THE PIRATE.

By Sir Walter Soott.

CHAPTER VI. (Continued. )

We have said, that Mordaunt was naturally fond of romantic poetry and romantic situa- tion; it is not therefore surprising that he listened with interest to the wild address thus uttered to the wildest wind of the compass, in atone of such dauntless enthusiasm. But though he had heard so much of the Runie rhyme and of the northern spell, in the coun- try where he had so long dwelt, he was not on this occasion so credulous as to believe that the tempest, which had raged so lately, and which was now beginning to decline, was

Certain it was, that the blast seemed passing away, and the apprehended danger was al- ready over; but it was not improbable that this issue had heen for some time forseen by the Pythoness, through signs of the weather imperceptible to those who had not dwelt long

meteorological phenomena the attention of a strict and close observer. Of Norna’s exper- ience he had no doubt, and that went a far way to explain what seemed supernatural in her demeanor. Yet still the noble counten- ance, half shaded by dishevelled tresses, the air of majesty with which, in a tone of menace as well as ot command, she addressed the viewless spirit of the tempest, gave him a

of the occult arts over the powers of nature ; such authority over the laws of the universe could belong, Norna, of Fitful-head, judging from bearing, figure and face,was born to that , high destiny.

The rest of the company were less slow in receiving conviction. To Tronda and the jaggar none -was necessary ; they had long be- lieved in the full extent of Norma's authority over the elements. But Triptolemus and his sister gazed at each other with wondering and alarmed looks,especially when the wind began perceptibly to decline, as was remarkably visible during the pauses which Norna made betwixt thie strophes of her incantation. A tong silence followed the last verse, until Norna resumed her chant, but witha chang- ;ed and more soothing modulation of vc ice and | tune.

“ Hayle of the far north-western waters,

Thou nast heard the voice of the Reim-kennar,

Thou bast closed thy wide sails at her bidding,

And folded them in peace bv the side.

My blessing be on thy retiring path ! :

When thou stoopest from thy place on high,

Soft be thy slumbers in the caverns of the un-

known ocean, :

Rest tili destiny shal) again awaken thee ;

Eagle of the north-west, thou hast heard the voice of the Reim-keonar.

Lam summoned far to the east, by those who know well how to sinooth my passage.—For thee, Bryce Snails- foot,” she continued, speaking to the pediar, ‘* speed thee on to Samburgh—the Roost will afford thee a gallant harvest, and worthy the gathering in. Much goodly ware will ere now be seeking a new owner, and the careful skipper wil! sleep still enough in the deep |haaf, and care not that bale and kist are , dashing against the shores.

the Century for October

The frontispiece of the October Century is a striking portrait of Harriet Beecher Stowe, ‘engraved by T. Johnson froma _ photograph by Sarony. This poruiait is apropos of a paper by James Lane Allen, entitled *‘ Mrs. | Stowe’s ‘Uncle Tom’ at Home in Kentucky,” _ which 1ecounts the life of the Kentucky slave of the old time, in a series of typical scenes, , pointing out some considerations which it is ‘thought should qualify Mis. Stowe’s pont of view. The illustrations by Mr. Kemble, drawn from life, reprajlace characteristica!ly the epoch which Mr, Allen describes. A sketch given of the mistress of that time and her round of duties.

The paper in the series op ‘* English Ca- 'thedrals”’ is this month devoted to Kiy, Which iis called by Mrs. van Rensselaer *‘ the great queen of the fen lands. always im- posing, always superb, always tremendous. 7 Nowhere,” she says, ‘“‘is there a | more magnificent piece of handiwork.” The jtext traces the history and discusses the ar- 'tistic importance of the cathedral. Mr. Pen neil’s drawings, which are not less interesting or effective than in the previous articles of the series, confirm the writer's statement that there 1s no direction from which the cathedral may not be well seen, | ‘*The American Game of Foot-Ball” is the subject of a paper by Professor Alexander Johnston, of Princeton College, in which the {development of the Rugby game-on this side }of the Atlantic is described, and interesting ‘aspects of the game are considered. This ;paper is admirably illustrated with spirited ‘drawings by Irving R. Wiles, showing ‘* A | Touch Down,” ‘‘ A Foul Tackle, High,” “A Foul Tackle, Low,” ‘‘A Fair Tackle,” ** Breaking Through tie Rush Line,” and ‘other scenes in the game. | Mr. Stedwan contributes a paper of criti- icism, entitled ‘‘Twelve Years of British ‘Song,’ being chietly extracts from the forth- ‘coming supplement to the next edition of ‘** Victorian Poets,” most of which, it will be ;remembered, appeared in the Century. The later works of Tennyson, Browning, Swin- jburne and the younger English poets here ‘receive critical attention. **The Hundredth Man,” by Mr. Stockton, | reaches its conclusion in the present number | with a denonement which will be somewhat of ,4 surprise to many readers. The third and last part of Mr Harris’ novelette, ‘* Azalia,” is also given. The short story of the number

agriculturist to his sister; ‘‘ we must speak her fair, Baby—she will maybe part with the secret for a hundred punds Scots.”

