with whirling clouds, before the wind
! struck US; the white surface of the sea,
cieanly lined ike the surf upon beach,
was plainly seen by US, even when the
water all around was still nnruffied:
and then. with prolonged and peal
ing yell, the gale and the spray It was
! lashIng out of the sea were upon Us. In
! a moment our decks were soaking
the masts creaked. and every shrOud
and stay sung to the sudden, mighty
strain; the vessel staggered and reeled
stopped, as heavy swell rolled I'M
| der her bows and threw her all aslant
against the hurricane, which screeched
and howled through the rigging, and
:hen fled forward under the yards,
! which had squared themselves as the
starboard braces were slackened.
1t was lucky for the GrOsvenor that
the gale struck her astern. So great
was its fury that, had it taken her
aback, l doubt if she would have
righted.
The wind was blowing true from the
south, and We were bowling before it
due north, losing as much ground every
five minutes as had tax en- US an hour to
get during the day.
The sea now began to rise, and it
was strange to watch it. First it
boiled in short waves, which the wind
shattered and blew fiat. But other
waves rose, too solid for the wind to
level; they increased in bulk as they
ran. and broke in coils of spray, while
fresh and larger waves succeeded, and
the ship began to pitch quickly in the
young sea.
The wonderful violence of the wind
could not well be appreciated by Us
who were running before it; but when
the crew manned the braces and the
helm was put to starbOard, it seemed
as if the wind would blow the ship out
of the water. She came to slowly,
laying her main-decll level with the
sea, and the screeching of the wind
was diaboiical and absolutely terrify-
ing to listen to. With the weather.
leeches just lifting, she was still well
away from her course, and her prog
ress under all three top-sa:ls was all
lceway.
But soon saw that she could not
carry two of the three top-sails, owing
10 lHc tremendous sudden pressure put
upon the masts by her lurches to wind
ward; and, sure enough Duckling,
(who had turned out along with ali
hands when the gale had first struck
the ship roared through a speaking
trumpet to clew up and furl the fore
and mizzen top-sails.
1t took all hands to deal with each
sail separately. and L helped to stow
the foretop-sail.
The ship was now as snug as we
could make her, hove to under close
reefed maintop-sail and foretop-mast
staysail, riding tolerably well, though,
to be sure, the wind had not yet had
time to raise much of a sea. The crow
were tagged by their heavy work, and
the captain ordered the steward to
serve out a lot OF grog apiece to them,
more out Of policy than pity, l think,
as he would remember what was in
their minds respecting their provisions,
and how the ships safety depended on
their obedience.

A Notable OratoricaI EFFORT and Its Not
Very Gratifying Results.
When Mr. Jenkins went to his bed
room at half-past one. 1t was with tn
determination of going to sleep, and
with another determination that he
would not be interviewed by Mrs. Jen,
kinS. So, as soon as he had entered
the door and deposited his lamp upon
the dressing liable, he commenced his
speech:
Il locked the front-door. 1 put the
chain on. pulled the key out little
bit. The dog is inside. Iput the Kit

and will now put out the light. -
Mr.. jenkins felt that he had hedged
against all inquiry, and triumphant
smile was upon his face as he took
hold of the gas-check, and sighted a
line for the bed, when he was earth
quaked by a ringing laugh, and the
query from Mrs. jenkins:
why didn' you take of your hat?"

