But they only added to their 1: umbers of their enemies ; for Cleve- | land, preceiving Minna in the arms of Der-' rick, snatched her from the ruffin with one

hand, and with the other shot him dead on

the spot. Two or three more of the pirates fell or were taken, the rest fled to their boat, pushed off, then turned their broadside to the shore, and fired repeatedly on the Orcadian party, which they returned, with little injury | on either side. Meanwhile Mordaunt, having first seen that the sisters were at liberty and in full flight toward the house, advanced on | Cleveland with his cutlass drawn. The pirate presented a pistol, and calling out at the same time,—‘* Mordaunt, I never missed my | aim,” he fired into the air, and threw it into,

the lake ; then drew his cutlass, brandished it equivalent to saying, on a fair inte

still used precaution, as, advancing on Cleve- land, he asked if he surrendered. **I surrender to no man,” said the Pirate captain; ‘‘but you may see I have thrown away my weapons.” He was immediately seized by some of the Orcadians without his offering any resistance ; but the instant interference of Mordauut pre- vented his being roughly treated, or bound. The victors conducted him to a well-secured upper apartment in the House of Stennis, and paced a sentinel at the door. Bunce and letcher, both ot whom had been stretched on the field during the skirmish, were lodged in the same chamber ; and two prisoners, who appeared: of lower rank, were confined ina vault belonging to the mansion. Without pretending to describe the joy of Magnys Troil, who, when awakened by the noise and firing, found his daughter safe, and his enemy a prisoner, we shall only say it was so great, that he torgot, for the time at least, to inquire what circumstances were those which had placed them in danger; and that he hugged Mordaunt to his breast a thousand times, as their preserver ; and swore as often by the bones of his sainted namesake, that if he had a thousand daughters. so tight a lad, and so true a friend, should have the choice of them, let Lady Glowrowrum say what she would. A very different scene was passing in the prison-chamber of thé unfortunate ,Cleveland and his associates. The Captain sat by the window, his eyes bent on the prospect of the sea which it presented, and was seemingly so intent on it, as to be insensible of the presence of the others. Jack Bunce stood, meditating some ends of verse, in order to make his ad- vances towards a reconciliation with Cleve- land ; for he began to be sensible from the consequences, that the part he had played to- wards the Captain, however well irtended, was neither lucky in its issue, nor likely tc be well taken. His admirer and adherent Fletcher lay half asleep as it seemed, ora truckle bed, in the room, without the lest attempt to interfere in the conversation which ensued. ** Nay, but speak to me, Clement,” said tae penitent Lieutenant, ‘‘if it be but to swear at me for my stupidity,—

‘What! not an oath?—Nay, then the world goes

hard, If Clifford cannot spare his friend an oath.’” ‘*] prithee peace, and be gone!” said Cleveland ; ‘‘ I have no bosom friend left yet, and you will make me bestow its contents on you, or on inyself.” ‘““T haveit!” said Bunce, ‘‘I have it! and on he went in the vein of Jaffer— *‘Then, by the hell I merit, I'll not leave thee.

Till to thyself at least thou’rt reconciled. However thy resentment deal with me!”

‘*] pray youonce more to be silent,” said Cleveland—‘‘ Is it not enough that you have undone me with your treachery, but you must stun me with your silly buffoonery ?—I would not have believed you would have lifted a finger against me, Jack, of any man or devil in yonder unhappy ship.”

** Who, 1?” exclaimed Bunce, ‘‘I lift a finger against you—-and if I did it was in pure love, and to make you the happiest fellow that ever trod on deck, with your mistress beside you, and fifty fine fellows at your command, Here is Dick Fletcher can bear witness I did ail for the best, if he could but speak, instead of lolloping there like a Dutch degger laid up to be careened—Get up Dick and speak for me, won't you?”

‘““Why, yes, Jack Bunce,” answered Fletcher, raising himself with difficulty and speaking feebly, ‘*I will if I can—andI always knew you spoke and did for the best— but howsumdever, d’ye see, it has turned out for the worst for me this time, for 1 am bleed- ing to death, 1 think.”

** You cannot be such an ass?” said Jack Bunce, springing to his assistance, as did Cleveland, but human aid came too late—he sunk back on the bed, and, turning on his face, expired without a groan.

** | always thought him a d—d fodi,” said Bunce, as he wiped a tear from his eye, ‘‘ but never such a consummate idiot as to hop the perch so sillily. I have lost the best fullow- er’ —and he again wiped his eye.

