EFFIE'S FORTUNE.
'I don't ea11 it auy better than
cheating!' said old Mr. Pepperell,
indignantly. 'Ay, you may open
your big eyes Mies Effie, and look
as red as you pease—it don't altei
the trut-h of .things: iJou've no
more right to live in my bailee and
obeat me out of the rent of it, quar-
ter after q'tartor, -than you h the to
put your hand in my pocket and
dike out • my purse. There! aud
that you may tell ,your fine papa.
.And say it's old Roger Pepperell's
outspoken idea o f thinga.'
So Mr. Pepperell went away,elam-
ming the door behind hiul in his
wrath.
Effie Arden stood for a moment,
silent and trembling in the passage,
and then she ran baok into the
sitting -roost, carrying a spark-
ling shower of bright droppiug
tears.
Juliet, her older elate•, looked
up front the dress she was pa-
tiently darning, with eyes of mild
surprise.
'Effie, darling! What is it ?'
'Nothing, Julie, nothing. Only
we ore 80 miserably poor, and it is
so hard. And papa will keep toil
ing away at that big book, that will
never be fiuialied, and that no pub-
lisher will ever buy when it is'fin-
iahed. And—and—we have no
money for anything. Oh, it is so
cruel, so wortifyiug ! I; would
have given anything in the world
for that ten pounds just now to pay
that horrid old Pepperell I'
Juliet etuiled faintly.
'He is not horrid my darling ;
only the idea that we are in
debt.'
`Don't fret, dear,' said Juliet,
soothingly : it will come all right.
There is old Mrs. Della at the door,
gun and let her iu,'
'I don't want to se her,' said
she said, uoddin. her head at
the older one. 'Well, always did
say that you'd make a nod wife—,
taking thought for the household,
you hung', end all that sort of
thing. Aud Mase Effie—she's like
a suubearn—a butterfly.
Effie smiled.
'I wish I was a working bee in-
stead, Mrs. Dallas, with plenty of
money to make.'
`To be sure—to .be sure,' said the
old lady ; `a very laudable idea; but
I don't see that the working classes
are any better behaved than the rest
of us. Now there's Mueadora Har-
court, my niece,—Effie male a little
lightning -swift gr'mace at her sister,
as the venerable matron slipped laz-
ily into the conversational channel.
'Her companion has given her warn-
ing,aud only because she called her
a 'toady'. Did you ever! and it's
au easy place, too. Nothing to do
but to make herself agreeable; aud
twelve guineas a month is good pay
for that sort of thing„I'm sure. You
don't hsppau to know of any ono
who would suit my niece Mueadora,
do you, girls ?'
`No,':aid Juliet,with a little feint
of thinking.
'I do,' said Effie, flushed and
eager.
Juliet looked at her in sur-
prise.
Mrs. Dallas brightened up.
'A French girl ?'

Musadora would like you, my dear.
You've a light pleaeant way with

And so, in spite of Juliet's faint

QUEEN VICTORIA.
THE PERSONAL POPULARITY OF HER
MAJESTY—AN ACTIVE LADY.
London, \( iv 19.—The Loudon -
ars and the mullet ou- foreign visit-
ors here hid a g cal opportunity
la..t week of seeing the Queen and
most of her set vivilia family, and im-
mense theun egetlter•,•i au the larks

