LATE STORM ON THE ENGLISH


. During fearful gale at o'clock
on the morning of the 10Th ultimo, the
cable ola coasting sloop, the Mary
and Ann, Of Newport, ,,P Pembroke, snap
ped asunder close under the cliffsabout
half mile below where tie French,
invading force under General Tate
landed on Pencsher, sixty-seve, years
ago. Intelligence of the wreck was
brought to Fishguard Life boat Sta
ton, and the life boat was expeditions
Ily manned and rowed round the coast
TO the spot. The Sloop was wrecked
against small precipitous island,
with channel between it and the
main land about forty yards across,
through which the sea burst with grca,
fury. One of the crew of the sloop
was cast by the waves one the side Of
the cliff facing the land. Another
could be seen laying on his stomach
with his head windward, clinging to q
ledge of rock seaward of the island
every wave washing over him.
Several ladders were lashed togcthe,
and rope made fast to the top
This extempore bridge was thrown
across the channel, but was immedi-
ately broken by the force of the waves
and the ladders and rope washed adrifl
The life boat arrived, but from dan.
ger Of being wrecked could not be O
any service. Albert Furlong, aged !!
a native Of Fishguard, then volunteered
to swim across the channel, with :
rope to his waist, so as to be hauled
back il, ,unsuccessful;bu the bystanders
refused, Judging by the fury of tho
waves, and his apparent physical ca:
ipacity for such feat. that he would
certainly be drowned David Beddoe
seaman, nothing daunted by Their
refusal, slipped. of'his coat dwaist

and plunged into the sea, closely

actully ran away, ssrather than see two
men drown in that way.''

thereby to getya footing beyond. the.
reach of the waves.
Their late companions had BY this
time mustered curiosity to look afler
their fate; and seeing the heroes 70 far,
safe, one yentured to cross with. a rope,
and was pulled up by Beddoe and
Furlong. q It was a. comparatively
easy task to rescue the man on the.
land side Of the island, but work Of
great difficulty to climb down the sea-.
ward side of the cliff and save the one
on the ledge Of rock, who by this ttime,,

A stone was made fast to the end of:
a rope and thrown to him, and he had.
sufficient: animation to make it fast
around himself, and was hauled to the
summit of the island. They were all
afterwards drawn to the main land
One lad, aged IA, was washed away
from the wreck and was drowned
The man who had been on the Ledge
was about 60, and by the time he
reached the main land, his arms were,
stiff in the position lie grssped tho:

OF THE BUSINESS CAPACITY OF
LITERARY MEN. 1

There is a common and unfounded
prejudice that the pursuit of letters
units man for the ordinary business
Of life. For this prejudice literature is
itself accountable. Great satirists,
such as Pope and Dryden, cmbalmed
in immortal verse the poverty of their
manner craftsmen, but never dreamed
that what was truth as spoken of their
enemies would be regarded as true of
all the class to which they belonged.
That they were able to take care Of
themselves and their incomes, without
the intervention of guardians and com.
mittees, their biographies, and their
scorn, so freely uttered Which would
have been pointless if easily retorted
may assure us. But their ages except
ed as wholly and generally true, what
was false, except partially and indiyid-
ually; and posteritys indiscriminating
and Indifferent, receives and echoes
the old alsehooa. ~.. - -. ',..G
The greatest genius is ever the most
capable, reliable, and practical. Look
at the poets-the representative men
of what Carlyle has called the t1SSerapl,
Shoeblack army Of authors" In them
the vices of the literary character are
most developed. yet now few: ship.

who handled the swordas we'll as tho

hustle of camps and courts. Let us not
forget Raleigh, who wassnot only,poet
and historian, but soldier and discover
er. Remember that Shakespeare wa.
mot only bard, but actor and manager
Milton lived no life of dreams in those
rmsentimental Roundhead days of the
commonwealth. Swift, Pryor, and
Addison played great parts in the pol
|itics Of their age. In our own times
literature has become a business rathe,
than taste, and instances of the or

ley, sufficiently demonstrate that the
possession of wit,imagination, intellect
ideality and culture, aids, rather than
, embarrasses in the performance Of all
the duties of life. Nor should it be
thought strange, that ability to think
deeply and broadly, gives force and
aim to action, and that he who can
express his thoughts in noble words.
may likewise be able to express it in
deeds as noble if need be.

