It is the mistress mad sc'-ool of sobriety, temperance, religion and, in short, of all 1 Jt 'is well that farmers and plunteTS have taken such matters, seriously into their own hands. As was stated by a lending oDIccr at the late meeting of State Grange, government has done but little for farmers in thi? country, though it has made some feeble efforts in that direction, for which it should have the credit due good intentions not very energetically carried out. Besides the labors of the Patent Ofllco and Agri. cultural Bureau, referred to by the NEWS the other day, Congress has appropriated large quantities of the public lands, for tho endowment of agri. cultural colleges.

In Hooth, so she looks, a very giant of strength, built of ribs and plates of iron. Her cabin in stataiy and pretty; her fitme-rooms snug and cosy. To judge from appearances I could not be better oil in the great hotels of Broadway or those more luxurious of Fifth Avenue. I am decidedly Treli pleased with her and with her ofilcers. as far ui I have SCCL of them.

I saw Mr. Jfal- lory, the head of the line, several times. There is a gentleman in Houston who in almost his fac-eimile in appearance, but I can not now of his name, lit: reminds me not a little of Mr. T. W.

I have noticed that there is a strange resemblance in ncariy all these men who build gigantic fortunes. It is a true genius, the Kamo as oratory and poetry.

At U. 15 I went up through the smoking-room to the upper deck, and to my surprise found it covered with snow. A regular storm is prevailing. TwoCubansstepped out on the just behind me. They broke put.

immediately withdrew into the smoking-room. This is a common expression among the Cubans, but I never heard it among the Mcxians, to my recollection. It is an expression of surprise and wonder, apparently not little with terror, and seems to amount to very much the sumo i ns our American "hell and blaxes I I walked the deck enjoying the snow storm, feeling no inconvc- nienco whatever. How often bave I dashed through tlie street? of New York in the small liours in severer wuather than this! I met Captain Nick- ergon by tbe pilot-house and said to him: "Captain, we will not leave New to-nighi? Oh, yes," said he, "we will gel off about 11 o'clock. A snow storm is a bad thing, but we are all right as long as we can see the While we were talking, a great ship was broughtm by a tugboat and moored close alongside of us.

From her and bowsprit icicles as long and big as man's leg. She ncemed literally incased in a coat of glittering mail. I judge that hot punches and much fat must be necessary in the land whence that vessel comes. She gavo me the shivers to look her, and I retired into the cabin below. THE COMPANY.

And they do all of this so noiselessly! Nothing but a (thortorder fromihtmate, andnquick "Aye, aye, sir!" from the seumea. At last I feel lonesome, unri retirc-to my bunk.

This motion is Paid to be extremely soothing to an infant in cmllc, but 1 to me it quite the reverse.

Yet at waked jnat at dawn. A brilliant red star peeped through my window, and seemed to say the day will be a sparkling one.

DEPAItTOKE--TILE KADIKO SCENE. 10.40 p. lines were cast, the screw began to revolve, and instantly great glided smoothly away from the pier.

She rode out as gracefully as a swan, and so easily that many of the passengers in the did no: know 'that she was in motion. Just at that moment the clouds broke, and. the full moon shone from a great blue field in the. heavens, as wishing to say to us, Lon "cyfinfic. I stood upon the upper deck to watch grand old New York, which I love'so well, fading from the view.

As we rode down. East River, it was a scene of enchantment. On the one hand was Brooklyn, sitting majestically upon her "Heights," stretching far away to the east. was a. blaze of glory witk its myriads of gas-lights, rising in rows above one another like the seats in an amphitheater.

New York looked low and Equat in comparison, and was half concealed behind the great forests of masts at her docks; but Battery Park, its lights, was extremely pretty. It seemed a vast army marching in line of battle by divisions, bearing torches. This was for a long time the most brilliant object in tbe receding scene. In the midst of the bay TJC scene-is a' splendid one: New York immediately behind the steamer, Brooklyn to the right, Jersey City to the left, and Staten Island, with its numerous cities acd snow-clad hills to tbe. front--all under a flood of gas-light.

Tbe- entrance to New York by nea can not be surpassed, if equalled in the world, especially at night wheu all the lights are glowing. One might easily suppose with violence against the berth. Instantly I felt deadly flick, and slunk back into the berth as quickly aa possible, wrapping myself up head and ears. I lay quietly til! the gong sounded for breaktast, when I again made an effort to rise, but could not stand it. The vessel now had two distinct motions- one rolling from side to side, the other a pitching or leaping, succeeded by a sinking motion.

Of these motionu the sinking one was the worse. I know not how to describe the sensation, except as dog-eick. I felt instantly as if I should puke. Sometimes the sinking motion was so prolonged that it fiecmed that the great steamship was failing into some profound pit. The sudden arrest of this motion, when the billow hud passed beneath her and let her drop to the bottom, was also very disagreeable --producing a tremulous sort of jnr, during which it 5ecmed that the whole me would spill out through my mouth.

It was dog's sensation. I lay upon my bunk i eleven o'clock, luxuriating in this hurror, when a suggestion came to my i that if I would eat two or three slices of broiled breakfast bacon on toast, and drink a eup of coffee with milk but no sugar, all would be well. I therefore arose and dressed myself with very much ado, owiog to the unsteadiness of my foundation and thedisheiirt- ening turmoil in my'atomach and bead. I then opened tbe door of my stateroom and called for the steward, who soon came. I said; Sir Steward, I am a very sick man.

I have not been able to KO to breakfast. I now believe that if I con get a little breakfast bnebn on toast, and a cup of coiTee, I shall be ai! right." Said lie: "Sir Passenger, if you have a craving for these things, a somewhat longing like, they will cure you; that be assured. You shall have them post-hiifltc." He went uway, and! sat on the cushioned seat calmly meditating on my horrible sensations, studying them philosophically as they arose in my body and spirir. I attempted to read a poem of Victor Hugo, called La Mer," but the dancing print before my eyes made me sicker, and I gave it up. Sir Steward delivered the brcakf.ist as ordered, on a tray.

He placed it oa my table and left, saying: Sir Passenger, eat thy fill. If this sufllcelh not, call for more." Everything was beginning to slide on the table, when I seized tbe tray and set it on the floor. The plate of bacon and toast slipped off and slid under tho berth. I was reaching for it when it slid back under the cushioned seat. I then seized it and sat on floor holding tbe tray fast between "my legs.

I drank the coffee at one gulp, as I perceived that the sight of the wallzing dishes was greatly aggravating ray siclcrrcss. I then grasped slice bacon and a piece of toast, and io ttin In Ji foefer of than I am; yet I can hardly nuke note oa roy lipn.

This reminded roe of children iliding down an embankment, and they seemed to enjoy it equally as much.

They shake their tails with glee as they bounded through the air. Then three or four of them would form abreast aud ran a race, and it was nip and tuck between them. Then, they would dash all around tbe ship and cut up all kinds of antics at the bow. They, were the merriest rascals I ever saw. They are sometimes called sea dogs, and the name is very appropriate.

Theyfrolic, roll and tumble, 'and run races like half-grown, puppies. The smallest were about three feet long, and the biggest all of six. They are of a brownish color with a black streak alojj the siJen and white bellies. RIGHT-- TO BED, Only Major Smith, Grinncll, and myself were supper with the captain. All the rest still sick.
