Tertullian and Justin Martyr, Gibbon,

constructed persons TO tell US they

much like the answer an editor sent US

takes it up will send us free tickets as
we would like 10 hear the arguments.

The SHIP RosALIA.-A correspondent
at Port Townsend kindly furnished the
following information respecting this
ship:
The ship Rosalia, which E. s. Fowler
& Co. were agents for, put back to this
port last Saturday with mutinous crew;
they said the ship was not seaworthy.
A survey was called, and she was pros
nounced sound and seaworthy. The
crew still refused duty, thinking they
would be brought on shore at Port
Townsend, and have good time and
beat the Captain out of the advance of
$40 each. But the Captain had them
all put in irons, and hired the Goliah to
tow the ship to Royal Roads to deliver
up the men to British Authorities. After
the ship got below Point Wilson the
ringleader. who is said to be runaway
man-of-war's man, thinking he would
be identified by the Victoria police, told
the Captain that if he would not go into
Victoria they would all return to dutv.
So the Captain made them sign the Of
fcial log and let them out Of irons and
they returned to duty, and the Goliah
towed her 30 miles outside of the Cape.

It is said that on one occasion
as Miss Wordsworth, sister of
the poet, was passing through
a wood which the stock-dove
was filling with his soft
music, she fell in with a coun-
try woman who exclaimed, Il
am SO fond Of stock -dovesF'
"Oh!" thought Miss Words
worth, sat last l have come on
one of natures poets, with a
soul to appreciate the Ibeauti-
full music Of the birds" Very
ruthlessly was the dream dis
enchanted by an explanatory
remark of the woman's:: Some
likes them in pies and some
likes them roasted; but for my
part, I think there's nothing
like them stewed with onions.

Many ofthe country people
living near Saco. Me-, still OBJ
serve the old custom Of bath
ing on the beach on the 26th
Of June, under the delusion
that there is a special virtue in
the water for healing chronic
diseases On that day. The GUS
tom, however, is not half 90
generally observed as it was
half century ago. Then, men,
women, and children, sound
2 people as well as sick, ,thronged
the beach. The custom may
have arisen from the practice
Of bathing in Ireland on the
.26th- of June for the cure Of
humors, etc., but there is a tra-
rdition that an old fortune-tel-
lera first got. the people into
the notion.
