only feels the torment and does not understand the joke.Vicious habits are thus easily brought on.2.Never beat the horse when in the stable.Nothing s0 soon makes him permanently vicious, 3.Let the horse's litter be dry and clean underneath as well as on top.Standing on hot fermented manure makes the hoofs soft, an, brings on lameness.4.Change thelitter partially in some parts and entirely in others, every morning; and brush out and clean thestall thoroughly, 5.To procure a good coat on your horse, use plenty of rubbing and brushing, Plenty of \u201celbow grease\u201d opens the pores, softens the skin, and promotes the animal's general health, 6.Never clean a horse in the stable.The dust fouls the crib, and makes him loathe his 7.Use the curry-comb lightly.When used roughly it is a source of great pain.8.Let the heels be well brushed out every night.Dirt if allowed to cake in, causes grease and gets sore heels.9.Whenever a horse is washed, never leave him till he is rubbed quite dry.He will probably chill if neglected.10.When a horse comes off a journey, the first thing is to walk him about till he is cool, if he is brought im hot.This prevents his taking cold.11.The next thing is to groom him quite dry, first with a wisp of straw, then with a ; brush.This removes dust, dirt, and sweat, _and allows time for the stomach to recover it.| self, and the appetite to return.12.Also let his legs be well rabbed by the hand.Nothing so soon removes a train.It also detects thorns or splinters, soothes the animal, and enables him to feel comfortable.13.Let the horse have some exercise every day.Otherwise he will be liable to fever or bad feet.14.Let your horse stand loose, if possible, without being tied up to the manger.Pain and weariness from a continued disorders, 15.Look often at tho animal's feet and legs.| Disease or wounds in those parts, if at all neglected, soon become dangerous, 16.Every night look and see if there is any stone between the hoof and the shoe.Standing on it all night the horse will be lame next morning.17.If the horse remains in the stable his feet cracked houfs and lamencss.| 18.The feet should not be \u201cstooped\u201d oftener than twice in a week.It will make the hoofs soft and brings ou corns.: 19.Do not urge the animal to drink water which he refuses.It is probably hard and un-, wholesome.| 20, Never allow drugs to bo administered to.your horse without your knowledge.They | are often not needed to keep the animal in health, and may do the greatest and most sudden mischief.CANADA.The True Witness says: On the afternoon of November Gth, Miss Ettie Radakir, daughter of Mr Henry Radakir, of Muoer's Junction, New York State, renounced Protestantism and was received into the bosom of Holy Church at Hochelaga, Montreal.Miss Radakir arrived in| this city a few weeks ago on a visit to her uncle, Mr J.Radakir, of 283 Notre Dame street east, ! and shortly after commenced to think seriously ' over the matter of becoming a member of the Catholic Church.She sought the advice and! instructions of the Chaplain and Nuns of the Convent of Jesus and Mary, who willingly imparted to her all the necessary information, and prepared her for the holy rite of Baptism, which tinally took place yesterday afternoon in the Church of the Nativity in the presence of a number of her friends, the Chaplain of the Convent officiating at the imposing ceremony.The SiS.Vorsetzen, when leaving Hamburg for Montreal, on her last trip, picked up a large dog a mile out at sca.The animal had evidently been dropped by some vessel and was swimming for dear life, having, apparently, been a long while in the water.The ship was hove to on the dog being observed and a Loat sent to his rescue, ou the approach of which the creature made for it and did his utmost to scramble into it, but-was so exhausted that he had to be lifted in bodily.The dog, during the stay of the ship in Montreal, might be seen daily on the wharf gambolling about, and was visited by many persons curious to see the occan waif, He is quite young, of the Swiss breed and as large as an ordinary mastiff.One hundred dollars was offered the captain of the Vorsetzen, Wednesday for the dog, but he refused to sell him for any money.\u2014 Star.At the session of the Quebec Dairy Association, held at St Hyacinthe on tha 13th inst.Mr Barnard announced that Mr Macpherson, the well-known cheese manufacturer, of Western Ontario, who controlled over 60 factories, and was known to all dairymen as the eastern cheese king, was present, and he was sure they would all be glad to hear from him.(Applause) * Mr Macpherson in complying referred to the great interest which he had in tho province of Quebec in one portion of which\u2014tho county of Hun- tingdon\u2014perhaps the most prosperous portion of his business was carried on.It was now some ten years since he had first commenced business in that county, At that time the system of cheese factories was in a very backward condition and a number of factories that bad been established failed owing principally to the inexperience of their originators.Since then, however, the industry had made wonderful progress and now the county possessed some thirty-tive cheese-factories, the largest number he considered contained by auy county in the province.The influence of these cheesefactories on the general farming community had been very marked and a great boom of prosperity had been witnessed in that county since their establishment.The farmers were more and more realizing the benefits of the dairy industry to their farms.Although a large amount of money was received from the factories themselves there was a greater factor still and that was the effect of the dairy industry in improving the fertility of the soil from year to year, thus giving a large proportion back to the farmer.If the dairy industry was therefore of such importance it should be their duty to improve it to the highest possible degree.There, however, remained much to be done in this respect.How many farmers were there who allowed the most important part of plant food to be carelessly carried away into the river?Regarding the question of skim wilk and full cream cheese he remarked that several factories, to his knowlege had started the skim cheese, but bad found that they could not compete as they lost their reputation for making the best article.They should endeavor rather to raise the standard of excellence of their article and they would be then able to command a good price, whereas if they strained their milk aud wade an inferior article they could not expect to obtain a high reputation.He would also remind the farmers that a great deal depended upon the cleanliness and condition of their milk.He would urge the manufacturers to study the most improved methods of butter and cheese making, especially the Cheddar system.No man could compete in the industry to-day without intelligence, and they must work intelligently in order to obtain the greatest results possible from their vocation.Mr Macpherson concluded by remarking that a convention would be held at Huntingdon during the approaching winter, to which he as president cordially invited the members of this association, The Witness of the 14th contains the report of an interview with & young man who was confined in Longue Pointe asylum.His fits of ition induos bad habits and cause swollen feet and other | ber, all the time in the farious ward, except the stantials of life they required, If necessary

