But really it was trying work, in spite of the strongest determination. The sailors were soon in that pleasant state of despondent misery which succeeds a long debaueh, and, as if giving the unfortunate passengers the credit of being the cause of their snil‘erings, last no opportunity of Visiting the said suf- ferings upon their heads. But by dint of good-temper, this was all pretty well got over, in time for the rough weather we en- countered down Channel, and ti ht away across the Bay of Biscay, sufficient y bad to confine us all, sick and well, below hatches, for many a dreary day of pitching and toss- ing, with the ship’s timbers groaning and creaking to a degree that seemed to threaten falling to pieces. < A PERILOUS VOYAGE. “'e had not been ten days at sea before my mind misgave me, and I began to dread an unfortunate termination to our voyage, for matters had gone wrong from the very beginning. There had been trouble with the grow, who seemed to have an idea that per- ennial drunkenness was the proper state of man's existence ; and who, as lon as a six- pence lasted, obstinater refuse to go on board, in many cases having to be hauled from the wharf over the side like so much suspended. animation. Then when we had been warped out into the river, and were lying awaiting the captain, we found thatho had been taken suddenly and violently ill, so that a week’s delay followed, ending in a fresh appointment, and the coming?r of a new captainâ€"a man of a quiet genial aspect, whose presence seemed to augur a. termina- tion of our troubles. and he was welcomed accordingly. A \éouplc of day’s respite came at last in the sha )e of fine weather ; and in the re- action Prolhlced by the bright sunshine, and free brisk air we breathed on deck, the trou- bles of the past were forgotten. The captain still seemed all that was genial and pleasant, but there was a. flushed and heavy look in his countenance that I did not like, and before long I had another 0 'inion on the subject; for, in conversation, found that the second mate had been at the same school as myself, and together we went over the old days, asl walked the deck wiih him far into his watch. The weather turned foul once more, but this time, through the mate, I contrived to Stay on deck, when, to my surprise, I found that the greater part of the duty was shifted mm the chief mate, the captain seldom show- ing hi‘msglf‘on‘de‘cl‘i.‘ ‘ ‘ H do '3" v ' It was indeed a trying position, and for a few moments no one spoke. Then Mr. Ray seemed. to recover lumsolf, and spoke out firmljlanq qugqtly. _ 7‘ No, 1 don‘t ~:hink it‘s from cowardico,” said my friend to me, as we walked the deck that night, when the gale had somewhat moderated. “ Of course this is in confidence, " I nodded. ' “ \Vcll,” he continued, “ I don’t know what to make of him ; sometimes I think he‘s mad, and sometimes that he is given to drink- ing. How he got ap)oiuted to this ship, I can’t tell. Mr. Ray on’t say anything, but he is one of those men who think all the more ; and of course he’ll be particularly careful, lest the captain should think that, as first mate, he is jealous because the com- mand was not placed in his hands." No more was then said ; but before many days had passed we found that the man who had been entrusted with a fine vessel, a val- uable cargos and more than all, the lives to pasmn rers and crew, was one of those unfor‘ tunate beings who, not content with the en- joyment of the good things of this life, are in the habit of having intemperate outbreaks, when the impulse to drink, commencing, per- haps, with the stimulants taken in some time of peril, grows perfectly uncontrollable, and culminates at length in one of those horrible fits of mania. known as delirium tremens. “I’ve; locked him in,” said fiay, for he’s not fit to come on deck. But get help, for we mgst secure 13in) _and strap h_i}n intp a_ cot._” “ Don’t preach, man,” said Ray, angrily, “ but come along. New, look here,” he whispered, as We descended the stairs, “as soon asI open the door all step quietly in to ether. He’ll dash at us the same as he di at me a while ago, but he can only tackle one man at a time, so that while he is engaged the others must secure him.” 7 \V'e had hardly ncrved ourselves for our task, and the mate was holdin up his hand as a signal as he unlocked the 001', when we were staggered by the sharp report of a pistol