I saw all this ns tho revenue, cutter's bout separateiKon making for thu ckihh- tiiwre, and thu other (lashing after tho Hying long-shoiti siiiuulron ; a.s 1 drag ged at my oar, 1 had the plea-tuo of seeing Ihat woiuut cither bo soonover hauled, or el-o leap out into thuslmllow water, and run for II, and I said so to my companion, "O, hang It, no," ho cried "pull on. They'll stavo in the boat, and wo wall loru'all the brandy," I did pull on, for I was so far from be ing loyal, that I wn.s ready to rim any risk sooner that losotho llttlecargo wo I A u' ii. neat I Fruiting l had of u dozen brain y-l;egs, and about pulled on, and keeping off to thu right, wu had thu satisfaction ofscelng tiio re venue, boat row straight on, as If not noticing us. " Keep olfa llttloliow," 1 Whispered, or wu shall bu ashore." "No, no, it's nil right," was tho re ply "wo uro Just over tho swatch" hull is Iho local term given to tiio longchaimuls washed out In tho sand by tlin tide, hero and there forming deep trenchesalong the const, very dangerous for bathers. " Hy Jingo, they.fceuus," I whispered when my companion backed watcr,mid tlie consequence, was, that thu boat's hcpd turned right In-shorc, and wo lloated between tho piles, and wero next moment, with shipped oars, out of sight In the outlet of the gowt. Now, I'm not prepared to glvo the derivation of tho word "gowt," but I can descrlbo what It Is, namely, thu termination, nt tho sea-const, of the long Lincolnshire lnnd-dralns, In thu shape of a lock with gates, which nru opened at certain times, to allow tho dralnago to How under the sand into tho sea, but carefully closed when tho tldu is up, to prevent Hooding of tho marsh-lands, protected by the high sea bank, widen runs along tho const, nml nets tho part of clilfs. Trom these lock- gales, it square woodwork tunnel is for' mod hy means of piles driven Into the shore, and crossed with stout planks; nnd this covered water-way in somo ises runs for perhaps two hundred yards right beneath tho .-and-bank, then beneath tho sand, and lias its outlet somo distnnce down tho shoro while, to prevent tho air blowing tho tunnel up when tho sea conies In, n cotiplo of square wooden pipes descended nt In tervals of somo Hfly yards through the sand into tno water-way ; at high wib tor, when thu mouth Is covered, mid tho lock-galesclosed,tlioalr comes bellowing and roaring up thcscplpo-s as every wave. comes in ; ami at times, when tho tun uel Is pretty full, the water.wlll, after chasing the air, ru-li out after It, and form a spray fountain; while as tho waves recede, thu winds rush back with astrange whistling sound.and a draught thai draws anything down into the tun nel with a tlercu rush. Hut thero was another peculiarity of tho hollow way tlmt was strangely impressed upon my memory that night, namely, its pow er of acting ns a vast speaking-tube, for if a person stood at one of the escape pipes and whispered, his words were distinctly audlblu to another at thu other nine somo lift v yards oil, who could ns easily respond. "Well, it was into tlie mouth of tho gowt tunnel that wu hud now run thu boat, wliero wo wero Voncealed lroni view certainly ; and thrusting against thu piles with his hands, my companion worked the boat farther into tho dark- lies-, until tho keel touched the soft sand. "That'ssnug," lie whispered: "they'lf never llndus here." "No," isald, a.s a strange fear came ltll,,f t T 11, (I, to I'l-itury" II ... II 111V. J.l. I .T (I . ...VI ...... . " Ka-t," ho said. "Then we shall bu stopped from get tin., nut." " Nonsense." ho said. "It will taku an hour to rbo nlmvu the tunnel-mouth, nnd if It dltl, wu could rim her head up higher and higher. Plenty of fresh air through tho pipes." " If wo'ru not drowned," 1 said "There, if you want to lo-o thucargo, we'll pull out at once, nnd glvo up," ho mill. " Hut 1 don't," I replied; "I am stanch enough ; only 1 don't want to ri-k my life. " Well, who does?" he said. "Only keep still, and wo shall bo all right Tho few minutes wu had been con versing had been long enough for tho tide to float tho boat once more.andthls time I ral-ed my hand to the roof, and thru-ting agaln-t tho tunnel-covered, weed-hung, slimy woodwork, soon had tho boat's keel again In the sand, sons to prevent her being sucked out by the rellux of tho tide At times wo could bear shouts, twice nl-tol-shots, and then wu wero startled hy the dull, heavy report of a small cannon. , , " That's alter t he rtiwwiim," wills- poicd my companion; "but she sails liko a wllch. She's .-ale mile-- they knock a -par away." " I wl.