The sun, midway in' the heavens,
shrine from an unclouded sky, The
blue waves rolled sparkling over the
sea, glittering as,if gemmed with dia
monds. I was walking the deck of
Capt. Mervin's good ship Maryland,
bowling on her course to New Holland,
when 1 thought,l heard a cryofdistress
Above my 4 - e.act,C,' -
I glanced up to behold a white sea
bird, perched upon the foretop sail
yard, glaring down at me. I pointed
the creature out to my shipmates, who
soon were all on deck, watching the
,
Presently the 'captain came along
with his gun. 'He leveled it, and was
about to lire, when his daughter Eva, a
bright-eyed lass of fifteen, with cheeks
of rpsy hue, an,d waving curls of bright,
'brown hair, *Truk forward and caught
his arm. '
"0, no, papa !.Please don't !"
"Cio away, ink child."
"No, no, papa, 0 no!"
"Why, it is. nothing but a great,
rough bird!"
"I know it, and I pity it beeimq-•:- ,
so ugly. Don't kill it!"
Vivery buoy A u rue snip loved. little
She was a kind-hearted girl ever
ready to sympathize with and to aid
the distressed. Over her 'father She ex
ercised almost unboundedinfluence.
He lowered his gun, 4/ for her sake
promised to spare the bird's life. :
"It kinks hungry," said Eva, "I will
give it something to eat."
She Went into the, cabin, procured
some cake, and sprinkled. it ',over the
deck forward, when down 621M0 the
hungry bird and begun to eat. The
presence of the men did not frighten it
at all ; it seemed tO like the society of
human beings.
"It's an albatross," said an 'old fel
low, with but one eye, "them creature's,
are perfect lubbers, seem' as they )bav
en't sense enough to be afeard of their
betters." ,
"0 papa !" exclaimed Eva, "we Pwill
keep the bird until we get it nice and
fat, then we will let it go if it wants
to."
"I'm afraid we will have hard work
to get rid of it, then," said tho captain,
"as them critters has a habit, do you
see, of retracin7 .their •-way back to
places they arc used to."' •
I at on ce'recognized the 'truth . of this
remark. I had seen caught albatrosses,
afterward set at liberty, with bits of
ribbon and paper tied to their necks,
return and hover round the ship for
days. •
• ii`o , please his child,, however, the
captain consented to keep the : bird a
couple of days. It was put into the
"potatoe bintiff, and EVa came up every
few hours to Teed it.
On the afternoon of the third dayi she
set it at liberty. There was a thick fog
round the ship at the time and in this
the albatross soon disappeared.
'• Eva shed a few tears,at parting, with
it, for somehow she had become attached
to it, gaunt and ugly thougnit was.
At niglit,l,was pacing 'the, deck for
ward; when I thought 1 heard a splash
and a cry aft. They.essel,•nt this , time
was.running . along,at th '
e'rate of about
four' knots, under, everything she could
carry, , with a light breeze jtist abaft the
weather beam.
I hUrried to the quarter deck, found
that the officer of the watch was gone
below, and that'the man at the wheel
as dozing. I gavethelatter a shtiking.
"Did you•-not hear a noise just now ?"
He - looked up stupidly and apSwered;
When the other watch was called,
the captain *horn I had an hour before'
informed of what I had heard, came
running up, saying that he believed the
splash was caused by his tlaughterEva's
falling overboard. He had j ust knocked
at her door, but receiving • no answer,
had entered to find the girl missing.
' ."Lost ! lost !" exclaimed thedistracted
parent. '.'Eva was always subject to
sleep walking! she has sprung over
board ?"
The starboard boat - Wail lowered in" a
twinkling. Into it tumbled its crew,
and away went - the boat. The fog.. was
still thick ,but wil/ a faint hope that
Eva might liar us—that she might
cling tea protruding oar, which it was
evident she had clutched at and dragged
down in her decent—we shouted her
name !
We pulled ahead, and soon after rest

name.

THE WINGED RESCUER
BY ROGER STARBUCR
Again and again we repeated it, but
tiler* came no response.
