850ib.He is a March colt and had Lord Haddo for sire.The colt of the 2ad prize dam is off the Sir Colin sold by Mr Cottingham last Spring.Lockerby's mare, the best in the ring, was placed 3rd owing te her colt being poor and sick.It is off Endymion.The 2-year old horse colts were more than average.The 1st rie went to a well-proportioned Prince yal, the best entire horse shown in either ring, the 2nd to a Break O'Day, and the 4th to a colt off Handsome Jack.The 2nd prize one weighed 1340ib.The fillies also were excellent, and the 1st (off Lord Haddo) and the 2nd (off Handsome Jack) prize ones, weighed 1400ib.The 3rd prize animal, off Break O'Day, weighed 13301b.These are remarkable weights, for 2-year olds fillies, which are by no means coarse, but carry their weight in low-set, compact bodies.The teams might defy any other county.The 1st prize was, for the 3rd time, awarded to James Tait's, which are off Conqueror and weigh 3150ib.Charles Tait, as last year, received the 2nd prize, one being a Glasgow the other a Conqueror.Andrew Hunter took 3rd prize with a pair of 3-year old Conquerors, which weigh 28001b.The 1st prize team in the light-drafts, Wm.Young's, was mado up of a Sir Colin and a two-year old colt off Handsome Jack ; McCaig had a nice active team, a grey and a black, and Sinton\u2019s pair is off Sir Walter aud Conqueror.The judges in both rings deplored the number of blemished horses brought before them, particularly in the teams and brood mares, which is owing to the farmers selling off their best.Selling a good mareand breeding off an unsound one is what no farmer should do.In the light-draft ring, the best classes were the mares and yearling fillies.The colts off the Society's horses filled the ring, and Handsome Jack's looked very well, The 1st and 4th prizes are Haddos, all the others are off Handsome Jack.The single drivers were good and the judges had some trouble in making their choice, The 1st prize was carried off by a True Blue, and there was objection raised to his being an entire horse, but as the society has no rule excluding stallions, the award stood.There was only one entry for pair of carriage horses, and they were so poor that a 3rd prize would have corresponded with their merits.The society\u2019s horses were brought on last for exhibition, and many had thus an opportunity, for the first time, of seeing Saint Mungo, which was acquired last spring, when we gave his pedigree.Without question, he is the most werful horse yet brought into the district.e is coal black, with white hind legs and face, and full of life.His legs are heavy, but there is this peculiarity about him, that his body being in proportion their coarseness is not noticeable, and a more evenly balanced horse could not well be of his breed.His body is particularly wide and deep, yet short, with a prominent breast.He is 5 years old and weighs 18501b.He is off Drew's stock, and like all of them is only registered, in the Select Clydesdale studbook.We shall be surprised if this vigorous animal does not bring grand stock.Handsome Jack never deserved his name better, being in fine condition, and his dappled-bay coat smooth and glossy.As noted last week, Lord Haddo was sold for $205.The real purchaser, we have since learned, was Joseph St Onge.While the society has done much good to the county, its specu ations in horses have been unfortunate.w, Lord Haddo.Break O'Day, and the Percheron were all successively, sold at far below their orignal cost, No prises were offered for pure-bred sires, so that Swanston's and Dunn's did not compete, We learned that both have had successful seasons, though the competi.Hon of the society's horses is much against them, .It looked like old times to see John Symons, with his long whip, superinten in the horse-ring, and the oi veteran, whora his friends were glad to observe enjoys good heslth, must have been gratified to see that his itide- fatigable labors in starting and carrying on, under much diseouragement, this society, of which he may justly be considered the father, have been crowned by such surprising success, Beauharnois has always stood well in Ayr- shires, but either its farmers are relaxing their efforts to keep up their herds or do not exhibit 20 freely, for the present show, like that of last year, shows a falling off.In not one of the classes, wore there enough of entries to take all the premiums.The 1st prize bull stood let in Montreal, and is a well- animal.Mr Watson's is low set, and well-bodied, but is disfigured by a growth below the jaw.His bull fia fine in all points, showing more breeding than the 