"a SHARK :"

had heard and read so many marvellous
stories about the %rapacity of the shark, thai,
| felt somewhat DESTROYS of an opportunity
OF Judging of The truth Of the yarns with which
sailors entertained us gaping landsmen.
My curiosity was not long unqualified. We
were within view of the coas, of Madauas-
car, when it became necessary TO take in
water TO fill empty casks. While a Portu-
glcse scamen was employed IN this duty, he
unfortunately overwhelmed himself and fell
overheard. The sea being tolcrabIy calm,
and the man an excellent swimmer, no dam
ger was apprehcnd on his account. The frs,
mate and four Of tilc crew prepared to de-
scend to his assistance in the captains gig,
which hung %astcrn; but, owing y the hurry
OF the moment, the boat was carGlessly low
ored by the run, and the whole party were
immersed. No time was Of course lost in
getting ont another boat, but before it could
be lowered, the man in the torc,op shouted
putt shark a shark make haste men,
for your lives !" A general rush was in
stanlIy made TO the sides aud bow of the
vessel, which, by this time, had been pat
about and the Spars and rigging became al
'iool wv hlNlOllN SDfilitOIS. ~
scene Of fearful interest presented itself to
our view, and almost every mans cheek be-
came blanched with horror. Within about
twenty feet of the first mate. who was SWIM
ming towards the vessel utterly unconscious
of the proximity of this dangerous ~nriehbor,
wasan enormous shark, whose extended laws
were already prepared to cngnif his unsus-
p%cciing victim. On seeing us point at some
object behind him, (for hear he could not "A,

became paralyzed with terror. The monster

an ;e and picked him up. Cheated of hi,
prey, the shark made for another of the
struggling men and succeeded in laying hole
of a poor fellow named Andrews, who coull
not swim, and who was supporting himsel
on a ~lencoop that had Just been thrown ovcl
board to him. An imploring look and an az,
onlzing scream, that went to the heart of ev,
cry one present, told us all was over with the
unfortunate man: and the next minute the
calm and mirror-lik surface ofthe water wa,
crimsoned with blood. The remainder o
the party reached the boat in safety, but tn,
fate of ther companion, and the narrownes,
of their own escape, had such an effect upoI

AN AFFECTING INCIDENT.
The following touching incident is from

The following touching incident is from
the New Mirror.
AN eminent clergyman one evening be-
came the subject of conversation, and a won
der was expressed that he was mover marri-
ed. That wondcr,' said Miss Potter, { was
once expressed TO the reverend gentleman
himself in my hearing, and he told me a sto-
ry in answer which | will tell you, and per-
haps, slight as it may seem, it is the history
of other hearts as sensitive and as delicate as
his own. Soon after his ordination he
preached once every Sabbath for a clergy
man in a small village not twenty miles from
London.
Among his auditors, from Sunday to Sun
day, he observed "A young lady, who always
occupied a certain seat, and whose close at
,ention began inscnsibly TO grow TO him an
object of thought and pleasure.-She left the
church as soon as the service was over, and
it so Glanced that he went on for a year with
ont knowing her name !; but his sermon was
not written without many a thought how she
would approve it, nor preached with salisfac-
ton unless he read appreciation in her face.
Gradually he came to think of her at other
times than when writing sermons, and to
wish TO see her on other days than Sunday;
but the weeks slipped on, and though he fan
cied that she grew palcr and thinner, he new
er mustered resolution enough to ask her
name or seek to speak with her. BY those
silent steps, however, love had worked into
his heart, and he made up his mind TO seek
her acquaintance and marry her if possible,
when one day he was sen, for to minister at
IA funeral.
The face Of the corpse was the same tina,
had looked up to HIM Sunday after Sunday,
ill he learned to make it IA part of his rcli-
gioO and his life. He was unable to perform
the service, and another clergyman oiliciated
and after she was buried, her father took
him aside and apologized for giving him pain,
but he could not resist the impulse to tell
him that his daughter had mentioned his
name with her last breath, and he was afraid
"A concealed affection for him had hurried her
to the grave. Since that, said the clergy
man in question, my heart has been dead
within me, and | look forward only to the
time when | shall speak to her in Heaven.

THE REV. JAMES CAUGHEY.

