C,; SATURDAY, MAY 27, 1882.\nNUMBER 42\nElectors, Consider Your\nVerdict!\nTht) contention of the. local organ\nthat' outside of tho present cabinet\nthere is not to lie found in the country, a man fit, to be a minister', is a\nwanton libel upon the people. There\nis not a constituency in the province,\nexcepting, perhaps, Kootenay, which\ncould not. furnish three better men\nthan the present ministers. It is\nby deeds, not words, we would have\nthese men judged. ' Submit them to\nthe' crucial test of tlieir own nets,\nand they must stand utterly condemned at the bar of public opinion.\nLook at tlie sheaves of bad laws\nthey have passed. Look at their\nfearful catalogue of blunders and\n'deceptions in dock-building, causing\nii charge of at least half a million\nupon the revenues of the province\n| for what wns not, and ought not, to\niliuve cost it \"a single dollar.\" Look\nat their outrageous and unconstitu-\n| tional attempts to swindle the strug-\ni filing settlers by adding 24 per cent.\nto what they owed on their homesteads, and then extorting 18 per\ncent interest on the whole ! Look\nnt their refusal to provide common\n(schools for important settlements,\nwhile at the sumo time they have\n[employed , large sums of the public\nrevenue in giving the wealthiest and\nleast tax-paying community in tbe\ncountry a free high school education!\nLook ut their persistent refusal,\n'upon tho plea of wunt of money,\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2to provide roads or repair bridges by\n'which settlers would be spared great\n^convenience, loss and, iu some in-\nIstances, actual danger to life and\nproperty, while at tho same time\nthey have been squandering many\nthousands of the people's money in\nmaintaining at Ottawa, with an\noccasional trip ovor to London, it\n''tadpole\" who is only keeping alive\na stupid quarrel with a Government\niriendly to the Province. Look at\nhese and many other acts which\nmeuk louder than words, and say\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2vhat you think of the audacious indolence of claiming for these men a\nMonopoly of the statesmanship uud\n1'utriotism of the country. On\nlondity last there occurred ono of\nIioae instances constantly, tiiinspir-\nrig, illustrative of the necessity for\n'a efficient ferry across the Feasor\naver ut this place. Mr. Norris, a\n|.rmer on the prairie six miles\n[ick of Langley, having sold a\nVso to Mr. Rousseau of this city,\nide tho animal down the trunk\nlad to Brownrille, expecting to\nf*e it ferried over and delivered\nthe purchaser. But after search-\nfor half the day for some means\n. ferrying the animal over, he went\nlick aud took it homo again, intend-\ng to have it shipped from Langley\n[-' the Brat steamer. Now, wo may\njssibly bo told that we are making\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0o much ado about a settler having\n'st a day and travelled some thirty\nties in a fruitless attempt to de-\n(cr a horse in this market; but\nIt we have merely mentioned this\nLitance as an illustration of what\nhappening every day, through tho\n[gleet of tho Government to take\nii necessary steps for the estttblish-\nf nt of an efficient steam ferry, or\n, efficient ferry of any kind, at\n|s point But it is not alone tliose\njo make unsuccessful or expensive\n.'d unsatisfactory attempts to reach\n.s market witli their produce.\n|e)k at the influence of such a con-\nSon of things. Think of the\nidroda ef instances in which.\n>\ving the difficulties of reaching\nj market, the settlers do not mako\n\ attempt at all. That man must\nfiled be obtuse who cannot see that\n(j, isolation of this murket, owing\nji to the absence of facile means\nrSmuiuiiication with, the surround-\n\u00C2\u00AB; settlements, will inevitably rein ruining its trade. We ara\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0' aware that a recital df the pri\nns and losses of the settlers on\nMainland will awaken little con\ncern at James Bay, Bat it is fitting\nthat, on this the eve of a general\nelection, such matters should he fully\nand fairly discussed, if order that\nthere may be an inteilifBiit and vigorous application of till great constitutional' remedy\u00E2\u0080\u0094in 'order that\nthe electors may, by mark* upon their\nballot papers, truly input* their\nopinion of these men, who, while\nexhibiting such stolid disregard of\nthe best interests of the most im\nportant class\u00E2\u0080\u0094the fanners\u00E2\u0080\u0094havo,\nby incompotenoy .mm ohicanery,\nbrought the country Into a sorry\nplight. It is no snap verdict that\nis asked of the country. It is no\nparty vote the electors are asked to\ncoBt. What we ask aud implore\nthem to do is closely and impartially\nto scrutinize the acts bf the men\nnow in power ; and if they condemn\nthem, thou let them so exercise their\nfranchise us to place men' in the\nnew House who will put the affairs\nof the Province upon a sound basis,\nand' aid and encourage all classes of\nthe people to unite in a \"long pull\naiid a strong pull\" so as to enable\nthe country to take full advantage\nof'the tide of prosperity which ought\nto flow from railway development.\nr.t. wiluams, j Popular Mfarket\nB'\nOOK BINDER, PAPER RULER, |\naud Blank Book Manufacturer.\nMaps aiul Drawing Paper Mounted.\nFiles of Magazines, Illustrated Papers,\neto,, neatly and cheaply Bound.\nGovernment Street.

