 When it is understood that this institu-

THE so-CALLED AIR SHIP.

To the h'ditor of THE BEE, Sir: AS LII so-called al ship in the West, which g
 tronomers ella i'm is the star Alpha Orianis 1 is attracting considerable attention. the l following account of phenomenon. talk.
 en from a History of Connecticut pub-
 lished in London, England, in l7SI, may l interest some of your readers.
 About l646 the people of New Haven fitted out ship and sent her richly laden 1 to Eogland to procure patent for the colony and charter for the city.
 After the ship had been at sea some
 weeks there happened in New England
 violent storm which induced the peo-
 pie of New Haven to fast and pray, and enquire of tine Lord whether their ship was in that storm or not. This
 was real fast, for the people neither ate nor drank from sunrise till sunset.
 At o'clock n the afternoon they came out of meeting, walking softly and sadly homewards. On a sudden the air thuu- dered, and the lightnings shone abroad. They looked up towards the heavens. when they beheld their ship under full ! sail, and the sailors steering her from west to east. She came over the meeting where they had lasted and prayed, and then was met by an euroclydon. which rent the sails, and overset the ship; in a few moments she fell down near the weather cock on the steeple, and instant ly vanished. The people all returned to the meeting, where the minister gave thanks to God for answering the desires of his servants, and for giving them an infallible token of the loss of thelr ship and charter.-[ Arthur T.
