THE PILOT'S STORY.
Many years ago, when - I, was so
smalla boy as to hardly recollect it
now, my brother. and myself were
placed on board one of the St.lLaw
rence'river steamers as cabin boys and
waiters, With a view td become pilots
whbn, we were olden' . That was near
ly fifty years ago, and boats were riot
fitted .up in the style they - -are= now;
no were good pilots, a; thing to , be
found every, day. . NVe.-had run, up
and down .several times, when, cute
morning, about ton- o'clock, we stop-
P Brookville ..to take .on board,
as usual, crtiVern.tpent pilot to guide
us down. the
It-was late in the season ; and We
had a strong wind- the night before;
leaving the river refigh t :and oVr usa
abpilot had bard work. -to keep the
boat: hi the proper trace, while it
brought us into Brookville twuhours
later than the usual times. The clouds
oVerhead- still looked- cold and the
wind blew fresh and strong, when.
making-all possible haste, we again
put out of the harbor and were soon
bounding on our: Way.; Throughout
the'day T nolleedop anXioua.look on ,
the captaia's4itce, which 'bespoke his
Uneasiness about the .final termina
tion of our journey... _
We had a good ,many passengers
on board; and although we usually
reached - Montreal by four o'clock in
the afternoon, we should be delayed
until six, if not later. About ten
miles this.side of Lachine a storm of
rain commenced which rendered it
almost impossible to gifide the boat
at all; while the rapids of that name,
the most terrific in the whole river,
were yet to be passed. The pilot was
one-of the best on the route, but a
man of passionate temper, with a pe
culiar dogged look. Between him and ,
the ordidary boat pilot there existed I
an old grudge, which bad once or ,
twice led to. blows, when they came 1
in contact with, each other. That 1
Morning, while positing one of the
higher falls they stood together at
the wheel, when,.owing to the strong
current of the water and the, almost
exhausted strength of him* Who bad
guided us all night, One spoke Of the
wheet slipped from' his hands -and
nearly . caused an accident- of a pretty
serious nature. This annoyed his
companifm,=' and hard words passed
between them, since which time
sullen silence had been:preserved.-- I
When about two miles above the 1
Lachine rapids, some ofthe rigging
aloft gave way, and the night-pilot
mounted the upper deck with 'a lad
der and attempted to make it fast*:
The wind blew fiercely, and while ex
erting all his strength to stay the
mischief, he lost his hold and fell, the
ladder coming down directly upon' the
head of the government aid, wounding
him pretty severely. Not pausing 1
to look at the 'mischief, he seized the 1
unfortunate man, and, with almost
superhuman strength, he lifted him
above the boat railing. The other,
quickly guessing his meaning, wind
ing his arms around the neck of his
companion,
they fell together in the
bbiling flood flow. • We lowered the
life boat as quickly as possible, ropes'
were thrown out; and every effort put
forth to save them—but in vain.—
They
rose to the serface of the water,
still locked in each other's arms, and
then sunk.from - our-view forever.
The boat now rapidly rushed on, ;
coming near the frightful rapid, while
terror-struck faces were around us, at
the thought that no master -hand was
near to guide us through the dark
passage below. The scene which, we
bad just been .called witness,,only
made our situation more terrific,
whili wild and fearful. eyes around
us bespoke the agonizing apprehen
sion of the passengers and crew as
we went. plunging madly to destruc
tion, scarcely half .ft mile froin the
gulf, whose dashing wares we could
distinctly hear. The captain had
frankly told *us of his inability to
guide us through the perilous pas
sage, while deck, gangway, and cab
in were filled with men, women -and .
children, some of wham were pray
ing, some weeping, others intensely
crazy with agony too-intense for ut
terance.' Women eagerly eh:itched
their children, and husbands pressed
their wives to their bosoms, with' on
ly the hope of dying together. The
captain stood at the wheel assistedby
one of the passengers, vainly endeav
oring to hold out to the last and guide.
her until every effort should prove un
availing, while, with- strained eyes
and looks of despair, they gazed
through the almost blinding storm
upon the craggy rocks, lifting high
-their gray, bare beads out of the wa
ter, And upon which they expected
_ eve ry moment to, be, dashed to pie*.
Just as frenzy had begun to calm
down into sober, earnest preparation
,for thet:Troom' which awaited , them,
there came:siut of the state rooms- a
fair young.creature, over whose bead

