Peal gently with the erring !
Oh, do not thou forget,
However darkly stained by sin,
Ho is thy brother yet.
Hull’ of the self same heritage ;
Child of the self same bod,
He hath but stumble 1 in the path,
Thou hast in weakness trod.
Speak gently to the err-'ng : .
For is it not enough
That innocence and peace hare

Without thy censure rough ?
It sure must be a weary lot
That sin crushed heart to bear,
Ami they who share u hapgitr

Their eludings well may spare.
Speak kindly to the eiring !
Thou yet may at win them back
With holy words and tones of

From misery’s thorny track.
Forget not thou hast often sinned
And sinful yet must be—
Deal gently with the erring cne,
As 6’od has dealt with thee !

While in the harbor of Valpa
raiso, aboard the sloop-of-war
Virago, one of our midshipmen
touched me on the shoulder and
informed me that Lieutenant Bar
ilolph wanted to see me.
‘I have heard that you was soma

‘Like a vision of the delirium tre
mens, as I have heard that disease
described.’ (
t talk of delirium tremen
dons here!’ growled Randolph,
with dissatisfied air. ‘Cdrog is too
scarco, do you see,for that Tants
is touts everywhere, but blow me.
if they don’t somehow seam to
have dwindled mighty small about
Virago.’
Now we hung suspended in
raid sea. T.e air had become
somewhat impme, sa we opened
the step cock and let it out, feel
ing, a moment after, a fresh sup
ply, sent down to us through the
India-rubber ‘pipe’ or hose secur
ed into the top of the bell. Jtan
dolph was about touching the sig
nal cord to intimate our desire to
he lowered still further, when we
felt a sudden jerk, felt the bell go
ing down faster than we had antic
ipateJ, and, to our horror, realiz
ed that the rope by which the in
! strament was suspended had part
ed from the hook to which it was
| attache 1.
Away went the ‘pipe’ at tbs
same moment, and we only saved
ourselves frem instant destruction
by stopping up the aperture thus
left in the top with a thick hand
kerchief. Otherwise, the water
beneath, no longer meeting the re
sistance of the air, that element es
caping, must have filled the hell in
a brief space.
We heard the water roaring and
gurgling around us as we descend
ed ; our descent, however, became
each instant slower, until finally
the resistance of the confined air
in the bell kept us suspended
about two feet above the bottom
of the sea
mi. - - *
had by this time become almost un
bearable, not only from its being
so densely compressed, but also
from long confinement.
Terror stricken, we glanced at
each other. The eyes of Randolph
protruding from his held, looked
bioo 1 shot nod tinged vita a cer
tain green color, while his dusky
skin seemed to shrink like shrivel
ed parchment. The most start
ling change in his appearance was
the sudden apparently superannu
ated lo«k of his visage. A nian'of
50, he seemed at least thirty years
older.
Presently his teeth began to rat
tie in his head, his form was bent
almost double, he throw his arms
; around him in agony as if clutch
ing at something.
How horribly useless this pan
to.ni>re seemed to me! He want
! e l fresh air—to clutch at air !
I What a mockery !
‘.Starbuck,’ lie presently gasped,
I—I —wouldn't know you. You
look to be 50 ! You and I a e a dy
ing, (iod have mercy ou us !
What shall we <io V I could only
stare at him, stupid with despair.
The air in the bell became more
stifling, The boatswain flew to
my side, and squeezed me in mad
agony, until my bones felt as if
they would crack
‘Air ! air ! air!’ he shrieked in
my ear.
1 endeavored to speak, but only
a hoarse rattling in iny throat
obeyed my will. My brain began
to whirl. I gasped hard for
breath. A terrible oppression
was upon my lungs. The boat
swain had now released me. I
staggered against the side of our
prison ! my senses gradually seem
ed deserting me.
Through one of the glass cases
in the instrument Randolph now
pointed out to me a huge shark,
which, with led, gloating eyes,
peered down upon us, as if antici
pating our fate, and considering
how it should get at us.
Gradually, however, the eyes of
the monster seemed to my con
fused sight, to my whirling brain,
to mingle with the water ; to van
ish n a dark, red. misty cloud
that floated up ah urjuu 1 the bell
Lawrenceville, Ga., Wednesday, March 2, 1881.
My head now felt as if it would :
burst ; it sank upon my shoulder, j
Terribly oppiessed, I fell upon mv
knees, and would have fallen all
together but for the boatswain,
who now held me.
‘Star-Star buck, dying!’ w®ro
the words faintly reverberating on
my brain. Then all began to grow i
dark around me, and I knew that
I was losing consciousness. My 1
name was again shrieked into nir ;
ear. With a superhuman effort I
raised myself and looked around
rue, feeling like oue groping in the
dark. Bewildered, full of the
most agonizing pain, I became
aware that something was sway
ing up an 1 down before my sight;
up and down in the red mist
cloud, mingling with the water. I
, made another effort—a great es
fort to comprehend what it was,
this swaying thing, and 1 at last
did so : understood that it was a
1 hook attached to the end of a rope
lowered to U 3 from the Virago, so
. far above !
‘Starbuck !’ gasped the boat
swain, ‘I will dash open the lens
—this was of glass—in the top of
tlit* bell ; then you stand by to
hook it on the inside !’
I just managed to hear the words,
and they strengthened me with
wild hope, although I was so be
wildered that I could scarcely
now see the swaying hook. The
boatswain’s arm was before my
eyes. With oue powerful blow of
his huge fist, dealt with the re
mains of his great strengt’, he
shivered th* lens.
There was a great roaring sound
like thunder; it was the upward
rushing of the water into the bell
as the air escaped
ni ». • t _ i *—- x
thrust my arm through the apert
ure and drew in the hook, quickly
attaching it to the top of the in
side of the instrument.
The next moment the water
came bubbling over the head of
the boatswain and myself, and
that was the last I remembered of
what transpired in the bell.
When I recovere 1 my senses I
found myself in the steerage with
the ship’s doctor bending over
me.
‘A narrow escape,’ were his first
words.
‘Where is Randolph ?’ I exclaim
ed.
‘Here,’ answered a feeble voice,
and, rising, I beheld the boatswain
in a bunk under me.
‘lie had a narrower escape than
vou had,’ said the doctor. ‘The
thumb of his right hand was bit
ten off by a shark, which made a
spring for it just as we pulled yon
two into the cutter, after the div
ill" bell was hauled to the sur-
O
face.’
The shark, ! doubted not, was
the same one I had seen on the
outside of the bell while under
water.
‘You may both feel very thank
ful for your safety,’ continued the
doctor ; ‘and, by the way, here is
your guinea,’ putting a gold piece
into my hand and giving another
to the boatswain, ‘which the Lieu
tenant charged me to g ; ve you on
your recovery.’
Both Randolph and I thought
the guinea a hard earned one, al
though we had not succeeded in
finding the wonderful fish.