"Hard times" Is the question which
seems to be the problem of American
politics. As a matter OF fact, no per-
son should, in civilized life, lack the
necessaries of living and the enjoy
ment of the very short time which he
or she will cucumber the land. To
become a member of society, we have
to relinquish certain inherent rights
for the common veal, and by thus
waving such rights, have others IN
common with the other component
parts Of society. If we give up the
land which, of right, was ours to So
ciety generally, then we should re-
ceive certain benefits in lieu thereof.
So far, so good; but, to day, in Amer

lea, we are not satisfied with the nee
essaries Of life, but must, and will,
have its Injuries. Take, for example,
a man earning, say, So to $50 per
month. TO live, be must play the
"dude," his wife must make tour Of
Europe, or at least rusticate during
the heated term. Did our mothers
require such? Did theirs? No. Then
why should we? Again, they must
visit or become members Of dancing
clubs, have visiting cards, aud, of
course, visiting dresses; and if there
are children, they must be dressed in
fashion.
Is this possible? Legitimately, no!
and honestly we say, it cannot be.
Take figures for it: Rent, $50; SER
want (hired help, Sl4; food and fuel,
$40; clothing, 500; total, $94. How
much does this allow for carriage
hire, travelling aud perfumery, leave
alone schooling, medicines, etc, and
yet for the most trihing sickness a
doctor is called in. JeweIry and silks,
furs, etc., are used in abundance
What is the result? Ruin.
Really, there are no "hard times"
in this glorious land of liberty, except
such as we choose to make ourselves.
One good dress of $50 used to suffice
our mothers; why should it not our
wives? Because we must be bon ton.
Those occupying the highest positions
in the worlds history were brought
up comfortably on much less per
month than the cost of one lady's
not woman's) dress, nowadays.
Now, we like to see lady we'll
dressed, not over dressed. Imagine a
dress, etc, costing say 5000, on the
wife of man getting 800 per month,
with family! What does this mean ?
A standing off Of every grocer OF
butcher bill presented, and cry of
"hard times" when from the very ma

''respectability," but, forsooth, mar.

Therefore we say: If you wish to

WHAT WE NEED.

The TIMES holds that one of the
greatest needs of the country is
that the system of protection which
has been built up and fostered by the
Republican party for twenty five years
be maintained in all its integrity, so
that our industries may be systemat-
ieally developed, our commerce ex-
tended, labor receive it's just compen-
sation, and capital find remunerative
employment; and it demands that
the system under which the wealth of
this country has been more than
trebled in a single generation, and
which affords the fairest and most
liberal protection to our agricultural
as we'll as our manufacturing interests,
and all individuals employed in con-
nection Herewith, be also extended
to our commerce by the establishment
of commercial marine, to the end
that we may diversity industry, find
new fields for our crowded ranks of
labor, make use of the products of the
forest, mine and mill in building our
own ships, and provide for the ma
TONS defense and vindicate it's honor
by training body of men for service
upon the seas, furnishing ships that
car be transferred to the service of
the government in case of need, and
securing the establishment of ship
yards and machinery works that will
enable us as a nation to construct,
equip and float navy that can meet
the demands of modern naval war
fare.
Had this course been continued by
the Democratic administration, the
untold millions of loss to the nation
by the alarming shrinkage Of values
for the past two years would not have
occurred, tire millions of idle capital
to-day locked up in the vaults of the
government, as well as those Of corpo-
rations and individuals, would have
continued to be invested in the de-
velopment of the inc xhaustible re.
sources of the country, and labor
would to day be receiving a just re-
ward for its services. This great
shrinkage in values caused by at
tempted unwise legislation and the
lack of wise legislation on the two
great and important subjects, to-wit
protection of our Industries and the
coinage of silver, has almost parayzec
our inter commerce, and has so Grip
pied our industries as to bring com
mon labor down almost to the stand
ard of foreign pauper labor, ant
caused the most gigantic labor strikes
ever known in this or any other coun
try.
We directly trace all this to tn,
action Of the Democratic party il
Congress and the attitude which tn,
President and his Cabinet assum,
toward these two important questions
We shall have to endure this ruinou
state of affairs for two years more
when the Republican party will b,
able to overthrow this dangerou
power now exercised against the in
terests of the great producing North
west by electing President and ,
Congress whose doctrines and sympa
thies are with US, and who will estab
lish foreign policy that will make u.
stand respected by all the nations o
the earth, and home policy that viii
protect our leading industries so tina
labor will receive just compensation
for its services.