-h ur were," 1 said, for I did not feel nt till comfortable lu our dark hole, up which wo wero being forced farther and further by Iho Increasing tide; while more than one wo bad to hold on tightly by thu horrible slimy spiles, to keep from being drawn back. " Ju-t tho place to tiuu (lean Domes," whispered my companion, evidently to to startle me. ' .lu-tso," I said coldly. "Perhaps they'll Hud two to-morrow." " Don't croak," was the polllo rejoin- dor; and then ho was silent , but I could hour a peculiar boring nol.-u beingmade, and no further attempts at a Jokul ued from my friend's lips. " Suppose wo try and get out now?" I whispered, after another quarter of an hour's listening In Iho darkness, anil hearing nothing hut thu soft rippling, and the "drip, drip" ofwato beyond us whllo towards tho nioutli-camo tho "lap, lap" of tho waves ugnlnsttho sides ot'tho tunnel, succeeded by a rush ing nol-e, und tho rattling of tho mus sels clustering to tho woodwork, now loudly, now gently while every light rustlu of the seaweed scorned to send u shiver through me. The nol-o ns of boring had ceased somu time, and my friend now drew my nltentlon to ono of thu kegs, which ho had inadoaholo through with his knife; nnd never before) did spirits comu so welromo ns at that moment. "Hettertry nnd gel out now," whis pered my coinjinnion. "They must bo somowhero hnndy, though ono can't seo even their boat," said n strange voice, which scorned hoi low and echoed along tho tunnel.wlille the rattling of tho shells mid Innplug of tho wider grow louder. All at oiico I raised my head, its If to feel for the liolodown which tho sound "Wilt libit," said my companion, thickly; "tliey'ro on the look-out yet j It'o madness to go out." Ami 1 then heard it noise which told mo, tiint fear ful or not, lie was) trying to drown con sclousness In the liquor to which bo had miuio uis way. However, It seemed to inu madness (o stay whero wo were, to bo drowned liko rats In n hole ', nnd Inking ad vantngo of thu next receding wave, I gave tho boat n start, und sho went down towards the mouth of tho tunnel forallttluwuy, n coming current would have driven her back, only I clung to tho roof, now very Iowdown,andrathcrcloso to which tho bont now lloated. Another thrust, nnd I pushed her somu dl9tnnco down j but with tho next wavo that ennio In, my hand wnsjnmniedngulnsttho slimy roof,nnd unnerved with liorror.I gasped: "House up, Harry I tho mouth's under water I" Hollowly sounded my volco ns the wavo sank, nnd T felt once moro free, and In sheer despair forced tho boat lower down the tunnel ; but this time, when tho tide camo In again, I had to lio right back, tho boat rose so high, and I felt the dripping sea-weed hanging from tho roof sweep coldly nnd slimlly over my faeo; when, boforo tho next wave could rnlso us, I thrust eagerly at thu side, forcing the boat Inward again, but In the fear and darkness, got her across tho timnel,so that head and stern were wedged, nnd as tho next rush of water came, ltsmototlto boat heavily, nnd mndo her a fixture, so that, In splto of my efforts, I could not move her eith er way. Wash camo tho water again nnd again, nntl nt every dnsh n portion camo into the boat, drenching mo to the skin; whllo I now became awaro that Harry Ilodson, my companion, wns lying stu pilled aero-s tho kegs, and breathing heavily 1 mndo ono more effort to inovo tho boat, but It was tighter titan ever; and after conquering an Insane desire to dlvo out, und try nnd swim to the mouth, I let myself cautiously dowu on the Inner side and stood, with tho water breast' high, clinging to thu gimwnlo of thu boat. Tho next moment it rose above my mouth, lifting mo from my fect,and as it rushed back, sucked my legs be neath tho boat ; hut I gained my feet again, and began to wade Inward. Yet strong upon mo me ns wns tho de.-lro for life, I could not lenvo my companion to his liuu in so cowardly a way ; so I turned back, and this timo swimming, 1 reached tho boat, now nearly full of water; and half dragging, half lifting,! got his body over tho side, and holding on by his collar, tried once moro for bottom' Hut it was a horrible time thero in tho dense black darkness, a darkness that, lu my distempered brain, seemed to bo peopled with hide. ous forms, swimming, crawling, and waiting to devour us, or fold us In their limy colls. Tho dripping water sound ed hollow and echoing strange whispers and cries seemed floating around; tho niu-sols rustled together: and ever loud er camo tho "lap, lap, lapping" of tho water a.s it rushed in nnd dashed ngnlnst tho sides and celling of the horriblo nlaco, l was now Clinging wun one naiiit to tho boat's side, wlille witli the other I held tightly by Hod.