that 01?! coal was getting low and that
we had lost a good deal of time, andthaf
if we continued to low her we might.
sink her and we ourselves bu left. with-
out fuel and be uuab e to get to port.
The captain and crew were willing to
take the schooner and run their own
risk of getting to port. It. was decided
that that was the best thing to do. so the
men were put back on board of her and
our men taken off, and then we cut her
loose. She was finally taken trying to
run the blockade and confiscated togeth-
er with her cargo.) Nothing new trans-
pired until we arrived near Sandy Hook,
when we were met with a northeast
snow storm and our cool was about cot:-
sumcd. They were obliged to cut up
everything loose about the vessel in or,-

just able to reach the wharf. It was
near dark when we landed. My com~

we stayed at the Putnam llouse. For a
man in my condition to get into even a

morning. After euziug a piece of toast
and drinking a cup of cot‘foe I felt quite

with his skill. change of diet. and good

Venus is evening star. and though
during February she is above the horiz m
for a much short-1r tune than her bright.
brothvr planets Jupiter and Saturn, such
is her charming appearance in the soft
light. of the ebbing day that lovers of the
stars will unite in giving her the place
of honor on the monthly record. This
radiant evening star has now advanced
for enough from the sun to be easily vis-
iblc. On the 23th she shines serenely for
an hour and a half after sunset. As
Venus is an inferior or inner planet. she

Dec. 5.—~Transporntion was obtained
for us, and we took the steamer
for New York. But all the excitement
and anticipation of soon being with my
family did not. give me life or strength
enough to get on board of the vessvl.
But my comrades agisted me, one carry-
ing my things, and two, one on either
side of me, helped me down to the wharf
and on board. They made me a bed on
the (hot in the hold of the vessel. and I
laid down and rested very well the first
night. In the morning I felt quite re-
vived; either the change or the idea of
going home had put. a little life in me,
and I began to take some interest in my
surroundings. The second day out a
steamer burning soft. coal was sighted.
It was supposed that. perhaps she was a
blockade runner, and our vessel started
in pursuit, which caused a good deal of
excitement on board, we thinking we
might be brought into a naval fight.
But she was entirely out of our course,
and as we had coal and provisions only
for the trip to New York it was not.
deemed advisable to pursue her. At
sunrise the third day a schooner was
sighted, and as we drew nearer she ap-
peared to be a suspicious looking craft,
and when we got within hailing distance
we hailed her, but; she paid no attention
but changed her course as though she
wanted to get. out of our way. But a
solid shot acroés bet bow caused her to
heave to and there was an officer and
squad of men sent aboard of her, who
found her loaded with salt. The cap-
tain could not vhow a very satisfactory
set of papers nor give a very straight ac-
count of himself. They transferred the
captain and crew to our vessel and pm a
crew from our vessel on the schooner

Jupiter Is morning star, according to
astronomical classification, although he
rose before midnight on the 15!, and wril
rise soon after 10 o‘clock when the month
closes. This superb planet. is now 14 de-
grees east of Spica, and, as he is nearly
stationary during the month, the two
heavenly bodies wall preserve their rela-
tive distance.
Neptune is evening star. 0n the 13th
at 9 o'clock in the evening he is in quad~
rature on the sun‘s eastern side. He is
statidnary during the month.
Mercury was morning star until the
7th, and in; evening star for the rest of
the month. The first. planer. he encount-
ers in his eastern course is Mars, who is
moving westward and approaching the
sun. The two planets are in close con-
junction on the 231, at 11 o'clock in the
morning, Mercury. being 3‘3 minutes
north. A: the close of the month keen
sighted observers may find Mercury
about. 5 degrees northwest of Venus.
Uranus Is morningsbar. Since ittakes
this planet seven years to traverse a. con-
stellation, he hardly seems to change his
place from year to year. He is now
slowly mtrograding. or moving west-
ward, and so near opposition as to' be
visible to the naked eye among the small
stars of Virgo. Uranus rose on the lat

he rises a few minutes after 8 o’clock.

with Venus on the 9th and with Mercury
on the 23d have already been referred to.
At the close of the month Venus, Saturn,

The Legislature Asked to Provlde Ado-
quatc Protection.
Members of the Women‘s Christian
Temperance union are circulating
throughout the state. and obtaining
signatures thereto, the following peti-
tion, which explains itself:
To the 52¢»de House of Rqrresenta-
firm: ‘
The incroa. ‘ng and alarming frequen-
0-". of assaults upon 'womcn. and the
frightful mdignities to which even little
girls are subject. have become the shame
of our boasted civilization. A stud of
the statutes has revealed their utter ail-
ure to meet the demands of that newly
awakened public sentiment which re-
‘quires better protecthu for womanhood
and girlhood. Therefore we, men and
women of ' state of Connecticut,_
do most earnestly appeal to you to enact
such statutes as shall provide for the
adv-«pinto punislunent of crimes against
women and girls. We also urge that the
ago of protection be raised to at least
eighteen years: and we call attention to
the disgraceful fact that protection of
the person is not placed by out laws upon
so high a planeas protection of the purse.

Provided for.
The l‘onsolrdalcd road lnve just cbm-
plvted a contract With the Phelps Induc-
tion company of Philadelphia, for con-
structing u railway-transit. telegraph
line between New York and Springfield. ,
The invention is one which has been
repeatedly described. It consists of an
arrangement so devised that telegraphic
messages can be sent. from and received
on moving trains the some as at regular
telegraph stations. The Phelps Indoo-
tiou company will begin to lay the wire
very soon. The Wire is lard in wooden
tubes which arcA placed between the rails
of the track. Instruments will be placed
on all through trains between Sew York
to Boston on the Sprrnzfivld route. P08—
sibly the system will be used on tho ‘
Shore Line divrsion. An operator will
be on each through train and passengers
can send messazvs to any part of, the
United Stuns the same as from reghlnt
telegraph offices. A conductor who
wishes to communicate with another
conductor can do so while the trains are
going at full speed.

misfortune, or inheritance, this has been
done. Aver}: Sarsaparila cleanses the

The reduction of internal revenue ad

Proprietary Medicines, no doubt ha-
largely benefitted consumers, as well u
relieving the burden of borne mann-
facturers. Especiallv is this the case
with Green‘s August and Beaches”:

six cents per dozen, has added _ to
increase the size of bottles containmg

more medicine in the 75 cent nine. The
August Flouw for Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint, and the German Syrup for
Cough and Lung troubles, have perhaps,
the largest sale of any medicine: in the
world. The advantage cf increased size
of the bottles will be greatly appreciated
