THE PIRATE.

| By Sir Walter Scott. i

CHAPTER XVI. (Continued. )

‘I believe it,” said Brenda, giving him her hand; ‘I believe it, and my bosom is lizhter, now I have renewe | my confidence in so old a friend. How you can aid us, I know not; but it was by the advice, I may say by the com. mands, of Norna, that I[ have ventured to make this communication; and I -almost won- der,” she added, as she looked around her, ‘that I have had courage to carry me through it. At present you know all that I can tell you of the risk in which my sister stands. Look after this Cleveland—beware how you quarrel with him, since you must so surely come off by the worst with an experienced soldier,”

“Ido not exactly understand,” said the youth, “how that should so surely be. This i know, that with the good limbs and good heart that God hath given me, ay, and with a good cause to boot—I am little afraid of any quarrel Cleveland can fix upon me.”

‘Then, if not for your own sake, for Mina’s sake,” said Brenda—‘‘for my father’s—for mine—for all our sakes, avoid any strife with him, but be contented to watch him, and, if possible, to discover who he is, and what are his intentions towords us. He has talked of going to Orkney to inquire after the consort with whom he sailed; but day after day, and week after week passes, and he goes not; and while he keeps my father company over the bottle, and tells Minna romantic stories of foreign people, and distant wars, in wiid and unknown regions, the time glides on, and the stranger, of whom we know nothing except that he is one, becomes gradually closer and more inseparably intimate in our society.-- And now, farewell. Norna hopes to make your peace with my father, and entreats you not to leave Burgh-Westra to-morrow, how- ever cold he and my sister may appear towards you. Itoo,” she said, stretching her hand towards him, ‘‘must wear a tace of cold friendship, as towards an unwelcome visitor, but at heart we are still Brenda and Mor- daunt. And now separate quickly, for we must not be seen together.”

She stretched her hand to him, but with- drew it in some slight confusion, laughing an‘ blushiag, when, by a natural impulse, he was

about to press it tohis lips. He endeavored for a moment to detain her, for the interview had tor him a degree of fascination, whieh, as often as he had before been alone with Brend\ he had never experienced. But she extvricat- ed herself from him, and again signing aa adieu, and pointing out to him a path different from that which she was herself about to take, trip towards the house, and was soon hidden from his view by the acclivity.

Mordaunt stood gazing after her in a state of mind, to which, as yet, he had been a stranger. The dubious neutral ground between love and friendship may be long and safely trodden, until he who stands upon it is suddenly called upon to recognize the authority of the one or the other power ; and then it most frequently happens, that the party who for years supposed himself only to be a friend, finds himself at once transformed into a lover. That such a change in Mordaunt’s feelings should take place from this date, although he himself was unable exactly to distinguish its nature, was to be expected, He found himself at once received, with the most unsuspicious frankness, into the coniidence of a beautiful and fascinating young woman, by whom he had, so short a time beiore,iimagined himself despised and disliked; and, if anything could make a change, in itself so surprising and so pleasing, yet more intoxicating, it was the guileless and open: hearted simplicity of Brenda, that cast an enchantment over every thing which she did or said, The scene, too, might have had _ its effect, though there was little occasion for its aid. But a fair face looks yet fairer unde: the light of the moon, and a sweet voice sounds yet sweeter among the whispering sounds of a summer night. Mordaunt, there- fore, who had by this time returned to the house, was disposed to listen with unusual! patience and complacency to the enthusiastic declamation pronounced upon moonlight by Claud Halcro, whose ecstasies had been awakened on the subject by a short turn iz the open air, undertaken to qualify the vapors of the good liquor, which he had not spared during the festival.

“The sun, my boy,” he said, ‘is every wretched laborer’s day lantern—it comes glaring yonder; out of the east, to summon up a whale world to labor and to misery ; where: as the merry moon lights all of us to mirth and to love.”

** And to madness, or she is much belied,” said Mordaunt, by way of saying something.

‘* Let it be so,” answered Halcro, “so she does not turn us melancholy-mad. My dear young friend, the folks of this painstaking world are far too anxious about possessing” all their wits, or having them, as they say, about them. Atleast I know I have been called half-witted, and I am sure I have gone through the world as well as if I had double the quan- tity. But stop--where wasI? Oh, touching and concerning the moon—why, man, she is the very soul of love and poetry. I question if there was ever a true lover in existence who had not got atleast as far as ‘O thou,’ in a sonnet in her praise.”

‘*The moon,” said the factor, who was now beginning to speak very thick, “‘ripens corn, at least the old folk said so and she fills nuts also, whilk is of less matter—sparge nuces. pueri.”

‘* A fine, a fine,” said the Udaller, who was now in his altitudes; ‘“‘the factor speaks Greek—by the house of my holy namesake, Saint Magnus, he shall drink off the yaw] full of punch, unless he gives us asong on the spot !”

‘Too much water drowned the miller,” answered Triptolemus. ‘My brain has more need of draining than that of being drenched with more Jiquor.”

to the tune of ‘‘ Hey, Dobbin, away with the wagon.” The rueful aspect of the singer, and the desperately discordant tones of his voice. formed so delightful a contrast with the jol- lity of the words and tune that honest Trip tolemus afforded the same sort of amusement which a reveller might give by appearing on a festival-day in the holyday coat of his grand- father. The jest concluded the evening, for even the mighty and strong-headed Magnus jhimself had confessed the influence of the sleepy god. The guests went off as they best might, each to his separate crib and resting place, and in a short time the mansion, which was of late so noisy, was hushed into perfect silence. (To be continued.)

