The visit of the Italian fleet to Portsâ€" mouth, England,last week was followed by the stay of the Spanish equadron at Plyâ€" mouth, where the Spaniards were treated with the greatest cordiality, in accordance with the Queen‘s own instructions sent to the authorities of Plymouth, â€" An interestâ€" ing remark in this connection was mude by the Queen during the course of a dionet at Windsor Castle, previous to ber Majesty‘s departure for Osborne. A guest suggested that the visit of the warships of Spain would have been more interesting if the Spanish and Italian sailors bad fraternized at Portsmouth, where, besides, the Spaniards would have been able to see more paval works than they could at Plymouth. Thereupon, the Queea observed quietly that Plymouth Hoe would interest them more. â€" This reference to the historic scene there at the time of the Armada she emphusized by contrasting the hfatorical dispatch sent from Plymouth to Queen Elizabeth at Windsor 300 years ago with her own kindly message sent that day, instructing the authorities of Plymouth to show the Spanish sailors the warmest hospitality. j 1t was off Plymouth He igh rock), it Tiymouth. quietly tha them more scene ther fi;‘g‘h‘gv\&h_u'tl. .Lotd ons PR AURTL en c d enari having under him such renowned mariners «s Drake, Hawkins,and l‘_'robi‘her,ulemble(‘ â€" l1 was of Plymouth He will be remembered, tha EiA Ne Sm esn o irvae F the eighty comparatively small and lightly armed vessels, whick, on July 21, 1588, (July 31, old style), went out to fight the Spanish Armada, consisting! of about 150 large ships, then sweeping up the channel in creecenot formation, their l.ine_ being seven The very poor than those of t wor 1d. â€" TheGer out *slums."

For you will understand that when an oflicer has so many men and horses under him, he has his mind full of recruits and remounts, fodder and facries, and quarters, so that even when he is not in the face of the enemy, life is a very serious matter for him. But when he is only a lieatenant or"a captain, he has nothing heavier than his epaulsttes upon his You do very well, my friends, to treat me with some little reverence, for in honor ing me you are bonoring both France and yourselves. | It is not merely an old, grey= moustached officer whom you see eating 1 whoulders, +o that he can clink his spors aud swiug his dolman, drain his glass and kiss his girl, thinking of nothing save of enjoying a gallant life. That is the time when he is likely to bave adventures, and it is most often to that time that I shall turn in the stories which I may have fer you. So it will be toâ€"night when I tell you of my visit to the Castle of (iloom ; of the strange mission of Subâ€"Lieutenant Duroc, and of the horrible affair of the man who was once known as Jean Carabin, and afterwards as the Baron Straubenâ€" thal. You must know, then, that in the Febâ€" ruary of 1807, immediately after the taking of Danzig, Mujor Legendre and 1 were commissioned to bring tour hundred remounts from Prussia into Eastern Poâ€" land. The hard weather, and especially the great battie at Eylau, had killed so many of the horses that there was some danger of our beautiful Tenth of Hussars becomâ€" ing a battalion of light infantry. We knew, therefore, both the Major and 1, that we whould be very welcome at the front. We did not advance very rapidly, however, for the snow was deep, the roads detestable, and we had but twenty returnâ€" ing invalids to assist us, Besides, it is impossible, when you have a daily change of forage, and sometimes none mt all, to move horses faster than a walk. I am aware that in the storyâ€"books the cavairy whirls past at the maddest of galâ€" lops ; but for my own part, after twelve campaigns, I should be very satisfied to know that my brigade could always walk upon the march.and trot in the presence of the enemy. â€" This I say of the busears and chasseurs, mark you, so that it is far more the case with cuirassiers or dragoons. We crossed the Vistula opposite Narienâ€" werder, and had got as far as Riesenberg, when Major Legendre came into my room in the postâ€"house with an open paper in his hand. uâ€":.‘“&"ou are to leave me," said he, with despair upon his face, F hm n t mt t UR Tt 2 0 onl cranyvede hn N No message could have pleased me better. I was already very well thought of by my superior officers, although ] may say that none of them did me justice. It was evident to me, therefore, that this sudden order meant that the regiment was about to see service once more, and that Lasalle understood how incomplete my squandron would be without me. It is true that it came at an inconvenient moment, for the keeper of the pon-ho?_se had a dnughterâ€"‘ . . 6 amange e ty w onl uc It was no very great grief to that, for he was, if I may say s worthy to have such a subaltern. ed however, in silence.

Welch was terribly injured wbout the head, and it was at cnce seen that his chances of recovery were almost hopeless. Howe‘s right leg was almost crushed to a pulp from the knee downward, and the blood of the wounded formed little pools on the floor, The surgeons applied "first aids," so as to stop the bleeding, and the police ambulances were sent for.

Takemy advice and spunk right up." Mrs. Bowser didn‘t try to explain any farther. She just continued the weeping business until she got ready to stop, and then she got up and went around teeling so good that a tramp who came to the door was given Mr. Bowser‘s secondâ€"best shoes and a quarter in cash, â€" At noon, when Mr. Bowser came up to LC T Pn t tw MR U TIM ocm Pencrai At noon, when Mr. Bowser came up to ‘ lunch, the * fit" was still on.

He never made a kick at the theater nor about having his feet walked on in the crowded car. He smiled all the way home and laughed after he got thore, and Mrs. Bowser went to bed utterly conâ€" science stricken to think that she had held Mr. Sowser up to the public for three long years in a false light. â€" Even his snores had a beautiful cadence as v.b?y Slou.ud out over i .

