THE PIRATE.

By Sir Walter S2ott.

CHAPTER XXXIV. (Continned )

““Why, please your majesty’s worship,” said Derrick, making several sea-bows, and describing as nearly as he could the exterior of the worthy Magistrate himself, ‘he was an elderly gentleman,—Dutch-built, round in the stern, with a white wig and a red nose— very like your majesty, 1 think”; then, turn- ing to a comrade, he added, “ Jack, don’t you think the fellow that wanted to kiss the pretty girl with the lantern t’other nigut was very like his worship ?”

** By G—, Tom Derrick,” answered the party appealed to, ‘‘I believe itis the very man !”

‘This is insolence which we can make you repent of, gentlemen !” said the Magistrate, justly irritated at their effrontery ; “‘ you have behaved in this town as if you were in aa Indian village in Madigasear. You, your- se'f, Captain, if captain you be, were at the head of anvther riot no longer than yesterday. We will give you no provisions till we know better whom we are supplying. And do not think to bully us; when {shake this hand- kerchief ou! .t the window, which is at my elbow, your ship goes tothe bottom. Re- member she lies under the guns of our bat- tery.”

‘** And how many of these guns are honey- combed, Mr. Mayor!” said Cleveland. He put the question by chance; but instantly perceived, from a sort of confusion which the Provost in vain endeavored to hide, that the artillery of Kirkwall was rot in the best order. ‘*Come, come, Mr. Mayor,” he said, ‘*bullying will gu down with us as little as with you. Your guns yonder will do more harm to the poor old sailors who are to work them than to our sloop; and if we bring a broadside to bear on the town, why, yuur wives’ crockery will be in some dlanger. And then to talk tousvf seamen beinga little frolicsome asbore, why, whenare they other- wise? You have the Greenland whalers playing the devil among you every now and then; and the very Dutchisen cut capers in the streets of Kirkwall, like porpoises before a gale of wind. lam told you area man of sense, and I am sure you and I could settle this matter in the course of a five minutes’ laver.”

‘* Well, sir,” said the Provost, ‘‘I will hear what you have to say, if you will walk this way.

Cleveland accordingly followed him into a small interior apartment, and, when there, addressed the Provost thus: ‘1 will lay aside my pistols, sir, if you are afraid oi them.” '

‘* D—n your pistols!” answered the Pro- vost, “‘I have served the King, and fear the smell of powder as little as you do !”

**So much the better,” said Cleveland, ‘for you will hear me the more coolly.— Now, sir, let us be what perhaps yor suspect as, or let us be any thing else, what, in the name of Heaven, can you get by keeping us here, but blows and bloodshed ? for which be- lieve me, we are much better provided than you can pertend to be. The point is a plain one -you are desirous to be rid of us—we ar desirous to be gone. Let us have the means of departure and we leave youlinstantly.”

" tok ye, Captain,” said the Provost— “‘] thirst for no man’s blood. You ave a pretty fellow, as there were many among the bucamiero in my time—but there’ is no harm in wishing you a better trade. You should have the stores and welcome, for your money so you would make these seas clear ol you. But then, here lies the rub. The Halcyon frigate is expected here in these parts immediately ; when she hears of you she will be at you, for there is nothing the white lapelle loves better than a rover—you are seldom withont a cargo of dollais. Well, he comes down, gets you under his stern ee ** Blows us into the air, if you please,” said Cleveland.

, Nay, that must be as you please, Cap- tain,” said the Provost; ‘‘ but then, what 1s to become of the good town of Kirkwall, that has been packing and peeling with the King’s enemies? The burgh will be laid under a round tine, and it may be that the Provost may not come off so easly.”

** Well then,” said Clevelaud, ‘‘I see where the pinch lies. Now, suppose that I run round this island of yours, and get into the roadstead at Stromuess? We could get what we want put an beard there without Kirkwall or the Provost seeming to have avy hand in it, or, ifit should be ever questioned your want of force, and our superior strength, will make a sufficient apology.”

** That may be,” said the Provost ; ‘ but if I suffer you to leave your present station, and elsewhere, I must have some security that you will not do harm to the country.”

** And we,” said Cleveland, ‘* must have some security on our side, that you will no’ detain us, by dribbling out our time till the Halcyon is on the coast. Now, I wn myseif

rfectly willing to continue on shore as a estagn on the one side, provided you will give me your word not to betray me, and send some magistrate, or person of consequence, aboard the sleop, where his safety wilt be a guarantee for mine,”

The Provost shovk his head, and intimated it would be difficult to tind a person wi.ling to place himself as hostage in such a perilous condition; but said he would propuse the arrangenent to such of tne council as were fit to ve trusted with a mater of such weight.

West Highland Cattle.—Replacing Buffale.

