 A Short Tale of Black Superstition

LACK CUNJER’S CABIN was in the thick of the pine woods where the saw-mill had been located for a month. It had proved difficult to find any negroes in that vicinity willing to work there; money was no object when they feared Black Cunjer's wrath.

They believed he exercised a sort of proprietorship over the forest—a claim much stronger than that of the actual property owners, a corporation which knew nothing and cared less about local superstition. Certain it is that from time immemorial Black Cunjer had lived in the heart of the woods, where the pines grew closest and the shadows made twilight of midday. There, it was whispered, within a semi-circle of tall trees he worshipped his god, and burned fire before him on black nights.

It was a mystery how the ancient negro managed to subsist, for there was no garden, nor cultivated acres about his dilapidated cabin. It was rumored that he ate bats and moles, and that this repulsive fare gave him "night eyes," so he could see in the dark. His eyes did have a curiously sunk expression, imparting to his wizened face an unearthly aspect.

No one knew Black Cunjer's age; the negroes thought he came straight from Africa two hundred years ago. Judge Blake said he remembered when the old man had been a boy on his father’s plantation, and that he clung to the cabin in the pine woods now, because his young wife had died there years ago and was buried in the semi-circular space of trees. Because they guarded her rest, and witnessed his religious rites for her soul, he had grown to regard the pines as sacred.

It was true that Judge Blake appeared to be the only person of either race with whom the solitary negro ever held communication, but the judge, after all, was in his dotage and given to queer fancies. In spite of the fact that a few had seen—so they said—a mound under the tallest trees resembling a grave, it was impossible to connect Black Cunjer with human ties, however long past.

On the rare occasions when he appeared among the negroes, they were excessively polite, but after nightfall they shunned his cabin as a haunted spot.

The order had gone forth that the entire pine woods must be cut. Some of the logs were to be shipped down the river, and the rest cut into cord wood before the end of September. Work had progressed slowly, for there had been much trouble in securing and keeping enough men for the job; finally, about midsummer, a new foreman was sent down with orders to rush things through at all costs.

This foreman was a huge, hulking brute called Hock Oberman. He came from "out yonder," with a record for getting results. He had worked only among the lowest class of laborers—mainly foreigners—and rose to his present position by his undoubted power over subordinates. He had had no previous experience with "niggers," but he boasted to the few poor whites, who would consort with him in the village, that he’d sweat the soul out of those fool blacks for once in their lives, and get the pine woods cleaned up on schedule time.

For a month after his arrival at the sawmill the work progressed much more quickly. From early dawn until sunset the chug-chug of the engine mingled with the voices of the negroes as they felled the trees, hauled the logs, or joked around the campfire at night.

Oberman was a great drinker, and it began to be rumored that he supplied the workmen with liquor. He always said—when questioned—that he "had a system," accompanying this cryptic remark with a wink from his small, close-set, cruel eyes.

It seemed to work—for a time. Finally all of the larger trees had been cut, except those surrounding Black Cunjer's cabin, for the radius of half a mile. Then trouble began. For some reason, the gang sent day after day to fell those trees returned empty-handed. Once, three axes broke in succession; another time, a gnarled pine, falling on a workman, seriously injured him,

The day after this catastrophe Oberman drove the negroes out to the woods with threats and curses. They went, muttering sullenly. But less than an hour afterward, in the midst of crashing thunder and livid streaks of lightning, they came running back to camp, nor could they be moved to stir beyond shelter for the rest of that day.

Oberman raged and swore in a frenzy. Utterly ignorant of the type of creature he was dealing with, he could stir no response from the sulky group of negroes.

Then something happened that again gave him the upper hand.

After the storm a steady drizzle had set in; now, at nightfall, the gray skies and cold rain made the gloom inside the rude buildings less preferable than the fire built under a shed. This was open on three sides, facing the branch road which skirted the edge of the forest.

The few white laborers whom Oberman had brought down with him were inside the bunkhouse playing cards by the light of several tin lanterns swung from the low roof. But the negroes were huddled around the fire outside, talking softly among themselves, now that Oberman had finished his harangue.

Tom, a strapping, light-colored negro, who the foreman said was the only one with a spoonful of brains, spoke in a vibrant undertone that sent an electric tenseness through the group:

"Dyah he now," Tom said—"dyah ole Black Cunjer comin' up de road straight to'ard dis camp! Lordy, lordy, he gwine trick us all... he say nobody cyant cross his threshold—he gwine cross ourn now"—his voice died in a sort of wail.

Oberman whirled round on them.

"You damned fools—what can one old half dead nigger do against all this bunch? If you just wasn't afraid of him—like me—you'd see some sense!" His voice rose boastfully. "I bet I can look at him—and he'll go where he belongs."

