Considerably "MiNeu.'

"You newspaper correspondents
make queer mistakes sometimes" SAID
ayoung British officer to me as we sat
in front of the cantonment at a little
border outpost among the mountains
of southern Afghanistan. "1ou re-
member that man who was out here
the other day, during this last war,
hearing somebody talk OF the wounded
men being picked up by doolie" (anl-
bulance litter), "and he took it for some
kind of wild beast, and began his next
letter with thrilling account Of the
ferocious doolie swooping down upon
the battlefield and carrying off the
wounded?'
"Well, I did nearly as bad myself
last month";" rejoined /, Gina letter to
the New York Times, describing my
visit to the ruins of Ambher, near } -
Door, in western India. / had meant
to put 4 had previously written to the
British Resident for an elephant, and
on reaching the city gate found the
great brute all ready But by some
mischance I omitted the words, for an
elephant,' and the sentence ran thus,
L hod previously written to the British
Reside.:t, and on reaching the city gate
found the great brute all ready"
"Not so bad, though" laughed my
companion, ";,s the way the English
papers mixed up the capers Of stray
dog with the presentation of a testi-
monial to our head-mastcr just before
I left school: DR.. c. returned
thanks for the testimonial, and then
proceeded to play Il series of pranks
which only such a mischievous dog
could haze imagined. He ran furiously
down the main street, barking and
swapping at every one whom he met,
till some frolicSomc boys got hold Of
him and tied a tin pan to his tail, with
which ceremony the presentation
ended
"Well, can beat even that" said l.
"What do you say to this as the result
of mixing an account of cutting up 4
pig by machinery with the presenting
ola god-headed cane to an English
professor? His friends explained the
object of their visit, and presented him
with a handsome gold-headed butcher,
who seized him by the tail, cut his
| throat dcXtcrously, and plunged his
| carcass into the boiling water. He then
observed that ON such an occasion his
| feelings overcame him, and he could
! but family express his gratitude, the
wav in which SO huge u beast was cut
10 pieces being truly admirable. AS the
| doctor ended, the machine seized him,
and in Il tricc he was chopped up and
worked into delicious sausagcs. His
| friends will long remember this graft
fving event. The best bits may still be
had for tenpcncc per pound, and all
who have profted by his lectures must
rejoice that he has been so handsomely

Some of the sailors died and num-
Der We're i'll, so that the bark was very
short handed when she arrived at Rio

there paid no attention to his signals
for some days and the Aquidneck
swung at anchor off the quarantine

Finally one Of the sailors offered togo
ashore with his sick comrades. They
were put into 4 boat, and the brave

THE STORY OF CAPT SLCCCM.

Capt Joshua Slocum, commander
and owner of the bark Aquidneck, of
326 tons burden, left Baltimore little
less than two years ago bound for Bue-
nos Ayres. His wife and two sons were
on board with him, and their sub
seauent trials and the final loss of the
vessel at the entrance of Rio Grande
do Sui harbor, make a tale which Rider
Haggard would grasp with pleasure.
The stoical Indifference Of Capt Slocurn
to his hardship, his independent spirit
and determination to bring his family
home at his own expense, and the for
titude of his wife, who is ''every inch
sailor" add zest to the story.
When the Aquidneck reached Bue-
nos Ayres, in the Rio de la Plata River
Capt Slocun secured cargo and sailed
FOR Rio de Janeiro. But cholera was
prevalent in the Argentine Republic
and every Brazilian port was quaran-
tined against vessels from Argentine
ports So Capt Slocum perforce sailed
back to the "Plata" and waited several
weary months for the quarantine to be
raised. He would have discharged his
vessel, but other vessels were there
ready to take the cargo, so he waited.
At last, during the latter part Of May,
1887 the news came that vessels could
enter Rio, and the Aquidneck, with
Others got under weigh. He arrived at
Rio on JuneS but the health ''visiten
did not come out until the next morn
ing, when Capt Slocum was told that
the quarantine against the Argentine
Republic was again in force, and that
if he did not speedily clear out they
would fire upon his vessel. He went
back to Buenos Ayres, where he
dumped his cargo on the owners
wharf, and told him to go to ''Bally-
hack OR some other place not laid
down on pilot charts.
Capt Slocum then shipped i cargo
for Rio Grande do Sui, but on the way
thither smallpox broke out among the

