BETTER THAN GOLD.

Bettssr than grandeur, better than gold, Than rank and titles a thousand fold, Is a healthy body and mmd at ease, And aim pie pl asures that always please ; A heart that can feel for another's woe. And share its joys with a genial glow, With sympathies large enough to eniold All men as brothers. Is better than gold. Better than gold Is a conscience clear. Though toiling for bread in an humble sphere, Doubly blest with content and health. Untried by the lust or cares of wealth ; Lowly living ana loiiy mougai, Adorn and eanoble a poor man's cot. For mind ami moral, in nature's plan. Are the genuine tests of a gentleman. Better than gold Is the sweet repose Of the sons of toil when their labors close; Better than gold is the poor man's sleep. And the balm that droops on his slumber deep, Brings sleepy draughts to the downy bed, Where luxury pillows its aching head, But he nis simple opiate deems A shorter route to the land of dreams. Better than gold Is a thinking mind. That in the realm of books can fled A treasure surpassing Australian ore. And life with the great and good of yore ; The sage's lore and toe poet's lay, The glories of empire fade away ; The world's great dream will thus unfold, And yield a pleasure better than gold. Better than gold is a peaceful home. When all the fireside characters come, The shrine of love, the heaven of life, Hallowed by mother, or sister or wife; However humble the home may be, Or tried with sorrow by heaven's decree. The blessings tht never were bought nor sold, And center there, are better than gold. THE RUNAWAY SHIP. I had command of the old Evershot, a good ship, and one which put much money into the hands of her owners. She was built for the India trade, and with the exception of one voyage to Smyrna, she had stuck to the purpose for which she was put together. On the present occasion she was bound for India, and my cargo was made np of a curious variety. I had for passengers an old gentleman, whose head was white and his form bent with years, and his three, sons, the .youngest of whom was abont 35 and the eld est not lar irom ou years, xnea mere were several women and some half dozen children. "We had doubled the southern capes of Africa, and were just poking onr nose into the Indian Ocean.when a circumstance happened which was destined to try onr nerves somewhat. One afternoon one of the men in the foretop reported a sail very near ahead in the line of oer course: "Some home-bound Indiaman, probably," remarked Mr. Lee, my mate. T nodded assent, and then went to the cabin and told my passengers that if they had anv letters to send home they had better have them ready, for perhaps we were about to meet a ship bound to old England, lhey went to work QDen my suggestion at once. and in the course of half an hour we had a letter bag neatly sewed npand directed. The wind was now a little south of east, so that we stood upon our course northeast with freedom, and the comii-g ship was heading very nearly upon us, thougn as we came nearer she kept away a little farther to the westward. 'Is it an English ship?" asked my white haired old Dasseneer. "I think it is," wasmy reply; and just as I spoke my mate came down from the foretoD. where he had been with the glass. noticed that his face looked troubled, and also that he kept back some remark which he was on ttie point of dropping, at the same time regarding the old passenger with a look that seemed to indicate that he was in the way. I took the hint and carelessly walked forward. Mr. Becket, the man in question, followed me. At the gangway 1 stopped. 'What is it?" I asked. "Why, sir, that Bhip is the old Dorset," said he. "The Dorset?" I replied. "Impossible." "But I am sure," persisted Becket. 'There's not another ship in England with such a figure head. Those two girls are not to be mistaken." 'Bat are yon sure she has that figure head?" 'Certainly. You'll be able to see it from here in a few moments. "But," said I, "the Dorset has not yet had time to reach Sidney, let alone getting back as far as this." "Of course," answered Becket, with a keen glance about him, "but don't you think shir could run away without doing the erund she had in hand?" "Eh?" That's all I uttered at the moment. !or a strange thought was beginning to work ts way to my mind. "Yon remember what sort of a cargo the Dorset had. don't you?" my mate remarked. Of course I remembered, for I met the captain of the Dorset the day before she tailed, and had a quiet dinner with him at Cowley's. He was an old friend of mine, and aamed Bumstead Harry Bumstead and as rood a sailor as ever trod a deck at sea. Now the facts, as tbev came crowding rather un tleasantly upon my mind, were tbese: The Dorset sailed iust two weeks before I did snd took out 33 convicts who had been sen tenced to transportation. These, of course, le was to drop at Sidney or Port Jackson, end as he bad