EBENSBURG, PA, FRIDAY, JUNE 10. 1874

Then two splashes were heard, as ne pushed
Wentworth into the water, quickly follow
ing.
The suddenness Of the movement gave the
two men an advantage. Ere the pirate cap
tain could recover from his astonishment.
they were many fathoms astern of the
schooner, swimming toward the approaching
cutter; whose crew, now aware of what had
taken place, redoubled their efforts
As soon as possible, the pirate lowered
boats in pursuit, bat they were many faith
oms distant when Wentworth and his COM
panion were picked up by tie formers men.
Shot after shot was discharged from the
schooner without, however, striking the
cutter, whose crew pulling brayeIy on were
soon met by other boats from the hris
when the pursuing pnutes turning went
back to their vessel.
''Now, then, who are you who have saved
my life?" said Wentworth, addressing his
pirate deliverer.
but for my beard, you might remember
one, who could never forget your face, was
the reply.
''In Heavens name, who are yOu?"
Il am Henri Cardo, whom you saved five
years ago, from drowning, when ! fell over
board from the schooner aboard which | had
taken passage with my mother"
"Ay, ay, [ know you, now >" said Went
worth, recalling to mind the circumstance.
Soon after he was aboard the brig with
his wife in his arms. When he told her
how he had been saved, she overwhelmed
Henri with her thanks.
Afterward, however, the young pirate
could not be prevailed upon to make a
promise to give up his lasless life, and one
morning he was found missing from the
brig, from which, as was subsequently dis
covered, he had contrived, under cover Of
darkness, to swim to land distant not a
league.
The schooner was captured by the brig,
on the next day, after Il sharp chase, and
towcd into Havana.
Subsequently the islands were completely
swept Of the lawless desperadoes there, and
the days Of piracy were ended.
Wentworth afterward met, in Havana,
Henri Cardo, who had married a good wife,
and settled down, through her influence,
into the ways Of peaceab!e, law-abiiing
citizen.

\ JOVial Yankee.

In 1917, some English officers were sta
toned at the fort Of Accra, on the coast of
Africa, and it was of course their duty to-
suppress the slave trade as far us their power
extended. One day Il rakish-Iookiug schooner
appeared, and from it landed a very agree
able Yankee skipper. lie was asked to din
ner, became very jOyial, and invited all the
officers to accompany him on board his ship
for few days ''poggi'' fishing.
The invitation was accepted, but next
morning the officers remembered in time
that it might be rather awkward for them
to be found by an English cruiser on board
of ship which was well understood to be
SLAYER. Their withdrawal was lucky, for
next morning appeared II. NJ. S. Devasta-
tion, which Immediately gave chase to the
schooner. After time, the schooner was
overhauled, and brought into the roads Of
Accra. No slaves were actually on board.
and the Yankee captain had taken good care
to have his papers in order Accordingly,
another dinner took place, including the of
fcers of the Devastation, as well as the
previous party.
Dinner was very lively, and was followed
by game Of leapfrog; after which the
guests tried how many chairs they could
clear at a standing jump. a good many
falls attended these postprandiul athletics
as the fun grew boisterous the Yankee skip
per avoided liquors and withdrew. The
naval officers returned to their ship a little
before dawn. When they got up next day
the Yankee schooner had shipped her cargo
and departed in safety.

TO LIZZIE.

oftentimes look DER the past
With feelings Of regret;
And mentally review those seen <
never can forget
Like oases which bloom TO bless
The arid plains of sand,
SO will my hfe's most pleasant scenes
In mem'ry firmly stand.
They come and go like clouds which san
Over the breast of Heaven;
When by the winds Of ileeting years
O'er life's dark sea they're driven
But there's one scene-a winters night
When mid the grave and gay
We met as strangers meet, but soon
That distance passed away.
For there was that about thee which
Banished all outward form,
As power Of sumbeams melt the snow
When winter days are warm.
1, meath the bright glance of thine eyes,
Seemed under their control,
And need say their radiance thawed
The ice which bound my soul.
Thou now art in thy girlhoOd, and
Lies scenes look bright to thee
The future is a country which
We're fated not to sec.
But, if we could, those visions might
Most painful scenes create,
Which would all Joy of present time
Likely annihilate-
But would throw not DER thy mind,
Those thoughts of sombre hue;
For life cannot but tecm with scenes
BeneAccnt to YOU
But when yOu retrospect the past,
Recall a winter scene,
And keep it, Lizzie, as / shall,
In mem'ry ever green.

"cruel parents, - was adopted and brought

COLLINS CRATES RIDE.
ANOTHER VERSION.

Away he sped when the flood came down,
Rattle-ty-baCg, past village and town
Now hugEing his beast with all his might,
Now clutching its tail in a terrible fright;
Now bouncing upon the animal tall,
Bumpety bump, like \ rubber ball
Away he sped till the race was DER
And the brute reiued I'm AT his cottage door.
Half breathless, he shrieked, THE Mill
DAM bust.
And was the first to get up and dust.
Rachel Rebecca, my darling wife,
Thank Heaven, that spared your husband 5
life,'
Then he hung from his saddle as still as a
mouse,
To hear the soft voice of his gentle spouse.
His eve grew bright and his heart beat fast
For he knew she was going to speak at last
A nd so she was, but the words he heard
Were not SO sweet as the voice of a bird
As they broke the calm of the morning cool
'Why wasn't you drowned, YOU darned old
fool 30
