| mess has begun in good earnest; the bubber
men cutting up in the blubber-room; Others
pitching it on deck; and others forking it over
to the side Ofthe "try works." two men stand
| ing by horse with mincng knife to cleave
the pieces into many parts for the more easy
trying out, as the rind of piece of pork is
cut for roasting; the boat steerers and one
ofthe mates pitching it into kettles, feeding
the fires with the scrnps-bailing the boiling
fluid into copper tanks, from which it is the
duty of another to dip into casks.
The decks present that lively though dirty
spectacle which whaemen love, their faces
all begrimed,a and sooty, aud smeared with oil.
A farmers golden harvest in autumn, is not n
pleasanter sight to him than it is to whaler
to have his decks and bubber-room "blubber

oil flowing, everybody busy and dirty, night
and day. DOnkey-loads of Gillian and Peru

parniso and Lima, or IL stream of Benton's
yellow-boys flowing up the Mississippi, have
no charms for him, like the cutting in hum
dred barrel whale, and turning out oil by the
hogshead.
The whale now taken proves to be cow
whale, about forty five feet long, and twenty
hve feet round; and it will yield between sew
seventy and eighty barrels ofexcelent right
whale oil. This is about the ordinary size
ofthe New Zealand whale, u dwarf in com
parison with that of the northwest, which
sometimes yields, it is said, three hundred
barrels, ordinarily one hundred e. fifty or one
hundred and eighty. Though so huge crea-
lure, very small part of its bulk appears out
OF water, nor do you have so fair u view of
this immense mass oforganized matter, as of
ship afloat in comparison to one on the
stocks. AS is usually the case, the observed
reality of this immense animal hnrdlv cnmes
up 10 the preconceived vague idea oft, still
less to the poetic Imagination of
"That sea-beast
Leviathan, which God of all his works
Created hugest that swim the ocean stream
Him happily slumbering on the Norway foam,
The pilot ofsome small night-founder' d skiff,
Deeming some Island, oft, as seamen tell,
With fixed anchor in his scaly rind
Moors by the side under the lee, while night
Invest the sea, and wished morn delays"
They used to tell some big "fsh stories' in
Millions day, and have no doubt they had
something to do in his mind with the creation

Cheap.

"Give me freedom in everything" said a
man to us few days since. 81 have been n
member ola church for forty years,and up to
this time it has not cost me penny. That's
what call free gospel"
That reminds us of an anecdote of Rev.
Mr. S., a distinguished Methodist preacher,
well known in the West, who was remarka-
bic for his piety and eloquence, as well as for
his occasional eccentricities. He went to his
rest few years since. after having labored
long and faithfully in his masters service.
On one occasion he was preaching with
great fervor on the freeness of the gospel and
around him was an attentive congregation.
with eager eyes turned 10 the preacher, and
drinking every word into their souls. A
mong the rest was an individual who had
been more remarkable for opening his mouth
to say amen, than for opening his purse
Though he never gave money for the sup
port ofthe gospel yet he might be said TO
support the pulpit, for he always stood by it.
He had on this occasion, taken his usual
place near the preachers stand, and was max
ing his.responses with more than usual ami
nation. After a burst of burning eloguence
from the preacher, he clasped his hands, and
cried out in kind of ecstacy, ayes thank
God! ! have been Methodist for twenty five
years, and it hasn't cost me twenty-five cents!'
"God bless your stingy SOUL" was the
preachers emphatic reply.-LouisuiIe Err.

Revolutionary Officers.

The Cincinnati Advertiser gives the fol-
lowing record as to the closing scenes of life
and resting places of some of that gallant
band of officers who figured in our Revolu-
tionary struggle;
Gen. Mercer is usually said to have been
killed at the battle of Princeton, but really
died of an epileptic fit in that neighborhood
n week after that affair. The popular notion
is derived from the fact that he received u
blow on the head from the but end of a mus
ket. in the hands ola British soldier, in full
retreat with his comrades. He was knocked
down and stunned for some time, as the con-
sequence. Mercer was buried in Christ
church, Philadelphia.
Putnam was disabled from active service
in the very middle of the strife, 1879, by Il
paralytic stroke, but survived Jill 1890, being
72 wears ofage. He was buried at Brooklyn
Conn.
Wayne died at Erie, Pa. where he was bu-
ried. At later date the body was transport
ted,ro Chester county, Pa. Although nearly
a quarter of a century had elapsed, the Inca
ments of the deceased hero were distinctly
visible, and the features recognized by per-
sons present of course, the corpse crumbled
to dust onexposure to the atmosphere.
SCHUYLER, who deserves all the credit of
the capture of Bnrgoyne, ofwhich he was de-
priyed by Gen. Gates assuming the command
lust as all the arrangements for the battle had
been made at Saratoga, died at New-Yor
1904.
