Well, .Sawbones,” be iegan, (I was
the doctoi), “I hate pala\ ar ; so here
goes. I was once ma c ot a coolie-
ship. lam not going D speak of the
coolie trade at this time; but its^about
tht coolies that tlio'sUry is. I’m not
going to enter into lin e or place ; but
stitlicc it that our ship was a good one,
and that wo were on a voyage with a
righT heavy load or coolies. We were
very lightly packed, I can tell you, and
no mistake. Wei!, wc had the black-
ics on deck preity much, and
all we could to veniilale and purify
them ; and as ycl vo had no disorder
among them—all -vas going pielly
well.
“The skipper Was much engaged lie-
low—lie was one ol the kind that be
lieve in keeping tbvi steam up—high-
pressure, you know. In fact, 1 had
command ; the ‘oil man’ never inter
fered. Doctor, l*ys arc the greatest
nuisance and torment that you cau
have, afloat or ashore—no mistake.—
We liad two boys. They were little
dwarfish chits, hut as cunuiog and
tricky as young apes. It took us all
our time to lock after those boy
Sometimes they fought—sometimes
they leagued in mischief: but if they
were out of sight, you might he sure
they were doing no good. Gcor;
was the name of one, Harry that
the other. Ti c whi le of the ship w;
against them, ami they against the
\vliolc ship. It was a game, and the
little wretcho played well. Of course,
they were Gnashed from time to time,
but that sccrncd to act ouly as a stim
ulant.
“Well, one day the coolies got up a
great affair—at least, it was a great
affair to tlirm, poor creatures. They
were to giw a sort of offering to tin '
god—or ?it icast one ot them. Th
wanted to ho in his good books, y
sec, and so they made him this gift.—
I don't kne wall that was in the bundle,
but I think there was rice, and 1 knm
that there was money. The offorin;
was lixcri in the truck of the main
mast—the truck, you knotV. is the but
ton affair at the very point of the
mast. Well, it was fastened up du
ring ih< day, ami the sigu was, that if
the god came in the night and took
away ti e bundle, lie was well pleased,
ami nn ant to Mess their voyage. I
was fa>tcued nil right, and they set ;
watch if tlu-ir own to keep a tight ey
to the Oumilc, so that they might se
the god swoop down and carry it away.
There was also a group of coolies at
the shrouds to see. ihnt there was no
unhallowed interference by the ship’s
people.
Well, evening slia'dcd into night,
and a deuced dark night it was too—
heavy masses of cloud scudding across
a sombre sky : not bad weather, hut
rather threatening, you know. I
on watch, feeling rather anxious
how the night might turn out. Our
doctor, a native, catuc to my side.—
He was a very intelligent fellow, I can
tell you, and well educated. lie didn
believe in the god coming down and
taking away the bundle ; hut he
wa.-u'i a fool to express his mind be
fore the coolies. They are rather dan
gerous cattle at times. You read now
aiul again of their risiqg in mutiny,
killing the ollicers ami crew, aye, even
setting fire to the ship, and playing
the deuce generally. Coolies arc uoi
lo be trillcs with, especially when there
is a great ciowd of them. Of course,
they are ignorant and superstition*,
and such arc always dangerous. Life
with such people is at a discount, and
no mistake. Well, the doctor and 1
were devising plans for ventilating
the ship by kindling fires, etc., and so
the watch passed. When eight bells
struck at midnight, I turned in as
soon as I was relieved. It seemed
scarcely a minute before I heard
hells strike again, aud 1 was forced to
know that it was lour o’clock in* the
morning, aud time for tnc to he on
deck to take my watch. The
said that the wind had uot risen high
er than when 1 went below, hut that
the night had been intensely dark.
^vas so at tlio time he *|»oke. I <
menced to'pace to ami fro—wishing
heartily that iuy wi tch was over—and, j
as time passed, noticing the gradual
difimion of the uncertain light of ear
ly morning.
Suddenly my blood was fairly
frozen in nir veins by a devilish Ui»-
roan* I thought at first that it was
mutiny—then lire. While I was com
posing my mind for action, tic
screaming was renewed tenfold.—
(\*oliea streamed ami crawled on de -k
doxfcw. They were all violently
.•ited, but die] not seem disjmsed to
do any mischief. I sent one of tho
hands to nseertoiu what was the row,
before I gave my command : but 1k*-
foie lie returncil, the native doctor
sprang to my side with a glassv terror-
stricken eye and trembling limbs.—
Mr. Topsal'iAys he, ‘our lives are
danger f Wfio could do it ? Yon must j
t very prudently, Mr. Topsal, or this
if£y, oh, won’t 1!'
us hunt them up,’ said the
o.we set out for the forecastle.—
We - Entered noiselessly, and crept in
the direction of tlic hoys’ bunks; At
first there seemed nothing unusual.—
The lamps swung and creaked, the
timbers, the water went thud, thud,
on the ship's hows. Wc ciawied
nearer. We held our breath. Hush?
W*yU sound was that? Was it not
the chinking of money? O horror!
“The doctor and I pinched each
other black and blue, and shuddered.
Wo crawled still ucarcr. We «jot be
hind a coil of rope aud some barrels.
We pcepbd into the corner where the
two young scapegraces dwelt. Yes,
the ractalic sound proceeded from
tluitdircction. Wc sti etched our
necks. There before our eyes sat
the two little creatures, with the bun-
dividing the spoil. Sucl. » w. v ». uu -
tion of daring and tolly almost made
commit ourselves. But wo watched
our chances, aud pounced or. them,
and clapped our bands on their
mouths. In ac instant wc had them
tied up and gagged. Tlic contents of
the bundle we quietly concealed about
our persons, and dropped overboard
when wc went aft. Wo set a watch
over the hoys, aud I read them a les
son in whispers, which put the terror
of death on them. It was a dark
lit, you know; they had dimed up
the sluy unnoticed anil taken the bundle!
“Ah! doctor, i'll never forget that
voyage. I was forever thinking that
the blackics were rising,or that the_
had fired the -hip, or that they were
conspiring. On deck, I walked on
noodles and pins —every sound startled
me. I had taken all po-sihlc prccau
tinus, had my arms ready, &c.; hut it
would have been madnc*s to hav
thought of resistance. I had all the
burden on my own shouldeis, for
never told the skipper, aud the Sec
otid* did not seem to understand tin
affair nor to appreciate our danger.—
But the native doctor did; aud assist

