Catching q SlaYcr.

Letters from the East Indian sta
lions Giv1 particulars of an impor-
tant capture OF slave dhow made u
few weeks ago by her Majesty's
steamer Reindeer. One of her boats
III charge Of IL petty officer was pro
ceeding into Chakichaki Bay, in the
Island Of Pemba, when II dhow was
observed making for>the inner har-
Dor. The officer Immediately board
eel her and was surprised to find that
although the dhOw was small one u
large number of slaves were packed
into her like helrings in u barrel; SO
crowded, i'll fact, was the craft that
the officer was unable to count the
slaves accurately, and he ut once tow
eel tho dhOw toward the Reindeer.
Lhe slaves and crew were transferred
to her Majesty's steamer Pigeon and
the dhoW was sent to Bombay, where
she was handed over to the court It
1t was then discovered that the YES
sci had on board no fewer than 124
slaves. The inquiry before the prize
court elected the information that
the dhow left Lindi with the
slaves on board, the master having
Deeh PROMISED lO rupees q head for

Child Life on CanaI-Boats,

One of the curiositics of life displayed
along the waterfront of this city, saws
the N. Y. Times, is the way children
are reared in absolute safety aboard
canal-boats. Any person who takes
tho trouble to visit Coentics slip or tho
neighboring docks where canal-boats
lay up can sec every day the common
sight of group Of toddling children
playing on the open decks of the low
bulWarkcd boats, but he never hears of
one falling overheard.
On one canal-boat, the Bctsey Ann
of Whitehall, that lay In Cocntics slip
the other day, was noticed novel ar
rangemcnt for keeping the little ones
within the bounds of safety. On the
aftcr-deck regular playground had
been fenced off for the Youngsters by
building high pickct-fcncc, over
which they could not climb. This had
a swinging gate secured by hasp, sta
pie, and paddock. Inside Of this in
closure were four children, who made
the air ring with their shouts, telling of
their unalloycd happiness and content
mcnt with the arrangement. On an
other boat, little way distant in tho
same slip, was another queer arrange
mont to keep the little tots from fall
ing overheard. In the center Of the
deck was fastened stout ring-bolt, to
which were fastened three stout but
small ropes. At the end Of each rope
was stout leather belt bucklcd about
the waist of a rugged, sun-burncd
youngStcr. The ropes were just long
enough to prevent the childrcm
reaching the edge of the deck, but
were not too short to allow them am
pie room to play in. The children
seemed happy, too, and were not dis
tured particle by their tethcr.
On nearly all ;@G boats the children
are allowed to roam about the deck at
will, both while coming down the river
in tow and while tied up to the dock.
Many of them are born aboard the
boats. There they grow up and in
many cases marry, selecting thciI
mates from aboard other boats and
Immediately taking up the life followed
by their parents.
The total value of property in Mass
aehnsotts has increased 81 per cent
since 1880.

Hold On.

Possibly, the best policy inaugural
ted by the Alliance the first year
was taught i'll economy of living and
homemade supplies. Apprehension
has already been expressed that far
mCrS Will, III Il measure, abandon this
policy during the coming year It is
said farmers have lost large uuanti-
ties of meat made on the farm, after
the hogs had consumed an unusual
amount of the unusual supply of
corn, and that many who had almost
Ill hand IL full supply, are now, after
heavy expense, just where they have
all the time been--withOut the sup
plies and without the money to
buy.
Again, it is said that the unusual
purchase of mules, Oh cotton obliea-
tiOns for the fall, will compel the
growing Of cotton to the exclusion
OF food crops to meet these obHga-
tons.
l cannot believe that farmers will,
THIS early, abandon a policy that
their Judgment and experience de
clare to be the best to pursue. 1t
must be remembered that this has
been an unusual winter, and the
causes for failure, in the loss of meat
and waste of corn, may not occur
again in decade. As to the obhga-
tons for stock, farmers have found it
IS ulWlSc to incur one debt to pay
another. They will not pursue the
plan OF buying bread and meat to
help them to buy mules. The wisdom
OF this policy has long since been eX
plOded.
The true theory, economy and
homemade supplies, will make the
basis OF our best success; to this we
must adhere. No promise Of reward
i'll the possible speculative prices for
cotton, based upon small crop, to
come from reduced area, should
tempt any farmer with it's uncertain
ties. Year after year we have built
upon these hopes to our hurt, and
now that the solution is begun, we
must hold Oh until it is complete.
1t is true, the meat supply, after
grown, was cut off by disaster and
the corn destroyed after it was hous-
ed, but such misfOrtunes come to all
crops and to all business. They are
to be charged to the account of profit
and loss and well guarded against in
the future.
Stick to the policy SO successfully
naugurated; given an honest, fair
trial to the remedy universally insis-
ted upon and already adopted, and
we will have far more hope of success
than III the hmtful policy that has
uniformly crippled our cfforts.-W.

n Good DAYS Work,

Weakness OF itself is not disease.
1t is, however, Il most distrcSsful
symptom. Alas! how many wearily
drag themselves about, every effort
giving them distress, existing without
any Of the pleasuablc sensations OF
robust health. Are you in this con-
dition? Why? There is no excuse
for feeling mean and miserable. Re
move the cause Of your distress,
which is undoubtedly is q state OF
blood iInpurity and disordered sys-
tenn. How! Why, by doing as others
have done.

neighbor living near by. While there
she and Mrs. Walls saw negro go
ing up the railroad toward Thomp-
sons mill, which is not very far off,
but thought nothing of it, as it is u
common thing to see negroes going
to and from tha1mill; but shortly after
the negro passed. the house he sud
denly disappeared and the ladies
could not account for his sudden dis
appearance, for the road to tho mill
was plain, and they knew he csRld
not have gotten fhero m such a short
time. TE'G cupONlH became excited
and caused them to look around to
see if they could not find out what
had become of him.
They did not look long before they
| discovered the negro down on the
ground rolling, log-hkc, toward the
house us fast as he could. He was
1 trying to get to the house and not let
B anybody know it, and there is no
I doubt but that the negro knew that
Mr. Walls was off at work and thought
he could take advantage of his alb
1 senco and commit some deprcdations.
Mrs. Walls and Miss Wales ran and
got Mr.. Mcintosh, who was at work
| only few hundred yards away, but
when he got there the negro had dis
appeared. As Mr.. Mcintosh could
see nothing of the negro, he returned
l to his work. Miss Wales in the mean
time had gotten her fathers rifle, and
after Mr.. Mcintosh left she and Mrs
Walls went back into the house, think
ing that the negro had gone.
Presently one Of the ladies saw
something's moving mystcriously on
the ground, and on closer observation
they found it to be the same negro
trying to roll himself up to the house
4 without being seen. Miss Marie
seized her fathers Winchcstcr drew
a bead, and pulled down on him. She
did not hit him, but at the report of
the gun the black rascal did not take
time to roll away, but, like u deer Of
the forest, he bounded away at
such rapid speed that it only took
him minute OF two to hide himself
in the distant forest. The ladies say
4 they never saw Il negro run as fast as
he did.