If the bent figure slowly approaching the shed heard these words he gave no sign. The negroes, moaning, shrank closer together. Oberman seized his chance to show them. Raising his voice, he shouted across the dim curtain of mist: 46

Rh that night, except display lights at our mast heads, but with the break of day I sent a party in one of the boats to explore. Of course I had to let poor Gell, who had scarcely spoken since he heard the news, and looked ten years older, take charge of this crew, but indeed he had much ado to get together a crew at all. With the alarm of the previous night all the old terror had revived in redoubled force. It was only after much entreaty that I got half-a-dozen of the fathers whose children had been saved to volunteer to look for their saviour. Even then they would not go on shore. They rowed Gell thither, and promised to wait while he landed and tried to discover what had occurred. Everything confirmed the children's tale. Here were the deep wheel-tracks, winding about in complex curves; here and there the mark of a little foot, which he recognised only too well. Presently the tracks entered the wood, still continuing their devious course, with sudden turns round large trees where the poor girl had tried to evade their approach. Had there been but one she might have escaped, but as the monsters assailed her from both sides at once there was little possibility of out-manœuvring them.

60 At last he found some actual relics of the final struggle. The footsteps were close together; the wheel-tracks circled round and converged; and there, close beside a great tree, were some scraps of stuff and feathers, which he recognised as being portions of her hat and shawl. It appeared that this tree was Aurelia's last resource. Here she had, it seemed, evaded them two or three times by doubling rapidly round it, till, her strength becoming exhausted, they had simultaneously made a rush and torn her to pieces where these relics were found.

Returning to the boat, Gell found that he was deeper in the wood than he had imagined, and would have had some trouble in finding his way but for a pocket compass he carried with him. He brought the poor fragments, which were all that remained of my dear girl, and which we have treasured as the early Christians used to treasure the blood of their martyrs. The sudden shock and grief for her loss turned my black hair quite grey in a week, and for her dear sake Gell long remained a bachelor.

Our own dangers were not at an end, and this time they came from a quarter whence they were not ex-

 of his apartment flew open, and a white figure was going to enter the room.

"Fearless," these are his own words, "did I start up, unsheath my sword and run towards the phantom; it retreated, but I pursued, and pierced it with my sword, it gave an hollow scream, but what farther happened I cannot tell, I awoke as if from a deluding dream, and was lying stretched on the floor at the bottom of the stairs, surrounded by a great number of people with lighted candles; terrible pains had seized me, and my sword was still in my hand."

When the narrator had finished his wonderful tale, I perceived visible marks of its authenticity on his face, and inquired whether he had been hurt by the fall. He told me he had suffered no material injury except a few bruises.

The Austrian began now to question him.

 "Have you perceived any thing uncommon before that strange accident happened?"

Officer. Nothing at all except an insignificant noise, after twelve o'clock.

Austrian. Have you, perhaps, before you met with that misfortune, been thinking on my tale of Volkert's exploits?

Officer. (Vexed.) I was writing to my Colonel, how could I therefore think on that fellow? Or do you think it impossible that any one besides you can experience things, the possibility of which you have proved by facts.

The Austrian, apparently lost in profound meditation, gave him no answer, but was walking up and down in solemn silence.

Our companions acquainted us now with the purport of their visit, signifying a desire to encounter the kingdom of spirits and hobgoblins in pleno corpore, under the command

 feared they must either spill or blow up, and hurry me over Peggy's ears from the woollen cloth I rode upon. For father always liked a horse to have some wool upon his loins whenever he went far from home and had to stand about, where one pleased, hot, and wet, and panting. And father always said that saddles were meant for men full-grown, and heavy, and losing their activity; and no boy or young man on our farm durst ever get into a saddle, because they all knew that the master would chuck them out pretty quickly. As for me, I had tried it once, from a kind of curiosity; and I could not walk for two or three days, the leather galled my knees so. But now, as Peggy bore me bravely, snorting every now and then into a cloud of air, for the night was growing frosty, presently the moon arose over the shoulder of a hill, and the pony and I were half glad to see her, and half afraid of the shadow she threw, and the images all around us. I was ready at any moment to shoot at anybody, having great faith in my blunderbuss, but hoping not to prove it. And as I passed the narrow place where the Doones had killed my father, such a fear broke out upon me that I leaned upon the neck of Peggy, and shut my eyes, and was cold all over. However, there was not a soul to be seen, until we came home to the old farmyard, and there was my mother crying sadly, and Betty Muxworthy scolding.

"Come along, now," I whispered to Annie, the moment supper was over; "and if you can hold your tongue, Annie, I will show you something."

PETERSON’S MAGAZINE.

Vol. XVII. THE RISING TIDE.

BY CHARLES J. PETERSON.

CHAPTER I.

“‘Whither do you ride today, my dear?” said Mrs. Florence to her daughter, as the latter, attired in a handsome equestrian dress, entered the parlor.

“I don’t know, mamma—just where the fancy of the moment takes me,” replied the daughter, stooping to kiss her mother’s forehead, and then proceeding to arrange her riding hit before ‘tire mirror.

“Do not go far, my child. I never see you venture out thus alone without a presentiment that something is to happen.”

“But you have so many presentiments, and all to no purpose,” gaily replied her daughter, “that I think we can afford to disregard them by this time. Yet, mamma,” she said, approaching her parent again, and throwing a fair arm fondly around the neck of that loved object, ‘if it really alarms you, I will give up riding.”