Some days after this conversation Hilda was reclining rather listles«ly in a low chair, her hunds folded in her lap and her exquisâ€" ite misty eyes fixed on the soft white clouds ma they flitted over the tender blue of the April sky, when a firm, manly tread sounded on the stone stairs, and Mrs. Grey, opening the door, announced ** Mr, Montaâ€" cute." iNh t ne en e ht n LN oi s T him. _ He never knew the means by which the will had been discovered, inclining to the beliefâ€"which Roger forbore to conâ€" tradictâ€"that it had been discovered among the papers of Nige! Wentworth, after his sudden death. t T * Roger ‘The lovers had not met for some da, , and now they clasped hands in silence both. hearts being too full for utterance, At last Roger suid, sorrowfuily, looking down at the fair face of the woman he so devoredly loved : "It is a ruined man who is spesking. to you toâ€"day, Hilda, I received no reâ€" ply from my aunt when I wrote to tell her of the discovery of your father‘s will, so I wrote again a few days ago ; look here !" drawing a letter from his pocket, here is her answer." Hilda took the large, square envelope with its elaborate monogram, addressed in Mrs. Pulmer‘s wellâ€"known writing, from Roger‘s hand. It contained ber lover‘s last letter to his aunt with the seai unâ€" broken. Across the envelope were these | words : ue o s During the settiement of her affairs by her kind friend, Hilda remained with Mrs. Grey quietly at the old mansion in Park Gardens, and, consequent upon *‘the law‘s delay," April was far advanced, and the trees and shruabs in the park were putting on their tender livery of green, before Roger was able to anuounce to Hilda that BC (nnraneswnnbn ie uy »rn m ommc | _ **My darling," replied the young man I sorrowfully, ‘‘do you not see what a gulf is fixed between us ; how can I claim your generous promise, now that I am abomeless, penniless man, with no profeuion or means of earning aliving * W hat & foriune huaoâ€" ter every one would consider me x © I+ is you who are cruel now," exclaimâ€" |ed Hilda, bursting into tears. ** You | wished to sacrifice everything for me when |1 was pennileâ€"#, as well as nameless, and \ now you retuse to accept & share in the Ifurmne which is utterly valueless without "Choose between Hilda O‘Conner and myself.

I have enough for both," looking up in her_lover‘s grave face with fondly contiding affection. Heart to Heart you,. Oh Roger," lifting her wet eyes to her lover‘s face, "*I would rather stand here a beggar toâ€"day than lose your love that is all the world to me ; don‘tleave me ; 4on‘t leave me, durling !‘ and here poor Hilda hid her face in her hands and sobbed afresh. Roger drew her closely to his beating heart, exclaiming: «* Will my love indeed make you happy * Be happy, then dearest ; you will at least have the most devoted slave that ever woâ€" man had to minister toyour every wish." ** Nay, Roger," replied the blushing girl, us she laid her golden head against his shoulder, *‘ notslave, but king." When Roger returned to his hotel that evening after an interview with Hilda he sat down and wrote a long letter to his kind old friend, Mr. Heathcote, the Vicar of Marbam, telling him that Hilda and he were to be marriecd as soon as the settleâ€" ment could be got ready and begging that the Vicar would see Mrs. Palmerand inform her ot her nephew‘sa pproaching marriage, He also told the kind old man all the sorâ€" row he had been sufering since h‘i- aunt Mr. H:uthcote answered the young man‘s letter in person, arriving in London about x week before the day fixed upon for the wedding. He was mccompanied by his gaughter Maria, and they lost no time in proceeding to the apartments which Roger had taken for Hilda, and where she was i:::l returned his letters and refused to ac knowledge Hilda us bis wife.

The meeting between the girls was an April one of smiles and tears, though Maria scon recovered herself suthâ€" ciently to take an interest in Hilda‘s dress and trousseau, which she pronounced to be a very inadequate one for an heiress, and insisted on taking her friend for a round of shopping to aurply as far as possible, in so short a time, the deficiency in her toilet, Mr. Heathcote had returned to Marham, leaving Maria with her friend, but had promised to come back to town to perform . the marriage _ ceremony between his young friends. Greatly to Maria‘s disgust, the wedding was to be a very quiet affair, and the newâ€" ly married Kfir would go straight from church to Ryde, where they intended spending a week before proeeedi:g to the Abbey. The wedding day dawned bright and clear, and, attended by the few friends who were present to witness the ceremony, Hilda stood before the altar and plighted her troth to the man so fondly loved, so staunchly true. _ And surely the April sunshine never shone upon a prouder hrideéroom or a happier bride than Roger and Hilda as they left the 'gloomy London church to tread life‘s pathway together ~@ till death should them part." A brilliant day in May was drawing to a or, Love‘s Unerring Choice CHAPTER XIV CR St and Mr. the **Did you find it so ensy a thing to forâ€" get the iove of a lifetime, Roger®* Kiss me, my boy, and we will let the past bury its dead, 1 cannot quarrel with you if I would.

I have beard how nobly you have endured your cruel sorrows, _ For the future we will befriends, you and I, if only for the sake of our mutual love for Roger." And, with tne music of the joyâ€"bells clanging through the reom, the young man clasped his earliest friend to his heart, The Great Fortune Made by Col. North in South Amscrica. to calm her agitation by his soothing words, an old lady, who was seated in an easy chair by the window advanced to meet them, and, to his utter surprise, Roger perceived that it was Mrs. Paimer. Drawing the trembling form of his wite closer to his side, the young man was about to speak, but his aunt interrupted him. Holding ous her thin, white hands to her nephew, she asked, reproachfully !
