CAST UP by the SEA.

CHAPTER XIII— -Continued. While not only were the instruments of vital importance: but the box likewise contained Almanac and thechqyjts of the Indian Ocean, including tlie east coast of V Africa, together with drawing and r writing materials. The next in value to the astronomical instruments was the brace of excellent pistols. faint idea of the happiness such an unexpected treasure can afford. Riches depend upon their actual value, and at that moment nil the gold of the earth would have been utterly useless to Ned; but under tfie f. present circumstances no gift could have e. j ualed that which had providen fal y fallen into their hands. Rejoice u uirtheir good'fort uue. the boys four poles into the ground, 'which they had" brought from the ship for that purpose, they steadied them by cross-pices firmly lashed adl'oss.over which they stretched a couple of sails, which, being doubled, effectually protected them from the burning sun; the roof of their tent being completed, they strained the canvas upon either side at an angle and pegged it to the ground. In some places the rock prevented them from driving in the pegs, accordinglythey rolled large masses of coral into con venient positions, to which they attached the cords that stretched the sides of their tent. They now arranged a few chests, which they-car-ried with some difficulty from the raft, and, having heaped up two masses of sand in an oblong shape like raised asparagus beds, threw a sail over each, and forming a pillow by nor extra hillock at the end. they completed a couple of couches more roomy and comfortable than the hammocks in which they had been accustomed to swing ou board the frigate. By the time their work was; complete they were hungry and thirsty. Taking a draught of water, thej’ determined to boil a piece of bOef, and, choosing a nice fat joint from their stork, Tim collected a quantity of firewood from the drift timber ou the shore whilk Ned prepared afire. He had no tinder, neither were there any small twigs, nor anything that is requisite to light a lire; however, they had plenty of wood, and as sohie fragments of deal cases had bee?i ,-cast ashore, and thoroughly dried iu A.the sun, he selected a piece with * straight grain, and sharp knife that • huug from Tits side fie split it into fine slips; he then took a plane from the tool chest, arid with another portico of, the wood he supplied a ting off a portion of dry canvas from the ragged end of a sail, he bruised about a teaspoonful of gunpowder, with which he rubbed the sail cloth until it was _ per fectly blackened; he then spreicTa small pinch of"powder on the surface as he pTac 7 ed~tt~iir-the pan of an unloaded musket and pulled the trigger.ln an instant it ignited and burhtfiereely. —Ned now rolled up the burning cloth and placed it in the center of the shavings like a bouquet, which he swung rapidly around with the full force of his arm 4 uutil the draught of air fanned it in __ to a flame; upon this he placed the sma'l wood that he had already prep iryd. and as it readily took tire he piled cautiously larger pieces iu proportion to the strength of the flame, until a large oakendog at length lay on top of the pile. The tire now blazed brightly about ten yards distapt from the tent. It was near sunset, and the great heat of the day had passed; there were no sharks in the shallow water within the outer reef; therefore Ned took off his clothes to bathe while Tim was cooking din ner. He plunged in the clear water and reveled iu the luxurjof a bath, especially as he would be able to change his clothes and enjoy a clean shirl froui Ten Stevens ‘ outlit. He dare not put his feet to the bottom on account of the sharp coral and shells, but. having incautiously done so as he was coming out, he discovered that the object that had cut his foot was a huge mass of fine oys- ► tors, cemented together so as to form a rock of about two hundred weight. Calling to Tim for assistance, after much labor, they succeeded iu rolling it to the shore uud surveyed their prize in some perplexity, as the oysters were curiously contorted and •most difficult to Open. Ned had already broken the point of his good knife, when a happy idea struck him. “Give a hand, Tim! he cried, “and let's roll the rock close to leeward of the fire; the wind will blow the heat upon it, and the oysters will open by themselves.” “Massa Ned know de trick!” replied Tim exultingly, as he put his ' shoulder ta the work,,and they presently had the rock in the desired position. The heat was intense; the .surface of the mass first became dry, then several oysters eaped widely, and in a few minutes the example was generally followed, and as Ned turned the other side to the fire the entire rock bristled with the gaping shells. •,, >' Tim was delighted and enjoyed the feast, but, being a cook, he contrived a good dish, and stewed some of the oysters with broken captain’s biscuit ,and small portions of salt beef. Salt they had none, but they had a fire, a kettle and sea water; thus thev kept the kettle boiling briskly, which they refilled as it evaporated, until the brine bocame strong, when it was 'bo.U4 «arly dry, ana a considerable •up* *t salt was procured of good

BY SIR SAMUEL W. BAKER.

