THE PIRATE.

By Sir Walter Scoott.

CHAPTER VIL (Contin ued.)

‘‘I hope sir,” replied Mordaunt, ‘‘I have not been found deficient ?”

‘“‘Say no more on 't—say no more on 't”’ said Mertoun, abruptly, enough by each other—we must soon part— Let that be our comfort-—if our separation should require comfort.”

‘*) shall be ready to obey your wishes,” said Mordaunt, not altogether displeased at what promised him an opportunity of looking farther abroad into the world. ‘‘I presume it will be your pleasure that I commence my travels with a season at the whale fishing.”

‘*Whale-fishing !" replied Mertoun; ‘that were a mode indeed of seeing the world! but thou speakest but as thou hast learned. Enough of this for the present. Tell me where you had shelter from the storm yester- day ?”

‘At Stourburgh, the house of the new fac- tor from Scotland.”

“A pedantic, fantastic, visionary schemer,” aaid Mertoun—‘‘and whom saw you there?”

‘*His sister, sir,” replied Mordaunt, ‘‘and old Norna of the Fitful-head.”

‘‘What! the mistress of the potent spell,” ean change the wind by pulling her curch on one side, as King Erick used to do by turning his cap? The dame journeys far from home —how fares she ? favorable winds to those who are bound ?”

port-

whom certain reco}jlections freely entering into his fathers humour.

‘You think the matter too serious to be jested with. or perhaps esteem her merchan- dise too light to be cared after,” continued Merton, in the same sarcastic tone, which was the nearest approach he ever made to cheer- fulness; ‘‘but consider it more deeply. Every- thing in the universe is bought and sold, and why not wind, if the merchant can find pur- chasers? The earth is rented, from its sur- face down to its most central mines;—the fire, and the means of feeding it, are currently bought and sold;—the wretches that sweep the boisterous ocean with their ‘nets, pay ransom for the privilege of being drowned in it. What title has the air to be exempted from the universai course of traflie ? All above the earth, under the earth, and around the earth, has its price, its sellers and its purchasers. {n many countries the priests will sell a portion of heaven—in all countries men are willing to buy er exchange for health, wealth and peace of conscience, a full aliowance of hell. Wky should not Norna pursue her traffic?”

“‘Nay, I know no reason against it,” replied Mordaunt; ‘‘only I wish she would part with the commodity in smaller quantities. Yester- day she was a wholesale dealer—whcever treated with her had too good a pennyworth.” “It is even 80,’ said the father, pausing on the verge of the wild promontory which they attained, where the huge precipice sinks abruptly down on this wide and tempestuous ocean, ‘‘and the elfects are still visibie.”’

The face of that lofty cape is composed of the soft and crumbling stone called sand-flag which gradually becomes decomposed, and yields to the action of the atmosphere, and is split into large masses, that hang loose upon the verge of the precipice, and, detached from it by the fury of the tempests, often descends with great fury into the vexed abyss which lashes the foot of the rock. Numbers of these huge fragments lie strewed beneath the rocks from” which they have fallen, and amongst these the tide rages and foams with a fury peculiar to these latitudes.

At the period when Mertoun and his son looked from the verge of the precipice, the wide sea still heaved with the agitation of yesterday's storm, which had been far too violent in its effects on the ocean to subside speedily. The tide therefore poured on the headland with a fury deafening to the ear, and dizzying to the eye, threatening instant des- truction to whatever might be at the time involved in its current. The sight of Natare, in her magnificence, or in her beauty, or in her terrors, has at all times an overpowering interest, which even habit cannot greatly weaken; and both father and son satthem- selves down on the cliff to look out upon that unbounded war of waters, which rolled in their wrath to the foot of the precipice.

At once Mordaunt, whose eyes were sharper, and probably his attention more alert, than that of his father, started up and exc'aimed, ““God in Heaven ! there is a vessel in the Roost.”

Mertoun looked to the north-westward, and an object was visible amid the rolling tide. **She shews no sail,” he observed; and imme-' diately added, after looking at the object/ through his spyglass, *‘She is dismasted, and

““we have both done |

LETTERS TO THE @DITOR,

-_-—_- ~~; —

Prince Street School.

Sik,—As a citizen, and as one deeply in- terested in the welfare of the Prince Street School, | pointed out, in my letter of the 22nd ult., certain practices in the manage- ment of that School which I regarded as decidedly objectionable and even danger- ous. Since doing so I have the satisfaction of knowing that my letter was endorsed by the whole community with the exception of a few interested ones.

