Tuey gave a long time to pure joy before either of them cared to put questions or compare notes. But at last he asked her, ‘Who was on the island besides her (' | ‘Oh!’ said she, ‘only my guardian angel. Poor Mr, Weich died the first week we were here,’

He parted the hair on her brow, and issed it tenderly. ‘And who is your guardian angel ?’

‘Why, you are now, my own papa; and To think of your being the one to come at your age !’ | ‘Well, never mind me. Who has taken ‘such care of my child ?—this the sick girl they frightened me about !’ | ‘Indeed, papa, I was a dying girl, My very hand was wasted. Look at it now; brown as a berry, but so plump; you owe that to him; and, papa, I can walk twenty miles without fatigue; and so strong, I[ could take you up in my arms and carry you, [know. But lam content to eat you.’ (a shower of kisses), ‘1 hope you will like | him,’ | ‘My cwn Helen, Ah,Iam a happy old man this day. What is his name? | ‘Mr. Hazel. He is a clergyman. Oh, ‘papa, I hope you will like him, for he has saved my life more than once: and then he has been so generous, so delicate, so pa- tient; for I used him very ill at first; and you will find my character as much im

azel. He is a clergyman; and ech, so

Ah ! how can I ever repay him ?’

‘Well, I shall be glad to see this paragon, and shake him by the hand. You may imagine what I feel to any one who is kind to my darling. . An old gentleman? about my age?

‘Oh, no, papa.’

‘Hum "

‘If he had been old, I should not be here; for he had to fight for me against cruel men with knives; and work like a horse. He built me a hut and made me this cave, and almost killed himself in my service. Poor Mr. Hazel !’

‘How old is he ?

‘Dearest papa, I never asked him that; but I think he is four or five years older than me; and a hundred years better than I shall ever be, I am afraid. What is the matter, darling ?

‘Nothing, child, nothing.’

‘Don’t tell me. Can’t I read your dear face ?

‘Come, let me read yours. Look me in the face, now; full.’

He took her by the shoulders firmly, but not the least roughly, and looked straight into her hazel eyes. She blushed at the ordeal—blushed scarlet; but her eyes, pure as heaven, faced his fairly, though with a puzzled look.

He concluded his paternal inspection by kissing her on the brow. ‘I was an old fool,’ he muttered.

‘What do you say, dear papa.’

‘Nothing, nothing. Kiss me again. Well love, you had better find that guardian of yours, that I may take him by the hand and give him a father’s blessing, and make him some little return by carrying him home to England along with my darling.’

‘I'll call him, papa. Where can he be gone, I wonder?’

She ran out to the terrace and called: ‘Mr. Hazel! Mr. Hazel! I don’t see him; but he can’t be far off. Mr. Hazel.’ Then she came back and made her father sit down; and she sat at his knee beaming with delight.

‘Ah, papa,’ said she, ‘it was you who loved me most in England. It was you who came to look for me’

‘No,’ said he, ‘there are others there that love you as well in their way. Poor Wardlaw! on his sick bed for you, cut down like a flower the moment he heard you were lost on the ‘Proserpine.’ An! I have broken faith.’

‘That is a story,’ said Helen,’ you couldn't.’

‘For a moment, I mean; I promised the dear old man—he furnished the ship, the men and the money to find you. He says you are as much his daughter as mine.’ ‘Well, but what did you promise him? said Helen, blushing and interrupting hastily, for she could not bear the turn matters were taking.

‘Oh! only to give you the second kiss from Arthur. Come, better late than never.’ She knelt before him, and put her forehead instead of her lips. ‘There,’ said the General, ‘that kiss is from Arthur War- dlaw, your intended. Why, who the deuce is this?

A young man was standing wonder-struck at the entrance, and had heard the General’s last words; They went through him like a knife. General Rolleston stared at him.

Helen uttered an ejaculation of pleasure, and said, ‘This is my dear father, and he wants to thank you —’

‘{ don’t understand this,’ said the General. ‘I thought you told me there was nobody on the island but you and your guardian angel. Did you count this poor fellow for nobody? Why, he did you a good turn once.’

‘Oh papa!’ said Helen, cee: ‘Why, this is my guardian angel. This 1s Mr. Hazel.’

‘The General looked from one to another in amazement; then he said to Hvlen, ‘This is your Mr. Hazel?

“Yes, papa.’

‘Why, you don’t mean to tell me you don’t know this man?’

‘Know him, papa! why, of course I know Mr. Hazel; know him and reverve him beyond all the world except you.’

The General lost patience. ‘Are you out of your senses?’ said he; ‘this man here is no Hazel. Why, this is James Seaton—our gardner—a ticket-of-leave-man.’

