FRIDAY.". FEBRUARY 523, 1872. From the Oregon Herald. In Slciiiorlnm. BY STETIIEX SIAYBELL. Yesterday a parly of Italian fishermen dis covered the form of a -woman floating In the bar, stowlydriftingoutto sea. They succeeded in recovering the body, and Immediately noti fied the Coroner. This morning we attended the Inquest hold over tho had remains. She appeared a young woman of about twenty-five rears, and was neatly but modestly nttired In a dress of somedark fabric. It was a sight to last through a lifetime, as she lay there, stretched upon her rude bier, her dripping ganuentii closely ellnging to her somewhat slender form, whilst herjong, dark, matted hair hung back in wild disorder from her sad, pale face, as It lay mid and still In death. No one has Identi fied the remains as yet. 45. F. Evening Paper. Again the dreary night is gone; Again another hopeless morn! Slow drags away The weary.day. Again I weep, again I mourn. Oh sadness!

BY REBECCA ItAItDINO DAVIS "Good arable land?" Yes. Sirj I replied, and if you please to look at it in tho way of scenery, it's as pretty a uit oi land as you'Ji lind in Kent county. That stretch now ahead see. xsy me way, mere was a queer thing happened on the track just three years ago come Thanksgiving. It oc curred in this way: This branch road, you see, was built for the local peach business. I was put on as conductor of the first train that was run. By George! how the engines woke the country up! The stations used to be crowded with young fellows in flashy neckties, and their sweethearts nice, modest little girls, loaded with cheap finery, who had made up parties and come down from the interior to see tlie train go by. Every old farmer on the route thought he owned the engine, (the Gen. Jackson it was,) and knew each separate car as well as he did his own cattleand sheep. They would treat their wives to a few miles ride, as you town people would run over to Europe witlt yours. Of course, Sir, I was at homo here on the road In two weeks. Evorvbodv called me Dick. Thcro were scores of places whore I could drop in for an odd meal. I began to doubt whether they were my uncles and cousins or not All the old fellows got free passes over the road, and forsook their comers by the tavern fire for the baggage car. There they smoked day after day, and told queer stories of their neighbors' fami lies, for the benefit of anybody that chose to listen. I knew all the gossip by heart directly. It was just when the peucnes were in uioom, too, wnen x went on the road, and I was soon nunch ing open buds with my thumb-nail, and talking learnedly of Early Blush and Morris Whites with the rest It's a cu rious sight to see that pink flush, above the earJy spring mud from one end of the btate to the other, and to think that crop is the one matter of life and death to the people. The peaches had come and gone, when one uay, auout a montn neiore thanks giving, an old fellow came op board with his family, who had a pass for two down to St. George's. I saw at a glance lie was none oi my usual dead-head squad. A thin, wiry old man, white headed, but as active as a boy of sixteen, and with the true Delawarean knack of finding out friends and showing himself iricndly. He was a reporter on some i uuaueipnia penny paper, and had his note-book out every minute, pumping me about the Wilmington whipping post, Sloan's fish-breeding experiment, and the condition of the freed negroes. 'Makes items! makes items!" he said; "pushes the paper wonderfully Into local circulation." f!1,a1lev,., a doctor or lawyer, I forget which, in Kew York nml wis starved out, he told meo lie tool- t?n the the others in the baggage-car "Newspaper work," he sa'id, 'Ws fession ssion. Ye get on quite cbmfbrtablv l my salary: quite comfortablv " 5 on 1 noticed, nowever, that both he and bis women folks were thinly and shab bily dressed. I did not pay much atten tion to the women, but there was a bov Dan, tlie old man's grandson, (a little chap of four years,) that I took a fancy to from the first He had an ugly face but I think one of tlie most honest and loveable I ever saw. Tanner that was the old man's name told me he had brought his wife and daughter down to keep Thanksgivingln this village, where they had lived years before. "We were all younger and lieerfiiller than now," he said, "and I thought, may be, with the old place (Vouid come uacK some oi tne old reel ! . p i : iii jr.

