islanded rock about thirty feet above the present level of the water, A fragment of ruined building was discernible on its

nirrow summit. As the two men looked together on the stone from which their race had taken its

name centuries ago, both fell under the influence of that mysterious sentiment, so different from the pride of station or the vanity of precedence, which binds us to the past, Neither of them spoke, but it is not an exaggeration to say that both f.lt their relationship then. Had not the time been when Stanburne of the Peel and Stanburne of Wenderholme were brothers? A fraternal feeling began to unite these two by subtile invisible threads.

‘What’s that fragment of building cn the rock ?’ asked the Colonel.

‘A remnant of a chapel. There must have beeu a bridge—very likely a wooden bridge—to the rock formerly, It is quite inaccessable now. I hope to restore it all some day; but I mean the chapel to be beautiful, and cannot quite afford it at present.

Colonel Stanburne, though really, as we have said, quite as timid as Philip, had a certain amount of swagger in his manner, which was a part of the genre which for some unaccountable reason, he thought it necessary to adopt. This made him some~ what alarming to the recluse, as he threw himself on a sofa in Philip's parlor aud declared that he was dying of inanition.

Philip Stanburne’s establishment was a very small one,and the men were always out in the woods, except when absolutely necessary at home. It happened there- fore, on the present occasion, that there was nobody ia the house except the house- keeper, Mrs. Suteliffe, and a youuy kitch- en girl, who led a life of absolute subjec- tion under her despotic authority. This Mrs.Sutcliffe was at the same time Philip's cook, and the reader is already aware that she cooked as little as possible. In fact she had not been endowed by nature with that capacity to take a pleasure in such l:.bours which is the mark of the artistic voeation. She hated cooking, and the less she practiced the worse she did it.

When Philip rang his bell it was Mrs. Sutcliffe who answered in person. She had a theory that the kitchen girl ought to be kept out of Philip's way—tor the kitchen girl was pretty ; but the precaution wasa very unnecessary one, for he was as yet remarkably indifferent to women, except he was afraid ef them.

‘Mrs. Suteliffe,’ said the master of the

house, ‘ we want some lunch.’

| pied bench was another heavy block of the

likely to end the lives of the inhabitants of the cheese. Then he tried to forget his miseries with a cigar, his secret thoughts still turning sadly to the cold roast duck in the dog-cart,

They went into the ill-kept garden, following grass-grown walks between un- cultivated beds. Strongly contrasting with all the rest, one little spot, about twenty yards by ten, was surrounded by a wire fence with net-work, and evidently cultivated with the most scrupulous care.

‘ This bit is my mother’s garden,’ said Philip. ‘1 was her gardener in the last years of her life, and cultivated this spot for her; and we tended her flowers to- gether. I keep it still in the same way. 1 cannot afford to have a regular garden- er; my men are generally employed about the estate, and more productively,’

‘ Would you like to look over the in- side of the house ?’ Philip added.

They went through all the rooms— very common-place rooms for the most part, furnished in the latter end of the eighteenth century. The only thing to distinguish them from rooms in a house a hundred years old was the great thickness of the wall, visible at every window. In the lower storey it was fully eight feet thick, and in one room nearly twelve feet.

‘Tam just beginning,’ said the owner of the Tower, ‘a work of restoration, but in a very slow and quiet way, as be- comes a man of limited income. I can earve both in wood and stone myself—noet in a refined way, like a highly-trained sculptor, but about as well as the rude ar- tists who worked all over the country in the Tudor times, In the same way I ean paint,—two—that is, illuminate io oil— when I want it fur decoration. I am not what is ealled an artist in these days— that is, a man of great technical accom- plishment, with a scientific knowledge of the figure—but I am not exactly what is callen an amateur either. Amateurs usu- ally aim at more than they can aceomplish with the amount of study they give ; but I aim at nothing that may not be done with some taste and a moderate amount of labor. Come and look at my workshop.’

