Now is the time.

U. C. Egmont Bay, Dec. ne aia a

a bright tire was blazing in the chimney and a candle burning on a stand near the hearth, Cora went to a large mirror and arranged her hair. She thought she saw the gloomy shadow of Hannibal behind her, and turned round once or twice before she could re- move the impression. ‘ Poor fellow !’ said she, still gazing on her own bright figure. ‘I do pity him. If King loved anybody else, I ‘should feel so bad. I really believe I should poison my. self. Now ain't he handsome ? and doesn’t he look a rose among thorns? Oh, get along, Cora; how like a fool you do talk!’ Cora’s white teeth gleamed on the face of the mirror, then turning away she threw herself into a large easy-chair in front of the fire, and in spite of the excited state of her feelings and the extreme want of sentiment evinced by the act, she fell asleep in her downy nest. She had been up al- Most all the preceding night, on her feet all day, and had been dancing with such extraordinary enthusiasm that the soft cushion and gentle warmth of the room soothed her to instantaneous repose. How long she slept she knew not. She was awakened by a sense of heat and suffoca- tion, as if her lungs were turned to fire. Starting up she found herself encircled by a blaze of light that seemed to emanate from her own body. Her white dress was one sheet of flame, the chair she left was enveloped in the same destroying element. ‘Mercy! mercy!’ she shrieked, ‘Oh mistress, save me, save me! Rushing through the hall and down the stairs, the flames flashing more widly round her, she still screemed, ‘Mistress save me!’ Mrs. Bellamy, who was in the room below, heard the sudden terrible cry of human suffering, and flew to relieve it. When she beheld the blazing figure leaping towards the open door and recognizing the voice of Cora, shrill and piercing as it now was, re- gardless of self, she sprang after her, and seizing her with frenzied grasp, tried to crush the flames with her slender fingers, and smother them against her own body. While she was thus heroically endeavouring to save the beautiful mulattg at the risk of her own life, Hannibal, who had dragged the carpet from the hall, wrapped it closely round the form of her he so madly loved ; feeling even in that moment of horror a fierce tran-port that he had anticipated the bridegroom in this act of preservation. The flames, which were communicated to Mrs. Bellamy’s dress, which being of black satin was not of very inflammable materials, were smothered by the contact of the thick car- per. Resigning Cora to the powerful arms of Hannibal, who bore her into the house,

she followed her, unconscious,in her intense

yours you keep so carefully concealed ?’ ‘How willingly would I endure this, and far more, if by so doing | could purchase the life of Cora,’ said Mrs. Bellamy, while they unbound her smarting, raw, and dis» figured hands. But never in their native fairness, when uncovered aud sparkling with rings, had they been so worthy of ad. miration as at this moment, marred as they were in her generous effort to save the life of her slave. So Doctor Manning thought, as with gentle touch and well-tried skill he applied the healing remedies of his art to the sore and quivering flesh. lie hada soul keenly susceptible of the influence of moral beauty, and as his profession brought him within those sanctuaries of the heart to which very few are admitted he had an op- wortunity of studying its most hidden pages.

‘ Your scars will be more honorab‘e than those of the warrior’s, gained on the battle- field,’ said he to Mrs. Bellamy, when he had dressed the martyred member.

‘I do not deserve any praise, doctor. It was all instinctive.’

‘But, surely, the instinct of benevolence that induces one to peril her life regard- lessly for another, is more praiseworthy than the self-love that folds the mantle of security over its own breast, believing that self-preservation is the first great law of being.’

After administering an anodyne to both, the doctor took his leave, promising to call the next day, or rather the same, for the dawn was already standing at the gates of the orient. At the outer door he was stopped by the bridegroom, who could searcely articulate the question which trembled on his lips.

‘She won't die, doctor, will she? Cora won't die?’ repeated he, hanging on his words as if his own existence depended on the answer.

‘Lhope net, my poor fellow,’ said the doctor, in a kind and sympathising tone. ‘It is impossible for me to say now what will be the result, but we will certainly hope for the best. In the meantime, I will do all in my power to restore her.’

‘I know you will, doctor,’ said he, :till detaining him. ‘They say you kill or cure, just what you please. Promise to cure Cora, and I’jl follow you on my knees all my born days.’