simultaneous with which there was a (lull thud close by my ear, and I started back A And‘érson fetched the old sailor, who came rolling up, turning the lump of tobacco inhis mouth, and. from his remark it was evident that he had been enlightened upon the busi- ness in hand. The days lided slowly by with varying weather. T 10 hot latitudes were reached. We were seated one evening watching the last glow of the setting sun, when Anderson, the second mate, made the remark that he thought a. change was coming ; and then our .tontion was taken up by Mr. Bay passing C1039 by us, and descending as if to the cap- tain’s cabin. “ How has he been today ‘5" I said, as Mr. Ray disappqgred. “ WorBe than ever," was the reply. “ If I were Ray, I‘d make a prisoner of him, and take sole command. He‘d be quite justified in so doing.” Further conversation was cut short by the re-ap earance of the mate, who beckoned hasti y to my companion. In effect, as he ceased Speaking, there came from below the sound of breaking chairs, smashing glass, and a; noise as of some one leaping from side to Sula of the cabin, fol- lowed by a trexnohdous battefhlg at the door. A short consultation was held, and then it was- decided to call one of the sailors, a sturdy, uiet man, and to do all as quietly as possib 0, so as not to alarm the rest of the passengers and crew. ” Something wrong l” he exclaimed, as he leaped to his feet, and quite as quickly I fol- lowegi him _to the hatqhwgly. “ Good haavens, Anderson 1" exclaimed Mr. Ray, ” what’s to be done ‘2 H e’s raving mad.” “ Have you no medicines ‘3“ I said. “ Medicines? Yes; but how are we to deal with a man in that state ? Just listen.” ” Ah,” he growled, “ what a. thing it is as any one will 0 on wasting precious Liquors, and turning b essings into posions ! I knowed this would be the end on it.” lbh the know ledge that a bnljct had just passed through the cabin door, and whistled by my head. Then came a loud harsh laugh, followed by a. couple more pistol shots, both of which assed through the panel of the door. >_ I need hardly say that we beat a retreat '0 shéuld Enly be casting away our BY (J. MANVILLE PENN STRANDED lives if we were to go in now. The only plan I can suggest is to watch him through the skylight, {mt} gq i1} when l_10 is ($189113). “Mischief I“ said the old sailor, (lrily. “\Vell, I dunno; but what if he keep on {)opping off that revolver thing. \Ve shall )6 having a bullet in anmngst the“ powder, and :1 blowmp." " Powder 1” I said. “ Yes, in the magazine.“ “ Is there powder on board?!" I said, with a strange tremor in my voice, as I turned to Anderson. “ Yes, a heavy lot of it," 113 said huskin ; and as he spoke his eyes glanced involuntar- ily ‘in the digection 9f the hoata. Another shot made us all start ; and now passengers and crew began to collect, eagerly asking what was wrongiquestions, though, which, in dread of a rush at the boats, we nrhore to answer. “ I don’t think he can do any mischief in the meantime,” I said, “but we must seize 111m soon.” The p91 1E, 'lmngh, was indeed great, for, in one small cabin, especially strengthened for its reception, a large quantity of powder was stored, and if one bullet happened to pass through, the chances were that the heat inâ€" volved in its passage thraugh would explode it all and in a moment the whole vessel would be blown to atoms. There were two courses open to us, to seize the boats at once and push OFF, 01- to make a bold and manly effort to subdue the madman, in whose hands our lives seemed now to hang. As he spoke we heard the cabin door un- locked, then the rattling of keys, and the crashing of a door, when Ray cautiously peered down the hatch, and as he kneeled their gazing down, l could see a. tremor run- ning through his whole frame, and when at last he turned to us, his voice was so husky as to he almost inaudible when he said : “ He’s got into the powder-room." I shall never forget his countenance as he gased up at us with his eyes fixedâ€"~rigid to a degree. For a few moments horror and the dread of impending death seemed to have robbed him of all power. Then he sprang up the man once more. “ Quick 2" he exclaimed : for your lives I" Then, leading the way, he dashed down the cabin stairs, We following him, but only to find our progress arrested by the closed door, which resisted all our efforts. “ Listen I" whispered Ray, and then he