Philip led the Colonel to a large room on the second floor. A joiner wasat work at a bench at one end of it ; at the other end was another bench, with tools seatter- ed over it as if a workman had recently quitted it, The joiner was planing a masssive piece of oak, and on the unoccu-

same wood, partially carved. Many frag- ments of joiners’ work, more or less orna- mented with carving, leaned against the wall and in the corners of the extensive workshop.

‘It is curious,’ observed Philip Stan-

‘Lunch, sir—yes, sir, what would you like to have. sir ?

‘ Let us have some cold beef, if there is

ct ae 9, | | Stanburne

The Colonel heartily assented, but Mrs. |

Sutcliffe looked unpleasantly serious. ‘ Please, sir, there is no cold beef.’ ‘ Well, then, give us some cold mutton.

There’s sure to be some cold mutton—we killed a sheep only last week.’ Mrs. Sutcliff disappeared, and returned

after an absence of a few minutes. ‘Please sir, there is no cold mutton—only a few bones, sir. that 1 meant te make some

soup of for the dinner, sir,’ aud then she added, ‘I'd intended to kill a fowl for your dinner,sir,but it cannot be got ready ull at once.’

Well, hang it,’ said Philip, ‘give us ham and eggs.’

‘The ham’s just finished, sir, daresay I may find some fresh eggs.’

Such conversations with Mrs. Sutcliffe were of frequent oceurrence when Philip was alone, and then they seemed natural enough. If he was told that there was no meat, it seemed to him, like the absence of sunshine,an inevitable want that it was useless to vex himself about in the present or to try to obviate for the tuture. But the presence of Colonel Stanburne set these familiar facts in a new light, and it occurred to Philip, for the first time in his life, that regularity in his housekeeps ing was merely a question of expenditure and determination. So he looked at Mrs. Suteliff with an expression in his eyes that she had never seen there since she came to live at Stanithburn Peel, and he said :

‘Mrs, Sutclifle, 1 wonder you don’t manage the house better. I give you carte blanche.’

‘ Well, sir, I know you let me have the cart wherever I require it; but I’ve been so busy in the house lately, and it is such a loug way to Rigten.’

Colonel Stanburne could not keep his gravity at this, and exploded in sonorous haughter. Mrs. Sutcliffe, much astonish- ed and somewhat hurt, made the best of her way to the kitchen, where she found the faithful Fyser, who, as our readers may perhaps remember, was Colonel Stan- burns’s own special attendant.

‘What's the colonel laughing so loud about?’ said Fyser; ‘I can hear him down here.’

‘Why, then, you should give him some- thing to eat.’

‘ There is nout.’

Fyser immediately made his way to the room where his master was,easily guid- thereto by the sound of his manly voice. ‘le taps at the door. ‘Come in.’ Eater FP yser.

‘ Please, sir, I should wish to speak to you ia private.’

‘What's the matter, now—something ubout the horses, I suppose? Pray ex- cuse we for one moment;’ and the Col- onel came out into the hal).

‘Beg pardon, sir; but the house- keeper says there’s nothing to eat.’

‘It’s very sad, Fyser—I'm dying of hunger.’

‘ Well, sir, as I didn’t know yeu would be stoppin’ here to lunch, I put up your luncheon in the dog-cart in case you was hungry on the road; and if I might be allowed to serve it, there’d be plenty both

burne, ‘that although I can carve quite as well as the country carver in Henry VIIL.’s time, I cannot approach a good modern joiner, such as James Whittaker here, in the use of the plane and in mor- tising, The reason is that carving is freer work, and when quite rude, as mine is, does not need much accuracy of hand. We have been making some wainscot late- ly, and Whittaker did the joiner’s work much better than it was usually done in old wainscot, and ivcomparab!y better than I could have done it; but when I set him to carve, his carving was rather dry and mechanical. Wasn't it, Whitta- ker?’

