"That old life was pleasant, and when I am done thinking so much, perâ€" haps it will be pleasant again, but just now I have no time for the things you speak of;" and then he would wander away to the woods, or the fields, or the mountain. At last, one day, when be was far from home, there came up a sudden thunderâ€" storm, and when it was over, a great rainâ€" bow spanned the sky with its double arch, dipping with one end into the far country beyond the river, while the other rested somewhere among the hemlockâ€"trees at So Carl grew happy again, and loved his wandering life arimost as well as the old quiet one, although the uncle and aunt shook their heads, and said they wished he were more like other lads, and would shout, and run, and ride, and row, as he used to be so fond of doing. Carl found himself very lonely after this, for thero was no one left to love him as he was used to being loved, although everyâ€" one was kind and good to him, and the uncle and aunt who came to live in his mother‘s house di1 all that they knew how to do by way of comforting him. But betâ€" | ter than the books, and the horse, and the boat, and the young companions they were constantly offering him, Carl loved to go away by himself, and in the woods, or by the river, or on the strong, "terrible mounâ€" tain," to think about his mother, and all she had ever said to him, and how happy they had been together; and sometimes, when the sky was very blue and deep at midday, or when it was soft and pearly with the httle fleeey clouds of dawn, or splendid with the rosy and gelden islands that float about the sunset, Carl would faney that the sweet face and golden hair he remembered so well peeped down at h‘m, or that the little soft hand that had used to smooth his eurls, or lie so cool and soothingly upon his heated forchead, beckâ€" oned to him out of some cloudy palace or waved n greeting from one of the. rosy islands. But at last came a day when Carl had grown to be a tall lad, and began to know how dearly he loved this beautiful mother of his, that the good Lord called to her out of heaven : and so, stepping only to kiss her boy on the check, and brow, and lips, went where sho was called. Then Carl would sometimes beg to strip off the shoes and stockings, and promise earnestly not to be tired, even if they should run a mile; but his mother would only laugh, and hugging her little boy in her arms, would dance about the room with him, saying that they two needed no rainbowâ€"cup to give them joy so long as they had each other. "Now, if it were not for the wet shoes and stockings, we might seamper through the meadow and up the mountain to the great hemlockâ€"wood and find the rainbowâ€" eup hiding in the shadows there." Everyona knowsâ€"at least everyone that knows anything worth knowingâ€"that at the end of the rainbow hangs a golden cup, | and that whoever is fortunate enough and quick enough to reach the end of the rainâ€" bow and snatch the cup before it disapâ€" pears, shall find it filled with whatever in life is most desirous, and shall forever after be accounted a lucky boy or girl, | man or womanâ€"that is to say, so long as he keeps the cup and keeps the secret of| it, for the rainbowâ€"cup, like several other’ charming things, loses half its value when shown and talked of to every chance comer,. . Carl knew about this rainbowâ€"cup right well, for his mother had often pointâ€" ed to the beautiful arch shining out from the black thunderâ€"clouds, and said : l, For the Review.

Morure Jixxks looked down again, there it was, just as he had seen it at first, and a very wonderâ€" ful sight, too, as we must all confess. The cleft was evidently an accidental one in the roof of a great cave, with no visible outlet except this. 6 s In the floor of this cave was a deep holâ€" low glowing with a redâ€"heat from the subâ€" He lost no time in scrambling up the rocks, until he found himself upon a ledge wide enough to kneel down and put his fnee 4 the cleft, which was about as wide as his hand, and a foot or two long. But after looking down for a moment, Carl sat upright, rubbed his eves, stared at the moon, at the rocks, the trees, and at last sharply bit his own finger; but when he Carl looked all about, and at last obâ€" served, a little above him, a very narrow cleft in the rocks, with a bright light shinâ€" ing out of it, much ruddier and warmer than the moonlight. Carl strayed on and on, until, as he stopped to rest a moment, he heard a euriâ€" ous little tinkling sound, like a hundred tiny hammers ringing on some hollow All was so pleasart and so bright that Carl strayed on and on, until he found himseli in a part of the wood where he had never been before, and nearer the summit of the mountain than most people cared to venture, especially at night, for the great erngs were piled up so loosely and stood frowning so darkly upon the climber, that one might fancy they were all ready to topple down on his head as soon as he should put it in their reach. Besides, the little wood sprites and gnomes that live on desolate mountainâ€"summits are not very much known, and people are afraid of them, when really they are some of the pleasantest little creatures in the world. As the sun was sctting, the moon rose out of the ocean, and soon threw such a bright light over the world, that one hardâ€" ly missed the sun. "He must have found the rainbowâ€"eup," said Carl, to himself, "But the next one shall be mine.