died ? an’ why didna ye come to livei’ this country, bein’ as Mrs. Poyser’s your aunt, too,’

Dinah, seeing that Listeth’s attention was attracted, told her the story of her early life—how she had been brought up to work hard, and what sert of a place Snow- field was, and how many people had a hard

likely to interest Lisbeth.

The old woman listened and forgot to be fretful, unconsciously subject to the sooth- ing influence of Dinah’s face and voice, After a while she was persuaded to let the kitchen be made neat and tidy; for Dinah was bent on this, believing that the sense of order and quietude around her would help in disposing Lisbeth to join the prayer she longed to pour forth at her side. Seth, meanwhile, went out to chop wood; for he surmised that Dinah would like to be left alone with his mother.

Lisbeth sat watching her as she moved about in her still, quick way, and said, at last, ‘Ye’ve got a notion o’ cleanin’ up. I wouldna mind hain’ ye for adaughter, for ye wouldna spend the lad’s wages i’ fine clothes an’ waste. Ye’re not like the lasses o this country-side. I reckon folks is different at Snowfield from what they are here. | *They have a different sort of life, many of ’em,’ said Dinah; ‘they work at different things— some in the mill, and many in the mines, in the village round about. But the heart of man is the same everywhere, and there are the children of this world,and the children of light there as well as any- where. But we've many more Methodists there than in this country.’

‘Weil, I didna know as the Methody women war like ye, for there’s Will Mark- ery’s wife, as they say's a big Methody, isna pleasant to look at atall. I'd as lief as a tooad. An’ I['m thinkin’ I wonldna mind if ye’d stay ,and sleep here, for I shorld like to see yei’ the housg, i’ th’ mornin’.’ But may happen they'll be lookin’ for ye at Mester Poyser’s.’

‘No,’ said Dinah; ‘they don’t expect me, and I should like to stay, if you’d let me.’

‘ Well, there’s room; I’n got my bed laid i’ th’ little room o’er the back kitchen, an’ ye can lie beside me. I'd be glad to ha’ ye wi’ me to speak to i’ th’ night, for ye’ve got a nice way o’ talkin’, It puts me i mind o’ the swallows as was under the thack last ‘ear, when they fust begun to sing low an’ soft-like i’ th’ mornin’. Eh, but my old man war fond o’ them birds! an’ so war Adam, but they’n ne’er comed again this ‘ear. Happen they're dead too.’

‘There,’ said Dinah, ‘now the kitchen looks tidy, and now, dear mother—for I’m your daughter to night, you know—I[ shoul like you to wash your face and have a clean cap op. Do you remember what David did when God took away his child from him? While the child was yet alive he fasted and prayed to God to spare it, and he would neither eat nor drink, but lay on the ground ali night, beseeching God for the child. But when he knew it was dead, he rose up from the ground and washed and anointed himself, and changed his clothes, and are and drank; and when chey asked him how it was that he seemed to have left off grieving now the child was dead, he said, ‘ While the child was yet alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, Who can tell whether Gud will be gracious to me, that the child may live? But now he is dead why should I fast ? can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me.’’

‘Eh, that’s a true word,’ said Lisbeth. ‘Yes, my old man wonna come back to me, but I shall Bo to* him—the sponer the better. Well, ye may do as ye like wi’ me; there’s a clean cap i’ that drawer, an’ I'll go i’ the back kitchen and wash my face, An’, Seth, thee may’st reach down Adam’ | new Bible wi’ th’ picters in, and she shall

| read us a chapter, jE shail goto him, but | back to me.’

Dinah and were both imwardly olfering thanks tor ile greater quietness of sprit that had come over Lisheth. This was what Dinah had been trying to bring about, throvgh all her still sympathy and ead absence from exhortation. From her girl- Hhriv’s ODL.) }ood upward she had had experience among the sick and the mourning, among minds hardened and shriveled through poverty and ignorance, and had gained the subtlest percep'ion «f the mode in which they could best be touched, and softened into willing- | ness to receive words of spiritual consola- | tion or warning. As Dinah expressed it, | ‘She was never left to herself, but it was, always given her when to keep silence and when to speak.’ And do we not all agree to cali rapid thought and noble impulse by the name of inspiration? After our subtlest analysis of the mental process, we may still say, as Dinah did, that our high- est thoughts and our best deeds are all given to us,

And so there was earnest prayer—there

was faith, love and hope pouring itself forth that evening in the little kitchen. And poor, aged, freiful Lisbeth, without grasping an distinct idea, without going through any course of religious emotions, felt a vague sense of goodness and love, and of something right, lying uaderneath and beyond all this sorrowing life. She couldn’t understand the sorrow; but, for these moments, under the subduing in- fluence of Dinah’s spirit, she felt that she must be patient and still,

The Fishery Question.

