Captain Archer, ut• the Vixen, was a good officer, though inclined to be severe for any neglect of duty or disqbedience of orders. To his son, the midshipman, who was to be in command of the picket post, he gave a word of caution as he parted from him. 'We have to deal with a crafty, merciless enemy. You have yuur written instructions. Follow thein strictly. Be vig'lant • Signal us atonce when a boat or canoe ap• pears coining down the river." Tofu made a bow and took leave of his father, very proud of his first command on detached dty. 'When he got into his 'boat with four marline in the bow and six sea- nieu aboard with pistols aud cut - lassos at the oars, ho felt as if he could subdue a whole array of black follows.. He opened his orders and read : 'Permit no canoe or haat of any sort to pass your post downward without reporting to the ship by signal. If they will not stop when hailed, fire upon them. You will remain on duty there until relieved unless recalled by two gnus from the ship,'- ...._ _ It was early morning, with a light tnist upon the river 'etwo hours had passed in killing Congo flies and mosquitoes in theshado when they heard the report of guns on river above theta, • 'There is firing close at hand, sir,' shouted the lookout.

Catoh the canoe that is coming !' 'More signals, sir ! They have fired on the canoe, Ten blacks— throe wounded,' Now, boys, I have commenced this story at the wrong end. I will go back now and make a proper start. Near the upper cataract on the Corentyn River Waku lived. He was the most troublesome of the black chiefs along the river—the boundary betwesu British and Doteh Guina. After one of his excursions in search of plunder he brought to his hut in the forest above the crtaraet an Indian Qirl, a 404 :1 or g year eatd it was We: swear daughter,. glut last ciao beliaVes tit, 'ltt►e. poet ohitd iv 'erne4y neared ' y 1.'1!tcp and hhtaWvittatS a OM (Ad iweinan, 'f ,After throe year'akt1f pattentalxfi'er' ing the young .Indian. dfs ppeared, Very angry, Walto W33 when loo fouled We slave mdeere,g, She bad been'takea in by a white fatuity at Waraputa Mission. She had euffered tenthly in her tong long journey' through• 'the forest. She 'had been more than a week on the way. She was ill and delirioue with fever. when found by one ot. the mission people and had been carried to the house of W. Morgan, the ffliesioilary. In that, peaceful home the young girl puttered three happy years. She became very much attached to May and Walter, Mr. Morgan's young daughter and son. They gave her an English name, Maria, and she soon remembered • Waku as the principal figure its some unhappy dream. Qne afternoon, when the shadows of the palms were growing long, and orchids were opening their per. fumed cells to the bees, and the great scarlet winged dragon flies were on a homeward flight, and the children, tired with play, were a• eleep in their .hammocks on the shady veranda, Maria strolled away to a grove of orange trees by the. river. Suddenly, cut of a thick hedge of shrubbery, between her aud the house, arose the bushy head and the fierce eyes of Waku. In another moment he held her firmly by the arta, as he made her walk faster. At a greater distance frt,m the house he began to speak to her. 'I have lopked for you to kill you when I found you, aud to kill thoee ,vho have kept you from me. 1 will do so yet if you du not .go with me—I, your father, am the one to take care of you.' No need, to repeat Maria's entrea- ties; she was soon convinced that her own safety and that of her white friends of the mission de- pended on going with this savage. She could not even returu to give a last kiss to the sleeping children. It was not to the old but on the Coret:tyn, but to one much nearer on the Maccari Mountain side, overlooking the valley of the Essequibo that Waku took her—a three days' journey from the mis- sion. Tho feelings of Mr. and Mrs. Morgan may be imagined when night came and passed. May and Walter cried for the lose of Maria. Walter said a lion or tiger had at•' tacked her in the forest—by which he meant. a puma or jaguar—but the children's parents knew site had been kidnaped again, as they learn- ed presently that . Waku had been seen iu the neighborhood. To Maria the contrast between her past life at the mission and that to Wake's hut was terrible at first, hut she soon found a good reason for enduring bravely. Savage nogrons, with feathers braided into their spiral twists of wool, Maroons with hideous tattoo marks on their faces and armed with clubs set with teeth of cayman or shark, carne daily and nightly to consult with Waku. Maria s;on gathered that We' u was planning destruction to the white people of the valley. She kept out of sight as much as pos- sible; for •the first few months sher had been closely watched by an old negro woman employed for •that purpose by Waku, but now she -had more froedoin. Every night now she hid in a place where the negroes hold their meetings. For two years there had been only dire threatenings, but now the time had come for action. At the rising Of the moon of a certain evening a thousand blacks would hegin their march on separate ,points. Wako as leader would at, tack the Waraputa mission ; all were to kill, burn, and destroy. Three nights after that Maria reached her old home not an hour in advance of the blacks. All the southern sky was red with the light of burning houses and cane fields. When she reached the house the children were asleep upon their cots ; Mr. and Mrs. Morgan were at the mission church, where arms were being given out ; already there was firing ; shrill cries rung on the night air, and the Indian girl thought elle heard the shouts of Waku. She woke Walter, who was de. lighted to hear her voice again ; without waking little May she took her in her arms, with a blanket closely wrapped about her. They escaped from the rear of the house, ,just as the mob of blacks commenced hurling burning brands on the palm deaf roof. The Morgan fancily, overpowered with grief at the loss of the chil. dren, who they believed had perish, ed in the burning house --like many others on that horrible night—made their escape. They embarked the next day in canoes, making their way down the river toward the coast, knowing all too well they were pursued by the blacks.