20d, which is heavier.The grades were good in every class, and so close-bred, that, except pedigrees could not be given, they would pass anywhere as Ayrshires.The cows were particularly fine.The 1st prize yearling has a very neat head.The sheep were an average lot.Several of the aged ewes were very large.The Rutherford ram reap here as the property of T.Hamilton, who has bought him and took his 9rd first prise for this season.McCoig's will ob rival him in size, for tho only 2 years old e weighs 350 Ib.The swine were good ; mostly Berkshires; the best exhibited in the district.Batter at this show indicates no improvement, and none of ov was ly ad + the ja e only y tub was that which tok 1st prize, and it was too aoû, The cheeses was better, and both samples were geod: There was only 1 factory cheese, from cFarlane and Macpherson's on the $ch concession, and which would class as fine anywhere.Vegetables were passable only as compared and as heavy almost as are raised by sa market gardener.was the best we have seen here, both in variety and quality.The maple sugar and honey were very inferior.Of ladies\u2019 work there was a assortment, including several rich and tasteful articles.All the white sewed-work of the other 3 societies put together, would barely have equalled what was displayed here.The patient labor thus spent bave known the weakness of the St Louis madams and mademoiselles, when he brought down the celebrated Davis sewing-machine to show them how it can hem and tuck and braid 88 no other can.There was one crayon drawing, Southend, which was cleverly executed.Inthe list we give only the prizes taken by the English-speaking ladies, being unable to find equivalents in English for a number of the names of articles shown by the Canadians.The proceedings of the day closed with the annual dinner, the President, Mr Bisson, in the chair.Among the guests were Mr Browning and Mr Leclere, secretary of the council of agr- culture, who both gave instructive addresses.THE PRIZE-LIST.HORSES.HEAVY DRAFT.Judges: Edouard Lanctot, Robert Ness, and Narciase Beaudin.Aged Stallions : let

- THE FLOWERS.To the Editor of the Canadian Gleaner.Will you kindly allow me alittle space for explanation.In your account of the showhouse, you seem to like everything but the arrangement of the flowers.Now, in arranging à flowers, I atudy 3 things: lat, I class them for the convenience of the judges; 2nd, to give as & view of them to the public as possible ; t, but not least, to keep the rarest plants from being mutilated by nimble fingers, and that is why I place the most choice plants inside.But you will say, put an extra man to watch them, and I say ten extra men will not do it effectually.The very people who complain that the rarest plants are not seen, would likely wish to bave their fingers on them.The best way to remedy the grievance would be to move the stand back a few feet.Yours truly, Apam M.Mason.&&F The Malone fair, which is in progress, is being favored with fine weather.McFarlane & Macpherson took first prize for cheese.It came from Eim Tree factory, George

had his store exactly on the frontier line in the Township of Hinchinbrook, of the store being in the State of New York and part in the Dominion of Canada.One night between the hours of eloven and three in the moming, all the goods were removed from the Canadian side of the store to the American side, leaving nothing but empty shelves for the Canadian creditors to look to, Messrs.Kirk, Lockerby & Co, MeIn- tyre, French & Co.and other leading merchants, through Messrs Maclaren, Leet, Smith & Rogers, issued a capius against Beerworth, alleging fraudulent secretion of his effects, and under it he wasarrested and brought to the city, where he furnished bail that he would not leave tho country.It was contended by Beerworth's counsel that the goods had been removed by his uncle, William Douglas, to whom he had made an assignment, giving him (Douglas) à voluntary preference for over $10,000, which would more than exhaust the whole estate.It was argued that under the law of New York all the debtor's property, wherever situated, was vested in the assignee and that he was justified in removing the goods to the American sido of the store.Judge Torrance decided against such a pretension, upholding the claims of the Canadian creditors, and confirming the capias against Beerworth.Should he not surrender himself, his bail will be forfeited for the benelit of his Montreal creditors.Cornwall, Sept, 26.\u2014Frank Bedard, a resident of Malone, N.Y.committed suicide by taking laudanum at the Windsor Hotel here last might.Ottawa, Sept.29.\u2014A deputation of clergymen and

