BY our informant, was characteristic Of the
man. As the Hague was sailing one
pleasant day, under easy canvass the wind
light, the sea smooth, sail was deserted
when Manly ordered d chase. As the frls
gate reared the stranger, she appeared to
be a merchantmen Of the largest class, with
all her sails set, English colors flying; and
a most beautiful sight she was! and it was
noticed that she did not appear tosfear the
approach Of an enemy The Hague soon
spoke her, but her answer was not distinct
1y heard Manly seized the trumpet and
roared in his terrible voice
"Strikeyour colors, and come under my
leep aPeacew was the significant reply.

The explanation Of the security felt by
the merchantmen was the fact that it had

! DIsAPPoINrED cUPIDITY.-Dr Te.
hudi, IN Ihis travels IN Peru, relates the fol-
lowing Interesting a. tsssCI0Ie,S-
The Salctdo NINE, in tho provtllcse .nf
Puno, is celebrated for the tragical end OF
its dscoverer. Don Jose Salcedo, poor
Spaniard, was il love with an Indian girl,
whose mother promised to show him a
silver vein OF uncommon richness " he
-wUuTu marry Ilcr daughter. he dlo SO,
aud worked taev.in gi'h great success.
After time, tie fame q biS wealth reused
the envy ~ Of the Coade de LemoS, then
viceroy OF Peru. BY his generosity and
benevoIence, Sacedo had made himself
very popular with the IndianS and this
served the viceroy as pretext TO accuse
him Of high treason, on the ground oil ms
stirring Up the population against the
| Spanish government Salcedo was ImpEl-
soned and sentenced TO death. While IN
his dungeon he besought Connt Lemos TO
send the papers relatingto his trial TO the
supreme tribunal al Madrid, and TO allow
him to make an appeal TO the kings mercy:
Ifthis request were granted, he promised
10 nav daily tribute Off bar Of silver,
from the time Of the ships sailing from
| Calao to that Of It's return. 10 those days
the voyage from Callao 70 Spain and back
occupied from twelve TO fifteen months.
This may give an idea OF the wealth OF
| Salcedo and his mine. The vicerog re-
fused the condition, hung up Salcedo 90
MAY. 1922 and set out for the mines.
But his injustice and cruelty were doomed
10 disappoinimen. While Saiceco prepar'
ed for death, his motHerfin-law and her
friends and relations betook themselves 70
| tine mine, desiroyedthe works, filled 4 win
wafer. and closed the entrance so skhllnlly
that il was impossible to discover It. They
then dispersed in various directions, ana
neither promises nor torttnes could lndncs
those who were afterwards captured q
reveal the position Of the nlne. TO lhl'