A gentleman complained to a

Willow Janes’ Cow.
Goodman Jones died at the age
of fifty, and was gathered to his
fathers, leaviug a widow about hi*
own age. About the same time
Aunt Smith died too, and her case
was parallel to Goodman Jones in
all except her sea ; we presume
she was gathered,to her mothers,
bhe left a disconsolate widower,
over who. e head' just as many
years had rolleS as the widow
Jones had ;o tinted. This was al
lowed on all hands to be an aston
hulling coincidence
All the women pitied widower
Smith, poor man, and all the men
commiserated with widow Jones,
poor woman. Widow Jones had
a large farm ; so had the widower
Smith. As to tho acres of mow
ing, tillage and wood land, each
had an eqn- 1 share ; and in child
ren Providence had blessed both
alike. “What upon airth' either
could do with these vast posses
sions alone, the old women declin
ed they could not tali. Tliiß diffi
eulty suggested a ready remedy,
and gossips did n#tlet the defunct
man and woman get cold in their
grave before they, spade up their
minds the relics should be yoked
together, an 1 the estates, heredita
ments and property, personal and
real, be held in joint proprietor
ship. Matches, they said, were
made in heaven, and that this was
there made, they considered ths
essential preparation of widow !
hood, in each case, positive proof. |
Widow Jones and neighbor
Smith were not long in hearing
w’,> it gossip was astir ; and it had
even been insinuated that each
had arrived at the conclusion
above named before anybody had
thought of them. It is certain,
that each requested the prayers of
the congregation that the bereave
meut might be sanctified, widow
er Smith looked pretty steadily
over the vail of his pew at the seat
of widow Jones ; and they. widow
•tones moved her liankerchief from
her eyes just long euough te see
ment supported himself. After
cliureh they walked beside each
other so far as the road* lay tegetli
er, and once during the next week
widower Smith paid widow Jones
a short visit of condolence.
So far so good—but visits of
condolence go eut of date, like al
marines and cannot be used as a
pretext after a certain season.—
Some other arrangement must ba
trumped uv, and widower Smith
was not long in finding it. His
wagon stopped one morning be
fore wi-lew Jones’ door, and he
gave the usual country signal that
he wanted to see somebody in the
house, by dropping the reins and
sitting double with his elbows on
his knees.
Out tripped the wi low, as lively
as a cricket, with a tremendous
white ribbon on her snow white
cap s i ood morning' was said ®n
both sides, and the widow waited
for what was further to be said.
‘Well, Madam Jones, perhaps
you don’t want to sell one of your
cows, nohow, for nothing, anyway
do you V
‘Well, there, Mr. Smith, yen
could’nt have spoken my mind
better. A poor lone woman like
mo d os not know what to do with
so many creatures ; and I shall be
glad to trade if we can fix it.’
So they adjourned to the mead
ow. Farmer Smith looked at
Roan—then at the widow; nt Brin
die—then at the widow ; at the
Downing cow—and then at the
widow again ; and so through the
whole forty.
The same call was made every
day for a week, but Farmer Smith
could not decide which cow he
wanted. At length on Saturday,
when widow Jones was in a harry
t» get through her baking for Sun
day, and had ever so ranch to d »
in the house —asull farmers wives
and widows have on Saturday—
she was a little impatient. Farm
er Smith was as irresolute as ev
er
‘That ’ere Downing is a pretty
fair creature, but ’
He stopped to look at the wid
ow's face, and then walk around
her—not the widow but the cow.
‘That We short horn Durham is
not a bad looking beast, but I
dunno ’
Another look at the widow.
‘The Downing cow I knew long
befor* the late Mr. Jones bought
her.’
Here he sighed at the allusion
to the late Mr. Jones ; she sighed
and both looked at each other.—
It was a very interesting moment.
‘Old Roan is a faithful old milch
and so ia Brindle —but I have
known better.’
A long stare succeeded this
speech ; the pause was gettihg
awkward, and at last widew Jones
broke out:
Law, Mr. Smith ! if / m the
cow you want., do say so !
The intentions of widovvi r Smith
and widow Jones were duly pub
lislied the next day, ivs is the law
and custom in M iss.icbusetta, and
as soon as they were “out publish
ed” they married.

