(Continued. ) “Na, na, good mother,” answered Snails- foot, ‘‘I desire no man’s life for my private advantage, and am just grateful for the bless- ing of Providence on my sma’ trade. But doubtless one man’s loss is another's gain ; and as these storms destroy a’ thing on land, it is 'but fair they should send us something by /8ea, Nae, taking the freedom, like yerseil, mother, to burrow a lump of barley bread,and a draught of bland, [ will bid good day, and thank you, to this good yentlemin and iady, ‘and een go on my way to Jarlshof, as you |advise.” ** Ay,” replied ths Pythoness, ‘‘ where the slaughter is the eagles will be gathered ; and ‘where the wreck is on the shore, the jagger is astbusy to purchase spoil as the3shark to gorge upon the dead.” | This rebuke, if it was intended for such, ‘seemed above the comprehension of the ,traveiling merchant, who, bent upon gain, ‘assumed the knapsack and eilwand, and | asked Mordaunt, with the familiarty per- ; mitted in a wild country, whether he would 'not take company along with him? ‘*] wait to est some dinner with Mr. Yellowley and Mrs. Baby,” answered the youth, ‘‘ and will set forth in half an hour.” ‘Then I'll just take my piece in my hand,” said the pedlar. Accordingly he muttered a benediction, and without more ceremony, helped himse.f to what, in Mrs, Baby’s covetous eyes, appeared to be two-thirds of the bread, took a long pull gat the jug of bland, seized on a handtul of the small fs) called sillocks, which the domestic was plac- ing on the board, and left the room with- ‘out further ceremony. : | ‘* My certie,” said the despoiled Mrs. Baby, |** there is the chapmans’ drouth and his bun- ger baith, as folk say. If the laws against | vagrants be executed this gate —It’s no that I wad shut the door against decent folk,” she said, looking to Mordaunt, ‘‘ more especiaily ‘in such judyment-weather. But I see the goose is dished, poor thing.” | This she spoke in a tone of affection for the smoked goose, which, thongh it had been an inanimate inhabitant of her chimney, was far more interesting to Mrs. Baby in that state, than when it screamed amongst the clouds. Mordauat laughed and took his seat, then turned to look for Norna, but she had glided from the apartment during the discussion with the pedlar, | ‘*lam glad she is gane, the dour carline,” said Mrs. Baby, *‘tuough she has left that piece of gowd to be an everlasting shame to us. ‘* Whist, mistress, for the love of heaven !”’ said Tronda Dronsdaughter; ‘‘ wha kens w ere she may be this moment? We are no sure but she may hear us, though we cannot see her.” Mistress Baby cast a startled eye around, ‘and instantly recovering herself, for she was naturally courageous as well as violent, said, :“*I bade her aroint before, and I bid her aroint again, whether she sees me or hears me, or whether she’s ower the cairn and awa. And you, ye silly sumph,” she said to poor Yellowley, ‘‘what do ye stand glowering there fur? You a Saunt Andrew's student !— you studied lair and Latin humanities, as ye ca’ them, and daunted wi’ the clavers of an ,auld randie wife! Say your best college grace, man, and witch, or nae witch, weil eat our dinner, and defy her, And for the value of the gowden piece, it shall never be said I pouched her siller. I will gie it to some poor body—that is, I will test upon it at my death, and keep it fora purse-penny till that day comes, and that’s no using it in the way of spending-siller. Say your best , college grece, man, and let us eat and drink |in the meantime*” ; ‘*Yehad muckle better say an oramus to , Saint Ronald, and fling a saxpence ower your left shoulder, master,” said Tronda. |} ‘That ye may pick it up, ye jaud,” said ‘the implacable Mistress Baby; ‘it will be lang ‘or ye win the worth of it ony other gate. Sit ‘down, Triptolemus, aud mindna the words of la daft wife.” i “Datt or wise,” replied Yellowley, very imucb disconcerted, ‘‘she kens more than 1 'would wish she kend. It was awifu’ to see sie \a wind fa’ at the voice of flesh and blood like ! oursells—and then yon about tue hearch-stane —I cannot but think——” “If we cannot but think,” said Mrs. Baby, i very sharply, ‘‘at least ye can haud your j tongue 7” ‘The agriculturist made no reply, byt sate down to their scauty ineal, and did the honurs of it with unusual heartiness to his new guest, the first of the intruders who had arrived, and the last who left them. The sillocks speedily disappeared, and the smoked goose, with its appendages, took wing so effectually, that Tronda, to whom the polishing of the bones had been destined, found the task accomplish- ed, or nearly so, to herhand. After dinner, the host produced his bottle of brandy; but Mordaunt, whose general habits were as sober almost as those of his father, laid a very light tax upon this unusual exertion of hospitality. During the meal, they learned so much of young Mordaunt, and of his father, that even Baby resisted his wish to reassume his wet garments, and pressed him (at the risk of an expensive supper being added to the charges of the day) to tarry with them till the next morning. But what Norna had said excited the youth’s wish to reach home, nor, however far the hospitality of Stourburgh was extend- ed in his behalf, did the house present any particular temptations to induce him to re- main there longer. He therefore accepted the loan of the factor’s clothes, promising to re- turn them, and send for his own; and took a civil leave of his hostand Mistress Baby, the latter of whom, however affected by the loss of her gouse, could not but think the cost well bestowed (since it was to be expended at ail) upon so handsome and cheerful a youth. (To be continued.) ne orn ee Forty-two years ago a lawsuit was begun in Illinois for the possession of a pig valued at $2. As figured upafew days ago, the expenses on both sides had amounted to about $7,009.

