Nothing? \thu I, and I only, realized the nature of the blow that was about to fall? On the one hand, there was the true Reginald Gervase, my more than friend, brother, and father, who had plainly been able to free himself of the old shadow, trusted, honoured, loved by whose whole life was a growth in goodness and usefulness, and whose loss would be public as well as pri- vate, and felt nonc could guess how far round There was the wife, who believed in him as a hero, and who loved him with There were his young childrenâ€"what need I say of them?

The cliff. itself a promontory, rose up shccr from the rocks for some distance, then bowed out over them, and then finished its course of some hundred and fifty feet to the over- hanging path on which I was standing. All this meant, in a dozcn words, that he who found himself alone on the L‘arricks half an hour below the tide turned would be a dead man in half an hour, for there was no point among the network of currents which the strongest swimmer could ho to ’u.

As fast as I could cover the ground I was at the wash station, only to find a single old sailor on what was by courtesy called duty. a strong fellow enough, With any quantiton rope at hand; but what could in: sun do! 5 W 'oihin curtainl' . wit out trying. e mould & to theyedge of the cliff rope h to reach the Lari-inks twice over. mat wsa little.

I looked at my watch, and . the sailor looked out to sea. There was no jbnt that could be signalled, and not nearly , time to obtain one for ourselves and to row round. The question of the boat was settled in a single look from one to the other. But the same look set the sailor's wits working. ” Run to the station," he said to the let- ter-carrier, “and get all the oars you can lay your hands on, and bring them here,and look alive.” He craned over the edge of the th, and so did I, though more cautiously ; at there were no means of seeing anything more in that way. The seahad already risen in a surge of white foam and dark green casades over nearly the whole length of the rocks below, so that any prisoner upon them must have been driven for respite from death un- der the bulging part of the cliff, where she would be altogether out of sight of all but the sea~gulls. Then the old sailor looked out westward, where a broken patch of white and gray cloud seemed to be rising from the sea into the sky in the shape of a spire. “The wind won’t be here till after the turn, Sir," said he. " There won’t be so much swing on as there mi ht be." He put his hands to his month an shouted down- ward, but no answer returned. “ “'here’s that young slug with the cars 3" I c'-uld only hope he had some plan. I certainly could think of none. Perhaps, though as anxious as any human creature must be when a man or woman is drowning under his eyes, and when he can do nothing but wait above and listen for the dead heave of full tide against the cliff to tell him all was over, I may not have been so absorbed in the emergency as I should have been two or three hours ago. What was a moment’s struggle with the sea compared with that worse than death against which I was try- ing to put out my hands no less in vain? I was not, I feel sure, at that moment cou- sciously thinking of the greater ril in the immediate face of the less ; but t at it was the greater which had well-nigh paralyzed me I know. At last the lad hurried back with four long ours. The old sailor laid them all to- get er, fagot-wisc and bar-wise, over a cleft in the edge of the path, so that the bundle of oars might serve for one strong beam,and that the rope might run through the cleft fora groove before swinging from the pro~ 'ecting rim of the cliff out into the air. The sum of ours was kept from being pulled for- ward instead of downward by the form of the path, which rose up slightly toward the edge, and by the chanceâ€"on which the whole plan dependedâ€"that the natural gut- ter ran between two cars of crag just high enough to serve as posts for the beam be- hind them. He fastened one end of our longest line of rope, with practiced skill, round the middle of the oars; he had al- ready made the other and into a noose, as soon as his ready eyes had taken in at a glance the chances of the ground. He paid out the whole rope over the edge of the clifi‘; there was no time left for arguing about who should go down. Indeed, I felt as if forced by an impulse from outside myself to take that matter into my own hands. lt is true, I was a great deal younger and by so much the more active than the old tar, who was still as strong in the arms and shoulders as tugging at oars can make a man, but had certainly not been in the habit, as I had been, of spending his leisure in clambering among rocks instead of staring through a spy-glass at the ofiing ; so that I was likely to feel a great deal more at home among the gulls and cormoranfs than be. There was every reason for plac- at the noose. But had it been otherwise I should have stood upon my rights, as repre- senting the lord of the manor, to do as I pleased above the line of high water. Do something I mustâ€"something, anything which had the semblance of helping a living creature, however unconnected it might be with the storm that was gathering over the head of my friend. As I have said, there was no time left for a needless word ; I took my way, and, resolutely thinking of nothing but of keeping my eyes fixed on the highest visible part of the cliff, was, before a word could be spoken, letting myself down the rope with my knees and hands. It Was not that I had room left in my heart to care, save in the most general way, for the woman on the Carricks. I was in anything but a philanthropic mood, or in one that would excite me to risk a sprained wrist for any soul on earth but Reginald Gervase. It was all sheer impulse: neither foolhardiness on the one hand, nor courage on the other. I claim no credit for the climb ; rather blame. It could in no wise be of the smallest help to Gervase ; on the contrary, I was risking the only life that could in any way hope to aid him. Only I had no hope for him left in me, in the face of the proofs and of the woman in whose bands they were. It all came from just what I have said, the overwhelming hunger for action of any sort or form. Of course ouridcawas to fasten whomscever I might find below to the loose end of the rope, in the hope that the sailor, with what- ever help the letter-carrier could give him, would be able to draw her if , and then let down the rope again, so that I might follow. With a view to the first part of the work, I carried down with me a second rope to fas- steu to the noose and to act as a guide from below, so that she might not swing against the face of the cliff on her upward journey. As to my own return, I might manage a good deal by climbing, or I might, at any ratc, be pulled up far enough to swing above the tide until further help should come. At last I stood upon the last slab of slip- pery rock which the son had not wholly cov- ered. There was just room enough upon it for two. And I stood face to face with A‘lrionuo Lavallcâ€"nay, I must call her soâ€" Lady Gervase. Why had she been brought here, out of the reach of all aid but mine? Why had the tidings of her peril been brought to me! What was the true nature of that impulse which had brought moâ€"-mo of all menâ€"face to face with her thus, and here 2, Think of the first sentence of this history ! “'c were absolutely, utterly alouo together, unseen even from the cliffs that rose up be- hind us two and the whole world.

