The wife of Shun“ Tale cum out to hang up her men's ahat to dry, when lol some thirty yen]- fromher she saw an old man seated counting out gold on a. broad stone at his feet. At first she thought it must be one of the good people or fairies, or else she must be dreaming; but no I cocking her head one side she saw for cer- tain the profile of Brian Tuafe, and he was counting a mass of gold. She ran in and screamed her news rather than spake it. "Nomwrus, woman," In?! Shamus. roughly. "it is not in nature." "Then go and see for your-elf, man!" she replied. Slmmus was not the only one to take this advice. They all stole out on tip-toe, and made a sort of semicircle of curiosity. It was no dream; there were piles of gold glowing in the mu, and uld Brian with u 1tursepistol across his knee; and even Lurcher seemed to have his eye steadily tised on the glittering booty. When they had thoroughly drank in this unuxpected scene, 'f."'itx:' to cnnverne in agitated whispers. u even in talking they new-r looked at each other-tlu/sr eyes wuu- 'chwd nu the gold. {Said Guilliuum I "You did very wrong, Sluuuus. to turn out the old father as ye done; now see what we have lost by it. let‘a a Tart of the money he laid by, and we'll never see a penny of it."

Oh! the Lord be praised! oh,tlse Weary day since you left us. and all out good luck wid yu I" Brian received this and similar spec-c1105 with fury and reproach”. Then they humhlcd themselves and wept,emseul their ill-guvvrned tongues, and hewzu'lcd the men's Mly in listening to them. They dattcred him and eajoled him, and ordered their husbands to come forward and Log the old man's pardon, and not let him cvvr leave them again. The supple sons were all penitence md affection directly. Brian at last consented to stay, but stipulated a certain chamber with a key to it. "For," said he, "I've got 1115:5th box to take care of now, its well as myself." They wicked up their ears directly at montinu of the strong box, and asked were it was. "Oh I G'uilliauut and Shumus would car- ry it or anything else, to oblige their long. lost father," "Oh, it is not so far, but I cun't carry it, Give me two buys to fetch it." tio they went with him to the farmer's cart, and brought in tho box, which was pretty large, and above all wus very full and heavy. And so he passed a pleasant time, em- bittered only by regrets, and very poignant they were, that “my had heard nothing of his son Garrett. Lurclwr, ulso, wns taken great care of, and bot-lune + and lazy. But shncks thnt do not kill undermine. Bofure he rpm-had three.seore and ten, Brian Tank’s night-work and troubles told upon him, an] he drew near his end. He was quite cumcinusof it, and announced his own departure, but not in a. regretful way. He had Immune quite a philosopher, and indeed there was a sort of chuckle about the old fellow in speaking of his own death. whieh his daughters-in-law secretly denounced as unehristiam and what was worse, uncanny. Whenever he did men- tion the espreted event, he was sure to say: “And mum. boys, my WM 13 m we strung box." "Don't spu‘: of it, father," was the reply. When he was dying, he called for both his sons, and said, in a feeble voice: "I was a strong farmer, and come of honest folks. Ynu‘ll give me a good wash. ing, buys, and a grand funeral." They promised this very heartily. So there was a grand wake, and the virtues of the deceased and his professional impor- tance were duly howled by the old lady who excelled in this lugubrious art. Then the funeral was hurried on because they were in a hurry to open the chest. Tho funeral was joined in the aura. ynrd by a stranger, who muffled his face and shed the only tears that fell upon the grave. After the funeral he stayed behind all the rest that mourued, but he joined the family at the feast which followed, and I behuld! it was Garrett, cume a day too lute. He was wvlcumed with exuberant affection, not being down in the will; hut they did not ask him to sleep there. The-y wanted to be alone and mud the will. He begged for some reminiscence of his father, and they gave him Lumber. So he put Lurcher into his gig and drove away to that good farmer, sure of his welcome, and praying God that he might find him dive. Perhaps his brothers would not have let him go go easily had they known be had made a. largt fortune in America; and w" going to buy i dice of the empty. .. ...~ _ .

