Farotf, black aaini the livery huriz in, that shapeless sick hovved. Watt was n7 Captain sioiiu in olouged survey ended, he slowly drop-tl ais gU-s and turned to Air Scott, the mate "1 kner I was right," he aid; it was a wreck, a demanded bulK, diifting about at the merry of wind and sta. Tneie maybe nuuue leitaboard, but We 11 bear down aud Lave a look." And then Cajrain Storing lifted up hU voicv a ste.itorian voice it was and gave the prujwT orders tu the men at mast-head ?r-iliiie helm, or somewhere I du'i know exactly. I would tell you the prtcie wordCaotain Sloiius used on this occasion, if I could; but I'm deplorably backward in nau.ical matters. .Sj you'll hive to be content with learning that the gallant bark, the Lovely Lass, bore straight down on that dark mass outlined against the sunny sky. Captain Storms leaned over the side and lit a cigar, lie was a bronzed young man, stalwart aud gallant, aw i take it sailor men in stly are; and he looked the very ''beau ideal" of a daliin seaman, in his off-hai.d seafaring cotuiue. tie had a beard and he had a mustache, big and brown, like himself; and. from the crown of his glazed hat to ihe sole of nis boot?. Captain Storms was a hailor, every inch of him. The Lovely Lass bore down, along the sunlit tropic sea and reached the ti mting wreck. Captain Storm was the tirst man to leap aboard, the first man to hear the faint cry of a human voice. No living thin was to be ewn; but from the corner of the deck that faint, plaintive cry wailed. "There's soiue one alive here still," said Captain Storms. "Speak, friend! Who are you? Where are you?" Again that unspeakably mournful wail. Captain Storms strode across to where a heap of torn canvas and rotten wood lay, aud looked do u. There in the garish sunshine, with her face upturned to the serene sky, a woman lay dead. Crouching over her, a skeleton child, with long, wild hair, sat making that feeble moan of dumb ag'Miy. "My child," Captain Storms said, pitifully; "my child, what is this?" The ghastly little creature lifted a bloodless fice and a pair of haggard eyes. "Mother's dead!" "My poor Intie girl," fair! the sailor, bending over her as tenderly as that de td mother could have done, you must come with me or you will die too; come." She rose up a frail little shadow of ten years-and held m herkeietoii arms. "Peace is hungry." she cried piteousdy. "Peace is sick and cold, aud mother's dead." And then, 3s the strong arms lifted her as if she had been a wax d II, ihn blue eyes Closed wearily, and the weak b nly drooped heavily against his breast; and hunger, aud sickness, and c ll, and death were all blotted out in blind darkness. And for weary days and weary night?, while the Lively La-s sailed along sunny 8 mlieaiteru eas and the de.td woman lay quietly under the great Pacific, the little rescued waif lav fluttering between death and life. An l during the.-e endless days and nights the bi, sun-browned sailor watched ever his little girl as a father nay, as a mother -might have done, until the fluttering spirit cea-ed its srrugles and grew calm iu health and streng" Ii once ru-r. Little Peace her name was Priscilla Weir, she sai l; Peace for short came up m deck hy-aml-by, pale atnl weak still, and lisped out her story to the soft-hearted sailor. There lud been a grea'. storm oh, a dreadful storm!" Peace said, with a shudder; "and tu iimn i was sick d iwu in the cabin and leit behin and Peace stayed wMi mamma and was left behind too. Aud then mamma came up on deck and died, and Peace sobbed, and was so ill, and so cold, and then you came," looking gratefully at the Capta'i ii, "and Peace doesn't remember any more." "Does my litte Peace know where mamma came fr m, and where alie was going?' Captain Storms asked. "Yet, Peace knows. Mamma came from New York, and was going to Chin to papa. Papa lived iu China, and was rich." "but i his was all she could tell; and Cap tain Storms knew tint among all the unlikely things on the eanh. the most unlikely now was that papa and little nirl would ever meet. The lovely lais spent nine long months on the Pacific coast, aud then sailed back for America. "And I shall leave ray little Peace behind, next voyage," Captain Storms said. 1 have a sister who keeps school in Philadelphia, a fashionable young ladies academy and Peace shall stay there and learn to play the p'ano, and talk French, and paint pictures, and grow up a pretty young lady.' "And I shall have silk drese-and lots ot pictures and story books?" Peace asked, with interest "Heaps of 'em, Peace. And nice little girls lo play with, and muic and dancing, and everything beautiful all day long." Peace clasped her hands that would be lovely. So, by and-by, when Philadelphia was reached, the Captain of the Lovely Lass consigned his little