The result uf\nsue*, extension waa apparent in 1831\nby tho greatly increased' run of the\nsalmon. In 1880 nver ton million\npounds of tish were caught, and in\n1881 the catch was estimated to be\nover fifteen million pounds, au increase\nof 50 per cent. This your it in supposed thero will bo a larger increase.\nThis is confirmatory uf tbe wisdom\nevinced in tlie enactment, of statutes\nguarding tlie fish during the close season. Tlio Fisli Com mission era have\nfur ten years obtained Btntmtics from\nthe canneries of the quantities of tish\ncaught. On the strength of this information the Fish Commissioners\nhave been able to conduct tlieir operations intelligently. The -lUpply of fish\nhas been so largely increased by these\nintelligent efforts that new canneries\nhavo buen able to start, and thu older\ninstitutions have been able to increase\nthoir capacity and product. It is just\nas necessary to the welfare uf thu.caii*\nneries as it is for the guidance of the\nFish Commissioner tlmt all tlie information in the possession uf canneries\nand fishermen concerning tbe catch\nand movements of the salmon iu Sacramento river and its tributaries should\nbe freely communicated to tlio Commissioners The very existence of the\ncanneries depends upon a proper and\nsytematic continuance, of the supply,\nwhich exporie'nee has proven must be\nartificially maintained.\nTo which King, Morso & Co, replied:\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nEditor Bulletin.\u00E2\u0080\u0094Interested parties aro at present engaged iu au attempt to \"bear\" tho canned salmon\nmarket. We notice by an editorial in\nyour columns ou Saturday evening an\nitem that will probably assist this\nmovement, which we take it, is not\nyour aim ur intention. We believe in\ntho fish canneries, and consider their\nundertakings laudable, and know that\nthoir efforts havo met with a fair meed\nof success, but the statement iu your\nleader is, to say the least, premature,\nas there is at present but a Blight run\nof fish in tlio Sacramento, and not one\nof the canneries is running .cm more\nthan quarter time. Experienced libher-\nmeu predict a small run fur the entire\nseason, and at this writing we are inclined tu agree with them. At all\nevents, a 50 per cent, increase ovor\nlast year's run, or oven a run that will\nbegin to equal it, is at this late date\nalmost beyond probability, although\nour interests (having recently invested\na large sum of money un the theory of\nthe fish canneries, that a large run\nwould certainly be insured this season),\nwould prompt us to hope as long as\nthere was anything to hang a hope ou,\nThe frequency uf the main points iu\nyour article iu the public prints, loads\nus to believe that it is not official front\nthe canneries.