part of a cargo for that place. le was to go there first. So I knew that the Dorset had no business 'to be running away from the Indian Ocean now. "What: ao yon thick aoout it: askea Becket, who had been watching me. "Let me take the glass," said I, without sseming to notice the question. He handed me the glass and I at once leaped upon the horseblock and Jset the focus. The coming ship was now so near tiat the hull was nearly all up, and my first look was upon the figure head. There could tw no mistake now. I could distinctly see the two female forms, clasping each other by the hands, I knew to be the adorning .figure of the Dorse tfa eutwater. "Mr. Becket," I said, after I had satisfied myself upon this point, "that is the Dorset, and no mistake." "Tea, but what do you make of it?" "What do you make of it?" I asked. He pondered a few moments, and then said: "1 think the convicts have taken the ship." "So do I," was my rejoinder. As I thus spoke 1 walked aft to where my first mate stood by the wheel, and drawing Jbim one side I told him my fears. He leaped upon the rail and gazed off upon our neighbor, and when he reached the desk again he was of my opinion. "It most be so" he sai he said. "What shall we do?" That was the question. Whatsball we da? The ship had now come to within half a mile, and all doubts respecting her identity were at an end. I now knew that she was the Dorset, and of coarse felt confident that the-eon victs must by some means have gained vossession. 'She didn't have the best crew that ever was." remarked Lee, neryously. I knew some of her men, and they were as precious a set of team ps as ever breathed." This made the matter worse stllL Of my whole crew I could muster but thirty men, counting the tree able passengers, baring set five men on shore at St. Helena, siek with fever, and being unable at the time to make their places good. On board the Dorset there would be three-and-thiny convicts, and in all probability a good part of the crew perhaps forty men in all. What shall we da. To let the ship pass on nnder such circumstances seemed hardly the thing for an Englishman, and to engage with such a renegade creww as sheer madness. 1 1 asked my officers Wi'iat they thought, and they thought just as 1 d.'d. I explained the matter to my three passengers, and they would help me if they could be assured they would be of any use. But during all this time the ship in question had been Bearing us, we haying steered so as to tpgsk with ber, and bow she was not

more than two cables' lengtbs distant upon our lee bow. "Ship ahoy!" 1 shouted through my trumpet. "Halloo!" came back from the other ship. "What ship is that?" "The Ben Franklin," answered the same voice, the owner of which wore a Scotch cap and Ted bhirt. "Where are you bound?" "To New York." "Belong there?" "Yes."

At this moment she "had ranged ahead far enough so that I could see she had the American flag at her peak, which had been before hidden by her canvas. There werecertainiy for;y men leaning over her rail, and I knew at once that we could not easily overcome them. At that moment, had mv ship been near enough, I could have jumped on board and engaged with those men eiogle handed. What had become or poor Harry jtsumsieaa, thought I, and the few men who might have remained faithful to him? While these thoughts and a thousand oth ers were wildly rushing 'hrough my mind. the Dorset passed on. I knew is was my old friend, for all the lies they had told in an swer to my questions. I had no thought of conjecture on the subject; out mat tne snip was the Dorset I knew just as well as I should have known my own brother. As the ship passed on, I saw a face at one of the quarter-windows. I seized the glass and leveled it. It was the face of Harry Bumstead, as sure as fate. And he waved a handker chief toward me with the most frantic ges ticulations. The sense of pain was justsinkmginto my whole soul, when an idea Hashed across my mind that caused me to fairly leap to my feet. All was now hope and bustle in my brain, and as soon as possible I got my wits into working order. "Put the ship upon her course again, x ordered. "We can do nothing?" said Backet, inter rogatively. "Wait," said l in return, "it isn s too late yet." "Hut" "Stop. Wait until I have shaped out a plan, and tnen you shall know it." It was now quite late, for just as poor Harry Bumstead waved his handkerchief at me the last time, the sun was sinking into the western waters. I watched the Dorset until distance and gloom combined to hide her from me, and I knew that she was bound for the Atlantic I saw her take in her lofty sails in preparation for the night, and I felt my hope increase. The last I could see she was stering southwest. As soon as it was dark I had the neim np, and ordered the ship to be worn around upon the other tack, and as soon as this was done I set the course due south, and crowded on