One can almost convince himself that the sinking sun has paused and become forever motion- less, like the droopieg sails that reflect it ; as if the waning hours had been touched with immoitalitv and would change no more. Oia the day of which I Write, we found it too warm for exer- tion, but nothing ever made it too warm for the multitudinous children in the neighboring cottage to stray forth by land or sea, and we were, not surprised to see half a dozen little Lailes push in their leaky boat from the crumb wharf that lay behind their small,bt unpainted abode. 'They paddled a with much shrill -voiced shouting, w the hazy afternoon glow fell their bare, curlylieads, a's they ro -across to th.e lighthouse. It wa common sight, though always a pre one, and we lazily .watched them intervals, that day, till they had pas the breakwater and steered for a p where the retests of a Sunken ve emerged from the waves, furnishing attractive place where children mi linger.'

At last we saw the usual line ofsouthwest wind drawing in from the mouth of the harbor; a dozen coasting ,vessels came up before it and droppedanchor oppo- site our door. Last of all, we saw two snow-white schooner yachts sailing in, wing -and -wing, with the fog bank fol- lowing close behind them their white expanse relieved against it e background of solemn grey.