There it is that one near the bill. The family went to housekeerin!r m sonic sort of way init, and be used to run up on Friday evenings to stay with them over Saturdays, which is the newspaper men's Jsuuuay, as you know. Ye grew to be very friendly. I fellinto tho habit of watchimr with liim for Dan. who al ways came out on the jwrcn to waitior him, his mother holding him by the hand. I used to wonder if the poor lit tle widow ever let go her bold of the child day or night. She loved the child. Well. Thanksciving eve came, and Tanner was aboard, going home, but I had no time to talk with him, as the train was crowded with people who bad been up in Wilmington, laying in sup plies lor tue nonuay. .even uiu juusacii ger cars were heaped with baskets and bundles. Tanner bad his littie package, too something for Dan. I saw him peeping into it with eyes twinkling once or twice. I remember bow pleased lie was when I brought him a monster tur key for Mrs. Tanuer. The old lady, al though she had only seen ine on the train as it whisked by, had taken an .melons interest in a sore throat I had, and sent me a bottle of myrrh-tea by the old gentleman. Tilnn'tknow whether it was because I had come from a part of the country where they don't keep Thanksgiving, nr hor-inse of the horror that followed, but I remember that afternoon as one of the brightest and cheerl till est. oi my life. The air was cold and crisp. There -na a iwl nilst over the hills: in the cars and the stations there was nothing but good humor anu lnenuiy goou wishes. I don't think much of serious tilings, yet it seemed to me that day that the people came with one accord nearer to God because of Thanksgiving. One old gentleman on board had the idea, I suppose; for, as I sat down be hind him to count my change, I saw him watching the passengers and houses we passed with an amused smile, and, turning to his companion, ho said: "There's something very wholesome in the effect of these holidays. Colonel. They awaken men to a sense of depend ence and gratitude, as a year's sermons cannot do." Tho other was so long in replying that I looked up at him. "When a man has a home or home ties to give thanks for, the holiday is useful, no doubt." It was so queer nnu com an answer that I felt a curiosity auout me man. He went back to ids newspaper (which was an English one, I noticed,) and bo iran to talk immediately about tho du ties on suits and linens, x soon lounu that he was lanrelv interested in both; had travelled over a goou part oi me world, traded in China and Japau. and. as I guessed, successfully. He had the air or a man accusiomeu to commanu, and to a life of ease. iiq was a imuuie- aged, stoutly-built man, with a clean- shaved, powerful face, and shrewd, Iileasantcycs. Inoticcd tbatall through lis conversation he tried toavoid seeing tlie happy groups of people who were incessantly getting on or ou tue train; and once, when a child in pass ing pulled at his cane, he turned his back roughly on it Yet I had a fancy I don't know why that tho people and Thanksgiving mattered more to him than any of us. His friend said to him presently, "You're not well, Colonel?" ".Never was better, but the truth is, Venn, this country is all familiar to me, and any thing which recalls old times makes me nervous and irritable. It's a weakness which I will outgrow, probably.

Tho Colonel laughed, and looked as pleased as Joe. He was a different man from the one I had seen in the car. I waited a moment to point out Brock's model farm to him, when Joe said: "You ued to come down to these parts f6r fishing often, I remember, Col onel ?" "Yes." "Where is your good lady now, Sir? And the child? He wasas pert a young ster as I ever knowed." The gentleman replied but by a ges ture of the hand. "What, both?" gasped Joe. "Both?" The Colonel did not speak for a min ute, and then he said, qnietly: "My wife was with me in China. She sailed with the child for home on the Petrel. I was to follow six months later. The Petrel went down. There was no one saved." Joe said nothing; but presently he put out his hand and smoothed the other man's sleeve. It was just such a thing as a woman would do. The Colonel added hastily, as if afraid he would betray any emotion: "I'm on my way West now, in search of my father, who has left New England. People are easily lost sight of in Amer ica." "That's a fact, Sir," said Joe, and be and I began to talk about the engine, glad to get back to her. We had no right to meddle with a grief like that I went back on the cars again, until we came to that hill a half mile beyond Tanner's house, when I stepped back to the engine. I had an uneasy feeling somehow about leaving the man there. We had lost time, and were going at full speed, when Joe gave a norrid oath, and at tne same moment something fluttered down on the track from the ' bank, not twenty yards ahead. Tlie silver. At this the old gentleman ex next, I saw that it was a child, it was ' pressed surprise and spoke of it as being Dan, laughing, and running, with both hands out to meet us. I had time to hear Joe's shrill whistle for "down brakes" shrieking out through the hills. anil to think it was like the yell of a devil, and to thank God that Tanner was in tne uacKoi tne tram, and could not see what we would have to see, and yet it was all but a breatli of time. It was too late. The engine did not slacken, and to child was hurrying to- uaruts it. 'men 1 saw its motiier above the bank, running down the field.

