IFF WINDMILL ISLAND.

/The lustrous light of a June moon je ovur Philadelphia one night in the 7fcar 1779. The rammer air was full of odor of ro?en «tod th* r.treota were reral in. verrtnn*. but sounds of fjiitrtial iumw.4fa&l\n$ dowrn from Chest* nut street b&m^ht bomt? to every heart thi- cI:ilHe £rt^mtaunse that-war was kin* ia thV- vonntn* and that the issue wt in tUcbr.kuiec. Far.iway from |W din. o»t in the open fialds west of !he Pine HtnfA "Prusbyterlan church, wo» a ffejttlurnent in which but little hep) \viis Wing paid to the uproar. The ony existi:v» in the tiny cabins huddled together had nothing in common with tin- Continental armias except a :»p, r.n n-1 untiiig hatred of the English.

Thiii evening the strangers gathered in ttlo hnnfn and conversed in qniet, unarm Imr jit-conta. the rayn maoking their ong pij-«. and the women knitting in a slow, measured fashion. In French patois thoy told the children stories of their ever to Ik? remembered land fur in the north, the villages and 'firm's, and the cruelty of the British in |k •Kting from them their beloved Acadia, ,-ning thom adrift in a strange county wp t"nt'-d from their kindred and fvury honu- tie. After all the years

Which had o!: ps«l ein'x* their coming to thf City of Penn. the Acadiana were simply Kojottr.iers, not citizens. Fow of thnm had any acquaintance with the inhabitant!) of the city, and but a small number could speak the English language. The industrious Quakers did /jot take kindly to the indolent habits of 'the refugees, hence it is not to be wondered at that the Acridians had no intercourse with their neighbors, and strenuously sought to deter their children from making connection* outside of their own people.

The young ar? apt to lw perverse, however, and the Franch blood in their veins waa too volatile to bo easily controlled. In one of the cabins had a maiden gone to aud fro through the long hours of the day now drawing to a close busied with the house work, but with heart beating high, for she had heard that the troops wero oxpectod to arrive in the city during the day. and thoughts of her brave Willie, with hi* blue and buff unifonn and three comorod hat, had driven all other subject}! from her mind. Little her parents guessed of her secret, and, although they noticed her preoccupied manner, they did not attribute it to the proper cause.

Now that dusk had como she impatiently awaited the time when they should take their nmial stroll to neighbor JMinot'H doorstop for the accustomed chat When at length the old folks were safely away. «he tie 1 alight ahawl over her head and «jhh! along the path to Pine street, then down that thoroughfare to Third street, carefully avoiding the open •door of St Peter's, through which «tr«Kvmed flood of light. In Third strict who reduced her puce, and alowly walking under the trees she finally jffached 8t. Joa-jph'8 church, looming up fin the fust gathering darkness beside the humble dwelling* of the Quakar poor.

She knew she had started too early to meet her lover, 80 sho entered the sacred ediQce. and after spending a few minutes in prayer, or rather in silence, for her fooling# were too tumultuous to bo calmed, again sought tho open air.

Third street was deserted, but a square below tho pavements were crowded. News had eomo of ft battle, and tho vpl«e of the jieople was at fever heat, uouiae cared not for tho news of the war bo long as her lover was safe, and now she waited anxiously at the trysting place. One or two persons hurried past too eager to hear the latest tidings to notice her, A soldier released from his duties came down the street anxious to get home again. She drew back in the mhadow. Soon she heard the stop of ft vigorous man, and peering through the twilight saw the glitter of another uniform. Tho man came closer, and she perceived he was young and stalwart, with a hold. mtscnline face, which, though in a measure attractive, had stamped upon it traces of sensualism and rough living, such as is uoticeable the countenances of soldiers who have Txhmi on along campaign.

AU this the girl noticed by the dim light of the lamp fixed on the watchlxix near by. The stranger was evidently in search of wine one, as he constantly sral anmnd him as he movel forward* it 1ms saw Louis© all doubt vanished, talking directly up to the maiden, he bade her g«xxl evening, calling her by her first name. The girl's conntenanw «*jresset! at once annoyance and snrprisnv Tito cause of the first is easily imagined, but tho manifestation of surprise wit# only exi^lained when slteejacnlate«l in French:

Von here. Jacques? We thought yon had decided to stay in Opelousaa. And why in this uniformf*

The ssldii?r rx^plie^i with a light laugh: "It is l»ard to g^*t rid of a bad penny, you know. I found tho snrroundings of our Mends in the south not suited to *oy taste, and, having a chance to «»t«r the amy, did s-k But I caiao on an ctraud to-night, and that is to carry wnsssag^ from your kvw."