all sail. The officers and men gathered round me, and wished to know what ail thiB meant. "It means," answered I, "that I wiA have those villains in irons again, if I can." "But how?" came from half a dozen. "I'll tell you. Oar ship is by all odds the best sailer, with even sail S3t; but now that the Dorset has only top-gallant sails over double-reefed top-sails, we can shoot ahead fast. By midnight I calculate to be further south than she will be, so I'll keep on this course until I'm sure, and then I'll run to the west'rd and lie in waiting for her. I can tell you better when the time comes. But I'm not afraid, for I won't run Into danger." The breeze held fair, and we carried our royals and studding-sails below and aloft. At midnight I knew we must be considerably further south than the Dorset, but, instead of running directly west, I changed the course to west-sou'-west, knowing that thus we should come upon the other's track soon enough. At 3 o'clock I made a careful reckoning of the point the Dorset must strike, if she kept her coarse southwest, aad I felt sure that we were just where we should be. My first move was to heave to and take in sail: and then I sent the top gallant masts on deck and housed the top masts. Next, I had all our arms brought upon deck, and I found we had more than enough for a brace of pistols and a cutlass to each man. After this I had the pumps rigged, and bardiy bad this been accomplished before the look out reported a sail. I hastened forward, and could plainly see the outlines of the top hamper of a heavy ship looming np darkly t-gainst the sky. 1 had the lanters hoisted, and then set the men at work at the pumps. Erelong the sbip came near enough to hail. She put down her helm, and laid her course to run under our stern. '.'Ship ahoy!" came from the Dorset for I could make out the drapery of the figure head. I made my mate answer at my suggestion, for fear the villains should recoguize my voice. "Halloo! send a boat on board!" yelled Lee, just as the Dorset passed under our stern. "We've sprang a leak, and our ship is sinking. "What have joa got on board?" "Furniture and provisions, and $10,000 in money." The Dorset hove to and lowered a boat, which was soon alongside, full of men. The villains quickly began to come over the side. "Haven't settled much yet," one of them remarked, as he noticed how we stood. "We've kept the pumps going well," I said. 'Where's your gold? Let's have that flist." "This way," said I, moving to the poop. When halt way there I motioned for the men to stop pumping. Down!" I uttered, and as I spoke I gave the man nearest me a blow with my cutlass across the head that knocked him down. Only 15 of the men had come from the other ship, and as my crew were prepared, these lo were down and gagged almost before they could realize that anything was out of the way. They were unprepared, and nearly all of them were unarm ed. "Ship ahoy'" I cried through my trumpet. speaking as grumtly as possible, to imitate the voice of the fellow 1 bad knocked down. "Halloo!" came in reply. "Send another boat. We can't bring half. Send quickly, for the old thing is sinking." The Dorset soon lowered one of her quarter boats, and came alongside with ten men in it. They came harrying over the side, and as soon as they were all in the gangway we fell upon them not wildly, but with regular system and in a short time they were secure. My course was now simple. I first saw every man so firmly bound that he could not move, and then I called 24 men into the two boats, still, alongside, leaving only six men on board of my ship. We pulled for the Dorset as smartly as possible. When we came to her gangway 1 saw several heads peering over the rail, but we had taken the precaution to put on the Scotch caps of the con victs, and they had no suspicions. Bucket was the first on her deck, and I followed next. "Got the money?" asked a coarse fellow. "Most of it is in the boats now," I replied. "Rig a whip and we'll have it aboard." The villiau had not noticed my weapons. I recognized in him at once the boatswain of the ship a man who had been hired at Liverpool, and whose character was not among the best. As he turned to order the whip rigged, and I saw that my men were all on board, and drawing my weapon I sprang upon him and cut him down. At the first onset on board my own ship I had been careful not to kill any one for fear I might be mistaken; but I was not doubtful now, for some of the prisoners had confessed the crime. There were seventeen men aft on board the ship for me to capture, and we ctipiurea mem without losing one of our own men and only killing four of them. As book as our prisoners were safe I made my way uo the cabin, and in one of the quarter gauem's i lounu captain uu ma read. In the hold of the Dorset we found fifteen of the crew in irons. Bumstead explained to ue in a few words what bad. happened.

