Ho dropped off to sleep in the mi 1st of this jumble of half meditation, nnd was troubled no more. Ho slept tooheavily to frame thoughts into dr«ams— ho left all dreams to tho feverish father, in I lie room where tho curtains where bang­ing before the door, as before tbo temple of some mystery. Tom had nothing on bis mind to trouble his rest, and though poor,Tom's life bad been a long series of mis­ takes, there was no rust eating out of the t heart of thing*, and no dark shadow of' man's sin cast back along the path by I which ba had found his wav home. • Hold bard, Ribin,' interrupted Tom ; * I have said Mis* Dxgnell must not bo subject of discnsiion between us.

Mr. Hilderbrandt flung his anris wide,and executed A jritrip upon the sands in hi' excitompnt;and the dog immediately jumpedalso,and with hia capacious jaws within aninch of hie hand. ‘Down, Cabbage!’ shouted Tom. ‘Ex­cuse the animal, Mr. Hilderbrandt, bnt he thinks you are playing with him.* Mr. Hilderbrandtbecame calmer and paler.4 I nover play with dogs.

Very peaceful, the home storms all gone, now that tho angry frther wn< lockedaway from his family. But within his own heart nt least, Torn could own it to himself, if to no one else, there was an inner senseof unrest, a lurking consciousness that this was not the end of it. There was something more—Heavenknowjwhat—to come. His querulous mother thought so, nnd so did be; the mi’.hirwlio was never happy, or cared to see other people nt rest; who was never satisfied, not even with tho engagement of her youngerson to her husband’s niece.The marriage of cousins was always a mistake, she bad observed, and this was an­ other error, of course. If her health badbean strung enough, she would have urged a protest against it, but she was a merecipher iu the house, and no one studied her ! Aud bo this was not tho end of it, ebc thought, nnd bo her son Tom, who did notalways indorse bis mother's opinion, thought so too. Perhaps the end Was to bo a great­er happiness than this, thought Tom also, for Ursula Dagnell loved him very ranch, and spoiled him by her evidence of attic- lion.Sumo five weeks after their solemn troth plight on a dark, dull day io March, Tom Dagnoll Betout for his walk alone. Ursulacould not tccompany him early in the morning, and bis brother Marcus, who had been lateloy disposed to bo companionable,nnd take long contilulionals with Tom for hisown liver’s sntco, by express order of the family physician, had been a week iuBirmingham, paying court to the daught­ er ef tho house of Oliver. Tom Dagnell was not sorry to ba alonebe was in the mood for his own company, and for nothing else save bis own evra- pany,unless a huge mastiff, with which hobad fraternized, lately, from the stable­ yard, may bo taken into account, and this snixial trotted on by bis side aa heavy andthoughtful as himself. Turn wae not long to be without a companion that morning, however—he bad proposed an idea, butFate had disposed uf it. Down the slop* that led to the sea, a thin,snare gentleman,with black beady eyes, and with a sin-ill black mustache and pointed beard, came , hurrying after him, reached his side, took 'off hia hat by way of salution, and ran Jo him a low bow.4 Mr. Thomas Dagnoll, I believe,’ he * said, with a strange foreign accent. * If I am wrong, I ask ten thousand pardons ;if I am right, you will excuse the liberty 1 , have taken in addressing you.’ Tom looked at tho speaker, who was astranger to him. he was sure, and said, ' 4 Quito right I am Thomas D.ignell.*4 1 rejoice that I have found you.

The man at bls side was evidently a foreigner, and foreign­ ers, on the whole, had been kind aud court­eous to him in thn days of his pilgrimage. Ho supposed their was a pitiable story to bear, and money to give away. He couldafford to give money away now ; but h* wished the man would regain his breath, let loose hrs oomplsiut, receive his douceur,and be gone.

