Sleepy Hollow ie A» name h goes by, from its tranqnU, snnny, dreamy dbnate, and the total indifference of its in- baUtants to all that is going on in the ont- Mm world. Ifelson is divided into two distinct parts, tbe Town and^the Port. The Town canaiats of two or three old-fashioned; slombrons atraets of shops, merging into rows of pretty holies in blooming gardens and orchards, wfth a background of wooied hills and aowy peaks. The Port is a mile and a half from the Town, and U, if passible, even aore pictnresqne and slambrons. The col- sn are so brignt, everything is so spick and span, and snob perfect stillnMS reigns, that is always remirds one of a newly painted drop scene at a theatfe.

For three parts of the year Cr^z ils Harbor is in abso- lute solitude, nnlepu for some small craft running there for abet tjr, or, at rare int*r viim, BO â€" y aa ht tog or j^onio party from Nelson. je day toward the end of Jane, wbioh ii midwiater in that latitude, the only living creature at this lonely spot was a balf-OMte named Periâ€" Maori for Perry â€" a whaler who had settled there away back in the savage days and taken a native wife. Peri was a daherman, when not too laxy to work, and on this occasion he had gone alone in hie canoe from a Msori settlement near Nelson, where he lived, in the hope of makinc; a haul of mallet, which somdtimES abound at the Crczsla. The weather, howaver, was very stormy, and Pari, ijlad of an excuse for doing nothing, had drawn up his canoe on the smooth, shelly beach and made him- self comfortable in one of the deserted hutF, she quay, cverlooklng the gljctering bay, are i to wait for the wind to go down aksnaiber of charming hooses, each enclosed. "" ' " " ' " in a little paradise of jwers and fruit, and tH embowered in passion vines and honey- •Bckles and climbing rcses, ivhich blossom all the year ronad. 'Ibe residents of the Town are mostly re- tired military men and sIviliMia in easy cir- eozDatsknces, while the Pori: is the favorite 3itoode' of sea captains and the nautical f ra- tsTBicy generally., To have a snug home of im own at; the Port of Nelson is the life'd â- arsam ef every master mariner in thsse tompest-tosaed waters. In one of the prettiest houies at the Port iet9 dwelt, some years ago, a family namsd Bayes, eonsiiting of father, mother, and i boat was being sailei in a very peculiar way. Having eaten a hearty meal of pipis, a kind of clam for whioh the Maoris have ^a voracions appetite, the half-caste lit his pip3 and leaned against the doorway ot the hut, watching thd surf breatcing on the rocky shore of the islets and sending up columns of feathery spray. To his aatoniahment he observed a small vessel entering the harbor under a heavy spread of canvas. She looked a mere toy boat, and Pari, wondering what madman had come out in such a craft in such wea- ther, went down to the landing place and iqaatted on the sand to see her oomo in. The first thing he soticed was that the ^o children. Nobody knew exactly where Otpt. Hayes came from, bat his wife was tW daughter of a well-to-do farmer in the fcovfoae, and be made himself so pleasant » ail his neighbors that they did not trouble themselves much about his antecedents. He •9ta a bl^, jolly lookirg fellow, with rather a ipoliah face, and he was known everywhere fer his good nature. He was always ready io cilige a friend, or even a stranger, and bn iaiplic!ty in money matters was a stand- ing joke at tbe Port. Just aa nobody knew where he came from, »a nsbedy knew exactly how he got his liv- img though, ij a little place like tha% it is ^ewuJ body's bnrness to find out everybody s3(CB business. He always faai plenty of jaasHij and he never had any debts, two tbtsga which allay impsrMoent cariosity 33201 e than anythicg dae. Yet ho was not IcBovn to be in any employoaant or to have aa interest ia any vessel trading to that Tart. He owned a litcle yacht, the Lily; Ibat she was a m^re pleasure beat, and his jacnrstons in her seldom extended beyond i^nnmeroas inlera and email harbors within a couple of days' i aU of Nelson, where splen- £d fishing is to be got. His neigbbars Tsmarked, however, that the Captain often wstt away on long jsumoys, sometimes favtisj^ for months, and shat when ha return- ed he was more sunburnt than is usual in J^ temperate olimate of Ne* Z t^land. Id was surmised from this that he was in the labit of visiting Australia, a belief which voB itrengthened by his commonly paying lor STerytliing in gold, especially these light wlored Sydney sovereigns, which were the ^ssiTersal mediam of trade among the islands e^ the Pacifij, but were not often seen in Jfew Z mlaind. His hands were hard and EnQgh,showing that he worked at something tmd tHe prevailing theory was t^at he had jkahart in a mine, and took bis turn with hh partners iueworking it, not an nncom- ason practice in those 'days. Mrs. Hayes Bsvr r talked about her husband's affairs Jciiin casual remarks which she made, it was jaitdered that they drew their income from ateoad, til cugh never a shilling was known ia come to them through the Post OfBce or Uta banks. Capt. Hayes was a very pious man, at- jHsdhsg church resnlarly, and sometimes 3«n£ng.tbe service when the clergyman was «way up in the country. j^He had a magni- insnfctwBQg voice, and was of ^eat assistance \siii9 cboir. ^ahortt the Hayaa family were looked 3]p:a as ons of the most respectable in the jit^ss, and the Captain, especially, had a i!