cottage out Of town, who appeared here
last summer. Her eqUPsge was magRifi-

ing mare, constituted her stable She was
not foo old to be handsome, but Just OF that
aga when ezlnHi is both ornamental and ex-
cusable. She seemed TO be all dsy. upon
the road, but folks could see nothing amiss
in this as whoever possessed such 3 turnout
had best live in 1t altogether. The myste-
ry attaching to this Ars.-[Was that she
never invited any body t. her dwelling.
She went to the "hOps," appeared dsily up
on the beach, ard was quite sflable and
popular, but never dropped an allusion' to
her cottage. ThereRi, the other ladies who
were dying of curiosity, resolved to visit
her unsolicited, snd a commission was ap-
pointed TO discover her abode and report
upon it. la
Far up the island, in the township of
Portsmouth, they observed 8 little farm
house, too obscure to attract attention, and
their appearance at its portal threw every
BODY within into condemnation. The
place was bare of both carpets and turni-

The discovery of Mrs.--s neiaqs

A CADETS MARRIAGE. ~ q"
The spy system is the most Objectionable
OF the cadet school. When the ca.

drink or smoke.

We cab the attention Of Messrs.
COburD, Elliot and Dunn to this fact. No
naval cadet is allowed to play cards, dice,

or lose his pocket money. Hell

Ontrssting the honey and butter of these
tolen interviews with the bareback of his

The young. lady equally ardent was not

"You must not tell papa; he is q great

our commission, which is all you have To-
epend upon, we will parade the fact, but
