V- 'a -I IT mi"I T I"' [All rights reserved.] HOKACE FITZHUGII OR THE MYSTERY OF DESERTED HOLLOW, BY ROBERT P. FINDLAY, A uthor of Tlte Relics of the Dead," The Spectre of etc., etc. CHAPTER XXIII. When joys have lost their bloom and breath, And life itself is vapid Why, as we reach the falls of death, 1 Feel we its tide more rapid ? It may be strange yet who would change Time's course to slower speeding ? When one by one our friends are gone, And left our bosoms bleeding "Will this confounded train ever reach its desti- nation ?" I hope so, sir, but its an important line, and we must go slowly, so as to avoid accidents." Something having a finish like nation was the contemptuous rejoinder of the first speaker. we Mr Homer-Jones was the lordly traveller who had put the above interrogation to the Guard, on popping his head out of the carriage-window at Manorbier Station. He had been on the rail since half-past five o'clock in the morning, and was hungry, peevish and miser- able. "Look here, guard," said Mr Homer-Jones signal- ing- to the official, who came up to the window. Can you explain this ? I have come from Pad- dington, nearly three hundred miles distant; and, hang me, if the journey from Whitland to Pembroke, just about thirty miles—does'nt seem twice as long, and ten times as wearisome, as the other part of it The guard, a good-natured man, looked at Mr Homer-Jones with an expression of heart-felt pity, and replied. "Ah. we're used to hearing those remarks, Sir so we get hardened to 'em after a time, As soon as the up train has passed we shall steam off with a spurt,' and may possibly manage five miles an hour yet." Mr Homer-Jones's blunt but inelegant retort must be ignored. Z5 "When do you think the Company will make their third-class carriages fit for a respectable dis- senting minister to sit down in ?" asked Mr Homer- Jones. I expect it will be when the Company can afford to pay-a dividend," answered the guard. "Well, their inability to payrme can't arise from ^ny extravagance in the way of providing proper ac- comodation for passengers," observed Mr Homer- Jones. Hush, here's the 'guv'nor cried the guard at this point of the conversation, and away he went. Mr Homer-Jones reclined back in his compart- ment with a look of calm resignation on his face. Presently,-(on the Pembroke and Tenby Railway "presently is an elastic term to represent any time from five minutes to an hour and a half)—the train moved out of the station and Mr Homer-Jones felt that it would not be many hours now before he arrived at his destination. From the oscillation which took place it might have been imagined by Mr Homer-Jones that the train was going at a perilously swift rate but this gentleman knew there was no occasion for any auxiety on that head. In due course Pembroke was reached, and Mr Homer-Jones alighted from the train with a feeling of thankfulness (to Providence and not the Company) at having got th,re at last. "Bus to the Hotel, Sir ?" cried a man in the Sta- tion-yard, pointing to a shabby turn-out which stood close by. "No, thanks I am afraid it would fall to pieces if I got in," replied Mr Homer-Jones sarcastically as he sallied out of the Station. The view which a visitor to Pembroke has of the ] town from the entrance to the station is not particu- larly cheering. The long, dull street one way, and the dreary fields the other a chance policeman here and a stray dog there a few ragged youngsters playing at chuck' halfpenny or for buttons possibly a few women or a railway-man and the picture of dry monotony and Unrelieved God-forsakeness is complete. So thought Mr Homer'Jones as he wended his way down the main Street towards the Dark Lane. At a 1 house in the last named place he stopped and tapped at the door. Bless my soul, it's Mr Jones exclaimed the ro ust, jolly-faced woman, who camo to the door in answer to the knock. Yes, Mrs Lamphey, you see I am here again, j 1 v: diall ho. dresponded 1\11' Homer-.J ones cor.

