By Charles Reade. CHAPTER IX.

(Continued, )

‘Insured as specie,’ continued Hudson, ignoring the interruption, ‘Well, just at daybreak one morning, all of a sudden there was a rakish-looking craft on our weather-bow; lets fly a nine-pounder across our forefoot, and was alongside before my men could tumble up from below. I got knocked into the sea by the boom and fell between the ships, and the pirate he got hold of me and poured hot grog down my throat to bring me fo my senses.’

‘That is not what you use it for in general,’ said Wylie. ‘Civil sort of pirate, though.’

‘Pirate be hanged! That was my cor.sort rigged out with a black flag, and mounted with four nine-pounders on one side, and five dummies on the other. He blustered a bit, and swore, and took our type and our cabbages (I complained to Downes ashore about the vagabond taking the vege-

all canvas, and we never saw him sgain— not till he had shaved off his moustaches, and called on Downes to condole and say

leagues out of her course; but he had got c'ear of him. Downes complimented me publicly. Says he: ‘This skipper boarded | the pirate single-handed; only he jumped) short and fell between the two ships; and| here he is by a miracle.’ Then he takes out his handkerchief, and flops his head on my shoulder. almost reconciles me to the luss of ny gold,’ says the thundering crocodile.

£200 between us both.’

‘What a hurry you arein! Pass the grog. Well, the ‘Rose’ she lay off Ushant.

she had a careful commander; not like the ‘Kempenfelt,’ whose eye was in his pocket,

the bottom, with Lord knows how many men, sudden ; so I sent most of my men ashore, and got the boats ready in case of accident.

A squall did strike her, and she was on her beam-ends in a moment ; we pulled ashore with two bales of silk by, way of salvage, and sample of what warnt in her hold when she settled down... We

the Frenchmen were dancing about with excitement. ‘Captain,’ says one, ‘ you have much sang fraw.’ ‘Insured, munseer, says I. ‘Bone’ sayshe. .

‘Then there was the ‘Antelope,’ lost in charge of a pilot on the Hooghly. I knew the water as well as he did. We were on the port tack, standing toward the shoal.

Weather it, as we should have done next tack, and I should have failed ia my duty to my employers, Anything but that! ‘Look out!’ said I, ‘Pilot, she forereaches in stays.’ Pilot was smoking; those sand- head pilots smoke in bed and asleep. He takes his cigar out of his mouth for one moment. ‘Ready about,’ sayshe. ‘Hands bout ship. Helms a-lee. Raise tacks and eheets.’ Round she was coming like

a top. Pilot smoking. Just as he was going to haul the mainsail, some-

body tripped against him and shoved

the cigar in his eye. He sung out and swore, and there was no mainsail hau).

Ship irons. Tide running hard on the shoal, and before we could clear away for anchoring, bump !—there she was hard and fast. A stiff breeze got up at sunrise, and she broke up. Next day I was sipping my grog and reading the Bengal Courier, and it told the disastrous wreck of the brig ‘Antelope,’ wrecked in charge of a pilot; ‘but no lives lost, and the owners fully insured.’ Then there was the bark ‘Sally.’ Why, you saw her yourself distressed on a lee shore.’

‘Yes,’ said Wylie. ‘I was in that tub, the ‘Grampus,’ and we centrived to claw off the Scillies; yet you in your smart ‘Sally,’ got ashore. What luck!’

‘Luck be blowed!’ cried Hudson, angrily. ‘Some body got into the chains to sound; and cut the weather halyards. Next tack the masts went over the side and I had done my duty.’

‘Lives were lost that time, eh?’ said Wylie, gravely.

‘What is that to you?’ replied Hudson, with the sudden air of a drunken man.

‘Mind your own business. Pass me the bottle.

‘Yes lives were lust; and always will be lost in sea-going ships, where the skipper does his duty. There was a slight more lost at Trafalgar, owing to every man doing his ‘duty. Lives lost, ye lubber? And why not mine? Because their time was come, and mine wasn't. For I'll tell you one thing, John Wyilie—if she takes fire and rans be- fore the wind till she is as black as a coal, and belching flame through all her port- holes, and then explodes, and goes aloft in ten thousand pieces no bigger than my hat or your knowledge of navigation, Hudson is the last man to leave her. Duty!—If she goes con her beam-ends and founders, Hud-

son is the last man toleave her. Duty!—If she goes grinding on Scilly, Hudson is the last man to leave her bones Duty!—Some day perhaps I shall be swamped myself along with the craft. Ihave escaped til!

now, owing to not being insured; but if ever

my time should come, and you should get

clear, promise me, Joe, tosee the owners,

and tell ’em Hudson did his duty.”

Hear afew tears quenched his noble ardor for a moment; but he soon recovered,

and said with some little heat:

‘You have got the bottle again. I never saw such a fellow to get hold of the bottle.

