Cruelty at Sea.

A letter from Hong Kong, China,
says that al American ship from Cardiff,
with coal to tho navy yard, arrived in
port, and the crew, one and all, pre-
sented themselves before Consul Bailey,
and each told a sad story. The second
mate, who was yictimized for disobey-
ing the captains order to ill treat the
crew, had died from his wounds. The
poor man had seven holes in his head,
and his cheek bones were broken. On
his back several humps were visible.
His legs were rive.ed by sail needles,
and in this state he was confined,
chained, in the lazaretto for four days /;
and when he was carried up aud laid Oh
deck he was covered with dried blood
and filth, and was out of his mind,
talking incoherently, and sometimes ex-
claiming "My wife! my child my
childi" In his pocket was found let
ter from his wife, in which the following
passage occurs "Our child has Just
got another tooth" The captain, who
superintended the operation, now
ordered some buckets of salt water to be
thrown over the body of the victim,
who was stark naked and sand and
broom soon removed all dried blood,
and torrents of quick blood oozed from
the wounds. The man during this de-
moniacal torture only cried out {: "Oh!
oh !" in deep groans. He was after
ward placed in the carpenters shop,
where he could not stretch out his
limbs. In this position he was kent
four days. Then he died. When his
bodywas taken out to be sewn in
sheethnd consigned to the deep, it was
impossible to stretch out his legs, his
knees adhering firmly to his breast. -

A Fish. Catching Spider.

I was at Colonel Oakley Bynum's
spring, in Lawrence county, Ala, near
the town of Courtland, where ! saw a
school of minnows playing in the sun
shine near the edge of the water. AL
at once a spider as large as tho end OF
my finger dropped down among them
from a tree hanging over the spring.
The spider seized one of the minnows
near the head. The fish thus seized
was about three inches long. AS soon
as it was seized by its captor it swain
around swiftly in the wator, and fire.
quently dived to the bottom; yet the
spider held on to it. Finally it came to
the top, turned upon its back, and died.
1t seemed to have been bitten or wound
ed on the back of the neck, near where
tho head joins. When the fish was dead
the spider moved off with it to the
shore. The limb of the tree from which
the spider must have fallen was between
ten and fifteen feet above the water. Its
success shows that it had the Judgment
of practical engineer.

Made Crazy by Fright.

One Of the most striking things con.
rocted With tho early Incidents OF the
liTAoklyn theater fire was the effect pro
duoed upon tho minds OF many persons,
especially women, who were rescued
from the burning building. There were
in several places scenes resembling
hose ola madhouse. Some grew silly,
and when they wero led from the door,
fl olishly prattlcd OF matters in no way
connected with the tragedy. More
seemed to lose all consciousness of wha
was passing, and frantically rushed
here and there, exclaiming loudly aud
gesticulating. One woman, led away
by two men, earnestly pleaded to be al-
lowed to return, and evidently would
have endeavored to go lack into tho
theater, where she thought ono of her
friends still was. So determined was
she, that finally they were obliged to
rnisc her III their arms and carry her
away. On the opposite side Of Wash
ington street another woman walked
rapidly back and forth, shaking her
head slowly, and muttering: "He's a
good one, good one," without seeming
to be conscious Of what she said. In the
station house was one man, bruised and
burned, who required two men to keep
him quiet. Starting up suddenly and
staring wildly, he would throw out his
arms and seem to be frightened by
something lie thought he still saw.
When quieted, his head sunk on his
breast and he was unconscious OF what
was passing. A young woman Of pre-
possessing appearance acted as if intoxi-
Gated. Several times sho burst into fits
of laughter, and talked bits of nonsense
to those caring for her. Still others ap-
peared stunned and stupefied by what
they had passed through, and remem-
bered nothing Of the scenes. A strong
looking man said that aft leaving his
seat and starting for tho exit he had no
recollection of what happened until he
was upon the street. Tho greater por-
tion of those who came out, however.
had vivid recollection of tho whole
scene, and recovered their presence OF
mind after the first shock,

Why they Lose their Fortunes.

If We trace tho real causes of the dis
asters which, Of late, have overwhelmed
50 many Of our rich men, says an *
change, we will generally find that these
disasters are mainly attributable to
.s ostside speculation" Ousoitlo sprpu-
lation is as essentially an American ex-
preston no ii 10 peculiarly national
weakness. In Europe, where business
is conducted on a more conservative
basis, where the merchant is content
with more modest rewards, devotes less
time to business cares, and does not
yield up his whole life to tho pursuit of
wealth with that feverish intensity
which characterizes the American, out
side spaculations are comparatively un-
known. Each one puraues his own par
ticular avocation or line of business, in
vests his gains in properties with which
be is familiar, and does not risk them in
doubtful speculation with the hope of
doubling the accumulations of years by
some lucky hit. In this country, on the
other hand, great vicissitudes in fortune
mark our commercial history. In pros
porous times the American business man
makes la. ge profits. At certain periods
of the year he has very considerable
capital lying idle. Seasons OF excep-
tional prosperity engender all manner
of new enterprises-such as railroad
and mining companies, and the like.
Our thriving business man hears daily
of the enormous risa in the shares OF
these companies. He has ample funds
on hand and stands in good credit.
Others have made money in this man
her. and why should not he do like
wise2 Thus he embarks in outside
speculatioas, which for years may be
successful, but which in nine cases ont
of ten have ultimately been the ruin of
those who tried them. Those rich men
and wealthy families in New York, liv-
ing on incomes derived from accumu-
lated wealth or the returns of legitimate
business, never speculate. The Astors
don't speculate. A. 7. Stewart never
speculated, All of this class-more or
less wealthy-owe their immunity from
the disasters which ovorwhelm the less
cautious to keeping aloof from outside
speculation.
