‘You are their chief.”

“T am.”

‘Captian I presume ?”

“That is my rank.”

‘*And uow, Senor Captian, am I your captive ?

The question took me by suprise, and, for amoment, I did not know what answer to make. The excitement of the chase, the encounter, and its curious developments—perhaps, above all other things, the bewitching beauty of my captive—had driven out of my mind the “ hole purposeof the pursuit; and for some minutes I had not been thisking of any result. The interrogatory remiuded me that I hada delicate duty to perform. Was this lady a spy?

Such a supposition was by no means improbable, as anv old campaiguer can testify. ‘*Fair ladies—though never one so fair as she—have, ere now, served their countzy in this fashion. She may

On the other hand, [ disliked the duty of taking her back aprisouer. I[ feared io execute it; 1 dreaded her displeasure. I wished to be friends with her. 1 felt tue jufluence of that power which trans- cends all strength—the power of beauty. i had been but ten minutes in the com- pay of this brown skinned maiden, and|” already she controlled my heart as ‘hough she had been its mistress for life !

I knew not how to reply. She saw that | hesitated, and again put the ques-

tion :

‘‘ Am I your captive?”

‘| fear, seuorita, I am yours,”

I was prompted to this declaration, partly to escape from # direct answer, and partlygiving way to the passion ilready fast gatheting in my bosom. It was no coquetry on my part, vo desire io make a pretty passage of words. Though [ spoke ouly from impulse, | was serious ; ith uo. litte auxietyedud. 1 -waich the effect of my speech.

Her large lustrous eyes rested upon me, at first with a puzzled expression ; this gradually changed to one of more

sigdificance —one that pleased me better, She seemed for a moment to throw aside her indifference, aud regarded me with more attention. I fancied, from the glance she gave, that she was contented with what [ had said. For all that, the slight curl upon her pretty lip had a provoking air of triumph in it ; and she resumed her proud hanteur as she repiled: “Come, cavallero, this is pliment. Am I free to go?” I wavered betwixt duty and over- politeness : a compromise offered itself.

‘‘Lady,” said I, approaching her, and looking as seriously as I could into her beaatiful eyes, “if you give me your word that you are not a spy, you are free to go : your word—J ask nothing more.”

idle com-

I prescribed these conditions rather in a tone of entreaty than command. I affected sternness, but my countenance must have mocked me.

My captive broke into unrestrained lapghter, crying out at interv als: “Ia spy Ia spy! Ha, ha, Senor Capitan, you are jesting?”

‘“‘ T hope, sevorita, you are iv earnest, You are no spy, then ?—you bear no dis- patch to our enemy ?”

‘‘ Nothing of the sort, mio capitan ; and she continued her light laughter. ‘Why, then, did you try to make away from us? "

“Ab, cavallero! are you not Tre- janos? Do not be offended when I teil you that your people bear but an indifs ferent or ion among us Mexicans.”

Fine Arts in China and Japan.

** All objects of High Ceramic Art from China or Japan were manufactured et either the Emperor's own, or at Mandarine’s private potteries, for their own special! nse, or as presents (o individuals of high etand- ing. In nocase are they made for sale. Those pieces. which find their way to {urope have usually been obtained by pil- lage, or a8 presenis to Evrepeans (a rere thing), as they are never cffered in stores, either new or second hand, in either covn- try The Emperor monopolizesthe finest specimens of Poreelain manufactured im his doininions; and it has thence been asserted that none which has ever found its way to Europe gives an adequate idea of the per- fection to which the Chinese haye attained in this manufacture.”

This is quoted from a work published in 1846, and was at that time perfectly true. Since that time, however, the sacking of the Empercr’s summer palace at Pekin, when some hundreds of the finest pieces ever made fell imtu the hends of private soldiers, to be borne home as trophies, have made art students in Evrope familiar with | these beautiful objects,w hich have gradually found their way into god collections, where they are prized as they should be.

The above remarks apply to carthen- ware and porcelain vases, and pieces of por- celain of other shapes, of high finish; to enamels, which are of a still more costly character, because of the greater difiieulty of manufacture, the higher price of ma- terials, and the rarity of such pieces ; also to curious bronze vases, inlaid with silver, often more grotesque than pretty, but are sought after on this account in order to set off other objects, which really possess the elements of the beautifal.

No Enropean has ever been admitted within the works where these fine objects are made ; hence the mystiry which hangs round their production. The Jesuits did their utmost to penetrate within the pre- cincts of the potteries, All they could do was to ascertain the kind of clay from

which porcelain was made, and which they called ** Kaolin,” first used in Enrope at ; Dresden, in England at Cheisca, Toil Bri-tol,] Lowestoit, Worcester, Derby and Liverpool, in the order stated. Iis use, then, became general through Staffoid- shire.

The best imitations of Chinese ware, with Chineze figures, were made first at Lowestoft, then at Liverpool by Chefiers. Let me conclude with a remark by Bishop Wilkins : ‘‘ The arts may be said to imitate nature, or to help, or to overcome, and advanee nature ; nor are they therefore to be esteemed less noble because more prac- ticable, since our best end most divine knowledge is intended for action; and those may justly be accounted barren studies-which do not condnce to practice as their proper end.”

MARKHTS.

OATS. The priee of oats in the English market is steadily declining. Nineteen shullings and nine pence per quarter of 304 pounds is allthat is given for French ports, and nineteen shillings and three pence is cficred for English ports. There is but iittle business doing with oats in this province. Prices range trom 35 to 88 cents, tor small ots.

POTATOES.

The potatoe market of the United Sates and of the Provinces remains the same as last reported. A good article for table use is required in this city, for which 40 cents per bushel can be obtained.

FLOUR,

The Montreal Gazette of the 28th Nov says :-—

The flour market was quiet, and in the absence of quotations prices remain about as last quoted. We understand, however, that owing to light stocks of flour in Que- bec, buyers for that market were looking around on the 26th, but their bids were said to be low. The only sales reported on ’Chance were 50 spring extra ats 6 and 50 pollards at $3.00, and 100 barrels spring extra at $5.95

In the Montreal market there was no naterial change in hog produets en the 26th, The sales was mentioned of several 20 and 25 barrel lots of cold Western mees- pork at $20, new mess pork being quoted at $21.