The widowed mother looked up fondly at her beautiful child, and kissing her, said—

“No, no, Alice, you shall not deprive yourself of almost the sole pleasure left to you. Pursue your daily rides. In this primitive district, so far removed from the high roads of commerce, there can be no real peril in riding out unattended: it is an idle, foolish fear on my part: only as you were always accustomed, in your dear father’s life, to have a servant when you rode, it seems odd to see you now without one: that is all; I dare say I shall soon get accustomed to it, as to other sacrifices.”

“Never think of it as a sacrifice again, mamma,” replied the beautiful girl. ‘Nothing is a sacrifice to me, while I have you left.”

‘God bless you, Alice,” answered the mother. “I am glad that, notwithstanding our reverses, you can still keep your beautiful Arab.”

Alice for reply put her arm around her mother’s waist, and drew her to the window. A superb white steed, ready caparisoned, and held by the sole male servant of the establishment, who officiated as groom and gardener both, stood pawning the earth in front of the cottage.

“Is he not beautiful?” said Alice, enthusiastically. ‘‘I do believe, dear mamma, that, next to you, I love Arab better than anything on earth. How fleetly he carries me! How boldly we leap the ditches and fences in our way! Oh! mamma, there is nothing so exhilirating as to gallop over the hills on a bracing October morning like this, and as you reach each new acclivity, catch a taste of the sea-breeze that drifts far inland, when the wind, as now,is from the east. And then, to pull up on some lofty height, and see glimpses of the ocean away in the distance, with perchance a sail whitening his dark, green bosom. Nothing, nothing makes the blood so dance in the veins, or fills the heart with equal exultation!”

The parent looked up admiringly at her child as the latter thus spoke: and indeed others, less favorably prejudiced, might have done the same. Alice was one of those tall, aristocratic-looking creatures, who, notwithstanding a certain slim- ness, realized, perhaps, the highest ideal of female beauty. Her figure was of the lordly Norman type, and perfect in its proportions; while every movement was graceful, yet dignified. Her face was of that almost divine beauty which we see in the Beatrice Cenci of Guido. The same dazzling complexion, the same blue eyes, the same golden hair; but combined with these also the same air of high resolve and almost masculine courage chiseled about the lines of the brow and mouth. Her countenance, always lovely, was now tran- scendantly beautiful, for it glowed all over with enthusiasm.

Vol. XVII. THE RUNAWAY MATCH.

BY JANE WEAVER.

“Caroline, I wish you would remain a moment,” said Mr. Warren, as his daughter was about to leave the parlor.

“Well, papa,” she said, “what is itt”

She strove to look unconscious, but her varying color, and the nervous movement of her lips, he-. trayed secret agitation; in fact she suspected the parpose of her parent.

“I thought,” eaid Mr. Warren, “thet, when I forbade young Collins my house, you were pre- pered to submit to the prudence of my decision. We talked the matter over, Caroline, if you remember, and I was at considerable pains to convince you that he was idle, wasteful, and, I feared, dissipated, in short » very unfit person for any woman to trust her happiness with. Yom silently agreed with what I said, at least you ssid nothing in reply. I fancied I had per guaded you, for I thought your own good sense, to which I appealed, would see the matter ine ight similar to that in which I ond your mother beheld it, Judge then of my inoxproseibie pain when I caw you walking, arm-in-arm, with him, in tho outskirts of the city, to-dey.”

He paused, and Caroline held down her head abashed. «I was not mistaken,” she said, to herself, “it was pa whom I saw.”

Mr. Warren waited, for more than 6 minute, for her to reply, but, as she continned silent, ho went on—-

Now, Caroline,” he said, “I wish you to look on me, as what I am, the best friend you have in the world, aud one who has no motive, much lest any wish, to advise you wrong. It isa common mistake of young people, especially of those of to suppose that their parents wish to See arom, Gris cess Tithe iret sartiages Believe me, nothing is generally further from 6 parent's thonghts! It is not unfrequent indeed that a father differs from a daughter as to the wisdom of her uniting herself with a certain suitor; but, in such cases, the father is, nine times out of ten, right, and the child wrong. ‘The patent, from his knowledge of men, from what he hears on the street, and, from other sources, usually arrives at a juster conclusion respecting 8 young man’s character, than s daughter, who lias litéle, or no means of ascertaining the trath, In the case of this young Collins, ¥ Anow him to ‘be extravagant, idle, occasionslly intemperate in his habits, and head over ears in debt: besides this he haa a violent temper. I beseech you, Caroline, my dear, do not give way farther to this infatuation of yours.”

As Mr. Warren spoke, he approached his daughter end tenderly took her hands. She Durst into tears, looked up into his froe, and said—oh! but, papa, I love him, and he loves me: he says he will throw himself away if I do not marry him: surely, surely, if I can, I ought to reform him.”