‘ "Love? Yes; but the love of all the world is better even than a mother‘s love, and that is what a poet would find in the rainbowâ€"cup," said the other, bending his head as if to peep at the treasure in his breast, and then went singing down the mountain, while now the music that floatâ€" ed back to Carl was strange and sweet : "I would like to find the love my moâ€" ther used to give me," said the bey, softâ€" ly. "And what would you like to find with it, if you chanced upon it?" asked the youth, still smiling, but never answering Carl‘s eager questions. "No; but I am going to. I was too late this time. Did you find it ?2" "A glorious sunset and a fine place to see it from !" "Have you been looking for the rainbowâ€" cup?" asked Carl, eagerly. The other smiled. "Did you ever look for it," asked he, in turn "And departing leave behind me Footprints on the sands of time." Then, secing the lad who sat looking so ecarnestly at him, the Ignrelâ€"crowned singer smiled pleasantly, and said : T. H BE As the young man came on, he sung softly to himself, and Carl caught the words : Upon his head he wore & wreath of laurel leaves, and in one hand he carried some of their beautiful flowers, but the other hand was buried in his bosom, as if he hid something there too precious to be shown even to the kirds and squirrels. His face was pale, but his eyes were very bright, and his mouth almost as sweet as the one that had kissed Carl goodâ€"by, when | his mother went to heaven. ‘ Filled with this idea, Carl leaped from under the old arch, and ran with all his might across theâ€" meadows, hoping to ! elimb the mountain and reach the hemlockâ€" wood before the rainbow had quite disapâ€" peared. But although he bounded like a young stag, and made no more of walls and ditches than a bird vould have done, he had not entered the hemlockâ€"wood before the beautiful bow had quite taded away, leaving only the thunderâ€"clouds, breaking into great islands with little ’ channels of clear blue sky between, and a broad belt of gold at the horizon. Carl stopped when he saw that he was too late, and threw himself, panting, upon: a great rock, partly to regain his breath, partly to watch the ‘beautiful sunset. He had hardly sat there a minute, when light steps were heard in the wood, and turnâ€" ing quickly , Carl saw a young man, severâ€" al years clder than himself, coming toâ€" wards him. So poor Carl, needing nothing so much as the dear mother he had lost, fancied that if he could chance upon this wonderâ€" ful cup, he might with it find some means either of calling his mother back to him, or of going to join her in the beautiful blue sky. When Carl, sheltering himself under the old bridge, saw the rainbow, and noticed how it stcood, he remembered his mother‘s story of the rainbowâ€"cttip, although she had not told it to him for, some time before she went away, and he remembered, too, that she had always gaid that whoever found this cup should also find it filled with whatever would most content him. the top of the mountain. "For he sung of what the world will be When the years have passed away," ONTARIO Startled and perplezed, Carl arose, and, plunging into the dense shadow of the forest, made his way down the mountain, and home, his mind so filled with th: wonders of the cave that ne saw not» though the shadows crowded thick about him ; heard not, though the whispers that [mu the air were not those of the nightâ€" wind only, fhor the tender yolce of the birds and ingects wlhich had greeted his When he opened his eyes and looked down ngain, all was still and dark; no ruddy light, no wide cavern, no golden eup, no radiant queen, no gnomes, no salaâ€" manders, were to be seen; only a dark cleft in the rocks, where the moonlight fell, and was swallowed up without revealâ€" ing anything ; and for sound only the hoot of the great white owl that swooped close above his head, and rising, fanned her way heavily to the depths of the rustling Some elaborated the tracery of the vine, ’ and brought out the delicate myrtle flowers with a startling distinetness. Some burnâ€" ished the inner surface until it shone like & imirror ; some received from their brother gnomes the ribies, each ome a burden for the broadest shoulders of the little fellows, and set them in a fanciful pattern about the foot and upon the handle of the cup. The ring of the thousand little hammers, and the Inughter and shouts of the gnomes mingled in a pleasant sound, so harmoniâ€" ous with the song of the nightâ€"wind among the heralocks, that Carl could not tell when one began and the other ended, and at last raised his head and closed his eyes, listening to the wind, and trying to sepaâ€" rate its wellâ€"known voice from that silvery jargon which seemed to become enwrought with it. The hooks were now detached from the edge of the eup, and the gnomes,surroundâ€" ing it on every s‘ds, set to work to put on the finishing touches. The masterâ€"gnome frowned, and raised his golden staff, menacingly, as he turned to the noisy crew ; but the Queen laughed and waved her hand in farewell to the salamanders, whose work being done,stood a moment upon the edge of the glowing furnace, and then one after the other turnéed a sumersault into its depths. "Just then the gnome, seizing the long line, swung the oup off the fire for the last time, and raised such a shout in doing it as to quite drown the Queen‘s last words, which were of all the most important to Carl. ‘Yes, because that was for a poet," said Queen Iris, musingly. "But this one must be set with rubies, and