From Purler's Si.irit tS tlm How Capt- John Duncan Got That Dent I in his Head. Von want to know how Capt. John Dun- j can irot thiit dent in liis head ; very well, J'11 tell you all I know about it. I met him at Buonos Ay res, South America, it? the year 1855?not long ago, you see ; he was in command of a tidy , little Scotch brig, called the " Sandy."-? Now, John was an old trader at the port, and well posted up in the various means of amusement, the greatest of which was horseback ridim?. I inn hv ?i<? mnnnu indifferent horseman?I rather pride myself on my skill. So Jolm rind I were to ho soon nearly every day galloping oil' towards the open country. He also prided himself considerably on his horsemanship, and an innocent way lie had of showing it; for whenever he met a </aurho, he would nit bolt upright in his saddle, as if he had ! been suddenly attacked with stiff back.? Hut when he chanced to pa: .s a fair seignovita, it was really refreshing to see him.? Then be would twist his hat jauntily on one side, twirl his huge mustachios, and by dexterously ' cininjj in on the curb bit. mul pricking slightly with tho spurred heel, flic animal on which lie rode would curvet- I in most royal style ; nnd then to see his inciting dances?but I forget! what you want to know is how Quptain John Duncan got that dent. Well, I'll tell you. Of'I course, you understand by this time that i lie had a dent ! Now, I'll tell you where the dent was. It was in his head, on the right or left temple?1 don't distinctly remember which, hut luckily it's a point of small consequence. Tho reason I saw the dent at all, was, I suppose, that it was impossible to look at liis face, without seeing it. My curiosity j was early excited to know how he came by j such a stranire misfortune, and I made up ; my mind to find it out, sooner or later, bv ' hook or crook. How to do it, was i.he next thing; but hero circumstance l'avorod what philosophy could not devise. The dent was of a very curious look? how to describe it, I don't know. Sometimes it lookud ns if some one had shot ft pea at him, out of a patent pop-gun, and liad thus driven flesh and all right into his right or left temple, I forget which. It looked as though some one had punched his head. Hut?I keep forgetting ; what j'ou want to hear about is, how Capt. John j Duncan got that dentin his head. You must bear in iniml flmf tl.Iu I > v"' *yu" j <1 c 111 was a source of earnest speculation to ino ; liiat L was forever, that in, it was never?in short it puzzled inc. Of course I was delighted when the mystery was at last solved. The way it came about was Komechinp; like this: Captain John Duncan said trine, says he, " .Mr. Jones'1?lie always called rnc by uncommon and startling names?" arc you dry?" Now, as it hadn't been raining and as T hadn't wet myself in any way, I said, " Captain John Duncan, lam dry." In a few more minutes wo were quietly seated at a littlo table, in a quiet saloon, doing our very host to quench our thirst and moisten our throats. u nc more we drank, tlie thirstier we pot; ' nt Inst lie turned to me, atul says he, " Mr. Joucs?Mr. Jones." Says I, "What?" Hays lie, " I'm very dry," and immediately ho commenced to drink again. What with wit and wine, an hour was not long rn pawing. At the end of an ' hour my eyes wore aft good aaall tho other | HonsCH, nrixed up in a meal bag and shook j together ; if they wero not, why then they j ir.UHt have deceived mo. At any rate, 1 I happened to look at Captain John IHtnean, J after 1 had taken a good many tumblers of i WJfjjP, ?nd instead of one dent, I saw six or j R?>vrn M'liie ?uv/'/ln/l r??n oa T I - 1'""".^" " ? ? "? ? J"< Qtoofliod my hcnd with my two hands and brought my oyen to hoar upon hid right, or left, temple?I forgot which. I then tried to perform an abstruse mathamatipal calculation ; hut twutand turn it as 1 would, j couldn't deduct seven from six to save myself j and what's more, I h?vo never found any calculous deep enough to do it for me. While T wag twisting and turning it, (not my head, you know, the calculation,) Captain John Duncan caught sight of my two qyot? tooling at kit* six % wvoa tfOQtfy i * ' V ,? i \ & 0 and says he, ' Mr. dones!" (lie always 011 called mc by hcroid names,) Mr. Jones V' "> Says I ? \Vhnt." _ ; ed fi.'ivs ho, " 1 >oyou see th.it dent, Mr. an Jones 7" and ho put his finger to bin right ell or loft temple, T forgot which, but luckily pi that's a point of suiull couscquenco. I ? Say* I. "I do." ! fri Says lie, " L>o you know how I got that ; m dent ?" i hi Says 1, t! I ijoii't." ; A Says he, " Will you promise mo never sp to reveal it if 1 toll you 7 Confidence, Mr. hi Jones ; coufidoiiee, you know." | he " I am all ears and u!l right, Captain wl John Duncan," says 1. And then he just told me how he got that dent in his head. Says ho: " When I was in Marseilles, Franco, in ?v L'hnrge of one of the finest clippers ever built in Scotland, I spent the major pirt of ta my time and money ashore. As 1 had j considerable time, and plenty of money to i tr< help it along, I was never at a loss for a un friend. Why, bless your cood heart. 