On the eighth day of their journey they Game upon a email canoe, hidden on a tributary stream e short diestanoe = from► the river. Maria soon found the paddle, and that night the weary children lay at test on the bed of leaved iu the canoe, covered with their blankets Alaria, too, slept, and the boat glided down the river borne by the current. At the first dawn of day Maria kept close to the shore, and soon forced the canoe under a heavy Noreen .of foliage, overhanging from the bank. There the three had another long delicious rest. The carpenter bee know .they were there and told the humming "bird ; a squirrel saw them but kept still about it; even the etrisv kingfisher, who liked the cool shado of the spot, saw' they were only three tired uhildree fast asleep. Far into the night they must have slept, when 1llaria woke and got the canoe out into the current ngein. She began to hope all danger was past ; the fiery sun came up and faced then), on their watery path. Maria saw nothing to alarm . her, but she kept. close under the shadow of great trees' and cliff,' whenever she could. The children were calks ing of ho ne as they lay in the bot- tom of the canoe and watching the flight of macaws and swift -winged parrakeets above them, when the were startled by Maria's voice, say ing, inn low, frightened tone ! "Li' down i Cover 'your heads? Sit ,,nee!" The ),oat was in a strong current and ailed now by gwift strokes n the paddle, it had. turned aroun the hose of a cliff and shot out ii full view of a group of blacks squat ting or lying about a tire on th shelving bank. With all he strength and skid Maria used• her paddle, far asshe faced partly to- wards the group she had looked into the fierce eyes of Waku. Waku, frantic with passion, shouted, "Stop ! Step, or I shoot you dead 1" He had to reach hit gun first, anti the brave girl was by that time sixty yards away. Three gone were fired and two bullets 'lodged in the canoe. Maria changed ileF paddle and crossed the current toward the other shore. The negroes had, launched their canoe, and now sik paddles flashed in the yellow glare of the sunlight, corning in swift pur- suit, Wake standing in the bow re- loading iris gun. Around another rocky point an- other voice shouted. But Maria would not stop then for the King of England ; still it w•Hs an English voice, She glanced hurriedly over her shoulder. She saw the scarlet harmer, tete cross of St. George, on a flagstaff on the rocky point elle had passed a few moments; before, but suddenly sight and strength failed het• ; she drew in the paddle, falling forward at the feet of the frighten, ed'childretri _ _. "She had fainted from - loss of blood ; only .a flesh wound it the Hi -slit arra," said the surgeon of the "Vixen," shortly after. WHkn was a very foolish negro when he turned his gun upon the marine who hailed hint; before he could use it he and two of his cor- panions were badly wouuded, and they were soon prisoners on board the "Vixen." When his Britannic Majesty's cutter reached Georgetown agHln there was a joyful meeting between parents and children within the wall of Fort Will'fam Frederick, and here little Maria was safe forever from Walcu. She had surely prov- ed her gratitude to the Morgans. MISSING 1,•141% A.

This will precipitate all the impurities to the bottom, after being allowed a few hours to settle, and will so purify it that it will be found to possess nearly all the freshness and clearness of the finest spring water. -1 pailful containing four gallons may be purified in this manner by using no more than a teaspoonful of the alu rn.

They will listen it is true, to is black orator on the platform and applaud him to the echo, especially :f he is a little caustic in, hie allu- sions to the Southern people, but, they do not invite him to their parties, however charming he may' be°in conversation, nor do they, ask him to their houses however con- genial ho may be socially. They never think of intermarriage with him, and there is not a white con• gregation in the North that is served by a colored minister. DON'T PRACTICE WHAT THEY PREACH, "They have done a great deal for the negro for which they deserve' credit, but they talk •about the arbi- tration of caste is flatly contradict- ed by their practice. The negro. delegates in their general conference now in session demand the election of a negro bishop, but there is not the slighest probability that any child now living will ever see a negro bishop presiding over a white conference of the Mi thodistchurch. The situation is extremely embar- rassing, and I wish them a happy deliverance from the dilemma in which they have placed themselves. "Regarding the recent lynching of•nogrees by Southern mobs," re- sumed the Bishop, after a medita- ttttive pause, -,two ar three things may be properly said: First that the unspeakable crime fur which they were lynched outlaws the per- petrator, whether White or black, in every part of the United States." "Frequent lynchings," continued the Bishop, warming as Ile proceed- ed into the marrow of the inter- view, "hate oceured from time to tirue in the North butthey appear to le forgotten entirely. The white man in the South who is guilty of of the same crime nieete an awful doom as swiftly as does the black man. It i9 notable that in all the spasms of indignation against the Southern people because of these lynchings no word of sympathy has been spoken for the white women who were their victims." AMALGAMATION DEMORALIZED'. "The fact is," went on the Bishop "that the ethnological distinction between the races is God's own tv.ork,uud the -best' people' of -both raees have• no desire to obliterate the distinction, The amalgamation._ of the races would demoralize both and lead to the extirpation of the weaker, The best element of the negro race have no sympathy with with the crimes that result in these outboeaks and they aro ,beginning to realize that the Southern people among whom they live are their truest friends. They have no de- sire to go to where their confessed friends are most numerous and noisy but prefer to live among the white people of the South. The'Southern people should have the sympathy, patience, forbearance and help of the North. No people could have .done bettor by the negroes while they were in boudage than was done by the people of the South. No people will do better by them now under the changed condition. • The application of the golden rule will preserve and subserve the welfare of both races in the Snuth." --W. A.
