THE PIRATE.

| By Sir Walter Soott. ‘ 1

CHAPTER XII. (Continued. )

He was disturbed in these hasty reflections | by Cleveland, who advanced, with military \frankness, to pay his compliments to his pre- server, having only delayed long enough to permit the exchange of the ordinary salutation betwixt the visitor and the ladies of family. He made his approach with so good a grace, that it was impossible for Mordaunt, although he dated his loss of favor at Burgh-Westra from the stranger's appearance on the coast, and domestication in the family, to do less than return his advances as courtesy demand- ed, accept his thanks with an appearance of satisfaction,and hope that his time had passed pleasantly since their last meeting.

Cleveland was about to answer, but he was anticipated by the little old man, formerly noticed, who now trusting himself forward, and seizing Mordaunt’s hand, kissed him on the forehead; and then at the same time echoed and answered his question—*‘ How passes time at Burgh-Westra? Was it you that asked it, my prince of the cliff and of the scaur? How should it pass, but with all the wings that beauty and joy can add to help its flight !”

‘*And wit and song, too, my good old friend,” said Mordaunt, half-serious, half- jesting, as he shook the old man cordially by the hand—‘‘ These cannot be wanting, where Claud Halcro comes !”

*‘ Jeer me not, Mordaunt, my good lad,” replied the old man ; ‘‘ when your foot is as slow as mine, your wit frozen, and your song out of tune——”

‘**How can you belie yourself, my good master?” answered Mordaunt, who was not unwilling to avail himself of his old friends peculiarities to introduce something like conversation, break the awkwardness of this singular meeting, and gain time for observa- tion, ere requiring an explanation of the change of conduct which the family seemed to have adopted towards him. ‘‘Say not so,” he continued. ‘*Time,my old friend, lays his hand lightly on the bard. Have I not heard you say, the poet partakes the im- morality of his song? and surely the great English poet, you used to tell us of, was elder than yourself when he pulled the bow-oar among all the wits of London.”

This alluded to a story which was, as the French term it, Halcro’s cheval de hattaille, and any allusion to which was certain at once to place him in the saddle, and to push his hobby-horse into full career.

- His laughing eye kindled with a sort of enthusiasm, which the ordinary folk of this world might have called crazed, while he dashed into the subject which he best loved to talk upon. ‘* Alas, alas! my dear Mor- daunt Mertoun, silver is silver, and waxes not dim by use—and pewter is pewter, and grows the longer the duller. It is not for poor Claud Halcro to name himself in the same twelve-

it is, as ] may have told you before, that I have seen that great man, nay, I have been in the Wits’ Coffee-house, as it was then called, and hadonce a pinch out of his own very snuff-box. I must have told you all how it happened, but here is Captain Cleveland who never heard it. I lodged, you must know, in Russel Street—I question not but you know Russel Street, Covent Garden, Captain Cleve- Ind ?”

““I should know its latitude pretty well, Mr. Halcro,” said the Captain smiling ; ‘‘ but I believe you mentioned the circumstance yesterday, and besides we have the day’s duty in hand—you must play us this sung which we are to study.”

‘* It will not serve the turn now,” said Hal- cro, ‘‘we must think of something that will take in our dear Mordaunt, the first voice in the island, whether for a part or solo. I will never be he who will touch a string to you, unless Mordaunt Mertoun is to help us out. What say you, my fairest Night?—what think you my sweet Dawn of Day?” he added, addressing the young women, upon whom, as we have said elsewhere, he bad long before bestowed these allegorical names.

‘*Mr. Mordaunt Mertoun,” said Minna, **has come too late to be of our band on this occasion-—it is our misfortune, but it cannot be helped.”

‘“*How? what?” ssid Halcro, hastily ; ‘too late—and you have practiced together all your lives? Take my word, my bonny lasses, that old tunes are sweetest, and old friends su,est. Mr. Cleveland has a fine bass, that r:4st be allowed; but I would have you trust for the first effect to one ot the twenty fine airs youcan sing where Mordaunt’s tenor joins so well with your own witchery-—here is my lovely Day approves the change in her heagt.”

‘*You were never in your life more mis-

taken, father Haler.,” said Brenda, her cheeks again reddening, more with displea- sure, it seemed, than with shame. ** Nay, but how is this ?” pausing, and looking at them alternately. ‘** What have we got here?—a cloudy night anda red mvorning’—that betokens rough weather.—What means all this, young women ?—where lies the offence ?—-In me, I fear ; for the blame is always laid upon the oldest when young folks like you go by the ears.”

‘The blame is not with yeu,father Halcro,” said Minna. rising, and taking her sister by

the arm, ‘‘ifindeed there be blame any- where.” ‘*] should fear then, Minna,” said Mor-

‘daunt, endeavoring to soften his tone into one of indiffereut pleasantry, “that the new comer has brought the offence along with him.”

