It Wile my fortune to live for some mates and five sailorsâ€"no compass and no navigator." 'Ihe Vega launched a boat and the mate and two hands went in her. They found only eight men on board, most of whom were incapable of work through being in- jured. The story told was that the master the first and second mates, the carpenter, and four seamen had been washed over- board and were drowned, and that one of the remaining crew had his leg broken, that several others were injured, that some oi the sails and all of the boats were lost, that all the compasses (except a small one which was out of order) were destroyed, that the starboard light was destroyed, that the cabins were full of water, and the contents (including medicine chest, still in the head piece.

A big iron bolt was rivetted perpendicularly to the top of the head piece and appeared to have been run through a beam. A more inhuman and horrible death than one in this cage cannot be imagined. The accepted theory is that this iron jacket contained the skeleton of one blari- uel, a negro slave, who, about I770 belong- ed to a family of Stewarts, and who was executed in an unusual mom or.

The doctor styles his machine a velocipede, on account of its softness and mode of locomo- tion.

The latter superintend “stations” in every part of the city where Victims of accidents receive preliminary treatment at the hands of physicians. A velocipede ambulance is and several children. The archives of the County Court for King George County, Va., contain the record of his trial, con- viction and sentence to death. According to tradition, the slave holders of the county were so infuriated that they determined to make of Manuel an example for future rebellious and violent slaves. So Manuel, instead of being hanged, was bound in an iron jacket, or case, so that he could not move arms or feet, and in this condition some extent with the thriftiness of the plant. trated by fever, and beyond making an occasional entry in the log book he was unable either to take his watch or to usist in directing the ship on her course.

Hugh Kennedy, the ssilmaker, was the only person beside“ Shotten who had the remotest idea of the duties of an officer of sufficient confidence to undertake the guidance of the bark while Mr. Shotten snatched a few hours’ rest from his long and weary duties. One of the seamen was transferred to the poop deck, merely for the purposo of taking watch occasionally. His knowledge of navigation ‘was of the most rudimentary character, and the task of sailing the ship to Melbourne seemed hopeless, but Mr. Shotten never lost heart. Fortunately the winds experienced Were not of very considerable force. While there were no prospects of a hard blow, Mr. Shotten clapped on as much sail as could induce his inert, somewhat refractor- ily inclined crew to spread to the favoring breezes. ' In the Indian Ocean Daniel Sheehan, the cook, took sick and died. He was the sixth and last victim of the passage. Mr. Shotten then attempted to induce the crew to clean and overhaul the ship and get her in good condition by the time she reached her destination. All his efiorts were of no avail. Beyond assisting to sail the ship they would not lend a hand to do more than was absolutely necessary to secure the safe passage of the vessel to port. A day or two after passing Cape Leeuwinâ€"famous cape of stormsâ€"the Trafalgar was overtaken by a gale, start- ing from the northwest and setting in the West. There was only one way, in Mr. Shotten's Aside from the sand form, all parts of the poison ivy are poisonous at all seasons, the root being by far the most virulent of all.

There he made a bed up on the carpenter’s bench and took his meals in the galley. Having repaired the sails, etc., and attend- ed to the wounds of the injured, the Montgomery Castle followed on again after the Vega, the weather all the time being very bad and causing both vessels to roll heavily and ship large quantities of water. During all this time the Vega kept as much as possible in sight of the Montgom- ery Castle and signalled to her the courses and position every day at noon. On February ‘23, both vessels came to anchor in Fayal roads. The Yoga, it may be added, earned for her owners and crew the very nice sum of $5,250 for salvage. Of this $2,250 went to the owners? the mate, who took charge sf the Montgomery Castle, got $1,000 ; the master, who had extra labors to perform, received $1,000: the sailor (Nordling), who steered the Montgomery Castle, $250, and $750 was divided between the crew,the other seamen who went on the boat with the mate and Nordling having an extra share. Its construction is as follows : A litter without shafts, supported by three wheels with rubber tires, one in front and two behind, the whole being propelled and driven by BICYCLES FORE AND AFT. And He Was Sold. The occupant of the first directs the vehicle and rings the bell to warn other wheelrnen and vehicles. The man aft follows suit. The machine moves very swiftly, and up to date not a single accident has been recorded. The litter has a detachable cover of white duck, with windows at the sides. It is well ventilated and at night is lit by electricity. If the person transported wants to attract the attention of the bicyclists he rings an electric bell. The litter can be taken off the Wheels and carried into the house or to the spot where the sick person awaits it. Although the Emperor is opposed to the bicycle in the army, he is very favorably inclined towards the velocipede ambulance, which has proved an immense success, especially as it can be taken to places which would not admit the passage of a wagon. At the fall manoeuvres the ambulance velocipede will be tried. The ambulance physician usually rides on the wheel behind, the leader being an athletic young man capable of bearing the burden of the transport. hem , Twenty or more years before Queen saleswomw.

