Crawford, P. 0 hâ€"53 Animpulse of thanksgiving promoted her to turn into the dark cloisters and enter the cathedral. The afternoon service had alâ€" ready begun ; down the dim aisles rang the choristers‘ voices chanting the Magmificat â€""He remombering His merey hath holâ€" pen H:#s servant Isracl;" they sang, "as Heo prorwised to our foref thar, Abrasham There was a golden calm about that afternoon, which was more like late, decayâ€" ing autumn than early spring. It was one of those still days when everything seems to be taking rest ; and yet the very stillness made Edna think of the silent growth going on all around her. "We do not ever know what is growing for us," says a modern writer ; and she began to wonder hopefally what good things were springing up for her in unsuspected places. It was a very pleasant and satisfactory interview on both sides. When it was endâ€" ed Edna retraced her steps through the old Canon Gate with a lighter heart than she had known since her fathef‘s death, There is now and then An intuition which accompanies the first sight of m face. Edua‘s first glance at Mrs. Everleigh set her mind at rest, and assured her that this lady was destined to be something more than a mere employer. She did not know how she knew this, but certain it is that the conviction calmed and comforted her at once, and seemed to sweep all difficulties away. She was not a little comforted to see that the furniture was neithor uew nor very costly. There was quite a shalby place on the carpet, near a certain chair, which did her heart good. It anid plainly that restless teot might move freely here, and gave a mute assurance of sase and genuine comâ€" fort. Then, too, the books that were seatâ€" tered about on the tables spoke of tastes with which she could beartily syrapaâ€" thize. When Edua found herself in the vicar‘s drawingâ€"room her spirits sank again ; it was impossible to forget that she had come to "try for a situation." And then she sternly rebuked herself for her faintâ€"heartâ€" edness. Was she not there to offer honest work for honest pay, and was not that an honourable errand ? Mr. Everleigh held the viearage of 3t. Cyprian‘s, a church that was ouly second in importance to the cathedral itself, He had ample private means, and was well known as an active, kindly man; but the Westyns had never made his aequaintance. They were not in his pavish, and Richard was universally thought to be under a cloud ; nevertheless,when his sudden doath had drawn the attention of all Campwick on his widow and children; Mr. Everleigh was looking about for some nieans of being helpful to them. Just outside the Canon Gate was Mr. Everleigh‘s house, one of those heavy oldâ€" fashioned dwellings which abound in all cathedral towns, This iame had a venerable archway at each end. That upou. Edua‘s right hand was the gate of the palace gardens, "over which was onee the prison of "clerks conâ€" vict," One or two grim littlo_windows frowned out between masses of ivy, and the grey stoneâ€"work looked as if it could stand the storms for coming centuries. \nd that upon the left was the ancient Canon Gate, built by a munificent bishop hundreds of years ago. Her noarest way to the Everleighs® resiâ€" dence lay through the cathedral yard, and then along a narrow passage with the preâ€" bendaries‘ houses en one side and a high wall on the other. At the end of the alloy, she came out into a quiet lune, in which the dark redâ€"brick deauery stood behind its iron gntes. It seqned to Edna that the sunbeame wore giving promise of bright days to come â€"days when her heart would be light agnain, and her feet strong to tread her apâ€" pointed path. The light shone upon her black draperies, which had ail the sad freslmess of new mourning, and rerainded her of the "garments of praise" which should one day be given for the spirit of heaviness. The wind was quiet, lights and lhldo'll lay peacefully about the cathedral walls, | and the grass was brightly greon. Birds! were twittoring cheerily from the leafless troes, and crows were fiying in circlol! round the tall white spire that rose high into the wintry biue. ! CHAPTER IV.â€"NEW QUARTERS.

