said Lady B, looking up tremulous-
ly. But it was lady who came up the
stairs, with a rustic of garments, into the
room. For an instant she stood quite still,
bewldered and surprised, very pale,
with cleaning eyes, and her white gown
falling about her.
Need I say that it was Isabella? She
was carrying a great bunch of yellow
roses in her hand (for summertime had
again come round, and the flowers were
blooming everywhere). Isabella hurried
up to us, stumbling, in her grief, over
her long trailing dress.

sigh. ooh, dear Lady B, could

heard an exclamation from him. elbow

AS Isabella stood crying and hanging
her head, it seemed indeed as if
faint image of her likeness was repeated
in the frame that hung over her head.
1t may have been that she was standing
beside it, and that her face suggested the
meaning to the discolored traces of the
likeness we remembered.

explained that she had appointed the
heir-at-laW to meet her.
The place seemed scarcely changed,
except that it was empty. and its owner
was gone forever. There was his chair
by the Preside, his table, and the ink
and pens lying ready for use. And there
was the desk and there was the cabinet
where his letters were, tied up and dock
eted and all IN order. 1t was very sad,
and yet very peaceful! the long drudgery
was over, the weary waiting was ended,
and the sadness and loneliness finished.
Our tears fell as we went about the
place with hearts full of affectionate re-
membrance. How kind he had been,
what trusty and faithful friend. There
was the glass that would reflect his face
no more, the unopened books and let
tiers that he would never see lying in a
heap on the table. The heir-at-law came
while we were waiting. His name was
Armar, too; he was a cousin, a cheerful
country squire, troubled by no great feel
ing of regret for person he had scarcely
known. He begged us to do what we
would with the papers, and walked
about the room glancing somewhat con-
temptuously at its shabby furniture and
quaint relics of ancient china or bronze
ware. The squire was evidently no
amateur of rocco.
The squire looked about and then
walked into the bedroom, which was all
straight and in order, never again to be
inhabited by the person who had lived
there so long
"Why, what is this?'' said the squire
in his loud voice. GA picture-frame? a

THE STORM In THE GULF.
Further Horrors Reported from the De-
vastated Region.-More Loss of Life
Sufferings of the Survivors.

GALVESTON, Texas, Aug. "a.
The recent storm proved very, destructive
to small vessels off the Texas coast, and it
will doubtless be months before the full list
of casualties is known.
The schooner Lottie Mayor is reported
ashore near Indianola. All hands are sup
posed to have been lost. The schooner Lake
Austin is near her. but the crew of the latter
was saved All the small craft in the bay
from the Shoal to Edwards Point are report
ed to have been lost. Schooner S. w. Perry
has gone to pieces in the Gulf and her cargo
of lumber, valued at $4,000, is strewn along
the beach for several miles. II captain and
cook were drowned. The remainder of the
crew was saved. 1t is roughly estimated
that the damage done to shipping in this
vicinity during the storm will approximate
100000 The village of Quinlaua, at the
north of the Brazos river, was entirely swept
away, and schooners Rosa Lee and Nettie
far as known.
special from Victoria says: "Indianola
is a complete wreck. No more than three or
four houses escaped destruction. Or, Fisher,
quarantine officer, with his wife, NJ. Malone,
Capt Adolph Strenbrook, and negro woman
had a narrow escape from drowning. The
quarantine station was washed away early
Friday morning and they were forced to take
refuge in large grove of Spanish cedars
that grew near the quarantine hospital. For
nine hours they clung to these frail supports
before they were relieved. Nearly every
house on the upper end of the island was
swept away. Beattie Meade, negro woman
and two children were drowned
No other lives are reported lost, nearly all
the sheep and cattle on the island were
drowned and the remainder will probably
perish for want of water. There is no pro-
vision on the island except meat. None OF
the survivors saved anything besides what
they had on and much suffering will ensue
unless aid is at once extended. Orders have
been issued to remove the Office of the Col
lector of Customs of the Saluria district from
Indianola to Victoria and the transfer will
be made Immediately.
The bodies of Mrs. DR.. Hodges, her twin
children and her sister, Mrs. Crocker victims
of the storm at lndisnola, were inferred at
Cuero on Sunday.
Some Sl5,0 was appropriated by the city
council last night and citizens have sub
scribed $4,000 for the storm sufferers. This
will afford temporary relief only, there being
over $50 families homeless and destitute.

by the number of rooms engaged, the fall

now quite too early to determine the actual
number.

