We ziow invite the reader to accompany ns to the deck of the British man-of-war that lor several weeks had been cruising) about the eastern ooast of the Uniteorf states, driving away Yankee sloops and bombarding small seaport towns. This vessel had hove to near a Jong stretch of nanny neaoa. anean wweniy uiuos above Manoa. and .sens ashore several hundred British -soldiers, under Major Bridges, who was to proceed by land to (ho -village, while the war vessel was to co-onerate with the troops by sea. The Xenophon was one of his British Majesty's stanehest crafts. While not carrying heavy gnus nor as many as ott er vessel, she was tough and trim from stem to stern, and from the bottomjpf her xeei 10 sns sip 01 ner mainiop mass mora was not a single flaw discernible, even to the eje ox a sailor. The Xenonhonwas excellently manned. Officers and crew were all trained and experienced seamen. Captain Montieth frequently boasted that he had-not a man in his crew wno was not capable ox commandrng a vessel. Captain Kontieth was a man who possessed that tyrannical, overbearing disrjoflttian so common among naval officers of the past. He seemed to hold hia crawl bnt little above dogs. Discipline with him had been converted into despotism, and his sailors were treated as slaves. disgraceful flogging scenes for even the most trivial offense wero common, and if a sailor st tempted to desert he was either shot or strong np to the jardarm the moment he was caught. It was late to trie afternoon, and two sailors, both finely formed men, past middle age, having been relieved from onry, were slowly walking an. -xnere was a quiet, sullen air about them whioh becomes habitual to men who have long been accustomed to strict discipline. Neither spoke a word, and from beneath their lowering' eyebrows fiery glances were occasionally east at Captain MontietQ, who stood near the mrzzsn deck in all the sandy uniform and pompous dignity of a tyrant. The sua was descending beneath the horizon, and the two sailors hod long been sitting on the gun carriage. Each was lost in thought, and seemed to know just what the other was thinking abont. -At last, when, the sun had dipped beneath the Jrsean, and the stars began to appear in sight, the oldest and most intelligent of the sailors!, to a voice scarce above a whisper, said: ' iMrwesy x know im coast well. "Ah!" "Yes, and we are only a few hours' sail from llanos. We will reach the harbor and he. warning in bv davlicht if the wind should bo fair. Do von aunrjose the soldiers we landed wfli be there by that time?" xnenrst epeacex renectea a moment and then answered:' "I hadn't thought of that. Dewes. It may be Capt. Mon tieth will beat about a day or two yet, to give thorn time, bnt every moment we dcIsy increases our danger of escape." He spoke in a very cautious -arhisper. Dawes trembled, but was silent. ' There was a took of tha firmest determination on the faces of these men, and one eonld have told at that moment that they hod resolved on something desperate. The entry who was pacing this part of the desk come so near that there was danger of beine heard, so they remained silent until he wheeled and started o the other end of his best. Then the first speaker, : clasping his messmate's arm, said: ilswea, will you go with me?" "Yen." "We mnst doit to-night." ' Dawes nodded. "I will not raise my band against my native country," the first speaker declared. "The British have impressed me and made me- their slate. For fifteen long years I have been a slave, bnt with heaven's help I will be a free man. " ztu voice was low ana aeep. out naa ne ken in trumpet tones of thunder it could not have been more earnest. "I am with ve. Burnett, his messmate responded. whatever port ye steer fur, ye can count on me bein in jer wake." "We are Americans. Dawes, and 'tis enough that we reef and trim the sails for jfnusn man-o -war witnont sneaaing the blood of our countrymen." You're right, shipmate. I've tent ailed aa long under a British flag as I want to, and though there ore ten chances of our bein shot to one of onr aso&pin. I'll desert " Tha last of the sentence was in a very low whisper, and both became silent for again ine sentry was near. When he wheeled abont and returned, Dawes grasped Burnett's arm and asked: "Midnight watch," was the answer. "The boat's ready?" "Yea."' Then thev sat in the increasing dark. ness until the shrill sound of the boatswain's whistle piped all hands below to supper. When the sailors, Paces and Burnett, met the other members pf their mess, there was nothing in their demean or whioh would betray weir utongnts. Each had control over his feelings and motions,' and though they wore about to engage m an aaventnre wmen migat cost them their lives, they were as sullen, calm, and dogged as usual. Captain Montieth required the strictest discipline. I4k many other petty tyrants; ho covered his tyranny with dis cipline. Bnt few words were spoken by we sauors ounng tnevr repast, nnen sapper was over and the sailors disparted, many retired to their quarters, others to the upper deck, to lie beneath the bulwarks