Surely the ways of justice are not the same as human law. For the sake of oihcrs we must punish what, for the sake of others, we must call crimes: but we do not call crimes, necessarily, sins, and what we con- demn with our cold reason we may in our hearts and souls approve.

I was absolutely making plans. I could leave her thereâ€"it would not be my fault if she were found drowned. The body could be recovered at low water, and buried, and nobody would be the wiser. I must give up Lottie, of course ; it was one thing to com- mit a murder, but quite another to make her the wife of a murderer. even though of one who bad right on his side. I could take it into my head toleave England, and should soon be forgotten. “ Can you save me?’ she said, at last. “ W’hat are you going to do with me 2" " I 2 with you 3" I asked. “ God knows. That are you doing with Reginald Gcrvase? Look, the tide will be waist-high soon. I am his friend. Are your rights or is your life the dearer to you? But I can't trust you.” I turned faint and sick at heart. H w could I nerve myself, even for his sake, to be strong to let this weak woman die? Sudden- ly a heavy wave swept over the rock, brought her to her knees, and would have carried her into deep water at once had I not instinctively thrown the noose round her and held her so. It must be done, though ; it was some weaker self that had saved her for a minute more. “ You can save me, and you bid me sell my rights for my life I” she said, with nail scorn, and with a courage that startled me. “Yes, you say truly; you are his friend. Like master, like man.” Should I have held her there till she was drowned? Should I have been able to face the unspeakable shame of returning to the cliff alone, or should I have waited there un- til the tide had covered me also 2 I say to myself, and I say to you, what I said to iuy- self. God knows. I trust not ; but I have never very confidently believrd in the good- ness of the good or the badness of the bad, or the weakness of the weak or the strength of the strong, since that day. " “ Ahoy, there! Hold on I" I heard a shout, and the grind of wood on the rock, and the unsbippxng of oars. I think we were both in the boat before we knew where we were. She was saved without my help, and 1â€"1 scarce know from what, if from any- thing, I had been saved. Sir Reginald himself was at the helm. “'hat could I do now?

I waited in vain. “ Thank God I saw you from the yacht in time I” said he. “ It was like you, old fol- low, to try to break your neck for nothing, but I don't think both of you could have got up without damage. May I ask the name of the lady whom I have been lucky enough to â€"â€"Allow me to introduce myself.” “I am Lady Gcrvasel" she said, with a scoruful look at me. “ I thank you, Sir,for saving my lifeâ€"" “ Lady Gcrvase l” “ You seem surprised?

O«.>â€"¢â€"F_â€" Whaling from San Francisco. [From Brcnlano‘sMonihlyJ Considerable numbers of whales can be found at all seasons of the year in the ocean adjacent to this art, and within a distance that can be ensi y traversed in a day. Be- twceu the 1st of May and the fat of October is the most favourable season for fishing, on account of the calm weather generally pre- vailing. The varieties of whales which m1 be caught in this vicinity are the sulphur bottom, which is about 130 feet long, the largest in the world, and weighs in the neighbourhood of 200 tons, yielding a small quantity of valuable bone, but being rich in oil; the humpback, weighing 120 pounds; the California grays, 80 tons, and finbscks and blackfish form the remainder. Sperm whales, which are valuable on account of the large quantity of spermaccti which they yield, are but rarely found in our waters, and prove a valuable addition to a vessel’s catch. Capt. Thomas thitelnw has con- structed a little screw steamer, 65 feet long, 16 feet wide, and 9 feet deep, with which he intends to begin the business of whaling out- side the heads. She will be entirely decked over, so that a sea can go completely over her without causing damage. She is built very strOngly, and is deeper than ordinary, so that she can be drawn some distance into the water by a whale, to which she may be made fast. without danger. The mode of killing whales adopted by this vessel is by the whaling rocket, or bomb-lance, which can be discharged from the vessel, which method assesses considerable advantage over the o (1 style of hunting whales in a boat and with a hand-lance. The ex ctations are that an average of 10 fish will e caught each month. When a whale is dispatched, the steamer will tow him into port and land him at the reduction works, where the CE!" cass will be treated to an improved process by which every portion will be utilized. “'lien a whale is caught at sea, the blubber is stripped off and the bone removed, after which the carcase is set adrift and floats around until completely devoured by sharks and birds.