"Pull ahead!" 'howled the captain,
who it was plain, could not give up his
child.
Still there was no reply.
"My Heaven my child ! my child !"
cried the captain, bowing his face on
his hands,.
A Gliyheader—a . half breed between
Indian slid white, suddenly inclined
his head.
"I hear something off the lee bow,"
he said. "Sounds like a bird. Nothing
but a bird, I think."
"Pull ahead l"a
..We.dld so, and .soon could plainly
distinguish the croaking often made, by
sea-birds.that !lola on the water.
"It's no use !" cried the captain; drop•
ping, heavily like a lump : of lead, into
the bottom of the boat.
_"My Evi is lost ! I wlll never see thy
child again!"
The GaYlieader, who had always evin,
ced a peculiar fondnese for the society'
of Eva, now shed tears. By the. "boat's
lantern, Leonid see them, rolling down
his cheek.
Suddenly he leaned forward, peering
earnestly ahead.
"Pull;, captain, pull !" he shouted,
wildly.. "I see one—two.—two Some
thing kith not birds., Pull !" '
Pull , we did, and in a few minutes
were alongside of a huge albatross, the
same which had .visited our ships, as
we knew by a pink ribbon. which the
captain's child had tied round itSneck.--
.Clinging.to this bird 'we now, to our
inexpressiblojoy, beheld Eva, fright
ened and trembling, yet firmly main
taining her held.
She soon was clasped to, her father's
bosom amid the glad shouts and cheers
of the boat's crew. She blushed and
smiled with pleasure when the young
Gayheader, pressing forward, 'shook
him& with. her. ,
"I think," said Eva, while explain
ing, "that I waked before I struck the
water. I found myself alongside of the
albatross, which, I supposed, had fol
lowed the ship ever since it was set free.
I throw out my arms and caught him
round the body, he did not peck at me,
but struggled a little, now and then
uttering a shriek." •
Subsequently the half breed married
Eva. They lived in Nantucket for
some time, but the Gayheader now is a
wealthy ore merchant, doing business
in London. Above his door, forseveral
years his sign was ornamented • with
the picture of an albatross.
Successful Temperance Logic
A small temperance society had been
started in a community very much
under the' control of a rich distiller,
commonly called "Billy Myers." This
man had several sons who had' bedome
drunkards on the facilities afforded by
their education at home. The, whole
family was arrayed against the move
ment, and threatened to break up any
meeting called to promote the object.
Learning this, the Rev. T. P. Hunt,
ent to a neighboring district for vol
tinteers for that particular occasion.
Be then gave out word for a meeting,
and at the time found his friends and
enemies about equal in numbers. This
glad prevented any outbreak, but could
not prevent noise.
Mr. Hunt mounted the platform, and
.by a few sharp anecdotes and witty
sayings soon silenced all noise except
'Bill Myers," the Dutchman, WllO oc
casionally cried out, "Mishter Hunt,
money makes the mare,go." To every
shot, which seemed ready to demolish
him, the old fellow presented the one
shield, "Mishter Hunt, money makes
the mare go."
At last Mr. Hunt stopped and ad
dressed the imperturbable German :
"Look here, Bill Myers, you say that
money makes the mare go, do you ?"
"Yes, dat ish just what I say, Mishter
Hunt."
"W 614 Bill Myers, you own and
work a distillery, don't you?" inquired
Mr. Hunt.
"Pat ish none of yourbusiness, Mish
"- 77 12 , - 4 - But den I ish not ashamed
of it, 1 Ilfi'vo 6-va
"And Yell say, 'Money makes the
mare go;'do you mean that I have
come here to get the money of these
people?"
"Yes, Mishter Hunt; dat ish just what
I mean."
"Very well ; you work the distillery
to make Money, and,l lecture on tem
perance to make money; and so you
say, 'Money makes the mare go,' Bill
Myers, bring out your mare, and I'll
bring out mine, and we'll show them
together.,2
By this time the whole assembly was
in a titter of delight; and-even Myer's
followers could not repress their merri
ment at the evident embarrassment of
their oracle. In the mean time we
must premise that Mr. Hunt knew .
large number of the drunkard's present
and among them the sons of Myers
himself.
