THE BOAT.

For some moments so completely be-
wildered and startled we're the three men
at the loss of their treasure and the dis
covery of the fact that their enemy was
none other than Birney, the police spy of
Sydney, that they did not move. Instinct
lively they recognized him as an evil genius,
acknowledging him to be none other than
the enemy who had stolen their goods and
boat and marvelling how he had ever come
to the island upon which they had been
wrecked.
OF course Raymond had not Informed
his companions Of his true identity or of
the part which had been played by Birney
in his capture as prisoner at Sydney, and
his forcibls detention upon the Shooting
Star. The gold was gone, and there sailing
away with the lost treasure was the inso-
lent spy who had repaid his discontinue
in Sydney when he had first met the trio
with this revenge. Out Of that he sailed
his boat, soon fading from view, az the
waves carried it, receding farther and farth-
er away from the island.
All their former distress and dishearted-
ness at once returned to the three mel.

to alleviate the monotOny and misery of
their isolated and forlorn condition. Now
they had lost the gold, their boat was gone,
and Raymond's mind was tortured with
the thought that the police spy might re-
turn with ship, and carry him to England
prisoner.
The men looked at one another despair
ingly.
''We are in a sad condition" said Yer
ner, after long pause of silence. THAT
man has robbed us of all that we had, and
our boat and goods are gone. We have no
resources now but to endeavor to attract
the attention Of some passing vessel To
exc out miserable existence on this bafa
rem island is fate too forlorn to contem-
plate without the hope Of speedy deliver
ance. Let us remove large quantity Of
the dead wood in the valley up to the sum-
NIT of the hill, end keep bright fire burn
ing all night to attract any who may be
passing to the Island. We may be entirely
out of the course of vessels, but we can

The amount Of deaths per annum is 33.

This loss Is more than compensated by the
number of births. The average duration.
of life throughout the globe is 33 years.
One-fourth Of its population dies before
the seventh year, and one-half before the
seventeenth. Out of 10000 persons only
zone reaches his hundreth year, only one in
900 his eightieth, and only one in 100 his
slxty-fifth. Married people live longer
than unmarried ones, and tall man Is
likely to live longer than a short one. Un-
I'll the hftleth year, women have better
chance Of life than men but beyond that
period the chances are equal. Sixty-fve
persons out " 900 marry. The months
OF June and December are those in which
marriages are most frequent. Children
born IN spring are generally stronger than
those born In other seasons Births and
deaths chiefly occur in the night. The

Clyde Shipbuilding Trade.

This trade has been kebt moderately well
employed during the last month. The
vessels launched and building however,
are of the smaller description of coasting
vessels. Only one large ocean going
steamer appears in the list of this month 5
launches while nine Of the vessels are un-
der 200 tons measurement. There is a
noticeable decease in the building Of large
sailing vessels, the six ships launched dur
ing the month having an aggregate under
5000 tons. The number of vessels
launched during May is larger than any
month for the last four years, and the ag-
gregate tonnage Of these exceeds that Of May
1874, by 300 tons, but is under that Of
May, 1873, and May, 1872, by 5000 and
5000 tons respectively. There appears a
large increase in the total number of yes
selse built during the five months, but the
aggregate tonnage of these is below that of
the same periods in 1874 and 1873 A few
contracts have been closed during the
month, and the vessels on the stocks on
the 3lst of May numbered 113. OF these,
% will likely be launched before our next

room as the land faded out of sight, and
there earnestly discussed their future
plans. The ex-secretary was quietly mo-

silence, occasionally speaking word in

A Dog on the Police Force.

There is dog in Allegheny, Pa, owned
by officer Mitchell, of the night police
force, concerning which the Pittsburp
Telegraph speaks thus He il a common
looking, medium-sized, jet-black dog
Mitchell came in possession Of him one
bleak winter night last season when the
dog was shiverirg on the street in ! starv-
ing condition. He was taken home and
provided for, and ever since has proved 4
valuable addition to the police force by IA
sisting the officer III the discharge ~ his
duties. He follows the officer increasingly
on all his rounds, and when another officer
raps for assistance, the dog makes haste
with all speed to the spot, and commences
to bark. Should any Of the officers have
occasion to give chase after any one, the
dog marks out the man, and catching him
by the pantaloons detains him by worrying
until the arrival of the officers A short
time since the officers succeeded in captu-
ring prisoner, that without the assistance
Of the dog would have escaped. The dog
can discern intoxicated persons from
Others, and should he meet with such a
case on his own PerambulatiOns, he keeps
M howl until an officer arrives. The
police always make it point 10 20 to the
spot where the dog is barking, and they
are never fooled. The most singular feat
ure Of the dogs life il that he will not
accompany Officer Mitchell in daylight
when dressed in citizens clothes. He
sleeps IN daytime, and is always on duty
at night with the officer, who prizes hun
highly.