Whitehw the lab Wlll be cut into sections, and without discriminating b:- twccn blubber, flesh, or bones, will be )lflCtd in large steam-tight tanks made of Her- plsfes, into. which steam at a high pressure and temperature will be introduced, which will have the eerct of completely digesting the rum and separating the oil, which will be then drawn off. The process will be com- pleted in about eight hours, when the resic due of flesh and bones will be taken our, dried, and afterward ground together to prn~ does a fertilizer.

He left them about a hundred miles out, sud expects them to reach here about Friday or Saturday next. The party numbers two hundred and seventy-seven people. THERE has been some loud talk amongst the Indians at Edmonton, and threats were freely indulged in. The present situation may be learned from the following telegram of the 30th :K” Samson, Ermine Skin, and Bobtail, Cree chiefs, made large demands on the Government, and when refused talked freely of helping themselves. To-da ' they came with an apology, and accepte what was given to them." 0N and about the 27th, the Assinboines of Mosquito’s band, numbering one hundred and sixty-four souls, arrived from the south. They presented a wretched appearance, and their haggard looks bore testimony to the hardships they had endured on their trip. The Pouudmaker and Strike-him-on-the- Back -with their followers came in to meet them and have a council. The result of this was a demand for an extravagantnmouut of provisions. coupled with the suggestion that if it was not forthcoming “ they might be under the necessity of taking it.” On the 30th a conference of the bands and Mr. Orde was held, which ended in their getting a large amount of provisions for immediate use without arriving at any understanding as to the future. o “Tunv ALL no i'r."â€"For beautifying the teeth and preserving, for sweetening and giving fragrance to the Breath use "Tea.- berry " the new Toilet gem delightfully cooling and refreshing.

The Toronto Exhibition promises to be by far the best that has ever been held in the Dominion, judging from the elaborate and costly preparations that are being made for it. Notwithstanding the fact that Hamilton will have the Provincial, and Montreal the so-called Dominion Exhibition, Toronto bids fair to outstrip them all. The greatest credit is due to the Directors for the enterprise they have shofvn and the public spirit With which they have arranged everything that cm insure its success. There is little doubt but Toronto’s exhibi- tion will overshadow that of the Ambitious City, and that which will be held at Mon- treal, notwithstanding its pretentious name, Toronto can afford to ignore. Besides the features usual to such exhibitions, there will be several specialties likely to attract par- ticular attention. Manitoba sends an ex- hibit of its products which will be doubtless even superior to that which it sent to last Exhibition. Prince Arthur’s Landing Will also be represented, and, in short, every- thing will be done and every inducement of- fered to attract not only visitors from all parts of Canada and the States but even from the mother-country as well. Bands will be secured to play on the grounds during every day of the exhibition, and no doubt every other arrangement will be made to secure the fullest satisfaction to sight-seen! and “the highest enjoyment to holiday-makers. 6004* Winning a. Wife. “There is dothing,” says Lord Shaftes- bury, “ which is so merely fortune and more committed to the power of blind chance than marriage.” A curious illustration of his meaning comes to us from the staid old town of Franklin, Muss. At an evening party there a cutleman challenged a charming young wi ow to try her fortune at Bassino.

Standard Fire Insurance Company. (Toronto Daily Globe, Juno 2, 1880.) In another column will be found the re- port of the proceedings at the third annual meeting of the shareholders of the Standard Fire Insurance Company held in Hamilton. Its continued prosperity is exhibited in.tho large increase in its business, the premium income having increased from $47,000 in 1873 to $74,500 for the year just clrsed. The losses incurred during the year in pro- portion to premiums received are about 30 per cent, which compared with the figures embodied in the report and taken from the Government returns of all the Dominion companies for 1879, shows the Standard in a favourable posifion. The Company hav- ing passed so successfully through its third yearâ€"usually regarded as the critical one-â€" may expect under equally careful manage- ment a prosperous futurc.
