LITTLE WILLIE.
Poor little Willie,
With his many pretty wiles;
Words of wisdom in his looks,
And quaint, quiet smiles;
Hair of amber, touched with
Gold of heaven so brave;
All lying darkly hid
In a workhouse grave.
You remember little Willie:
Pair and funny fellow! ho
Sprang like a lily
From the dirt of poverty;
Poor little Willie!
Not a friend was nigh,
When, from the cold world,
He crouched down to die.
In the day we wandered foodless,
Little Willie cried for bread;
In the night we wandered homeless,
Little Willie cried for bed;
Parted at the workhouse door,
Not a word we said;
Ah, so tired was poor Willie,
And so sweetly sleep the dead.
’Twas in the dead of winter,
We laidhim in the earth;
The world brought in the New-Year
On a tide of mirth.
But, for lost little Willio
Not a tear we crave;
Cold and hunger cannot wake him
In his workhouse grave.
We thought him beautiful,
Felt it hard to part;
We loved him dutiful;
Down, down, poor heart!
The storms they may beat;
The winter winds may rave;
Little Willie feels not,
In his workhouse grave.
No room for little Willie;
In the world we had no part;
On him stared the Gorgon-eye,
Through which looks no heart.
“Come to me,” said Heaven;
And, if Heavens will save,
Little matters though the door
Be a workhouse grave.

A. STOWAWAY'S STORY,
Reading in the papers the other day of
the arrest of the mate of the Rio steamer
Finance for cruelty to three or four
stowaways who made their appearance
after the vessel was well on her voyage,
has recalled^vividly an adventure I had
when a boy of fourteen, and, though I
was a very humble individual myself, the
particulars of that adventure stirred the
people of a great kingdom.
I know the sailor from topmast head to
kelson, I have sailed in all sorts of
crafts, with all sorts of crews, and have
served many Captains. I know that sail¬
ors arc rough and uncouth, and that
there is always a disposition to find fault
and to magnify evils. Jack would have
his growl, no matter how well fed rtnd
how well used. On land there is a cer¬
tain antagonism between employer and
employed. On shipboard this is intensi¬
fied, but that is because the employer has
so much more power over the employed.
I frankly admit that I have never met
half a dozen sailors, no matter what sort
of Captain they were sailing under, who
were without complaints, but it does not
follow that all the others complained with¬
out reason. The ship may be comforta¬
ble aud full-handed, the fare all right,
and the Captain a good man, but the
mates can stilt make the craft mighty un¬
comfortable for the men. I venture to
assert that there are not half tt dozen
long voyage sailing crafts leaving our
shores in which abuses calling for loud
growling do not exist, and what is true
of America is true of all other countries;
The Dutch, Swedes, Russians, affd Las-
cars will stand overwork, poor grub, and
the abuse of officers, and as much for
this reason as any other the Yankee sailor
has been driven from the sea, and his
place filled by these substitutes.
When I was eleven years old my
mother died, and my father decided to
go to Australia. I was his only child,
and he was by no means burdened with
money. He was a master plumber, and
he set out for Sidney under contract,
Three months after our arrival he married
again, and it was not six weeks before
my stepmother pushed me into tlie
street. I was under-sized and sickly,
but I never gave her the slightest cause
for even a harsh word. She simply took
an aversion to me, and somehow
hatred came to be reflected in my father,
He saw me thrown out on the world
with hardly a protest.aud two days later,
-rhen he met me in tho street, he gave me
about eight shillings in money arid ad-
vised me to set up as ri bootblack and
newsboy. I should'probably have fob
lowed his suggestions had I not on that
same day chanced to fall in with two or
three. lads who were planning to stow
themselves away the* aboard of tin English
brig called Charles H. Churchill,
They were boys who had run away from
home OF been thrown over likG myself,
and the idea was that they could do bet-
ter in England. I was invited to join,
and when our plans had been laid there
were four of us of about the same age.
