Winkles have awoke from their sleep

no longer take their midnight aerial
journeys on broomsticks in "Merrie
England," nor Ghouls haunt kirk-yards
to "glower" at affrighted rustics in
"Bonnie Scotland." The "Good Peo
ple" too,have forsaken the "froths"and
secluded glens of the Emerald Isle,
and in their place, the "schoolmaster
is abroad." The armed hosts seen
fighting in the air by the ancients,with
the phantom-ships sailing on the
clouds, so much dreaded by the super
stitious mariner, are now fully account
cd for by simple science.
But though Superstition has received
its death-blow, and lingers feebly in
the haunts ot Ignorance, still there
are some things that have occurred
even in modem times, which cannot
be accounted for on natural grounds,
and which possibly may never be re
vealed on this side ofthe grave, or till
the matured sciences of after ages will
have made those things as plain to our
descendants as the errors of our fore
fathers in the superstitions are palpa
ble to us now.
The following narrative will bo found
a casein point: and, us it was attested
to by many witnesses, wo will relate
the incident as told us by an aged
relative many years ago, and leave the
reader to form his own conclusions as
to the cause.
At a time when Liberty is raising
her head in centuries oppressed Itftly,
anything connected with ^hat "land of
song and sunny skies" Will be read
with interest by the liberty loving peo
ple of this vast continent and hence a
tew introductory remarks respecting
the ancient villiage of Sorrento, near
the scene of our adventure, may not
here be out of place:
On the southern shore ofthe Bay of
Naples, lies the celebrated village of
Sorrento, renowned in classic lore.—
Within its limits once stood the dwel
lings of emperors. Here tho great
Ctesar sought [retirement from the
cares of state, and the bloody Nero
luxuriated in the warm springs which
are yet called Nero's Baths. It was
here Caligula attempted to build his
ambitious bridge, and the vile Nero
had his own mother's life attempted.
It is asserted that St. Paul landed here,
when hp journeyed a prisoner to Rome.
The small island fronting it is called
Nis'ula, where Marcus Brutus retired
after the deed at the loot of Pompey's
statue, and from whence he and Cas
sins embarked, to meet the shade of
the murdered Caesar at Philippi.—
Virgil, the father of Italian classics, is
said to repose here and not far remov
ed from Sorrento, lies tho buried city
ot Pompeii, which, in one night, by an
eruption of Mount Vesuvius, was en
tombed for centuries, and whose sight
was, seventeen hundred years after,
revealed, by accident, to a peasant,
who was tilling the ground.
Some fifty years sincn, an English
merchant vessel, after discharging her
cargo in Naples, lay becalmed in the
bay. The breezes which had wafted
her to her destination had ceased to
blow, and not even a gentle zephyr
milled the placid Maters, which lay
like a sheet of glass underneath, save
when some agile member of the finny
tribe caused a few eddies to move
around, in his atempt to catch the flies
that sported a few inches above the
surface. The .sun blazed down with a
fierceness little removed from the
tropics, which caused the sea to spar
kle, like precious gems, from the re
flection of his rays. Although some
miles distant from the burning moun
tain, scoria and ashes fell in showers
on the deck, and the air was hot and
suffocating in tho extreme. And this
will not be wondered at, when we are
assured that Vesuvius lias thrown its
ashes as far as Constantinople, Syria,
and Egypt, and that it hurled stones
eight pounds weight, to Pompeii, a
distance of six miles

The crew amuse

the barometer when the look-out-man
reported to the captain, that he had
just described two objects, like very
large birds,on the verge of the horizon,
which seem to be wending their way
in the direction oJ the becalmed ship.
The captain, procuring his telescope,
brought it to bear on the yet far-di
tant objects, and, after a long and
steady survey, said in answer to a
question form the mate,
"Well, this is most extraordinary,
certainly, I can scarcely believe tlie
evidence of my own sences, and I
will come to no conclusion on the
matter, till I have got a nearer view
of these strange objects."
In a few minutes, however, the figures
became visablc enough to the whole
ship's company, who congregated,
with amazement, at the stern of the
vessel, and gazed with dilated eyes,
at tho rapidly approaching objects.—
Many were the surmises of the old tars
at the phenomena, but all agreed that
it was something which had no paral
lcll in their sea-faring experience.
Nor longer time had they for specula
tion, as the figures made rapidly for
vessel, and passed closely over the top
mast, revealing the forms of two men,
in strange habiliments, one evidently
in chase of the other. They piercing
the air quick as the eagle, yet did not
appear to have any wings, but dashed
on, as if the sky was their native
element.
The captain who was a native of
Liverpoole, and who, as we said, was
standing with his telescope, brought
to bear on the mysterous visitors,
exclaimed, as the figures passed over
tho ship:
"Great Heaven! one of those flying
things looks like old Mr. Boot}', of
Liverpool, the rich merchant, and the
other is—the devil!"
Awe-stricken, the captain and crew
Continued to gaze at the retreating
figures, and watched till they ultimate
ly disappeared at the mouth of Mount
Vesuvius, at the exact place where
Pliny, ihe naturalist, is siacl to have
perished, in A. D. 79. Both figures
plunged into the yawning abyvs of
liquid fire, and were lost to view for
ever!
Horrified at the spectacle, it was
sometime before the captain could
withdraw his eyes from the place
where they disappeared, as if expect
ing to see then again winging their
way with bird-like rapidity. But at
length he turned round, and entered
his cabin, and after he had made a
careful and truthful statement, in his
log-book, of the extraordinary affair,
time, date, etc., he summoned his crew,
and asked them all to witness to its
truth, which they did very willingly
and when the captain read* the "Form
of Prayer to be used at sea," provided
by the Episcopal Church, many a
strong heart quailed, and was softened
at the thought, that "those that go
down to the sea in ships, and occupy
their business in great waters, these
men see the works of the Lord, and
his wonders in the deep." The re
membrance of that scene never faded
from any of their minds, and various
were the effects produced by the re
currence of it on the rough seamen.

The Columbiad or Paixhan (pro
nounced payzan) is a largo gun, de
signed principally for firing shells—it
being far more accurate than the
ordinary short mortar.
A mortar is a very short cannon
with a large bore, some of them thir
teen inches in diameter, for firing
shells. Those in use in our artny are
set at an angle of 45 degrees, and the
range of the shell is varied by alter
ing the charge of powder. The shell
is caused to explode at just about the
time that it strikes, by means of a fuse,
the length to which is adjusted to the
time of flight to be occupied by the
ball, which, of course, corresponds
with the range. The accuracy with
which the time of a burning of a fuse
can be adjusted by varying its length
is surprising good artillerists general
ly succeed in having their shells ex
plode almost at the exact instant of
striking. In loading a mortar, the shell
is carefully placed with the fuse direct
ly forward, and when the piece is dis
charged, the shell is so completely
enveloped with flame, that ih fuse is
nearly always fired. The fuse is made
by filling a wooden cylinder with fuse
powder, the cylinder being of sufficient
length for the longest range, to be cut
down shorter for shorter ranges as
required.
