A FEMALE NAVIGATOR.
buco-How Frs. Clifford Navigated
the Vessel Home.

There is TIME when women are known simply as
the heipmate of man. and when their duties are
confined To those of o domestic nature, but now
and then Instances are brought before the public
when woman has usurped the place Of man ana by
herself earned knowledge and natural tact takes
position wherein man has become the dependent
creature. There have been good many female
heroines, whose names have become famous IN the
chronicles OF the sea, for deeds OF daring which they
have accomplished in the hour OF trouble.
The latest heroine who has come before the pub
lie Is Mrs. clifford OF Stockton, Maine who has just
brought to port the brig Abbe Clifford after cndur
ing the vcissitudes OF weather. health and climate.
The Abbe Clifford Is brig owned by Clifford, Smith
and others, that left PernambucO on the 9th Of
March, bound for New York, with cargo OF sugar.
Sick and Moth, the steward j T., Fay, o.
recovered, and. after resiine e'' " clean bin
Of health, they started homeward bound. Before
they had been many days at sea the pestence
seaman OF the name OF Gustave johnson, who
eventually succnnbed and was buried on the LIST OF
April. The captain, native of Stockton Me-, OF
tile name OF clifford was then taken sick and died
on the 9Th OF April, and on the 9th OF the same
month, the FIRST officer Allen Smith, OF Steep Falls,
Me-, also fell q victim to the same disease IL
was at this time that tho energy Of woman was
brought to light. for Mrs. Clifford who had also been
coa1ned U her pea ny yeuoW Ievcr on tIe death ol
navigate the ship. Mrs. Clifford Is woman of small
stature, dark hair, pleasing face lit up with pair
OF sparkling eyes, radiant with intelligence and
fire. When the time came that she was called upon
to preserve the lives OF those on board
she was found equal to the task and noby
Clifford was assisted by MI. Hitchborn, ofStockton,
Me-, the second mate, an Intelligent boy, who
quickly learnt from her the rudiments Of nayga-
ton and proved OF invaluable assistance during the
voyage home. They crossed the line on the 9th OF
April and met with favorable weather up to cape
Uatteras, where they fell in with heavy weather.
Here the seamanship OF the second mate was
brought into reqnisition, and, encouraged by the
presence Of his lats,captains wife, who was always
GA deck, they passed through the storm with only
some trining damages.
Tie Abbie clifford arrived Off Staten Island on
Sunday evening, and is st.ll in quarantine owing to
the yellow fever. As soon az the vessel comes up
to a dock Mrs. Clifford VIA return TO her friends at
Stacxton, Me-, carrying with her the heartfelt
gratitude OF the seanen OF tho Abbic Clifford VINO
owe their lives to her energy and presence Of mind.

market may be 1t would be difficult to forecast;
but 1t seems now as II the effect OF this sup
Elemental treaty upon gold values had
been largely over-discounted, and a re-
action is most likely. Let the new
treaty be ever so satisfactory which is taking too
much for granted, and 1t cannot at once restore
that favor for American investments among British
capitalists which followed the first enthusiastic an
nouncement Of the Treaty of Washington. 1t will
not stimulate the crops to larger produce, and
can scarcely interrupt the movement now in
progress Of shipping specie to adjust heavy
count abroad for excessive imports. 1t cannot
give us any new bonds to take the place Of
this specie, and hence must prove a very made
quate resource for the existing strait in which our
foreign exchanges are placed. In this view the de-
cline Of per cent in the gold premium since Satur-
day is certainly excessive unless Secretary Bout
well should take advantage of the peaceful pros
pect supposed to be guaranteed by the new treaty

MONEY FIVE TO SEVEN PER CENT
The money market worked easily throughout the
greater part Of the day at five and six per cent on
governments and stocks, but became more active
at the Close and loaned at seven, with exceptions
at seven coin among the stock houses at that
period.
