THURSDAY EVENING, JAN. 20, 1880.
A Hard Swim.
There are few things mere delightful
than te be at sea en a fine summer day,
with a bright blue sky above and a bright
blue sea below, while the fresh breeze fills
your sails, and the great smooth waves
toss you lightly along, and spatter you at
times with their glitting spray, like frolic
some giants. But it is a very different
thing te be out in the teeth of a real equi
noctial gale, with the whole sky black as
ink, and the whole sea one sheet of boiling
foam, and a huge wave coming thundering
ever thb deck every ether minute, sweep
ing everything before it, and making the
whole vessel tremble from stem te stern.
Se, doubtless, thought Olaf Petersen,
captain and owner of the Norwegian
schooner Thyra, of Bergen, when just such
a steim caught him hall way across the
North Sea. It did seem rather hard, after
escaping all the storms of blustering
March, that fresh, genial April should
serve him such a trick ; but se it was, and
instead of having a short and easy run
northeastward te Bergen, as he expected,
he found himself flying away te the west,
driven by a gale which seemed strong
enough te blew him right round the world,
if it did net happen te sink him by the
way.
All the sails had long since been taken
in, and the little craft was scuddim; under
bare poles, no none being en deck but the
two men at the wheel (who had quite
enough te de keeping her head straight)
and the captain himself. A line pictuie
Olaf Petersen would have made as he
steed there, with the spray rattling like
hail upon his drenched tarpaulins, and his
clear bright eye looking keenly out through
the wet hair that was plastered ever his
face. It might be seen by the firm set of
his mouth that he meant te fight it out
while a plank would swim ; but he looked
grave and anxious, nevertheless.
And well he might. This time it was
net only his vessel and the lives of himself
and his crew that were in danger ; his
young wife was en beard, after whom the
Thyra had been named, and it was new tee
late te blame himself for having granted
her entreaty te be allowed te sail along
with him, instead of being left at home by
herself for se many weary weary weeks,
without knowing whether he was alive or
dead.
Still it blew harder, and harder yet.
Had net the Thyra been as geed a sea sea
beat as ever swam, it would have been
all ever with her. Even as it was, she
could barely held her own against the
mountains of water that came plunging
ever her deck with a lerce that seemed
sufficient te rend a rock. Mere than once
the captain's stiffened fingers were almost
tern from their held upon the weather
rigging, while the men at the wheel were
under water again and again. Vainly did
Olaf strain his eyes te windward in the
hope of seeing a break in the inky sky.
All was grim and gloomy, and amid the
blinding spray and the deepening darkness
it was hard te tell where the sea ended
and the sky began.
All that night and all the next morning
they dieved blindly onward, net knowing
where they were : for the sun had net been
seen for two whole days, and no observation
could be taken. But Captain Petersen,
who had these setts by heart, began te
fear that they were being driven in among
the Orkney Isles, and he knew only tee
well what chance the stoutest thtee-decker
would have against these tremendous
rocks with such a sea running.
Toward afternoon the wind fell sudden
ly, though the sea still ran high ; but new
came .something worse than ail one of
these terrible Northern fogs which turn
day into night, and make the eldest sailor
as helplecs as a child. The lanterns were
lit anil heisted, the ship's bell was kept
constantly telling, and the captain ordered
up two "leek-outs" beside himself ; but
the fog grew thicker and thicker, till these
en these en the forecastle could barely
make out the foremast.
Ha ! what was that huge dim dim shad
ow that loomed out suddenly just ahead,
like a threatening giant ? Could it be a
rock ?
" Pert your helm ! pert ! " reared the
captain, at the full pitch of his voice.
But it was tee late. The next moment
there came a deafening crash, a shock that
threw them all oft" their feet, and the ves
sel, with her bows stove in, was sawing
and grinding upon the sharp rocks that
had pierced her through and through, with
the water rushing into her like a cataract.
The next few minutes were like the con
fusion of a troubled dream a shadowy
vision of a huge dark mass overhead, a
short fierce struggle amid whirling foam
and broken timbers and then the captain
and wife found themselves upon one of the
higher ledges, hardly knowing hew they
had reached it, while the crew, with bleed
ing hands and sorely bruised limbs, drag
ged themselves painfully up after them.
They were net a moment tee seen.
Scarcely had the last man gained the ledge
when the mountain wave took the vessel
aback. She slid off' the rocks which had
held her up, and went down se quickly
that the captain, turning at the shouts of
his men, just caught a glimpse of her top
mast vanishing under water.
The situation of the shipwrecked crew
was new dreary enough. Alene upon a
bare rock in the midst of a stormy sea,
with no means of escape, and no feed but
the few brine-soaked biscuits in their
pockets, there seemed te be nothing left for
them but te give themselves up and die.