Later on, when Bridget and Edna were together in their room, the eldest sister beâ€" gan to approach another subject which she knew would prove disagreeable. She wantâ€" ad to get it over while they were alone ; and yet it seemed hard to spoeak of it just after Fdna had been rejoicing over the successful application to Mrs. Everleigh, ‘‘You have not yet heard my plan for making money," she said, when Edua had ended a graphic description of the viearage drawingâ€"room. "I mean to work hard, I assure you." ‘"Dear old Briareus, have you jnst got szoth«r pair of hands ? Why, you are al. wayre daing all the things that we hays harder, Philip ?" she said. "You speak as if nobody‘s heart achsd but your own. Is it not wisor to adapt ourselves to ciroumstances, than to try to believe that circumstances will shape themse‘!ves to suit from his pocket, rattled noisily down nnder the table. Bridget was very sorry for him. The boy hastily pulled out his handkerâ€" chiof ; and two or three marbles, dislodged "Ohb, you won‘t sell old Longshanks and Cceur de Lion !" cried Philip. "Why, they are the best things in the house. You‘ll just go on and on, until there‘s fothing left but the kitchen furniture! It‘s too bad," added the boy, flushing, as hefcund a lump rising in his throat. There was n pause, and Margaret‘s hand stole up to her face. To her tgl change was hard,but not so hard as ano/ ther change which had long preceded it. HWer strength had been worn out, not by Richatd‘s death, but by the long heartâ€"ache that came before. She could not bear the lad‘s imâ€" patient words as she could have borne them »nee. e ‘"Yes ; Dr. Arra that will suit us." "Are wo really going into n cottrge, mother ?" asked Olive, somewhat crestâ€" fallen. C **And there are the bronze figures," gaid Bridget, feeling that this was the right moment to apeak out. ‘‘Be quiet, Olive ; Br dget is quite right," anid Mrs. 'Vutyn with firraness. "The least tiltiable of those pictures is worth fifty pounds. When we move into a sottage our paintings will look too grand for our little rooms." "Oh, they are no‘ going," remerked Olive pertly. "Bridget rather likes to shake our nerves, sometimes." thy &uenviable duty ot srying all the unâ€" ple;lsnt things that had to be suid. There scomed to be every probability, in the present instance, that her counsel would first be railed at, and then followod. But as many a wise counsellor before her had gone through a like experience, she did not grumble, and only felt glad that she, and not the mother, had started this ebjectionâ€" able subject. **Must we give them up ?" asked Edna, with sudden tears in her eyes. "I never thought that they would have to go." ""What are you talking about, Dridget ?" cried Olive, indignantly. "Of course we are not going to part with them. Don‘t be va‘ucing things like a broker !" **Mother," sha said at last,nervously stir: ing her tea, "I think we might got a good price for our pictures." _ It was not, perhaps, quite easy for any of the Westyns to realise the change that was coming upon their daily lives. The diningâ€"room, carpeted and curtained with crimson, was their own room still. And the pictures on the walls were theirs too ; â€"the golden, sunâ€"lit seaâ€"piece ; the cool meadowâ€"seene ; and the bit of winter woodâ€" land, with a red sun going down behind dark stems, and faintly tinging the lnow.‘ But Bridget, &s she sat in her usual place at the tesâ€"tray, was silently reckoning the value of those familiar paintings, and wondering how much those quaint bronzes on the chimnayâ€"piece would fetch. ' Bridget was grateful for the promise,and even for tie sympathy ; although she stood in less need of the latter than Miss Fuller supposed. She was so much in earnest in her desire to earn her own bread, that she quite forgot to pity herself for having to do it. It was Bridget who answered him, "Why do you make a bhard thing still C S 0 e o e e ee C maReed “"' | . ‘Thore was a certain Miss FiWe;who had | known Mafgaret Westyn in her giflhood, hnd was ow the owtler i the most , fourishing drepery and millingry business in Campwick.

