My story? "Well, I don't sec why I
fclioulil not scratch it down. There's
nothing1 to he ashamed of in it, so far
as I know, and though regular story
tellers mayn't call it "romantic," I

ject for a lore story, to look at me,I'in
old enough, d'ye see, to fed safe above
the draft, and brown enough to be a
Hottentot; and as for llesh well, no
matter; sonic of jrou slim young dan

as long. Besides, that fracasat Gibral
tar didn't improve my looks. I'll tell
yon about that before the story is over,

Fataslam,and old as I am, there was
a tirr.e when I was as slender a young

only thing I ever regretted was the

Wait a bit. Honor bright, there was
one thing.
There was Jenny Blush, old Blush's
only daughter, and the prettiest girl I
ever cast eyes on. Her skin Avas just
as soft and fair as any baby's. As for
her hair, i're got a bit in my old desk
up stairs ; and though it has crossed
the ocean about a dozen times, it's so
bright now you'd take it for a gold
chain coiled down under the bit of
blue ribbon it's tied with.
Old Blush was my Captain ashore.
I mean that he was the head of the big
dry goods store where they first sctmc
to measuring rags, and Jenny used to
come over every day after ribbons and
calico and the like; and Lord love ye!
I don't find fault with women folks
looking after such things, though it
didn't seem a man place to sell 'cm.
She looked mighty pretty when she
put them on. Father and old Blush
were fast friends, and when they
found out that I was sweet on Jenny
they put their heads together and re
solved to sanction the match. I was
to be taken into partnership, d'ye see,
and was to step into the nig ou.siness
when the old gentleman stepped out.
Dry Goods, Wholesale and Jletail,"
was the sign but I always called 'cm
rags.
Well, Jenny and I were fond of each
other, and knew it already; so, the
ohl folks being agreeable, we saw a
good deal of each other, Sundays and
evenings, to say nothing of the errands
she ran to the store. And I used to
wish I could makeup my iiitinl to it
and sLay ashore; but I could not if I
died for it. I heard the waves beat
ing about my hca.l iu my die mis. 1
hated the cloth, yard and' scissors so
they made me ill. And. one night I
told Jenny so. She cried a hit; hut
by and by she owned that she didn't
hale me for it; and we talked over
the lime when l'&.ho:il-l be a Ca tain,
and she could make every voyage with
me, and have a cabin like a parlor to
herself.
Then she let me kiss her. P'raps
she kissed me back; and I cut oil" the
yellow curl I told you of with a pair
of scissors the only pleasant job 1 ev
er did with the confounded things in
all my life.
That night I ran away, and though
I blubbered like a child when I passed
mother's door you couldn't have coax
ed me back again. What a man wants
to be he will be ; and there are men
meant from their cradles for water as
sure as the fish are.
1 got a letter from old mammy that
cut mc up; but I knew she'd come
round, and I didn't guess the worst
how should I? When it first came to
mc that a man who sold rags was bet
ter than a sailor it took iny breath
away. This was when I first went
home, d'ye see? Mamma scolded and
cried and kissed me, but Margarel,
Melinda and brother Charles Augus
tus pitched into me ferociously. Says
they: ' You've disgraced your family
Ave liaArc been respectable genteel
folks all our lives and now avc are to
have a common sailor for a brother ;"
I taught it a regular gale, and father
Fut injjis oar regarding disobedience,
cleared out and went over to old
Blush's. Nobody Avas at -ionic but
Jenny, and she rushed into my arms.
Well, wo were billin and cooin' as
sweethearts mostly do, I reckon, when
old Blush came home to tea. 1 never
heard a gale of Avind roar louder than
he did when he saw me.
"What do you want here, sir?" ho
asked.
Savs I, '-Don't von recollect me, Mr.
Blush? I am Jack Ballast."
Says he,"I recollect you avcII enough
and how dare you sIioav your face
here?"
Says I, "I came to sec my Jenny."
"Your Jenny?" says he. My good
fellow. Miss Jennv Biush is no match
for a common sailor before the mast;
and Avhatever might have been be
twecn you when you Avere cntitlAl to
my respect, it is all OAer now. ' You
have your choice of quietly walking
out yourself, or of being kicked out."
Any one but Jenny's lather Avould
have been floored i'or that. I just
Mooked up and doAvn and saw my lists
shut up of themselves and tried to
keen 'em so.
Says I, as cool as I could, "I don't
mean to be before the mast all of my
life sir. I expect to be Captain some
day."
"And," says old Blush, "a man with
no advantage, brought up to the sea,
might boast o' that ; but you might
have been a partner in our firm, sir.
You'might be a gentleman, aud haAc
as good a business in the dry goods
line as any man alive. And you have
chosen to be a roving rascal. And I'd
sec my daughter in her grave before I
would give her to you. Sam, show
this person out."
This was the servant just come
aboard the parlor Avitli the coal hod.
Ad Avhcn lie said that my fists Arere
beyond my control, and the last I saw
ot old Blush he Avas on his back on
the hearth rug. Then says I to the
darkey, "Touch me if you Avant to,
you rascal," and stalked out.
T saw Jenny on the sly the next day
and tried to get her to run away; but
tlie girl had a Avill of her. own and
knew her duty.
Says she, "I can't disobey my father,
jack, l love you clearly, and I'll nev
er marry any one else ; but it must be
all over between us. I don't think
that he would have relented even il
yon hadn't been so violent; but now
he never will. You'a-o done it your
self, Jack," turning quite Avhitc and
looking aAvay from me. "You liked
the sea best, and you have got it in
stead of mc."
Those were the last words she said.
I was going away Avhen 1 heard her
gi'ca little cry, andj turning, saAV her
arms stretched towards me; then I
Avent back and folded her to my bo
som, and kissed her a hundred times.
And I'm afraid I cursed the hard old
father from the bottom of my soul,
though it wasn't aloud, for mind ye,
a woman i3 a Avoman, and words good
enough for other men's cars ain't to
be spoken before her. The sight of
Jenny a3 I left her, Avith her yellow
hair blown back, under the bare tree
branches, all bright Avith icicles,
haunted me for many a long day; and,
liouirh I loA'ed the seas, there Avcre
times, when looking over the sides, I
used to fancy a voice deep down in
the waves Avhispering her words over
again :
"You've done it yourself, Jack; you
liked the sea better thanme,and you'ro
got it,"
It doesn't take long for the years to
go by, cither on the land or on the
ocean. They Avent Avith me as Avith
other folks. I got on well enough.
Before I knew I Avas second mate, then
first mate, then Captain. I suppose I
should have sailed the sea until they
buried me in it, if it hadn't been for
the first mate Tom Hamlin. I loA'ed
that fclloAV as I loved a brother, if I'd
abetter one than Charles Augustus.
At Gibraltar Hamlin got into a row
Avith some English soldiers. They'd
all been drinking together; of cours0
I took his part. They had firearms
about them, and used them on each
other. I didn't save Hamlin, for they
shot him dead ; b.it I got a couple of
bullets in me, and Avas picked up just
as near Davy Jones' locker as ever a
man Avas who didn't go into it. I got
well again, and was on the invalid
list; and just as I had laid up a handful
of money and was past 40, I made
up my mind to stay at home and take
care of Tom Hamlin's orphan children.
He had two of them, both girls. I
settled down in New York and fetch
ed them home, poor half-starved crea
tures; for the Avoman they boarded
Avith Avas giA'ou to drink, and kept
them en bread and treacle, and as they
told me 1 must, I put them in black
frocks I hey would hare felt just as
bail in red and settled dOAvn to make
myself comfortable. Soon I looked
out for a chaplain, lo pass Sunday as
it ought to be, and tlie Itev. Jucn
Tucker's church being handy, I ship
ped along with the girls, and, as I al
Avays did my duty, I never pretended
not to see the plate Avhen the steward
shoved it up our pew. Theliev.Eben
Tucker Avas a sociable n.an. He use !
to drop iu every evening and talk to
mc about my soul ; and though I can't
say but what I dropped asleep some
times, lie knew liiscluty when lie did
it. A Captain's duty is one thing, and
a chaplain's is another.
One day he spoke about poor Ham
lin's gal's. Says he : "You send them
to school, I hope." Says 1: "I haven't
done it rals are better without learn
ing, if they can read their Bibles and
cipher out the butcher's bill."
JJut lie kept on, and prettv soon 1
let him examine them. Lord love vc,
thev hardly Knew their letters. The
schooling, as well as the board, had
gone for gin.
"the poor heathen are scarcely more
benighted." said our chaolain. lie in
sists on my saying pastor, but t'other
sounds the best.
"We must find an instructress for
them, Captain."
"SHirelv , said I I wanted to do tlie
best by Tom's children that I could
"surely ; just mention a schoolmai m,
chaplain."
Said he, "Mv own arc under the care
of the person who plays the organ a
h.glily estimable lady m reduced cir
cumstances. Her school is close by
No. Broome street."
So he Avrotc (he name and address on
i rai d, and I promised to take the girls
. here.
Monday morning Ave took sail. I

