Perhaps it wu that all objects at that moment beoamft ftrdeHbly impressed on the memory of the departing voyager perhaps It was that mere Interrupting trivialities always assume ondae magnitude to us when we are waiting for something really Important bat I retain a vivid impreanon of him as be ap-

peletw, yet, as it afterward really triumphant altercation German-speaking deck hands and stewards. He was not a heroic figure. Clad in a worn linen duster, his arms tilled with bags and parcels, be might have been taken for aback man carrying the luggage of bis fare. But it was notioeable that, although be c«lmly persisted in speaking English .and ignoring the voluble German of his Antagonists, he, in some rude fashion, accomplished bitt object without losing bis temper or increasing bis temperature, while bi9 foreign enemy was crimson with rage and perspiring with heat, and that presently, having violated a dozen of the shin's regulations, he look his place by the'side of a very pretty girl, apparently his superior in station, who addressed him as' 'father.' As the great ship swung out into the stream, he was still a central figure on our deck, getting into everybody's way, addressing all with equal familiarity, imperturbable to affront or snub, but always doggedly and consistently adhering to one purpose, however trivial or inadequate to the means employed. 'You're aittln' on suthlH* o' mine, Miss,' he began for tbd third or fourth time to the elegant Miss Montmorris, who was revisiting Europe under high social conditions. 'Jist rise tip while I get it—'twoat take a minlt.' Not only waa that lady forced to rise, but to make necessary the rising and discomposing of the whole Montmorris party who were congregated around her. Tho tnlssing 'sutbin"' was discovered to be a very old and battered newspaper.

?&TSe

It's the Cincinnatty Times,' he explain-

but it'll do to re-fer to. It's got a letter from PayriSjShowin' the prices o' them thar hotels aud rist'rauts, and I allowed to my darter we might want it on tbe other side. Tbar's one or two French names thar that rather gits me—mebbe your eyes is stronger,' but here the entire Montmorris party rustled away, leaving him with the paper in one hand —tbe of,her pointing at the paragraph. Not|at all discomfit t»-d,ti» glanced at the vacant bench, took pM»»s-»irii of it with his hat, duster and umbrella, then disappeared,'and presently appeared again with his daughter,a lank-looking young man, and an angular elderly fekntUe, and so^MfuJaced (be Mon^morriaee.

When w&wera fairly at sea he was missed. A pleasing belief that he bad falleu overboard, or had been left be hind, was dissipated by his appearance one morning, with his daughter on one and the elderly female before Inferred to on the other. Tbe Unser Fritz was rolling heavily at tbe time, but with his {u aal awkward pertinacity be insisted upon attempting to wilfe- toward the best part of the deck, as he always did, as if it were a right and a duty. A lurch brought him and bis uncertain freight in contact with the Montmorrisei —there was a momefit of Wild oon fusion, two or three seats were emptied, and be was led away by the steward-, an obviously and obtrusively sick man. But when ne had disappeared below it was notioed that he had sheared two excellent seats for his fendale ioompatitotfcr. Nobody dared to disturb the elcer,, nobody cated'tq disturbtfieyoung^Mwtao it may be here reeordedbad a certain shy reserve which checked aught,but the simplest clvHIties from the' mastiulino pa-wengers.

A few n'Kjs. Ifeter was discovered that he was nol an Inmate of the first, but of the.second cabjn that the elderly female yeta not his wife as popularly supposed, b\it tbe room-mate of his daughter In the first cabin. These facts made his Various intrusion* on the saloon deck the qpore exasperating to the Montmorrlses, yi the l£j£e difficult to deal with. Eventually, however, he had, as usd&l, liltf own Way no plaoe was sacred, or debarred his slouch bat and dnstar.

But Vhar%|i few friendl with me round here el would like W see ye.' He stepped aside and a dosen m«n sf»pested In Indian file from behind the roundhone#, and with a solemnity known only to the Anglo Saxon nature, shook my band deliberately, and th*n

attitudes against the railings. They were honest, well-meaolng oouutrymen of mine, bat I oould not recall a alngle faoe.

There was a dead alienee tbe screw, however, ostentatiously went on: Yon see what I told you.' it said. "This is all vapidity ana trifling. I'm tbe only fellow here with ft purpose. Whis, whiz, whiz chug, ohug, chug!'

I was about to make some remark of a general nature, when I was greatly relieved to observe my companion's friends detach themselves from tbe railings, and with ft alight bofe and another shake of the hand, severely retire* apparently as niuoh relieved as myself. My companion, who had iu the meantime acted aa if be had discharged himself of a duty, said: 'Thar oilers tnust be some one to tend to ihis kind o' thing, or tbar's no sociablenesa. I took a deppytation into the Cap'ns room yesterday to make some proppysitlous, and thar's ft minister of the gospel aboard as ought to be spoke to afore next Sunday, and I reckon it's my dooty, onless,' he added, with deliberate and formal politenesss, 'you'd profer to do it, bein', so to speak, a public, tpan.'

But the public man hastily deprecated any interference with the speaker's functions, and, to change the conversation, remarked that be had heard that there was a party of Cook's tourists on board, and—were not tbe preoedlng gentlemen of the number? But the question caused the speaker to lay aside bis bat, take a comfortable position on deck, against tbe rail, and drawing his knees up under his chin, to begin as follows: 'Speskin' o' Cook, and Cook's tourists, I'm my own Cook. I reckon I oalkilate and know every cent tbat I'll spend twixt Evansville, Injlanny, and Rome and Naples, and every thing 1*11 see.' He paused, and laving him hand familiarly on my knee, s«id: 'Did I ever tell ye how I kem to go abroad?'

