Talk WITH AN OLD SAILOR.

j
"oh 1 never use ! BY myself but gen
erally keep some for my men IN rough
Weather But, captain, l don't want
you to set your temperance nag hall mast
| want il to the mast head, against the use
of Il. anv way or any how,-for it's Of no
use at nlI." But you must not tell me
that rum is OF no use on board ship; l
have been jainmed on too many lee
shore and been in too many ugly gales Of
wind to believe rum can do no good
Now let the gale come on, (the men are
tired out perhaps,) and tell them to lay
alof and reel, and they will hang hack,
90 slow and indiferently to work but
call them aft, and say, here boys, take
'stiffner' all round, and then reef, and
YOU will soon see the difference the sail
Is reeEed in halfthe time" DWELL, cap
tain, will admit what you say. and we
will suppose we have in one reef, and the
boys are on deck again watching the
squall as it comes up; we have still rath-
er too much sail for the increasing wind
and we must reefagain. The boys walk
al, and say the starch is all out ofthem,
and what is good once is good twice, and
90 we will give them another raw nip >
and now we are under two reefs and we
have Just got coiled down-when harder
yet, it yet blows harder-reef again the
captain cries. The boys hang back for
more grog; ifgood in two cases it surely
must be in the third so they splice the
main brace and with artificial strength,
by which nature has been over exerted
they put in close reef, and get on deck
You will admit by this time pretty consid.
ably drunk; and you know sailors will
be noisy and disobedient when excited by
liquor.
But the gale increases with renewed
strength, and now we want every man t
be cool and prompt to the word. Tn,
captain is anxious, and it is enough for hi
mind to think what is next to be done
Ills orders are now neglected; the mel
let go when they should hold GA. Tn
mate comes in with his logic and knock
down one or two; all is now in confusion
and uproar. The captain loses his self
possession, and the storm threatens within
and without, while the cry is heard
breakers on the lee bowl Now who j
to be depended upon2 Well, we will d
the best we can, and those who are sobe
behave like men; but it won't do, W
have struck-cut away the masts, and ar
now ashore, bilged-ship and cargo los
What do you say, captain2"

right place. I'm friend to temperance

The QUEEN AND THE QUAKEREss.

In the autumn Of 1918, her late males
ty, Queen Charlotte, visited Bath accom-
panied by the princess Elizabeth. The
waters soon effected such a respite from
pain in the roya! patient, that she propos-
ed an excursion to park of some celebri-
ty in the neighborhood, then the estate Of
a rich widow, belonging to the society OF
Friends. Notice was given ofthe Queen
intention, and a message returned that she
should be welcome Our illustrious trav-
eller had, perhaps, never before held any
personal intercourse with a member Of the
persuasion whose votaries never volunta-
rily paid taxes to "the man George, call
ed king by the vain ones The lady
and gentleman who were to attend the
august visitants, had but feeble ideas Of
the reception to be expected. 1t was sup,
posed that the Quaker would, at least say
thy majesty, thy highness, or madam
The royal carriage arrived at the lodge Of
the park, punctual at the appointed hour.
No preparations appeared to be made, no
hostess or domestic stood ready to greet
the quest The porter's bell was rung
\ he stepped forth deliberately with his
broad brimned beaver on and unbend-
ingly accosted the lord in waiting with
whats thy WILL friend2"
This was almost unanswerable.
Surely" said the nobleman, "your
lady is aware. that her majesty-Go to
your mistress and say the Queens hereP'
No truly" answered theman, need
eth not, have no mistress nor lady; but
friend Rachel Mills expecteth thine; walk
in!"
The Queen and princess were handed
out and walked up the avenue. AT the
door of the house stood the plainly attired
Rachel, who without even courtesy
but with cheerful nod, said, "How's
thee do, friend! am glad to see thee
and thy daughter / wish thee we'll -
Rest and refresh thee and thy people be-
lore l show thee my grounds"
What could be said to such a person
Some condescensions were attempted, i'm
plying that her majesty came, not only to
view the park, but TO testify her esteem
for the society to which mistress Mills
belonged.
Cool and unawed, she answered, " Yea
thou art right there. The Friends are
well thought ofby most folks; but thew
heed not the praise Of the world for the
rest, many strangers crafty their curiosi.
