CHAPTER XX. ( Continued. )

** The tongues of fools are no reproach,” re- ‘plied Brenda, warmly; ‘‘I will never quit my own thoughts of an innocent friend for the gossip of tle island, which can put the worst meaaing on the most innocent actions.”

** Hear but what our friends say,” repeated

|Minua; ‘hear but the Lady Glowrowrum;

hear but Maddie and Ciara Groatsettar.”

“If I were to. hear Lady Glowrowrum,” said Brenda, steadily, ‘‘ Eshould listen to the worst tongue in Zetland; and as for Maddie and Clara Groatsettar, they were both blithe enorigh to get Mordaunt to sit betwixt them at dinner the day before yesterday, as you might have observed yourself, but that your ear was better engaged.”

‘Your eyes, at least, have been but in- differently engaged, Brenda,” retorted the elder sister, ‘‘since they were fixed on a young man whom all the world but yourself believes to have talked of us with the most insolent presumption; and even if he be inno- cently charged, Lady Glowrowrum says it is unmaidenly and bold of you even to look in the direction where he sits, knowing it must conjirm such reports.”

“*T will look which way I please,” said Brenda, growing still warmer; ‘‘ Lady Glow- rowrum shall neither rule my thoughts, nor my words, nor my eyes. I hold Mordaunt Mertoun to be innocent—I will look at him as such—lI will speak of him as such; and if I did not speak to him also, and behave to him as usual, it is in obedience to my father, and not for Lady Glowrowrum anc all her neices, had she twenty instead of two, could think, wink, nod or tattle about the matter that concerns them not,”

‘* Alas, Brenda,” answered Minna, with calmness, ‘‘this vivacity is more than is required for the cCefence of the character of a mere friend. Beware. He who ruined Norna’s peace for ever, was a stranger, admitted to her affections agains ‘tthe will of her family.”=

** He was a stranger,” replied Brenda, with emphasis, ‘* not only in birth, but in man- ners. She had not been bred up with him from her youth,—she had not known the gen- tleness, the frankness of his disposition,but an intimacy of many years. He was indeed a stranger, in character, temper, birth, manners, and morals,— some wandering adventurer, per- haps, whom chance or tempest had thrown upon the islands, and who knew how to mask a false heart with a frank brow. My good sister, take home your own warning. There are other strangers at Burgh-Westra besides this poor Mordaunt Mertoun.”’

Minnaseemed fora moment overwhelmed with the rapidity with which her sister re- torted her suspicion and her caution. But natural lottiness of dispvsition enabled her to reply with assumed composure.

‘“*Were 1 to treat you, Brenda, with the want of confidence you shew towards me, I might reply, that Cleveland is no more to me than Mordant was; or than young Swaraster, or Lawrence Ericson, or any ot er favorite guest of my father’s, now is. But I scorn to deceive you, or to disguise my thoughts. I love Clement Cleveland.”

** Do not say so, dearest sister,” said Brenda abandoning at once the air of acrimony with which the conversation had been latterly con- ducted, and throwing her arms around her sister’s neck, with looks, and with a tone, of the most earnest affection,—‘‘ do not say so, I implore you! I will renounce Mordaunt Mer- voun,—I will swear never to speak to him again; but do not repeat that you love this Cleveland.”

‘*And why should I not repeat,” said Minna, disengaging herself gently from her sister's grasp ‘** a sentiment in which I glory? The boldness, the strength and energy, of his character, to which command is natural, and fear unknown,—these very properties, which alarm you for my happiness, are the qualities which ensure it. Remember, Brenda, that when your foot loved the calm smooth sea- beach of the summer sea, mine ever delighted in the summit of the precipice, when the waves are in fury.”

‘© And it is even that which I dread,” said Brenda ; ‘‘it is even that adventrous disposi- tion which now is urging you to the brink of a precipice nore dangerous than; ever was wash- ed by a spring tide. This main,do not frown, i will say no slander of him,—‘but is he not, even in your own partial judgraent, stern and overbearing ? accustomed, as you say, to com- mand ; but, for that very reason, commanding where he hasno right todo sv, and leading whom it would most become him to follow ? rushing on danger, rather for bis own sake, than for any other object? And can you think of being yoked with aspirit so unsettled and stormy, whose life has hitherto been led in scenes of death and peril, and who, even while sitting by your side, cannot disguise his im- patience again to engage inthem? A lover, methinks, should love his mistress better than nis own life ; but yours, my dear Minna, loves her less than the pleasure of inflicting death on others.”

‘* And it is even for that I love him,” said Minna. ‘‘I am a daughter of the old dames of Norway, who could send their lovers to battle with a amile, and slay them, with their own hands, if they returned with dishonor. My lover must scorn the mockeries by which our degraded race strive for distinction, or must practise them only in sport, and in earnest of nobler dangers. No whale-striking, bird-nesting favorite forme; my lover must be a Sea-king, or what else modern times may give that draws near to that lofty char- acter.”

BARON HIRSCH’S MUNIFICENT GIFT TO HIS CO-RELIGIONSTS ‘IN RUSSIA.

The Pesther Llyod recently announced that Baron Hirsch had given $20,000,000 to be distributed among the Hebrew com- munities of Europe and Hebrew charities in proportions corresponding to their necessities. This news was contradicted, and, in point of fact, in this form it was inaccurate. The true version is the follow- ing: About three months ago, some days before the departure fur Copenhagen of the emperor of Russia, Baron Hirsch sent a letter to the Czar in which he offered a sum of $10,000,000 to found in Russia primary schools for Hebrews and $200,000 to be at the disposal of the Czar for works of charity. The Czar wrote a note on the letter, and requested the Russian minister of the interior to report verbally upon it on his return to Russia. The offer thus remained a dead letter for three months. During this time those wh» knew of it asked if Baron Hirsch, justly offended by this delay, would not withdraw his promise, and if such delay did not expose this great and generous idea to the risk of not being realized. These fears are now at an end. On the return of the Czar he received the verbal report of his minister of the interior on the subject, and signed his acceptance of the gift. The $10,000,000 are to be paid into the Bank of England, and Baron Rothschild and Baron DeWorms, who were appointed trustees,and who will be replaced in case of death, will receive the interest of the sum so deposited. It is estimated that, with its annual interest of about $500,000, it will be possible to open 1,000 schools, receiving 200,000 children, who will thus be rescued from ignorance and bad example. Never has such a munificent gift been made by a rich man in his lifetime to the destitute.

— —> - oS Discipline the Eye.

A very good way to discipline the mechanical eye is to first measure an inch with the eye, then prove it with a rule, then measure a half inch, then an sighth, and so on, and you will soon be able to dis- cover at a glance the difference between a twelfth and a sixteenth of an inch; then go to three inches, six, twelve, and so op. Some call this guessing; there is no guess work about it. It is measuring with the eye and mind. Acquire the habit of criti- cising for imperfections every piece of work that you see; do everything as nearly as you can without measuring (or spoiling it), or as nearly as you can trust the eye with If you cannot see things mechanically, do not blame the eye for it; it is no more to blame than the mouth is because we cannot read, or the fingers because we can not write. A per- son may write a very good hand with the eyes closed, the mind, of course, directing the fingers. The eye is necessary, how

ever, to detect imperfections. Every eperation in life requires a mechanica'ly trained eye, and we should resize more than we do the great importance of pro- perly training that organ.