CARL ScuURz. Milwaukee
Press and News las the following in
regard to this interesting "bag of
wind"
A countryman Of Mr.. Schurz informs
us that his claims to revolutionary hon.
ors are entirely groundless; that it is
not political but criminal otfenses from
which he is fugitive; that instead OF
being the patriot and hero which his
friends have represented him, he is
only |.jail-breaker," a tsrescucr,'
like Booth and Daniels; and that in
the rescue of Kinkel-the only offense
against the government with which
he stands charged-he was but the
hired instrument Of others. Mr.. Kin
kel had been tutor to many of the
nobility, and those persons desired his
release without compromising the
government; they therefore employed
Schurz and furnished him the means
Of accomplishing the object without
risk or sacrifice other than to expatriate
himselfto avoid future exposure. Thu:
stripped Of the romance with which
he has been invested, this Schurz be
comes a very common fellow; \ mere
public exhibitor, with no other meri
than that Of > clever actor who has
remarkable faculty for dressing uF
other mems thought tor stage effect
and striking audacity in appropria
ting other mems honors. The admin
istration ought to take care OF him, 70,
he is certainly played out here, morally
politically and financially.

RACE WITH A BULL.

I Some forty years ago the manager
Of a race course near Brownsville, on
the Monongahela, published notice OF
a race, one mile heats, on a particular
day, for purse of one hundred dollars,
"Frec for anything with four legs and
hair on.''
A man in the neighborhood named
Hays had q bull that he was in the hab.
! it Of riding to mill with his bag Of corn,
and he determined to enter him for the
race. He said nothing about it to any
one, bnt he rode him around the track
a number of times, on several moonlight
nights, until the bull had the hang of
the ground pretty well, and would
keep the right course. He rode with
spurs, which the bull considered disa-
grecablc; SO much SO that he always
beloved when they were applied to
his sides.
On the morning Of the race, Hays
came upon the ground on horseback
on his bull. Instead of saddle, he
had dried an OK hide, the head part Of
which, with the horns still on, he had
placed on the bu!1's rump. He carried
short tin horn in his hand. He rode
to the Judges stand and offered to
enter his bull for the race, but the
owners Of the horses that were entered
objected. Hays appealed to the terms
OF the notice; insisting that his bull
had "four rlcgs and hair on" and there
fore he had 4 right to enter him. After
a good deal Of swearing, the judges
declared themselves compelled to de.
eide that the bull had the right to run,
and was entered accordingly.
When the time for starting had ar
rived, the bull and the horses took
their places. The horse racers were
out of humor at being bothered with
the bull, and at the burlcsque which
they supposed was intended, but
thought that it would be over as soon
rs the horses started.
When the signal was given, they
did start. Hays gave a blast with
his horn, and sunk his spurs into the
side Of the bull, who bounded off with
a terrible bawl, at no trifing speed, the
dried OK hide Topping up and down,
and rattling at every jump, making a
combination of noises that had never
been heard on 4 race course before.
| The horses all flew the track, every
one seeming to be siezed with a sud
den determination to take the short
est cut to get. out Of the Redstone
country, and not one of them could be
brought back in time to save theil
distance. The purse was given tc
Hays.
i 4 general row ensued; but the far
Of the thing put the crowd on thebull's
side The horscmen contenled that
they were swindled out Of their purse
and that if it had not been for Hays
horn and OK hide, which lie ought no,
Ito have been permitted to bring upor
the ground, the thing would not have
) turned out as it did.
Upon this, Hays toll them that hi!
bull could beat any Of. their horses
!. anyhow, and if they would put up :
hundred dollars against the purse, Ii,
!, would take off the OK hide and leay,
his tinnorn, and run q fair race Will
Fl them. His offer was accepted, d,an1 til,
'meney s.aked.
Red Wing sentinel., 1861-04-03

They again took their places at the
starting post, t,and the signal was given.
Hays gave the bull another touch with
his spur, and the bull gave tremen-
dous below. The horses remember
ing the dreadful sound, thought all the
rest was coming AS before Away
they went again, in spite Of all the
exertions of their riders, while Hays
galloped his bull around the track and
won the money. ~. -'.-' t'%o' s.s

Persons who have seen these nightly

wont to 'rcvisit the glimrscs 81 the

like ghosts have been seen stalking IL