upper flat among the violent ple, and put me in one of the cells at once.hese cells wero not much wider than a doorway aud there was nothing in them but an old straw mattreas to lie and sit on.They put a leather belt around our waists and our hands were fastened to it, so that wo could move them must be \u201cstooped.\u201d Heat and dryness cause back and forth and by alipping the belt up we, could feed ourselves.They gave us nothing but shirts to wear, and sometimes I did not even have that.I think that they kept me in the cell oftener than they let me into the corridors.It was quite dark in there all the time, day or night, and all you could do was sit on the mattress or lie down.The only opening was a littlo placo in the duor where they put our food through.In the morning they gave me tea and bread, aud for dinner we had tea, bread and meat\u2014generally a kind of stew.Sometimes 1 would not get avy dinner, and then I would get so hungry 1 would feel around for the crumbs I had dropped and cat them.In the corridors they let us walk up and down.That was all the exercise we could get, and wo had to sit down on hard benches.From the windows you could see quite à landscape.[Here his face lit up).Wo could see the river, and that was a great comfort to me.It was the only thing pleasant to look at.1 remember whicn Dr Tuke, or at least it must have been he, visited the ward, as there were a lot of gentleman (I knew Dr Ross among them), came through the ward.They just looked at mo through the hole.1 had no chance to talk to them at all.1 was very sick, and I felt tho chills of fever and aguo, but the entire time I was up there the doctors never examined me personally and I got no medicine.But nearly every day I had brandy and milk.I was awfülly cold at night, and had nothing on, and only tho mattress to lio upon, 1 tried to lic under it, on the hard floor, to cover me, for the keepers kept looking at me through the little place in the door; but it was so hard on the floor that I tore open the tick, put the straw out to lie on and covered myself with the cloth of the tick.Then they fastened my feet to the leather belt around my waist so that I could not beud my legs, and kept me that way for a day or so.The first while I liad irous or straps on my legs, and they hurt me very much indeed; but I got used to tho straps on my arms at last.One timo the keeper threw me into my cell after I had been making a fuss about my food, or something, and my head struck against the corner of the cell so hard that it was cut open.Then it had to just got well again.The keepers used to carry big leather belts at night and they used to poun the people a good deal.One night one of them came into my cell and pounded me on tho side with it.I Pad been talking in wy sleep or something.They used to wash us once or twice a week, and they were not very particular about it.Sometimes during the night it was very close ; the smell was something frightful, but they kept the windows open and there was generally a breeze in the corridors, The noise at night was just awful, they screeched and howled aud sowe of them would sing all night, but generally the poole were quiet enough.There were some of them pretty rough, but I did not have much trouble with them, It was awful to bo among them tho.When L got down-stairs in the private ward it was almost like being free.The room was a nice enough one, and had water to wash in and could go out on the galleries, but it was monotonous looking at the other galleries all the time.The keeper was very kind, I was allowed my own clothes, and was left alone, with no one to vpy on me.The board they gave was very good, and during the three wecks I was there I gota great deal better, but 1 was vory glad to get out.Last week, at Ottawa, a large meeting of French Canadians was held on Monday night to organize a society for the colonization of the Lake Temiscamingue District.Bishop Duhamel, of Ottawa, and Bishop Lorrain, of Pontiac, were present.A number of gentlemen, who have recently visited the district, spoke highly of its fertility and adaptability for agricultural purposes, and steps were taken to secure a tract of land from the Quebec Government, We have frequently commented on the heavy exports of cheese from Montreal which the present season has witnessed, and now propose to point out an instructive comparison, which indicates that weare pushing New York hard for the first place in the export cheese business.The figures furnished are, perhaps, the most instructive facts that have been produced during an interesting season.The exports from New York from May 1st to November 10th were 75,465,285 pounds, which is equal to 1,500,093 boxes, allowing fifty pounds to the box, which we believe is the average weight of a box of American cheese.From the opening of navigation to date the exports from Montreal were 1,095,106 boxes, which reckoning the average weight of Canadian cheese at 60 pounds to the box, is equal to 65,706,360 pounds, a difference in favor of New York of 9,738,925 pounds, which is equal to 195,178 American boxes, or 162,648 Canadian.Although these figures are approximately correct, and point an iostructive moral, the comparison is not so favorable to us as it would seem, as about 10 per cent.of our exports consist of New York state cheese, but they clearly show that the Canadian cheese trade is developing with remarkable rapidity.\u2014 Gazette.; The number of immigrants settling in the Dominion from the 1st of January to the 1st of November was 97,530.Many farmers

The cireum- stances indicate a murder for money.Stand- ring was one of Colorado's pioncors, and was quiet wealthy.Ilo belonged to the anti-poly- gainy branch of the Mormon Church.A pathetic ncident at a New York voting- plate was the death of Daniel Gilderslceve, aged 86, who would vote because he thought it would be his last time, and who fell dead with bis ballots in his hands just before he reached the box and while the crowd, that had made room for him at the head of the line, were cheering him loudly.Kido, an attache of the Japanese legation at Berlin, recently embarked at Marseilles

mystery, or business that will benefit herself or others; not even in amusing herself or skipping on the grass plots with laughter of her mates, but simply and solely in raging from dawn to dark, to

place as stated.The facts were not denied, but it was proven for the defence, that when the bank closed its doors Mr Buntin had not the slightest idea it was in as bad a way as it turned out to be,and honestly believed, not merely that there was enough to pay the depositors, but also to recoup the shareholders, and when he drew the money he was positive not only that he was obtaining no undue preference, but was ignorant of the law forbidding such withdrawal.This was so amply substantinted that the judge in charging the jury declared it was clear Mr Buntin had no improper motive in drawing the money and did so in ignorance of the law.The jury, how- over, found him guilty.Sentence was suspended to perylit of an application for a new trial.Should the worst comme to the worst, Mr Bontin will only be fined.He loses by the bank $114,000, being its largest shareholder.PECULIARLY discreditable revelations have! come out in a contested election case in On-' tario.Mr Allison, the opponent

is entitled to the same loyal support and bolder and more eelf-sacrificing championship, just because he is weak and needy and hated by his late kindred.While the reasons hinted at may partly account for the apathy shown by those who call themselves Protestants but who are not Christians, we think the shameful shortcoming in duty towards the French Protestants in their persecution is owing to the timidity that prevails among the English-speaking population of the province.A small minority, living in the midst of a people with whom they have intimate business, political, and social relations, they fear to give offence by pursuing the course their consciences dictate, and submit to treatment they feel they ought to energetically resent.Without going into this matter, and proving how their

