Colley in the Comet. “STOP THE SHIP.” It was a dark, moonless night, in the middle of December, and the rising ipSSs The sloping decks silent were and de serted, save for the figure of the officer ou watch, pacinc suddenly up and down before the wheelhouse, and a little group of saloon passengers clustered under the lee of the starboard lifeboat on the quar ter-deck. There was some half-dozen of us in all. Two fair Canadians on their way to spend the holiday’s in the “old country;”; a couple of young “subs.,” coming home ou leave from tbeir regi ment in Halifax; and one other careless pleasure seeker, like myself, returning from a visit to the Far w est. We had been whiling away the evening by singiug glees and telling stories, until the quartermaster striking five bells— 10:30 o'clock—warned us that lights would soon have to be put out. Not feeling inclined to turn in, I bade my watched merry laughingly companions good-night, them clown the com panion-way, chat and then turned aft to have a with the second officer who was keeping the deck-watch. “You seem to have had a pleasant time under the boat there,” upon’ he look’ said, after a few remarks the of the weather and the speed we were run ningat. “Yes, and we ended up with a ghost storv, which Mr. Lurtontold about his old grandmother seeing beckon!4 the figuro of her husband standing her ear nastly away from a terrace walk which ran under a brick fruit-wall in the hall grounds. She followed him,and scarce ly had she got out of danger before it fell with a crash just where she had been walking but half a moment before. His vs** " a s ” nd - ighi “ d “• “And do you believe in such things?” “Not a bit,” I answered, promptly. “Such things, as you call them,never ap pear to cool-nerved people in every-day life, hut only to timid, scared, and ner vous persons” “I don’t know that. I am not partic ularly nervous, I fancy; and yet a queer thins happened to me aboard this ship not very long ago,” and he turned to glance at the swinging compass at the mizzen crosstrees. “If you care to hear about it, I’ll spin you the yarn—unless you want to turn in.” So lie began his story, whilst the creaking of the spectre-looking spars aloft sounded like the moan of troubled spirits, and the swishing of the water under the counter kept up a mournful rhythm as he spoke as follows: in “We left the Mersey the first week May, bound for New York, with a full ship—saloon and steerage both crowded —and made a quick run, for she is a fast boat, and the captain never gives her a chance of getting far off a straight course. “We -were five days out, and that evening some of the gentlemen had got up a concert, which was a great spirits success, and every bodv seemed quickest in high at the prospect of the passage on record. Of course this was before the Arizona, Alaska, and Etruria had aston ished the world by the wondrous smart runs which they have made. I relieved Mr. Jones at four bells and took the bridge, remarking to him, as be turned to go down the ladder, that it felt un commonly cold for the time of year, ‘It's leaving a warm cabin makes you feel it,’he said, wishing me a pleasant watch, and the next moment I was up there alone. “It was a pitch-dark night, and a thick veil of blackness seemed to wrap the ship from stern to stern. There was no wind and the sea was quiet, the still¬ ness only broken by tbe dull, regular throbbing of the great engines as they steadily drove her along. I glanced ahead and could barely distinguish turned the aft watch forward and then I and saw the dim form of the officer in charge of the deck leaning against the port door of the wheel-house. “All was right, and I began to pace slowly across the bridge from side to side, watching the white gleam of the phosphorescent water as it raced past and trailed away into the dark expanse behind us. I remember thinking what a nutshell this powerful ship was there in the midst of the boundless ocean, and E°w but a thin plateof iron, was between gauds of fathoms down among all th hideous creatures that live in tbe sunless depths. I was roused out of my musing by the voice of the captain, who had come up did to see if all times was right, during as he generally night, several always the for he was alive to the tact that he had a valuable ship and pre¬ cious lives under his care, and nothing ever made him forget it. I have heard him say to some gentlemen who pressed him to join them in a bottle of cham¬ pagne to celebrate the speedy arrival of his vessel off the Irish coast: “ ‘I am much obliged to you for the kindness which prompts the request, but we are nearing land, and this night, of all others, I must keep a cool head and a clear eye for your sake and my own.’ “Well, as I was said saying, the captain came alongside and : “How’s her head, Mr. Brown?” <( < W. N. W., a quarter W.. sir,’ I an¬ swered, with a glimpse at the binnacle. “ ‘Bight it is—keep it so;’he bade me good night, and I watched him go along the deck forward to speak to the watch on the fok’sel. “Then I began my walk again, and my wondered thoughts how slipped wife away and home, and I my youngsters were. I lived over again in fancy the days I had spent ashore during my last leave, and then, somehow, memories of my boyish days crept in. sensation “Suddenly a curious dream¬ came over me and utterly banished all ing.