^g»b repntation for benevolence and inte- frity. (Ceere were two people, nevertheless, who, {8unrgh they never sa^ anything openly, ivsTs known to dissent from the general ssfdmate of Hayes's character. je of these -VBs tbe resident magistrate, John Poynter, aa aid English lawyer, who, for reasons best istnra to himself, had settled down with a yevtVr paid Government appointment in lAw remote comer of the world, and was jather a mystery to his neighbors. The sirwas Dr. Tweed, a young practitioner v{» had come to Nalaon ab^ut the time of Cip:. Hayes's marriage, and had always aleended him and hia family. The Doctor sme on friendly terms with Hayes, and ws sndi under hia icflaence, but Mr. Poynter aawrbad anything to do with him l)eyond xiriBg him a nod when they met in public. 3s was known that when retnrung from his iniieys, Haj^es had several fimes been con- aahiA colilaroftipviyi serioBi Ulneu^ a teajctime, nobody being allowed to \lsit mbb but tbe D actor. On one of these occai- me Mn. Hayes and tbe children were sent jMnj on the night of Ida arrival, and wpre aofe even allowed to aee him for some weeks. 3 was after this that a change was noticed Id tite Dootot'a manner wheathe Capti^ or Mt Tirtnee were pndsed. ,31m Daotor, however, made a rule of saver govaipiag aboat hia patfents, whOo â- â-  -isr Mr. Poynter, he wm anofc a Strang* aan IbnaUthAt aobody MMoiiiit anoh of fab •sidaeea to Havaa.

Whoever the yachtsman was, he was carrying a great deal too much sail to beat into such a narrow entranoe with safety, and Pari felt aure that he would come to grief if a equall struck him when he left the ahelter of the ialand at the mouth nf the harbor. Suddenly the boat went about to tack past the island, and Peri then aaw that it contained a woman and two cbildren, besidca the man who was steering. Kaowing they wore in great dan- ger, he ran to his canoe and hauled it down to the water's edge, to be ready to render assistance. The only chanco they bad was to let go the sheet and lower tbe jib before they came out into the open channel, where the tide waa running like a sluice and the wind was lashing the troubled waters into foam. Bat no, they came right on with all sails fulL The next moment the boat shot out from the lee of the island, lay over till her mainsail dipped in tbe water, righted again, cleared the channel and was almost in safety, when, jaet as a tquall came up, the man deliberately steered her right across the wind, and over she went, not a hundred yards from the laud. Peii jumped into hia canoe and paddled with all his might and main, but the wind and tide were dead against him and the driving spray blinded bim. He was com- pelled to return, and he had hardly reached the traach when he saw a sight which riveted him to the spot. The yacht had snnk so near the land that her mast and sail were sticking up above the water. It would have teen quite easy for the jrhole party to get ashore. Yet the man and the woman seemed to be strngffliag with one another in the water, while the two children were olinging tu the rigging. The half-osste ran round the rocks till he got abreast of the boat, sprang into the water, waded out until he was lifted off his feet, and then, swimming on his side, covered the re- maiijng distance with half a dossn strokes. The woman was nowhere to be seen, and the man had already taken cne of theohild- ren and started for the shore, swimming very strongly. Peri seized tha other child, a boy nf five or six, and hMing him by tbe collar of bis jacliet with his teeth, like a Newfoundland dog, landed him without any difficulty. He found the man on tbe leaofa weeping and praying aloud^ and holding the child in his arms. With ao cxslamatton of anger he pulled: him by the arm and called him to come with him and try to save tbe woman but as tbe man seemed too stupefied or too frightened to understand him, he returned alone. Diving beside the sunken boat, he saw a dark object swaying about in the cnrren«, and soon succeeded in bringing it to the sur- face. It waa the woman, pale and rigid, and apparently quite lifeless. The brave half-caste, however, knowing that there is often a hope ef restoring life after it seems to have tied, lost no time in getting her ashore, carrying her to the fire he had made in the hut, and applying such means as he koiw of for reviving animation. Peri then propos^ that be should go in his canoe to the nearest settlement, whioh, by keeping close in shore and taking advan- tage of the currents, he might have reached in a couple of hours, to send word of the accident into town and obtain assistance, ' To hia astoni^b-nent the man declined his offer and angrily refused to allow aim to go when he.insU^ed. Peri, however, overcome by^that snperstitioas feeling to which all Maorfs are liable, and having a strong sua- picioB of tbe man, made aa opportunity to slip ont of the hut, and was soon far away from ths Crczjis in bis little canoe.

