R. MERCER, Opposite Commercial Hotel, Seaford] Helms gathering ehadows around them. The heevena wsre cloudless and serene; over the sombre hills in the east a star throbbed here aud there, but it had to be sought for. There eppeared to be neither lamp nor candle dowu in the village -there watt no need of them on these magical sum- mer nights. "1 do not see that it *ill be scr different," said Mary, pane ntly. "Fred will have to look after Mr; Moredyth. No doubt there will be something of a commotion In ao quiet a place-tthe dogs and keepers and ponies by-the-wey, there will he gillies wanted for the flitting as well 'ati •for the shooting later on-" Kathchen began to enigger a little. " I do believe, Mamie," she said, "that that is all the interest you have in the shoot- ing -it will provide so much empleymentfor your beloved crofters." "Oh, yes, I suppose the place will be a little more brisk and lively," Mary continu- ed, "though thet. won't improve It much in my estimation. I Wonder what made Fred hire that 'wretched little steam.launch." She looked towards the tiny vessel that was lying close to the quay; theamall white funnel and the decks forward were visible in the mystic twilight ; the hull was less clearly defined. "Fancy that thing coming sputtering and crackling into the bay on a beautiful night like this." "It would be very hendy to take a mes- sage out to Heimra Island," said Kathchen, demurely. . Mary glanced at her and laughed. "My dear Kathchen, curiosity is a humiliating weakness, but I will tell you what is in the letter that is lying on the hall table -and that is likely to lie there, unless a wind springs up from some quarter to- morrow. It is an invitation to Mr. Rose to come and dine with ue on Monday next." "Monday ?" said Kathohen, looking eur- prieed. ' "The very day your brother and Mr. Meredith come here?" "For that very reaton," said Mary. "1 wish Mr. Ross to understand why we have never asked him to dine with us -well, of course, he would understand for himself - two girls, living by thetneelves and and koowing him only for so ah -ort a time. But now, you see, I ask him, for the very firet evening that my brother is in the house - and they's all right and correct if there's any Mrs. Grundy in Lochgarra," "The Free Church minister," said Kath- chen, spitefully -for she had never forgiven the good man for his having kept aloof from the fray at Rudalioard. "Mr. Roes has been. very kind to me -in his reeereed and distant way," Mary said, "and I ettould netlike him to think me un- grateful -I" "He cannot do that," raid Kathchen'"if he hasn't been blind to what yOur eyes have said to him again and .again." " What do you mean, Kathchen?" Mary demanded, at once alarmed and resentful. Kathchen retreated quickly; it had been a careless remark. "Oh, I don't mean anything. •I mean your eyes have said, Thank you,' again and again ; and it is but right they should. He his indeed been very thoughtful and kind - and elways so respectful -keeping himself in the background. Oh, you need not be afraid, Mamie • you wou't find rne suggest- ittg that yeti sCouldn't have the moat frank and friendly relations with Mr. Ross. At the same time-" " Yes, at the sarne time ?" "I was wondering," tale Kathchen, with a little hesitation, "how he might get on with your brother and Mr. Meredyth- or, rather, how they might get ou with "My brother and Mr. Meredyth," said Mary, a little proudtil, " will remember that Mr. Ross is my guest; that will be enougb." But Kate Glendenning's uneasy forecast WWI not without some juitification-as Mary was soon to discover. The two visitors from the South arrived on the Monday after- noon, and there were many curioue eyes covertly following the wagonette as it drove through the village. Of the two strangers, the taller, who was Mary Stanley's brother, was a young fellow of about our or five - and -twenty, good-looking rather, of the fair English type, with an aquiline nose,a pretty little yellow -white, mustache, and calm gray oyes. Hie companionesome eight or ten years older, was of middle height or perhaps a trifle under, active and wiry -looking, with a sun.tanneeface, a 'firm mouth, and shrewd eyes that, on the whole, were Also good- natured. Both of the travelleA were in high spirits -and no wonder. They had heard good accounts of the grouse; they had just caught , a glimpse of the Garra, which had plenty of water after the recent raius. Over there was the little steam - launch that could amuse them 'now and again for an idle hour; and beyond the bay the big, odd-looking house, iigainet its back- ground of fir and larch, seemed to offer them a hospitable welcome. Mary was at the top of the semicircular •flight of staire to greet them ; but even as elle accompanied them into the great oak hall she inetioctively felt that there was something unusual in her brotherti manner towards her. And when, presently; Mr. Meredyth had been taken away to be shown his OWD room, Fred Stanley remaitted be- hind., Kathchen had not yet put in an ap- pearance for some reason or another. t "Weil, what's the matter, Fred ?" Mary said at once. He had been kicking about the drawieg- room in a discontented fashion, staring out of the windows or glancing at the engravings while his friend was there; but now these two were alone. ' "The matter ?" said he. "Plenty the matter. I don't like to field that you have been making a fool of yoerself, and that you are still bant on making a fool of your- self." "But we can't help it if we are born that way," she said, sweetly. "O11 you know quite well what I mean," said thie tall young gentleman with the boyish mustache. "1 had heard something of it before, but I thought we might as well stop the night at Inverness on the way, north, and I saw Mr. Pardie. Now, mind you, Mamie, don't you take it into your head that Purclie said anything egainet you -he did not. He's a shrewddteacied fellow, and knows which side his bread is buttered. But he answered my queetions. And I find you have just been ruining this place - turning the whole neighborhood into a pau- per asylum -and -and flinging the thing away, as you might call it." " But it wasn't left to you, Fred," she re- minded him, gently. "And I have been do- ing my best -after enquiry. " Oh, I know," he Held, impatiently, "you've been got at by a lot of sentimental- ists in London -.