Whitney and Luce. The correspondence between Secretary Whitney and Admiral Luce, coucerning the queries submitted by the admiral to Capt. Scott, of the Canadian fishery service, has been made public. ; The secretary says that while the admiral’s motive was honorable and praise worthy, his method of obtaining the desired information was improper. Ii he wished tv enlighten the American fishing fleet in regard to the law to which they would be subjected by the officials in Canadian ports, he should have gone to the department of state, instead of tou a subordinate Canadian officer, whose statement would un- authorized and possibly narrow. Captain Scott’s interpretation of the law was varrow, and did not by any means define the full rights of the American fishermen. It cou- promised the American position, and when Admiral Luce printed and circulated these views the effect practicaliy to nullify the treaty. Secretary Whitney regrets that the Adiuirai should have ; consulting the department. the letter is kind and friendly.

America’s Minerai Products. The total value of the mineral prodacts of the United States increased in round numbers, from $128,000,000 in 1885 to $465,000,000 in 1886. The important fac- tor in this gain of $37,000,000 was the increased production of pig iron from 4,044 525 long tons in 1885 to 5,683,325 long tons in 1886 and an appreciation of 75 cents in the average value per ton, making a total of $30,483,560 in this industry alone. The total value of gold produ ed in 18386 was $35,000,000, an increase of $3, 199,000 over 1885. The production of siver decreased from $51,600,000 in 1885 to $51,000,000 in 1886. Phe production « copper in 1886 amounted to 169,678,081 pounds, a devrease of 10,284,526 pounds from 1885. The total production of lead increased to 136,629 tons in 1886. In 1885 the the production was 129,412 tons. fhe production of white lead in 1886 is esti mated at 60,000 tors ‘The total value of the oxides of lead was about 1,536, - 000. The zine production was 42,641 short tons, an increase of 1953 short tons over 1885. In production of quicksilver in California was 29,981 flasks. This is a decrease of 2052 but the total value shows an increase of $80,811, due to an increase in production of coke in 1886 was 6,8 short tons. This is the duction ever reached in the United States. The total production of petroleum was 28,110, 115 barrels of 42 gallons each, of which the Pennsylvania and New York fields pro- duced 25,799,000 barrels. 6,628,074 barrels over 1885.

The rescue of Vincent was effected by the united efforts of the reveaue ship Bear, in an Indian village near Natarin. Vincent was ina deplorable condition when rescued. The miserable Indian clothing which partly covered him was tied upon his body in order to keep it from ialling off, and his head was shaven in Indian style When properly clothed and nourished, the unfor- tunate man was able to vive a history of his terrible suffering. When the whaling bark Napoleon, of which he was one of the crew, was crushed in the ice, all hands took te the boats without procuring provisions of any description. Soon after leaving the bark the boats became separated, the one in which Vincent was and another going tugether. Each of those oats contained nine men, who were sometimes on ice and sometimes in the boats for many days. Dur- ing this time their food consisted of two small seals and the leather of their boots. The weather was bitterly eold, their hands, feet, ears and noses and dropped off. When the boats finally reach- ed the shore, only five of the 15 men com- prising their crews remained Of these, Vincent was the only one who was able to walk. Twoofthe men who landed died shortly after going ashore, and the natives reported that the survivors ate the flesh off the body of their dead companions. Vin- cent, the mate, and a sailor alone remained. The two latter succumbed to death during the first winter,and Vincent was left among the natives. He had lived with the Indians for two years and a half, and when at last succored by Capt. Healey, h» was a most pitiful specimen of humanity.
