herself with s sigh: ‘Oh how unfit a girl is to do anything great! We always fail il just. when health and strength are most needed,’

Nevertheless, during this period of ill- vess and inaction, circumstances occurred

that gave her joy.

Old Wardlaw had long been exerting himself to obtain what he called justice for his friend Rolleston, and had received some very encouraging promises; for the Gen- eral’s services were indisputable; and while he was stirring the matter, Helen was un- consciously co-operating by her beanty, and the noise her adventure made in society. At last a gentleman whose wife was about tie queen promised o'd Ward- law one day, that, if a fair opportunity should otfer, that lady should tell Helen’s adventure, and how the gallant old General, when everyone else despaired@had gone out to the Pacific, and found his daughter, and brought her home. <This lady was a courtier of ten years’ standing, and waited her opportunity; but when it came she took it, and she soon found that no great tact or skill was necessary on such an oc- casion as this. She was listened to with ready sympathy, and the very next day some inquiries were made, the result of which was that the Horse Guards offered Lieut.-General Rolleston the com- mand of a crack regiment and a full generalship. At the same time, it was intimated to him from another official quar- ter, that a baronetcy was at his service, if he felt disposed to avcept it. The tears came into the stout old warrior’s eyes at this sudden sunshine of royal favor, and Helen kissed old Wardlaw of her own accord ; and the star of the Wardlaws rose into the ascendant, and for atime Robert Penfold seemed to be quite forgotten.

The very day General Rolleston became Sir Edward, a man and a woman called at the Charmg Cross Hotel, and asked for Miss Helen Rolleston.

The answer was, she had left the hotel about ten days.

‘Where is she gone, if you please?’

‘We don’t know.’

‘Why, hasn’t she left her address?’

‘No. Th .e footman came for letters sev- eral times.’

. No information was to be got here, and Mr. Penfold and Nancy Rouse went home greatly disappointed, and puzzled what to do.

At first sight it might appear easy for Mr. Penfo'd to learn the new address of Miss Rollestom.” He had only to ask Arthur Wardlaw. But, to tell the truth, during the last fortnight Nancy Rouse had impress- ed “her views steadily and persistently on his mind, and he had also made a dis- covery that co-operated with her influence and arguments to undermine his confidence in his employer, What that discovery was we must leave him to relate.

Looking, then, at matters with a less unsuspieious eye than heretofore, he could not help observing that Arthur Wardlaw never put into the office letter-box a single letter for his sweetheart. He must write to her, through Michael; but I am not to know her address, Suppose, after all, he did intercept the letter,

And now, like other simple, credulous men whose confidence has been shaken, he was literally brimful of suspicions, some of them reasonable, some of them rather absurd.

He had too little art to conceal his change of mind; and so, very soon after his vain attempt to see Helen Rolleston at the inn, he was bundled off to Scotland on business of the office.

Nancy missed him sorely. She felt quite alone in the world. She managed to get through the day—work helped her; but at night she sat disconsolate and bewildered, and she was beginning to doubt her own theory. For certainly, if all that money had been Joe Wylie’s, he would hardly have left the country without it.

Now the second evening after Michael’s departure, she was seated in his room, brooding, when suddenly she heard a peculiar knocking next door.

She listened a little while, and then stole softly down stairs to her own little room, Her suspicions were correct. It was the same sort of knocking that had preceded the phenomenon of the hand and bank- notes. She peeped into the kitchen and whispered, ‘Jenny—Polly—come here.’

A stout washerwoman and the mite of a servant came, wondering.

‘Now you stand there,’ said Nancy, ‘and doas I bid you. Hold your topgues, now. I know all about it.’

The myrmidons stood silent, but with panting bosoms; for the mysterious knock- ing now concluded, and a brick in the chim- ney began to move.

lt came ont, and immediately a hand with a ring on it came through the aperture, and felt about.

The mite stood firm, but the big washer- woman gave signs of agitation that promised to end in a scream.

