His evening calls becamse more freâ€" quent and prolonged as the time passed on ; and as they formed the only broaks in the monotony of our lives, we were not sorry when they grew to be of even daily occurâ€" rence. Gifted with a wonderfully retentive memory, and possessing a large amount of dry wit, our grave friend proved an agreeâ€" ble companion. Though never appearing to exort himself uncomfortably for our entertainment, he would, neverthless, at each visit manage to amuse us by the relaâ€" tion of an interesting anecdote, or, when he could do so without betraying profesâ€" sional confidence, by the repetition of some morsel of local gossip. Regularly, too, each evening before parting, mamma and he would indulge in a few games at backâ€" gammon ; whilst I, at their request, would drown the noise of rattling dice bensath the | but though at first highly delighted, beth with it and the charming scenery by which it was surrounded, we soon found that a | residence in the rural village of Elstonlec was not without its drawbacks. Plewsant as it was during the summer season to ramâ€" bie about in fragrant woods and winding country lanes, or to rake and weed in our own little garden, these recreations pallod I in time; and when the long wintor months | sueceeded, and outdoor life beeame lo«s onâ€" ,J’oynblv, the loneliness and seclusion of the }cplnce oppressed us, and I, at anyrate, learnâ€" ed to consider Woodbine Cottage as by no means a Paradiso, Our all but sole society consisted of the rector and his wife, and' Di. Adair. The latter was a gcntlem:zu( about forty years of age, a bachelor, wellâ€" educated and intelligent, but rather sedate. As the only physician in the neighborhood, he enjoyed an extensive practice, his serâ€" vices being in requisition for miles of the country around our village. Undoubtedly a clover practitioner, and having a gentle and sympathetie nature, the dcetor was a universally esteemed and welcome guest, but it was at Woodbine Cottage that he’ elgected to spend most of his spare time. accordingly reached the ago of scventcon, an event cocured which produced a weleome change in our position. â€"Upon the death of her halfâ€"sisterâ€"a wonlthy widow, who with the cxeeption of her son, Mr. Hugh Fernâ€" ley, had been our only relative in England â€"mazsuag found herself possessed, in addiâ€" tion to the agreeable legney of a fow thouâ€" sand p in We kind frce has fided into a dim memory. Very vividly, however, can I recall my mother‘s overwhelming grief at his loss, and the sad voyage which followed, from India to her native country, England.

Nevertheâ€" less, there stands one cpisode, so strange and fearful, that even at this distance of time I am unable to contemplate it withâ€" out a shidder. . Bofore narrating it, I must introduce myself, and give a Lrief account of my antacedents. The Lord‘s G. M.

No storm so fierce, no waves so high, But He can calm at will.

His eyes were large and dark, and his figure, though small, was finely moulded. Very white and regular teoth displayed themselves when he smiled x spoke, and I noticed also the extreme l We had been at Torquay about two months, when, one evening, happening to be dressod a little earlier than usual,I saunâ€" tered into the drawingâ€"room to await there the ringing of the dinuerâ€"bell. Several gentlemen wore dispersed about the apartâ€" ment, reafng newspapers, or chatting upon politics, and amongst thom was one lady. A glance showed me that this was Lady Griffiths, an especial favoritoe of minc; and seating myself by her side, I was admiring some laceâ€"work upon which she was enâ€" gaged, when the tones of an unfamiliar: voice struck upon my ear. Looking up, L. observed that a stranger sat directly opposâ€" ite us, conversing with poor Herr Eberhard, a young German, who was endenvoring, by a winter in Torquay, to prolong a life, whose certain doom his hollow cheeks and hacking cough too plainly told.