‘Mr. Warren shook his head. «Carolino,” he said, severely, “this is sheer folly, miserable infatuation! No woman ever reformed man, ‘whose principles were so loose as those of Col- Tins; a wretch, who, in his own words, will throw himeelf away if you do not marry him. Listen to my words, child, for you are weaker then I thought, and I must rule where I would prefer to persuade-—if ever you marry Collins, from that hour this house is shut sgainst you.”

‘The tears of Caroline flowed faster. Mr. War- ren, after a turn or two across the room, softened again, and addressed her in kinder tones—

“My child,” he said, “I speak thus for your own good. I know, if you marry Collins, that you will regret it, and I would, by interdicting it, spare you much future sorrow. I will never urge you to unite yourself with any man you do not fancy, however excellent I may think him to be; this, I promise you; and, on your part, T shall expect you to give up this acquaintance.

] such common occurrence. It may, however, be more common than is generally supposed, as it is likely to be overlooked.

It is more especially with respect to the last two species that our remarks will henceforth apply. After a little observation and practice in distinguishing these two plants in the water, it will be noticed that the Gibbous Duckweed has a more luxuriant appearance, a brighter green colour, and a more polished surface than its lesser neighbour. It will be seen to display a more convex face, and its habitat is quite different, for whilst the Lesser Duckweed can be found only in tolerably clear water, the Gibbous Duckweed affects those localities where one might expect to find typhus fever and cholera morbus rampant. The amateur in search of the latter species must look for a pestilent and loathsome ditch, rich with the putrid remains of dead dogs and defunct cats. In such a place the Gibbous Duckweed grows and fattens, for, be it noted, this is probably the sole cause of its gibbosity. If the said ditch is followed towards one of its extremities, where the water may be purer, it will certainly be found that the Gibbous soon becomes mixed with the Lesser, and, at last, in the pure element the Lesser Duckweed reigns supreme. The above circumstances first became known to us by accident. Knowing the Gibbous Duckweed to be rare, and the "rarity" having at length been found, three or four hundred fronds were collected, and placed in an aquarium, covered with a flat glass to induce flowering to take place, without the least effect. In the course of three or four days, a botanical friend was shown the plants of the Gibbous Duckweed, and lo! they were no longer gibba, but were all minor. The experiment was repeated time after time, whenever the Gibbous Duckweed was taken from its unclean element, and placed in purer water, it immediately put the Banting process into operation, and got rid of its superfluous fat, ultimately becoming a Lesser Duckweed. This would tend to show that these two species are one and the same, the particular habitats causing the species to become either bloated or thin. It is necessary to see how far this idea can stand the test of investigation. The only trustworthy difference between the two species is in the ovules; for whilst in the gibbous form, two or more are said to be produced in each ovary, those of the Lesser Duckweed produce but one. The difficulty, therefore, is reduced to this,—can a plant, which has normally a one-seeded ovary, occasionally bear two ovules or seeds? In both species the ovules are probably always suspended, as in the Lesser Duckweed (fig. 7), whilst in the Ivy-leaved Duckweed the ovules are erect. We think that it is in the experience of every botanist that a one-seeded ovary, under certain circumstances, will bear two ovules; and, if so, where is the line of demarcation between these two species? The only way to decide it would be to reduce the gibbous form in pure water, and force it to flower, if possible, and see if, under the altered conditions of the fronds, one ovule or two would be produced.

A very economical aquarium may be extemporized for these little plants in a tumbler, a fish-globe, in fact any open glass vessel, and there will always be something to study, often something to learn. The mode of growth of the fronds is very interesting, and can be seen best in the Ivy-leaved Duckweed; an enlarged figure, drawn from nature, is given (fig. 13).

Fig. 13. Fronds of Ivy-leaved Duckweed (enlarged), showing mode of growth. Fig. 14. Section of frond of the same species.

If a single frond be taken, it will be found that nearly the only part solid throughout is where the midrib would be, if the frond were like a leaf. The leaf-like expansion on either side consists of two plates, one at the top, and one at the bottom, with a fissure between them (as shown in the section, fig. 14). Within this fissure, on either side, grow secondary fronds, each with similar lateral fissures, from

 calicoes manufactured on the Indian peninsula. About the same time, as we have already seen, the heavy but enterprising Dutchmen had begun to entertain the same notions. They however directed their attention more to the Coast of Coromandel, whilst the English were more attracted by the Coast of Malabar. As early as 1610 the Dutch began to build a square fort on the Pulicat lake. The English found more difficulty in establishing themselves. The Portuguese were as yet the lords of the continental trade; but whilst they possessed settlements at St. Thomé and other spots on the Coromandel Coast as far as the mouths of the Ganges and Straits of Malacca, yet their chief trade was on the Coast of Malabar. For nearly a century, the town and fort of Goa, about half way down the Malabar side, had been the centre of their commerce and the seat of their power. There they had led a life of intolerance and luxury, of piety and oppression. They also possessed another important settlement at the ancient town of Surat ; near the top of the same coast, and about 400 miles northward of Goa. Surat, which is mentioned in the Ramayana, has been famous for its commercial wealth from time immemorial. Swarthy traders from Jerusalem and Sidon, from Memphis and Aden, from the Egean Sea and the Persian Gulf, had anchored in the river Taptee and crowded the narrow streets of Surat,—had sunned themselves in the smiles of Surat beauty, and laid their offerings upon her idol shrines, — when Priam yet reigned in Troy, when Solomon held the sceptre of Judah from his golden throne and

Rh chocolate is melted, then remove dish from hot water to ice water, and beat chocolate gently until

it feels a little cooler than the hand, or registers between 80° and 85° F. on the thermometer. This will take from five to twenty minutes, depending on the temperature of the room and the amount of chocolate used. At no time should temperature of chocolate go above 125° or below 80° F.

