MY ,GREAT.GBANDFATHEB.
His Remarkable Voyage.
BY JOLIN QUILL
You see, said my great-grandfather, who,
had - gathered a crowd of his friends around
him at the grocery store in Darby, one even
ing; you see I was once a sailor before the
mast, on a small Nessel which was cruising
about in the South'Atlantic Ocean. ,
She was a very small vessel, and so frail
that I was afraid all the time that she would
go to pieces, but she didn't. It happened one
day that I was sent aloft to nail a, blopk, of
some kind on the top of the mainmast, and. as
we had •no hatchet I took an axe. I hit the
mast three or four pretty stiff knocks, when
all of a sudden I thought I felt her go down
with a jerk. But she looked all right and
thought it couldn't possiblyl
, be. So carne
...down and said nothing about it.
Three or four days afterwards the mate say*.
to the captain : . . •
"Tap., queer we don't sight land by this
time."
"Very queer," says the captain.
"And what's funny about it is that for seve
ral days past my instruments haVe made us
out to be inprecisely the same latitude and
longitude."
"Maybe something's the matter with the
sun."
"Or perhaps the parallels of latitude have
shifted. "
"Ormaybe you've made a mistake in your
figures."
"I didn't think of that," says the mate.
So they took another observation, and found
that they were in precisely the same old . place.
Everybody was frightened, and it was not
until after a close examination that it, was
at last ascertained that I had actually
driven that mainmast through the bottom of
the ship7ifito the mud, where it had stuck fast,
and that (there old tub had been spinning
.round *and round, like a weather-cock on a
steeple, all this time, without anybody know
ing it.
To say that.the captain was mad, don't 4137
scribe his condition. He roared around so
about it, that I gpt scared, and hid myself in
an old cask in the hold. There I laid all day,
when it was decided to heave part of the cargo
overboard to lighten ship, and the cask I was in
was headed up, and 1 afraid to budge, and the
whole concern was heaved into the water.
1 was in that barrel about four days. It was
a little crowded, to be, sure, and it would roll
some, but on the whole I was comfortable.
One day I felt myself. tossed on shore, and
then I was so certain of saving my life, that I
just turned over and took a first-class nap.
1 was waked by something tickling my face.
At first I thought it Was a mosquito, but then
I remembered that no mosquito could possibly
have got into that barrel anyhow. I brushed
at it again, and caught it. It was a straw. I
gave it a jerk. Something knocked against the
barrel outside, and I heard the word—
"Tuyfel!"
Then another straw was inserted, and I
pulled that harder yet. Something struck the
barrel again,
and I heard this exclamation :
"Der Tuylel!"
,Then another straw was put in, and I
caught bold of it, and saw that it came through
the bung-hole, and there was a man outside
trying to suck something or other through that
straw, and every time I gave her a jerk it jam
med his old nose fiat against the staves. So I
gave ller one more pull, luid then kicking the
head out of the cask, I got, out and said to this
felkiw :
"Look a here, what in the deuce are you try
ing to do, anyhow ..)"
"Acin," says he, shaking his head.
"W hat are you fooling around here for,

"..I . < in," ;says he.
"'tint makes eighteen," says I.
, •X< in." says he.
"'I went y-seven," says I. "Cu on; I'll add it
up for you. a lightning calculator, I ain."
• "'1 hirty-six," 1 said. "You appear to be a
regular original old first, nine. What club do
you belong to anyway ?"
says lie, still shaking his head.
"Forty-fi-7. Just then it flashed across
my mind that he was a Dutchman.
"Leer," says 1, to try him.
I had touched a sympathetic chord in his
nat tire.
! yaw ! yaw I" says he. "Ila! ha! dat
As _gout! 0, yaw I" and we rushed into each
other's arms and wept..
1 lidt that I had found a friend.
1 sincerely wished he had been my long lost
brother, with the regular thing in strawberry
marks on his arm, only I never had a lirother,
and lie was never long lost; and never had any
thing on his arm.
But this German was a good fellow. He
lived in Dutch Guiana, and had a wife, and
three pretty daughters who were so precisely
alike that 1 could never tell one from the
other. I fell in love with one of them; I never
could tell which, so I courted them all three,
just as they happened to come along.
One day they all came in together. I tried
to be sweet with the one I thought was the
right girl, and the other two got so mad that I
was afraid they:d burst some blood vessel or
other. Then all three of them said I had
promised to, marry them, and all three of them
repeated the fond words I had whispered to
them,
and accused me of treachery.
It looked stormy for me. There was en
tirely too much love's chidings for comfort. I
then offered to marry them all three; and to
take them to Salt Lake; or to cut myself in
three pieces : or to drown myself with them
and perish in four watery graves.
Respectfully but firmly declined.
Then they all went out. After a bit one
came in and said :
"Abijah, dear, let us elope together,and leave
these horrid women, and go to some sunny
clime, where we can be happy in the fullness of
each other's love."
"I will think it over; my angel," said I.
She passed out. Then one of them.came in
again.
"Abijah, dear, let us fly together, and leave
these horrid winnen,-and go to some sunny
clime,where wb can be happy in the fullness of
eachnther's love"
"I say I will think - it over, - my own angel."
And she disappeared. But she seemed am
ons, so in she comes again.
"Abijah, dear, let us fly together, and leive
these horrid women, and go to some sunny
clime, where we can be happy in the fullness - of
each other's love."
"Look here, now, you've said that three
times, and that's enough. My mind fully
grasps the idea. I say I'll think it over."
"Why, I never said it before," says she:
"The mischief you didn't," says I.