It took me some liltle time to get aceusâ€" tomed to cur new lifo, offoring, as it did, so great a contrast to the stagnant existence, as I now cons‘dered it, which wo had of lats been leading. But I presently began to feel quits at home, and, delighting in society, my gratification daily increasd. â€" In fact, as I repeatediy told mysel, I had ‘ never bofrre felt so happy, and to my exnâ€"| berant spirits were doubtless in a great meaâ€" sure to be attributed the almost miraculous improvement which took place in my zeaith, pying a délightful and commanding situaâ€" ’tion; and the establishment, which was large, and furnished throughout with exâ€" trome clegance, was in every respect woll conducted. _ The season having commenced before our mirival at Torquay, the touse was already wollâ€"flled, and whilst the whole party was social in the extreme, many of the guests to my suprome satisfaction wore young. It did not lesson my contont to find that they were also gay, and that it was customary for the more quiet and cldâ€" erly people to rstive cach evening to one of the public drawingâ€"rooms, whilst the other would rosound with morry laushtor; and| tho mOre obun .. Jl4 Arrived at our destin our residence in a highly ingâ€"house or private h stood in extensive groun pvine a dolishtful and « the prospect of recovered health, but also of some change from our quict and solitary life, â€" Consultations followed as to the best locality for the wintorâ€"quarters, and after a little hesitation between the rival morits of Ventnor and Torquay, decision was given in favor of the latter place. A preliminary bustle of dressmaking and other preparaâ€" Equanimity, however, had not long been restored to our little party, before it was again discomposed by anxiety on account of the state of my health. A severe cold had settled uporn my lu*gs, appetite had ontivrely forszken mo, and day by day I was ‘ gotting paler and thinner. â€" Greatly alarmâ€" ed, mamma nursed me indetatigeably, whilst the doctor‘s kindness and attention were unremitting. . Still there was no improveâ€" ment, and the fear of consumption began to loom like a droal shadow over our horiâ€" zon. . Wiaterapproached, anl my obstinate cough defying al romedics, our medical advisor, though with evidont roluctancee, expressed his opinion that it would be adâ€" visable for me to spend it in a wnrmex" climate. Mamma, of course, at ones reâ€"| solved to foll sw his recommendation, which } I hailed with pleasure. as not only affordin@ | rearned to regard the good docior rather in the light of a father, and could not now feel for him a warmer sentiment. For three days this unfâ€"rtunate contretemps distarbed the pleasant relationship which had subsistâ€" ed between us; but upon the fourth, Dr. Adair reappeared at the house. There was perhaps an additional shade of gravity disâ€" cornible in his demornour for some time afterwards, but the offer was not again alâ€" luded to, and by degrees we foll into our former unconstrained imanner of interâ€" One evening, some $wo years after our settlement in Elstonlee, I had, I think, been playing with rather more taste and pathos than usual, and the doetor had takâ€" en his usual position, when, happening to }glance upwards, I defectedâ€" an expression upon his face, which eaused me quickly to avert my own, and which broughtthe warm blood rushing in & torrent over check and brow. _ It was the suddennessof the revelaâ€" tion which had broken upon me, howover, and not any pleasure that Iderived from it, which made my heart palpitate so rapidly as I continued the melody. â€" Until that inâ€" ; stant, I had never conceived such a thing‘ as possible, yet that one glazrce had sufficed to convinee me that the elderly physician was my lover, â€" Had I needed further assurâ€" ance of the fact, it was forthcoming, for, upon the following day, I received from him an offer of marriage. This, though with much distress on his account, I was obliged to decline, for, though my estcem ‘ and admiation for him were great, I had learned to regard the good doctor rather in | sweeter sounds ot Handel‘s waterâ€"music, Bach‘s symphonies, or Beethoven‘s sonatas, Dr. Adair was prssionately fond of music $ and not unfrequently, at the close of a game, he would leave mamma‘s .side, and lean for a few mements over the back of my chair, silently watéhing my fingers as they strayed over the keys of the piano. tination, we took u ily fasLhionable board hotel, Albyn Ha nds of its own, occu ic {ey ysd a Cing DX hes.

