THE PIRATE.

By Sir Walter Scott.

CHAPTER XIII. (Continwed. )

‘Spoken like an angel, most noble poet,” said Cleveland, who, during an interval of the dance, stood near the party in which this conversation was held. ‘fhe old champions you talked to us about yesternight, were the men tomake a harp ring —gallant fellows, that were friends to the sea, and enemies to all that sailed on it. Their ships, I suppose, were clumsy enough: but if it is true that they went upon the account as far as the Levant, | scarce believe that ever better fellows un- loosed a topsail.”’

“Ay,” replied Halcro, ‘‘there you spoke them right... In those days. none could call their life «nd means of living their own, unless they dwelt twenty miles out of sight of the blue sea, Why, they had public prayers put up in every church in Europe, for deliverance from the ire of the Northmen. In France and England, ay, and in Scotland, too, for as high as they hold their head now a-days, there was not a bay or a haven, but it was freer to our forefathers than to the poor devils of natives; aid now we cannot, forsooth, so much as grow our own barley without Scottish help” —(here he darted a sareastic glance at the factor)—‘‘I would I- saw the time we were to measure arms with them again |”

‘‘Spoken like a hero once more,” said Cleve- land.

“‘Ah !” continued the little bard, “I would it were possible to see our barks, once the water-dragons of the world, swimming with the black raven standard waving at the top- mast, and their decks glimmering with arms, iustead of being heaped up with stockfish— winning with our fearless hands what the niggard soil denies—paying back all old scorn and modein injury—reaping where we never sowed, and felling what we never planted— living and laughing through the world, and smiling when we were summoned to quit it!”

So spoke Claud Halero, in no serious, or ‘at least most certainly in no sober mood, his brain (never the most stable) wizzing under the influence of fifty well-remembered sagas, besides five bumpers of usquebaugh and brandy ; and Cleveland, between jest and ‘earnest, clapped him on the shoulder, and lagain repeated, ‘‘ Spoken like a hero !" | ‘* Spoken like a fool, I think,” said Magnus ‘froil, whose attention had also been attracted bby the vehemence of the little bard—‘‘ where i would you eruize upon, or against}whom ?—we ‘ave all subjects of one realm, I trow, and I ' would have you to remember, that your voy- |age may bring up at Execution-dock.— I like 'not the Scots— no offence, Mr. Yellowley— ‘that is I would like them well enough if they jwould stay quiet in their own land, and leave us at peace with our own people, and manners, and fashions ; and if they would but abide there till I went to harry them like a mad old Berserkar, I would leave them in peace till the day of judgement. With what the sea sends us, and the land lends us, as the proverb says, and a set of honest neighbourly folks to help us to consume it, so help me Saint Magnus, as 1 think we are even but too happy ! ”

““Tknow what war is,” said an old man, "and | would as soon sail through Sumburgh- roost in a cockle-shell, or in a werse loom, as I would venture there again. ”

“« And, pray, what wars knew your valor?” said Halero, who, though forbearing to con- tradict his landlord from a sense of respect, was not a whit inclined to abandon his argu- ment to any meaner authority.

‘«T was pressed,” answered the old Triton, ‘to serve under Montrose, when he came here about the year sixteen hundred and fifty-one, and carried a sort of us off, will ye nill ye, to get our throats cut in the wilds of Strath- navern. 1 shall never forget it we had been hard put to it for victuals—what would I have giyen for a luncheon of Burgh-Westra beef— ay, or a mess of sour sillocks? When our Highlandmen brought in a dainty drove of kyloes, much ceremony there was not, tor we shot, and felled, and flayed, and roasted, and broiled, as it came to every man’s hand; till just as our beards were at the greasiest, we heard,—God preserve us—a tramp of horse, then twa or three drapping shots,—then came a full salvo,—-and then, when the officers were crying on us to stand, and maist of us looking which way we might run away, down they broke, horse and foot, with old John Urry, or Hurry, or whatever they call him—he hurried us that day, and worried us to boot—and we began to fall as thick as the stots that we were felling five minutes before.”

‘‘ And Montrose,” said the soft voice of the graceful Minna; ‘‘ what became of Montrose, or how looked he?

‘* Like a lion with the hunters before him,” answered the old gentleman; ‘‘ but I looked pot twice his way, for my own lay right over the hill.”

“ And so you left him?” said Minna, in a tone of the deepest contempt.

‘“1t was no fault of mine, Mistress Minna,”’ answered the old man, somewhat out of countenance; ‘‘but I was there with no choice of my own; and, besides, what good could I have done ?—all the rest were run- ning like sheep, and why should [ have staid?”

‘“You might have died with him,” Minna.