When large numbers of centers are to be dipped, the melted chocolate is poured on a marble slab, and the beating is done with the hand and the dipping with the fingers.

Much experience is necessary to produce the markings seen on the best chocolates. The amateur will probably prefer to use a wire bonbon dipper or a two-tined fork. For small centers, like nuts, a small pair of tweezers is useful.

Set the dish of chocolate on the table with centers to be dipped on the left, and chocolate dipping paper, paraffin paper, or white table oilcloth on the right. It is well to have the paper on small boards or tin sheets that candies may be easily moved.

Different designs on top sometimes indicate the kind of center. Between the dipping of every bonbon the chocolate must be thoroughly beaten.

Chocolates sometimes harden very quickly. On a warm day they must be put in the refrigerator as soon as coated, for ten minutes or until hard.

If the chocolate is neither too warm nor too cool and was beaten sufficiently, and chocolates were cooled quickly enough, they will have a gloss and retain the markings perfectly. If they are gray or streaked, they did not cool quickly enough. If spotted, the chocolate was not beaten enough. If chocolate runs off and forms a thick base, it was not cool enough. If the least bit of steam or water gets in it, the chocolate will become thick and unfit for coating but may be used for cooking purposes. If it does not remain thin enough for dipping, a small piece of cocoa butter may be added, or the water underneath may be heated slightly, when chocolate must be beaten again. Chocolate may be left in the dish in which it was melted and be ready for use at any time.

If chocolates are to be decorated, the nut, dragées, candied fruit, or other decoration must be put in place as soon as the bonbon is placed on the paper. Chocolates may be rolled in cocoa-nut, chopped roasted almonds, or pistachio nuts immediately after dipping.Chopped nuts may be stirred into the melted chocolate before the centers are dipped.

Do not remove dipped chocolates from wax paper or oilcloth until the bottom is glossy and chocolate is firm.

Chocolates should be packed in boxes between layers of wax paper as soon as hard. A few of the chocolates may be wrapped in gold or silver foil. They should be kept in a cool, dry place, and should at no time be exposed to the rays of the sun. They should not be placed in the vicinity of articles that give off strong odors, as chocolate is very absorbent.

Prepare coating chocolate as for dipping and beat until cool enough to hold its shape. Put into a cloth or paper pastry bag with a small tin

2 This is very nearly being a perfect definition of a Sham Swell. They are not, men or women, quite snobs; but it is difficult, at all times, where to draw the line which separates them.

Come, dear reader! Our acquaintance has been improving lately. Take thy walk abroad with me: we will seek them in their lairs. First, we'll have a chop at the club, and then withdraw to the —the only real —as a sure find.

So, the chop was succulent. It is day. The view in St. is charming. What ho, waiter!—draw two chairs to the window: we will view the duchesses and grocers' wives as they proceed to pay their respects to Royalty. The cigar box, two claret glasses filled with crushed ice, a slice of lemon, powdered sugar, and pour Scotch whisky in up to the brim. Wait, wait! O beloved and too thirsty one!—wait till the spirit hath melted the ice; or, by my halidome, thou wilt be borne hence on base shoulders to the nearest station. Now refill with ice, and drink, and be thankful.

I am fortunate in being able at once to draw your attention to a very favourable specimen. Do you see that individual who has taken up his position at the farther window, where he will remain all the afternoon, to the great delight of the other members, who do not consider him a creditable ornament to the club? When he appeared in the candidates' book as "Count Walter de Créçy," everybody thought he was a distinguished foreigner, especially as he was proposed by a Duke, and seconded by a Viscount. It turned out afterwards that he was the son of old Watercresches, a fence, who "melted" for many years, with great success, at the back of a black doll shop in Houndsditch, and subsequently obtained high civic honours. His son, after he left Harrow, was sent abroad for five years with a suitable bear leader, and he returned from Rome with the title you know. Five hundred pounds to Prince Tortoni, and a small gratification to a distinguished personage living not a hundred miles from the Vatican, and his Countship was an accomplished fact. That is his happiness, to be seen sitting in the window of our club for two hours every afternoon during the season. You hardly ever see him speak to anybody except his proposer and seconder—who, they say, from being in pretty stiff with him, didn't dare refuse putting him up, or to give a gentle hint to a couple of trusty retainers to pill him. He has to put up with brutal remarks and open insults; but we can't drive him out—he is perfectly pachydermatous. He came up to Puthamdown the other day—he still retains a good deal of his native lisp—

"Thought to have theen your lorthip at Forbannock the other day."