Srincie Copies Two CrEnvs, VOL. 14.---NO. 69. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR,

-_--e —

Sir,—Though unavoidably absent from the meeting held fer the purpose of organ- izing a “Seciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,” I learn, through your columns, that said meeting was well at- tended, and that the object for which it was called is likely to be accomplished.

Instances of ill-treatment of horses are often witnessed upon our streets, and the haggard appearance of the visitants of our backyards attest that many, who can ill afford the luxury, keep canine favorites, only to half starve them. It would be @ charity tothe animais. themselves, and a relief to the neighborhood, were their nightly howls consigned to oblivion. If we caun:t all, like the philanthropic Lady Bur- dett Coutts, administer port wine occacion- ally to our horses, we can at least treat them kindly, or, if not prepared to do so, dispense with their services.

To Tur Examiner, as the principal agent in bringing this commendable chject into notice, the well-mimded public ewe their gratiiude; and in spite of the patrict-ic side-thrust of your contemporary, we hope the movement will sueceed. That same side-thrust, along with his newly-broached idea that editors are responsible for, and expected to be, in sympathy with their correspendents, leads me to the questivn if, amid ali the educational reforms, agricul- tural and medical classes, etc., there could be found room to edge in a class for editorial education,

It is really surprising to what depths of ignominy sume editors in this country will descend. There seems no epithet too vile to bestow upon their opponent, and instead of thereby creating interest in their own proposition, they too often engender disgust by their ungentlemanly expressions. The public cannot approve of vituperation, and if success be the aim of the journal, civility ought to mark its course. I offer no disrespect to the clergy in their ex- hortations against obscene literature, novels, and the like; but I would sooner see our sons perusing Walter Scott, a Dickens, or any other respectable novel, than enjoying some of the fine sentiments, served up in choice language by some spirited editor; as the latter popular educator would certainly tend to demoralize the mind more than a fiction with a good moral. We hear a good deal about the Scott Act, temperance, and so forth, To this we beg <o offer, for appendage, another Act, or command equi- valent to an act, reckoning the source from which it proceeds, “Bridle the tongue,” otherwise, be temperate in the use of it. There can be but one opinion regarding the man who takes advantage of his position, to publicly attack the private character of individuals ; this can only be justifiable when said individuals, private failings affect the public. As for the terms used by various public, or would-be public, servants against each other, they are positively dis- graceful, and wherever in these, education comes in, there, comes in neither common sense, nor self-réspect.

We do not marvel at the character of the contributions in your contemporary, when we behold the display of logic in the editor who casts suspicion upon an unknown lady, for the strange reason that she sympathizes with suffering} the discrimination shown in attempting to lower public intellect by using borrowed language against one of the ablest minds of the day; and the extrava- gance of supposing that the admirers of Mr, Ferguson’s lecture, must, of necessity, be denouncers ‘of Prince of Wales College.

As one of the suspected, I say we ought to feel proud that our small Island can imitate the great British .Government by keeping up certain institutions for appear- ance sake. Probably the Patriot sympa- thizes with the countrywoman who confided tome ‘“‘eddication is a grand thing! My children have a good eddication. | They don’t know no more Gzelic than that stove.” (Geelic! the grand old language which clothed the inspiration of the poet, and led countless heroes to victory; the language of thecradle hymn, which soothed our infancy, and nerved the father’s arm to fell the forest giants, and level the unequal land.) And yet the woman was to a certain extent wise in her generation. Though professionals are sometimes employed more for their knowledge of Geelic, than for any other acquirements; yet, the eddication im- parted in Prince of Wales College is a stepping stone to what is termed ‘‘independ- ence,” by assisting towards the gaining of a prefix to the name, which will enable them to gain, irrespective of talent, what is generally considered the ‘“‘chief end of man’ —money.

Hoping that you will not catch the current editorial infection; and that you will continue to tone up society by advocat- ing all that tends to elevate and enlighten humanity.

I am, truly yours, OBSERVER. Charlottetown, 1884. ‘‘Yes,” said the noted detective, ‘‘I have seen a great mapy queer thinBs in my ex- perience.” ‘Discovered a good maby gigantic frauds, [ suppose,” ventured an admirer. ‘‘Well, I should say so,” was the reply. ‘‘But, between you and me, the most complete piece of deception I ever saw was 8 woman—young, pretty, and I would have sworn she was an angel.” “But she wasn’t?” ‘‘I should say not. She has a temper like a whirlwind, and when she gets mad the very earth shakes,” ‘Good gracious! and how did you manage to get down to her character?” “Well, I~—ahem—the fact is, J married her.”— Christian at Work. —_ -~ =>