WHAT THE AMERICANS THINK ABOUT IT,

(From the Boston Globe.)

Gloucester fishermen propose to make a strong fight against the continuance of free trade in fish between Canada and the United States. They will protest strongly against the renewal of the clauses in the treaty of Washington pertaining to the tisheries.

Iu that treaty, as far as fishing went, the stipulations of the treaty of 1854. termi- nated in 1866, were revived, allowing American fishermen to fish within three miles of the Canadian coast, and allowing them to land for certain purposes. Besides this it was provided that fish and fish oil, with some slight exceptions, should pass between Canada and the United States free of duty. These provisions went into operation July 1, 1873, to remain in force for ten years, and further until two years

life there—all the details that she thought /after either country should have given

notice to terminate them. Last year the notice was givev, and next year, unless these provisions are renewed or similar pro- visions are introduced into a general Reci- procity Treaty with the Dominion, Cana- dian fishermen will have to pay duties on their fish, and American fishermen cannot fish within three miles of Canadian shores.

As far as free trade in fish goes Canada will be loath to part with an international arrangement which has served her interests so well, The Canadians are fully aware that its benefits are far greater to the British fishermen than to our own, The Dominion fishermen must seek our markets for a large preportion of theircatch, On No. 1 and No. 2 mackerel Canada has no other market in the world than the United States. Her herrings are principally marketed here, while her method of curing cod shuts them out from many of the best foreign markets. Her fishermen can land fish on Boston wharves and sell them cheaper than the Gloucester men can, for the reason that three boats can be built in Nova Scotia cheaper than we can build one. Wages, iron, lumber, cordage, al- most everything, is so much cheaper there than here that our fisherman say it is im- possible to compete with them even in our own market. ‘Why not build and man our boats in Canada!’ asks some one. Then what would become of our fleet of 2,000 vessels, worth from $5,000 to $13,060 each! returns the Gloucester merchant; and, ne continues, ‘If the treaty is renewed, these Canadians will next build steamers and go into the New York and _ Philadelphia markets, which will cripple us still more. The present dull state of the fish market is wholly due to this free trade in fish, and we demand protection.’

Hon. R. 8. Spofford epitomized the matter very well when he wrote, ‘The statesmanship of E. Rockwood Hoar, and of the high joint commission to which he belonged, by whom the treaty of Washing- ton was formed, has been as disastrous to our fishermen as was the revolutionary war, by which they were well-nigh des- troyed, and the pelicy recommended by Jefferson at that time in his famous report is applicable now. You owe it toa political partly that vaunts itself as the especia) guardian of the high protective principle, that Canadian fish are entered duty free in all the markets of the United Stat s.’

If free trade in fish is stopped at the same time our fishermen lose the right to ‘fish within three miles of Canadian shores, For this latter privilege the Halifax com- mission in 1878 awarded $5,500,000 to Eng- land under the terms of the treaty of Washington. The Gloucester people say they will not care anything for this loss. They assert that the in-shore fisheries under British jurisdiction are not worth over $200,000 perannum to us under any circum- stances. We need the duties more than we do the fish. Statistics show that for the seventeen years between 1856 and 1872, inclusive, the impourtations of fish from the Province, aggregated the enormous total of $22,711,971. As Canadians could pay us import duty, and still send vast quantities of tish here, it will be seen what an immense emount of morey free trade in fish costs us. Yet we paid them $5 500,000 for the piivilege of losing so much tariff revenue

who followed the uncertain, hazardous (alike to life and property) and hardy life of the fisherman, As lung ago es 1835 under this sysetem of bounties we had 141,78] tonnage engaged in the cod and mackerel fisheries, while of late years, without the stimulus of a bounty, and sub- jected to the unjust competitions of Cana- dian fishermen, and cons: quent unremuner- ative character of the industry, the total of tonnage thus employed has declined to less than 100,000 tons. Other nations, France in particular, have esteemed the fisheries as the school of the samen end brave men who should man their vessels of war. The fishermen aek if there is any sound reason why America should reach a different conclusion.
