occurred on board the steamship Gea. Scott,
lately wrecked OH the Pacific coas', Illus
trutes, in very fcreible manner, ihe pc
cu!iar love Of gain which character.zes
the Yankee. under all circumstances.
When the vessel struck, all was contu-
sion and disinay ON board. One poor fell
low was cndcayoring to initiate i'e-pre-
server, but all his efforts proved truilless.
Terrified at the prospect OF going down,
he shouted out, For Gods sake! Will no
one help me blow this up" A Yankee,
who was intcntly watching the proceed
iuos, cooilv answered.: Il will, if You give
me ten dollars" The victim demonstrated
with him for thinking of filthy lucre, at
such time; but the Yankee. in bust
ncss-likc twang, rcsponded:-"Wall, now
il YOU rit to shore, it'il be worth the
whole amount to you; and if you g to
the bottom, the ten spot wont doyou a mite
. good" His argument was, OF course,
convincing; and he pocketed the spondu-
lies.