Nancy put her hand roughly before the woman’s mouth. ‘Hold your tongue, ye great soft ’ And without finishing her sentence, she darted to the chimney and seized the hand with both her own and pulled it, with such violence that the wiist followed it through the masonry, and a roar was heard.

‘Hold on to my waist, Polly,’ she eried. ‘Jenny, take the poker and that string, and ‘tie his hand to it while we hold on. Quick!

The women coutemplated their feat with flushed cheeks and sparkling eyes.

When they hac feasted a reasonab'e time on the imprisoned hand, and tao of them, true to their sex, had serutinized a green stone upon one of the fingers, to see whether it was real or false, Nanev took them by the shonlcers, and bundled them good-humoredly out of the room.

She then lowered the gas and came out, and locked the room up, and put the key in her pocket.

‘I'll have my supper with you,’ said she, ‘Come, Jenny, I'm cook; and you make the kitchen as a body could eat off it, for I expect visitors.’

‘La, ma’am,’ said the mite; ‘he can’t get out of the chimbly to visit hus through the street door.’

‘No, girl,’ said Nancy. ‘But hecansend

a hambassador; so show her keyes and plague her art, as the play says, for of all the dirty kitchens give me hers. I never was there but once, and my slipper come off for the muck, a sticking to a body like bird lime.’ There was a knock at Nancy’s street door; the little servant, full of curiority, was for running to it on the instant. But Nancy checked her.

‘Take your time,’ said she, lodging-house keeper.’

LETTERS TO TRE EDITOR,

North River Bridge.

Dear Sir,—Your eorrespondent—Dr. J. T. Jenkins—has called attention to a mat- ter of much importance, and, if his valu- able suggestions are acted upon, the pro- ductive capacity of the many farms lying npon the North River~—above the bridge— will be materially increased, by having the bridge so reconstructed as to prevent the lands adjacent to the river from being inundated by the tidal waters of the har- bor. It is easy to perceive that many acres of valuable land would be reclaimed; and, as the additional expense’ of having the new structure built as a dyke, with suitable tide yates, cannot be very large; and, as it did not appear that any injury would be done, it is to be hoped that the Govern- ment will take this.matter into sericus con- sideration, and so modify their plans as to have the new bridge serve the double pur- pose of*a highway, and «2 dyke as well— sufficiently staunch and compact as to pre- vent the injury of the salt water. Hoping that this mater may receive the attention it deserves,

I remain, yours truly,

Haprrant.

Winter Communication.

Sirn,—The speeches delivered in the Senate upon this important subject are very good. Most of the information given, except that relating to a new steamer, those who study the matter, are already acquainted with, We want something more practical; the present route of the ‘‘Northern Light” has been tried, long enough, we must say it isa failure. And Why? Because of the extra and unneces- sary distance she has to travel, and that through the heaviest ice fields. We ask why could not the boat cross in nearly a

direct line with Pictou You may urge there is no _ landing place, bat there might be if _indivi- duals were not so selfish at Charlotte-

town, Summerside, Georgetown, and other places. For instance on the 27th of Feb., 1884, a sailing vessel could have crosssed to Picton Island, and several other times it could have been done this winter if there had been a wharf at White Sands, Murray Harbor South, or Little Sands. The expense you may say would be too great for the Government, but what are the losses to our tradesmen and to the public in general? When necessary articles become scarce, immediately a high price is imposed upon witat is left, and the inconveniences to wait for a newspaper publi-hed in the cities of St. John, or Halifax, ten days after date, are great. It is time the inhabitants of P.E. Island roused themselves and demand what they have a right to, and that is winter com- munication with the Mainland daily when possible. Why could not the inhabitants of Murray Harbor have a branch railway like other parts of the Island? It is not very pleeasant in the depth of winter to have to drive twenty miles to a railway station before daylight. Surely our preeent representatives in the Dominion Parlia- ment might at once see to this much- needed accommcdation, which is already paid for, and the people’s just rights. Yours, etc.,
