‘48 '«.n’.u,' 0". $911 Upon this island the government of the neighboring province of Nova. Scotia. had built sheds and huts for the succor of the shipwrecked sailor. Pentonville, as he looked around, saw one of these close by, and there he led the shivering forms of the ladies; The one which he found was built strongly to withstand fnrioushurricanes. In it were articles Alas, thev were lost! all in that proud shipâ€"the strong and brave- hearted, the weak and cowardly, all had passed away! A few vestiges of the wreck appeared on the face of the deep, but that was all; and the wind, as they gazed, took to itself a solemn sound, as though it moaned a requiem. “Danna.

Pen~ t0nville gathered some wood, kindled “Peace be Vto them!” murmured Emma’s aunt. “Peace be to the victims of the sea!” Borne onward on the crest of it he held tightly to Emma with one hand, and holding one of the oars in the other, the strong man struck boldly out to reach the shore with his precious treasures. But useless were his efforts. The waves, rolling on, bore him swiftly along. Now mounted on the summit 0t one, he could see the shore which he approached, and again sinking down into the hollows, all would be shut out from view, and the rushing waves be- hind would fall on them to overwhelm them in its depths. As each ‘one rolled over them, he would prepare to rise again; and after the conflict he would cry to Emma, to see if she were alive. The last billow had dashed upon them, and now from the summit of another he saw the beach, upon which this wild wave would throw them. It was smoothe and sandy. “Emma, are you alive?” “Yes, and strong yet,” she replied, courageously; whileo the other answered It was dawn, and the first faint light of morning came to them. As with one impulse, they looked toward the water to see if there were and vestiges of that ship which lately had home herself so gallantly through the ocean waves. “N ow,_then, be strong I” cried Pen- tonville. Winding his arms around them both, he held them with a mighty grasp, and then in the next moment they were thrown far up on the shore. Pentonville cmtched wildly at the root of a. gnarled tree which grew there. The wave retiring drew them with fear- ful force, but the cars were fastened to him, and he held the tree. They were saved! Hurriedly he raised them, and they ran up the low bank, beyond the reach of the water; when with one im- pulse they fell on their knees, and lifted their voices in thankfulness to Heaven. “Good God!” are all lost!” as bravely as ever. BY JAMES DE MILnE. Concluded from last week. There was a rushing, a. gurgling of water in the holdâ€"“Now, now!” shouted Pentonville, as a. huge wave approached, and taking each lady he raised them with Herculean strength, and leaped far out into the bosom of the coming billow! I love the wordsâ€"perhaps because, When I was leaving mother, Standing at last m solemn pause We looked at one another, And Iâ€"I saw in mother’ 3 eyes The love she could not tell meâ€" A love eternal as the skies, Whatever fate befell me; She put her arms about my neck And soothed thepam of leaving, And, though her heart was like to break, She spoke no word of grieving; She let no tear bedim her eye, For fear that might distress me, But, kissing me, she said good-bye And asked our God to bless me. â€"0hicago Daily News.

P) “ If he wishes to reward me, there is one way to do it; there is one reward.” “ What is that, dear George 2” “Do you want to know? I am gazing now upon that reward. You, Emma, you.” “Tell me all about thlS wreck, and this youth who saved you,” said Mr. Randolph, in the evening after their arrival, to his sister. “And you will be alone and penni- less ’4” “ 0 no, I have friends in Boston who can assist me.” “ You know of one, if all others fail. But wait till we arrive there.” “ Emma, you cannot forget me.” “Never, never, my preserver. Oh, what do I not owe to you,'wha.t cause have I to bless you, and my father will thank you, and do all in his power to reward the noble preserver ofvhis only child.” “ We were wrecked on Sable Island. Mr. Pentonville, by means of oars and a life-preserver, brought us to the shore.” “And were all lost 2” “ Every one. The property of Mr. Pentonville was also lost. But about “We will be in Boston by sunrise to-morrow morning, Emma. You will then be at home.” That evening Emma. and Pentonville stood on the‘ deck as before. What things had happened since last they stood there together ! What sufferings in soul! What pangs of bitter sorrow! They had met death in his most terrible shape, yet had not quailed. They had been witnesses of each other’s fortitude. By this time they had entered the boat, which soon arrived at the steam- boat. It was one of the mail ships which touch at Halifax. She was on her way from that port to Boston. and, seeing the fire and the flag, had stopped to take of]? those who might be ashore. “ When were you thrown ashore here, sir ?” said the captain, who had come in the boat. “Last night.” ' “Last night? Whew! What ship, pray 2” “The Hector, of Boston.” And are you all who were saved?” “ All; we alone out of all on board have been preserved. Strange fate!” Pentonville walked down to the shore with the ladies, and arrived there as the boat landed. The sound awakened Pentonville from his slumbers. Starting up, he saw the steamer now coming towards the shore. He ran quickly to the hut. VSuddenly there sounded a loud re- port, the report of a cannon, which reverberated all around. They started and ran to the door, and, turning the corner of the hut, looked out towards the sea. “ Get ready, get ready; We are saved, and a. boat is lowered. We will be taken on board at once." “ We are all ready,” said Emma, smilingly; “ We have no preparation to make.” “ And he is ruined. Ah, how I pity him!” And the gentle girl heaved a. sigh offisympathy. “ A ship I a steamboat!” they cried “We are saved! 