girl, a willing csptive, into the hands of Mrs. Lee. Not but that she shed a few tears at parting, to t, and clung lo the sailor's neck, and was very sorry when it catuo to the parting and the good-by kis-t was given. There, there, my little Teace!" Captain Storms Sitd, unclasping the clinging arms. "You inusn't cry like that; it will redden your eye-, and swell your nose, and make you look uglv. Keep up heart, little Peace; I will come 'back in a year or two with a cart load of lovely presents for my little girl. Kis me again and let me go." Captain Storms imprinted a sounding smack on the wistful little tear-wet face nd unwound the clamping arms and walked off, and straightway was whistling cheerily along the deck of the Lovely Lass, and quite forgetful, I am afraid, of his little Peace and her grief. "Dear, good guardian," thought Peace. "He's so kind and so rcood-natured; and it was nice playing on the deck of the L vely Las; but, for all that, I had rather be here, and wear pretty dresses and play with Mrs. Lee's boarder, and never ha afraid of shipwreck any more." Captain Storms sailed for New Zealand; and on windy nights, when the doors and windows rattled, and great soughs cinie down the chimneys, and P?ace lay awake and thought of him on the terrible ocean, and said her simple child's prayer for his safe k-eping. Two years went by, and Peace bad just one letter from "guardy" (guardian) iu all that time, and tint one to say he was coming hack. She was a tall, rather awkwardlo king schol girl of twelve now. with preternaturally long limb, that were always in her way, high shoulders and prom' neu t cheekbones. So Caotain Storms found her When, more bearded and more sunbrowed

than ever, he walked with his sea-swing into Mrs. Lee's prim parlor. Peace sat at Ihe piano singing "My Willies on Ihe Daik Blue Sea." and with a shrill cry of j .y she jumped up and flung herself headforemost into his blue pilot coat. "Oh, guardy! dear, darling guardy! I'm so glad to sec yu again! So glad so glad!" "And so am I, little Peace. Don't choke me with those loni? arms, my girl. Heads up and let me sec you." Peace lifted her flushed face and kissed him ecstatically. "Why, how my little woman's grown;

getting a tall as the mainmast, by det-rge! and as thin as a shadow. Don't they give you enough to eat, reare: "Plenty, guardy; but growing girls are alvvavs thin Mr. Le savs so. And now what, have you brought me from New Zea land? ' "lluhels of things, Peace. They'll be here bv and bv. Ilow does the learning progress? Let in hear vou at the piano." Peace sit do a n and rattled off polkas and wai'zcs "And I can read French, trnard v." whirl it'g'ro iiidou ihe stool ; "and d aw pencil d a imr, you know, and do fancv work. I like everything. And. guardy, when 1 grow up and am a muiJ ladv, and mv education is finished. 1 wain u t tit tii ihe caoin of ihe L ively L-iswith a Ilrmseh :arpe', and a piano, and h'-apsof new nove!s, and take ni" rM with von all ihe time uniil I'm an old woman, won t y u?" Of course I ap'aui S o ms devoutly prom ised, and ro-e up to hike his tt-ave. "I m going to Chin. i tun voia-e, h ; said. pu'limrher long brown braids. "If 1 see papa I'm to give him his little girl's love, 1 supKise?" "Ah! if yon onlv would see him! ' Teace fried, clamping her hand. 'Darling papa! Guardy, he used to In in Hong ICoii, I know. Try if you can und him for me when on go there. Captain Storms nrornned ihn ano and de parted. Peace clung lo him sobbing at the las'. You'll write to me .ftpn this time won't you, ilea-, dear guardv? You onlv sent me one littie stingy letter latt time, you know." "All right. Peace," the Ca:ta'n sai l. "I'll try. I never was anything ot a scribe, but his time I'll do mv bet." So once gairi the Captain of the Lovely Lass left lm little girl, to sail merrily over the world; and once more Peace went back to her books and tancy work. But the in niths strung themselves out. and the years rolled slowly backward, and 'aptain Storms, sailing to and fro in golden E isteru and Southern clinies. never came to take his little girl from sc!.oI. His letters were few and far between, despite his pr.-mises. onlv ix in six long years, and in answers he had received at least sixty. But the sixth ami last announced his coming, and told tier the wonderful news that he had met tier father in Htm Kong, and that she must be ready to go with him next voyage to China. Captain Storms, Inl and brown, and hands inie de-pite his middle ae, ran; Mr. Lee s door-bell, and strode like a sunburnt giant into the boarding-ch parlor. "Hut, ot course, she couhlu t know I was coming, he thought, as ne sent up ins name; ' poor little girl, I hope sho'U be glad to ee )iirtly." The door opened, and a young lady walked in. A tail, ami stately, and irracctul young lady, with a dark, handsome f c;. and waves of suunv brown hair. Surely, surely, this was not "Little Peace." 