THE DEAD SHIP tJF, HABP8WILL.
fr join . wmia.
What leek the outer gray beyota4 : .,
The sundown' golden trail ?
lbs white flash of Ma-bird 'a wing,
Or gleam of slanting sail T
. Let young eye watch from Keek aad Point,
And sea-worn elders pray,
Thegboatof what was once the ship, ..
; Is sailing up the bay!
From gray sea-fog, from Icy drift,
From peril and from pain,
The houie bound Sober greet thy light,
O hundred-harbored Maine !
But many a keel shall sea-ward turn,
And many a sail outstand,
when, tall and white, the Dead Ship loom
Against the dusk of land.
She rounds the headland's bristling pin.
She threads the isle let bay ;
No spur of breese can speed her on, .
Nor ebb of tide delay. '
Old men still walk the Isle of Orr,
Who toll her date and same.
' Old shipwrights sit in Freeport yards
' uw oeww ueroaaon iraioe.
What woary doom of baffled quest,
Thou sad se.i-ghost, is thine?
What makes tbee in the bannt of bom
A Wonder and a sign ?
N o foot is on thy sileut deck,
Upon thy helm no band ;
No ripple hath the soundless wind
That suite thee from the land !
Fur never comos the ship to port
liowe'er the breete may be;
lust when she near the waiting shore
She drifts again to sea.
No tack of sail, nor turn of helm,
Nor ahoer of veering side.
6tern-f ire she drives to sea at night
Against the wind and tide.
In vain o'er Harpswell Neck the star
Of evening guides her in ;
In vain fur her the lamps are lit
Within thy tower, Seguin ! "'
In vain the harbor boat shall hall,
In vain the pilot call ;
No hand shall reef her spectral sail,
Or lot her anchor fall.
Shake, brown old wives, with dreary joy,
Your gray-head hints of ill ;
And. over sick-beds whispering low,
Your prophecies fulfill.
Some home amid yon birchen tree
Shall drape it door with woe;
And slowly where the Dead Ship sails,
The burial boat shall row !
From Wolf Neck and from Flying Point,
From island and from main,
From sheltered oove and tided creek,
Snail glide the funeral train.
The dcad-tout with the bearer four,
The .mourners at her stern,
And one i hull go the silent way
Who shall no more return !
And men hhall sigh, and women weep,
Whose dear ouee pal and pin, '
And sadly over sunset leas
Aw.iit the ghost bysign.
They know not that its sails are filled
By pity's tender breath,
Nor see the Augel at the helm
ho steers the Ship of Death t

A Lucky Ilatmakcr.
The nuasiun peasant who saved the life of
the C7.nr, U a bijjrml instance of the cmbar
raoin poMtion of a man upon whom honors
an- thmt. It appeam that be is wholly
uueducutud, aud thereforu unfit for the cul
tivated society into which his lot is now cast
through the gratitude of Alexander. Gen.
Todleben, the defender of Sebautopol. has
undei taken the tusk of impart mg the needed
instruction.
The name of this lucky person is the terri
ble i.neot Joseph Kommissaroff Kostromski.
His piitent nt nobility ha; been published,
and u correspo ident writes of him that "ho
is absolutely a martyr to public feeling, and
Ims no doubt, rruny a time wished himself
lock at hat-making. Not content with
giving him ovations at theatres, poor Kom
niissur.ilf hnt had to eat and drink with all
sorts and enndttious of men, from the artizan
to the prinw. At ft dinner given by tho
.vl.l... . sT C T.. I A -1 -. l .
nobles of St. Petersburg to tho deputies
from Moscow and other places, who have
come with addresses to the Emperor, Kom
iiiissarotf sat next to Count Orloff Davpdoff,
who w us in the chair. There was the un
fortunate KommisssrofT going through his
. sextond dinner that day, dressed fur the first
! time in the stuffy uniform of a nobleman,
and wiping his honest, hot face with the
trusty riht hand that shoved Ksrakosoff't
elbow. His health was drank amidst cheers
that might be compared to the roar of artil
lery, ami he returned thanks jn words that
did not reach cither his neighbors or the
reporters, on account of the enthusiastic up
roar which his presence created. How Mrs.
KommissaroflT passes her time is not so well
known, for her husband's popularity is but
little reflected on her. She appears, however,
by his side in a photograph which meet
with an immense sle in the street of the
capital. But of course she will come in for
some nf the good things that are lavished
on her husband. Moscow sends him a gold
sword of honor, the Emperor gives him a
pension, the inhabitants of St. Petersburg a
house, and the nobles of every province are
soliciting the honor of inscribing his name
in their genealogical register. Tho Emperor
of Austria has tent him the Commaoder't
Cross of the Frantz Joseph Older.
The La ntih or Woman.
A woman hat no natural gift more be
witching than a tweet laugh, ft is like the
t' Und of flute on water. It leapt from her
in a clear, sparkling rill-t and the heart that
hears it ieelt at if bathed in the cool, ex
hilarating spring. Have you ever pursued
an unseen fugitive through trttea, led on try
lairy laugh now here, now there, now lot,
now foundt We have ; apd we sre pursuing
that wandering voice to this day. Some
times it comet lo u in the midst of care, or
sorrow, or irksome business, end thou we
'turn away and listen, and hear it ringing
iu the room like a silver bell, with power to
care tway the evil spiiit of mind. Uow
much we owe to that sweet laugh! It tuna
prose to poetry ; it flings flowers of sunshine
over the darkness of the wood in which we
are travelling ; it touches with light even
our sleep, which is ao more than the image
of death, but U consumed with dreamt that
are the ahadowe of immortality. Veafte.

