CHAPTER III. ( Continued. )

| The disposition or these lovely sisters were not less ditferent from their complexions. In the kindly affections, neither could be said to excel each other. But the cheerfulness of Brenda mixed itself with the everyday busi- ness of life, and seemed inexhaustible in its profusion, The less buoyant spirit of her sister appeared to bring to society a contented | wish to be interested and pleased with what was going forward, but was rather placidly carried along with the stream of mirth and pleasure, than disposed to aid its progress by ‘any efforts of her own. She endured mirth, rather than enjoyed it; and the pleasures in which she most delighted, were those of a graver and more solitary cast. The know- ledge which is derived from books was be

yond her reach. Zetland afforded few oppor- tunities, in those days, ot studying the les-

j i

sous, bequeathed ‘‘ By dead men to their kind ;” and Magnus Troil, such as we have

described him, was not a person within whose

; mansion the means of such knowledge were to |be acquired. But the book of nature was be- {fore Minna, that noblest of volumes, which /we are ever called to wonder and to admire, ‘even when we cannot understand.

The plants of those wild regions, the sheils on the shores, and the long list of feathered clans which haunt their cliffs and eyries, were as well known to Minna Troil as to the most experienced followers. Her powers of observation were wonderful, and little interrupted by other tones of feeling. ‘The information which she acquired by habits of patient attention, was indelibly riveted in a naturally powerful memory. She hd also |a high feeling for the solitary and melancholy ;grandeur of the scenes in which she was placed. The ocean in all its varied forms of isublimity and terror—the tremendous cliffs | that resound to the ceaseless roar of the bil- lows, aud the clang of the sea-fowl, had for Minna a charm in almost every state in which the changing seasons exhibited them. With the enthusiastic feelings proper to the roman- jtic race from which her mother descended, the love of natural objects was to her a pas-

sion capable not only of occupying, but at | times of agitating, her mind. Scenes upon i which her sister looked with a sense of tran- ‘sient awe or emotion, which vanished on her |return from witnessing them, continued long | to fill Minna’s imagination, not only in soli- 'tude, and in the silence of the night, but, in the hours of society. So that sometimes

when she sat like a beautiful statue, a present member of the domestic circle jher thoughts were far absent wan- dering on the wild sea shore,

;and among the yet wilder mountains of her ‘native isles. And yet, when recalled to con- ‘versation, and mingling in it with interest, there were few to whom her friends were more indebted for enhancing its enjoyments; and although something in her manners claimed deference (notwithstanding her early youth) as well as affection, even her gay, lovely, and amiable sister was not more generally beloved than the more retired and pensive Minna.

Indeed, the two lovely sisters were not only the delight of their friends, but the pride of those islands, where the inhabitants of a cer-

VIN NIGOM BE, ‘tain rank were blended, by the remoteness of

their situation and the general hospitality of their habits, into one friendly community. A / wandering poet and parcel-musician, who, \after going through various fortunes, had _re- turned to end his days as he could in his native islands, had celebrated the daughters of Magnus in a poem, which he entitled Night and Day; and, in his description of Minna, might almost be thought to have anticipated, though only in a rude outline, the exquisite lines of Lord Byron,—

“She walks in beauty, like the night Of cloudless climes and starry skies ; And ali that’s best of dark and bright Meet in her @-pect and her eyes ; Thus meilow’d to that tender light Which heaven to gaudy day denies.” The father loved the maidens both so well, that it might be difficult to say which he loved best, saving that, perchance, he liked his graver damsel better in the walk without doors, and his merry maiden better by the fireside; that he more desired the society of Minna when he was sad, and thatZof Brenda when he was mirthful; and, what was nearly the same thing, preferred Minna before noon,

land Brenda after the glass hai circulated in

the evening.

Sut it was still more extraordinary, that the affections of Mordaunt Mertoun seemed to hover with the same impartiality as those of their father betwixt the two lovely sisters. From his boyhood, as we have noticed, he had been a frequent inmate of the residence of Magnus at Burgh-Westra, although it lay nearly twenty miles distant from Jarlshof. ‘The impassible character of the country betwixt these places, extending over hills covered with loose and quaking bog, and frequently intersected by the creeks or arms of the sea, which indent the Island on either side, as well as by fresh water streams and lakes, rendered the journey ditlicult, and even dangerous, in the dark season; yet, as s00n as the state of his father’s mined warned him to absent himself, Mordaunt, at every risk, and under every difficulty, was pretty sure to be found the next day at Burgh-Westra, having achieved his jou-ney in less time than would have been employed perbaps by the most act- ive native.