was bawling out that she Avaided io

don ; want you to grow up benighted
as ihc heathen, and that's what the
chaplain calls ye now."
So 1 lugged 'etu in and made my

"Duty, ma'am," says I : "here's two

I ain't bold with women. I'm a bit
bashful before strange uus een yet.
And I hadn't looked at her. But when
1 spoke out my name she gaAo a little
scream and started back. Of course I
couldn't help looking at her then, and
she was sitting down Avith her hand
kerchief before her face.
Says I, "Beg pardon, arc you ill,
mum?"
Said she, still not looking up, "Did
vou wiy vour name Avas Captain Bal

says I.
Says she "O, Jackl don't you know
me?"
Says I, "Look up and I'll make

I saw well, it wasn't Ihc dimpled
checked girl I knew. It wasn't t girl
at all, but in a minute it was Jenny
Blush again a great deal more than
I Avas Jack Ballast.
"Jenny," says I, "oh Jenny, is it
really you?"
And then the color came into her
checks, and her eyes glittered, and she
whispered, "Oh, not before the school
Jack," for I had caught her to my
heart and kissed her.
We had not much time to palaver,
then, but I came again to her in the
evening and took her for a Avalk. And
she told me Iioav the rag shop had been
shipwrecked, and old Blush dropped

"Yes, Jack," said she.