"Aw—aw—aw—aw !" groaned I, in despair,

The thought suggested itself to him that I

ART ITEMS.
—The Waxy for November thus speaks of
a painting recently purchased by Mr.
of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh :
"One of the prettiest pictures in the (lircd
ler) gallery is called 'The Field Oracle.' It
was painted by Comte Calix. The incident,
a young girl pulling a flower to pieces awl
saying 'he loves me—loves me not,' is cer
tainly commonplace enough; but the artist has
made it a perfect little getu by his tender and
beautiful mode of eatment."
—The same magazine has, this tribute to IV.
T. Richards, apropos of his piciure of Lake.
Placid, Achrohdacks; in Uoupil's gallery:
"IV. T. Richards, of Philadelphia, whose
work has all the minute finish of the Pre-
Raphaelite.School, with none of its hard ugli
ness and repulsive precision, has a beauti
ful landscape at .Encedler's gallery—a view
of Lake Placid. Is is a charming piece
of work, truthful to 'nature, and foil of deep
poetic sentiment. The genuine Pre-I;apliaelites
dispute the right of Mr. Richards to be named
as a disciple of their school, on the grinuld, it
is to be presumed, that his pictures'are always
so much more beautiful than theirs. They
ought to be thankftil that he has shown how
their principles call be carried out withoßt
sacrificing beauty and sentiment."

The cultivation of the soil in Aluleira` is at
present undergoing one of those radical and
remarkable changes which in times past have
characterized the history of the island. There
is a tendency to effect a complete mbstitution
of the.sugar-cane for the vine. For 400 years

This time, however, the chaugAs poiripted by
no snch necessity, but rather by a knowledge
of the value of Madeira wine, and a growing
demand for that produce by the preference of
the people, andby the undoubted cipacity ,of
the soil ha its drypess,, its sloping tisposition,
and general qualities to support the vine, and,
perhaps also by an instinctive foresiht of the
eventual, and not distant, ternanatiOn of a
culture -exhausting •in its nacre, • and
coniparatively • unassisted. by krt. The
failure of the • sugar-cane is natural
and inevitable in a soil unregenerate) after the
removal ofa bulky crop. The vine is already
covering the lawl in districts formeny known
to be best adapted to it ; and, moreover, such
is the industry of like people, ground which, in
the memory of maxi, has never before been
planted, is now coveof.cl with the light refresh