He was of course set down as a wooer of one of the daughters of Magnus, by the public of Zetland; and when the old Udaller’s great partiality to the youth was considered, nobody doubted that he might aspire to the hand of either of those distinguished beauties, with as large a share of islets, rocky moorland, and shore-fishings, as might be the fitting portion

-\of a favored child, and with the presumptive

prospect of possessing half the domains of the ancient house of Troil, when! their fpresent owner should be no moe. This seemed all a reasonable speculation, and, in theory at least, better constructed than many that are current through the world as unquestionable facts. But, alas! all that sharpness of observation which could be applied to the conduct of the parties, failed to determine the main point, to which of the young persons, namely, the attentions of Mordaunt were peculiarly devoted. He seemed, in general, to treat them as an affec- tionate and attached brother might have treat- ed two sisters, so equally dear to him that a

tion. Or if at any time, which often happened, the one maiden appeared the more especial object of his attention, it seems only to be because circumstances called her peculiar tal- ents and disposition into more particular and immediate exercise.

(To be continued.)

THE MARKETS. BOSTON PRICES. Boston, Sept. 12.

Ecos—Possibly eggs are held higher than the situation actually warrants, but, at the same time, the receipts of fresh are very light, and that gives the best refigerator stock a good chance. Island stock sells at 18} to 19 cents.

Porators Potatoes are very firm. There is a good deal of uncertainty concerning the crop, but it is pretty safe to conclude that it has been and is being badly damaged by rot- ting, and also that the crop is very poorly gr wn, In barrels, extra Jerseys, Rhode IJs- land and natives are bringing $2.50, with medium at $2 25. Maine, Nova ‘Scotia and New Brunswick extras are selling at $2.25.

Fisi—The fish trade shows increased acti- vity in all departments, and liberal shipments are nuw being made to all sections. Orciers continue to be for smali quantities, but they are coming in numerously from the south and west, and in the aggregate inake a large’ busi- ness. Mackerel are moving off quite freely, notwithstanding the high prices, and the lower grades continue very scarce. Owing to the increased receipts f.0m Provinces, a little easier feeling has been developed, particularly on 1's and 2’s, but it has not led to any ma- terial decline in quotations, and if the shore catch does not soon increase, no lower rates can be expected. Medium No. 3 are firm at $13, and dealers are not able to fill half their orders at that. Large No. 3 are offering more freely at $13.60 to $14 per barrel. Medium No. 2 can be obtained at $14.50 to $15, and large No. 2 at $15.50 to $16.50. The two lat- ter quotations are 50 cents per barrel lower than last week. (Giood Bay No. 1 rule at $17.50 to $18, and shore No. 1 at $22 to $23. Extra shore run up to $30, bloaters to $35, and mess tc $40 per barrel. These are deal- ers’ prices for wholesale lots. Cargo sales of bay were made in Portland at $11, $14 and $17 per barrel, including Nos. 3, 2 and I.

Most of the Nova _ Scotia mackerel received this week sold at $12 to $12.50, and the Prince Edward

Island at $14.50 to $15 per barrel. Last sales of store were at $19 per barrel, sea packed, and $10, $14 to $14.50, $18 and $27 to $28, packed.

MONTREAL PRICES.

MonTrea., Sept. 12.

For fine August cheese 12} is obtainable. Holders are asking 12}c, and there is very little otfering at any figure. FLovk—There is an active demand for good strong, and prices are rather better than last

Do Steel Rails Attract Water Spouts ?

A SINGULAR SCIENTIFIC THEORY. Scientific men in Mexico are beginning to study the meteorological phenomena which are believed to be due to the building of rail- ways in the country. The recent serious dam- age done by washouts on the northern section of the Central Railway was due to water- spouts bursting on the track, and it is a curi- ous fact that the spouts seem to be attracted by the iron track and telephone wires. Resi- dents in the interior say the electrical curretn runs along the track, which makes a conve- nient avenue for storms, and recently in building the Quadalajarna branch of the Cen- tral it has been noticed by the engineers that as fast as the construction advances rain ftol- lows, and they hold that this is due to the large quantity of steel rails which are carried forward as fast as the construction permits. The most noticeable fact is that the country is dry in advance of the construction trains, and also behind them for many miles the rains beat down, as is described, in bucketsful just where the steel rails are, but only in restrict- ed circles a few miles in diameter.

—— A Battle with Banditti.

Great excitement prevails at Austin, Texas, over the report from Manchaca that. officers have overhauled and attacked a band of train robbers supposed to be the same gang that perpetrated the McNeil & Flatoma train rob- beries several months ago. The local officers at Manchaca attempted this afternoon to arrest the robbers when the latter opened fire on them, wounding one officer. Two outlaws have thus far been fatally wounded. Fight, ing still continues, and help has heen asked from Austin, and Sheriff Kyle anda posse have left for the scene of the conflict.