BIRNEY.

"No more gold Z
"None."
"How muon have we got T.
Edgar Percy took up the knapsack lying
by his side and weighted it critically.
1t was several nights after we last left
our adventures. No more troublesome
visits had been made by their enemy, and
they had explored the entire gulch and
had collected all the golden nuggets they
could find. Now, in the moonlight, in
their little camp on top Of the highest
bluff, they were seated talking over their
good fortune.
The above question Percy did not at
once answer.
This knapsack holds about ten pounds
of the stuff the little buckskin bag about
four or five pounds. With the loose curl
osites and nuggets We have in our pock.
cts, | should say that We have about fifteen
pounds Of solid gold.
"A fortune T. calculated Werner.
"A long way from fortune, but good
beginning, said Raymond.
''lf we could only use it, said Percy,
as he thoughtfully poised in air the KNAPP
sack. tell you, my friends, if We could
reach Australia we would not lack for
means to keep us alive until we struck a
rich lead. "
He took the knapsack and little buck
skin bag and placed them under boulder
where they kept their treasure The
precious hoard was always with them when
they we're awake, and they slept near it
always. Soon thereafter they sought rest
With the conscious and prevailing con
viction that the enemy who had stolen
their goods and boat had left the island
after his second attack upon them, had
come carelessness.
No one watched, for they feared no in
trusion. They were soon all three of
them fast asleep, all unconscious of the
fact that their common enemy had been
watching them. A stealthy form had been
secreted behind a large boulder near by,
and as he became convinced that they
were asleep, he cautiously approached the
camp, and stepping over their sleeping
bodies, pushed away the boulder under
which the gold was .secreted, secured the
knapsack and the bag, and was soon haste
ming down the hillside towards the beach.
He had overheard their conversation, had
taken advantage of their temporary ne
glect Of their hard earned treasure, and
had received the benefit Of their labor.
It was early morning when Werner and
Percy we're awakened by loud cry from
Raymond Then there was a wild and ex-
cited commotion.
What Is it n demanded Percy and
Werner in the same breath.
''Gone !" cried Raymond.
What is gone r. they cried.
The gold =
They rushed to the boulder. Sure
enough, it had been disturbed, and the
gold was gone
They picked up their guns and hastened
down the hillside, scarcely knowing what
they did.
There on the beach was their boat, and
Just entering 1t was form-their enemy.
As he entered the boat and pushed away
from the shore, he threw off his cap an6
rough, savage-hke garb, revealing as ht
did his real identity.
And as he sailed away with the COLDER
nuggets, Raymond uttered a cry Of rage
and surprise, for the savage was none otheI
than Blrney, the police spy Of Sydney

Tobacco.

WASHINGTON, July 22,-The July re-
turns to the department of agriculture
show that the average of tobacco is greater
than that of last year, the increase being
in the great tobacco States. Maryland
has increased her are 4 per cent; Virginia,
80; North Carolina, 43; South Carolina,
Z; Florida, %; Mississippi, 26; Arkansas,
10; Tennessee, 2O3; Kentucky, 223; Ohio,
25; Indiana, 40; Illinois, 56; Missouri, 80;
New York, Pennsylvania and Texas, re-
port the same as last year New Hamp-
shire has reduced her small average 80 Der
cent, Massachusetts, %; Connecticut, 2;
I Georgia, 80; Alabama, 10; Louisiana, z;
Wisconsin, IL; Kansas, Ii. The condition
of the crop is most satisfactory in the larg-
est tobacco States, and is 20 per cent.
above the average. The other large pro-
ducing States are either very near q full
average or above. The remarkably de-
pressed condition is noted only in the
smaller producing States.
