In LUCK AT LAsT.-One of the most extra
ordinary instances of good fortune, which we
have lately heard of, came to ouf knowledge
Yesterday. A young man, who was the bar
kcenason board the Inflated steamboat Web
stcf,5 estroyed a few days since by fire, not
only eaped from the almost imminent de-
structim that there surrounded him, but on ar
irving in the city found himself, much to his
surprise, the unexpected owner Of $l2.O 900.
His escape from the Webster was a miracle.
He was utterly ignorant Of the art of SWIM
ming. but, between death by fire and death by
drowning, preferred the latter. He jumped
overheard; tioated fortunately on a pile of
driftwood; and was picked up at last with the
clothes on his back, the Only property he posses
A(snthe world; at least he thought so at the
time.
A more agreeable surprise could scarcely be
imagined than that which greeted him on his
arrival in the city. When the Webster was
last in this port, the bar-keeper purchased a
ticket in the Havana lottery. As we have be-
fore stated, the ticket drew a prize of $l2,e00,
and the money was paid yesterday. This is
i;.deed a remarkable example of the cups and
downs" of life. 1t is not to be concluded how
ever, that every steamboat 5arkeeper who
buys a lottery ticket will win aspile,'' or will
float on a drift pile when in danger of drown
ing. Remember that, Observation-Disclosures.
