than justice to his Romanza from ezra

however, her exceedingly sweet voice
counter balanced that defect.
The rest OF the programme served as
rare treat, mostly all the numbers
being encored. The native song "Alo-

"Flower Song by Miss Avery were
most hatteringly received; "rhe Fisher

cy-could link their destinies to a pal

amusing sufficient wealth to enable
them to regain the lordly estate lost at

CHANGING owe an exchange, in the
hope of squirting into action a jaded
idea, my eyes fell upon the following:
peanuts were v so cheap as they
now are, the price per pound being
from 81 up to 8 cents" Selling my
hat, l hurried down to the stand of a
disguised count, who has heretofore
managed to escape the sidewalk ordi-
nance, aud asked for q '.nickel's worth
of peanuts. Spreading out q large
newspaper, told him to empty them
in it, as I knew that all the pocket
Dol l had wouldn't accommodate q
pound of tibrous fruit. Judge then,

as the count leisurely filled up q little
battered tin pint measure with his

them into my %improvised receptacle.
The secret was o out-l stood in the
presence of a bonanza king, a grinding
monopolist, who was content with

As 1 approached Manikuagon Point,
opposite the red light-ship, warning
vessels off that dangerous shoal. l saw a
very small boat standing in from the
open sea, so far off that it seemed as
if it must have come up out of the sea,
and did not appreciate the dangers
about it As w both approached the
beach. l saw that it contained a man
and two children-a bright-eyed boy
about eight years old and a girl about
ten. Tho man jumped from the bow
into the surf. and pushed the boat off.
while directing tile little boy at the
stern in a gruff, sea-worn voice:
''Heave away, lad: get your oar over
to slarboard, or she'll SWING around.
Now, Mary. shove her head over
hurry up! don't you see that heavy
swell? Hold hard! Now get her head
about. quick as you can. That's it.
Hau! in your sheet" And at last
those little mites were standing out to
sea again, and settling themselves
down in the stern-sheets Us composed
ly as they might sit down on a door
sill.
"Where on earth, sir, are your chill
dren going, alone, and on this stormy
coastP Will you ever see them againP"
10 yes, Sir" he replied, smiling;
they are used TO a boat; they are tax
ing some seals l have just brought in
from the nets down to the next bay;
it's only q few miles. We don't think
much about such dangers; but we are
perhaps a little too vcnturcsome some
times. One OF my friends On Anti
cost sent his two boys to take the
boat across the mouth of their bay for
a load Of hay. A squall came up SO
heavy that the boat could not beaNin-
to shelter. and they were carried out
to sea. Nothing was aver seen of
them afterward." Here he scanned
the horizon, and looked after his own
boat with a thoughtful expression.
but with this fair wind the children
will soon reach home. We have an
other danger besides the weather:
sharks are dangerous here; they some
times follow a boat for hours, and now
and then they cupsize her and take a
mar down. AT least We suppose
it must be done by the sharks. Last
year, right out there, IN Indian was
after a seal; pretty soon We saw him
stand up and fight something in the
water with his paddle. In a minute
his capsized and. he went under.
When We got there all w found was
his INT stove in amidships."
"But that seems more like the &C
ton Of the devil-tish."

any devil-tish here, and there are plen'
ty of sharks."-G. Il. Furnham, i,

The Siege nr v;cksbcrx.

We had NO siegc-yuns except six
~thirty-two Founders, and there were
none ut the West To draw from. Adj
miral Porter. however, supplied us
with q battery of %navy-guns of large
caliber. aud with these. and the field
artillery used in the campaign, the siege
began. The first thing to DO. was to
get the artillery in batteries where they
would occupy commanding positions;
then, to establish the camps, under
cover from the fire of the enemy. but
Is near up as possible; and then to IL
struct rihe-pits and covered ways, to
connect the entire command bv the
shortest route. The enemy did not
harass US much while we were cou-
structing our batteries. Probably their
artillery ammunition was short, and
their infantry Was. kept down by IL
sharp-shootcrs. who were always on
the alert and ready to fire at IL head
whenever it showed itself above the
rebel works.
In no place We're u lines more than
six hundred yards from the enemy. 1t
was necessary. therefore, to V our
men by something more than tho ordi-
nary parapet. To give additional pro-
lection, sand-bags. bullct-proof, were
placed along the tops of the parapets.
tar enough apart to make loopholes for
musketry. On top OF these, logs were
put. By these means the men were
enabled to walk about erect when off
duty, without fear of annoyance from
sharp-shooters. The enemy used in
their defense explosive musket-balls,
thinking, 10 doubt. that, bursting over
q men in the trenches. they would do
some execution. l do not remember a
single case where a man was injured
by q piece of one of these shells. When
they were hit, and the ball exploded,
the wound was terrible. In these cases
solid ball would have hit as well.
Their use is barbarous. because they
produce increased suffering without
any corresponding advantage to those
using them. q
The enemy could not resort to our
method 10 protect their men, because
we had an inexnaustible supply of I'M
munition to draw upon, and used it
freely. Splintcrs from the timber would
have made havoc among the men be-
hind.
There were no mortars with the be-
siegers. except those that the navy had
in front OF the city; but wooden ones
were made by taking logs OF the tough
est wood that could be found, boring
them out for six or twelve FOUNDER
shells, and binding them with strong
iron bands. These answered as COG
horns, and shells were successfully
thrown from them into the trenches Of
the enemy.
The labor of building the batteries
and Of intrenching was largely done by
the pioneers, assisted by negroes who
exne within our lines and vino were
paid for their work; but details from
the line had often to be. made. The
WORK was pushed forward As rapidly as
possible, and when an advanced posi-
kon was secured and covered from ths
