Rube’s indignation against the betrayer

having reached its climax, brought his| speech to a termination.

I had not waited for its finale. The object which he held between his Gagers | had more interest for me than either the | history of his own early days, or the) story of the betrayer. It was a paper—

a note—xi ‘tually folded. and addressed, « Wartield !’ He had found it upon the! grass, close to where the tent wey stood, |

and beld in the crotch of a split stick, | the other end of which was stuck into! the grot und.

No wonder the trapper bad remerked | the ink. There was no milotoking | the character ef that lurid red. The} writing was in blood !

Hastily unfolding the paper, Iread: |

* Henri! I am still safe, but in dread | of a sad fate—the fate of the poor white | es ae ive, among these hideous men. Last)

upon :

night I fear ed it, but the Virgin shielded | me. It has not come. Oh! 7 shall not | submit. I shall die by my own hand 1]

been otherwise! Of the two, he of! white blood is the viler savage—bad— | brutal—a very demon. Both took part! in the capture of the steed—therefore |

both claim me as their ‘property.’ The |

claim is not yet adjusted, hence I have | been spared ; but, alas! I fear my hour; isnigh. A council is to be held that

which of these monsters I | to either, it is a} doom

of my heart, Ah me! my heart is} bleeding now! They come to drag me awsy. Farewell! tarewell!’ |

Such were the contents of the page—| the fly ieaf of atorn missal. Upon the; other side was a vignette—a picture of | Dolores, the weeping saint of Mexico! | liad it been chosen, the problem could | scarce have been more appropriate.

I thrust the red writing into my bosor ED |

and without waiting to exchange a word! with my companions, pressed forward | upon the trail.

CHAPTER LXXXI MORE WRITING IN RED.

The mem followed as before. : needed | no trackers to show the way. The pe ath | was plaio asa driver ’s road—a thousand | horses had made their mark upon the! ground.

We rode at a regular pace—not! rapidly. [ was in no hurry to come up with the savages. I desired net to get sight of them before nightfall. | I: would be better not—lest they might | -~————— also get sight of us.

‘The plan I proposed to myself for the! rescue of my betrothed cou ld not be ac-!f complished in the day. Darkness alone! could avail me in carrying it out, and: for nightfall must I wait.

We could easily have overtaken the savages before night. They were but | two short hours in advance, and would

be certain, as is their custom on the}

war-trail, to make a noon halt of several hours’ duration. Even Indian horses |

require to be rested.

We calculated the rate at which they | were travelling—how many miles to the} hour; the prairie men could tell to a! furlong both the gait and the distance. | ‘The tracks of the poor captives were stili

seen sloug the trail. This showed that) the party could not have been going!

faster than a walk. |

The prairie-men alleged there were’ many horses without riders—led driv en— im: Any mules too—the product of the foray. Why were the poor captives | not permitted to ride them?

Was it sheer cruelty, or bratal indiffer- ence on tle part of their captors? Did | the inhumac monster gloat over the suf- | ferings of these unfortunates, and deny them even the alleviation of physical! pain? The affirmative answer to all: tiiase que soa Ss was pro bably the irre oe ~sinee iudeed—is the behavior of these sav ages

To the Electors of the Second | District of King’s County. GENTLEMEN, —The first act of the

present Government on assuming the adminstration of affairs was to appeal to the Electorate of the Province for an in- dorsation of the personnel and policy of the Ministry. A programme was then for- mulated, which received the cordial ap- proval of the people, and to which the Government have faithfully adhered.

The usual number of legislative sessions constituting a General Assembly, having terminated, the Government take the earliest opportunity of again consulting the constituencies, and of soliciti®g at the polls a renewal of ‘publi ic confidence.

On assuming office, the ministry found that the recklessness and extravag..nce of their immediate predecessors had resulted in imposing upon the Province a large amount of indebtedness. By amalgamat- ing some of the Departments, reducing the salaries of officials, diminishing the cost of legisiation ard of administration, as well as by improved management in every branch of the public service, the Gov- ernment have been enabled to remove the legacy of debt bequeathed to them by their opponen‘s, and there is now a con- siderable surplus to the credit of the Pro- vince. In view of this siate of things, and knowing that they shall have sufficient revenue, for some time to come, to meet the public requirements znd amply provide for every interest, the Adnintstration, in pursuance of their policy of lightening the burdens of the people, have felt justified in repealing the Assessment Act.

The Government have, by every means in their power, fostered agriculture and etock- raising, as the leading industries cf the Province, and they intend to continue increased encouragement in the same direction.

It is much to be regretted that the measures framed by the Ministry for the abolition of the Legislative Council, failed to meet the approval of a majority cf that body. The Governmen: have done every- thing they could accomplish to give effect to the wishes of the people as expressed at the last General Election ; and it is their in. tention to submit to the Legislaturenext Ses- sion measures providing for the constitution of one legislative body, and otherwise calculated to reduce the cost of legislation.

‘The Ministry are now engaged in endeay- oring to secure for this Province a portion of the Fishery Award, with other compen- sation respecting the use of our fisheries by United States’ citizens, and the business shall be diligently prosecuted to its ter- mination.

The attention of the Dominion Govern- ment has been called to the failure of Canada to carry out the Terms of Confed- eration with this Province, by providing eflicient steam communication, winter and summer, between the Island and the main land. The question is now under the consideration ef the Privy Council, and it will be the duty of the Provincial Admin- istration to adopt such measures as sha! secure to Prince Edward Island a complete aud ealisfactory fulfilment of the Terms of Ucion.

On the subjects to which I have alluced, as welj as on all other public questions, the policy which the Government submitted to the people at the last general election, remains unchanged, and shall be pursued.

During the term of office of the present Ministry, the blessings of contentment, happiness and peace have prevailed through- out the Province, and it is the desire and determination of the Government to con- tribute towards a continuance of this pleas- ing state of things, by the practice of economy and retrenchment in every de partment, and by an honest and faithfu! administration of public affairs.

I have the honor to be, Your obedient servant, W. W. SULLIVAN.

To the Electors of the City of Charlottetown, Common and Royalty,

ENTLEMEN,—I have been requested by a number of the Electors of this District to offer myself as a candidate for your suf- frages at the coming Election for the Local Legislature in opposition to nominees of the present Government, and have accepted the nomination.

The most important question at present affecting your interests, and the interests of the whole Island, is that of the proper jrose- cution of our undoubtedly just claim toa share of the Fishery Award, In my opinion the Government have vot taken adiquate measures to press our demand, If elected I shall use every constituiiona] means to ob- tain a proper recognition of our rights on this question.

With regard to the administration of the finances of this Province, my views are that the strictest economy should be practised in every department, but at the same time due regard should be had to the efficiency ofall branches of the public services.

Another question which must soon be settled is that of the reduction of the now excessive cost of legislation, and, if elected by you, my best efforts will be directed to- wards effvcting such a reform as will best check the lavish expenditure in this respect, Owing to the suddennes with which this Election has been forced upon the country, it will be impossible for me to make a thorough persona] canvass of the City and Royalty, and I therefore take this means 0° asking you for your votes