When Mr Homer Jones had eaten the last morsel on his plate he best his head and closed his eyes for a ( second or two. < Mrs Lamphey saw this and wondered what it ) Meant. All at once the thought struck her, he was merely spying grace after meat! I "I have had a long journey," began Mr Jones, taking a seat beside the lady of the house, and I feel rather tired." "It is a tiresome journey," observed Mrs Lam- < phey, who had never b-;en farther than Saundersfoot < in her life. ( Now there was nothing very singular, extraordi- 1 nary or exciting in these remarks yet Mr Homer- ( Jones's action at this moment may be classed as t triangularly so. He rose from his seat, went up to Mrs Lamphey, ( and deliberately kissed her There is no use blinking the truth Mrs Lamphey certainly did not resent the liberty did not even 1 scream, but on the contrary, seemed to like it. I Oh, Mr Jones, you are a bad man cried Mrs Liamphey, with a flush on her face but the cry was a subdued titter, and the flush was that of pleasure. If she had turned pale, screwed up her nose, flashed her 'optics' like coloured lightning—(one penny a box)-and ordered Mr Jones out of the t house, we might have assumed that the rude, bad man had outraged the susceptible feelings of a loving, virtuous woman. But Mrs Lamphey was a widow, and as full of rrood nature and kindness as an egg is full of meafc.^ ° Oh, you had man she repeated, wiping her lip# with the end of her apron. This action might have been rendered necessary by the state of Mr Homer Jones's own lips after his recent hearty repast, "A bad man?" exclaimed Mr Jones in a serio- comic tone and with a characteristic spiint, "Madam, there is no more harm in me than in a mad dog," The widow laughed loudly fit this remark and Mr Homer Jones evinced his by kissing her again It may strike the reader as curious that lr Homer-Jones should have suddenly become so amor- ously inclined considering his professed aversion to the fxir sex in general. Xow the reason was this Mrs Lamphey kept a boarding-house for Commercial gentlemen and in that capacity Mr Jones had first become acquainted with the lady when he was in Pembroke on the ex- pedition to which allusion has already been made, That was some years ago but Mr Jones had ingra- tiated himself into Mrs Lamphey's good favour to such an extent, during his short stay at her house, that she begged him to call again when in that neigh" bourhood; and absolutely refused to accept any Honey from him. I treat yon as a fi'irnd. Mr .Toivs, was ^Fiamphev's remark on that occasion, and cannot think of charging >/oa anything." Mr Honier-Jones was not one of tlwsc men prfss their money upon ail unwilling creditor. He ^ppreciated Mis Lamphey's kir^ s and promised to come again (on the namo Mtad .n?) should he happen to be in her riuighbor.iMjB Time rolled on, and here Mr Homer Jones °vmd himself this evening, enjoying the society of as & landlady as Wale could produce. We are not so ill-natured as to put am* invidious construction upon the extraordinary action of Mr • on.? ;n l<;ssjng his hostess but it is just possible •at the worthy gentleman -thought he must mdea- 111 Rome \vav; to make np.f<>r gratuitous hoard i.}J.¿, .uig, A kiss or two might do it. There K barui iu it. Mi-s Lamphey was fully fifty j"" I fire years of age and (as she said to herself after the liberty had been taken, Mr Jones was a gen- tleman." "I wish to write a few letters," remarked Mr Homer-Jones, after a long conversation on general topics had taken place. You may go into the sitting-room, Mr Jones, and write there," said Mrs Lamphey. "Thank )ou, I will," returned Mr Jones and off he went to the room mentioned. Here lie was supplied with pen, ink, and paper, and left to his own occupation for awhile. The letters which Mr Homer-Jones wrote were those addressed to Mr Hamilton Barre and Mrs Fitzhugh. "Now," said Mr Homer-Jones to himself, when he had finished the letters and posted them, I am prepared for all contingencies. I can await calmly the issue of the fray." After bidding good-night to his kind hostess, Mr Homer-Jones retired to his bedroom. When he had fastened the door and placed his candle on the dressing table, he took from a small bag, which he carried with him into the bedroom, a small square wooden box. Opening the case Mr Jones produced something which shined brightly. It was a small but hand- somely fitted revolver. "Six chambers loaded," muttered Mr Homer- Jones, and he shall have the benefit of the lot (To be continued.)