.*>- 51 After an excellent dinner, which they finished as the full mobn rose, Ned determined to discover the latitude by the meridian altitude of a star; accordingly he walked some distance from the blazing fire, and looking attentively at the heavens he singled out Capella as the brightest star near the meridian. After a careful observation with the sextant he completed his observation and diseovered that the reef upon which they stood was situated in south latitude Iff degrees. Sffmainutes, He could only guess vaguely at the longitude, but considering the run pf the frigate durihg the hurricane, Open reference to the chart of the east coast of Africa, he came to the conclusion that their position was not more than fifty rniles from the mainland,~and that the current must have carried the 6hip into the northern mouth of the Mozambique channel, to the klip I .:fxtreme pbmT dl Madagascar. The latitude of Zanzibar was 7 degrees 20 minutes. This being a Portuguese settlement, Ned hoped to reach it either by sea, should the wind be fair: or, should they gain the mainland he trusted tb*arr»ve there- on‘TootA- laeither case the voyage upon the raft would be most hazardous, but, as the weather would most probably be settled after the recent storm, Ned resolved to start without loss of time, lest the present fair wind should change. He accordingly communicated his intention to Tim, and he arranged to stnft on the following morning. . The night was cool and delightful, and as bright as the full moon of the tropics could shine, without a cloud. Ned wished to stroll round the narrow island before he left on tlie morrowy therefore,calling Tim and Nero to accompany him, he walked along the edge of the' coral reef.

They had proceeded about half a mile when they arrived at a spot where the rock was no longer abrupt, but a beautiful snow white sand, the debris of wasted and wavo worn coral, formed a wide shelving beach for some hundreds of yards in length. Upon this plain white surface were a number of low dark objects that looked like casks, which, washed ashore, had becqpie half imbedded in the sand. The nearest was about a hundred yards from them, and as they approached, to their astonishment, it began to move Jtoward the sea, “TurtleT shouted Ned. dashed forward to cut off the ture’s retreat. ‘"Go at him, Nero}! he cried, as the dog shot ahead of his master iu the race. In a few seconds Nero was vainly attempting to hold bv the hard and slippery shell; but’ as the turtle had drawn its head under cover, it stopped until Ned arrived, when he dexterously, turned it upon its back. In the mean time Tim had run on and out off the retreat of several others, which he had turned upon their, •backs. In about a quarter of 'an hour eigh t , large tur.tks had been. thus captured, and Ned quickly discovered that this bank of fine sand was a favorite Spot/ for depositing their eggs. There were numerous holes that had been freshly scraped in the sand to a depth of about eighteen inches; in some of these were several hundreds of eggs that had been laic! from time to time during the nocturnal visits of the turtles. These curious creatures are in the habit of visiting the shore after sunset, but seldom or never during the heat of the day. during which they remain either floating laaily on the surface of the water, or iu the cooler depths below. At nignt the female seeks some sandy beach, in which with her horny head and fins she excavates a hole some distance above high water mark: in this she lays the jpumber of eggs that may be ready for the deposit, after which she carefully yovers them with sand ahd ConyeauTthe r&fceut mea valkm. ~’ Every flight she returns to the same spot aud reopens the hole, in which she deposits a fresh batch of eggs, as a hen daily visits her nest, until from three to six hundred have been laid. When the number is complete the femalbleaves the nest to the action of the sand heated by the sun’s rays, and by this simple process of" incubation the young turtles, when no larger than a crown piece, free themselves from the eggs atjd work their -Wav through the sand; upon arrival at the surface they follow their natural instincts, and scramble to the sea in crowds, where a great portion are devoured, not only by the larger fish biit by other turtles. The eggs are good eating, and are extremely rich; as the exterior is never hard like the egg of; a bird, but is tough and flexible like fine white kid, they are easily packed without danger of breakage. ’ Ned rejoiced in this unlooked for supply of fresh food for their voyage. Several turtles could easily be stowed upon the raft and be kept alive by simply pouring a few buckets of sea-water over them during the day. Food they would not require, as the . stomach of the turtle has a wonderful power of contraction; and one of the peculiarities of this creature is, that it can continue for many days without eating, and still retain its original weight, if only wetted with salt water. Ned determined to leave his immovable captivee on their backs during the night, and to call for them with the rafts early on the following morning, as he perceived a much wider and ippx» practicable outlet from the reel than that by which the raft had entered. It was v, *.