‘You must pray to God for her life, and that He will bless the means used for her recovery. But you must not put me in the place of the Almighty,” said the doctor, gently drawing away from the despairing

‘Yes,’ mused the benevolent physician,

no strength to face it, which impelled Ral- ston to spread himself abroad, until it be- came an alternative between malversation and ruin, even as at last the situation presents itself in the light of a yet more desperate bifurcation—the grave or the criminal dock, We have fallen on an age in which the proposition that true wealth does not consist in the abundance of pos~ sessions, nor true distinction in external show, numbers itself among those common places which are flippantly repeated and readily assented to, but hardly ever realized, and still more rarely acted on. ‘Getting on,’ is exalted to a divinity so exacting, that neither nature nor art can aspire to canonization. Noris it merely that men are incapable of content withouta prospect of acquiring wealth, a prospect which all, who can do so honorably, should secure, though it need not be made indispensable to happiness ; they must in spite of Solo. man, the Insolvency Act, and their Medical adviser, see their way to rapid fortunes. The burgher of former days hastening slowly to be rich, and a Bayard in his jeal- ousy regarding the honor of his name, is as extinct as Dodo or the old mail coach. His successor lives in the era of steam engines and telegraphs, and aims at ac. complishing his ends at express speed, Life apart from wealth seems of no value. The mind’s joy in its own activity, the generous hoarding of knowledge, the noble thrift of doing good to others, the simple but unapproached pleasures within reach of a nature in harmony with the universe, these have no place in the ordinary ideal of a successful career, which has at least the virtue of being easy of comprehension, consisting as it does in the rapid accumula- tion of wealth with a view to ostentatious display. Without hopes of this, annihila- tion is not terrible but welcome, and the thought which grapples with the infinite, and expatiates through eternity, made, by base imprisonnient, a drooping thing, is a burden gladly shaken off. Yet it has en- abled hundreds to be gay when racked with pain, has proved a solace in exile and penury,and with the tender aid of ever varying nature, has re-discovered such riches and called forth such music as to impress fallen ambition with a glad sense of bow much had been lost and sacrificed for power. But when turned away from all things else, the eye is fixed on the acquisi- tiop of wealth as the one and only thing needful, with this lost or no hope of ac- quiring it, collapse in one form or another is inevitable.

There is another point of view. Insuch

a scheme of life there is a radical miecon-

' Not so many years ago it was considered

a feat in deep sea sounding to reach a mile

or a mile and a half, and even then, after allowance had been made for the action of currents upon the line, the actual depth

attained was a good deal a matter of cals

culation or guess. Breakages also were

continually occurring in the hauling up from the necessary slefiderness of the cord in comparison with the weight of the lead.

The modern method by which the lead detaches it self at the bottom meets that as wellas several other difficulties nearly as important, and the wonder is that it was not thought of sooner. Now there is scarcely any limit to the depth of sounding, except the depth of the sea, which the recent explorations of the Challenger go go far to show to be in accordance with the theory that its greatest depth is equiva- lent to the height of the highest elevations above its level. The deepest sea soundings yet effected were obtained by the Challens ger this year in the abysses off New Guinea, depths which have occa-ioned a sharp line of demarcation between the fauna of Asia and Australasia. The “lead” weighed 4 cwt., and struck bottom at the tremendous depth of 4,450 fathoms, or about 26,700 feet. The hollow rod, by which specimens of the bottom are brought up, was full of mud, and both the thermometers that had been sent down were smashed to atoms by the enormous pressure of the euperincum - bent water. A previous unsuccessful attempt to :each the bottom, but in which 4,545 fathoms were sounded, showed the temperature at that depth to be 35) deg. Fahr.

Tue Divorce or tor Granp Duke ALEXis. —We have been told from St. Petersburz that the Grand Duke Alixes, son of the Czar, is just divorced. Ilis wife was a Ger- man maid of honor, for whom the Empres: had a great affection. She was not pretty Lam told,but extraordinarily graceful, an‘ possessed of that fascination which is a better gift than beauty. So the Grand Duke fell over head and ears in love, and the lady confiding in her mistress’ affection undertook to break the news. It was done, and inafew hours after the lady found herself travelling at express speed towards the frontier, while the Prince re- ceived orders to join his ship. Thus they were parted forawhile, But it is hard to control a prince, harder to rule a sailor, and a sailor prince in love must be worse to hold than quicksilver, The Grand Duke ran away, of course, found the lady, and married her at a village church in Germany. Thence they went to America, where for two years they dwelt in perfect happiness. The Czar it is said, would not forgive, nor would the Prince humb'e himself. But the Empress interposed at length, both for her son and her ex-maid of honor, And 80, after a time, a reconciliation took place. This week the solemnities of the divorce are all completed ; t!e Grand Duke enters the army, and his widow receives a pension, Seeing she is but twenty-one she has time for more romantic adventures, but greater

she can scarcely hope for,
