HGW BOUGALL Gill} ills Wth AN INTERES'I'ING LOVE STORY. DOUGALL’S early boyhood was spent roaming over the hills and alloys of Nova. b‘cotia, to. which country his father emigrated from Scotland early in the present century. His love for adventure soon began to be manifest, and was partially excite'l by the mountainous and majestic scenery with which his native land abounds, together with frequent ex- cursions by soa‘and land. Tlll. the age of twenty live he was content with traversing the mountains, frills, and valleys of his own country, and tile Waters which more immediately surrounded it. About this time, however, his mind bcccuno occupied with thoughts about distant coun. tries, and most extravagant were the fancies of his imagination. Finally he concluded to sock adventure and fortune in tho far-famed North W'cst. Accordingly ho bade father, mother, brothers, sisters and home, with all their hallowed associations, a‘l‘ong’+pci'ltttiis a last adicu! He took passage for Quebec, and thence to Toronto. On reaching the lust mentioned city, he rccollectcd hear- ing his father speak of his ‘ brother Allen,’ who he said livcd some fcw miles north of Toronto. Dougall was unwilling to loose so good an op- portunity of Visiting an uncle of whom he had only heard; so be resolved to sac him before proceed- ing further on his North-Wcst journey. '-~lt now becomes necessary to give a short account of the family Dou- gall Was going to visit ’ttH‘ the first time. Allen M is a farmer in easy circumstances, living in a cen- tral part of the fine county onork.’ He is middle agod,small in structure butl‘tnighty bl” it] l-ULllng,’ and can. resent an injury with a vengeance seldom to be met with. Unfortu- ttatelyuf'or himself, he does nut belong to the honorable and Venerable class 'ofmen Who wear thin their trouser’s knees in devotion to Him who is the author of our being. Nevertheless, he has a" benevolent heart and keeps a‘hospitablc house. Mrs. M unlike her husband. is a giantess in slie, and would make a wife more suitable for a Goliath than the cock- robin, who is hrrr lord paramount: She possesses any amount of binge eloquence, and discourses familiarly on politics and general topics, and is a great admirer of Thos. D’Arcy McGee. She is, however,» destitute .of that refitted modest sentiment of (feeling which excl-ts. and adorns fe- male character, and which cannot be compensated by any other quality, no matter how valuable. Like too many of the present age, she neâ€" glects the heart for the improve- ment of the head, and thus works outlier own ruin, perhaps tempor- ally as well as spiritually. She is bold, reso‘ute and passionate; yct ALEX. sour r, Proprietor. Vol. “I.

In the meantime Dougnll went on board the Northern train, and such found himself at Richmond Hill, where he hired a~ conveyance to take him to the place ofhis destination. it was in 1859, in one of these beau- tiful and lovcly evenings in June, when the earth is richly cladin vor- durc, and the forests and orchards are clothed with foliage, that Don gall appeared before his uncle’s door. The sun was fast approaching his evening declination, and gently rc- flccting his rays on the surrounding objects; nature ncvcr appca's it} greatct‘advantuge in Cnnudathan on a clear and cloudlcss evening in June, just before the going down of the sun.

His uncle's fannly and form now shared more of his thoughts and dreams titan all the gold in Frazer river country. He began to make himself generally useful aboutthe farm. His .uncle thought it unreasonable that ,he should serve him for limiting. and requested him to name his wages. Unlike old Jacob, Dougall preferred so much in cash, per month.to the in-’ ,crcase of ‘ black sheep and speckled 'cattlc.’ It soon, however, became ,apparcnt that his cousins hadmoro lattraction for Dougall than his uncle’s money.

After ,a‘ faithful inquiry they concluded ,upon the authority of the best di- Vines,- that those‘prejudiccs are ill- =found‘ed, and that such unions are I for riches.

Dougall made no reply, and pro- coodcd. With his Work. ln this man- ner nattcrs stood for two or three months. Though closely watched, yet the lchrs managed to steal an occasional hour and enjoy each others embraces. Old Allcu, however, was not un- suspecting as. to what was going on ; he rcs‘olvcd to gnvc Dougall his ticket of leave, and accordingly informed him that his services were no longer required ; at the same tune he inti- maicd that he Would be happy meet: him 0t:casi0ually.

Poor Sophina, on hearing of her 5’ ti Mother’s conduct, was in deep sor- lrow ;- great was the anguish of lici‘ soul, and profusi: Were her tears.

This condolcd her, and served in. a measure to dismal her fours and numerous misgivings. In order that'he might the more frequently see the object'of his lot/e, Deugall, upon leaVlng his uncle’s, took‘u’p his abode with a neur‘n‘c‘i'ghé her. He kcptuhis promise, and dur- ing two or three months made seve- t‘ul visits, all‘i'thc while nothing ime port'unt transpirlng.