'My dear guardian, welcome hack! Oh, how happy I atu to see you once more!" l es. Peace, bevond a b übt; but oh, so un utterably changed. Ca i-tain S'orms redden ed un ler his brown skin, and actually stam mered "You surely know rne, I see." she smiled brightlv. "I dre ?av I have grown out of a!! reason. Am I taller than the mainmast now? I was almo-t as tall, if you remember, six year ago." She recoil, c'etl what h hid s.iid all these years, and Captain Storms face beauifd. "I expected to see mv little P'-hcp. and 1 find a young lady so sta'ely and womanly that I am at a ios what to my to her. I'm not ued to ladies' s(ietv, you see." She laid her hand on his arm, and looked up in his honest sailor face with deep.swectly shining eyes. 'Talk t me as you u-ed to and call me Little Teace. Ah, guardy, how I have longed f r yo;ir cumin.'. And my father; tell me of him." Captain Mornn told her how, by merest accideii', i hey had met; how he was rich and lonely and lo g iu; f r her, but unaole to c mie to America; how she was lo return wiih him, and ihat the steward ot the L tvely Lass was to take out his wife with him to wait upon her. And Peace li-icued. like one in a peaceful dream. It was billig a heroine; it was lviuga chapter out of one of her pet novels t romantic iace. S they sailed fr that Lf-otl' laud of celestial tea and pig tuls Captain Siorms and Iiis handsome waid. And Peace had her fairy dreams realized, and there was a Brussels carpet iu the cub n, and a piano ami lot of new novels, and she was as ha,pyas the days were long. Her muMC tilled tue Lovely Lass with sweetest melody; her clear voice rai'g out over the purple midnight sea. in songs sweeter than the siren strains of the mermaids; and her beautiful face lit up the grim old ship like the summer sunshine itself. 1' ace was bright and bewitching, and happv as a bird. Ihe sailors adored her as anangelof liglt; aud the Captain an! the Captain adored her. too. Sailing along, by day and by night, through days of limber suu-hine and nights of misty momligiit, io that dislaut land. Captain St .run, in hit forty-second year old enough and big enough to know better fell madly, and desperately, and ridiculously in love. He lost his sleep and he lost his appetite, ami he hung on the girl's foolish Words, and existed only in the radiance of a pair of laughing, girlish eyes. "F.kiI that 1 am for my pains!" he thought sometimes, in bitter moodiness; "I am more than double her age; and lam rough, and black, and weather-beaten as the timbers of my old ship. No, no, Harry Storm, the only wife for you, my bo, is the Lovely Las." And yet, sometimes he wi lely hoped. She talked to him so happily, she smiled upon him so sweetly ; she was ever so glad wnen he came, so regretful when he went. And girls ot eighteen hail married men of fortylive before now; and, oh, why should it not happen again, and Harry Storms be the most blessed among men? They reached China they reached Hong Kong and Peace was folded in her father's arms. "So like your mother," he said, blears falling. "Oh, my child, sj liae your mother!" " Captain Storms was to tay three weeks in the Celestial City to visit it peruans n.jver again. He made the most of his stay, visiting Peace every dav in her palatial with and growing moodier and moodier home every visit. Peace, too, drooped a little and looked at him wistfully, and lost some of that bright happiness that made her the light oi all place. And when the last day came and he stood to siy ginwl-by, she broke down altogether and cried like a verv cnuu. "And I shall never see yon again," she said; "you who saved m.'life! Oh, Cap tain istorm. must vou go? And then the bashful giant took heart of grace as a landsman would have done weeks before. "I must go." he said, "b it we need not art. my darling Peace, if you say so; for 1 ove you dearly; and if you will be my wife, we will sail together, forever and ever, as you once wished, un'il our heads grow gray. Mine is not far from it now," he added, ruefully. But Peace had thrown her arras impetu ouly around him, and kissed the dark, crisp locks. "And if every hair were white as the foam of the rea. I should love you. and go with you, just the same. Why, Captain Storm, you nave been my hero all these long years. and I should have died of di appointment, I know, if vou had left me behind." So the China merchant lot his daughter. and the L ivclv Lass had a second com minder; and in all the years to come Peace win reign perennial in the heart ot btorms wxxinesj io waatever way we iook at i nver sleeps. It is holy life, bating inarch with the Heavenly tunei; singing always the Divine psalms of love.

