It was al. ut this time that I ap
peared upon tbe scene; and she dis
covered that he bad lound tbe rijrht
man, as 1 bad fjund tbe right girl.
Mav l'.rodsiono instantly gave up ail
ber'admirers, was as steady and quiet
as a gum tree when no wind blows,
aal finally said tbe "Yes" upon
which mv happiness depeucled.
Old Mr. llrodstone knew that tbe
match would be a good one, aud
reudilv gave hi- consent, so that ocr
'ii?ar nient we s soon made public.
I as prcKcuf w hen tbe news reacb--d
Jacob Kiel. I fball never forget
bis bice. Ilis lips were compressed,
his dark eves contracted ; be looked
fri.m Mv to me. and I felt that, if
ever be could, be would do me mis
chief. Without a f vllablo be quitted
tbe place. A strange rensation run
through me 8S be departed ; and May
told me that a cold shudder had run
through her veins.
We did not see much of Kiel after
this, though we knew he was cften
ab ut the station upon business; but
tbe man somehow threw a kind of
shadow over May's and my happi
ness, and we were bo: at all sorry
when we got on board the steamer
and steamed off towards Old Kng
luud We bad not, however, got
clear out of eight of land w hen May,
giving a little cry, put ber hand on
my arm, and, slightly nodding her
bead towards the lower deck, said:
'Oh, Edward, look be is there
. too!"
And so be was. Leaning quietly
over the side, watching the land ap
parently, w as Jacob Kiel a passen
ger for" England, like ourselves. I
w ill ow n that I was considerably nn-j
noyed, though when May, drawing
nearer, exclaimed, in a low startled
voice, "Edward, dear, 1 don'l know
bow it is, but I dread that man I
cannot divest my mind of tbe thought
that he means us harm.': I laughed
and tried to banish so absurd an
idea. And certainly it appeared I
bad every right te do so. Save by a
casual interchange of a few words,
Kiel never troubled ns, and we were
mnkintr a capital journey, when, just
as we were within twenty degrees of
the line, we were struck by a hurri
cane which tbe captain declared was
almost a cyclone in violence.
The vessel could not weather it
Tbe masts crashed overboard, taking
several of the crew with them, and,
before the wreck could be cut adrift,
a portion of tbe broken spars, dash
ng agaiust tbe ship, bad caused a
leak below tbe water-line, and tbe
erv was Wc are t-inkini! Lower
the boats the pumps are useless 1"
The captain was marvelously firm
wud cool, and by bis example made
lis all the same.
Tbe boats were rapidly lowered
and filled, while, thank heaven tbe
storm eemed to abate.' Tbe wo
ojcn went firet, v course, tnd all
was proceeding well, when, just as
tbe last boat was being tilled, I re
membered that in my hurry I had
left rv "mothers miuiature in my
chest. " There was plenty of 'hue to
fetch it. and in a secoud 1 was down
in tbe cabin. Flinging the lid own

licii. when I beard a foot upon tbe
stair I turned, and by tbe dim
light yet swinging from the roof,
perceived jaeob Kiel.
(jood heavens! The diabolical
expression on his face, tbe Gendib
malice in his dark soake-like eyes,
revealed his iutcntion -in s moment

volver, to be on my guard ; but au
iittock was not bis purpose. Before

on tbe outside.
Like a flash of licitc'ctr all the
horrors of my position in.tantly
nasned be lore me. 1 was a prisoner
in the sinking ship ! L tiering a loud
shout of fury I sprang forward; the
cry was echoed by a laugh from
Jacob Kiel. I heard him sav,

roar of tbe etorm drowsed my voice.
I paused. Just then tbe wind lulled,
and I beard the order to pusb oSf ;

and tbe w iod rose toe-ether I was

furiously I beat tbe door, all the
while painfu'ly conscious that rescue
was impossible and death certain, for
it was sight, and as no doubt tbe
torm would separate tbe boats, my
absenoe would but be discovered
until the ressel was foun&red.

