Dinah, believing that this pause of |wonder was in itself a relief for the sor- ‘rowing woman, said no more just yet, but quietly took off her bonnet, and then, motioning silence to Seth, who on hearing’! ‘her voice, had come in with a beating’ heart, laid one band on the back of ‘Lisbeth’s chair, and leaned over her, that she might be aware of a friendly presence.

Slowly Lisbeth drew down her apron, and timidly she opened her dim dark eyes. She saw nothing at first but a face—a pure,

Indignation Meeting at Little York.

Sin,-—A large and influential meeting of the inhabitants of Little York and sur- rounding districts, was held in the School- house, on Wednesday, the 10th inst., to give expression to their indignation at the gross piece of injustice perpetrated on them by the railway authorities in the closing of York Station.

The meeting was duly organized by ap- pointing A. Gill, Eeq., Chairman, and the undersigned Secretary. A Jetter trem Dr. Jenkins was read to the meeting, stating that he regretted his not heing able to attend, but expressing his sympathy, and willingness to doajl in his power to havethe grievance remedied. Mr L. H. Davies was also sorry that professional duties pre- vented his attendance.

Henry Beer, Esq., M. P. P., being called upon, condemned very strongly the acii np of Mr. Schreiber in this matter, referring

pale face, with loving gray eyes, and it! was quite unknown to her. Her wonder, increased; perhaps it was an ange]. But in| the same instant Dinah laid her hand on- Lisbeth’s again, and the old woman looked | down at it. It was a much smaller hand: than her own, but it was not white and delicate, for Dinah had never worn a glove in her life, and her hand bore the traces of jlabor from her childhood upward. Lisbeth |looked earnestly at the hand for a moment, and then, fixing her eyes again on Dinah’s face, said, with something of restored courage, but in a tone of surprise,—

‘Why, ye’re a workin’ woman!’

‘Yes, I am Dinah Morris, and I work in the cotton-mill when Lam at home.’

‘Ah said Lisbeth slowly, still wonder- | ing: ‘ye comed in so light, like the shadow on the wall, an’ spoke i’ my ear, ax 1. thought you might be a sperit. Ye've got! a most the face of one as 1s a sittin’ on the | crave i’ Adam’s new Bible.’

‘I come from the Hall Farm now. You) know Mrs. Poyser—she’s my aunt, and! she has heard of your affliction, and is very

= |sorry; and I’m come to see if [ can be an

help to you in your trouble; for I know your sons Adam and Seth, and | kuow you have no daughter, and when the clergyman

| hesitate

‘to the fact that if economy was the excuse.

the whole road might be closed op ‘he same plea.

Hon. Donald Ferguson, on being called on, said he considered the removing of this Station a very short-sighted piece of busi- ness on the part of the Chief Engineer, and thought that the Government should before sanctioning any such measure, emphasizing the fact that very few of the Railways and other public works of the Dominion do pay.

Mr. M. West thought the question at issue a gross outrage on the people of this section of country, and urged that all con- cerned should lay aside party feeling and unite as one man to dcfend their rights, which are being trampled on.

Mr, Donald Crockett was willing to admit that the receipts from York Station this year were small, but that facr could be easily explained, as this season has been an exceptional one. For example: Owing to the failure of the potato crop the shipmen!s of starch from this Station the present year are barely one-seventh of what they were iast. Consequently the present year's receipts could not, with any degree of fair play, be taken as a criterion.

Mr. George Vessey claimed that urgent

told me how the hand of God was heavy measures had depressed trade, and asa upon you, my beart went out toward you, | natural consequence railway receipts were and I felt a command to come and be to: small; and was of the opinion that the de- you in the place or a daughter in this grief, | priving of a whole township of the benefits

if you will Jet me.’

‘An! I know who y’ are now; y’ area Methody, like Seth; he’s tould on you,’ said Lisbeth, fretfully, her overpowering sense of pain returning, now her wonder was gone. ‘Ye’il make it out as trouble’s a good thing, like he allays does. But where’s the use o’ talkin to me a-that’» ? Ye canna make the smart less wi’ talkin.’ Ye'll ne’er make me believe as it’s better for me not to ha’ my old man die in ’s bed if be must die, an’ ha’ the parson to pray by ’m, and me to sit by by ’m, an’ tell me ne'er to mind th’ iil words I'n gen him sometimes when I wur angered, an’ to gi’ m’ a bit an’ a sup, as long as a bit an’ a sup he’d swallow. But eh! to diei’ the could water, an’ us close to m’, an’ ne’er to know; an’ me a-sleepin’, as if I ne’er belonged to *m no more nor if he’d been a journeyman tramp from nobody knows where.’