continued : “ Good heavens, if he were to lire now l" The same feeling must have pervaded all our breasts, as we stood and looked at one another, and then I saw the old sailor wet the palms of his hands and rub them gently to- gether. “Could we not shoot down throu 7h the skylight ‘i” said the chief mate ; and t 101], as if blushing at his own proposition, he added hastin ; “ No; no, that would be like mur- der. \Ve must dash in on him at all risks. But what’s that 2’ Look out 3 He‘s coming on deck !” “ “'0 must run in on him, Master Ray,” he said. The next moment there was a sound which seemed to make every nerve in my body thrill, and l frankly own that had my limbs obeyed my will, 1 should have rushed on deck, seized a. coop or grating, and leaped over the side, for plainly to he heard came a. sharp, crackling noise, and it wanted not the mate's word to enlighten us as he hissed out : “ lmeifers." “ Here, quiek, for (End’s sake !” exclaimed Anderson. “ Look here, we are forcing the wrong way at the door." u a He dragged at it, but in vain, for a. few minutes, till, running on deck, the old sailor returned in an instant with a couple of mar- lineâ€"spikes, which were inserted just as we once more heard the crackle of a match. “ Quick ! it‘s for d ur life,” cried Ray. And the door crashed, gave way, and flew open, to reveal to us standing, perfectly 1111» moved by our forcible entry, the ca )tuiu, holding a lighted s lint to an l1‘()ll-l)()llll(l chest, which was alloady blackened and charred at the edge. For a few moments we could none of us stir, It seemed as if, at the slightest motion on our part, the chestfiwhich we afterwzmls learned was filled with cartridges for the sup- of one of the petty armies engaged in the l’amguyan war" would explode, followed by the other chests and kegs piled around. Then came the captain‘u low, chuckling laugh, and we hea “(1 him my : “ This will drive you nut, than, strong as; you are.H The captain was not stunned, though, and directly after a. fearful struggle took place amid these kegs, my part; being confined to the security of the match-box, which I tore from his hand, trembling as I did so, lest it should ex lode. Then came. the 10nd, punt- ing breat ing of the wretched man, us, hold down by four strong men, he bowed his body up again and again with a powor that was was almost superhuman. But the danger was now passed, and, without losing a moment, We dragged him out into hi“ own cabin. \Vater was abun- dantly applied to ths charred side of the box, and M 1-. Ray‘s first act was to make the car- penter screw up the door in a \‘ay that re- stored confidence as every screw was driven in. I say his first act, for his second was to sit down on the deck and cover his face with his hands, and remain in in that position fer fully half an hour. Then, with a gegture of impatience, he threw down the hurn’t out splint, took a fresh match from the box he held, and was about to strike it, when, with a, cry that did not sound human, Anderson leaped upon him, and with one tremendous blow struck him down, trampling on him the next moment as he applieu :21; lips to the Charred and black- ened edgc .2 LllO chest Constant watching, binding, and the use of potent druga, placed the captain out of the reach of means to place us again in peril. But though a. breeze sprung up next day, and our well-managed ship prosperoualy finished her voyage, I never laid down to sleep the rest of the time without a shudder, and never once dropped off without a start from a hor- rible dream of seeing the captain, match-box in hand, applying a light to the edge of the cartridge-chest. A correspondent of Appleton’sJoz:r72al writ- ing of excavations at Pompeii says :7Amoné‘r “w most interesting of the objects found rc« (-ntly are two skeletons. one of a somewhat elderly man, the other of a woman. They were found in the Via Stabla among the ashes of the last eruption, evidently overtaken in their flight and buried among the Cinders. According to the usual method employed to preserve the external appearance of objects, liquid plaster was poured into the cavity, which, serving as a mould, afacâ€"sz'milz‘e of the forms was obtained ! and thus perfectly pre- served, the statue-like bodies were placed in glass cases in the Pompeii Museum. \Vhile appreciating all the horrors of such a death, and the suffering endured, as shown by the position