TUE STARTING EMIGRANT SHIP.—WeII, there I
was, once more on the deck of this very fast-sailing, clipper-
built, copper-fastened, passenger ship, bound to the gold
reg;ons, by the advertieement in the These—but, I should
have thought, ailing to Botany Bay, by the dismal misery
written on the faces of those on deck ! Transportation for
life, with stose-breaking in heavy chains, appeared
tinctly vWble is their countenances. Bose were trying to
look unconcerned, and even rather jolly, as if they knew
all about it, and it was • mere nothing to them ; others
I got up a little careen whistling, and put questions to the
pilot in an imitative gruff voice ; some reeled and staggered
from the hatchway to the stoppers like drunken men,
while others held on with a gripe of despair by the spare
anchor under the long boat, as if expecting the ship to
founder, and they meant to make a life-buoy of that. None
were actually ill, but there was, scattered about, every stage
of incipient sea sickness. I made my way to the mats-hatch
land began to descend the ladder. "On deck there !" triad
a voice below, that seemed to come up from the farthest
I corner of a very deep auk. "Ay ah!" growled the sailor
addressed, who was busily gamed in some mysterious ope-
ration with the long boat. " Where have you stowed your
patent ventilators ?" inquired the voice from the cask ;
" we're choking down here." " Oh," rejoined the tar, as
be winked at the cook's mate, " Neptune will bring them
aboard when be visits us at the Line." The complaint was
indeed well founded, as I felt on descending into the regions
beim, where I found the sun with the casky voice. The
euespiaisant was • talelleriged penes • tailor or shoe-
maker, pestimm m a naval character according to
the sae appttowi...hiss at the Surrey Theatre. It
tech me gems 'Wastes before I could distinguish the
lights and shades of the living panorama moving in that
long, half abeense vault of a place. How changed since I
saw it in the inks. The uproar, the crowd, the handing
&boat of * and clothing, the diva indistinct light
fr. m the fadant fore-hatch, gave it the appearance of
Rag.feir held in the Thames Tunnel for novelty's sake.
There was small room for walking about. I had to clamber
neer all sorts of sharp cornered, hard-edged packages.
Children were crying, women were chattering, men were
grumbling and swearing, and calling down the ugliest
maledictions upon the heads of all the captains, chief mates,
brokers aid shipowners in the known world. On the
' whole broken,
was confusing to a new toner, and not mach
plainer, apparently, to those who had been on board during
the last twenty-four hours. Had the captain poured the
entire contents of the London Dock warehouse doe n an
enormous funcel into that particular 'tween decks, the
chaos could scarcely have been aggravated. The stagger-
ing motion of the vessel set all landsmen's attempts to
labour at complete defiance. As for the women, they were
content to seat themselves ow anything that was nearest
their cabins, and there contemplate the encompeemiag wil-
derness of property.—Dickens s "HoesmAod

WEATHER PROPHECT.—It is a common opinion
in the midland enmities that if the oak comes into leaf
before the ash, a dry summer may be expected, and a wet
summer if the ash is the get. A wet spring is generally, I
believe, favourable to the earlier leaves of the ash, which
are retarded by a dry one. This year the oak was very
much earlier than the ash.—Froas Nam and Queries.'
