Francls Oilver, the person re- ferred to, was born in Detroit, Mich., on the 8th of November, 1838, He commenced life a8 a sailor boy on the lakes, and in 1865 went to sea before the mast. In 1860 he salled trom London in the British ship Lauder dale for Hong Kong. At tho latter port he left the Lauderdale and en- gaged In the Chinese coast trade, firat a8 master of asmall vessel, and after- ward as master aud owner of a trad- ing echooner or lorcha, His trade was mainly between Hong Kong and Shanghal,” Ho was very successful, and as the casiom house officera at theso ports were only human, his profita were large. Capt. Oliver mul tiplied his vessels until at one time he owned fourteen, all coasters. The Chinese seas at that tlme swarmed wlth pirates, and it was necossary to ho well armed for protection agsinst these marauders of the high seus.

As we drew near to the junk I observed one of her men go up to the stink pots at the main. mast head, and another to those on the foremast. I gavemy mate one riflo and I took another. T said to the mate, ‘Now, as 8oon a8 you soe that fellow light a fuse, fire, and don't mies him." 'the mate, for some season, manifosted a disposition not to fizht. 1 told him ho could take his chofca, cither do as I told him or go below in irous, Ha promised to obey orders.