We supposed everybody knew that the pretended opposition of Ministers to Chinese immigration was mere affectation; but we\nconfess wo expected them to carry\ntbe sham to the extent of sending\nsome remonstrance, however wheyey,\nto Ottawa. Up to the present time\nwe ware disposed to hold the Federal\nGovernment responsible to a great\nextent for allowing the province to\ndrift into this pestilential yellow\ntide; but it would now appear that\nwe, to some extent at least, wronged\nthe Government. It is perfectly true\nthat at least one of tho representatives from British Columbia had, in\nhis peculiar way, a good deal to say\nin the House of Commons against\nChinese immigration ; but, as a Bet\noff to that, it should be remembered\nthat another member from this province, in tbe Upper House, had expressed very different views, claim\ning for the Chinese that they were\nin a measure a necessity here, and\nthat tbey were really more moral\nand well-behaved than the Caucasian\nnets. Sir John Macdonald can\nhardly bo blamed if, hearing these\nconflicting statements, and receiving\nno expression or remonstrance from\nthe Provincial Government, he remained under the impression that\n'Columbia had no grievance of the\nkind. It could hardly be expected\nthat he would go a-lisliing for a\ngrievance for a province which had\nshown no backwardness in making\nknown its wants. Under these circumstances, and viewing tbe matter\nin the light of Sir John's remarks\nthe other day, one cannot longer\nhesitate to admit that the Local\nGovernment must be held responsible for the present extremely unsatisfactory state of affairs in this regard, and it is all the more aggravating when it is seen how apparent.\nIy ready tbe Government at Ottawa\nwould have been to step forward and\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0apply a remedy, did occasion arise.\nIt would appear from the Premier's\nrecent utterances that he would have\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2been only too happy to have acted in\nthe matter had there been uny complaint. But while rendering the past\nmore aggravating, this phase gives\nhope for the future, inasmuch as it\nconstructively conveys the assuranee\nthat tbe Dominion Government will\nbe quiok to hear and to act, when\nmade properly aware of our grievance. We desire now to direct attention for a moment to the ruinous folly of permitting the present state of\nthings to continue. It is reckoned\nthat considerably more than thirty\nmillions will be expended on railway\nwork in the Mainland part of this\nprovince during the next four or five\nyean. Possibly three or four mil\nlions more may be added for Island\nrailway work. Only a littlo over two\nmillion! baa yet been spent. This\nstatement may aid the reader in ap\nproximately grasping the enormity\nof the labor question involved. Just\nthink what the consequences must\nbe if mattan are allowed to drift on\nin tho future as in the past\u00E2\u0080\u0094no or\nganized effort made to introduce Caucasian labor, and the ever swelling\ntide of what is really slave labor still\nrolling in from Asia, Is the reader\n\u00C2\u00BBware of this fact, Every Mongolian\nworker imported for the railway\ncontractor coats in the first instance\n$100. In other words, the sum of\n$100 apiece is advanced to the company dealing in this Mongolian stook,\nleaa than one half of whicli oovors\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2xpenses, tho balance representing\nthe manstealer's preliminary profits.\nThe railway contractor, of course, is\nsupposed to deduct this advance\nbonus from the wages of his bondman. Now what we desire to point\nout i*. this: Under a broad and well\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2figest*\"! scheme, a similar advance\nwould suffice to bring a first-rate\nclass of Englishmen and Irishmen\nand Scotchmen from thcOld Country;\nand who will say that one of these\nwould not represent more real value\nto the country than two, aye, than\nhalf-a-dozen, of those 1 And think,\n0 think, of tbe tens of thousands in\ntho Old Country to whom such a\ntranslation would be the highest\nearthly blessing. If these figures be\ncorrect, it seems little less than a\ncrime to allow the destructive yellow\ntide to continue to flow in and the\nimpoverishing stream of gold to flow\nout, whon all these millions might\nbo retained nnd devoted towards\ncreating large and prosperous communities of onr own race and religion, through whose instrumentality\nthe vast resources of this country\nwould be developed for the country's\ngood. This is a large question, which\nshould not bo left to the railway\ncontractor or to the Dominion Government or to the Provincial Govern\nment; but, all three being directly\nand deeply interested in it, all three\nshould take hold of it concurrently\nand work out an efficient scheme.\nAs a matter of course, it is for tho\nProvincial Government to take tlie\ninitiative, and it will be well for this\nquestion to be freely discussed at the\napproaching election, in order that\nthe new government may not be left\nin doubt as to the mind and will of\nthe constituencies. For our own\npart, we believe this to be one of\nthe most important subjects demanding attention at the present time.