tion that anybody ever went to sleep when there was a bargain to be made; and in the period to which I now refer, when the English fairly settled in possession of New York by twenty years of occupancy, exceeding wide awakeness was the rule. Nor was anybody troubled with squeamishness. Therefore it was that our townsfolk, paltering no more with fortune than they did with moral scruples, set themselves briskly to collecting the revenues of

the sea.

These revenues wero raised by two different systems, which may Vie likened, for convenience'sake, to direct and to indirect taxation. In the first case, ourjrobust townspeople put out to sea in private armed vessels ostentatiously carrying letters of marque entitling them to war against the king’s enemies — which empowering documents they construed, as soon as they had made an oiling from Sandy Hook, as entitling them to lay hands upon all desirable property that they found

volved in the direct levy*; yet was it, being safer in a business way and almost as profitable, very extensively carried on. Euphemism was well thought of even then in New York: wherefore this more conservative class of sea-robbers posed squarely as honest merchants engaged in w-hat they termed the Red sea trade. At the foot of the letter, as our French cousins say, their position was well taken. Their so-called merchant ships dropped down the harbor into the bay and thence out to the seaward, carrying, for merchant men, oddly-mixed ladings, whereof the main quantities were arms and gunpowder and cannon-balls and lead, and strong spirits, and provisions and general sea stores. Making a course to the southeastward, they would slide around the cape to some convenient meeting-place in the Indian ocean, usually Madagascar, where they would fall in with other ships—whereof the lading was eastern stuffs, and spices, and precious stones, and a good deal of deep-toned yellow-red Arabian gold. No information was volunteered by their possessors, a rough-and-tumble dare-devil bushy-bearded set of men, as to where these pleasing commodities came from; nor did the New Yorkers manifest an indiscreet curiosity—being content that they* could exchange their New York lading for the oriental lading on terms which made the transaction profitable (in Johnsonian phrase) beyond tiie dreams of avarice. When the exchange had been effected the parties to it separated amicably; the late venders of the oriental goods betaking themselves, most gloriously drunk on their prodigal purchases of West India rum, to parts unknown, and the New Yorkers decorously returning with their rich freightage to

their home port.

Neither of these methods of acquiring wealth on the high seas, the direct or the indirect, seems to have received the unqualified indorsement of public opinion in New York in those days which came and went again two hundred years ago; yet both of them were more than tolerated, and the Red sea trade unquestionably was regarded as a business rather than as a crime. Because of which liberal views in regard to what might properly enough be done off soundings, or at out-of-the-way* islands in the ocean sea, it is a fact that at the fag-end of the seventeenth century our enterprising townsfolk were sufficiently prominent in both lines of marine industry—as pirates pure and simple, and as keen traders driving hard bargains with pi rates m ike purchase of thair etoler goods—to fix upon themselves the illtempered attention of pretty much the whole of the civilized world.

Never yet, on first measurements on entering tin? school, has a subject presented himself whose bodily perfection chanced to score accurately with those of the very perfect onethousandth man.

and they were led by one Lomahungyoma. They were opposed to progress of any kind, and wanted to follow in

the steps of their forefathers.

After Solomai had finished his speech their chief rose to reply. lie substantially admitted the truth of Solomai's statement, saying that he and his fol- ; lowers did not want to be civilized or | have their children go to school, or to j wear white men’s clothing or to eat white men’s food.

In the spring he intended to take away more of the fields of the followers of Solomai. He also added that the difficulty could be settled in no other way

BURIALS IN ANCIENT JAPAN. Practice of the Old Time* Which Han Keen DUcontinued. Prior to the year 040 A. D. the Japanese had one of the most horrible burial customs that can be imagined— that of hurrying the immediate friends and retainers of a prince or other person of note in a standing position around tiie potentate’s grave, and leaving them in the earth up to their necks to perish of thirst and hunger, says the St. Louis Republic. The custom cannot be said to have been general as late as the date given, for the Japanese records prove that in the time of the Emperyr Suinin (97—30 B. C.) the burial rites of royal personages were so modified as tb partially abolish former cruelties. Speaking of ayoungbrother of Suinin, who died and had his retinue buried standing around his grave, the old record 8ay*s: “For many days they died not, but wept and cried aloud. At last they died. Dogs and crows assembled and ate off their heads. The emperor's compassion was aroused and he desired to change the manner of burial. When the empress died soon after the mikado inquired of his officers if something in the way of a change could not be suggested, and one proposed to make clay figures of men and bury them as substitues.” That this did not entirely do away with the former custom fe proved by an edict issued in the year G46 A. I), (the date given first above), which forbade the burial of living persons around the graves of noted persons and provided a penalty for further adherence to the awful rite. TOOK THE OATH ABROAD.