AlUmttgli a smite aeoompittted lilft worfe the rxr-.rv^on of daocpw* ejraa was far from i^ioasawiti bui ib.b L7SEd»© did not isollft*. Sho his «tn toterrss1, "A mtjssaige fiwaWSBiol Wlwtib|08': mean? !.»bfewo-«adadT

"No, no, girl/! tho man rsplied idinoBt roughly, "but th:» fact ig he was to itroctsd to remain with his company. lh does not wish to miss the cuancs cr ^ng your pretty face, however, and c? acsedme to meet and accompany yoa to a place near bis post, where he can steal out for a few minutes and greet yon. His command is stationed at the old barracks on Front street, and, if yon ore willing to go along, I will take you up and back in a boat lying below the dock, which I engaged on my way."

The maiden was greatly perturbed. Without any sense of fear she would have readily gone alone to the encampment, but the reputation of Jacques was not of the best and she hesitated to trust him. It was now past the hour when her lover shonld have come, and as Jacques told a plausible enough story she decided, finally, to accompany him. The two proceeded to the river, where in answfer to a low whistle given by Jacques a like signal was returned, and guided by the sound they reached the side of a boat lying in theshadow of a pile of cord wood. There were two nven in the boat, which struck Louise as rather odd, it being rarely the wherries were manned by more than one person. She took a seat, and Jacques, loosening the painter, sprang into the stern. The rowers bent to their task with a will, and the craft shot out into the bright moonlight.

Instead of turning north, however, Jacques kept the prow headed directly for Windmill Island. Louise noticed this and asked him why the boat was not pointed up the river. He uttered an unintelligible reply about the current, which did not reassure the maiden, and she, though inwardly frightened, insisted in firm tones that the wherry be directed north. Her companion, thinking all occasion for secrecy past, sneeringly replied that he would run the boat to suit himself. Now thoroughly alarmed and seeing the trap into which she had fallen, Louise sprang to her feet and screamed for aid. In those days the river was much used as a highway, and usually the evening air was enlivened by the dip oi countless ourst and the hum of animated conversation. To-night, however, the water was deserted, every one being in the center of the town seeking the latest tidings. No answer came to her cry for help, and before she could again find voice Jacques pulled her down beside him, and. covering her mouth with his disengaged hand, bid the rowers make all speed to the island, whose shadows would effectually hide them.

With a frantic, effort Louise wrested herself loose and scream after scream rang over the water, to be answered this time by a welcome cry from up tho river. The conspirator.) turned their heads in alarm. A hundred yards distant was a light boat with two occupants bearing toward them, and propelled with such force as to very materially lessen tho distance between them before the abductors could realize the Situation, "Row, men, row!" yelled Jacques. "It will bo ball and chain for lifo if we are caught."

Stop!" came from tho pursuers, 'Stop or I fire!" Jacijuos muttered an.oath, and, seizing a musket lying at his feet, took aim and fired at the speaker. No return fire camo from the party in tho r?«cond boat, and they had resolved apparently to delay action until they overtook the wherry, Making an almost superhuman effort, Ahey shot the light skiff alongside the heavier boat, when tho island was not more than ten yards distant. Snatching a pistol from his belt Jacques leveled it at the nearest .occupant of the other boat, but as his finger trembled on the trigger an oar quickly sweeping through the air fell upon his arm and the weapon was tossed into the water, while his right hand fell useless by his side.

The boats by this time had drifted almost to the shores of tho island, and the cowardly boatmen, seeing their leader disabled, and with tho horrors of Walnut Street prison in their minds, abandoned their oars and sprang ashore, followed by the pistol shots of tho second occupant of the skiff, as well as by tho curses of the maimed Jacques, who saw his scheme fail when at the point of success.

Louis© was lying in tho bottom of the wherry senseless, and, seeing further resistance useless, Jacques threw himself into the tide at the same instant the officer, for so his uniform showed him to be, stepped into the boat. The rower of the skiff made strenuous efforts to reach the drowning man, but failed, and the dark waters of the Delaware closed over the abductor, who was unable to swim to the land with his uninjured arm. Meanwhile the officer raised the maiden in his arms, and at the first glance ejaculated: "Heavens, it is Louise!" The rescuer was no other than William Clark, her lover, whose command had indeed been located in tho Liberties as stated by Jacques, and he was on Ms way to meet his sweetheart when the scream of Louise rang over the water.

