It is alleged and demonstrated, that the. present. Government has gone back on its record in every conceivable manner ; that they have been wastel'ul, corrupt, anl un- l provrdent. \Vastet'ul, for instance in 1 incurring an utterly useless expenditure at the Fort Francis Lock, of some three or four hundred thousand dollars, a waste which Can never be used, unless twenty millions more is expended in completing the system, a system which if completed, would be superseded by the Pacific Railway before it could be fini~hed. “Tasteful in making a large expenditure on the eastern section ol’ the Pacific Railway, before the route was even surreyed, having then to abandon it as impracticable, and pay a large sum to the contractorâ€"this is their own story. The charge rgainst them is that they were guilty of more than ignorance and incapacity in this respect ; that in fact, the money paid to Foster was the price of his dcsertion of his party. Corrupt, because they allowed a supporter to erect a frame work of culled lumber intrinsically worthless, on a piece of land they were about to take for railway purposes; and ti on. in de- fiance of the law, paid him upwards of fire thousand collars for the thing they cannot sell for five hundred. Corrupt, bCCause they openly trafiicked with the very Speaker of the House, allowing him in open defiance of the law, to receive large sums as a contractor with the Government for years, while actually presiding: over the debates in Parliament. Corrupt, because they have so dealt with the super-mutilation fund as to com pletely defeat and override its purpose, making it, in fact, an engine for no- potism, favoritism, and robbery ; the cause of greatly in'creasing instead of lG‘SCIIlHK the expense of our administra- tion. lmprovident, because with a shrinking and lessening of our resources, they have largely added to our expendiâ€" ture, instead ot'triinming and reducing it to suit our altered circumstances, thereby entailing a severe depression on the country. Improvident, if not. cor rupt, fer purchasing twenty‘five hun dred thousand dollars worth of rails on a falling market, and long before they were Wanted, thereby increasing un- neceSszu-ily the burdens of the people. Now, these, and cognate matters, are the real questions at issue before the people, and on those issues the Government and their supporters must stand or fall. “lily then is their discussion openly shirde ? is it that our cotcmporaries and the Grit ()rators think a discreet si- lence the wisest policy 7 Perhaps they think these nasty questions have been over much aired already ; but they must not think the people are fools, or entirely careless of these things. They are well aware that our expenditure has been in- creased, that our taxation has also been increased, and that our prosperity has diminished ; and they are rapidly draw- inc~ into a settled conviction that. these results are, in a great measure. owing,r to the incapacity and (lishontsty of our present rulers. Yet we had Messrs. Metcalfand Dyinond at Stoutfrillo the other day, not discussing these vital questions intollieilxly indeed, but broadly asserting that the whole action of the Government. has been correct and proper.

HELEN QUATERMAINEf Or, for Conscience Sake. There was nothing to shock or distress his daughter in those last. hours of' a well-spent life. He blessed her for her devoted afi'eetion, and it was with his hand clasped in hers that he passed away Yet Helen broke down after his interment, and for some weeks was prostrated with low fever, brought, on by the fatigue and anxiety she had an der gone. For scveral days she was delirious, yet aware, through it all, of the bustle of an arrival, and of some one moving about her bed witha lighter step and softer hands than those of her ordinary attendant. It. was to ascer- tain who this could be that in the first moments of actual consciousness she raised her head and looked around, to meet the gentle eyes of Mabel Kayne. Her friends in England had not forget ten her, and one ol‘them at all events had hastened to her side as soon as the news reached them that she was alone. \Vhen Helen was well enough to lake the warm interests of old in the affairs of others, cheerful Mrslluyne had plenty In H'll. Iler >i.