*\\ c looked the brig over, found that wc
could get aboard, aud made our arrange-
ments.
One night when the brig was nearly
ready for sea I stole aboard, carrying
with me about two quarts of water and
four pounds of bread and meat, This
was the share I was to furnish. I was to
board, slip down the midship hatch, and
the others were to follow at brief inter-
vals. A fire on board a ship a few huu-
dred feet awav collected the crew of the
brig aft aud I got aboard without risk.
The hold was nearly full of bags, barrels.
and boxes.and after waiting a few minutes
I made my way over these toward the bow,
and found a very comfortable place on a
lot of dry hides. I remained aw ake and
alert for two hours and then fell asleep
without realizing that I was a bit sleepy.
It was morning when I awoke, and as the
sailors were at -work below, I dared not
move or call out. I figured that my com-
panions were in through^the hiding around me, and
so rested easy day, sleeping
of the =
most time. At about sundown I
felt the ship under motion, and an hour
later the hatches were closed and I was
in midnight darkness. I had matches
and a stub of candle, and, after striking
a light, I moved around and whistled and
called to my companions. I could make
my way over the freight verv easilv in
aay direction and I would not give up
tliat I was alone until I had searched for
;v full hour. Then I was positive that I
was alone; the othejs had either backed
out or had been baffled in their attempt
to get aboard. I was much upset at the
discovery and crawled baek to mv bed
and cried myself to sleep.
It had been agreed among us hovs that
we should keep secreted three days after
sailing.- None of us anticipated any
trouble when we should make our
presence known. I had no way of com-
puting time, as it was night all the time
in the hold, but after my bread and water
had been used up and I was hungry and
thirsty, I decided that the three days
were up. Crawling to the cover of the
hatch I knocked c it and shouted, and
after a little it was opened and I was
helped out. It "was 9 o'clock on the
morning of the fourth day. The first
word from the Captain was a curse, and
his first act was to swing me about the
deck by the hair. Then he called for a
rope and beat me until I fainted away,
and while lying unconscious he and the
first mate kicked me several times.
When I came to I was ordered forward
among the men. They gave me kind
words, satisfied my hunger and thirst,
and hoped that the worst was over. It.
was not, however. At about noon I was
called aft, and after the Captain had in-
terrogated me a.s to my identity and why
I had selected hi? vessel, he gave me
another beating, and turned me over to
the mate with the words:
“You can have him now, and I hope
3'ou'll kill him before the week is out.”
“Aye, sir, leave that to me,” was the
reply. “I'll find a dozen ways to make
him wish he’d never been born.”
I had committed an offence, but noth¬
ing deserving such punishment as I re¬
ceived for the next three days. I was
flogged, kicked, cuffed and maltreated in
every way.Captain and mate could think
of, and was more than once rendered in-
sensible by their cruelty. I heard the
men cursing the officers for their con¬
duct, and encouraging each other to in¬
terfere, but I was passive. Indeed, after
a beating or two, I was so harried that I
could scarcely remember my own name.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, soon
after dinner,while I was forward with the
watch and assisting the sailmaker to re¬
pair a sail, the first mate called me aft.
The wind was light and the sea smooth,
and a few- fathoms astern of the brig was
an enormous shark. It had occurred to
the two brutes to have some fun with me-.
The mate noosed a rope and passed it
around my waist, and then; while I
struggled and shrieked rtnd begged for
mercy, he carried me to the port quarter
and dropped me overboard for shark
bait. The shark made a rush for me,
b ; lt 1 was haul « d U P just in advance of
his jaws. The Captain aud mate laughed
uproariously, and the latter had picked
me up to drop me from the other quarter
when the entire crew came running aft.
I saw that much, and then fainted away,
and what took place while I was uncon¬
scious was never clearly related to me.