through this wide entrance that the wares had washed the sand that allured the turtles as a resting place. Delighted with their evening’s work, Ned and Tim returned to their “tent, and in the cool and bright night they replaged the chests upon the raft, struck the tent, and got everything on board in readiness for the deDarture at sunrise. At the same time they did not forget to lay a piece of canvass upon the deck, upon which they piled about two hundred weight of sand. The canvas beneath was to prevent the sand from, running through the crevices between the planks, and disappearing like .water through a leak; the pile of sand was to be the foundation for the cooking-fire. After this all was completed by the stowage of a quantity of firewood around the foot of the mast. Ned rose afterXsound sleep in the fresh open airs The stars were" still faintly twinkling in the gray skv, and the moon was bright, although as pale as frosted silver. It was anhour, before sunrise. and he wofir Tim, who was snoring like a young PissAs all preparations for departure ! had been wisely made on the pre-1 vicms day, there was nothing to be j done but to shove the. raft off the shore, and with a delightfifl breeze the sail filled and they glided plesantly along the smooth water. In about ten minutes they arrived at the sandy breach, where they found their they had left them. Some were that they could hardly carry them; but. as the great object was to keep a supply of fresh provisions, they rejected the largest,and selected thxee that weighed about seventy pounds each. These they carried down to the raft, and then turned the rejected and heavier turtles upon their flappers, which they at once made use of by waddling down to the water, iu which they disappeared. Both Ned and Tim hurried in their work, and they were not long in cob lecting several hundred egg s. which they stowed in one oi, their chests. I They then set sail. The exit from the basin was broad, and, as the wind was fair, the raft steered- into the open sea without any difficulty. The extra weight of the turtles, and the sand, firewood etc., had made the raft so heavy that Ned detirrnined to steer for the nearest shore; he therefore directed the course duq west, in the hope of reaching the African coast within about fifty or sixty miles- The wind being light, was extremely favorable, a>-ahe sea was smooth,and the steady /pressure upon the sail propelled the raft at about three mileswan hour. . Although this appeared tedious, Ned computed that twenty hours of even progress would bring them to the land, and he only trusted in the continuance of the breeze. . - The raft was well supplied, they had about eighty gallons of water, which would last twenty, days at a fair consumption for three, including that" Required for cooking. They had a large.Aquan.titV; of salt -beef, three turtles, ancTsbme hundreds of eggs. Thus there was no fear of starvation, and the only danger ..mited in foul weather./Ned ai> ranged that one should sleep -while the other steered in alternate watches of four hours, thus neither would be fatigued. ? •, It was about 7 a. m., when, the raft-fairly cleared the-coral island, and as she insensibly glided along the water, they soon lost sight; of the wreck of the frigate, and then of the hospitable but dangerous reef; around them was the sea horizon, with the burning sun above. While Ned had the helm, Tim placed some thickly folded sails across the chests and barrels, anc\ creeping into the shade beneath he soon fell asleep. At the expiration of the watch he relieved Nea. who in his turn Crept into the snug shade and - slept till 3 p. m., when he once more took his place at the helm. ■ The evening came, and with it the same cloudless sky and bright stars. At length the moon rose and continued w i ththemthroughbutthemght j and the wind blew steadily, but a little fresher than before; the water rippled as the raft increased in speed. Nothing could be more beautiful than the night; they floated quietly on as though in a dream, and the placid sea glistened tranquilly in the moonlight and looked as though it must for ever rest in peace. As Med stood at the helm, with his faithful companion and his dog sleeping side by side, he looked steadfastly at the heavens and their countless revolving worlds, with a heart overflowing with gratitude he fervently thanked the Almighty Creator for the preservation of his life, find prayed for his help and guidance in the'unknown path before him. The breeze blew steadily and fresh, and the night passed away; the raft had never altered her course from the west; once more it was Ned’s turn at the helm before the sun rose. A haze from the sea covered the horizon; the morning was gray, and the first red streaks shone low on the eastern sky; the wind was faint,a«d the raft moved slowly forward. Xpo morn grew lighter, and soon the crimson flashes in the east turned to a golden blaze, as the sun rose glorious from its ocean bed awakened for the day. The haze dissolved as the warmth increased, and clear and blue the long wished for scene burst upon Ned’s view. “‘Land!" he shouted. Tim sprang from his hard couch at the startling sound, and Nero, too, role, and although ignorant of the cause, the dog shared the enthusiasm of bis master. Apparently not far distant were lofty mountains, the outlines of which were sharply defined upon .the sky as the sun shone vividly upon them.