-faddists, slummers, popu- larity hunters -and now, here in the High- lauds:you have been workiug into the hands of those agitator fellows who are trying to stir up anarchy and rebellion everywhere; and you let yourself be imposed upon by a parcel of scheming and cunning croftenewho don't thank you, to begin with, and who would pull this house to the ground and burn it the moment your baek was turned if they dared." "You haven't been very long in Loch- garra," said she, with much good humor, but you eeem to have used your tire in- dustriously, You know all about it-" "Oh, it isn't only this place ?" he taid. "Every one who reads the papers -who knows anything of the Highlands -is aware of what is going on. And you have allowed yourself to be taken in! For the credit of the family -for the sake of your own com- mon sense -you might have waited a little. Here was Mr. Purdie, who knew the place, who knew the people; but you must needs take the whole matter in your own hands, and begin to throw away your money right „- :44 THE HURON EXPOSITOR, ON TRIAL,- of the land; and this is the only instance in That's a good way to buy -a medicine, 'but it's a partite hard Condition *indite which to sell it.

We have two schools in the settlement at pres- ent, which are sufficient for the require- ments of the settlers. Ae regards taxes we hsve only sohool taxes to pay, which is only a mere trifle, in comparison with what we had to pay in the older -settled part of On- tario, Our market at Sault Ste. Marie can- not be equalled anywhere, as the following pricefor a few of our products will show: Butter, 18c to 25o per pound, generally about i5c ; eggs, 15c to 20a per dozen; Po - Woes, 40c to 60aper bushel: oats, 45o to 553 per bushel, and other products in the same retie. I might eay that these are not the extreme prices but the average prices the whole eummerahrough. In winter the lumber camps round us buy from us, of course, a large amount of produce at good prices, and ao we have a good home market right near na, \I am glad to notice that steps have been taken by the different agricultural societies and Fanners' Institutes in the district to try to bring to the notice of the world the many opportunities and inducements Algoma offers as a field of immigration and coloniza- tion. The formation of the "Algoma Colo nization Society "was a step in the right direction. A committee composed of direc- tors of the different agricultural societies and Farmers' Listitutes was formed last yesr to collect statistics as to the markets in and imports into the distriet, and the condition of the settlers already in the district, and general information as to the advantages of this country for immigration and colonization. The com- mittee have just published the result of their enquiriee in a pamphlet or book, and they have appended to it 16 good map show- ing the Townships between the Batchewana River and Sudbury, includiog St. Joseph Ieland and the Manitoulin. This map will be found very useful to the incoming settler. The reader will notice on looking at the map that the townships around Goulais Bey, (Pennefather, &melds, Hevit and Van Koughuet, &a, are marked on the map and that the Goulaie Bay settlement is also marked thereon. The pamphlet will be found to contain a large amount of general information, and everyone interested in the development of the great District of Al- goma should procure a copy of it. The ti- tle of the pamphlet is, " Algoma Farmers Testify," and I see by the newepepers that the Dominion Government have sent a sup. ply to Sir Chas. Tupper, High Commission- er for Canada, at London, England, and the Ontario Government have sent a supply to Mr. P. Byrne,agent for the Ontario Govern- ment, Liverpool, Eugland, so that people in the old country cen get a copy of the pamphlet by writing to or calling upon either of these gentlemen. People in Can- ada or the States can obtain copies of the pamplalet on application to Mr. Fred. Rogers B. C. L,, Barrister, &c., Sault Ste. Marie:Ontario, who is a Director of the Eastern Algoma Agriculturat Society, and who is Secretary of the Committee I have mentioned. As to the size of Algoma, I notice in a recent paper that it is 800 miles long, ex- tending from the French River on the East to the boundary of Manitoba on the West, that it is 400 miles wile, extending from the Salt water at Jernes Bay on the, North to Le.ke Superior, the River St, Mary and Lake Huron on the South, and that it con- tains 200,000 square miles, of which fully half are,arable aud contain the best soil for general agricultural purposes, and that a large portion of the other half are magnifi- cent sheep and cattle raising lands. Algo- Ma is twice as large as the whole of Eng- land, Ireland, Scotland and Wales andhe j Islands adjacent thereto. It will thus be seen that the people of Algoma are ot overstating matters when they claim that that there is room in this great district . for the "Landlear folk and the homeless folk of older Canada and Europe.