The crew had determined to interfere,
and thoir actl0u excited . the Captain and
matc to a terrible degree. Thhe former
had a revolver in his pocket, and when
the crew refused to go forward he fired at
and wounded one of them. This brought
on of a fight, in which both officers and one
the sailors were killed. It was rebel-
lion—not mutiny. The sole idea of the
crew was to protect me from further
cruelty. In carrying this out murder was
done and all were liable to the gallows.
The dead bodies were lying on
on deck when I recovered con¬
sciousness while the men had congregat¬
ed in the waist of the brig for consulta¬
tion. The second mate whose name was
Chapman, had sympathized with the
crew although he had no hand in the
fight. lie was now’ asked to take com¬
mand of the brig until it could be deter¬
mined what should he done, and lie did
so. The three men were prepared for
burial in the usual way, and launched
over the side without service, and an
hour after the fight not a trace of it was
left;
When tlie question of what should be
done came up for discussion most of the
n^m were appalled at the seriousness of
the case. It was the first duty of the
mate to set a signal of distress, but, of
course, nothing of the sort was done,
Under the law he should head for the
nearest port and there surrender brig and
crew, but, of course, he had no thought
of this- While he had not incited the
crew to resistance, he had not come to
the aid of the officers. It would have
been easy to prove his sympathy for me,
and that would have made him the acces-
sorv of the crew. It was realized that
all had outlawed themselves, and the
question was where to go and what to do
with the brig. It was finally decided to
haul up for the Solomon Islands. ■ The
brig was bound home through Torres
Strait, as she had two ports of call to
make before reaching the Cape of Good
Hope, arid we were not over 450 miles
offi of Sidney when the mur-
ders occurred. We therefore had a voy-
°f quite 1500 miles before us.
For the first week men could not have
behaved more sensibly. The discipline
was good, and all were under proper re-
straint. Wc were sighting vessels daily,
*m<I on several occasion wc were passed
closely that we had to signal our niim-
ber and report nil well. On the third
*1^.' ^ nic\L»-0 J .*'W<ll GXCn<m^6d with
u3 i and through some bungling on our
Ills suspicions seemed to have been
aroused, and he would perhaps have
uoaraed us had not a change m the
ooa.h. i occurred. Aftc. aoout a Meek,
however, tnc men began to get iudepend-
ent and to bring forward new plans,
and there was no longer any harmony
among the crew. 1\ hilo Chapman was
the only* one who could navigate a ship,
an< l while he had been put in charge of
the brig, the men finally refused to do
an Y ' vork be J ODd that of sailing the craft,
Some openly advocated that we turn
pirate, and others wanted to run into
sonie l' ort aml seU bri ? and car S° aud di-
v5de thc ^oney. This was hooted at by
thc JnorG intelligent, and gave rise to fur-
ther ill-feeling.
I he brig had lignt or contrary winds
an d made slow progress, and at the end
of two weeks the situation oa board
could not have been much worse.
Thcre ~' vt ' rc niue of us - including the
cook > a black rnan - and eac ' u man of
tflcm seemed determined to do as he
Phased. All messed in the cabin, and
ad bad access to the liquor, and as a con-
sequence lights frequently occurred, and
there were times when the brig had close
shaves from being made a wreck. On
one occasion the men charged the mate
v *' ith playing them false, and with plan-
n5n ? deliver them up to justice, but he
somehow satisfied them that he was hold-
to the course originally agreed upon,
and be was honest in what he said. Af-
Ter a run of some twenty-five days he an-
nounced that we v,*ere approaching the
Solomon Islands, aud the men at once
made reaay to carryout their further
l dans * ’
One hundred miles southwest of San
Gliristoval, which is the easternmost
of the group, is a smaller group
cade d the Little Solomons. It was this
U rou P ^ere approaching, and at tha t
da»e no 'white man had set foot upon
them. They were inhabited by fierce and
blood thirsty natives, who combined pi-
racy, wrecking and fishing, and the mate
was for makiug for the other group, lie
was overruled in this, and when the brig
had hauled in until the land could be
seen from the deck the long boat was got
over and loaded. The men intended to
L*...Ld«p play the part of castaways, and had a
They erased th( name
of the boat, and took nothing aboard
which would betray the identity of the
brig which they meant to scuttle. At
noon, after working all the morning,
they had loaded the boat with whatever
suited them, divided up the sum of $1250
found on board, and were ready to bore
holes in flic brig's bottom.
