any.1 of great * our story, the begioni ry, covered with w through ths Sous, flags 0 clear rivulet, whose banks are alo thiokly wooded, with the exception of two or thres intervals that oouur at nesrly equal distances be- twecn the extremities of the ravine.Those intervals are beautiful spots of bright and level green; little natural esplanades, on which it wight be supposed the farics of yôro would delight to hold their midnight revels.hey wgre not fairies, however, though not uolike them io lightness and beauty of form, who ocoupied one of these little luwns, on a certain evening in the middle of June, 1510, but À touple of as pretty and lively girls 0s might be found in the whole of the ¢ North Countrie.\u201d They were sisters, and were, at the moment to which we refer, busily employed in washing and bleaching linen, a purpose for which the little plat was admirably adapted, ¢ girls were of humble rank, the daughters \"of a small farmer in the neigbbourhood.Their names were Mary and Jessie Mont gomery.In their ages there appeared little or no difference, snd it could not 10 reality have exceeded more than a single yoar.The eldest, Mary, might be about aighteen.The youngest about seventcen.They were both beautiful, though of different styles of beauty; Mary being dark and her sister fair.These young women were beth, as has been already remarked, of a lively and cheerful disposition ; but on the present occasion, for a reason which will shortly appear, one was, if not sad, ut least thoughtful and unusually sedate.In this mood, however, her light-hearted sister by no means participated.She rattled and sang and splashed away with all the gaiety of a young and guilcless heart.\u2019 It wus while the girls were thus employed, the one with a noisy glee, the other with a manner more composed and deliberate, that they were suddenly startled by the appearance of a -horseman on the opposite side of the stream.He had approached close to the bank, and was about to dash into the water with the purpose evidently of crossing ta the spot whero the .were at work, and that he should have thought of doing 20 was a proof that he dia not know that the river was unfordable at any time at 3 particular place, and still more dangerous PM its being much swollen by the recent rains.On sceing the horseman about.to take the stream, the youngest of the sisters ran to the bauk, and with a warning manner called on him to stop.\u20ac For what, my pretty maiden ?' shouted the horseman, but instiuctively obeying the injunetion by checking his steed.\u2018 Art afraid I mean to ran away with thee ?\u2019 \u201c «Not in the least afraid of that, sir, while there are so many in the land so much better worth running away with,\u2019 replied the lively girl with an ingenious blush.* What, then, why should I stop, my little goodspink, eh ?Because you'll be drowned if you attempt to cross,\u2019 replied Jossie.\u2018The water is more than deep enough there to take both you and your horse over the head.You must go down as far us yonder tree,\u2019 pointing to an isolated ash that hung over the stroam about a hundred yards below.\u2018 There you may cross safely.\u2019 ¢ Thank you, fair maiden, thank yon,\u2019 replied the stranger with a gracious smile, and with a gallant wave of his hand, us he turned bis horse's head towards the bank, having been already a Ed « little way into the water, to obey the friendly intimation given him.The dry land guined, he dushed down the bank, crossed the stream, came up on the opposite side, and, having in the interim dismounted, nresented hitnself to the sisters on foot, leading bigghorse behind him, having an arm carelesely pA through the bridle for that purpose.The girls, somewhat alarmed bj this morked intrusion, drew to onc side of the grass plat, but, after a momentary scrutiny of the stranger they perecived that there was nothing after all very alarming either in his manner or appearance, and, having made this discovery they be- gon to feel more at ease.His dress, or at least the most conspicuous part of it, was a short surcoat of Lincoln green, n eal, 4 8 plain black velvet bonnet and feather, and een russct boots.He was wholly unarmed, and tel in Mtod Without ornament or badge cf any description, St.Paul-«t} and had, altogether, so fur as dress went at any 8 in the cit] pate, the

- to the spot where the girls were at work, and, throwing himself down on the grass beside them, quickly involved them in a rattling, lively conversation, interrupted only by the bursts of laughter which the stranger's wit and happy badinage, from time to time elicited.The girls, in short, were delighted with their visitor.They had not laughed so much for a long while, nor for a long while had they mot with so lively and humorous a gallant.Even Mary's sorious mood gave way ot times before his face- tidus banter.Yet did not the general gravity of her demeanour escape his notice.Marking it, he fixed his eye steadily upon hor for a mo- went\u2014then said : , \u2018Now, my sweet maiden, I sce very plainly that there is something or other troubles that Lie heart of thine, Pray, now, tell me what it is.1 am skilled in tho discases of the heart, and, mayhap, I wight help thee to a remedy.\u2019 .Mary blushed, but made no reply.This, \u201c| however, her sister did for her.\u2018 he is