of being indicted ac- |cording to the tenor of the coroner's verdict, they wero simply accused of \u201cbreaking and injuring a dwelling-house,\u201d The trial began at 10 o'cluck in the forenoon, and was harried through in less than 4 hours, most of the time being occupied by the addresses of the lawyers for the defence.Mrs Rouleau and her daughter Melina were examined, but neither professed to bo able to identify the young men as the assailants on the night in question, with the exception of Berthiaume, whom the mother said she knew by his voice.Louis Prejent testified that the door had not been burst open at all, and that only a panel in the upper half, and that a cracked one, had been broken.Col.McEachern said the accused had voluntarily admitted to him that they had been in the scrape and that they had gone to the house with no intent to do harm.The inmates did not bear a good reputation.The essential witness for the prosecution, Narcisse, the dead man's son, was not produced, the bailiff reporting he was vnable to get him.Mr Bergeron, M.P, addressed the jury in French, and Mr Curran, QC, in English, and a verdict of not guilty retumoed, when the accused wero congratulated by their connections, who filled the court-room, on their escape.The case against Donat Dorais, of St Chrysostom, for incendiarism, was then proceeded with, The prosecution was conducted by Mr St Pierre, engaged by the insurance company, and for the defence there was M.J.Quinn, A.Auge, and L.S.Seers, The case lasted until Saturday, covering 5 days, and from the strange character of the evidence, deserves to be regarded a= a cause celebre.The chief witness for the proses cution was a son of Leandre Vachon, the well- known storekeeper of St Louis de Gonzague.He testified that on the might of the 10th August, he had gone to his bed, but from being unwell, could not sleep, and was looking out at the window, the night being warm, with bright moonlight, when, about 1 o'clock in the morning, a buggy drove out of the 4th concession road and turning to the east, passed his father's house, and wheeled in towards the butter factory, where it stopped, but he could not see it.He saw the buggy distinctly, it was piano- shaped, drawn by a dark brown horse, with one man.Five minutes afterwards, a man walked under the window, and proceeded to where the buggy was standing.Then he heard the sound of 8 blows, as on a door or window.In the course of a few minutes the buggy returned, one of the men walking with an overcoat over his arm.He got in beside his companion, when the horse was whipped up and drove off furiously back the 4th concession.He had his suspicions that the men were after no good and watched them, and had called to his father about them, who, however, had not got up.Five minutes after the buggy had isappeared, he saw the reflection of light on the fence, when be yelled fire, and running out, awakened the hetel-keeper, Archambault, when, hurrying towards the light they saw the buttor-factory was on fire.The fire was in the sccond story ; the ground flat was quite dark, and there was no fire in tho engine-room nor in the ice-house, where the butter wus kept.Saw no doors or windows open.A number who were present at the fire were here examined, and gave most contradictory evidence, showing eithor that they were very cxcited at the time or did not want to tell all they knew.While break in and save its contents, and the men the door.lived some distance sway at once said, on hearing achon's story of to Chrysostom, they put up their horse, and horse, warm, wi they alleged there was no fire in the milk-room, .they could give no reason why they did not Athelstan custom-house, the nominee of the shoulders and ribs.Going to the house, altho it was very early, they found old Dorais up, who was unconcerned and asked What is the news?when they told him of the factory bein burned.Devid Wilson was examined and wid he made a very early start to get a load of brick, and roused Laberge, the blacksmith at Aubrey, to get up and shoe his horses.While that was being done, and he was standing at the door of the shop, a buggy drove past with two men in it, whom he saluted, but they made no reply.The blacksmith asked who they were, when Wilson replied that he thought one of them was young Dorais.When he got his horses ready, he started for Ormstown, and met Lepage and St Ooge as already related.A great deal of confusing cross-examination ensued as to when Wilson left Ormstown, what hour he met old Dorais on Fertile Creek road on his way to St Louis to see about the fire, the object being to break the forcs of the testimony that young Dorais had admitted to Wilson he was in the buggy that passed him while in the blacksmith shop.Tho prosecution showed that the Dorais alone had any motive to byrn the factory.They had run it at a loss, when they sold it to Lepage for $2000, payable in four yearly instalments out of the profits.Lepage had had it 2 years, and had not been able to make the payments, so that, by burning it, the Dorais would get the $2000 for which it was insured in the Royal.Substantially this was the case against the prisoner.The defence led two lines of proof, 1st, that the fire was not incendiary, 2nd an alibi, Lepage acknowledged that on Sunday evening he had looked into the factory to see that all was right, Two young men were with him, and he was smoking a cigar.Could not swear that, while in the factory, he had not thrown away the ci-ar stump, but was certain if he had it could not have caused the fire, as he was not in the upper story and the floor of the room where he was was kept so wet that it could not take fire from the stump.The fire had taken place on Monday morning, and there had been no light or fire in the factory from the Saturday.As to the alibi it was proved that voung Dorais had gone on Sunday towards Havelock, where there was some horse-trotting, and when he got back in the evening his father had scolded him for having over-driven bis horse, which was warm.Young Dorais then went into the village, sat some time with companions on a hotel gallery smoking, and visiting Dr De Martelliere\u2019s, remained there until half- past 10.He then walked up and down the street with his companions until half-past 11, when one of them said it was too late for him (Dorais) to walk home, and he had better go with him.Dorais did so, they slept together, and the young man swore when he rose at 4 o'clock be left Dorais asleep.The jury, after a brief deliberation, brought in a verdict of not guilty.Josephte Berthiaume of Ste Barbe, who has been in prison for 13 months on a charge of child murder, was formally acquitted by consent of the crown.: Michel Desgroseillers, charged with stealing 20th of tobacco from Louis Leduc of St Louis de Gonzague, withdrew his plea of not guilty, and, by consent of crown, his plea of guilty to the lesser charge was accepted.The court, lasted from the 4th to the 15th.HUNTINGDON, Mr J.L.Cowan has received word of the death of his brother Robert, who left for California 15 years ago, but has visited his friends on two occasions.He was working in the mine of A.Brooks, near Meadow Valley, Plumas county, Cal, and on the afternoon of the 30th Oct., was breaking rocks, when a cave in took place, burying him under it.Men set instantly to work to dig him out, but 20 minutes elapsed before he was rescued.He was alive, but in, a sorely mangled state.He was carried to the house, but the only words he spoke were, Lay me down.He diedin 20 minutes.He was much respected by his associates, who paid the remains all honor, and took them over the mountains to Meadow Valley for burial.He was a son of the late Alexander Cowan, was 42 years of age, and unmarried.On Monday there was shipped from the station 5 pure-bred Clydesdales.One was Mr David White's 2-year old filly, which took 2nd prize at the fair, and 3 two-year old fillies and 1 two-year old horse colt, of the lot imported by Archd & Jas.Bell from Scotland last year.The purchasers are Stroop & Quick of Wisconsin, who are understood to have paid 33600 for the 3 colts.Messrs McFarlane & Macpherson settled up with the patrons of the Dewittville and of the factories east of it last week.The Dewittville patrons realized 85 cents for the

