is that the mechanical professions are

whom he had been suspected of enter

which Kosciusko replied that he did
not propose to pay buggy hire for any
woman who called him donkey.

THE GIRL THAT PROVIDENCE SENT.

1t was when We were living at the
Virginia Three Forks, and good help
was as scarce as hens teeth, that father
came walking in one day with small,
neat, gray-eyed woman, and large
bundle in tow.
Where did you find herr" asked
mother. dropping the ladle with which
she was basting a savory goose. and pre-
pairing 10 resign that branch of the
household work instanter.
Providence sent her," answered
father, with sigh of relief-he had been
girl-hunting for a month. "She looks
strong and tids and has an honest ex-
preston"
"Humph." said mother, shortly,
.'where's her certificate, or don't the
girls from celestial Intelligence offices
need any? Have you cnaracter?" she
asked. turning to the girl.
Il had one, ma am. she answered.
respectfully. "but the mice ate it; I'll
soon have another-try me, ma am. just

..What is your name, asked mother.

laid aside her shawl and hood.
..Ellinora. was the answer, with a
pleasant smile
.Wel, well call you Nellie for
short. and you can go right to work af
the vegetables for dinner" and mother
proceeded to show her what duties
were expected of her.
She proved TO be an excellent serv-
ant. though Il little queer and obstinate,
but she never went out; had no assocl-
ates. and though we knew nothing
more about her than if she had dropped
from the skies she seemed faithful and
honest.
She had been with us about a month
when one night we heard loud talking
in her room; it was still early IN the
evening, and as ours was q country
home il was habit we had fallen into
of retiring soon after supper, If not to
bed to our own rooms. We all heard
the loud talking at the same time, and
met in the hall.

AnIII-Fafed Vessel.

The American bark Wild Hunter, which
was cleared from this port on the 18th OF
April for Reval, Russia, with cargo of
1900 bales of upland cotton, was dismasted
in whirlwind, and put into Boston, where
she was repaired and sailed for her original
destination. On the 221 inst. she took fire
off Ssmbro, Nova Scotia, and was
destroyed, as has already been men
toned In these columns. The mail
accounts state that the bark was discovered
to be on fire at 10 O'Clock, night OF June %,
by smoke issuing through the main hatch
and increasing in volume. All hands were
set at work, and holes were cut through the
deck, and water In as great quantity as
possible sent into the hold with the force
pump to quench the fire. At O'Clock next
morning the smoke had ceased to issue
from the hold, and 1t was thought by the
Captain that he had succeeded in extinguish
ing the fire, but at intervals during the day,
fearing that a few sparks might still re-
main in the cotton and cause fresh out
break, water was forced in between decks
and a sharp watch kept by the men the
whole tine. Saturday morning. at four
O'Clock, smoke was discovered in
new corner, coming from under
the starboard mizzen channel. A hole was
cut through and water poured into the far
thest point that could be reached. This had
apparently done its work, as the smoke went
nearly down and everything looked favor
able to the fire being kept under control
until the ship could reach Halifax, for which
place she was now headed. At ten O'Clock
the schooner Colorado hove in sight and,
being signalled by the Wild Hunter, bore
down and was requested to keep alongside.
At two o'clock in the afternoon boats
crew from the Colorado boarded the bark
and four Of the schooner's men remained to
assist the crew of the burning ship IN their
efforts to keep down the flames. Shortly
afterward, however, fire broke out In
another place through the cabin floor, and
gained Roadway so quickly that
1t soon became beyond the power
of the men to eXtinguish it, and at four
o'clock, seeing it was useless to work longer
In their endeavor to save the bark, the
crew abandoned her aud were taken on
board the Colorado. The fire, before the
men left, had broken out in several places
in after parts Of the ship, and when the
Colorado left the vicinity, at o'clock,
having laid to until that hour, the whole
vessel was q mass OF flames, huge fire
tongues leaping heavenward, Illuminating
the ocean all around and making q magnif-
cent sight Captain Treat saved all his
papers and nautical instruments, and the
men, fifteen in number, all their personal
effects. The Wild Hunter was 900 tons
burthen, built at East Dennis, Cape Cod, in
1855, owned in Boston by George e. Lord &
Co, and insured there, and was cleared
from this port by Messrs. Richardson &
Barnard.

Heavy Thunder Stoym.

Yesterday afternoon, about five o'clock,
Savannah was visited by the heaviest thun-
der storm we have had this year. AT first
there was lively fall Of hail, which lasted
8 few minutes, and then the rain came
down in torrents, completely flooding the
$ reefs, and driving everybody within doors.
The lightning was terrific and incessant,
but we have heard of no damage
being done. though there were several large
trees deuuded Of their branches, and one
Of the gusno sheds on the wharf OF the
Ocean Steamship Company was blown down
aud the sentry box, in which the policeman
stands, near the canal, was demolished. The
rain lasted over an hour, and there were
slight prospects OF clearing of, but about
uine O'Clock the rain again set in and con-
tiuued the greater portion OF the night. The
dzy was intensely warm, and the stmOs-
phere was charged with electricity pre-
vious 10 the storm. Last night the tenn
perature was decidedly pleasant.