For two da vs I had been ill of fever
and confined to my bunk. I knew from
the conversation around me what was
going on, and at noon, when one of the
men brought me a cup of gruel, he said
we should soon be off. Half an hour
later the brig became so quiet that ]
grew afraid, and with great effort crawled
on deck. The long boat was a mile
away, with every man in it. About four
miles to the west, coming up under a
light breeze, was a British man-of-war.
All sail had been taken off the brig so that
she was simply 1 drifting. It was the
•
smnt of the man-of-war , which had hur-
lied our crew off so suddenly. In about
an hour she came up,and after a crew had
been put aboard, both vessels stood in
aud came to anchor in a bay, and then
boats were sent out for the mutineers.
Not even a sight of them was ever ob¬
tained. Tea years later it was known
that they made a lauding on one of the
small islands, were secreted by the na¬
tives until the ship sailed, aud evert' out
of them was then knocked on the head
for the sake of the plunder.
I was taken back to Sidney, and later
on to England, and as I was the only
survivor my story was told and retold in
the courts and press until the whole
world had the details.— JS'ao York Sun.
Lemon Cultivation in Sicily.
The United States Consul in Messina,
in a recent report says that the well-
known variety of lemon called the “lu¬
nate,” or ever-bearing, produces blos¬
soms and fruit every month in the year.
When, however, during the Indiamsum
mer, rainy days are succeeded by dry,
clear weather, lemon trees of different
varieties immediately put on bloom, and
if, owing to the mildness of the season,
the fruit sets in at the beginning of winter,
it will come to maturity at midsummer.
Lemons are divided into two classes—the
true and the bastard lemon. The former
is produced by the April and May blooms,
the bastard by the irregular blooms of
February, March, June, and July, which
depend upon the rainfall or regular irri¬
gation and the intensity of the heat dur¬
ing the summer and winter seasons. The
true lemon requires nine months to reach
maturity—from the bloom in May to the
mature fruit in January. There are but
three harvests of the true lemon; tho
first in November, when the lemon is
green in appearance and not fully ripe.
These lemons are the most highly prized;
they possess remarkable keeping quali¬
ties, and are admirably preserved in boxes
in warehouses from November until
March, and sometimes as late as May, and
then shipped. The second harvest oc¬
curs in December aud Jar nary. These
lentous must be shipped three weeks af¬
ter gathering, by which time they have
acquired a yellowish appearance. The
third harvest occurs in March and April.
This fruit is shipped as soon as gathered,
spring prices being very high. The uni¬
formity in size of lemons is due to the
Monthly harvestings from October to
March. Bastard lemons present well
characterized peculiarities in shape and
appearance; their inner skin is fine, and
adheres tenaciously to the meat;
they are hard, rich in acid, and seed¬
less. The bastard lemon, pro¬
duced from the bloom of June
1, is still green the following April, and
ripens only toward the end of July. It
remains on the trees over a year, and sells
well in summer. Besides the March
and June bastards, there are } T et others
that remain on the trees from twelve to
eighteen months. The true lemon can
be left on the tree until the end of May
or the first week in June; but it inter¬
feres with the new crop, drops off from
over maturity, and is liable to be
attacked by insects. The bastards, on
the contrary, withstand bad weather and
parasites, and they mature from June to
October; It is estimated that four times
more oranges than lemons are lost in the
groves and warehouses, Good drainage
is most essential in orange and lemon
culture. In Sicily lemon cultivation is
thirty per cent, more profitable than that
of oranges, for the trees are more prolific
and tiie prices higher.—Scientific Ameri¬

Oyster Statistics.
