out most Of the. year it is safe
for shipping except during the two
months when northern gales prevail.
Then vessels are sometimes driven from
their anchorage and compelled to cruise
about in the open sea to avoid being
dashed in pieces upon the rocks of the
Vale Of Paradise. One day from our
hotel window we watched the progress
of a fierce ''norther'' that set all the
ships a-rocking till their mast-tips near
ly touched the water, and sent noun
tain-high pillows rolling over the es-
planade, away up to the doors of bust
ness houses on the Gale Victoria. Sew
eral pedestrians were washed off into
the bowling surf, and huge steamer
was driven high up on the rocks, where
she yet remains. The crescent-shaped
harbor has mile-wide entrance facing
the north. Could a breakwater be built
across the entrance, it would give per-
feet protection to shipping throughout
the entire year, however storms might
rage outside; but here the sea is so un-
usually deep (over 100 fathoms) that
such work is not considered practical
BILE. According to local regulations,
the vessels in Valparaiso harbor, are
drawn up in lines, with the precision of
men-of-war ready for review; and very
beautiful they look, either from the es-
planade or the hill tops, all swinging to
and fro with uniform motion as the
pillows rise and fall.

The NIcoLI OR NICHOLS FAMILY.

AS the census of 1880 showed 1O1 per-
sons of the name of Nichols in Sears
port, with many Others OF the name In
termarried with other families, 1t seems
there can be no other town in the Unit
ed States so deeply interested in the fol-
lowing article from the New York Her
aid of Oct. 4th.
NICOLL OR NICHOLS HERALDRY.-
The Nichols family is of very ancient
origin. One Nicholas de Albine, often
called NIGEL and Nicholl, was the an
cester of all who bear the name OF
Nicholl or Nichols. He went from Nor.
mandy to England during the time OF
Edward the Confessor. The Duke OF
York afterward James H., and an lntl-
mate friend of Sir Richard Nlcoll, de-
termined in 1864 to send Sir Richard IN
command of an expedition to America
to capture New Amsterdam from the
Dutch. The expedition being success
full one, Sir Richard Nicoll became the
first Governor of the colony, known
thereafter as New York. He remained
the chief executive officer until the
arrival of Governor Lovelace IN 1868,
when he returned to England, where
he died. Governor Nicoll was accom-
panied to New Amsterdam by his
nephew Matthias, whom he appointed
as the first Colonial Secretary of the
province under the English. Matthias,
a lawyer of Lincoln's Inn, London, anG
the ancestor of the American Nicolls,
was the son Of an Episcopal clergyman
of Telippe, N Northamptonshire, England.
He was born in 1921, and died on De
cember %, 1887, at Cowneck, l.. l.,
where he owned a large estate. He was
member of the Governors Council,
1667-16s0; Mayor of the city OF New
York, 1872; Speaker of the New YORK
Assembly, 16S3-16s4, and Judge OF the
Court of Admiralty in 1856. Matthias
Nicoll married Abigail? The Nlcoll
family has intermarried with the old
Colonial families of Van Renselaers,
De Lanceys, Floyds, keteltas, TOWN.
sends, LaWrenceS, Hollands and others,
and has for more than two hundred
years retained its property and landed
Can any of our readers give us the name
of the wife of Governor Ncoll, or was
he unmarried? Also, can any one give
us the surname of Abigail, who marri-
ed Matthias? Governor Nicolrs claim
upon the memory of the citizens OF New
York seems to have been overlooked,
although the recent celebration of our
civic anniversary should have brought
his name prominently before US, as hav-
ing been the first English Governor.
Surely our local historical or Colonial
societies could not do better than COM
memorate by monument, or at least a
tablet, the virtues of the Royal Cover
nor, who entered so heartily into the
interests of his people. Vide Hist, OF
