CHAPTER XXV{I. (Coutinued., )

A change tk place in her; she often let her work fali, and breoded She spoke sometimes sharply to Mr. Hazel, and some- times with s raired civility. She wandered away from bim, and from his labors for her comfort, and passed hours at Telegraph Pomt, eyeing the ilimiteble ocean. She wasaridale. Ali sweetness at times, but at others pritable, moo ly, and scarce mistress of herself. Hazel was sorry and perplexed, and often expressed a fear she was ill, The answer was always in the nega- tive. He did not press her, but worked on for her, be pu yw the mood would } 488, Aud as it would, no coubr, if the cause had not remained.

Matters were s'ill in this uncomfortable and mysterious state when Hazel put his finishing stroke to her abode.

He was in high spirits that evening, for he had made a discovery; he had at last found time for a wak, and foliowed the river to its source, a very remarkable lake in a hilly basin. Near this was a pond, the water of which he had tasted and found it highly bituminous; and, making further’ researches, he had fouud at the bottom of a rocky ravine avery wonderful thing—a dark, resinous fluid bubbling up in quite a fountain, which, however, fell down again as it rose, and hardly any overflowed. It was like a thin pitch.

Of course, in another hour he was back | there with a great pot, and half filled it. | It was not like water—it did not bubble so| high when some had been taken—so he) just took what he could get. Pursuing! his researches a little farther, he found a range of rocks with snowy summits appar- ently; but the snow was the guano of cen- turies. He got tothe western extremity of the Island, saw angther deep bay, or rather branch of the sea, and on the other side of it a tongue of high land running out to sea—on that promontory stood a gigantic palm tree. He recognized that with a cer- tain thrill, but was in a great hurry to get home with his pot of pitch; for it was, in

till morning, so with embers and cocoanuts he niade a tire in the bower, and melted his pitch, which had become nearly solid, and proceeded to smear the inside of the matting in places, to make it thoroughly water-tight,

with mortifying indifference; but he hoped she would appreciate Nature’s bounty more when she saw the practical us of this He endeavored She shook her head sorrowfully. He persisted. She met him with silence. He thought this peevish, and ungrateful to Heaven; we have ail dif- ferent measures of the wonderful, and to him a fountain of pitch was a thing to admire greatly and thank God for—he said as much.

To Helen it was nasty stuff, and who cares where it came from! She conveyed as much by a shrug of the shoulders, and then gave a sigh that told mind was far away.

He was a little mortified, and showed it.

One word led to another, and at last what had been long fermenting, came out.

‘Mr. Hazel,’ said she, ‘you and I are at cross purposes. You mean to live here—I do not.’

Hazel left off working, and looked greatly perplexed, the attack was so sudden in its form, theugh it had been a long time threatening. He found nothing to say, and she was impatient now to speak her mind, so she replied to his look.

‘You are making yourself at home here. You are contented. Contented! You are happy in this horrible prison.’

‘And why not! said Hazel. And he looked rather guilty. ‘Here are no traitors—no murderers, The ani- mals are my friends, and the one human being whom I see makes me better to look at her.’

‘Mr, Hazel, I am in a state of mind that romantic nonsense jirs upon me, Be honest with me and taik to me like a map. 1 eay that you beam all over with hap- piness and content, and that you—now answer me one question, why have you never lighted the bonfire on Telegraph Point?’

‘Indeed 1 don’t know,’ he said, submis- sively. ‘I have have been so occupied.”

‘You have—and how? Not in trying to deliver us both from this dreadful situa- tion, but to reconcile me to it. Yessir, | under pretense (that is a harsh word, but | can’t help it) of keeping out the rain. Your rain is a bugbear; it never rains, it never will rain, You are killing yourself ‘almost to make me comfortable in this ‘place. Comfortable? She began to tremble

‘And do you really suppose you can make me live on like this by building me a nice hut? Do you think I am all body and no soul, that shviter, and warmth, and enough 'to eat can keep my heart from breaking «nd ‘my cheeks from blushing night and day?

leave you! Keep me here. Make me live | months and yearson this Island! Have you sisters?) Have youa mother! Ask yourseif lis it likely? No; if you will not help me, land they don’t love me enough to come land find me and take me home, I'll go to ‘another home without your help or any Then she rose suddenly to her feet, ‘I'll tie my clothes tight around me, ‘and fling myself down from that point on to ! I'll find a way

creature quite frightened her unhappy friend, who knew more of books than women. He longed to soothe her, and comfort her; but what could he say! He cried out in despair :

* My God, ean I do nothing for her ?