‘*And lived with him to all eternity, in im. mortal verse !” added Claud Halcro.

‘‘] thank you, Mistress Minna,” replied the plain-dealing Zetlander ; ‘‘and 1 thank you, my old friend Claud ;—but I would rather drink both you healths in this good bicker of ale, like a living man as 1 am, than that you should be making songs in my honor, for hay- ing died forty or fifty years agone. But what signified it,—run or flight, ‘twas all one; they took Montrose, poor fellow, for all his doughty deeds, and they took me that did no doughty deeds at all ; and they hanged him, poor man, and as for me—-—"

“T trust in Heaven they flogged and pikkled you,” said Cleveland, worn out of patience with the dull narrative of the peaceful Zet lander’s poltroonery, of which he seemed so wondrous little ashamed.

United States Potato Crop.

The U. 8. government report for October of the potato crop is as follows: The pre- sent season has been peculiarly unfavorable for potatoes from the beginning. The first report of the year, that for July, showed condition lower than it has averaged at that date since 1873, but high enough to have insured a good crop had subsequent condi- tions been favorable. The usual drawbacks of this crop, drought and insects, were early encountered, and on Aug. 1 the general average was lower than ever re- ported so early in the season. At that date the injury had been vecasioned by drought in the west, the crop in the east and south promising well. The September report showed a further falling off in every state, especially severe in those sections which until then had maintained a comparatively high average. The present report of sondi- tion isthe lowest ever reported in any month, and indicates a very light crop in every section where grown. The general average is 61.5, against 67.3 in September, and 80.8 in August. This being the last report of condition, the next return relat- ing. to yield per acre, unless our corres- pondents are unduly influenced by. the gloomy outlook, should give an intelligent idea vi the probable outcome. Last year condition feil to 81 in October, and the crop was a small one—about 163,000,000, or 73 bushels per acre. The largest crop ever grown was that of 1883, when the yield per acre was 91 bushels, following an Octo- ber condition of 93, the highest with one exception ever known. The year in which the last report of condition most nearly ap- proached that of the present was 1881, when it stood at 67. The yield per acre that year was only 53.5 bushels, and while a lower condition now does not necessarily forecast a smaller yield, the probabilities are that it will be the least ever reported. The decline of the past month has been very severe in New England and the middle states, reducing their previously high aver- ages to about thesame level as in the drought areas of the Western states. The heavy fall is attributed almost entirely to the severity of rot, the beginning of which was noted last month in tAis section as a result of ex- cessive August moisture. The same com- plaint comes from almost every county, and many correspondents place the damage at 50 per cent. and even higher. In the South Atlantic and Gulf states, where, however, the crop is of comparatively little importance, returns indicate a product of medium proportions, while on the Pacific slope condition is unusually high. Slight improvement is noted in Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa, the result, perhaps, of returning confidence rather than an actual bettering of condition. Generally, however, in this section there is a further slight decline as theseffeet of the summer drought are rendered more apparent by the approach of harvest.

Give Them a Chance!

That is to say, your lungs. Also all your breathing machinery. Very wonderful machinery it is. Not only the larger air passages, but the thousands of little tubes and cavities leading from them.

When these are clogged and choked matter which ought lungs cannot half do their work. they do they cannot do well. Call it cold, cough, croup, pneumonia, catarrh, cansumption or any of the family of throat and nose and head and lung obstruc- tions, all are bad. All ought to be got rid of. There is just one sure way to get rid of them. That is to take Boschee’s German Syrup, which any druggist will sell at 75 cents a bottle. Even if everything else has failed you, you may depend upon this for certain.

MADE AN END OF HERSELF.—‘‘A laughable story is told relative to Mrs. End, formerly Mrs. Etter, of Halifax. The incident is said to have occurred when she was suing for a di- voree from her first husband. At that time the executive and legislative councils of Nova Scotia had combined jurisdiction in the mat- ter ot granting divorce. Bishop Inglis, being ex officio a member of the council, was present when this case was before that body. When the case was nearing the close, Mrs. Etter be- ing in the court room, the bishop asked her what she proposed to do when her divorce had been obtained, The woman whose matrimon- ial venture had proved so disastrous, replied in a melancholy tone that she propose to make an end of herself. His Lordship was ‘orrified. Mrs. Etter had been in her childhood a schol- ar in his Sunday school. He remonstrated with her her, dilated upon the enormity of the sin of suicide, and expended upon her much eloquence and good advice. but all to no purpose. She had:lived a miserable life, she said, and the burden was too great. And 80, grieved at heart, his lorship left her. With in a week, glancing over the columns of the weekly paper, hesaw the notice of the mar- riage of Mrs. Etter to William End, Esq. Truly she had made an end of herself. —St, John Sun.