Connected with him, and in his power I was, most certainly and most incomprehensibly.Before he died he delivered to a packet that would have told me whol am; bat I have lost it, and deeply have I felt the loss.One only fact I gained from him whom they would have called my father, which is, that with his own hand he slew\u2014jyes, basely slew\u2014my mother ! The address of Francisco was here interrupted by a low, deep groan of anguish, which startled the whole audience.It was now quite dark, and the judge ordered the court to be lighted previous to the defence being continued.The impatience and anxiety of those present were shown in low murmurings of communication, until the lights were brought in.The word \u2018Silence ?from the judge produced an immediate obedience, and the prisoner was ordered to proceed.Francisco then continued his address, commencing with the remembrances of his earliest childhood.As he was warmed with his sub- Jeet, he became more eloquent ; his action became energetical, without violence; and the pallid and modest youth gradually grew into the impassioned and inspired orator.He recapitulated rapidly, yet distinctly and with terrible force, all the startling events in his fearful life.There was truth in his tones of voice, there was conviction in his animated countenance, there was innocence in his open and expressive brow.All who heard believed ; and scarcely had he concluded his address when impatient to rise and give their verdict in his favor.But the judge stood up, and, addressing the jury, told them that it was his most painful duty to remind them that as yet they bad heard but assertion\u2014beautiful and almost convincing assertion truly, but still it, was not proof.\u20ac f observed Francisco, \u2018what evidence can 1 bring forward, except the evidence of those around me at the bar, which will not be admitted ?Can I recall the dead from the grave?Can I expect those who have been murdered to rise again to assert my innocence ?Can I expect that Don Cumanos will appear from distant leagues to give evidence in my behalf 1 Alas ! he knows not how I am situated, or he would have flown to my succor.No, no; not even can I expect that the sweet Spanish maiden, the last to whom I offered my protection, will appear in such a place as this to meet the bold of hun@reds ! : \u2018Sho is here ' replied a manly voice, and a à ,was made through the crowd ; and supported by Edward Templemore, dressed in his uniform, was ushered into: the box for the witnesses.The appearance of the fair girl, who looked around her with alarm, created a great sensation.As soon as she was sufficiently composed she was sworn, and gave her evidence as to Francisco's behavior during the time that she was a prisoner on board of the Avenger.She produced the packet which had saved the life of Francisco, and substantiat- eda pert of the defence, She extolled his kindness and his generosity ; and when she had concluded, every one asked of himself, \u2018Can this young man be a pirate and a murderer?The reply was, \u2018It is impossible.\u2019 \u2018My lord, said Edward Templemore, \u2018I re.permission to ask the prisoner a question.Then I was on board of Rie wreck of the Avenger I found this book floating in the cabin.I wish to ask the prisoner whether, as that young lady has informed me, it is his 7 And Eiward Templemore produced the Bible.\u2018It is mine; replied Francisco.-May I ask you by what means it came into your ion 7 It EL the only relie left of one who is now ne more.It was the consolation of my murdered ?mother; it has since been mine.Give it to me, sir; I may: probably need its support now over ~ - save than .\u2018Wes foother murdered, say you ¥ cried Edward plemore, with much agitation.\u2018I have already said so ; and I now repeat it.The Judge again rose, and recapitulated the evidence to the jury.Evidently friendly to Fannoisco, he was obliged to point out to them Gas altho the evidence of the young lady had frodoced much which might offered in ex- uation, a to submit it to his jesty, in gracious on after a Tati , yet that many acts in which the had been involved endangered his and no testimony had been brought for- ard $0 that he had not, at one time, = gubed the pi altho be might since have , would, of course, remem- bor the evidenes of the mate, Hawkhurst, » Was nob of any value, and must dismiss any which it might have made At the same time be the Feangleco.jut that the FB Byes Tady wee 0 fur that at evidenes [proved my love.Hate not, then, .it pointed out tho good terms subsisting between the young man and the pirate captain.Much ashowas interested in his fate, he must reluctantly remind the jury that the evidence, on the whole, was not sufficient to clear the prisoner, and he considered it their duty to return a verdict of guilty against all the prisoners at the bar.