\nCANARY BIRDS.\nA FEW CHOICE SINGERS FOR\nSale, nt 95.00 each. Enquire at\nthe Columbia House,\nJ. CUNNINGHAM.\nNew West., May 20, 1882. my27-lm\nEditorial Notes.\nThose who rushed over to Alberni a\nshort time ago for the purpose of securing land at an imaginary railway\nterminus are naturally very indignant\nbecause of the subsequent action of\nIndian Commissioners Powell and\nO'Reilly in reserving the land fur\nIndian purposes. While we have\nnot very much sympathy with the\n\"grabbers,\" we cannot see quite clearly\nhow the Dominion authorities can step\niu and reserve or in any manner deal\nwith these lands. Certainly they cannot do bo without the concurrence of\nthe Provincial Government, - unless,\nindeed, by the disallowance of the Act\nof last session, repealing the Act of\n1875 which conveyed these lands to\nthe Dominion. It is stated that those\nwho located lands at Alberni are going\nto contest their claims, and consequent\ndevelopments will therefore be looked\nfor with somo interest.\nThere can be no question that the\nsteam service between Victoria nnd the\nMainland is anything but satisfactory,\nand it is not surpfising that movements are on foot looking to a remedy\nthat wilt probably take the breath\naway from five-and-a-!ialf-miles-an-\nhour steamboat men. Such a service\nas the people havo been compelled to\nsubmit to for some time past would\nnot be tolerated for a moment in any\nother part of tho civilized world and\ncannot possibly be endured much\nlonger here. It affords us very great\nsatisfaction, therefore, to learn that\nthere is a scheme ou foot which wilt\ncompletely revolutionize our relations\nwith the outside world. We are not\nat liberty at the present time to indicate the nature of tho scheme; but\nthis much we may be permitted to say,\nthat if it should not prove altogether\nsatisfactory to our friends beyond the\ngulf, they will only have themselves to\nblame. The Mainland has submitted\nlong enough to the 51 mile an hour\nbusiness and to the serums delays and\nexpense consequent upon her commerce and travel and mails passing\nthrough a circuitous and unnatural\nchannel. _\nThe prospect of a brisk demand at\nfair prices for Fraser river salmon is\ngood. As was shown in a previous\narticle a great deal nf the Columbia\nriver pack is likely to find a now market iu the Eastern States, thus leaving\nthe Old Country markets clear for our\nown. Add to this the faot that thero\nia a growing demand for canned salmon\nin tho Old Country as well as in the\nEastern Provinces and that the yield\nof Sacramento river promises to be\nonly about one-half of what it was lost\nyear, whilo that of Columbia river is\nscarcely better, and the reasons\nfor more than ordinary preparations\ngoing on for tho Fraser river fish harvest are explained. Last year there\nwere eight canning establishments in\noperation. This yeur there wilt be\ntwelve, if not thirteen. The great\ndesideratum now is a good, prolonged\nrun of fish. Everything depends upon\nthat. Of course, there is the labor\ndifliculty to be overcome; but should\nthere be plontyof fish, labor will be\ngot somehow, although it may be dear.\nThe employment of so many of tho\nLower Fraser Indians on the railway\nworks at $2 a day is sure to exert a\nmore or less injurious influence upon\nthe fishing industry. This labor question in a most serious one, affecting\nevery industry in tho country, and the\nsooner a satisfactory solution can be\nfound the better.\nCaledonia & St. Andrews\nSociety!\nTHE REGULAR QUARTERLY\nMeeting of the Caledonia k St.\nAndrews Society will be held at tho Good\nTemplars' Hall on MONDAY, 20th inst.,\nat S p. in.\nWM.

If reciprocity\ncan he established between the Dominion uf Canada and the Hawaiian Islands, wo might not only recover that\ntrade, but increase it very materially.\nBritish Columbia can supply them\nwith fish, lumber, coal nud other products; and you, in the present state of\nyour manufactures iu the Hastem Provinces, will be able to supply them\nwith all tlio machinery and all tho\ndescriptions of manufactures they may\nroquire. In return, you will bo able\nto tako their sugar, fruit and other\nproducts for which there is now a large\nand growing market in British Columbia, and which v'U bo increased by\nthe opening up t' the North-West\nwhen tho railway is finished. Taking\nthis view of tho matter, it is very de-\nsirnble that some action should bo\ntaken for the purpose of establishing\nreciprocity between the Dominion and\nthe Hawaiian islands, more particularly as tho present treaty between the\nUnited States and those Islands is\nlikely to come to a sudden end, if we\nare to judgo of tho feeling between\nthem and the United States. Should\nthat treaty cease and a reciprocity\ntreaty be established between the Dominion and those Islands, I believe\ntho result would bo highly beneficial\nto both contracting parties.

