An Interview with, m Whaleman. "Cape Horner," himself an old ship? master, relates in the Commercial Bulle? tin tho following interview with nu uuoient mariner: 0.1 but these uld whalemen can tell horrible stories, when they find a credu? lous hearer. Walking one day ou thc pier at Hono? lulu, I spied an auoient mariner. Know? ing well the natnrul proclivities of that class toward a landsman, remembering the keen delight which is Jack's at the prospect of "stuffing" a conceited igno? ramus, I resolved to impersonate such for tho fun of tbe thing. A whuling bark lay opposite us with ber rigging bristling with bone, drying iu . tbe tropical son. I put on a very "stagy" air, and exclaimed: "Heave to, my hearty! what's that brig got in her rope-lrdders?" ?' "Whale's jaw," laconically replied Jack. "How do they got it?" I continued. "Did you never hear the command 'Hold your jaw?' " "Yet, many times." "I thought so; well, you soo when we're whaling whenever a whalo is killed, be spits out bis jaw bones as he dies. Tbe greenest lubber aboard is allays set at boldiug of 'em in, and that's where tbe phrase 'Hold your jaw' came from. He has to keep quiet aud bold on, you know, until we gee ready to poll 'ero ont." "In deed I" "Yes; but my uncle, who was matu of the bark Gulliner, found thom very useful." , "Ab!" "The boat was upset, and everybody but bim drowned; my uncle got on the back of the whale, and, using these jaws for paddles, he-" "Rowed back to the bark," I sug? gested. "Not at.all; be was at sword's points witb the old man, and he paddled direct? ly away from ber." "Off to sea?" "Certainly; whynot? He could live i on the whale's blubber, and, as for drinks, why, every bit of tho water a whale spouts is fresh; that's how Jonah kept alive; that auoient yarn isn't no? thing of a miraole to an old whaleman." "No?" "Of oourse not; the steam boiler takes in Bait water, but the steam is fresh. A whale is just the same; he swallows a few barrels and pumps it out through his spout-holes fresh." .'But, your whale waa dead I" ex? claimed I, thinking I bad caught bim at last. "Havn't you never seen drowning per? sons brought to? O, you have, eh? Well, my rtncib nerved the-whale in the same way; "Iiis lungs expanded naturally in time, then my* nuclu jumped on hjm, bit him a kick in the ribs, which brought the water out his spout-hole. However, bo didn't have to navigate long. He sold bim pretty soon." "Sold bim?" "To be sure; you didn't suppose he'd give bim away, did you. A two hundred barreler, at that; not much. He spoke one vessel, who ouly offered him half price, thinking he'd be glad to get oil'; but it was no go. My undo said that death was better than a trade which be would always be ashamed of; BO bo kept on, until he mst a Frenchman, just out of Tahiti, clean, with advices that oil waa rising in Havre to boot." "And ho bought bim?" "Yes; and Johnny Grupean bad to pay my uncle a rousing price. That whalo was a smasher. We shouldn't bavo had any Northern lights for a year, if be'd reachod tbe North pole." ".What's a whale got to do with tho aurora?" "Yes, a roarer; that's just what I said he wus. You see we old whalemen know everything. Now, here's the earth goes spinning round on its axis; of oourse, there's u mighty site of friction at the North pole, and it makes tho sparks fly off lively. That's what wo call tho North? ern lights." "But they stop now and then?" "Of course, they do. When a whale like my uncle's comes smack against tbe pole, it caves his bead in, and the oil runs down tho axis, lubricating the thing, and all runs easy and smooth for a while. They mako snob a fuss about these* things; if they'd only consult a few practical mon, like whalemen, now, it would all be plain sailing enough." My informant upon matters scientific and nautical wont through the whole course of this dialogue without a smile, or an air tinged by tbe least Bbndo of bombast. When bo finished bis yarn, I hesitated a moment. Should I allow bim to think he had been talking to a green? horn, who did not know tbe difference between a bark and a brig, or should J astonish him by n mass of genuino nun tioal terms, which would show emphati? cally my acquaintance with that element on which he had spent the greater pari c! bis life? The temptation to pursue the lattei oonrse was severe, but only for a momont. ?he ancient mariner bad few joys, and 1 oonld not And it in my heart to turn bit innocent diversion into a joke at bis ex? pense. No, I would allow him to enjoy tbe illusion that he bad completely bum bogged me, and I would rest content ic chuckling over the falsehood to which bc would innocently give utterance, when heehould in future time narrate the story, with many adornments, to sumo whaling crew in a greasy forecastle. So, when he concluded, I gazed earn? estly out to sea, and delivered myseli safely of the following innocent speech. A largo schooner bad just arrived from San Franoisro-the Milton Badger, n vessel on which I was expecting n con? signment that would give me the control of the bran market for a few days. "See that ship," said I; "ibero she'i lowered down ber yards aud is tying up her sails; I must go and seo if shu bringt me mail." "Yards