WiD Swimming for Life. About twenty years ago a man-of- war was lying at anchor in the Drin cipal harbor of Antigua, which, as most people know, forms one of the group call the West India Islands. It was a hot, sultry day in the begin ning of June. The heavy foe, which at that time of year occasionally hangs like a curtain over everything, had been dispersed hv the heat of the a "... sun s ray,, and, like a retreatinc en emy, was rolling slowly back to the horizon. Not a breath of wind stirred the water, not a sea-gull flapped its wing around the ship. The lone Den- non drooped lazily irom the mast, as ttough sharing in tho General lan guor of nature. The surface of the sea was like a mirror, only disturbed V an occasional black hn that rip led lazily through the water for a little distance, and disappeared as its possessor sunk again, into the depths beneath. As the sun, however, rose toward the meridian, a breeze began to spring up not oool and steady, but coming now and then in irregular puffs, and hot as' the breath ot an oven. .Notwithstanding the susdi- cious appearance of the weather, and ite rapia tail ot the barometer, a party of midshipmen sited permission to take the pinnaco for a tew hours' sai and obtaining it, but ou condition that thsy should not go far from th . l- mi . . biiip. ine party consisting ot six middies aud two mates, started, ao cordingly, in good spirits, notwith standing the warning growls of some ot the old tars, lboughtless and fearless, as sailors generally are, they paid little attention to the freshening wind and the fast altering appearance f . i i rut .i oi ine cur. a lie tide was running out with great force, and they were soon outside the mouth of the harbor, and slipping down the side of the is land with a fair wind, nnd with the full strength of the ebb. One of ths mates was at the helm, a middy with the sheets, the rest stretched lazilv about the boat, smoking and talking, when like a thunder bolt, a violent squall struck them, and the light boat capsized. All its crew were immers ed, but soon made their appearance again, swimming like corks on the hlirface, and in a short time were col lected, like a flock of water (owl, on the keel of their upturned boat When they had shaken the water out ot their eyes, looked about them a lit tle, and found their number undimin ished, they nciu a consultation on their condition, and the chances for and against their rescue. The prospect of affairs was certain ly not inspiriting, ana to people poss essed of less buoyant dispositions than themselves, would have appeared hopeless. They were clinging to the wreck ot a small boat, their ship was hidden from sight by clouds of rain for the storm- had now come on in all its I u ry and the land was invisible Irom the same cause. Ihe sea was rising fast, the wind blowing a per fect hurricane, and, worse than all, they were drifting with lull force ot wind and tide into the Caribbean Sea ; once there, out of the track of vessels and far from any laud, their tale would be certain. Such being the stats ot things, many hopes were expressed that the ship would send boats in starch oi them. Comforta ble suggestions, but with too little foundation. At last, the two eldest determined upon a plan, which noth ing but the desperate emergeucy of the case could have suggested. It was to attempt to attempt to swim ashore. The land was about three miles from them; they were both first-rate swimmers, and, as far as the distance was concerned, might have attempted it on a calm day without much fear of failure ; butio a heavy gale the case was different, and both wind and tide, though not dead againt them, combined to sweep thsrn down under the lee ot the island. Above all, the place swarmed with sharks. Nothing daunted, however, these two brare fellows stripped to the skin, snd, al'ur a short good-by and a hur ried exhortation to the big ones to hold tho little ones on, aud all to keep np their pluck, they lesped into the sea. They had both resolved to stick to one another as long M they lasted, both for mutual encouragement and as some sort ot protection against the much-dreaded sharks, f or nearly an hour they swam on, sometimes lying on their acks to rest, sometimes, striking out agaio for dear life. Up to this time, allbcugh touch fatigued, they had teen no sharks; and they were encouraged by a glimpse, through a break in the gale, of the land, as it roae dark and forbidding above its white fringe ot breakers. But all at once, without a moment's notice, tber were surrounded on all sides by the black fins. An exc'smi- tioo of despair forced itseli from tbem at this sight, and both waited in ago touch them. They made contlnua short rushes at them, and, when the poor lellows closed their eyes in all the agony of death, passed by them or, turning on their backs, they would open meir monstrous laws and close their teeth with loud clash within a few inches of their victim,, bod v. One of these men said afterwards that be felt at times like a mouse in tho power of a cat that plays with the poor wretch before she makes her supper ott it, bull, however, they swum on, the thunder roaring, the lightning flashing above them, struor gling:igainst a heavy