(Continued. ) The place which he now occupied was the small projecting spot of stones, san and gravel, that extended a little way into the sea, which on the right hand lashed the very bottom of the precipice, and on the left was scarce divided from it by asmall wave-worn portion of beach that extended as far as the foot of the rent in the rocks called Erick’s Steps, by which Mordaunt’s father proposed to descend. When the vessel split and went to pieces all was swallowed up in the ocean, which had, after the first shock, been seen to float upon the waves, excepting only a few pieces of wreck, casks, chests, and the like, which a strong eddy, formed by the reflux of the waves, had landed, or at least grounded, | upon the shallow where Mordaunt now stood, Amongst these his eager eye dis- covered the object that had at first engaged his attention, and which now, seen at nigh- er distance, proved to be in truth a man, and in a most precarious state. His arms were still wrapped with a close and conyul- sive grasp round the plank to which he had clung in the moment of the shock, but sense and the power of motion were fled; and, from the situation in which the plank lay, partly grounded upon the beach, partly floating in the sea, theres was every chance that it might be again washed off shore, in which case death was inevitable. Just as he had made himself aware of these cir- cumstances, Mordaunt beheld a huge wave advancing, and hastened to interpose his aid ere it burst, aware that the reflux might probably sweep away the sufferer. He rushed into the surf and fastened on the body with the same tenacity, though under a different impulse, with that where- | with the hound seizes his prey. The’ strength of the retiring wave proved even stronger than he had expected, and it was not without a struggle for his own life, as well as for that of the stranger, that Mor- daunt resisted being swept off with the re- ceding billow, when, though an adroit swimmer, the strength of the tide must, either have dashed him against the rocks, or hurried him out to sea. He stood his ground, however, and ere another such billow had returned he drew up, upon the small slip of dry sand, both the body of the stranger, and the plank to which he con- | tinued firmly attached. But how to save! and to recall the means of ebbing life and! strength, and how to remove into a place of | greater safety the sufferer, who was incapa-| ble of giving any assistance towards his own | preservation, were questions which Mor- daunt asked himself eagerly, but in vain. He looked to the summit of the cliff on which he had left his father, and shouted to him for his assistance; but his eye could, not distinguish his form, and his voice. was} only answered by the scream of thejsea- birds. He gaze] again on the sufferer. A dress richly laced, according to the fashion of the times, fine linen, and rings upon his fingers, evinced he was a man of superior rank; and his features showed youth and comeliness, notwithstanding they were pallid and disfigured. He still breathed, but so feebly, that his respiration was al- most imperceptible, and life seemed to keep such shght hold of his frame, that there was every reason to fear it would be- come altogether extinguished unless it were speedily reinforced. ‘To loosen the hand- kerchief from his neck, to raise him with his face towards the breeze, to support him with his arms, was all that Mordaunt could do for his assistance, whilst he anxiously looked for some one who might lend his aid in dragging the unfortunate to a more safe situation. At this moment he beheld a man ad- vancing slowly and cautiousiy along the beach. He was in hopes, at first, it was his father, but instantly recollected that he had not had time to come around by the circuitous descent, to which he must necessarily have recourse, and besides, he saw that the man who approached him was shorter in stature. As he came nearer, Mordaunt was at no loss to recognize the pedlar whom the day before he had met with Harfra, and who was known to him before upou many oc- casions. He shouted as loud as he could, ‘* Bryce, hallo ! Bryce, come hither!” But the merchant, intent upon picking up some of the spoils of the wreck, and upon drag- ging them out of reach of the tide, paid for some time little attention to his shouts. When he did at length approach Mor- daunt, it was not to lend him his aid, but to remonstrate with him on his rashness in undertaking the charitable office. ‘* Are you mad?” said he ; ‘‘ you that have lived sae lang in Zetland, to risk the saving of a drowning man / Wot ye not, if you bring him to life again, he will be sure to do you some capital injury /—Come, Master Mor- daunt, beara hand to what’s mair to the purpose. Help me to get one or twa of these kists ashore before anybody else comes, and we shall share, like good Chris- ians, what God sends us, and be thanful. (To be continued.) ED Apvice To Mornrers.— Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain; and the little cherub awakes as ‘“‘bright asa button.” It is very pleasant w taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all ain, regulates the bowels, and is the best now remedy for diarrhea, whether arising from teething or other causes, Twenty-five cents a bottle.