This rev. gentleman, who, for the last six
months, has been preaching almost daily in
the Wesleyan Methodist CImpcIS in this town,
has at length concluded his Iabors here, and
we understand leaves Hall to-day on a vlsil
to Huddershrlj.
As during his stay here the greatest scnsa-
ton has hceN created anIong the religious
portion Of the inIabitants-cspccialIy among
the Methodist; and notwithstanding the
strong preiuIlccs exhibited in some quar-
tiers against lim-ic has manifcstly obtained
the confidence and esteem Of great numbers
of our towns-proplr, We feel assured that a
slight notice Of his visit will not be unaccep.-
able to many Of our readers.
The Rev. James Caughcy is a native Of
Ireland, bat in early life emigratcd to Amc-
RIGA, where, at the age Of seventeen, he be-
came religiou,ly Impressed, and, after due
preparation, he was ordained first a dean
and then an elder Of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church Of the United States. In the au-
tumn of 1910 he visited Canada, and on the
19lI JuIy, 1871, he embarked at Halifax on
board the steamer Britannia, which carried
him safely TO this country in the unusually
short space Of ten days. After a fow days
STAY at Liverpool he went 10 Manchester,
where tho Methodist Conference was sitting,
and where he made the acquaintancc--among
o,hers-of the Rev. VIM. Lord, at that time
located in Hull, who strongly invited him to
this town. Mr.. CaugIay, however, had then
determined on visiting Ireland, and accord
inciv proceeded to Dublin, where he landed
early in August. ln+his city he made many
friends, and remained there ill the 9Th Jan
uarv, 1912, when he went TO Limerick.-
After about two months stay he lelt Lime
rick for Cork, where he remained to end of
july. Mr.. CaugIicv then visited Bandora a
short time, after which he came over to Eng
land Liverpool was the first town thit he
visited in this country as a preacher and he
pursued the work Of revival there for fiv~
months. From Liverpool he went to Leeds
in accordance with the pressing invitation Of
the Rev. William Lord then stationed there.
While in Leeds, the Rev. II. Thompson,
Superintendent of the East Circuit in this
town, invited Mr.. Caughcy to visit Hull
Accordingly, after a brlef tour through iIol>
land, Prussia, Germany, France, Swilzrr-
lane, and Belgium, that gentleman, on the
20th October last, arrived here for the first
time. On the 22nd he preached IA sermon

ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS.

" HSHlNOl'-'i juno iC'
The two Houses of Congress CLOSED their sit
tngs by adjournment soon ailer the noon OF yes
lerrlav; and the members of both Houses, before
this paper reaches the hands of even our nearest
readers will have dispersed North, East, South,
and West.
notwithstanding the very short space of time
allotted to the two Houses for business Yesterday,
scarcely exceeding two hours several bills were
passed, and 4 considerable number after being
signed By the presiding officers in presence Of
each House, were approved and signed by the
President of the United States, who attended at
the Capitol for the convenience OF despatching
them.
Among the bills passed yesterday morning was
bill TO extend for five years the pensions TO the
surviving widows OF revolutionary soldiers.
Among those also was bill entitled AN act
for the bcnei, of the stockholders OF certain Banks
of the District OF Columbia" This act does
not extend the charters beyond their present
term, (Which ends on the 18th of next month, J
but il secures the stockholders against loss Of
judgments, &c, which, without some proyi-
sion of the sort, it is supposed would have been
incurred The act recognises the right of the
banks or the stockholders therein, to place their
business in the hands Of trustees; which course
will, we presume, be resorted to before, instead OF
after, irchartcrs run QUIT Nat Iatcligcnccr

Every Democratic paper that now comes to
hand exhibits wonderful change in its tone
The response of the people in every section of
the Union in favor Of Polk and Dallas, the no.
mnecs OF the Baltimore Convention, has given
new life and energy to the press, and the records
of the large and enthusiastic meetings which are
daily;takng place in all the States throughout the
country, inspire them with the assurance that
the Democratic party is destined 10 achieve glo-
rious and triumphant victory in the approaching
campaign. The Democracy were never in better
spirits, or more firmly united than in the present
contest. All is union and harmony, "every thing
for the cause and nothing for men,"
