The ‘*Shannon” was soon ready for sea. But the gentleman who was to take Gen-

eral Rolleston's post met with. something

better, and declined it.

General Rolleston, though cheffing with impatience, had to give up going home in the *‘Shannon.” But an iniuential friend, Mr. Adolphus Savage, was informed of his difficulty, and obtained a year’s leave of absence for him, and permission ta put young Savage in as his locum tenens, which, by-the-bye, 18 how politic men in general serve their friends.

The “Shannon” sailed, but not until an incident had occurred that must not be entirely passed over. Old Mr. White called on General Rolleston with a long face and told him that James Seaton had dis- appeared,

‘Stolen aaything?

‘Nota shilling. Indeed the last thing the poor fellow did was to give us a proof of his honesty. It seems a passenger had paid him twenty seven pounds fora berth in the ‘‘Proserpine” just before she sailed. Well, sir, he might have put this in his pocket, and nobody been the wiser; but no, he entered the transaction, and the number of the notes, and left the notes themselves jn an envelope addressed to me, What I am most afraid of is that some harm has come to him, poor lad.’

‘What day did he disappear?

‘The 11th uf November.’

‘The day my daughter sailed for Eng- land,’ said General Rollesten, thoughtfully.

‘Was it sir? Yes, i remember. She went in the ‘‘Proserpine’’.’

’ General Rollest n knitted his brows in silence for ¢ome time; then he said :

‘Til set the detectives on his track.’

‘Not to punish him, Genoral, We don’t want him punished,’

‘To punish him, protect him, or avenge him, as the case may require.’ was the reply, uttered very gravely.

Mr. White took his leave. General Rolleston rang the hell, and diregted his servant to go for Hexham, the detective.

He rang the bell again, and sent fer Sarah Wilson. He put seme searching questions to this woman; and his interroga {ory had hardly concluded when Hexhom was annovaced. General Rollesten dis- wissed the girl, and looking now very grave indeed, asked the detective whether he

care about, you must not imagine that others are similarly circumstanced.

I am aware, sir, that the letter published in the Putriot of the 2d inst., over your signature is not exactly yours, In fact, I believe that very little of that produg- tion is yours, other than the signature, You must indeed have foreseen some little honor ia a reputation for news- paper writing when you consented to tack your name to such a tirade of coarse ribal- dry. This, however, is not the first time I lave seen your name in print, subscribed to the writings of others. But, if I mistake not, your last was intended to be a lecture on Morals, and it was only natural that you should engage the services of a moral man to give tone and vigor to your senti- ments. One might presume you had, your- self, Sir, sufticient experienoe in the frailties of human nature to pomt out the dangerous shoals on the sea of life, without drawing on the bitter experience of others. Indeed, from the tone of your letters, one might fancy that you dealt exclusively in virtue, and that trade has been rather brisk with

you as your stock- is somewhat low. Bat are you quite sure that you stand so immaculate’ before the

public, that you are justified in wielding the weapons of reproach against others with so large an assumption of virtue? Are there no littie irregularities in your private life that make it exceed- ingly awkward and inconvenient fur you to ‘‘ cast the first stone?’ I merely suggest these inquiries as aids to your memory, leaving it to some other pen more reckless than mine to go into particulars. You are entirely too sareastic Sir, in selecting a man beneath yourself to lecture me on the con- duct of life. Your new-found friend, who, [have reason to know, ig not the same gentleman who aided yon in your first attack upon me, may thank the age in which he lives, and the indulgence of the pe ple of Souris, that he has not tefore now been publicly whipped at the carts tail for his unmanly vices.

see if there is any significance in it! Thislick-spittle has blackguarded you before now in the public press; and if, as you say, you “‘icrecast the future by the experience of the past,” you may reasonably expect that he will do so again, You enjoy his friendship now, but 1 envy not your privilege. You may clasp the serpent to your breast; but, I warn you, it will yet ating the bosom that warmed it.

Your letter, to say the least, is somewhat formidable in italics; but, in the absence of foot-notes, | am again at a loss to catch your taeaning. I conclude, however, that you must have had some malicious design upen the printer. You appear to be a tr fle per} Jexed as to whether or not you acti acalgeate me « gevtleman.

finement and taste; they are not expeoted of you. The public, however, sill not ‘be slow, in deciding as to what you should be called.

You allude to the fact that I at one time secured what you are pleased to call a ‘‘lower class Teachers’ License,” and affect surprise that 1 never *‘succeeded in getting up any higher then the foot of the ladder.” I may tell you Sir, that I never attempted to ascend any higher in that direction. Perhaps I need hardly remind you that there are gentlemen of greater pretensions than I have, who have net come even with- in agun-shot of the lowest round of your so-called ladder; and yet, they have had the unblusing effrontery to feist them- selves upon a gullible public as men of sbility and learning. Indeed, it wonld seem that ‘‘cheek” and impertinence answer some nen a8 well as education.

I observe that you attempt to be exceed- iogly witty in your disingeaivus allusions to my mental qualities. I regret this very

much for your own sake. This is a subject, sir, which » should not provoke ungenerovs mirth in yon. There are Aeredittary taats. of char-

acter which mark some men as plainly as facial expression; 4nd if the deductions of physiologists be correctly drawn, some g nilemen who now affect to soecr at others may yet end their career in dancing for coppers on the public streets. You also insinuate that I have been in the habit of *‘ maligning people in the press of this colony,” and boldly state that [ wasacoutributor to Rochyurd’s Daily. The statement, Sir, is not troe. I have never in my life written one line for a bewspaper that would compromise the private character of any person; nor was I a contributor so the defunct sheet of which, by the way, you seem to havesuch on- vieasant memory. It is true I did on one occasion, in connection with another party, prepare a shért, humorous paragraph for that paper, which, however, I did not send for publication, IL had the imprudence at the time to show you this same paragraph, and you well know that it contained nothing derogatory tu any person. You aretherefcre, welcome to any advantage accruing to you from this, your unmanly breach of private friendship, Were 1 disposed to reciprocate with you in the betrayal of private confi- dence, I cou'd easily recall to your mind many ubpleasant recoliections; and if I c!.a°se t) keep 4 seal upon my lips, | thank God that I bave higher motives than any feer of giving offence to James R. McLean. Your bluetering charge.that 1 ‘have at- tack you without the slightest provoca- tion or the least reason,” is well worthy of you. I tell you, Sir, IL generally know what Il am driving at. The public wilt probably judge as to who the attacking party is without the aid of direction from either of us. Yours, ete.,
