OCEAN MYSTERIES.
SECRETS WELL GUARDED BY OLD
FATHER NEPTUNE.

Vessels Which Have Sailed and Never Been
Heard of-The Marie Celestc-An Ameri-
can Brig That Was Towed Into Port But
Her People Had All Disappeared.
When a well-found ship leaves port
and is never afterwards heard from, 1t
is put down as a mystery of the sea-
When a dead body encased in an un-
identified life-jacket is lifted up by the
sleepless surf and cast on the wave
worn beach, that, too, is recorded as a
mystery of the deep The waterlogged
raft with the stump of distress sig
nal spar pointing mutely skyward; the
battered lifeboat with the oars drag
ging from the gunWales, and the acre
of boxes and barrels and beams and
blanks floating silently on the white
crests, and in the dark h0lloWs OF the
surging sea, these are likewise called
ocean mysteries. Sometimes these
marks of shipwreck and death are
picked up by more fortunate craft and
are brought to port to be mysteries no
longer. But there are mysteries of the
sea deeper than the plank, the crushed
lifeboat and the dead sailor. Man has
tried to fanthom them, hopelessly at
tempted to put two and two together
that he might get at the truth. Noun"
tains and valleys echo their secrets,
but the cruel old ocean never does.
There are greater secrets IN Old
Neptune's care than those of the miss
ing ship. The Naronic went away and
never came back. So did the City or
Boston, City of Glasgow, Erin, Alvo,
City of London, City of Limerick, Pres
ident, Pacific and score of others.
Yet the disappearance OF these craft
are ordinary mysteries of the sea. A
greater mystery still is when crew
abandons its ship and is never again
heard from, while the abandoned craft
is subsequently tOwed into port With
out giving the least trace OF those VINO
had been in charge OF her.
Such a case was that Of the Marie
Celeste, and it is Us weird and uncanny
a tale as even the Ancient Mariner
or the Flying Dutchman" aspired to
be. The remarkable disappearance OF
the Celestc's crew was made the sub
iect of an extensive investigation by
the State Department in Washington,
and it is from these records that the
particulars herein given were obtained.
The Marie Celeste was an American
brig of over 400 tons, and early in the
seventies left this port for Villefranchc,
in the Mediterranean. Several months
after her departure she was tOWeQ INTO
port as sound as new coin, but her
people. numbering thirteen, Including
the wife and child Of the skipper, have
not been heard of from that day to this,
The name of the captain OF the Marie
Celeste was Benjamin Briggs, and he
hailed from New England. In addition

tho face of the globe, he left his son
behind. The latter has spent q small
fortune in trying to ascertain what

people of the brig after that vessel was

mystery as he did twenty years ago.

IN MEMORY OF MORRILL,.
Tributes from Senator's to the Memory
of the Late VermOnter.

of the Late FermOnter.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 22.-To- days session
of the Senate was devoted to two special or
ders, the reading of Washington's farewell
address, an annual custom of the Senate
on Washington's birthday, and the pro-
nouncing of eulogies on the late Senator JUS
tin s. Morrill,, of Vermont. Mr. Wolcott
read Washingtons farewell address. AT the
conclusion Of the reading Of the address Mr..
Ross, of Vermont, called up the resolu-
tions relating to the death of the late SEN
ator Justin s. Morrill,, of Vermont and de-
livered a eulogy upon the distinguished
statesman. Mr.. Vest, who had served with
Senator Morrill, for twenty years on the
committee on public buildings and grounds,
paid to his memory a most beautiful and
touching tribute. by the death of Senator
Morrill,, said he, "the country has lost a
pure illustrious and valued citizen and pub
lie servant, and many of, us very dear
friend. When l came into the Senate, st
the first session of the Forty-siXth Congress,
bers of this body. Senator Morrill, is the
fifty-second of that number who has passed
across the dark river and into that shadoWy
realm to which we all hasten. There are
now but eight members of the Senate who
were here in 1879, and this CHASTITY statement
shows the energy and pertinaclty OF death,
open grave. Sirs, he sleeps, and sleeps well,
in the granite mountains of his native State,
and until those mountains are melted by
ferVid heat his memory will be loved and
cherished, not only by the people who loved
and trusted him, but by those OF the entire
Union"
Mr.. Allison, who, for almost third of a
century, had been brought into close con-
tact with Senator Morrill, in the halls Of
national legislation devoted his address
largely to a review of the work accom-
plished by Mr.. Morrill, in Congress. Re-
ferring to his devotion to the principle of
a protective tariff, Mr.. Allison said that it
must have been a source Of qualification to
Mr. Morrill, to see the policy which he had
so long championed finally imbedded in the
policy of the country.
Mr. Hoar paid beautiful tribute to Mr..
Morrill, as a man. He dwelt particularly
upon his kindliness, and gentleness, and
beauty, and evenness of character.
Messrs. Morgan, Cullom, German, Thurs
ton and Proctor all delivered addresses in
eulogy of the dead statesman. The speech
of Senator Proctor, who for many years was
the colleague of Mr.. Morrill, in the Senate
and one of his closest friends, was notably
touching.
During the delivery of the eulogies Mr..
Morrills son, Mr.. James Morrill,, and other
members of the Morrill, family occupied seats
in the executive gallery. The eulogies were
concluded at 3:15 D. m, and, as further
mark of respect, the Senate then adjourned.