\u2018My lord,\u2019 said Edward Templemore, a fow seconds after the judge had resumed his seat, \u2018may not the contents of this packet, the seal of which I have not ventured to break, afford some evidence in favor of the prisoner?Have you any objection that it should bo opened previous to the jury delivering their vordict ?\u2018None,\u2019 replied the judge; \u2018but what are its supposed contents ?' \u2018The contents, my lord, replied Francisco, \u2018are in the writing of the pirate captain.He delivered that packet into my hands previous to our quitting the schooner, stating that it would inform me who were my parents.My lord, in my present situation 1 claim that packet, and refuse that its contents shall be read in court.If I am to die an ignominious death, at least those who are connected with me shall not have to blush at my disgrace, for the sceret of my parentage shall dic with me.\u2019 \u2018Nay, nay ; be ruled by me, replicd Edward Templemore, with much emotion.\u2018In the narrative, the handwriting of which can be proved by the king's evidence, there may be acknowledgment of all you have stated, and it will bo received us evidence; will it not, my lord ?\u2018If the handwriting is proved, I should think it may, replied the judge; \u2018particularly as the lady was present when the packet was delivered and heard the captain's assertion.Will you allow it to be offercd as evidence, young man ?\u2018No, my lord; replied Francisco, \u2018unless I have permission first to peruse it myself.1 will not have its contents divulged unless T am sure of honorable acquittal.The jury must deliver their verdict.\u2019 At last the foreman of the jury rose to deliver tha verdict.A solemn and awful silence prevailed throughout tbe court; the suspense was painful to a degree.\u2018My lord, said the foreman of the jury, \u2018our verdict is\u2014\u2019 \u2018Stop, sir, l said Edward Templemore, as he clasped onc arm round the astonished Francisco, andextended the other toward the foreman\u2014 \u2018stop, sir ! harm him not for he is my brother ! The announcement was electrical ; the fure- man dropped into his seut ; the judge and whole court were in mute astonishment.The dead silence was followed by confusion, which after a time the judge in vain attempted to puta stop to.And now that they were together, every one in court perceived the strong resemblance between the two young men.Francisco's complexion was darker than Edward's,from his constant exposure, from infancy, to a tropical sun; but the features of the two were the same.It was some time before the judge could obtain silence in the court; and when it had been obtained, he was himself puzzled how to proceed, Edward and Francisco, who had exchanged a few words, were now standing side by side.\u2018My lord,\u2019 said Edward Templemore, \u2018the prisoner consents that the packet shall be opened.\u2019 71 do; said Fran\u20acisco, mournfully, \u2018altho 1 have but little hope from its contents.Alas! now that I have everything to live for\u2014now that I cling to life, I feel asif every chance is gone! The days of miracles have passed; and nothing but the miracle of the re-appearance of the pirate captain from the grave can prove my innocence.\u2019 \u2018He re-appears from the grave to prove thine innocence, Francisco | said a deep hollow voice, which startled the whole court and most of all Hawkhurst and the prisoners at the bar.Still more did fear and horror distort their countenances when into the witness-box stalked the giant form of Cain.But it was no longer the figure which we have described in the commencement of this narrative : bis beard had been removed, and he was pale, wan, and emaciated.His sunken eyes, his hollow cheek, and a short cough, which interrupted his speech, proved lis days were nearly at a close.\u2018My\u2019 lord, said Cain, addressing the judge, \u2018I am the pirate Cain, and was the captain of the Avenger! Still am I free.I come here voluntarily, that I may attest the innocence of that young man! As yet, my hand has not known the manacle, nor my feet the gyves! I am not a prisoner, nor included in the indictment, and at present my evidence is good.None know me in this court except those whose test1- mony, as prisoners, is unavailing ; and therefore, to save that boy, and only to save him, I demand that I may be sworn.