I was astonished, I own,\naud in a measure gratified; one naturally is gratified at finding oneself suddenly rich when one had least reason\nto expect to bo anything of the kind.\n\"But there are shades tu the picturo\nand drawbacks to tho advantages, and\nyou, my dear Lizzie, with your tender\nheart, will easily understand when I\nexplain that my joy is not unmixed.\nIt seems that tlie Mrs. Conisbrough\nwhom 1 told you about, and who lives\nwith hor daughter.' at Yoresett, the\nmarket town, had always been given\nto understand that she would inherit\nthe property.\n\"My grandfather's will was made\nonly the night beforo he died, in a fit\nof pique, for some reason wliich no\nono seems able tu understand. They\nare entirely ignored\u00E2\u0080\u0094not even mentioned in it. Mrs. Conisbrough and\nher eldest daughter wero present at\ntho reading of tho will. The pour\nlady has taken it very iuucb to heart:\nher means are exceedingly small, and\nshe thinks the will a most unjust one.\n(So do I, for that matter-\" ggre-\ngiously unjust will.) And s' threatens to dispute it. She will have, no\nchance, of course, but I feel my hands\nin a measure tied until I know tlio\nworst sho can do, and until some compromise is come to for hor benefit.\nMeantime, sho is ill up stairs in this\nvory house! her agitation having\nbrought on an attnek of tho heart.\nSho is attended by hor daughter, for\nwhom I feel vory sorry. I feel sorry\nfor them all. They aro gentlewomen,\naud evidently have had a hard struggle\nall thoir lives. Thero is such a sad,\npatiunt, yet dignifiud expression upon\nMiBs Cunisbrmigh's faco. Sho cannot\nbut command respect and admiration.\nI wish you knew hor. One dreams\nfast sometimes, and -inco this morning I have boen dreaming of you settled horo, and myself, having ell'ected\na compromise with Mrs. Conisbrough,\nnnd proved to her that I am not the\nrapacious upstart she takes me fur\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nand of you and tho Misses Conisbrough getting on very well together,\nand being great friends. I think this\nis not so foolish as most dreams. J\nseo no reason why it should not come\ntrue. ty'm Conisbrough is as fur as\npossible from being forbidding, though\nshe looks so grave, and I am bui*o\nyour winning ways would soon make\nher love you. This is a most beautiful old place\u00E2\u0080\u0094very different from the\ndin and dust of the town. To-morrow I must try to make a little skotch\nof the lako and the house, and send\nyou them. As soon as I can snatch\nthe time I shall run over to Irkford\nand see you, and discuBS future plans.\nI can hardly realize that our wudding,\nwhich wo thought must wait forsu\nmany years, need not now bo long\ndoferred\u00E2\u0080\u0094no longer than a certain\nwillful young, woman chooses to put it\noff. Romember me to your mother*\nand Heaven bless you, my own darling, is Hie wish of your faithful Bweet\nheart, \"Bernard Agmonby, '\nHis heart warmed as ho wrote the\nwords, and thought of his beautiful\nLizzie, and cherished his little plan of\nmaking her and the Misses Conisbrough into great friends. Poor Bernard! Ho wruto out of the fullness of\nhis heart, not out of his knowledge of\neither men or women.\nHo had chosen to remain at Scar\nFoot rather than accept Mr. Whaley's\ninvitation that ho would return with\nhim to Yoresett and bo his guest. Mr.\nWhaley mny oasily be pardoned for\nnot having surmised for a moment,\nwhat Aglionby's demeanor certainly\ndid not suggest, the unspoken impulse\nwhich urged hiin to remain- -the longing whicli lay deep at hit heart, to become better acquainted, in silence and\nundisturbed, with this old place whore\nhis fathers had lived, and where now\nhe was to live after them; to imbibe,\nas it were, sumo ideas of tho life, of\nthe homo, tbat was to be his. Unspoken though it was, the sentiment,\nthe desire, was there. Deop down in\nbis rough heart, aud crusted over with\ntlie bitterness which with him came\ntoo readily to the surface, there wero\nwalls of something vory like romance\nand sentiment. Since this morning a\nthousand schemes had come crowding\ninto his mind, a thousand not wholly\nselfish plans and purposes, which now\nhe could carry out to his heart's con-\ntout. All his poetic instincts had been\ncramped, if not warped, by the life he\nhad ted, but under his unpromising\nexterior thero they wore\u00E2\u0080\u0094thoy did\nexist; and it was they and they alone\nwhieh had prompted him to refuse Mr,\nWhaley's invitation.