Within Six miles of the raft the shore was distinctly visible; unfortunately, at this moment it fell calm, and the sail hung listlessly upon the mast at the very time when they longed for a brisk breeze to conclude their voyage. Ned determined to lighten the raft and to paddle her forward with oars; accordingly they threw overboard the sand and firewood, er with a quantity of the salt beef," and one of the heavy< chests; this made a great in the buoyance of the vessel. The water was the heaviest portion of the cargo, but they dare not wate this, as there might be no supply on shore. “Fire _ sVer"‘sOme"mOrb"beet,”cftedNed; “we have three turtles, and biscuits enough to last a month.” Tim looked wistfully at the good beef, as one by one he threw the large pieces overboard. “Dat’s enuff, Massa Ned!” said he, “Don’t trow, all de good meat away; ’pose we get hungry one day, eh?’ 1 “Suppose the wind should change and blow off shore before we land,” us? We must lighten, |h e raft as much as possible; throw all the beef overboard except"half a dozen pieces, then heave the heavy chest away likewise.” Tim obeyed the order in exceedingly low spirits, and being of a careful disposition and deeply interested in the commissariat arrangements,' he pushed the large chest overboard first, after he had emptied the contents, and then h§ reluctantly threw another piece of beef into the clear water. Hardly had the joint splashed into ,the sea when a dull, cloud like appearance was seen in the deep wafsr close to the raft; this became more dense, until a distinct and huge brown body rose rapidly to the surface, and turning upon its side, a long white belly was exposed as it opened its huge' jdtvs and swallowed the piece of beef that Tim had just thrown overboard. It was an enormous shark, and as the water was as clear as crystal, it • could be distinguished as minutely asthough it were nin a glass case as a specimen—the long sci mater-shaped back fin frequently protruded above the surface as it swam fearlessly and apparently lazily around, the raft with its large white eye's.gleainiug as it hunted for fresh prey. “Oh my eye, Massa Ned!” cried Tim, “dere’s a big shark been and swallered de beef! Tank God Tim’s not de beef!” “Shoot him with one of the muskets,” cried Ned who was at the helm; and at that moment snatched a loaded musket from the chest in which they were stowed, but, upon second thoughts, he laid it domip and,diving among the miscellantp ous articles in the carpenter's tool box, he quickly produced a large shark hook about sixteen inches long; a; chain of about two feet in length was already attached with a swivel, and Tim with great quickness fastened it to a rope. Having prepared his tackle within a couple of .minutes, he now stuck a fat and tempting piece of beef upon the kook; but the shark had disappeared. “Why didn’t you shoot him as I ...told.yo«?-” asfceSLNed*. .AiNoro we-'ve. lost him. ” Tim replied by throwing his large bait far into the water; and the fat beef could be distinctly seen far be-, low, as it hung about four fathoms beneath the surface. —“He’ll come again. Massa Ned,' 1 said Tim. “don't be fraid.. If he see Tim bake a syim de shark come catch him quick, I knows, now Tid cateh de shark. I seed him when he swim round de raft wink’d his big eyes; he thought, ‘Dere’s Tim—like to swaller ’im!’ Now' Masaa Ned, wait a little, see Tim swaller de shark.”

As Thn gave this little programme of the entertainment, he slowly drew in the line, and as the piece of -white beef came near the surface several small fish, striped like perch, of about two pounds weight, followed the bait, which, having smelt, they darted away as though afraid. “Ha, ha!” exclaimed Tim, “Hi 3 Tittle frens gone to tell him Tim cooked de beef ready; now de shark won’t be long.” Tim was well up in shark-fishing, as heTiad seen, many caught; and as he saw the arrival of the pilot-fish, tnat almost invariably accompany the shark, he was not wrong in expecting its return. In a shot time the monster issued from directly beneath the raft, where he had ’myst probably been concealed, and, swiming slowly toward the bait, he first smelt it, then, with a quick and sudden turn, he bolted it, together, with j the hook and chain, and dashed off into the deep water. “Ha, ha!” roared Tim, “now’s got him tight! now Tim swaller de j shark!” At the same time he al- f lowed the rope to run from the coil | on deck until about eighty yards had been expended; then, as the fish had halted and turned, be drew in j some slack line, with which *he took j around the turn of the mast; after this he drew in line hand over land until he felt a tug that would have i pulied Tim overboard, had lie been | unprepared, and away dashed the shark once more. This time Tim ; was determined 10 make him work for his line, and, having grasped the the rope between a portion of a sail to prevent it from chafing his hands, he held on with all his might, and merely allowed it to slip through his grasp«as he felt himself compelled. The fish was not many feet shorter than the raft, and as he ran out the < entire length of line that Tim had " fastened to the mast; he now dragged the raft along in .whatever direction he chose to take As it was perfect- | ly calm. Ned left the helm and came to Tim’s assistance, and the two strong lads of sixteen gave the shark