FIVE MEN'S WONDERFUL ESCAPE.

Blown 120 Feet and Not ft Bone Broken. I Deer Lodge (Montana) New Northwest, Nov. 4.1 The principal grading of Clark's Fork Di vision of the Northern Pacific Railroad is being done in Hell Gate Canon, between New Chicago and Bear Mouth. About nine miles below New Chicago is what is known as "the lower rock cut" The grade is twelve or hfteen feet above the Hell Uate Kivcr, and the rocky bluff out of which it is being blasted is twenty or twenty-five feet higher On Tuesday morning of this week a "sand" or "crevice" blast was set in thU bluff. The main blast consisted of seven kegs of black powder sunk to a depth of hfteen or twenty feet, with two smaller auxiliary blasts set with shorter fuse to oiien the ctevice. It being but a short distance below the company store. Nelson Bennett, contractor, end F. H. An derson, book keeper, walked down to see the shot The fuses were fired, the men nought shelter, and two explcsions followed in quick succession. Bennett said: "The shots have all gone off; let's go down," and s-arted down. Some said, "No! the big shot is not 'ff yet! but he kept on. Ai derson, R hert Dunn, Mike NcCarty, and Ch tries Keiohenberc following. fcome one oa-k called out again, "The big Bhot i-n't tired yet!" Bennett, who by this time had reached the portion of the bluff which was mined and saw the rock undisturbed, is reiorted to have re plied, "No; but she's going now, and so are we " And sure enough they did. The seven-keg charge exploded with terrific force, throwing what Engineer Morgan estimates at 300 cubic yards of rock out toward and into the river and carrying with it the men named Some of them were thrown 120 feet out into the river, being projected even further than the buik of the rock which tilled up the river bed and turned it out un the southern bank. Those witnessing the sight were filled with horror, and it was not sup;osed one of the unfortunate men would be found alive.. Con steruation prevailed for the moment, and the workmen flocked from all directions. Their astonishment was great when one bv one the exploded men began clambering out for the shore, and was complete when everv one was taken from the debrisjand river to ihe shore alive. All were more or less cut up about the head, and some had cuts and bruises on their bodies. Their faces covered with dirt and blood. clothes mired and ta'tered and reeking with water, they presented a horrid spectacle. and thinking only skillful surgery could save them, a messenger sped to "the tele graph olrice at New Chicago and requested immediate attendance of Doctor Mitchell, from Deer Lodge. When the Doctor ar rived he found the men had all been taken to camp, their wounds bathed, plaster ap plied to the cuts, and not a bone was broken in any of the rive men who had performed thu marvelous vault through 120 feet of space on 300 yards of rck, propelled by villanous saltjietre. Mrs. Bennett, Mrs. McLain and Mrs. Wells were fortunately in the Camo. ami next to surgical attention. which was scarcely necessary, their minis trations had been skillful and successful. Mr. Bennett has some ngly face and sea in wounds, and Reichen berg also had a severe scalp wound. Anderson was somewhat bruised up. When Doctor. Mitchell left Wednesday morning, all but one of the men were up and moving about comfortably, and it is not thought that any of them are ar all danger ously hurt Even before the doctor arrived they were joking about the adventure, Bennett claiming he made the best jump and the others asserting he started "over base. It is certainly the most remarkable acci dent, considering the circumstances and escape, we have ever heard of. The dis placement of rock was enormous, the bulk moved bei ii4 as large as the McBurney House. We have made Careful inquiry aa to the facts and to the distance stated aa that which the men were thrown, as also the leight of the clitT above the river, and the above is the least estimate made. Had the eruption bewn of earth, or had the men fallen clear in the water, or if there had been but one man and he had escaped, it would not have been so marvelous, but that five men should be hurled 120 feet In air among 1.000 tons of granite, fall with it and n it ana among it, and escape with only a few trivial cuts and bruises is beyond com prehension. Queen Victoria. IDaily Telegraph, Oct. 27. A remarkable event was yesterday accomolished. The great and glorious reign f Queen hhzabeth surpassed in its duraion only by those of King Henry III.. King Edward HI. and King George III. has now been itself outdone by the forty-four years and 12S days during which her gracious Maistv Queen v ictoria whom Heaven ing preserve has happily and prosperously ruled this British Empire. So interesting omt of chronology in the annals of our monarchy calls for some loyal notice. Few lave been the sovereigns in our own or