or under the gun carriages and pin yarns. There wore two who were silent. Burnett and Dawes were in the morning watch, but neither retired to their hammocks that night. The night was warm, and the weather being fair a great many of the sailors were permitted to be on the gun deck. "What have I to gain by going to my native land?" Burnett asked himself as he paced the deck, his head bowed in deep thought, "Nothing I will be an un. known, uncared-for sailor; bnt then I shall have the glorious consciousness of knowing that I am not fighting my own eouiitrjrnwo. I might have served Johnny Ball many years yet, had they not forced me fo raise my hands acainst America. Burnett, as the reader has doubtless observed, Was superior to the common elass of sailors. Be was not only a fine seaman but a fine physical and intellectual man. ' He was an American, who years before had been impressed into the British service, and although he had borne every intuit a petty tyrant - eonld heap upon a subject, was so thoroughly schooled in discipline that he never thought of desertion until he was required to take a part in tuiftiefrinff en American sea-port town. Kept. ssesKsssB wwiww uuu mat

he was to command the long-torn he determined to desert. It lacked but an hour of the appointed time when theso two Americans were to make a bold strike for liberty. The sailors, one by one, had gone to thair hammocks, and all save-a few restless spirits aud the watch-were asleep. Burnett had not seen Dawes for two hours, though he knew that he could be depended on when the time came. They were not many leagues from the shore, and he was satisfied that two good oarsmen could reach it by daylight. A dark form suddenly glided forward io the sailor's side, and the low voice of Dawes wh'spered: "I've been over the top rail to see the boat." "Is all right?" "Yes." "Pulleys, ropes, and rigging safu?" "Everything safe and taut." "Dawes, do yon think they suspect?" "No." The sentry was coming that way, and the sailors separated. When the Bentry came along each was stand at the rail, though some distance apart, gazing down into the water. The sentry eyed them somewhat suspiciously, and then resumed his beat. When he next came that way both had disappeared. "Guess they art gone below," the sentry said to himself, and resumed his beat. Another hour wore slowly by. The watch felt glad that they would soon be relieved, and allowed to turn in and rest. The night had grown intensely dark. There were tew stars in the heavens, and a light vapor-like oloud obscured the light of even those. A dark form might have been seen gliding along the larboard side of the vessel, from gun carriage to gun carriage, eluding the sentries until at last a point near the top rail was gained, where it disappeared behind 'a stemhaser. The sailojnamod Dawes. was standing leaningverTJffrtoprail gazing down into the yater. The sentry was coming down onhls beat when Dawes suddenly said: Coma hare. Jnek. eomn hare "

"What yer want?" the sentry, demanded. tome, see wnat wis is. . "Where?" "Here." The sentry looked over his shoulder to see if any of the officers of the watch wero in sight, and stepped quickly to the raiU. "Look'ee there; there's a fish wbaw." Ko one would have thought .that whistle a sienal. It seemed nothing more than a surprise, but as it sounded over the deck, the dark form rose from behind the gun carnage, sprang lightly forward, and as the sentry loaned over the toprail. lifted his heels into the air and hurled him headlong into the water. His cry was accompanied by shouts from both Dawes and Burnett. "Man overboard man overboard," they snoutea lusti-y. Almost instantly the wildest excite ment prevailed. The officer of the wcsh ordered a boat lowered and sail shortened. Down went Burnett and Dawes, and in a jiffy the boat whioh swung over the stern was lowered, and they in, rowing straight out from the ship, paying no heed to the marine, who was struggling in tne water. 1 Captain Montieth rushed up from the cabinr-sfld wits soon on the poop deck wiiu lorty or any omens. . "Bring lanterns," he cried. Lanterns were brought, and their light fell on the deserters not a cable's length away. "Hey, back, you rascals! Where are you going?" But they kept on, and the Captain in n fury shouted: "I understand it now. The infernal Americans are deserting. Here, marines, bring your muskets to bear; you can hit them. Fire!"' CHA1TERIV. THE SKTJIMISH AT BELFAST. Griffith Alton felt a small hand press his arm, and turning from the window saw his be'trothed at his side. Her face was deathly pale and she was trembling violently. In a hoarse whisper she asked: wnat is itr I don't know, Ola, dearest. I hope it is nothins of any consequence. Bemain here with yourf ather. Yon will be safe, I think; if not I will have yon taken to a place or satety. "Bnt yon, you, Griffith?" she, cried, frantically. "1 must go," ne saia, in rones nrm yet tender, "My duty calls me there. My love for you demands that I should go ana aeiena von. "Yes child, "snid the old sailor, whom she had long loved end looked upon ns her