By Charles Reade.

CHAPTER LXIL. Ou, Miss Hertex, how can you say

that? cried Nancy, in utter dismay. ‘Ul lay my life poor Joe never did no such wickedness.’

But Helen waved her off without looking at her, and pointed at Wylie.

‘Are you blind?) Why does he cringe and cower at sight of me? I tell you he scuttled the ‘Proserpine,’ and the great augur he did it with I have seen and hand- led. Yes, sir, you destroyed a ship, and the lives of many innocent persons, whose blood now cries to Heaven against you; and if J am alive to tell the cruel tale, it is no thanks to you; for you did your best to kill me, and, what is worse, to kill Robert Penfold, this gentleman’s son; for he was on board the ship, Yon are no better than an assassin,’

| ‘Il ama man that’s down,’ said Wylie, in a low and broken vo'ce, hanging his head. ‘Don’t hit me any more. I didn’t mean to take anybody’s life: | took my chance with ithe rest, lady, as ’m a man. I have lain ‘in my bed many’s the night, crying Jike a ‘child, with thinking you were dead. And now I am glad you are alive to be revenged on me, Well, you see, it is your turn now; you have lost me my _ sweetheart, there; she'll never speak to me again, after this, Ah, the poor men gets all the blame! You don’t ask me who tempted me; and, if I was to tell you, you’d hate me worse than ever; so Vil belay. If I'm a sinner, I’m a’ sufferer. England’s too hot to hold. [ve only to go to sea, and get crewned the. quickest way.’ And with this he vented a)

deep sigh, and slouched out of the room. | |

Nancy sank into a seat, and threw her) apron over her head, and rocked and sobbed | as if her heart would break.

As for Helen Rolleston, she still stood in the middle of the room burning with ex- | citement. Then the poor old Michael came to her, . and said, almost in a whisper: ‘It is a bad business; he is her sweetheart | and she had the highest opinion of him.’ | This softened Helen in a great measure. | She turned and looked at Nancy, and said: ‘Oh , dear, what a miserable thing! But) I couldn't know that.’

After a while she drew a chair and sat down by Nancy, and said:

‘I won’t punish him, Nancy.’

Naney burst out sobbing afresh.

*You have punished him,’ said she brusquely, ‘and me, too, as never did you no harm. You have driven him out of the country, you have.’

At this piece of feminine justice, Helen’s anger revived. ‘So then,’ said she, ‘ships are to be destroyed, and ladies and gentlemen murdered and nobody is to complain, or say an angry word, if the wretch happens to be paying his addresses to you, That makes up for all the crimes inthe world. What! can an honest woman like you lose all sense of right and wrong foraman? And such aman!

‘Why, he is as well made a fellow as ever I saw,’ sobbed Nancy.

‘Oh, is he ? said Helen, ironically—her views of manly beauty were different, and black eyes a sine qua non with her—‘then it isa pity his soul isnot made to cor- respond. I hope by my next visit you will have learned to despise him as you ought. Why, if Iloved a man ever so, Td tear him oujol my heart if he committed a crime; ay, though | tore my soul out of my body to do it.’

‘Ng you wouldn't,’ said Nancy, recover- ing sOme of her natural pugnacity ; ‘ for we are all tarred with the same stick, gentle or simple.’

‘But I assure you I would,’ cried Helen; ‘and so ought you.’

‘Well, miss, you begin,’ cried Nancy, suddenly firing up through her tears. ‘If the ‘Proserpine’ wag scuttled, which I’ve your word for it, Miss, Helen, and I never knew you tell a lie, why, your sweetheart is more to blame for it than mine.’

Helen rose with dignity.

‘You are in grief,’ said she. ‘I leave you to consider whether you have done well to affront me in your own house.’ And she was moving to the door with great digrity, when Nancy ran and stopped her,

‘Oh, don’t leaye me so, Miss Helen,’ she cried; ‘don’t you go to quarrel with ine for apeaking the truth too plain and rude, as is

aside to giggle a little. But old Penfold replied loftily:

‘Who cares what a Wylie says against a great old mercantile house of London city!

