And very hojiriily Hi-ro tlio che«'rM reiterated by those assembled on di'ok, us wo roc*nlod from the shore, whore the cauuy aiild Beotchiuau ]>ushitd tholr blue bonnets back from tlieir faces, that they might tlio better have a litst look at theu' woU- loved sous lUid daughters, who hiul turn- ed their backs iijiou thoir native hills and Bet«mt for the Uuid of gold, while many u stiu'dy Scotch molhei' applii^l a corner of her eoai-se cheeked apron to one eye, ajid so made the other do duty for both, tts we hailed away. Ah I how bravely we strngglod that friends or friend, for no wamer »1id his foot t^juch the deck than ho looked around and anxiously scanned tlie faces of all tho vifsiblo passengers, then strode briskly to where the cjij)tain stood, aud imulo some eager imiiiinos. That ho was sadly disajipoiuted I eould plainly sei', ultliough I heai'd none of the eouvei'satioii. The bright light died out uf his eyes, tlio exiieetant look from his faei% and drawing Ids cap down over luu forohoa*!, as if to Iddi^ the agouiziMl exin-essiou that had crejit iuto his fiu»> as much as possibly, he sprang over the sliiii'u edge aud rapidly dcM-jcudeil the ladder; liiit iustwad of di'Oiipiug iuto his skill'as 1 had expotitinl U» site him do, he, either fnfm intent or accident, sank boueatli the water; tho small space lyiug between his boat an<l tlic shiji opening to receive him, aud thou quii-tly closing above him without , even tJie sign of a cry for assistiince, or a night to kooi> the drejid 8*;a-siekut?Ks at; j^roim of augiush haviug eseaijod from bay ; for, on aeeonnt of the roughmfss of , Ids jtulcd li]>s. tlio iK^cHU, it bi'gau t*> Hho«' signs of au [ It wa« only for a moment thai I stood attack liefoje we were well uuder way ; ! potritiwl ; but before I could recover butasit wasuotuntilthogatheringshados I from the shock aud give an alarm, my of night ronderej tho shoi'e of our bo- brother IJuvo, who f<irtunately hud wii^ way of baking and brewing, that back- woods cheer might atone fi>r all dert- cicucicK in the way of other comforts. It was a very out-of-the-way place in which wc lived, imd seldom was the monotomy of our lives broken by tho welcome foot- steps of guests ; c<mBequently Hugh and I were considerably startled by a mjiid knocking at our door late one cold, rainy night, as we sat cosily before our crackling hickory fire, he I'eadiug and I sening. However, Hugh lost no time in clos- ing his book and hiMt'oning to answer tho aumniouB; but no sooner did he open the tloor than he staggered back like a dnuikou man, Iiia face deadly jiale ; and before I had time to reach him, a small, fragile womiui, with hair like snow, en- tered, and without any hesitation ad- vanced toward Hugh, and flinging her amis about him, sobbetl out in the most l)itiou8 tones : \O Hugh ! Hugh ! why did you leave me ? Wiy did you for- sake me ? WHiy did you not come to the shii> to me, a s you promised V Why, why ?\ And then, completely ovorciuiie with fatigue and excitement, tlio p(»or thing foil seuBoloss npon the floor. Hugh, looking m<n-e like a statue tliau a living man, gazed down for a moment upon the limp nnisB at his foot, and then, regiuning his hahituid composuri!, called mo to his aSKistanoo, and in a few miii- iit«!K, through our united efforls, we suc- ceeded in restoriug her to eouscious- iiess, and then divesting her of her sat- urated gannenta, hiid her upon her hod, where she tossed and tumbled tlio whole night through, mntt<>iing incoherently to hereelf, wuuetliing about \min rain.\ Towards UHtiiiing she fell into a ijiuot, peacoftil slumber, fi-oui which she awoke witli her nerves <iiiieted mid her reasim restored, IJut it was only the cidm that usuiJ precedes death. Towards the clone of the day, Just as all tho little birds were folding their tircil wings preparatory hu- a night's rest, she, her night being gone, and lier morning e^tme, began to uiifohl her wings that she might Hy away U> llioso sunny lauds wlioro we ai'o'told then' is no night; and before Hugh, who, lit the (ii-st signs of tho death damji had ridden post ha^tt! for assistaiiee, had time to return, ^ho had tlown ; not, how- ever, before she had told her strange, pathetic st<uy. Htninge to us theu; quite clear to us now, Hugh hariug, through strenuous ex«rti(ui, diseovoreil the uiinio of the young girl who died on the Clyde tola- Mary Camerou, nhilo his Bweothojirt's name was Jessi)*, Havuig exiioctAid iioiio but his own h>ve in tlio Clyde, in the anguish he had felt at news of her death he had never thought to iuqnire into piu-ticulars. It seemed tliat on her way di>wn from her mounhiiu home she had been delayed for two days and nights by one of thoHo siiddon mountain miu storms that ofteu-tuues make tho na-ky dotiles impas- Bidile for days aud weeks. Too late fur the C'lydo, she had smbarki'd on tho uoxt sailing vessel, and so lauded in a strange laud with the face she had ox- jH'cted to look iqton of all others, many hundred miles distant—tht; dom- fmu- she had so eagerly looked forward to meet- ing. Pride forI)ado her roturu ; while au idl powi'i'fu] love, together with a slight iuHiinily induciul by the shock, had urgi-d/n-r to piujs her days aud years in ti'ai-ing the whereabouts of tlie false fac^', that t^he might look uixni it if only fur oiicii. And ti'uly she hiid down her life for that one hist look, ultlmngh her hut hoiu's wem made much ha]»]>ier by know- ing that Hugh had nt^t l>een falst\ Hugh uovor jiasses by the grave at the foot of the gj'out <»ak, but with uncov- ered head aud sorrowftd face. lovud hind iuvisibh', that wo succumbed to tlie clutch of its cold, clammy Angel's. Wh<'ii next wt; sttJod ujiou deck, we found tbe ex]>ause of water so great on every baud, the surrouuding horizon so disiunt. the sceuith so vi-ry high, that the great Clyde sttemtid but a s]iock iloatiug about ujiou the bosom of tho mighty 'doep.