Here Lisbeth began to cry and rock her- self again ; and Dinah said,

‘Yes, dear friend, your affliction is great. It would be hardness of heart to say that your trouble is not heavy to bear. God didn’t send me to you to make light of your sorrow, but to mourn with you, if you will let me, If you had a table spread for a feast, and was making merry with your friends, you would think it was kind to let me come and sit down and_ rejoice with you, because you would think I sheutd like to share those good things; but [ should like better to share in your trouble and your labor, and it would seem harder to me if you denied me that. You won’t send me away! You're not angry at me for coming ”’

‘Nay, nay; angered! who said IJ war angered ? It war good on youto come. An’ Seth, why donna ye get her some tay! Ye war ina hurry to get some for me, as had no need, but ye donna think o’ gettin’ ’t for them as wantsit. Sit ye down; sit ye

down. | thank ye kindly for comin’, for it’s a little wage ye get by walkin’ through the wet fields’ to

seean old woman likeme. . . . . ¢ Nay, I’n got no daughter o’ my own—-ne’er had one—an’ I warna sorry, for they’re poor queechy things, gells is; 1 allays wanted to ha’ lads, as could fend for their- sens. An the lads ‘ull be marryin’—I shall ha daughters enoo, and too many. But now, dy you make the tay as ye like it, for I’n got no taste in my mouth this day; it’s all one what I swaller—it’s all got the taste o’ sorrow wi'it’’

Dinah took care not to betray that she had had her tea, and accepted Lisbeth’s invitation very readily, for the sake of per- suading the old woman herself to take the food and drink she so much needed after a day of hard work and fasting.

Seth was so happy now Dinah was in the house that he could not help thinking her presence was worth purchasing with a life in which grief incessantly followed upon grief; but the next moment he reproached himself; it was almost as if he were rejoic- ing in hia father’s sad death. Nevertheless the joy of being with Dinah would triumph; it was like the influence of climate, which no resistance can overcome. And the feel- ing even suffused itself over the face so as to attract his mothers notice while she wes drinking her tea.

of railway and telegraphic priviliges for the ‘sake of a paltry two or three handred dollars could not be condemned too | strongly. | Rubert Lawson, Esq., considered that a great injustice had been done there; and | spoke on the subject forcibly and to the peint. | Mr. A. Brown was of the opinion that if proper means were adopred by the railway authorities, this station could be made to pay as well as any other on the line..

The matter of depreciation in value of property was also referred to by several of the speakers, and many other arguments advanced of which it would be impossible to give even a synopsis without teking up too much of your valuable space. The feel- ing of the meeting can best be judged by the following resolutions submitted by Robert Lawson, Esq., seconded by Donald Crockett, E-q., and carried unanimously.

Whereas, This meeting has learned with regret and surprise that an order has been issued for the closing ot York Station, on the P. E. L. Railway; and

Whereas, ‘The said Station has been of great advantage tothe people, of not only } iitle York, but to those ef Covehead, Stanhope, Brackley Point, Marshfield and other settle- ;ments, giving them better facilities for shipping their produce, and also placing them in the matter«f telegraphic communicetion in the same position as other communities in the Deminion.

Therefore Resolved, That this meeticg pro- test aga:nst the clesing of York Station, as being a ietiegrade movement and etri- mental tothe interests of a large secticn of the Province.

Resolved Further, That the alleged foct that the receipts ia conrection with this Sta‘ion are not such as to warrant its maintenence il correct, willapply with equal force to a large proportion of the public works of Canada, the deficiency being made up in the increased facilities for trade and communication which they afford,

The following gentlemen were then ap- pointed a committee, to draw up a petition, and secure signatures thereto to be for- warded to the Minister of Railways, pray- ing that the station be re-opened. Mesers. A. Brown, A. Gill, Donald Crockett, Geo. Vessey, and Thoms Vessey.

After a vote of thanks had been tendered to the Chairman, and also to our local re- presentatives, Messrs. Beer and Ferguson, for their attendance, the meeting dispersed.