: In the first place, we received our instructions from the President, Mr D.Ross, to give our verdict on the best ridge, not the best pair of ridges, as Mr Lunan insinuates.On careful examination of the plowing, we gave our verdict as printed in the Gleaner the week following.Not until evening were wo aware of the special prizes to be given for the best pair of side ridges.As Mr Lunan I reply, it was on account of his bad beginning and bad finish.His plowing was very slacl put together, would not stand the tramp, and his last two rounds were laid pearly all on its back, so it was not very hard to cover the grass.With regard to the encouragement he received during the day, I would say that while it is a good thing for visitors, when they can do so honestly, to say cheering words to competitors, it is contemptible for a person to say to a plowman as he reaches the end of his ridge, \u201cHold on; you are doing well; make a good finish and you are sure of the 1st prize!\u201d and then, five minutes after, repeat the same words to the plowman\u2019s neighbor.Competitors should have more sense than to be so deceived, and that all cannot get first prizes.If Mr Lunan is satistied that he is a better plowman than Malcolm McNaughton let him give him a challenge to try it over again, for I hear he is ready to meet him at any time or place and for whatever prize Mr Lunan may name.After such a trial, Mr Lunan will know better than to insult any set of judges, as is too often the case at these township matches, With regard to his question about the finish, everybody who knows anything about plowing, is aware that, when the depth is 5 inches it is too flat and wide to cut 8 inches, as was the case with Mr Lunan\u2019s ridge, while McNaughton, who had not plowed over 7} inches, finished with between 6 and 7, and did 80 in a workmanlike manner.Yours, JOHN BARRIE, Elgin, Nov.19.Ove of the Judges.WEATHER REPORT sx Da Sumamirr.Temperature Bain Snow Highest Lowest In

Legislative Council having refused to enter into negotiations for joining the Dominion of Canada, remarks that the objections to the incorporation of any of the West India Islands with Canada are conclusive.There are overwhelming .reasous also against the proposal on the ground of political expediency, Tho Times suggests, however, that Canada should not allow the United States to obtain by fiscal agreements undisputed posses sion of the West Indian trade.The Times urges Canada to reduce duties on sugat imports from West Indies.Canada would thus open the West Indian markets to her own products such as corn, fish, and timber, which she is ablo to export as cheaply and in as large quantities as the United States.It would also enable Canada to compete with America in sugar refining and other manufactures by obtaining a cheap and plentiful supply of raw material, It rests with the Canadians themselves whether they will allow America to keep the monopoly of West Indian trade,

of an irregular mounted force of five hundred- men for service in Bechuana- and, + London Nov.15.\u2014Torquay, the fashionable winter watering place on the south coast of England, is at present stirred by a sensation of a most ghastly character.Nearly adjoining Torquay is the smart fishing village of Babbi- comb.e Conspicuous for many years among the residents of Baccicombe has been Miss Key, an aristocratic, wealthy and handsome unmarried woman of middle age.The lady resided in a palatial villa and was regarded by the families of the fishermen as an angel, because of her charities, and her accomplishments and entertainments were the envy of most of the fashionable visitors to Torquay.Some time ago Miss Key took into her personal service, as a valet, à young man named John Lee.He had come down from London and bore such strong testimonials as to worth and character from personal friends of the Key family that bet found little difficulty in entering the service of the lady.In fact the handsome youth deported himself with such tact and intelligence that he soon proved an invaluable protector to bis patroness from the intolerable impertinences of fortune hunters.His duties finally resolved themselves into those of an escort, and he waited upon his patroness wherever she went.This, of course, started much gossip on the part of the envious and thwarted, and this gossip gradually became quite exaggerated Last night the people of Baccicombe were startled by the discovery of flames issuing from the mansion in which Miss Key resided.The fire had evidently been burning for some time, as the flames broke simultaneously through windows in the different walls.The alarm was spread quickly and effectively.The villagers went to the scene in a body and the coast guard and local police force soon got control of the fire from without.They found that the mansion had been securely fastened.An entrance was forced and the fire extinguished.Miss Key was found lying upon the floor dead.She was nude and the body was partly charred.An investigation showed that her throat had been cut and her skull fractured.There were evidences that after a terrible struggle in her private apartments she had been dragged down stairs before being finally hacked to death.All the jewellery and portable valuables belonging to the lady were missing, and not a shilling of money was left in the house.The murder was at once set down to jealousy and the robbery as a ruse to misdirect suspicion.No trace of John Lee could be found, and it was feared that he, too, had been murdered.The country was at once scoured by the police, and the enraged fishermen, who eagerly joined in the chase for the criminals.After an all-night search John Lee was found this morning concealed in a stable not far from the scene of the murder.A large sum of money and much of the missing jewellery were found upon him.He was at once arrested and charged with the crime.He confessed his guilt and fully told the story.He admitted that he was an ex-convict, and had obtained employment in the service of Miss Key by means of forged letters.He said he had fallen in love with the lady, and, having no means to secure an acquaintance with her, resorted to this deceit for the purpose.After he had been inher employ for a time and had secured kindly recognition in his capacity of valet, his ardor getting the better of his judgment, he mistook the lady's favor for more than it meaut and made an avowal of love.Miss Key was horrified and attempted to correct his folly by showing him that his suit was both hopelesss and absurd.He persisted, and Miss Key finally ordered him out of her service and accused bim of being a mercenary adventurer.On the evening of the murder he forced another interview upon his mistress, and when she again treated his overtures with contempt he became enraged and attacked her.When he saw the blow was apparently fatal he resolved to rob the house and flee.After he had gathered up his plunder he noticed signs of consciousness in his victim, and then, being desperate, broke in her skull and cut her throat.t then occurred to him to drag the remains down-stairs, close the door and windows, and fire the house in the hope of burying the crime tempt was unsuccessful.The rebels returned filty men marc in mystery.He believed that if he could have Archbishop of ; of