‘Very well, Mr. Penfolds,’ said Nancy, with one great final sob, and dried her eyes with her apron; and she did it with such an air, they both saw she was not ging to shed another tear about the mat- ter. ‘Very well; you are both against me; then I’ll say no more. But 1 know what I know.’

‘And what do you know?’ inquired Helen.

‘Time will show,’ said Nancy, turning suddenly very dogged; ‘time will show.’

Nothing more was to be got out of her after that; and Helen, soon after, made her a civil though stiff little speech; regretted the pain she had inadvertently caused her, and went away, leaving Mr. Penfold her address.

On her return home,she entered the whole adventure in her diary. ate entry to this effect.

Showed that he had done what he could for the petilioners. Explained the dtfliculties in the way of getting a grant exclusively for the service asked for. Referred to and ‘read the Act passed last session, and showed that the Act provided for the steam service asked for by the petitioners, while it made | provision to extend the service to the other parts of King’s County if found practicable. ‘Spoke of the difficulties in the way of getting a County Court established in this place.

He was listened to with marked attention and respect.

It appeared that the meeting was per- fectly satisfied with Mr. Prowse’s explana- tion as the question of local wants was abandoned, and a general onslaught mede on the Government by J. D. Dewar, M. McFadyen, Esq., and Dr. Robertson.

J. D. Dewar tried to show the electors how the Public Works were svfering by not having the benefits of his valuable services 20 frequently offered the Government by him.

Mr. McFadyen made a general and

characteristic attack on the Government,

LETTERS TO TH. EDITER.

Rev. Guy Montgomerie Again.

My Dear S1e,—I regret te observe, by the tenor of ‘‘Pro Bono Publico’s” letter, in your issue of Friday, that he entertains doubts of my truthfulness, which appear to be coupled with a vague scepticism as to my existence. As without that gentleman's consent, to whom I stated that I lent the book, I cannot refer him for proof of what I said, particularly as I hinted that the book had not been returned, I have only

my own word to offer. I should suppose that my letters, over my own. signature, should satisfy any reasonable person of my _ exist-

ence, and in order to assure him of the veracity of my statements as to my family antecedents, 1 beg to refer him to my esteemed friend, the eminent antiquarian s errr Dhomnuil Nan

r _?

Permit me,in concluding this correspond- ence, to offer to ‘‘Pro Bono Publico” the assurance of my highest regard, and to

remain, My Dear Sir. Your mueh obliged servant, Guy De Montcomerig, M. A. Cantab. Late Curate of Anstruther- cum-Eglington, Ashes- under-Lyme, “ngland. S. Etheldreda’s Church, Riggs’ Woods, Second Sunday in Lent, 1884.

P. S.—In the course of my reading up the history of the Island since my arrival, I have observed a letter addressed by one Simon Mitchell, Micmac, to a member of the Historical Society, accompanying a book of police records; and, as I fancy the stock of presents which I received may fur- nish some quaint and curious specimens of past usefulness, I wish to say that, so soon as I have time after Lent, I shall take pleasure in forwarding them to the same gentleman for deposit in the archives of the said society.

Steam Communication at Montague.

Sir,—According to public meeting was held in the new Hall at Montague on the evening of Wednesday, the 20th ult., to con- sider our standard grievance, namely: steam communication between Montague and Georgetown. A petition was numer- ously signed Were last winter and presented to the Legislature, then in session, asking fora subsidy of seven hundred and fifty dollars for five years to enable a company to put on a steamer to ply on the above route. The prayer of the petitioners was

a plain-spoken body at the best; and in such grief myself I scarcely know what to say. But indeed, and in truth, you mustn’t go and put it abroad that the ship was scuttled; if you do, you won’t hart Joe Wylie; he'll get a ship and fly the country. Who you'll hurt will be your own husband as is te be— Wardlaws.’