\u2019 The oath was administered with more than usual solemnity.\u2018My lord, and gentlemen of the jury, I have been in court since the commencement of the trial, and I declare that every word which Francisco has uttered in his own defence is true.He is totally innocent of any act of piracy or murder ; the packet would, indeed, have proved as much; but in that packet there are secrets which I wished to remain unknown to all but Francisco ; and rather than it should be opened, I bave come forward myself.How that young officer discovered that Francisco is his brother I know not ; but if he also is the son of Cecilia, #Templemore itis true.But the packet will explain all.\u2018And new, my lords, that my evidence is received, l ams content.I have done one good deed befare I die, and I surrender myself, as a pirate and a foul murderer, to justice.True, my life is namely closed, thanks to that villain there ; but I prefer that I should meet that death I merit, as an expiation of my many deeds of ils\u2019 Brain then turned to Hawkhurst, who was close to him, but the mate appeared to be ina state of stupor; he had not recovered from his terror, acd still imagined the appearance of Cain to be supernatural, \u201cVillain I\u2019 exclaimed Cain, putting his mouth closes to Hawkburst\u2019s ear\u2014\u2018doubly dammed villain | thou'lt die like à dog, and unrevengod ! The boy is safe, and I'm alive.\u2019 \u2018Art thou really living 7 said Hawkhurst, recovering from bis fear.*Yes, living\u2014yes, flesh and blood ; feel, wreteh feel this arm, and be convinced ; thou hast felt the power of it before mow,\u2019 continued Cain, sarenetically.\u2018And now, my Lord, I havedone; Francisco, thee well.1loved thee, and have my mMeWOry, and forgive me-\u2014yes, forgive me whea I'm no more,\u201d said Cain, who then turned his eyes to the ceiling of the Court-house.\u2018Yes, there she is Francisco !\u2014there she is!and see,\u2019 cried he, cxtending both arms above his head, \u2018she smiles upon\u2014yes, Francisco, your sainted mother smiles and pardons\u2014' : The sentence was not finished ; for Hawkhurst, when Cain's arms were upheld, perceived his knife in his girdle, and, with the rapidity of thought, he drew it out and passed it through the body of the pirate captain.Cain fell heavily on the floor, while the court was again in confusion.Hawkhurst was secured, and Cain raised from the ground.\u2018I thank theo Hawkhurst!\" said Cain, in an expiring voice ; \u2018another murder thou hast to answer for; and you have saved me from tho disgrace, not of the gallows, but of the gallows in thy company.Francisco, boy, farewell! And Cain groaned deeply, and expired, Thus perished the pirate captain, who in his life had shed so much blood, and whose death produced another murder.\u2018Blood for blood.The body was removed ; und it now remained but for the jury to give their verdict.All the prisoners were found guilty, with the exception of Francisco, who loft the dock accompanied by his newly-found brother, and the congratulations of every individual who could gain access to him.CHAPTER XVII.Our first object will be to explain to the feader by what means Edward Templemore was induced to surmise that in Francisco, whom ho had found a brother, and also to account for the re-appearance of the pirate Cain.In pursuance of his orders, Edward Temple- more had proceeded on board of the wreck of the Avenger; and while his men were cin- ployed in collecting articles of great value which were on board of her ; he had desconded into the cabin, which was partly under water.Here ho had picked up a book floating near the | lockers, and on examination found it to bo à Bible.Surprised at seeing such a book on lioard of a pirate, ho had taken it with him when he ro- turned to the Enterprise, and had shown it to Clara, who immediately recognized it as the property of Francisco.The book was saturated with the salt-water, and as Edward mechanically turned over the pages, he referred to the title-page to sec if thero was any naine upon it.There was not ; but he observed that the blank or fly-leaf next to the binding had been pasted down, and that there was writing on the other side.In ity present state it was casily detached from the cover; and then to his astonishment, he read the name of Cecilia Templemore\u2014his own mother.He knew well the history ; how he had been saved, and his mother and brother supposed to be lost ; and it may readily be imagined how great was his anxiety to ascertain by what means her Bible had come into the