All parts of the United States and Canada are represented. It w.t* decided to hold theannn .1 meeting of tho Right Worthy Grund Lodge in Portland^ Me., in May. The Import Trade of Cm ija from the Unii< d States seems to be increasing in in­ verse ratio to that from the old country, or rather the decrease iu imports has but slightly fallen off from tho States, whilst from Great Britain they shew au alarming decrease. In 1878 our imports from Great Britain amounted to 168,5'22,776, and in 1876 to 140,734.209, or a decrease of over 40 per cent, while tho figures for the corres­ ponding years from the States were 847,785,678 and 846,070.088 or a decrease of barely 8j p?r couti, notwithstanding the dull and exceptional times we have recent­ ly passed through. In 1873 our imports from Great Britain exceeded thuie from the States by twenty-une millioeo, whilst ln*t year not only were the twouty-ou# millions excess wiped entirely out, but we actually took from the States some five millions a id alndfinuro than from G;ea‘. Britain. Th" cause of this Unfortunate cbinge is on* which should engage m >*t seriously those who have It in their power either to re­ move or render the discrepancy not so groat. Wo in no wsy wish to be unjust but we cannot refrain from expressing our opinion that, to a certain extent, tho pres­ ent Government of tho Dominion is res­ ponsible for tho balance having turned so decidedly in favor of our near neighbors to the detriment of the mother country.

Ths Inquiev into tho tn inagsmunt of iho S’ cret Service Fund was camiucnced by tho Public Account! Committee on Satur day. Mr, Drtnnmond, uizn.iger of the Ottawa branch of the bank of Montreal, was t"-e principal witness i-xnmined, and hoprompt- ly pricked the bubble that -the Grite have been infiiUiug f r the last fortnight. He wrid that Sir John M tcdonal l did not have any control over tin S -aret 8 irvia > »u ni-ty nftcr the resigmtiiu of till Mt listry. IJj (Mr. Dm urn tod) would not hiv* pril ths 86,600 without tho anthQucy of tho Au- ditor-Gonoral.” A* amitter offist Sir John made no attempt to control it.

The Dunkin By-Law in the County of Oxford bus been quashed on technic;! grounds; the By-Law will therefore bo n dond letter unless tho decision of the court bo appeals! and overruled. Tbh however wo do not anticipate. Wo never were in favor of so for curtailing tho liberty of the people as by legal menus to dictate to and force them to restrict their app-.-titaa to th limit prescribed by t'aa temperance advo­ cates backed by tbs over iwe I crowd wb-> openly vote one way, but who, with the accrccy of the bail it,would voti the reverie. The enforcement of the Dunkin Act would do good there is no doubt but whether tho evil generated thereby would not mire than counterbalance it is a matter of opin­ ion. We bavo no hesitation in saying that the precedent woifld be a bad one; it would open tho door for legislntiug on mntteni which should not come within tho proviuoi of a Government, which might wit i as much justice prescribe what w0 were not to eat r-Xccpt purchased whriezale, as what wo were not to drink. It is a sin to ovtr- ind ilge in drink and mako a brute of one­ self; it is however none tho less a sin to overindulge inhaling or in any pleasure, but the sin can in no way b.' eradicated by the means of aeoouaplisbing it being re- moved si ace the desire regains the nian. The large amount 6f illicit selling of strong liquors socasioned by tho introduction of Dunkin Act is a strong argument against tho act. We hold to the same opinion a# that expressed by thoso who have m-ido the subject a special study in the mother country that cojroiou in the liquor traffijo would bs of qo avail and that m oral aiiaztimaud education are the two only forces which can efficiently be broughttn b»arto crush effectually tho evils broughtabout by the overiudui'mwe in tho use of intoxicating liquors. ily joined band* with Wells and Chandter to •teal the president , rosy not stand np in th*tempi? an l thank God that bo ia better thanthe publican who has sat for eight year*among th* legal advitini of Gon.

