4 Short Story By Dickens Dickens
tells the following story of an American
sea captain:
On bis last voyage home the captain
had on board a young lady of remarka-
BILE personal attractions-a phrase l use
as one being entirely new and one you
never meet with in the newspapers. This
young lady was beloved intensely by
five young gentlemen, passengers, and in
rum she was in love with them all very
ardently but without any particular pre-
ference of either. Not knowing how to
make up her determination in this di-
lcmma, she consulted my friend the cap
tain. The captain being a man of an
original turn of mind, says 10 the young
lady Jump overheard, and marry the
man who jumps after YOU" The young
lady, struck with the idea, and being nat
urally fond of bathing, especially in
warm weather, as it then was, took the
advice of the captain, who had a boat
ready manned in case of accident. Ac-
cordingly next morning the five lovers
being on deck, an looking very devoted
ly at the young lady, she plunged into
sea head foremost. Four of the lovers
Immediately jumped in after her. When
the young lady and her four lovers were
got out again, she says to the captain.
"What am / to do with them they are SO
wet?" Says the captain, "take the dry
one?' And the young lady did, and
married him.

An editor in indicating the private
character of friend who had been nailed
for the crime Of sheep stealing, thus eu-
logzes him: eve have known Mr. Thomas
for twelve years. Our acquaintance com
menced with the great equinoxial storm
which blew down our grandfather's barn.
At that tine he was a young man in the
prime of life, and we think, raised the
best marrow-fat peas we ever eat. He
was good mathematician, kind to the
poor, and troubled with the fits. In all
the relations Of husband, father, uncle and
trustee of common lands, he has followed
the direct standard of duty. Mr. Thom-
as is, at this time, just 43 years of age,
slightly marked with the small -pox, an
cstimable citizen, church member, and
man of known integrity for ten years,
And as to sheep stealing; that he would
have done it if he could get an opportuni-
ty, is without the least foundation in
point of fact. Mr.. Thomas could have
stolen our lead pencil several times, and
he didn't do it.