THE VALI4Y8 OF THE GOULAI8 AND BATOHE• WA14. -THE COUNTRY NORTH AND 1 WEST OF THE SAULT. To TIM INTOR OF THE HURON EiPGSITOR : Dear Sir: I -have noticed with a good deal of Pleasure that people living in differ- ent parte of Algoma are commencing to write to he hewspapers about the &grim!. tnral rekources of this great dittrict, and about thiynany opportunities and inducie- mente Algonla offers to the intending settler and coloilet ; but, so far, I have read no- thiug in by of the papers about the Goulais Bay dietrict or the country north and west of the &init. There is room in the town- ships north ad west of the Sault, and in the valleys of the Goulais and Bitchewana, for thousand t and thousands of settlers. There are already a good many settlers living in what is knbwn as the • Goulais Bay settle- ment. The first settler located in the set- tlement some eight or nine years age, and we have ticiw upwards of 200 inhabitants, proeperotis and doing very well. We have an fine soil as can be found anywhere iu the world. A nettler CAD find any soil .he may desire, frchn a rich sandy lottan to a heavy clay. TlikiF1: townships -of Van Koughnot, Fenwick, ehdlleviland, are already pertial- ly settledbut there is still room in those townshipsfe* a goodenany more settler?. and the tetenships ef Pinnetather and Den- nis, to the south of them, hive as yet miry one or twd settlers and contain magnificent land. In fact, all the townships between, say, Ryan atnd Palmer townships, north and wett of the 13atchowana river and Sault Ste. Marie icohtetin excellent land. They are well deatimed by several rivers and creeks, the hvo largest being the Goulais and BatcheWario, rivers, flowing in a west- erly direction through the townships, the latter emptkiug into Batchewa,na Bay, on Lake Superiter„about 35 miles north of Sault Ste, Marie, and the former emptying into Goulais B&yi about 25 miles north of Sault Ste. Marie. Tiny are also well watered 1,ey the HermonY and Cranberry rivers, and ! large numbet ofsmaller streams and aprieg creeke, giving tabunclant supply of pure water. Theiali 'ete beieg a very healthy one for HADneast, and the country not being subject to dhiastrous storms or hurri- canes in sumitier, or blizzards in winter, it will easily bet son that for elieep or cattle iaising this coiuntry offers far greater induce- ments than ither Other field of immigration. Thinking that my own experience in Algoma might be prAtablie I beg to send you a few facto. Being left h.tly youthful days without any of this tvoald's goodie I, like many othere, begat o hink bow I was going to make an honest living. Well, I had to commence at the eowest step of the ladder and hire out ulna I earned enough money to start on a Stha1l rented farm in the county of Wellington.' 1 was not euecessful in that venture. 1 gate tip that farm and rented another in the iatne county. I did a little better on this farm, but found I could not get ahead. About this titne I began to get anxious -as my Lanny was growing up -to procure a home of My own. At that time there were a great many goiog to the Slate of Michigam and I, with seven others, thought we Would lea what the prospects were in that Stets.. They did not suit us. I returned home, diseatisfied with many of the American laws and customs, and moved to the county of Sitticoe on a rented farm, It was not many years, however, until I be- gan to see that I could not make or save the price of a farm by renting one, and, being anxious to get a home for myself and chil- dren, I sold my effects and moved to what is now known as the "Goulais Bay Settle- ment," where I now reside. I bought 160 aeres, and since then another 130 acres. There was not one tine chopped on any of the land. We have now 73 acres cleared, a clear deed of the property, and not a cent against it, with sufficient stock to use all the feed we can grow. Besides all this we have raised 12 children, all healthy and liv- ing. Now, I think when you consider the short time I have been here -it will be only 8 years the 20th of next May -and the im- provements that have been made in tbat time by a novice in farming, who came here, with hardly any money at alletliere would be no fear but that an Englishman, Scotch• man, Irishman or old Ontario farmer, hav- ing a practicaCknowledge of farthing, joined with a little means Or capital, would sue coed as well as I have done; and I may say there areothers who have done still better with even still smeller mesas, and I can mention their names if necessary. With regard to the climate, I like it much better than lower Ontario; we do not Buffer as much with the cold as in older Ontario. This may appear strange to 'Some, but I do not fear'successful contradiction in making this statement. As a proof of what I say, I etave been for a nuMber of years carrying the mail to and here the town of Sault Ste. Marie, which is 26iniies distant by the mail route, and in 5 years I have never been de- layed by the cold or frostbitten in the least, although driving 20 miles without a halt each titne. The summers here are pleasant and healthy, owing to the breeze off Lake Su- perior. We are