Knowing tlat he had been recommended to travel, and believing that this would be the most efficacious remedy for his indisposiâ€" tion, mamma and I endeavored to persuade him to lseave Torquay at onee for the contiâ€" nent, more especially as we were oursclves apon the point of returning to Westmoreâ€" land. But to this proposition he could not be induced to listen, exceyt on one condition and that was, that I should accompany him as his wife. And so persistently and unreâ€" mittingly, when this idea had once taken fposseuion of his mind, did he urge that our marriage should take place at onee, that mamma at last gave in, and passing over to his side, expressed her cpinion that Herâ€" bart‘s proposed journey to the continent might just as well be our weddingâ€"trip. Against these united forces, there was, 0‘ course, no reason for my hoiding out, and boi"m longl E.hz‘u!' given a not very relactâ€" The headaches, from which he had before suffered at but rare intervals, now bocame | it seemod to me that a subtle change passed over Mr. St. Julien‘s frc0o whenever his esâ€" tates formed the subject of conversation, and that his dark eyes, usuaily so calm and intelligont, took a different expression, and ’ wandered from one object to another with [ a vagne kind of uneasiness. â€" This peculiarâ€" ity did not, so far as I cou‘d porecive, atâ€" tract mamma‘s observations; but, convineed that it was not altogethor imagination upon my part, and attributing it to the cause I have montioned, I quistly resolved that, so soon as we wore married, I would persuads Mr. St. Julien to dispose of some of these estates, and thus to lessen his care. My determination upon this point strengthoned when I fowad that, whilst I was m;self botâ€" ter than I had ever beon in my life, poor Herbert‘s health declined rather than otherâ€" ‘ wise from the time of our engagement. theo neighborhood of Cambridge, where hc had ahouse; but that, having been seriousâ€" ly ill, and suffering still from occasional seâ€" vere headaches, and genoral d obllity, he had | beon recommended to travel. He had not, ]‘hc said, intended to remamin at Torquay | longer than a week, as he was merly takâ€" | ing the place on his way to Italy ; and had l it not been for the "swoot cause" of his change of plan, he would now have been at his estate upon Lake Como. The montion of this latter particular brings me to notice the only thing which | occasioned me any uncasiness with regard l to my fature prospocts; that was, that, from all I could gather, my intendod husâ€" ’ band was aman of enormous wealth; from time to time he would mention by name ‘ ‘somc castle, property, or estate belonging ‘ to him, until it appeared to me that ho lhind | possessions in almost every Eqropoan counâ€" try. Thesepossessions I presently learned to regard with positive dislike, porceiving, as I could not fail to do, that ther esponsi« bility of wealth, aud the care of so fmuch landed property, was a source of much solicitudeto my lovor. Indeed, as I thought, he allowed this anxiety to become oppressâ€" ive; for although it would have been diffiâ€" cult to have described in what it consisted, | _ That evening was but the prototype of | those whichfollowed; Mr. St. Julien contiâ€" | nued, as he had begun, to select me as the principal object of his attentions, and as our intimacy increased, I discovered that ho | added to his other advantages that of being: an accomplished scholar. How happy I ‘ was, as day by day our friendship deepened, and the conviction forced itself upon me, | that Herbert St. Julien was falling in love ’ with me! It was but slowly, indeod, that I would allow myself to believe the fact, for | it apposred to me too delightful to be true. | Neverthcless, it was so. He loved me with | an ardor and devotion equal to that which |I bestowed upon Lim in return; and in litâ€" | tlo more than six weeks from the day I had | first mot him, Herbert St. Julien and I k were fiancee. Reicicing in my joy, mamma readily gave her consent to the betrothal, ! and expressed perfect satisfactisn with the | account Mr. St. Julien had given of himsel{. This was, briefly, that, with the exception of a sisterâ€"inâ€"law, he had no relation in the ‘world; that he had latterly been living in l TORONTO modated with a seat next to my own; and my satisfaction was fartherincreased when, during dinner, I found his attention dirceted exclusively to myself; and so interesting did his conversation prove, that the hour of dinner, usually so tiresome, passed but too rapidly, There was no dancing that evenâ€" ing. â€" Mr. St. Julienâ€"that, I had ascertainâ€" ed, was the name of my new acquaintance â€"was my partner in a game at whist, and in spite of the superior attractions of other girls by whom we were surrounded, he still kept his place by my side when it was finished. ‘ ing her toilet, and as I waited until she made her appearance, we were the last to enter the diningâ€"room. Upon reaching my usual place at the fableâ€"d‘hote, I could not help fecling a sensation of pleasure on perâ€" ceiving that the fresh arrival had been accoâ€" whiteness and delicacy of his hand, my atâ€" tention being drawn to it by the incessant movement of the long fingers as they played with his watchâ€"chain. Nover before had I been so singularly impressed as I was by this gentleman, and again and again I found my eyes wandering to his face, attracted by a peculiar style of beauty, that seemed abâ€" solutely to fascinate me. But at length, having onece or twice encountered his glance, I felt my behavior to be anything but femiâ€" nine; so I turned to Lady Grifiiths, and strove to interest myself in her work. Mamma was late thatâ€"evening in performâ€" (ta ns coxtinus».) should take $1 per year in Advance. r The majority of thse who are put off the trains are either bad characters or are in a state of intoxicition, and those who live near the track are thus liable to be exposed to the violence of these characters. It is no particular punishment eithor, for them to be put off a train, as they can walk to the next station and jump aboard the first train that comes in, and continue their journey till they are put off again.