Tiisr* ar*^ariins opinions open this aub- jw» am nag dairymen, ns weU m npon atanait avsry pdnt of ■praettoa ; but it is really so vital a quwtidn, connected with tka profit of the dairy, that there should not be two opinions upon it A little careful *♦.1 ly of this qusitfou, prMtioally, ought to settle it within wary narrow limits. The eras, ta w elate of nature, had a short period of lactatbn—only from thrento sis months -«th* only requiremsnt bring food for her ealf. When thia object was tritamed, the eecbetion of milk ceased. But when har milk began to ba used for human food, efforts were mi da to prolong the period of Isolation, andinsraass its flow. The model dairy cow; a<We know her, is alm>st an artyiaal prpdualjnn —a monument of skill in breeding and feeding. Instead of secret­ ing a few quart* of milk per day for three months, as did her long-ago progenitors, she yieldsyrom 4,033 to 6,033 quarts in a period of 41 W3*ks. lu a slate of nature such a prod action of milk was impossible even though the cow had had - organs of capacity, for the food and surroundings wore entirely inadsqnate. The extraor­ dinary dsvriopsmsnt of milk secretions in tbreowis entirely the work of tho breeder and feeder. If, then, this work of develop­ ing the milch cow is a good out and we are to congratulate ourselves upon its accom­ plishment, shall we not adopt in the man­ agement of the cow, tho same system which has. been successful in developing her milk production ? Il will be found that every improver has striven to extend the period of lactation, Ulis being absolutely necessary to an in­ creased aggregate yield of milk for the year. A cow that has given a good yield of the flush, hash sen encouraged by the best food and care to continue this yield as long as possible. This effort has no doubt been carried to an extreme in mauycases.fotcows should hot bo psrmitted to gi ve milk through the year as they sometimes do ; but it is seldom that a cow having a short period of seven to eight months is profitable, how ever large her yield may ba considered in tho flush. W*» have had cows giving 40 ibi. per day at the highest, and still not reach­ ing 6,000 lbs. in a year, for the want of etaytnj qualities, as the horsemen say : whilst other cows never giving over 30 lb?, pel day have reached 6,503 and C.000 in ten months. From mnch experience with many cows, tested individually, wa havo come lo^pn^Ier a short poriol as fatal to n laxxoannual yield fra n a cow that did not give milk ton months. Great yields have eomefrom nil ths miikiu? breeds, nnd from rfiose of’ common stock ; but in every instance so far as wo have been able to-learn, the cow har been a lony mil­ ker, as wel 1 as a deep milker. If (hese (facts aro acknowledged what real gran nd nap there be for two opinions upon this question of the desirable length of the milking season, except of giving a reax enable time for recuperation bpfort 4he next calf is droppad ? Facts show th a practically six weeks io two months is ample time; under propir feeding and care, for tho cow to record her energies nnd be in condition for tho next lactation- W* regard this as a most important ques­ tion lobs understood by every dairyman; for when he understands it* importance be will test each co ws staying quality, and after finding her deficient in that and in the ag. gregale quantity of milk, he will discard her. If a epw tapers off id milking nt seven months under good feeding and care, there is no use in wasting farther food upaq bw. IM her be prepared to go to the batoh*r. You do not want to keop her heifer calve*, unless the dam of tho sire was remarkable for holding out, in which ctsalb* «rif may lake this quality from the sire, for this quality in a milker is hor> edilary. Yet you tn»y increase it* very miqji ia many ansa. We have found it ndvisabte to milk the heifer with her first calf, at least not twelve months, not allow­ ing her to come in th* second rime in less lhan sigbteen months from tho first calf. Tin*Itripcto establish thq milking habit. But all long and deep milking i* based upon good feeding, which means » proper variety of food to supply all the cow’s want*. If your pasture is short and soiuty you can­ not aspect ths oow to hold out hor milk without extra food.—Ntlional Live-Stock Journal. rrintlplt* Coveruiag the PredatUen of auk. I understand .very well, u probably every other man doee who handle* milk, that there is a wide difference in the competition of pure milk, especially in ftie matter of the percen­ tage of button AU milk I* riclier la-fieptem- bor than in Jone, and if vario* in this re- tpect in different eeaaon* in the nme herd or cow. The circumstance* which lead to this are many. The cow that is fleshy gives milk richer in bntter than the cow that i* thin and poor. One that ha* reached her full maturity give* bettor milk than she did before she reached that age ; a cow that is. gaining flesh day by day give* richer milk than a cow that is losing gradually. The csnlition* of the pastures have also much to d> with the qual­ ity of the .production. This condition ia governed in turn by the season. Experience ha* taught me that a cow'* milk very deficient in butter often fattens a jfner calf than that of the first class butter cow. When a man tell* me what. a splendid calf hi* cow always rears, I da not wish to purchase her for a butter cow. A man cannot produce milk profitably for any purpose without feeding his cows lib­ erally with good, sound, highly nutritious food. Tho cow has been likened to a machine It requires a certain amount of food to supply the demand* of liature; all above that amount, which she will take and assimulate will be converted into milk and flesh. Tho herd should be kept warm in winter, and fed and watered with regularity. Their diet should be varied as much as convenience will allow. Early cut hay, shorts, cornmeal and veget­ ables should bs included in the bill of fare, and then we shall be rewarded with milk rich in all the valuable components of the fluid. On the other hand, the herd that i* poorly fed, carelessly housed and cared for, cannot give anything but watery mill;, almost worth­ leu for butter or table.—/. T. Elletcorthin Scien tificJ'armer.

