mocking bird." says Mr. George W. Out-tie,

The scone presented to the gaze was one
of dcsolutiou indeed. In every direction
thc turbid current bounded the horizon.
For all one could see to the coutrury, the
cabin might have been flouting over the
watci-s of the (lulf of Mexico. or oven in the
very cmitcr of the Atluutio itself. Nowhere
could tho utmining cyc catch the first
glimpscof laud; even the towering bluff:

A long distance to tho westward was 1
group of cabins flouting downward together.

of barefooted dat‘koys, wearing immense

brethren and sitters sang and swayed their
bodies by way of accompaniment, even the
cook, forgetting her ouliury duties for the
moment. joining in the charm. It seemed
as though there might be danger of the