NV Dear Captain have to thank
you for your kind efforts to get up to
town yesterday. It was not to be, for
the reoson that smallpox is prevalent
at ports in the West Indies where we
did not touch. Also in San Francisco
and Portland, Oregon, they have the
scourge. Notwithstanding all this we
have a .iclean bill of health" not hav-
ing touched at San Francisco or Port

of this fact we were about to be ad
mitted to pratique, when 10 .the officer
espied cocoanut, one of the six re-
manning nuts that was part of our pro-
visions. Fruit, it seems, may not pass

We have had a very pleasant voyage,

one. We have received great hospital

To travel from Rio Grande do Sui to
Washington, D. c., distance ofnearly
4,500 miles in a canoe only thirty feet
long, with woman and two children
is an undertaking that the most eX-
perierced and stout-hearted mariner
would hesitate to attempt. Yet this IS
what Capt. Joshua Slocum Of the
wrecked bark Aquidneck, undertook
to do about four months ago, and judg-
ing by bis success 50 far he will soon be
at his journeys end. He was seen by
Capt Hubbard, of the Steamer Planter,
at Georgetown, on Thursday, so that
his tiny craft andher ocean-tossed oc-
cupants are by this time less than.3co
miles from their destination.
TRYING TO GO INTO GEORGETOWN.
Capt Hubbard reached Charleston
Yesterday afternoon with the steamer
Planter and was Immediately called
upon by Reporter for The News and
Courier, to whom he related how
he had happened to fall in with
the shipwrecked captain. On his
way into Georgetown harbor, last
Thursday, he righted off Capt Romain
what appeared to be Chinese Junk.
Signals for towage being made, the
strange craft was given aline and towed
by the Planter up to he quarantine
station at North Island. 1t was Capt
Slocum's idea to put into Georgetown
for provisions, but the quarantine Off
Ger would not permit him to 60 upt
the city. Capt Hubbard, however,
very kindly furnished him with some
supplies from the Planter, and yester-
day morning the dauntless captain re-
srmed his voyage after sending Capt
Hubbard a photograph of his remark
able little vessel, which he has chris
tened the .'Liberdade," and letter of
thanks. The photograph OF the vessel
was taken at Pernambuco and can now
be seen in the counting room Of The
News and Courier.

HOLLOW PRETENSIS EN-.
POSED.

In the debate on the Chinese Elk
clusion bill in The Senate on Tues
day, Senator Morgan, of Alabama,
in a speech OF several hours. en-
dcavored to show that the Repub-
lican party was responsible for tie
presence of the Chinese in the
United States.
This charge gave Senator Stew
art a splendid opening, and he re-
piled in a way that not only dis
proved The charges, but showed
that the Democratic party was re-
sponsible for the presence OF the
Chinese in the United States. He
quoted largely from the Congress
ional Record in support OF his claim
and brought facts to light which
made the Democratic members OF
the Senate sQuirm in their seats.
Among other facts he showed the
following:
That in the early days Of Cali
sornia the leading members OF the
Democratic party openly advocated
the appropriation OF State money to
import Chinese laborers to reclaim
the swamp lands OF California.
This scheme was opposed and
beaten by the Republicans.
That the original Chinese treaty
contained clause providing for the
naturalization of the Chinese, and
that it was heated on motion of
Congess, a Republican Senator
from California.
At public banquet given in San
Francisco to,the Chinese Embassy
returning from Washington after
the ratification OF the Chinese
treaty, III. II. Haight, the Demo-
cratic Governor of California, pre-.
sided.
In tho great Chinese debate in
the Senate, in 1870, Senator Thur
man-Democratic candidate for the
Vice-Presidency - attempted to
choke off debate and allow the Chi
ness to becone naturalized citizens
of the United States.
A Republican Senator beat Thur
mans bushwhacking tactics, and
would not allow the naturalization
Of Chinese.
Stewart closed by saying that it
was a poor time to make political
capital out of the past record OF the
Chinese question, and at the pres
ent time he felt satisfied that both
Republicans and Democrats saw
the evil attending the presence OF
the Chinese here, and were all
against a continuance OF the Chi
nese invasion.
Senator Morgan made no capital
for his party by his speech, and
Stewards reply was complete re-
huke.