-on's collar; hut though I waited llllthownvo receded be foro I tried tho bottom, It was not to bo touched ; so, shuddering and horror stricken,!! waited tho coming wuvtymd struck oll',swlmining with all my might. It was only a minute's ta-k j hut when, after twice trying, my feet touched tho bottom, I was panting heavily, and so nervous, that I bad to lean, tremblhi; and shaking, again-t tho side. Hut I had a tight hold of Hodson.who-o head I managed to keen above water ; and it was not until warned of my danger by tho rising tide, and tho dilllculty I found lu keeping my feet, that I again cs-aved to press forward. .lust then, something cold and wet swept aero--; my face, and dashing out my nrms to keep oil' somu monster of the deep, my hands camo In contact with a round body which heat iigalust my brea-t, and lu my horror, as I dash ed away, I was sotuepaceserotlio drag ging nt'my limb told me that I had left my comrade to hi-fate. Thu next mo ment however, hu was swept up to mo ; and once more clutching his collar, and keeping his head above water, I wndod -lowly along the tunnel, when again I nearly lu-t my hold, for thu snmu wot slimy body swept acro-s my face but raising my hand, I only da-hod away ono of thu Jong strands ol bladder-weed which hung thickly from the cross tim ber- of the roof. It wa- no hard matter to bear my companion along'.wlth me.for I had not only to keep his head up, his body Hunt ing along tho surface, but my foothold was uncertain, for now the bottom was slimy, and my feet sunk in tho oozo deeper and deeper, for I was Hearing tho gates through which tho fresh water of tho marshes was let In j and though thu water was now only to my middle, I mado my way with dilllculty, for thero was a perceptible current against mo. llrcatldiig wuuld have been easy, had It not been for my excitement nml now a horrid dread seemed to check the very net, for nil nt oiico I heard a heavy reverberating noiso, and Iho thought struck inu that they weru opening tho gates, ami in another instant tho fearful rii-u of fresh water would come bearing nil before it, oven our lives. In' tho ngoiiy of tho moment, I uttered n wild unearthly shriek, so fearful a cry, that I shrank against the side after- wards, nml clung to a blliny po-t, trem bling to hear thu btrangu whispering cehocs, as tho cry reverberated nlong thu place, and mingled with tho hipping rush of thu water, tho dripping from thu roof, and u loud sound ns of u little waterfall lu front. Now camo ngalii thu shape, of some thing round swimming up against me, and ns it struck my side, I beat at It savagely, though I smiled at my foolish tho oozu nt the bottom grow softer j M) I stopped, listening to tho heavy rushing of water lu front, where thu dralnago escaped, and washed heavily down, deepening the tunnel at the foot of tho doors; while in that hollow cavernous place, growing smaller moment by mo ment, the rushing sound wiis something hideous. Danger lu front, for thu great gates might at any tlmo boopencd; and danger behind, whero tho tldo was coining in ceaselessly, and deepening thu wntcr around mo with Its regular beating throb, mlnuto by minute. Thoughts of tho past und present seemed to surgo through my brain, so that I grew bewildered, and had any chanco of e-capo presented Itself, I could not have seized It, though I could not but tell myself that escape, wns Impos sible. A few minute, ton, twenty, thirty perhaps, and tho black darkness seemed to bo grqwlng blacker. " I must bo free," I muttered; and dragging Hudson's handkerchief from his neck, I bound it to my own, and then making them fast beneath his anus, felt among tho woodwork till I could find a place whero 1 could pass them through, so that I could secure him from slipping down, or being swept away by tho ebbing nml flowing of tho wntcr. I wns not long lu finding a place; but then the handkerchiefs were not long enough, and I hud to add ono from my pocket; then I left thopoorfellowqulto and half-hanging from one of the tim bers. And now I waded about, search ing for the mouth of tho alr-plpo, in tho bopo of shouting up It for succor, since I felt convinced that tho- tide would elfectually fill tho tuimel, whllo the very thought of tho gates being opened half maddened me; and heed less now of who might hear ine, so that they brought succor, I hunted almlos-ly about, a oiling and shrieking for aid. It was a fearful struggle between rea son and dread ; and forover dread kept getting the upper hand ; now it was a floating keg again and again making mo dash away ; now ono of tho pack ages burled In by the tide while tho strango drippings and hollow whis per' Ings were