THE OLD FISHERMAN'S OcIltlSTMAS. An affecting littlo story is told la ibe current " Sunday at Heme." We are introduced to James Williams, an old fisherman on the Lancashire coos'-, on Christmas Eve, as ha and his wifo were lamenting the "hard lines" of tha latter years of the'r lives. The a-.thor saya:— Their lot in life had indeed been a hard one. Twelve years ' Well, my life is not much use now, S<jssie, except to you,' ho answered. Some three hourj bad elapsed since Jams i Williams came home, but on this night neither of tho old people wore inclined to retire early.

Bessie gave a scream, and in another moment had recognised her ton, and wan in his arms Who can describe tho joy of the old couple aa they became convinced of the truth of this strange reeurrection. ' Yes, father. I have ome to the old plaoo, yon see,' said John laughing ; ' aud I hope I am somewhat wiser than I was when I went away. I was picked up on a spar by a pasting ship whon you thought me drowned ; and said I, ' They'll not care to hear cf me till I'm a rich man.' So I never wrote. But I've been all over the world now- Australia, California, South America, Indies, East, and West, and where not 1 - and you must not think I am quite as wild as I u> ed to bo—though I was never as b.id as they made me out to b?.' ' No, indeed. Johnny,' Gaid the old woman ; ' and Mary 1 eane did not think you were elthor.' * Mary !—and is B«e really MaTy Deane still ? ' asked the young man in some excitement. ' Ay, lad, and all for the love of you—sbe stood up for you against thsm all, but go and fetch her, James, and let her answer for heisilf,' answered tha exulting mother. James accordingly fetched the young woman, who was the daughter of a neighboring fisherman, and a merry night they had of it. * But, Mvry,' said John, as they sat in a sly corner by themselves. ' will you marry me in suoh rag! as these ? ' ' The clothe3 don't make much difference, Jdhn, she replied. ' Bravo 1 You are a lats after my own hearr, ard--don't talk to me—we'll have a wedding to-morrow,' replied John, kissing her gratefully ; ' as to rags, why here's what will buy us something better.' And he laughed as he threw j'ng'ing on the tabla a he»vy belt filled with coin. " Ha, ha 1 father I haveu't b.= en at ths diggings for nothing, you see.