father, "don't bo a drag on his duty. The port is in danger and it's his place to set all sail and scud afore the wind till he reaches the land sharks who threaten the trouble." "But Griffith, Griffith," she said speak ing very quick and seeming almost suffocated. "There is something about which I wanted to speak. I did not koott I never knew nntil I heard to-night " "Never mind the revelation, dearest," said the young American, quickly. "If shall in no way affect our betrothal. What care I if you are a ses waif,-you aro ae lovely to me hs ever. I cannot be hnppy without you; you shall yet be my lie clasped her but a single moment and was gone. Down that hillside, now grown slippery from the rain which still fell in torrents, he hurried. Ola stood at the window trying to oatch a glimpse of her lover as hs hastened down to where a great crowd of the villagers stood. For a few moment s all was pitchy darkness, and the driving storm aaoVroar of tho ocean prevented her hearing his retreating footsteps. Then a .flash of lightning illumined the entire hillside with the light of day, and she saw the form of the young officer as he ran sword in hand down the hill. Our hero reached the excited group of villagers, end their flaming torches and lanterns revealed standing in their midst, two men who wore the uniform of British Bailors. Simon was doing all he could to keep down excitement, and beyond a doubt it was his coolness that saved the lives of the sailors. "What dees ail this -mean, Hatchet?" the Captain demanded of the blacksmith, who was the first man he chanced to most. "W'y, Griff, yer here, old boy; well, I'm glad ye come," said the blacksmith in an excited manner, beating the breach of his musket upon the well-soaked earth. "What is it, speak out?" "D'ye see them two sailors?" the smith asked. "Yes. WherejKd they come from?" "I brought 'em in," said Hatchet, boastfully. "Me 'u Si Cole wero onpioket out thar on the hill 'n all was dark as a stack o' black eats couldn't see nothing, when all of a sudden thar come a flash o' lightning. We shot at 'em but missed, an' then charged 'em on' they surrendered an' come in wi' us." "Where are they from?" "Dun know. B'peo they're spies, an' we orter hang 'em right np." "Don't they give any account of theirselres?" ' a "Yes," said .Hatchet, still greatly excited. "They say thoy are deserters from that ship called the Tenny-Btone or Jenny Stone or some sich name." "Ob, the man-of-war, tho Xenophon. I wHl see them; they may be all right," said the young officer, elbowing his way through (he crowd to where the sailors Stood, calmly gazing on tha orowd of excited villagers, farmers and impromptu soldiers. Tho Captain know that a great many American sailors who hod been impressed into the British service were deserting and coming over into the Amerioax. army and navy. These might be trying to do tho same. "Who are yon?" he asked, approaching .the oldeBt and tallest of the sailors, who stood calmly among the almost furious Americans with his arms folded across hi 1 breast. "I am James Burnett, a deserter from his Britannia Majesty's man-o'-war, the Xenophon," was the answer iu a dear, distinct voice. "And this man with you!" asked the young Amerionn, favorably impressed with the honest, candid manner and tone of the stranger. "He is my shipmate, Henry Dawes, of Bangor, Miiine. "Why did you desert the Xenophon?" "Because we did not wish to fight our own country." "Then yo-i are Aiaeriosns?" "We are," was tlui answer, with no little degree of pride. At Captain Alton's request Burnett gave an account of bis escape and its unneo. He stated that bo had been for fifteen years in the British navy, having boon impressed into it, end never able to make his swap. That Henry Dawes hod been

impressed four years bel'ore. That the) had become almost reconciled to theii fate, when war with Amerioa was declared, and they resolved tho first opportunity to desert. The opportunity came four nights ago. During the midwntob they had thrown the suutry overboard, ana, on pretext of trying to lower a bout and resone him, had escaped nndor a fire of musketry from the marineo. It was near noon when the; landed on a long strotch of sandy beach. Twice that day they had almost run into Majoi Bridge's troops, who had been landed the day-before their desortion, aud after numerous adventures had reached Manoa an honr ago. The story was reasonable and Was told in straightforward way which oarriod conviction with it, and yet, while there was a possibility of a doubt, Griffith felt that ho could not give entire oredcuoe to it. The lives and liberties of those peofle whom ho had come to protect wore in is hand, and demanded Ike utmost oare. "Sour story is very reasonable," be said to the sailor, "and I am inclined to believe it, but for the present you must oonsider yourselves prisoners. Yon shall be prisoners of war and treated well, until we are convinced beyond a doubt that you are really deserters. The sailors looked a little disappointed for a moment, and then, tho man called Burnet said: "When tho man-o'-war heaves to to bombard