It was impossible for any person at that time torealize ths full niteilfCtd which thi* was being carried on and It Is only now when we find the crop of butter sa very excessive and the crop of cheese short, that this united but foolish move of tho dairyman of the country begins to be fully appreciated, what is to be done to work of thiu large slock of butter ? We answer, open the factories just as soon as there are new milch cows enough to make a cheese a day. Don’t make a pound of butter for this mar­ ket until th* old Block is thoroughly ex­ hausted. New cheese will be in demand this spring at remunerative prices. We therefore urge factorymen to open early. We learn that it the intention of many to open by the first of March ; this is a good move; the earlier tho better. Keep good warm fires in yoar curing room, and market your cheese a* fast as cured. Dairymen, bo as united in this as you were in making butter last fall, and you will help the commission merchant* to work off the surplus butter, and will your­ selves bo bonefitted by the prices you will receive for your cheese.

There aro scores of little jobs which suggest themselves which ought to be dono as well in rainy weather a* in fair weather. Such a date would have up'm it something like tho following : “Clean ont tho cellar ; oil the harness ; mend liarnos* ; grease all tho waggon* ; repair the horse stall*, file the saw* ; grind the tools ; assort the apples ; make kindling wood -, repair the im­ plements ; shell corn.” A hundred other like jobs could be snggosted.

CHAPTER X.—{Continued.) aHwOE sn hour after his departure,Iff.’*, his footsteps resounded in the room overhead, as he paced to and fro, bnt when th* dis­ tant indistinct eaha «f the town clock told'two,—all grew quiet upstaira.In the dining-room tho shaded lamp | burned dimly, and Regina could mo thenntliue of Hamish's form on the sofa, and knew from th* continual turning first on one side then on the other, that tbo oldwoman was awake, though no sound es­ caped her. Engrossed by a pnfonnd yet silent griefthat rendered sleep impossible, Begins lay with her bauds folded over tbo small packetwondeiing whst it epntainod ;—regretting tlmt the condition 8 of the gitt prohibited her opening it for so many long years,—■nd striving to divert herself of a hauutiug * foreboding that she had looked for tho last ’ time on the bright, benignant conntenanccoflbe donor, who was indissolubly linked with the happiest memories of her lonely life.Imagination magnified tho perils of the tedious voyage that included two oceans, and a* if to intensify and blacken the hor­rors of tbo future, all tire fiendish tragedies of Delhi, Meerut and Cswnpore were vivid­ ly revived among tho missionaries to whomMr. Lindsay was hastening. Deeply in­ terested in tho condition of a people whose welfare was so dear to lus heart, she hadeagerly read all the mission reports, and thus imbibed a keen aversion to the Senoys, who had become synonymous with treach­ ery and ingenious atrocity.Is there on inherent affinity betwoen brooding shadows of heart and soul, audthat veil of physical darkness that wrapstbo world, during ths silent reign of night ? Why do sad thoughts like corporeal suffer-ing and disease grow more intense, more tormenting, with the approach of evening’s gloom ? Who has not realized that trials, sorrows, bereavements which ia* daylightwo partly conquer and put aside—rally and triumph—overwhelming ns by the aid ofnight 1 Why are tho sick al Ways: encour­aged, and tho grief-laden rendered more cheerful by the comiogofdawn ? Is theresome physical er chemical foundation for .Fignier's wild dream of reviving buu-wor­ ship by referring all life to the vivifyingrays of the King Star ? Does the mind emit gloomy sombre thonchts nt night, as plants exhale carbonic'ncid ? What subtleconnection exists between a oheerfn! spirit, a id the nniount of oxygen wo inhale in guidon daylight ? Is hops, radiant, warmsunny* hope, oijjy one of those “ beings ■woven of air by light,"-whereof Mclescbott wrote ?To Regina the sad vigil seefnod iator- minable, and soon after the clock struck four, she hoped with inexpressible delight the oeculinriy shrill crowing of her favoritewhite Leghorn ceck, which *ho knew her- nldcd the advent of day. The China geese responded from their corner of the fowl-yard, and amid the reveille of the poultry, Hannah rose, crept stealthily to tho table nnd extinguished the lamp. Intently lis­tening to every movement, Regina felt as­ sured she was dressing rapidly,—and in a few mcments the tremulous motion of t. efloor, and tho carufiilly-gunrded sound of the bolt turned slowly, told her that tho old woman had started to fulfil her prom too,Haring fully determined her own course, the girl lost no time in reflection, but has­tily fastening,her clothes, took her shoes in on. band, the cuno in the other, and limp­ ing to tho glass door, snfily unlocked it,locked tbo outside venuiinn blinds, and rat down on the steps leading to the ganlen. Talling off tho bntednge, she slipped her■lino on the sprained foot, nnd wrapping a light while sliafrl’around her, made hor ray slowly down the walk that wounl to­ ward the church.Unaccustomed to tbs cane, she used it with great difficulty, nnd the instant herwounded foot touched the ground, sharp twinges reins wed the rsraoRstrance that Jind been silent until sho attempted tv walk.A waning moon hung o’er th* troe-tops on the western boundary of the enc’osure.nnd it* wan spectral lustre lit up the church-yard, showing Regina the tali form •of Hannah, who carried a spade «r shortshovel on her shoulder, «u<l bad just pis- rad through th* gate, leaving it open Following as rapidly as she dared in tbo di­rection of the iron railing, the child was only a tow yards in the rear, when the oldwoman stopped sudd only.—then ran for­ ward—and a cry like that of some baffled -wild beast broke th* crystal calm of the morning air.* Th* cuts* of God is upon it! Tbo pop­ lar is gone!* Glidiugolong Regina reached the outerrailing, and creeping behind the broken gratute shaft which sbioMtel her from ob- ■entltion. she peered cautiously arenpd thecomer, and saw that the noble towerin,’ tree had been struck by lightning and fired, Wlictber shivered by electricity, or subse­quently blown down hv the fury of the galsnona ever knew; but It appeared to have l>een twisted oft about two feet above thsground, and in its fall smotaand shattered tlw marble angel, which a few hour* be­ fore had hovered with expanded wingsover a child'* gtave. A wreath of bio* »<n.ko carted «nd-floated from the heartof tlm stamp, showing that th* roots wereburninc, aud <1« iVv and periwinkle so luxuriant on the previous day, ware now a xna*. of asho* ud cinder*.On be* k.M« sank Jlaunah, raking th* Mot CTubcra into • hsap, and at last shebent her gray head almost to the ground. Idfiiug sometbiog on the end of th* spade, aba nUened ■' low wafl of despair: “ Mdted— burnt up 1 I thought it was-din—it must have besu Iradl Esther thscure* of God,—or tbs work of ths devil 1’ She fell back like one smitten with astunning blow, and sob* shook her power­ ful team*.

U pop it Hverni spadsfola of **rthhod bean tfrown, to secure it from deteo-tion'should prying eyes discover tbe exist- Iene* of th* hollow.All that remained was a shapeteas lump of molten ad«l Along tbe east a brood bund of yellowwte rapidly mounting into th* *by. Mid iu the blendsd moonlight of night and day, th* churchyard presented a melancholy■etna of devastation. Tito Spit* and belfry had fallen npon, and fa frenl th* eborch. th* fob, build­ing stood fit* * diamssted v**ral among eh* billowy grave*, that swelled a* a rest lea* *e* nrcmnd its gray weather-beaten■ide*. Hera god ih*r* anetent hradatousa hod bran Blown down oa tbe mound* theyguarded ; *nd one mrtsU* willow in th* eeutr* of a tinster nf graces, bad been tornfrom lb* earth, and faSUnfwoih of roots lifted until Ibej mated agauMt * sten* by th* kofomtt loflnenee of (b« invisible human presence, Hannah liftedand turned bar head. With a scream of superstitious terror, gd** sprang to her feet. Very ghostly the girl certainly appeared, in her snowy mull muslin dress and while shawl, a« she leaned forward *n tlie cane,and looked steadily at the old womar. Her long black hair loosened and disorder­ ed by tossing about all night, hnng overher shoulders aud gave a weird almost supernatural aspect to the blanched and sorrowful young faee, which in thatstrange chill light seemed well nigh as rigid and pallid as a corpse. * Hannah Hifiton F* God have mercy! Who arc you ?’ Hannah seized the spade and brandished it, with hands that shook with terror.* You wicked woman—do you want to kill me ? Put down that spade.* Regina advanced, but the old woman re­treated, still waving th* spade. * Hannah, are yon afraid of me ?’ * Good Lord! Is it you—Regina ?’* Yonr sin makes you a coward. Did you really think me a ghost?’ ‘ It is truj— I am afraid of everythingnow, even of my own shadow, and once, I was brave. But what are you doing hero ?I thought yon were crippled ? What arcyou tracking mo for?' She threw down th* spado, ran forward, and seized the girl’s shoulder, while ascowl of mingkd fear and rage darkened her countenance. ‘ You are watching—trailing me like abloo.lhouud ? Is it any of your business , whore I go ? Suppose I do choose to coma here and say my prayers among the dead,while other folks are sound asleep iu their beds—who has the right to hind*? to* ?’ Don't tell stories, Hannah. If you really 'said your -prayers, you Would never have come here to sell your soul to Satan.* Tightening her clutch, the old woman :shook her, as if sho had been a slender reed, nnd an ashen hue settled upon her , wrinkled features, a* sh* cried in an un- ,naturally shrill quavering voice: * Aha I you were evesdropping yesterday ’ in the church—how I wish to God it hadall blown down on yon 1 And ytm watch- (cd mo—you mean to disgrace mo—to ruin ( mo—to arrest mol Yon do I You shall ]not! I will strangle you first 1’ s* Take your hands off my shoulders, £Hannuh. Do you think yon can scar* me ,with such wild desperate threats ? Iu the (first place, I am not afrai I to die—and in (tho second you know very well yon dare ] not kill me.* Let go my shoulder, you hart me.’i»Very white but foarlnss, tho young face w.is lifted to h;rs, and before those wrath­ ful glittering eyes that Bulled like bluesteel, Hannah quailed. * Will you promise not to betray mo ?’ ‘I will promise nothing, while you threaten me. Sit down, you are shakingnil over as it Jill had an ague. When f camo here I had no intention of betraying you ; I only wanted to prevent you from committing a sin. Arc yon going to hare aspasm ? Do sit down.’ Hannah’s teeth worn chattering violent­ ly, and her trembling limbs seems'l indeedunable to support her. When she sank down on the stone base of the shatt, Re­ gina stood before her, leaning more heavilyupon tho caue. * I heard nil that you said yesterday, yet I was not ‘evesdropping.’ You camo andstood under the window where I sat, nnd if you had looked up you would have seenme. When I learned yon were engaged in a wicked plot, I determined to try to slop you before it was too late. I followed yonhero, hoping that you would give that paper to me, instead of to that*bold bad man ; for though you did very wrong, Ican't believe that you havo a wicked cruel heart.’She paused, but the only response was ndeep groan, and Hannah shrouded her face in her arms.* Hannah, did my mother ever injure you —ever hnrm you in any way?* * Yes—she caused me to steal—and Ishall hat* her as long as I live. I was as honest as an angel, until she cutno that freezing night—so many years ago—andshowed mo by her efforts, hor anxiety to get tiio paper—-how valuable it was. Be- sido, it was on her account that my nephewwent to destruction; and I was sure all the blame and suspicion would fall on her. It seemed so clear that she stole tho paper. Iknew Mr. Hargrove gave hor a copy of it —and I only wanted to sell the paper itself Co the old General in Europe—because Iwas poor, and had not money enough tostop work. I have not hod a happy day since;—my conscience has tormented me. I have carried » mountain of load upon mysoul, day and night—and at last when Fek.; Tame, and I w m bound to get n*T gold —the Lord interfered and took it out ofmy bands. Oh! it is tnr awful thing to shut your eyas and stop you earn and run down a stoep plao* to mrat th* devil who is waiting at the bottom for you—and tofeel yourself suddenly jerked backed by something which you know Almighty Godhas sent to stop you? He sent that lightning to bum up th* paper, aud I fool that His curse will follow me to my grave.'* Nut if yon earnestly repent, and pray for Hi* forgiveness? Hannah raised her gray head, and gazedineredulouely at the pale delicate foc»,— into the violet eye* that watched h«ir withalmost tender compassion? * Ob, child I when our hands are tied, and w* are so h*)pl*t* we can't do anymore mischief,—who believes in our re­ pentance ?’ * 1 do, Hannahand how much moremerciful is God ?’* You don't mean—that you would ever trust me,—ever belisv* in ure again ?*Her band caught the white musllu dress, and h-r haggard, wrinkled face was full of eager breathless supplication. * Ye*, Hannah, I would. I do sot be­lter* you will steal again. Suppose ths lightntag bad struck you as well as ths tree whefe ywi bid the stolen paper,—-what doyou think wnulfl have become of your poor, wicked soul ?