of the limbs, one cannot but imagine what would have been the astonishment of that man and woman had some prophet in- formed them that eighteen hundred years after their death their forms, and even as much of their garments as were not consumed in the eruption, would be placed in a museum for inspection by a multitude of sight~seers, some from lands the existence of which they had never dreamed of. The poor woman is lying on her face, and oven the form of her hair, put up behind, is seen. ()nc arm shields her forehead, and she is supported by the other. Her stony limbs are well formed, and traces of a garment are seen passing in folds around her. The man, although placed on back in the exhibition, when found was turned on his side. One arm rests on his hip ; the other is uplifted. The face is some- what distorted, but massive and smoothly shaven. Even the form of the fastening of the sandals around the ankle, and of the long button higher up on the leg to hold them, is clearly seen. The limbs are partly drawn up. The skeleton of a tolerably large dog, also recently found, is in the Museum at Pompeii, his whole form preserved in plas- ter, in the same manner as those just men» tionod. He is lying on his back, writhing in suffering, biting his hind leg. The rings in his collar are dunly seen. ' Eighteen Hundred Years After Death. “ The best practical statement I have met spout ventilation,” says Colonel \Varing in the last Atlantic, “ was contained in the re- mark of a mining engineer in Pennsylvania, : ‘Air is like a rope; you can pull it better than you can push it.’ All mechanical ap« plianees for pushing air into a room or a house are disappointing. “'11th we need to do is to pull out the vitiated air already in the room ; the fresh supply Will take care of itself if means for its admission are provided, It has been usual to withdraw the air through openings near the ceiling, that is, to carry off the warmer and therefore lighter portions, leaving the colder strata at the bottom of the room, with their gradual accumulation of cooled carbonic acid undisturbed. Much the better plan would be to draw this lower air out from a point near the floor, allowing the upper and warmer portions to descend and take its place. An open fire, with a large chimney throat, is the best ventilator for any room ; the one half or two thirds of the heat carried up the chimney is the price paid for immunity from disease ; and large though this seems, from its daily draft 011 the wood pile or coal bin, it is trifling when compared with doctors‘ bills and the 1055,; or strength and efficiency that invariably result from living in unventilated apartments. \Vhat we desire in a. carpet is something that shall be to our arlor what a well-kept lawnis to our roun a, something so complete in its elf, so in iarxnony with its surroundings, that we shall scarcely notice it, though always agreeably conscious of its presence. For such 2L carpet we would choose but one color in two or more shades, and no set figure save an arabesqued border, if the room is large enough to admit it. The delicate trau- ery of wood and sea-mosses forms the most pleasing of designs, and may be of any color that will harmonize with the walls and fur- niture of the rooms. Especially beautiful are the shaded erimsons of the sea-mosses found on rocky tropical coasts ; the many- flccked browns and greys of those found on the Atlantic shores ; the softly-blendin drabs of the Sh-Uulleil white mosses which e< ge the w mtherhtnined rocks in New En land sheep pastures ; and the rich, dark and ight green of the dewy mosses which fringe mountain banks, or carpet the cool (lamp recesses of oak or maple groves. If more distinctness of figure is desired, let us go no further than the pattern furnished us by the carpet of the pine woods, where the creeping feathery prince‘s pine mingles with the small, dark, glossy leaves of the Wintergreen and the clieckerberry, and the lighter green plumes of lowâ€"grmving delicate ferns. This sort of carpet will give us something to look at, if we choose, without obtrudin upon any of us those startling colors whic 1 (as the keen French phrase has it) “ swear at each other " in so many parlors around us. A recent number of a scientific journal, speaking of the relative proportion of the sexes in the human race, says Max Adeler, declares that for every one hundred and fifty