RETURNING OFFICERS' EXPENSES. In the House of Commons on Friday, the Parliamentary Elections (Returning Officers) Act (1875) Amendment Rill was further con- sidered as amended. The schedule having been read a second time, various amendments were considered.-Sir Richard Webster moved to make the charge for each presiding officer in counties four guineas, with travelling expenses, instead of £5, including travelling expenses.— It was agreed, after a good deal of discussion, to make the charge four guineas in England and three guineas in Ireland. Other changes with reference to travelling expenses and allowances for clerks were considered, after which Mr Labonchere moved the re-committal of the Bill in respect of a new clause providing for the payment of the returning officers' expenses out of the rates.—Sir Richard Webster opposed the motion.—The Attorney-General urged that the matter should be fully discussed. He supported the motion as reasonable and just in itself.- Sir J. Fergussori contended that the motion was an abuse of the forms of the House, because it was foreign to the true object of the Bill. —Sir William Harcourt maintained that if these charges were paid out of the rates they would be kept down more effectually than when paid out of the pockets of the candidates.— Professor Stuart supported the motion as relevant to the Bill and as likely to facilitate the admission of members to Parliament who could not fight; against long purses.—Mr C. W. R. Cooke sup- ported the motion, and the House divided, when there were-for the motion, 9S against, it, 67 majority 31..—Sir Richard Webster intimated that he would not further oppose the clause, The House then went iuto Committee on the Bill, and Mr Labouchere moved a long clause providing that the returning officers' charges should be paid out of the rates.—This was agreed to without discussion, and the Bill was ordered to be read a third time on Wednesday.

THE INVASION OF IRELAND A TALE OF OXE KTTXDKED YEARS AGO. When the Great French Republic was in the first flush of its brief and blood-stained career, very determined effort was made by the revo- Lutionary party in Ireland to secure its assist- ance in establishing, by force of arms, an Irish Republic. In the same way that Mr 11 Parnell, and the Dynamitard factions, look to America to help them against England to-day, so the disloyal, a century ago, j' sought to obtain help from France. At that Lime the war with France was temporarily sus- ponded, and Great Britain was endeavouring to iriange terms of peace, and had actually offered to give up all the colonies we had taken from j France and Holland, if the Republic would testore its conquests in Europe. While these negociations for peace were still i in progress, the Directory (for so the Republi- can Government of France was called) were engaged in treating with the rebel party in Ireland for an invasion of that country, com- bined with a threatened attack on the shores of England. The self-appointed leaders of the r Irish people promised that five hundred thou- r sand men should immediately gather to the j, standard of +he Republic, and their acknow- j [edged design was to break off the connection with Great Britain, and confiscate every 3hilling of.British property in Irel iUd. They isked France for an army of 15,000 men, but mere than this was granted. General Hoche, c :n the north of France, and almost within sight < )f our shores, bad one hundred thousand nr H I under arms, with whom he was longing to 1 ittack Britain. Of these forces, twenty-nvj t thousand picked troops put out to sea, in a fleet ( jonsisting of fifteen ships of the line and eigbtce I 1 ;maller ships of war, 'and these were to have 1 been afterwards joined by seven other line of I I aattle ships. i It was in the middle of December that this c ^reat expedition set sai!, and so confident of its ] success were the enemies of Great Britain, that < ;hey risked the chance recovering the lost i Dolonies of France in the hope that Great ] Britain would soon be completely at their I nercy, and they should be able to dictate their )wn terms. But again it was, as it had been I n the days of the Great Armada, that the immi- ( lent danger to our beloved country was averted s ay no human agency, and all the designs of our 1 memies were brought to nought by an over- c ruling Providence. Our own preparations for defence were of the most insufficient character, I md many of the wisest and bravest men in i England were in dread of the result of the I ;hreatened invasion of Ireland. The British s Squadron, which was watching for the Fren ch leet, was caught in a heavy mist, and so lost ? sight of them, but a violent storm caused the f French ships to part company, and, almost at I lie