"No, Count, not likely to see me when you're there."

"Moth ecthrordinary thing—the whole time I woth there, hoth Grathe never had a bit of fith put on the table."

"I suppose you ate it all in the kitchen, Ikey," said Charley Chaffers.

And all this he will submit to, that he may go and swagger it, at some pothouse to which he belongs, about "my Club, our Duke," and so on.

Do you see that man, about forty, incomparably dressed, who is talking with great deference to Claymore, the rich Midland squire? That is Owen Glendower—oh, of course descended in a direct line—the banker, who is perfectly ashamed of the shop, and who would barter his till against a peerage. His early struggles were devoted to reach the inner circle of the Upper Ten, and he has succeeded—how, I don't know, for he is a consummate ass; and, beyond his good looks and big saucer eyes, doesn't possess a single merit. I was once staying at his house in Wales—a gimcrack, affair, all weathercocks and pinnacles—and on one rainy morning, after breakfast, he asked me what I should like to do. It is I who ought to ask to be provided with the amusement I affect for that particular day. I hate its being arranged for me that I am to go hunting when I want to shoot, or go shooting when I want to fish. And therefore I answered, with decision—

"I am going to the with a book, where I shall remain till lunch. If it rains, I shall go there after lunch till dinner time."

"Oh, but just come upstairs for a moment, and let me show you—"

What, do you think? Why, his jewel case, and studs, and Of course, he is very civil to me, because I keep a large account at his bank, chiefly for the sake of

Probably their money and the state of your balance, old fellow. When Glendower is raised to the peerage, which it is said he is about to be, with the title of Baron Pursey, he will become simply intolerable. Insolent to his inferiors, and, as a novus homo, obsequious to his peers, feigning a humility insufferable in its arrogance, we may well hope that, when White's has opened its portals to him, he will not honour us here any longer."

Observe that little, supercilious, snob, who is twirling the feeble ends of a mangy,  mustache. That is young Penn—Inky Penn, they call him. He is the son of a country attorney, who is agent to the Earl of Propergait. They do say that Mrs. Penn was more intimate with his lordship than nice honour warranted, or than ladies ought to be who love their lords; but people spread such scandalous reports nowadays, which are always more or less eagerly listened to, that to be the author of a new and successful scandal is to be a greater man than the author of 'Tom Jones.' However, be that as it may, Inky shows no signs of aristocratic stock. When you dine on Guard at St. James's, you will have an opportunity of seeing how he is beloved by his I don't think these gentlemen will retain him long amonst them; they object to cads, and have a way of making the regiment too hot for those they think best out of it. Hear him talk:—

"How do, Penn?"

"Oo! oo!" (Pennian for "How do you do?")

"Got a bad cold, I fear. That patrol duty these cold nights must be hard work."

"Oo! oo! oo!"

"Go over to Roach's, and get some lozenges."

Do you mark the and surly brute? Education? Never. If his father had sent him to Eton or Winchester, he would have been dead by this time, unless he had behaved himself very differently. He was sent to the grammar school of Duffington, his native town, where he received that useful commercial education for which it is celebrated. When the Earl announced his intention of getting him a commission in the Guards, he was removed to an expensive private tutor who prepared noblemen and gentlemen for the universities, public schools, army and navy, Royal Academy, Guy's Hospital, and everything else. Here, amongst the  and moderately taught  his  he might have picked up some knowledge of manners and gentlemanly bearing, both of which he so signally lacks. But he preferred the society of Sally, the housemaid—who, it must be confessed, had the most honourable intentions towards him, and whose character was unimpeachable—and that of the young gentlemen's grooms, in whose company he was introduced to the pleasures of ratting,   and  drinking, in the sporting parlour of some Three Pigeons, where he was always faced by one of the right sort—as the slang phrase has it. The couldn't stand him, and the Rev. Rose Dillwater requested his papa to take him away. Then he got his commission, and soon succeeded in insinuating himself into the hatred of everybody. But he is very different at the paternal mansion in Duffington, where, with intolerable insolence and mendacity, he recounts his successes in the fashionable world. He is the favourite partner at whist of a distinguished personage, and a frequent and honoured guest at M H. The attentions paid him by the female members of the aristocracy are the cause of innu-

The present century has been marked by a prodigious increase in wealth-producing power. The utilization of steam and electricity, the introduction of improved processes and labor-saving machinery, the greater subdivision and grander scale of production, the wonderful facilitation of exchanges, have multiplied enormously the effectiveness of labor.

