CHAPTER XXX, (Continued. )

** You needed to have had recourse to Norna’s wisdom, Master Factor,” said Minna, not unwilling, perhaps, to stop his railing against the friend who so lately rendered her service ; *‘ the youngest child in Orkney could have told you, that fairy treasures, if they are not wisely employed for the good of others, as well as of those to whom they are imparted, do not dwell long with their rs.”

*“Your humble servant to command, Mistress Minnie,’ said Triptolemus; ‘I thank ye forthe hint,—and I am blithe that you have gotton your wits—! beg par- don, I meant your health—into the barn-

yard again. For the treasure, I neither used

nor abused it,—they that live in the house with my sister Baby wad dod it hard to do either !—and as for speaking of it, whilk they say muckle offends them whom we in Scotland call Good Neighbors, and you call Drows, the face of the auld Norse kings on the coins themselves, might have spoken as rauch about it as ever I did.”

‘The Factor,” said Claud Halcro, not unwilling to seize the opportunity of re- venging himself on Triptolemus, for dis- gracing his seamanship and disparaging his music, —** The Factor was so scrupulous, as to keep the thing quiet even from his master, the Lord Chamberlain; but, now that the matter has taken wind, he is likely to have to account to his master for that which is no longer in his possession ; for the Lord Chamberlain will be in no hurry, I think, to believe the stury of the dwarf. Neither do I think” (winking tothe Udal- ler) ‘‘that Norna gave credit to a word of so odd a story ; and I dare say that was the reason that she received us, I must needs say, ina very dry manner, I rather think she knew that Triptolemus, our friend here, had found some other hiding-hole for the money, and thet the story of the goblin For my part, I will never believe there was such a dwarf to be seen as the creature Master Yellow- ley describes, until I set my own eyes on him.”

‘*Then you may do so at this moment,” said the Factor ; ‘‘ for, by "(he mut- tered a deep asseveration as he sprung on his feet in great horror,) ‘* there the crea- ture is !”’

All turned their eyes in the direction in which he pointed, and saw the hideous vitkehepan’ Highs’ of Passloe, with his eyes fixed and glaring at them through the smoke. He had stolen upon their conver- sation unperceived, until the Factor’s eye lighted upon him in the manner we have described. There was something so ghastly in his sudden and unexpected appearance, that even the Udaller, to whom his form was familiar, could not help starting.

testified this degree of emotion, however slight, nor with the dwarf who had given cause to it, Magnus asked him sharply, what was his business there? Pacolet re- plied by producing a letter, which he gave to the Udaller, mttering a sound resembling the worp Shogh (in Galeic, there.)

‘*That is the Highlandman’s language,” said the Udaller—‘‘didst thou learn that, Nicholas, when you lost your own ?”’ Pacolet nodded, and signed to him to read his letter.

‘* That is no such easy matter by fire- light, my good friend,” replied the Udaller; ‘*but it may concern Minna, and we must t on

eds offered her assistance, but the Udaller answered, ‘‘ No, no, my girl,— Norna’s letters ust be read by those they are written to. Give the knave, Strump- fer, a drop of brandy the while, though he little deserves it. at my hands, considering the grin with which he sent the good Nantz down the crag this morning, as if it had been as much ditch-water.”’

‘* Will you be this honegt gentleman’s cup-bearer—his Ganymede, friend Yellow- ley, or shall 1?” said Claud Halero aside to the Factor; while Magnus Troil, having carefully wiped his spectacles, which he produced from a large copper case, had disposed them cn his nose, and was study- ing the epistle of Norna.

‘*T would not touch him, or go near, for all the Carse of Gowrie,” said the Factor, whose fears weve by no means entirely removed, though he saw that the dwarf was ‘eceived as a creature of flesh and blood by the rest of the company, *‘‘ but I pray you to ask him what he has done with my horn of coins?”

The dwarf, who heard the question, threw back hia head, and displayed his enormous threat, pointing to it with his finger.

‘* Nay, if ne has swallowed them, there is no more to be said,’’ replied the Factor ; ‘‘only I hope he will thrive on them as a cow on wet clover. He is dame Norma's servant it’s lik®,—such man, such mistress! But if theft and witchcraft are to go un- punished in this land, my Lord must find another factor; for I have been used to live in a country where men’s worldly gear was kaepit from infang and outfang thief, as well as theit immortal ‘souls from the claws of the deil and his cummers—~sain and save us!”

The agriculturist was perhaps the least reserved in expressing his complaints, that the Udaller was for the present out of hear- ing, having drawn Claud Halcro apart into

another corner of the hut.

“And tell :ae,” said he, ** friend Halcro, what errand tvok thee to Samburg, since I reckon it was'scarce the mere pleasure of sailing in partnership with yonder bar- nacle.”

‘“ In faith, Fowd,” said the bard, ‘* and if you will have the trath, I went to speak to Norna on your affairs. ”

“On my affatrs,” replied the Udaller, ef ; : i ;

** Just touching your daughter's health. I heard that Norna refused your message, and would not see Kric Scambester. Now, said I to myself, I have scarce joyed in meat or drink, or music, or aught else, since Jarto Minna has been so ill; and I may say, literally as well as_ figuratively, that my day and night have been made sor- rowful tome. In short, I thought I might have some more interest with old Norna than another, as scalds and wise women were always accounted something akin; and I undertook the journey with the hope to be of some use to my old friend and his lovely daughter.”

A Thrilling Shipwreck. The following interesting story of an alleged shipwreck, near Port Tour, has been telegraphed the Boston Herald from St. John, N. B. :—‘*‘ A man who has just arrived from Barrington, brings tidings of a fearful wreck there Friday. During a southeast gale, at 2.30 a.m. that day, the fishing schooner Finance, of Gloucester, was wrecked on the southeast corner of Blanche Point, near Port LaTour, Shelburne County. The only way the crew could be saved was by swimming to a small island connected with the mainland by a bar at low tide. One volunteered, and, with a line around him, started for the shore. When fifty yards from the vessel he asked to be drawn back. Why he did so will never be known. When near the vessel he was carried under it, and on puiling up the rope nothing but a boot came to the surface. Another tried it, got to the shore, fastened the rope to a rock, and the others then hauled themselves ashore, but with great difficulty. The first to land was so exhausted and cold that he died. For ten hours the

others suffered from biting winds before they could be taken from the island, There was no chance to light a fire, and the captain's

feet, as well as those of some of the crew, were frozen. The Finance was on a haddock- ing trip, and had been out since the 5th, bat Being out of fuel they were The crew are being The American consul has gone there to look after them. Only two of the men are Canadians.