\u2018and, added Jessie, \u2018 he is a man of so unprincipled and vivdictive a disposition, that we Lavy no doabt he will keep his word in both cases.\u2019 * So, so, and this is tho way the matter stands,\u2019 said the stranger on the girl's concluding her story.\u2018A pretty fellow this laird of Monkton.I have heard something of him before, and rot much that was good, but I did not think he would have dared to meditate such a breach of the law as an assault on the king's peaceable subjects under such circumstances vs you mention.\u2018 As to turning your sister's husband, that is, husband to be, out of his farm that he way lawfully do certainly, if thefarmer owes him arrears of rent, unless the same be forthwith paid.But the threatened attack is a very differcut thing.He has no law to protect him there.\u2019 .* No, sir, he has not,\u2019 replied Jessie, ¢ but it\u2019s the weak ogainst the strong.The luird is rich and powerful, aud my brother-in-law to be is poor in purse and humble in condition.\u2019 ¢ No reason why he should be wronged though,\u2019 replied the stranger.\u2018 But I hope Monkton\u2019s bark will be found worse than his bite.I hope ho will not attempt the violence, at any rate, which he threatens;\u2019 and so saying he rose to his fect.WLen he had done so.¢ Now, my fair maidens,\u2019 he said, \u2018 you must invite me to the wedding to-morrow.will not be denied.What say you, bride elect?What say you Mary?Do you invite me ?\u2019 Mary blushed, and replied that she had no objection, and that she believed William would have no objection either.¢ None whatever,\u2019 interrupted Jessie.* Come, sir, and welcome.\u2019 ¢ The place?\" said the stranger.¢ Woodside.Sce, sir, yonder is \u2018the house.My father's house,\u2019 suid the former And she pointed to a neat and trig-lookinz farm-house, nestled in a clump of trees, at tha distance of about & quarter of a mile from where they stood.* The hour ?\u2019 again said the stranger.* Four of the afternoon.\u2019 \u201c Good,\u2019 replied the former.\u201cI will be pune- tual\u2019 And,ehaving said this, and bade the young women a good e\u2019cn, to which he added some of those pleusantries of which he seemed to possess an incxhaustible fund, he mounted his horse, dashed his spurs into his sides, bounded away at the utmost speed of Lis fiery charger, and almost instantly disappeared round the skirt of an adjoining thioket.On the following day the house of farmer Montgomery cxhibited many marked signs of the approaching festivities of which it was to be the scene.All its inmates were in their holiday dresses.There was a total cessation of labour both within aud around it; and the outgoers and Mmcowmers, all attired also in their best, were numerous und merry of mood.By-and-by the wedding guests were all as sembled, and conspicuous in the midst of them stood the bride and bridegroom.On tho brow of the latter there was, however, despite the oconsion, an expression of care and anxiety.The threats of Monkton, although they liad not been able to deter poor Riddel from wedding the woman of his Peart, had yet had the effect of depressing his spirits, und rendering him upeasy regarding the issue of the duy.And in these fears and feelings his young bride partook.As yet, however, no interruptions to the proceedings had tuken place, nor had any thing been scen of, or heard from Monkton.The wedding feast was now served up, the guests had taken their pldces around the festive board, and were about to full on the good things set before them, when their proceedings were interrupted for a moment by the sudden and abrupt entrance of an unknown guest \u2014unknown to all excepting the bride and her sister, and to.them only kuown as the person who had favoured them with his company by the river side on the preceding day ; for that-person and_lie who had Just entered were the same.\u2018 Ruther late, my friends,\u201d said the intruder, with a frank and cheerful manner.¢ Rather late, but better the end of à feast than the beginning of a fray.Now, good folks,\u2019 he continued, * my invitation here was something of an irregular ono, since it was rather sought thun piven, But I am very sure, judging by the kind looks and merey counten:nces uround me, that I shall not be the less welcomo on that ae- count.