and every man Was listening lntently
TO catch the first suspicious sound,
when all of a sudden there was a ter
rible crash, followed by shouts and
shrieks. There was another crash,
more shouts, and then a splash in the
water as if an iceberg had rolled over.
In minute or two we got a swell
which lifted the brig like cork and
kept her dancing for three or four
minutes. When it subs1ded the Cap
tain and mate agreed it had been
caused by a whale preaching. Both
had sailed In whaling ships, and they
asserted that nothing else could have
caused the connection.
From midniL hit until dawn every
man stood at his post. When day
light came we saw pirate brig about
two miles of. Between the two
vessels was a lot of wreck stuff, which
the captain glass made out to be the
shattered remnants OF several small
boats. Only four men could be OBJ
served aboard the brig, and as the
Captain was watching them they got
into a fight. One was killed, one ran
below, and the two men left on deck
got a white cloth from the cabin and
sent it alott in place of flag.
sln about half an hour we got the
wind and ran down to her and lower
ed boat and went abroad. / went
IN the boat, and followed the mate on
deck, where we were welcomed by two
men who spoke English. It was a
queer case, as you will agree. One of
the men was an Englishman, the sole
survivor OF an English vessel wrecked
on the Barbary coast five years be-
fore, The other was an American,
who had deserted his ship at the Cape
Verde Islands three years previously,
and while making a voyage in a coast
er had been captured and spared by
the vessel he was now on. The dead
man and the one below were native
Algerines, as were most OF the briggs
crew. On the previous night,
when the wind went down,
they got out their boat and towed the
brig about a mile. The entire crew,
with the exception OF the four men,
then armed thenls elves, and the boats
set off to attack us. What followed
could be pretty safely guessed at. The
four boats were in company when the
whale struck at least one of them as
he came up. He must have thrown
this boat many feet into the air. He
might have fallen upon the others or
shattered them with a rap OF his.
f1ukes, but that he destroyed them the
evidence was before us. Not man
had escaped, and, instead OF being
captured and madeto walk the plank,
as we had reason to expect, we had
turned aboutand captured the pratt
cal craft without firing shot. She
was a fine prize, can tell you, hav.-
ing $4,000 worth of plumber aboard,
besides being a better vessel than our
own. We carried her down to Sierra
Leone, where she was delivered over
and passed upon, and every one of us
got a comfortable lump of prize mon.

English brig which had been captured
five years before under Cape Blanco,
and recorded as lost in gale.''

And paint such scenes OF happy days
AS well thou knowest always rush
At gentlest call before my gaze;
And paint them in no fading hue,
But let the colors be SO bright
That, should my waking hours be few,
I'll see them through the long still night
For when I lay me down to sleep.

JUSTICE HARLAN referred with dignity and
feeling to the fact that counsel for the de-
fonda nts had appealed strongly to the sympa-
thy of the court. Such an appeal, he said
was entirely proper for counsel to make, and
was in the line of their duty. But the court
also had duty to perform, and it was one
that did not admit of sympathy. If he should
fail to declare the law according to his oath
and conscience, he would be guilty of crime
not less fragrant than that the defendants
were charged with. The trainers of the law
did not provide for the exercise Of sympathy
in its Interpretation.

cious argument and influence, and the State
made a laughingstock Of 1t is beautiful
spectacle to see thirty grown-up men, of good
sense and sound Judgment, sitting in a ma
tional convention with their eyes shut and
their mouths open. ready to take what the
Lord will send them. 'sThe blunder of 1884
must not be repeated" If Indiana wants the
presidential candidate and the party thinks it
has a man worthy the honor, il raust be able
to make up its own mind, and to endeavor to
influence other States to its way of thinking.
The way to get the presidential candidate for
Indiana is to have thirty votes in the conven-
ition for the man of the party's choice. and to
work for him by all legitimate and honorable
methods

The three national political Conventions of
the year will meet within the same fortnight,
and Chicago, Indianapolis and st. Louis will
doubtless vie with each other in do
ing the honors for their distinguished
guests The rivalry between the first
and. the last, especially. will be in
tensiied by these notable events. It is
a curious fact, also, that the prevailing local
sympathy in each case will be with the party
meeting in convention. Chicago ordinarily is
almost evenly divided on political lines; but
the great proportion of its intelligent senti-
ment is with the Republican party while ST.
Louis is firmly welded 70 Democratic idols,
and the advanced temperance sentiment is
probably stronger in Indianas capital than in
any other large city of the West. Under
these circumstances, everybody ought to be
happy. Telegraph.
1t is reading such articles as the above
in the Eastern press that causes our bosom
to swell with admiration, and we fall down in
proper spirit of worship and veneration for
the great men who edit great newspapers east
Of the Alleghenies. We believe the party
whose convention is too meet in Indianapolis
cast 80 votes out of total of q, 900 in this
city last October. Is that what the Telegraph
calls "a prevailing local sympathy with the
party meeting in convention7"

MANAGER LOCKE can have the consolation,
such as it is, of knowing that the German
grand opera has been financial failure also,
in spite of the fact that circumstances have
apparently been favorable to success. The
company has been in New York throughout
the season. save one week spent at Philadel-
phia, and has continued to attract large audi
ences, but the expenses have steadily over
balanced the receipts. The lesson of these
failures is not SO much, as Mr.. Locke
concludes, that the public does not care for
grand opera, since crowded houses prove, at
least, that people are willing to listen to it,
but is rather that it is too expensive luxury
for managers to handle. When operate sala-
riss are cut down to reasonable basis, and
foreign singers learn to expect only the
moderate remuneration in America which they
are glad to accept in Europe, the risk of pro-
ducing grand opera here will be greatly
lessened

This puts qnietus forever on any attempt to
revive the false and indecent attacks on the
district judge.
Thus after an eminently judicial and ex-
haustive review Of the case, Justice Harlan
reaches the conclusion that there was no error
in any of the points presented This decision
practically settles the case. The legal ques-
tions involved having been passed upon by
Judge Woods and Justice Harlan, there is
nothing left even for the full bench of the
Supreme Court but to follow them. This
will undoubtedly be the result if by any
means the case is brought before the full
bench. The case is virtually settled. and the
law is indicated.

The scene during the delivery of Justice
Harlan's opinion was impressive. The at
mosphere of the United States Court. always
solemn, was rendered unusually so by the
gravity of the case and the general anxiety
concerning the decision. The presence of a
justice of the Supreme Court and his COM
manding appearance and judicial manner
gave additional dignity to the occasion. His
delivery of the opinion was earnest, simple
and strong, in perfect harmony with the occa-
sion and with the popular conception of a
great judge. The attendance of spectators
was very large, and they listened intently to
the delivery of the opinion, nearly two hours.