‘Shall I, Mr. Penfold?’ asked Helen, disdainfully,

‘Well, madam, certainly it might create

‘Miss Rouse,’ said Mr. Penfold, ‘1 sym- pathize with your grief, and make great allowance; but I will not sit here and hear my worthy employers blackened with such terrible insinuations. The great house of Wardlaw bribe a sailor to scuttle their own ship, with Miss Rolleston and a hundred

The representatives present at the meet- ing were Hons. 8. Prowse, James Clow, Thomas Annear, and M. McFadyen, Esq. Mr. Prowse, as a member of the Govern- ment, was called upon to address the meet- ing. He said he wanted to hear what the obiect of the meeting and the grievance complained of were, and called upon sever- al persons whose names were attached to the requisition to state them.

After considerable hesitation, Mr. W. C. White made an attempt to explain the grievance, but it dwindled down to the usual Grit whine about the incompetency of the Government. He tried to shift the responsibility of calling the meeting op other shoulders, and stated if R. W. Sprague, Esq., was present, he would more fully explain the object of the meeting.

Mr. Sprague came forward, expressed his surprise that he was expected to take ‘the lead at this meeting, as he had only ‘signed the requisition at the request of other persons, but be in a few pointed and lgentlemanly remarks, explained the object of the petitioners, and also the general

Pownal Temperance Notes. Our Lodge is getting on nicely. Quite an interest is taken by all to make it a school of instruction as well as recreaticn. Excelsior Lodge was organized in September by Col. J. J. Hickman, with seventy charter members, and our membership now is over one hundred, embracing some of our best and most influential citizens, which isa good indication of the success of the Lodge.

A very successful musical and literary entertainment was given by the members of Excelsior Lodge, in Pownal Hall, on Wednesday, the 5th inst. Notwithstand- ing the state of the roads it was well attend- ed, and as an admission fee was charged the financial results were good. Our Worthy Chief, F. H. Campbell, occupied the chair, and made some very neat and appropriate opening remarks. The choir, under the

leadership of Miss Charlotte Me Eachern, who presided at the organ, gave several pieces of appropriate temperance music which were well

received. The solo by Miss Lilly Mcore was admirably rendered, and well deserved the applause it received. Messrs. George Moore and Vonclure Gay, rendered their Violin soles and organ accompaniment in good style. Miss L. Clarke, Miss R. Me- Rae, Miss S. Yates, Miss L. Brown, Alex. J. Murchison and Geo. A, Wood, furnished the literary part of the programme in good style. On the whole a good programme was rendered ; and all through good order was maintained, and bright temperance intelligence beamed from the happy faces assembled there. All our officers and members have pro- cured regalias, and great interest seems to be taken in all temperance matters at our meetings, which are well attended. Our cause is gaining ground, and all should join in shouting? Hail! lovely temperance— friend of humanity— Sent to unrivet sad slavery’s chain; The cup of our fathers to banish forever, With all the dire evils that crowd in its train. Avex. J.

A New Missionary Vessel.

The missionary vessel ‘‘Morning Star,” built in East Boston in 1870, while still in the active service of the wissionaries in the Micronesian Islands is not equel to all the demands upon her. It has been decided, therefore, to build another, a brigantine, about twice the size of the present vessel, to be supplied with steam as an auxiliary power. The Sunday School children of America have more been called upon and the subscriptions, of the rate of twenty-five cents from each one, are flow- ing in. The new vessel, it is estimated, will cost $45,000; and one dime annually from each subscriber will pay the running expenses. It is but a few weeks since the subscriptions were asked for. Already $25,000 has been received, and the American board has de- termined to begin the vessel at once. It will be called the “‘Morning Ster.”” She will be built at Bath, Me., and her mea- surement will be about 1,425 tons. She isto be in Boston ready to load in Sep- tember, 1885, and will sail for Honolulu about the first of November.
