CHAPTER XIX. (Continued. )
Your father, maidens, has been rather hard- ened than changed by years—he had the same manly form, the same old Norse frankness of ' manner and of heart, the same upright cour-
age and honesty of disposition, with more of | the gentle ingenucasness of youth, an eager | desire to please, a willinginness to be pleased and a vivacity of spirits which survives not our early years But though he was thus worthy of love, and though Erland. wrote to me, autharizing his attachment, there was an- other—a stranger, Minna, a fatal stranger— full of arts unknown to us, and graces which to the plain manners of your father were un. known. Yes, She walked, indeed; among us like a being of another and superior race. Ye look on me as if it were strange that I should have had attractions for such a lover; but I present nothing that can remind you that Norna of the Fitful-head was once admired and loved as Ulla Troil—the change betwixt the animated body and the corpse after disease is scarce more awful and absolute than I have sustained, while I yet linger on earth. Look on me, maidens—look on me by this glimmer- ing light. Can ye believe that these haggard and weather wasted features—these eyes which have been almost converted to stone, by looking upon sights of terror—these locks, that, mingled with grey, now stream out, the shattered pennons of a sinking vessel—that these, and she to whom they belong, could once be the objects of fond affections’ But the waning lamp sinks fast, and let it sink while 1 tell my infamy. We loved in secret, till I gave the last proof of fatal and of guilty passion !. And now beam out, though magic glimmer—shine out a little space, thy flame so powerful even in thy feebleness—bid him who hovers near us, keep his dark pinions aloof from the circle thou dost illuminate— live but a little till the worst be told, and then sink when thou wilt into darkness, as black as my guilt and sorrow!”
White she spoke thus, she drew together the remaining nutriment of the lamp, and trimmed its decaying flame; then again, with a hollow voice, and in broken sentences pur- sued her narrative.
‘<7 must waste little time in words. My love was discovered, but not my guilt. Er- land came to Pomona in anger, and trasported me to our solitary dwelling in Holy. He com- manded me to see my lover no more, and to receive Magnus, in whom he was willing to forgive the offences of his father, as my tuture husband. Alas! 1} no longer deserved his attachment—my only wish was to escape from my father’s dwelling, to conceal my shame in my lovers arms. Ler me do him justice—he was faithful—too, too faithful—his perfidy would have bereft me of my senses; but the fatal consequences of his fidelity have done me a tenfold injury.”
i
wild tone of insanity. ‘‘{t has made me the powerful and the despairing Sovereign of the Seas and Winds!”
She paused a second time after this wild exclamation, and resumed her narrative in a more composed manner.
‘« My lover eame in secret to Hoy, to con- cert measures for my flight, and I agreed to meet him, that we might fix theftime when his vessel should come into the Sound. I left the house at midnight.”
Here she appeared to gasp with agony, and went on with her tale by broken and inter- rupted sentences. ,‘*1 left the house at mid- night —I had to pass my father’s door, and 1 perceived it was open—I thought he watched us, and, that the sound of my steps might not break his slumbers, I closed the fatal door— a light and trivial action—but,God in Heaven ! what were the consequences !—At morn, the room was full of suffocating vapeur—my father was dead—dead through my act—dead through my disobedience—dead through my infamy! All that follows is mist and dark- ness—a choking, suffocating, stifling mist envelopes all that I said and did, all that was said and done, until I became assured that my doom was accomplished, and walked forth the calm and terrible being you now behold me— the Queen of the Elements—the sharer in the power of those beings to whom man and his passions give such sport as the tortures of the dog-tish afford the fisherman, when he pierces his eyes with thorns, and turns him once more into his native element, to traverse the waves in blindness and agony. No, maidens, she whom you see before you is impassive to the follies of which your miuds are the sport, I am she that have made* the offering—I am she that bereaved the giver of the gift of life which he gave—-the dark saying has been interpreted by my deed, and I am taken from humanity, to be something pre-eminently powerful, pre-eminenly, wretched ?”
As she spoke thus, the light, which had been long quivering, leaped high for an instant, and seemed about to expire, when Norna, interrupting herself, saidjhastily, ‘‘ No more now— he comes—he comes—he comes— Enough that ye know me, and the right I have to advise and command you.—Approach now, proud Spirit, if thon wilt? ”
So saying she extinguished the lamp, and passed out of the apartment with her usual loftiness of step, as Minna could observe from its measured cadence.
(To be continned.)
Ocean Racers.