To have t» learn a new trade at seventy, and with only one arm serviceable, and the burden of a wife who was always ailing—was there anyone whose gaze into the Chiiatmia fire revealed a bleaker prospect than James Williams? * What must we do? What can we do, Jim?' moaned the old woman, as she rocked herself backwards and forwards ; * ah. Jim, if but one of those tino lads had lived,' and she burnt Into tesrfl. •I was just thinking the same thing myself, lass,' said the old man with unusual emotion and hastily dashing away some moisture from bis own eyes; 'but I'll tell you one thiDg we must do; we must jast pat our trust where we always have done. He will not try ua above whit we shall be able to bear.' Then afraid of making a further display of his feelings, the honest old tar snatched wp his weather-beaten cap, and hutrried off with -snme herriogs which he hod promised to take to someone in the little town hard by . , When James reached thetawn of Tidesley, aa we choose to call it. he found more persons in the streets than he expected to see on so stormy a night, and he soon hejrd that a ship had been driven ashore in the bay about an hour before. Af;er leaving his fi'b, therefore, he went to the pier to look at the wreck. The wind had partly pone down, blowing now only in occasional gusts, but the sea was still a roaring, angry, heaving mass of white f o»m, as far as the eye could reaob. It was very cold on the pier, and the spray dashed over it now and then ; but near the end were several groups of fishermen, some deep in consultation, and othern watching the ship, which, howaver, could only be seen when tho moon broke for a brief and occasional instant through the driving clouds. She lay a mile from the pi-r, and on a very shoal called the Churn, which a hidden belt of rooks rmde doubly formidable. 'Now here Is Jim Williams, and I risk him if any boat could livo in suoh a sea. What do you Jim ?' asked a middle-aged fisherman, as James advanced to one of tho gronps. 'Yes, we'll stand by what James say,' cried another, ' Jim, soma say, • Stay, while you're safe;' and some say, 'Try is;' but don't you think we might reaoh her with care.' Jsmes, thus appealed to, gsve a long look round before he answered. ' I don't know lads.' he said at last; ' it is a fearful risk, tbe Churn on a night like this.' 1 Come now, Jim,' said another;' you have been on the < hum on a wcrso night than thiB, or our old mates tell me lies. * ' Ay, is it an American ship, the Florida ; but I wsb younger then, Matthew, and I really don't think the breakers wera quite as rough that time ' replied the old man, shaking his head ; ' as it was, it was the mercy o' heaven that we were not all drowned, like the forty a a von poor Yankees we could not rescue But you want my opinion for tonight?' 'Yes, Jim ; if you'll go ; and if you won't, we won't—the poor beggars must drown, that's all,' they cried. James considered anxiously an issue that might involve suoh f ttal consequences. Bis heart leaped up to save the unfortunate wretches on the chip, but how if the attempt only ended in himself and a dozen of the brave Tidesley lads being drowned as well I He thought of the wail of mothers, widows, and crphaus, which there might bi in Tidesley next day, and he thought ton of his own poor Bessie silting alone, old and helpless ; what would become of ber if this new misfortune happened ? Well might he watch the state of the sea long before he spoke. But as he still hesitated, a young man stepped up to him from one of the groups, and tapped him on the shoulder. ' Jim, you were sent,'said the newcomer; ' I wos just telling them there is no man in Tidesley who oan steer a boat on the Churn to-night but you ; and here you are !' James had much of the old Paritanio feeling with regard to special call* and interpositions, and this voic j at his elbow decided him. * Well, then, mates,' ho said; ' I will go with you ; I think it just possible that we may reach her. My arm ia not worth much, hat I think it will hold out in a case like this, an i poor Besiiie must take her chance.' The boat was soon launched and filled with twelve bravo fallows, the old man Electro-plated Spoons, Knives and Forks, Cruets, Tea and Coffee Services, Egg Frames, Biscuit Boxes, Side Dlahea, Dish Covers, Soup Tureens, Salvers, Trays, &o.

She was first OUT. placed in COinCuiaaiuu uu .suuts xcol, uuuet Captain ErBkine, the present Commodore of the station, with a ship's company of 553 officers and men. Her length is 230ft between perpendiculars and 280 feet overall; breadth, 6Ufc ; load draught forward, 24ft Gin, and aft, 27ft Sin. Her depth of hold is 23ft 8in. The area of her midship section comprises 1319 square feet, and her engineroom is 80 feet loner. Her hor<?e power is 6000, and she carries 1200 tans of coal. The cost to the British Government of tha Nelson was ,£4,03,744, of which sum .£3i6,772 was for hull and .£86,972 for machinery. The vessel may be described as an " armourbelted cruiser" of the latest and most formidable type. She is a Bister ship to the Northampton. She has a bolt of armour amidships 180ft long and 9in thick, extending from 4ft above the water line to 5ft below. This armour, it will be observed, does not extend the whole length of the vessel. The extremities of the veosel are entirely unprotected by armour, but this is considered rather an advantage than otherwise, as it permits a ehell to pass right through the slrp and burnt outside rather than inboard, as it would do if its velocity were impeded by passing through armoured plate in the first in .tance. The Nelson has an armoured deck below the water line, and the hatches are protected for some distance above the water lino by iron combings. The armoured deck covers the engine-room, and tha steering gear is also protected. Crossing the vessel at the termination of the belt of armour, at each end of the vessel, is an armoured bulkhead, extending from the bottom of tho belt 5ft below the water line to the upper deck. From the bottom of these Mis 2 4 5 6 9 11 14 17 21 24 26 27 29 31 Stations. p.m. 3.55 4.2 ■ 4.19 4.21 4.35 V 4.5S 5.14 5.31 V 5.54 6.5 6.25 trom— Cbriatohuroh ... ... dep.