"Bill Myeis, who is that holding him
self up by that tree?" inquired Mr.
Hunt, pointing to a young man so drunk
that he could not stand alone.
The old man started as IS stung by
an adder, but was obliged to reply, "Dat
ish my son ; but what of dat, A i lishter
Hunt?"
A good deal of that, Bill Myeei; for I
guess that son has been ridin •your
mare, and got thrown too ?"
Here there was a perfect roa{• from
all parts of the assembly, and as soon
as order was restored Mr. Hunt pro
ceeded, as he pointed to another son
"Mill Myres, who is that staggering
about as if his legs were as weak as
potato-vines after frost ?"
"Well, I suppose dat ish my son,
too, replied the old man with a crest
fallen look.
"He has been riding your mare too,
and got a tumble."
At this point the old man put up
both hands in a mostdeploriug manner,
and exclaimed; "Now, Mishter Hunt,
if you won't say any more, I will be
still."
This announcement was received
with a roar of applause and. laughter,
and from that moment Mr. 'Hun it had
all the ground to himself.
UNnEmEr.L-Consciousness of unbe
lief is a sign of actual faith. Infidels
are never troubled with unbelief. Dead
men never feel cold. Frozen feet never
ache. And a soul given up to godliness,
and bound hand and foot in sin, has no
trouble with unbelief. It is only when
faith shoots its first illuminating ray
into the darkened heart, that the
baleful presence of unbelief is, made
manifest. It is only when the troubled
soul can say, "I d believe," that it
starts back at the abyss of doubt which
the first gleam of faith discloses, and
exclaims, "Help thou my unbelief?"
Take courage, then, poor doubting
heart. Vexed and tormented by Satan,
you have thii comfort—you are not on
his side any way ? And all your con
flicts and tribUlations of soul.prove that
the dead calm of sin is broken, and
that the Spirit of God is moving upon
the face of the waters; and that "God
who commanded the light to shine out
of darkness,
bath shown in your heart
to give you the light of the knowledge
of tho glory of God in the face of Jesus ,

Col. OhiolEley's Horse.
" I have never been able to• 'ascertain
the cause of the quarrel between the
I
rt
.C,hickleys and the Di kes. They have
lived within a mile o each other in Ill
'idols for five years, a d from first 'ac
quaintance there has'been a mutual dis
like between the two families.
One evening recently, Mi. Drake' the
elder was returning home, with his
pocket full of rocks, from Chicago
•.
where he had disposed of a load of grain
at high figures. Sam Barston was with
him in the wagon ; arid' as they' ap
proached the grove which intervened
.between them, and Drake's house, he
observed to his companion :
" What a beautiful' shot ' Chickley's
old roan is, over yonder 1"
" Hang it," 'muttered old Drake, "so
it is."
The horse was standing under some
trees, about twelve rods from the - house.
Involuntarily Drake stopped his team,
glanced furtively around, took 41p his
rifle from the bottom of the wagon, and
raising it to his shoulder; drew a sight
on the Colonel's horse. •
" Beautiful !" muttered Drake, low
ering his rifle with the air of a man re
sisting a powerful temptation.
.".1 -
could drop old roan so easy !"
" Shoot!" suggested Sam Barston,
who loVed fun in any shape.
"No, no, 'twouldn't do," said the
old hunter, glancing around him cau
tiously again.
"" I won't tell," said Sam.
" I •won't shoot this time, anyway,
tell or no tell. The horse is too nigh.--1
If it was fifty rods instead of twelve,
so there'd be a possibility of mistaking
him for a deer, I'd let fly. As it is, I'd
give the Colonel five dollars fora shot:"
At that moment the Colonel himself
stepped from behind an oak . , not half a
dozen paces off, and stood before Mr.
Drake.
" Well, why don't you shoot ?"
The old man stammered some words
in confusion.