have a myrâ€" tle vine around the edge. This is forâ€"â€"" "Which gems will your majesty have the new rainbowâ€"cup decorated with ? The last were diamonds." While Carl yet gazed, and wondered, and admired, the chief of the gnomes, apâ€" proaching the radient queen, took off his cap and bowed until the longeockâ€"feathers swept the ground, as he inquired : _ She was dressed in a mantle of blue velvet, with a searlet bodice, and a pettiâ€" coat of cloth and gold; but when she moved, were it ever so slightly, the colours of these garments blended together, and interfused so strangely that Carl, at one moment, was positive that he clearly saw every tint of the rainbow, and the next moment laughed at his own stupidity, for the regal robes had changed to the purest white, and before the laugh was over showed, for a moment, in the simple red, blue, and yellow they had first appeared Upon a throne built of rubies, sapphires, and topaz, with one great diamord at the back, which gleamed with the hues of each in turn, or combined them all into a stream of pure light, sat a beautiful maidâ€" en watching intently the progress of the workmen with the cup. But there was something in this wonderâ€" ful cave more curious even thar the gnomes and salamanders, more beautiful than the great cup, more brilliant than the glowing furnace. At a signal from the chief of the gnomes a second train now approached, each gnome bearing upon his back a little baskâ€" et filled with gold, and ladders being raised against the sides, each climbed up g)d emptied his basket into the great cup. Then it was swung back into the heat of the furnace, and the salamanders, glowing through and through with their refreshing heatâ€"bath, clambered up and fell to work I Inside the cup, and clinging to the flowers and vines embossed upon the outâ€" side of it, a whole army of salamanders were at work, each with his little hammer, pounding it into shape, and bringing out mcre clearly the forms of the foliage and flowers ornamenting it. After the salaâ€" manders had worked away in their fashâ€" in for awhile, those inside the cup swarmed up and dropped over the edge into the glowing oven bensath, and their comrades, the embossers, following them, the cup was deserted; but at this moment an army of swarthy little gnomes, who had been lying at rest in the crevices of the rocks, started up, and seizing a long line fastened to the crane, swung it of the ‘ fire to a platform of smooth stones close by, where the cup rested, still snpportedj by the hooks. | terranean fire beneath it, and over this hollow swung an iron crane, with long hooks at the end of it, and from these hooks hung a great golden eup, glowing and sparkling with tho fierce heat that searched it through and through. TORONTO Without speaking, Carl, still holding the little hand in his own, raised the cup to his lips, and drank half the contents. Then he put it to the mouth of the litt‘e maid, and when she had done, he drew her to him, and tenderly laid upon those smiling lips the kiss his mother had laid upon his when sho said goodâ€"bye. *"She did well to give it to us both," said he, softly, "for neither alone could have properly cared for it. Now you will come home and live with me, and I shall never be lonely again. What is your name, dear child ?" "Love," said the little maid, smiling up at him out of her clear eyes. "And did my mother send you out of heaven ?" asked Carl, seriously. "Heaven is love‘s home," said the maic« ; and then, with a little puzzled look, ::b;‘? But is gonr home in heaven ?â€" for your home is mine now." «"Where Love is, there will ‘be heaven," "Iris gives it to you and me, dear Carl," said the little maid, "and we both must drink. I was here just before you, and she waited for you." mariden who stood before him, smiling and blushing, while in the hand not clasped in his she held up the ruby rainbowâ€"cup, filled to the brim with the sparkling dowâ€" drops which had, for a moment, blinded Carl. Carl opened his eyes, and then opened them still wider. The rainbow and the rainbowâ€"queen were gone, although the shifting splendour yet lingered upon hoary rock and sombre hemlock, and danced brightly over the golde: hair, and soft blue eyes, and roseâ€"tinted cheeks of the A little tinkling laugh, like the faull of a tiny fountsin, seemed to answer him, and a dash of spray upon his face made him start back a little, and close his eyes,. As he did so, a light kiss fell upon his foreâ€" head, and his fingers clasped, not the golden handle of the rainbowâ€"eup, but a little soft, warm hand, which closed upon his own. "Ah ! give it to me, dear Irisâ€"give me the rainbowâ€"cup {" With a wild shout, Carl sprang up the mountain, up and through the dripping wood, and crags and ravines, till at the head of a deep valley he stopped suddenly, dazzled and overpowered with delight and joy. The end of the rumbow stood before him, filling the narrow valley with its everehanging â€" splendour, illuminating the old gray rocks ard sombre hemlocks with the hues of fairyland, softening and gloriâ€" fying not their dull tints rlone, but their very forms, until one would have fancied himself in that fabled land where everyâ€" thing has a soul, and speaks and moves, and shows the joy of its being, even as men do. ‘ But the rainbow ! _ Was it a rainbow » or was it a bright mist through which sparkled and changed the wonderful robes: of the lovely Iris? and was not that her sweet face, or was it but a knot of wildâ€" flowers