Tlio old ship Vincent teemed to bo ono f those crafts that, according to the Jieory of sailers, sire doomed to ill fate. James Murshoil. a young man fruta New port. II. I.. had been herenptain for five years, ami during th:it time she had leeii twice "knocked down;" once had she carried awe." her foremast, and at the time of which we write the old ship was docked at Liverpool, undergoing repairs from a serious damage she had received during a heavy gale in St. George's chan nel. I'.nt in till these mishaps the owners had leen forced to acknowledge that the young captain was entirely free from blame, while on the other hand lie had made le tter "time" in his trips than any other mast; r had lecn able to get out of Jier. The last damage which the Vincent received proved to Ik; the occasion of the dawning of a new era in the life of Capt. Marshall, for while? waiting in Liverpool for his hip to be prepared he fell in with a blooming few England girl named Kimiia Bainsay, the eldest daughter of the agent who did the business for the Vincent's owners, and ere long they dis covered that between them there existed ii K-culiar feeling of mutual love. Capt. Marshall popped the delicate question, Emiia consulted with her papa, and at length fdie consented to beet). no Mrs. Marshall. It was a happy "day for all parties when the marriage took place, f'ir from the known characters of the Jiridrgroom ar.d hu bountiful bride all felt wire that the match would prove one of peace and content. The Vincent was ence mors ready for Ma- Her carg-i was all oti board .and Whipped for i'.;tin. ai:d Emma bad re ,iolvcd to accompany her husband to the United States. I'or a number of days the weather was pleasant and the wind was fair, while ("apt. Marshall felt himself supremely happy in the delightlul com pany of .hi ; v i.e. Tho! sailors shook their heads t:s they saw the gentle Emma rmcing the deck, and they very mysteri ousIy asserted that "such pleasures couldn't always List." and so indeed it proved, for at the close of a pleasant day, v.hen they v.'cro within three or four days' sad of their destined port, things began to hk anything but agreeable. Away to the southward and eastward the Jiorioii lcgaii to assume a sort- of inky Jjl.iknrs: with hero and there a ghost like Ovid si ot, while? on all hands the lieavens hrid changed their ethereal blue for a cttst" or deeper and more fearful iiu jort. L'apt. Me.r. ha!I f Itas lie bad never felt Jx?forjo:i the approach of a storm. For himseJf for bubl.ip he had r.o thought then. There was one on board who en grossed Lis every sympathy for his tung wife be felt a 'degree of intense anxiety that was painful, but ho forgot not bis duty, and with corn pa rati vecalm ps he set "about it. The courses were JiaWd up and snugly furled, the. lighter tsuls taken i:i and the Jofty yards and topgallant prists sent on deck and the three topsails cjose reefed. Long lefore tha s;ri went down the undulating ocean had assumed almost the blackness of night, and not many moments cLipsed after tlie spars bad lieen secured upon tho deck, ere t!ie frtorm imrn upon the ship. It was a regular southeaster, and those who liave cncountere J one of these storms in the culf . know something of their power, lii 'her and liigber roso the mighty tem lst until at length it was found neces sary to take in the topsails And trust to iho fore and main stormstaysails Acd a balance reef spanker, and in this way Iho bhip lay to till morning, the gale in creasing every hour. , apt. MarshaU trusted that whea the rv" rr.Lc on tlio net Qa'ctiu storui wouia abate, but in this he was disappointed, for a part of the forenoon ho was actu ally obliged to scud before it. It was not until two staysails had been torn from their lolt ropes that ho fully explained his anticipations and tho ex tent of his fears to his wife. "Emma," said he, "I wish I had not taken you with me." "Why so?" she asked, as she gazed up into her husband's. face with apparent astonishment. "Why so? Do you not comprehend our danger?" "Hut the ship docs not leak, does it?" returned Emma, with remarkable cool ness. "No." "Then let us not fear tho storm. I was born ujon tho Atlantic, and I feel that 1 can j-et trust to my nativo cle ment." The captain was astonished at this