A French padre in New York, caring as he says for the souls of twenty-three thousand, returns to his native land, where as soon as his distressing cough is relieved, he may be sent to Japan or India, the Obligations Of his order, Fathers of Mercy, requiring him to Obey without a murmur, and go without even a questioning look. Here is a young American countess, a black-eyed girl, who married a title in France, and now finds, after her fortune has been scattered by her lordly husband, that wealth after all is worth more than a title, and she goes to her husband's people to persuade them to give to her a share Of the proceeds Of the sale Of a French chateau, in which part Of her dowry was invested. I pray her a successful mission. The vessel contains a microcosm. As the personal details of each are unfolded in the gossip of the ship, one finds the same wrecks, and the same high hopes that meet his eye everywhere.