OCn Free Trade Cotenw, were highly exercised at the increased tariff on paper and printing material, but wo haveabnn-- dant practical proof that printing paper has not gone up in price in Canada ini consequence of the National Policy. It is also a fact that the largest ituportcis of type, Messrs. Miller A Richards, are sel­ ling at their “ old prices.” And now we have a circular letter from J. J. Smith <£• (Jo, ink manufacturers, Toronto, an­ nouncing a reduction in the prices of printer's ink. So that in the articles of paper, type and ink printers are not worse off, but something belter than be- f Some of ortf’ over-xealous Gritty ex­ changes, in their endeavors to prove that the N. P. was a detriment to the country, stated that thn oat-mcal mill at Tilson- burg had been obliged to shut down in consequence of the increased tariff. The following paragraph from-fas Liberal of that town, a free trade;jonrnal, is a suffi­ cient contradiction. It says “ Mr. til Ison has closet!‘bisoat mill for a short time while repairs are being made on it. The N. P. gels more credit than it do- nerves from its friends and is blamed for more than it should be by those who op­ posed it The N. P. had nothing to do with1 the closing of the mill in this case." HIGHER WAGES. To tb« Editor at Ilia Otfonl TitbuM Deam Sir.—Th* workmen in th* foundries of Messrs. Copp Bros, and Stewart A Co., Hamilton, have been advised that ou the 19th inst. their wages Will be increased. These foundries, it mint be supposed, have to use coal and iron, and are in the same boat with the Momi-s. Noxon Bros. Manufacturing Co. nnd Messrs. Thos. Brown A Co. of this town, so far as tho National Policy is concernedi Then how is it our workingmen are forced' tor receive reduced wages, while those io Hamilton are to receive raised ones ! Neither Nr. Noxon's circular to his men nor the apologist in the Chroniele answers the question l>y any meaur. The men's wages were cut down in this town to raise a hostile feeling against tbe N. P. and- the present Government, and por- sibly, in addition, a love of greed, and not at all, as tbe “cutters'1 tried to show, or. account oi tbe N. P. But the hostile feeling has como homo to roost against the men’s employer*, and not the Government and tariff The game which has been played was as trant- parent as glass, and though tho men may suf­ fer fot a time there is some little satisfaction in knowing that times will gradually get bet­ ter nnd men receive living wages for their work, tinder a systematic, capable and willing Government, notwithstanding the paltry gajics played by employers who esteem Grit politics of more value than the men through whom they build up their fortunes. Yours truly, Workinomax. [Wc may say in addition to the remarks ot onr correspondent, that Messrs. Burrow, Stuart A Milne have already raised their men’s wages, and E, & C. Gurney have given notice to their men of an increase in their wages. Both of these firms also belong to Hamilton.--Editor.] For political purposes some Grit man­ ufacturers have annoqnccd an advance of $10 on reaping nnd mowing machines and others have announced that they have been comjielled to reduce the wages of their working men in order to make up tho loss they sustained by the in­ creased tariff. This is a shameful fraud. An exchange says :—“ Tho increased cost of tho material used in the manufac­ ture of such machines is about §1.30, whilo tho additional duty on imported machines gives tho market so completely to the Canadian makers that the likeli­ hood is that prices will como down in­ stead of gaing up. As an illustration of this it may bo mentioned that a firm in the city of London has just received an order for three hundred reapers and mowers for use in Manitoba, which under the Grit policy of letting things take their chance would have been sent in from St. Paul. Terrible Explosion At Stratford. TWO MEN BLOWN TO ATOMS. SEVERAL SEVERELY INJURED. 100 Railway Cars and Freight Shed Demolished. It IS impossible not to neo that the opinion of Parliament is overwhelmingly against the retention of the Insolvent law. The carrying of Mr. Berchard’s bill for the unconditional repeal of the law at midnight, by a majority so largo and so confident, puts an end to all useless discussion. What is written is written, and what is done is done. We do not think it bos been wisely done, but it has at least been done hr the onlv constitutional body capable of doing it. Some Lints have been thrown out that the Senate will refuse to recog­ nize the act of the Commons as the act cf the people, and will throw out the bill. We do not think this will be the case, and we do not think the Senate would be wise in rejecting the oft expressed opinion of the Commons. The best hope of the country is that Mr. Hessen’s asser­ tion may turn ont to be true, and that we have reached the end cf business disaster in Canada. , If we have, a greater disas­ ter than ever will have been averted. If we have not, we for our part shall be pleased to find ourselves greatly dixnp- jointed in onr estimate of the unwisdom of this latest legislation. But it is too late for reproach or resentment The Parliament of Canada basin effect spoken and it would not bo wise to do other than accept its derision and hope for the best from its act It has in all other.matters been * prudent, patient and patriotic Parliament, and we shall hardly bo con­ sidered inconsistent if we express a hope that its judgment on this matter hae been better than ours.—Mail.