~ter had been in great trouble. having lost one of her beautiful children through the negligence of the nurse. in \rlmsu nmnuuement she haul so implicitly confided. The rr-prnaehes mtered by Mr. Verismn in the first, transports of his grief, and her own re- lllOI‘thlll sense ofneglrcted responsibili- ties, struck home to her naturally warm heart. Tu her credit be It said thnl the impression was a lasting one; her Friv-lnus pur~uits were now gradually lzn-l asrde. to enable her to devote her- self to her dunmslie duties; and, with» nut. losin;_r her viVuCity. she was dvvvlop- ing into an excellent wife and mulher. Mrs. Irby’s venture was pmspering. The number of her pupils had rapidly increased ; and as her excellent, manage ment and attention to their health of body as well as their studies beanie more. widely iumwn, mothers Were only too glad to place their children under her care. lt‘la, the bright, energetic lda, iv" fused spirit into the melmge, and even Miss Bent had improved wenderl'ully <ince she had been raised to the pmt of Mrs. Irhy's chief adviser and assistant. 'l‘hen Mr. Raynfl had much to l'uluiz' concernng nu‘ own work, which she was merely relinquishing for a time in order to nurse Helen. She could more easily do this, because the band of help ers had increased, and she no l ‘nger labored in the midst of' her crowded dis- trict comparatively unaided. \thn- Helen was Well enough to travel she returned to England with Mrs. Kayne, intending to take up her abode for a time with the lrbys. By Colonel Quutcrnmine’s will she was >0 amply provided for that the executors he had uppninted were hunting her 10 enter society, in which. as a cnmpam tivcly wealthy heiress, she would have been eagerly welcomed. But plvnding her mourning: as an excuse for declining all invitations, she adhered to her original plan. \Vhen she could over- come the depressing sense of lonelinvs>~ that still clung: to her, she wruhlendenr- vnr to find some way of spending a busy, useful life. It would have sounded ungrateful to object to anything: proposed by such f_’(’]l61‘008 and disinterested friends as the Haynes had pr0ved themselves, and Helen cheerfully consented to the arrangement. ” I cannot let you go to Mrs. Trby, till I have fulfilled my husband‘s injunc- tions.” said Mrs. Buyne, when they were on their homeward route. “ He is so anxious to see his old favorite, that I have promised for you that. your first few days in England shall be spent un- der our roof,” “ I mink I mentioned to you (but we have given up our cottage at. Twickcn- ham,” Mrs. {awe Said presently. “ My husband has received a bequest, “hich enables him to gratify a long- (elmi-islied desire to turn gentleman- farmer." “ Hnw will Illat agree with his prac- tice as a lawyer? does he propose to re- linquish the latter?" ‘l' Nob entirely; but he will no longer take so active a share in the businers of ille firm with which he is connected. It is partly a question 01" lwaltl1,u.~; well as inclination,” Mrs Ruyne explained. CHAPTER IN ENGLAND AGAIN. CHAPTER LII. AN ARRIVAL. LLâ€"CONTINUED. Mrs. Rayne smilineg asked if it were worth while looking so far ahead, but obtained no reply, for Helen had fallen intoa reverie, from which she roused herself to say, “ 1 shall be able to visit Milly’s grave and the church on the moor. Do .9 Mr. Kayne ever see Mr. Elsely ?” “ Not. very often, he is always busy; but we reckon him as one of our most esteemed friends, and thoroughly enjoy his socicly when he does COIHC to us.” A pleasant surprise awulted Helen at the Lodge She had scarcely shaken hands with her host when a pair of lov in: hands were clasped around her. and she found herself in the embrace of Ida Irby. It was so long since this young girl had been indulged with a holiday, that her molher insislcu on her accept- ing an invitation kindly sent by the Haynes, that she would come to them, and be amongst, the first to welcome her cousin back to England. 81:0 was too young: to have felt, very deeply tho “hanged circumstnnws of hvr parents; and when she had (lashed away the tears that streamed down her my checks as she shmd with Helen by the grave of her sismr. she could talk hopefully cf the work and prospects: of the present. “ Papa is less fl'etful and more easilv amuwd,” she confided to her sympathising companion, “ and l am sure Illumllla looks over so much happier than she used to do. It's tn‘ ing sometimes to touch the same thing over and over again, especially to those children who have no car for music, and keep strum, strum, strumming on the wrong: notes. till I could shake them.
