CHAPTER VIII (Continued. )
While Mordaunt, accordingly, was engaged in writing to Magnus Troii a letter, setting forth the circumstances in which Captain Cleveland had been thrown upon their coast, the Captain, having first selected and laid aside some wearing apparel and necessaries enough to fill a knapsack, took in hand ham- mer and nails, employed himself in securing the lid of his sea-chest, by fastening it down in a workman-like manner, and then added the corroborating security of a cord, twisted and kno ted with nautical dexterity. ‘‘I leave this in your charge,” he said, * all exeept this,” showing the bag of gold, ‘‘and these,” pointing to a cutlass and pistols, which may prevent all farther risk of my’ parting com- pany with my Portagues.”
‘** You will find no occasion for weapons in this country, oo Cleveland,” replied Mordaunt; *‘a child might travel with a purse of gold from Sumburg-head to the Scaw of Unst, and no soul would injure him.” | ‘And that’s pretty bold said, young gentle- man, considering what is going oa without doors at this moment.”
“Oh,” rephied Mordaunt, a little confused, ‘‘what comes on land with the tide,they reckon their lawiul property. One.would think , they had studied under Sir Arthegal, who pro- nounces—
*For equal rizht in equal things doth stand,
Aud whatthe mighty sea hatu once possess’d, And bluckes quite irom all possessors’ hands,
; Or else by wrecks that wietches have distress’d, He may dispose, by bis resis!less mint,
Asthings at raudom left, to whom he list.’ -
‘*] shall think the better of plays and ballads as long as I live,for these very words,” said Captain Cleveland; *‘and yet I have lov- ed them well enough in my day. But this is ‘good doctrine, and more men than one may }trim their sails to such a breeze, What the ‘sea sends is ours, that’s sure enough. How- ever, in case that your good folks should think the land as well as the sea may pre- sent them with wails and strays, I will make bold to take my cutlass and pistols-—Will you {cause my chest to be secured in your own house till you hear from me, and use your in- fluence to procuce a guide to shew inc the way, and to carry my kit?”
““Wili you go by sea_or land?” said Mor.
By sea!’ exclaimed Cleveland. ‘‘ What— in one of th se cocKleshells, and a cracked cockleshell, to boot ? less | know my crew, my vessel, and my voy- age.
“They parted accordingly, Captain Cleveland
being supplied with a guide to conduct him to Burgh Westra, and his chest being care- fully removed to the mansion-house at Jarl- , Shof.
CHAPTER IX. On the subsequent morning, Mordaunt, in answer to his father’s inquiries, began to give him some account of te shipwrecked marmer
supply articles, whether whom he had rescued from the waves. But
he had not proceeded far in recapitulating the particulars which Cieveland had communi- cated, when Mr. Mertoun’s looks became dis: turbed—he arose hastily, and, after pacing twice or thrice across the room, he retired into the inner chamber to which he usually confined himself, while under the influence of his mental malady... In the evening he re- appeared, without any traces of his disorder; ut it may be easily supposed that his son
javoided recurring to the subject which had ‘affected him.
| Mordaunt Merteun was thus ieft without assistance, to form at his leisure his own ‘opinion respecting the new acquaintance 'which the sea had sent him; and, upon the | whole, he was himself surprised to tind the |regult less favorable to the stranger than he {could-well account for. There seemed to | Mordaunt to be a sort of repelling influence jabout the man. ‘True, he was a handsome man, of a frank and prepossessing manner, | but there was an assumption of superiority ‘about him which Mordaunt did not quite so ‘much like’ Although he was so keen a sports- man as to be delighted with his acqusition of the Spanish-barrelled gun, and accordingly mounted and dismoanted it with great inter- ‘est, paying the utmost attention to the most minute parts about the lock and ornaments, 'yet he was, upon the whole, inclined to have sume scruples about the mode in which he had | acquired it. “| should not have accepted it,” he | thought; ‘perhaps Captain Cleveland might give it meas a soit of payment for the trifling ‘service I did him; and yet it would have been churlish to refuse it in the way it was otfered, 1 wish he had looked more like a man whom one would have chosen to be obliged to.”
| But a successful day's shooting reconciled jhim to his gun, and he became assured, like ‘most young gportsmen in similar circam- , Stances, that all other pieces were pop-guus in .comparis n, But then, to be doomed to shoot ;gulls and seals, when there were Frenchmen ,an@ Spaniards to be come at—when there | were ships to be boarded, and steersmen to be ' marked otf, seemed to be a dull and contempt- ible destiny. His father had mentioned his ‘leaving these islands, and no other mode of occupation occurred to his inexperience, save j that of the sea, with which he had been cen- | versant from his infancy. His ambition had formerly aimed no higher than at sharing the ! fatigues and dangers of a Greenland fishing \expedition; for it was in that scene that the | Zetlanders laid most of their perilous adven.- jtures, But war was again raging, the history | of Sir Francis Drake, Captain Motyan, and ‘other bold adventurers, an acoount of whose exploits he had purchased from Bryce Suails- foot, aatl made mach impreasion on his mind, and tiag offer of Captain Cleveland to talgpdjp: to sea, frequently recurred to him, although (the pleasure of such a project was somewhat damped by a dgubt, whether, iu the long run, ‘re shoald not find many objectiuny to bis pro posed commander.

WASTING AT THE BUNG TO SAVE AT THE SPIGOT — HON. JAMES YOUNG OPPOSES THR ANNEXATIONISTS—-—A FORCIBLE REVIEW OF THE SITUATION— HOW THE HOME AND FOREIGN MARKETS WOULD BE APFECTED.