The Doctor, con sideriag himaelf no Iwiger required Iww- fessional etiquette to keep alienee, made thia astonndag statement Three times he had been sent for to attend Capo. Hayes on his return from abroad, and each time he found him suffering from terrible wounds, caused either by aa-ord cut or a pistol shot. Once he had extraotod a ballet from his neck, and it was then that the wife and children bad been sent away until the wound was healed. On the lateal of these occasions Mrs. Hayes, who bad long been very uneasy in her mind about her husband, refused to leave the house, and In- sisted on seeing him. Thia resulted in a bitter quarrel between the two, with threats of exposure on her part, and of vengeance on his The Daotor had acbed as peacemaker for the time bein?, but he feared that a crisis of some sort was approashing. He knew t^^at Mrs. Hayes had discovered her bus- band's secret, which the D)Otor himself only suspected. What waa the secret Mr. Poynter, the resident inagistrate, new disclosed it. He had received, shortly after C ^pt. Hayes cams to Nelson, a private' communication from a persoa in the confidence ot the British Admiralty informing him that a mysterioue criaainal, a pirate ind slayer of the most desperate description, whose naur- ders and robbetiei, committed under various names and disguises, were the terror of the western Pacific.was^beliaved.to have a haunt somewhere in that part of New Z ialand, and asking him to keep a watch abd report anything chat came to his knowledge. The magistrate had all alon^ believed that Hayes was the man but bis conduct had always been so exemplary, and his domestic surroundings were ao creditable and happy rlat Mr. Pjynter had never felt jastifisd in even reporting upon him. The Hayes family were heard of no more in Nelson, and the common supposition was that the Lily had gone down as sea with all on board. llMy arrtvad dnr* at dayHght oa tii* follow tecdaqr.

(TO BE ONTINUED. agree folks Hma'aolHua^ Th* hopi* whan th* faaDy had lh«d Maori Oratory. The native orators of New Zaaland with Dfmostheufs that "action 'is the first, the second, and tbe third characteristic of elcquence. A short time after BishopSelwyn settled in New Zsaland it becamn necessary V remove the Episcopal residence and ouilege from Waimate to Auckland. The native Chriatians of the former place opposed tbe removal, and ens market-day 'shere was a great deal of apeechmaklng on the sub j act in front of the bishop's hoase. A powerful Maori orator opsned the debate, his audience being seated on either side of the path leading to the residence. Dressed in a bandaome native mat, and holding a apear in his hand, the orator Iiegan by trotting slowly up and down the path. He began each sentence with a ran through a given space, and ended It just as he finished bis mn back. Growing warmer and warmer, be rushed backward and forward, leaped from tha ground, slapped his thigh, shouted,, and waved his spear. A stranger, ignorano of the language, would have thought that the orator was breathing out death and destruction but he waa simply urging the bishop to stay at Waimate. Two missionaries who had been long in the land replied to the Maori orator. One, a stout, old-faahioied English clergyman, with a broad-brimmed hat and spectacles, adopted the Maori action so far as to march ap and down tha path with a spear in his hand, Hia "action" elicited shonta of ap- plause. His brother, taking a spsar,. marked oat a large apace in tbe gravel walk, divided it into three parts, and then asked whethar it was not fur that the bishop ahonld live in the middle of the diooeae, ioatead of at one end.