state that trea], to protest against the recent interference > the mob with the meetings held by the Rev r Chiniquy in that city.Thirty-four ministers were present, connected with the Anglican, Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist, Congregational and Reformed Episcopal Churches, convened by the Presbyterian Committees of French Evan- gelization.The Rev Principal MacVicar was appointed chairman and the Rev Professor Shaw secretary.Letters of sympathy with the object of the meeting were read from the Rev Canon Norman and the Rev Canon Anderson.The Chairman aud the Ruv Messrs Doudiet and Cruchet gave statements of the circumstances which were the occasion of the meeting.The Rev Dr Stevenson spoke in cordial sym- jpathy with the object of the meeting, but strongly objected to the offensively controversial character of the addresses of the Rev Mr Chini- uy.Mossrs Doudiet and Cruchet testified that the recent utterances of Mr Chiniquy were mast courteous, affectionate and conciliatory and could give offence to no one.The Rev Mr Mackay maintained the right of Mr Chiniquy to treat any subject in any way he wished, and if opponents did not liko it they need not listen.He claimed that the Protestants of Montreal were too weak kneed, and on this account Romanists were becoming increasingly intolerant.The Rev Dr Potts said that in this matter we must leave out of sight altogether Mr Chiniquy and the church he represented.He maintained that at any cost the right of liberty of speech aust be defended in this British city and Province.He then moved, seconded by the Rev Mr MacKay : Resolved,\u2014\u201cThat in the opinion of this meeting, composed of the Ministers of the various Protestant churches in the city of Montreal, full liberty of worship and liberty of speech are rights which belong to all creeds and nationalities in the land, and should be freely accorded without hinderauce or question.\u201cThat the recent acts of mobs in this city, whereby several of the French Protestant churches have been repeatedly attacked and damaged, are a wauton and unwarrantable interference with these rights, such as merits the severest condemnation.\u201cThat while gratefully recognizing the service rendered by the police in restraining the violence of the mob, and in seeking to prevent further damage to property aud life, this meeting respectfully urges the authorities to take the most vigorous measures to prevent any continuation of these unlawful acts, and pledges to them its hearty encouragement aud support in so doing.\u201d The motion was carried unanimously and with enthusiasm.After short speeches by the Rev Messrs Galbraith, Lafleur, Upham, Fleck, Wells, Beaudry, Duclos, McCaul, Scrimger and Professor Camp- ell, Upon motion of the Rev Mr Lindsay, seconded by the Rev Mr Fleck, it was ordered that copies of the resolution bo sent to the daily ross of Montreal and Toronto to His Honor the ieutenant-Governor of Quebec, the Mayor, Chief of Police and Chairman of Police Committee of Montreal, and to the Protestant pastors of the city to bu read in the churches.Upon motion of the Rev Mr Scrimger, seconded by the Rev J.McCaul, a committee was ap- Pointed, consisting of the Rev Messrs MacVicar, otts, Lindsay, Doudiet, Wells, Shaw, Stevenson, Upham, Beaudry and the mover, to consider what further action it may be necessary to take to secure proper protection of Protestant rights in this city.\u2014Witness.THE PROTESTANT GUARD.The Gazette says: Lev Mr Chiniquy preached on temperance on Thursday night in l\u2019Eglise du Sauveur, Canning street.The church was filled to overflowing, even the open space near the door being filled with people standing.The Presbyterian students maintained excellent order throughout, the service being only ouce interrupted by about forty pcople leaving tbeir seats and tramping out.À number more had risen, when Mr Chiniquy, in a sarcastir, tone, said to the disturbers, \u201cGentlemen, yor, are very polite to disturb an audience this\u201d and the others at once resumed their weats, During the slight disturbance thus caused a lady is said to have fainted.On the strert everything was quiet, Chief Paradis having raade good his word that he would maintain order.The chief was in command of the central body posted in front of the church, while Sub-Chief Lancy organized the remainder into patrols, each headed by a sergeant, and these marched up and down the street, clearing away the crowd aud breaking up every little knot of persons as they gathered.No one was allowed to stand for a minute, and consequently the roughs were obliged to take to St Joseph street, where they collected in large numbers.Notwithstanding all these precautions several overt acts of violence were committed.A well-picked Lone was thrown among the police with such force that it was clear it came from the bands of no cook, and several stones were thrown at the windows but fortunately missed their mark.A half brick fell on the sidewalk, passing between some of the police but striking no onc.It is said these missiles were thrown from the roofs of the houses opposite.Just as the congregation left the church a procession was seen wending its way down the street from St Bonaventure street, and on arriving opposite the church a young man, who appeared to be in command, gave the words, \u201cCounter-march, halt, front,\u201d and the body was halted opposite the church, all the movements being gone through with military precision.The procession was composed of smart-looking young men, who seemed to be no tyros in military drill, and all were armed with clubs and axe-handles.They were of course set down for the rioters, and the chief went over to remonstrate with them, but was rather taken back when they told him they had come to protect Mr Chiniquy and escort him home.They refused to tell what organization they belonged to, saying simply that they wero \u201cthe Protestaut guard.\u201d Mr Chiniquy was handed into his car- the rebels returned in great force to Amderman, near Khartoum, 20 days ago.Gen Gordon sent two steamers to shell them out, but the at- | the fire

\u201cstedet, & double line marched each side of the carriage and the remainder brought up the rear marching in fours.On reaching corner of Bonaventure street a large crowd of roughs were found standing ready for mischief, but the sight of the imposing tained silence.The procession marched alon St Antoine street, up to Dorchester and roun by the Windsor hotel up to St Catharine street to the corner of Peel where Mr Chiniquy is stopping.The Rev gentleman mounted the steps and silence baving been obtained, addreas- disturbance and may \u201cGod bless you.\u201d After giving three more cheers the crowd formed into back to Phillips squave where specches were made urging the men to Le ready to turn out again on Sunday evening whon Mr Chiniquy would preach again and they expected their numbers would reach one thousand.The gathering then uncovered and sang \u201cGod Save the Queen,\u201d after which they dispersed.It was afterwards learn organization was formed at a mecting held on ganized they marched down to St Joseph street where they encountered the procession of roughs who had gathered to disturb the meeting.The latter, seeing this body approaching, very wisel kept out of the way and made no trouble.organization kept away from the church altogether, so a3 not to embarrass the police, until .they were notified that service was over, when : they marched down as aforesaid, keeping their formation better than many military bodies.The only disturbance that took place was when a rowdy took them for the rioters and shouted \u201cDown with Chiniquy,\u201d when one of the men stepped out of the ranks and knocked him down, SERVICE ON SUNDAY EVENING, Mr Chiniquy preached again on Sunday evoning in l'Eglise du Sauveur Canning street, but this time there was not the slightest disturbance of any kind, the mob having evidently come to tho conclusion that the authorities had made up their minds to preserve order.The police patrolled the street from Bonaventure to, otre Dame west, kaeping the crowd moving.Policemen were stationed at each corner to prevent crowds from gathering, This duty was only indifferently performed, however, and in somo cases the police, by entering into conversation with the loafers, wero themselves the , Sub-Chief | means of making them congregate.Lancy and Detectives Richardson and Gladu moved around from place to place dispersing the crowds and recalling the constables to their duty.A number of policemen were out in plain clothes, and did good service.The \u201cProtestant guard\u201d did not come near tho church in a body, but several hundreds of their number in parties of twos and threes kept walking up and down, ready to pounce upon anyone attempting to throw stones.Tt was stated that the rioters had gathered in a hall close by, where a variety performance; was supposed to be going on, but ===\" in reality they were said to be waiting to attack the \u201cguard\u201d \u2018when it came along.When the array was too

