We warn the public against those who offer Watches for sale and take very much less than asked.

An instance came to our notice the other day where $35 had been asked and $20 accepted for a Watch that we and other regular Watchmakers sell for less than $15. Since then, several similar cases have been brought to our notice,

Our object is not only to sell goods but to supply articles, whether

‘Watches or Jewelry, that will best auswer the purpose required by our ‘customers and to sell at such a price

that it will pay them to buy from us,

CHAPTER VIL.

(Contin ite d. )

‘It is se’'enteen bundred linen,” said the) pedlar, giving a tweak to one of the shirts, in | that knowing manner with which matrons and | judges ascertain the texture of the loom ;—-} ‘*it's se’enteen hundred linen, and as strong as | anit were dowlas. Nevertheless, mother, ! your bidding is to be done; and I would have | done Mr. Mordaunt’s bidding toe,” he added, | relaxing from his note of defiance into the | deferential whining tone with which he ecajol- ed his customers, *‘if he hadna made use of | profane oaths,which made my very flesh grew, | and caused me,in some sort, to forget myself.” | He then took a flask from his pocket, and ap- | proached the shipwrecked man. ‘It's the best of brandy,” he said; *‘and if that doesna | cure him, 1 ken nought that will.” So saying, he took a preliminary gulp himself, as if to} shew the quality of the liquor, and was about to putit to the man’s mouth, when, suddemy withholding his hand, he looked at Norma— | ‘* You ensure me against all risk of evil from | him, if I am to render him my help !—Ye ken | yoursell what folk say, mother.”

For all other answer, Norma took the bottle from the pedlar’s hand, and begau to chafe the temples and throat of the shipwrecked man; directing Mordaunt huw to, hold his head.so as to atiord him the means of disgorg- ing -the sea-water which he had swallow- ed during his immeysion.

The pedlar looked cn inactive for a mo- ment, and then said, ‘‘ To be sure, there is not the same risk in helping him, now he is out of the water, and lying high and dry on the beach; and, to be sure, the principal dan- ger is to those who first touch him; and, to be sure, itis a world’s pity to see how these rings are pinching the puir creature's swalled tinger—they make his hand as blue as a partan’s bac before boiling.” So saying, he seized one of the man’s cold hands, which h.d just, by atremendous motion, indicated the return of life, and began his charitable work of removing the rings, which seemed to be of little value.

‘*‘As you love your life; forbear,” said Norma, sternly, ‘tor I willlay that on you which shall spoil your travels through the isles,”

‘** Now, for merey’s sake, mother, say nae mair about it,” said the pedlar, ‘‘ and I'll e’en do your pleasure in your ain way ! I did feela rheumatic in my back-spauld yestreen; and it wad be asair thing for the like of me to be debarred my quiet walk round the country, in the way of trcade—making the honest penny, and helping myself with what Providence sends on our coasts.”

‘*Peace, then,” said the woman—‘* peace if thou wouldst not rue it ; and take this man on thy broad shoulders. His life is of value and you will be rewarded.”

“f had muckle need,” said the pedlar pensively, looking at the lidless chest, aud the other matters which strewed the sand; ‘*for he has comed between me and as muckle spreicherie as wad hae made a man of me for the rest of my life, and now it maun lie here till the next tide sweep it a’ doun the Roost, after them that aught it yesterday morniig.’

‘‘Fear not,” said Norna, “it will come to man's use, See, there comes carrion-crows, of scent as keen as thine own.”

She spoke truly, for several of the people from the hamlet of Jarlshoff were now hasten- ing along the beach, to have their share in the spoil. The pedlar beheld them with a deep groan. ‘Ay, ay,” he said, ‘‘the folk of Jarlshoff, they wili make clean work; they are kend for that far and wide; they winna leave the value of a rotten ratliu ; and what's waur, there isna ane o' them has mense or sense enough to give thanks for the mercies when they have gotten them. There is the auld Ranzelman, Neil Ronald- son that canna walk a mile to hear the minister, but he will hirple ten if he hears of a ship embay< d.”

i '

Norna, however, seemed to possess over him so complete an ascendancy, that he no longer hesitated to take the man, who

now gave strong symptoms of reviving exist- ence, upon his shoulders; and, assisted by Mordaunt, trudged along the sea-beach with his burden, without farther remonstrance. Ere he was borne off, the stranger pointed to the chest, and attempted to mutter some- thing, to which Norna replied, “‘Enough. It shall be secured.”

Advancing towards the passage called Erick’s Steps, by which they were to ascend the cliffs, they met the ;oople of Jarlshoif hastening in the opposite direction. Man and woman, as they passed, reverently made room for Norna, and saluted her—not without an expression of fear upon some of their faces. She passed them a few paces and then turhing back, called aloud {to the Ranzelman, whvo (thongh the practice was more common than legal) was attending the rest of the hamlet

upon this plundering expedition. ‘* Neil Ronaldson,” she said, ‘‘mark my words,

There stands yonder a_ chest, from which the lid has been just prized off. Look it be brought down to your own house at Jarlshoff, just as it now is. Beware of moving o1 touching the slighest article. He were better in his grave, that so much as looks at the contents. I speak not for nought, nor in aught will I be disobeyed.”

‘*Your pleasure shall be done, mother, said Ronaldson. ‘‘] warrant we will not break bulk, sic is your bidding.”

Far behind the rest of the villagers, fol- lowed an old woman, talking to herself, and cursing her own decreptitude, which kept her the last of the party, yet pres-ing forward with all her might to get her share of the spoil.

When they met her, Mordaunt was aston- ished to recognize his father’s old house- keeper. ‘‘How now,” he said, ‘‘ Swertha, what makes you so far from home ?”

** Just e’en daikering out to look after my auld master.and your honor,” replied Swertha, who felt like a criminal caught in the manner; for on more occasions than one Mr. Mertoun had intimated his high disapprobation of such

Mordaunt felt this was true, and, «
