ll's scand'lons, going back on your agreement that way.\u2018 There wus not nothing to bind the bargain, and Watertown lawyers tell me | uoedn't stand to it unless | want to; returned Seraph.\u2018You was to have two hundred dollars for your work, and yon'vo got il, though it ia morc'a the job's wyth, aud yo shall not gil no more of this money with my cansent\u2014so Lhoro.Tho astonishment in Experionce's face now workod itrelt into à ppyatost charautovistioaily mild.* [never would \u2018a thought this on yo, Boruph ; § never would have be lievod Fou'd go bugk on yowy word.\u2019 \u2018 Aper'enoe, jo can't sco thremgh a stun wall when the hole: +; big as a cart wheel.\u2018und | suppose you would stand being plucked till tho last pinfeather was gone before you'd make a tow.The money was not ging to you.It ix guing to the squire here, that hus got way than ha Knows what half what you are paying for it, asd § won't help alocg no inikity, J weald way by leading men of the town to not say nothing if ye Wa'at puying Sum, that ye wouldn't clsim noue of 40 to with, for a farm that ain't wath - more\u2019n the furm's wuth.It's a tern ble poor place to own us n gift.1 could buy you à better one to Wutor- town for the money, and, us tor belp- ing to have you swindled, I won't stand it.\u2019 The squires fuce wus à study meanwhile.lis pleased urbanity gave way lo astonishment, and tho astonishment was followed by a white rage, [rom which every truce of suavity aud self: control dimapposred.He burst forth: \u2018Yo won'Ustand it, won't ye! I'd like lo see you belp yourself.I'll teuch ye to talk about the inikity ofa church member that\u2019s practiced law hero forty years the sume as if l'A been admitted and sworn.l'A like to know what ye think of your own conduct.Ye married Sam Canary for nothing in the world but his pension money, and [ can prove it.I suppose you've forgot that I know how near guue Sam was wheu you come that night.| could show it up tv guv'ment us u fraud, and that would atop your pension quicker\u2019n lightning.Ye got bold of the wrong mun when ye (ried to browbeat mo, Mise Gates.\u2019 \u2018I never pretended but what 1 mar- vied 8am for his ponsion.I didn't murty bim lo \u2019blecge you, Square Sprague, and mebbe you'll find it out.And it anybody culls my marriage a fraud, I've got your certificate showing its legal and right.You're my witness, and it there's any fraud, there's more\u2019n me in it, you will find to your sorrer.No, the certificate ain't there\u2014as the squure mude a des erate lunge for her band-bag\u2014\u2018and there ain't po more money there neither, I knew Lhe kind of à man I was doaling with, and they're all safe to Watertown.You may talk till the cows como'\u2014as the squire broke into an angry torront of worde\u2014'but there aio\u2019t nothing je can do \u2018thout I ugree to it, and ye'll find it out after yo've stormed a spell, too.\u2019 This epeech did not quell the angry squire.He was so accustomed to dictating abeolutely Lo his littlo world on all questions whero the mysterious \u2018law\u2019 camo in that he was slow to comprehend that this woman had completely beaten him.The storm of his wrath raged on ; bat Seraph knew her groond, and was uot daunted.When the squire at last paused for breath, she rose to go.Sprague watched her iv dumb amazement.Ho .did \u2018wot move until he saw her in tbe buggy, backing slowly out from cover.Then he realized that if he eaw any of tbe pension money, he must make some torms with this woman, humiliating though it might be.He moved reluctantly forward.* What do ye calculate to do about it, anyway ?' ho asked.\u2018I oxpect to invest my money.Per- bape I shall buy a little pluce there is to Watertown or if I could get a good mortgage cheap enough, I might put it in that.\u2018 A mortgage ! That's jest what the trade we talked would amount to.1 supposed you meant to give it out right to Sper\u2019enco, but if you don't, why don\u2019t you buy the morigage, and let him pay you interest ?\u201c1ts too big; more'n the place is wuth, twico over.\u2019 * No such thing.The farm is wath every cent I'vo got on it.\u2019 \u201cIf you look ut it that way, we can't trade, that\u2019s ali,\u2019 and Seraph gathered her reins, \u2018 How much would yo give?Come wow, make an offer,\u2019 urged the squire, desperately, as he saw his chance at tho money vanishing.| : Wa'al,\" replied Seraph, with in.oreasing deliberation, \u2018you would be wall paid if you got a thousand dollars on't, but considering that I got the money cusy, I do\u2019 know but I'd give you twelve hundred.\u2019 \u2018Shacks! Yo don't mean that is all.\u2019 *I don\u2019t mean to pay no more than it is worth, you may rely,\u2019 she retorted.\u2018Now, square, I will tell vou what I'll do, and it is the lust cont I will do.If you'll bring that mortgage, and all the notes, and everything you hold against Sper'ence, down to Counsellor Smith to Watertown, Wednesday, and sign papers giving (hem all up to me, I will puy you fourteon hundred dollars, cash down,\u2019 \u2018Course I won't! Think I'm a fool ¥* replied tho squire, angrily turning back.\u201cTI be to Wateripwn Wednoday with the money,\u2019 she culled over her shoulder after him aa who drove away, She slappod u momont at the huuso and callod out Juliana: \u2018Don\u2019t youand Eper'onco ho ons bil crat down, Jul iany ; I will have the mortar, Wed.aecduy, and 1 will bpp right before rare Sprague's nose ses if I don't.1 shall have a little of Sam's money lofl tbat I would nut keep from you, ono minit if 1 could trust Sper'ence not to be wheedlod out ou't hy the fiquaro.Bat I guess I can whingle the houso and tix it up so it will bo like loiks, and the squarc cannot toaoh Àl.* * Ob, Seraph, oan you!

