Mertoun could be prevailed upon to under- take the office of skudler, or leader of

| the band. Upon these occasions, full of fun and frolic, he led his retinue from house to house, bringing mirth where

he went, and leaving regret when he departed.

|Mordaunt became thus generally known, and beloved as generally, through most of the houses composing the patriarchal community of the Main Isle; but his visits were most frequently and most willingly paid at the mansion of his father’s landlord and protector, Magnus Troil.

It was not entirely the hear ty and sincere welcome of the worthy old Magnate, nor the sense that he was in effect his father’s patron, which occasioned these frequent visits. The | hand of welcome was indeed received as! eagerly as it was sincerely given, while the! ancient Udaller, raising himself in his huge | chair, whereof the inside was lined with well-| dressed seal-skins, and the outside composed | of massive oak, carved by the rude graving- | tool of some Hambugh carpenter, shouted | forth his welcome in atone which might, in| ancient times, have hailed the return of Jou/, | the highest festival of the Goths. There was| metal yet more attractive, and younger | hearts, whose welcome, if less loud, was as sincere as that of the jolly Udaller. But it is | matter which ought not to be discussed at the | conclusion of a chapter.

| CHAPTER III. | We have already mentioned Minna and} srenda, the daughters of Magnus Troil.

Their mother had been dead for many years,

;and they were now two beautiful girls, the | \eldest only eighteen, which might be a year| or two younger than Mordaunt Mertoun, the | second about seventeen. They were the joy} (of their father’s heart, and the light of his old

eyes; and although indulged to a degree! 'which might have endangered his comfort and ' \their own, they repaid his affection with a, ‘love into which even blind indulgence had not | introduced slight regard, or feminine caprice. |

icontemplative and high-minded | When Minna Troil heard a tale of |injustice, it was then her blood rushed to her cheeks, and showed plainly how warm it beat, notwithstanding the generally serious, com- posed and retiring disposition, which her countenance and demeanor seemed to exhibit. If strangers sometimes conceived that these tine features were clouded by melancholy, for which her age and situation could scarce have given occasion, they were soon satisfied, upon farther acquaintance, that the placid, mild quietude of her disposition, and the mental character which was but little interested in ordinary and trival occurrences, was the real cause of her gravity; and most men, when they knew that her melancholy had no ground in real sorrow, and was only the asperation of a soul bent on more important objects than those by which she was surrounded, might have wished her whatever could add to her| happiness, but could scarce have desired that, graceful as she was in her natural and un- affected seriousness, she should change that deportment or one more gay. In short, not- withstanding our wish to have avoided that hackneyed simile of an angel, we cannot avoid saying there was something in the serious beauty of her aspect, in the measured, yet graceful ease of her motions, in the music of her voice, and the serene purity ot her eye, that seemed as if Minna Troil belonged natur- ally to some higher and better sphere, and was only the chance visitant of a world that was not worthy of her.

The scarcely less beautiful, equally lovely, and equally innocent Brenda, was a complex- ion as differing from her sister, as they differ- edin character, taste, and expression. Her profuse locks were of that paly brown which receives from the passing sunbeam a tinge of gold, but darkens again when the ray has passed from it. Her eye, her mouth, the beautiful row of teeth, which in her inno- cent vivacity were frequently disclosed; the fresh, yet not too bright glow of a healthy complexion, tinging a skin like the drifted snow, spoke her genuine Scandinavian de- scent. A fairy form, less tall than that of Minna, but still more finely moulded into symmetry—a careless, and almost childish lightness of step—an eye that seemed to look on every object with pleasure, from a natural and serene cheerfulness of disposition, attract

There is a section of country in the State of Vera Cruz, 120 miles from the city of that name, called ‘‘Heaven,” on account of its climate. Its air, water and general environment are conducive of long health. A man who recently died there at the age of 154 was carried to the grave by his three sons, aged respectively 140, 114 and 110 years. To marry at 12 and 14 years of age is a common thing.

The Sydney correspondent of the North Sydney Herald writes: ‘* Professor Seal- nut, of Vanderbilt University, was in town last week. He paid a visit to the Louis- burg ruins, in which he was much interest- ed. As learned professor's chosen specialty is mmeralogy, with its various ramifications, his predictions of Cape Breton’s future greatness may be worthy of credence. He says that the island is in- evitably destined to become one of the greatest smelting centres im the world.”
