my harpoon, which was handed over to
him, and in few seconds there was a
splashing in tho water along side, a
shouting a board the Swan, and then
our ghost was lying on her forward
guards
Work was temporarily suspended, so
that all hands might see what form the
spirit had taken. There lay an immense
Jew, or drum-fsh, well-known denizen
Of southern water, which receives its
name from the hollow, drum-like sound
it makes when seeking for its food.
This specimen was of unusual size, being
nearly six feet long, and weighing over
six hundred pounds. Having taken on
board about two hundred pounds weight
of his ghost-ship as an addition to our
sea.stock of provisions, we tripped our
anchor, made sail, and were soon out in
the Gulf of Mexico, making the best of
our way toward the Gulf of st Lawrence,
to take cargo of deals for London.
Notwithstanding the capture of the
drum-f fish, and the rational solution of
the mystery, some of the crew were
loath to abandon the delusion and un-

cumstanced that he can do neither, it is
no reason that he should go without
fruit or COWS.
Many poor farmer delays putting
out an orchard for the want OF money
to purchase trees, till he gets at an age
that he thinks the trees will never yield
their fruit to him. The surest way for
poor farmer to make sure of an orchard
is to commence to get one by the labor
of his own hands. In this way he can
have an orchard of bearing trees, cider
to drink, apples to cat and to sell long
before he became forehanded enough to
spare the money all at once to buy the
trees to plant an orchard. The people
who went from the old towns in the VI
cinity of Boston to colonize the more
northern states of New England "were
wiser in their generation" as far as the
planting of apple trees is concerned,
than were the settlers of most parts OF
the West. They took a bag of apple
seeds with them wherever they went to
settle. Every man became his own
nurseryman, partly from force Of circum-
stances and partly from force OF poverty.
Apple trees took the place of forest trees
before the stumps of the former had
rotted away.-Prarie Farmer.

A TrustY Boy.

A few years ago, says a New York
paper, large drug firm in this city adj
vertised for boy. Next day the store
was thronged with applicants, and
among them came queer looking little
fellow, accompanied by his aunt, in lieu
of faithless parents, by whom he had
been abandoned.
Looking a. this little waif, the mer-
chant in the store promptly said, Cant
take him places all full besides he is
too small" 81 know he is SMALL" said
the woman, but he is willing and faith
full" There was q twinkle in the boys
eyes which made the merchant think
again. A partner in the firm volun-
teered to remark that "he did not see
what they wanted of such a boy-he
wasn't bigger than a pint of cider
But after consultation the boy was set
to work.
A few days later, call was made on
the boys in the store for some one to
stay all night. The prompt response of
the little fellow contrasted we'll with the
reluctance of the others. In the mid
die Of the night, the merchant looked
in to see if all was right in the store,
and presently discovered his youthful
protege. busy scissoring labels. What
are you doing?n said he " did not
tell you to work nights" - know you
did not tell mo so, but | thought
might as we'll be doing something" In
the morning the cashier got orders to
double that boys wages, for he is
willing"
Only a few weeks elapsed before a
show of wild beasts passed through the
streets, and very naturally all hands in
the store rushed to witness the specta-
Gle. A thief saw his opportunity and
entered in a rear door to seize some
thing, but in twinkling found himself
firmly clutched by the diminutive clerk
aforesaid, and after a struggle, was CAP
tured. Not only was robbery prevented,
but valuable articles taken from other
stores were recovered. When asked by
the merchant why be stayed behind to
watch when all others quit their work,
the reply was. :" You told me never to
leave the store when others were absent,
and thought I'd stay" Orders were
Immediately given once more, " Double
that boys wages he is willing and
faithful" In 1869, that boy was receiv-
ing salary of $1,000, and in 1870 was
to become partner in the establish
ment.

Little Boy Blue.
BY AeBY SAGE RICHARDSON.


Under the hay stack. little Boy Blue
Sleeps with his head on his arm,
While voices Of men and voices of maids
Are calling him over the farm.
Sheep in the meadows are running wild,
Where poisonous heritage grows.
Leaving white tufts of downy fleece
On the thorns of the sweet wild rose.
Out in the fields where the silken corn
Its plumed head mods and bows,
Where golden pumpkins ripen below,
Trample the white faced cows.
But no loud blast on the shining horn
Calls back the straying sheep.
And the cows may wander in hay or corn
While their keeper lies fast asleep.
His roguish eyes are tightly shut,
His dimples are all at rest;
The chubby hand, tucked under his head,
By one rosy cheek Is pressed.
Waken him? No. Let down the bars
And gather the truant sheep.
Open the barnyard and drive in the cows,
But let the little boy sleep.
For year after year we can shear the fleece,
And corn can always be sOwn;
But the sleep that visits little Boy Blue
Will not come when the years have flown.

Because they seem a wand of magic.

Had nightly pleased the eager thousands
With scenes OF mimic mirth and strife.

Man looketh at the outward seeming,
But God alone can judge the heart!
And that cold form, on earth rejected.

Who fails in Christian deeds oflove.
And many a soul now sorely tempted,
With sense of sin and shame opprest,

With Gods forgiving love be blest

THE manufacture of beet sugar, which
about year ago was started at Sacra-
mento, Cal, has just been suspended, in
consequence, it is said, of the want of
practical knowledge on the part of the
superintendent. Although the antici-
pations as to the profit to be derived
from this manufacture were very san.
guine, yet the conviction now seems to
have been arrived at that the business
cannot be made to yield any return. A
minute statement published in the Cali
fornia journals as to the expenses of
manufacture shows that, supposing the
beets to yield twelve per cent. of sugar,
the product Of three thousand tons of
beets would sell for S46,S0O, while the
cost of manufacturing that quantity
would amout to $4,000, so that the loss
on the business would be $4,000 And
this loss is suffered while working for
sixty days an establishment having q
capacity to manufacture fifty tons day.