The queer contrivance was known as the “velociman- ipede " and was invented by Mr. Birch, a In this condition it is drawn to the ham, where the slowly evaporated poison is absorbed by the surrounding hay, which thus becomes, in a. degree, as poisonous as the ivy itself. Through this means I have known men severely poisoned while taking out the hay in \Vinter. It is owrng to this volatilization of the juices that smoke of burning ivy or of brush heap containing it ranks next to the root in the virulence of its poison. Though the effects of ivy are generally a harmless but troublesome irritation, it has been known to prove fatal in some very severe cases, and susceptibili‘ty to its influence is by no means desirable, though the irritation is said to he sometimes slightly beneficial in cases of rheumatism. Some persons are never adected by the poison, but each attack renders its victim more susceptible, and some are even affect- ed at t rues by air that has blown over ivy, especially if the plant has been recently out. 3 When boys, my brother and I have A NIGHT IN THE FORETOP OFA WRECKED VESSEL.

The ship was settling down fast, nd every sea now swept right over us, an we saw that very soon there would be nothing left but for us to take to the rigging. “I don’t mean to say that I thought at this time that there was any chance of my life being saved, but a fancy prompted me to have a good shirt or two to my back ; so I put on two new shirts and all my shore- going toga. That cutting, biting. northeast wind penetrated to our very marrow, and by the time I got into the top my hands were so numbed that I could scarcely feel, so that I had some difficulty in lashing my- self to the mast. There we sat, ten poor. helpless creatures, almost in a state of stupor, but though we were half frozen, there was none of us so paralyzed but that we could fully realize the horrors that sur- rounded us. The remainder of the crew, together with Capt. Frazer, Mr. Lloyd, the mute, Mr. Frazer, the second mate, who was the Captain’s brother, and a fine young fellow whose name I do not remember â€"in all seventeen in numberâ€"â€"took to the mizzenmast, and we could see them lashing themselves on the rigging. ' “ When the moon sliune out there was just light enough to show the three gaunt masts sticking up out of the water. Every sea that swept over us made the riiainmast rock and oscillate so that every minute I expected it would go by the board. It made me cringe again every time it lurched to leeward, because the chances were that when it did so one of the other masts would shortened as the gale rose, and the ship scudded before the storm for several hours under the two lower topsails and the fore- sail. Before sail could be shortened the top- sails and the main lower topSail were blown clean cut of the melt ropes. As soon as the Wind moderated and the sea fell, the ship srood in toward the Victorian coast, and eventually made the Heads, where the trouble of her young commander came to an end. INSTANCES OF WOMEN SAILING SHIPS. It is not often that a ship has been in charge of a woman. The wife of the Cap- tain of the Jefferson Bord.n took her husband’s watch occasionally when the vessel was short handed after the mutiny and murder of the officers. In 1869 the ship Denmark was broughtinto port by the Captain's wire, the Captain himself being laid up and incapable of doing anything except give advrce. Another striking illus- tration of woman's capabilities in the sea- faring line is afforded by the case of the bark Rebecca Crowell, which left New York for Bueuos Ayres, but became disc abled during a severe gale three days after leaving. Several of the spars and sails were carried away, and the Captain and first mate were injured to such an extent that they were confined to their berths the rest of the voyage and rendered unfit to manage the vessel. There was no other person on board who understood navigation except the Captain‘s wife, and she undertook the task of con- Strange Case 0!
