The Flyi*g Dutchman. jj «, . BY A. K. MOMUCKF.It. 4 Yu, yes, I believe in the flying l»utch man, mates, Mid ?'om Ivieffumn, us ho took • lip froti hii ean in tli« folksel of the Caspertaw, and set it dawn again. I moit oortainly do, far /'ve i««n the like, io my cruisin* among the wa'.ers •f tbe world. I'd beard a greet deal abeut tbe Fly ing Dutchman itid ether specter crafts, but i was sceptical. However, after uiy own experience, I tin willing to be liove m phantom ships, wttobes, sea serpents, aud in fact eycrytbing. 1 bad just gone home after a a fir* year's oruiaa, and I bad saved up my money «c to take a mco little BUJQ to tb« old woman, and L was webome. Having been gone for so long, and being no band with a pea to write boiue 1 was afraid Mary uiigbt have got apieed again, balieying I bad set aail for the port of Paradise. lSut 00, she wai true to the sailor lad though the country parson was cruising rouud her pretty sharp, and tryiug to beat windward of her affections. But than, Mary had a ouuifortable horns which was all paid for, and tbe parsou only got half a hundred a year. However, 1 broke up that matrimo nial voyage, and .silenced his ynrns of affection for .Vary, w>en 1 run iu and dropped anchor at tha old boiue. ll was iu 1845, that I got connected with tbe ship Falcon cruisiug for right whales in tha South pacific. Xf e were away down in latitudo sixty three, having followed tho whales south waid with extremely goou luck. al though from oeustant danger from bod ies of icc, which wera drilling from the Autarkic circl , when wo fell in with tho Lunguedoc fioui our own pott .IJ bor captain. Boswoitb, brioi'.nj Willi him hi* mate aud two boat crew, cau;« on board of as to see Captain Collie - ., our coiuuiuudcr. Of course, a good chat wss had among officers and bauds. Having left bonis a year than our selves, tbe Langucdoo's men had the advant go of us in the way of news; a nd they told how suoh a ship was lying u doo'ts when they cams away ; how such another wat loading at tho bead of the wlasrf; how the Morrison Pluiuiuer had just got in, and tho L. B. Stafford been he rd from, and who bad got mar. tied iu the year'* interval, and who had died, etc., etc. But presently they informed ua of a singular oircuins'.ance, wlitcb only a few days before had occurred in councction with themselves. Right in the uiidst of a school of whales, they bad encounter ed the Flying Dutchman which had juat cleared their stern by nut mure than teti feet, aud ou her desk they saw that the crew were drosstd in white, wliioll were us silent and motionless as corp. Now, males, you know it is embar rassing to douy, *o u person's face, tbo existence of a lhiut( which lie assures u» that be lui seen, bowevir I'm u»t over ■lies iu this particular. Ou« of our crew said he would try to believe euougb of ibeir story to oblig.i thcui ; but this, with an old tar l.ke Perry !>avis was-»>poor Davis ! lie and gone now —is an unusual condeeen. 1 »ion witfc regard to a yam iavolviug doubt, l'bus it may wjll be imagined lint au attempt was uiads to d sguiso the iacreduilty with which tho account of tue l.anguedoj's ttew wus received in our fo ksal. My u-atrs evidently thought that there m ght be some foundation of fact for the sury but tnev woro not prepar ed to accept all its euilwilishujeiits, It wa« desirable to know what the ' Lauguedoo's t'uplaiu would have to ray nn the subject. Via, »ai l our visitors, ask tho old man. Vou sau't take tbo (urns out sf what bo s*y. Wo toon found ti nt Capta n liul - worth enrroboastod ttio story of his m«u mid related the extraordinary yarn to i aptain ("oilier wUilo hisuiaic wus no less (motive in the same direction. My mates therefore concluded that the Lsngue loe't crew hud seen some thing very romarksblu although to what decree fear and wctider intght Inn riot lied it with terpor beyoud t!io reslt ty tli.*.t wa» still uncertain. At all evi n(« wc were placed sharply on the lookout fr at abject *n aston inj! hoping yet half dreading t» «• it. >',r HO mo days tho flying dutrliuiin formed the ehiof them# ol oo vers*.'.on ou board tbo Falcon and til tlut taj of the 3row had evor board or read uou- oerniag tna mysterious eraft was braogh up afresh sad related with naw inter est. One sight as we ware running slawly we sighted a 'nrge scliopi er .hich was coming right down upon as and theeap taiß jiuiiued hi* helm to port and bailed her hard. But bo paid no attention to ni and cam« st aight on jnst clearing our stern by not more than sis feet. It was a nar row shave and the erew most of whom were on deck were terribly frightened. Hut I noticed something that I did not Jike, First the sohooner was white all over from null to truck and on lior decks the or«w I saw wcie dressed in white an.l they were as silont and motionless as copses. Tho schooner also carried with ber a chilly air tbat mads me shiver and I felt uncommonly uncomforabla. In fact it was the Flying Dutchm.m aud it bad appeared to us iu tha sau>c a manner as it had ta tbe Langeadoe's eraw. We got safely into port, but we sent a dead body ashoro, for one of tbe crow bad died tho day after we had seen tbe phautoca schooner, and tbis oat me tbin!tinr mora about tha craft. Tinea mouths later we again sighted the white gcheouer. She was abeam, and cuuiing on a course tbat would bring her acrust our bows, if the captain bald Now, mates, the Falcon war a fast sailor, aud tho captain was determined to make that white craft go asurn. Ho we Mine!: out the reefs, srowded en all she c ut ! carry, aud sent her ahead at a tpUpptug pice. But the the white craft held b»r own without putting out another stitch of canvas. At lasi ws were *) near that '.be oap tsiu Jjlermiued to bail ber and oried : Sohoone: ahoy ! No answer. ."•ohooner ahoy, ahoy ! V' 11 no answer, and he shouted, con found you, what oraft is that ? No antwer still, and then right across our bows went the. stranger. Then 1 felt tho same chill as before, and in the darkness 1 saw that same si lent, motionless cgw. The nt zt moment up came one of the crew fruui below, i.*rd requested tho captain to shorten sail, as the cook, who was ill, was too much shaken up. Ws took in canvas, but it did no good for the urn died the following day, and tlun ! begin to think that the craft was v phantom and not sailed by mortal men. l>'or several, months we continued cruising for whales, without seeing the craft, aud my spirit rose, until one moon light night as we wore going into port, wc again saw that same ideutieal pban. turn sulioouer. She came out from inshore soma, wheu ran after as, overhauled us, and glided by so close that 1 could without diQiculty have thrown a line on board, and not answer oould we get to our hail. *Yb«n I got home, I found tint my old lady had slipped her life's oable, having died s'uddeuly. Though that was fifteen years ago, 1 have never s:uce seen the Flying Dutchman. SOME HKASONa FOR KXEROI3E. I.
