The spoii. Of a wreeker.

from the Boston fost.
A strange story, worthy Of novelistic
treatment at the hands OF Marryatt,
comes from New Foundland. In Chance
Nook, a secluded nook in that somewhat
secluded island, dwell little company
of fishermen, one of whom, who rejoices
in the name OF Barnacle Bill, has long
been an object Of suspicion on account
Of bis unsociable and hermitlike life.
His hut was situated remote from the
others upon peak overlooking dan
gerous reef called Gillicuddy Breakers
These circumstances combined to faste1
upon Barnacle Bill the suspicion that he
had penchant for wrecking operations,
aud after the recent loss on the reef Of
the schooner Albion, none Of the crew
of which were subsequently discovered
dead or alive, it was determined to search
the aforementioned hut. Accordingly, a
detective was procured, together with the
requisite legal papers, large deputation
made an early call upon Barnacle Bill,
and found that worthy in bed. Inas-
much as he declined TO get up and open
the door for his surprise party, they let
themselves into the house, when an ap.
palling sight met their gaze. Fingers,
wrists and ears, cut and torn from the
bodies of women. evidently to procure
the rings and other jewelry, were strewn
around. Two soileG silk dresses were
folded beside the bodies. In all, there
were nine eorpses, only one of which
has been as yet identified. The inhu-
man wrecker, after being taken into Gus
tody, confessed that he took the bodies
from the wreck of the Albion and con-
yeyed them on fish barrow to his cliff
before dawn. The news has created the
most intense excitement in St. Johns,
where most of the ill-fated sailors re-
sided.

complimented the Prince on being a
good gentleman TO dance with. The
Grand Duke, as he appeared on the
ballroom floor, after divesting himself
Of hat and long cloak revealing his
princely head, and dark, gold studded
uniform, was entirely becoming TO his
high rank. Had any stranger stepped
into the place and been asked to point out
the most distinguished looking man on
the floor he would certainly have selected
the Grand Duke. He was the tallest fig
ure there, and his perfect self-possession
gave him a graceful bearing, and there
seemed to be harmony in every gesture
The next partner of the Prince was Miss
Morse, who danced waltz with him.
The other partners were Miss Blodgett,
Miss Mcdowell, daughter of General
Mcdowell; Miss NJ. v. Shaler, daughter
of General Shaler; and Miss Sullivant,
an Ohio belle, and niece Of General
Mcdowell. From allthat has been seen
Of the Grand Duke Alexis it is evident
he is not "lady's man" While acting
as an escort he is always polite and oc-
casionally gay Bat he never iiirts.
As soon as the ceremony Of dancing is
over-for it is little more than cere-
mony for him--he relieves his partner
Of his company and goes his way; leav-
ing her to 20 hers. II he can steal away
he will walk off alone, get in a back
room, roll a cigarette, and smoke it.
While Alexis attracted everybody's at
tention his brother officers we're improv-
ing the opportunity to put themselves on
good terms with the ladies, in which
they succeeded admirably, being all fine
looking and well educated men. The
ball on the island lasted until five
O clock, and at $50 the guests were all
landed at the Battery, where their carri-
ages we're in waiting g1li1 Vit ,G