In his speech before the Georgia LegSs-
ldtlirc OH LOG OJSt(.*r l)ili o&pc&ill t;rOiC aOH,
of Chatham, quoted some interesting fig-
ures.
“Five per cent, of the Georgia coast,”
said he, “is m natural oyster bees. Now
many people know wlnit tii.it means in
dollars and cents,”
A commission was appointed by the
State of Maryland to investigate the oyster
laws of other States and countries and
perfect the laws of their own State, in
their report the commissioners point to
the laws of Rhode Island as a model code
in that respect. Calculating oa results
obtained in Rhode Island, the commis-
sioners estimate the oyster beds of Mary-
land can easily be made worth £2,000,-
000,000. On the same basis the Georgia
beds shouM !>u worth to the State not
less than •'■800,000.000. There are 1,000.-
000 acres in oyster beds there and 400,000
in Georgia.
Within the next twenty years the oyster
industry will be, next to agriculture, the
most important industry in Georgia.—.

COWS SERENADED THEM.
How an Ohio Couple Were Greeted on
Their Marriage Eve.
There was great fun out in Delaware
township the other n glit. Mer.e Sours,
jbout sixtj-lno \ ears old, married a girl of
seventeen summers, and the boys
tLo wav o{ a elmrivari. The mis •'hief-
makers came to this city and purchased
two pailfuls of blood, fresh from a
slaughter the newly-married house, and carried it out where
the night. As couple December were to spend
May had retired soon as and
these boys slipped into
d surrounding the house and
P°uied a stream entirely around t lie
. ?•' m N ft ceomphshed this
od on C * W8 into theyanl'auTtLn comtaT-
themsolvcs to await developments.
The fun began at once. The cows no
sooner sniffed the blood than they com-
meuced bellowing frantically and could
ea i y be hoard a mile aw*av. Other
cows “caught on’' and soon there came
ft procession of bovine* from nearly
every farm in the township, all bellow-
^ the uiost vehement manner.
“‘Ugnt aH d stamped and pawed
^ gvoimd an l bellowe 1m chorus urn
til the bridal couple 4. fairlv went wild
froA the ftUlloyanc When the tumult
was at its height the bride groom, envel¬
oped in a red flannel garment,wasseeu to
emerge from the door with a huge club in
his hand, but his appearance in such a
costume and what only follows added fuel to the flame,
cannot be truthfully
described. The maddened rattle charged
at the red figure, aud the old man made
oik) run around the house, which would
have beaten tlio world's sprinting rec¬
ord, and just managed to get baek
within the door as the horns of the fore¬
most animal in the peeeCssion tore a
generous piece out of his red flannel
garment, the bride in the meantime
screaming and again at the top of her voice. Again
ber during the night did Decern
charivari attempt to dispose of his unique
party, but without avail, as
often would they return to their bloodv
trail. All this time the cows were
augmenting than in number until not less
200 cattle sniTOiindod the house,
while from every direction came the
answering the bellow of new recruits, has-
tening to bridal demonstration which
was so freely being bestowed upon old
man Sours and his youthlul wife. Not a
Wink of sleep came to the couple that
night, but by early morning the cattle
lmd so effaced ail trace of the blood by
their pawing and tramping that it no
by longer acted ns an attraction, and one
bride one they left the old man and his
in their glory. It was the strang¬
est and most successful charivari on
record.
Casting In Steel and Bronze.
The old Hindoo art of uniting differ¬
ent metals by casting, has been revived
in a Boston foundry. Steel and bronze
are now cast together by casting the
bronze put of the object first, then
cleaning them and placing them in their
proper position in a mold fur the entire
object. Molten steel is then poured in,
and it unites with the bronze wherever
it comes in contact with it.
