THE aRAPpLE WIZ THE CABLE.

Captain Anderson, of the Great Eds,erR- nov
Sir James AndeIson-publishes in the London
Times o rraceiul acknowledgement of the assist
ance he has received in nthe Gable Expeditions
from the naval officers who were assigned to
duty with him. He especially names Captains
Hall, Commerill, Eddington and Harris Com
mandeTs ProWse and Bait, and Statf Commander
Moriarty, and then gives this "Reminiscences
''1 shall but DO scant justice to Commanders
Prowse and Bait, II. N, and Captains Eddngton
and Harris, mercantile marine of the MedlDdy,
and Albany, If / recall the three weeks spent
upon the graphing ground where we we're
often separated by fog, gale, or darkness; yet
whenever day dawned, or the fog cleared, there
the squadron we're to be seen converging from
different points towards the Mark Buoy, small
spot looking no bigger than mans hat upon
the surface of the ocean. Unless all had con-
cent1ated their minds, and watched their ships
and compssses night and day, no such beautiful
illustration of nautical science could have been
possible. The vessels OF the squadron keeping
always together, and commanded by men who
knew the importance of keeping close enough
to begin work whenever it was possible, and
yet to avoid collision in fog, was of the greatest
importance, and we owe much to that invalu-
able system of signalling by night and day in
vented by Captain COlomb, r. N, which enabled
us even in dark nights, when two or three miles
apart,to communicate, or ascertain anything we
desiled.D

AN OLD HAND.

Blue-yeined and wrinkled, knuckly and brown,
This good old hand is clasping mine;
! bend above it, and looking down,
study its aspect, line by line.
This hand has clasped a thousand hands
That long have known no answering thrill;
Some have mouldered in foreign lands
Some in the graveyard on the NIL
Clasped mothers hand, in the day
When it was little and soft and white
Mother who kissed 1t, and went away,
To est iii the waking in Gods good light.
CIasped lovers hand, years agone,
Who sailed away and l"ft her in tears;
Under Sahara's torrid sun,
Its bones have whitened years and years.
Clasped the hand of good man true,
Who held It softly and fell asleep,
And woke no more, and never knew
How long that impress this would keep.
Clasped so many, so many l-so few
That still respond to the living WILL
Or can answer this pressure 80 kind and true !
SO many that lie unmoyed and still
Clasped, az last, this hand my own;
And mine viii moulder, too, In turn.
Win any clasp it when am gone?
In vain study this hand 10 learn!

they have been on business and pleasure

They had a most delightful time at Mays
Head, where, at the Alexina house, the Pro-

make the hours pass pleasantly. A ball every