The sea was nearly calm, tbe stin
shining, and their search 'was cot
difficult. They soon perceived a
dark object. Approaching it they
found it to be myself, clinging like
grim death to tbe mast, but laujrhin
and pell'ng like a maniac. In fact I
was mad, and for some time alter
they bad managed to get me into the
boat I remained so; then I became
calmer, though I was delirious for a
w hole day and niibt.
Directly sensibility returned, I told
my story," filling every one with hor

"I sec it all!" exclaimed tbe cap
tain. "Tbe villian ! Last night our

Whether this was so I do not

TLe singular heartlessness of some
of tbe Chinese residents of bau
Francisco is forcibly illustrat?d by a
recent incident, w hich the Chronicle
thus describes ; Two Chinamen visit
ed a prominent undertaking estab
lishment, and the Hpokesu an, who
talked very fair pigeon English, said:
"One Cbinawomau, she muchee die ;
we waut bury her twelve o'clock."
A man was dispatched for the city
physician to make an inspection and
give a certificate, and also to take tbe
measure of the deceased woman.
Tbe pair wended their way to llren
ham place, and in a small room on
tbe tbird floor, laid out on a mat, was
the supposed corps. The undertaker,
thinking onlv of his business, pulled
out his tape liuc and asked the doctor
to bold one end of il while the size of
the cofliin required was ascertained.
Tbey were a little surprised as they
stretched the line over the body to
soe the woman open her eves. The
Chinamen expressed no surprise, but
nimplysaid; "Oh, the le dead by
twelve o'clock." The doctor alter
making a careful examination, con
eluded that the woman was bevond
help, and was on the eve of dissolu
tion, but tbe undertaker decided that
il would be as well to postpone th
funeral. Except iu tbe cases of
prominent and wealthy Chinamen,
w hose estate w ill bear the expenses
of a lavish spread of varnished hog
aud other funeral meats, the Chinese
almost invariably hurry offiheirdead
to tbe cemetery before tbey are fairly
cold. Almost any undertaker can
furnish experiences like this, and
there can be little doubt that many
a poor Chinaman is put under tbe
sod before life is extinct.

With the increasing cost of fencing
material, it becomes a more interest
ing question to the farmer. How can
1 economically build new and repair
old fences" A western mau sug
gests the use of sods, and writes:
"In Eaitland and Ireland tbey have
tbe ''d fence.' I have seen i' in
tbi country occasionally, b i: 1 tiiink
if our farmers knew is p a. -iii-.il
merits we should see it olu-m v. Ouly
dig two diU'Les two feet apart, three
feet wide, and two feet deep; throw
tbe dirt iroui the ditches on the space
between, beat it down till it baa some
harduesMtud give it euough blant to
prevent 'caving,' and you have a
fence lor a uielune. in most cases
here we need no turf or 'whin bushes'
as they do, for in a year the bank
will be covered by a luxuriant growth
or blackberry bus lies, . answering
ererr purpose. Even where timber
is plenty, we can make tbis fence
cheaper than almost any other.

Having bad some experience, says
a correspondent of the Country Gen-
tleman, in clover raisinir, I will say
for the benefit of any who may be
interested in tbe subject, that 1 be

either timothy or corn fodder, and at

A singular phenomenon is just now
creating a Eensation a few miles
south of Erie, in tbe shape of a mouse
catching infant, surpassing in expert
us tbe agility of tbe best canine or
feline mouser in the country. The
report of this singular freak of na
ture reached me so well authenticate
td thai I concluded to gratify ray cu
riositv, and possibly be bold, as 1 had
often been, but, to my surprise, ibe
fuc:s turned out mure remarkable
than tbe most astonishing natural

