THE VIUJS DU HAVRE.
What n Feminine Journalist Who
< rowed the Ocean In It Nay, About
llir OIll Hulk.
Ur>. Itiimkam'a Letter to tlio St. Louis Ih-r,uli-
Umt.i
A* 1 write this leller llio nows goes
tlin>u{>li tho land that tlio Villo du Havre
li.i ut the bottom of tho sea. Tho awful
liiwutar must chill every heart, but it
CMuoe homo to jne with doubly dreadful
import. I (jo back to the nights when
that dismal old boat would of a sudden
* tali'1 still and sbiver and shako liko a
paralytic, when all Jiands and tho cook
••amperod from stem to stern to learn
the locality of tlio last trouble. I loft
this tmt a devout fill thankful, but somo-
»li.it disappointed woman. I counted on
her j oing to tho bottom that trip. The
iforflvou* old hulk was fired up with tho
bloom of youth and patent stays and now
machinery, hut waa old when sho went
into tho line. She was an old side*
wheel steamer, which had homo tlio name
of Napoleon III. (Queer name for an old
oiH.) Shooutmjjod tliolawsof navalorch-
ilcet un‘, and I always supposed ships, like
hridjes, must bo Bymuietrical in sliapo to
U‘ Rife. Hero was n ship, originally of
',vod length, to which was attached sixty
fret of (jilded saloon. It was tacked or
tuck on somo way, nnd was tho entiro
width of tlio vessel, with not a single hraco
uywhoro to be seen. I’anoled beautiful
ly r.ilh white marble slabs, veined with
old, at a little distance they had tlio
beerful look of grave-stones, and it took
teiy little imagination to road first-class
obituary notices on all of them. That
whole saloon always scorned to mo a sort
of porcelain-lined iron dinner-pot. Very
lucky for mo it is that tho Villo du Havro
didn't meet n floating clothes-polo lost
An ;imt. I shouldn’t he on dry land to
day thinking sadly of those poor creat
ure; who perished on tlio morning of tlio
15th or November.
As a prophetess I am a success, and I
wean to writo to my paternal progenitor
to-night and learn if there is any seventh
daughter about me. I predicted n pre
diction that that rilo old boat would never
i the year ’71 afloat. and lo! she is gone.
Sorer again through her gilded saloon
will ring the Anglo-French cry, “ Ding
dong, goreon, cat leiuonado!” ’There is
a terrible lesion to bo learned from the
loin of the Villo du Havre, if tho actual
facts are ever known, for there was
frightful economy shown in its manage
ment. and criminal recklessness in ever
putting her on the line. When I came
over they hid the disabled stato of tho
mvw, and took her back to ho
repaired in France, with ono entiro
fan gone and part of another missing,
localise repairs cost so much less there
'ban here. They saved forty dollars on
x trip by using a filthy yellow fat oil tho
ehinety instead of decent oil, and tho
'tuell of tlio vile compound stewing on
'be engines must have done much to re
concile the passengers to shipwreck. A
paper here expresses astonishment that
»# electric light was not used. Why, the
(lit I know of the dastardly economy’of
PYenoli line they were negotiating
* ; ih a red-bended Gaol, thinking he
would _ prove a cheaper substitute for a
«i'0(l-|jght than the feeble lanterns in
Catch them increasing their er-
KttM's one hundred dollars a day for an
doctrie light.
* scuttled tho ship in half a dozen
Pace* with hair-pins and paper-cutters.
*'ell the untmggeratod' truth when I
S 'hat lying on the sofa in state-room
50 I dug into the punky wood, two
three inches away from tho porthole,
*>th a paper-knife till I struck tho glaz-
’Ogof iren that formed its outer coat.
Dut iron plating was nowhere thicker
“on a frying-pan, and a determined
utile pilot-boat, with a shingle nail at
'be prow, could have cut through us and
Cot out the other side, if it didn’t run
“•lo the cook or captain e;i route. When
the lodt Earn gets into port people will
r “*h down to see the fearful agent of de-
'ruetiyn. She will possess no such im-
Jfrtukv for me. I know how easy she
'hd it, for I know what n craxy old shell

An Old Story Remodeled.