trait in his wife's character, and clasping her in his arms he felt his owu soul swelling with a new life. "Duma," he said, as he gazed more affectionately than ever into her face, "my heaviest fears are passed. For you aloc.o have I feared tho most; but now I ecu calmly tell you wherein lies our danger. This storm has driven us far out of our course, and twice have wo been scudding before it. I fear that the coast of Maine cannot be far to tho 1 jc wurd. and of that coast I know nothing, :;ave what I may gather from my chart For us to lay to is next to impossible. The rising sea has rendered our staysails use less, and I have been obliged to set the close reefed maintopsail, but she cannot hold it long." "My husband," returned Emma, 'though you may know nothing of the coast of Maine, yet there are but few spot3 along her rugged shores that are not as play grounds to me. My father was for years a surveyor of her islands and harbors, and I was his constant com panion. To mo her cliffs and inlets pre sent nothing that can alarm me." Hardly had she ceased speaking when a sharp crack, like the report of a pistol, sounded from aloft, followed by a tear ing and crashing that started the captain to his feet. "The main topsail has gone!" he ex claimed, and immediately he sprang upon the deck. Again the ship was put before the gale, and for several moments Capt. Marshall was undecided what to do. While in tins quandary he felt a hand laid upon his shoulder, and on turning he beheld his wife. She had a "sou'wester" upon her head and a pea jacket buttoned closely about her. t "What is the matter, James?" she nsked. Her husband explained his perplexity. A strange look of fearlessness ami con fidence rested upon that fair womarf's face, and looking for a moment at the compatis.ehe said: "We head duo northwest. Station a trusty lookout in the fore-top and let the t-hin stand on!" Capt. Marshall felt at that moment as though an angel had been sent to pilot l.im t. a haven of rest. Whence arose the feeling he knew not, but instinctive ly lie obeyed. Fearful and loud roared the mighty storm, and on dashed tho riven thip. but all fe'arlessand comjxised scood the heroic woman upon the quar ter deck, and the hardy seamen, as they gazed upon her, felt that what daunted not a woman should not daunt them. "Land hoi" came from tho foretop. In three minutes more, as the : hip rose upon the losom of a giant sea. the land wiis made out upon the deck, learing abaut two jioints on the larboard low. Emma caught sight of it, and seizing a glass, at the next swell she discovered a lighthouse upon its summit. Then she turned her glass over the starloard beam and in a moment tihe exclaimed: "There are the IJantam ledges. That land on the larlmard Uw is Seguin, and beyond I can see Cape Small Point. James," she continued, as she gazed into her husband's face with a look till made up of conscious power, "if you will drop your foretopsail, I will take you into the Kennebec!" , For a moment Capt. Marshall bad hardly credited the evidence of his own senses, but one look into the calm, radi ant features of his wife determined him, and in five minutes the foretopsr.il was sheeted home. Fmma Marshall seized tho spanker out liaul and sprang upon the whe-clhouse. and calm as the falling of the summer's dew fell her orders to the men r.t the : wheel. Tho island of Scguin was cleaicd j jn safety, and tho ship bowled fearlessly by the foam dashed rocks, and civ long her bows cleft the smoother waters of . the gpbl . Keimebec. All Qpj: sf- J jvssrd. Tiiougn tho 6tortn still raged, yet tho old Vincent rode at anchor, and tho howling tempest could harm her no more. Confidence was restored to the hardy crew. Emma Marshall descendinl from her station and sought her cabin. Her rough habilaments were thrown aside, and ere long she reappeared in all tho modesty and beauty of her native grace. Capt. Marshall pressed her to bis bosom, and tit that moment the hardy seamen waved their hats igh above their un covered heads, while a prolo-jged shout of joy and gratitude wt nt from their relieve.) souls. They had been saved from the terrible co:::.t storm, and from the b ittom of their hearts l.'iey con fessed that Emma Marshr.:! wa.t a wife worth h:u ii:g. : , 1. ai.us C '.bb.

