Nothing could equal Mr. O'Bnen's
courtesy and attention to me when got
the Eagle into hand Our politics were
rather parochial than European, but
there were occasions in which We con-
sidered it essential-to warn Prussia or
threaten France, or refer to our Difficult
ties with Central Asia. Our parliamen-

to develop the mining resources of Cas-
tletown, had to be looked after; SO had

A SAN Francisco correspondent writes
"But little respect or kind feeling is
expressed for the great Mercantile Lii
brary, which has been so benefited by
the lottery. 1t has been a begging in
stitution from the start. Few people
have ever heard of the Odd Fellows and
Mechanics Institute libraries, but in
the spacious and elegant rooms of these
societies nearly as many, and perhaps a
better selection of books can be found
than at the library bearing the proud
name of Mercantile and supposed to
be founded and supported by the mer-
chant princes Cd of San Francisco
This, like every other mercantile pro-
lect of this great oity, Goes begging to
the country for help. First, there wa~,
Mr.. Lieutenant-Co w. III. L. Barnes,

and gave the library benefit, advertis-
ing extensively the good object, and
5000 or Sc, 600 were netted for the mer-
chant princes. Then the enterprising
Camilla Urso proposed her series of
grand musical concerts in its aid, and

continued for several days, creating q
great excitement, and calling in large
number of people from the country
Some pleasure was undoubtedly given,
and Camilla Urso and her husband
slowed several thousands in their capa-
cious purse, and $4,000 went to the

hang up at the commencement OF
tins chapter an announcement similar To
the proclamation made touching the
unitles Of a melOdrama as to the flight
of time. 1t was now November. Mrs.
Brady was good enough to express the
greatest satisfaction in the management
of her Eagle; and, indeed, the bird was
soaring high in nthe estimation of the
subscribers, who had begun to increase
in numbers. had gone into whatever
society there was in the place, but had
dropped it on the shortest trial I still
kept Mr.. O'Brien with me. l did SC
because, as did net seriously contem-
plate living for any length of time in
Castletown, it would be as well that Mr..
O'Brien should be prepared to take up
the running, as, as far as / could see,
time had removed the objection which
Mrs. Brady had to him. I was heartily
fond of snipe shooting, and, with
OBrien's aid and companionship, man
aged to pass
There is no use in beating about the
bush in this manner; fell ignominious-
Ily head and ears in love with Kate Brady.
L have q suspicion that O'Brien knew
my suffering. / think he was waiting
with prophetic grin for the time when
1 should also break out in the ''Poet's
Corner" of the Eagle. But / remember
ed my resolution and pledge, and the
rather insidious way In which it was
drawn from me.
Meanwhile Kate and 1 became the best
of friends. / was accustomed, when the
pvper vas out, to spend the next day on
the moors, and in the evening went to
Mrs. Brady, who always expressed her
self happy to see me. Kate played char

favorite Chopin. It was pleasant in the

sat in chair by my darling s'side, and,
as she bowed her head over the notes
my face was very close to hers. There
was only one thought in our minds, and
we both knew it. We gazed fearlessly
and long, until with an impulse could
no more help than could help breath
ing, touched her lips with mine. II
was only for the instant On went the
ripple of the waltz as though nothing
had happened; on it went, but the notes
were frightened now, not with the mere
fancies of the artist, but with the bur-
den of our own hopes for the future.
When the waltz was over, Kate went
from the room. did not see her again
that evening, and L had to wake Mrs.
Brady to wish her good night.

at the worst, / should have to do so.
She looked very grave when 1 met her.
She heard me out with cold politeness,
and then asked me how soon 1 could
complete my arrangements for leaving

the spare moments smoking and specu-
lating with some interest on the kind of
a girl she might be, with whom 4 was
not to fall in love on any account. In a
quarter of an hour heard the old fash
ioned guards horn, and minute after

distinguish her features. Isimply in
troduced myself by saying "Miss Bra

handed my charge out and then got her
boxes off the roof When this was done
I turned around, and saw standing next
to me my fair companion of the Holy
head steamboat. She was laughing
heartily, and, putting out her hand,
said:
81 hope the old woman and you are
getting on well, Mr.. Staunton. You see
I have Vited all this time to surprise
you.s &c
1 scarce knew what to say. The ex-
planation OF the mystery was simple
enough. Instead of pointing to one of
her boxes to direct me to an address,
she had shown me trunk that did not
belong to her at at all III.
"And then, you know, when you told
me what you were going to do, 1 knew
all about it, and wanted to have some
fun with you when came home"
Upon reaching the house, was still
confused, and felt an odd fealing of re-
gret and pleasure. Mrs. Brady kissed
her daughter affectionately, and 1 took
my leave. 1 passed over the little bridge
leading into the town on my way to my
lodgings. Without being much of q

LETTERS from Australia mention that
there had been much excitement about
a new quartz reef In Victoria; compa-
ny was formed, and the shares quickly
bought mp. It soon proved, however,
to be what is termed "salted, that is,
veneered. Thin layers of gold or gold
leaf had been laid on with size of warn
ish. The projectors are in custody. It
seems extraordinary that the de1usion
could have lasted five minutes after the
examination of the spot by any one in
the slightest degree skilled in mining,
but in Australia very sensible men are
guillible where mining speculation is
concerned.