" That you, Colonel ? I— I was
tempted to, I declare ; and as I said, I'll
give a V for one pull."
" Say an X, and it's a bargain."
Drake felt for his rifle, and then look
ed at the roan.
"How much is the horse wuth ?"
he muttered in Sam's ear.
"About fifty dollars."
" Gad ! Colonel, I'll do it. Here's
your X."
The Colonel took and Pocketed the
money, muttering " hangel if I thought
you'd take me up."
With high glee the old hunter put a
fresh cap on his rifle, stood up in• his
wagon, and drew a sight en the old
roan. ' Sam Barston chuckfed, The
Colonel put his hand to his face and
chuckled too.
Crack ! went the rifle. The hunter
tore out a terrible oath, which I will
not repeat. Sam was astonished. The
Colonel laughed. Oki roan never stir
red. .
Drake stared at his rifle with a lace
as black. as Othello's.
"- What's the matter with you, hey
Fust time you ever served me such
trick I swan !" And Drake loaded th 6
pieco with great warmth and indigna
tion.
"People say you have lost your knack
of shooting," observed the Colonel in a
tone of cutting satire.
" Who said so ? It is a lie P' thunder
ed Drake, " I ken shoot."
Dragewas hnran h v tio. ten rods ! Ha ! Ha!"
" Look here Colonel, I can't stand
that," he began.
" Never mind, the horse can," sneer
ed the Colonel, " I'll risk you."
Grinding his teeth, Drake Iproduced
another X. " Here,"' he ; growled,
" I'm bound to have another shot any
way."
"Crack away," _ said the Colonel,
pocketing , the note.
• Drake did crack away, with deadly
aim, tool but thc.horse did not mind
the bullet in the least. To the rage and
utter astonishment of the hunter, the
old roan looked - rim right in the face,
as if he rather lil - ed the fun.
"-Drake," cries Sam, "youaredrunk!
A 'horse at a ozen yards—oh, 'my
eyes!" , - ---
" Just you shut your mouth, or I'll
shoot you !" thundered the excited
Drake. " That bullet was hollow, I'll
swear. The man lies that says I can't
shoot. Last wek I cut ofr a goose's
head at fifty rod , and I can do it again.
Colonel, yod can laugh, but I will bet
you thirty doll, is that I can bring
i
down old roan a a single shot."
The Wager wa readily accepted ; the
stakes were pla ed in Sam's hands.—
Elated with the idea of winning back
his two tens and , making an X m the
bargain, Drake carefully selected a-per
fect ball, and even put on a buckskin
and beaded the I rifle. It was nearly
dark, but Drake boasted of being able
to shoot a bat on the wing by starlight,
and without hesitation drew a clear
sight on the roan's head. -
A minute later and he was driving
through the grove, the most desperate
df men. His rifle, innocent victim of
his passion, lay with a broken stock at
the' bottom of the Wagon. Sam Bars
ton was too much frightened to laugh.
Meanwhile the gratified Colonel was
rollineon the ground, fairly convulsed
with laughter, and old roan was stand
ing undisturbed under the tree. 1
When Drake reached home his -two
sons discovered his ill-humor, and has
tened to arouse his spirits with a bit of
news, which they were sure would
make him dance for joy. ,
" Clear out," growled the old man.—,
"I dont want to hear any news ; get
away, or I'll knock you down."
i " But father, it is a trick', played off
' on the Colonel." I
"On the Colonel ?" ei4d the old
man, beginning to be interelted.
" Gad, if you have played the Colonel
a trick, let's hear it."
" NVell, father, Jed and I this after
noon went for deer—"
" Hang the deer, come to the trick."
" Couldn't find any, but we thought
we must shoot something; so Jed bang

110 W r w l IDN'T GET iiiAERIED.,
•
One evening as I sat-in ihe kitchen,
a thought struck me—why didn't I get
married? The more I hought, the
more I was determined to marry. The
next question was, who should I marry?
There were plenty of girls who I knew
would - have me, but then, I had some
thing to i say about that. At' last I
thought of Sallie Graham, Deacon
Graharn's daughter. She was about
the prettiest girl in Squashville, and
her father had got lots of shiners. The
last inntioned article decided the case.
