CHAPTER XII. (Continued, )
A patient is seldom pleased with that sort of consolation which is founded on holding light the malady of which he complains; and | Mordaunt felt disposed to be offended with Captain Cleveland, both for taking notice of
his embarrassment, and intruding upon him ;his own opinion; and he replied, therefore, |somewhat sharply, ‘‘ that Captain Cleveland’s Sentiments were only suited to such as had ‘the art to become universal favorites where- /ever chance happened to throw them, and who |could not lose in one Jplace more than &their | merit?was sure to gain for them in another.”
| This was spoken ironically ; but there was, _to confess the truth, a superior knowledge of | the world, and a. consciousness of external ;merit at least, about the man, which rendered | his interference doubly disagreeable. As Sir | Lucius O’Trigger says, there was an air of success about Captain Cleveland which was mighty provokitig. Young, handsome, and | well assured, his air of nautical bluntness sat naturally and easily upon him, and was per- haps particulzrly well fitted to the simple
/manners of the remote country in which he |
found himself ; and where, even in ‘the best families, a greater degree of refinement might have rendered his conversation rather less acceptable. He was contented, in the present instance, to smile good-humoredly at the obvious discontent of Mordaunt Mertoun, and replied, ‘‘ You are angry with me, my good triend, but you cannot make me angry with you. The fair hands of all the pretty women I ever saw in my life would never have fished me out of the Roost of Sumburgh. So, pray, do not quarrel with me; for here is Mr. Hal- cro witness that I have struck both jack and topsail, and should you fire a broadside into |me, cannot return a single shot.”
‘““Ay, ay,” said Hulero, ‘you mast be friends with Captain Cleveland, Mordaunt. Never quarrel with your friend, because a woman is whimsical. Why, man, if they kept one humor, how the devil could we make so many songs on them as wedo? Even old Dryden himself, glorious old John, could have 'said litle about a girl that was always of one | mind as well write? verses upon ‘a mill ipond. It is your tides and your roosts, and |Our currents and eddies, that come ‘and go, jand ebb and flow, (by Heaven! I run into irhyme when I so much as think upon them,) ‘that smile one day, rage the next, flatter and | devour, delight and ruin us, and so forth
~it is these that give the real soul of poetry. Did you never hear my Adicu to the fans of Northmaven-——that was poor Bet Stimbister, whom I call Mary for the sound’s sake, as I jcall myself Hacon after my great ancestor Hacon Goldermund, or Haco with the golden mouth, who came to the island with Harold Harfager, and was his chief Scald? Well— but where was 1?—Oh, ay—poor Bet Stimbis- ter, she (and partly some debt) was the cause of my leaving the isles of Hialtland (better so called than Shetland, or Zetiand even), and taking tothe broad world. I. have hada tramp of it since that time.—I have. battled my way through the world, Captain, as a man of mold may, that hasa light head, a light purse, andaheart as light asthem both— fought my way and paid my way—that is, either with money or wit—have seen kings changed and deposed, as you would turn a tenant out of a scathold—knew all the wits of the age, and especially the glorious John Dry- den—what man inthe islands can say as much, barring lying?—I hada pinch out of his own snuff-box—-I will tell you how I came by such promotion.”
** But the song, Mr. Halcro,” said Captain Cleveland.
** The song?” answered Halcro, seizing the Captain by the button—for he was too much accustomed to have his audience escape from him during recitation, not to put in practice all the usual means of prevention,—‘*The song ? Why I gave a copy of it, with fifteen others, to the immortal John. Yeu shall hear it— you shall hear them all, if you will but stand stillamoment; and you too, my dear boy, Mordaunt Mertoun, I have séarce heard a word from your mouth these six months, and now you are running away from me.”
So saying, he secured him with his other hand,
‘** Nay, now he has got us both in tow,” said the seaman, ‘‘ there is nothing for it but hearing him out, though he spins as tough a yarn as ever an old man-of-war'’s-man twisted on the watch at midnight.”
‘* Nay, now, be silent, be silent, and let one of us speak at once,” said the poet, impera- tively; while Cleveland and Mordaunt, look- ing at each other with a ludicrous expression of resignation to their fate, waited in submis- sion for the well-known and inevitable tale. **] will tell you all about it,” continued Hal- ero. ‘I was knocked about the werld like other young fellows, doing this, that and tiother for a livelihood; for, thack God, ] could turn my hand to anything—Iut loving still the Muses as much as if the angratetul jades had found me, like so many blockhéads, inmy own coach-and six. However, I held out till my cousin, old Lawrence Linkletter, died, and left me the bit of an island yonder; although, by the way, Cultmalindie was as near to him as I was; but Lawrence loved wit, though he had little of hisown. Well, he left me the wee bit island—as b.-rren as Painassus itself. What then?—I have a penny to spend, a peuny to keep my purse, a ‘penny to give to the poor—ay, and a bed and a bottle for a friend, as you shall know, boys, if you will go back with me when this merri- ment is over. But where was I in my story?”
‘* Near port, I hope,” answered Cleveland ; but Halcro was too determined a narrator to be interrupted by the broadest hint.g
“Oh, ay,” he resumed, with the self-satis- fied air of one who has recovered the thread of a story, ‘‘ I was in my old lodgings in Rus- sel Street, with old Timothy Thimblethwaite, the Master Fashioner, then the best known man about town. He made for all the wits and for all the dull boobies of fortune bosides, and made the one pay for the other. He never denied a wit credit save in jest, or for the sake of getting a repartee; and he was in cor- respondence with all that was worth knowing about town. He had letters from Crowne, and Tate, and Prior, and Tom Brown, and all the famous fellows of the time, with such pel lets of wits, that there was no reading them without laughing ready to die, and all ending with craving a farther term for payment.”
‘ST should have thitught the taildr would