blessed with tbe best water- ed country in the world, The farm is eel- dom seen in Algoma where there is not a good living spring of pure water or a run- ning brook. Fever, malaria or ague are un- known; ail kinds of crops do well here. Wheat, spring and fall, oats, barley, buck- wheat,corn, tomatoes, apples, crab-apples, plumereherries, ourrants of different kinds, raspbehiee, etrawberries, &e. As to rooti I never saw them equalled anywhere. The potath crop is always an excellent one, and the turnips, inangolds, parsnips, carrots, &c., cannot be beaten , anywhere. Some people seem to have the Ides that Algoma may be subject to frosts in summer, the same as Manitoba and the Northwest Terri- tories and the Northwest States; this is a mistake. In my 8 years experience at Gem tale Bay we have never, been injured with the frost but once, and that was last season when we planted some potatoes in low, new ground. The ground eras too low. We should hove known better than to have planted them there. I rhay say, in refer- ence to this low grourid, that we have drain- ed it at very little expenne. There is very little low ground in this bountry, and none but what can be easil* ahd cheap& drained. The summer frost inentidned was not a gen- eral thing in the neighbokhood,or even with US, as we had excellent °tops on all the rest 1, and best. I will be glad to answeremu enquiriits that may be made of me personally or by letter. Sault Ste. Marie is within 24 houzo travel from either Montreal or Toronto, so tine district is easily, quickly and cheaply reached. ANDREW MCAULEY, Goulais Bay P. 0., Ontario. Sudden Destruction. It was a February day, writes a corree- pendent of Goldthwaite's Geographical Magazine, with a warm sun and a Chinook wind from the Pacific melting the snow. All along the trail, as we wound up the moue- tain side, great masses of snow seemed tio overhang us, and more than once I noticed how anxioue the grizzly -haired old guide seemed to be. Only a narrow path ha been cleared through the snow, and the twenty mules followed each other in sing e file. Half way up we came to four cabins o cupied by miners. Three brawny men red shirts Mood at the door of one of th cabine talking as we filed past. Salutes were exchangedeibut we had no oecasioh to andwlhvvte ,ne h w eraedagboonneabout three hundred feet, t to make a turn in the trail, I halted to look back. The guidie was ahead -I came second. The line df mules was strung out for a quarter of a mil and on foot among them were five patkirs, all half-breeds. I heard no signal of danger, no cry o alarm. With the swiftness of thought th snow, five hundred feet up the mountains began to move. The width of the avalanch was about half a mile, and it moved ver rapidly. There were thousands of tone o snow, hundreds of treee, hundreds of grea boulders. In a few moments it was all over, and cloud of what seemed smoke hung over th spot. , I drove off down the mountain afte two or three minutes, and I looked for ou pack train.

Almost everything that is of use to man is capable of abuee. This is especially true of stimulantand sedatives. These drugs, in their elementary state, are gener- ally violent poisons. Even tea and coffee are not exceptions to the rule. The abuse of such things consist in using them too much, or for improper purpoees. Nature meant them for medicines, and used intelli- gently as such, they ate arnoeg her best gifts to the afflicted. Cocaine, obtained from the elementary principle of coce leaves, is exceedingly valuable in minor surgical operations as a substitute for ether and chloroform; but already it is becoming fearfully abused. According to the London Lancet, approv- ing a paper on the subject in the Journal of Mental Science, its special dangers are three: It is treacherous; it produces an early break -down, both morally and intel- lectually ; it itt intensely poisonous, and speedily causeir destructive tissue changes. In chronic cocaine poisoningt general wasting appears early and develoues with extreme rapidity. Convulsions also are not uncommon. In animals it 'iv found to pro- duce degeneration in the cells of the medulla and spinal cord, and also in the nerve cells of the heart ganglia and in the liver cella "The great danger of cocaine lies in the fact that itis the most agreeable and allur- ing of all narcotics. It causes no mentel confusion, only a little more, talkativeness than usual. There is no headache or nausea, and the pleasant effects are produced with a comparatively small dose; but symptome.of poisoning are rapidly developed, and within' three months of the commencement of the habit there may be marked indications of degeneration, lose of memory, hallucinations aud suspicione." The author of the paper in the Journal of Mental Science says that much harm has resulted from a recent tendency to uee coitaine to break off the opium habit, and from a mistaken notion that this drug can be employed eafely and advantageoualy for that purpose. The writer adds that cocaine is more insidious than morphine, fastens more readily upon its victim, and holds him ID at least as tight a grasp. -From Youth's Companion.
