"I am not a believer in ghosts or super• natural appearances," says ho, "any more than you may be"—this tc me —" but a very etrauge thing happened in a ship I ono° sailed in. "Tho oapbatn was very fond of Railing— that is, of throwing the grains and harpoon, which he did well ; and if a fish Dame fairly under the martingale he rarely, if ever, missed him. One day wo had a number of porpoises oomo snorting round the ship, tearing about bolder than ever 1 saw them, and seemed to look up at the captain as much ae to say, ' Catch us if you con.' Well, he wee a spicy little fellow and didn't like any chaffing and nonsense; so says he, Inok. in at them over the quarter : Von g qd bet- ter not tempt ono too far, for I want oil and I don like to bo jeered at,' upon whioh one of them— about the biggest I over taw— pushed hie nose above the water and gave a sort of oputtoring snort, just as if he'd been laughing to himaolt, but couldn't hold in any longer and wee obliged to burstcub. Well, the captain aouldn'b stand being made a joke of by a porpoise ; so he nap: ' I'll make you laugh on the other aide of your phee fano before I'vo done with)ou, my boy.' And then ho called to the second mate, and says he, ' Jnot•bend on the line to the harpoon and I'll strike that fellow if he oemoo within reach again, if he ie the devil himself 1' Well, there was no poop in that veosol, so the oaptaia took his stand on the quarter. boat, and had his harpoon all ready, and the line coiled free and all olear for the first pole poise that came near—but especially the big black one if possible. There ho was—the mato looking at him, the man at the wheel looking at him as wail as he could while minding his course, and two men looking at him who were mending Bails, and another man looking at him as he rigged eSootchman on to the becketay, I was on deck, too, but not looking at him constantly, because I was at• tending the ship's ooureo and looking up at the ship's sails, " All of a sudden somebody sung oat, whore's the captain 7' and we all looked about and nobody aould see him ; Bo I jump. ed into tho boat, thinking ho might he got down in her for something, but sure enough, be wasn't there, nor the harpoon, nor the line, but only aboub a fathom of the end of the lino that was bent on to the standing rigging. And nobody heard any splash in the water, nor saw him strike at the fish, nor fall overboard, but overboard he oer• tainly was. "Well, wo couldn't be convinoad that he was out of the ship, so we searohed the cabin, and the 'Sween decks, and even the hold, but we never saw him again, " Well, we were very down hearted at this, and the men thoughb it a bad sign ; but that, of ooureo, I know was all nonsense However, the mato took command of the ship, and brought her into Bombay, and there most of the hands loft her ; they never were reconciled to the ship after tho cap tain disappeared, because they sued ever) night, as euro ae oight bolls struok, they saw the captain standing up in the boat with the harpoon in his hand, and heard him say: ' I'll strike him if he's the devil himself,' and then there was a snorting and n half• ohoked laughing noise in the water all around the ship, but especially under the starboard quarter, whore the captain disap peered ; and this I could have sworn I heard often enough myself. Frank Millet's Buse. Everybody has hoard of Frank Millet. He paints pictures and writea magazine articles in times of peaoe, but when a war is " on " he become a " war correspondent,' and is likely to turn up in the Soudan, the Transvaal or bhe Balkans, But there was a time when he was nob known. He sant pictures to exhibitions, to be eure, and good ones, but no ne paid any particular atteu• tion to them or said anything about them. One day he o noeived an idea. lie painted a picture of a lady in black oittiug on a brighb red sofa standing against a vivid yellow background. The effect was just a trifle atter ding. Friends who saw it in process of produobion expostulated with him, and asked what he was going to do with it. They were simply astounded when ho an. nounoed that ho was going bo send it to the exhibition. They labored with hien, but it, vain. 'They told hint that the eribioa would " wipeitho floor " with him. " They can't do that without mentioning mo," said Frank, quietly, " and they've never even done bhet yet." To the exhibition tho picture wont, It killed everything within twenty feet on either aide of et.. You couldn't help looking ab it. Ib simply knocked you down and hold you there. Tho critics got into a tow. ening paeeion over it. They wrote whole columns about it. They exhausted the Englielh language in abueing it. They ridi• puled the committee that permitted ib to bo bung. They had squibe and gibes about 11, but every time they spoke of it they mon. tioned Frank Millet. He suddenly became the bost•kuown artist in town, Somebody, became of the stir it Lad made, bought the picture at a good price, and removed it to the seclusion of his own home. When bhe next exhibition came off Frank had another pioturetready, ono of a very different sort,. andverygood, but no better than others The which had beon exhibited before, 'ilea oritios had much to say about it, and "noted with pleasure the marked improvemenb'' that Me. Millet had mado "tau evidence,' el as they modestly put it, "of the value of cribiolsm, oven though macro, to a young artist" And the majority of them never saw that Frank had simply compelled their attention by a clover brick.