I wou d marry Sallie ! I had often
walker home with her from paring bees
and siing schools; therefore I had
no feats but she would willingly, have
me. he next Sunday night I' fixed
up and L went over to the • deacon's. I
found the family at home, and they
welconie me kindly. Some two hours
flew swiftly by, when the deacon and
his wife left the room to go to bed, tell
ing Sallie to he careful of the tire. As
they closed the door, I moved my
chair up towards Sallie and entered into
conversation with her, and taking both
her hands in mine, said :
"Sallie, during the long time we have
been acquainted, hasn't it ever occured
to you that I love yon?" •
"Why, Jonathan," she replied,
somewhat surprised, "I cannotsay that
it has." . • .
"But I do love you, and would make
you my wife. Will you consent ?" I
asked gently pressing her hand.
• "Yes, 'dear Jonathan," she replied :
upon one condition."
"Name it," said I.
"Do you then consent?"
- "I do."
:'Well, then as you know I am Some
what romantic, I wish you to meet me
next Wednesday night, with your
horse and buggy, near the school-house.
"What for': I asked.
"I wish to surprise my folks. :We
will go to the, city, Where we will be
Married, and return before my father
discovers my absence, and crave his
blessing."
-
"Agreed!" said I quite heartily ; "I
will be on hand."
\Ve convei•secl a while longer, when 1,
rose to go, saying it was getting rathei
ate.
Wednesday night I hitched the old
mare to the buggy, and drove over to
wards the school-house. Sallie was,
there, and with herastrangegentleman. -
Taking me one side; Sallie informed
one that he was her cousin from tl e
city: Ii helped Sallie into the bugg ',
and boN,k„ , ed to her cousin, who sprit' g-
Jightlylpi, and seated mself by 11 , r
side.
LW(' hot like this, but said nothing.
Whipping the old mare into a good trot,
we soon reached the city. I drove di
rectly to ajustice's office where we all
alighted. -
"We w i l l go in," said Sallie, taking
her cousin's arm, "while you attend to
you r ' horse." . . .
"Very well," said I, unhitching the
old mare, and taking her to the barn.
Ati I entered the house, the strange
gentleman arose, and taking Sallie's
arm within his own, said:
"Mr. Seroggs,lallow me to introduce
my wife, Mrs. Firnane."
"Mrs. Firnane P• said I, looking at
Sallie and then at him. "IV l hat the
devil does this mean?"
"It means," said Firnane,
this i
kti lady is my wife."
So eu hu bv tnder !"
t.tltie exclaimed.
n ”kf
where I hitched up my - horse and gtar
tett for home. At that momentFirnalle
Caine to the door and said': -
"Mr.Scroggs, can we return with
you ?"
"No I'll be d—d if you eau?" I said,
whipping np the old mare.
The next day I heard that,Sallie
Graham had run off with a fellow from
the city, Who had been hanging around
after her all summer, but who, it is
said. her father had refused to 'allow
her to marry.
"Humph," said , I, "that accounts rot
ter romantic ideas !"
My story is nosy ended, and if this
should chance to meet the eye ,of some
beautiful young lady who wishes to
marry, she can address Mr. Jonathan
Seroggs, Squashville, whose heart is as
free as the boundless ocean. za
THE Two LEES.—The• New York
independent says :
Mr. Alfred Lee, the well-known and
highly-respected colored man, who so
long followed the bilsiness of a flom.and
grain merchant, died in Georgetown,
D. C., on the 20th ult., aged 62 years.
Mr. Giles B. Stebbins, who attended his
funeral, sends us the following sketch :
"The house was crowd<l, and hun
dreds tilled the streets. It was no ordi
nary assemblage : for not only were the
culture, and religious influence, and re
spectability of ;the colored people prey-'
ent,'but the best, and highest of the
white popdlation as well ; private wort 1.