\u2019 The frank bearing and open manner of the unknown instantly secured him assurances of the welcome he anticipated from tho assembled friends and kinsmen of the young couple, and from no one were these assuranees more cordial than from the bridegroom, who at once guessed him to bo the persou whom his botrothed and ber sister had met with on the preceding day, and of whom they hud given him = highly favourable acrount.Having rcuewed his acquaintance with the two latter, and cxchanged with them sone hamorous sallies, appropriate to the occasion, the stranger took his pluce at the table beside the bridegroom: a situation which he expressed himsclf partieu- larly desirous to occupy.ating and drinking now became the order of the day, and the clattering of knives and forks rose predominant over all other sounds.By-and- by, huwever, the storm subsided, and with the wine flagons aud brandy measures, which shortly took the place of treuchers and pic-dishes, same the calm and comparative stillucss with which such storms are usually succeeded, .It was now that the stranger turaed his which he had desired it.This was whispering to him, so that none else might hear, the inquiry, \u2014whother he had heard auything further from, or of Monkton, oud whether he sil expcoted any intrusion from him during the eveuisg.% tho samo undertons in wb'ch these queries cow Tm, Ee a in a =.ro.atl.=.rr = Voeux Fetes vicinaga to tho bridegroom to th: purpose for | .; PTE ER ++ H were put, the bridegroom replicd, that he had | not heard anything further from Moektou.That he did not know whether he would carry his threat of disturbing them into execution, but that he had no doubt whatever that he would immediately ejeet him from bis farm, as he bad already commenced proceedings against him.* Then, what dost intend doing, friend,\u2019 said the strunger guest, in the event of Monkton's coming heré' to night?Are the company aware of the threatened assault by that person + No,\u2019 repliod the bridegroom, \u2018not all of them.I did not choose to alarm them by mentioning it.But there are one or two Friende prescat who do know it, and who, \u201cwith myself, are prepared to repel any aggression of the.kin threatened, although it is very possible, and likely, thut Monkton, should he come, will bring a greater number than we shall be able to cope with, '- However, thcy shall not get off with wholo skins eome in whit number they may.\u2019 xi this moment the noise of several persons taking loudly, and laughing Loisterously, wus heard at the door.In the next instant the latter was violently thrust open, and a stout, thickset personnge, with an insolent and swapg:r ing nir, but dressed asa gentleman, nnd followed by five or six persons of equivoeal rank and char- ucter, entered the apartment.It was Monkton and a posse of his friends, * Riddel, why don't you welcome your_landlord and his friends?said Monkton whose entrance had been marked with sullen silence.\u2018You have come here unasked Monkton,\u2019 replied the bridegroom, calmly, * and, therefore, need not be surprised that you are unwcl- comed.\u2019 ¢ Rather churlish, methinks,\u2019 said Monkton, who was evidently desirous of picking such a quarrel as should furnish hiw with an opportunity of proceeding to the violence he meditated.¢ Rather churlish, methinks.But no matter.Since these graceless folks have not the courtesy to offer us whe owith to drink the healths of tlie young people, we must e\u2019en help ourselves, I suppose; for we would by no means be bulked of thut happiness.\u2019 * Buying thie, Monkton scized a flagon of wine, and, having expressed some wishes for the prosperity of the young couple in a strain of mock sincerity, raised it to bis lips.Following the example of their leader, each of his followers, sll of whom were armed, did the sume thing; no one, as yet, offering to iuter- rupt thém, although it was evident from the bridegroom's friends who had been let into the secret of Moukton's intended visit, and from the burning cheek and kindled eye of the bride:room himself thut a scene of violence would instantly ensue.It was at this critical moment that the stranger guest, who had hitherto in no way interfered rose to his fect, and, looking sternly at Monkton suid: \u2014 ¢ Linird of Monkton, you appear to me to be both au unbidden und unwelcome guest here, and, seeing this, 1 expect that you and your followers will instantly retire, and no further interfere with or disturb the party here asscm- bled.\u2019 \u2018 You expect this, do you, my gillant,\u201d ex- cluimed Monkton, contemptuousy, \u2018and, pray, who are you that indulge in such presumptuous expectations ?' ¢ It matters not who I ain,\u2019 replied the stranger, calmly; \u2018since I huve only expressed the general sentiment of all here present with the exception of yourself and full:wers,, * Very good.sir ;\u2019 said Monkton, with a sneer ; * but as my friends and I have come here sally for the purpose of doing all honor to the present most happy occasion, it would, methinks, be but scurvy treatment te turn us to the door, and, to tell you a truth, we have no intontion whatever of submiting to such courtesy.