What a fine day I\u201d thought I, one December morning, in never mind what winter, as I got up and began dressing myself, as well : as 1 could, with fingers that absolutely ached from the cold, and a general feeling of conges- | tion in my inner woman ; \u201cYes, water frozen! hard and fast in the pitcher, and the towels: about as pliable as sheetiron.\u201d Then cast a despairing glance at the fireplace which yawned in black emptiness behind a screen of faded green paper which flut-, tered up and down as the wind poured down | the chimney.| \u201cHow I wish I wasn't a genteel pauper, and couldexchange places with the lazzaroui sunning themselves this blessed moment on the steps of St Peter's, eating macaroni by the yard and enjoying the dolce far niente as ouly light-hearted tramps have done from the days of Autolycus down.If it wasn't for papa, I should go strait back to bed, and stay there for a week,\u201d and I jerked the blind up, viciously, letting in a pale gray light, which seemed \u201cto make discomfort! visible, Outside, everything was snowbound ; the trees on the lawn, with every bow and twig outlined against the sky, looked like so many gigantic specimens of sea-weed ; the houses in the village seemed to be huddling together to keep warm, and the church spire to have moved up quite into our neighborhood during the night, though it was more than a mile away, while the only sign of life to be seen was a feeble column The prayer-bell rang ; it always does ring just at a certain stage of my toilet when I can neither go forward nor backward without considerable loss of time, and it is the signal for turning a somersault into my clothes and arranging my hair as with a pitchfork.that it was not long before I ran down stairs to what was really our living-room, though we might have christened it by any number of gen- reel titles, since it was at once drawing-room, worning-room, and library ; and here my heart went out to meet the two best things one could tind in similar circumstances : papa, with a pleasant smile of welcome such as relatives (morc\u2019s glorious coal-fire piled up in the grate with a reckless extravagance not often seen in our ménage, and only to be justitied by the low sonduct of the thermometer.Prayers ensued, then breakfast, and I was sitting on papa's knee, laughing and chattering, when there came a loud peal at the front door.\u2018It can\u2019t be Miss Cunningham,\u2019 I cried ; \u2018she spent the morning here yesterday, and Miss Scott is too much afraid of rheumatism to put her nose out in this weather; it must be Miss Gardiner ! Tidal wavesand earthquakes wouldn't keep her away from the rectory! It is delightful, pape, of course, to be the daughter of a particularly handsome, attractive widower, bat like other positions of trust, it has drawbacks.\u2019 Then getting quite up into the corner of the window, p! my face against the pane, aud got an obligue view of a small boy shivering on the steps, stamping his feet and blowing his hands.Was that the uniform of the telegraph company?Yes, and my heart gave a frightened thump against my ribs, a sort of avent-courier of those to follow.In a moment my dear old nurse, Jean, appeared with one of those dreadful yellow envelopes, which I have always had a horror of since the day I was summoned home from school by one to receive my mother's last kiss.In this case my nerves\u2019 dislike was justified.Papa tore open the envelope and read the contents.\u2018Your Aunt Betty is very ill, and Herbert has sent for us,\u2019 said he.\u2018What is to be done ?This is Saturday, and I can\u2019t get any one to take my place, and the Bishop comes to-morrow.You must go alone, he added after a moment's thought.\u2018Go alone, papa! I echoed, quite stunned by | the proposition, for I had never been fifty miles from home in my life.\u2018Yes, dear, and lose no time about it.You must catch the 12.20 train.I will take you to the station, and may see some one that I can ask to look after you.If not I will tip the guard, and he will take care of you.Herbert will meet you at his end of the line.Glancing a# the clock, I saw that it was half- t ten, s0 I burried off to my room.which fooked fifty times more dismal than before in the light of such depressing news, and my modest preparations for the journey were soon wade.Jean produced from her private stores à travelling rug and foot-warmer, hovered anxiously about me, snd gave me numerous injunctions, I was not to \u2018haver wi\u2019 strangers, nor lose my siller, part from my luggage, mislay my tickets sit in a draught, read in the train, or do à dozen other things, Aun impossibly discreet me was laid down for me, and I was promising obedience, when the cab came.Papa put me in and we were off Arrived at the station, we found a lady seated in the waiting-room almost barricaded from view by the of and boxes and wraps with which her maid and footman had sarrounded her, and while papa was getting my ticket for Carlisle, she subjected metoath > ly coldblooded, depreciatory scrutiny, all gulling because it was unresentable.m surprise, she proved to be an acquain- of papas; they exchanged grestings, and presently, to tell me that Mrs ing to London, en route for more To tance he came over, was presented, and two fingers and a cold stare The train or in, we hurried into our ERE e of smoke puflfed out by our kitchen chimney.| I scampered around withsuch Leirty good-will | the pity !) too rarely wear for each other, and a: take me under ber wing.I: him on the lator, and we were gliding out into the fiel For a little while some attempts were made to keep up a desultory conversation, but Mrs Grahame had no ides of boring herself with a prolonged tete-a-tete, so her \u2018poor head\u2019 began to ache early in action, and, pulling a French novel out of her bag, she was soon deep in it.I was left to my own devices.Greatly relieved at finding myself free from the necessity of manufacturing genteel remarks.I satand stared alternate at Gaines, the maid, dozing opposite, and the country through which we were passing, that is, what was visible of it, for it soon began to snow.At first, the flakes came gently down as if afraid of hurting themselves by ton sudden a descent, but as the forenoon wore away, the sky grew darker and darker, and we were finally enveloped in a furious blinding storm that shut out everything as completely as a curtain, Mrs Grahame, absorbed in her book, did not notice the charfige in the weather for some time, but when the failing light, the violent rattlin of the windows, and the intense cold aroused her, she «at bolt upright, looked out quite horrified, and waked Gaines.\u2018How idiotic I have been to stay so late in this barbarous country,\u2019 she grumbled.\u2018Pour me out some cordial, and give me your rug; I am balf frozen.\u2019 Gaines did as she was bid, and her mistress settled herself comfortably again in her corner, selfishly blind to the fact that I was almost an icicle and poor Gaines fairly chattering.On we went again in silence over the great, bare knobs that do duty for hills in Westmoreland and Cumberland, until we suddenly dashed into a small station.Mrs Grahame turned to me.\u2018This is L.I know the place very well, aud I shall get out and stop over until the weather moderates, she said.\u2018And leave me to go on alone?I cried, in utter dismay.\u2018You had better come with me, she replicd.\u2018It is quite impossible; I said, and forgettin all my dislike, aud pocketing my dignity, pointed out that the storm had spent itself, and , begged her earnestly to go on.| \u2018Tam very sorry, my dear Miss Weston, but I really can\u2019t risk my health for anything.You had really much better follow my example.No?Here! Here! (to guard passing), Open this door! Gaines, come.Good-by, Miss Weston.Ask your father to let me hear how you get to your journey's end.\u2019 So saying, she stepped out of the carriage, followed by her meek domestic, who murmured : \u2018I'm so sorry, miss,\u2019 in a subdued whisper, as she passed mo.