It is a singular fact in the wise and in
scrutable economy of nature, (wc haven't
the remotest id.-a what the economy of
nature is, but it has a kind of profound
erudite twang to it, and so we u.-e it.) it
i- singular, we -ay, l ut true, that ever
since the first Thanksgiving Day was ap
pointed, every year on Thanksgiving Eve
a widow woman with anywhere from nine
to 17 children lias stitched away at a mag
nificent silk dr--** in a chc-erh-SR gaxret
while her hungry progeny howled for
bread. Tho confusion and excitement
attendant on the Cuban crisis and the
panic almost caused this excellent woman
to be overlooked thin year. But the inex
orable law which established this woman’s
existence and condition cannot foil, and
to-day thousands of papers in this Chris-
tion land publish this woman’s story
without an atom of variation in the num
ber of children, condition of wretchedness
and timely arrival of tho rich brother
from South America.
Hut we digress. Follow us, opulent
reader, you who have been bred in the
lap of luxury, who wear fine linen and
pinchbeck studs, smoke imported cigars
and owe your washerwoman, nc-ver take
anything but fancy drinks, and would
rather meet the devil than your Iong-
euduring tailor, follow us to the abode of
toiling’ poverty. And st»y—bring your
sister along.
"We toil up six pair of rickety stairs.
It grieves us and cuts our wind to drag
yon up such a dreary distance, but it
can’t be helped. Never since time was,
luu the “misery” scene of a Thanks
giving story been located nearer the
ground than a six-story garret. Some
times a wretched family is thrust into
damp, slimy cellar, but that is when the
husband is alive and a drunkard. Tho
widow always lives aloft, and we won'
violate the proprieties if it breaks your
legs.
There ore in this wretched room only
■a-v.-n children. On the pile of rags ii:
tho corner is little Jimmy. Ho tried to
steal a ride on a freight train, and
tho gentlemanly conductor pitched him
through a bridge. The fall broke his
back, put out his eyes, injured him in
ternally, dislocated his right arm, scalp
ed him, and ono of his legs had to be cut
off. He is a cripple. AVo would prefer
leaving him out, but it can’t bo done
Ho’a always there. But alas! this Jim
my is not liko all the other Jimmies you
have read about in the other stories.
Alt, no. Ha does not lie on his poor lit
tle pallet reading ' tho Testament and
singingsnatches of Sunday-school hymns.
Not ho. Every time ho feels a twinge
lie swears like a pirate, and when his sis
ter Ann fell down on him with the baby
ho hit the end of her ear off and put a
head on her liko a natural chignon. He
doosn't take any Sunday-school in hi;
does Jimmy.
Tlio oldest boy i3 not home. He is
good boy, and trios to help his mother,
n# lias gono up town to see if ho can get
a place at $1,200 a*year, with nothing to
do and a boy to help him. His health
will not permit him to embark in any
mggeder service. His nerves ore effect
ed, and ho lias to smoke a brierwood pipe
all tlio timo to keep kimself up. If he
eome3 in beforo you go away ho will beg
all tho tobacco you liavc. Tho second
hoy is not hero also. Ilo is up in tho
calaboose. Ho is a prig mid will como to
bo scragged some day, if ho keeps on.
He is in just now for stealing, nnd it
almost broke his poor mother's heart to
think that lie got caught.
Tho five oldest girts are out drummin
up tho cold victuals market. They are
not proud girls. They will toko anything
that is offered them, and a great many
things that aro not offered them. This
makes them great favorites, and people
will not lot them come into tlicir houses
for fear they could not bear to part with
them again.
In the corner by a rickety table sits the
poor widow sowing. A tallow candle ex
actly two inches long is burning with a
fooblo light. Wo don’t know why, but it
makes no difference what timo of day or
night tlio Thanksgiving story takes note
of, tlio short tallew candle is inevitable
and immutable. It never burns out, and
it always sputters and lmrna feebly. The
poor widow is sowing on an elegant dress,
imported silk, cut bias in tho back with
point npliqtic ruflhies around tho nock,
overskirt a la Pompadour, rovers caught
up by loopings of tho same, hold in place
by sprays of diamonds, underskirt ent
train, gored in three scollops with flounces
of black lavender, recherche, very full at
tlio nock, singlo breasted, side stripe,and
a pocket behind. Tho dress does not be
long to tho poor widow. Ah, no. Tho
P. W. is making it fora young lady up on
Mudision street, whose father is worth
$0,000,000, although, owing to tho pecn-
liar vagaries of tho revenue law and tho
convenience of a sworn return, liis taxes
are somewhat less than his coachman has
to pay. But wo digress. Tho custom of
tlio wealthiest inhabitants having tlicir
most expensive and finest dresses mode in
the poorest and dirtiest houses that can
bo found has its origin in Thanksgiving
stories, and wo cannot depart from it.
This dress must be finished to-night, for
tho widow needs the money and tho young
lady wonts to wear tho new gown to the
German fair.
