I was now in no hurry to be off; I wanted to hear the Captain’s relation. Besides, it was only a. few minutes past one o’clock, and the long summer afternoon was before me. My heart fluttered under my gay vest like a bird in the hand, as the Captain sat wiping away a light perspiration from‘ his forehead, and smoothing his iron- gmy hair in silence. A great elm tree stood near the open window, and all its pendent leaves were trembling in the still summer air, and listening. The confused tapping and clicking of the workmen’s tools in the outer room, seemed faint and far away. I fanned myself with my Panama until I began to grow warm, and then desisted. l “Charles, 'why do yo’ ask me ‘.’ I didn’t mean ever to speak of this. Your father knows all about it. Did /w nev- er tell yo“? He didn’t ,- well, I will. Here’s the shopâ€"«come in.” He hesitated. He had grown very Dale, and a great struggle worked be- neath his fine, rude features. His lip quivered as he spoke. “It’s a long story, Charley,” he began at last, ‘but I’ll make it a short one Listen, boy. Fifteen year ago, I was skipper of the brig Ann Arbox That’s the vess’l I told yo’ was wracked off the Isles of Shoalsâ€"d’yo’ remember? “Yes, Captain; the llimberman you spoke of.” “Captain, said I, “will you tell me why you entertain so bad an opinion 9f Mr. Phillips?

Yes, sir ; Squire Phill- ips was the owner-«that was one of his ventures, and I was Cap’n of the brig. Mark yo’, Charles, Squire Phillips was a. rich merchant even then 5 he was wuth full twenty thousand dollarsâ€"â€" he’s taxed for seventv thousand now. I was nothing but a poor seaman, ser- vin’ his interest, and keepin’ my family ab0ve water with my pay. Frank and May were two and five year old babies. Young Turly wasn’t born. One afore that time, and one senco, of our child- ren, we laid clown sorrowful in Lynn churchyard. Hard times were they, ‘m’urnful with us, but they’re gone. Squire Phillips did all he could to make ’em harder. His face glowed, and his firm lip trembled, but; there was grief in his passion. I could not account for this strong aversion to the elder Phiilips. I had been long aware of it, and I knew it lay at the base of his opposi- tion to the intimacy between May and Gervayse, but I had never been able to discover its motive. I was determined to discover it now. “Entipathy I’ve nonâ€"Jeactways for Vayse,” he broke in with nervous energ ; “but look here, Charlesâ€"I see through yof, and I don't dislike yo’ for’t It’s naterai for yo’ to be spokesman for your friend. But hark yo’, no son of that family shall ever be husband to my darter, and if my word’s law, May Mar tin shall be took to her grave afore she treads up the church-aisle with Genvayse Phillips. It’s said and done. Charles, he’s your friendâ€"tell him ”act. I don’t dislike la)», and my sperit’s sorely griev- ed for May 5 but it’s fixed, and there’s the end of on’t.“ ‘ “I’ll tell yo’ how. That vess’l, in 3.81 mad a gale as ever blew, lost her fo’mast ‘ and was thrown up on the rocks of \Vhite Island, where she lay with her hull beatin’ the stones, and the awful surge breaking’ over us. .There Was a light-house, yo’ know, on that island, and fearful it was in the h0w1iu’ gale 1 ~and. the black night to lie right under l the dim light of the beacouojest bright enough to show us our perilous state-â€" and the brig goin’ to pieces, and we grapled to the riggin’.

But he i wished me all manner of sugcess in my ‘ new occupation, and said he'd be glad to do enny thing‘ for me if I ‘wanted it. Well, at lastI spoke about a set- tlement, and he jumped up and said he was ready, and said he was at my ser- vice. His books told how the account stood in a few minutes. There was a clear balance in my favor of twelVe hun- dred dollars. Squire Phillips looked a-kinder thoughtful as} made out my bill for that amount, and reseated it. ‘Captain‘Martin’ says'he‘,’ " I owe you a larger sum than 1 expected.

The progressed metallurgy makes the construction possible of an immense bridge, thirty kilometers long, with a platform at the height of fifty Meta above the sea. at full tide, and supported by piles at distances of 500 meters. The height gllowed {or the bridge over the channel would allow large steamers and sailing vee- selsto pas freely. It would Support four railway lines, besides a road for W and footpaths.

The bridge will cos‘ 800,000,000 francs, its metallic weight will amount to 9,000,000 tons, and it might be constructed in six years. The scheme will shortly be submitted for exam!- nnticn to an international technical commit- tee. When this examination has been com- pleted, the Channel Bridge society will apply for uconcession to the French and English governments, from which it will ask for no subsidy. Under these conditions the con- cession might be easily granted and the work immediately begun. , In a. few years the commerce of the two nations would benefit. from the simplifimtiou introduced into their relations by the execution of a work which might be considered as one of the most im- portant of the eentury.â€"Paris Temps.

She had membranous croup, and while the mother, from sheer exhaustion, had lain down for a few moments’ rest, the father sat: by the child. The hard, difficult breaflxing of the little one, growing fainter and hintor as the throat clogged up, was torture to the father. Everything in the way of emetic- hndbeen used, but. without eflect, but sud- denly an idea struck the nearly distracted father. He remembered how deathly sick he was the first time he chewed. tobacco, and having a. cud in his mouth, without thinking twice he opened the child’s mouth andphced the tobacco in.

It came, and quicker than he could have hoped. There was a sudden convulsive movement and the poor little thing was nearly doubled for an instant, and seemed to writhe in agOny when, throwing herself for- ward, there shot from her throat a. chunk of almost solid phlegm at: least two inches long and having through it a. passage no larger than a. small lead pencil.