The Scott Act. Sir, —Certain statements made by ‘Tem- perance,” in his last letter, would lead people to imagine that the importation of liquor from Halifax is a branch of trade that has grown up under the Scott Act, and that the decrease in the Customs amount passing through our Customs is more than balanced by the importation from this quarter. It is somewhat singular that im conversation with a gentleman now residing in P. E. Island, who held an. influential position in Halifax for several years, he made the statement to me that although he was not familiar with the working of the Scott Act here, yet he could give this testi- mony in its favor, that one of the largest liquor merchants in Halifax had told him recently that his export of liquor to P. E. Island was not one-tewth of what it had been before the Act came into operation. T. C. James. Ee Odds and Ends. The Queen of Sweden is slowly dying. She is 51 years of age. The British steamship Roeupor, from Carthagena, Aug. 30, for Philadelphia, with a crew of 32 men, is supposed to be lost. The German Crown Prince says he is not yet able tojsing, but his voice is improving and he takes a six mile walk without traces of fatigue. ——- An Anarchist meeting at Jersey City, N. J., Sunday,was dispersed by the police, who were resisted. One man was so severly in- juied that he may die. A single highwayman stopped a stage the other night near Ballinger, Texas, and rob- bed its eight passengers of about $2,000. An hour later he robbed another stage bound in an opposite direction in the same place. Mgr. O'’Bryen, who was papal ablegate to confer the baretta upon Cardinal Tashereau, arrived at Quebec, Sunday, by the Sarma- tian. He came totally unexpected by the Cardinal. His mission is a complete mys- tery. A Pesth despatch states that the official newspapers regard the Emperor Francis Joseph’s speech as reassuring. The inde- pendent journals, however, say that the people cannot be satisfied with an armed peace that involves such heavy sacrifices. A committee of the white cross guild, which has been making eiquiry into the statemcnts as to the debauchery of child- ren in Ottawa, find there is much truth in statements made, and propose to ask the assistance of the Attorney-General of Ontario with a view of stamping out the evil. The house of Nish Vitidage, at Tower, Mion., was burned Friday. Two little Vitid- age has since died from his injuries. The father threw one of the children back into fire after it had been rescued. He was in- sane from the time of the fire until his death. The New York Herald's Washington special says Secretary Bayard stated Sunday that be knew a week ago of Ger- many’s intention to seize Samoa. The interests of American residents would not be interfered with and this being the case the American government would not take any action in the premises. Mrs. Francis Hawkins, an aged lady, was found dead Sunday morning in the woods, at Islip, N. Y., having been beaten to death. Her son, aged 22, has been ar- rested. Bloody clothing was found in his room. He had quarrelled with his mother because she opposed his wish to marry a servant girl. J. H. McGhindley, of Cleveland, Ohio, is under arrest, charged with drawing pensions in the names of a large number of widows who are found, on investigation, to have died long ago. McGhindley is an expert forger. It is estimated he has swindled the government of the United States out of $200,000 during the past eighteen years, The New York Tribune’s London des- patch says: The situation in Ireland is becoming distinctly aggravated and the government's supporters are demanding that there shall be no pause in the action of the administration. It is pointed out that if the state of affairs ten days ago required the suppresion of two hundred branches, the root and stem of the league should now be struck down. It is reported that Mr. Balfour is determined to per- severe to the extent, if necessary, of civil war, Several branches of the National League held mectings Sunday in Mitchellstown district. In one case hundreds of people evaded che police and went to a fortified house outside the town where a meeting took place. Mandeville, who was tried with U’Brien for using seditious language and ws seatenced to two months imprison- ment but was released on bail, presided, and made a speech in which he said it was impossible to destroy the gLeague. Re- solutions wete passed strongly condemning the government's interference with public meetings and freedom of speech. i Tuer: is an eclipse this year that the as- tronomers failed to note.