But, of all men living, a sailor is the least
apt te think his cas hopeless, however
hard it may appear. Having just been
saved from apparently certain death, the
stout-hearted seamen were in no mood te
despair se easily ; and settling themselves
snugly iu a sheltered cleft of the rock, they
ate their scanty meal (a goad share of
winch had been reserved ler Jlrs. Peter
sen) as cheerily as if they were lying at
anchor in Bergen harbor.
Just as the meal ended, the fog sudden
ly rolled away like a curtain, and the last
gleam of the setting sun showed them an
island several miles te the north, en the
shore of which the keen-eyed captain made
out a few white specks that looked like
fishermen's huts.
" Lads, " cried he, "if the wind rises
again, it'll blew us all into the sea ; and
even if it don't, we shall freeze te death if
wc stick here all night, with no room te
move about. There's just one chance left
for us, and I'm going te take it. Some
body must swim te that island for help,
and as I believe I'm the best swimmer,
among us, I'll be the one te de it. "
"Olaf! "cried his wife, catching him
by the arm, "you won't think of it ! It's
certain death !"
"Pooh, pooh!" said the captain, cheeri
ly. " I haven't swum across Bergen Bay
and back for nothing. It's certain death
te sit here and freeze, if you like ; but
you'll seen see me coming back with
half a dozen stout fellows, and we'll all
have a geed supper before the night's out.
Keep your heart up, dear. Ged bless
you !"
The next moment he was in the water,
and vanishing, from the eager eyes that
watched him into the fast-falling shadows
night. Then came a long silence. The
men looked at each ether, no one daring 1e
utter the thought which was in every one's
mind, while Thyra Petersen hid her face
in her hands, and prayed as she had never
prayed before.
Meanwile Captain Petersen, who had
told no mere than the truth in calling him
self a geed swimmer, was breasting the
waves manfully. But he seen found the
difference- between attempting a long swim
when quite fresh and vigorous, and doing
the same thing after a hard night's work
en short allowance of feed, and with limbs
stiffened by wctand cold. Moreover, the
sea, although much quieter than it had
been, was still rough enough te tell sorely
against him. ' Before he had gene a mile
he felt his strength beginning te fail ; but
he thought of his wife, and of all the ether
lives that new depended upon him alone
and strujrjrled despcratelv onward. But
new came a new trouble. In the deepening
darkness the island for which he was head
ing seen disappeared altogether, and he
found himself swimming almost at ran
dom. Every stieke was new a matter of
life and death, and yet each of these
strokes might be taken in the wrong di
rection. It was a terrible thought.
Heavier and heavier grew his cramped
limbs, harder and harder pressed the mer
ciless sea. ne sank rose sank again,
and as he came up once mere, lifted his
voice in a despairing cry, feeling that all
was ever.
"Hist, laddies! there's some ane skir
ling " (screaming), shouted a hearse voice
near him.
There was a sudden splash of ears, a
clamor of many voices, and then a strong
hand clutched him as he sank for the last
time. Se utterly was he spent that he
could barely force out the few words
needful te tell his story ; but these were
quite enough for the Orkney fishermen,
why at once put about and steered straight
for the rock.
It was a glad sight for the weary
watchers, when the beat came gliding to
ward them out of the darkness. But
when they recognized their captain, whom
tliey had long since given up for lest, they
gathered their last strength for a feeble
cheer, while peer Thyra sprang into the
beat, and threw her arms round his neck
without a word.
Se ended Captain Petersen's daring
swim, which brought him geed in a way
that he little expected ; for when the news
of the feat reached Bergen, the towns
people at once started a subscription te
buy him another vessel, iu which he Is
voyaging new.
Protect Your Street Trees.
Ve have en mere than one occasion call
ed attention te the singular fact of people
who would give many a dollar for a geed
shade tree before their doers, yet neglect
the very small cost that will protect them
against the ravages of heiv.es ; for there is
veiy little doubt that it is from the horse,
and net from any inability of trees te gre v.
that we find trees almost entirety absent
from the elder portions of cities and towns.
We have seen mauy fiuc trees killed in this
way and wc have mere than one new in
our mind's eye that will in a little while go
in the same way unless at once protected.
A geed shade tree in front of a dwelling is
worth at least a hundred dollars, and
many people would net be deprived of
them for anything like this price, for it
takes half a generation te grew a new one.
Yet these very people will see the bark of
their trees eaten oil' without a thought that
it is damaging the tree, and would hitch
their own horse te another's tree under the
same circumstances.