1 i u| was sometimes annoyed, for thoy wore as thick as Highlanders at a prayer-meeting. u<; I couldn't go a block without one of my '< wi friends inviting nie to tako wine. They j it" were liberal-hearted fellows, fonder of ta- ] wi king a drink than paying for it. The af- J foot ion thoy displayed for nie would have j li< drawn tears from my eyes, had it not I to drawn so much gold from my pocket.? I a One of the most generous-hearted follows ! hi of the whole lot, borrowed a thousand i *] francs frotu me. and then, because I asked ; of him for five dollars one day, grew highly indignant and cut my acquaintance. I do- |T innnded sin oxnbm.'itiun uml tin \V satisfaction?coffee and pistols. 1 dctnan- | v< dod my thousand francs ; and, in return, ; had the pleasure of receiving a gentleman, i hi who assured me, in the plcasantcst way j rt: possible, that nothing but my death could j to heal the wound which his friend's honor j hi had sustained. This exasperated me, and i'l I told the gentleman that were his friend, '? now 1113' enemy, present I should have the 01 pleasure of kicking his honor. He replied that he was sorry that I should feel nf at all annoyed, for he desired the little af- h fair to be mutually agreeable ; that, per- tl sonally, he esteemed me, particularly since he had now the pleasure of makinsr inv no- i tl fjuaintance. This so flattered me that I immediately called for a bottle of champagne, : tl of which lie drank the major part; which, ; tl considering that he held that rank in the , hi army, was very proper. The duel was im- .hi mediately arranged. j m " In the preliminaries it was agreed that "> a champagne breakfast should be ordered tl out (if town, at the place of meeting ; and : ai that (ho man who was killed should pay for I it. Of course breakfast was reserved till 1 fe after the duel. C " We met ! Wo measured out the paces! tv We fired ! And the next I know I found to myself in bed with tl is ugly dent in my tl head, an enormous bill to pay for a break- t?i rasi oi which i nuu never lasieu a morsel, l id And tlint's the way 1 irot Hint dent." j tH I f.t looking at Captain .John l)uncan r< for some time after lie had finished his yarn without saving a word, linw much hi longer 1 might lnivo said not'ling I don't V know, hut he snd Jenly interrupted me by J saying, "Mr. Jones! 3Ir. Jones!" Ii Pays T, " What." * fu Hays he, " Don't you fee] dry?" w Says I, " I do feel kind of parched in pi my throat, Captain." it And so we called for more toddy, and 1 W really don't know whether we had more " pleasure or toddy. Homo how or other, hi with every glass wo turned down, our thoughts seemed fairly kicking to turn out. " At Inst t'nptain .John Duncan could hold w in 110 lonjjor, and interrupting nic in the ni midst of a laugh which 1 was enjoying all s;i by myself. Says ho, " Mr. .Jones!'' ?i At first I didn't say anything, and thon d; afterwards I didn't say anything; hut ci putting my right hand to the right side of hi my head and my loft hand to the left side tl of my head, and kept on saying nothing, tn However, in the midst of it ho again in- it torruptod lue. Says ho, Mr. Jones !" it Says I, " What ?" Says ho, 41 Hid you ever noticc that dent i n my teniple ?" jti Somehow or other his memory scorned to have grown wonderfully short. So fo when he asked me that question. I just ta looked at him?I mean at one of him, for si there wore three or four of him, and six or seven donts for each. ta Says T, "Captain, pray tell me how it was you got that dent in your head?"? tr And then lie told mc how it was. ?i Says he?but before lie commenced ho fo took another toddy?says he, " You see, I en was travelling in Spain, and being much I ,)f pleased with the aneici t city of Seville, at determined to abandon the sea and set up b; my carriage, marry a rich heiress and set- tli tie down. vi " The scignorita?but I cannot mention w; her name?honor, yoti know, Mr. Jones, w hotior, sir, honor,!" and ho flapped at his wi breast, but missing it., knocked his tutu- nj bier on the floor, breaking it in pieces. It en cost him, including the ii jtior, 18 ceuts. ! nr But here I go agaiu ! Ot " Well," says he, " the fair seignorita j ti? tpo u Qniil f A ) iimwi r* o/-?11?