—_ eo

The American Agriculturist for March gays: “The virtual extermination of the buffalo has revived the interest .. West Highland cattle, as their hides are ti: best and cheap- est substitute for buffal: robes, A few of them have recently becs: imported, one of which attracted much atte vion in the Chicago Fat Stock Show. An enterprising breeder in Manitoba has crossed them with the American bison, or buffalo, and the cross-bred progeny rove as hardy as their wild parents. The West Highland, or Kyloe, cattle area very anclent if not aboriginal race, found in the Hebrides apd the adjoining northwestern

coast of Scotland. In these bleak regions the cattle have for centumies found hiidante

upon the scanty herbege, with no shelter in winter except for the milk cows, which were allowed to share the humble cottages of the crofters, Yet such is their native hardiness that a large proportion of them survive the wildest storms, and when driven southward to the richer pastures of England, they repid- ly take on flesh, and produce beef uf such extra quality that it commands the highest price in the London market. Of their hardi- ness and ability to stand even the blizzards o* the Northwest there is ue room for doubt. If their hides find market as robes this will go far to make them profitable, but for this pur- pose they would have to be slaughtered in winter, There is no doubt that some of the enterprising cattlemen of the plains will give the West Highlanders an intelligent trial.”

LETTERS TO THE EDIYOR. The Christian sabbath Challenged.

Sir,-—In your last evening's issue a poor “7th Day Baptist” insults * nearly all Christendom,” maintaining there is no Scripture warrant for the observance of the Christian Sabbath; and in ignorant simpli- city thinks the original Hebrew of the Fourth Commandment bears him out. The Hebrew is Zaker eth yom hasabbath Vkadso --Remember, by way of commemoration and celebration, the day of sacred vest, to keep it holy or hallowed. The particular day of the week is not specified; it is ** Re- member the Sablath day, not the seventh day. What this commandment expressly requires is tu observe a day of sacred rest after every six days of labor, or a seventh of time. The seventh day indeed is to be kept holy, but not a word ‘iis here said as to the point from which the reckoning is to begin—every seventh day in rotation after six of labor. No man ever saw God the Father, John 6:14. Christ was the Creator of the world, (Heb. 1: 2), and it was he that rest- ed after creating, Gen. 2:3. He finished the far greater work of Redemption, John 19: 30. Christ is Lord or Dictator in re- gard to the Sabbath, Mark 2:28. Ee was Lawgiver on Sinai, and gave the Ten Com- mandiments, including the Fourth requiring the observing of a seventh part of time as sacred rest, commemor- ation and celebration. Christ set the ex- ample of celebrating the Sabbatism on the seventh day to commemorate his finished work of Creation, and his people followed him, Gen, 2:3. He also set the example of celebrating the sacred Sabbatisin on the first day, to commemorate his finished work of redemption, and his people fuliowed his example as to when this Sabbatism should be kept, Heb. 3:9,10; Luke 24:36-59 ; Jobn 20:19-23; Acts 20:6-12; 21:4,5 ; 10:27; 1 Cor. 11:17,18; 14:23-26; Heb. 10:25 ; and Paul commanded the extensive church- es of Troas, Corinth and Galatia, on the first day of each weck when met for Chris- tian worship, to take collections for the poor saints, 1 Cor. 10:1,2. John kept holy day on the first of the week, was in the Spirit, and called it ** the Lord's Day,” or Christian Sabbath, proving it was of the Lord’s appuintment to commemorate his tinishing his great work of Redemption. It was prophesied that this should be so. “Jesus of Nazareth whom ye ciucified, God raised trom the dead. This is the stone which is set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner,” Acts 4:10,11. In the Old Testament Messianic prophecy of Ps. 118:20-24 mad, ** The stone (Carist] which the builders re- fused is become the headstune of the corner. ‘This is the Lord’s doing ; it is marvellous in our eyes. ‘This [the exalta- tion of Christ fromthe dead on the first day of the week] is the day which the Lord hath made [or appointed to celebrate and commemorate the occasion as a Sabbatism); we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Again, wee, Ezek 43:27, referring to Gospel times when every Christian is a *‘ king and priest unto God, offering sacrifices of a broken and contrite heart” ana ‘of praise,” it says :—** And when these days are expired {the Old Testament dispensation] it shall be that upon ihe eighth day (arstaiter seventh —fir-t of the week jand so forward,the priest shall make your burnt offerings upon the altar and your peace offerings ; and I will accept you saith the Lord.” Again see Isaiah's Jast words of prophecy as to the then future Christian dispensation: *‘And it shall come to pass that from one Sabbath (Sabbatism:) to another shail all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord,” Isa. 66:23. Surely this is ‘* nearly ali Christenc:n ” referred to by our opponent. The Lord told his apostles in the Com- mission te *‘teach”’ the Caurch ** what- soever he had commanded them” (Math. 28:20) and they did so, forbade the keeping of the seventh-day Jewish Sabbath, and taught by example. and commanded the observance of tiie first day of the week, **The Lord’s day,” Rev. 1:10, because Paul says, Col. 2:16, 17—** Let no man judge you in meat or in drink, or inrespect of the Sabbath days (Jewish) which are a shaduw of things to come, but the body is of Christ.” Paul, who always observed the Lord’s day, says, ** Be ye followers of mo as | am of Christ,” Cor. 11:1., and com- manded the Churches of Troas, Galatia, and Corinth that the first day of the week should be observed as the Christian Sab- bath, Cor. 16:12; Acts 20:7. My opponent hints at the ninth commandment, while he, as above shown, bears [alse witness against ‘* nearly all Christendom.” If writing in the newspaper is useless to correct error and advance truth, why is he writing! Surely J may tinish up Spiritual- ism. I am yours, &c.,
