THE PIRATE.

By Sir Walter Scott.

CHAPTER XXX, (Continued. )

‘‘Now, Heaven guide us,” said the Udaller, ‘‘ what is the matter with the man? Why, man, if you will put your plough into new land, you must look to have it hank ona stone now and then— you must set us an example of patience, seeing you come here for our improve- ment.”

** And the deil was in my feet when | did so,” said the Factor ; ‘‘I had better have set myself to improve the cairn on Cloclmaben.”

** But what is it, after all,” said the Udaller, ** that has befallen you ?—what is

‘it that you complain of ?”

“ Of every thing that has chanced to me since [ landed on this island, which | believe was accursed at the very creation,’ said the agriculturist.

*“By my faith, a goodly catalogue !”’ said Magnus ; ‘‘and there has been the day, that if I had heard you give out the half oi it, I should have turued improver myseli, and have tried to amend your manners with a cudgel.”

‘*Bear with me,” said the Factor, ‘* Maister Fowd, or Maister Udaller, o1 whatever else they may call you, and as you are strong be pitiful, and consider thi luckless lot of any inexperienced person who lights upon. this earthly paradise of

yours. He asks for drink, they bring him sour whey—no disparagement to your brandy, I'owd, whichis excellent. You

ask for meat, and they bring you sour sil- locks that Satan might choke upon. You call your laborers together, and bid them work; it proves Saint Magnus’ day, or St. Ronan’s day, or some infernal saint or other’s—or else, perhaps, they have come out of bed with the wreng foot foremost, or they have ssen anowl, or arabbit has crossed their path, or thep have dreamed of a rvasted horse—in short, nothing is to be done. Give them a ape. and they work as if it burned their fingers; but set them to dancing, and see when they will tire of funking and flinging !”

‘**And why should they, poor bodies,”’ said Claud Halcro, ‘tas long as there are good fiddlers to play to them?”

** Ay, ay,” said Triptolemus shaking his head, ‘* you are a proper person to uphold them in sucha humor. Well, to proceed : I till a piece of my best ground ; down comes a sturdy beggar that wants a kail- yard, or a plant-a-cruioe, as you call it, an he claps down an. enelosure in the middle of my bit shot-of corn, as lightly as if he wasbaith laird and tenant; and gainsay him wha likes, there he dibbles in his kail plants! I sit down to my sorrowful dinner, thinking to have peace and quietness there at least; when in comes one, two, three, four, or half-a-dozen of skelping long lads, from some foolery or anither, misca’ me for barring my ain door against them, and eat up the best half of what my sister’s pro- vidence—and she is sot over bountiful— has allotted for my dinner! Then enters a witch, with an ellwand in her hand, and she raises the wind or lays it, which ever she likes, majors up and down my house as if she was mistress of it, and I am bouden to thank Heaven if she carries not the broadside of it away with her!”

** Still,” said the Fowd, ‘‘ this is no ans- wer to my question—how the foul fiend I come to tind you at moorings here ?”

‘* Have patience, worthy sir,” replied the afflicted Factor, ‘‘ and listen to what I have to say, for I fancy it will be as well to tell you the whole matter. You must know, I once thought that I had gotten a smali god- send, that might have made all these matters easier.”

**How! a godsend] Do you mean a wreck?” exclaimed Magnus ; *‘ shame upon you, that should have set example to others |”

‘**It was no wreck,” said the Factor ; but if you must needs know, it chanced that a3 I raised an hearthstone iu one of the old chambers at Stourburg, (fur my sister is minded that there is little use in mair fire- places about a house than oe, and I want- ed the stane to knock bear upon,) when, what should I light en but a horn full of old coins, silver the maist feck of them, but wi’ a bit sprinkling of gold among them too. Weel, 1 thought this was a dainty windfa’, and so thought Baby, and we were the mair willing to put up with a place where there were siccan braw nest eggs—and we slade down the stane cannily over the horn, which seemed to me to be the very cornucopia, or horn of abundance, and for farther security, Baby wad visit the

that.”

‘*On my word, and a very pretty amuse- ment,” said Claud Halcro, ** to look over a horn of one’s own siller. 1 question if glorious John Dryden ever enjoyed such a past time in his life—I am very sure I never did.”

