With a ringing cheer the men-of-war's men dashed forward, and the smoke of cannon rising the astonished freebooters beheld the barge darting up under the schooner's stern.

The marines from the Gallinipper jumped aboard and captured the schooner without resistance; while the Mosquito, pulling rapidly amongst the fugitives in the water, cut them to pieces indiscriminately.

"Ah, yes," said the claim-agent, "I remember now. How much do you think your trunk was worth, Mrs. Lovelock?"

"That's pretty steep," mused the claim-agent, looking at his note-hook. "Let's see how you make it What was the trunk itself worth, for instance?" "Well, it was a fine, large, new trunk, an' I had jest paid fifteen dollars for it before I started." The claim-agent made a note of the fifteen dollars. "Well, what was in the trunk?" he asked.

The bank of the town where I was found itself greatly embarrr.ssed one fine day by the failure of its principal correspondent in the Territory. This fact became known late in the afternoon of the day that the news of the failure reached the town. A run on the bank the following morning was inevitable. To meet it there was but six thousand dollars in the vaults.

The remainder of the assets could not immediately be turned into ready cash. The president of the bank was at his wits' ends. He didn't know what to do. Morning came and he decided to close the bank. He was about to give the necessary orders when in walked a committee of the leading merchants of the place.

They asked for an explanation of the situation. It was given to them and likewise an opportunity to look at the books. A short examination sufficed to show that the bank was only temporarily embarrassed. They said to the president: 4You open the doors at ten o'clock as usual and pay the depositors; we'll see you through this 'But how arc you going to do said the president; 'I have but six thousand dollars here and there are at least thirty thousand dollars in deposits to be met. Half of that sum is clamoring on the sidewalk 'Never mind, you open the bank and go said the committee, 'and we will see you "Well, the bank was opened and in rushed the depositors and out went the money.

On the sidewalk the people who had drawn their money were met by some of the merchants who had promised to see the bank through. 'What are you going to do with your they would ask. 'I don't came the answer.

'Suppose you leave it with us; you know our house and know that we are responsible. We will give you a note and so much interest' To the farmers (for the majority of depositors were farmers) the money in their pockets where it drew no interest was of little use; they preferred, of course, the notes and were without difficulty persuaded to part with their money. As soon as they had received the money the merchants would deposit it in the bank. The same money was paid over the counter three times or oftener in the course of the day, and when the shout rose, then a roar of laughter. trace of human presence was to be mi The supposed pirates were several seen irom tne water.

These miscreants, the successors of the atrocious "buccaneers," hovered about the smallest and least known harbors, sounds and lagoons along the southern coast of Cuba.

They infested also Hay-ti, Porto Rico and some of the lesser Islands. Most of their vessels were small craft of light draught, capable of being propelled, in calm weather, by means of sweeps, or long oars, and of entering shallow bays, inaccessible to the heavy English and American men-of-war. The havoc wrought by them on ur commerce in that quarter was considerable. Our Government therefore fitted out and put in commission a number of light vessels several of them small schooners and barges which received the name of the Mosquito Fleet, for the express purpose of ferreting out the freebooters. Some of these small warships received characteristic names: there was the Beagle, the "Weasel, the Fox, the Ferret and the Greyhound.

The last-named was a schooner of eighty-five tons burden. She was a rapid sailer, and carried for armament one long pivot gun and two eighteen-pounders. The other vessels were of similar tonnage and outfit. Of the barges two had been christened the Mosquito and the Gallinipper, respectively. Farragut, then a Second Lieutenant and twenty-one years of age, was assigned to the Greyhound, commanded by Captain John Porter.

The entire flotilla was under the command of Commodore Porter, with whom young Farragut had served as a middy at the early age of ten years on board the famous old frigate Essex.

