-BIIE SEA-MAIDEN.
Ttiero was n lily and rose. sea-tnaMcn
In marvellous depths of lar-away seas,
Whose eyes were blue, and wlioso head was
Inilon
With luminous curls Ilka tbe lioncy of
bees.
Half hidden by corals and swaying rushes
And vines of tho ocean, she sat arrayed
In n tremulous veil nfdelicato blushes
And robes of quivering light aud shade.
The sun-fish came lo worst Ip her graces,
Tho dog-fish lingered and marvelled be
side, And sho gayly smiled in their whimsical
feces,
And sang them songs till Ihey laughed or
cried,
A poet of earth looked down upon her,
And loved, and beckoned, and told his
love j
But her soul was coy with a eca-maiden's
honor,
And she would not go to the world above.
So there he stayed by the crystalllno water;
He leaned and gazed with heart on fire:
And died at last for the ocean's daughter
Died of sorrow nnd long desire.
And still she si' In the pence ofoecan
Tho peaco of tho mouth of ocean-caves
A damsel without an earthly emotion,
Who cares not for men, their loves, nor
their paves.
Thus, deep In the calms of woman's life,
ooyers
Herself some maiden on aureate sands
Of duly and innocence, far from lovers,
From beatings of heart and rcachings ol
hands.

FERGUS MAC1L1LSH;
on,
Tho Last Elm of the Avenue.
Ha was a tnll, handsome fellow, with
dark comnlcxinn aud curiously light,
eoger pyes; by name I discovered, Cap
tain Augus JIcL'.'ih, of the Thirty
fourth (Iloyal Croinnrly) Highlanders
(Here I timy iutrodnco msstlf to my
readers, Lieutenant Jones, Iloyal North
Willis Militia.) Captain MncLeish was
r.itlier stiff and high nnd mighty at fltbt,
thought very much the Highland
chieftain. "Caolchairn," or some such
pretty name, was, I found, his correct
designation. Still, I lit hiru see thai I
considered ft Jones of I'rybullych the
equal ofneyman iu her majesty's ser
vice, nnd we gradually warmed into
sociihllity over the landlady',! blazing
fire, and such refreshments as the Green
Lion afforded.
The landlady's prediction was verified
in less than the time mentioned. The
lstorm blew over, the clouds patted, and
a Clear white moon shono ont,
II ilf an hour's quick walking brought
ns to the top of the hill, under which Uy
the little town of Clinqharon. Its red
roofs looked pretty nnd pioluresqne in
the moonlight beyoud, and to westward
thescanndthe marshes stretched away
ray nnd mysterious; below us a row of
light id windows showed where the bar
racks stood.
'That's n welcome sight,'' said Mao
Laisli.
'Were you ever here before?'' I asked
"Never. I only heard of the place last
week ah!" he stopped short.
I looked ronnd ii amazement. He
was standing upright nnd rigid, his eyes
fixed on so-ne point in the road before
ns, his finger extended.
"Why, what's the matter?" I asked,
looking down the road -white nnd lone
ly and seeing only n milo-stpue stand
ing distinctly from tbe dark hedge.
"Tberel" His eyes dilattd with a fixed
stnro of horror, his breath came short
and quick, and at last, with a sharp cry,
he swayed forward and fell insensible on
mo path, i thought he tried to say
something, but failed to understand b;m.
Tuo soldiers had haltvd, nnJ two ci.nie
running up vociteratiog In some un
known tongue They knelt beside him
and rninod hira nil stark uud white, in
the moonshine. I gave u few directions,
tu which they vouchsafed not the small
ost utteutionjhiithomehow they contrived
to support him between them, aud we
proceeded to the barracks; no great dis
tance fortnnately.
I qzeMionod tho sergeant, who had
looked on meanwhile with undUturhed
composure. He declined to commit him
self to any opinion whatever. The prl
vates were "Caolchairn's" own people,
poor ignorant Highland Lodies. who could
hardly peak English. And hero Ser
geaut TuUuch'H commauication c.uue to
au abrupt stop, r.ud I could only extract
in addition, that tbe Highlanders knew
best what to do with their chief, and that
"he'll bs i' rlcht in the morn."
So he. was. Ho appeared on narad
right enough. I found that be and I were
iuthot-ame section; alo that of nil the
sixty offieirs comosiug the 'coure,' he
was tht only oue with whom I had the
.lightest acquaintance. He was in the
sumo position, I fancy so ne fraternized
to a certain extent walked over to Uoals-
town together the popular amusiraeut
ui the period, and worked nt tho red book
in company. He wn an odd young fel
low, at slate-lily lep-lUut ns n Spnuisb
Don ono moment, nnd the next loyishh
rxpan.ive uud couiuiunlc.illvo. I think
he was re.illy desper.tltly shy the result
of Lome-breeding. He gave mo a descrip
tion of his Highland home oue d.iy. with
his mountaiu aud moor, loch nnd forest.
where the MacbL-isbes lived in feudal
state,naugbt appertaining to the true dig'
nily of ureal Highland chieftain b ing
licking, from the pipers to the deadly-
feud. The MacLeiabes of Tncboran had
killed, burned, betrayed, massacred aud
generally made themselves mutually un
pleasant from time immemorial. The
two branches of this amiable family
sprang from twin brothers, and, accord-
log tn tradition, were to carry on tin
Harne bloodthirsty relations till they b.
eaie .imnl aueously extinct.

