Stirring Times.
"arcfully training it on the decoys , which , it should be remarked , he mistook for living birds , he fired into them with bis own venerable hands . Not a bird stirred , and supposing he had killed the entire flock , he exclaimed : " There , you young fellers , when you want to shoot ducks , send for me . " He was about to order all hands to splice the
mainbrace in honour of the event , when the Dispatch ventured to inform him that ihe ducks he had assaulted were made of wood , and none the worse for the splendid gunnery he had just exhibited . Of course no one dared to smile in his presence , but when he had with great dignity retired to his cabin and commenced an analysis of the lunch basket , there were
suppressed " skremes of lafture" on deck , and a general disposition to examine the top hamper through a glass . Shortly afterward the wind , which had been light , veered to the soutfi-east , and vapidly increased to a gale , accompanied with a heavy mist , and the short chopping waves that distinguish land-locked waters under such circumstances . And now the old hero rose to his normal grandeur .
Orders issued from his speaking trumpet faster than they could be executed . " Brail up the spanker ! " "In with yonr flying jib ! " " Double leef the cat-heads !"" Furl the sheet anchor ! " followed in rapid succession ; but , despite the best efforts of the crew , we were fast being driven on a lee shore and a watery grave , when , fortunately , Lieut . Sol . Smith , our sailing master , with a
wisdom and daring beyond his years , leaped on shore with a line and made it fast to a tree . Even then his Highness , like the boy on the burning deck , refused to desert the ship until he was made to understand by signals that the Widow Cliquot was at the mansion and desired an audience . Thus touched in a tender point , he left the vessel to
its fate and waited upon the charming widow . VVe arc happy in being able to add that the yacht was subsequently brought in safe and sound , and that the party reached New York with as mauy ducks as they could conveniently carry . All ' s well that ends well , and Commander Blanck , Capt . Arey , and the L . H . A . have our thanks for many courtesies . —New York Dispatch .

M . and Treas . 1573 , Swansea , which took place in Swansea , on Frirlay , November 23 rd , after a long and painful illness , has called forth most sincere expressions of regret from the brethren iu Swansea aud the province generally .
The brethren have sustained an irreparable loss in Bro . Goodall's death , as he was not only skilful in the perform , ance of the various ceremonials of the lodge , but was always willing to give a helping hand to those less gifted than himself , and his zeal for Freemasonry , coupled with a courteous and amiable disposition attracted a large circle of friends , a fact amply demonstrated by Ihe presence of
nearly eighty brethren from the various lodges in the province , at his funeral , which took place on Wednesday , thc 28 th November . Amongst the brethren present were Bros . M , Tennant , D . P . G . M ., Eastern Division , South Wales ; . ) . G . Hall , P . P . S . G . W ., W . M . 1323 ; W . Whittington , P . P . S . G . W . ; E . Rogers , P . J . G . W . " , P . M . 1573 ; J . Jones , P .

BRO . SUPERINTENDENT MOTT . We have to record the death of Bro . Supt . Mott , of thc A . Division of Police . Well known to all Londoners by the efficient performance of his duties , at all times , ancl in great emergencies , he was equally distinguished by his courtesy and kindness , and by many good qualities ol head and heart . His place will be one difficult to fill , owing
to his sterling worth and his personal knowledge of his important avocation , and his loss will be sincerely c'eplored by all members of the force , as well by his superiors as hy his equals , and his subordinates . Bro . Mott was a member of the St . Clement Danes Lodge ( No . 13 * 1 ) , and leaves a large family to lament his irreparable loss .
On Wednesday the funeral of Bro . Mott took place at Brompton Cemetery . The obsequies , in accordance wilh the wish of the family of the deceased , were carried out privately , though the high esteem in which he was held drew together many , especially from the police ranks , to witness the last solemn rites . Few police officials came more prominently before the public than thc late Bro . Mott ,
of whom it may be said that to have known him was to hold him in good favour . Placed at the head of the chief division of the police , which is brought into use in both town and country on important occasions , when great numbers of people assemble , his duty was oftentimes an onerous one . Now it would be at Epsom races that he would be met with , directing his staff of men over
the Downs ; next , perhaps , at a Royal review at Windsor-park ; or , again , at a " Tichhorne " demonstration in Hyde-park . On such occasions as these rare tact is required to carry out official duties , with an excited crowd in a measure concerned , and when a harsh , peremptory adherence to a hard-and-fast line , adniiltng not of the " g ive and take " principle , might result in a collision between the police and the public , or at

the late residence of the deceased , at Kennington , shortly after twelve o ' clock .