When they reached the little gate; Regina grasped tli* supporun# arm, and a deadlypallor overspread her feature*. * Where are you, Hannah t I cannot The bin* eyas clorad, slm tottered,—andaa Hannah caught and bore her up,—a swift heavy step on tbo gravel caused herto glance over hor shoulder. * What is tho matter, Aunt Hannah ? You look ill and frightened. Is that,—Minnie’s child?' * Hush 1—onr game is all up. For God’ssake, go away until seven o'clock.—then Iwill explain. Don't make a noise, Peieg. , I must get her in the house without wak­ing any one. If Mr. Hargrove should seo us. w« are ruined? As Hannah strode swiftly toward theglass door baring th* slight form iu her stout arms, tbo stranger pressed forward,eagerly scrutinizing the girl’s foe* ; but at this juncture, Haro, burking violently, sprang down the walk, and the intruder hastily retreated to tho churchyard, secur-iug the gate after he passed through. CHAPTER XI. steamer sailed-promptly, on the Thu’1 edav subRequentto Mrs, Lindsay's departure ’from tbe Parsonage, but she bid bien absent ten days, detained by theillness of a friend in Boston. Impatiently her return was anticipated by every member of tbe household, andwhen a telegram announced that she might be exacted on the following morn­ ing. general rejoicing succeeded tho gloomwhich had hung chill and lowering over the diminished family circle. Under Hannah’s fa t /u’ cautious treatment,Regina had sufficiently recovered from the effects of tbo sprain, to walk one* moro VUthont much pain, though sl.astill limpedperceptibly; bnt a nameless, formless fore­ boding of some impending evil,—some baleful influence—some grievous calamityhovering near, rendered hor particularlyanxionj for Mrs. Lindsay's comforting presence. Tho condilion of tbe chnrch, which wasundergoing a comileto renovation, ns well as repairing of the steeple, prevented tbo usual services, and this compulsory restaud leisure seemed singularly opportune for Mr. Hargrove, who had boon quite in­ disposed and feeble for some days. Th*physician ascribed his condition to th* lassitude induced by the excessive heat, and Regina attributed hte pale wearyaspect nnd evident prostration to grief for th* loss of his nephew an 1 adopted son ; bnt Hannah looksd deeper, shook hergrizzled hrad, and 'wished Miss Elis* would com* home? Tho pastor’s eyes which had long resent­ed the exaggerated taxation imposed upon them by years of study, had recentlyrebelled outright, and ho spoke of thonecessity of visiting New York, to consult an euninnnt oculist, who, Mrs. Lindsaywrote, had gon* to Canada, bnt would re­ turn in September, when ho hoped to examine and undertake tbo treatment of her brother's eyes.During Thursday morning, the minister lay upon his library sofa, white Regiuarend aloud for several hours, Lut in th* afternoon, receiving a sntnmous to attend a sick man belonging to his church, bepersisted in walking to n distant part of tho town, to discharge what he considered a clerical obligation. In vain Regina protested, assuring him*, iu-! Iho heat and fatigue would complete- J Iv prostrate liitrt. He only smiled, patted litr head, aud said cheerfully as he put on his hat:* Is tho little girl wiser than her guardian ? And has she not learned that a pastor’s duty kn«ws neither heat norcol J,—neither fatigue, nor bodily weak­ ness ?' * I am so glad Mrs. Lindsay will cometo-morrow. She can keep you at home, and make you tnk* core of yourself?Holding his t-lseve, she followed Irm tothe front door, and detained him a moment, to fasten in the button-hole of hisCoat a tuberose nnd sprig of heliotrope, his favorite flewors. * Thank yon, my dear. You have learn­ed all of Elieo’s pretty petting tricks, and some day you will be, I hope, just such a i.oble. tender-hearted woman. While I amgone, look after the young guinea* ; I have not seen them since yesterday. I shall not stay very long?Ho walked away, and she went out among th* various pats in the poultry yard.It was tat* in August, bnt tbe afternoon was unusually close and warm, and argosies of frail creamy clouds withsaffron shadows seemed becalmed in the still upper air, which was of that peculiar blue that bolokens turbifl ether, and hints nt showers. About sunset, Regina roll'd the largoeasy-chair out on tbe verandah at the west of the library, and placing a table in front of it, busi*d herself innrranginglbe pastor'sevening meal. It consisted of-whito home- mad* lightbread, a pineapple of golden butter, daftly shaped and pointed by herown slender hands.—a glass bowl filled with honey from th* homo hives,—honey that resembled m*’.ted amber in cells ofsnow*,—a tiny pyramid of baked apples, and a goblet of iced milt. Upon a spotless square of damask daintily fringed, sh* placed the supper,rand in the centre a crystal vase filled with beautiful Cloth of Gold and Prince Albert rose*, among which royal crimson andwhite carnations held up thsir statelyheeds, find oxhntod mar Vol! one fragrance. Upon the snowy napkin beside the solitaryplate, she left a Grand Duke jesmiue lying on the heart of a rose-geranium leaf. * Has he some ?' asked Hannah, throw­ ing wide th* Venetian blinds.♦Nofc ^st; bat be must b* her* very soon?* Well, I am going to milk.