She tarned on him hike lightning.

‘You can do any: hing—everything. You cin restore us both to our friends, You can save my life my reason. For that wali ge first, I think, Whathed lLdone! What had | ever done since I was born, te be se brought down! Was ever an English lady ——! Andthen | have euch an irritation on my skin, oli over me, 1 sometimes wish the tiger wou'd come and teer me all to pieces—yes, all to neces.’ And with that her white teeth elicked together convul- sively. ‘Do? said she, darting back to the point as swiftly as she had rushed away from it. ‘Why, put down that nasty stuff ; ad leave off inventing fifty lite trampery thogs for me, and do one good thing instead, Oh, do not fritter that great wind of yours away in painting and patching my prison; but bring it ail to bear on getting me out of my prison. Cail sea and land to our rescue. Let them know a poor girl is here in unheard-of, wnfathom- able misery—here, ‘n the middle of this awful ocean.’

Hazel sighed deeply.

‘No ships seemed to pass within sight of us,’ he muttered.

‘What does that matter to you’ You are not a common map; you are an inventor, Rouse all the powers of your mind, There must be some way. Think forme. Tug! THINK! or my blood will be on your head,’

Hazel turned pale, and put his head in his hands, and iried to think.

She leaned toward him with great fleshing eyes of purest hazel.

The problem dropped from his lips a svilable at atime. ‘To diffuse—intelligence —a hundred leagues from a fixed point— au island?’

She leaned toward him with flashing expectant eyes,

But he groaned, and said:

‘That seems impos ible.’

‘Then trample on it,’ she said, bringing his own words against him; for she used to remember all he said to her in the day,

and ponder it at night—‘trample on it,

subdue it, or never speak to me again. Ah! I am an ily Pe awe to speak so harshly to you. It is my misery, not me. Good, kind Mr. Hazel, oh! pray, pray, pray bring all the powers of that great mind to bear on this one thing, and save a poor gi:!, to whom you have been so kind, so considerate, so noble, so delicate, so for- bearing; now save me fro ir.’ Hysterical sobs cut h here, and Hazel, whose loving heart she had almost torn ont of his body, could only falter out; in a broken voice that he would obey her: ‘I'll work uo more for you at present,’ he said, ‘sweet as it has been. I will think instead. Iwill go this moment beneath the stars and think all night.’

The young woman was now leaning her head languidly back against one of the trees, weak as water after her ion. He cast a look of ineffable love aa pity on her,

tranquil stars. Love has set men hard tasks in his time. Whether this was a light one, our reader shall decide. TO DIFFUSE INTFLLIGENCE FROM A FIXED ISLAND OVER A HUNDRED LEAGUES OF OCEAN. (To be continued, )

New London Notes. George B. McKay, Esq., has the contract for carrying the mails dally between Brad- albane Station, and Stanley, and Clifton, in New Lindon. He is getting up an ex- cellent outfit, and passengers will find it to their interest to travel with him,

Through the kindness of Mr. Coleman, Superintendent of the P. E. I. Railway, arrangements have been made by which through return tickets can be had from Charlottetown to Stanley for $1.70, single straight tickets $1.15. The travelling public will find it to their interest to patronize Mr. McKay, and the thanks of the whole commuuity are due to Mr. Cole- man, for the satisfactory arrangements which he has made with the New London daily mail stage proprietor. —Com.

The Mahdi's Rival.

The appearanae of a new religious im- postor in Khorassan may be not without influence upon the future of the Prophet of the Soudan; for, according to the almost general consensus of Mahommedan authori- ties, two other prominent personages are to arise about the same time as the veritable Mahdi. One of them is to be ‘‘a man of the children of Kahtan,” and his mission will be “the driving of the people before him with a stick.” The other is to be the Masihal Dajjhal, or False Messiah; and, unless he has been only metaphorically described, there will be no mistaking him, for, besides being one eyed, he will be branded on the brow with the word Cafer, which sigrifies Infidel, Carigusly enough, it is in Khorassan that he is to first appear; and it will therefore be the policy of the Mehdi to make out that the Seyyid who has seized Zurabad, and who is now troubling the northwest of Persia, is none other than Antichrist. It is noteworthy, in connection with this aspect of the question, that the new impos- tor prophesies the establishment of an Imamic government two years hence; and it has long been foretold of the False Messiah that his power will last only 438 days, and will then be overthrown by the forces of the faithful. —St. James’ Gazette.
