BROKEN HEART.

"NOw, Mary dear, yon'ref fOoliH !"
The speaker was tall, broad
ShOuldercd young Irishman, with
straight, clear features, frank, loving
eyes aud d well.shaped, intelligent
forehead, from which his curly,
black hair was brushed carelessly.
The young girl addressed was,
as may he supposed, of the same
nationality Ms himself, but one
might have gone good way to fluid
prettier damSel than she, with her
rosy cheeks, bright, sparkling eyes
and wavy brown hair. Her white,
plump aims, that many Il ballroom
belle might have envied, were
thrown over her head aud her eyes
were swapping with coquettish mer-
rimput.

THE Riel rebellion in the Canadian
Nor Invest Is supposed to be inst,gated
and directed by the Hudson Bay monop.
oily company which for al hundred years
has had that country in ITS avarlcious
grasp and has been able TO secure from
the Dominion parliament almost any
power it asked, securing land grants
which oispossessed both Indians ami
white settlers Of their claims and improve
ments. THIS company has established Its
trading posts all oyer that country, and
has cheated the Indians in a shameless
manner out of the furs they obtained, ex-
acting pile of fine fur skins as high as q
gun and worth $500 for gun worth $40.
lie white settlers pushing into that coun
try are seriously interfering with this
business and the supposed object Of this
iusurrection is TO drive out the white set
tiers aud hold over the country the terror
Of such outbreaks to keep them away.
The Hudson Bay company, It is reported,
will ask the Canadian government to pay
800, 900 for the destruction Of the trading
post, Carleton, at which tho loss to the
company was perhaps not more than g..
600. The scheme of the company seems
10 be to have Rel and his forces entrench
themselves at the compsny's trading posts
50 that the government lro 'ps will destroy
them, as in the case of Carleton, and then
bring in an enormous bill against the gov
ernment. Riel Is well known to have
been the agent Of the Hudson Bay com

is believed he is acting as their agent in
the insurrection he is now leading. 1t is
