Pumping ont Boston Harhor.

Frequenters Of our wharves are well swarS
that a class Of vessels often lie at Long wharf;
known as fishing smacks. These smacks hail,
in most cases, from Cape Ann; and supply our
markets with fresh fish. Near the centre of
each Of these smacks is fish pit, with sides
perfectly watertight; and rising to the decks,
while the bottom, which is also part of the
bottom of ihe vessel, is perforated with holes.
Into these pits or wells are thrown the fish,
and the sea furnishes through the holes a con-
slant supply Of water for The PRESERVATION Of
the finny tribes, during the transit from along
shore 10 our market.
Il happened one morning; last week that one
Of these smacks was lying near the Custom
House, when two Irishmen came on board, in
quiring for work. They we're told that there
was nothing TO be done on board, bnt they still
hung aroird, and al last discovering the pit;
inquired if they might pump out The vessel, as
they noticed she leaked badly. The two tsfs
aboard, who were both first class jokers, per-
ceivine the mistake Of the Hibernians, replied
yes, and asked their price for pumping the
smack dry. 4 bargain was struck for dollar
and half, pump was procured, and at wOrS
the two men went one pumping while sbe
other baiIed with bucket:
An noGr passed on and still they worked,
occasionally wondering how deep the holS
was, and how much water remained still in
the vessel The two sailors in the mean time
had gone up the wharf, as they said, on busi-
ness. The captain, who was absehI al The time
the bargain was made, came on board, and
finding the men still hard at work, Win the
perspira;ion still pouring off Of their faces, in
ouired what they were about. PGmPfsg out
this ship, was the reply. Pumping out this
ship said the captain. Yesi sir, an n
mighty dape one she is, intirelyi' said one Of
the perspiring Emeralders, as he painted away
at the pump handle. Sure, I'm thinkn' it'll
be night before we get Her dhry.' Nightr
said the captain, beginning to roar with
laughter, as he discovered the joke that had
been perpetrated during his absence, Night =
why you will not get through till yOG have
pumped out Boston harbor!'
He then explained the matter 70 AAe'iaSorsrs,'
who resumed their coats, vOwing vengeance
upon the Sailors who had deaOred' them!

Perilous Adventure in a Cave.

= On Tuesday, the Cd inst, says tie 81.
louis Democrat. while The steamer Flag was
asrOund near S.: Ggniete, Capt Cray ths
pilot, accompanied BY an Eng3ishman, nErder-
took TO explore the great cave sftdated thrs5
miles above that place, taking with them
lamp, ladder, &C. They entered the cave
about eight o'clock on Tuesday evening, and
advanced distance Of nearly two miles when
their lamp was unfortunately broken, and ex-
tlnguished After cropping about for length
Of fine they found an upward passage or
chimhey, SO nearly perpendicular that Cray
found il impossible 10 ascend it. The English
man, however, clung 10 it as his last hope Of
deliverance, promising his companion if he
reached the top in safety, to mark the spot by
tying his handkerchief 10 tree, and then 20
for assistance. Fortunately he made his
egress in safety. II was not yet day, so he
was unable TO take observations, but marking
the place as agreed, he proceeded 10 The village
for assistance, an6 returned early or Wednes-
day morning, with two or three others. He
vainly attempted to find the place of egress.-
They then proceeded TO the mouth, and under
The guidance of the Engishman, found the
place where he had left his friend, but he va
not TO be fund
The Captain in his uncertainty 6f The escape
of his companion, felt impe!fed 10 renew his
efforts to extricate himself, and CROPPED on, un-
til exhausted nature compelled him to give up
in despair. The party ID search returned for
further assistance, and were eagerly joined BY
The officers and crew Of four steamers At
two o'clock on Wednesday they entered, and
proceeding to the place where Capt. Gray Was
last seen, they divided, and proceeding ia diff
fcreni directions, continued The search till three
o'clock on Thursday morning, when, TO the
great joy Of all. he was found. He had set
himself down 10 die. He had not only worn
his gloves completely out, but his fingers We're
worn 10 the naked born, in his vain efforts 10
extricate himself. The flesh was worn from
his knees, and his boot toes and pant legs We're
also demolished. He was found at distance
Of three and half miles from the mouth Of the
cave, eteatIy exhausted. IIG Is now on board
his bbat and doing well. He Vas fofty-three
hours in tl.e cave.
The great cave has many outlets or Chin
neys, as they are called, one Of Which Is sad

Count Bodisco's Wife.

He had always mingled pleasantly with so
ciety at Washington but the tie which con-
nected him most nearly to America, originated
in singular instance of love at first sight
He was one day walking with friend out to-
wards Georgetown Heights, when he passed
boarding school for young ladies, and was
attracted fy fair girl of l6, who stood swing
ing her bag and talking with great animation
10 some Of her competitions. Who is that
beautiful girl! who is she = eagerly asked he !.
but his friend could not inform him. The door
opened, and in she went, to her states and
books, all unconscious Of the daguerreotype
that glimpse had left on the heart Of the grave
Russian Minister. The next day, and the day
following, saw him taking the same walk,
which subsided to slow step as he approach
ed the building, and looked earnestly at every
door and window. May day was at hand, and
was to be celebrated, as usual, in the school,
by some simple festivities, and in the choice
Of Queen from among the number and this
year the floral royalty happened to fall on
Miss Harriet Williams, the very girl who
had 50 instantly enthroned herself in the ad-
miration of the foreigner.
Just before May day, the Principal was sur
prised 10 receive note from the Russian En-
voy in Washington, expressing great interest
in Education, and begging permission to be
present at the festivities Of May day which it
would give him particular pleasure as stran-
ger to the customs Of the country to witness:
Consent, Of course, was very gracously gran
ted, and the occasion was as charming as youth
and flowers always make it. At the end of
the term, Miss Harriet announced that she
should not attend school any more. What
not graduate oh, why not are you going
awayp But she shook her head, and kept
her own counsel and in a few weeks was the
wife Of the Russian Minister. She has ac-
companied her husband once or twice to hus-
sia, where she was very much admired, and
called the American Rose Her face had
regularity Of feature, but was particularly dis
tinguished for exquisite colnring. Nothing