\u2019 Then, if you remain, Monkton, I must depart,\u2019 said the stranger, aud he instantly left the table ; having previously touched the bridegroom on the shoulder, as a signal for Lim to step aside with him a moment.The latter did so.\u2018Now, Riddel,\u201d smd the former, in a low whisper, ¢ leave this matter in my hands.I will manage it tor you muth better thom you could do yourself.I am going to leave you for a short and you must promise me that, let Monkton and his followers do or say what they may, you will not 1esent it by any violence till T return.Let them have all their own way for that brief space, and, I warrant you, they will not seck to have it longer.\u2019 Having said this, and, having obtained a reluctant consent from the bridegroom to bear patiently with Mookton's insolence for the time epecified, the unknown guest left the house.On doing so, he proceeded with quick step to a little knoll, or rising ground, at the distunce of about three or four hundred yards, and, having gaived the summit, drew out from beneath lis suvooat a emall bugle horn, turned his face to- the westward, raised the horn to his lips, and hiew n short but shrill blast that might have been heard at the distance of several miles.Having done this, he replaced the bugle in its concealment, and, without waiting for any result, hurried back to the house, and, re-entering the apartment which he had so recently left, with a smiling countenance said.* Back again, you sec, my friends.So delighted with the society of the laird here,\u2019 inclining his head to Monkton, \u2018 that I could not, after all, tear myself away from him.\u2019 * What, dost got insolent, sirrah?\u2019 shouted Monkton, starting hastily to his feet, and clapping bis hand on the hilt of his sword, : .*Patienoe, patience, my good friend,\u2019 said the unknown, smiling and putting him on the shoulder, with an ironical deprecation of wrath ; his head inclined, nt the same time, as if listening for sowe sound which he ex to hear.A moment after, the thundering noise of a nuwber of horse in full gullop was heard, It came nearer und nearer.It came close to the house.It suddchly ceased.In the next in- staat a dosco troopers, or men-at-arms, héaded by two or three psroons of superier rank, burst in upon the astovished guests, and still more astonished intruders, * Come away, my friends.Just in time,\u2019 said the unknown, who gprtouk of none of the surprise of the others, a A minute laver, and this goutiemas would, su , have cut m throat, Look to thees gallante, dy friends,\u2019 be added, pointing to Moskton's followers, * Show them the wey to the door, snd let them, there- t RET \"pr impatient looks and gestures of those of the | jecting reasonable.\u2026 4 dOui Lou used s 4 eJ : Vosindt iil Lined sed 1 eut URREE - nit ! se UNTINGDON, CE, FRIDAY.MARCH 31, 1865.ufter, be safely conducted to Stirling Castle, to abide further proceedings.\u2019 No sooner said than done.Each of Monkton's Tetainera was seised by two men-at-arms, disarmed, led to the door, where they wera left in charge of a party of mounted troopers, by whom the house was surrounded.Daring this interval Monkton, confounded by the strangeness of the proocedings passing before him, bad said nothing; but at length resuming Mls usual effrontery of manncr.¢ I should like much to know,\u2019 he said, addressing the unknown personage, \u2018 who you are, tr, who thus make prisoners of my friends with.Lout law or reason \u201c Should you ?\u2019 replicd the latter with a swile, * Well, it is n reasonable curiosity, and it shall be gratified.My Lord Marchbank, come hither,\u2019 he continued, now beckoning to one of the gentlemen who: headed the men-at-arms, and who, with the others of apparently similar rank, was standing at a respectful distance.My Lord Marchbank, cue hither, he said, ¢ and inform this gentjeman who I am.\u2019 \u2018Does he not know your grace ?' replied the latter, coming forward, amiliogly.* This personage, sir,\u2019 looking to Monkton, ¢is your king \u2014our gracious and liege sovereign, James Fourth of Scotland.\u2019 ¢ Have you ever heard of such a personage before ?\" said James laughingly, and looking at the confounded and discomfited laird.* Come now, Monkton,\u2019 continued James, but now with a mcre serious eountenanee, ¢ this has been a bad business; and but for a chance circumstance would, I have no doubt, have been a great deal worse, I am therefore much disposed to send you also to Stirling Castle, as I intended doing by your followers; yet, if you will promise me that you will not, in time to come, in any way disturb or molest young Riddel here, or any one belonging to or connected with him, on his account will for this time forego all further proceedings agninat you, and sct both you and your followers at liberty.