magnified into an infinity of horrors. Every monster with which imagination has peopled tho sen bccmod to ho there to attack mo, strange serpent or Hzard-liko beasts, slimy and scaled, thronging along tho ceiling or up tho sides, swimming around me, or burrow ing through tho sand. Moro than once I actually touched some swimming ob Joet, but tho contact was momentary, nnd tho stranger darted oil. Then rea son would gain supremacy for awhilo and trying to cool my throbbing brow with tho water, I thought ,of my posi tion, whispered a few prayers, and en deavored to compose myself. Thero was even now a doubt : tho tldo might not rl-e high enough to cover mo; cer tainly it was now nt my breast, and I wns standing witli dilllculty in tho shallowest placo I could pick. Tho next moment, us tho waves receded, It would fall to my waist ; but again It was up to my chest, nnd in snitu of glomus of hope, despair whispered truly that it was now higher up my chest than be fore. True; but ono wave In so many always camo higher than the others, Thd tldo might still be nt Its height, and this bo that particular wave. Down nguin nearly to my waist ; nnd then up, up, up, nearly to my chin, (la-hing away lionu and reason. Hut stay, another gleam: 1 was standing upon the soft mud, for hero thero was no sand : my feet must have sunk In I moved again and again, hut over witli tho sanio result ; and at last, des iralrlngly, I wascllnging to a shell-covered piece of timber at thu side, with tho water at my chin A noise, a clanking noiseas of chains rattling ami iron striking iron; and now hone lied, for I knew that this must bo tho opening of the doors of the gowt; but to my surprise, no rush of water followed; only u littlo came, which lapped again-t my lips, whllo a rush of nlrsmoto my forehead Voices, shouts, and Hod-on's nanio uttered ; but I could not shout in reply, Then my own nanio ; und I gavo somo Inarticulate ery by way nf answer. whlluoncu more rea-on seemed to get the better of tho dread, for 1 knew that tho far doors of tlie gowt had not been oneneil, and that they kept up tho drain ago whllo tho pair nearest to mo had only hud thu pressure upon them of tho wntcr escaping from tho tlrst. And new n coed bold swim, and I could havu been In the big pit-like opening between thu two pair of gates; but thu spirit was gone, the nervo was absent, and still clinging to the bhelly piece of tim ber, I closed my eyes, for 1 felt that, near as rescue seemed, I could do noth ing to aid it. As for Ilodson, in tills tlmo of dread, 1 had forgotten him, for gotten all but tho great horror of tlie water hip, lap, lapping ut my Up, and occasionally receding, Its fizzing spray In my nostrils. Higher and higher, covering my Hp; but by a despcratu effort I raised my self a few Inches, but only to go through thu snmo agonies again, as tho water still crept up and up, slowly but surely, whllo in tills my last ttrugglo iny head touched tho ton tlnibers, tho weed wa-hed and swept over It, and ns 1 forced my lingers round thu timbers to which 1 clung, my body lloated in the, WUiwi'llnr minute, and I felt that all was over, for tho water covered my faco once, twice; and half strangled, I wait ed gasping for tho third tlmo; but It camo not. Half a mlnuto passed, and then again It wa-hed over my face, seeming ns If It would never lenvo It ; but at lust it was gone, and too un nerved to hope, 1 awaited Its return, but It camo not. . 1 dared not hope yet, till I felt that tho water wns perceptibly lower, and then the reaction was so fearful that 1 could hardly retain my hold till tho tide had sunk so that, oiico moro i couiu us : : Josu HiLLiNfiM 06o.sU Talk.

Geeso stay well ; somo of our best bi ographers say 70 years ; nnd grow tulf to the last. They lay one egg nt once, nbout the size of a gooso egg, In which the go-slln Iz tho goose's babe. Tho gooso don't suckle his young hut turns him out tow pastur on sombody's vacant lot. Thoy seem tew lack wlsdum, but are considered sound on tho gooe. They are good eating, hut not good chawing, the reason of this remnins a profound secret tew this day. When the female gooso Iz ut work hatching, sho Iz a linrd bird tow please; she riles elenr up from tho bottom in a mliilt, and will fight a yoke of oxen, if they show her the least bit of sass. The geeso Iz excellent for feathers, which sho sheds every year by the handful. Thoy are also amphlblcussos besides several other kind of cuss. Hut they are morally sure about ono thing, they can haul ono leg up into tho body, nnd stand on tuther nwl day, nnd not touch anything with their hnnds. I take notis thnr ain't but dam few men that kau do tills.
