CAPT. ROBERT BROWl"S
WHALING GUX.VATEXT UOMB LANCES
AND GUN HAIU'OUXS
AFTElt SEVERAL YEARS LABOR AXD
cierimentinfr Uon whales, on Uk whaling jrrouml, with
his apparatus, combined with the advantages ol being a practical
whaleman, the I'atentee has 1eeii enabled to obtain an instru
ment iu form of a liomb Lance, which for utility and effective
ness cannot be excelled.
The attention of Agents and Officers of whale-ships is called
to the following testimonials.
San Francisco, January 10, 1S5C.
Capt. II. lii'.ow.N Sir I take this opportunitv to inform
you that we used those Bomb Lances we bought of vou, and
found them to be of great benefit in capturing whales amongst
the ice.
lbe ht st whale that we usel th Bomb Lance on was killed
in the following manner . The boat went alongside of the whale
and the boat-steerer fired a Bomb into him acd then fastened to
him with a gig iron : the Bomb was heard to explode, and the
vrhale did not Wow after the Bomb exploded. The above-mentioned
whale was in tin; ice, and it is our opinion that we should"
not have got that whale and many others that we did get, if it
had not been for your Bomb Lances, and we fully recommend
theiu to the attention of those fitting out whale ships,
llespcctfully yours,
Thomas Wall, Master bark Georye.
IIONOi.rxc, March 17, 1S56.
Catt. Robert Brow My dear Sir: I used your Bomb
Lances in taking a whale, north, the past season, winch made
250 bbls. of oil. We never could have taken him without said
Lances, as our boats could not get near enough to use the com
mon hand lance.
Yours Respectfully,
G. L. Cox, Master whale-ship Magnolia.
HoxoLvi.r, March 15, 1S56. ,
Catt. Bohf.rt Browv Dear Sir I take thi opportunity?
to inform yni that I used your Bombs on the voyage in the ship
IferaJ, and found them effective in taking whales, and would
recommend them to all whalemen, and especially around the ice.
I also used the harpoon and got most of the whales by your
Guns and apparatus.
Yours Respectfully,
Isaac Allks, Master ship Herald.
Other testimonials can be seen by calling on the undersigned,
Agents, who have the Guns, Bomb Lances and Harpoons for
sale.

44 Well, what is it, bright cvoi ?"
"Why, mother?
Why, I see your little heal is busy about souie
thinr. I should like to know what it is."
44 How funny, mother, you always guess me out."
44 Well, what is it, Jenny?"
Why nothing; only to-day, mamma, at recess,
we were talking about vacation ami Thanksgiving,
and the good time we were going to have the new
things for winter, and the goodies, and so on; and I
noticed that Sarah Weaver didn't say anything, but
looked as if she was just going to cry; and when Anna
Barker asked her what she was going to have, she
didn't look up for a minute, and then she said " I
do not know as anything I don't know as we shall
even have any Thanksgiving." Just then the bell
rang, and I saw her lip quiver as she turned to her
seat. You know her mother is real poor, and is not
very well. Jane says that they used to live better
than they do now, and that Mrs. Weaver never knew
want or sorrow till within a few years. I suppose
she cannot get Sarah and Nellie new clothes very
often, though I should think they must have some
thing this winter. Their clothes now are the same
they were last winter, and then they were thin and
scantv."
"Is that fill?"
' No. Anna and Mary IJurbank and I have been
trying to think if we couldn't help something towards
a Thanksgiving for them. Not much, to be sure, but
then a little would make poor Sarah thankful, I know
and she is such a dear, good girl, mamma."
" Well, what does my little, heart-full girl purpose
doing?" asked Mrs. Washburn, smiling.
44 1 do not quite know, mamma, but Mary Burbank
says her mother will let her give Sarah her flannel
cloak that she has a little out-grown: it will be large
enough for Sarah ; and Anna Barker is going to ask
her father to let her take some raisins and sugar out
of his shop to carry to them. Then Lodie Nelson Raid
she had twenty cents that her mother gave her for
chores that she did last week, and she would buy a
piece of calico to make Nellie a new apron. But I do
not quite knovr what to do. I haven t any money,
and my old dresses and things you will want to
44 make down" fur Clare and Bessie. If I had eight
cents I could buj- some yarn and knit some mittens.
I know she hasn't got any, and then, mamma, I
thought perhaps you would let me carry Mrs. Weaver
a pie or something. I couLI carry her eome milk, at
any rate."