Jacques' story of Clark having been detailed for special duty was entirely false. Through a letter which had fallen into his hands he had learned of the meeting arranged between Clark and liouise, and having known the Acadian girt for years* he resolved upon the daring plan of abducting and carrying her to New York, of course deserting to the British. Not until Louise revived and told her port of the story could Will understaad her presence in the boat, or until then did he know who was the abductor. ...

Louise reached home before her parents had returned from the Minots", and in the disturbed condition of the city the fight on the river and the sadden disappearance of Jacques created no com* TO OUt,

A stout old craft was the Mediator, too, and on this trip carried an extra large crew—seventy eight men and twelve boys—the most of whom had been more than* one voyage with old Captain Hugh.

For a few days we had been having some very heavy weather, but the gale bad blown itself out till upon this atternoon the sails hung flapping from the vards and the sea iiad run down to a long, low swell, in which the ship rocked heavily. The great, wide waters looked oh, so beautiful, as their undulations turned sloping shield ward the sun, sighing and moaning as

Workshop

7.—A YANKEE TAB.

It's thirty years now, thirty years last November, sinca what I am relating happened.

A good old ship was slowly working her way along tne ridging hills of the Indian ocean toward the harbor of Hong Kong, where she was bound from Baltimore.

mi as

though repentent of tbelr former fury. We were close in on the coast of the Malayan country—too close, in Tact, to suit us, for this particular locality abounded in pirates of the worst description.

The afternoon had drawn nearly to the night and all the sea looked dipped in a rosv glow, as along the western sky a a mist arose through which the sun strove bard to shine but only shed a mellow lustre.

Along the deck the sailors lounged in groups, some fencing, some boxing, while others told tales of other voyages or sang songs. Aft of the cabin sat the captain and tho female portion of his family, for his sons were all members of his

and kept their places forward.

•Twas the

early

dog-watch and every

one was passing this period ot rest, as it generally is aboard a ship—in pursuit of pleasure, as night came'slowly to us, none even dreaming that the morrow's sun would find more than half of us done with life and cruising in the strange and stormless sea of Wide Eternity.

Just before sun down theoaptaln camo forward and said: "Men, I don't like these waters at all, for there are too many rovers here. Some of you take the housings of these guns (of which we carried five pieces, two long 32-pounders forward as boW-chasers and a 24 on each side, with a snivel gun aft) and pass up a few strand of grape for eaoh one. Roll out a good supply of ammunition for small arms and boatswain, you serve out a cutlass and pistol to every man. See that a truss of pikes is ranged inside each pipe rail, that we may be ready in case of attack."

We turned, and by sunset were in pretty good shape. In that latitudo there is but very little of the twilight with which we are familiar, and in five minutes the darkness had come upon us.

Our first mate had just ordered two men out on the knightheads to keep lookout when, as if they had dropped from the clouds, a swarm of Malays came over our starboard rail and made a charge upon us where westood almoststupified with surprise at their suddenness of. ata

They had slipped alongside in their long, narrow war proas, that, while they carry from hfty to ninety men. lie so close to the water's edge, are handled with such dexterity that the only sound they make is a slight ripple as the sharp prow divides the waters And as they are painted the color of the water they wore in that semi-darkness indiscernable at anv distance, even had any one been on lookout, but as all hands had been very busy the surprise was complete.

For a moment we stood still, then, as not half of us had buckled on our arms, each one grasped the weapon handiest him and we closed. For a time that seemed like an hour we held them fairly at bay. Then our heavy cutlasses told against their plight, quivering knisses, that are about as deadly a weapon as my mind can concieve of, and they fell slowly back toward the railing. While we hung there for a few minutes, each party apparently determined to conquer or die iu the siruirnle, our captain rau into the cabin, and buckling on his sword belt, came rushiugon deck. With saber in one hand and pistol in the other he flung himself into the fray.

look at his face, think-

from the work before us. Over his face, that hardened till it looked like steel mask, came a smile that somehow made me think of astray moonbeams striking on armor. His eyes shone like a leapord's aa it crouches for the spring. With a sudden blaae his sword flamed above bis head, then he drove into the mass alone.

As the foe Hawed round u* like a wave, I lost sight of him, for I had all one roan could do to take care of myself.