I seized the han¬ dle, and for a moment paused as I thought of the confusion and alarm which I was about to cause, and how an¬ gry tbe sleeping captain would be at my daring to do such a thing without his orders. The next instant I rang: ‘Easy ahead.’ I felt the engine’s throb more slowly. Yet again I heard, almost mad¬ ly— ‘Stop the ship’.’ “ And without a moment’s further hesi¬ tation I rang “Stop,” and soon the throb¬ bing ceased entirely. I heard exclama¬ tions of surprise from the fok'sel. There was a rare commotion on the deck as the captain rushed up the ladder in anxious haste, but before he could reach my side, the resistless power had overcome me again, and I rang down “Full speesl astern.” “ ‘In heaven's name, what’s the mat* ter, Brown?’ I heard the astonished cap tain say as the mighty screw began to race astern, and forcibly pull up, as it were, the great ship, which still forged gently “Before ahead. I could answer, or even glance around, the a loud shout from the lookout on bows: ‘An iceberg right on us 1 ’ was followed by a slight shock and a quiver and rattle as we ran stem on to the towering monster. What our fate would have been had we been steaming at full speed, you may guess; instead of carrying dinian you home to-night, the old Sar¬ would be lying fathoms deep, and her loss would have added one more to the mysteries of the sea. J There was a dead silence as the speaker ended, and we puffed our pipes thought¬ fully for a few moments, until he added— “That is a queer yarn, I know, and if you I have can explain it, so much the better. but often tried to do so to myself, cannot. I believe some unseen spirit that was sent to save those helpless souls night, in spite of all the clever reasons which scientific men find for the exist¬ ence of such things, and I know that, but for that powerful impulse which I could not resist, we should have rushed upon our doom. My yarn is a true one.” Then glancing up aloft, he said— “The wind is hauling round, and must have some of that canvas off her s whistle, mixed up with the creaking of blocks and the “haul-i-oy ’ of the watch in my ears as I thought over the curious story which was told me by the second officer, The Freedman’s Savings Bank. The Inter-Ocean gives the following history of the Freedman’s Savings Bank: The Freedman’s Hank enterprise was proposed as a purelv charitable to encour a g e f rU! r a lity and thrift among the newly liberated blacks. Mr. Summer reported the chartering the bank, 1-ebruary 17, 1305, and on the 3d of March, following, it became a law. The bank was estab jigged in Washington, and branch banks t 0 tbe number of thirty-four were fafter war d) located in different parts of the ; Union Th( . institutioil waB authorized to receive the deposits of negroes, and j nvest the same in the stocks, bonds, Treasury note3 or other securities of the United States.