outset, one was lost and several disabled, i Llie storm raged with great fury, and although r some of the ships actually arrived in Bantry t Bay, they were unable to find anchorage, and I- ,vere again driven out to sea. This was on the I 22nd December, 1796, and through the next a lay and night it blew very hard, with a heavy wa running, but on the 21th, the weather having ? noderated, a council of war was held, and it t tvas determined to laud the troops. A suitable f landing place was found, and all preparations ] ior landing were made but as it was by that c time late in the afternoon, the debarkation was c leferred till the morrow. Scarcely had the night s closed in, when again a terrific gale arose, in- y sreasing in violence all through the next day, so ] that the ships began to drive from their anchors. 1 One SO-gun man-of-war ran foul of a frigate f md totally dismasted her, while the Admiral's ( ship broke away from her cables and ran out to ] sea. For some days, so bad was the weather, the Admiral could not return, and when ho did, it was only to find Lis fleet hopelessly scattered md wrecked. The two Commanders-in-chief I of the French army had embarked on board a frigate named th6 and this ship; was separated from her consorts the day after f joining them, and on the day following (the 21st c December) she fell in with, and was nearly cap- t tured by a British frigate, but escaped during i the night. She had, however, run out to sea in t the chase, and it was eight days before she had a fair wind to return. When she did so, it was i only to meet two of the ships, one of which was in a sinking condition. The other two then set f sail for Erance. Again, by a mysterious dis- pensation, ill-luck befel them, for on the way < they sighted two British frigates, and changed their course to keep out of the way. Now these two British frigates were actually being chased by part of the French fleet, so that they must ] almost inevitably havo been taken hold the two French vessels joined in the attack. As it was, the Commanders-in-chief arrived in a French seaport in the last of the returning ships, having been at sea more than three weeks without scarcely seeing any of the vessels carrying the army they were to lead to the invasion of Ireland and conquest of Great Britain. History— writes the Author of the life of Lord Exmouth —records no event, not attended by direct mira- cle in which God's providence is more strikingly. displayed.' Once more, wrote Loul Rivers- Efflavit Deus et dissipantur —"God blew with his winds, and they were scattered. hucn is a brief account of the latest and most daugerous attempt to invade the island fortress of Bntam, when from the evil designs of our enenucs, the j Lord preserved this naf ion to be the instrument in delivering Enrope from the thraldom of mfi- delity and the power of France.

TALES THAT ARE TOLD. By J. HOWARD DKAZELEV, M.A.,Merton College. ANDROMEDA. Where restless sea-winds fire the soul like wine, Where sheer cliffs rise, and grimly breast the brine, Where billows break, and in sad cadence moan And sigh and die, a maiden stood alone. No painter's hand might limn, no sculptor's sight In dreams could form a face more brightly white, More supply slender, or a face more fair. Wind-wafted round het floated sunny hair That falling rose, and rising fell to fold Her shoulders close in streams of rippling gold More blue than summer seas or southern skies The tender beauty of her long-lashed eyes. As wooer's gaze, that hungers to be fed, j The golden sunshine on her golden head Fell lingeringly and lightly, and the air Stayed lovingly to greet her, passing there The very waves—she was so rarely sweet— Struggled to climb and kiss her dainty feet. For her who stood there helpless, hopoless, gyved, In vain the sun his loving lnres contrived His travel brings death nearer, and his eye, For all his love, must look ard see her die In vain the amorous air so fondly sighs, That air must aidless hear her parting cries In vain the waves leap upward to her feet, Those waves must bring the fate she dreads to meet. Self-pitying sorrow, and a rueful ruth Stole on her for the spring-tide of her youth Thus early blasted, and a vision rose That for the moment scattered all her woes, As melt the mists of morning, and awhile Came dreams that made her sleeping sadness smile. Flower-crowned she moved along a blissful bride A huro-lover happy at her side In all the beauty of his youth she saw, And word of each was to the other law. Then, with her waking, rained the hot salt tears, Returned the anguish of her frenzied fears And, as the day wore on to eventide, Awaiting doom a thousand times she died, And prayed at once to end this endless strain Of deathless death, these pangs of