the rungs of the ladder, alternating
with his right hand, and without any

stationed himself just abaft the fore

"Heave her short!" shouted the cap

mate, and the pawls of the windlass be-
gan to rattle.
Loosen sail!" followed, and the men
sprang into the rigging. Everything
was cleared to let go, and all hands,
except a man on each yard to stay the
bunt, scampered back to the deck.
"All ready aloft?" hailed the mate
"An ready!" answered the fellows on
the yards.
Let go!" and the ship flashed out
white, and stood clothed in the waves of
loose canvas. Then the chief topsails
were set, the yards trimmed, and the
anchor finally brought to head. She
steadied quickly TO her work, and as
she climbed away the light canvas was
rapidly put out.

smoke.

the forecastle- and then went again on
deck, where | found the wind rather
gathering strength and quite a stiff sea
running. We reefed the topsails, and

poop where the captain and mate were
standing and saw that the skipper
was pulling out and pointing his glass.
He took a long observation, and then,
to my surprise, shook his head ener-
getically and passed the glass to the
mate. Sellinger looked in turn, and al
most at once lowered the instrument
and began bawling something in the
captains ear. Houthwick answered
by nod, and turned sharply and ran
a little way aft. He gave command
I could not tell what-to the man at
the helm, and rapidly returned and
descended the poop ladder. The mate
followed, stopping at the bottom to
hang the glass in some beckets, and
came to the confines of the quarter

turned short at the companion, which
he opened, and from strap just in
side took out his trumpet. He made
no stop. but scurried out to the ladder
again, and went up with long. eager
strides, the pace faster than had ever
observed him use before. He was not

to me, using his hand to guide the