Only five days before, the boatswain, who had shown much insubordination during the voyage, headed nineteen of the crew who had joined him, and, having set the convicts free, they fell upon the rest of the crew at night, and made an easy victory. The first and second mates they had killed, and the boatswain would have killed all hands, but the rest of the mutineers refused to have it done. So it bad been arranged that the captain and his friends should be confined, and set on shore on the first out-of-the-way island they could find. It was soon arranged that Btmstead should proceed to Sidney with his fifteen faithful men. feeling sure that the convicts could be so confined as to be Eafe. So I saw his prisoners faithfully ironed, and then took the mutineers on board my own Bhip, intending to carry thera to Calcutta. They were fifteen in number, four only having been killed in the conflict. That- night the Dorset tacked and stood away for Australia, while we kept on up the ocean. We arrived safely at Calcutta, and before I left Captain Bumstead arrived, and the mutineers soon after paid for their crime with their lives.

MISSED MAIL, An Accumulated Mass of Stun" for the Dead Letter Office at Washington. Cleveland Leader. A leader reporter happening in at the post office yesterday, beheld the large magazine of gosds which have been sent or attempted to be sent by careless parties during the past few weeks, and for one reason or another has stopped here. Deputies Hardy, Harding, etc , were engaged in cataloguing the matter, and boxing and bsgging it preparatory to sending it to the Dead Letter Office at Washington. There were about 200 packages in all. By permission the reporter was permitted to look over the catalogue and examine such of the articles as be saw fit The first class of the matter was that which had been dropped into this office and could not be sent on for one reason or another. "Here is a pack ace," said the depnty, "which contained Christmas gifts for the whole family. There is a pair of gloves for the mother, a pur of mittens for the little girl and a little plate for the baby." It was all properly addressed as follows, but had no stamps upon it: J. 1). Johnson, 20rt Richmond street, Toronto, Onu Another package in this same ciass was quite large, and evidently filled with dry goods, It was addressed: Arthur Stewart, Esq., Sunny Side, No. Springfield, Manitoba, Dominion of Canada. Jan. 7, 1879. It had ten three-cent stamps upon it, but could not leave the office, tor it weighed 27 ounces, while the limit in weight beyond which a package can not go when directed out of the country, is eight ounces. A paper box, carefully directed to a young man in the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railway office, when opened was found to contain a china doll. It wasnot delivered because there were no stamps upon it. Two pairs of ladles' shoes or slippers bad plenty of stamps upon them, but no address. Another package was addressed with a lead pencil and the directions rubbed off. A box of considerable size with the following written upon it was detained because it weighed 12 ounces, while it should only weigh eight ounces. Mr. Albert Mili.ek, Prescolt, Ont., Canada West, Box 29. There are many other packages of interest in this class which can not be noted. The second class includes a number of packages addressed to such places as can not be found in tbe post office directory. The following are illustrations of there : A package to Muss Lllik A. TJrnest, Ciresoville, III. Another to D. Lawrence, Haslem Spr, O, dtill another: Charlie E. Inman, Statersvllle, 111. The third class of packages, and by far the larger one, is that of articles which have been sent from other places, and in transit have got their wrappers torn off. and so are handed over to tbe office at this point by the railway mail service. They are carefully catalogued, and, to show some of the peculiar things that are from time to time consigned to the mails, specimens are here with submitted. Beginning with tbe head of the list it reads: 1. Thirteen boxes cards. 2. (Jsime of "Old Maid." 3. )ue box type. 4. Two electrotype plates, b. One piece type metal. From this point selections are made from tbe list whish best show tbe character of the pile: One rubber stamp, three pocket knives, one steel spring, one small key, one button hook, one gold tooth pick, mouth piece to cornet, one black breastpin, one lady's gold pencil; one key tag, marked Captain Drake; one card oi sums, nve tin wniNites, six pen Holders, one lot of fine saws, one lead pencil three pieces polished steel, one piece of tobacco, two packages of cigarettes. 