At the beginning of this marvelous era it was natural to expect, and it was expected, that labor-saving inventions would lighten the toil and improve the condition of the laborer; that the enormous increase in the power of producing wealth would make real poverty a thing of the past. Could a man of the last century—a Franklin or a Priestley—have seen, in a vision of the future, the steamship taking the place of the sailing vessel, the railroad train of the wagon, the reaping machine of the scythe, the threshing machine of the flail; could he have heard the throb of the engines that in obedience to human will, and for the satisfaction of human desire, exert a power greater than that of all the men and all the beasts of burden of the earth combined; could he have seen the forest tree transformed into finished lumber—into doors, sashes, blinds, boxes or barrels, with hardly the touch of a human hand; the great workshops where boots and shoes are turned out by the case with less labor than the old-fashioned cobbler could have

Rh Wake, truly or not, (for this is nothing to the purpose,) to agree with Bossuet in its exposition of doctrine. This tract was sent into the world with the approbation of the Suffragan Bishop of Cologne, of the Vicar-general, the Censure of Ghent, the Canons and Divines of Mechlin, the University of Louvain, and the Bishop of Tournay. Father Crasset's answer was printed at Paris, licensed by the Provincial, approved by three fathers of the Jesuits' body appointed to examine it, and authorized by the King. I mention these circumstances to show that this controversy was not conducted in a corner; to which I may add that, according to Crasset, learned men of various nations had also written against the Tract, that the Holy See had condemned the author, and that Spain had prohibited him and his work from its dominions. We have nothing to do with the doctrine of this Tract, good or bad, but let us see what this Crasset's doctrine is on the other hand, thus put forth by the Jesuits in a notorious controversy, and accepted on hearsay by Bossuet, with a studious abstinence from the sight of it after the matter of it had been brought before him.

"Whether a Christian that is devout towards the blessed Virgin can be damned? Answer. The servants of the blessed Virgin have an assurance, morally infallible, that they shall be saved.

"Whether God ever refuses anything to the blessed Virgin? Answer. 1. The Prayers of a Mother so humble and respectful are esteemed a command by a Son so sweet and so obedient. 2. Being truly our Saviour's mother, as well in heaven as she was on earth, she still retains a kind of natural authority over His person, over His goods, and over His omnipotence; so that, as Albertus Magnus says, she can not only entreat Him for the salvation of her servants, but by her motherly authority can command him; and as another expresses it, the power of the Mother and of the Son is all one, she being by her omnipotent Son made herself omnipotent.

"Whether the blessed Virgin has ever fetched any out of hell? Answer. 1. As to purgatory, it is certain that the Virgin has brought several souls from thence, as well as refreshed them whilst they were there. 2. It is certain she has fetched many out of hell: i.e. from a state of damnation before they were dead. 3. The Virgin can, and has fetched men that were dead in mortal sin out of hell, by restoring them to life again, that they might repent..........

"The practice of devotion towards her. 1. To wear her scapulary; which whoso does shall not be damned, but this habit shall be for them a mark of salvation, a safeguard in dangers, and a sign of peace and eternal alliance.

"Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come, but woe to that man by whom the offence Cometh! Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off and cast them from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire. And if thine eye offend thee pluck it out, and cast it from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire."

Bossuet's name has been mentioned in evidence of the really existing connection between the decrees of Trent and the popular opinions and practices in the Roman Church, as regards the matters they treat of. But the labours of that celebrated divine in the cause of his Church introduce us to very varied and extensive illustrations of another remark which has been incidentally made in the course of our discussion.

It was observed that the legitimate meaning of the Tridentine decrees might be fairly ascertained by comparing together those of the Latin Churches, where the system was allowed to operate freely, and those in which the presence of Protestantism acted as a check upon it. This has been remarkably exemplified in the history of the controversy during the last one hundred and fifty years, that is, since the time of Bossuet, who seems to have been nearly the first who put on the Tridentine decrees a meaning more consonant with Primitive Christianity, distinguishing between the doctrines of the Church, and of the Schools. This new interpretation has been widely adopted by the Romanists, and, as far as our own islands are concerned, may be considered to be the received version of their creed; and one should rejoice in any appearance of amelioration in their system, were not the pre-

Rh sent state of Italy and Spain, where no check exists, an evidence what that system still is, and what, in course of time, it would, in all probability, be among ourselves, did an universal reception of it put an end to the restraint which controversy at present imposes on them.

Bossuet's Exposition, which contains the modified doctrine above spoken of, was looked at with great suspicion at Rome, on its first appearance, and was with difficulty acknowledged by the Pope. It is said to have been written originally with the purpose of satisfying Marshal Turenne, who became, in consequence, a convert to Romanism. It was circulated in manuscript several years, and was considered to be of so liberal a complexion, according to the doctrine of that day, as to scandalize persons of his own communion, and to lead Protestants to doubt whether the author dare ever own it. In the year 1671, it was, with considerable alterations, committed to the Press with the formal approbation of the Archbishop of Rheims and nine other Bishops, but on objections being urged against it by the Sorbonne the press was stopped, and not till after various alterations was it resumed, with the suppression of the copies which had already been struck off. It is affirmed by Wake without contradiction (I believe) from his opponents, that even with these corrections it was of so novel an appearance to the Romanists of that day, that an answer from one of Bossuet's own communion was written to it, before the Protestants began to move, though the publication was suppressed. The Roman See at last accorded its approbation, but not before the conversions which it effected had recommended it to its favour.

It may be instructive to specify some instances of this change of doctrine, or of interpretation of doctrine, (if it must so be called,) which Bossuet is accused of introducing.

