meat. The inhabitants are anxious to get a wharf built. The site mentioned is somewhere near Mr. Matlleson's fish- ing station. They certainly have strong claims on the Government. deprived as theyare at present of any shipping. place at whicha vessel can load, other than carrying the produce out in boats. We would advise the inhabitants 1to call a lpublic meeting and ascertain how much tthey could raise by subscription. and then ‘maks an I application to the Government.

After partaking of the hospitalitics of our friend. Mr. R. Costan. we wendcd our way home, fearing the storm of Tucs- day. We hope in a few days to visit Campbclton. the West Cape. and other places that we were not able to reach tilis time.

Although the most beautifulsccncry of this Island is. in winter exceedingly (lull. nature appearing in her mantle of' white- ness and most forbidding aspect. yet the watchful traveller need not find tllc road long. as in most places it is neither tire- some or uninteresting. especially to a stranger. There are many things to en- gage one's attention. The appearance of the country. the houses. and in some places huts ; the many strange faces ; the lots of little children near the school- houscs, standing in rows to make tllcir bow to the stranger—all afford material for observation and comment. In many places large and beautiful houses have taken the place of the log house or hnt. Many fine barns are to be seen. and ill the barn yards some very fine cattle. The schoolhouses too are more comfort- able than formerly, and the people. if left to themselves. would live on the best of terms with each other, and be well satisfied with the present system of edu- cation. lint designing politicians and :others must endeavor to kindle the spark which it has taken so many years to ex- finguish. They will find it a hard task we fear. The people even in the most remost parts of the Island. fully under- stand all about these matters.

In childhood we wandered as it were “upon a silvery‘ litrand. washed by tile crystal wave of the sea oflifo. IIoodlcssly avo roam. thoughtlesst we count the wvhite pebbles ovor, asking.r nothing of the .proud world but to leave us undisturbed in this dream of delight. Thus childhood glides along until the rosy hours begin to dado into youth.

We ,get into iifes boat as it passes by. and than the world is, Oh. so beautiful. The white robes of fancy are fluttering at the helm. and the bright star of hope is glittering in her jeweled corronct. the whispering zepbyrs plny among the snug sails murmurlng of the happy days to come. Bright shines the sun overhead as onward we move. We see naught in the beautiful depths below. but coral reefs in dazzling loveliness. our eyes are blinded to tho cold pals forms that have been wrecked there who are warningly lifting their arms upward for us to beware.

Thus we sail along and we find our. selves approaching manhood.

Suddenly we start and look around us. the bright dreams of youth are vanished and umbi- lion has lied. Our heads are silverctl with the hoary front of ago, and as we feel lifos current moving slowly through our vcius we feel we are nearing the port of eternity. We can only me one star glimmering through the grey mists of evening—the star of faith; and by its rays we can see the pearly gates and golden streets on the other shore. We seem to hear tbs celes- tial music from the golden harps of loved ones gone before. and we calmly fold our weary hands. and await the summons of tho ale boatmrn that silallanchur us safe on t s shore ot IIsavsn.-—Coss.