pangless pain. Outlined at last against the eastern sky She saw the shape of horror drawing nigh, And ever nigher, till her spirit quailed, The prayer for death upon her white lips failed And changed to wild entreaty for delay, For space of grace, for one hour's stop and stay. [n vain on heaven she calls, 110 god replies The slayer turns the glare of hungry eyes Upon her beauty, speeding on apace But when his hot breath burns upon her face, When towards its prey that awful presence springs, 3he heard the sudden swoop of waving wings, She saw the monster stiffen fold by fold, His hideous heat of glaring eyes grow cold And lifeless, as the sharp chill stayed his breath And froze his ghastly form to stony death. One sabre-clash that rings from rock to sea— The galling chains are riven, she is free. And so from death she passes unto life And love that dies not, love that from all strife Will safely shelter though the coming years, All pain will pity, and will dry all tears. Ah me the beauty of that teeming store Of old-world legends filled with tender lore, That links us to the lives and loves of yore, Which live and love amongst us evermore. To reach through fears and tears a peace complete, Fo gain through moil and toil a life love sweet, Who would not face such dread, such peril share [f work, or woe, might win a crown so fair ? —' The Oxford Review.1

Mr Phayre, with some sepoys md military policemen, left Minbu, where his headquarters were established, to attack Bosweh l notorious dacoit leader, who, with a band of >00 men, has for months past ravaged a wide listrict, extending almost from Thayet- nyo on the south to Yenangvoung, )n the north. Rosweh had for many (rears harried the Thayetmyo frontier. ( He was for some time confined in gaol, jut returned to his old haunts, whence he was vithdrawn on several occasions by the late Vtandalay Government, at the request of the Jhief Commissioner. About a month ago he ient a message to Mr Phayre, offering to give limself up if he was promised a pardon- His srimes had been so numerous and serious that VCr Phayre did not feel justified in promising a jardon. Mr Phayre's force defeated and drove n Bosweh's advanced guard. Mr Phayre then jroceedcd with a handful of men to attack a trong stockaded position held by the dacoits. While cheering on his men and leading on the ittack, Mr Phayre, who was exposed to a heavy t, ire in front and from both flanks, fell dead, nerced bv three bullets. The dacoits succeeded 1;( carrying off the body, which, unhappily, has lot been recovered. Mr Phayre's force then re- urned to Magwe, whence a strong column has teen despatched in pursuit of Bosweh. Mr i 5hayre was a son of General Sir Robert Phayre I iiid a nephew of General Sir Arthur Phayre. He vas an officer of great promise, and had shown • narked ability in administering the large and urbulent district of Minhla.

Ocn BRITISH TAR.—Our British tar is an odd fel- low, but there's something very noble about him for xll that. He's as remarkable for his dauntless bra- very as for his quiet humour, and though there's no < in iota of humbug or affectation in his nature, ever. acute observer will find no lack of devotion and re* | Snement. In 1799, Daniel Bryan, 'Old Dan' as he was called, was one of the crew of Le Tigre, com- t manded by Sir Sidney Smith, in the Mediterranean It is well known that Bonapart then commanding the French army in Egypt, was foiled in his repeated at- j tack on the wretched fortress of Acre, principally through the gallant resistance of the famous admiral above mentioned and his brave tars, who were landed for the purpose. Old Dan, full of pluck, begged to bs employed on shore, but as hu was rathei deaf as well £ ,q old his request was granted. At the first storming of the breach, one of the French generals was slain, and the Turks struck off the officc-r's head and It ft the bodytothc dogs. Dan was disgusted. He swore he d burv the officer himself-that he d been taken prisoner" by the French, and they'd always done, their duty to the dead. So taking the necessary implements and refusing companionship. L>an was let down out of a port-hole, close to the beach. The Fivnch ceased to fire on perceiving the humane intentions of our old hero, who had enough to lo in scaring away the dogs. Having consigned the general's body to parent earth, and placed a large stone at the head and another at the feet, our gallant tar took a piece of chalk from his pocket to write the inscription Here you lie, old Crop Dan was then hoisted ibt" the town. fcir Sidnev Smith, having been informed of the achieve- meut J ordered the old sailor to be called into the c.,hin: Well Dan; T hear you have buried th* French (v-neral V—'Yes. your honour.' —' Had you anybody i with vv.i ?'