If
"And may I ask how you nnd the repre
sentatives of the other litn conduct your
selves when yon happen to meet iu soci
ety uow-a-dnyt?" I inqnircd. JIacLeish
laughed.
"Wo don't meet. Tncboran was sold
generations ago, and the MacLcisli of
that date died abroad. Wo have often
tried to truce out Lis descendants, but
with only partial success. Perhaps tt is
juitns well, ' he continued nltb an em
btrrassed laugh, "for they say that
though we don't slay nnd plunder now
a-days the enne ii on ns yet. Vhen
one of each lino bhall meet, theu follows
calamity.
I looked ns profoundly impressed as he
could eUsire.
"Ten ysais ago n clergyman In the
South chnpUin to a licspltnl wrote lo
ray father to say his cousin, Fergus llac
Leish, lay dying mortally wounded iu
some discreditable brawl. Sly father,
good man, started nt once. Ho was in
time to see tbe tlying man nnd to proin
iso to befriend his only son a boy about
fourteen. Fergus M.icLeish died with
hie Land clasped in my father's. It was
their first aud last meeting."
"We-1.1 No harm came of it, I sup
pose.
'Sly father never saw his homo again.
lie was killed in the great railway acci
dent on tho Great Northern."
What became of the boy?" I asked,
presently.
Young Fergus? He was an utter good-
for-nothing. Sly mother gave the chap
lain carte-bianche, nnd he did his utmost
lo reclaim him. It was no use. He was
in nnd out of prison half a dozen times,
nnd nt last we shipped him off to the col
oniesbut I'm almost sure I met him
last year at tho Derby."
"How did you know him?"
"By his likeness to-myself. It's curi
ously strong. Also by nuother mark a
cut on one eyelid that giyes him a most
sinister look. The chaplain mentioned
it to me."
"Did anything happen?'" I could not
resist asking. JIacLeish's face grew dark.
"Don't ask me enough to ruin my life,
and make it little worth having from
henceforward. Hullo! it's seven o'clock
Do you dine at mess to-night?" and he
left me to dress. Next day, instead of
our usual secluded seat ou the shingle,
by a deserted Slartello tower, I suggested
that wo should take our books to the
parade, studying in pnblic being a Clinq
haven fashion.
Where's the Parade? I've never seen
it yet," he remarked. I marched him
eastward forthwith. It was half-past
twelve on a bright autumn morning, the
sun was shining, the sea dancing, bevies
of pretty children rollicking on the
shingle, and three of tbe prettiest girls in
Clincjbaven taking a brisk turn after
bathing. The prettiest bowed to me, aud
looked ns if we might come and talk to
her if we liked; but all that'SIacLeish
saiduas; "It was a bad place for work
ing, and that he wanted to go to town to
buy somo red ink."
'This way," I said. "You don't mean
to say you've not been down the Lady's
avenue? '
We turned through a gate into a cool
sbado of some pollard elms that mado a
bowery walk across some low lying mead
ows to tho town. "Somo dead and gone
country lady bless her considerate soul
planted this" grove and '.equeatbed it
to the town. Its tbe prettiest thing in
Clinflhavou,"
"Tho town doesn't seem to appreciate
it," taid SlacLeish. "It has been let go
to tho had. These trees want thinning,
and some young ones planted in those
gaps."
"The Slayor and corporation are awak
ing to a sense of their duties, I see," I
said presently. "They are actually
breaking up tbe ground aud getting fresh
earth in, I snppote it's twenty years
since it was last done nnd it will be
twenty more beforo it is done ng -in.
SlacLeish did not answer; he seized
my arm suddenly aud pointed, with out
stretched finger, to the last elm of tbe
avenue.
"There!" ho exclaimed; "he is there
again."
I saw nothing but two wheelbarrows.n
plank nnl two spades sticking upright
the newly broken earth.
' Hold up!" I said. "Don't faint here,
for heaven's Bake!" and I shook him
roughly. He looked nt me vacantly,aud
I hurried him ou. Presently he pissed
his baud across bis eyes and drew a long
breath.
"Sly grave or his!" be muttered,
He said no more till we reached the
barracks, when be turned to me, quite
calmly and collectedly: "Lnngh at me if
you will it can do no harm. I have
s -en him agi.ln. .The third time will re