possession of Francisco.He dared not think Francisco was his brother\u2014 that he was so closely connected with one he still supposed to be a pirate ; Lut the cireum- stance was possible ; and altho he had intended to have remained a few days longer, he now listened to the entreatics of Clara, whose peculiar position on board was only to be justi- tied by the peculiar position from which she had been rescued, and returning that evening to.the wreck ho set fire to her, and then made ull sail for Part, Royal.Fortunately ho arrived, as wo have staled, on the day of the trial; aud as soon as the signal was made by the admiral he immediately manned his gig, and taking Clara with him, in case her evidence might be of use, arrived at the Court-house when the trial was about half over, In our last chapter but one we stated that Cain had been wounded by Hawkhurst when he was swimming on shore, and had sunk ; the ball had entered his chest and passed through his lungs.The contest between Hawkhurst and Francisco, and their capture by Edward, had taken place on the other side of the ridge of rocks, in the adjacent cove; and altho Francisco had seen Cain disappear, and concluded that he was dead, it was not so; he had again risen above the water, and dropping his feet and finding bottom, he contrived to crawl out and wade into a cave adjacent, whore he lay down to dio.But in this cave there was one of the Avenger's boats, two of the pirates, mortally wounded, and the four Kroumen, who had concealed themselves there with the intention of taking no part in the conflict, and, as soon as it became dark, of making their escape in the boat, which they had hauled up dry into the cave, Cain staggered in, recovered the dry land, and fell.Pompey, the Krouman, perceiving his condition, went to his assistance and bound up his wound, and the staunching of the blood soon revived the pirate captain.The other pirates died unaided.Altho the island was scarched in every direction, this cave, from the water flowing into it, escaped the vigilance of the British seamen ; and when they re-embarked, with the majority of the pirates captured, Cain and the Kroumen were undiscovered.+ As soon as it was dark; Cain informed them of bis intentions; and altho the Kroumen would probably have left him to his fate, yet, as they required his services to know how to steer to some other island, he was assisted into the stern-sheets, and the boat was backed out of the cave.By the directions of Cain they passed through the passage between the great island and the northern Cayque, and before daylight were far away from any chance of capture, Cain had now, to a certain degree, recovered ; and knowing that they were in the channel of the small traders, he pointed out to the Krou- men that, if supposed to be pirates, they would inevitably be punished, although not guilty, and that they must off as the crew of a small coasting-vessel which had been wrecked, He then, with the assistance of Pompey, cut off his beard as close as he could, and arranged his dress in & more European style They had neither water nor provisions, and were exposed to a vertical sun.Fortunately for them, and still more fortunately for Francisco, on the second day thay wore picked up by an American brig bound to Antigua, in narratéd his fictitious disasters, but said nothing about bis wound, the neglect of which would certainly have occasioned his death in a very few days alter he appearcd at the trial, bad he not fallen by the malignity of Hawkhurst.Anxious tofind his way fo Port Royal, for he was indifferent as $0 his own Life, and only wish- ed to save Francisco, he was overjoyed to meet a small schooner trading between the islands bound to Port Royal.In that vessel he obtained a passago for himself and the Kroumen, and had arrived three days previous to the trial, and during that time had remained concealed until Lo day that the Admiralty Court as- scm ° It may be as well herc to remark that Cain's reason for not wishing the packet to be opened was, that among the other papers relative to Francisco were directions for the recovery of the treasure which he had concealed, and which of course, ho wished to be communicated to Francisco alone.We will leave the reader to imagine what passed between Francisco and Edward after the discovery of their kindred, and proceed to state the contents of the packet, which the twin.brothers now opened in the presence of Clara alone, We must, however, condense the matter, which was very voluminous.It stated that Chin, whose real name was Charles Osborne, had sailed in a fine schooner from Bilboa for {the coast of Africa to procure a cargo of slaves and bad been out about twenty-four hours, when the crew perceived a boat, apparently , With no one in her, floating about a mile ahead lof them.The water was then smooth, and the vessel had hut little way.As soon as they came up with the boat they lowered down their skiff to examine her.