lurch of tae ship sent the - man reeling out up
on deck.
A transient ffelter .of the binnacle lamp

upon polished metal, and knowing that un

a right to be there, my suspicions became ar

It was the voice of Jack 9tro i vin, the En

The re-cal was coming aft, armed with an
whaling lance..

turned to confront the armedidesperado. He
was within ten feet Of me, with the lance pois

ship disconcerted big aim, and the lance
blade prt!sed,b . y tithed so clohly that it
took away my cap and just touched my
cheek. The impetus of the tloust s together
with the luich• of- the ship, sent the Fetlock
liast tire , and brought him to his knees on the
deck; near the wheel. I argned that the de
fensive-was the best policy and down I went

hoping to Vild him there till I could sum

The Legend of ianta Claus.
The popular name of the saint who presides
over Christmas Mad the toy *gifts of that
welcome seasda, is derived from St. Niclolaa:
The legend of, his first - appearanci is an hal
iamone.. Acriording to this, a shoemaker,
named Giraldi, was so miserably poor. that
his labor from day to day . barely kept Lis
familyifrotte starvatrOn, and.he.was unable to
give evenOstikell dowry t hiS pretty daugh
ters. Tt waslnot thought proper'to matrr ,
without a dowry; and thus the young gi rl,
though each had turadthirer, were 'compelled
to remain riagle.! their .Sfatbe,r,. heaever
went every morning tsethe shrine to pray to
his patron saint, St. Nicholes, that be Would
work' a miratde'to relieve him ,from hie dis ;
trear. One of his nearest neighbors, ati ctt
merchant, wit 6 chanced one `day to . orerhear
his simple petition, ridiculed the idea . of Ida
g
.expecting the good saint to take care of hilt
daughter, and recommended biur . to °boccie a
patron saint Who could be able to do some,
thing for him! "Mine," he said, " is. the Jew,
Buottaj.,to; fie lends Me money at two - vet ,
cent. per month; and if you know Cdr. I,t
manage you may make four with t. lie.
is Rot so deaf as St. NitibOilk.9. " The poor •
mat. was sha c ked at this impious speech,
and essured the merchant,that• his religious
faith could never bealiaken. He went evert
day to church, notwithistanding ,thri ;atilt:ea

the' merchant land Jew settled up their yearll
accounts; _l3uenrtiuto found that be owed hia•
ftimd three hhadred ducats, and Y.isbing, to
give Ciro an agreellble surprisa, he ordered
one of the ducks Ice had carefully fattened, la
be ki!kd and ! Torstei, and then, with his own
har.ds, introduced the three hundred gold
pieces into the inside and sewed themcp. : —
He then sent the duck to , the metchant as tt-
Christmas -present. The merchan't's wife
- sltted in the 'common prtiudice .figeitint shit
Jews. and shel declared that she would not
touch the duttk,.and the merchant resulted,
to sellit.
,When Giraldi.Ptisserl on his way
to church ; his neighbor, as usual, bantered
.him on his devaticre, and show him the Chtiit

taunted him with the stolidity of St-Nicht:4N
! ho could not even send hint piece of breed.

to be strictly houest.• The shoemaker Cot=

Abot!t twenty, years - agO-1 think- it .was
in the fall of I.s3S —we had a_pieceof laud
containing about. thiee:raiiiihs . Of" . ..an — acre: ,-
It had been mowed a• long time, and needed,
,plpwing. We be s gan. to plow it in die fali,
late in November. We EIfCC ., One -pair of
oxen and two horsss, and *Owed it deep.
We plowed around the whole piece,d when '
4 .....
it was about half done, the came snow
storm, and the remainder , c7as o fwith* spring. We then finithed plowing t with*
one pair of horses, and of cotirse it was
ploWed about half as deep as that done in the
fall. We harrowed it, umuured all alike, and
planted it to. corn.: The orOp Was good,
but we conlduot seii any dia - trance 'between
l-he deep fit!! plowing and the shallow spring
plowing.. -
A few years afterwards—l Think it . was in
1842—we had a piece of land, an litela or
more, which had - Leen mowed- several years,
and the grass was run Out, It needed-plow

We had a great plow•and- plenty of team. z .. ,
We hitched onstwdor three yoke of oxen
and two. horses, and turned it ovq•desper
than I ever plowed any land bele& or sinea. •
1 it was,pronably plowed from ten to sixteen •
1 inches 'deep. We hat rowed,' maimed, and
I planted as usual with coin. The hoeing was
very easy. The sod; ems tarried nyder so
deep, that on one would mist:6st that it was