I cannot tell right how it is, sir,’ ans» wered Whitaker, ‘but when you do the carvin’ and me the joinery, things gets on best. It seems easy enough to cut outa hornymint same as them grapes and leaves for the curuish of your new study; but when I do it there’s no life in it, and when you do it, it’s just same as th’ ould carvin’ as was done i’ th’ time o’ Queen Elizabeth.

JAMES C. POPE.

October 30, 1876.

To the Electors of Queen’s Co.

ENTLEMEN :—The appointment of tha Hop. David Laird as the Lieutenant

Governor of the North-West Territories having caused a vacancy in the Dominion House of Commons, which you will shortly be called upon to fill, I have been solicited by a great number of electors from diflerent

parts of the County, to offer myself as a

candidate, and I take this early opportunity

of informing you of my determination to do

so, and of soliciting your support.

‘The general policy of the McKenzie Ad- ministration, based, as I belféve it to be, upon principles of honesty and justice, I recog-

and constitutional principles —a course which necessarily avoids the demoralizing

effects which invariably follow from col- lusion between Governments and wealthy

contractors Or speculators.

I am a free trader,and I am glad to know that free trade is a plank of the McKenzie platform. ‘To us in these Maritime Pro- vinces the scheme cf Protection cautiously advanced by Sir John A. MacDonald dur ing the last session of the House of Com mons, and how so earnestly advocated by him in his public speeches, is merely a scheme to take a certain amount of money from the pockets of the farmers and other consumers, and hand it over to the mann- facturers. It is unjust in the extreme, and will bear with peculiar hardship upon the people of this Island. Sir John A. Mac- Donald calls this Protective Policy of his a * live issue,” and urges his friends to rally round him in support ofit. We free traders efthese Maritime Provinces must also re- cognize the importance of this living ques- tion, and be prepared to meet it. Our merchants and traders find it hard enough te pay the present high tariffrates. If our present revenue tariff is raised into a Pro- tective one, it will mean simply so much

extra taxation placed upon our farmers,

not to carry on the Government of the

country or develop its resources, hut to enrich a small but influential body of manu-

facturers. This live issue affects, and will affect, every man’s pocket on this Island. It will not be squarely met by those who

desire to support Sir John A. McDonald's

policy. A protective tariff, they know is like separate schools—unpopular in this Island, and it will be gilded over with such

phrases as ‘** national policy,” much as the

separate school question was attempted to be hid beneath the pregnant policy of ** payment forresu!ts.”. I ask you to be on

your guard on this question.

The course adopted by Mr. McKenzie on the Pacific Railway question seems to me to be just and statesmanlike. The engage- ment to build that road was entered into by his opponents while in office, and as I understand—terribly as it may stain our resources—cannot be honorably repudiated. By extending the time for its completion,

and having the road carefully and accura-

lely surveyed before any part of it is let to

coniract, we may hope to feel the burdens

very much less, and have the assurance that we are getting the best that cau be got

for the outlay.

While, however, I agree with the general policy of the government on these great questions Iam not satisfled to give that government an unqualified support. I shall contend most strenuously and do all in my power to obtain for our Island that which I believe to be its rights, viz.: a represen- tation in the Cabinet. I believe this will be more easily and surely attained by a tirm and dignified stand being taken by our representatives than by a childish declara- tion that we will unconditionally oppose any government that will not concede the demand.

Iam also strongly opposed to any inter- ference by the Dominion Government or House of Commons with the question of Education; and while in justice I feel com- pelled to remember that the famous Section

XI of the North-West Act was not intro-

duced into the Bill by the Government, but was an amendment carried unanimously in

the House of Commons, still I cannot; as

one, absolve the Government from al! blame. I shall oppose, if elected by you, any such interference or legislation in the

future, and shall insist that the Constitus — of our country which which gives the

ocal legislature exclusive right to legislate

upon the important question of education ze preserved intact in spirit as well as in etter.

I shal] do alJ in my power to obtain our

just rights in the distribution of govern- ment patronage and public moneys, and shall specialy urge upon the government

the the great importance of carrying on in a
