STREET, OSHAWA, ; : date it was made as impossih of acoom- plishment; but the undertaking has bem almost realised in the present day. .The Great Westorn Railway Company have fo- cently inaugurated a service between Lom- don and the West of England, by which .| parties leaving London at a quarter be- fore noon can be in Bristol at 2.91 p.m, the 120 miles being run in 36 minutes over the time fixed by Brunel. The servies is continued over thé Bristol and Exetés Railway as far as Exeter, which city is - reached at 4 p. m., a journey of close upon 200 miles being thus'accomplished in fone and a quarter. It will be satisfactory to passengers to know that a special code of instructions has been drawn up with the view of rendering the journey ssfe as well as swift. The line ahead of the train is to be cleared fully ten minutes before it in due; stati sters are bound to be por sonally present when it passes through their station, in order to see that man is at his post; snd the rule, het " no goods, material, or any other tine are sent on in front, unless they can teach * the next station in time to shout," is very liberally interpreted in the interests "of ' the fastest train in tho world." The es- periment is au intercsting one to railway travellers, as its success or failure will pro- bably influence all the trunk lifes in "the Kingdom.

But, this was nd dasy thing to decide, | er asl had taken a positive dislike to my | | father's line of business, snd believing | that no one ever succeeded in that for which they had no care, I resolved to fol- | | low some other ocoupation. But what? That was the question--a question which I did not answer myself, | oy which was answered for me by s neigh- | bor's son, a young fellow of my own age | with whom I had formed a friendship, do | spite the fact that it was impossible théfe | should employ both our time snd capital, | Sonn have beon two men of more epposite but was surprised st not finding him at tempers in the world. * Why don't you go to India, George!" he remarked one evening when I had as- { sured him I did not know what best to be | at. " India is the place to make money, | and if I could only persuade my father to let me have the same sum as you have got, I'd join with you, and see if we oculd not make a fortune in a short time, that | wonld astonish our easy going, crawling | acquaintances in this cold clime of ours." Yes, India was the place for a young man with two hualrel pounds, a willing heart, and a good constitution; I was certain of that fact, though it had never struck me before, and to Iudia I resolved | tw go. { 1 made my arrangements quickly, and { as I stood on the deck of the vessel, while | the sailors weighed anchor, looking sadly * | at the throng ef persons gathered to see Overshoes, Rubbers, | us off, I was surprised at perceiving Dick | Barton spring on board, and my surprise { was not a little augmented, when the eap- | tain, striding forward, remarked -- _ *' Mr. Barton, we had nearly left you behind." Dick smiled, but --d nothing, and I could 'not but observe how deathly palo ho was, and with what a nervour manner he cast his glance slong the throng of persons in the deck. " Why, Dick, this is » surpgise!" I ssid, stepping up to him. "You 'never told | me you were going with me--when did you make up your mind to go I" Last night! no, no! 3 week 830," he roplied, in a confused tome, and with his glance roving uneasily to the shore. 1 observed both the tone and the look, saything | but sttributed them to emotions naturally called up by parting with nesr and dear 1n | frithds. 1 had none to part from, so eould nob be expected to feel as he did, leaving his native land. 1 made some common-place remsrk, and 5 | walked from his side, on perceiving his | agitation inoreass, and believing that he | would be all right again as s00a as we got out of sight of home. Something of his natural spirits did como back to him, as the shores of Eng- land faded slowly from our sight; but I observed with no little surprise that Dick gave a start and turned pale when accost- od suddenly, and that his eyes always iC | drooped before the steady gaze of any one on board. This was so different to the usual man: ner of the young fellow at home, but still I believed his thoughts were always on those he had left behind, and that his separation from home and kindred had blighted his onoe joyous heart, and crush- ed his exuberant spirits. As the long and tedious voyage, drew towards its close, and myself and fellow passengers began to congratulate ourselves upon beingrapidly nearing our destina- { to think uf business, and resolved to seek tic, the nervousness aad restessnons of " Why shonld I think so?" 1 asked.-- ""That you have surprised me by what you | you ever give a thought to me, don't cen- | sure too severely the man you once called | your friend." asser*,, I admit ; but I have no right to | doubt the truth of your assertion ; and, | believe me, Dick, I am glad' that your ! father could give you so good a start." The boat was ready to take us ashore, and no more was said upon the subject. -- | For some days we did nothing but look | | around us, and make ourselves acquainted | | with the g l spp of Calcutt At the expiration of a fornight, I began an interview with Dick, and come to a de- termination as to the manper in which we breakfast table. On making inquiry if he had not yet risen, I was informed that ho had sudden- ly left the hease but a fewminntes before, onl that an English gentloman, who had that morning arrived in a vo«sel from Eng- lana, had followed 'him quickly from the place. In a moment I remembered his strange manner since he stood en the deck of the vessel which brought us out from England, and the suspicion flashed through my mind that the person who had arrived that morning would be able to explain the mystery. To gather from the native servants the direction in which they had gone, and start out in pursuit, was the work of a very few minutes ; but 1 paused ere I had | taken a dosen steps,'and returned to my room, a suspicion, for which I even blam- ed myself, having flashed across my mind that I ought to sce if my money was se- | cure in the spot where I had placed it. | On reaching my room I was horror- struck to find that every farthing I possess- ed had been carried off, and I was penni- |: less in a foreign land. 1 sped from the house, making known my loss to the owners and servants there- of, as | hurried along, in the hope that I might overtake the man on whom I now looked with the abhorrence of disappoint- ed friendship. Two of the native servants also gave chase to Barton, snd these I soon ont. stripped, snd left far behind, and a¥ sach a speed did I pass over the ground that I mast have gone quite a mile in six or seven mingtes, when, panting for breath, I seized hold of the gates of 5 mansion, snd felt I could go no further: But even as the thought floated through my mind, all my strength returned, ss I percejyed the form of the man I songht glide swiftly round the house, in the shad. ow of a hoary clump of trees. | I sprang forward and seized him by the arm. For a moment ho appeared stupe- fied, then recovering himself he struck my hand from its hold, and would have bound- od away, but again I soized him, and ex- claimed -- " Richard Barton, where is my money ! Give me that and go your way. I have been deceived In you. You are hunted for some crimo--even now you are flesing from justice." ¢ Let go your hold," he cried fiercely. "I'll never be taken for that robbery-- never! Iknow thoy have tracked me here, bi § there'll be blood-letting before they take mea prisoner. Let go, George Haler, or I'll kill you!" But I retained my hold, and struggling we fell to the ground.