that ever I saw in all my life, was

j reply ?
“.Father whipped me.”
Half doubting the iutirm gray
beared's sanity, for it seemed im
i possible that any one so aged
should have a living parent, I
: asked :
‘•Where is your father 1”
“In the house,” he answered
amid his tears and sobs.
Curiosity led mo in the house,
and then* I saw—-Methusaleh, as
I verily believe. The sight made
me start

“Yes,” replied the aucieut, grub

A Joke on the Wrong Party
Mr. Wagon was the victim.
His sou Jolmie is a mischievous
lad, and one day resolved to play
a trick on his brother H- arrau
ged certain attachments to that
brother’s bed, worked by cords
running to his own room, and
then want off fishing. While he
was gone, lus Li-ether was suit
away to bo absent over the night,
and a lot of company arrived at
the house. Mr. A agon gave np
his own room to them and occupi
ed the absent son’s bed. Johnny
got home late at night, and wholly
ignorant of this change of arrange
ments went to his room, which was
next to his mother's, and prepared
to perpetrate his designs upon his
brother.
The first proceeding was a haul
on a cord which ran between the
blankets and spread on his broth
er’s bed, and, being fastened at
th* top, would pull the cloths off
the bed. Mr. Wagon was comfort
ably tucked in when suddenly th*
cloths began teslip, and lie fotiml
himself uncovered. He thought
ho might have kicked them off,
and sat up and took hold of the
cloths to pull back. Meanwhile,
Jo uny had yanked another cord
which pulled the pillow off the
bed. Mr. Wagon discovered his
loss and reached for the pillow,
and when he got it, the cloths
went off again. He was much
excited at that, and again went
after the cloths and again lost his
pillow.
That time the pillow went un
der the bed and Mr. Wagon went
after it, and immediately came out
again and swore prodigiously, for
the floor was strewn with chest
nut burrs, and he had gotten into
them. He resolved to scold tire
chambermaid for leaving so many
pins on the fleor. Once more he
attemped to get the pillow, and,
as it was under, he made a frantic
dive for it, aud just then Johnny,
who was shaking with laughter,
pulled the last cord aud the whole
. bed mine down upon Mr. Wagon
and jammed Lim upon the burrs.
His frantic howl brought his
wife and friends to the rescue, and
he was fish«d out Ami the gas
was lighted and somebody discov
I the cords running to Johnny's
room. Mr Wagon at oi ce has
tened there. The lad explained
thai lie thought his brother was
in the bed. but it didn’t make any
difference. Ilis yells were mista
ken by a man sleeping half a mile
a.vay for a cry of lire, and lie
jumped out of bed bo hard that he
sprained a toe. And the next
day when Johnny Wt.nt to school
lie got spanked again because lie
wouldn’t sit down, and is now re
solved to run away from home
the first chance he can get, as this
part of the country is a mighty
discouraging region for a boy.—