Queen iibcr.',,i a, p oily on account
of the length of time she has ocou
pied the throne, partly on account
of her great end universal popular-
ity. Conaidering 9110 will this
month complete her seventy second
year, her health is wonderfully good.
The only ailment that troubles her
is chronic i'}tetiniatiatu in one of her
knees. On this account asmall pony
carriage or befit chair is provided
for her whenever she gee's out, but
on tier visits to I'rieu,le she goes u•
bout without any difficulty with the
aid of a stick. She continuos to bit
an early riser, and gets through a
great Boal ut' hu.inese bufure utuat
people are eetir. Her ladies in wait
ing have to be o1, the alert, fur
their royal mistress tolerates no im-
perfect setvice and does not love to
have stupid people about her,
yet, thou;,it exaetiug at times, she is
the !tiniest wum.au in the world to
those who ;ire tuitblu! Bud diligent,
and site naves forgelt or neglects au
old friend, that Situ prefers old to
uety put haps ncconnti for her pre•
ferenco tole the Veteran et':kteSMOU of
the day over their young rivals, yet
ago has always pail marked atten•
tion to rising public men of either
party, the reigning family having
no politics, or none that the world
need know anything about. The
Prince of \Vales is al ways assiduous
in his attention to his mother, un-
like auy of his pr'edecessor's of the
house of Guelph. They made it a
principle of their lives to quarrel
with the sovereign. The present
heir to the crown has established a
new precedent in that regard, All
stories of his differences with the
.Queen are sheer inventions, the
mother and son being bound togeth-
er by ties of the closest affection, On
Thursday when the Queen wont to
the naval exhibition the prince walk
ed by her side pointing out all objects
of interest and answering all ques-
tions with a promptness which left
the great naval authorities nothing
t.1, say. People are always delight-
ed to see them together, and if the
Princess of Wales is also of the
party their satisfaction is complete.
During her drives in the park last
week the princess fairly divided
popular honors with the Queen, and
certainly she has the advantage of
beauty on her side, and as for youth
she scarcely looks a year older than
tvhe
n sho first landed in Eng
land. The rush to see the princess
as she passed was almost as great as
to see the Queen, although the for-
tner makes hor appearance nearly
every day.
The old complaints that the Queen
will not live in London are seldom
heard now, 'noel, sensible persons ad-
mitting that the presence or absence
of the court could not possibly make
that immense difference to trade
which sono ftancied. The usual
drawing•rooina are held and stoney
is spent just the same. It is also
recognized that the lady, with so
many claims 10 public respect, aud
who cannot live in the smoke aud
foga of tho city, has aright to choose
her own place of residence. Abun-
dance of exercise in pure air is ale
soletely necessary for the Queen,
and the most, radical of her subjects
admit that after a reign of fifty-
four years she may be allowed to en-
joy these advantages. Every detail of
public affairs still passes through
her hands. Tho first thing she did
on her arrival in London last week
was to have an interview of over an
hour with Lord Salisbury, during
which, no doubt, every domestic and
foreign question of importance was
touched upon. This week she re-
turns for another drawing•room, and
then she will not remain !brig at
Windsor. The hard work will have
to be done by the Prince of Wales
and his worat enemy cannot allege
that he neglects any part of his
d u ties.

AN• EXTRAORDINARY SE-
LECTION CASE.
At the Duff'erin assiz"s at Orange
vibe n most extraoriivary case,
Cook v. Vance, was down for trial.
The plaintiff, _Richard Cook, a le •
borer, of the township of Car.
rick, Bruce Comity, sues David
Vance, a wealthy farmer of \Vater•
Ino township for $.5,000 cluula,oes
for seduction of his daughter, Ellen
Jane Conk. It appears that in Jan-
uary, 1879, pleintifT'a d •ughter went
to keep house for the defendant, a
widower with a grown up family.
In April or -"the following year elle
became a mother, anti when her
father charged Vance wish being her
seducer, Vance declared that tt ey
were married. The two lived as
than and wife until the 10th of April
of this year, five children being born
during their twelve years of seem.
ing married life. In the beginning
of the month mentioned Vance, who
in bordering on 70, was taken seri-
ouely i11 and is now said to be on his
death bed. He was not satisfied
with the treatment he was receiving
in his sickness from Mies Cook, and
a quarrel ensued which ended in
Miss Cook leaving the house, tak-
ing her five children with her. Site
immeniatel•y disclosed the fact to
her father that she and Vance were
not married and then this action was
commenced. It is alleged in theplea,
ditlge that after the plaintiffs (loughs
ter been Ale pregnant the fourth tittle
the defendant induced her to take
drnge with a view of procuring an
abortion, and darnages are claimed
for her eufferini; in consequence. It
is said that Vance is willing to
marry ,Miss Cook on his deathbed,
hut is not prepared to make what
is considered a reasonable provision
for her and her five ehldren. The
action was not commenced in time
for the Waterloo or Wellington As-
sizes, and the venue has been laid at
Orangeville in order that judgment
may be secured this spring, Its this is
