WAS PIRATE CRAFT
RiVermen Tell Of Escapades OF
the Envoy, a Packet OF
the Fifties.
S7TH YEAR FOR DIAMOND 10
Sketch of Origin and Development
OF the Line-River
Notes.

There are perhaps many people liz
this section who remember the old
steamboat Envoy, which piled these
waters hi the summers of 1855 and
1856, under command of Capt. y. c.
Roe. trim, swift boat which, how
ever. ran into debt to the amount of
$4,000 during the two seasons; and
some there are who now recall the
adventures of the crew of that steam
er on the occasion of the memorable
Masonic excursion to Dubuque. 1t was
a glorious summers morning. and the
Envoy, crowded with pleasure-see kers,
was about to cast off from the Lyons
levec and start on her trip up the
river, when an officer of the law
boarded her and remorselessly tied
her up, affiXing Il strong cable to her
anu to post on the levee. Where
upon Capt. EstaDrooks. who was run
ming as mate on the boat, assumed
the responsibility. Playing out the
cable gradually. he let the boat drift
down stream. at the same time swing
ing her head about; and. under ire
mendous Roadway, the vessel reached
the lend of her rope" and careencd
violently, nearly capsizin%. The boats
momentum tore the post from the
ground. and it. with the cable, was
hauled on deck. 1t was Il foolish risk
of the lives of hundreds. but il was
successful. and the big steamer clear
ed for Dubuque.
At Dubuque the Enjoys troubles
continued. Officers with license
boarded her. and with the object of
making sure of the slippery skipper.
removed the piston heads from the
engine. Necessity is the mother of
and the captain Of the En-
voy was equal to the emergency. With
his carpenters he whitfield out some
piston heads Of stout oak. and when
the hour for departure came he quiet
ly got up steam, and with jingle of
bells and blowing of whistles the Grip
pied craft sailed maiestically away be-
fore the eyes of the astounded officers
of the law.
The Envoy was Neritable pirate of
the river. 1t is said of her that she
has been known to land at a dozen
river wood yards before she found one
whose proprietor was absent. Then all
hands would go to work with will
until the ENJOYS guards and holds
were loaded to their capacity. Occa
the craft would forge her
way up stream at night in gallant
style, ablaze with lights; then, with
lights out and eXhausts hushed. she
would wheel about and glide like Il
phantom ship down the opposite side
Of the river, to be next heard of on
the Red or the Ohio. Many are the
tales the old rivermen tell of the an
cient Envoy, which has long since
gone to the place where all good and
bad vessels go.

The Arabic Language.

There is no language more poetical
than the Arabic language, where
snow is called hair of the mountain"
and the rainbow is bride of the rain"
Red mullet is "the sultan of fishes"
maidenhair fern is translated by little
cane of the we'll" Ordinary Arabic
words show an extraordinary gift of
description. The word for secretly
means literally under the mating
and never is expressed thus: "When
the charcoal takes root and the salt
buds" Uncontrolled ascendency of i'm
%agination marks the Arab and endows
his nature with a fascination all its
own. An outdoor life is his heritage,
and the things of nature are a part of
himself. Spring he calls grass" sum-
mer is cleaning" autumn is fruit"
winter is "rainy."

Emperor Charles V. of Austria, by
far the most powerful ruler of his day.
was thus described as he appeared at
table by Roger Ascham, secretary to
the English ambassador, in 1850: 81
stood hard by the emperor's table. He
had four courses; he had sod beef
very good, roast mutton, baked hare;
these be nc service in England. The
emperor hath a good face, a constant
look; he fed well of a capon; | have
had a better from mine hostess Barnes
many times in my chamber. He and
Ferdinando, king of the Romans, ate
together very handsomely, carving
themselves where they list, without
any curiosity. The emperor drank the
best that ever l saw; he had his head
in the glass five times as long as any
of us and never drank less than a good
quart at nee of Rhenish wine" 1t
was notorious that the emperor ate
and drank immoderately, and as a nat
ural result he suffered terribly from
govt from the time he was thirty years
old.

THE MILKY SEA.
\ Curious sight Occasionally Wit
messed In Tropical Waters.

(0 IN AEOPhCal waters
OF the many sights witnessed in the
oceans of the globe, one of the most
curious and most weird is that de-
scribed by sailors as the milky sea-
ships being surrounded for several
hours by water hat appears to be a
snowy whiteness. The spectacle is re-
stricted to the darkness of night and
rare occasions, and, while it is limited
mainly to the warmer waters of the
tropical belt, it appears to be more
common in the Indian ocean than in the
Atlantic and Pacific. From the white
water the light is so strong that ordi-
nary newspaper print can be read on
board ship, but the scene all round is
of an inspiring description. The
horizon is blotted out, sea and sky seem
to become one in a sort of universal
luminous fog, which, like a London fog,
robs the observer of the sense of dis
lance and direction, the deck being lit
up with a CHASTITY, shadowless light.
Once off the west coast of South Amer
lea a bucket of the white water emp
tied back into the sea resembled molten
lead. This curious sight has interested
scientific investigators, but while 1t is
no doubt related to the many phos-
phoreseent displays common at sea
there is no sufficient explanation forth
coming of this particular manifestation
or of the singular atmospheric effects
resulting from it.

A Queer Police Force.

The policemen in Haiti are paid by
results. They get capitation fees for
all the arrests they make. AS they
come from the worst class of the popu-
lation and are under nc discipline, it
follows that a nan is very liable to be
arrested in Haiti unless he is willing
to pay the policeman more than the
capitation fee. AS this fee is only 10
cents, the price of freedom is not pro-
hibitive.
If a man objects to paying the fee
and says he would rather go before the
judge the policeman soon conyinees
him of the unpleasantness of arrest
with a thick club.

A soft pack is the most effective
method known for alternating infam-
nation and getting rid of irritation in
rheumatic govt. To afford relief every
night a piece of flannel should be APP
piled. This flannel should be saturat-
ed in brine and then wrapped around
the affected joint or joints. The fan
mel should then be covered with a rub
Der or oil silk bandage. Both should
be kept on all night.

The National Jewish Hospital for Consumptiyes has just completed an other fiscal year during which it cared for 156 patients of all creeds and from every section of the Union.

 At present the facilities of the hos pital are taxed to their utmost and there is a great need for an enlarge ment of the institution. .--l