you we want to lend a hand in the defense. If yon are taken prisoners you will be treated as prisoners o' war, if we are taken we will be hung at the yard arm." Groffith lookod at the man aud felt that he was in earnest. He had never seen a more honest appearing face in his lifeHe then asked him about the Xenophon, and was sure that the piosent gale would blow her so far out of hor courso that they need not expeot her for two or three days at least. He was informed that Major Bridges, with five hundred regulars and dragoons, was only a few hours march from .Belfast, waiting t ao co-operation of the Xenophon before marching to attack Manoa. The prisoners were taken to the guard house under a strong guard, and our hero went with Simon to his headquarters. Griffith knew the Yankee to be shrewd and far seeing, ar.d regarded his opinion as safer than any otter man's in the village. "Simon, what do you think of these prisoners?" he asked. "Wa-11. Capon," answered tha Yankee, scratching his head in a puzzled sort of.

"I thought I would. But what think yon of the man-o'-war?" "Guess they're abeout right. Capon. Doan't think she'll get in sooner'n they said. Its been blowin' great guns, onli keep 'er up 'till roomie'." The Yankee was right iu his predictions. The storm raged nearly all night, but the wind was hushed to sleep with the rise of the sun, though large waves, rolling unilJlftBbing in foam. crested fury againstrthe rook-bound shorn, attested the fact that the sea still run high.". fTO BB OOSTIKUED.J First Experience in a Sleeping Car. . "I see eome queer, things while knocking around the country," said a travelling man yesterday, "and one of the funniest circmriE tauces that I can recall happened Inst: Saturday night; I was running np the Milwaukee road n few. hundred miles, and when I left Sioux City my only fellow passengers were an old man and his wife, who occupied the lower section across from me. They had their lierth made np early and soon retired. I guess it was the first time they had ever traveled in a sleeper by the way they acted, for they were pretty awkward abont undressing, and I heard the old lady lecture her husband for not getting a larger room. After much mutual grumbling all was quiet, and then came a deep snore accompanied by one a trifle more subdued. It was evident the old people wer,o asleep. At Manila Junction a large party came in and taxed the sleeper to its full capacity; The porter had to romoye the baggage of the couple, which was stowed above thorn, and assigned the berth to a little inoffensive citizen weighing about V20 pounds. He removed his shoos and was climbing into the bunk when the old lady woke np And began screaming. This aroused her husband aud he yelled for the porter, who came running down the auto. ay, there s a man just come into our room,' the old gentleman gasped out. The porter tiled to explain that he would not annoy tnem, ana iiaa a ngut to be there. Jsut neither would believe this, and the old man declared that the porter had let him in to rob then . Ho was also in dignant' to think anyone should be al lowed to sleep m the same compartment as hia wife, and finally he and the old lady got up and dressed, and in sisted on the porter removing the bedding from their btarth, so they could use the seats. I peeped through the curtains and saw them both sitting there nodding, but every few minutes they would suddenly remember and sit bolt upright. I pitied the poor, deluded couple, and really the situation was not lacking in pathos, for they were thoroughly in earnest. When I got off the train early next morning they were still sitting there, out botu were sound asleep, the old gentleman with his arms around his wife's waist, and her head pillowed 011 his shoulder," Chicago Herald. SanVa Latest Tantrum. Sarah Bernhardt's latest catastro phe with her jewels is too good to rnisa getting into print. It seems that Dona Sol left her jewels in a cab, aud on discovering her loss flow off to Scotland Yard, and there found them safe arid sound. AVhen asked, however, to pay the usual percentage on recovered property, and finding that this commission would in tht present instance amount to 105, she was furious, and called it an imposition and asked to see the prefet de police. The guardian of the peace who was attending to her assured her, in his most plausible manner, that she could not see the "chief without an appointment, whereupon Sarah exclaimed:' "Why not? I can see the Prince of Wales without an appointment! Why not the chief of police ?" Finding argument, however apposite, of no avail, la grande tragedienne betook herself to Essex street, to her solicitors, who told her that the police in this case had the law on their side, but advised her to return to Scotland Yard and ask what was tho lowest they would take. Sarah therefore returned and meekly asked whether thoy could not remit part of tho commission, Whereupon she was informed that, considering the circumstances of the case, they would "knock off" JE100 and let her off with 05, which was promptly handed to the fortunate cabman.'