" Well, I must sajT, Jenny, you have laid quite a
pretty little plot for three such madcaps as you are.
I will certainly try to help you."
"O, will you, mamma! How? I knew you
would?" exclaimed Jenny, delightedly. "Mamma,
what will you do?"
" I will iliink about it at present. That is all I
can do now. But I will contrive something."
" Contrive V I'll warrant you are contriving
something. I never saw. another such a mother (or
wife either,) to find ways and means, or rather make
them, when there are none!" and a third person,
with a very loving expression, though withal a sad
one, shut the door which he had quietly opened a
minute before, and so overheard the planners. " I
wish you would help me contrive again, Mary," said,
he, as he took the chair Jenny had jumped from, and
drawn to the fire for him.
44 Why, papa, who ever thought of your being in
hearing?"
44 Why, didn't you want me to hear? There, the
bell rings, puss; 'tis time for you to be at school;"
and in a second Jenny was away, leaving her father
and mother in silence, which was unbroken for
several minutes. Mrs. W.'s face had taken on an
anxious expression, which her quick eye had caugh
from her husband, and full of fears, she sat gathering,
or trying to gather, strength to meet his discourage
ment. She knew that they were poor, and that he
was several hundred dollars in debt, and had been
for several years, and she rightly conjectured that
something relating thereto had brought the shade to
her husband's usually cheerful brow.
44 Mr. Penley wants that money, Mary, and I don't
know where I am to get it."
44 1 feared so. Is it due ?"
44 Yes, to-day; and I have failed of selling that lot
of hay I hoped would pay him, and I don't know
where to go. Hay and corn are both very low, and
what I hoped would pay all my debts this year will
not pay one-third. Mary, I do not know what wc
are going to do. I have been going behindhand for
the last three years; every year pinches me up closer,
and I believe I am growing discouraged. It sickens
mc to see you toiling early and late, and scanting
yourself and children of comforts which you earn ten
times over, and which you ought to have for nothiiwr,
and I am ashamed to come and tell you how poor we
are still, I can go nowhere else. I even look forward
to the time when all I have shall pass out of my
hands."
44 O, no, no, no, husband, do not say so ! Has not
Providence always provided for us when the way was
dark? If wc still "labor and pray," and act accor
ding to the best of our judgment, I know the way
will be made plain tons. We have enough, twice
told, to pay our debts, haven't we?"
44 Yes, if it were salable, but it is not, and will not
be for a long timo to come, and, meantime, my
interest is accumulating. I must find something to
meet Penley 's demand andean, I suppose, hy taking
what I had laid by for your need and the children's
for the winter. But that I shall not do, for I could
not rc-placc it."
I 44 Is that all ? Why, then, husband, Uke it, by all
i means. 1 am surprised you should hesitate. Do you
' not know I dread nothing so much as debt, nothing
t discourages mo so much."
j 44 I know that full well, but I do not think it right
J that you should miss what you so much need. I know
j that you have, for the last three four years, done
! what I never saw any other woman do, and that is
dress better, more bciommgly, than anybody else,
upon one quarter that sutlices, or does not suffice to
make my neighbors' wives and daughters presenta-
! ble."
Mrs. W. blushed Iier appreciation of this compu-
ment. and answered:
! 44 Let me try my skill again, then. How much had
! you laid by for me ? You know last winter we fchou d
1 have paid one hundred dollars if we had not had so
! much sickness. Wc did pay .'."
j 44 Yes, I know; but not on the old debts. I was not
expecting mat 0111. i pant it, oe sure, aim 1 nope to
pay half as much this year, besides sixty dollars fur
you and the children."
44 You must pay more than that. Sixty dollars for
me. Let me see a set of furs, twenty dollars. Aunt
Mary has given m her great muff, which, I think,
will make me a comfortable cape, and I have pieces
of the same kind of fur, that will make cuffs. Call
that twenty dollars yours, Wilton. Then a cloak, fif
teen dollars; I can find a piece of thibet (laid by till
I had forgotten it,) which will, brushed up and
pressed over, make me a large cape, and I have some
old velvet trimmings that are not half worn, that 'fvill
trim it good as new. I shall want a bit of silk and
wadding for lining, and I shall be obliged to have a
dress call that five. My bonnet has already been
dressed and trimmed over. I shall need nothing
more."