1t is true that the government was investi-

day at that very work but had found that
Capt. Quigley did not exceed his duty in any
particular, and that none but general instrue-
ton had been given him and no new orders
had been issued to him. The amount of it is
that the American fishermen have been al
lowed to do about as they liked. They came
down to Canadian ports and traded without
even reporting at the custom houses, and
violated the law in many other ways. On
account of the treaty, the enforcement of
customs regulations had been very lax, and
this state of affairs had been going on so long

HOUSE OF COMMONS.
ParnelI Resumes His Address in Reply
to the Queens Speech.
LONDON, Aug. "a.

LONDON, Aug "a.
Parnel was loudly cheered in Commons
tonight, on rising to resume debate on the
address in reply to the Queens speech He
said he believed if the country had been given
three more weeks to consider the home rule
bill the tories would not now be installed in
the treasury bench. The Irish party had
every reason to be satisfied with their pres
ent position. After the present government
had exhibited themselves for year or so,
spectacle for God and man, in an attempt to
govern Ireland, liberal hesitation would van
ish. The Irish had every reason to have pa
tience. Theirs was a winning cause. IL
government speeches were intended to exas-
perate Ireland, they would fail to have that
effect. At the same time there would be
considerable difficulty with the rent question.
He regretted that the government had not
appreciated the gravity Of the occasion. If
the government thought of solving the Irish
question without settling the land question, it
would find it had got hold of the wrong end
of a very thorny stick. Cheers
Parnell read his amendment to the address
and proceeded. He said judicial rents we're
too high. He sccused the government of
encouraging landlords to evict by the whole
sale, knowing that aggrarian crime always
followed an eviction.
In conclusion he said: 1.-The Irish will
never submit to government not their own.
The question Of an autonomous government

would always be fixed in the hearts Of the
Irish people" Prolonged cheers
MI Gladstone, upon rising, was loudly
eheered. He intimsted that he would take
no part In the division on Parnelrs amend
ment, because he deprecated any attempt to
force definite premature expression of an
opinion on policy which the government
foreshadowed for their future guidance.
Instead of giving Ireland self government,
the present government proposed that En-
gland should govern Ireland to a greater ex-
tent than it did at the present time. He
feared the policy now announced would in
crease the difficulties which the late govern
ment had striven TO diminish, because that
policy meant adjournment of lrelands hopes
because it offered Ireland what she did not
want and postponed as long as possible the
contamination of what would give rest and
repose to Ireland Cheers
IL is understood thar Parnell will not
press his amendment TO division.

One of the embankments of the Irriwaddy
river burst in this citv, Monday. The breach
was 300 yards in length and so rapid was the
flow of water that in a few moments the
whole district was flooded from four to twen-
ty feet deep. Engineers at once cut the dam
south of the city to allow the waters to sub
side, but the result Of this maneuvre is as
yet unknown. Fifty thousand persons are
to-day homeless in the city, their houses and
possessions having been either submerged or
destroyed. A number of persons were
drowned by the thrush of waters, but how
many has not yet been ascertained The
flooded district had within its territory many
of the food supply stores and all of these were
swept away. The result will be an approach
TO famine among the homeless population.
The river will not fail sufficiently to permit
any attempts at reconstruction of the en-
bankment until November. British military
operations are seriously interfered with by
the overflow.