' Poor old Lurcher kept pricking his em all l the time, and cudgelled his memory ct the i tones of the voice that we: addrestsitttthittt. Garrett reached the tum, and was received I first with stares, then with crinof joy, end i was dragged into the house, so to speak. After the first ardur of weioome. he told them he had arrived only just in time to l bury his futher. "And this old dog," (mid , he, "is all that's left ofhim. He was mine first, but when I left, he tookto father. He was always tt wise dog." “We know him," said the wife ; “he has been here before." And she was going to blurt it all out, but her husband just then gave her a. look as black as thunder, which wasn't Ins way at all, bat he explained it to her afterwards. "They are friends, those three, over the old man's grave. We should think twice before we stir ill blood between 'em." So when he stopped her. she turned it off eleverly enough, and said the dear old dog must have his supper. Supper they gave him, and a new sheep. skin to lie on by the great fire. So there he lay and seem to doze. The best hell in the house was laid for Garrett. and when he got up to g", didn't that wiseolll dog get up too, with an ellurt, and move 'rtithy toward (Jarrett and lick. his hand; than lie Ow again all of apiece, as he should say: "I'ru very tired of it all." "He knows me at lust. He was always a. wonderful wise dog," Garrett re- marlted. In the morning they found Lurcherdend and Tim: the nheepskin. It was a long good iglst he had 1nd so quietly to the frie ufhis youth. arrvtt shed tours over lnm and said: "If I had only known whut he meant I'd have set up with him. But. I could never see fur. lie was a deal wiser for ll dog than I shall ever be for n mun." Meanwhile the fumily party assembled in the bod-room of the deceased. Every trace of feigned regret had left their faces, and all thuir eyes sparkled with joy and curiosity, they wont to open the chest. It 5 was locked. They hunted for the key; first, ( quietly; then Homily. The Women found it at last sewed upin the bed. They cut it out and opened the chest. The first thing they found Win-in lotof stones. Thry glared at them, and the color left their faces. What deviltry is this , Presently thcy found writing on one stone I "Look below." Ttttture was reaction and I. loud laugh.

Mr. Blake lay: with regard to the depart. Inont he was lately in, "the busmeu ofthe otfiex, has been promptly done on business principles ; long standing arrears have been wound up. and when I left the de- partment my ottieerg reposted that there was nothing behind hand," He then referred to the great reduction he had made in the expenses of the Board of Penitentiary Inspecwri. The Board was abolished. and one Imtpeetor nppoiut- ed, who is in officer of the department of Justice. The finaueud results hue been that whereas the average annual eUrge for the years 1870 to 1874 was within a. tritie of 09.000. the annual charge I. tritU of 09,000, the annual charge fur 1876 was “.614, or about half the former amount. 50 again with refenence to the Dominiun Puliee, who are under the immediate surveillance of the minister of Justice. The annual charge under this} head for the year 1878 was shunt 017,10. I the vote for the present fiveal year is .11.- 000 I. saving of over one third, or about 96.200. He found there was an oftioer at Montreal called a Superintendant of Police whose sole duties were to receive his own salary and the halal-inn of two constables (who themselves had nothing to do), and to send returns to Ottawa of this transac- tutu. He superannuatcd the ottieer, aiml- ished his otiiee, dihmisned the Countable.” and saved the Ilium-y. The result is that whereas tho aggregate charge for depart. mental salaries and coutiugetuies, for l"" lice and for penitentiary directors, was in t the time of the late Goveruuteut t49,. 200; it has been reduced to $29.00!! --B saving of more than two tiftus, or over 520,000 a year. I Another ground of attack was with refer- ence to the prerogative of mercy in cupi- tul crimes. He said I “The pain and auxi- ety attendant on decisions of these canes is very great I indeed it is hardly eoueeiv. able to those who have not been called on to deal with them ; and I do not disguise from you that that pain and anxiety was aggravated by those unworthy eharges ; humus I have told you they were uot heard m that place in which they could be met ; I am vindicated by the silence of my op- ponents." After referring to some of the lcginlutive work accomplished by the present Govern. meut, he dwelt at some length on the ttau. aiso and ballut. He showed how impos- sible it would be to have a uniform tian. chine law for the whole Duiuiniun. The Goveruutot, by the lnw/ which is now in force, gave to each Province the fmucliine which that Province considers best suited to its eiretuustanees, and this nt compan- tively no expense, the local lists being used for the common eloctiunn. In cmmm-nd- ing the improvements lately made in that Ontario frunchise law, he thus npuke of the Bill giving farmer's sons in that Province a right to Vt to ', One of my suggestions in a speech in 1874, whirl: M'uked diraratisiou, has found its way into the stituu- book.

(Uear,hvar,tu.d cheers! The true test of the franchise to my mind are citi- zeuship and intelligence. (Hour. hen, and cllecrm don't think we can uphold the principle of any of the Provinces as perfect but the neamr We can approach to the practical adoption of the rule that every good citizen possessing a rennin-bl:- adueation and intelligence shall hive a vote, the never we shall upprouhto what is my idea ct lent of the true hull of the franchiu.’ (Loud Cheers.)