Every evening on going on board, it has been Captain Willianh's habit to go to the kennel and pat the dog before going to bis berth. A few nights ago, on going to the kennel es usual, the captain found that a dog was there as usual, hut it did not feel to the Meech like the family setter and had no cot lar. Oaproouriog a light ho found thab a strange dog oocupled the houeu. He loft the dog tbere and retired. Next morning he found his own dog in the kennel, as usual with its collar on, looking as innocent as if it had been there all night. In the evening the cap thin kept watch, and shortly after night fall the strange dog Dame on board agio and wont to the kennel, the setter with hie paws slipped off his collar and s000ted over the gang•planlc for a run ashore, the strange dog taking his place. He returned next ru morning at daybreak, slipped on his collar, and was all ready to be patted when the skipper came out for his early coffee. Captain Williams then puoehed an extra hole in the collar and awaited developments, At nightfall the strange dog came on board again and, going to the kennel, prepared to take lei, place as usual. The setter could not get his collar off and had to remain. The doge, who were watched. had an ane mated conversation in canine, Volapuk, or some other langnagc, and then the Better re, tired to rest, while the strange dog wended its way on shore, pondering on man's inhu• manicy to dogs, and sorry that its newly made friend could not go and "run" in the company of the select coterie of doge that nightly gather on the see•wall and adjacent wharves. B.ow the Buds Build, At the season when birds are building their nooto, it is an interesting chapter of natural history that tells us how they make their homes, From the observations of an English writer these facts are gathered. Scarcely any bird is more wary than the wood pigeon at other times, yet in the spring, he says, there are generally half•n•drzon nests in tho most exposed places near his houses while the old birds sit tamely, and apparently devoid of all fear, oloae to the windows. Tho mieeel•thruah forma its neat in the apple trues close to the house. Its nest, although large, issocarefully built of material resembling in color the bark oe the true, and is made to blend itself ea gradually with the branches as to show no distinct outline of a nest, and to render the nest very difttoult to dieoovor. The wren always adapts her nest to the color and appearance of the surrounding foli ane. In a beech hedge near the house, is whioh the leaves of the last year still remain at the time when the birds begin to build, the wrens form tho outside of their nests entirely o1 the withered loaves of the heath, so that, large as it is, the paeser•by would never take itfor anything more than a chane collootlou of leaves heaped together. When the wren builds near the ground, she forms her nest of the long withered grass such as grows about the spot. When her nest is in a apruoe-tree, she covers it with green moss which resembles tho foliage of the spruce. Tho little white throat builds her neat an the ground, at the root of a tree or in long withered grass, anti carefully arches it over with the surrounding, herbage and to hide hot little white eggs, planes a loaf in fronttol the entrance wheuever she loaves her rest. When the partridge quite her eggs for the purpose of feeding, she covers them in the most careful manner, and even closes the path. by which she goon to and fro thrrugh the grass, The wild duck does the same, and hides her neat and eggs by Dov 0ring them with dead loaves, sticks and otheraubotanceo whioh she afterward smooths carefully over eo as entirely to oouceal all traces of her dwelling. The larger birds, whose nests ere too largo for conaonlmeut, provide for thole security by other means. A raven, who builds en a tree, Inv..riably fixes on tho one Cleat is most dimoult to climb.

To begin with, a vary dirty copper vessel was put on bhe fire and filled with some green weed like nettles, barley flour and water. While one of tho men stirred this pottage round and round with a wooden Judie another produced some raw meat—a bit of the dong I had shot. This ho peeweodorl to tear up into small strips and throw then on the tire, every now and then popping a ra v lump into bis month and masticating it with the greatest appar• ont gusto. Liven the bite on the fire were quickly disposed of after being merely singed. Al soon as rho pottage was considered reedy it was ladled out into lIttlo wooden cups. like the whiskey "vuaigbe" of the Highlands, minus the handles, wbich each man produced from inside the breast of his dirty woolen coat, and gulped up from them with a prodigious amount of noise After being replenished again and again until the pot was emptied, the cups were carefully linked glean and redeposited from whence they had been taken. Another course of the flesh was about: to be partaken of after the manner of the arse, but a regard for my own appetite for breakfast prevented my waiting to see it discussed.