** When no offence is taken,” replied Minna, with her usual gravity, “it matters not by whom such may have been afforded.”

‘“‘Is it possible, Minna!” exclaimed Mor- daunt, ‘‘ and is it you who speak thus to me? —And you too, Brenda, can you too judge so harshly of me, yet without permitting me one moment of honest and frank explanation ?”

**Those who should know best,” answered Brenda, in a low Sut decisive tone of voice,

Captain Cleveland,’ he continued, *‘ know

you anything that has happened to put these

two juvenile Graces out of tune ?”

“He willlose his reckoning,” answered Cleveland, ‘“‘that spends time in inquiring why the wind shifts a point, or why a woman changes her mind. Were I Mr. Mordaunt, I would not ask the proud wenches another question on such a subject.”

“Itisa triendly advice, Captain Cleve- land,” replied Mordaunt, ‘‘and I will not hold it the less so that it has been given un- asked, Allow me to inquire if you are your- self as indifferent to the opinion of your female friends as it seems you would have me to be?”

‘Who, 1?” said the Captain, with an air of frank indifference, ‘‘I never thought twice upon such a subject. 1] never saw a woman worth thinking twice about after the anchor was a-peak—on shore it is another thing; and I will laugh, sing, dance, and make love, if they like it, with twenty girls, were they but half so pretty as those who have left us, and make them heartily welcome to change their course in the sound of a boatswain’s whistle. It will be odds but I wear as fast as they can.” ;

The Smartest Girl

Reporter.

The smartest girl reporter in America, it is said, is employed on the Denver Repub- tican. She is a young woman, good looking, and fairly glowing with the rosiest kind of health. Her name is Jennie Hopkins, and she has written a book and contributed several very pretty ideas to the Eastern journals and magazines; but her newspaper work is the mest remarkable. She has been with the Denver Republican for two years, and in that time she Nas more than held her own against all the male talent in the town. She takes assignments like a man, and can attend to the routine of the Courts or any ef the public departments with as much @ase as any gentleman on the staff of the paper. She goes everywhere, and is afraid of nobody and nothing. Her perfect man- ners, and thoroughly ladylike qualities compel respect, and whether she is writing up a baseball match or a murder, she wreathes it with a charm of rhythmic lan- guage that asserts her to be an artiste. She writes society, of course, but hesitates at nothing, and I do believe that if she was assigned to report a prize fight she'd simply ask where it was to be and when, and train time would find her at the depot with the crowd that was going to the mill. Miss Hopkins has the newspaper instinct more fully developed than any other women in America. Those whv are capable judges are fond of saying that she is the best news- paper man in Colorado.

The Bath in Persia.

The bath takes up a good deal of the time of all Persian women. Even the poor- est will attend the hamman at least once a week. Forthe lady the bath is one of the serious affairs of life, and takes up daily from two to four hcurs of her time. It is something more than our idea of a bath. The victim is scraped and rubbed and par- boiled. The soles of the feet are pumiced until they are sore and tender as those of a little child. The hair is thoroughly washed by means of hot water and the saponaceous clay for which Shiraz is celebrated. Then the attendants mix in a brazen bowl the aromatic henna with the requisite amount ot lemon juice till a brown paste of the con- sistency of gruel is produced, and several handfulls of the repulsive looking compound are smeared over the lady’s head. Then the hair, collected into a mass, is bound up in cabbage leaves. Small quantities of the dye are smeared over the eyebrows ; the soles of the feet, the toes, the palms of the hands, and the finger tips are also covered with it. And now the lady has to sit per- fectly still for from one to three hours, till like a meerschaum pipe, she colors; and it is exactly the color obtained on the best specimens of the pipes that is most fashion

able among the Persian ladies. Day after day the bath is thronged with women, each sitting perfectly still for the color to “‘take.” But they have their reward, for the henna dyes the hair a beautiful, deep, warm chest- nut, hence grey hair is unknown among Persian ladies. —St. James Gazette,

i ~ English Coin and Currency.

The issue of the new British coin, the double florin or dollar, is the beginning of the end of the old pounds, shillings, pence and farthings division of British money. For a long time the pound has been regarded as an inconvenient unit of monetary Value and many schemes have been proposed to remedy the fault, but none were adopted. The London Chamber of Commerce has now under eonsideration |4 plan making the 4-shilling piece the unit jof value or dollar and dividing it into cents. By this plan nearly all the existing coins can de utilized without creating any confusion from having a double standard of unit value in force. ‘The sovereign would become five dollars, two shillings a half a dollar, one shilling twenty-five cents, while the new coins would be ten and five cents, the new penny two cents and the half- penny one cent. The change is sure to come, and though the old coins may yet |remain a long time in use, their names will be changed, and they will bear a much | more convenient and uniform relative value to each other.