iFABIU:LOIUS FORTUNES.
P&plesion of -the Fallacy of Extraordi.
nary, Brit!sit Estates.
Why is it that ;so many persons Persuade
themselves that there are 'large estates in Eng
land coming to them by inheritance? Ilas any
one owing allegiance to the Government of
the United States ever received' property from
England? . Strange as it may seem, this no
tion, of inheriting property prevails to more.
than half of our New England familleS. Every
genealogist of much experience will not only
bear witness to the correctness of this state
ment, but
,also to the ' fact that it is
almost impossible to obtain information
for the simple purpose of family history, by
reason 'of the withliolding of facts by some
members of these property families, for fear
they may lose their share of the mythical for
tune in Englan.d. In some families this notion
prevails hi one . branch only, and it is kept a
profound secret. rom the other branches lest
the fortune should come to be diirided.
Whether it be honest for part of a family to
to - e w a. e ongs , — eoll—
of our readers, with this observa
tion, that persons intrusted with the distribu
tion of the property of an intestate seldom
commit so great an error as to pay the whole
to a part of the family.
We have sought far and wide, and so have
others of our acquaintance, to find a single
family that ever got a penny of their supposed
English fortune, and without success.. The
name and residence of such a family cannot be
foiled; and yet we hear' these deluded people
talk confidently of their fortune in England.
The truth and the fact is, that no such for
tunes exist in England for any faindies here ;
and even if they did, no person not owing alle
giance to England could inherit them. 'Blacks
stone,in his Commentaries on the Laws of Eng
laud, states the law thus: "Aliens are incapable
of taking by descent or inheritance; for they
are not allowed to have any inheritable blood
in them. WherefOre, if a man leaves no other
relations but aliens his land shall escheat to the
lord." Our own Chancellor Kent says : "An
alien cannot acquire a title to real property by
descent or created by mere operation of law.
1 as is a well settled rule of the common law."
In the face of this clearly expressed rule of law
of England, well known to every lawyer, per
sons descended from Pilgrim Fathers , and
owing allegiance to the United States Govern
' went, still cherish the delusion that they can
inherit property in England.'
It is amusing to hear people, who could not
prove their legitimate descent from their great
grandfathers in a court of law, if it were to
save them from hanging, talk of inheriting
property in England through their ancestors !
How many know their great ancestor ever
came from England? and if they did, how are
they to prove title back six or eight generations
in England, and down as many at home ?
Now and then family meetings are called for
the purpose of "takin , h , , steps" to recover the
millions (note particAdarly, always millions!)
left in England withont heirs, and bearing
laciest" for an unknown period of time.
These families raise money and send agents
into England to recover the long-talked of
fortune. This is the last you hear of property
in this family. Some of the more. credulous
members shake their heads, doubting the
honesty of the agent; and certainly, if he
should ever after display a little money,—a few
thousand dollars,—that would be regarded the
great fortune out of which this family had
I been defrauded!
Why should estates in England without
hens be a more common occurrence than
here ? Is property often found here without,
IS We„ apprehend not. While in Eng
land it is notoriously trne that property is tied
up for the benefit of thture generations by
every means the law will allow. Every owner
provides for its future enjoyment to the best of
Isis ability. An estate in England without an
heir is almost, if nut entirely, au unknown
thing.
This whale fortune business is the veriest
nonsense now catgut. Other follies have had
their day and disappeared; but this still lingers.
e have seen a 'whited list of families
entitled to property in England. It embraces
nearly all the pi incitsal New England fatuities.
We know precisely what this means. It will
catch amok all credulous persons, not already
atlCeted will, this malady of fortune-hunting..
It is a remarkable truth, and without excep
tion, that families whose history is known or
written are never affected with this malady: It
prevails among those who have little or no
knowledge of their ancestors, and but little
more of -themselves. This enables them to ex
ercise their imaginations in castle-building.
Nothing is so ugly as hard facts.asul established
truths, in the eyes of fortune-hunters.—Bustun
Troreaer.
Mrs. Stone's Southern Rome.
From Ledyard Bill's forthcoming work, "A
Winter in Florida," we learn that Mrs. Stowe's
plantation at Mandarin, Fla.; presents all itn
posing appearance from the river. "The water
near the bank of the river on the lower St.
John's is quite shallow, necessitating a project
ing pier of some length at all the landings; and
this is especially the ease at Mandarin. Mrs.
Stowe's house is near the bank, and but a few
rods to the left of the shore-end of the pier. It
is of a dark brown color, of very moderate
cottage size, wholly unpretending in appear
ance, and quite inexpensive. The chief feature
of-her,place, as seen from the river, is its mag
nificent towering shade trees—the water oak.
They attract and fasten the eyes of all by their
unusual size and beauty. Their widespread
and overshadowing brancheS give an air of se
clusion,and dignity to the quiet home beneath.
Her plce, we are informed, consists of some
forty acres in the rear of her dwelling, with
three or four acres of orange trees large enough
to bear fruit. This groVe is being added to,
and doubtless in time she will possess a very
large and beautiful orchard, and one of'great
value."