when darkness ,shut the .last" rock

Who had so'bravely guided as through
the shkdow of death.
She would receive no thanlis 'for
herself but bidding us "give thanks
to Him whose voice ever ruleth the
storm," she retired to her state room
and was lost to view.
Atound.the cabin table that night,
about an hour before we entered the
harbor of Montreal, we learned her
history. She was the daughter of a
merchant who owned the line of boats,
one of which sate had, just saved from
ruin. Her mother died when she was
a child, and her fatter had yielded to
her wishes and aflowea her to accom
pany him in the boat of which he was
captain. 'By degrees she became ac'
quainted with..,every, bend in that
beautiful calm and storm
alike brought - stones of beauty to her
eye. ,'She was ,now on ,her way to
visit some friend . at Quebec, where
her-father proposed - joining her to
spend the winter: '
A gentleman artist sketched her
likeness on a leaf of his portfolio as
she stood at the wheel wrapped in
the pilot's ,coat,With the glass in her
hand, and her full length portrait still
graces the gallery of fine,arts in Mon.
treat. Many a rough hand grasped
the snowy fingers at parting, and ma
ny a blessing crowned the noble bead.
A. 'magnificent diamond bracelet
bearing upon an inside plate the name
of the vessel and date of the -decor
rence, was presented to her about a
week after her arrival in Quebec by.
the passengers who were on beard at
••
the time, while loud, and triumphant
were the praises borne to the ears of
' a fond parent, of the noble conduct
of that frail but fearless one who had
braved the danger before which stout

MARRIAGE OF Linn:Fß.
Some time after Luther came to
Idelanethon's house he requested to
see Catharine alone.
Margaret hastened to her and gave
her the message. She entreated her
friend to return with her.
"That - would not do, rcplied. Mar.
garet - , ,"he said expressly alone; he
undoubtedly has something very par
ticular to say. Now, Catharine, take-
caurage and open your heart."'
Poor Catharine went with tremb
lingsteps to the presence of Luther.
"I have sent for yau, my child,"
said he, "to converse on the subject
of matrimony; I hope you are con
vinced it is a. holy state.'
"Yes, sir," said Catharine.
"Are you prepared to embrace it?"
"No, sir," she replied.
"Perhaps you have scruples on the
score of monastic vows; if so, I will
mark some passages I have written
on that subject, that may sot your
mind at rest."
Catharine was silent.
"I perceive that I do not make
much progress in my, purpose, I
little used to these matters, and I had
better be direct."
"Do you mean to abide
by your
monastic vows, or will you marry,
like.a rational woman ?" -
Tilts diretot appeal seemed to rouse
her. eoaragft.
"Even Doctor Martin Luther has no
right," said she, "to ask that question
without explaining his motive.".
"Well said, Kate,"replied he laugh
ing ; "I must tell you, then."
"Therels a, person who would glad
ly take you,'for better and for worse.' "

"Now," she rePlieci,,".l need notasli

said 'Luther; "I suppose

..sl3tit. 'even ',tither 'stopped • emit,
surprised at Catharine's eibotion.
"Perhaps, - my dear," said he, kind.
ly, "I do wrong in speaking to you
myself; I had better commission Mar.
g aret. I suppose woMen converse on
tbese matters better -together, and
yet, as I have begun, I will-finish:—