and ship! That's a scboonor aud-" "Good-bye!" exclaimed I; not noticiog Jack's attempt to correct my speech, and walking rapidly up tho wharf. So wo purled oompuuy, each, to thia day, be? lieving iu his heart that he hua cheated his fellow. /V Remarkable Indian Klglit. A member of Troop D, 7th United States Cavalry, writing to the editor of his home newspaper, gives tho following amusing account of tho manner in which Gen. Custer entertained some Chicago visitors, who weut out to his domains for a latin buffalo-shooting: * * * Gue almost equalling it we wituessod when the festive Chicagoeso were with us seeking that little relaxa ti >a from business' cares which they found. After a day's successful chase, the party fourni itself about thirty miles ft om Hayes, tired and hungry. Select? ing a campiug-grouud for the night, fires were soon blazing cheerfully, buffalo and venison steaks rousting and frying nicely, und oh, what appetites to du them justice! Next came wino and cigars, with which the Chicagoeso were well supplied-luxuries for the trooper on the plains generally out of reach, but this one time we had them plenty, and mjoyed them accordingly. Tho Gene? ral, wishing to afford his visitors a little amusement during the evening, enter? tained them with stories of surprise and atrocities committed by Lo, until he had them excited to the proper pitch for pleuBaut dreams, which hu kiudly per? mitted them to enjoy until midnight, when he gave the innocent dreamers a finishing touch. The night proving fa? vorable, tho troopers were divided, al? lowing about forty as an attaokiug party and to represent Iudiaus, the remainder to defend tho camp. Everything iu readiness, tho party ou post loudly ebal langet!, "Who comes there?" A regular war-whoop from the attacking party was the answer received* then a volley from tho carbines, a rattling firo from revolv? ers, shouting, yelling und screaming tho attacking purty making use of all the Indian imaginable, und a great deal more. The sleepers were by this time certainly wide-awake and made to under? stand what was tho matter-thut they were expected to fight, if they expected ever agaiu to see Chicago. Thu brave defenders fought nobly, shooting high n the air, e utreuting the Chicagoese ta stand firm, tight for their homes and firesides, and to fight, bleed and dio foi their oouutry-uever let the stars and stripes be disgraced by allowing a low hundred bloody ludions to whip us; not moro than ten to ono at most, probably leBs; what's tho country good for, if not worth fighting for? Some of them did fight, and from them the most daagei wus apprehended, as they fired at in? stead of over their antagonists. Ol course, they wero quickly pluoed under thu wagous to keep them from shooting somebody. During the lull, one festive old chap wus heard hewuiling hiscutt bitterly: "Oh, why did I leave my home and family, friends mid business, every comfort in tho world, to como out herc sud be scalped hy tho bloody Indians': Oh, dearl oh, dear! what shall I do tc be saved?" At this, somo one told hi?o to grub a root; but hu said ho couldn'l find the root. "Fifty dollars to any ont that will take me out of this," but there was uo taker. Tho fight lasted one hour. Occasionally, some ono would drop, anti either crawl away or be carriod by a fe? comrades, when he would, of course, bl all right aud nguiu pitch in. Finally victory was declared for tho defenders aud then it was the few remaining 01: the list of wotiuded received all the care possible, which meant plenty of wine Quite a number wished they had re ruuined wounded, but it was too late foi that. lu the morning, tho woundei wore reported sont to camp, but some ol the inquisitive wished to know whnt be came of the killed and wounded Indians "Oh, they arc always carried off thi field as soou as they fall." That setllee the matter. Whether the visitors wen iu formed of tho truo state of alburn be fore their return homo, I never learned Ono of them said he would have an ac count of tho fight published. I uevei hud the pleasure of reading tho acoount I Chicago Tribune. A ltoMANTio STORY ABOUT MORGAN. A singular story comen up from th< Western plains, professing to solve th< mystery connected with tho disuppenr ance of Morgan in 182G, un event wbiot created intense excitement throughou tho country in his day, iu consequent of tho supposition that ho hud beer secretly killeel by the Mauous for having published a book betraying their secrets It is now alleged that he was tulum i captive in Texas, where he escaped ant jotneel a band of Apaches. Of course ho married tho chief's daughter, and ii time became the chief, teaching tut tribe military tactics, anil initiating then all into thu mysteries of Masonry. At i good old ago ho died, leaving his half breed son to reign iu his stead, aud i now buried in tho "Golden Mountain,' in a tomb walled up and covered witl solid gold, which has become an Apucb Mecca, where tho tribes all moot yearlj to worship on the 21th of Juno. Tb story is entirely too wild for credence, bu being tho Inst development of what ha: always boen an impenetrable mystery, i is perhaps worthy of a passing noto. Thorburn's Garden Seeds.