By law, the bank were confined to government ignored, and se cur itjes, but this law was the funds used to aid the wild-cat schemes of the “ring” and their friends, Unimproved real e-tate, unsalable stocks ( gucb ag that of the Maryland Freestone Mining and Manufacturing Company”), Company, and al ias the “t'eneca Stone personal notes, were among the assets ol the bank. Deficits and embezzlements a t the branch banks also debts produced owed many losses. The unsecured by the bank to depositors July 13, 1874, amounted to $2,900,000. I he expected, assets, which realized more than was yielded nearly $1,700,000. Dividends have been paid at various times, but many small depositors, through ignor ance and despair, forfeited their divi (lends by not calling for them. In all 77,000 dividends,amounting to $112,000, were thus forfeited. The cost of “wind ing up” this bank was $475,000. For some years three bank commissioners were employed at a salary of $3,000 each. But in February, 1881, the affairs of the bank were all turned over to the Comptroller of the currency, at a great saving of expenses. Valuable Gold Nuggets. Louis Blanding says the generally ac cepted statement that the largest nugget ever found in California was worth a little more than $21,000 is an erroneous one. He says that J. J. Finney, “Old Virginia, ” found a piece of gold about six miles from Downievillo, Sierra County, on August 21, 1867, that weighed 5,000 ounces. The gold ol that vicinity was worth $18 an ounce, which would'make the value of the nug¬ get $90,000. This ; would make the Finney nugget the largest piece of pure gold ever discovered, so far as accounts go. Heretofore, the Australian nugget found in the Ballarat gold fields has been considered the largest. It was valued at $30,000. Finney, or “Old Virginia,” days, as he was familiarly called in those afterward went to Wa-hoe when the great silver discoveries whre^ made there, and from him the town of Vir¬ ginia City took its name.

Gain a little knowledge every day; one fact in a day. How small a thing is one fact—only one. Ten years pass by. Three thousand six hundred and fifty facts are not a small thing. Narrow-minded people have not a thought beyond the little sphere of their own vision. “The snail,”says the Hin dops, “sees nothing but his own shell, and thinks it the grandest place in the universe. It is the glorious prerogative of the empire of knowledge that what it gains in¬ it never loses. On the contrary, it creases by the multiple of its own power; all its ends become means; all its attain¬ ments help to conquests. The inhabitants of cities suppose that the country landscape is pleasant only half the year. I please myself with the graces of the winter scenery, and believe that we are as much touched as by the genial influences of summer. HEALTH HINTS. A. .cti™ dd. i.to, of obesity.

Health and Home. The Orloff Diamond. This magnificent gem, which in its rough state formed the eye of an idol in a temple near Trinchinopoli, was stolen by a Frenchman, who ■ escaped with his prize to Persia, and who, fearful of being discovered, was glad to dispose of his ill-gotten gear for a sum of about £2,000. The man who bovight the stone a Jew ish merchant, sold it to one Shrafras, an Armenian, for £12,000, 8hafras had conceived the idea that by carrying the stone to Russia he would obtain trom the Empress, Catharine the Great, a sum for it. How to travel in safety with the stone, the theft of which had of course been discovered and pro claimed, became a grave consideration. It was too large to swallow, and no mode of concealment presented from itself dDcovprV to Shaf ras that that seemea sppmed secure secure om ai.covery. The way m which he solved the problem was remarkable. He made a deep in cision in the fleshy part of his left leg, in which he carefully inserted the by stone, closing it the wound sewing up with silver thread. When the wound healed, the Armenian qmrehant set out on his travels quite aptojeffended, bolijly, and although more than once evelrtortured rigorously searched, and a little, he was obdurate, and firmly denied having the stone in his possession. Having at length reached his destination he asked from the Empress the sum of £40,000 for the gem, an amount of money which Catharine was unable to raise at the moment. We next find the Armenian Amsterdam with the intention . of at having his diamond cut Here tbe stone was seen by Count Orion, presentation who deter- to mined to purchase it for his royal mistress, the Empress Cathar ine. The sum ultimately paid for the gem was about £60,000 sterling in cash, together with an annuity of £.j 00 and a patent of nobility.

AFTER TWENTY-FOUR YEARS. Dr. Jelin Taylor Finds his Wife ami Daugh¬ ter After Long Separation. [From the Cleveland Leader.] John Taylor was born in this city about forty-five years ago. He watt born the son of a Presbyterian minister. The family resided in Cleveland until a fe-W years before the rebellion, when they moved to the South. The Rev. Mr. Taylor secured a pastorate and his children became imbued with the South, ern spirit.

A great sorrow was in store for him, and when he returned to his Southern home he inquired for his wife and child. lie was told by his friends that both were dead. The war was soon ended, and a few months later Taylor’s father died in Cincinnati. His estate was divided among seven children, and John re¬ ceived $3,000 as his share.
