IN A MONSTER'S EMBRACE. 8UXS1.TIONS Of A MAS WHO (JOTS INTO TJIK CI.UTCItKS OP A DEVII. KISII. "We were lying nbout half a mile off tho beach at tho Bnrbailocd, over hauling tho standing rigging," said Jnracs Glllis, ablo seaman, "when tho mate ordered John Webb, nu apprentice boy, and myself into tho yawl, which had been covered and brought around to the port Hide, that some painting might be done just abaft tho mainmast. It was a terri bly hot day, with the water very warm nnd tho men having little energy. The paint was lowered down to us, and while I used tho brush the boy held tho yawl in posi tion. We had been at work for about a quarter of an hour when the bov suddenly yelled out in affright, and as I turned to him he declared that he had seen a horrible looking object pass under the boat, and ho on under the ship. There arc plenty of strange crea tures floating about in those waters, and a natch of seaweed will some times assume a queer shape. I laughed at the boy's fears, but at the same time saw how pale and frightened he looked. " What's wanted below there?' called tho mate as he leaned over the rail, having hoard Webb's cry of alarm. " 4I I saw something go under tho boat, sir.' " 'Oh, you did. Well, if you bawl out again you'll feel something go under your jacket.' "T linrrnn wnrk nnrnin. nnd ll!l(l been at it only three or four minutes when the yawl heaved away from the ship two or three feet, and at the same instant tho boy screamed out again. His voice had scarcely reached my cars when something flashed before my eyes, something caught my arm and pulled it down and pinned it fast to my body, and in five seconds more I knew what had happened. A devil fish had flung one of his arms about me. Webb was screaming at tho top of his voice, and as I got a look at him I saw that two of the beast's feelers wero clutching him. The arm or feeler winch had reached mo pinned my arm to my side as if in u vise, making a clean wrap mound my body, and tho extreme end of the feeler crept up along my neck nnd fate. Talk of pain; I never felt anything like it. The teeth of a bulldog couldn't have hurt worse. It was a burning, biting, blistering sensation, as if a live coal had been laid on the flesh. I added my yells to those of Webb, but before any ono came to the rail I was jciked to my knees in the boat and saw that the creature's object was to pull me overboard. I heard the boy go down and thrash about, and then three of the men came to our assistance. "Tho devil fish had outwitted him self. Ho had gone under tho ship and fastened to her bottom or keel, and as soon as he began pulling on us he of course pulled the yawl close against the ship's side. That closed the gap, nnd he could not pull us OTcrboard, although I think ho would have upset the yawl, for we were both down on her starboard side and she was almost on her beam ends when the men jumped down. They began to cut and slash and hack with their knives, and after two or three minutes they had us free not of the arms, but of the creature. We were hoisted on board howling and groaning, with tho feelers still biting, and they had to be cut from us almost by inches. Webb got it far worse than I did, as lie wore a thin cotton shirt and was barefooted. Ho was bitten on one foot, both hands and across tho breast, and it was a long two weeks before he was on deck again, his faco swelled up until ono eye wns closed, and the poison made mo ill for many days. Wherever one of the cups or suckers took hold tho skin was entirely taken off, nnd it seemed as if pins had been stuck in the raw flesh. A native doctor brought mo somo herbs of which to make a poultice; and, though that relieved the pain and helped me to get around again, it was months before ray face was entirely well." New York Sun. AFGHANISTAN. New York, Feb. 21 The Slar'a London cablegram says : Despatches from India state that Russian agents arc organizing another rising of the Ghilzai tribes against England's ally, the Ameer of Afghanistan. Tho Ghilzai chiefs have received large supplies of Russian arms, nmuuition and trcasuro, and aro act ing under tho direction of Russian olllcers. Tho enormous concentra tion of Russian troops and war material at Mnrv, Samarcand and strategic points threatening Herat indicates an early Russian advance in the dircotion'of Herat and gives color to tho reported subsidizing of tho Ghilazais by tho Russians. It has leaked out that the Indian Government has warned the Homo Cabinet that tho Ameer will shortly require effectivo support and has asked fur sanction to push forward troop3 to Caiiadahar for that pur pose The application js under consideration, and in the meantime tho Indian 'authorities are taking matters in tholr own hands as usual nnd making tho necessary disposl- tion of troops and stores in anticipa tion of orders for an advance. Liberal members of tho House of Commons nsscrt that ovidence will shortly be brought to tho notice of Parliament proving that Salisbury's policy lias trtiito recently brought tho country within a measurable dis tance of war with liussia and that the relations between the two conn tiics are dangerously strained. SOME SMALL STATES. It would probably puzzle most pcoplo to give a complete list of the sovereign states of Europe. Wo don't mean to suggest that they would bo likely to omit Montenegro, or Scrvia, or Belgium, or Greece, or ucn Monaco, with its 7,200 sub jects. But theio is Andorra. Ono is prono to overlook its GOO square miles, and 10,000 mountaineers. And there is San Marino, tho sole Btirvivor of the old and onco numer ous republics of Italy. It contains only about 00 square miles and 8,000 inhabitants; yet it is a military power, and has an army of 950 men, while its revenue amounts to nearly 823,000 a year. And there is the principality of Lichtcnstcin, between the Tyrol and Switzerland. There is only a very little of this charming country. Tho land measures but twelve or thirteen miles in length, and the proud nation that inhabits it consists of only 10,000 souls; but, such as it is, tins little princi pality exists under the rule of his most transparent Highness John II. ; and it is protected by intimate alliance, with Austria. Still more restricted in extent is the republic of Moresnet, between Vervicrs, in Belgium, and Atx-la-Chapcllc. Its dominion reaches over only four square miles, it possesses about 0,000 inhabitants, and its annual revenue amounts to less than $2,500. Tho national arm' consists of one soldier, who also acls as policeman. -l'rank Leslie s Monthly. O. S. S. CO.'S TIME TABLE. Arrivo at Honolulu from San Francisco.
