AGAn8S
Last Friday evening, several young gem
tlemen started on the yacht Pastime on
pleasure excursion to Point Clear. They
had proceeded to about twelve miles.
when the lively breeze under which they
had been sailing stitfened to a gale. The
two sailors who made up the crew pro-
phesied big blow, and according to their
advice tho vessel was turned about to re-
trace her course. About two and half
miles from Choctaw Point, while rushing
at the rate of fifteen miles an hour, the
yacht struck a beacon light pole and
stove in her bow. She rapidly filled,
and in short time sunk in twenty feet
water. The hatches were secured, and
each man hell them with one hand
and with the other clung to the rig
ging. The storm Increased its fury and
the toaming billows at every surge swept
over the unfortunate excurSionists Ina
short time Mr.. Bell and one of the sailors
concluded to try to reach; the shore. TAX
ing hatch. lid, three feet by six, they began
their perilous voyage, and after two hours
hard struggling, accomplished their object
Night dragged its slow length along, but
daylight brought no prospect of rescue,
and the strength of thoset remaining with
the wreck was well nigh exhaustcd.-
Seven or eight hours spent in cIiuging to
ropes and bits of plank, and being exposed
to q fierce storm, raging sea and cold,
beating rain, are enough=to exhaust tile
fortitude of the most enduring. Afte,,
waiting in vain for some sign of relief,
Major Richardson and tho OTHER sailor a
also took hatch lid MS buoy. and start
ed for the light house, distant some one
and half miles. This was deemed q
hopeless venture, in the exhausted condi-
ton of the parties, but fate and tide were
propitious, and they had nearly reached
their destination when the epropeller Neofie,
Captain Keys anne along and took. them
on boarG. The Neatie then went for
Messrs. Weaver and Buchanan, who had
stayed with the wreck. The young men!
lost many valuables! in the way Of watches,
money, &c. We learn it is the Intention
Of the young gentlemen to present to Capt.
Keys some suitable testimonial of their
grAtitude.-N. o. Pieayune.

PRoy. WIsE's BALLOON CoLLApsEs-A
Periious DeScent.-The ascension of Prof.
Wise, in his beautiful balloon, the Skylark,
from Petcrsburgh, Va, on Thursday after
noon, calne ncnr ending seriously. 1t ap-
pears be reached an altitude of about one
mile, crossed james river twice, and was
seen from City Point All this time gas
was slowly escaping from small rent ac-
cidentally made in the balloon before start
ing The Petersburg ErpreSs says About
fourteen miles from Richmond, of which
city he had fine view, he commenced to
make for large field of several hundred
acres, and by means of skillful manage
ment descended gently towards it. When
about one thousand feet from the earth
and directly over the field, the fissure in the
balloon rapidly enlarged, attaining alength
of between ten and fifteen feet. The es--
cape of gas was now tremendous, and the
descent tearfully rapid and direct. The
professor leaped up into the rigging, de-
signing to escape the shock which threat
ened the car upon reaching the ground
The prccaution was doubtless we'll, but
did not avert the whole danger. The car
struck the ground with terrible force, the
balloon completely collapsed, fell, and the
professor was thrown violently backwards
over the car, his back striking the rim and
nearly knocking him senseless. A large
number of persons who were following
him below and saw him fall, we're unable
to find him until after long search, the
descent being made ina sort of glen, rank
ly overgrown with weeds, where he lay,
hardly able to move, for half an hour,
when he was discovered Such was the
violence of the shock that his watch
bounded from his pocket, aud being torn
loose, was thrown several yards away
Prof. Wise was not seriously injured