â€"Orangeâ€" vile A Tvertiser, __ If the law was so amended as to mauke it compulsory for a Conductor to take the passenger to the next Station, and there have him put under arrest and punished by fine or imprisonment, it would not only prevent such lamentable rccidents as this, but would tend to put a stop to the practice of stealing a free ride on the cars. We think some amendments might be made in tho present Railway Act which regulates the manner in which Conductors | shall deal with passongers who refuse to !pny their fare, The lew upon which Conductor Townâ€" send acted says that "A passenger refusing to pay his fare or baggage the Conductor may put him off the train at the nearost stopping place or the nearest dwelling Louse as tho Conductor selects, the train being stopped, and the Conductor using no unnecessary viclence." The Corductor appears to have used no viclencs, and he says he was not aware McDougall was intoxicated, and that no one offered !> pay ‘ his fare unt! after the train had started. said Donald McDougal!] came to his death from being put off N6. 7 train by Conductor Townsend for refusing to pay his fare, being drunk at the time, and that he was struck by No. 2 train at Melville Bridge going north on Saturday evening Fobruary 24th, and we consider the Conductor should have broug).t him to A‘ton Station." The inquest on the body of Donald Moâ€" Dougall who was found dead under Melville Bridge on the 26th was concluded at Alton lact Saturday. Considerable excitemoent prevailed and a large number of people were present anxiously watching the proceedings and waiting for the result. About 16 or 18 witnessos were examined, and the evidence was quite clear. After a lengthy charge from tae Coroner Dr.Riddall of Orangeville, the jury retired to consider the evidence and returned in about half an hour with the following verdict, "That the said Donald McDouga!l came to his death In the interests of the public and of the I railways also thisis a wise decision, though ’ it is one which will have to beacted on with ‘ wisdomn and moderation. Solongas railway companies are reasonable in their doings they are notlikely to be interfered with, and the very fact that they can be interfored with will go a great way to keep them modcrate in their terms and considerate and courteous in their treatment of the community, â€" This ruling substantially justifies the Grangers in their movement, and secures for them an unquostionable triumph.â€"Globe. \ | _ Many of our reacers aay not know what | is meant by the * Cases." â€" They | are appoals which have t some time past | been before the Bupremé@ Court of the Unitâ€" |ed Stutes against certsin enactments of | State Logislatures in t e Wost made at the | instances of the Grangers, for the purpose ' aw changes of the railways | for frei * sa; of the owners . amf“ym ~Rhose {enmetments wore based on the prineiple |that all such corporations as the public |have a direct interest in, and which may | have secured a virtual monoply ofthe tranâ€" ! sport business in large districts from special } charters having been granted, are undor | the control of the State Legislatures, so that at any time these bodies can pass ‘ measures regulating the charges to be made | by them and forbidding them making any| | arrangements which discriminate unfavorâ€" | ably against particular localities. By this legislation a maximum can be fixed both : for frgi;ht and passage, I!.‘\..Id no railway is permitied to refuse business offered on | these terms. The sume thing with the !wurehousiug of grain. Against this legisâ€" |lation the Railway Companies appealed to ;the Supreme Court of the United States, | alleging that it was witra vires and unconâ€" ' stitutional. ‘The decision has now been | givenâ€"a decision from which there is no ‘ appealâ€"and it is to the effect that the legâ€" {islation is c »mpetent, and that it must | stand,. This is a ruling of vast importance. It settlesthe point, beyond all controversy that each State is Smpreme within its own territory in regulating internal trafie and in providing that railway charges shall be what the State by its ropresentatives may deem "reasonable," wlile no advantage shall be taken of placos where thore are no rival roads, so as to levy oxtra and disâ€" criminating charges upon such localities. In short, it is declared to be United States law that the larger corporation always conâ€" trois the less, and that no chm tored comâ€" pany can plead the wording of its charter as giving it power to overcharge the public and nogleet the service for which it was called into existence. It is sottled that no public company whatever has a right to fix its own charges, and cavaliorly give its customers the alternative of complying with these terms or going without the serâ€" vice, The charges must be © reasonablo "3 and of what is "reasonsble" the Local Legislatures, not the managers of railway companies or grain warchouses, are to be judges and arbitors.