This is correct, as tbo high rate formerly charged practically prohibited anything <>f the kiud from visiting our town, and as our young people must nnd will have amusement of sonio kiud tho practice heretofore has been to visit some neighbor­ ing town er city on such occasions, con­ sequently sponding their Lose change away from home.

A feud hns exis­ted fur soinu limo between the parties, owing to an article published in tho Item concerning tho character of Feigason, and tbo two men engaged in several quar­ rels previously, and it is believed this assault was to pay up the grudge.—St.Thomas Times. Large congregations were in attendance at Divine service at St. James (Episcopal) church on Snuday last, the occasion being a visit from His Lordship the Bishop of Huron to this parish. In the morning the Rev. E. M. Bland, Rector, read the prayers and session*, His Lordship leading in lhe .Anti-Communion service, after which lhe reverend prolate preached a most excellent and practical sermon on the mission and solf-sacrificiug love of Christ. After the sermon tho rite of Holy Com­munion was administered by His Lordship, assisted by the Rector, a largo number participating in tbo blessed sacrament. In tbo evening, long before the hour for tho coiMinencement of service, tho church was filled with one of the largest congrega­tions which have ever assembled in St. Janies’ church. The number presentcould not have been Icls than from 706 to 960 people, quite a number from other congre­ gations being in attendance. In additionto His Lordship,the Bishop and tbo Rector, the Rev. Win. Daunt, M. A., Rural Dean of Thamcsford, wus in attendance, nndassisted iu tho interesting ceremony. A short time before tbo clergy entered the church the candidates for confirmation, tothe number of thirty-five, tho young ladies being nearly nil dressed in white, took their places iu the front pews.The Rector road the evening prnyera nnd the lessons, and after tho singing uf the first hymn the rite of confirmation was ad­ ministered by His Lordship tho Bishop, assisted by the Rev. Wm. Daunt, Rural Dean. On the candidates being presentedthe Bishop administered to them a fow words of kind and fatherly advice, remind­ ing them of tho very important step whichthey were about to take, nud warning them not to make -the profession uultss they were fully prepared to live up to it.The spectacle presented of tbo candi­ dates kneeling before the altar after tho laying on of bauds had been adminis­tered nnd white the diviuo blessing was being implored was most solemn and im­ pressive. and will ne donbt long bo held inremembrance by tho largo number who witnessed the interesting ceremony. After tho administration of tho solemn rite His Lordship ascended the pulpit anddelivered a very interesting disconreo on brotherly Christian love, pointing to our blessed Saviour as tbo example, nnd im­ ploring not only those who bad just made a public profession of their belief, but ofall who desired everlasting salvatinn to rest their faith in that blessed Sevinnr, whose love for mankind caused him to Iny down His pteciuus life as a propiciuliou for their *iua. Methodist Church .Hcctiuz. Tbo meetings of the Educational Board of lhe Methodist Chureb of Canada, Lou­ don Conference, were held last week in tbo King Street Church. The Rev.