Timo wears on. It is tho hour for
supper. Aware of this interesting fact
the children, who arc now all present,
raiso a dolorous howl for bread. Does
tho poor widow sink on her knees, and
clasping her hands, sny, “ May Heaven
liavo pity on my fatherless children ! I
have no bread for them ?” Usually nhe
does, but not this one. She says:
Brood bo blowed. I haven’t hardly
money enough to buy whisky.”
And sho straightway sends one of the
boys out to get the pint bottle filled.
Then she pegs away on that dress,
ner sallow cheeks glow with a hectic
flush. So does her bulbous nose.
At last tho dress is ready and sho rolls
it up in a wad, ties it with a piece of
rope and sends it homo by ono of the
boys. While they are waiting for liis
return with the money, one of the chil
dren comes in with a lag full of coal,
which a kind-hearted neighbor had given
him. Tlio generous man was not at
home when he gave tho boy the coal, hut
he lmd left the coal-houso door unlocked,
which was the some thing.
The boy who took the dress home
comes bock without tho money. The
price of tho work was $1.75. These
Thanksgiving widows always work mar
velously cheap, and the lady had nothing
less than a second mortgage or fractional
lot 27, block H, ne I sw i sec. 0, n, so by
w, original plat of tho old town, now city
of Peoria, and the boy couldn’t make the
change. Did they all fall on their knees
and look to Heaven for help as usual,
while the widow’s sobs rent the midnight
air and the tears trickled off her rosy
nose and tho children wailed in lachry
mose chorus ? Ah no! They unanimously
accused tho boy of lying and hooking the
money—they went for him in wrathful
chorus and tousled him like an old shoe.
They put various heads on him, the table
is upset, the bottle broken, yells and
howls mar the peaceful stillness of
Thanksgiving Eve, the two-inch tallow
candle flares wildly in the murky air, tlio
broken victuals fly like hail stones—all is
confusion, tumultuous horror broods
around and starvation stares the wretched
iamily in the face when—heavy steps as
cend the rickety stairs, a smell of tar is
heard in the distance, a hearty voice bat
ters at the craxy door.
“Avast! Shiver my tarry top lights!
Stop my grog if this isn't the squalliest
tack I ever lay to on. Ahoy, there! Be
lay! Show a fight alongside till I come
to anchor and board yc. Hello, ship
mates, what cheer ?”
And he strode into the atom. Oh
Heaven, can it be ? It isn’t! It is ! It
isn’t! It is! Ohyes. ’tis ! 'tishe! It is—
it is the long lost sailor brother ! AA ith
six policemen after him for robbing the
captain of the canal boat on which he
sailed, getting drunk on the money and
trying to cut a couple of men in two,
dewn on AVashington street, breaking
three squares of street lamp posts, steal
ing a horse, having five wives, and sot
ting fire to a stable,—Peoria (TU-) Pe-

MANUFACTURED BY
Langdale’s Chemical Manure Company
(LIMITED.)
NEWCASTLE-ON-TYNE, ENGLAND.
Has tho following Powerful Kecommendations for Planters
It is a genuine English made Manure, the only ono in the market, and manu
factured by a company having a capital of $1,250,000, which seUs 40,000 tons annu
ally, and has the most oxtensivo works of the kind in Great Britain, which have
been in operation 24 years. Tho Langdalo, therefore, has a good pedigree and is no
experiment.
It contains a larger proportion of chemical elements suited for tho promotion
of vegetable life, and especially of cotton, than any other fertilizer offered in tho
South. It is the best and safest Cotton Manure in tho market.
The analysis given with tho Manure when sold wiU be guaranteed. There shall
be no mistake about the genuineness of tho article, nor the good faith of the vendors.
It is the cheapest Manure offered, as it contains nothing but what is of use in
becoming plant-food, or by chemical action on the soil, producing tho same. The
test of cheapness is not tho price, but the actual worth of tho article purchased.
Low-priced Manure cannot contain efficient quantities of pure and valuable chemi
cals, which can nlono give worth to a fertilizer, and bring satisfactory results. The
Langdalo is as low in price as is consistent with tho use of tho best ingredients, nnd
a fair commercial profit on its cost.
Tho employment of powerful machinery in mixing and pulverizing tho ingre
dients prepares every particle for service, and prevents trouble in using. Tho Lang-
daleis unequalled in this respect, and impresses every ono who secs it os a perfectly
manipulated Manure.
In its composition and preparation it is the result of careful scientific research
and experiment, confirmed by practical application for a quarter of a century. It
will ho maintained at its present high standard, and is thus what planters have
long wanted - a thoroughly reliable and safe Manure.