But why all this wrath? And why all this reticence and dodging on the part of those who have been placed in authority in

matters edneational? Simply because the practices | have pointed out are so outrage- ous that to mention them is to pronounce their condemnation. True, the timorous Secretary, at first, ventured through the \use of inverted commas in an editorial paragraph to deny my statements, charac- terizing them as ‘*mythical and baseless.” He then fiopped out of sight, without even assuring the public that if such practices |did exist they would be considered by our '** willing” Board and remedied. And | what is the next move /

| In your issue of the 27th is a letter over | the signature of **One Interested,” which _is decidedly refreshing. It is well known jthat our worthy Secretary of the School | Board made that famous pilgrimage to the Prince Street School alone, and it is more ‘than a suspicion that this wonderful epistle 18 the production of combined wisdum, and may therefore be regarded as an official utteratfce. In this light it isa marvelous one,

Well, firstly, this ‘* Interested” one (/) | begins by informing us that the pupils at- tending the other two City Schools are also jcompelied to enter by the back doors. ‘Just so. Three times one are three—that fact just makes the matter three times worse than I| have stated.

Secondly. After denying that under the Methodists the pupils were allowed to enter and retire by the front door, this innocent one (/) admits that certain departments of the school were allowed todo se! Herein we tind a very wise provision made for the safety of the pupils incase of tire or other casualty, as these pupils would naturaily seek egress by the large front doors, and thus relieve the pressure onthe small, crooked, ill-contrived back way. But this would not take place under the present ar- rangement. Besides, under the Methodist regime, this school contained but few scholars compared with its present number. **Oh, but our discipline is so wonderful !

You are not taking that into account.” No, Iam not. In ninety-nine out of every hundred such casualties all discipline 1s

cast off. The French say: ** On west pas maitres de la penre.” We are not masters of fright.

Thirdly, 1 am told that if the air in the vicinity of the back door and outhouses is impure, the Board of Health should be called in. I hope, Sir, it is never allowed to get that bad. Surely those healthful children to be’seen on Prince Street are not going to be compelled te inhale poison- ous odors until disease shows itself before we protest’ But I have good reasons for believing that at times the odor is really otfensive—particularly when the wind is from the North. Look at the situation of the closets, connected with the main build- ing by a shed, through which the children are compelled to pass and repass, and do not insult my intelligence by telling me that the air in these sheds, with four or five hundred children usiug them daily is not impure. It is to be hoped, however, that everything is being done, known to modern science, to keep them as pure as _ possible forthe purposes for which they were in- tended ; but no person, fit to be intrusted with educational matters, will presume to say that the atmosphere in all such places is not impure.

Fourthly, I trust thatno fair young dam- sel attending the Prince Street School, who has been suflicienty audacious to ** imagine there is no privilege from which she should be debarred,”’ is being shadowed on account of either my *‘ malice or conceit,’ for, as you know, Mr. Editor, and I hereby pub- licly confess that | wear neither crinoline, bustle or back hair, and do further declare that my sole object in addressing you on this important subject was, that what I re- garded as a crying evil should be pointed out and rectified.

The rest of this precious epistle is the veriest clap-trap and written in such

lies a mere hulk upon the water.” ! “And is drifting on the Sumburgh-head,” exclaimed Mordaunt, struck with horror, without the slightest means of weathering the | cape |"

**She makes no effort,” answered his father; ‘“‘she is probably deserted by her crew.”

‘“‘And in such a day as yesterday,” replied Mordaunt, ‘“‘when no open boat could live} were she manned with the best men ever handled an oar—all must have perished,”

“It is most probable,” said his father, ' with [stern Scomposure; ‘‘and one day, sooner or later, all must have per-| ished. What signifies whether the Fowler, | whom nothing escapes, caught them up at one swoop from yonder shattered deck, or whether he clutched them individually, as chance gave them to his grasp’? What signifies it?—the| deck, the battle-tield, are scarce more tatal to | us than our table and our bed; and we are | saved from the one, merely to drag outa’ heartless and wearisome existence, till we | perish at the other. Wouldthe hour would come—that her which reason would teach us to wish for, were it not that nature has im- planted the fear of it so strongly within us!) You wonder at such a retlection, because life is yet new to you, Ere you have attained my age, it will be the familiar companion of your thoughts.” ‘Surely, sir, replied Mordaunt, “such dis- taste to life is not the necessary consequence of advanced age ?”

wretchedly bad taste that I shall not notice it—especially the concluding paregraph which contains the usual lachryma! flow and is as puerile as it is contemptible, Those points which some might regard as an answer to my letter, I have noticed, but if our modern Jupiter and Venus cannot forge anything more cogent or attractive, and are unable to give the public any better reasons than those furnished us, for the continuance of the present regulations in the Prince Street School, I, for one, think they had better retire trom the contest. Yours truly, A PARENT. Sept. 28th, 1887.

Give Them a Chance!

That is to say, your lungs. Also all your breathing machinery. Very wonderful machinery it is. Not only the larger air passages, but the thousands of little tubes and cavities leading from them.

When these are clogged and choked with matter which ought not to be there, your

lungs cannot half do their work. And what they do they cannot do well. Call it cold, cough, creup, pneumonia,

catarrh, cansumption or any of the family of throat and nose and head and lung obstruc- tions, allare bad. All ought to be got rid of. There is just One sure way to get rid of them. That is to take Boschee’s German Syrup, which any druggist will sell at 75 centsa bottle. Even if everything else has failed you, you may depend upon this for certuiz.