\nHis sleep, un that first night that ha\nrested under this roof, was sweet and\nundisturbed. When Sunday morning\ndawned, and ho awoke, he at first\ncould not imagine where he was, so\nprofound was the silence, except for\nthu chirping birds and the smothered\nrush of the brook at the back of the\nhouso. Gradually his senses returned\nto him. He remembered it all, sprung\nout of bed, went to the window, and\nlifted tho blind.\nThe air of tho October morning was\nsharp; thu sun was brilliant, tho atmosphere cloar; tbe view before him\nstruck with a strange thrill upon him\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094a thrill half pleasure, half pain. The\nclear moors just opposite; the dimmer\nforms of the great fells behind them;\ntho glittering silver surface of the little hike; the garden just under his\neyes, filled with homely flowers, and\nwith the groon field beyond, sloping\ndown to the water's edge\u00E2\u0080\u0094it was, indeed, very fair for anyone who had eyes\nto see! But to him it, was more\u00E2\u0080\u0094it\nwas a revelation; there was tho peculiar stillness of a country Sunday\nmorning over it all; it was the end of\ntho world. Most of us are acquainted\nwith one sensation\u00E2\u0080\u0094that of arriving at\nsome seaside place\u00E2\u0080\u0094of sleeping soundly all night; of awakening tho next\nmorning, and on looking out, finding\noneself confronted by the open Boa.\nThat is a sensation which nevor grows\nold ur stale. Something of the thrill\nand joy which attends its first time of\nbeing experienced, hangs also about\neach recurrence of it. It was with just\nsuch a sensation that Bernard Aglionby's eyes rested now on the prospect\nbefore him. Vague, unconscious contrasts wero formed in his mind\u00E2\u0080\u0094this\nplace and that\u00E2\u0080\u0094Scar Foot on a Sunday\nmorning, and 13 Crane Street on n\nSunday morning! He opened the window, and inhaled the puro, frosty,\nfragrant air\u00E2\u0080\u0094Arcadian air. It was\nvery early, ho found, not yet six\no'clock; but going t Vd again was a\nthing not tu be thought of; and he\ndressed, went down stairs, and out of\ndoors, and walked to the lakeside with\nthu feeling that be was in a dream. It\nwas as wonderful to him, and certainly\nquite as agreeable, as her first ball to\na girl of seventeen who has been\nbrought up in strict seclusion. Hi\nwondered at tho intensity of his own\nenjoyment, and its naivete.\n\"it is hereditary, I supposo,\" he\nthought, ''and I can't help it. It's\nthe stock I come of. When a man's\nforefathers have lived and moved and\nhad their being for hundreds of\nyears in a spot liko this, and lmvo appreciated it, a love of such things must\nho implanted in that man's nature at\nhis birth. So it is with me, I supposo.\nI fear Lizzie won't delight in it as I\ndo.\"\nBernard spent almost tho whole of\nthat day out of doors, literally \"ex- I\nploring\" with the avidity and interest I\nof a schoolboy who has found a promising place for birds'-nests. Ho walked completely round the lake, and\nthus, from under tho village of Busk\nat the opposite side, he got a fine view\nof Scar Foot, and gazed at it till he\ncould gaze no lunger.\ntic met a farmer's boy, and asked\nhim the name of some of the great, gray\nfjlls in tho distance, and tho buy told\nhim, aud added tbat there must have\nboen rain iu Lancashire, for \"look at\nt' Stake,\" which, as Bernard saw, was\nflecked with irregular white lines.\n\"All tho becks is uot,\" addod tho boy,\nand Aglionby smiled. At Irkford\u00E2\u0080\u0094\nfor miles around Irkford\u00E2\u0080\u0094tho \"becks\"\nwore black as ink, and foul as only the\nstreams of a town can bo with all manner of pollution.\nHe went in again, to his dinner, in\nthe middle of the day, and sent a message to Mrs. Aveson to enquire after\n\"those ladies,\" Tho answer brought\nby the housekeeper was, \"Miss Conisbrough's cuinpliiuentB, and she was\nquite well; but Mrs. Conisbrough was\nrather poorly this morning.\" On her\nown account, Mrs. Aveson added that\nMrs. Cuiiisbrough was terribly weak,\nand had to lie on her buck as still as a\nmouse, or palpitations would come on\nagain. Dr. Lowther had called, and\nsaid that complete rest was still necessary. Miss Conisbrough had boen reading the Morning Service to her mamma, and she was going to have her dinner with her up stairs. With this ho\nhad to be satisfied.\nT. R.