Speech!\u2019 And then tho eminent American \u2018norates,\u2019 while the impatient crowd gather around the band and (ulk with the musicians, who do nol understand a solitary word of English, until the time shall arrive when the speech is spoken and they are asked in to have sometbing.\u2014 RB.J.Burdette, in Brooklyn Eagle.\u2014__.Solving the Problem.Rose Terry Cooke alone of all writers of the day has at once recognized the dopravity of the ordinary boy, and devised a remedy.In a sketch of an ideal \u2018Happy Irland,\u2019 published some Years ago, she represents an inquiring visitor as huving been perplexed for a time how to account for the air of peace and quielnoss which pervaded the atmospbere.Atter a while it dawns upon him that thero are mo boys to be found, and inquiry brings to light the fact that until they are twenty years, or thoreabout, the boys are headed up in large and presumably woll ventilated barrels, and are fed und instrucied through the bung-holes, When set at liberty they have reached the yours of discretion and are able to take their places in the community without detrimont to their fellow- beings.The steel rail mills of the United States cun make about 1,600,000 tons of rails yourly, which is in oxcoss of the amount used in the country, and, therofore, none of them ave run to the limit of their capacity.The consumption varies greatly from year to yoar, being often twice as great in one welvomontih as in the ono preceding or following it.made at Toulouse that à woman sup: poeod to bave died of cholera was interred alive.The coffia was tempors: rily placod in a dead house, and when taken up again it was found that the position of the body had changed.\u2014 Bramination amply confirmed the vuspicion.It is to be feared this is & frequect ovont in panics about dis< ease.The German Govortinent is prepais ing for the expected invasion ot chol- ora by ordering physicians from alt parts of the empire to study the most improved methods of discovering the oroscope at Berlin, Dr.Koch, the: cholers expert, has been ordered to personally investigate the first euse- that appears, take measures to povent the » of the dissdao.The dreadfal discovery has bed - oxistence of microbes through the mi- - ow \u2014 A \u2014\u2014 \u2014 pp \u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014 np ns F5 r ae wo She starsteas Acavnal, ver The U.8B.Tarif.The ttes trade press of canada ste much encouraced by tie ro-uit of the Presidential, ciection in the Unued States, under the impression that the Damocrutic party will overthrow the protective tari.Wii.the exception of a few scallering iusbances, tig paess and orators of tho Demnocats stoutly denied that the writ was an issue in the electing und avoided caine Waite, wile ot Me, Roo.tasette, died Mies, ILS White of the Montreal on Monday veanine, acte an ives of a few ave lov enty-three yours, and had teen married not quite A large circle of friends Leurs, two yeurs.express ther sympathy with the be reaved husbatel au the andy of Mr.Geurge Muccougall, tather ot Mrs, White, The deceused Indy was very highly estecwed by all wien knew her - - \u2014 flor.J.HL Pope has been on au in- spoction trip o cr the Canada Pacitic RR, and the Northwest, the road prosiessivg rag.div ut the Ho reports work well douse, and peed its eu tire complet en next year, Toe cn tire bing, irelocis 4 tee dire to Adantic either west Jun, Habdax ce: Portland, for 5 about $100,000.600.Thi i les in sinker por, wil es Pei.Qututo I~ dread e do purchused or k. and ot pei y lav te Rook Inland, June 35, | oo \" Cers, Meal.Bram, Oats, Shorts, The Stanstead and HS TABLISIEBID XIN H.B.BRO FIRE INSURANCE À Sherbrooke Mutual Co\u2019y » 12888 BOARD OF DIRECTOR#S: @G.H.ALLEN, Waterloo.JUS.BEDARD, Richmond.Lt.-Col.B.T.MORRIS, Ascot.C.A.BAILEY, Cookshire.E.P.BUCK, Sherbrooke, Dr.T.M.PRIME, Knowlton, H.B.BROWN, Bherbrocke.8.H.C.MINER, Granby.J.L.TERRILL, Sherbrooke.WN, Prea\u2019t.4.H.ALLEN Vice-Pres\u2019t.GEO.ARMITAGE, Sec.