The Century for November.

With the current number, The Century Magazine begins its eighteenth year and thirty-fifth volume. As usual the Novem- ber number is especially notable.

Great value and, at this time, with popu- lar interest attaches to Mr. Keman’s paper on the ‘* The Last Appeal of the Russian Liberals,” the text of which, for the first time in English, is included in his article, —in fact.the appeal has been hitherto nct really been published at all. Considering the wide and growing popular interest in Russian life, literature, and politics, Mr. Kennan’s series—the result of a special in- vestigation of Russian politics, as seen both in Russia and Siberia—is likely to create a genuine *‘sensation.” Mr. Kenfian says : ‘**It has been my fortune in the course of the last two years to make the intimate personal acquaintance of more than five hundred members of this Russian protest- ing party, including not fewer than three hundred of the so-called Nihilists living in exile at the convict mines and in the penal settlements of Siveria.” Mr. Kennan ad- dresses himself first to the discussion of the popular misconception concerning Russian politics, maintaining first of all that there is no such body as ‘“‘the Nihilists” m the proper sense of the word, and giving a clear presentation of the popular movement for reform.

The frontispiece this month is a portrait of Washington by Wright of Philadelphia, made in 1784, and now for the first time engraved, Of this portrait it is stated that Washington wrote to Mrs Powell, for whom it was painted, that ‘‘it was the best for which he had then sat, while Tuckerman said that ‘** perhaps no portrait of Washing- ton bears such convincing marks of genuine individuality without a particle of artistic flattery.” Silhouettes of Washington, John Washington and Benjamin Franklin, made by themselves and not before printed, also appear in a paper on ‘* The Home and Haunts of Washington,” by Mrs. Constance Cary Harrison, which reproduces with much picturesque illustration the life and scenes of Mount Vernon and Alexandria in Wash- ington’s time. A short paper by Mrs, Sophie Bledsoe Herrick, on ‘* Mount Ver-

the Chief American shrine.

The fiction of the present number is es- pecially uotable, including the beginning of two serial stories: ** The Graysons,” a tale of Illinois life in the first half of the cen- tury, by Edward Eggleston, and a novel- ette of Acadian life by Geo. W. Cable, en- titled ‘‘ Au Large,” the scene of which is the neighborhood of *‘Grande Puinte,” the characters being substantially the same as in the novelette of that name. Mr. Eggles- ton’s daughter, Miss Allegra Eggleston, fur- nishes an illustration for ‘*‘ The Grayaon’s,” aud Mr. Kemble one of his sympathetic studies‘ a “Cajun type, for Mr. Cable's story. ‘*A Little Dinner” is a short story of ** society’ by Mr. Wm. H. Bishop.

Professor John T. Stoddard of Smith Coliege contributes a second paper on ** College Composites,,’ in which he shows the results of his experiments in the com- bination of photographs, the examples being drawn from the classes ot 87 at Amherst, Bowdoin, and Wil- lams Colleges, Cornell, Harvard and John Hopkins Universities, and the) Sheffield Scientific School. A final co-} composite is given, made up of all these. classes, consisting in all of four hundred and forty-nine photographs, —which is pro- ! ably as near as one can get to the type of the average American graduate. Professor Stoddard demonstrates by example that the total result is not substautially influenced , by the order in which the component nega- tives are exposed. Composites are also given of the classes of $7 of the Harvard Annex, of Mount Holyoke Seminary,Smith | College, Wellesley College, Wells College, | Vassar College, together with a co-com- | posite of all, including a group of two! hundred and eighty-seveh, which may be: considered the type of the American college | girl. There is also a composite from nega-, tives of fifteen nurses at the McLean} Asylum Training School, Somerville, Massa- | chusetts, and another of thirty-eight of the Harvard Faculty.

The conclusion of the Battle Series is em- | phasized in this number by an admirable | presentation in text and pictures of the break-up of Lee’s army and the surrender, at Appomattox. The article is by General Horace Porter, and is entitled, **Grant’s Last Campaign.” ‘cription, from notes made at the time, of the historic scene at the McLean House, Appomattox. Among the illustrations are a portrait of Sheriden in the uniform which he wore on the ride to Winchester ; also a curious portrait of General Grant, giving both profiles and showing him with no beard except side whiskers, together with war-time sketches from life by Winslow Homer (including a funny one of Lincoln,

‘Sing, then,” said the despotic landlord, ‘‘for no one shall speak any other language | here, save honest ta. jolly Dutch, or; Danske, or broad Scots, at the least of it. So, } Eric Scambester, produce the yawl and fill it | to the brim, as a charge for demurrage.”

Grant and Tad Lincoln) and by William L. Sheppard and A. R. Waud, with other pic- tures from war-time photographs.

With the November aumber, the Lincoln History reaches a most interesting part of the great President’s career, the period between his election and inauguration, and one upon which, by their personal relations to him, Messrs. Nicolay ard Hay are able to throw much new light. This Zinstalment contains large quotations from unpublished MS. letters to and from Lincoln. The