Our busi+ ness increasés every year, and we are alâ€" ways short of good hands. You had better have a few lessons in our workâ€" room, and 1 can supply you with work et home." Aseldest dnughter, Bridget gnpé;glly had o Tli;t;n;"hilo. Bridget herself had gone on a private crrand of het own; Wwhich took her into the principal street of 4he old city:; and his seed, for ever." AHd then came the Gloric; in which Edna joined with all her heart. Would she be a% reidy to sing it after De Profindls $ . Arran thinks he knows of one Even the email rooms assumed a very pleasant aspect when Mrs. Westyn and her daughtors had furnished and beautified them. The paintings had been disposed of, but there were choice engravings and photograps in Orford frames ; and if Philip «till mourned for the large bronze figuzes, he was constrinad is own that the ;n;m new abode. It must be borne in mind that the Wostyns were Londonâ€"bred child. ren, and that during their fogr years‘ resiâ€" denee in Campwick they had livel in a street. To have a piece of ground of res» pectable size, and watch the growth of flowers and vegetables, quite reconciled them to the small rooms and humble apâ€" pearance of Hope Cottage. aud budding wallflowors. § Bridget and Edna were quitp ready to like whatever their mother liked, and the _ She went to look at the cottage, and felt a curious sudden liking to it. True, it was a very lowly dwolling of two storys, and could only be approached through a narâ€" row lane which was a slongh in damp weather. ‘The ceilings were low and the boards creaky, and the rooms were about half the size of those in her former hcme. But Margaret was one of those people who believed that strong instincts ought 2ever to be disregarded, and sho felt that this would be a happy nest for them all. She liked the quaint casements that opened and shut without any diféculty,and straightway fell in love with the rotten old porch that supported the jessamine. What would it be in summer, when the ugly, yellowish walls were entirely coyered with feathery sprays and broad vineâ€"leares ? Even theon it seemed to her as if spring wero commencing earlier in that garden than elsewhere. There was a joyous chirpâ€" ing among the brown twigs of the sturdy lilac bushes, and primulas clustered under the low fiint wall, besides the snowâ€"drops He had stood with Margaret beside her husband‘s deathâ€"bed, and knew more about her personial trials than she ever suspected. And now he happened to kuiow of a cerâ€" tain vaciint cottage, statiGing just out of the city, whicli belotiging to one of kis patients. The little house had quite a considerable piece of ground attached to it; and cottage and garden were to be let for twentyâ€"five pounds a year. There is always somebody, however, who is ready 10 help a widow, and, in this instance, it was the Westyns‘ friendly neighbour, Dr. Arran, who came to their aid. Edua kissed her sister, and owned, still sadly, that she was right. Houseâ€"hunting may be a pleasant busiâ€" ness to & young couple about to make a now home for themselves. But when a family with strained means are seeking n suitable dwelling, it is quite another thing. "‘Not for me. God has given you the talent of gold, and me the talent of silver. I cannot teach, but I can sew. And I will not hide my Lord‘s gift in the earth because it does not happen to be the kind of gift that will bring me honour from men." ""You must define what a good position is. For my part, I think it is more honorâ€" able to be classed with theâ€" working bess than with the drones." working 9" But surely wa ought to keep a good position in socicty," said Edus. "Did you ever know anybody who was not looked down upon by somebody ? There are some people who mount high and stand upon solid heights that I can vever hope to attain to ; and I am quite content to feel that these great ones nr» above me. Then there are the shains,who get up on a crazy scaffolding, and erow boâ€" cause they can see over their neighbours‘ lionds. _ I do not mind thent at all." "But it is very hard to be looked down upon," answered Edna, with a suppressed in fighting againet poverty with one‘s needle? Is it not wise to,choose the weapon that we know best how to wield *" ‘‘Why will you waste tears, darling ?" said Bridget, having borme the silence as long as sho could. "Is there any disgrace Edna shook the brown tresses over her eyes and was silent. i But in the next moment she saw _ilmi Edna was in no frame to be jested with: There are certain timnes in all our lives when a joke is the very thing we are least capable of bearing.

At the tiié of the necident a freight train was beâ€" | ing made up for the West, and in shuaoting l this the car containing the explosive was driven with considerable violence ngainst | another, when, with a sudden deafening roar that shook the ground, the car itself | and many others were blown to atoms alâ€" | most as fine as lucifer matehes, and everyâ€" | ghing in the vicinity was wrocked. A great rent was torn in the ground some nine ft. deep by twenty â€"four in width. The air was ‘ suddenly thick with timbers, ties, rails carâ€" ; wheels, couplings, brakeâ€"rods, agricultural implements, and in fact everything l likely to make up not only a heavily laden ' freight train and its contents, but even the ‘ road upon which it was tunning and the gravel ant bardiy patked earth beneath it.