A large share of professional and public attention has quite recently been directed to the administration of gaseous enemati for the treatment of blood, poisoning and of affections of the respiratory passages. The object in viewis to supply to the venous circulation an antiseptic, such as hydrogen sulphide, in suflicient doses to be effective a result impossible when supplied directly to the arterial current, a plan which would poison the patient Hydrogen sulphide in far less than sufficient doses would suffocate the patient; taken by the stomach, it would produce other serious results. Administered by the bowels, however, and entering the venous current already deteriorated by organic refuse, it is quickly eliminated by the respiratory tract, which thus becomes subjected to its beneficial local antiseptic effects without subjecting the system at large to injury, as when thrown into the arterial current In other words, the parasite is killed, without killing the individual.

Its beneficial effects in phthisis are explained by the action of the gas on the suppurative and septic surfaces, and not by an influence on the bacillus tuberculosis; the consumption proper, the exhaustion, being due to the suppuration and to the consequent septicaimia, and not immediately to the bacillus, which, while it produces the destruction of tissue, does not produce the morbid phenomena. The method of administration utilizes the discovery announced by Bernard in 1857, that toxic materials introduced into the economy through an organ at a distance from the arterial system could not penetrate into the arterial system because it is eliminated before that system can be reached. Volatile sub-stances are eliminated by the pulmon ary alveoli. July 12, 18SG, Dr. Bergeon communicated to the French Academy of Sciences the results of several years' investigation into the method, and.

Prof. Comil also presented a later paper on the subject Various antiseptic gases and vapors-have been tried, but abandoned on account of local irritant action, but a. mixture of carbon dioxide (carbonic-acid gas) and hydrogen sulphide (sul-pheretted hydrogen) is entirely harmless when properly used and completely deprived of atmospheric air. The method has up to the present been used upon about one hundred cases in this city without any untoward effects, so far as known, except in one or two-instinces, one of which was due to a leaky bag and another to incorrect -administration. It is, pcrh.tps, too-soov to decide positively on the thera peuUc value of the new method, but it-seems in the experience in this city to have the special quality of diminishing night sweats and improving the appetite.

In Bergeon's cases the trifling expectorations of those apparently practically cured continued to contain, bacilli. This fact may be taken both, for an indication that the immediate danger in phthisis is less from the baccillithan from the septicaemia which-they set up, and as an indication that this protective treatment, when successful, should not be discontinued, until the general healthiness of the tissues is sufficiently restored to resist the further development and sustenance of the bacillus tuberculosis. -Philadelphia Polyclinic upon finding that his surmise was cor of the sea, too deep to ford, though it rect, sent an apology and a present of was not more than thirty orforty yards fruit to Porter. in width.

There were many boats, several of them new, and a great quantity of fishing-tackle, as well as sabers, guns and four cannon. While reconnoitring, one of my men discovered a dark hole at the base of the crag. We looked in, and then, to our surprise, found it to be the entrance to an immense cave, full of plunder of all kinds, taken from vessels which the pirates had captured.

"Just as I was entering the cavern, a very large black monkey jumped down from a dark nook in the rocks, and chattering his teeth angrily, disputed by advance. Determined to take at least one reputable prisoner, I seized him by the throat, and for a few moments we had a prodigious struggle. The black brute was almost as strong as a man. He bit me through the arm, but I choked him into submission. He surrendered and behaved very well, offered no further resistance while I bound him with a bit of warp.

"On exploring the cave with torches, we found large number of bales of silks, satin3 and laces, together with bundles and packages of less expensive fabrics. There was one long tier ot saddles of fine workmanship, also harnesses and silver-mounted bridles by the dozen. From the labels on several large case3 of cutlery, we concluded that some English merchantman must have fallen recently into their hands.

"The trunk hasn't been hurt at all," said the claim-agent, "except by the wetting it got when the baggage-car fell into the creek. If jou've got the key here, we'll open it, and see what the damage was." "I I've lost the key," she stammered.

"Oh, well, then, we'll break it open," said the claim-agent, cheerfully. "Oh, no, do that," she remon-straicd. "It it ain't my trunk I borrered it from my sister, an' she wouldn't like that I should break the lock. I'd ruthcr take less money." 'I guess you said the claim-agent, with a chuckle.