HOW THE TEBM INFLUENZA ABOSX, Irfluerza is a term which originated with the Italians, their belief being thai tne disease was dae to the inflaenoe cf the soars from a signification of the word indi- or eating something tranient or ephemeral the name was considered fashionable among them. Hippocrates iasaic to have referred to it, but gives no exact description of ^the diseaae in bis writings. Diodorns^ Siculus recorded an 'outbreak in the Athenian army in Sicily during tha year 415 B. C, whioh is supposed from the description to be infia- ecza. Daring the ninth centiuy several epidemics of batarrahal fever wererecirded. In 827 a cough spread very rapidly, af footing a great many, which was supposed to have been the afisction in question. In Italy, in the year 876, there occurred an epidemic similar in character wbioh spread over all Eirope with great rapidity. Dating this epidemic Itia claimed that dogs and birds suffered with an affection having symptoms not unlike those occurring in man. A fever of which the chief symptom waa cough, ocsurred as a general epidemic throuKhout Germany and Francs In the year 976. Until the ytAr 1173 no farther epidemic is noted then a widespread affec- tion, of which the symptoms were princp- ally catarrhal, raged tbrongtiout the entire European continent. Minor epidemios are recorded aa having occurred Irom 1239 to 1299^ also during the fourteenth century. In tbe writiogs of Aitken it is found that bo very fatal was tbe prevale'nse of the dbeasn laFrance that from the year 1311 to 14C3 ihe mortality waa so great it necessitated the closing of the courts of law in Paris in eonsf quence of tho deaths which occurred. LA OBIPFB IN IRELAND. In tbe " Annals of the Four Masters" iu- fiaei z k is mentioned as having prevail* 1 In Ireland during the fourteenth century. A similar disease is referred to In the early Gaelic manusciipts under tbe name of orea- tar, creat, the chest. Tbe first epidemic that occurred in Qretk'i Britain of which we have any very accurate description ia the one of the year 1510. The disease travelled from Malta and infested first Sicily, then Italy, Spain and Portugal, when it crosaed the Alps into Hungary and Garmany,^reaeh- ing a) far as the Baltic Sea and extending thence weatward into France and tbe British Isles. Its tract extendol over entiro Barope from the southeast to the northwest, and. it is claimed that not a single family escaped its ravages. Its aymptoma war* aimllar to those witnessed to-day, via, great pain in the head, diffisult breathing, stupor, loss of strength and appetite, nervoosneaa and retehlngs from a violent tearing oonrh. Daiiag this epidemic non? died except cbildren. In 1557 there ooourred an epi- demic which aiarted weatward from Asia and SI read over entire Europe it then crossed the Atlantic Ocean and. appeared in America, ^the affection occurring in England after an nntuoally raioy season. The attack was otiaraoteriaed by catarrhal affectioas of the pulmonary and abdominal mucous membranes, sneezing and cough- ing, difficulty of breathing, with fever, and paias^wbich were usually referred to the sides. The entire population of Nia- mes fell ill of it on the aame day. A FATAL EPIDEMIC. Th* epidemic waa an extremely fatal on*. In the small town of Maatna Carpentaria, which ia near Madrid, the disease broke oat In the middle of August^ and 2.030 person*, whowor* bled and porgadâ€"th* prevailing treatment at that tbneâ€" all died. In 1668 In Dalft. the disease carried off 5 000 of the poor. A very great epidemic of Infiaenaa oc- carred in 1580. From OonatonHnople and Yaaloa It overran Hucgary and Germany, and reached the fartbeat regions of Norway, Sweden, and Russia. It extended Into England, and prevailed durbg August an! September there; about the same time In Italy, and the entire summer in l^paln. Ite average duration every whero waa about six weeks. Dr. Short, a writer of that period, atatea that " few died except those that were let blood of or had unsound viscera." Two thou»and died of it in Rome, accordine to Dr. Short, but we are informed by Zus zh that not less than nine thotiaand parJahed, and he also states that Madrid was almost entirely depopulated.
