AN IRISH RFART.
On our referring the matter to Geo
he answered very quietly :
I don't mean to say what's right
what's wrong for you, sir ; but -you k
boating's my business, and, if I wa

money for it, I should 1080 all the f
ing of Sabbath, I can see that.
thought it all over, 'and I guess I'd
ter not go. Bat I'll speak to -some
the men. as I go along to meeting,
some of 'em will go, fast enough."
So he sent up somebody who pro
not: to be a "meet -in' man" by
means ; he took my friend out to
and charged him double- for such e
science as he had in the matter; an.
must say that whatever the right of
particular case might be, I liked to
George stand by his colors.
He might be said to stand by
colors, physiologically speaking, v
well, being of dark complexion,
burnt almost literally black as to at
and neck, bysuri and wind. At
helm of a boat, iu his blue shirt, ro
clothes, and old straw hat, he was
good-looking young sailor enough,
the serious strength of his face c
manded the confidence of all com
This confidence he well repaid, and
had, withal, his own modest opinion
offer on many subjects. Besides be
a thorough sailor and=tisherman, he
a bit of a naturalist ; he liked to be w
people who could, as he said, "le
him something," and the great event
his life was a aurnrner he had spent
scientific dredging with Proles
Agassiz. His favorite reading next
the Bible was the "Popular Scie
Monthly," with which one of his dre
ing acquaintances kept him suppli
and Huxley's "Lay Sermons," which
had bought with his own ' earnin
These he read and: re -react, and stow
defended their orthodoxy, even again
his own minister. But he was read
forgiven for such heresies, inasmuch
he went regularly to meeting, sang
the choir, and did not take people o
sailing o.a Sunday.
He had spent one summer as mate
an expensive yacht; but did not like t
life, he said ; and the strongest feeli
of his nature was an antipathy to ce
tain elegant youths whom he had the
seen. - -
"There was one of 'em," he said in a
unusual buret of confidence, "whom
•should have liked to have hove ove
board, for the way he talked about som
of our girls here, as if he'd only got
hold up his finger and any of 'em woul
come to him, just like a Cade -lamb,''
Rhode Island for pet -lamb.
"At last I said to him., 'Major A
cher,' says I, 'you can say what yo
please upon the quarter-deck, and
can't help myself ; but this is my pa
of the ship,'—we was forward, yon se
looking at a new jib top-sail,—'and
yon don't just hash up, one or theothe
of us has got to leave this yacht." H
ain't no coward, the major ain't, but h
knowed he was wrong, and one of th
other men jest whispered to him, an
they kind of pretended they didn't hear
but the sailing -master said I was righ

gees."
George had no other vehement preju
dice, except that which he natural]
derivedboth from his meeting and hi
science, against the Roman Catholi
church. Our attention was more fixe
on this last feeling, as it evidently di
not interfere with a growing taste fo
the society of Nora. We had engaged
him to take our whole kitchen force
such as it was, in his sail -boat every
Saturday afternoon, but it was apt to b
Nora who lingered at the wharf after
ward to help him make fast the skiff -
a moat superfluous aid, which he ac
cepted with absurd readiness. It was
Nora whom the other girls teased abon
George : and it was she whom he act-
ually took ikl his boat ou Sunday—gra.
tutiously, as was explained—to the
Roman Catholic church at the end of
the bay. When some one called him
to account for thus' aiding to supply that
hated church with -votaries, he said.:
"She had a right to her opinion, sir,
jest as much as I have. Nora is a good
girl, if she is a Romanist. I wish I was
as good !"
"George," said the frank lady of the
house, "would you marry a Catholic?"
"No, ma'am," said -G-eorge, firmly,,"I
wouldn't ; there'd always be tronble."
"But you might want to marry one,"
she said.
"Perhaps she'd change," said George,
shyly..
But when Nora was asked the same
question, she said :
"Indeed:, and I would marry a Prot-
estant., ma'am ; and why not, if we
loved each other, and he didn't meddle
with my religion ? I know whom you're
thinking of ma'am, and he's uot keep-
ing company with me at all ; and he's
better than I am,if he is a Protestant."
"Feminine reasoning," said the lady
aforesaid. "She'll follow him, but he
will not follow her."
Then came, however, a week or two
during which neither of the two seemed
to be following the other, but the ecu-
trary ; they began to keep a little apart,
we fancied, untiLone evening, near the
end of s.nmmer, I met Nora crossing
from the main street toward our mari-
time suburb, and then, at some dis-
tance behind, I met George. This hap-
pened again some day's later, and I
frankly caked him if it was accidental.
"I can't exactly say that I'm follow-
ing her," said George, gravely, ',but
there's others that do it if I don't, and
those that will be no good to her:'
There was a serious, almost angry
look upon his brawn warily face ; but I
could get frorp hien no farther explana-
tion, nor had I seen anything to explain
his anxiety.
A few nights later, about ten o'clock/
I strolled clown on our neighbor's pier
to see if the waves were phosphorescent.
The pier was already occupied by two
persons ;'one being a young man and
the other a young girl who was speaking
rapidly and, it seemed, imploringly.
They did uot at first see rue ; but pres-
ently the man turned and went impul-
sively away ; he could not help facing
me ; and I recognized a man whom I
