seen as a black speck amongst the waters, and | then, at a nearer distance, like a whale, which | now scarce shows its back-fin above the waves, | now throws to view his large black side. Now, | however, they could more distinctly observe

the appearance of the ship, for the huge} swelling waves which bore her forward to the shore, heaved her alternately high upon the

surtace, and then plunged her into the trough | or furrow of the sea. She seemed a_ vessel of | two or three hundred tons, fitted up for.

had probably been dismasted in the gale yes- terday, and lay water-logged on the waees, a prey to their vielence. It appeared certain. that the crew,finding themselves either unable to direct the vessel’s course, or to relieve her by pumping, had taken to their boats, and left her to her fate. All apprehensions were therefore unnecessary, so far as the immediate loss of human life was concerned; and yet it was not without a feeling of breathless awe that Mordaunt and his father beheld the vessel — that rare masterpiece by which genius aspires to surmount the waves, and contend with the winds, upon the point of falling a prey to them.

Onward she came, the large black hulk seeming larger at every fathom’s length. She came nearer until she bestrode the summit of one tremendous billow, which rolled on with her unbroken, till the wave and its burden were precipitated against the rock, and then the triumph of the elements over the work of human hands was at once completed. One wave, we have said, made the wrecked vessel completely manifest in her whole bulk, as it raised her, and bore her onward against the face of the precipice. But when that wave receded from the foot of the rock, the ship had ceased to exist; and the retiring billow only bore back a quantity of beams, planks, casks, and similar objects, which swept out to the offing, to be brought in again by the next wave, and again precipitated upon the face of the rock.

It was at this moment that Mordaunt con- ceived he saw a man floating on a plank or water-cask, which, drifting away from the main current, seemed aout to go ashore on a small spot of sand, where the water was shallow, and the waves broke “more smoothly. To see the danger, and to exclaim, ‘He lives and may yet besaved !” was the first impulse of the fearless Mordaunt. The next was, after one rapid glance at the front of the cliff, to precipitate himself—such seemed the rapidity of his movement>-from the verge, and to commence, by means of slight fissures, pro- jections and crevices in the rock, a descent, which, to a spectator, appeared little else than an act of absolute insanity.

** Stop, | command you, rash boy !” said his father; ‘‘the attempt is death. Stop, and take the safer path to the left.” But Mor- daunt was already completely engaged in his perilous enterprise.

“Why should | prevent him?’ said his father checking his anxiety with the stern and unfeeling philosophy whose principals he had adopted. ‘Should he die now, full of generous and high feeling, eager in the cause of humanity, happy in the exertion of his own conscious activity and youthful strength—

thropy, and remorse, and age, and the con- sciousness of decaying powers, both ot body and mind? Iwill not look upon it, however —will not--I cannvt behold his young light so suddenly quenchdd.”

He turned from the precipice accordingly, and hastening to the left for more than a quar- ter of a mile, he proceeded towards a riva, or aleft in the rock, containing a path called Erick's Steps, neither safe, indeed, nor easy, but the only one by which the inhabitants of Jarlshof were wont, for any purpose, to seek access to the foot of the precipice.

But long ere Mertoun had reached even the upper end of the pass, his adventurous and active son had accomplished his more desper- ate enterprise. Hehad been in vain turned aside fiom the direct line of descent, by the intervention of difficulties which he had not seen from above—his route became only more cireuiteus, but could not be interrupted. More than once la:ge fragments, to which he was about to intrust his weight, gave way before him, and thundered down into the tor- mented ocean; and in one er two instances such detached pieces of rock rushed after him, as if to bear him headlong in their course. A courageous heart, a steady eye, a tenacious hand and a firm foot, carried him through his desperate attempt ; and in the space of seven minutes he stood at the bottom of the cliff, from the verge of which he had achieved his perilous descent.

The place which he now oceupied was the small projecting spot of stones, sand and gravel, that extended a little way into the sea, which on the right hand lashed the very bot- tom of the precipice, and onthe left was scarce divided from it by a smali wave-worn portion of beach that extended as far as the foot of the rent in the rocks called Erick’s

Steps, by which Mordaunt’s father proposed '

to descend.

(To be continued.)

THRE is an eclipse this year that the as- tronomers failed to note. It was the eclipse

line.

He further states *‘ that all Commission- ers were treated alike as far as possible.” By this he admits that all were not treated alike, and that is exactly what | complain- ed about.

And because I wrote as I did he accuses me of being actuated by a ‘‘ miserable spirit, etc.” | have just as good grounds for accusing him of being actuated by todyism and servility.

His bluster about patriotic motives is characteristic of the source from which it emanates. Patriotism is a fav urite theme with persons like your correspondent ‘* Q. C. Com’r.”” But they are never so patriotic as when they are well paid forthe article.

The Trot at Peake’s Station. Srm,—-The Patriot of the 3rd inst. incor- rectly states that Mr. Kennedy’s mare ‘*Nellie T.” won four of the five heats trot- ted at Peake’s Station. The judges gave her butone. We agreed to abide by the decision of the judges, and had it been in his favor | would not have complained. He seems anxious to have another match, and I am ready to accommodate him. Although I have never refused to start ‘Scott Act” in any race, [ would like in justice bo my horse to match him with a trotter, and not with one that runs half the course each heat. If Mr. Kennedy will agree to trot and not run his mare, and have Dr. Jen- kins as referee, I am ready to match him, and he knows where I live, I may further say that his driver, Steele, besides acting unfairly in other ways, fouled my horse, and might have killed Mr. Hayden his driver during the last match.

As Mr. Steele is notorious for foul driv- ing, I think it but fair another should drive the mare next time, as the life of a man or a valuable horse should not be exposed to his rashness or worse.

Yours truly, ALBERT DUNPHY.

Charlottetown, Oct. 3, 1887.

Kings Couvty Exhibition Notes,

Considerable horse trading took place at the Exhibition at Georgetown, among the traders present being Mr. James Keegan, the well known horse buyer, and Mr. Wm. McKie, of Charlottetewn. Mr. Keegan purchased the celebrated breeding mare Sunflower, for which a handsome sum was paid. Mr. Ewen McGregor, of Montague, sold his first prize filly to Mr. W. Robert- son, ot Charlottetown, and many other horses changed hands. The sale of Gov- ernment Farm stock realized handsome prices, and King’s County farmers showed that they are bound to have good stock,and are willing io pay for it.

Among the stock raisers who took first place at the King’s County Exhibtion the exhibit of Mr. F. G. Bovyer, of George- town Royalty, was noticeable. He had thirty entries of live stock, and took over $60 in prizes.

John Robertson, Esq., of Inkerman Farm, had two barrels of Island grown apples in the Drill Shed that attracted a good deal of attention, and he readily sold them at high prices.

The Cornwall Cheese Company also, had samplesof theircheese at the King’s County Exhibition, and, no Sdoubt, will materially increase their sales in consequence.

Give Them a Chance !

That is to say, your lungs. Also all your breathing machinery. Very wonderful machinery it is. Not only the larger air passages, but the thousands of little tubes and cavities leading from them.

When these are clogged and choked with matter which ought not to be there, your lungs cannot half it their work. And what they do they cannot do well.

Call it cold, cough, croap, pneumonia, catarrh, cansumption or any of the family of throat and nose.and head and lung obstruc- tions, all are bad. All ought to be got rid of. There is just one sure way to get rid of them. That is to take Boschee’s German Syrup, which any druggist will sell at 75 cents a bottle. Even if everything else has failed you, you may depend upon this for certain.