'I will try after a while, when I haverested a little. My child you are very good to anticipate my wants. I noticed allyou have done for me, and the flowers are lovely t so deliciously sweet too? Ho opened his eyes, took tho GrandDuke, smelted it, smiled and stroked herhand whieh rested on the arm of his chair. Scarlet plnme* and dashes ot cirrus cloudthat glowed like suorificsl fires upon tbe altar of the west, paled, flickered, died out in ashen gray ; aud a moon mors geld thansilver hnng in alilrntuering splendor arcing tbe cloud ships,—lending a drizzling fringeto their ed«e«,—and making quaint arabesque patterns of gilt embroidery onth* verandah floor, where th* soft light fell through interlacing viuea of woodbine and honeysuckle. With the night came silence,broken only by the subdued plant of the pigeons in tbe neighboring yard, nnd thecooing of a pair of pal ring-doves that sleptiu tbe honevsuckle, and were kept awake by the moonshin* which invaded theirnest, and tempted them to gossip. After awhile a whippoorwill which haunted ihe church-yard elm*, drew gradually nearer,finally settling upon a deodar cedar in the flower garden, whence it poured forth itslonely miterere wail. Mr. Hargrov* sat so still, that Begins hoped'he had fallen oslsep, but very soon'he said : * My dear you need not ftn me? * I hoped that you were sleeping, au'dthat a nap would refresh you. H* took her hand, preraed it gently, and eaid with the grave tenderness peculiar tohim : ‘ What a thought fol good little nurse youare ? Almost ae watchful aud patient as Elise. Have you had your supper. ’All that I want,—some bread and milk.Hero and I ato.our^euppor before you caul*. Shall I bnng your slipp»rR?‘ * Thank you—I believo not, Before longI will go to sleep. Regina, open the organ, and play semetbing eoft and holy,—with ths tremulant. Sing me that dear old‘Protect us through tho coming night,* which my Douglass lores so wall?’ I wish I could, but you know, Sir, it ie a Quirlclt, and beside—I should never get through my part; it reminds mo so pain­fully of tho last time wo all sang it?- Well theu, my little girl something else ; 'Oh that I bad wings like a dove? To-uight I am almost like a weary child,and only need a lullaby to hush mo to sleep. Go, dear, and sing mo to ro.’t?Reluctantly she obeyed, brightened the library lamp, and sat .down before tbo cabinet organ, which bad been brought overto tho parsonage for safe keeping while thechurch was being repaired. As she pulled ouf tho rtops Hannah touched her.‘ Has be finished his supper, ccn I re­ move tbe dishes and table ?' ‘Not yet. He is too tired just now tocat? * Then I'll waif here. To tell tbo truth, I have a queer feeling that scares mo,— makes my flesh creep. While I wasstraining tbe milk just now, n screech-owl flew on tho fop of tho dairy, nnd its awful doath-warning almost froze tho blood in myveins. How I do wish Miss Eliso was here ! I hope it is not a sign of a railroad acci­dent to her,—or that the vessel is fost that carried her boy 1 * II is’i—you superstitious old Hinnah 1I often hear that screech-owl, and it only hunting for mice. Mrs. Lindsay will cometo-morrow-?Her fingers wondered over the keys, and in a sweet pure and remarkably clear voice she sang : ‘Ob that I had wings? Withgreat earnestness and pathos eno rendered the final ‘to b® at rest',—lingering long ontbo ‘Amen? Then she began one of Mozart's sym­ phonies, and from it glided away into favor­ite solectiono from Rossini's -Moise? Once afl 'ut upon the mighty tide of sacredmusic, she drifted on and on, now into nrequiem, now a ‘Gloria? and at last the gran? triumphant strains of the pastor’s fovoru- 'Jubilate’ rolled through the silenthouse, out upon the culm lustrous summer night.Of tbo flight of tiraesha had taken no cog­ nizance, and asshe closed tho organ androse, she heard tho clock striking nino, aud saw that Hannah was nodding in a corner of the sofa.Surprised at tbe lateness of the hour, she stepped out on th* verandah, and approach­ ed Che arm-chair.The tnoon bad euuk so low that its light had been diminished bnt the reflection fromtlio library lamp prevented total d irkuess. Mr. Hargrove had not moved from tho posture in which she had left him, and shesaid very softly : * Are yon asleep ?’ He made no answer, anti unwilling toarouse him she sat down on the step to wait until bo finished his nap. As the moon went down, a light breezesprang from some blue depths of the far west, and began to skim the frail foamy cloud that drifted imperceptibly across tbe star-lit sky ; and to the crystal fingers ofthe dew, tho numerous flowers iu th* gar­ den below yielded a generous tribute of perfume, that blended into a wav* of varied gromas, and rolled to aud fro in the coj!night air. Culm, sweet and holy, tbe night seemed a very benison, dispensing ueace. Watching tho white fire of constellations burning in th* vault abovo her, Reginawondered wether it w*ra a fair night forout at sea,—If the same glittering stellar clusters swung above the deck of the nobl*vessel that had been for many days upon th* oceau.—or if tbe storm fiend held cy­ clone caruh a1 upon th* distant Atlantic? Her thoughts wandered towards thefuture, that terra incognita whieh Mr. Lmlray’s vague words:—• there are trial* ahead of yon?—had peopled with dread yetintangible phantoms, wlt-»«e spectral shs- dows solemaly preragefol, hovered over even th* present. Why was h*r own his­tory a sealed volume,—hor father a mystery, —her mother a wanderer in foreign land* ?From this most unprofitable train of reflection, she was gradually recalled by th* resiles* singular behaviour of her dog.He had been lying near th* table, with hit head on liis paw*, bnt rote, whidefl,— cam* clos* to lus mistroMi and caught hersleet* between his te< th.—Im* usual mod* of attracting her attention. ’ What m it, H»ro ?

An nudefioable horror mad* th* girlspring toward th* chair. Th* sleeper bad not moved, and stooping dv*r, sb* put her band on lira forehead.Th* cold damp touch terrified her, andwith aery of' Hannah 1 O Hannah I' tire darted fat* th* library and seized th* lamp.

In the toil he tightly held the jat> mine, aa when he spoke to.her htxt, andahe shrank from touching those fingers. Finding no change in th* fixed white face, she took off his shoes and rubbed bis feet with mustard, bat no effect encouragedher, and finally she sat praying silently, holding the feet tenderly against her heart. "How long lasted that lonely vigil with the dead, she never knew. Hong desorlsdher. and by degrees she realized the awful truth, that tho arrival of the physician so impatiently expected, would bring no anc-cor. How bitterly site upbraided herself for leaving him a tnomen, even though inobediowce to his wishes. Perhaps he had called, and the organ had drowned bis voice.Hod he died wbile he song, and was his spirit already with God, when she repealed the words,—1* Far sway in the regions ofthe blest 7* When she came on tiptoe and asked “Are you aeletrp I'—was bo in­ deed verily asleep In Jeans ?

Yon can’t do anything for him now," she said, clinging to bis feet,as an attempt was made to lift them from her lap. ’ He must have bnen dead several hours,*answered Dr. Mclvi’.lc. “None but God and the angels know when ho died. I thought he had gone tosleep ; and so indeed bo bud.’ Hannah had spro.vl the alarm while searching for the <loctor, and verv aeon Mr.Hargrove’s personal friends and some of tho members of his congregation thronged tho library, into which tho body of theminister had b-um removed. |to ns CONTINUE D.| ...Call at Morroy’s, before you buy your Furniture as you will save twenty per cent. 75c Japan Tea for 50c at Shrapnell’s.

The Msessmsnt rolls shunld ba properlyand fairly made out, not only with rogar’i to the actual value of the property, but ala > with respect to the bogus vote* which fre­quently get an the list and arc generally not detected until election time. The assessor is not bound to accept the name of every oue who represent* himselito be duly qualified. The law declare* that when the assessor has reasons to suspectthat an applicant ha* no’ a just right to b>- assessed, it shall be liis duty to make roa- » mable inquiries. To prevent negligencean the MseMir's part, another clause make* him liable to fine end imprisonment for putting a name improperly on the roll; forassessing any one toe nigh in order to give him a vote, or too low in order to deprive him of a vole. For years past, generally speaking, the Miessor's work has been negligently done in many eases, in some instances menhave had to do in two months what would take a man of integrity and ability eix months to do legitimately and well, andbeing at the best poorly paid, for the highly important work they are intrusted witli, can we wonder it ia not done satisfactorily ’•All we a*k ia fair play throughout the county. We are on tho eve of a great po­ litical change, and it behoove* individual*and political aMociations to be watchful, to see that every man entitled to a vote hn«i hi* name properly entered, and all attempt*at bogus registration should bo put down, and tb* partie* punished.