any lynasty, and fewer still the Queens, whose :ands have held a scepter for so extended rid. Nor can it for a moment be doubted that the auspicious reign, which to-day be comes eldest save three in the records of the Island Realm, has immeasurably surpassed n prosiienty, progress and achievements of civil, social and intellectual gain not only the renowned and fruitful sway of Queen itess, but those of all our other precedent Kings and Queens. Thucydides observes that men always consider the war in which they themselves take part as the most imtortant ever waged, and the more recent years of every flourishing nation naturally seem, and would be, indeed, most fraught with fresh development". There have neverthelessarisen marked epochs in thestoryof humanitv.when all things appeared combining to produce a socially memorable era, con densing, as it were, the gifts and glories of previous times and introducing new births f civilization. One of these epochs is felt by universal present consent, and will stand adjudged, we think, by the voice of posteri ty, to be the glonous and gracious reign which to-day transcends the Llizabetban limit Poets and writers to come will as suredly speak of the Victorian era as one not Jess plainly s'anding forth than the ttic or the Augustan. Long may it nour ish, and far be the date when that mast noble sovereign lady, whose name it will forever wear, exchanges her earthly for a heavenly kingdom. Tint alreadv th f:vwh is complete enough to form for present and future historians an age conspicuous, splen did and successful: during which, in the van ot the wide world s march, England baa achieved an advancement throwing into shad even the rich and wonderful davs of our Maiden Queen. There are those, indeed who believe tint during this past half cen tury Great Britain has touched the zenith of her fortunes: but such despondent nronheti have not taken into account the magnificent bequests of power, pride and unity, which a reign like Queen Victoria's will devolve. Foremost among the golden profits of this epoch we would place in as much sincereity as loyalty the life, the virtues and the iiersonal influence of our sovereign. In time of shock and change and reckless theory, she has concent-ated round her illustrious person proofs. perfect and visible, of the advantages ot the hrm set monarchy which can concil.itc a boundless private freedom with public order, authority and reverence. She has in her forty-five blameless ami noble years of rule blended Queen and mother in her relations to her people, making her home the model ot their homes. Sagaciously comprehending and exercising the large and loftv power which constitutional reforms still reserve for a prudent monarch, she has "governed" in the bet sense as well as "reigned," so that there is no citizen of tne State who has done it nearly so much true and constant service as its head and mistress. This is true of affairs upon the Imperial side of the story of the reign; it is true of affairs in civil, military, political and parliamentary matters; but deetest and strongest of all is the delicate sway which Her Majesty has weilded in the realm of morality and humanity. By a process finer than history can well follow, she has become the friend and consoler of all sad hearts; the watcher and rewarder of all heroic deeds; the ever thoughtful companion of her subjects in all their national joys and sorrows and the mouthpiece for them at home and abroad. whenever some great word of compassion, of couraere. or of friendliness had to be spoken. No better example of this could be desired than the tender truth with which the queen

recently expressed the sympathy of her country toward the American people while watching the death-bed of General Uartield. And no better proof of the value attached to her words could be wanted than that most graceful end generous tribute which the United States paid lately to our flag at Yorktwn. saluting with respect and affec

tion the symbol against which they once so stoutly fought. Never before in history did any Queen wield such proud or potent royalty as this which, by a few wafted word's, cemented in friendship the two Engl inds of the old and new worlds. A New National Anthem. I 'i I General Oliver Paul Gooding, of the St. Louis bar, has compose 1 a new pair. otic ode entitled America." which has been d dicatd to The OU Fiag." It has been stt to martial music by Mr. Alfred G. R byn, and has been published in sheet form. Trc music is said to beasttirring as thstof "The Marfieillabe." The words are as follows: America! Home of the free! 1 reads thy soil no slave; Dear land of lH-erty, Thy sons are all brave. Wavr on ! Wave on ! The O d Flag forever! No foe hall tread thy Foil, Nor alien thee Rlnve: No tyrant ihe lill rpr.il. Fur thy sons aie brave. Wave on ! Wave on ! The Old Flag foiever! Bappy lmd t the fre.

