‘that they may have a better owner soon, |whom you will! like to work for. IfI die, 'my cousin Tradgett will have the estate and take my name. He is agood fellow.’
Adam could not help being moved; it was impossible for him not to feel that this was the voice of the honest, warm-hearted Arthur whom he had loved and been proud of in his old days; but nesrer memories would not be thrust away. He was silent : yet Arthur saw an answer in his face that induced him to go on with increasing earnestness.
‘And then if you would talk to the Poysers—if you would talk the matter over with Mr. Irwine—he means to see you to-morrow—and then if you would join your arguments to his to prevail on chem not to go—I know cf course that they would not accept any favor from me—I mean nothing of the kind; bnt I’m sure they would suffer less in the end. Irwine thinks so too; and Mr.. Irwine is to have the chief authority on the estate—he has con- sented to undertake that. They will really be under no man but one whom they re- spect and like. It would be the same with you, Adam: and it could be nothing but a desire to give me worse pain that could in- cline you to go.’
Arthur was silent again for a little while, and then said, with some agitation in his voice.
‘I wouldn’t act so toward you, I know. If you were in my place and I in yours, I should try to help you to do the best.’ Adam made a hasty movement on his chair, and looked on the ground. Arthur went on,
‘Perhaps you've wever done anything you've had bitterly to repent of in your life, Adam; if you had you would be more generous. You would know then that it’s worse for me than for you.’
‘Arthur rose from his seat with the last words, and went to one of the windows, looking out and turning his back on Adam, as he continued passionately,
‘Haven’t I loved her, too? Didn’t I see her yesterday? Shan’t I carry the thought of her about with me as much as you will? And don’t you think you would suffer more, if you’d been in fault ?
There was silence for several minutes, for the struggle in Adam’s mind was not easily decided. Facile natures, whose emotions have little permanence, can hardly understand how much inward re- sistance he overcame before he rose from his seat and turned toward Arthur. Arthur heard the movement, and turning round, met the sad and softened look with which Adam said,
‘It’s true what you say, sir; I’m hard— it’s in my nature. I was too hard with my

Adam spoke these words with the firm distinctness of a man who is resolved to leave nothing unsaid that he is bound to say; but he went on with more hesitation.

DISAFFECTED INDIANS,
Major Walsh has just returned from a visit to the disaffected Indians in Qu’- Appelle district saye a Winnipeg despatch of the 6th inst. He says the Indians he visited are very much excited. Saturday’s fight with Poundmaker the Major thinks, makes a general Indian war all too pro- bable. Crowfoot, the great chief of the Blackfoots, is a natural brother of Pound- maker, and Crowfoot is at present none too well disposed towards the Goverfment, and sympathy with his defeated kinsman may induce him to get his Blackfoot braves on the war trail. Major Walsh fears that the baffled Crees will not massacre their captives. He does not put the fighting strength of the Indians of the Saskatche- wan at more than 600,
A GENERAL RISING FEARED,
The Rocky Mountain Rangers of Mac- Leod, under command of Major Stewart, arrived at Medicine Hat on the 6th, and camped just outside of the town. They are a fine looking body of men, well mounted and weli armed and likely to be of great service if occasion demands. A well authen- ticated report has just reached Medicine Hat that the half-breeds had risen at Red Deer Forks, committing depredations. The settlers have fled. The Indians hereabouts still remain quiet, notwithstanding that half-breeds spies are amongst them trying to stir them to rebellion, If the report is true that the rebels are leaving north and making across the country for the southern boundery via this point, it will be hard to predict what effect this movement may have on the Indians. Those who seem to know best think it will be only a matter of oppor- tunity before ali the Indians break out.
THE INDIAN STRENGTH.
Poundmaker’s reserve is about 35 miles from Battleford, on the south side of Battle Biver and nearly due west. He has about 300 fighting men alone, not to mention the forces of Red Pheasant, Strike-Him-on-the- Back, Moequito, Lucky Man, and Little Pine in the same locality. Their combined strength would easily reach 600 or 700 men. They sre armed with every conceivable style of weapons, from the war clab and bowie knife to the rifle. The probability is that they occupied every ’vantage point in the bluffs, and fought in real Indian style. Nearly all the looted stock and plunder from Battleford was stored on Pound- maker’s reserve.
A ST, JOHN MAN HEARD FROM.
The following letter from Inspector Howe, of the mounted police, to his father, J. Howe, of St. Joha, N. B., has been received :—
Pryce Aceurt, April 20, 1885.
Dear Father,—1 am writing this, as in the event of letters getting through you would learn that Lam still above ground,
I have been on the broad of my back since the 27th of March. I was wounded at the batile of Duck Lake. I was the only Northwest mounied police officer with Major Crozier’s command. We had one troop of mounted police and some settlers, about eighty all told. The rebels number- ed about four hundred. We had twelve killed and eight wounded. I do not know the loss of the rebels. Our men fought well. I was shot through the right leg, but hope to be able to get out in about three weeks. I will write again as soon as I can learn if letters get through all right.