Mr. Washburn looked at her face, ten times hap
pier that if she had just learned that she was to be
adorned for the winter in 44 silk and purple," and
wondered whether she was a sister to the rest of wo
mankind or not; but he said nothing, except
44 But the children."
44 Yes. Jennv.will need one new dres at least. I
; can do well enough for Clare and Bessie with making
i down. I can make a pretty cloak for Jenny out of a
j discarded dress of my own,' and oh, some way, dear
i Wilton. Only you take fifty dollars of the sixty, and
I will do with ten."
I " T wonder whjir. von think of yourself, Mary,"
said the voice of Aunt Mary, who had came in un
noticed, and sat quietly during this colloqity. " If I
was in your place, I wouM taKe wnat money 1 couia
cet. for vou need-it bod enough. I could tell Wilton
! twenty of your own needs that ycu have never men
tioned."
44 Why, Aunt Mary ! How can you !"
44 How can I ! I say it provokes me to see you
work and slave as you do, and then pinch yourself
down to the smallest possible amount that you can do
with, to help Wilton. The men don"t know any thine
about a woman'g needs, or her self-denials, either."
44 1 believe that is true, Aunt Mary: and I felt a
if I were wrong in listening to you, sweet wife, but
you always-
Now, Wilton Aunt Marv, I forbid you uttering
one lomocstrauce, for in this thing I shall do a I
please. I shall not use that fifty dollars."
44 You'd better take the whole, Wilton," muttered
Aunt Mary. 44 Ten chances to one she doesn't give
half of that ten away. It would be just like her."
44 She may do what she pleases. I am not afraid
to trust her," said the husband.
44 Iu all probability I shall spend a part of it in the
pleasure of giving; I call that one of my needs. I
have read somewhere, Wilton, that 4 giving does net
impoverish;' and yet again, that 4 there is that
scattereth, and yet increuseth.' Wilton, I have
sometimes felt that we were too little in the habit of
considering those poorer than ourselves. I fear we
have withheld 4 more than was meet,' oftenlimes.
and that it has tended to poverty.' "
44 O, nonsense," muttered Aunt Mary, flinging
herself out of the room.
44 Poor Aunt Mary," laughed Mrs. W. ; 44 1 dare
say she will go straight and hunt out something of
her cast-off clothing to help me carry out my plans.
She has a kind heart, after all, when she finds her
fretting does no good."
44 But, Mary "
Just then a knock was heard, and Mr. Washburn
went out. Mrs. W. dropped her work, and laid her
head on the table with an anxious heart, which she
had not shown her husband. She was, in reality,
anxious those debts should be paid, and that speedily,
for she felt that neither of them could work to any
purpose while the disheartening incubus lay upon
them.
44 Mother," said little Sarah Weaver, "do you sup
pose everybody is really thankful when Thanksgiving
Day comes, whether they have everything they want
or not ? "
44 Ah, my darling ! you are thinking of your poor,
little, worn shoes, and your worn shawl Wc must
not forget that we have very much to thank our
Heavenly Father for, if our wants are not all supplied.
Providence is very, very good to us. and I hope wo
shall be very far from unthankful to-day. If you
will bring some more chips, I will make breakfast
rea.ly soon, and we shall have some time to read be
fore wc go to church. I have got a pie and a piece
of cheese for our dinner, so we will not mind if wc do
have to ent potatoes Thanksgiving morning. Run
along, and I will call Nellie up."
44 (, mother, how cold my lingers are. I wish I
could have some mittens this winter. I know I can't,
be sure, and 'tis no matter," she added, as she saw
a grieved look on her mother's face. 44 Do not mind,
mamma," she said, 44 1 was only thinking how tho
rest of the girls are all having their new winter things
ready for Thanksgiving. I can put my hands under
my shawl, so. Hark I heard a knock."
The door opened, and a boy entered, bringing a
baiket, which he deposited on the floor, and then
going out, returned with a box, which was liicewise
left n the floor, without a word of comment, b.irah
darted forward, and read upon a card nailed on tho
cover of the basket. 44 For Sarah Weaver, from
her schoolmates and their mothers hoping she will
have a happy Thanksgiving." The basket was first -
uncovered, displaying three tempting looking pies.
These were soon transferred to the table; and next
were pulled out a paper of raisins, a paper uf figs, a
little box of nuts, a pound of coffee, and two papers
of sugar. Then a brace of chickens, a large piece of
squash, and a two pound lump of butter. By this
time Nellie's bright faco had made its appearance.