No book since '-Uiu le Tom's Cabin"
has had the unpaialelied success that
has attended the publication in the
forai of a copiously illustrated volume
of a scries of articles that ran through
the Toledo Blade last year under the
title "Andersonville ; a story of South
ern Military Prisons." Such was the
interest aroused by the subject, and
the fascinating manner in which it
was treated that the mere announce
ment that the sketches were to be re
produced in book form-- was suflicient
to bring in orders for more than 20,000
copies befor one was printed, and
though the volume has been upon the
market now less than four months, the
sales have nearly reached 40,000, with
every prospect that that figure will be
doubled or trebled before the year is
out. Cortainly no book ever sold it
self to the extent that this one has,
because tht efforts to introduce itany
whero have been of the lighte3t, and
in much the greater part of the coun
try noue whatever havo been made.
There is a deep fascination in the
subject of Andeiaonvillw, for thatGol
gotha,iu which lie the whitening boin-8
of 13,000 gallant young men, represents
to them very much of the dearest and
costliest sacrifice of the war for the
preservation of our national unity. It
u a type, too, of its class. Its more
than hundred hecatombs of dead re
present several times that number ol
their brethren, for whom the prison
gates of Belle Isle, I)anville,Sa!isbury,
Florence, Columbia and Cahawba ali
ened only in eternity. There are few
families in the North who havo not at
least one dear rotative or friend among
these 60,000 whose sad fortune it was
to end their service for the Union by
lying down and dying for it ia a South
ern prison pen.
Hidden from the view of their
friends in the North by the impene
trable vail which the military opera
tions of the Rebels drew around the
so-called Confederacy, the people knew
next to nothing of their career or their
sufferings. Thousand. died there less
heeded even than the hundreds who
perished on the battle lieM. Grant did

and August at Andwrsonvnle. Nearly
twice an naanv died m that prison as
fell from the day that Grant crossed
the Rapidau, till he settled down into
the trenches before I'etorsburg. More
than four times as many Union dead

about that forlorn little village in
Southern Georgia than mark the course
of Sherman from Chattanooga to At

the expenditure of life which attend

which virtually crushed tho Confeder

Union soldiers died in the rear of the
Rebel lints that: were killed iu front

that stamped out ths llebellion drew

which Starvation atu-i Disease played
in the gloomy pens in the far recesses
of somber Southern forests.
The author begins with an account
f the raid marie into the enemy's coun

squad that enters the pen. Then en
sues six months of terrible suffering,
in which four out of five of those
around him die. This is ended by the
fall at Atlanta, immediately upon
which the Rebels, fearful of the safe
ty of so great a ma.ss of prisoners in
such proximity to the National lines
as the fall of that stronghold has
brought aboi't, hurry tlie bulk of them
off to other and more remote places of
confinement.
The author is first taken to SAvan

thence to Savannah again; thence t
Blackshear, where he is paroled and
sent back to Savannah again, ostensib
ly to be exchanged, but really to get
him and his companions safely past
Sherman's advancing lines and tak'e
them to Florence, S. C, where they
are kept until the Confederacy began
goiaz to pieces in March. 18G4.
Into this warp and woof of daily
history are woven numberless bits of
fascinating description of thrilling in
cidents, and even laughable episodes
for there was fun, even in that dreary
experience. Among the most thrilling
recitals to be found any where is that of
the story of the lights with and the
capture abd execution of the Raiders"
a band of murderous dsperades who
infested the prison, and six ot whom
were hanged in terrorem, and as a pu
nishment for their multifarious of
fenses. This is the only full nail ac
curate account of LL is noted episode
tht has ever been written. Many
versions have been given of this, but
they have all been written by men who
were misinformed as to the real facts
in the case. Tho author, being one of
the A'ery few of those now living who
Avere actiyely identified with tho affair
from first to last, has exceptional
knowledge of that of which ho spraks.
Letters from more than 3,(;('0 sur

Noticing an old-litnc Jehu critically
examining one- of the lead horses in
the Plothe stago recently, the reporter
slid up alongside in time to bear him
remark, sot to A'oice : "There's Dick
going to tlie devil just like all the rest,
and lie hain't been on the road six
months." An inquiry as to the cause
of Dick's a horse evil destination,
led to the development of some facts
iu regard to stage stock that may bo

Horses arc curious beasts. You can

An eccentric Englishman Las recent
