Samjvsui liegan to re treat slowly "toward the door, keeping his eye npou the insane tuan to guard against being attacked unexfieewdly. When he reav-heil the d-ek he saw Sea man, so be says, place his hand in his pistol jwket. aud then, fearing for his life, he drew his p.stol—which he had previously borrowed from "he stewsnl —and flnsl at Seaman, striking him ou the head behind tlie far. The shot w board through the vessel, but only one man, tteorge Hicks, says tliat he saw the shot tired or heard anything of the conversation that preceded it. After lieingsliot Seaman ruslnsl wildly to the dy*k, but fell ilead in his tracks when he ha.l but a few steps. The crew, it seems, let the body lie w here it fell for some four hours, during which time the proposition that the dead man's flesh be eaten was discussed. After the body hail lain in a pool of blmxl for alxint two hours, Sampson, who had tired the fatal shot, was given an axe by the mate, ami, approaching the corpse, severed the bead from the dead man's body. A fie* the completion of this fearfnl task, the head ws wrap ped in canvas by Herbert and Barrett and thrown overboard. Harrett then by means of a kuife stripped off as much of the flesh from the legs and trunk as he could, anil when he finally ceased the bntchery, the flesh he had removed wa> placed in a barrel and salted down, and the mutilated carcass was wrapped, like the head, in canvas and thrown overboard. Some of the flesh was irn mediuiely afterward removed to the galley, where it was thrown into a pot and parboiled, and then fried in a pan. Most of the crew turned sick at the thought of snch unnatural food, but their hunger at length prevailed over ail qualms of conscience and revulsions i f taste, and they partook of two meals. Their experience of the cannibalistic re past was variciL Barrett, who butcher ed the corpse, and who ate about a pound and a hall of the ffewh, declare-1 that it tasted as " good as any beef steak he ever ate." Tlie necessity for partaking of such food, however, ended on the following day, when, after forty five davs of almost unexampled suffer ing, th crew of the jiartially dismantled and fast sinking vessel sighted the Speedwell anil soon they were safe ou luard the vessel and bonud for New Y >rk.—.Vcr York Timet. Mexican Adobe Hon*?*. A correspondent traveling in Arizona Terrtory says : Adolie houses are very comfortable for this dry climate where there arc only two short rainv seasons, which occur in the winter and summer. The bottom lands contain adobe clay, which is wetted and moulded into sizes to suit the fancy; of four inches thick by eight and twelve, to the seme thickness by twelve and twenty inches. The ado)>e brick, after being well sun-dried, are laid up with the clay mortar for only one story. Tiien comes the roof; poles arc laitl across, and on small brush or the spines of the giant cactus are thickly spread; over the whole is laid a thick coating of the adobe mud which, when dried, sheds rain perfectly. There are, of course, many rude places improvised for local habitations, which contain so small a stock of house-keeping articles, that the "Greaser" can, at any moment's notice, pack them and his family on a barrow and travel. The well built hours has its fireplace, where, with the small est possible fire, the cooking is done, which does not embrace much of n va riety. The bean pot, coffee pot and tin cup, a piece of sheet iron, to l>ake the "tortia" on, will comprise the entire outfit. The tortia is a novelty, and must be eaten to be fully appreciated. The Mexican woman mixes the dough to rhe proper consistency and will rapidly form, in her hand*, pieces of it no thicker than paper, and eighteen inches iu diameter, which are quickly baked. With the pot well charged with beans, onions. Chili peppers, and some ox iard ithe Mexicans rarely use that of the hog), the pile of tortias at hand, arouud which they sit on the floor, having no table, or other ware of any kind. Strips of tortia torn off can be easily formed into spoons, which are edible. Even thfe well-to-do class seem to disdain the use of chairs, tables, or bedsteads. I was fortunate enough to accept the hospital ity of a "Gringo" who had been there some time, and had a few of these—hi them—useless luxuries. A Sensational Wedding. A very singular wedding is reported as haying lately occurred in a small town in England, famous for its hunting parties. The bride being u celebrate*! sportswoman the ladies present won riding habits and the gentlemen hunt ing suits with high top boots and spurs. While the ceremony was in progress the chnrch was crowded with hunts men in red coats, which contrasted strangely with the I bride's orange blossoms ami satin dress with a long white velvet train, aud the toilets of the twelve bridesmaids, which were of " poult de sole, " trimmed with fur and branches of holly. After the ceremony and breakfast the whole party rode off, followed by grooms in livery, a pack of hounds, and hundreds of huntsmen dressed in scarlet The effect of this spectacle is said to have been novel and magnificent. Three different scenes of the wedding, the view in the church, and the party at breakfast, and in front of the chateau, with the hunters advanc ing on horseback to congratulate the. bride, are to be painted and presented to the bride, while small copies will be kept for the gnests.— Philadelphia' Telegraph. READING IN BED INDUBIOUS -Reading while lying down is very injurious to the eyes, for the reason that the internal structure of the eye being generally of of a soft and yielding nature, the lens drops a little back from its true position, and greater effort on the part of the cil iary muscles, and consequently great strain becomes necessary for focusing the objects on the retina.

A New Breed of C at*. lii the little manufacturing village of Queechy, Vt., has arrived n new breed of cats. Last Hiring they made their first appearance. Several old family cats, all of them quite aged, gave birth to litters of kittens of a very peculiar appearance. They were long-haired, with large legs and long claws, and very heavy tails. One specimen in each lit ter was raised, no as id see this freak of nature in maturity. At six months of age they were very large. Some of them are striped like a lion, others are quite black. The fur is from throe to six inches in length all over the body ; a tuft of long hair rims the eats. The head is like that of any cat, except the eyes of all of them have a wild or fright ened look. At the neck the fur stands out like a wide rufße, the tail is covered with long fur, and would measure, per haps, six inches iu circumference. All of them are very active, and will spring from the floor to the hip of u room eight or nine feet high with perfect ease. When frightened they nre disposed to turn and HIIOW fight, and they will not permit much petting.— Philadelphia Ledger. A tlkkiui.l, fight with a UK A It.