\u2019 The prowise hore exacted, we need hardly say, wus at once given.When it had\u2014 \u2018Now, Monkton,\u201d ssid James, \u2018though we would restrain and punish your violence, we would not deny you justice, nor interpofe our authority to the injury of your interests.You have lawful cluims, | understand, on young Riddel here, formoncys he owes you.Send these claims in to my treusurer, and they will be discharged.Now, my friend, retire, aud take your followers along with you.But, mark me, Monkton, added James emphatically, and pro- his forefinger towards the former as he spoke, ¢ if you break the promise you have now made me, expect no sccond forgiveness at my hands On Monkton\u2019s leaving the apartment, which he now immediutely did, too glud to get off so easily, Jumes took up a goblet of wine, drank prosperity to the youny couple, and replacing the vessel on the table, said\u2014 \u2018Now, my friends, that I hinve settled this matter, 1 look for my reward ; it is but fuir nnd I must have n kiss of the bride.\u2019 Saying this, he approach J the blushing fair one, put his lips to ber burning cheek, and, as he did so, threw aruund her neck à chain of wassive gold.¢ Farewell, then, my friends,\u2019 now added Jamca, buwing gracefully to the company.who were all standing in respectful deference to the royal presence.\u2018 Fuvewell, bride and bridegroom, know where to look for a friend when onc is wanted.\u2019 Ce Huving said this, the gallant monarch left the apartment, followed by his nobles and guards, flung himself into his saddle,\u2014a horse having been hold in waiting for him, and rode off at full speed in the direction of the tewn of Stirling.Such is the tradition of one of the many nd- ventures of James the Fourth of Scotlund\u2014he who perished at the futal fight ef Flodden.\u2014 ee ee = ACT TO PREVENT CRIMPING.Just before Puilianient rose, the foilowing act for the benefit of crimpers was made law : \u2014 \u201c1.1f any person whatever in this Province shull hire, retain, engage or procure, or shall attempt or endeavour to hire, retain, engage or procure, any natural-born subject of Her Ma- space ;

publication, Aa to describe minutely the country over which they passed during these five months, would bo to hl your columns with a cataloguo of names, unintelligible without a mop, let it suffice to say, that they crossed the island in scverul di rections, and made lateral deviations at numoe- ous points, pussing altogether over 1,340 miles of uew country, and exploring, in a tolerabl complete manner the southern half.OF this distance nearly G00 miles were travelled on foot, more than 700 by canoe, and the remainder by rafts.In the discovery of minorals, the expedition met with great success, fluding al- wost immediately, valuable veins of copper, apparently inexhuustible in extent ; gold was found on all bars of the Cowichan River, up to three cents per pan, with indications of richer diggings ; und this was followed by the discov- ory of very rich fronstone in large quantities.In the neighbourhood of the Cowichan Rive they found open tracts of ngrienltural land, nitogether many thousand ncres.Traces of nickel and plumbago were met with : but prob- was that of bituminous coal, on the coast, close to deep water, ond the outcropping of which un white pine, the latter, from its rarity on the coust, being of great value.Dr.Brown, the new pine; and they brought down to Victoria, for carving purposes, à fine log of arbatus, which, in the interior, attsins to considerable dimensions.To quote the words of Dr.Brown, * the spars and Jamber alone, with their capa bilities of being flouted to the wea, would prove à certain fortune to any man with capital enough to buy an axe and a grindstone.Man edible wild fruits were found, and a large col lection of interesting seeds was made.OF the larger kinds of unimals they saw and shot decr and elk, the latter being in great droves; bears, beavers and wolves were very numerous; mar te:s aud racoons were alo plentiful ; grouse and wild duck are described as being found to any extent.The number of lakes in the inter- jor is very considerable; at one place, from \u2018Comox to Alberni, a chain of seven reach nearly across the island\u2014 mont between the enemy and the 9th corps this morning, orders were given for the Gth corps to make on attuck on the left of the line front of Fort Fisher.The 3rd division, General Seymour commander, was sclected as the assaulting column, and shortly after noon , the line of battle was formed and tho order to advance given.Iu a short time our men had possession of the entire line of rifle pits of the cnemy, nearly.all the occupants having been made prisoners.Our loss in the affair was very trifling.Over 609 prisoncrs were brought in as the result of the engagement.Still snother fight took place at Hutcher's Run, in which the Znd corps wus on- gaged.The attack was made about dark.Ovar 400 prisonors fell into our hands on this and {ook priso- ada, the larger union is a thing of the future, are ominous words.Federsl union of the Cunadas?will never consent to this.laugh in