| The men sent in the skiff soon returned towing the boat along-side.Lying at the bottom \u2018of the boat were found several men almost dead and reduced to skeletons, and in the stern- \u2018sheets a negro woman with a child at her breast, and a white female, in astate of exhaustion.| Osborne was then a gay and unprincipled | man, but not a hardened villain aud murderer, tas he afterward became ; he had compassion and fecling.They were all taken on board the ;schonner ; some recovered, others were too much exhausted.Among those restored was Ceeilia Templemore and the infant, who at first had been considered quite dead ; but the negro woman, exhausted by the demands of her nursling and her privations, expired as she was being removed from the boat.À goat that, fortunately, was on board proved a substitute for the negress, and before Osborne had arrived off the coast the child had recovered its health and vigor, and the mother her extreme beauty.We must now pass over a considerable portion of the narrative.Osborne was impetuous in his suit and Cecilia Templemore became his wife, against her better judgment and, indeed, almost her will.She could not sink to the level of her husband, and felt she could never return to respectable society.She had soon more cause for sorrow from the brutal treatment she received from Osborne.1ler child was her ouly solace ; but for him, and the fear of lcav- ing him to the demoralizing influence of those about him, she would have lain down and died; but she lived for him\u2014for him attempted to recall Osborne from his career of increasing guilt \u2014bore meekly with reproachesand with blows.At last Osborne changed his nefarious life for one of deeper guilt; ho became a pirate, and still carried with him Cecilia and ber child.This was the climax of her misery ; she now wasted from day to day, and grief would soon have terminated her existence had it not been hastened by the cruelty of Cain, who, upon an expostulation on her part, followed up with a denunciation of the consequences of his guilty career, struck her with such violence that she sunk under the blow.She expired with a prayer that her child might be rescued from a life of guilt ; and when the then repentant Cain promised what he never performed, she blessed him, too, before she dicd.Such was the substance of tlic narrative, as far as it related to the unfortunate mother of theso two young men, who, when they had concluded, sat hand-in-hand in mournful silence.This, however, was soon broken by the innumerable questions asked by Edward of his brather as to what he could remember of their ill-fated parent, which were followed up by the history of Francisco's eventful life.\u2018And the treasure, Edward,\u2019 said Francisco ; \u2018I cannot take possession of it \u201d \u2018No, nor shall you either,\u2019 replied Edward ; \u2018it belongs to the captors, and must be shared as prize-money.You will never touch one penny of it; but I shall, I trust, pocket a very fair proportion of it.However, keep this paper, as it is addressed to you) The admiral had been made acquainted with all the particulars of the eventful trial, and had sent a message to Edward, requesting that, as soon as ho and his brother could make it convenient, he would be happy to see them at the Penn, as well as the daughter of the Spanish governor, whom he must consider as being under his protection during the time that she remaingd at Port Royal.This offer was gladly accepted by Clara; and on the second day after the trial they proceeded up to.the Penn.Clara and Francisco were introduced, and apartments and suitable attendance provided for the former, \u2018Templemore,\u2019 said the admiral, \u2018I'm afraid I must send you away to Porto Rico, to assure the governor of his daughter's safety.\u2019 \u2018I would rather you would send some one else, sir, and I'll assuro her happiness in the mean time.\u2019 \u2018What! by marrying her ?Humph, you've a good opinion of yourself.Wait till you're a captain, sir.\u2018I hope I shall not have to wait long sir, replied Edward, deraurely.\u2018By-the-bye,\u2019 said the admiral, \u2018did you not say you have notice of treasure concealed in those islands ¥\u2019 \u201cMy brother has: I have not.