85.21 Inclosed in envelope, one picture frame, one package laud office warrants, one tooth, one lady's shawl strap, one pictnre frame, three gold rings, one cuuu s sum, one oox oi oerries, one set oi plated spoons. One of the things strictly prohibited from being sent through tbe mails is glass of any description. This is pretty generally understood, bnt still people will disguise bottles and other articles made of glass in one way and another and entrust them to the tender mercies of Uncle Sam's poaches. A nam' ber of these prohibited articles bave been taken out. The most interesting are three square bottles of medicine evidently put up oy some local physician, it has the direc tionsas to the time and quantity of adminis tering the doses written on the outside. How the patient did patiently wait, and conva lesce much faster than he would have done with the doses faithfully administered! Another package contains bottles of Dr, Pierce's medicine. Still another is that of a large bottle which is empty, being sent as a sample. One bottle containing a very bad smelling oil is'placed in a block of wood with a bole bored in it. The oil began to leak and re vealed the nature of the package. These glass packages can not even be sent to the dead letter othce. They will be de scribed to tbe postmaster general in full, and the ios t master here will await orders in re gard to their disposal, which will probably De that they be destroyed. "There is a large quantity of this matter at this time of the year," said tbe deputy. "I suppose that Chicago will have three or four times as much as this, and New York will have a dozen times as much. People never learn anything so tar as care in these matters is concerned. Come in after month or so, and we will show you another lot." Impertinence Rebuked. We are not told to what country the indi vidua! belonged who got so well matched in the following story: "A person more remarkable for 'inquisitiveness than good breeding one of those who, devoid of delicacy, and reckless of rebuff, pry into everthing took the liberty to question Alexander Dumas rather closely concerning nis genealogical tree. 'You are a quadroon M. Dumas, he began. 'I am sir,' replied M. Dumas, who bad seen enough not to be ashamed of a decent he could not conceal. 'And your grandfather?' 'A negro,' hastily answered the dramatist, whose patience was waning: 'And "may I inquire what your great grandfather was?' 'An ape, sir?' thundered Dumas, with a fierceness that made his impertinent interrogator ehrink into the smallest possible compass. 'An ape, sir!' My pedigree commences where yours terminates' "

UTIMU I at SI9HT OF HOSE.

Tbe Sad Story or a Tonnt Ctrl ob tne Steamer Bolivia. New York Star. The Anchor Line Steamer Bolivia, which arrived at this city yesterday morning, had on board the dead body ol Miss Eleanor A. I Leonard, who died on the previous day, just as the steamer came into port. Miss Leonard was unattended when she got on board, and mingled very little with the other passengers Only once or twice did she make her appearance on deck, and then it was noticed that her handsome features .were kept closely veiled. Something appeared to agitate her. but not until the second day out did Miss Leonard consent to make a confidant of anybody. Then Dr. Milne, the ship's surgeon, was hastily sent for by her, and be found her in great agony. Miss Leonard then confided to him her terrible secret tbe old, old story of love and betrayal, with just a tinge of romance in her own particular case. To tbe doctor was given, unsolicited, the name of her seducer, and it proved to be that of a well-to do resident of Fishkill Landing, N. Y. From her story it was soon gleaned that tbe father of tbe child kept an es'ablishment of some magnificence on the banks of the Hudson, where Mrs. Leonard, her mother. was housekeeper. Being a married man, the girl's betrayer determined to avoid all scandal by sending his protege on an excursion across tbe water. This was several months ago, and Miss Leonard went to Scotland, where she bad some relatives, leaving her mother in total ignorance of her d'sgraca ana ot her purpose in going abroad, bach was the briff history of Dr. Milne's "case," as he found her on shipboard. Shortly after the physician's summons the child was born, lbe young mother begged the scrgeon not to make it known among the parsengers. The child was taken care of by the stewardess, tbe poor girl express d no wish to see it. To tbe stewardess she offered her watch and trinkets to keep the child after the arrivAl of tbe vessel in Xew York, nnlil she should come to claim it. On the tilth day out Miss Leonard informed the doctor that she was f-trong enough to get up, but be used his authority and insisted that she should remain quiet until her arrival in New York, lu despair ihe lady then stated tbat her mother would meet her on her arrival and it would kill ber it her disgrace was known. A day or so after she was very nervous, and she got up and dressed. Chilla came on. and the poor girl died just as the steamer was passing Sandy Hook. On tbe arrival of the Bolivia at Pier No. 20, North- River, the captain telegraphed to tbe man who was named es tbe father of the child to come to -New lork at once but made no