some trouble as they hauled on tup line with all their; might. At times they were obliged to let the-fish ruu, until once more it had regained the full length 6f the rope, but as the raft acted as a buoy against which the shark had to pull, it became exhausted, and the united strength of Ned and Tim at length prevailed. For about half an hour the struggle had continued, when, having hauled in the greater portion of the line, the shark was seen within ten yards of the raft; it still persisted in ’ keeping in the depths, but as the, two lads were equally determined thdt it should come to the sur-; face, they hauled away wit'fi*hucb vigor that by degrees the immense creature was secured by a short rope, and it lashed about in the rage of its capture within a few feet of the raft. Ned now prepared a bow line, which he he threw over the shark, andslipping it cleverly over the tail, he drew the noose tight and fastened the line-to the stern of the raft. “Now. Tim give me a musket,” I’ll finish him off.” 111 an instant Tim'handed the musket and Ned went to the center of the raft to obtain as close a shot as possible at the nape of the peek, if we may so describe that portion of a shark where the first vertebra of the spine is connected with the head. Taking a steady shot at a moment when the fish was quiet, Ned fired and the shark gave a convulsive shudder and then stiffened like a log of timber as every muscle strained in the pangs of death; the ball had divided the spine at its junction with the brain.

GRAIN STOLEN IN TRANSIT.

Thieves Make Use of Augers to Tap a the Laden Cars-. Chicago News. “I could afford to give a great many dollars to charitable institutions each year if I had tho grain that is stolen while in transit in the United States,” remarked Mr. Perrin Clark, a grain operator from Fargo, N. Dak., at the Leland Hotel, as he read a communication from a farmer in South Dakota, who told how he had shipped 1,500 bushels net of grain and by the time it had reached Buffalo and the exorbitant warehouse tolls had been paid to the combine the grain netted him about $225. “Aside from the heavy warehouse drain and storage charges and the natural and allowable shrinkages, that grain, I dare say, lost many bushels by theft,” continued the Fargo nian. “One of the most ingenious, and at the same time hardest to detect plans of stealing ,graiq from cars in transit is the boring Glreat numbers of coni-. plaints are daily received at terminal points aJjput.thea’avagqs of ‘bar r G i S. “How is the boring process performed?” “You know it is almost impossible to mQyelLc&r of-wheat fromaWest- T ern point to an Eastern mart and keep the car going continuous!v. one road’s yard tp auother and very often when a congestion occurs it frequently remains for hours on a lonely sidetrack. There is where the borer getg his opportunity. “Ais it is impossible to house ill a great city contiguously for a night, so it,is impracticable for a railroad company to watch ea.-h car on a side track. The borer is generally a poor fellow who lives near the track and who keeps poultry and perhaps milch cows. To sneak up to a freight train, glide beneath a car, bore an inch hole in the floor and fill several bagSj from the. downpouring stream of grain is a safe task. Railroad men might pass' and repass without observing the ‘borer,’ who might easily conceal himself behind a truck. Should a mau attempt to break a seal and force open a door, the chances are that he would be detected. The boring process is safer. “The depredations of these - borers are becoming so alarming that the railroad companies have in many cases doubled their force of watchmen. Strenuous efforts are put forth to capture these marauders and make examples of them. The shippers would not kick so hard if the borers would content themselves with taking a bag or two of grain from each ear, but when they drill into a load, fill a few bags and leave without plugging up the auger hole the grain leaks out and is scattered along the track for miles. With an inch hole in the floor one can approximate the leakage from a 30,000 pound load. It would be enormous on a trip of 100 miles. Careful car repairers are detailed to watch for these leaky cars, end by this species of precaution the poor shipper is often saved many a dollar. Eortune often comes to the rescue xvhen the car's cargo happens to be oats or corn, as the grain is apt to stop up and thereby stop the leakage. Between this evil dnd the octopus that controls the storage of grain at Buffalo,* the law regarding eleva tpr rates and transactions seems to be violated without fear, the poor, grain shipper is kept guessing as to where his profits are coming from.”
