A HEROINE ON THE OCEAN.-It has
been stated that the brig Abbie Clifford.
OF Stockton, Me-, was spoken April 6,
on the equator, bound to New York from
feTnambuco, with Cnptain Clifford dead,
the mate in dying condition, and Mrs
Clifford, the captains wife, sick. Ad.
Woes received lately report that the
vessel was again spoken on the 2lst of
April, in latitude % North, longitude so
West, IN command Of Mrs. Clifford, the
mate in tho meantime having probably
either died or remained too i'll to nayi.
gate the vessel, which duty was being
heroicallJ performed by the lady. It
appears that between the 9th and the
2lst ult., she had sailed the brig % de-.
gress of latitude. notwithstanding her
sickness, acd she will. no doubt. succeed
in bringing her into port. Mrs. Cliff.
lord belongs to Stockton, Me-, and had
sailed in company with her husband on
many previous voyages, during which
she took great interest in the profession
OF her husband. by whom she was taught
the art of navigation. In the present
emergency, the knowledge thus acquired
IS being used in manner to reflect the
highest credit upon her sex, and presents
ON example of patience and fortitude
which must win the admiration of men
Captain Clifford, her late husband, was
about thirty-hve years old, and was
highly respected for his excellent chm
racter and skillful seamanship.

How JUDGE DAVIS BECAME R1cH.-
Judge Davis, OF Illinois, is rich man.
The public may not know how he be-.
came wealthy. About thirty-fiye Years
ago, when Judge Davis was q praoticipp
lawyer in the West, he was employed bY
Connecticut man to collect $500. Davis
went to the place where the debtor lived.
and found him to be rich in landed DOS.
sessions, but without spare. dollar in
money. he finally settled the bill bv
giving deed for the tract OF land-a
Hat, moist and undesirable piece Of land
IN appearance, lying close by sheet OF
water, and consisting, perhaps, of sixty
acres. Davis subsequently met his Con-
neotiout client in st. Louis, when the
latter, (who seems not to havs possessed
the usual Connecticut shrewdness,) fell
to and gave him q ''reguler blowing up"
Tor taking the land rather than insisting
upon the $500 in cash; he didn't want
any OF your Western land, and he told
Davis that, having accepted it in pay
ment for the debt. he had better keep it
himself. and pay over the money out OF
his own pocket. To this Davis agreed.
Stepping into friends place of bust.
ness, he borrowed $500, took the Con-
nectiout mans receipt for the land, and
held the land for rise. That piece of
land now forms part Of one Of the su-
burbs of Chicago. Judge Davis has
sold $500, 600 or $500, 600 worth of il.
and has nearly 81, 900, 900 worth of it
left. 1t is striking example OF what
the possession of Western property has
done for its holders; and as the story
has never before been printed. We
thought it would be interesting enough
to publish.