eea.terrifio wind, and strong tide, tired and exhausted, with these horrid monsters swimmine round them. One ofton reads ot nights of terror that turn a mauVhair gray. Alany ot these may bo consid ered peacful, when compared with horrors of that fiye hour's swim. At last, however, they succeeded in nearing the extreme end of the island; the sharks ono by one left them. The last, however, made a farewell plunge at the lad nearest him: and, though he missed him with Imb teeth, struck him a violent blow in the stomach with his strong tail. The poor fellow called out: and his com panion, whv was swimming a few yards in advance, though' thoroughly exhausted, returned to his friend's as sistance. He supported him until he recovered sufficiently to prooecd. and at last they once more touched the firm ground. They struggled up the beach and lay down, utterly worn out; but the thought of their com rades clinging to that upturned boat roused them to fresh exertions. After staggering on for about a half mile in the direction of some houses, they met a number ot negroes, who, as our heroes were entirely naked, attacked them with stones, and they would in all probability have fallou victims to this negro sense of decency, had not an officer fortunately passed by at mat moment and recognized them, In a few minutes their story was told and prompt measures were adopted to rescue the remainder of tho party. Boats were quickly launched under the lee of the island, and the two mates, although nearly dead from ex haustion, persisted in embarking in them. The danger was not yet over, tor the sea was running mountains high; the gale had little abated, aud the night was coming on fast. After a long and bard pull, nothing could be seen ot the missing ones, It had become quite dark, and tlicy were beginning to despair, Uue boat had already turned toward the shore, when, by the light of a vivid flash, they saw on the crest of a huge black wave the dismantled boat with it knot ot half-drowi.ing boys. They soon pulled np to it, and found to their great joy the number complete. They, too, had begun to despair; had feared their two brave comrades had perished;, were wearied and suffocated by the constant seas that were con tinually breaking over them; and some were talking of loosing their hold when the timely relief arrived. Va reaching the shore, the two brave males gave in. ihe reaction which followed their txertions and exposure was great and dangerous. One died, a victim of his heroism, the other lived, but his health was seri ously injured, and his powers of mind affected by all that be bad gone through;' for months afterward ho would start up in his bed with a shriek ot terror as he saw, in all the vivid reality ot dreamland, those mon strous sharks glaring at him, and beard the gnasC of their sharp teeth. lhis wonderlut escape can only be accounted for by the fact that the pot where they landed was the sight of the slaughterhouse for tho troops, and that the sharks were so sated with the offal thrown into the sea at that time, that even the unusual delicacy of "white man" could not tempt them. f, however, only a few drops of blood ad tingtd the water, the case would hive been very different; for sharks, ike beasts ot prey, are roused to fury at the sight ot it, and in the condition of these two poor fellows, the slight est scratch would have been instantly falsi to them. "She flat Oatlircd Her Ciffulnru" Not long ago, good-looking man in middle life came to our door ask ing for "the minister." When in formed that be was out of town, be seemed disappointed and anxious. On being questioned as to his busi uess, be replied: "I have lost my mother, and as this place nsed to be her home, and as my father lies here, we bays come to lay bar beside him." Our hearts rose in sympathy, and we said, "You bave met with a great loss." "Well yes" replied the strong man, with hesitancy, "a mother is a great loss io general, but our mother ters, and, aa wo could not find any one who would board her, we agreed to keep her among us a year about. But I have had more than my share of her, tor she was too feeble to be moved when my time was out, am a.id that was more than three month before her death. But, then, she was a gooa motner. in her day, and toife very hard to brine ua im " Without lookiu'g at the face of the heartless man wo directed him to the house of a neighboring pastor and re turned to our nurserv.

I he bell tolled long aud loud, until its iron tongue had chron icled the years of the toil-worn moth er. One two three four five, How clearly awl almost merrily each stroke told of her once peacelul slum ber in her mother's bosom and of her seat at nightfall on her weary father's knees. Six seven eight nine- ton rang out the tale of hor sports on the greensward, in the meadow and beside the brook. Eleven twelve thirteen fourteen spoke more gravely of school days and little hoiiHuliold joys and cares. Sixteen seventeen eighteen sounded out the enraptured visions of maidenhood and the dream of early loye. Nine teen brought before us the happy bride. Twenty spoko of the young mother, , whose heart was full to bursting with tho now, strong love which God ha awakenod in her bo som.