Hon: James Young, a life-long Reformer, au ex-member of the Mowat Adininistration, & Reform journalist of experience, and a business man with varied counections, has written several letters to show why in his Opinion commercial union is impracticable and undesirable. Mr. Young's arguments are temperate but forcible, and make strongly against the fad endorsed by so many of his political friends and associates.
COMMERCIAL UNION NOT RECIPROCITY.
He first points out that while extended commercial relations with the United States um sume Classes of products may be desirable the United States is solely responsible for the tariff wall which at present exists. Proceed- ing he says that in discussing this question it is high tuume every candid writer ceased to speak of recipi city and commercial union as the same thing. They ave materially ditfer- ent. Reciprocity is one thing, commercial union quite another. The former is simply & commercial question, the latter is, in addition, a nauional and political question of the nest vital character. Many wi its advo- cates seek tu shirk or ignore this. But it is impessibe. It is of the very essence of Mr.
duttcrworth’s bill, ample proof of which, if any were needed, might be found in the fact that whilst in Canada its fiiends are eomstant- ly protesting it won't allect british connection and lead to annexatiun, its popularity in the States arises ehiefly from the belief that it would speedily bring about these very results. THE FARMER NUT HOPELESS AND HELPLESS.
Before proceeding, however, to the discus- siou of tie commercial question, Mr. Young refers to a few of the incorrect assumptions of the advocates of commercial wpion as fullows:
(1) How absurd it is, not to say umpatrivtic, to speak of Canadians, especiaily ouc farmers, as being poverty stricken and suffering serivus disadvantapes as compared with our American neighbors. Sixty millions of people will naturally have larger cities, larger mdustries and larger wealth than tive millions. But, aa 1 have had occasion to remark betore, I do not believe that in the most favored parts of the Unionthe masses of the peopie are wealthier, healthier or happier than in our own noble Province of Ontario, wh&st in the majority of the states and territories their pvsition is quite infe;ior to ours in almost every resp. ct.
(2) Equally fallacious isit to assume that the Canadian farmer pays all the duties on the horses, C@@le, barley, etc., which are ex. | ported across tue lines. For forty years the Liberal party has been taught differently, and the demonstrations of Adam Smith, contirmed A by all great living political economists, as well a8 by practical experience, clearly prove the contsary.
(3) I may also notice the assumption so fre- quently in ulged in, that commercial union would open up to our farme:s a market of 60,000,000 of consumers, With equal truth it might be ssid that it would bring upon them 0,000,000 of competitors, fora nation
which exports over $00,000,000 worth of | farm products annually cannot require to im ; port similar articles for their own consymp tion. DISASTROUS TO BUSINESS INTERESTS.
Discussing the etfect of the measure if passed, Mr. Young finds thatthe lotof our fishermen would not be improved and our ‘dumber industry injured. The dazzling pic-
ture of the wealth to be drawn from our ‘‘mountains of copper and iron” will not bear close scrutiny, while the ruin of our im- porting and manufacturing trade would pro- duce within twelve months a commercial crisis that would affect all classes. The claim that our manufactures would have a sale all over the United States, Mr. Young regards as a dream for two reasons : First. All descriptims of American manu- 'factures are extensively covered by patents, ‘either wholly or in part. These patents rug for long terms of years, and prevent competi- ‘tion with the patented articles in any of the states or territories of the Union. Many of | these same manufactures are made in Canada, | but few of them have been patented here; consequently, whilst the Americans could overrun our limited market with their patent, ed goods, our manufacturers who make the | same article or parts thereof would continue j to be as completely shut out of the States as they are at present.
Second, Under commercial union the com- mencement cf large industrial establishments in Canada would be checked if not altogether
; prevented. Jt would offer a premium te manufacturers to avoid Canada, for the very obvious and powerful reason that if they lo-
, cated here the repeal of the treaty would lose
' them eleven-tweliths of thei: market and en- tail perilo.s loss both in real estate and plant. Oa the other hand, by locating in the States
{they would be certain of the whole of that
‘large market and enjoy ours alse whilst the treaty lasted. Under these circumstances [ submit that whatever else may be said in favor of commercial union, it would inevitably be most disastrous to Canadian manufactarea, both at present and in future. 1 shall not en-
_ large on this point except tosay what this
would mean, not only toour leading cities,
, but such places as Stratford, Woodstock, Brantford, Galt, Berlin, Paris, Oshawa, and
‘other rising towns and villages throughout
ithe Dominion, requires no prophet to foretell.
HOW If WILL HURT THE FARMER.
On the agricnitural phase of the question Mr. Young comesout stroug. After inquiring how, if the farmers are suffering from protec: tion they hope to better themselves by an al- liauce with a still higher protection, he saye~ and here a long quotation will be allowable:
** Whilst improving our farmers’ Americag trade, commericia] uvivn, unlike reciprocity, would injure their home and British warkets. These three markets absorb nearly all our agricultural produce, and the foumer, I sub: mit, is the least important to our farmers for the following reasons: (1) Becatise our neigh. bors raise anuually ove: $2,210,000000 worth of the same products which we raise; (2) be cause the Gri'ish is the consuming market for the surplus products of both countrice and de. termines the price; and (3) because they take less of our products than the home or British markets, and wnat they do buy, except horses barley and a {uw other items, is either re-ex- ported or displaces produce of their own—in either cases adding to the competition of our direct shipments in the Mother Country.