Pntliion Notes
Earrings are not, either, as
much worn as they have been for
some years.
Spanish net with large balls of
chenille is the latest novelty for
evening toilets.
For dinners and evening pur
poses, a variety of surah and lace
pelerines are made.
Collars with large plaits r.re
worn. They are of surah or lawn,
with lace insertion*.
The low necked corsages are
cut in very deep points, front and
back, and filled with narrow plis
ses of lace or on founbation.
Painted satin muffs, for evening
wear, match painted collarettes,
| cuffs, fichus, hood and little reti
: cnle that swings at the waist.
The newest fichus of crtstlv lace
have wide Medici collars attached.
|
Roman sandals are the daintiest
and prettiest low *hoes now im
ported.
Many house dresses have the
corsage cut pompadour or heart
shaped, and filled in with a full
sherring of brocaded Spanish net,
arid a high ruching of the same
j lace about the neck.
All the men in the entire county
in Minnesota turned out on a wolf

was thirty six dog fights and the
capture of a fellow who hud run

I'oston is said to own the two
first horse chestnut lieis 1 luligjit
to this country. They are reputed
to be 108 years eld.
A ring does not. always denote
a year, for the blue gum tree of
Australia sheds its bark twice a
year. A tree recently hewn, that
was kuowu to bo only 18 yeass
old, showed thirty six distinct
rings of growth.
Old oaks and yews ill England
arc not unneommon. Several oaks
felled in Sherwood forest, about a
quarter es a century ago, exposed,
on being sawn up, the date 121*2
aud the mark or cipher of King
John ; and it has been calculated
and these trees must have been
several centuries old at the time
the marks wire «iade.
Berks, I’a, claim* the largest
chestnut tree in country. It mens
nres thirty eight feet four inches
in circumference; the lowest
limbs me fifteen feet from th*
ground, and measures fourteen
feet in civoninference at the base.
The top of the trees is reached
without danger by steps that are
fastened between the limbs. It is
estimated that this tree continues
about seventeen cords of wood.
It Htill yields about three bushels
of chestnuts annually.
The oldest, yew tree in England,
which is situated in Gowhurst
churchyard, was mentioned by
Aubry, in the reign of Charles 1-,
as then measuring ten yards in
circumference at a height of five
feet from the ground. It is said,
on the authority of De Candelle,
|to be 1, 450 years old. Its prev
ent growth is about thirty-three
feet. In 1820 this old tree was
I hollowed out, and acannon ba 1 was
found in the center. In 1825 a
severe storm deprived it to its up
right branches A door has been
made to the inside of the tree,
where seats are to be had fur
twelve persons comfortably.

‘You see that man just crossing
the street?’ remarked a C icagfe
man to a New Yorker whom he
was towiug around to see tin
sights.
‘Whell, that man sold popcorn
in this city for 22 years, and he is
worth 15U,0U0.’
‘Did he make it selling pop
corn?’
‘Oil, he made his pile buy
ing lake front lots.’
Pretty soon the guide, calling
his attention to a man standiug iu
the door of a bank, addedn
‘That man opened the first Bi
ble house west of New York oity.
Thirty years ago and was rat
poor. To day he runs that
bank.’
‘Did he make his n on >v sellmg
Bibles ?’
‘Oh, no ; he bought prairie land,
and held on to it.’
In the course of ten minutes a
big building was pointed out as
belonging to a man who reached
Chicago nineteeu years ago with
only 50 cents in hi* pocket. He
opened a night school and now
revellcd*in his wealth.
‘Did ho make it all teaching
school ?’ asked the New Yorker.
‘Oh, no : he went into the dray
business as socn as he had money
enough to buy ahorse.’
After several more like 'ca*e3
had been refered to, the visitor
asked;
Have you one man in Chicago
who made money in the business
he first started into?’
•Have .re ? Let’s see. Let's see.
Yes. we have. I know a man on

A country girl at a fashionable
hotel in New York noticed that all
the guest used their forks only in
eating their pie. Upon her return
home she reported the fact to the
old lady, who comforted her by
observing, “You shouldn’t mind
’em, Jemima ; it’s all because they
’re two tarnel lazy to use their
knives.”
The difference between a rich
man and a poor man is this : The
former eats when he pleases, and
the latter when he can get it.’