HONE.
A singular caseofauicide took place
l Wyandotte street, - near Four
teenth, on Thursday night It was an
instance where no cause could be as
signed for the terrible act other than
pure downright ennui. A young lady,
prepossessing, intelligent anti highly
educated, surrounded by abclcvtd aud
loving father, mother, brother and
sister, and a good comfortable home,
went quietly and systematically to
work and took her own life, aud went
from this world unhidden, uncalled.
Miss Ella Nve, tlic deceased was
the daughter of Mr. Nye, ftirmture
dealer and manufacturer on Eleventh
street, a g. ntIonian much respected in
this city. She was aged apparently
about twenty or twenty-one year* of
age, was very fair; ami was a young
lady of more than ordinary abilities.
About tour o’clock on Thursday after
noon, she left, her home, which is a
neat frame cottage upon the hill
southwest of Kuiun’s brewery, aud
did not return for nearly one hour
afterward. Ilcr family supposed she
bail merely gone out tor a walk, paid
little or no attention to her absence.
Nothiug unusual was noticed about
her demeanor, until about seven
o’clock, when she called her‘father
into her room and quietly informed
him that she had taken poison. The
following note, left by her, is all the
clue lett to indicate the cause of her
suicide:
“ Darling Fa: I watt to tell you
why I do this rash act. Because 1
am living such a useless life. Forgive
me, precious pa. And, Darling Ned,'
grow up and strive to be a comfort to
darling mother,pa and sister.”
She was evidently lalmring under a
severe fit of canm, or “lilacs,” ns n<i
other cause can he Qssignod for her
conduct. On the arrivnl.of Dr. D. K.
Dickerson, she stated to him that she
had taken a tcaspoonful of arsenic.—
The physician then informed her that
she would die. <Sho said, in response
to a question asked by Dr. Dickerson,
that she would like to have her lit*

It would almost have been a relief lo

of each day! Wc made a pretty good
voyage: and I almost J«!t aa if the

cargo safely on shore, and I felt my
throat still uueut, I almost thought it
loo good to he true—uo mistake!”
1 don't knowhow many of my ciga
rettes Mr. Topsal smoked, hut 1 know
that the slock was sadly reduced.
“But, I say, Topsal,’* I put in, “what
about the boys, you know? Did you
give them an awful thrashing?”
Mr. Topsal looked sulkier than usual
as he replied: “Well, they got loose as
soon as yvc got into port—slipped me,
and deserted the ship. That was the
last I saw of them.”

work.
An inquest Yvas held at tlm residence
of Mr. Nye. yesterday ~
about tlirre o’clock, by Coroner Sell-

to by the parents of llio deceased, hut
it could not he avoided. The corpse
looked vefy beautiful even in death. -
It was lying in a neat casket ready

Brigham’s Wives. _
Very extravagant statements have
been published of the numberof Brig
ham Young’s wives and clfildreji.—
IIow many he has had from the time
lie courted Miss Martha Brolherton
until now, it would he difficult to es
timate. Some ot Ids wives are dead ;
others have left him, and many proh-'
ably have been sealed to him who
strayed a'vay like those of Brother
He her, and he knew not whithw they
went. Ot Brigham's present family
I am personally acquinted with nine
teen of his wives. Before he was a
Mormon he had a wife and family, hut
of that lady I know nothing. Two of
her daughters are in Utah. Ilis Mor
mon family begins with Ins first legal
wife, who is still living—Mrs. Mary
Ann Angel Young. She is probably
about his own age. hut is physically
less preserved, and looks much older.
.She is a most excellent aud amiable
lady, and bears traces of having had
her full share of earthly trouble*.—
She is the mother ol three, prominent
sons, Joseph A; Brigham. Jr.; John
\\ f ., and two daughters—Alice
Luna. Each ol the sons lias three
wives. The first daughter
third of four wives in a |K>lvgamic
household. The other daughter if
I the first wife of a young man, and bar
“' lor a companion wife her latlier'f
daughter by another mother. The
eldest daughter, Alice, has also her
half-sisu*r as an associate
husband’s household.

ymg she thought she was leading a

She appeared lo be very anxious ahou ‘
her parents, and thought she wculi
better upon the following day.-

eight the next morning.
Dr. A. G. Marsh, druggi

half past three or four o’clock, oi
Thursday evening, and asked for lei
cents worth of arsenic. lie inquire*
of her what use she had for the poison
She replied that it was to poison rat
with. She appeared to lie veiy calm
and ladylike. He put up about
ounce of arsenic in twoonvclopes, and
labeled them ‘ Arsenic.—Poison.” He
then handed the parkage to her, bid
ding her to be cautious how she used
it, lest some children might become