** Yes, but you forget, Jarto Claud,” said the Udaller, ‘‘ that the Factor was only counting over the money for my Lord the Chamberlain. As he is so keen for his Lordship’s rights in whales and wrecks, surely he would not forget him in treasure- trove.”

‘‘A-hem! a-hem! a-he—he—hem!”’ eja- culated Triptolemus, seized with an awk- ward fit of coughing,—‘‘no doubt my Lord’s right in the matter would have been considered, being in the hand of one, though I say it, as just as can be found in Angus-shire, let alone the Mearns. mark what happened of late! One day as I went up to see thatZall wassafe and snug, and just to count out the share that should have been his Lordship’s—for surely the laborer,as one may call the finder, is worthy of his hire—nay, some learned

men say, that when the finder in point of

trust and in point of power, representh the dominus, or lord superior, he taketh the whole ; but let that.oass, as a kittle question in apieibus juris, as we wont to say at Saint Audrews—Well, sir and ladies, when I went to the upper chamber, what should I see but an ugesome, ill-shaped, and most uncouth dwarf, that wanted but hoofs and horns to have made an vtier devil of him, counting over the very hornful of silver! I #m no timorous man, Master Fowd, but, judging that I should proceed with caution in such a matter—for I had reason to be- lieve there was devilry in it—I accosted him in Latin, (whilk it is maist becoming to speak to aught while taketh upon it asa goblin,) and conjured him in nomine, and so ‘orth, with such words as my poor learning could furnish of a suddenty, whilk, to say truth, were not so many, nor altogether so purely latineezed as might have been, had I not been few years at college, and many at the pleugh.

Arrested in Boy's Clothes. NELLIE CAIRNS, ALIAS TAYLOR, ESCAPES FROM JAIL AT DORCHESTE!

Nellie Cairns, alias Dayl rviliy. ta pihe months scutence in jatl at Dorehester; fitted Tuesday evening with a considerable

sum of money, a gold watch wad chain, ind clothing ; in fact everything of value which she could conveniently carry. Jailor Pait sent telegrams to I C. R. officer O’ Rourke and Marshal Thibidewn at Mone- tou, and on the arrival of the No.1 Express from Halifax yesterday afternoon, officer O'Rourke arrested Nellie just as she, was making her escape from the car in a suit of. boys clothes. She had. in her possession the gold watch be- longing to Mrs. Tait and $7.87, in- cluding $35 in bills and a $2.50 gold piece, and clothing belonging to jaiior Tait and his son, which she wore. Sho stated to officer O'Rourke that she had been work- ing through the house, and that Mrs. Tait had sent her to the attic for some starched clothes that had been placed there to dry. While up stairs she had gone to Mrs. Tait’s bedroom and secured the watch and money. After bringing the clothes down stairs she pretended to go tothedining-room for water with which to sprinkle them, and escaped through the kitchen door. She says she went behind a barn near the jail and changed her clothing, putting on a suit of men’s clothes and leawing her own behind the barn. She then started along the road as far as Memramcook, where she stop three or four hours in the tank house. She then left and went up to the village, where she stopped that nig! t. She then started to tramp along the railway rack as far as Painsac, where she bought a second class ticket to Moncton. She got on No. l express train bound forSt. John,

When arrested, Nellie wore a Tam O'Shanter cap, a dark overcoat and rubber boots. Her makeup and dress asa boy were good, except that the pants did not fit well, being too long and smal] around the waist. She said to officer O'Rourke that she will burn down the jail before she leaves. She was taken back to Dorchester last evening, andthe stolen articles deli- vered over to the sheriff for safe keeping till the court meets in March. The offence for which the girl was sentto jail was stealing money, watch and clothing from Mrs. Marks in Moncton. She was hired as a servant girl, and during Mrs. Marks’ ab- sence in St. John on a picnic excursion the girl decamped, taking all the valuables she could get her hancs on, and leaving the little children in her care to run about the yard. She belongs to P. E. Island, and was evidently born to steal.—Muncton Times.

Apvick to Morrers.— Mrs. Winslow's soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natual quict sleep by relieving the child from pain; and the little cherub awakes as “‘bright asa button.” It is very pleasant wo taste.