How long that fierce combat lasted I do not know, but I could hear his blade clash on the Malay steel and rapid heavy fails aa men went down on either side of him before his tiery scrimiter that **»emed alive so fierce ita hiss, while it writhed in thrust and parry, lunge and blow: but now the foe divided and part ran au to take possession of the quarterdock.

beside me. The men behind us had done their uttermost and pushed the snaky hoarders so hard that now those who were left, penned in between those death-dealing cutlasses and the bulwarks, flung themselves into the sea, thus for a time escaping. Our comrade* turned and threw themselves with a hearty cheer into the maelstrom of hard blows that had left but three of our little force upon our feet.

How those Malays did fight! It seemed as though they were determined to capture the ship though'it cost the lives of nine-tenths of their band. True they still outnumbered us, but their ranks -were melting away like frost before a July sun. une of the wretches who stood so close his powder burned me, fired a pistol at my breast. The bullet missed me but struck my gallant shipmate in the arm. He gave a snarl like a' wounded tiger and his white teeth came shut with a snap. If he had been terrible before he was demoniacal now, as in his awful rage he.flung with the wounded arm his empty pistol in the fellow's face, staggering him. With a mighty spring he passed me and his blade sang out with a wrathful tone as he struck. Squarely down upon the skull fell the blow,sinkins through head and neck till the shivared collar-bone*thrust severed points out through the clean cut flesh. Out either way leaned the sides of that divided bead* while the spouting blood turned abroad red arch as the stricken body fell. Again he wheeled and the face gleamed fiercely in the dusk as he bounded like some wrathful lion on the shouting horde. They reeled back before him, for no mortal arm could fence the blows he showered around, and we pressed iplosely on them doing what we might, ml-

Only S short time did they force the fight,"but leaped over the side and crawling into their proas started to pull away. Hut we did not intend to let them off so easily and we rammed a charge of grape shot into each of our bowchasers, and when they were about a hundred feet away, we sent a load into each of them.

I suppose some of them got pretty badly bruised, for a cborus of yells and groans rose outof the darkness as though ••Old Nick" had laid alongside their crafts.

There was no need of firing again, for both their boats were stove and sunk in two or three minutes.

Our first care was for our wounded of course. It was mighty curious there were no wounded Malays—at least I didn't see any. All of them were lying very still. We pitched them overboard, and at sunrise we buried iorty-two of, our own crew. Of those left hardly one but had from two to a dozen wounds, and our captain was a perfect lattice work of cuts, with.here and there an extra piece of decoration where a bullet had left its round, red mark.

It was six months before his son was able for duty, butsou may well believe he was always,the^ idol of that crew.

A l/cssoii In Magic.

A small round box, about an inch and a half in diameter and half an inch deep, is handed to the audience, with the request that they will place some article or articles in it, such as coins, peculiar rings, etc., etc. This being done the box is covered with a handkerchief and given to one of the audience to hold. The performer then stands nt a distance and proceeds to describe minutely the contents, although hidden from his view.

To perform this trick it is necessary to have a second box as near the size and shape of the first as possible. This is sewed in the corner of a handkerchief. Whw^ha first box has been filled the performer "takes it, and while pretending to place it in the handkerchief palms it and gives the second one to be held. He now walks away to take his position at a distance, and while his back is turned to the audience he takes the opportunity of opening tho box and examining its contents. Having fully examined and replaced the articles ho proceeds with his description, which being finished he approaches the person who has the handkerchief, and taking hold of it requests that he will let go the box, at the same time shaking the handkerchief and' letting the first box, which is still conccnlcd in the palm of his hand, fall to the ground. The audience will naturally suppose that the box never left the handkerchief, and when they see the borrowed articles taken from it and returned to tho owners they Will be still further mystified. -, -f

An Op«ning for a Girl.

Mrs. Ewing proved to the Chautauqua society that a family of eight can be abundantly fed with excellently cooked and served meals at $1.75 a week, "Scientifically" trained a girl on leaving school could, if she had the bravery to pocket her pride, enter a private home, take charge of a kitchen, and as a caterer purchase tho supplies, prepare the meals and save enough on the waste, false weights and small measurements to pay a reliable assistant to do the pot scraping, pan scouring, cleaning, paring and the like. The meal cooked and served, she might if she desired leave the house altogether until time for tho next, and she woo Id have no difficulty to get a salary of $100 a month. Her superior intelligence would give her a degree of respect unknown to the modern queen of the range.—Chautauqua Letter*