pack np her goods. Shu wished he would
be present to see that she took nothinirex.

the adjoining room with her, where the bu
reau and clothes-ureas were. The n il's nm.
Ceeded in silence to take out the clothes,
when suddenly her eyes foil upon a small dreas,
and, quite overcome, she broke out in a con-
vulmvo weeping. The husband, hitherto an
IcdfTerent observer, remarked her emotion
and discovered the cause. It was the dress
of their only child, a little daughter of three
years, who had died almost two vears ago.
The husband was not less affected by tlio
sight than his wile. He embraced her with
emotion, begged her pnrdon airain and aua n,
and tore the decree ;f divorce into a thou
sand peices, haet-ned to the clerk's ollice,
took out a new mairiaue licence, and was
married immediately to his late wile.

ized by his Mttai'hmetit lo the seductive
beverage called peach and honey, and by
his hatreil of whisky and whisky dnukers.
While holding a com t at Austin, two men
were brought up on a clmrge of a drunken
affray. It was a plain case ; the row had
occurred in the open street, in open .lav. and !

.. ' .
threw themselves on the mercy of the court.
'. Thoy were theu brought forward for sen
tence separately.
"You are guilty of an affray V growled
tbejudgo.
"Yes, your houor," whined the offender,
thoronghly frightened.
"Drunk, 1 suppose," grunted the judge.
"Yet, your houor," murmured the prisoner,
with the fuiut hope that having been drunk
would mitigate the punishment.
"Drunk on rye whisky, too, I'll warrant,"
roared the judge iu a voice of thunder.
"Yet, your honor, drunk on rye whisky."
"Mr. Clerk, record a tine nf lift y dolluts
against this niuu,'' cried the judge. "6eo.l
biin to jml for sixty day. 1 shall fine the
next one w ho is guilty under such aggravat
ing circimstance one hundred ilo.lar, aud
tend him to jiil for six mouth."
This waa poor comfort for the unfortunate
fellow who was waiting bis turn, aud now
came forward with fear aud I rem bring.
Aa be passed along by hia lawyer, that
thoughtful gentleman whispered in hi ear,
"When the judge asks ou what you got
druuk on, tell him on peach and honey."
He took the stand.
"You, too, are up here for an affray,"
growled the judge, gnaabiug bit teeth, st if
he would like to bite the prisoner at the bar,
"Yes, your honor. '
"Drunk, too, I suppose."
"Ye, your honor, sorry to say it. Drunk
very drunk."
"Druuk on rye whisky, I mi, I suppose."
"Oh, no, your honor, I neter drink whisky.
I got drunk on peach aud honev."
The judge's features relaxed fu an instant.
teaniug forward and raising hi aeetaclea,
e contemplated the offender with interest,
and addressed biin with something like ten
ilernett. '
"Ah! sir," said the judge, blandly, "peach
and honey, ebt Tbat's a gentleman's drink,
sir. The court sympathize with you, sir,
aad does not regard your offense as very
serious. Mr. Clerk, tuntiuued he, in a soft
ening tone, "cater the fine of one dollar
against this gentleman, and discharge him