-Treas, GEO.POMROY, J.A.C.GAGE, All rive 5 Age for Siausiead Lust.led Local Agt.for Btanetead West.losses libera.justed sud promptly settled.Ri carefully tak d y PINES avoided.corefully taken aud large cos a Quebec Central Railway.Fall and Winter Arrangement.Commencing Monday, Nov.3, 'S4 Na 4 Mixd , \u2014_\u2014 \u2014 L Yorn deal dunes is J LE arrive Boauocs Jot.16 reive Levis debeo Ferry.Late Te 00 tr Beauce Sete Sherbrooke, ° w E Leave Levis : Arrive Beause Jet.Leave Beauce Jot.Arrive Sherbrooke.Leave Levis for St.Joseph.Arrive Bt.Joseph.austeute Leave St.Joseph far Levis.|.6.00 Arrive Foie Fh .Mr Trains run on \u2018Eastern Standard me, Fifteen minutes allowed for refreshments at Beauce Junction.Sure Connections made at Sherbrooke with Passumpaic and Grand Trunk Railways for Newport, Boston, Portland, New Harlake Junct.with [ntercolonial Railway for River de Loup, Rimouski, Halifax, St.Jolin, and all points in the Maritime Provinces ;

Farmer and \u201cThe Maine Farmer says most kinds of fruit will keep better packed in Lar- rels.We have vever had appios keop better than when properly barreled.A friend told us the other day, that he bud kept apples almost the y car round by putting mn dry sawdust.\u201d A layer ot apples is put in the barrel us near as can by and not touch, They are covered over with the dry sawdust and ano.her layer ix put in and this is continued Gl the barrel is full.It is then beuded up naud kept Gill 10 is wunted for ure.Perhups it would not Pay to put up apples in this way loi murket, but it could be done fur private use without much trouble.\u2019 - Uudoutiedly apples keop in barrels as well as or better than any other way.Russets should be headed up to keep well, unless in a very dump cellar.The \u2018tussoting\u2019 is caused by an open stale of the pores of the skin, as cun be seen by the use of a magnifier, and this allows the escape of wator from the fruit, causing it to shrivel.\u2014 Dry clean sand (take or river sand, in preference to bunk sand,) if line and free trom grains, pebbles or shells, is the cheapest good material to pack apples in to make them keep.Fine plaster is equally good, Sawdust is apt to impart a taste of the wood.\u2014 Only perfect fruit, entirely free from insect marks or bruises, should be used lor this puciking, which will keep nearly any variety to ten Weckr longer than tts season when un- pocked.The packed apples must be kept in a cooi place.\u2014 Ve.Watchman, OE from tour The American Silver Product.From the days of Cortez.in 1521, down to the beginning of this century, and even to the presont time, except when interrupted by revolution, the Mexican silver poured forth an unceasing stream of silver, such as the world hus never seen.It is estimated that the vaiue of the silver coin and bullion of the eountry since the conquest i over $3,000,000, 000, and it is well known that some of the mines bave been profitably worked almost without interruption from that time to this, and that one of them, at leust, is still running out silver at the rate of 85,000,000 per year.Culitornia has yielded about $1,100, 000,000 of gold und silver.Nevada bas turned out something like 8300, 000,000 \u2014pussibly more, Suppose that all precious metal was silver dollars, and that enca dollar contained 412% grains, that sixteen such dollars would we:gh one that 70,000,000 for thirty years has been secured by the people of the United States.It would weigh 131,250,000 pounds, Now let us load this vust amount into wagons, Allowing 3,000 pounds tor each wagon, it would take 46,750 wagons.Allowing cighty wagons per mile, it would make u train of wagons 546 7-53 miles wines have pound, ard per annum long.0 \u2014 Now York is getting after the denl- ors in bogus butter.The lust legisla ture enacted & law making the sule of butterine and oleomurgarine à misde- meunor, punishable by a fine of not less than 8100, or not less than six months or more than one your's im prisonment, and by imprisonment, for one year for each wsubscquent offence.The dealers in genuine butter ure do- termined that this law shall be enforced, but the oleumargariue folks ae going lo test its conshitutionali- ty.The cold winds of autumn remind the farmers that it will soon Le Lime to put thoir cattle under cover.Le who has steers to shed should prepare to shed them now.Augustus Fitzgibbous Morau Fell in love with Maris McCan ;