"ifin so well, I guess may bo the pocketbook." Wuy is a man who makes pons very wicked? He makes psople steal pens and then says they do write.

Men As Grumblers.

EN say more evil of women than they 'think; it is the contrary with women toward men." Although we may be inclined to take this epigram of an acute and discriminating Prenoh writer cum crano salis, yet we are forced to admit that the statement is very rich in suggestion. Probably there is no trait of human nature that serves better to mark the subtle distinction between manly and womanly character than the quality of fortitude in woman her ability to bear pain and sorrow in dignified, patient silence. This is woman's courage, as distinguished from man's dashing bravery, which leads him into the thick of dan ger aud adventure in Ms desire for excitement. To a tnorgnr,iui woman our writer's little maxim seems to contain the germ of a carefully observed, well-attested fact. At least the acceptance of it explains much that is otherwise extremely misleading and puzzling. How tedious, for instance, have become tho niisanthropio wails of the callow rhymster of the period, usually a young man who affects the extreme Byronic style, in hair-dressing, collars, and morals, the only thing about Lord Byron which he fails to imitate being the latter's genius. This individual's studies in feminine human nature having usually been in those doubtful fields and byways to which an un wholesome and erotic faney would naturally lead him, the result is wholesale condemnation, in studied meters, of our poor sex, and this with all the assurance of ignorance. There is too much of this nonsense being written and spoken against women. In a certain sense we our selves have, through hearing it so long, almost learned to accept it as partly true, and do not protest much against it. In this subminsion this meek, tacit acceptance of certain cut and dried maxims, which are only worn-out fiction we are somewhat in the same frame of mind as was Topsy, in an in stance in Uncle Toms Uabin. JOiss Ophelia was determined that Topsy should confess her sins, aud poor Toosy, casting about in her mind for something to confess, at last made up an elaborate and entirely false account of a crime that had not been committed, namely, the theft of Miss Eva's earrings. When the falsehood was de tected, Topsy's explanation was that Miss Ophelia would have her " 'fees" to her misdeeds, and she could think of nothing bad enough that she had cominvtted, so made up a etory about-a sin she had not committed. The morbid browbeating of generations has had its effect upon women. We are born penitents, burning to a'fes8." Alas! our harmless little sub terfuges, usually prompted by a heart full of truest love, our white lies, with white motives back of them how pa thetically innocent and harmless do thov appear in comparison with the deliberate and elaborate system of deceit practiced, not toward us alone, but toward their fellow men, by our accusers everyday. Shame upon us for our lack of spirit, sisters, and let us not thus tacitly admit our general culpability, without a little inquiry into the facta in the cose. How long it has been going up, this howl of detraction from all classes and conditions of men, and including such a variety of oross-grained, dyspeptic masculines, ranging from Philosopher Garlyle, tearing ius hair because a rooster happens to crow in the neighboring yard, down to the poet of the "Porkopolis Packers' Portfolio," clear down to Tim Hodge smashing the breakfast dishes and his wife's head, fin his lordly contempt for woman after a night at tha neighboring saloon. As the inventors say, "The principle is the same" in each instanoe. In the case of our poet, however, perhaps an over dose of absinthe, cigarettes, and lazi ness induces a virulent stupor of cynicism, rather than the more active temporary tantrums of the drunken hodcarrier. And atill is the result the same. Poor woman. Trying to restore peace and weatner tne storm.Btie meekly " 'leases that she is tho original author of all woe, a blameworthy, reprehensible creature, very neglectful of her whole duty, which is to keep a kind of earthly paradise