men that come into the world one hundred and seventy-two one hundredths are women born I do not dispute those figures. I only ask for light. It appears, according to this, that there are some women who are only seventy-two one hundredths of women. \Vhat tho remaining twenty-eight one hun- dredths are 1 cannot imagine. Now, what I want to know is this: If a woman of this kind marries a one hundred man, and has 3. daughter, will the daughter be an eighty- four one hundredth uoman or a ninetyrix one hundredth woman. And what will be the exact relation between such a daughter and a seventy-six one hundredth aunt and her eighty-seventh one hundredth daughter, especially if the eighty-seventh one hun- dredth girls marry the brother, of the ninety- six one hundredth girl, and so become her ninety-eight one hundredth first cousin, and, also, her ninety‘five one hundredth sisterâ€"in» law, the aforesaid seventy-six one hundredth aunt becoming also the eighty-nine one hun» dredth nephew, will the ~v-theâ€"â€". Let me see. \Vhere am 1? It is an awinl subject to grapple with. Oh, yes 3 I say if the sev- enty-six one hundredth anntâ€"«â€". But no. The question can’t be solved in any such way as this. Iwill give it up. The only way to get at it will be to do the sum in el- gebra somehow, making the daughter x, the aunt y, the fiirst cousin 3, and the mother- in-law h. Then, it seems to me, if you mul- tiply the aunt by the daughter, and divide the first cousin by the mother-in-law, in some way or other, or else extract the square root of the cousin and snbstract the result from the aunt, keeping the daughter as a common denominator, and at the same time make a. decimal fraction of the mother-in» law, perhaps the result might be ml. isfactory. But I am not certain, I am 1”";- lil mothe- maties. I wish that Professor Tyndall would subject it to a chemical analysis. \V hen railways on land were first talked of the projectors Were credited with being visionary enthusiasts. ‘Vhat then is likely to be thought of those who seriously propose to have railways under the sea? A subma- rine carriage, of a. most ingenious construc- tion, has recently been invented in Paris to cross the channel, and for navigating deep rivers and canals. The carriage is of galvan- ized iron, and is hermetically sealed. As its lightness, compared with the surrounding water, would cause it at once to rise to the surface, it is attached to a heavy eightâ€" wheeled truck, which runs on a line of rails laid down under the ocean. It is not fasten- ed so securely, however, but that in the event of an accident it could be at once de- tached and allowed to ascend to the open air, when it would be easy to make for the near- est port. The motive power is supplied by two screws driven by means of compressed air. An enormous quantity of air is distrib- uted through the interior in numerous pipes, for the benefit of the crew and passengers. We might enter still farther into details and describe the electric light at the bows, which is to illuminate both the road and the interi- or of the vessel ; the entrance for the passen- gers, hermetically sealed when all are aboard; the strong glass windows, out of which one may see the marvels of the deep; the raft carried on the roof, and the divers’ chamber at the stem. In Deckertown the pastor of the church being absent the divine who filled his place did not know about a difficulty in the choir. He gave out his hymn selected for the open- ing, and read it through. There was no inu- sical resposevno sound of praiseâ€"from the choir or congregation. After a moment’s em- barrassing silence, a. brother arose, and walk- ing up to the pulpit whispered in the preach- er’s ear. The preacher nodded his head and smiled. He thought the brother had said the wrong hymn had been read, BO he turned the leaves again and ave out another. It was a long one, an he read it through, closing with, “ Please omit one stanza." A gland silence in the congregation again. The preacher looked uneasy, was about to give out another hymn,when another brother :0er and spokn from the gallery :# “You see, 0111 at“ Au busted. h‘ome of 'em thought tho bass sung too low, and some of ’em thought the spranny was too high, and others thought we ought to have a better alto, and there wasn‘t many that liked the tenor, and so the rest 0t mad, and there won’t be any singin’ tOâ€"t ay.” MR.
