I found my sweet waiting for me, and a more affectionate little darling than she was that time no one ever saw. I think we must have spooued and held hands for hour or so, and then she said to me : “ ‘Bill, what ship do you belong to C” “Somehow that question sent a shiver long my backbone, because it made me emember all about the licking the two nets had got the night before,and I was 11 w in Califat, where the runners and ev rybody stand together. However, I In de bold to lie about it promptly and sa - “’,At that the other runner has a mind to help'\ his mate, but. he sees me coming with a. bi Iron belaying pin in hand. That was enoligh for hlm, and away he ran aft, but that, belaying pin caught. him fair in the back nd howled him over across the main hatch as meat; as a. pin m a howling alley. “ ‘And do you really and truly love me Bill ‘3’ she said, so that I couldn’t help say- ing did, and I did, too. “ ‘ I knew it, Bill.’ she says, ‘ and you’ll do hat 1 want you to. You’re the bulliest sail r that comes into this port and you can lick anything. Last night my brother, wha ’5 a runner for Spud Murphy, and mot er one was down on the Crwsus look- ing f r a. couple of sailors to go on a. deep- sea. v yage, with two months’ advance. They got one man and the promise of an- other when as they were leaving her the mate mi two more jumped on them and beat 12 em shameful, and then that mate set his b g dog on my brother, and it bit a. whole mouthful out of his leg. Oh, it was sham ful. He can’t walk a. step. But the other me can, and he‘ll be here in half an hour. He’ll go down to the Urmsus with you a. d pick a. fight with the mate, and I a “With that the son who was with me ships around the foreman and up behind thiem and welbs the sailor over the head.

The otherâ€"that was my manâ€"had both eyes swelled shut and his lips both split in front, while he walked with a terrible limp in the left leg where the dog had been clawing him. “You see, I was mate of the bark Croesus. carrying deals from St. John to Greenock. I made the acquaintance of this lassie the first time in port, and was clean gone daft, I may say, over her ; and for that matter she had a. soft spot in her heart for me, as I have reason to believe. And so every night I used to take leave and go ashore for two or three hours, and maybe more. to see her, till one night the Captain, who had been ashore to see his sweetheart, happened to come on board before I did and found no one on deck but the watchman, and no one in the cabin at all. So, being a. fair- minded man, as well as one who wanted to keep the ship in order, he agreed to stay on board one night and me the next, turn about, only 1 was to have the first night on board, because he had a. very particular engagement with his sweetheart the next night.

I’ve been in every port on the western ocean and a. good many on other oceans, but the rosiest cheeks and the bluest eyes and the sweetest dispositions that ever I fell foul of are right there on the banks of the Bay of Fundy. It gives me the queers every time I think of that townâ€"two queers, I may say, for I have to catch my breath when I think of the sweetheart I had there up in Califnt, on the hill toward the bay, and then I have to catch it again and catch hard when I think of how I lost her. "They were willing enough to leave by that time, for they had one of our best men rall coaxed up to go, and up they came. one hf them carrying the sailor’s bag, while Jack himself had his arms full of dunnage, and away the three went along the deck fioward the rail. “ ‘ There’s two runners in the forecastle trying to steal the crew,’ he said.

The newspapers and the politicians of the United States that so often refer to Great Britain in spiteful and hostile lsnguage,and those American protectionists who would level a. high taritf particularly at British gnods, ought to consider the facts present- ed in the leading article of the New York Journal of Commerce and Commercial Bul- letin on Thursday last. These facts are, first, that one-half of the total exports of the United States go to Great Britain ; second, that the United States does not take from Great Britain more than one fourth to one-third of as much merchandise as it sends to her ; third,tha.t the sentiment towards Great Britain that finds commonest expression in the United States is one of extreme unfriendliness. Of last year's total exports from the United States, amounting to $892,143,547, $431,063,687 went directly to British ports, and besides this a. consid- erable amount went there indirectly through Canada. In the last six years Britain took above to misrepresent her. Yet they owe her for no small part of their bread and butter. In the face of all this antagonism and abuse, the Mother Country has treated the United States with the utmost magnanimity. With a tenth part of such grounds of provocation any other European power would have retaliated. There was a time when the United States had almost a monopoly in the production of surplus food-stuns. Then Britain had to buy her wheat and flour from the States if she would get them at the lowest price. It is otherwise now. If Britain did not, take a single cargo of United States wheat, she could get all she wants at the lowest price ruling in the world's markets. Russia, Austria, India, Argentine, Chili, and Canada could supply all her wants. The United States crop would still be on the market to keep prices at their level, but the sale of it would be scattered. The feeling that it would seem most reasonable and most natural for the United States to entertain to“ ards so great i a customer is that of the warmest friend‘ ship. Such a feeling would seem to be prompted by business considerations, were there no blood or language in the question. worth of United States goods, which was more than all the other nations together took. Also, British capitalists have sup- plied the greater part of the money for the development of industry in the United States. To no other country in the world is the United States so much beholden as to Great Britain, and no other country in the World is so much beholden to her. Britain has been treated most shabbin in return. If she has a. difference upon any question with another power, the United States is ready to make her out in the wrong. Some time ago, when an amiable but absurd proposal for the union of the naval power of Britain and the States was broached by a visionary Englishman. the New York Sun, with equal folly, declared that Britain must be destroyed. Its oft- vented malignity to Britain, like that of the politicians who profess Anglophobia, is addressed to the very lowest elements of the populace, whom it is intended to gratify. But it is not always to tickle the rabble this envy and malice is shown towards the greatest customer of the United States. Henry Cabot Lodge might be supposed to be above that small business, yet he wanted the tarifl to be charged with special and prohibitory duties against British merchan- dise to punish her for rejecting proposals for bimetallism. In regard to the enforce- ment of the Behring Sea regulations, in connection with the Bruilian war, the troubles at Bluefields, at Samoa, at Hawaii and in those between China and Japan, the enemies of Britain in the United States “Oh, he didn’t say you did sing.
