Z" A BRAVE CArrAIN:-A very cour-
ageors feat was performed BY Nor
wegian captain named Hansen, iii the
latter part Of October, off the coast of
England. lis bark, loaded with iron
and deals, was badly injured in a fear
full gale, and all her pumps were dis
ablcd. A smack came i'll sight, and
Capt. .Hanson's crew, not believing the
vessel could live, left him. He re-
fused to leave, hoping to get his bark
into Grimsby. He managed, all
alone, to scttho foresail, and to light
the side-lights and the pinnacle light,
and then stccrcd toward the west. He
fell down several times from sheer
weariness. The cabin was full of
water, but hc finally succeeded in get
ting his vessel into port.

What to Do with Tram Trta1mps.

Tho authorities Of a city lave sent
a Circular to the authorities Of other
cities, requesting them to meet in con-
vention to discuss the proper treat
ment Of tramps. Referring to this
an exchange adds: The evil is SO
large and SO universally diflused, that
the action of town or State authorities
can alone grapple With it successfully,
and the effort now being made to Sc
cure uniform municipal Legislation i'll
the matter is q wise and necessary
one. LII
What is needed is to set tramps at
work. No doubt, there is occasionally
an honest and industrious man who
becomes tramp because he cannot
find work. Itwoull be hard to refuse
such man the temporary relief
which he Sc ,ely needs, but indiscrimi-
nate private charity encourages
score Of idle vagrants where it relieves
one real case. of suffering. The hon
est tramp will gladly pay Cor food and
lodging by work, and the lazy tramp,
who discovers that he can no longer
live on charity, will find the charm Of
profession gone. Let us have, i'll
every town, n relief committee of the
town officials, who will turn no man
away hungry, but who viii require
trnmps t. work out the full value Of
what they receive In this way the
tramp nuisance .can be speedily abol-
ishcd, householdcrs can be saved from
annoyance and danger, while no in
justice will be done to tho deserving
poor. The experiment has been en-
tirely successful. The unitormsaction
of all the towns in the country, now
ever, is needed before The tramp nui-
sance can be finally and cllectually
suppressed,

Where the Sun Does Not Set,

A scene witnessed by some travellers
i'll the north Of Norway, from cliff
elevated thousand feet above the sen,
is thus described:
at our feet The ocean stretched
away in silent vastncss; the sound Of
its waves scarcely reached our niry
lookout; away III the north, hchugc
old sun swung low along the horizon,
like the slow beat Of the pendulum in
the tall clock Of our grandfathers
parlor corner. We all stood silent,
locking at our watches. When both
hands came together at twelve, mid
night, the full round orb hung
triumphantly above the waves, a
bridge Of gold running due, north,
spanning the water between us aud
him. There he. shone in silent majes-
ty, which n.krlew no setting We
involuntarily took off our hats; no
word was said. Combine. if you can,
the most brilliant sunrise and sunset
you ever saw, and tho beauties will
pale before the gorgeous coloring
which now lit up the ocean, heaven
and mountain. In half or hour the
sun had swung up perceptibly on his
beat, the colors changed to those Of
morning, n fresh breeze ripplcd over
the food. one songstcr after another
pipcd up in this grove behind us--we
had slid into another day. a- IT.