There are only two ways in which one
can preserve the luxury of shades trees be
fore his deer in the public streets, and that
is first by the investment of a few dollars
in tree-guards or tree protectors of some
kind; and secondly by the universal
spreading of the knowledge that the bark
is the life of the tree. If half way round
is taken away, the tree has only half the
proper chance of getting feed, and the
next year succeeding the less it will net
grew well. The leaves keep of a sickly
tint all summer, and fall early in autumn.'
Besides this the growth is proportionately
weak. When the bark is wholly taken off"
in a complete circle, there is no mere hope
for the tree's life. All connection with the
roots are severed se far as a long contin
uance of life is cSncerncd.
These things are of course known te all
our intelligent readers ; but experience
shows hew few ethers knew them and
we hope, for the geed of the whole of us
who enjoy street trees, all our readers who
knew these things will turn missionaries
and teach these who don't. And te show
that we practice what wc preach, the trees
in front of our own premises, new about
or nearly a feet iu diameter, which have
been jn'etcctcd by boxes from the day they
were planted, are about te have new boxes
placed around them, the present ones
showing sijjns of decay. Germanteicn

An Incorrect Statement.
Gcrmantewn Telegraph.
Mr. Laucr, the famous brewer of Read
ing. Pa., claims also te be a farmer, and
makes speeches for he is a geed orator
at the agricultural meetings of the grand
old county of Berks. At a late meeting
he is reported as saying that " in Eng
land all the farming land is owned by
150 noblemen. There the peer remain peer
and the rich remain rich, while in Amer
ica any man who cheeses can become the
owner of real estate." We think that Mr.
L. is tee well informed a man te have made
such a statement. The truth is, a great
deal of this kind of nonsense gets into the
newspapers, and some people believe it.
The nobility of England have enough te be
forgiven as monepolizers of the land ; but
there arc a great many people (farmers) in
England, who are no mere noblemen than
we are who own and cultivate their own
land. Neither is it true that the peer in
England always remain peer ; and every
body knows that it is equally untrue that
" in America every man who cheeses can
become the owner of real-estate." There
is net every one who cheeses can afford te
go West and take up government land as a
free gift. It takes money te de that, put up
the buildings, stock the farm, and support
a family for at least a year. Of course the
chances here are as a hundred te one com
pared te these in England, and these
chances will go en increasing until the laws
of primogeniture arc abolished there.
The Clairgeau Pear.
Gcrmantewn Telegraph.
We notice that this beautiful pear is rec
emmended as worthy of cultivation. We
knew net what the experience of the writer
may be with it, but se far as our own gees,
liaving grown it for ever twenty years en
quince, we would net like, as an honest
man, te advise anyone te waste his time
and ground with it. There is no question
ing one thing about the Clairgeau, that it
is one of the largest and handsomest pears
grown ; but when this is said, all is said in
its favor. Up te last year, with a yearly
crop upon two small trees generally hav
ing te remove mere than half of them we
never hrd a specimen fit te eat. Last
year there were three or four that became
soft and rather geed ; but that is all.
There arc se many varieties of pears
which arc hardy and geed because of
luscious fruit, that we are net willing te
see inferior kinds recommended without a
word or two in opposition.
Hew Slate Pencils ere Made.
In making slate pencils broken slate is
put into a mortar run by steam, and
pounded into small particles. Then it
gees into a mill and runs into a "belting "
machine, such as is used in flouring mills,
where it is "belted," the fine, almost im
palpable, flour that results being taken te
a mixing tub, where a small quantity of
steatite flour, similarly manufactured, is
added, together with ether mate
rial, the whole being made into a
stiff' dough. This dough is kneaded
thoroughly by passing it several times
between iron rollers. Thence it is con
veyed te a table where it is made into
"charges," or short cylinders, four or five
inches thick, and containing eight te
twelve pounds each. Four of these are
placed in a strong iron chamber or "retort,"
with a changeable nozzle, se as te regulate
the size of the pencils, and subjected te
tremendous hydraulic pressure, underwhich
the composition is pushed through the
nezzle iu the shape of a long cord, and
passed ever a sloping tabic slit at right
angles with the cords te give passage te a
knife which cuts them into lengths. They
are then laid en beards te dry, and, after a
few hours, are removed te sheets
of corrugated zinc, the corrugation serv
ing te prevent the pencils from warp
ing during the process of baking, te
which they are next subjected in a kiln,
into which superheated steam is intn
duced in pipes, the temperature being
regulated according te the requirements
of the article exposed te its influence.
Frem the kiln the articles go te the finish
ing and packing room, where the ends are
thrust for a second under rapidly revolving
emery wheels and withdrawn neatly and
smoothly pointed. They are then packed
in pasteboard boxes, each containing one
hundred pencils, and these boxes are in
turn packed for shipment in wooden boxes,
containing one hundred each, or ten thou
sand pencils in a shipping box. Nearly
all the work is done by boys, and the cost,
therefore, is light.