Cleveland looked on the dead body, the rugged features of which had remained un- altered by the death-pang.—‘‘ A bull-dog,” he

ests ; and that is made stronger by a second assertion that we owe nothing to Great Britain but charity for the atrocious _blun- dering she has been guilty of in regard to our interests. There is first the statement that we have nothing but our own interests to regard because they are paramount, and secondly, there is Sa which would make us understand the ear pasion idea of our own interes over- ridden by Great Britai nd then the hon. gentleman goes on to clench all by saying that there never was a time jn her own history when Canada could not have bettered her condition by linking her in- terests with the United States of America. I ask you, Mr. Speaker, and I ask you, hon. gentlemen around those boards to tell me which is the most honorable position, that occupied by my hon. friend from South Oxford (Sir Richard Cartwright) or that occupied by my hon. friend from the city of St. John, N. B. (Mr. Ellis). I can imagine a colloquy in the corriodrs between my friend from St. John and my friend from South Oxford. My friend from St. John says: Sir Knight, you tell me that our own interests should be paramount? Yes. You tell me that we owe Great Brit- ain nothing but charity, and very little of of that? Yes. You tell me that there never was any time when Canada’s inter- ests would not have been better served by linking them with the United States of America? Yes. Then, why do you not say at once : Let us link our fortunes with the United States of America, and why do you not be as brave and honest about it as [ am.

THE ONLY DIFFERENCE

between these two hon. gentlemen is—and it is to the credit of my hon. friend from St. John (Mr. Ellis)—that he believes thus and so, and has the courage to express it, even though it may be unpalatable to the gentlemen around him and to the people among whom he lives, while my hon. friend from South Oxford (Sir Richard Cart- wright) contends and works in’ the same line, but he is afraid of outside opinion and gilds it over and says: Oh, no, I am not an annexationist, I do not believe in’ annexa- tion. That isthe only difference between them, and 1 think it is in favor ot my hon. from St. John (Mr. Ellis) and I willingly give it to him. Then, we are told as a rea- son why this is the peculiar and only rem- edy, that it will give the United States a great home market in Canada. The hon. gentleman believes in the doctrine of equiv- alents. He is superlatively honest, and he would not take anything without giving something in return, and he is perforce driven by his own innate spirit of right to maintain the argument that there will be equivalents, and one of those is that the United States will get a large home market in Canada. Let us reason that out, There are five millions of people in Canada. They buy all they are able to now. They buy that from certain persons now. My hon. friend from South Oxford says to the people of the United States: Adopt this scheme, and you will get a largely extend- ed home market in Canada.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN ?

If they get that home market, the people of Canada cannot buy more than they are able to. It will be simply a displacement, and the people of the United States, the merchants ot the Unjted States, will get what our merchants and our industrial centres now get. In what will they find a home market in this country? For their coal, in Nova Scotia. li they do, lask my hon. friend whether he can finda market for American coal in Nova Seotia without displacing an equal quantity of coal brought up from the mines in Nova Scotia, and, if he displaces Nova Scotia coal by American coal, | ask him what becomes of the men who, with drill, pick and lamp, earn that

said, ‘‘ of the true British breed, and, with a better counsellor, would have been a_ better man.”

‘You may say that of some other folks, too, Captain, if you are minded to do them justice,” said Bunce. : Z '” ** 1 may, indeed, and especially of yourself, said Cleveland in reply.

‘“Why, then, say, Jack, I forgive you,” 'gaid Buuce ; ‘‘it’s but a short word and soon spoken.” , | **] forgive you from all my soul, Jack,” ‘gaid Cleveland, who had resumed his situation

at the window; ‘‘and the rather that your ‘folly is of little consequence—the morning is come and must bring ruin on us all.” ‘‘What? you are thinking of the old ;weman’s prophecy you spoke of?” said | Bunce.

(To be Continued.)

which supports their families and builds up ‘their villages by mining the coal in the ‘depths under the sea inthe Province of Nova Scotia. They will only be able to obtain a market by displacing what is now |provided by our own people, and, if they get a market in regard to manufactures, in | regard to agricultural produce, in regard to sugar, they can only do it by displacing those who are now carrying on these trades as Canadians, who are improving Canadian industries, with profits to the Canadian people. The hon, gentleman should adopt

the dictum of Attorney-General Longley, .who says that, instead of getting ten or twelve million dollars’ worth from Upper Canada, they will get it fromthe United States.