unless you have scruples of conscience
about marrying. Izlo.iaa clever young
man, and I see, no objection. Ho is
very unlike hitt fanatic. uncle."
He might have tallied an hour with.:
out receiving -a ,reply. Catharine's
manner had changed ;• there was no
longer the emotion-or the blush.
‘,'Whatshalli tell him ?"
• "Anything you please," said, shei •
"so that kneVer see him again."
"Why, this is strange," said Lu
ther; "you did not seem to have sera.
pies of conscience•just now. My dear
Catharine you must notjorget that •
you have no• natural relations bere,,
and this young man can be a protee
tor to you," ..• . • ;
:"I wish you would not speak of
him," replied she. ; •
"Is there any. one else that, you like
better?" said Luther.i.
She made no reply.
"Nay, speak ; I have every dispo•
sition to serve you ; has any other
Made the. same proposition to you ?"
"Yes," said Catharine, with a little
womanly pride; "Counsellor Baum.
gartner has made the same .propo.
eals." , ' • . •
."Do ;you prefer him r . -
"Yes,' she replied rising,. "but
am as happy.as 1 ever expect to be.
My friends assure me that 1. am no
burden, but a help to them; and so
I wish you good morning."
Poor Catharine hastened to her
room:- Her dream was. over.; Lu
ther, the austere, the insensible re.
former, had awakened her from it.—
Margaret entered while her eyes were
yet rettwith weeping. She.tenderly
approached, and embraced her; but
neither exchanged a word. '
"There is no hope for Bodenstein,"
thought Luther, "it- is evident Baum
gartner is the. object. Catharine is a
child; if the elector dies she is with
out a support, except by the labor of
her hands, and they do not look as if
they .were made for labor. 1 will
write to Jerome Baumgartner; he is
well known as a young counsellor at
Nuremberg." Accordingly he wrote:
"152.4, October 12.
"If you would obtain Catharine Van Borne,
I hasten here before be is given to another who
proposes for her. She has not yet conquered her
love for you. I shall rejoice to see you united.
LUTHER."
CT ; The young counsellor received this
letter with surprise and incredulity.
The
.positiVe refusal of Catharine,
some months before, had left no doubt
on his .mind, and he thought the wis
est plan was to enclose the letter to
her, and inquire whether it was writ
ten with her sanction.
In the meantime Luther's friends
began to urge him to marry, particu
larly Melancthon. "You preach," said
he "what you do not practice."
He protested, however, that he
would not be caught in the snare;
that his , time was now fully occupied.
When Catharine received the letter
from her former lover, she was filled
With astonishment, and requested
Margaret to speak to Luther on the
subject. He said he bad done what
he thought was right and would be
agreeable to all parties ; hut he found
there was one science he did not un
derstand, the heart of a _woman.. -
"That is true," said Margaret, "or
you would long since have perceived
that Catharine was yours, and now
the mystery is out."
It required all her eloquence town
vince Luther of the truth of this as
sertion he was forty and Catharine
but little more than half that number
of years; that she could prefer him
to her young suitors seemed to him
incredible. Margaret, however, had
said it, and a new life opened to Lu
ther, in the affection of a young and
I beautiful woman:
When he spoke to Catharine again
on the subject of matrimony, he was
more successful than before.' He learn

which had become so much the reve

ANECDOTE QP OLD IRONSIDES
The following is well ealculated to
make the rising generation proud of
the noble spirits which shed so much
lustre on their country's name during
the merfforable war of 1812, with the
then proud mistress of the seas:
The most brilliant naval action of
the last war was undoubtedly_ that of
the old American frigate Constitution,
(44) commanded by Commodore Stew
art; whenisho captured the two Cor
vettes, Cyano and Levant, of a great.
ly
,aUperior force, each of them being
equal Au the old.fashioned thirty.
three'gun frigates. The handling of
the Ameriean frigate was throughout
scientific nand -unexceptionable.
By no muncevering:could either of
the British..vessels _obtain u posi•
tion to rake the ConStitution, shift
their ground as they would, Old Iron
side was between, blazing away upon
both vessels at the same time. Dar
ring the whole action, Stewart, in
stead of mounting the horseblock, sat
in a more exposed situation astride
the hammock nettinge; better. to ob
serve the mancenvering antagonists.
The Cyane was the first to strike
to Brother Jonathan—not an unn•
anal thing with British vessels during
the war. The first Lieutenant came
in haste to, the Commodore to an
nounce the feet.
'The starboard ship has struck, sir,'
said the officer.
'1 know it sir,' replied the Commo
dore. 'the battle is just half won.'
'Shall I order the hand to strike up.
Yankee Doodle, sir,' 'inquired the
Lieutenant.
Here the Commdore took a 'huge
pinch of *miff and then answered
quickly—
'Had we not better whip the other
first, sir?'
'Ay, ay, sir.' replied the Lieutenant
taking the hint, and went to his
quarters.
In a short time afterwards the Re
cant lowered the cross of old England
to the stars and stripes, and the bat
tie was ended - . • The Lieutenant be,
ing somewhat rebuked at his prema
ture exultation upon the surrender of
the first vessel, was rather shy of IT.
proaching his commander again, but
Stewart beckoning to him, said, with
a smile:
'Don't you think . the band had bet.
ter strike up Yankee Doodle now sir?,
In an instant that spirit stirring
strain was floating on the breeze,
played as no other than Yankee band
can play it, and the gallant crew
shouted forth their cheers of victors'
us no other than a Yankee crew can
shout.

