The Captan’s Pledge.
One evening, a party of old snip-
maslers met at a sueial supper. Afei
lie clotb was removed, and the wine
oegan lo circulate freely, some of th.
jider captains commenced spinning
yarns about their own adventures
sea. Among the number was Captain
Suiter as Hue a man as ever trod a
leek. It was observed that be drank
nothing but water; and when it be
came Ins turn to entertain the com^an)
vith a story he began as follows.
‘Well, shipmates, to show you wh)
I don’t find can’t drink with you, so
that yoa won’t take my refusal as a
mark of coldness or disrespect-. I will
[give you a chapter from the story of!
ny early sailor life. It is an important
[chapter, too ; for on the incideut I am
ibout to relate, the whole of my sub-
quent manhood was built.
T was very young when I first wen
0 sea, and at the age of fourteen I
[considered myseif quite a sailor. W hen
was eighteen I was shipped on board
tn East Indiaman for a long voyng
There were sin of us on board of abuu
he same age, and we had about tht
arne duties to perform. The ship—
theol i L,dy Duulop—was a large one,j
And our crew was large in proportion,
there were fifty two told We ‘boys,’j
Cts we were called messed together, and
u all other respects, were separate from[
he icst of the erew t just as much at
he offici
noble
;:d generous, cut not vory strict.
Now we boys had learned, in tin
[course i f our travels, to drink our grog
is well as any sailors. W nett we coulu
gel on shore we would invariably in
dulge in our cups and not unlrcquenilj
would we come off in a state anything
uui sober. I said ‘we’ but there was one
of our number, who could not be iu-
Jueed to touch a drop of anything in—j
t'xicating. His name was John W htteJ
Now Jack not only refiairied!
from drinking himself, but he ussd
[sometimes to ask us to let the stufl alone.|
ie gave that job up, however, for w
made such sport of him that lie was
lad to let us alone. Rut- our captai
ad sharp eyes, and it was not long be
tore he began to show Jack luvois]
which he did not show to us. He would
often take him on shore with him it
impend the night, and such things as that,I
1 hut wasn’t all. lie ieart.ed faster ihai
wc did; he was a better sailor, and hau
earned mo>e ol navigation.
Ji got so at' ‘length t>.at JacK was
lied upon to taicc the deck sometime
when the officers were busy: and in
ed to work out the reckoning at nooi
jas regularly as did the captain. Yet
;;ck was in our incss, and he was i
[constant eyesore. We saw that he wa
reaching rapidly ahead of us in ever}
uso-iui particular, and yet vve wouldn i
>pcn our eyes. We were euviuus of]
ins good fortune, as we called it, anu
usee to seize every opportuu.ty to lease
mm. But he never got angry in return.j
tic sometimes would laugh at us, and
jut others he would so feelingly ciudi
:. that we wouid remain sileut for
lale. ,
‘At length the idea entered our heade:
hat Jack should drink with us. W
talked the matter over in the mess,
lale Jack was absent, and we tnutu-
ry is short. In my earliest childhood I
never knew what it was to have a hap
py home. My lather was a drunkard
[Ouec he had been a good man and a
oood husband, but ruin ruined, all hi
manhood and made a brute cf lain. I
can remember how cold and cheerless
the winter used to be. We Bad, n<
fire—no food—-7)0 01011168—no joy-=-no|
milling — nothing but misery. Q!
now my mother paryed to God for her
usband, and I, who could but jusi
prattle, learned to pray too.
‘When I grew older I had to go na
,nd beg for bread, Al.l cold and shiv^l
ring, I waued through the deep snow
with rny clothes in tatters and my freez
feet almost bare. A nd I saw other
jctaldren of my own age dressed warm
Did comfortable, and I knew they
were nappy, for they laughed and sang
as they bounded along toward school.
These boys had sober fathers I knew
hat their fathers were no better than
nine had been.once; for rny motliei
•iad told me how noble my father could
be if rum were notin his way.
‘Time passed on and 1 was eight
years old, and those eight years had
jeen years of such sorro w and suffer-
ng as I pray Gud I may never again
x perieiice. At length, one cold morn-
ug, in the dead of winter, ir.y fathei
was not at home. He had not been at|
home through the night. My inotiiei
-ent tne to me tavern to see if I could
not find him. I had gone half the way
when I saw something in the snow bv

‘Jack W lute is now one of the best
nasters in the world, and I belieVe the
estofour party are still living, honored

we all met, the whole six of 11s, at din-
ler again, and not one of us had brok
en that pledge which we made in Ihe
mid at Rio. We had ailietuek to the
ea, and were then commanders of good

know why I can’t drink with yon, and,
as I said at first, will not take my re
fusal as a mark of disrespect or want

Siam and the East.
BY DR L. B. LANE.
The Siamese bow.
The Siamese have a wood that is.
solid and at the same time very springy.
[Of this they manufacture bows that
they use with great effect, as occasion
nay require. They use no arrows bs
s the custom with most archers, but
nstead of these, ball?. These ‘ are
nade of clay, about one inch in diame
er, and then baked.. When done they
;e n as bard as marbles. The bow
_as two strings, united in the center
with a net—wpi k cup. Also at - the
-enter of the bow, on tbe inside, a
ihort piece is cunningly lashed, in' dr
ier that when the ball is shot;’ by a
:ittle turn of the bow, the hand mayt
be saved from being-struck.
While at tbe hou^e of one the ‘ox-
'perts’ I asked him to take his bow aiud
balls and show me just how the thing,
watdone. He seemed pleased with
the invitation, and took down his bow,