Come, here’s ‘Duty to our employers!’ And

now I'll tell you how we managed with the ‘Carysbrook’ and the ‘Amelia.”

This promise was followed by fresh nar- ratives; in particular, of a vessel he had ron upon the Florida reef at night where

| advance to look out for signals, and come (on board and quarrel on pretence, and set fire tothe vessel insured at thrice her value.

Hudson got quite excited with the mem- ory of these exploits, and told each succes- sive feat louder and Jouder.

But now it was Wylie’s turn,

‘Weil,’ said he, very gravely,‘all this was ,child’s play.’ ~

There was a pause that marked Hudson's astonishment. Then he broke out:

‘Girl’s play, ye lubber! If you had been there, your gills would have been as white i your Sunday shirt, and a d—d deal

whiter!’

| ‘Come, be civil,’ said Wylie; ‘I tell you ‘all the ways you have told me are too sus- /picious, Our governor isa high-flyer; he | pays like a prince, and in return, he must not be blown on, if itis ever so little. ‘Wylie,’. says he, ‘a breath of suspicion would killme.’ ‘Makeit so much,’ says IJ, ‘and that breath shall never blow on you.’ , ‘No, no, skipper; none of those ways will do for us; they have all been worked twice too often. It must be done in fair-weather,and in a way—fill your glass and i'll fill mine— capitalrum, this. Yon talk of my _ gills ‘turning white; before long we shall see keeps their color best, mine or yours, my boy,’

The Over-feeding of Poultry.

‘

Among the many causes which desolate a poultry-yard one may be mentioned as being very frequent, and to which it is necessary to call speciel avtention; we mean the excess of food; and the accidents it entails, especially the burden of fat on the To many people the secret of rear-

\ing consists in obtaining poultry overloaded

Cleared | with fat: th bli $70,000, he did, out of the ichotten!| vr h fat; the public generally do not trouble

Marine, and gave the pirate and me but}

about the means employed, nor the incon- veniences they entail; they simply look to the result which charms the eye and de- Indeed, the fact of a fowl (says Le Poussin) being fat and plump does not constitute an inferiority, so long jas the fat does nct pass a certain limit, , which if it does becomes in a manner an in- \firmity, which exposes the bird either to

die or seriously to impede its functions of | reproduction.

The fatty invasion of the ovary injures the production and evolution of the egg, which travels with difficulty to the oviduct, which becomes contracted ,hence a decrease or even a suppression of laying. In addi- tion to the restraint of the different func-

ions ma: pdded the danger of. sudden eath ehick happens by the sudden rup-

ture cf the heart and also by that of the oviduct. At the post-mortem the degener- ated muscular fibre presents a coloring of dead leaf, and it is flabby and friable, hence the facility to rupture and hemorrhage.

Whenee comes this fat, what is the origin of it, and in what way is it carried to the tissues? A portion is produced by the food —that is incontestable; but it is not neces- sary that it should contain any; in fact, it has been tried to feed animals exclusively on fatty substances. Fat does not always accumulate in the same proportion—fortun- ately it is consumed and burnt as it pro- ceeds, thanks to an abundant oxydation of the blood. In other cases it is certain that the organism can show fat where the ail- ments it receives do not contain any. The experiments of Voigt, who had established the fact, show in addition that the fat thus formed proceeds from the decomposition of the albumen.

Independently of food there are other conditions which favour fatting—viz., rest and heat.

Exercise entails an expenditure of heat, a superabundance of activity of combustion and secretion, consequentiy a loss; rest produces naturally the contrary phenomena, Exercise of any length produces an accele- ration of the flow of blood, and a want to renew more abundantly its oxygen, which assists to destroy the fat and prevents it from accumulating; moreover, it develops the strength of the muscles.

Inaction, on the contrary, leaves the fatty tissues to develop themselves at the expense of the muscular tissues, especially if the temperature of the house where the fowl roosts is rather high. As to heat, we know that fowls fatten much quicker in in a warm receptacle than in the open air, We see then, that if, by a special attention to the feeding of poultry, we can obtain fat subjects, we are not on the road to progress, as it is generally believed, but in reality, it is truly a degeneracy. We must never force nature; the most we can dois to assist it.]

Theretore we must introduce variety into the food, adding at times fatty ingredients, but only in equal qrantities to half the food containing azote. Besides, always give green food to poultry, which they will eat it they feel the necessity of it. Give them regularly enough and no more, espe- cially do not cram them for the purpose of obtaining marvellous results in appearance, but very unfavorable to the health of the fowl, as also to the transmission of the breed. Poultry, moreover, ought to have the privilege of exercise, so that they can always be in as good a condition as in their primitive state.

Mr. Chambers, a colored man, has de- manded that his children be admitted to the Central School, Windsor, Ont. His family, consisting of six children, have uot «ttended school for three years, as ad- mittance was denied them.