It will be recollected that we spoke in !

other insects. The Ohio Farmer savs that i
"accidentally a bottle of coal oil was bro

others, wa packet!, became thoroughly
saturated with the liquid. This sawdust
being put at the foot of a plum tree abuut
the time of blossoming, the fruit wag saved.
This cireauistance led to further experi

also said that the fumes of coal tar will

THE CCKCULIOSID..
This is the name of the family of iusects
to which the plum weevil belongs. Mure
than two hundred and twenty species of this
insect are descrilted by naturalists as being
indigenous to the United States, all of them
Iveicg more or less injurious to vegetation.
It ia saiii that there is ool probably a nut or
seed ot any kiud that is not liublu to attack
from some of the species. Ia ad.litiou to
this, several ot the species in the larva state
feed upon apples, pears, peaches, plums,
eticrries, Ac, and some upon leaves and leaf
stems ot the various kiuds of vegetables,
and tome upon the mature wood of trees.
Although differing considerably in sire and
color, they resemble each other so much in
form that the most unpructiced oueerver
could nardly fail in recognizing tbeu: The)
all go under the name of "snout beetle."
The insect is about one-fourth of .i inch
in length, rough iu sppearar.ee, colored iu
spot of brnwu and dirty white. About the
middle nf the wing covers are two elevsted
tuU'rrtes, behind which msy be seen two
Urgcr spots of white. The tarva is a white
or reddish white worn usually found in the
various kip 1s of fruit in the months of Msy
and June. After the fruit falls from the
tree this worm betakes himself to the ground
where he undergoes hiafluullninsfoiuiations
aud in due time again comes forth to pur
sue his little roead ot exiaieuue. I'.io
thoughtful mind, as it contemplates Ihe
mysterious changes through which this lit
tle life revolves, can hardly fail to wonder
at the care bestowed upou a creature which

VHK OK COAL-TAR, KTC.
At a recent meeting of tho Imporial Agri
cultural Society of France M. Chevreul read
a paper on the effactt of coal-tar In destroy
ing parasites upon animals and also insects
injurious to vegetation. He status that
twenty grape vines treuted with a mixture
of three per cent, of coal-tar mixed with a
sand or earth, spread about an inch thick
over the roots of the vino, produced a good
crop, while an equal number of vines staud-
ing in the immediato neighborhood which
were not thus protected failed to perfect a
single grupc.
He further says that "what is most remark
able in regard to this substance, coal-tar, is
that when introduced iulu the soil in pro
per proportions it uot only destroys all in
sects, but acts ns a manure, increasing the
growth of vegetation.
The New Kuglacd Former, in comment
ing upon tho above, speaks of tho DiurUie
of lime as producing the, same results. This
is a manure invented by a gentleman of tha
name of Gould, which is found, upon analy
sis, to contain some of the active ingredients
of coal-tar, parbolic or phcmicacid, creosote,
&c.. The Farmer publishes a certificate,
from a trustworthy source, fully sustaining
! l lie above conclusions, unn recommends a
I trial of the muriate "in a small way," in or-
der to lest the fact. We fully agree with
I the editor in Ids conclusions in legsrd to
this discovery. "If all this be so," be says,
"the discovery is one ot the most importaut
of the atje, and may result in the extermina
tion of insects, which have coated to be
bo mere pests, but have become a scourges,
such as the canker worm, apple -worm and
curcuho."

and nothing is a betler remedy lor bowel

making it : Measure yoar berries aud bruise

boiling water. Let the mixture stand
twenty-four hours, stirring occasionally; then
strain off I no liquor into a cask j to every
gallon add two pound of sugar; cork tight

put on this trivit the pluto of butter, and fill

that its edge shall be within the saucer an 1

pot with a cork, then drench the flower pot
with water, set in a cool place until morn

be very hard at supper-time.
To Remove the Taste of New Wood
A ne keg, churn, bucket or other wooden
vessel will generally communicate a disagree
ablo taste to anything that is put into it.
To pieevtit this inconvenience, first scald
the vessel well with boiling water, letting
the waler remain in it till cold. Then dis
solve kome pearlaah cr soda is lukewarm

wash the iusido of the vessel well with this
solution. Afterwards scald it we'd with
plain hnt water, and rinsoit with cold before
you use it.