0 joy 2” Tears stood in her eyes while she spoke, and in Emma's also a. drop sparkled. “He has lost all his property; he is ruined, Emma.” “Ruined ! How '3” “The captain said he was a mer- chant, and that the cargo was all that he owned in the world.” Pentonvélle left, and going to an eminence he gathered some wood and kindled a great fire. Then he took a long pole, which he saw near the hut, and hoisted his handkerchief as a flag. The hours passed away, and the storm ceased. The sun come out and all was pleasant. Pentonville had sat beneath the shelter of a rock, and overcome with fatigue he yielded to it and fell asleep. All were in quiet slumber. The fire, replenished carefully by Pentonville, burned brightly, and his flag waved on high as before. Mid-day came. The ladies arose, and found their garments dried. Emma sat musinglv by the door, looking out and wondering where her lover was. “Where is Pentonville ?” said her aunt. “I suppose he is watching for ships.” “The noble youth ! the brave youth ! We owe our lives to him, Emma.” a. fire, and then left them. After an hour he returned, and found Emma. dressed 1n some rough clothing, while her own was drying. “My aunt is sTeeping,” said she.- “Oh, George, I owe you my life! You have saved me from a horrible death.” “Thank Heaven! thank Heaven!” murmured George. “ But are you not weary and oold Emma?” 'I‘ . “ I hope not. Many ships pass here continually.” “ Is not the storm abating?” “Yes, quickly. By mid-day it will be warm and pleasant.

'1” THE WATCHMAN, LINDSAY, THURDSAY JULY II, 1889. “Mr. Pentonville, I beg your par- dOn. How do you do ‘2” “But how can you be two persons at the same time 2” “ I am not two persons,” said he, smilingly, taking her hand. " I am, if you please, Lord George Eglinstone, or Mr. Pentonville. You knew me by the latter name. May I hope, sir,” said be, addressing Mr. Randolph, “that you will know me by a. nearer name than either.” Mr. Randolph spoke not, but 'with tears in his eyes pressed the hand of Lord Eglinstone; and then, placing ,the hand at Emma. within his, “'Heairen As to my Lord Eglinstone, he shook warmly the hand of Mr. Randolph, and did not say anything, but looked to- wards Emma, who sat by the table with her head leaning on her hand, looking down. “ Emma,” said be. She started. “ George â€" George Pentonville! Oh, can it be ’1” and Emma suddenly overcame her aversion to noblemen; for she ran toward him, and scarce knowing what she did or where she was, took his hand in hers and cried for joy. “What, vihjr, how, how is this 2” stammergd Mr. Randolph. But his sistei' had started from her chair with an exclamation of wonder as soon as he had entered the room. She spoke not a. word but seemed spell- bound. . “Lord George Eglinstone, welcome. Good Heaven, how like your father. Were he not dead, I should take you for him.” And Mr. Randolph shook his hand warmly. The noble entered. He was a tall man, with dark hair clustering about his head; his eyes were black, his nose Grecian, and altogether his appearance was most striking. And there was an air of frankness and open-heartedness about him which won the heart at once. Emma’s eyes sank to the floor. “I cannot look at him,” said she to her aunt. “Eglinstone,” said the servant, announcing him. “Ha, there he is now,” said her father, starting from his chair as a carriage rolled up to the door. “There he is.” “ \Vait until she sees Elginstone. If he is half as handsome as his father, she cannot resist him.” “ He may be here tomorrow.” The morrow came; Emma. and her aunt sat in the parlor, and Mr. Ran- dolph was there too. Emma’s face was gloomy, and her heart was sad; for since her arrival she had not seen Pentonâ€" ville. Her father had told her all his intentions; and she hated the name of Elginstone. “Well, you may talk on thus, but you must see that it is hard for me, as a wise parent, to break up so good a match; Emma herself, when she grows older, will see the folly of this. Suppose I were to consent. Why, in five years, yes, in two, she would bitterly lament my conductâ€"and justly she might.” “I tell you, brother; she will never consent to be the wife of any but Pen- tonville.” » “ I will tell you the true reason, sister. It is not because I despise Mr. Pentonville, but the fact is that I have intended Emma. for another. Long years ago when in England, I formed a. friendship with Lord Henry Elgin- stone. His son is the man whom I in- tend for Emma. I expect he is already in town. Did you not hear of him in the steamer?” “No; and I would not care to hear of him. What 10rdling can equal the chivalrous, the noble Pentonville ‘3” “When he wooed her he was her equal in wealth. How did he know that he would loose it? If he were poor, he would be too noble to give you an opportunity of saying that he was capable of meanness.” “ Sister, you are enthusiastic. I think I should like to see this geutleman who has won the hearts of both of you so easily,” said the brother, scornfully. “ If he were rich, would you object?" “ I cannot say that I would. But you know that, as a careful parent, I must see that my daughter is made comfortable, and that she does not throw herself away; and as a man, I do not wish to see my property going into the hands of a needy adventurer.” “ Brother, you aré cruel. Why will you speak_ so 2‘: him I have something more to sayâ€"I about him and your @aughter."’ “ About him and my daughter? What? Has anything been going on between them '1 “Yes, during the voyage.” “During the voyage? Sister you should not have permitted it. You should have done your duty better.” “ Was not that my duty ” “No; for I have another destination for Emma; and how can. I fulfil my Wishes if I find that she is already fond of this Mr. Pennington?” “ What? And do you suppose I will perrmt my daughter to give herself away to an gdventuror?” “His name is Pent0nville; and you, with your desire for a. rich connection, will not find his equal anywhere, let me tell you. I honor Emma’s love for him.” There was a. general laugh, in which the Pittsburger joined, when another member of the party said: “If you want crackers to eat you must call for biscuits as long as you’re in England.” “Beg pardon,” said the waiter; “what did you say, sir Z” “Crackers,” replied the Pittsburger. The waiter looked puzzled, but walked off and did not appear again near the table for several minutes. The soup was getting cold, and the Pittsburger called another waiter and sent him after the first with a renewed injunction to bring some crackers. Another minute or two passed and then both waiters re-entered the room with the stately head waiter. They were engaged in earnest conver- sation for another minute. At last the waiter originally sent bashfully ag- proached the Americans and laid besi e the Pittsburger’s plate a pair of silver nut-crackers. . They were'four- in number, all Ameri- cans, and they were having dinner in the gorgeously furnished dining-room of the Hotel Metropole. When the soup was brought the Pittsburger in the party asked the yaiter to bring some crackers. A Pittsburger, writing from London, details a. little experience in that city’s hotel life which seems worth relating, says thngittsburg ADispetch. â€" The briefest sort of an immersion will be sufficient to give each berry the desired coating, of sugar candy. Finally. set the pans on the ice in the refrigerator, and as soon as the fruit is cold it will be ready to eat. Perhaps “ gobble ” would be a more appropriate word, considering the eager- ness With which such strawberries are usually consumed. In very truth they are not rivalled by any other kind of sugar plums, as you Will yourself confess if you try them. Malaga grapes and nuts as well may be treated in the same way. Take some big strawberries, ripe but firm, and hull them. Then mix two cup- fuls of granulated sugar with a little less than one cupful of cold water. Put the mixture on a hot fire and let it boil hard, without stirring, until a spoonful dropped into cold water crystallizes to the brittle point immediately. Now take it off. the fire and pour it into cups, previously warmed in the oven. Dip the strawberries one by one into this hot solution as quickly as possible, flshing‘ them out with forks and laying them on greased tin pans. Ah, how soon Emma’s smiles re- turned. “ But how were you a. merchant?” “ I was not; the cargo belonged to some Liverpool house. The captain thought I was their. partner. I came out in a. ship because I wanted to enjoy myself, and found you, Emma. I took the name of my' mother's family and won you as a simple merchantâ€"plain Mr. Pentonville. May I hope, dearest Emma, that Lord Eglinstone will be as welcome to you “I” to them. At a dinner to Dugmore in Ruatan, reference was made to the pos- sible seizure of the Bay Islands by Great Britain. This reference was favorably received by the English colonists. Senor Lopez naturally considered this manifesta- tion seditious. This accounted for the capture of Captain Dugmore of the “ Rosa- lind.” He arrived in Belize from Ruatan on June 10, and reports that while sleep- ing on the islands he awoke and found himself surrounded by an armed guard. They threatened to shoot him if a gun was fired from the “ Rosalind. ” He was then conducted to the vessel the “ Hon- duranian ” gunboat firing a royal salute of twenty-one guns, and the “ Rosalind” returning the compliment. All the British inhabitants of the islands fled to the main- land, having been charged with conspiracy against the government of President Bogian. It is said that private informa- tion received at Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras, from a secret agent in Lon- don warned the government that Captain Dugmore was acting under orders from the British admiralty to extend the British seizure of territory on the coast to these fertile islands. In the event of the com- pletion of the Nicaragua canal Ruatan will occupy an important strategic naval position, and would also give En gland a needed coaling station. The move was to be made under cover of a local commotion, to be stirred up by the English emigrants sent from Belize for the purpose.’ N ow is the joyous season of the year when, if you are only acquainted with the precious secret of their preparation, you can make for yourself with ten minutes’ work candies more delicious than were ever purchased at the most expensive con- fectioners’.