‘* An hundred fules’ heads! replied Baby “bid her five marks of ready siller. I never knew a witch in my life but she was as poor as Job.’

Norna turned toward them as if she had guessed their thoughts; it may be that she did so. She passed them with a look of the most sovereign coutempt, and walking to the table on which the preparations for Mrs. Barbara’s frugal meal were already disposed, she fillel a small wooden quaigh from an earthern pitcher which contained bland, a subacid liquor made out of the serous part of the milk. She broke a single morsel from a barley cake, and having eaten and drunk, ' returned towards the churlish hosts. ‘i give | you no thanks,” she said, ‘‘for my refresh-

ment, for you bid me not welcome to it ; and bestowed. on a churl are like the dew of heaven on the cliffs of Foulah, where it finds nought that can be refreshed by its in- fluences. I give you no thanks,” she said again, but drawing from a pocket a leather purse that seemed large and heavy, she added “I pay you with what you will value more than the gratitude of the whole inhabit- ants of Hialtland. Say not that Norna of Fitful-head hath eaten of your bread and drunk of your cup, and left you sorrowing tor the charge to which she hath put your house.” So saying, she laid on the table a small piece of antique gold coin, bearing the rude and half-defaced eflizies of some ancient northern king.

Triptolemus and his sister exclaimed against this liberality with vehemence ; the first, pro-

exélaiming, ‘‘Is the earline mad?” Heard ye ever of ony of the gentle house of Clinkscale that gave meat for tiller?”

‘“Or for love either?” muttered her brother; “haud to that, tittie.”

“What are ye whittie-whattieing about, ye gowk ?” said his gentle sister, who suspected the tenor of his murmurs; ‘‘gie the lady back her bonnie-die there, and be blithe to be sae rid on’t—it will be a sclate-stane the morn, if not something worse.”

The honest factor lifted the money to return it, yet could not help being struck when he saw the impression, and his hand trembled as he banded it to his sister.

“Yes,” said the Pythoness again, as if she read the thoughts of the astonished pair, “you have seen the coin befo1e— beware how you use it! It thrives not with the sordid or the mean-souled—it was won with honorable danger, and must be expended with honorable liberality. The treasure which lies under a cold hearth will one day, like the hidden talent, bear witness against its avari- cions possessors.”’

This last obscure intimation seemed to raise the alarm and the wonder of Mrs. Baby and her brother to the uttermost. The tried to stammer out something like an invitation to Norna to tarry with them all night, or at least to take share of the ‘dinner,’ so he at first called it; but looking at the company, and remembering the limited contents of the pot, he cerrected the phrase, and hoped she would take some part of the ‘snack, which would be on the table ere a man could louse a pleugh.’

‘*T eat not here—I sleep not here,” replied

own presence, but I will dismiss your unwel- come guests—Mordaunt,” she added, address- ing young Mercoun, ‘*the dark fit is passed and your father looks for you this evening.”

‘Do you return in that direction?” said Mordaunt. ‘I will but eat a morsel and give you my aid, good mother, on the road, the brooks must be out and the journey perilous.”

The Lincoln History consists of a concise recital of the Secession Movement as exhibited in Congress, in the Cabinet of Buchanan, and in the correspondence of certain of the Souths ern leaders. A chapter is devoted to the secession of South Carolina and to affairs in Charleston Harbor, and another to the Com- missioners from South Carolina, and _ the growth of the movement in the different States is also rapidly traced. The November part will deal with the President-elect at Spring- field.

The papers in the War consist. of “Marching Through Georgia and the Caro linas,” by Captain Daniel Oakey; *‘Sherman’s Mareh from Savannah to Bentonville,” by Genéral Hampton; these papers prescuting a graphic view of Sherman's operations after Atlanta, which is reinforced by a number of interesting pictures, many of which are from war-time photographs or sketches. Among the illustrations are “Sherman and his Gen erals,” ‘‘Sherman’s Troops Destroying Rail- roads,” “The Storming of the Salkehatchie River,” “Crossing the North Edisto, ‘“Ruius of Columbia,” and skete es at the Saluda, Juniper Creek, Fayetteville and Ben- tonville. Portraits of Generals Blain, Wade Hampton, Hoke, and MeLaws are also given. The battle series will close in the November number with the ‘‘Appomattox Campaign,’ other war articles of a general or untechnical nature, including General Sherman's ‘‘Grand Strategy of the War,” being left over for fu- ture occasional publication.

The poetry of the number includes contri butions by Richard E. Burton, Ellen M, H. Gates, Julia C. R. Dorr, Samuel W. Duttield, Sarah M. B. Piatt, Helen Gray Cone, Louise Imogen Guiney, Robert burns Wilson, to- ‘gether with ** sric-a-Brac’”’ verse of the lighter type by Harrison 8. Morris, Esther B. Tiffany, James B. Kenyon, and Winifred Howells.

In ‘‘Topics of the Time” are editorial articles entitled ‘‘Soldier and Citizen,” ‘Per sonal Records of the War,” ‘The Last Hope of the Mormans,” ‘‘The Jury System,” and :**Shall Immigration be Restricted ?” | There are ‘Open Letters” on “Christian ‘Union and Baptism,” by the Rev.