w ith my own eyes a performance so
I wonderful and uovel that I can nev
" r r- . - o
er forget the impression it made. Tbe
babe was asleep when I arrived, and
on awakening she started at onee on j
her strange mission. She is a beau-i
jtiiul little blonde, of delicate features
land bright, blue eyes, and ber hair
lies all over ber ber bead in exqui
sitely formed golden curls, about the
circle of a dime. There is nothing
unusual about tbe couutenance of tbe
child, or different from that of any
pretty featured baby, except w hile
stalking ber gme. Tben ber eyes
become glisteuing and fixed, spark
ling like gems, and her face and
hands turn pale as wax, while sue
appears to bear or notice nothing go
ing on around her, but keeps her eyes
steadily centered on the burrow
whence she expects her game to sal
ly forth. The mother and only sis
ter of the child and myself sat in a
semi circle around ber, silent as if in (
a soiritual seance waiting l.r the sig-
Dal of departed spirits. Had no
mouse made its appearance, tbesuht
w as one never to be forgotten tbe
deathly pale face cf that motionless
child, and the rivited, sparkling eyes
concentrated for thirty minutes on
that mouse bole in the brick hearth.
During that half hour we neither
moved or spoke above a whisper,
w hen suddenly, like the springing of
a trap, the little thing s band went
down on the hearth, followed by tbe
fine squeak of a mouse, and that
strange, low growl ingular tremor of
the body of tbe child. As usual, she
held the mouse by tbe neck in ber
right hand, while it squirmed desper
ately to getaway, febe tben press
ed it up against ber bosom, and felt
of it gently and softly with her other
hand; tbeu would dexterously change
hands.carefu.ly keeping her grip upon
tbe neck to avoid its bite, though ber
mother told me she bad been frequent
ly bitten: and while sensitive to pain
and crying at tbe lea.st ordinary burt,
tbe never wu seen to wince or show
the least pain from the bite of a
mouse. I examined ber fingers and
found tbem scarred in many places
where she Lad been bitten. 1 tried
to realize how the feat had been ac
complished, but it was .done so sud
denly there was no time to analyze
it. Yet I was assured by the family
who bad taken frequent observation,
that the mouse when once out of its
hole seems to become charmed or
magnetized aud has no power, or at
least shows no disposition to escape
till caught, w hen iit is too late, if
any one approaches tbe child to take
the mouse aw ay from her, she will
utter a shrill scream and then try to
conceal ber prize by putting it into
her mouth.
I have beard of snakes and birds
charming children, but I guess this
is the first mouse catching baby yet
developed. I wouder how Darwin
would explain this abnormal instinct
by tbe laws of evolution and natural
selection.
Some One to I.ve.
I'crhaps oue of the most positive
proofs we have 'of the soul's inde
pendence of tbe body is our great
need of love and of some'hing to
love. Were we mere animals creat
ures doomed to perish after a few
vears of life in this world that
wbich contents the brute would also
content ns. To eat and sleep well,
to bare an easy time of it would be
enough. As it is, we may have all
tbeke things and health to enjoy them
and yet be utterly wretched. Neith
er can mental food satisfy us.
"Some one to love" is our heart's cry.
ncn toe aimospncre ol tc?cr
ness is about us we rejoice; when
people arc harsh and unkind we suf
fer. te begin life wishing to love
all people, and believing that tbey
love us. Experience hardens us.
Our dear ones grow fewer; but, as
long as reason lasts, we must have
some one we roust at least imagine
that some one loves us. The par
ents, sisters and brothers that dear
est friend whom we promise to love
and ctansh until death parte ns
these cotno into oar lives and ull
tbem op. Afterward come th.oljttle
children frail, helplets babies, who
need our help so much, and friends to
whom we are not kin, yet who grow
dear to us.
Some Lave many loved ones, and
some but one. Heaven help those
who have none, though they are gen
erally to blame for their empty heart
cdness, for kindness win? love. Tbey
ara always wretched, and tbey often
show their craving for sometbiug to
love by cberiehing some dumb ani
mal a dog, a kitten, a parrot, per
haps, on which tbey lavish carossrs,
wnich, better spent, would bava
bound some bnman heart to theirs
Pride or morbid sensitiveness may
have been at tbe bottom of their lone
liness, and these peu of theirs fill the
aching void a little.

The California Agricultural
says there are two million beehives
in the United States, each hive yield
ing a little over twenty-two pounds
of honey in a year. Tbe average
price at wbich honey is sold is esti
mated at twenty-five cents a pound,
from which it appears that bees, after
payiug iheir own board, present us
with a revenue of about $3,000,000
a year. Or, it may be said, that

every man, woman and child iu the
Uuiied State.. Tbe rjriculturift
estimates the profits on the sale of
surplus honey at from fifty to two
hundred per cent, on the capital in
vested. But all bees are not as well
educated as those of California.
Tbe bouey that conies lo us from Cal
ifornia, when not cut up and boiiled,
is contained in little square wooden
frames, probably six by six inches,
in which the bees deposit it ready for
transportation. The upper side of
the otherwise fiat frame is made of a
tbin piece of wood shaped like a Y.
Tbe bees begin building on tbe low
er point of tbe Y, and are thus made
to keep their wax structure in the
middle of the frame. After the hon
ey has been dejtosited the frames may
be packed closely together, aud each
layer is kept separate from the others
by tbe rtnjcciing tides of tho frame.
Caiitorma coney usually reaches
eastern markets in tbis way, but for
retail sale is taken from this frames
aud packed in glass bottles or jar.