mention of the death. The individual, however, sent Mrs. Leonard, saying tbat, on account of business, he was unable to come. With some misgivings tbe tond mother took a train for New York, and upon reaching the vessel was made acquainted with the sad facts in the case by Captain Small. - Yesterday afternoon Coroner Woltnian, attended by his deputy. Dr. Cushman, took he depositions of the ship's surgeon and the mother of the girl, and stated that an autopsy would probably be made and the verdict given te-day of to-morrow. Dr. Milne gave the particulars as stated above. au 1 the mother testified that her daughter went abroad last July unattended urst to ber uncle's, in Stockport, England, then to her father's brother, in Dublin, then back to Stockport, and from thence to Glasgow. Her mother said she knew absolutely noth ing about the girl's condition, although she suspected something wrong between her and tbe lather of tne cmia. "soe complained of being in bad health, and I consented to her departure, said the mother. "1 beard of her regularly by mail, ana knew she was coming by the Bolivia. She is an only child and 28 years of age." The body of the girl was removed from the vessel last evening by an u dertaker, and it will be kept by him until further arrangements are decided upon. The child remains on board the vessel. Why Women Marry. Vanity Fair. The question which we considered last week, "Why Men Marry," Is an interesting one; but it must be pronounced inferior in interest to the question ''Why Women Marry" in the degree in which men are in all respects less interesting than women. The willingness of women to marry is greater and more patent than tbat of men ; and, we will add, tbat it is a great deal more won derful. That women have, to use a callo quia! phrase, tbe worst of it all through life. we entertain no doubt, and that the matrimonial state as understood by experience, has, as a rule, fewer attractions for tbem than for men, we also believe to be true. Yet where there are many men who from choice abstain from marrying, and still more who put off marrying till the last practicable moment, we doubt if there are any women worth mentioning who refuse the married state from option and deliberation, and not many marry who postpone marrying till a late period of life from a repugnance to having a husbaad. That women refuse individual men, and sometimes go on refusing man after man, is true enough ; but then their objection is to the man and not to the condition of life the man proposes; or, not unfrequently, tbeir refusal arista from more skittishness, trom a feeling tbey may do better, or from a cheerful conviction that there is plenty of time to "think about it." As a rule, however, women wbo have the chance of marrying marry, and they would marry yet more promptly than they do were it not that they are ; frequently held back from taking a foolish step by wise parents or dissuading friends. How i9 this apparent paradox to be explained? There is lees to induce a woman to marry tban to induce men; yet men hesitate to marry and women jump at marriage. Home will answer that man is a rational and woman an irrational animal; bat over and above the distinction being too uncomplimentary to be true, it is one of those plausible explanations that ex plain nothing. Again, it is sometimes af firmed that, in marrying, men sacrifice lib erty, whereas women, in marrying, acquire it. But this is an epigram easily disposed of. When men sacrifice what is called their liberty by marrying, they are already tired of their liberty, or that particular form of it which bachelorhood enjoys, and were tbe point thoroughly examined, we suspect it would be found tbat tbey abandon a form of liberty of which .they are weary for another form they have not possessed. Serkeya Tea. A substitute has been found for Madame Rachel's "beautiful forever" specfiic in Serkys tea, which is pe scribed as all tbe rage in Europe. It Is claimed that it will give the firmness and freshness of youth to the oldest face, if drank copiously and regularly. It is, repot t says, the color of amber, resembles no other tea, is drank with or without, sugar or cream, and is a very agreeable beverage. For recommendation, it has an indorsation of its virtues by Louis XIV. 's physician, who spoke of it in his travels, asserting that he bad seen women of 70, who having drack Serkys all their lives, did not seem more than 20 or 25. Secular aad Rellicloas Mem-papers. Buffalo Express. Rev. Matthew Hale Smith says the newspapers of the day are more religious tban the religious papers proper; and it can not be denied that they occasionally have articles which do not express a desire to cut off the heads of tbeir theological opponents or to bnrn that other denomination alive. It doesn't do a bit of good to take a 12 mile promenade in a 14 foot room with tbe baby, and sing or declaim, "Hootchie, pootchie, pudden and pie." Use Dr. Bull's Baby 8rup sad be done with It