drooping from the cliff behind ? and were those two white arms, or wore they tut the play of the vivid light that, diamondâ€"like, shot and sparkled through the mist ? â€" But thatâ€"ah! that was someâ€" thing real! ‘The cup, the glorious cup, with its burnished gold and glowing rubics, and the drooping myrtle wreath about its lipâ€"that, at least, was real; and as it glanced through the wonderful cloud that might be a rainbow, and might be the changing splendour of that fair queen‘s robes, Carl rushed forward, anl, holding up both his hands, cried : _ Then Carl leapea to his teet, and, lookâ€" ing to the enst, where the clouds still lay heavy and dark, watched for a moment with intense anxicty. At last it came, springing into existence even beneath his eyes, the glorious arch spanned the heavens, drooping with one curve towards the sea, while the other stooped to the mountainâ€"crest just above the boys head. It was as baief as it was furious and in an hour both thunder and lightning had ceased, and the dense black of the sky broke into great clouds, each edged with dazzling white, while the sun, peering from between two of the largest, laughed down at the earth, asking her how she liked her sudden shower bath. | All the bright summer morning that folâ€" : lowed this night, Carl watched and waitâ€" ‘ed, and when his good aunt carelessly said, We will have another thunderâ€"storm this ; afternoon," his heart danced with joy, for after the thunderâ€"storm there was almost always a rainbow, and the next rainbow Carl had determined should find him on ‘the mountain and all ready to seize the ‘ precious cup, which, he nothing doubted, would be the myrtleâ€"wreathed and rubyâ€" gemmed one, the manufacture of which he had watched upon the previous night. ‘ As the great clouds came rolling up out of the south, and spread themselves, black and threatening over the sky, Carl left the house, and was soon rapidly climbing the mountain. _ The black clouds Lad now covered the whole sky, and the vivid lightâ€" ning began to shoot through them, while the crashing thunder made the very mounâ€" tain tremble beneath the feet of the bold boy. When at last the great drops of rain began to patter about him, each one large and round as the tears that gather in the eyes and slowly roll down the checks of a little grieved child, Carl retreated to a cave in the mountsinâ€"side, where he had dreamed away many a summer noon, and there waited for the storm to subside. upward progress. In â€" condlusion we must not forget to mention one €ass which can find here a very wide field of employment. ‘The * . mand for domestic servants is uways great, and good girls comm®»>", exechent wages and comfortable ttuations.

For the enpitalist Manitoba and the Terâ€" ritories furnish unrivalied opportanities, Money is searce and communds a high rate of interest. Consequently abundant openâ€" ings for safe investments, at high rates of interest, upon undoubted sccurity are preâ€" sented." The opportunities for embarking: industrial entorprises aro very numerous,, and the practical business man, with money at command, can hardly fail to find open~ ings that will meet his views, To the practical farmer with a small capital Manitoba offers unrivalled attracâ€" tions, for such a man, by the exercise of ordinary thrift and industry, may cerâ€" tainly look forward to an immediate and comfortable living, and to making money at no distant date, when communiâ€" eations . with the outer world shall have been secured. In fact, an enterpris» ing, industrious man may fairly hope to atâ€" taim on a prairie farm in the space of ten years a position that it took his father forty years to reach in the heavily timbered porâ€" tions of Ontario, | It is here, as elsewhere, very advantagcous to the new settlor to have abundant help in his own family.

The conditions are not particularâ€" ly favorable for stray journeymen finding employment at their craft; but a good workman, with a small capital, would casiâ€" ly find localities to establish himself where his services would be valanble in the young settlements growing up in all parts of the Province. Manitoba is essentially a farming counâ€" try, and nowhere in the world does the produce of the soil so readily yield itself to the labor of the agriculturist. Of farmers we cannot have too .aany; but it should be remembered that, to embark successfulâ€" ly in this, as in any other independent voâ€" eation, the possession of a small capitalâ€" say atleast $1,000â€"is almost indispensible. It is true that some settlers have managed to get along with less, and yot have thriv» en; still we should not be warranted in adâ€" vising any newâ€"comer to venture to plant himself{ upon the prairie in the forlorn hope of successfully cambatting the obstaâ€" eles that have been overcome by only such persous as are peculiarly fitted by experiâ€" ence and resource to fight this kind of batâ€" tle, First of all it is necessary to repent the caution, which we have given at intervals heretofore, with respect to one particular class, whose experiences in this new counâ€" try have been generaliy the reverse of satâ€" isfactory.

The season‘s immigration luvit‘dy commenced to set in, the time s opâ€" portune for giving a few words of advice to the many persons who are doubtless cor> sidering â€" whother they shall try to better their prospocts by removing to the new fields of labour and outerpr'iue prenl:t;d so attractively by Manitoba and the Northâ€" west Territories.