\u2018Oh dear! What shall Ido?I thought, as I saw them disappear in the crowd, and could hardly keep back my tears.Then calling the uard, I gave him a balf-crown, and begged fim not to put any one in my carriage.\u2018All right, miss,\u2019 said he, touched his cap and went off.\u2018How silly 1am to be afraid,\u2019 I thought.\u2018This \u201cis England, and besides nothing remarkable ever does happen now-a-days.And lots of women travel all over the world, like Madame Ida Pfeiffer.and never come to grief.I won't give way to foolish, provincial ideas.I will be what papa often calls me, his plucky, sensible Pegey.hich i timulated by this high ideal, I leaned back, tucked in my rug, got out the lunch-basket, i made a hearty meal, and was ready to laugh at my fears.I had brushed away my crumbs, and was studying the A.B.C.guide when we stopped again.looked out, and along came a strange guard, followed by a tall man with a portmanteau.Not finding a seat in any of the carriages, they stopped at mine.\u2018Plenty of room here, sir, said the guard.\u2018No there isn't, I cried desperately.(Please don\u2019t put any one in.It's engaged, I added, rather mendaciously for a clergyman\u2019s daughter.\u2018No ticket up, miss, Sorry, but can\u2019t be helped, Everybody can't travel like the Royal i Family,\u2019 he replied, and putting in his key, unlocked the door.His companion entered, and walking quite to the other end of the carriage, seated himself.It was still intensely cold, and I was glad when the door was locked again, tho if I had dreamed what was to follow, I should then gud there have eloped with somebody, anybedy, regardless of age, station or condition.Blind man\u2019s holiday had set in, but I could see that my fellow-traveller had an eminently respectable air, which was extremely reassuring.He wore a pepper and salt suit, a quiet tie surmounted immaculate linen, and a long Prince of Wales driving-coat enveloped him so completely that I did not see his clothes in the order mentioned.Sealskin gloves and a \u2018pork- pie\u2019 hat, I also noticed.As soon as we were off again I got out my prayer-book, but had hardly begun to read when the spring of the little green silk blind at my window must have received some jar it was too weak to bear.At gll events it gave | way, and the blind rolled down its full length, shutting out the already failing light, and making it too dark to read.The gentleman came to my assistance, saying : \u2018Let me help you.I understand the catch, and fastened it securely into ita place again.I thanked him, apd went back to my book, but was annoyed to find that instead of returning to his place, he had taken a seat just opposite, and, I could balf feel, half see, was staring at me fixedly.Determined not to show that I knew he was observing me, I read on and on, persistently, or rather, I turned over the pages at regular intervals, tho the words conveyed very little to my mind.At last when that er unsupportably trying, 1 found some relief to my nervousness in shutting my book and putting it away.I I looked with earefal indifference at him, and past him out of the window.\u2018Wouldn't you like the Times or the Standard, Mise ¥ 1 beard bim say, and replied with frigid civilty, \u2018No, thanks it bas grown too dark to We rattled on in silence for some time after this, and, after staring intently at the scenery and my hands, and books, an , and everything that gave me an excuse for not looking at him, 1 determined to hasard a cold glance to show him that I wasa't frightened, and to sec if he was still looking at me.He was; our eyes met, and J returned, instantly, to the contemplation of my boots, Prescodly, to my intense relief, be pot wp, took off great-coat, folded, and it on tho mat 1 took advaniage of bis attention ( being diverted from me, to scan him narrowly, He seemed a man of about thirty, had a very le complexion, large gray eyes, and brown ir.His features were regular and well cut, his expression resolute, his whole air refined.Ho bad not in the least the appearance of a cad or a sporting character.He wore on the little fingor of the left hand a sapphire of great besuty and purity.I was beginning to feel a little at ease again, after noticing these details, and was taxing myself with foolish timidity, when my companion suddenly stoo down, picked up his portmanteau, put it on the seat by him, unlocked it, took out & pair of large, new scissors and a newspaper, laid them down, pushed the bag aside and leaning forward said, \u2014 \u2018Will you do me a favor, miss?Will you take these scissors and cut my hair all off close to my head ?\u2018He is mad!\" I thought, and my heart nearly bounded out of my bosom, and then almost ceased to beat.I expected him to fly at me with the wcissors, and, shutting my eyes, fell back among the cushions.Not belonging to the hysterical order of women I neither fainted nor screamed.I can never forget the agony of that moment, and my face must have shown something of what I was suffering, for I heard bim exclaim, \u2018Good heavens, she is d ying It was 50 awful to keep my eyes shut and not know what he was doing, that I opened thet, and there he was sitting quietly opposite frowning heavily, but with no frenzy in either eye or manuer.\u2018Sir,\u2019 said I, blazing out at him in a tempest of indignant revulsion, \u2018if you have seen fit to make me the victim of a practical joke, you have done the most cruel, uumanly, outrageous\u2019 ~\u2014\u2014sobs interrupted the stream of my eloquence and I broke down utterly.He looked at his watch.\u2018I have no time to waste, said ho, and, rising, rolled up his greatcoat, went to the window, thrust out his head, glaticed cautiously up and down the train, dropped the bundle and returned to his seat, while I watched him absolutely paralyzed by terror.My first impression seemed correct then, I was shut up with a lunatic! Many plans of escape flashed through my mind.Should T beat on the wall of my carriage to attract the attention of the people in the next compartment, or would this only be a signal for having my throat cut, or being thrown out of the window?The doors were locked ; to jump out would be certain death, The guard, I knew, was in the last van of the train, and how could I give the alarm ; or if 1 did, what might not happen before the train could be stopped ?Could T climb out on the little ledge that runs along the train for use of the guards?1 thought of all these plans only to reject them as hopeless, and was wondering widly if I could clamber up on the roof, when my companion spoke again : \u2018You are evidently frightened to death.I daresay you think me a madman, but I an not.Now, look here, be a sensible woman; doas I tell you and you've nothing to fear.\u2019 His eyes glittered with repressed excitement, his pallor was almost startling, he shuffled his feet nervously as he spoke, but there was something so rational in his voice and manner, that what he said was true, tho I had heard that lunatics were bad judges of lunacy, so my poor heart, which had died and been buried, rose again in a leap of thankfulness.Taking the Times supplement, he spread it out on his knees, and, offering me the selssors, said, \u2014 | \u2018Now, then, cut off my hair.\u2019 .\u2018Tean\u2019t! IT won't! I replied, relieved of my worst fears.He calmly got a pistol out of his portmanteau, cocked it, and said,\u2014 \u2018Yes you will, and pretty quick, too.\u2019 I saw there was no use arguing the poiat, so I got up, and steadying myself as well as I could for the motion of the train, proceeded to eut off, with reckless snips, a fine, thick suit of silky brown hair, thiuking all the while: \u2018Oh, if papa or Jean could just see me In spite of trembling fingers and sundry lurches to the left and right, i was only a few minutes at work, aod the most experienced could not have left less hair in the same time.As the locks fell on the paper he gathered them up, carefully, and when I had done, rolled the paper up and put it in his portmanteau.