day, after an absence of eight days ; to hint cf
anxiety and sufferin', and of deep -toadp:oLoanc
grief to his relatives, who judging, 11-110 '.ll-
- ;hat he had be,ll solo coed f lltviik
by the " ravenous deep," had

drowned is almost miraculous., As we stated
our last, he went into the river a short 011ie be-
fore high water, from , the roeL oppw.tie the
North Battery., Being an expert sk% iooncr. he tor
some time ?Mused himself in that :ulotary l'xel•••
cise ;, but when about 201., yank. lro4l the shore,
he felt the title begitutiog, to ebb. A .itre ut kis
danger, he endeavoured to stem the current ; but
its increasing rapidity, baffled his alms, end he
beheld; ‘yith indescribable feelings, the shore, fast
receding from hint. Despairing of success, and no.
able, any looger to breast the force of the 'tor-
rent, he resigned himself to it, awl was curried
into the river, Mid way betweejl the ithgatittes
anti the Rock Point. , He, now hecome almost
sensible, chilled by the eultiness of the water, anti
exhansted Ly his previous exertions ; and he mete-

voyage, they could not comply. They conveyed.
him to the vessel, put hint in the cabin, phtee,L,
him before the fire, with the characteristic ha..
wattity of sailors, used means to ro..tore Itito ;
and having succeeded, they .upplie.l him with all,
old jacket and truwsers. The Captitio promised.
to put him ashore on the first land they made ;
accordingly he landed him on Sunday at the niotitlL
of the Liffey, and gave him a shilling. Lie joitr-
neyed thence to Dublin, where he arrived the e
night. Conscious that his relatives woold cot,
chide hint drowned, his primary object was
to return to Liverpool with all possible ex-.
- But, to his inexpressible grief,
there was no vessel at that• time ready for
this port; and, either from bashfulness, ur wane
of presence of 'Mud, he neglected to apply tti
persons from whom the bare mention of his