San Diego Union. Gettiiiz Kvon. At Tientsin, China, two t-cihbors who had been on the most intimate terms had a little spat, and afterward one of them, Mrs. Wang, threatened to commit sui cide. Tho Shih Pao, which has the curious story, tells of what followed in this manner: Mrs. Feng, upon hearing this threat and fearing lest she should bo helplessly implicated should her enemy carry her threat into execution, resolved at once to take time by the forelock and steal a march upon her enemy by taking her owu life, and thus turn tho tables upon her. She accord ingly threw herself into a deep ditch with the intention of drowning herself. Fortunately a countryman who was passing by rescued her, and taking her home attempted to effect a reconcilia tion, with but partially successful results. ' I: h it Oltbj last I.)--. ..-I' .. .

We had been held in reserve for five ':ng hours while cannon thundered and muskets crackled spitefully along the front a mile away. A procession of dead and wounded had filed past us until we were sick with horror. Shot and shell and bullet had fallen upon us behind the woods until the dry. dead grass bore many a stain of blood. "Attention! Forward guiJa right march!" Our brigade was going in at last, and there was a look of relief on the face of '?very officer and man as we got the ! word. " Guide right front forward march!" As we swung clear of the woods a gust qf wind raised the smoke for a minute, and 1 saw the plain in our front blue with dead and wounded. Away beyond ! them was a line of earthworks, and I had one swift glimpse of a thin blue line kneeling behind the cover. "Steady! Right dress! Double quick j march!" The air is alive with the ping of bul lets and the whiz aeid shriek of 6hot and shell. We lend our heads as if breasting a fierce gale laden with icy pellets. There is a wild cry a shriek groan as men are struck and fall to ' the earth, but no one heenls them no one hesitates. It i3 a hurricaneof death, but we feel a wild exultation in breast ing it. Men shout, curse, sing, swing their bats and cheer. We are driving through the smoke cloud when there is a riash of fire in front. I seem to rise into tho air and float liither and tluther, and the sensa- uoc is bo dreamv and full cf rest .that! Corp. Tamifi- V.'iris a Uet. In the otlice of one of the prominent hotels one evening was overheard quite an amusing story of Corp. Tanner ani his two artificial legs. It seems that the corporal is very fond of fino horses and undertook to raise a few last year. He had ono particularly fine horse, a thor oughbred, and he would let no one use him but himself. One day while the stableman was exercising him he acci dentally stepped into a mud hole and sprained a leg sJ badly that the doctor advised having the horse's hoof bathed in hot water three" times a elay. One day, when the gallant corporal was giving the horse the customary bath, a friend of hij came along and told him it was cruelty to animals to bathe the horse's foot in such warm water, and asked him hew would lie like it if ho had to put his foot In it. To which tht cor poral replied t h;;t he would not mind it at all. Ilis friend, thinking he saw a chance to win g;ene money, bet him a hundred dollar.-, that he would not keep his fobt in the water for five minutes. The bet was no sooner said than it was j accepted by the corporal, win not only ( put Ids ftx;t in it. but put his whole leg.j m and kept it there for live minutes. The friend paid tho bet, but probably has r.ot to this day found out bow it was possible for the supposed victim to keep his foot in boiling waic-r fcr ilve minutes. Washington Critic. Count Mol:Ut. Count Moltke appears in public only when the reichstag is sitting, and until quite lately he was on:? of the most regu lar members of the house, where he takes a front seat ou the Conservative benches. If a speech is made in which he is par ticularly interested, he gets up, ap proaches the speaker, and holds lus hands to his car, in order to catch every word. He himself speaks very rarely, and the last time he said a few words was last year, when he moved u vote of thanks to the president at the conclusion of the session. A t lan ta A merican. Stalin the Slipper. At weddings anions Germans in the southern colonies 130 years ago, the groomsmen attended in their beautifully embroidered white aprons. Their duty was to piotect the briuV? from having her slipper -stolen from her foot..