Williams of Hamilton, James Griy of Fort Dover, Dr. J. A. Williams of Stratford, nnd Dr. Sanderson of London, The above named gentlemen were assigned appropriate topics which were ably discussed. The president of tho conference, Rev. E. B. Ryektunn, M. A., of Guelph, presiding. A great deal of contiexional enthusiasm appears togather at tliesc church examinations. The young men, who nro probationers in the ministry, acquitted themselves nobly in th*ir answers to the printed questions with which they were furnished, nnd w< re publicly presented with thoir certificateswhich thev had merited. The work of passing this Board is becoming, they say, more difficult every year, and many of thequestions given would try tho knowledge and mental power ot tunny who pass fur eminent scholar*. Wo wish these youngmen micci *h in their work, and, no doubt, if they adhere to the principles uf an open Bible and the general dissemination ofinfi.rinatten, there is a career of great use­ fulness before them.

To Can Bl ackberries, Ac.: For pre­ serving fruit of all kinds, we think glass jars preferable to tin and theso jars with u glass top, rubber band and a screw-ring have given with us, the best satisfaction. Fill thecans with perfect fruit, sprinkled with sugar in the proportion of one-half pound of stignr to a |>ound of berries ;lay the glass covers on and place on straw or broken plates in a wash-boiler of luke­ warm water. The water should come within an inch or two of the top of the cans Letcomctoa boil, note the time and boil twenty minutes. Draw to the back of the stove; take out tho cans and if tho berries be not covered withtheir own juice, pour in a little diluted sirup ofsugar and water and fill them to the very rim ; wipe the top of the can perfectly dry, put the rubber in place and screw on the ring as tightly as pos­ sible. Screw down again and again as the cans cool, causing contraction of the glass. Some prefer to cook their fruit in a porcelain kettle with sugar added in the pro]»ortiou of one-fourth or one-half pound to a pound of fruit. There nre several ways for preparing glass cans for hot fruit. The jars mny be filk-d with cohl water aud’grnduully heated or placetl empty inn cool oven and in that way. heated. Again, ninny nre suc­cessful and never break or crack a jar, by simply placing it on a towel wrung out of cold water and wrapped closely about, so as to exclude tho air. a silver spoon insitleand fill.

VOLTAIC ELECTRIC Place A Spring Elopement, lie was poor ; she was young ; her parents were sensible. lie was forbid­ den to enter the house and she to leave it Her chamber was in the second story and underneath the window was a gra,>e- arbor or nick. At the hour appointed for love’s adventure he made the pre­ concerted signal from a shady corner of the street and she answered it. She bail a change of clothing safely stowed away in a valise which stfe hud taimwed from her brother without his knowledge. She ■pened the window and lowered the valise to the ground. Then ciawling out of the window anti, straddling one of the rafters of the grape-rack, she crept •town to the post and thence, ns it w ere, shinned it for the ground. Everything 'oeked auspicious, and they were in great glee, when to her horror she happened to observe that she bad on a pair of obi rubbers instead of her shoes, which she had taken off in her room, and had fir- gotten to throw out upon the'grass. This was a sad state of affairs, os it wyuld not look well fora young lady to go travel­ ling among strangers with a pair of nibtiers, and nothing else in the form of shoe- k-nthrr ; and besides, as it was damp ami cold, lur health would be endangered. Just what to do greatly distressed their ardent young hearts. A pro]x»ition that he should climb np to the room and get the shoes was not favorable entertain­ ed by the dashing young man ; but while they were discussing it their pretty little selieme suddenly collapsed. The big brother turned up unexpectedly nt tin- front gate. The girl set down on the door-step and burst into tears, anti her lover disappeared over lhe fence with uncommon agility. There was a domestic tableau in the parlor and the young lady was sent to bed. Dyspepsia ant] Indigestion. Ague and Liver Pains. Bilious Colic.