have found that jest rather serious,” said Mordaant,
** Not a bit—not a bit,” replied the eulo- gist, ‘‘ Tim Thimblethwaite (he was a Cumber- land man by birth) had the soul of a prince- jay, and died with the fortune of one; for woe
betide the custard-gorged alderman that came
Preeod Tim’s goose after he had got one of | those letters—egad, he was sure to pay the kain! Why, Thimblethwaite was thought to | be the original of little Tom Bibber, in glori- ous John’s comedy of the Wild Gallant ; and I know that he has trusted, ay, and lent John money to boot out of his own pocket, at a time when all his fine court friends blew cold l enough. He trusted me, too, and I have been jtwo months on the score ata time for my upper room. To be sure, I was obliging in his way—not that I exactly could shape or sew, hor would that have been decorous for a gentleman of good decent; but I—eh, eh—I drew bills--summed up the books——”
‘* Carried home the clothes of the wits and aldermen, and got lodging for your labor,” in- terrupted Cleveland.
**No, no—damn it, no,” replied Halero ; “‘no such thing—you put me out of my story —where was 1?”
(To be continued. ) American Brutality. THE WAY THEY TREAT CAPTURED CANADIAN FISHERMEN IN ALASKA,
{
One of the American sealers which was seized in Behring sea has returned to San | Francisco. The captain gives a thrilling .accout of the brutality of the Ameriean ‘authorities at Sitka. Captain Brown says no more bonds are to be accepted by the Sitka court, but that al! the vessels will remain in Sitka unti! the final adjust- ment of the cases. ‘i'd been there until now,” he said, ‘*‘ if 1 had not from the first raised my voice in protest and made my- self heard. Utold them to put me in jail or else let me go on bonds. We had a one- sided trial. We simply went into court and all of use were found guilty, and _ then they adjourned court. It is a terrible plave to stay in. The United States mar- shal there carries things witha high hand. He ejected half a dozen Indian sailors from a Victorian schooner one night when it was raining and hailing as only it can rain and hail in that country. They did not have a thing to eat ora place to sleep. They came up around the court house, and the judge and some of the citizens took pity on them and compelled the marshal to letthem go back to the vessel over night.” The cap- tain expressed indignation over the delay in all the cases, and denounces the Alaska commercial company, which is really the prosecuting agent. He charges that for years the government revenue cutters have been acting as tow boats for the commer- cial company’s vessels, and now are over energetie in pushing the claims of the com- pany to all Behrings sea. There are now in Sitka, according to all accounts, ten of the seized vessels. The San Jose and Ellen were directed tc go to that port, but did not do so, coming direet to San Fran- cisco; the Alfred Adams, a_ British schooner, also disobeyed the order and went to Victoria, and the others have been jreleased on bonds by the Sitka authori- | ties.

In Brief, And to the Point.
Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good na- ture,
The human digestive apparatus is one of the most complicated and wonderful things in existence. It is easily put out of order.
Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad cookery, mental worry, late hours, irregular habits, and many other things which pnght not to be, have made the American pedple a nation of dyspeptics.
But Green's August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad business and making the American people so healthy | that they can enjoy their meals and be happy. | Remember: No happiness without health. | But Green’s August Flower brings health and ‘ happiness to the dyspeptic.

The Boston Globe rakes up a story that Mr. Onomacritas, who, according to his own account, ** lived about 500 years before the Christian era,” aud who certainly must have been dead some time now, was a forger. It ‘seems that he was book-keeper, acting as ‘custodian for the ** Oracles of Muszens, and being detected in the act of inserting pro- phecjes of his own in them,he was banished {from Athens.” Should any of the members of the Onomacritus family get sight of this story, it will, no doubt bea case of ** stop |my paper.”