GE1411:E11.E,1: In the year 18.56 I unfortunately was in
business in the Artisan Building, which was destroyed •
by firs on the 10th of April. I had then ln use what I
suppOsed was a Fire-proof Safe, but upon opening it I
found everything was destroyed,and fire burning therein.
You will recollect, gentlemen, there was several of
your safes in that fire, also several in the fire at Sixth
and Commerce streets, the next May, five weeks after
wards, all of which upon being opened proved they
were fire-proof indeed, for I witnessed the opening of
the most of them, and in mi..ccy....easo the contents were
reserved, while safes of other makers were partially or
entirely destroyed. l at once concluded to have some
thing that I could depend upon, and purchased one of
your salve.
The safe I purchased of yen at that time was subjected
to a white beat 1 which was witnessed by several gentle
men that reside in the neighborhood) at the destruction
of my Marble Paper factory, 921 . Wallace street, on the
afternoon and evening of the 24th inst. After digging
the safe from the ruins, and opening it this morning, I
was much pleased to find everything, consisting of
books, papers, money and silverware, all tight. I shall
want another of your safes as soon as I can get a place
to continue my business in. I could not seat contented
with any other make

A Memorial From Cuban Prisoners
A translation of a document has been for
warded to the Department of State by one of
the United States consular pincers in Cuba.
The persons whose names are appended to the
paper were among those who were afterward
shot at Jiguari. The petition was addressed to
the Consuls of England, France, Prussia and
the United States. It commences thus :
A person in citizen's dress, who; as he said,
was an adjutant, this day verbally directed us
to prepare to go as prisoners to Manzanillo, in
accordance with previous orders. This an
nouncement surprised us, because, according
to the circular of General Caballero de llodas,
no one can be arrested on mere suspicion, and
in case of there being sufficient cause the ar
rest shall be made after due verbal process by
placing the presumptive offenders at the dis
posal of the Captain-General —that is, in cases
of political oflences.
Several of us were put upon trial some days
since on the suppositon that we were guilty of
the crime of high treason, and due proceedings
having been instituted, the Governthent 'At
torney was of the opinion that they ought to be
quashed,with which the Associate Judge, who
iu Spanish courts is the responsible one,agreed ;
thereupon, the Governor-General, of this. De
partment, although complying with the letter
of this decision, demanded bail of the accused,
thereby showing an' inconsisteney.which can
be justified *neither by the keenest reason
nor-by any sophistry or subtlety or interpreta
tion. •
II Others' were . yestetday, mernihg: .placed Ali
r sOlitary confinement, iiithOut any reason for
,I
i their arrest being assigned ogrounds 'stated
for the order cff their depa Re, rind even
, without due form of law, whichrequires . such
a thing to 133 done by the attorney of the
Government, and not by a person in citizen's'
3 ! dress. The person delivering the message pre
-11 sented it as a polite and delicate mark of at
tention on the part of the Governer.
After a further statement of thtS case, they
j say to the Regent, • through the Consuls :
Sir : We are dragged from our homes, we.
I are led to prison ; we are mysteriously expesed
to the perils - of a journey, in contravention of
;all law, without any regard to , our previous
II record; without any 'regard to the effect pro
ioi duced by these measures on the public opinion;
:k without any regard to the groans, the tears, the.
llsorrows of distinguished families, and of the
h3eople at laige.. Deign to grant us justice, as
Vle illustridus victor of Alcaba would grant it ;•
The would not epose us to the perils of a
Njourney, nor would he be (leaf . to our prayek,
•
.T 2,1311 .OVIJ
He is u generous and great son of, the
people, and the representative of 'a Democratic
nation, and would severely punish the:.uphold
ersof such despotism, which is a canker-w Orin
to the Spanish influence in this island of Cuba.
What we' o feariS, to speakThinkliand Wain
-IY,,that we shall perish on the 'road, either by
the bullets of thee o soldiers of one or the other
party, by the prevailing epideuiic, or by the
deep, horrible and indescribable horrors and
apprehensions which have assailed us since the
history of certain deeds has been Made known
to us,
We therefore appeal to you, Worthy repre
'sentatives of powerful nations. Visit the
Governor of the Department; tell hint of our
fears; use yore• influence with him ; demand
of him the security of our lives; or, in case any
calamity befhll us, report to our governments
et has been done. You will thereby render
a service to the cause of civilization, to your
own nations, and to Spain herself; who cannot
suffer such acts to be committed.
Receive, Messrs. COnsuls, the assurance of
our highest consideratioil.