In ayear or two, perhaps next summer, says the Montreal Siar, we shall be crossing the Atlantic in about five days, ploughing through the water at the rate of twenty-four miles an hour, and in a ship that will be al- most unsinkable. At least that is what the White Star people promise us. And they promise, too, that these new ships will be floating palaces, not as that phrase is under- stood now-a-days, but as our fancy can paint it in the rosiest of hues. We have already rail- road cars which are a succession of drawing- rooms, dining rooms, bath rooms and barbers shops, and travel revels in the luxury of re- pose at the rate of fifty miles an hour. But these new steamers promise to be as much superior to slow coaches like the so-called greyhounds of the ocean as the electric- \lighted, steam-heated drawing room cars of , to-day are to the Pullman which was our ad- 'miration yesterday or the day before.

Literary Notes.
Tue American Macazeye for December is in all its features a Christmas number. The leading article ‘* Christ-Ideals in Am- erican Art,” by Wm. H. Ingersoll, gives ve- casion for the frontispiece, ‘‘The Boy Christ Disputing with the Doctors,” en- graved from a picture by Frank Moss ; and a sculptured ‘* Head of Christ,” by Launt Thompson, is reproduced in line engraving on the cover. The article is replete with descriptions and illustrations showing how our leading painters and sculptors have represented the ideal Christ. A very in- teresting account is also given of the origin and history of this ideal, which, according to early traditions, may be traced to a por- trait taken in the lifetime of Jesus. Drawing upon his ample fund of personal recollections, Charles Gayarre tells, with a wealth of anecdote, how various means of amusement were provided for rich and poor fifty years ago, in a quarter of New Orleans that seemsthen to have been de- voted—at least in the holiday season—to the Genius of Pleasure.
** Christmas in the Grand Army” is the story told by one of the surviving members of asociety founded among the soldiers dur- ing the war. Its meetings took place on successive Christmas days, the last been held just before the ciose of the conflict. Diaries of war incidents were kept by mein- bers and read at-the meetings ; often in- dicating by changed ownership the casual- ties of battle.
In the December number of Mr. Faw- cett’s story, Olivia begins to find out what sort of a husband she has acquired, and he in turn meets equal surprise in attempting to control her.
Salmon fishing in the Cascapedia river is described in an illustrated article. Lord Dufferin, Lorne and Lansdowne, as well as the Princess Louise, angled in the stream ; but visitors from the United States, among whom are the late President Arthur, caught its biggest tish.
In another illustrated article, Z. L. White has a pleasant sketch {of the dis- coverer of natural gas at Findlay, 0., to whom the people of that place should certainly erect a monument.
An interview with Walt Whitman and an ancient version of the love story of Miles Standish will interest literary readers; there are some finished stories, a discussion of new books by Julian Hawthorne, a paper on Home Decorations by Jenny Hume ; Health Jottings for December by Dr. Hutchinson, and poems by Edith M. Thomas, Charles Henry Luders, George Edgar Montgomery, Charles Lotin Hild- reth, Hamlin Garland and Andrew Hussey Allen. The Portfolio has three illustrated articles by well-known authors.
We are indebted to the editorial society of the Society for promoting Christian Knowledge for a copy of The Dawn of Day —a good publication for the young.
Legal Prohibition.
A Torento despatch (Noy. 28) reports :— ‘A fortnight ago Rev. D. J. Macdonnell preached a sermon on moderate drinking, in which total abstinence was denied as a Bibli- cal precept. The sermon caused a commotion in temperance circles and evoked considerable comment. Last night the rev. gentleman re- sumed, dealing at great length with personal liberty inculcated by St. Paul. Every man was held to judge himself, and while there might be many reqgsons for abstaining in order to help a weak brother, there was no law higher than the individual. The preacher said the apostle drank wine and did not apply himself to the principle laid down (Romans xiv., verse 21). The argument running through the discourse was against legal prohibition, and has already given rise to much dissatis- faction among the advocates of total absti nence in the city.”

Reapers ResponsiesLe ror Writers.~
Between the writer andthe reader, then, a certain marriage of the intellectual and sympathetic faculties should always exist. The book must be rendered complete, not by the writing of it, but by the writing as- sisted by the reading. The reader must do half the work. He must liberate his im- agination, he must awaken his understand- ing, he must open the fountains of his knowledge and culture; he must contribute, in a word, from his own capital of mind to the beauty and elevation of the work of art that he contemplates. He must feel that he shares the responsibility of its truth and excellence, and that he, no less than the writer, is liable to blame for its deficiencies. If this be recognized, then literature will grow to heights hitherto undreamed of, be- cause the writer will be left free to devote his entire energy to the development of his proper part of the result, instead of, as now, being compelled to do imperfectly the reader's work as well as his own.— Julian Hawthorne, in the American Maga- zine for December. => ,
Apvice to Morners.— Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain; and the little cherub awakes ae “bright asa button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays al)
ain, regulates the bowels, and is the best fooane remedy for diarrhea, whether arising from teething or other causes. ‘Twenty-five cents a bottle. Be sure and ask for Mrs. Winsloe’s Soothing Syrup, and take no other kiod marl] cod & wky