I found tli out the phyMtoinn by whom )ier family was t!i attended, and found out at the same time n< that lie wag principally addicted to rum M and money. Accordingly I kept him in w a pleasant state of intoxication as well as in loose ohango. To prove how thorough- t?

As the glasfles were aeed on the tablo, Captain John Duncan -and ho was as polite a man as ever rciincd from the gambler's profession? itdc a low bow. So low did he bow that s head rested on the table and ho slept, ftrr waiting some time I ventured to cak to him?still ho slept. I shouted to m?still lie slept. I shook him?still i slept. As a last resort I imbibed his liskey?he awoke with a start. " Captain John Duncan !" says I. " Yes," says he. " I want to hear the rest of your yarn," ys I. So, having twirled the ends of his muschios, he held forth as follows : " Well, as T before said, the Doctor inxluced me to the seignorita, and I got re and more in love, every time I called )on her. Slio was very rich. Such eyes ! leh hair ! Such shoulders ? Such h-i-ccfh ! Well, as I was iijroinjr to sav. there is nn awful bijr Spaniard who always vi?< d tlio house, it seemed to me, when I is there. I heard, afterwards, that lie id tlio same of 1110.

He refus1 to apologize, and accordingly we fought. 41 Thurst, parry, lunge.! The (irbt I knew 'tcr the duel, was finding myself in bed, sentinel pacing in front of the door, and lis infernal dent in my head." " Is that a fact?" said I. " is that really ic way in which you got that dent?" n nu. .! 1 ? t 1 * * - i ii.ii ? tnu way i n(?i. uuu uoni ; ana int mean little Italian Count ran off with ic lady," replied Captain John Duncan, is eyes flashing lire at the bare rememranee of the indignity of his coin?1 ?an honor, had suffered. It was but a omont, however, that his eyes so sparkled, icy then assumed their common lustre, id more whiskey was called for. And there we sat, drinking toddy, and elinj; as snu^ as a lrog in ;i puddle.? iiptain John had two n ips, an 1 onco or rice time went by without my beiii;; able i account for it.

"ell, I said to Captain ?)uhn Duncan, Oaptaiu Duncun,you promised to tell me jw you got that dent in your head." " So I will, so I?hi ce ugh," said ho.

" Ti'll me the history." I orderly cried. " Yes," replied Captain John, " that'* ist what I'm goinj; to do. " .My early reading, especially niy luve r his'i-try and the Arabian Nij/lits Kutoriu incuts, early impressed nlV with a dore to view the in igniGoeneeof the Indies." " Do you mean the Wc-st Indies, Capin ?" I asked, interrupting him. Tho Captain twirled liis inustachios, coni-^icd his eyebrows, and answered, "No, r, I do not mean the West Indies; 1 rer, sir, to the Kast Indies." He then mtiuued : " In accordance with my love glory, I took the shipping to the Kast, id landed at tho prineipal port of Bom iy; whonco I immediately set out for ie interior countries, and entered the serce of one of the most potent Icings. A ;ir Wiia then waging, the fierceness ol liich threatened to involvo the whole urld, including tho Hast Indian Co'.npaI W;is appointed Captain of a body ol ivalry ; our weapons Consisted of a lance id short-sword.

To know what is nearest us in i time ami space, is most necessary, most pleasing ami most instructive* ami this kind of knowledge c.m only be obtained from newspapers. We would venture to aifiriu that there never was, and never will be in a country situation, an igi)uranl family who take a newspaper, as it is iinpossib'e that a family should Hot become in time well informed, provided they live I sufficiently Rcehided to be thrown upon the paper as a source of amusement. The dullest child who hates a book will, in rainy weather, steal up to u newspaper, read a marriage notice and an advertise ment or two, and then put it down.

By thin time his curiosity on most subjectn is excited, and overcomes his aversion and fear ol' hooks, and he is iurcd Oil to become a reading and well-informed man. It is strange that any family, as a measure of economy, should bo without a ncwspiper. Children see the world cheaply at home, in a newspaper, without the danger of bad association 01 the expense of travel. Kkspkct to tm k Auki>.? Bow low the head, boy. Do reverence to the oid man.
