MORTGAGE SALE.

THE PIRATE.

By Sir Walter Scott.

CHAPTER XXXVIL

Over the mountains and under the waves, Over the fountains and under the graves, Over floods that are deepest, Which Neptune obey, Over rocks that are stecpest, Love will find out the way. Old Song,

The parting of Fletcher*from Claud Hacro and the sisters of Burgh-Westra, on the spot where it took place, was partly occasioned by a small party of armed men being seen ata distance in the act of advancing from Kirk- wall, an apparition hidden from the Udailer’s spy-glass by the swell of the ground, but quite visible to the pirate, whom it deter- mined: to consult his own safety by a speedy return to his boat. He was just turning away when Minna occasioned the short delay which her father had obse:ved.

* “Stop,” she said; ‘‘I command you! Tell your leader from me, that whatever the an- swer may be from Kirkwall, he ‘shall carry his vessel, nevertheless, round to Stromness; and, being anclrored’ there, let--him send a boat ashore for Captain Cleveland when he shall see‘ smoke on the Bridge of Broisgar.”

Fetcher had thought, like his messimate Bunce, of asking a kiss,, at least, for the trouble of escorting these beautiful young women, and, perhaps, neither the terror of the approaching Kirkwall men, nor of Minna’s weapon, might have prevented his being in- soleat. But che name of his Captain, and, stillmore, the unappalled, dignified and com- manding manner of Minna Troil, overawed

‘. pent ruled. the mood of the fiercest amongst

him. He made a sea-bow,—promised to keep a sharp look-out, and, returning to his boat, went ou beard with his message.

As Halero and the sisters advanced towards the party whom they saw on the Kirkwall road, and who, on their part, had halted as if to-observe them, Brenda, relieved from the tears of Fletcher’s presence, which had hither- to. kept her silent, exclaimed, *‘ Merciful Heaven! Minna, in what hands have we left our dear father?”

“* In the hands of brave men,” said’ Minna,

steadily—‘*I fear not for him.”

** As brave as you please,” said Claud Hal-| cro, “* but very datigerous rogues for all that.

I know that fellow Altamount, as he calls

himself, though that: is uot his. vight mame

barn ring with blood and blank verse. He

« **Reserve. your. corm:passion for those who need it,” said Minna, ‘*and fear nothing for our father —God knows, every silver hair on his head is to me worth the treasure of an uh- sunned mine; but I “know that he is safe

while in yonder vessel, andI know that he will be soon safe on shore.”

‘““T would I could see it,” said Claud Hel

cro; ** but I fear the Kirkwall people, suppus- ing Cleveland to be sach as J dread, will not dare to. exchange him against the Udaller. The Scots-have very severe jaws against thett- boot, as they call it.”

‘* But whoare those on the road before us ?” said Brenda ; ‘‘and why do they halt here se jealously ?”

‘They are a patrol of the militia,” answer- ed Halero. ‘‘ Glorious John touches them off a little sharply,—but then John was a Jaco-

bite, —

‘ Mouths without bands, maintain’d at vast ex- pense,

In peace a charge, in war a weak defence ;

Stout oncea month, they march, a blustering band,

And ever, but in time of need, at hand.’

[ faney they halted just pow, taking us, as they saw us on the brow of the hill, for a party of the sloop’s men, and now they can distin-

guish that you wear petticoats, they are mov-

ing on again.

They came on accordingly, and proved to be, as Claud Halcro had suggested, a patrol sent out to watch the motions of the pirates, and to prevent their attempting descents to damage the country.

They heartily congratulated Claud Halero, who was well* known to more than one of them, upor his escape from captivity ; and the commander of the party, while offering every assistance to the ladies, could not help eondo!- ing with them on the circumstances in which their father stood hinting, though in a deli- eate and doubtful manner, the ditliculties which might be in the way of his liberation.

When they arfivéd at Kirkwall, and ob- tained an-audience of the Provost, and one or two of the Magistrates, these difficulties were more plainly insisted upon.—‘‘ The Halcyon frigate is upon the coast,”’ said the Provost ; ‘she was seen off Duncansby-head; and, though I have the deepest respect for Mr. Troil of Burgh-Westra, yet I shall be answer- able to law if 1 release from prison the Captain of this suspicions vessel, on account of the safety of any individual who may be unhappily endangered by his detention. This man is now known to be the heart and soul of these bucanniers, and am I at liberty to send him aboard, that be may pinnder the country, or perhaps go fight the King’s ship ?~for he has impuaence enough fer anything.’

‘* Courage enough for any thing, you mean, Mr. Provost,” said Minna, unable to restrain her displeasure.

** Why, you may call it as you. please, Miss Troil.” said the worthy Magistrate ; “butin my opinion, that sort of courage Which proposes to fight singly against two, is little tter than a kind of» practical impudence.” i Se

‘“* But our father?” said Brenda, of the most earnest entreaty—" our father __the friend, 1 may see the father ot his country—to whom so many look for kindness, and so many for actual support——whose loss would be the extinction of a beacon in a storm, will you indeed weigh the risk which he runs, against such a trifliag thing as let- ting an unfortunrte man from prison, to seek his unhappy fate elsewhere?”