Eighty eighty-one two three four. Ah, she is now a second child, now "she has outlived her usefulness, he has now ceased to bu a comfort to herself or anybody ;" that is, she has ceased to be profitable to her earth craving and money.grasping children. Now sounds out, reverberating through our lonely forest, and echoing back from our "bill of the dead, eighty-nine 1 There she lies now in the coffin, cold and still she makes no trouble now, demands no 'love, uo sott words, no tender little offices. A look of patient endurance, we fan cied also an expression of grief r unrequited love, sat on ber marble features. Her children were there clad in weeds ot woe, and in irony we remembered the strong man's words, "sho was a good mother iu her day." When the bell ceased tolling the strange minister rose in the polpit. His form was very erect, and bis voice strong, but bis hair silvery white. He read several passages Of acripture Vx preasive of God's compassion to feeble man, aud especially ot bis tenderness when grav hairs are on him. aud his streogta faileth him. He then made some touching remarks on human fraility, and dependence on God, urg ing all present to mike their peace witb tbeir Master while in health that they mi; ht claim bis promise when heart and flesh failed them. "Then," be said, "the eternal God shall be thy refuge, and beoeath thee shall bo the everlastiog arms." Leaning over the desk, and gazing intently on the cot fined form before him, he said rever ently, "Jrrora a child I bavo honored ' the aged ; but nover till grav hairs covered my own bead, did I truly know bow much lovo and aympathy this class haye a right to domand of. their fellow creatures. Now I foel it, Our mother," ho added most tenderly, "who now lies in death before us, was a stranger to me, aa aro all theso her descendants. All I know of her is what her son has told mo to day that she was brought to this town from afar, sixty nine years ago, sv happy bride ihat here she had pass ed most ot her lite, toiling, as only . mothers have strength to toil, until sho bad roared a large family of sons and daughters that she lett her homo hero, clad in the weeds ol iwid- owhood, to dwell among her children; and that till health and strength left her. God forbid that conscience ihould accuse any of vou of incrrati- tude or murmuring on account of the euro she has beon to vou of ate. When you go back to your homes.. be careful of your example bofore your own children ; for the fruit of your own doing you will surely reap from them when yourselves totter on the brink of the grave. I entreat you aa a friend, as one who has him self entered the evening ot life, that you may never say in tho presonco of your families nor of heavon : 'Our mothor had outlived her usefulness sho was a burden to ns.' Never, nover; mother cannot I've so long as that. No ; when she can no longer labor for her children, nor yet Care tor herself, she can fall liko a prooious- weight on their bosoms, Bnd call forth by her helplessness all the noble, goft erons feelings of their natures." Adieu, then poor, toil-worn mother; thorn are no more days of pain for thee. Undying vigor and evorlnsting usefulness are part ot tho inheritance of tho rodecraed. Judicium Advertising. Judicious advertising Is not merely oaeoftho results of an improving business, but, as Is now almost uni versally conceded, it is ono of tfie most potent of thoso agencies that promote ao improvement in trade. f theso premises are correct and the Boston Post thinks they are the late spring and early summer transactions give the pullio much reason to feel encouraged and hopeful, Business men are advertising more ane; more effectively, for they are relying large ly upon the good steady co-opera tion of the leading' newspapers, and! ess upon those fitful and undesirable methods which in the experimental season of the greatest depression took advertising out ot those chanels where it docs the most good. The publics feels rather disgusted than attracted by the sight of glaring signs upon rocks and fences, and conoerning the iroular nuisanoe we baye already ex pressed an explicit opinion. At a re cent meeting of the stove manufac turers of the country at Detroit the 'resident of the tonventiou gave the members the following good acvioe: If.we would make the best possible use of our money, wn should patron izo ably-conducted and responsible newspapers. The newspaper is im- measurably the best medium open to our trade; the most liberal and expert advertisers testify to its value, and m the employment cf its columns we would find a means of escape from wasteful, undignified and ineffective methods, vo which so many resort io their, eagerness to secure attention and patronage." These words do not apply to the stove-dealers- a rone, but to all classes of persons, at all ttmesr everywhere, who are transacting le gitimale business. Even the farmers, who think themselves outside the cir of regular advertisers, would find it to their advantage to use more print ers' ink, which is a very effective oil for the wheels of commerce. A Kentucky Judgi. A Kentucky judge, Sands by name, would look- upon tho rosy, and was not always in condition to open court. Ono morn ing last week he entered the court room, and, instead of mounting the bench, said to the persons saserabled; "Gentlemen, I appear before you to ay I am victim to a viee which has disgraced me before you and my conn try. As I entered this court-room I beard some one say, 'There goes pret ty timber to make a criminal judge of.' I feel thai remark as steel through, my heart, for it is just. I sm on wor thy of the high honor and trust you have conferred upon one so young,snd I return to you the office I have lout, being unworthy of it. l'ardon me,, friends and countrymen, but you shall bear this no longer. My judicial, integrity and ofliicial acts are blame less. Thank God, I am no longer Criminal Judge of Lewis county!" There isstnff of the right kind in lbi fellow. He jll be a judge, and a ' upriget one, yet. Eveu Blaine will probably, seize n opportunity an 1 join Cookling's op p inents to crush him out.