Among the msny beautiful hymns eiven to the worla by women, none is more beau tiful than the onecomnuncing "One sweetly solemn thought,' written bv rhoeSe Urv. For vears this lovely littli hymn ha I wan dered up and don and all around the earth, breathing its preciou influence into thousands of hearts and liv s, be torts its universal popularity became known to its author. Ab.)ut a year before her death an incident o mnected wiih this hvmn. was brought lo her knowledge, and became a souttM i f great j"y to her tender hnrt during the remaining m ntbs of her life. Be low we give the hvran, and the incident as it is related by an intimate friend and biog rapher of Pi cebo Cry: NKARER HOME.

A gentleman in China, entrusted with the packages for a young man. from his friends in the United State?, learned that he would probaly bo found in a certain gamblini house. lie went thither, but not seeing the young man, sit down and wait! in the hope that he might com in. The place wa a bedlam of noi9ea:nen getting angry over their cards, and frequently comingtobloffB. Near him p.st two men one young, the other forty years of age. They were betting and drinking in a terrible way. the eldf r one giving utterance continually to the foulest profanity. Two games had bon finished, the young man losing each time. The third game, with fre.h botib s of brandy, had juft begun, and the young man sat lazily back in bii chair, while tha ldcr 6huf3ed his carls. The man was a lor. time dealing the card, and the y ung man. looking careleidy about the room, b' trn to hum a turje. He went on, till a length h oegan io sing me nymn ot i'i cee uary, beginning, 'Uno sweetly solemn thought.'' The word?, says the wrherof tho story, repeated in such a vile place, made me shudder. A Sabbath- chool hymn in a gimbling den I But while the young man sang, the elder stopped dealing the cards, jtared at the singer a moment, and then throwing the cards on the fl or, exclaimed: "Harry, where dil you learn that tune?" "What tune?" "Why that tune you've been singing." The young man said Ledil not know what he bad been tinging, when the eldrT repeated the words, wiih tears in his eye, and the young man stid he had learm d them in a Sahbath-chool in Armrica.

I have misled you, Harry, and I am turry. Give me your hand, my boy, and say tht for o'd America's sake, if for no othr. 301 will quit this infernal business." The gentle man who tells th storv says he saw the two men leave the gambling house together and walk away arm in arm. The sequel of the story is this: The elder of the two men re turned to California and became a hard workine Christian man, while ''Harry" renounced gambling and all its attendant vices. The Governor and the Stage Driver. The late Mr. Seward, with his beak-like nose and not particularly powerful or strikingdooking face, was often taken for what the "low-down" Southern crackers call an "ornery" person. Once, when he was Governor of New York, he was riding in the western part of the State on the outer seat of a stage with a driver, who proved to be not only loquacious, but a violent opiwinent of Seward and his polic . Finally, after be had denounced the Governor to his heart s content, Mr. Seward said: "What would yon think if I should tell vou that I am William H. Seward?' "What would I think" with a look of withering contempt "I should think you a d fool, if you expected me to believe that such a looking enss as you are was Governor of the State of New xorkl" Mr. Seward used to tell this story against himself with much gusto. Honor is like the eye, which can not suf fer the least impurity without damage; it is a precious stone, the price of which is les sened by the loa fit flaw. Bos suet. SOCIETY DIRECTORY.