The boys—their brothers, have ne
such trouble; why should they? The
question may well be - asked by every
thoughtful parent.. I answer •that
improper dress and other physiologi
cal errors, in which girls constantly
indulge, produce this mischief. The
dress of the girl Is always tighter
than' her brother's and this is begun
while she is quite young, 'to give her
a form,' the mother says, as if God
did not not do this when he made the
child.
This constant • pressure upon the
muscles of the spine, whi eh are de
signed to keep it straight, cause's at).
sorption of those muscles, and as
the right arm is used more than, the
left- the spine is drawn under the right
shoulder blade, thus 'making it pro:
jest: •The muscles are so weakened
by absorptions, they cannot bring the
spine back to its proper position, and
you have a case of lateral curvature.
In addition to this tight dress 1
have seen girls of 13 and 14 with cot
set; on. Often these are adopted by
thoughtless mothers, in the hope to
straighten the child, but under their
cruel pressure, the difficulty rapidly
increases till the poor deformed girl is
sent to a spinal institution to be tree
ed. While this difficulty is gradual
ly increasing, the young girl is sent
to school to spend Sae or six hours
each day bending over FL low desk, and
when she returns home, instead of be
ing allowed to play ball or any active
game in the open air, as her brothers
are, is placed on a hig-11„piano stool,
where her toes but just touch the floor
with nothing to protect her back. In
this position she must sit one long
painful hour. •
Do you wonder she has- a crooked
spine 7 I wonder that any escape,
for all are .obliged to pass through the
same killing ordeal.—[LeWis' Gym,

CATITION TO MOTHERS.—It is a very
common thing to see mothers and
servant girls pushing along the side
walks the little carriages in which
they are giving infants an airrng on
pleasant days. An exchange remarks
that the practise is a very dangerous
one, and is liable to do great and per
mament injury to the child. The po
sition of a child riding backward in
stead of forward, is an unnatural ono,
and directly affects the brain. Some
grown persons even cannot ride back
ward
.in a rairoad car without experi
encing a sense of faintness, and to
expect a child to do, what a strong a•
daft cannot, is unreasonable, to say
the least. It is believed by medical
writers that infants have died from
disease produced by being ridden
backward.
How TO CURE CANCEL—The Milwatikis
Democrat states that some eight mouths
ago, Mr. T. B. Mason, of that city, ascer
tained that he bad a cancer on his face the
size of a pin. It was cut out by Dr. Wal
cott, and the wound partially. healed. Sub
sequently it grew again, and while he was
at Ci ciunati on business, it attained the
size of a hickory-nut. He remained there
since Christmas under treatment, and is
now perfectly cured. The process is this
A piece of sticking plaster was put over
the cancer, with a circular piece cut out of
the centre a little larger than the cancer,
so that the cancer and a small circular rim
of healthy skin next to it was exposed.
Then a plaster made of chloride of zinc,
blood root and wheat flour, was spread on
a piece of muslin the size of this circular
opening, and applied to the cancer for
twenty-four hours. On removing it, the
cancer will be found burnt into and appear
of the color and hardness of an old shoe
sole, and the circular rim outside of it will
appear white and parboildd, as if scalded
by hot steam.' The wound is now dressed,
and the outside rim soca separates, and
the cancer conies out in a hard lump, and
the place I eels up. The plaster kills the
mincer, so that it sloughs out like aead
flm,h, and never grows again. The remedy
was discovered by Dr. Fell, of London,aud
has been used by him forsiz or eight years,
with unfailing success, and n , ,t a case has
been known of the reappearance of the can
cer when this remedy has been applied.
%Er The Commencement of Franklin and
Marshall College took place last week.
Several young men from Lebanon county
were among the graduates. The Express
thus notices their efforts on the occasion :
The Salutatory was delivered by Sam
uel B. Reber, of Lebanon, Pa. He pro
posed to deliver an oration cm the Greek
Ode, :•nd paid .a tribute to its author, and
to the religious character of his poetry,
whieh,had ..e been born in aChristian age,
would,have been the light of Christianity.
Au excellent production.
Simeon H. Guilford delivered an oration •
on Mount Vernon. All countries have
their sacred spots, where their great me■
repose, but we have the residence of the
noblest patriot the world ever saw. He
referred to the time when the notes of the
bugle called that great man forth, again
and again, to come back again victorious
and crowned with glory. And afterwards,
when he had served our nation at the coun
cil board, he again retired to its peaceful
shades to die. After that sad event,,it
gradually suffered from neglect, until Wo
mau rede , med it, and made it the property
of the nation. Here, upon his own estate,
stands his tomb ; here rest the remains of
one honored in life and revered in death.
He paid a noble tribute to him whose ashes
there repose. He referred to the unosten
tatious yet solemn manner in which Eng
land, through her royal son, paid deserved
reverence to that pure patriot. A very
good production, and delivered in a very
distinct manner—altogether an excellent
effort.
The afternoon Salutatory was delivered
by John P. Stein, of Annville, Pa., in a
clear, loud voice. He thanked the friends
of the instAntion, both from this city and
abroad, for their presence, and tendered
them a cordial welcome. To be able to
contend with ambition and passion so as
to stand always by the right, a man should
be thoroughly and properly educated, He
laid special stress upon the neglect of fam
ily education. Were strict obedience en
forced in. the famil,y and the school, there
would be few disobedient and disloyal citi