SOME EXPENSIVE DRINKS. Five Hundred Dollar* a Bottle Is What One of the liothschllds Once raid. A lady high up in the prohibitionary circles of New Jersey has a bottle of wine in her cellar over fifty years old, for which a Union League club man offered $30 for a chance to test it only, and then to buy it at the lady’s own price. Although she does not desire to drink the w*ine herself, she says the wealthy clubman has not money enopgh to persuade her to part with it. Wines do occasionally fetch extraordinary prices, says the New York Advertiser. At a recent auction in London some Madeira, supposed to have been presented by Napoleon III., was sold at £3 3s. a bottle. Imperial Tokay has been sold at £3 a bottle. A few years ago two bottles of old Burgundy were sold at £80 each. There are a dozen cases of holy wine at the Hotel de Ville, or town hall, Bremen, which have been valued, considering the original price and cellarage and interest for 250 years, at £400,000 a bottle, £54,476 a glass, and £00 a drop.

William Kuril. King, Who Wa. Running Mats with Franklin I’lerc. William Rufus King (born April 6, 1786; died April 18, 1853) was a vice president of the United States who never served ifi that capacity, nnd one who took the oath of office on foreign soil— something which can be said of no other executive officer elected by the people of this country. King was an invalid, says the St.. Louis Republic, but his friends urged him to take second place on the ticket with Pierce in 1852. Both were elected, but Mr. King’s health failed so rapidly that he was forced to go to Cuba early in 1853, some two and a half months tiefore inauguration day. Not having returned to the United States by March 4, congress passed a special act authorizing the United States consul at Mantanzas, Cuba, to swear him in as vice president at about the hour when Pierce was taking the oath of office at Washington. This arrangement was carried out to a dot, and on the day appointed, at a plantation on one of the highest hills of Mantanzas, Mr. King was made vice president of the United States amid the solemn “Vaya vol, con Dios" (God will be with you) of the creoles who had assembled to witness the unique spectacle. Vice President King returned to his home at Cahawba, Ala., arriving at that place on April A7, 18»3, ami died on the following day. His remains were laid to rest on a plantation knowu as "Pine Hills."

SAVED HIS BURNING SHIP. An American Captain's Novel I'lan fi Saving Vessel and Cargo. One of the most brilliant pieces of ocean-wrecking seamanship on record, whereby the vessel, far out in the Atlantic, with her cargo on fire, was saved and brought safely to port, was performed on board the American ship John Jay, commanded by (’apt. Samuel Jackson, says Harper's Young People. When two weeks out the cargo was discovered to be on fire. The captain determined upon his course of action. He hud the carpenter lowered over the rail and instructed him to bore several holes low down by the water line. The vessel was then put on the other tack so that she would be heeled over on the sides where the holes had been made. The water shot through these openings, and after the ship had been allowed to sink almost to the level of the deck she was put around on the other tack again, so that the holes came within two or three feet of the top of the water. Several of the sailors, with lines made fast under their arms, and holding long wooden pegs and hammers, slid down along the side, steadying themselves by ropes that had been passed under the vessel and hauled taut, so that they came alongside of the holes. The tapering pins were thrust into the openings and knocked tight, then the vessel was put before the wind to get an even keel, and the crew turned to ami pumped her out. Hard to Hay. Even in the present age of enlightenment and progress, there are always people who are not as fully informed as they desire to be. An American who had spent much of his time among the Indians of this country, found himself, during a visit to England, seated at table next a genial and talkative woman, who seemed thirsting to hear of all his thrilling experiences. "And now about wigwams,” she said, anxiously, at one point of the narrative with which he was endeavoring to entertain her; “are they so eery venomous, or have 1 read exaggerated reports?" “I have never known," the traveler says, “what she thought she was talking about, or what in my confusion 1 said in reply."—Youth’s Companion. lioLliersuuAd Names.

Sad Tale of Two Johns. We regret that all is not harmony in the ranks of our friends the spiritualists. It gives us pain to learn that two of their most brilliant and trusted mediums are almost at daggers drawn. The Light of Truth, "an exponent of ! the new philosophy, here and hereafter, ” published at Cincinnati, contains along and interesting letter from one of these mediums, Mrs. M. T. Longley, denounc- 5 ing the attempt of the other medium, Mrs. Smith, to steal from her her “control. ” Mrs. Longley avers that for years her control has been a great and glorious spirit named Rev. John Pierpont. Wh -u the lady left off her connection with tiie spiritualist paper known as The Banner of Light, Rev. Pierpont announced that he broke off his connection with The Banner of Light, too, and followed his

pet “mejie. ”

But now comes Mrs. Smith and says she, too, is controlled by Rev. John Pier- j

pout, and that he writes for The Banner II NO T T TTT'T'TT of Light same us lie always did. There- ^

at all, but another John. As earnest of her faith she offers to hire a hall and gj before the public in open contest with the Smitli lady to determine which is the genuine John. If her John answers questions best and most eloquently, then indeed is lie the only Pierpont, but if Smith’s John beats the other in argument then Smith's John is the man. This is very interesting as opening up a new phase in spiritualistic history.