\u2019 \u2018We must send tor it.I think we must send ou, Edward.Mr Francisco, you must go with im.\u2018With pleasure, sir,\u2019 replied Francisco, laughing; \u2018but I think I'd rather wait till Edward is a captain.His wife and his fortune ought to come together.I think I shall not deliver up my papers until the day of his marriage.\u2019 \u2018Upon my word,\u2019 said Captain Manly, \u2018I wish, Templemore, you had your commission, for there seems so much depending on it; the young ledy's happiness, my share of the prize-money, and the admiral's eight.Roally, admiral, it becomes & common cause\u2014and I'm sare he de- sorves it\u201d \u2018So am I, Manly, replied the admiral ; \u2018aud to prove that I have thought so, here comes Mr Hadley with it in his hand ; it only wants one little thing to complote it\u2014' \u2018Which is your signature, admiral, I presume, replied Captain Manly, taking & pen full of ink, and presenting it to his sesilor .-\u2014 = \u2018Exactly, replied the admiral, seribbling at the bottom of the paper; \u2018and now\u2014it does not want that.Captain Templemore, I wish you joy.\u2019 Edward made a very low obeisance, as his flushed countenance indicated his satisfaction, i \u2018I cannot give commission, admiral,\u2019 said\u2019 | Francisco, presenting a paper in return \u2018but! 1 can give information\u2014and you will find it not value, \u2018God bless my soul! Manly, you must start at daylight ! exclaimed the admiral ; \u2018why, read it ; and then I will write your orders, and enclose a copy of it, for fear of accident.\u2019 ' \u2018That was to have been my fortune,\u2019 said, Francisco, with a grave smile; \u2018but I would, not touch it.\u2019 \u2018Very right, boy !\u2014a fine principle! But we | are not quite so particular, said tho admiral.\u2018Now, where's the young lady ?Let her know that dinner\u2019s on the table.; A fortnight after this conversation Captain | Manly returned with the treasure ; and the En- | terprise, commanded by another officer, return- | ed from Porto Rico, with a letter from the gov-; ernor in reply to one from the admiral, in which the rescue of his daughter by Edward bad been communicated.The letter was full | of thanks to the admiral, and compliments to Edward; and, what was of more importance, | it sanctioned the union of the young officer.with his daughter, with a dozen hoxes of gold | doubloons.About six wecks after the above-mentioned important conversation Mr Witherington, who had beenreading avoluminous packet of letters in his breakfast-room in Finsbury Square, pulled his bell so violently that old Jovatban thought his master must bo out of his senses.This, however, did not induce him to accelerate his solemn and measured pace, and he made speaking.\u2018Why don\u2019t that fellow answer the hell 7 cried Mr Witherington.\u2018I am hero, sir,\u2019 said Jonathan, solemnly.\u2018Well, so you are; but, confound you, you came like the ghost of a butler! But who do you think is coming hore, Jonathan ?\u2018I cannot tell, sir, \u2018But I can !\u2014you,solemn old\u2014 Edward's coming here\u2014coming home dircetly ! \u2018Is he to sleep in his old room, sir ?replied \u2018No; the best bedroom ! Why, Jonathan, lie is married\u2014ho is made captain :\u2014Captain Templemore \u201d \u2018Yes, sir\u201d \u2018And he has found his brother, Jonathan ; his twin-brother \u2018Yes, sir \u2018His brother Francis\u2014that was supposed to be lost! Bat it's a long story, Jonathan, and a very wonderful one, his poor mother has long been dead.\u2019 \u2018In cœlo quies \u201d said Jonathan, casting up his cyes.\u2018But his brother has turned up again.\u2019 \u2018Resurgam !' said the butler.\u2018They will be here in ton days ; so let everything be in readiness, Jonathan.God bless my soul! continued the old gentleman, \u2018I hardly know what I'm about.It's a Spanish girl, Jonathan ! .\u2018What is, sir ¢\u2019 \u2018What is, sir! why, Captain Templemorc's wife; and he was tried as a pirate ! \u201cWho, sir ?\u2018Who, sir, why, Francis, his brother, Jonathan, you're a stupid old fellow.\u2019 \u2018Have you any further commands, sir 7\u2019 \u2018No,no! There\u2014that'll do\u2014go away,\u2019 And in three weeks after this conversation, Captain and Mrs Templemore and his brother Frank were established in tho house, to tho great de light of Mr Witherington ; for he had long been tired of solitude and old Jonathan.The twin-brothers were a comfort to him in his old age: they closed his eyes in peace ; they divided his blessing und his large fortuno ; and thus cnds the history of Tne PIRATE !