and official dignity, and eminence pay
ing willing tribute, by their presence,
to the character and standing of . him
who had passed to another life. Too
late to enter the house, I was thus for
tunate enough to hear the comments of
the outside multitude ;• and learned that'
they Caine, not merely to pay homage
to a little money, but from. regard to a
larger manhood.• And I judge from the
words of some respectable white citi
zens that they felt that a gap, not easily
filled, waslmade in the city by the ab
sence of a fnan of energy, power, gen
erosity, and sagacity. Mr-Lee bought
his time as a slave started .business in
in Georgetown thirty-five years ago,
reared,a large family, was loyal through
the great rebellion, and ever the gener
eus friend of freedmen In their need,
and won the regard of the people by
his personal worth and honor. By
eminent business ability he so overcame
the obstacles to wealth placed in the
path of a colorednian as to leave some
$30'0,000 to family and friends. He had
tt half-brother-,a ' Virginia gentleman ,'

former home, at Arlington, fifteen
thousand white head-boards over our
buried soldiers make silent but effectual
protest against , the return of that guilty

Address, of the Republican State Central
PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 18,1888.
To the Voters of Pennsylvania : -
Within sixty days you are to decide_
at the polls upon the Principlei and
general policy' that are - to ‘ control the
administration Of public Affairs for the
next four: years. On the result hang
the gtave questions of the peace and
good order of society, the prosperity of
the industtial interests, the deVelop
merit Of the resources of the country,
the integrity of • the Union and the

i
guarant es of liberty. r
_.,
At th outset of the contest the party
that foe foiir years paralyzed the arm
of indu: try, by loading it with a bur-, ',
den of wenty-five hundred millionti_pr
debt, ii . 4olved the country in civil waif
and threatened the destruction of the
Union and the overthrow, of Liberty,

has no principles to advocate 'Of meas.

lowers elsewhere to 'defend not g.
With nothing in its history for y rs
worthy to be defehded, it is the part, of
wisdom not to make the attempt; PORI
has manacled the freedoia of the press,
crushed out liberty ofspeech and brutal
ized the public conscience - in fifteen
States. It ostracised every :Man who
had the courage to declare human bon
dage a sin against God and' a flagrant
violation of the spirit and genius pf . the
Republic. It waged atruel war against
the pioneer settlers of the Territories
a mficovered the prairies of Kansas with
Murdered heroes, beeausetheypieferred
freedom to slavery. It established a
reign .of terror,' and made the residence

of me' faithful the principles to the
Decl ration of Independ,enceimpossible •
in m re than half of thp territory cov
ered..) I y the flag of a common country.
Defe ted in its effects to elect a Presi
dent f its choice, it appealed to arms .
to.'nu,l lify the decision of thisballot-box.
In tbe struggle it laid a million or-brave
men in, ,untimely graves, shrouded the
natio» lii mourning, and flooded it with
tears. Such are the ghastly testimoni
als of what the Democracy has done in
years past.
No thanks to that party that, to-day
we 1 ave a country to love or a Consti
'WU in to revere. It didall'in - its power ,
to distroy both. .
. id now itagain seekspower, through
discord and civil-strife. For four years-,
duri )g the height of the nation's' peril,
the inly hope of the party for success
was in disaster to our arms. Hence it
rejoiced at every - Union defeat, and
mourned over every Union victory.
Its' candidate for Vice President de
clared to the convention that nominated
him, that "we must have a President
who will execute the will of the people
by trampling into dust the unsurpations
of Congress known as the Reconstruct
ion acts. * * * ** * * *
I repeat, this is the real and only
question which we should allow to
control us. Itsis idle to talk of bonds,
greenbaCks, gold, and the public credit.
* ,• I wish to stand before the con
vention upon • this issue." 'Thus: was
he nominated ; and Wade Munpton,
ad vocati ngithe ticket before an audience
in South Carolina, declares "that the
cause for which they fought, and for
which Stonewall Jackson died, will yet
be gained in the election of Seymour
and Blair."
If this party can succeed at the bal
lot-box, the work of reconciliation for ,
ror lour yeas will be undone and fb,6