called "home" for her revered lord and master a peaceful haven where roosters shall never crow nor duns never intrude, where absinthe shall never give a morning headache, and the word "blizzard" shall be void of all meaning. Barbara Thome in . Chicago Ledger. A Tictlm of Confidence. As I stood one delicious spring day, says Will Hubbard Eernan in the New York Mercury, on the steps of the Court House of Fargo, Dakota, now North Dakota, a homely and hay-seedy young man hip-halted up the walk, and pausing in front of me, said: "Say, mister, I hev $50." " Yes," I replied, ourtly and hardly, half in a tone of query. "An' I want ter know how to apen' it. I ain't no drinkin', ner gamblin', ner immoral critter, any way." "Better seek out some of the poor people iu the back alleys over yonder," I sneered. "Plenty of places in whioh to put an overplus of money. They can spen d your $50 for yoa a sight better than you can." "Erhull $50?" "Yes, er hull $50." "But er hev to mosey to home on er part uv it." "Ah?" "Yaas. Think Pd er better give all eriterway?" "No; not under the circumstances." "Man said ter mo this mo'nin' thatef I'd give 'im $100, 'eed fine me er persition at $200 er week, sellin' books. Think I oughter take er position ?" "Hardly." "Nother man wanted me ter take er ticket in er lot'ry. . Sure thing, $500. for $5 ; but I wanted advice." "I think yer needed it badly." "Couldn't put me onter a job?" "No." He pulled out a roll of $5 bills and counted them carefully. "Never was in a city afore," he re-; marked. "Doan know how ter apen1 this. How'dyou spen'it?" "In various ways. You might get a good suit of clothes, visit the theater and " "Visit the thee-aye-tur? That's what our preacher says is the doorway uv the. . -1 ... , .1, . 1., A T 1 ' aovii, ao, Bir-r-r 1 vjiomes r x uev clothes, hevn't I? I'm not certain. Would you er advise me to hev more ?" "Yes." "Well, TO see two or three others, u' ef they say clothes, clothes it is." As I was passing the police court next morning a voice called: "Mister!" I went in. Standing and waiting a trial was my hero. His clothes were torn, bloody and muddy. He had a black eye and a gory gash on his left cheek, while three of his front teeth were missing. "Mister," he whimpered, "I hain't got er cent. Cau't you pull me through Man advised me to go with him and I went. Got in er room, an' he kicked, an' gouged, an' downed me, an' took all or my money." "Served you right," I replied, and stopping over to tho denk I told the police judge all about the prisoner. Ho was discharged and I loaned him enough to hie off home, ,

A North Carolina Wedding, It was in the Carolina backwoods, a country couple and a country parson. When he had finished the ceremony, he said: "An' them 'uns who God have joined" "Stop thar, parson," said the groom, "don't soy them 'uns, say theso 'uns !" " John," said the parson, "I tech you at school, aud I say them 'tins." "These 'uns." shouted the groom, drawing his pistol. The parson, seeing the movement, fired through his surplice and the groom dropped dead, winging tho parson as he went down. There was a lively fusilade of perhaps 30 shots. When the smoke cleared away a half dozen men were on the floor. The bride peeping over the pulpit, to which she had fled for refuge, gazed mournfully on the scene, and said: "Them a-self-cockin' pistols is a playin' h with my prospecks!''

Cosmus Eckenrode, who lives on the Blue Mountains, near the line of the Berks and Schuylkill, Pa., was out hunting. As he was crossing a small olearing he laid down his gun to gather 'some Blue Mountaini:ea. Shortly-after-he picked it up again and was startled to hear very close to his car, the peculiar whirring which is the signal of the proximity of the rattlesnake. He looked suddenly around, but could discover nothing, when suddenly he discovered the tail of the snake prot ruding from the muzzle of his gun. Ho dropped the gun quickly, but instead of coming out his snakeship crawled into the barrel again. After fruitless efforts to dislodge him, Mr. Eckenrode resolved to fire the gun, which was very successful, and the snake, after taking trip in the air, came down in shreds, oadly used up.