‘“‘ Miss Brenda is right,” said Claud Halcro ‘‘ T am for Jet-a-be. for let-a-be, as the boys says; and never fash about a warrant of liberation, Provost, but just take a fool's counsel, and let the goodman of the jail for

get todraw the bolt on the wixket, or leave

a chink of a window open, or the like, and we shall be rid of the rover, and have the one best honest fellow in Orkney or Zetland on the lee side, one bowl of punch with us in five hours.”

The Provost repied in nearly the same terms as before, that he had the highest respect for Mr. Magnus Troil of Burgh-Westra but that he could not suffer this consideration for any individual, however respectable, to ix fere with the discharge of his duty.

Minna than addressed her sister ‘in a tone of calm “and sarcastic displeasure.—** You forgot,” she said, ‘* Brenda, that you are talking of the safety of-a poor insignificent Udaller of Zetland to no less a person than the Chief Magistrate of the metropolis of Orkney—can yon expect such a person to condescend to such a trifling subject of consideration? It will be time enough for the Provost to think of complying with the terms set to him--for comply with them at length he both must and will—when the Church of Saint Magnus is beat down upon her ears.”

Patriotism versus Party.

(Montreal Star.)

We are not at al] surprised to find that some Liberal representatives from the Maritime Proyinces in Parliament hesitate to oppose the Fishery Treaty. They cah- not, if they allow themselves to reflect in- dependeatly on the subject, but see that the arrange:nent that has beén made is fair to all concerned, and is one which the Canadian Parliament can honorably satie- tion, The’Treaty does not require Cana- dians to make any concessions which are in the slightest degree humiliating. There is net « Maritime Province man who, if he had the making of the treaty himself, would not have cheertully conceded. to American fishermen entering Canadian ports in dis- tress all the advantages which the. treaty extends to them. They are nothing more than one neighbor is glad to extend to an- other who is so unfortunate as to need as- sistance. Permitting American fishermen to purchase supplies in Canadian harbors is a concession of great value to the Am- ericans, but is it without corresponding ad- vantages to Canadians? If it is an advant- age for the American fisherman to be able to. purchase supplies in Canadian ports, is it not also an advantage to the Canadian merchant and the © Can- adian tarmer to be able to sell him those supplies? It is quite true that being thus ebabled to purchase supplies near the fish- ing ground gives the dishonest American fishermen facilities for poaching and smug- gling, but we are not quite sure that he would not poach and smuggle if those faci- lities were denied him. And is not the advantage of haying the fishery question settledonce forall w rifice— ii sacrifice it is—on the part of Oanadiens. The comproiilise is not # very costly one if all that it requires is a-little extra vigilance and_exertion onthe part of our cruisers and Custom House officers. These are the only advantages that the treaty extends to the Americans without an equivalent, The admission of Canadian caught fish into American. ports free, in return fur the pri- vilege of buying bait and transhipping ear- goes in Canadian harbors, is, all things con- sidered, a fairdeal. Could any of the men who are denouncing the treaty have made a better bargain ; or if the responsibility of making an amicable arrangement with our American neighbors rested upon their shoulders, would they have felt themselves justified in rejecting this proposition? We do not believe that they would. The Cana- dian critic of the treaty, particularly if he isa member of Parliament, should try. to put himself in the place of the negotiators and ask himself if he could have devised a better compromise, one which would stand any chance of being accepted by the Ameri- can diplomatists, to say nothing of the American Congress and the American peo- ple, than that which has been made in the treaty.

Doutney a Little Ahead of the Facts.

. An Ottawa despatch to the Toronto World says: The statement made by Mr. Doutaey in Toronto yesterday that Sir John and Lady Maconald had banished wine from their table is as foolish as it is uncalledfor. Sir John, as I telegraphed on Saturday, gave a dinner at Karnsclitie that evening. Twenty members of Parliament were present. There were several kinds of wine onthe table. Neither Sir John, Lady Macdonald, nor the Premier's son par- took of the beverage, but such of the guests as desired wine were served, This i# the eustom at all the Premier's dinners during the session, at which members or a mixed as semblage attends. It is doubtful if Messrs. Crossley and Hunter authorized Mr. Doutney or any one else to make such a statement. on their behalf... Everyone who knows the ‘Premier intimately, or who partakes of the hospitalities of Karnscliffe, is aware that he hag become remarkably temperate in his declining years, that he has observed these principles for a considerable time, but thet he does not believe in alleged temperauce re- formers, many of them ‘*fakirs,” at best, using his name as 4n advertisement for their shows in this unwarrantable manner. 1. lil than Destitution in Arran.

Mr. Michael Davitt writes to the Dublin Freemar’s Journal that six hundred of the inhabitants.ofthe Arran Islands, on the west coast of Ireland, are utterly destitute, and that unless a supply of food is sent them forthwith, they will die of starvation. Nor is food for immediate consumption all that is necessary. ‘The supply of seed potatoes upon which these people had depended for the spring planting has been entirely ex- hausted to keep soul and body together, and it is almost as urgent that they should have seed for their subsequent mainten- ance, as that they should save relief for their immediate necessities. No such depth of misery has been reached by the people on the west coast,
