NefSatlOu upon uldtlcTS buSSeSIeu Uy the remarkable adventures of the young man, and the name of his father, which led to some reminis- cences on the part of the Captain. It is needless to say that this interview, of almost an hour, strengthened and warmed the attachment that the ardent and impulsive old sailor had conceived for his gallant young guest. He was, in fact, prepared to ''grapple him to his soul with hooks of steel"
 The cook now sent one of the negroes down with an appetizing sup per, to which the Captain and his friend did full justice. They had, in fact, eaten nothing since the early breakfast of that morning. The sun had set, and the soft twilight of the tropics that preccdes the moons rising prevailed, when these two left the cabin for the deck.
 Each had loaded revolver in his breast-pocket. They had held very brief conference over the situation of affairs on the vessel, and were pre- pared to spend the night on deck. The mate soon came down and ate hearty supper from what was un- touched by the others. Then he, too. returned to the deck.
 And now occurred a singular inci- | dent, The cabin was vacant for ten minutes before the cooks assistant came down to clear away the leavings. In this interval the concealed watcher emerged from the cuddy, snatched bread, meat and cakes from the table, rolled them in a large cloth, and quit ted the cabin. Ascending the stairs till his eyes were on level with the lcck. he pecred out. Dim figures could be seen, both fore and aft; but the light was faint; he was not per- ceivcd. He quietly skulkcd along the starboard side, and disappeared some where forward.
 Yet one thing further we must re- cord that occurred in the cabin before the Captain and his guest left it, before MT. Hardy came down. and before Louis Hunter had fitted like an uneasy spirit away.
 The Captain had his hand on the knob of the door. with his cap in the other hand, when curious hesitation on the part of Crawford arrested his steps.
 He looked inquiringly at him.
 You wanted the whole truth" said the young man?
 "Well?"
 "You are treating me nobly, sir;
 am deeply affected by it. feel tha

 "That was nasty remark. Louis. You remember how you had angered me? Let us think no more of 1t. Here's my hand, nephew"
 Louis took the offered hand, but re- leased it immediately without grasp. -"Now go back to the cabin." the Captain said, half coaxingly.

BLOOMFIELD EOR THE SENATE.


II With pleasure that we, in tins
issue, announce MIR. ii. Bloomfield,
of this county, as a Candidate for
the Office Of Senator for this Sena-
torial district, subject 10 the action
of the Senatorial Convention.
Mr.. Bloomfield is not n loud or
noisy man, and yet few Of our pub
lie men are better or more tavora-
bly, known along the Gulf Coast
He began the practice Of law in
Harrison county, where he spent
the larger portion Of his boyhood
days, about ten years ago IN part
nerst.ip with Col. Roderick Seal.
He removed 10 this county a few
years arterward, continuing the
firm of Seal d Bloomfield. He Is
thoroughly identified with the
Coast, is intelligent, honorable and
attentive 10 business. He has
never before asked for office, but
has always been an earnest, Ell.
thusiastic and working Democrat.
He is conservative in his views,
and is given to reasoning from
cause TO effect, without prejudice
or bias, in all matters Of public
interest.
We commend Mr.. Bloomfield 10
the Democrats of this district as
the candidate of Jackson county,
believing that with such a man the
district will accord 10 us the right
Vi naming the candidate, as turn
about is far play.

SOUTH MISSISSIPPI ANDTHEsTATE
TICKET.

South Mississippi has a fail
chance Of getting recognition and
furnishing n Democratic nominee
on the Statelicket. The prospects
of Mr.. NJ. N. Evans, for Lieutenant
Governor are quite flattering. The
position he asks Ia not a very active
one, it is true, but quite an honora-
bic one, and will give us an influ-
entail representative at the State
Capital at an important time, viz /:
During the session of the Legisla.
ture. Jackson county should be
proud to furnish The only represent
alive from South Mississippi on the
State ticket, and her citizens should
leave nothing undone TO the end
that such shall be the case. We
believe Mr.. Evans will be the nom
lnee, as he has now the best en-
dorsement of any candidate IN the
field, but by all means he should
have the rousing and earnest en-.
dorsement and support of every
southern county, and especially
his own county. We are afraid
our people are moi fully sensible Of
the importance of such action. We
owe it not only 10 Mr.. Evans, but
to ourselves, to manifest a zeaIons
interest in the matter of his nomi-
nation. Patriotism is one of The no.
blest attributes of citizenship,
while seIfishness is to the mennest.

the position OF the Democratic
candidate for Lieutenant-Governor
