LosTIN THE DEsERT.-Jack Nancy,
proprietor of the Oasis Saloon, at this
place, returned from San Antonio and
Cloverdale last Sunday. On his way
out he found a man named Tim Null
len, who mad been working in the
mines at Candelaria, on the desert,
about 8 or 10 miles from Cloverdale,
in an unconscious and diving condi-
ton. 1t appears that Mullen had
started TO walk from Candelaria to
Austin, where he has a family, and ran
out Of water in the hot desert. He
became bewildersd and wandered
about for two days and half, using
his own urine to slake the torture of
his thirst, until he had lain down to
die when Mr.. Nancy, who was riding
that way. proyidentially discovered
him, and with the aid of his cantsen
of water and nursing until after night,
fall was enabled to get the man into
Cloverdale, where he was fully resus-
citated from the effects of his terrible
experience. -Can. True Fissure, LIST.

COUNTING THE |. S. MoNEY.-In
the United States sub Treasury in
San Francisco there are at present 20
men employed in counting the silver
coin, ofwhich there is understood to
be about S2s,000,000. They have
been at work since the Isl, and as
about Sl.0o0,00o per day IS counted it
will probably take until the end Of
the month to complete the job. There
will then remain 100000 in gold
to be counted, which will consume
from two to four weeks longer.

A ROMANCE ~ Real LrFE.-Five
years ago remarkably bright and
pretty girl Of l : worked n San Fran~
cisco laundry. The son of wealthy
parents fell in love with her. She re-
turned the passion, but said she would
not marry him, as he wished, because
she was unedneated and course Then
he offered To ssad her away to school.
She accepted the offer. During the
ensuing four years she was in a Mon
treal convent, very apt and studious.
The training wrought all the change
that was desirable, and the wedding
took place with long tour in Eu-
rope afterward. The couple returned
to San Francisco lately To show that
she had neither forgotten nor was
ashamed Of her former employment,
the bride gave grand supper to those
of her old companions who could be
brought together Exchange.
1t is certainly romantic, extraordin-
airy, or something Of that sort, for as a
rule girls educated at the expense OF
some softly, with view to matrimony,
usually take kindly to some other fell

THE UNFINISHED CRUISERS
the time of the failure of John Roach,
the Navy Ring contractor, three cruis-
ers, the Atlanta, Chicago and Boston,
were being built in his yards for the
Government. There was $500 900 to
be paid to the contractor upon the
completion of the vessels, the balance
of the contract price having hitherto
been paid. The Secretary of the Navy
intended to have the vessels com pleted
in the navy yards, but an investigation
of the condition of the yards showed
that costly changes would have to be
made in them to do this, and the idea
was abandoned. Now, a compromise
has been effected between the Navy
Department and the assignees of Mr..
Roach, by which the Roach ship yards
will be placed under the control of the
Government until the cruisers are fin
ished. If the expense of completing
them exceeds the 100000 of the con-
tract price yet unpaid Mr. Roach's
bondsmen are to be held responsible
for the extra cost. The assignees are
to furnish the labor, material and tools
for completing the vessels, and receive
the full contract price for each and
all of them.

Boston Capital and the Slave Trade.


Very few of the present generation
are aware Of the fact that Boston capi4
tai and Boston merchants were, not
many years ago, directly or indirectly
Interested IN the African slave trade.
The recent death Of a prominent mer-
chant Of this city at an advanced age
recalls to my mind Sc yeral circum-
stances Of which | was either person
ally cognizant or familiar with. The
slave trade, in my younger days, was
regarded the same as piracy on the
high seas. remember with what
sort Of awe the boys on Beacon Hill
used to regard the great brick man
sion Of Nine. Gibbs. with its beautis
full grounds which used to extend back
from Mount Vernon street to Pinck-
ney street. The awe consisted in the
knowledge Of the fact that Gibbs, a
Newport man, had accumulated his
immense fortune in the slave trade, at
the time Newport was recognized as
the center of this then Legitimate
traffic.
Years afterwards, when I became a
clerk in a large shipping house on one
OF the principal wharyes, my eyes were
openea to great many things not
dreamed of in the philosophy of the
masses, particularly that class of citi-
zens who were loud in their denuncia-
tons of slavery as an institution, and
as it then existed under the Constitu-
ton. | saw many mysterious things
and many mysterious eargoes In con
nection with the trade between the
coasts Of Africa and South America.
saw fortunes male in single voyages
which could not have resulted from
the profits Of legitimate trade. But
thc reported sudden rise in foreign
markets on "wool and ivory (which
embodied the truth but did not ex-
press the whole satisfactorily
answered all curious questions. Vese
sells were frequently wrecked, or re-
ported foundered a sea, but the cap
tains were always fortunate enough to
save the gold and silver, the proceeds
of their outward trading. Some suss
picious persons would think, if they
did not express the thought, that Eng
lish cruisers had more to do with the
wreck or the laundering than the
elements.
The merchant whose death has been
alluded TO was the last Of the merchants
Of Boston, Marblehead, Salem and
Gloucester who were suspected. |
think could name at least half score,
and upon 40 one Of them did the curse
of retribution fall. II they did not all
die in the odor Of sanctity, they all left
great fortunes, which was more acs
ceptable to tier heirs Some of them
were bold to rashness. | recall one
merchant who was brought up in the
dry goods commission business, and at
one time was partner in large house,
who run fearful risks, embroidered by
his high standing and his invariable
success; but detection was on his
track at last. and discovery seemed
almost inevitable Probably this con-
vction FASTENED his death, and death
alone saved his name from obloQuy.
There IS no one living now who can
be effected by this statement of mine,
and, therefore | give it. Yet there are
hundreds living in luxury and ease
upon wealth originally gained by this
most inhuman traffic. Boston Corr.