Among the i»a*iheugors, ou the night he made no endoa^•o^ whatever toward tkJf preservation, Dave was by his side, und in a manm-r rougher than it wiui f ^entlo, caught him by the shoulders, and >y dint of great stieugth succeeded iu drugging him iuto the boat in u condi- tion more dead thuu alive. ^ And that was how Hugh Carlyle came of ouj- dejiuj-ture, I had taken paj-ticulai-1 to join his lot with oui's.

Hamilton A. Hill, of Boston, presented a paper before the Social Science Asflo- ehition, in which he nnsumos that tho present ]>opulation of the United States is about -10,000,000 of wmls ; of this number over 13,(HM),000, or over 33 per cent. lU'o in receipt of an income, and 11,000,000 mid directly by their labor to the weidth of the country-. Those 11,- 000,01H) nro subdivided with approximate acciirncv as follows : Agriculturalists, fl,500,0(K); moehaiiics, I,000,(HM); labor- ers, l,r)(KMHH); commercial class, 2,000,- 000, or IH per cent, of the whole. It keeps afloat 4,000,000 of shipping under the American ilag einjdoyed on the in- land waters of the country, along the coast and ui>on the ocean. It has built 50,000 miles of iidlroad, over which 48,O(M),O0O tons of mei-chandise pass an- nually, not inclndingeoal; it controls the oxiMU-t and import of morchandiso val- ued for tlio last year at 6000,0'„'0,000, It produeoR from the HpimUes, h)omH, forges and benches of our immborloss mmiufactiirint: ostablishineiits the value of from 65(K),000,0(H) to 6(iO0,(KM),O0O a year. It directs the oi>oratiouH of the banks scattered all over the country, the paid-up eapit4d of which in $100,000,0(HI, and the resources of which aiuonnt to a billion and a hidf. But this is not all. In a word, the total jn'oduct of the in- dtistry of the United States, for the past 3'enr is six billion eight hundrod and twenty-live milHiuis of dollnrs, docs no nnu'o than mojmiire the scope mid oxloiit of tho iuHuenco exertotl by business men iu one way or auothor, indirtH-tly or remot^'ly, soonr-r or later, ou the matenal ]m)sperity and dovelojicmout of llio na- lioii. From these ju-i'inisop, Mr. Hill argues that froni this time forwiml it it will bo inciinibont uixui Congress to dovot<> its time and thought chiefly t«» mnterial tpicstions. Business men should lake II larger interest in politic-al move- ments ; members of Ccuigress ought to bo ehosou from this class rather than from nioro partisauism, and in that way reformation in government aHairs ma.y be carried out t o tho best adviiutage of the jH'Oplo, anil for the rajiid develop- niont of the illiiuitablo resources of the country.

The boats stai-ted in puiwiit aud recovered one-hnlf of the niimlH-'r. For throe weeks aft^T lea\-ing port the coolies woi-e not permitted on deck. Tlioy were st^iwed between deekB, in four rows, two aluidshijis luid one in each wing, a space Rixteen inchos wide being alloted to each individual. After tho three weeks' imprisonment below, under gmted hatchwayfl, the eooUes wero al- lowed to come <m deck in gongs of fifty, f«ir one hour, for tin* inir]»oBo of exorcise. The deck wafl in charge of RentrioB armed to tho teeth, besides carrying a cat o'- niue tails. Tho after part of the dock was separated from the main deck by barricfldoB dofondod by can-onailos. In order to get tho amcaiiit of exercise nec- essar.v iu the time alhd^'d the men were otmipelled to move lively, being incite<l thereto from time to time with tho lash of the cat. Boon after being allowed to oomo on di'ok some difllculty occurred botweou the erew and a gang of Chinese, which resulted in the juinjdng overboard of a number of the Coolies, our inform- ant says eighteen. After getting well out iuto the Pacific, all hopes of the re- loaso from this involiintaiy bondage, by <ivor|)oworing the erew, died out, anil the Coohes Bottleil down in despair. Soon it became necessary to allowance them, and they wore given a dish in which their food and water wer.' served out t o (honi.
