Christmas had ‘come and gove ; a sad Christmas to Clement Vale and those of his household. On Christmasâ€"ove his father died in his arms ; but that death, holy and tranquil, had roâ€"awakened spiritual life in Clement‘s soul, Let the light of eternity once shine upon our little earthly hopes and ambitions, and they are shrivelled up in a moment. And from that day he set his foot upon hik dead solf and grasped the hand | that was held out to draw him nearer to ' hoaven. The next day David Arran accompanied MrsWestyn to Eden Halland presented the receipt to Williain Lawford, â€"Where was no mistaking his brother‘s handwriting, Wilâ€" liam knew it at a glance, and he knew too, "This is only a little world," said Bridget cheerfully. "People can searcely help runâ€" ning against each other," "I want to nirke you see," said Bridget, after another pattse, "that I don‘t hate Mr Vale so much as I wight reasonably be exâ€" pected to hate him. But I know that he will keep ‘the sense of his loss to the en d of his days. / A failure is not a loss ; If he had tried to win you, and ~had failed,. he would have seen thatGod did not mean you for hire. ~As it is, he will never lose the sting of selfâ€"reproach unless youars brought together agaid."

"Ah, but very near Edna." | "I have seen that in him. Oh, Bridget! l when we like a person we ara quick in deâ€" tecting his faults.

"I had been wondering what I should do if our home were broken up, Bridget," she said. _ "It is hard to frce the world with a wounded spirit; but I meaut to do it,. I supposs," she added abruptly, people are saying some severe things about Mr. Vale?" That night, as Bridget and Edna lay awake in the dark, the latter spoke for the first time about her own private griet. The great relief had opened her heart, and had given her sister the entrance that she had desired, but would not ask for. "It must be one of father‘s old letters | that she has found, thought Bridget. The ) | others, stariled and distressed, had all risâ€" | ing from their chairs.

But Edna‘s name threw a light upon the lines, and then his thoughts went back to the day when he had met her in the lonely lane on the outeMfrts of Campâ€" wick. Together they had laughed over the Gipry‘s vague predictions, and she bad told him that of all losses this was the lo86 she dreaded most. ! The thing that she bhad‘ greatly feared hbad come upon her, and through him! In smoothlyâ€"flowing musical rhymes, the writer told of a band of pilgrims who had paused in their journy to recount the losses they had known by the way. One spoke of riches gone, another of honors snatched away, and a third, of those whom death bad stolen from him. But the last told of a heavier loss than any of these. From him had been taken away a believing heart. Heo took it listlessly; it was a short poem entitled "Losses ;" but before he had read the opening lines his glance fell upon the signature at the endâ€"Edna Westyn. ' "I am afraid you are worn out, said Naâ€" ‘ omi‘s voice at his side. "We neednot wait for mother, she has gone shopping; I will give you tea at onee." "No, let us wait," he answered. She left the room, and returned in a few moments, bringing him a wellâ€"known journal. "If you are not too tired to read, I wish you would give me your opinion of this poem," she said, pulting it into his hand.

One Monday evening he came inâ€"doors more than usually tired with parish work, and sat Gown to rest in oz of tha brown 'armchnirs. It was April, but the wenather i was still cold, and a high wind was blusâ€" tering through the streets; above the ecrowded roofs he could see the light of a wild, red sunset. Tho Vales lived in a court, old, and sombre, _ and grey ;l and from. their windlows they had a | glimpse of a solitary tree,. growing in a yard behind a great warechouse. Already there was the grecuness of young buds on the boughs it was spreading against a back» ground of smoky wall; and as Clement locksd at it he thought of the tall e‘ms in the Cathedral Close at Campwick, and of the greenery around Hope Cottage. : "" ncCiperinthe parish: and the schools.

Mrs. Thorner and her girls only thought ol Ler as a shy, sorrowâ€"stricken, little widow, whose natural place was in the brackground. The young ladies admired Naomi, but set her down as & sort of uncloistered nun, and the vicar said she was like the maiden who greeted the pilgrims at the door of the palace ; "a. grave and beautiul damsel called Discretion. ‘ Discrecs she certainly was, and an excelâ€" lent helper in the parish: and the schools. Ouce more Clement was throwing himâ€" self, heart and sou!, into his work ; no amâ€" bitious dreams came betweerd him and his great mnim in these days. Sunday after ‘ Sunday the eastâ€"end church was crowded, but it was "the common people" who heard him gladly here; neither lord nor lady came, after the sermon, to compliment him on his eloquence ; and even Paley might forgiven Mr. Vale for being the popular preacher of the poor, J _ That eross and a long‘string of beads hnd been a parting gift to Ngomi from John and Susau.

The Arabs offered to surrender if the troops | were withdrawn. _ The condition â€" was deemed inadmissible and more fagots were l lighted. A tremendous clamor was heard within of the hundreds of wretches in deâ€" spairing council. There were two parties,. but the fanatics prevailed, and the French terms were again refused. Some of the minority escaped, and the wives and danghters of all endeavored to fly,but were shot down by their husbands and futhors, resolved to impose as well as to endure martyrdom. â€" Still another cartel was sent in by the really horrified French, but the officer was fired on,and on the night of the ‘Wth.

Sergeant Jones, who thorought understands its use, was sent with a -nn‘ party to cross the river higher up and come round to the great cave. At groat risk to himself, he leanod over the top of the rock and threw in a charge of dynamite, with a fuse attached. We hear a great commotion in the cave, then an explosion,and then an awful yell.