"I've nothing to lose," he said, and quickly -passing round die ledge threw himself headlong down on the track in front I shut my eyes. The train thundered on, slackened at last, and stopped. I climbed down, and looked over to a field. I did not know what I would tread into on the track. The people poured out of the train. In the clay lay the Colonel llko one dead, clear of the track. He held the child alive and unhurt, still clutched in both hands. He was only stunned, and came to in a minute, and stood up; he did not seem to sec the train, or tho crowd around him nothing but the boy, over whoso face lie was passing ins hand. "O God!" he cried.

Seventeen summers, speeding storms, Simon's small shabby shop still stand ing stauncn, saw bimon's sen-same smienkiug sign still swinging, silently specifying: "Simon Short, Sniithfleld's sole-surviving shoemaker, snoes sewed, soled superfinely." Simon's spry, sed ulous siKHtse, Sally Short, sewed shirts, stitched sheets, stiitled sofas. Simon's six stout sturdv sons Seth. Samuel Stephen, Saul, Silas, Shadrach sold sundries. Sober Seth sold sugar, starch, spices; simple Sam sold saddles, stirrups. screws; sagacious Stephen sold silver salvers: selfish Shadrach sold salves. shoo strings, soap, saws, skates: slack Silas sold Sally Short's stuffed sofas, Some seven summers since Simon's second son Samuel saw Sophia Sofronia ipriggs, somewnere. bwect, sensible, smart fcoironta bpnggs. bam soon showed strange symptoms. Sam seldom stayed storing, selling saddles. Sam sighed sorrowfully, sought Sophia So fronio's society, sung several serenades slyly, bimon stormed, scolded severely, said Sam seemed so silly singing such shameful, senseless songs. "Strange Sam should slight such splendid sales ! Struttingspendlhrift! shattered-brained simpleton !" "Softly, softly, sire," said Sally "Sam's smitten: barn's spied some sweetheart" "Sentimental school-boy !" snarled Simon. "Smitten! stop such stuff." Simon sent Sally's snuff-box spinning, seized banys scissors, smashed baiiy's specla' cles, scattering several spools. "Sneak ing scoundrel ! Sam's shocking silliness snau surcease." bcownmr bimon ston- ihhi speaKing. siartincswiitivsuonwarti Sally sighed sadly. Summoning Sam she stroke sweet sympathy.

"So soon? so soon?" said Sam, stand ing siock still. "So soon, surely." said Sallv smil ingly. "Specially since sire shows such spirits."

Some time during last summer, so says an English paper, a strangcrstopped at a farm house anu asKed permission to stay over nignt, which was readily granted by the hos pitable fanner. A couple of hours after retiring lor the nignt, tne stranger was taken suddenly and violently ill, and for several .davs was apparently de ranged. On his recovery he informed his host that during his illness he had dreamed three nlghu in succession, that he had discovered in a certain ravine. i nenr the house, under a rock, an earth- ern crock, containing a large amount of a very mysterious dream. Afterward, however, they were walking together in that direction, and the dream was again adverted to by the stranger. An examination was at once proposed by tlm farmer, to satisfy their curiosity. Tho rock was soon found, and after bnishing the leaves carefully away it was removed, and to their utter amaze ment there sat a crock full of silver. They took it out, and conveyed it se cretly to the house, and on examination it was found to contain 200 in silver, which they agreed to divide equally be tween them. The day after this discov ery as he stranger was about to take his leave, he complained to his benefac tor of the inconvenience of carrying so much silver, when an exchange was proposed, the stranger receiving ids share iu notes. It was not long after the departure oflils guest however, till mine- host made another discovery his 200 iu silver was counterfeit, and he had thus been ingeniously swindled out of 100.