As we bsd never spoken together before, it was safe to reply that he had ftot. He rubbed bis bead soitly with his hand, knitted bis iron gray brows, and then said meditatively. 'No! it must hev been tbat head waiter. He sorter favors you in the mustache and gen'ral get up. I guess it was him I spoke to.'

I thought it must have been. •Well, then, this Is the way it kem about. I was sittin', one night, about three months ago, with my darter, Looeze—my wife bein' dead some four year—and I was readln' to her out of the paper about tbe Exposition. She says to me, quiet like—she's a quiet sort o* gal, if you ever notissed her—"I should like to go tbar." I looks at her—It was tbe first time sense ber mother died that that gai had ever asked for anything, or had, so to speak, a wish. It wasn't her way. She took everything ez it kem, and, durn my skin of I ever codld tell whether she ever wanted it to kem In any other wav. I never told ye this afore, did I?' 'No,' I said, hastily, 'go on.'

He looked at me cunningly a moment. 'Kan't do it? I've done it 1% 'Done It?' -J Wall, about the same,I reckon. TVe flggered it outK Figged don't lie. I altit no Cook'^ tourist^ I can see Cook And give him pints. I tell you I've figgered it out to a cent, and I've money tq, spare. Of course I don't reokcm to travel with Loo.' Shell go first, class. But I'll be near ber if it's ii^thB steerage of a ship, or in the bag gaga car of a railroad. I doo't need much i| the way of grub or clothes, and now and then I kin pick op a job.

He felt of bis knees for a rtioment, and then drew a long breath. 'Perhaps,' be began, deHtwrau-iy, 'ye don't know tbat I'm a poor man.

I parried tbat somewhat direct question by another: 'But the twelve dollars! —how did you increase that?' 'I raised it to two hundred and fifty dollars. I got odd jobs o' work here and there, over-time—I'm a machinist. 1 used to keep this here overwork from Loo-*sayin' I had to see men in the evenin' to get pints about Europe--and that—and getting a little uioney raised on my life Insurance, I shoved ber «Uirough.

The evident enjoyment that he took in this, and tbe quiet Ignori thing of amoral quality

of any

tbem to ft stranger's ear, again upset all my theories. I may say here, that it is one of tbe evidences of original character, tbat it la apt to baffle all prognoala from a mere observer's standpoint. But I recalled it some months after.

We parted in England, It is not aeoMsary in this brier sbroniole, to repeat the various stories of'Unele Joshua,1 as tbe younger and more friviloua of our passengers called bim, nor that two thirds ot the stories repeated were ottered at variance with my estimate of tbe character of the man, although I may add that was also doubtful of the ac curacy of my own eatimate. But one quality was always dominant—bis re* slstless dogged pertinacity and calm imperturbability 'He asked Miss Monttuorrie if ahe "minded" singln' a little in tbe second cabin to liven it up, and added aa an inducement tbat tbey didn't know good music from bad,' said Jack Walker to tne, 'And when be mended tbe broken lock of my trunk, he abtholntely proffthed to me to atbk Coutbln Grace if thee didn't want a "koorler" to travel .with ber to "do meobanica," provided tbee would take obarge of that dreadfully deaf and dumb daughter ot bia.

I am afraid he is not, although he was good enough afterward to establish one or two of my theories regarding him. I was enabled to assist him once in an altercation he bad with a cabman regarding the fare of his daughter, tbe cabman retaining a distinct impression thst the father bad also ridden In some obsoure way in or upon the same cabas he undoubtedly had. I beard tbat be bad forced his way into a certain great house in England, and that be was Ignocninlously rejected, but I also heard that ample apologies bad been made to a oertaln quiet, modest daughter of bis who was without on tbe lawn, and that also a certain Personage, whom I ap proach, even jtp this vague way, with a capital letter, bad graciously taken a fancy to the poor child, and had invited ber to a reception.

But tbis ia only heresay evidence. So also is the story which met me in Paris, tbat be had been up with his daughter in tbe captive balloon, and tbat at an elevation of several thousand feet from the earth, he }ad made some remarks upon the attaobing cable and tbe drum on which the cable revolved, which not «only excited the interest of tbe passengers, but attracted the attention of the authorltles.8Q tbat be was not only given a gratuitous ascent afterwards but, I am told, offered a gratuity. But I shall restrict this narrative to the few facts of which I was perfectly cognizant in the career of this remarkable person.

I was at a certain entertainment given in Paris by the heirs, executors and assignees of an admirable man, long since gathered to bis fathers in Pere la Chaise, but whose Shakespeare like bust still looks calmly and benevolently dotfn oh the riotous revelry of absurd wickedness of which he was, when living, the patron stllnt. The entertainment was of etich character that, while thjB, performers were chiefly women, a majority of the spectators were men. Tbe few exceptions,were foreigners, and among them I quickly, recognized my fair fellow-countrywomen, the MontmorrlBes. 'Don't: tbay that you've theen UB here,'said the youngest Miss Montmorris, 'for. ith only alark. Itb awfully family! And that friend of youith from Injianny ith here with Mth daughter.'

It did not take me long to find my friend Uncle Joshua's serious, practical, and unsympathetic face in the front row of tables and benches". But beside him, to my utter consternation, was bissby modest daughter. In another moment I Was at hie side. really think—I am afraid—I began is a whisper, 'that Vdu have made a mistake. I don't think yott can be a#are-of the character of this place. Your, daughter ,'Kem here .with

Rochefort, from the Orangerye, skipped out in the quadrille immediately beforeius, caught berllght skirts in #eitberjband, ana executions pas thar lifted 1&9 hat from the eyes of tntne of tbe front spectators, and pulled it down over tbe eyes of others.