1. In the private impression of his Exposition, as the suppressed portion of the edition may be called, Bossuet says,

Song Be Delicate

LET your song be delicate.
 * The skies declare

No war—the eyes of lovers
 * Wake everywhere.

Let your voice be delicate.
 * How faint a thing

Is Love, little Love crying
 * Under the Spring.

Let your song be delicate.
 * The flowers can hear:

Too well they know the tremble,
 * Of the hollow year.

Let your voice be delicate.
 * The bees are home:

All their day's love is sunken
 * Safe in the comb.

Let your song be delicate.
 * Sing no loud hymn:

Death is abroad … oh, the black season!
 * The deep—the dim!

In the second or published edition, the words printed in italics were omitted, the first clause altogether, and the second with the substitution of "out of disrespect or error."

2. Again, in the private impression he had said,

He raised his doctrine in the second as follows;

In giving these instances, I am far from insinuating that there is any unfairness in such alterations. Earnestly desiring the conversion of Protestants, Bossuet did but attempt to place the doctrines of his Church in the light most acceptable to them. But they seem to show thus much: first that he was engaged in a novel experiment, which circumstances rendered necessary, and was trying how far he might safely go; secondly that he did not carry with him the body of the Gallican divines. In other words, we have no security that this new form of Romanism is more stable than one of the many forms of Protestantism which rise and fall around us in our own country, which are matters of opinion, and depend upon individuals.

3. But again, after all the care bestowed on his work, Bossuet says in his exposition as ultimately published:

To this his Vindicator adds.

Now with these passages contrast the words of Bellarmine,

Rh who, if any one, might be supposed a trustworthy interpreter of the Roman doctrine.

Again, in the Pontifical we are instructed that to the wood of the Cross "divine worship (latria) is due;" and that saving virtues for soul and body proceed from it; which surely agrees with the doctrine of Bellarmine as contained in the above extract, not with that of Bossuet.

4. The Vindicator of Bossuet speaks of the Mass to the following effect:

But the Tridentine Fathers say in their Canons that,

And Bellarmine says,

And then he proceeds to show how this condition of the notion of a sacrifice is variously fulfilled in the Mass.

Leaving Bossuet, let us now turn to the history of the controversy in our own country, whether in former or recent times; and here I avail myself of an article of a late lamented Prelate of our Church, in a periodical work ten years since. As to the particular instances adduced, it must be recollected that they are not dwelt on as a sufficient evidence by themselves of that differ-

 in grace. Either may be proved with a certain degree of consistency, but Russian theology never takes the trouble to analyze thought and to go consistently from deduction to deduction. It says: You say it is grace, then we will generalize it and say: it is both works and grace, and it does not in the least trouble itself about the fact that one excludes the other. It strings out a few unintelligible sentences, quotes the fathers of the church, and comes to a conclusion, imagining that the question is solved. Proof from Scripture.

“4. The doctrine about the unconditional predestination of God is contrary to common sense, Common sense is convinced that God is just and that, consequently, he cannot without any cause preordain some to eternal happiness, and others to eternal damnation. It is convinced that God is infinitely good and, consequently, can not without any cause condemn any one to eternal perdition. It is convinced that God is infinitely all-wise and, consequently, cannot give man freedom and yet embarrass it by his unconditional predetermination and take away the whole moral value of its actions.” (p. 286.)

This discussion directly ignores everything which has been said against it in the previous articles. And with this obvious contradiction the whole argument is closed.

Art. 193 still more mixes up the matter. Here there is a contradiction in every word: “Though God worketh in us to do of his good pleasure (Phil. ii. 14), and we are not able without his grace to undertake anything, nor accomplish anything truly good: still that divine power, working in us and through us, in no way embarrasses our freedom and does not draw it invincibly to the good.” (p. 286.)

What does that mean? Translating the sentence into intelligible language, it turns out that grace does not embarrass our freedom, but we can do nothing good without it. Where is the freedom? According to this defi-

Orthodox Church!

With this word I no longer can connect any other conception than that of a few hirsute men, extremely self-confident, deluded, and ignorant, in silk and velvet, with diamond panagias, called bishops and metropolitans, and thousands of other hirsute men, who are in a state of the grossest, most servile servility to those dozens of men, who, under the guise of performing certain sacraments, are busy cheating and fleecing the people.

How can I believe in this church, which to man’s profoundest questions about his soul answers with petty deceptions and insipidities, and affirms that no one must dare to answer these questions in any other way, and that in everything which is most precious in my life I should not be guided by anything but what it points out to me? I may choose the colour of my pantaloons, I may choose my wife according to my liking, but in everything else—precisely that in which I feel myself to be a man—I must be guided by them, those idle, cheating, and ignorant people.

In my life, in the holiness of my soul, I have for a guide and pastor the parish priest, a dull, illiterate lad who has been let out of the seminary, or a hard-drinking old man whose only care it is to take in as many eggs

On the other hand consider the following passage in the controversy between Jewell and Harding. Jewell accused the Roman Church with teaching that the blessed Virgin could command her Son. Harding replies as follows,