\u2018Some or wife or mother, perhaps, has a lock of that air among her most precious possessions,\u2019 I thought.He ran his hands over his head, got out a hand-glass, took a look and said, \u2018Take a little more off around the face I shaved away most obediently, until he was satisfied.Ï \u2018There, that will do, thank you.Now turn\u2018 your back, and look out of the window, uatil I tell you to turn around.I'm going to change my coats, he then said.I exclaimed indignantly, \u2018I decline to do any-' thing of the sort.\u2019 \u2018Then you will wish you had,\u2019 he coolly replied, as he rose and took off his coat and waistcoat.Of course I lost no time in carrying out bis suggestion.When he gave me leave, I turned, and saw, instead of the young man I bave described, a stout old clergyman in full clerical costume of a severely bigh church\u2019 cut, the roses of innocence blooming on his cheeks, his beautiful gray hair flowing from under a shovel hat, a beard to match, half con- csaling, half revealing a waistcoat buttoned up to his chin, and a spotless strip of linen that: did duty for a collar, while the good man\u2019s weak eyes blinked behind a pair of tinted glasses, He looked a venerable and affecting incarnation of the Decalogue, the Thirty-nine Articles, and the Athanasian Creed.\u2018I see you think my disguise a good one, said he, and indeed my amazed expression must bave proved that.\u2018Sit down, and I will tell you why I am wearing it.\u2018You seem a woman to be trusted, and I don\u2019t think you will betray me, when you know my history.\u2018My vame is Wilson, and I have been for five years cashier of à baok at G.Ever since my marriage I bave lived far beyond my means, to gratify my own and my wife's extra tastes.I got terribly in debt, and took to betting gambling.And then'\u2014he paused for a moment and shuffled uneasily on his seat, \u2018I was obliged to have nome money, sad I forged our manager's name for two thousand pounds.\u2019 There was a silence.Ho seemed absorbed iu gloomy re on.\u2018 *As soon as it was done, I would have given life to undo it.Two days ago, Can it be pe two days?Oh, why did I ever do it] Why did I do it ?bares from him, getting .out of ri up, be turned his back to me and the window.His evident distress touched me, but I could.find nothing to say that did not sound intrusive.Presently he sat down again, and went on in a low, quiet voice.\u2018l was in despair.I determined to kill myself, and went home to get my pistols.I let out of the way, wy wife was dining out.I had to pass through the nursery to get to my dressing-room, and there I found my little boy asleep in his cot.\u2019 He paused again for a moment.\u2018I have not been happy in my marriage.My wife never cared for me; she married me to pique another man, to whom she had once been engaged.But I care more for my boy than anything else in the world, and the sight of him, and the thought of all the ruin and disgrace I had brought upon him, was so torturing, that I was more bent than ever upon ridding him of such a father; but I thought I would kiss him first, and I must have been rough, for the littie fellow opened his eyes, and put his arms around my neck.I lifted him up, and as 1 did so my eyes fell upon a roller suspended at the head of his bed with a prayer and verse for every day in the year, and upon it the words: \u201cIn all their afiliction He was afflicted, and the angel of His presence saved them: in His love and in His pity He redeemed them, He bare them and carried them all the days of 0 J \u2018It reminded me of my mother, somehow.I laid my boy back in his bed and kneeling down said the first prayer that had crossed my lips for years.I determined to go away somewhere and lead a new life, and try to make reparation if I could.He stopped, and Iam not ashamed to own that he found me\u2019 crying.The simple recital of his teraptation, his fall, and the misery it had brought was so affecting, that not even bis disguise could war its effect.*You are sorry for me,\u2019 said he, huskily ; \u2018God bless you for it.\u2019 \u2018What are you going to do?I asked us soon as I could.\u2018Make my way to the nearest seaport and go to America If I can get anything to do, I shall send for Mary and the child, when this blows over.They are with her father now, and he will not let them suffer for my sin.I wore this dress at a fancy ball once, and no one knew me, so I thought of it when Iwanted to escape, When we get to Carlisle the train will be searched, and if Tam not discovered then, I thiuk I shall get off, My sympathies were thoroughly aroused.\u2018I will help you; 1 said.\u2018Give me your ticket, and when they como, I will answer for you.Don't say a word.And I hope you will come back to England some day, a good honorable man, respected and trusted by everybody.I believe you will, too\u2019 I added, determined to encourage bim in what I know would be a fearfully up-hill task.\u2018You will be tempted to despair often : to fall still lower; to wander from point to point.Don't do it.Choose a place and live in it for thirty, forty years, as long as Gad spares your life, so that every word and act will bear the closest scrutiny, \"If you have sinned deeply, you can repent nobly.\u2019 Ho did not say a word, but locked ab me with infinite gratitude.I could see that he was touched to the quiok, The train was now slackening its speed.We were entering the suburbs of Carlisle, \u2018Tell me your name ; I should like to know it, said he, I wrote it with my address on a slip of aper, and gave it to him, saying, \u2018Let me now if you get there safely.\u2019 By this time we were within a few hundred yards of the station.My heart beat almost to suffocation, when, with a sudden jolt, we came to a standstill.I putmy head out.There was a large crowd of people elbowing each other and any number of trains waiting for passengers.Quite at other end of the platform I saw a policeman, a detective in plain clothes, and the guard I bad tipped.\u2018Coming, I whispered, and got the tickets \u2018ready.Ou they came, inspecting each department in turn, until they reached ours.I was in agony lest the guard should remember me.Stopping, and opening the door, he held up his lantern.Mr Wilson turned his face toward it.The light fell full upon his spectacles.\u2018I've got the tickets,\u2019 I said.\u2018All right,\u2019 he replied.The men looked in and hurried on.How I blessed the guard's bad memory and my insignificant appearance, .My companion rose half, held out his hand and then withdrew it, slipped off his sapphire, held it toward me and said, \u2018Take that, won't you ?It was my mother's\u2019 I shook my head gently, he laid it down on the seat by me, and before I could remonstrate had alipped out of the carriage, made a short cut across a parallel track and was gone.My aunt did not die; I had a pleasant visit; pape came for me, and going back to Scotland I did oot get so much as a cinder in my eyes.You can fancy what a sensation I created when I related my adventure.Papa declaes that my skin has been green ever since, and I have always wondered that a particle of coloring matter remained in a single tube of my hair.About six months afterwards I got the follow ing letter, which explains itself: \u2018PLATTSTOWN, COLORADO, June 20th, \u2018DEAR MADAM :\u2014In accordance With my pro- mine, I write to lot you know that 1 reached America safely, and have made a home, or, at least, laid the foundation of ono, in this thriving town, having bad the good fortane to get & position as chief olerk in à large house here.My employers are very kind to me, and I mean to make it the business of my life to deserve their good opinion.The salary is email, but I ha saved onough to send for my wife and cbild, who t join me next month, \u2018I have not written to you before, because I wanted to wait until thero was something defivite to say of my futare, bat I need not say that not a day has gone over my head in which I have not remembered your advice, and blessed you for your goodness to me ;