upon me.

I could hardly believe my eyes.
"Why, not?" slid Sir. SlaoLeish tn me
that night. "I've been very ungracious
to your kind friends. Let me off t'io

all tb evening. Next Friday, is it?
Well, I hope they won't make a late af

"Why, you are as bejewelled as an old

on him with respectful admiration.
"Ynt'd be worth something if yon were

any school-girl nt tho prospect of n dance,
asked mo no end of questions about the
Sliss Pryse-Davises, and mide me sol
emnly promise blm introductions to all
of them.
By the way, I ought to havo some
roouey wltn me, 1 said as we passed
through the barrack gate. "We may
want n cab home."
Nonsense; it,s a splendid night; be
tides, I've plenty." And ho drew out his
purse ns he stood under the lamp. "No,
it's nil gold; what n nuisance!"
I noticed a pair of hungry eyes gleam
ing out of the darkness as he poured the
money back, and saw a ragmuffin Uguro
move slowly off. "Luckily there are two
of us," I thought.
It was u brilliant little dance. Tbe
rooms were prettily aud gaily decorated,
the local confectioner bad surpassed him
self in the supper, and the Pryso-Davies
girls looked as fresh and bright as if they
had cot passed a whole day under a broil
ing sun on the race-course.
"Is this wise?" I naked Miss Winnie.as
we stood in the open French window of
the dining-room, that looked on to the
Parade.
"What the open air? Oh, it never does
me any barm; and the moon is rising so
exqnsitely."
There was a small enclosnre in front of
tho bouse, and over the dwarf wall a
crowd of shabby-looking people were
gazing in at the brilliantly lighted room.
I'll send two of the.men round to or
der them off," she said.
The last that departed looked ronnd nt
me with tbe curious eager eyes I had seen
before.
Sleanwhile the fun was becoming rath
er fast and fnrious. They were getting
up reels. One of the Highland officers
had brought his bagpipes, on which the
miscreant was a distinguished amateur
performer. SlacLeish was oue of tho
noisiest and gayest there. I could bard
ly recognize the proud reserved boy I
knew. Tho Piyse-Davieses were bewitch
ed with him and he with them.
What has come to you, SlacLeish?" I
asked, when I came upon him, sitting in
a dirk corner nloni'.his face buried in bis
hands. He looked np w ith a q ieer, wild
smile.
"I'm not mad, Jones, or -melancholy.
I'm i'ev; that's what it is."
Come home, now, that's a good fel
low; it's past two, and you wanted to be
early."
Not a bit of ill I've avalse with Sliss
Winnie, and half a dozen other dances to
disposo of."
The other men departed by degree,
but SlacLeish stayed on to tbe last, nnd
I with him.
I might Lave 1. ft blm, but soron instinct
detained iv.e. At last we took leave.
Our shortest vtay home vias through
tho Lady's avenue, aud I took it without
reflection. Half way through the grnye
SlacLoish stopped. lie had forgotten
somo nonsensical commission for one of
the girls.
"Ill overtake you," be said. "I must
go back."
I was too provoked with blm to argue,
but walked on, theu est down iu the
gloom of an overturned wheelbarrow and
waited.
Some one passed me n few minntcs
later. He wax iu tha full liolit nf 11, n I
moou, and I recognized the same shabby
figure I had secu tice before a young,
broad-shouldered, touching rough. He
seemed to disappear suddenly behind one
of tbe trees as a footstep approached, ai d
SlaeLcish's voice was heard hinging a
vilse tune, I caught n glimpse nf his
Glengarry aud plaid as he crossed a .

Then nt a turn of tho road.' I came sud

slowly and silently. Fonr of them lore
a hurdle, on which lay something with