Her eyes opened wide as Sarah sprang towards her,
exclaiming. 44 O, Nellie ! do you know how to be
thankful ? Now we can have a pie for breakfast, and
as nice a pudding for dinner as mamma can make,
and that is very nice indeed. And see, here at this ;
corner is a nice loaf of cake. U, mamma! it is asr
good as wedding cake, I dare say, for it looks like it. -Mrs.
Weaver's heart was full, but she rejoiced- -more
for the gladness thus brought to the hearts" of, ;
her young children, than because of a good dinner.--.
in prospect, or of wants supplied. The basket rifled :
of its contents, Sarah's nervous hand feel upon tho '
box, but her mother had to open it, and Nellie utter;-''
ed a cry of delight as she dragged from the top two
pretty blue hoods, on which a card lay, marked in
large" letters 44 Sarah awl .Xtllie, ivith love of
JIary and Isabel Anthony." Next, Mrs. W. drew,
out a pair of nice warm shoes, marked 44 Charles
Crispin." 44 (), that is Hannah Crispin's father,"
siid Sarah. ,4l sit near her, and she knew my shoes
were full of holes, for I saw her look at them the other
day, and then look at mc, and I wondered why, and
I could not help crying a little. Now, Nellie, you
can have mine, which are too small for me, you know.
What is that pretty plaid?" A dress but little worn,
which Nellie declared was just what she wanted.
The next pull brought one larger, and of different
plaid, marked 44 Sarah, from her dear friend, Jane
Jlurbanky" and some pieces of the same rolled out
from it. Next came a bundle of calico, marked
44 A17iV, from Lodie .-Ma-oi," and another piece ,
marked 44 Sarah, from JTartha" then a pair of
socks, which Nellie forthwith appropriated; .and then
a nice llmnel cloak, with no name, but which Sarah
knew must be from Mary Burbank. Then two pair3
of nicely knit mittens then some skeins of yarn; and
then came a big package 44 For Jfrs. Weaver , with '
kind love of JWary Warner.1" Unrolled, it proved
to be a pattern of nice cashmere plaid. 44 That is
Jenny Washburn's queer Aunt Mary," said Sarah.
44 Who would have thought such a thing from her
Underneath the dress was a few yards of flannel, and
a two dollar note fastened on it; at the )ottom was
folded a nice, warm, woollen shawl, marked 44 JUr.
Weaver, witk kind regards of Jlfrs. Humphreys,'
and a little basket filled with sugar-plums 44 From
Lettie Humphreys" emptied the box. When Sarah
took out the last things, she looked up to sec her
mother crying. She was crying, too, the next
moment, in her arms, and Nellie kneeling by her
side. Wh n she could speak, Sarah said : 44 Mother,
how wicked I am ! A little while ago I felt as if I
could not be much thankful to-day, -we needed so
many things that we could not get and now it seems
as if I never can be thankful enough. I can't tell it;
I have to cry it"
44 Come Clare, Jenney, Aunt M iry where are
you all? Here is mother, and here is Bessie and
here is Clare. Come ! Do uot make the turkev
wait!"
44 They are coming, papa. They just ran over to
Mrs. Weaver's to carry a few slices of roast, and seme
of mamma's nice jelly. Here is Jenny, and I can
hear Aunt Marv."
44 Yes, here she comes grumbling," said Mr. W.
44 What is it now, sister ? Anybody stepped on you,
or bitten you, or anything?"
44 Why, Jenny was in such a fever that I had to
run, almost, to keep pace with her that was all,"
said Aunt Mary, biting her lips to keep down the
smile that wanted to come. Aunt Mary was decid
edly in her best humor, and the children took ad
vantage of it.
44 I'll tell you, j apa, a secret, may be," whispered
Clare, loudly. 44 Auntie has been making Mrs. Weav
er a present, and she feels so happy that she has
helped her to something to be thankful for, that sho
has to grumble to hide her own thankfulness.'
44 Auntie" shook her head ominously at the little
tale-teller, but that proved only the signal for another
fire. 44 Papa," said little Bessie, as she held -her
plate for a drumstick, 44 Auntie Mary made ma
present, too, to-3ay."
44 Oh, pet ! what was it, pray?"
44 A nice new dress like Jenny's, and a creat.
pretty doll."
44 Indeed ! well, she meant you should be thankful
for once; do you suppose you are ?"
44 Why yes, papa, and so is mamma, too, I guess,
for she gave her ever so many yards of warm flannel.
