A Sailors Life.

A New York paper says The arrival
of the brig Lady Louisa, bound from
Shanghai to this port, with cargo of
tea, solves a mystery of the sea, and re-
stores to a family one of its members
who has been given up as dead. The
commander of the Lady Louisa, Capt.
John Fletcher Kimball, went to sea i'm n
whaling vessel from this port twenty
three years ago, and was reported and
believed to have been lost, with a boat 5
crew, while in pursuit of whale, and
was never heard from afterward. Capt
Kimball's father, J. w. Kimball, lived at
that time at Hudson, N. Y. Hoping
to cure his son of his desire to- follow
seafaring life, he had procured him q
place in the whaler. When the vessel
returned the news of young Kimball's s
supposed death was conveyed to his
family, and they gave up all hopes of
ever seeing him again. Several years
ago they removed to Elizabeth, n. j.,
where they now reside. A short time
ago letter was received ut Hudson, N.
Y, addressed "To the first Methodist
clergyman of Hudson" This letter,
which was signed by "Capt. John
Fletcher Kimball," stated that it's au-
thor commanded brig trading between
Cardiff, Wales, and Shanghai, China
that he was the son of j. w. Kimball
that he had repeatedly written to his
family but received no reply, and that
he now took this indirect method to as
certain whether any member of it still
lived. He had suffered great hard
ships, and expecting soon to receive a
cargo of tea consigned to New York, he
had made up his mind to take the vessel
into British waters, dispose of his inter-
est in it, and abandon the sea forever.
This letter was sent to Capt. Kimballs g
family at Elizabeth, where all it's mem
bers are still living, and for the first
they thus learned that he was alive. A
recent telegram from London reported
that the Lady Louisa had stopped at st.
Helena for water, on her way to America.

ParlOr Games.

Two new parlor amusements are thus
described: Two players are closely
blinded with bandage made of their
ockethandkerchiefs. Each one is pro-
vided with a saucer full of cake or crack
er crumbs, which is held in the left
hand, and spoon, which is heid in the
right hand. A sheet is spread upon the
floor, upon which the players sit, and at
a given signal they begin to feed each
other. Their efforts to find each others
mouths with their spoons never fail to
afford much sport. Another amusing
experiment is to. try to blow out a can
die blindfolded. The candle is placed
upon n table, up to which player is
first led; he then walks back six steps,
turns around three times, and walks for
ward as nearly in the direction of the
candle as possible, and tries to blow it
out. If he happens to wander to the
wrong part of the room, the effect of the
blowing is very funny.
