by the fact that the cents were mentioned, very

An AnecdOte of Palmerston.

In 1859 the editor Of the MericGn Times was in
England, and he now relates in Mexico the fol
lowing incident:--
'Driving rapidly up the Strand we met man
walking very briskly, whom we took to be our
friend Prescott, the broker Passing our arm
over the reins, we stopped the hanson, leaped
out and Immediately overlook him.
Walking side by side with him for some dis
tance, and having eyed HIM very closely, we
were sure that we had our man; SO, turning
sharply around, we slapped him heavily upon the
shoulder and said:-
"'How are you, old fellow? You don't know
me, do your

said:-
"'No, sir; don't know you.'
1--WE gave him another familiar slap, and
said:-
"'Why, is it possible you have forgotten me?
Have you never been TO Baton Rouge? Don't
you know Dan. Hickey? Don't you recollect
our balls at Brule's Landing9 Look at me well.
Don't you know A.?
/" No, sir, have never been to Baton Rouge;
/ don't know Dan. Hickey; l don't know any
thing about the balls OF Brule's Landing; have
looked at you WE'LL don't know A.
''NoW this was to us a sumner. We drew back,
and thinking that he might possibly be brother
of our sugar man, we said:-
&" Sir, be kind enough to tell me your name"
HE said quleily:-
" MY name is Palmerston.'

1--WE shall never forget the quizzical smile that
played upon his open, manly features when he
rephed:-

"A little conversation passed, in which he was
kind enough TO invite us to call and see him."

The Steamer MARY a. BORrdman'' n
Total WrecE-Tb Passengers and Crew
hnVed-One Brig and Two SchOOners
Ashore at East Dennis, Etc.

The steamer Mary A. BodrdmGn struck on
Romer Shoals on Monday night, at s. o'clock,
and now lies there q complete wreck. This
steamer was a propeller, and has carried cargo
and passengers between New York and More
head City for some time past. She left the latter
port on Friday last, at p. NJ, having on board
cargo OF cotton and rosin, as we'll as several
twenty-four persons. Captain Jordan was chef
officer In her passage she experienced very
rough weather, the cold being intense and the
wind blowing steady gale from the northwest.
At halt-past eight o'clock on Monday night she
went ashore on Romer Shoals, off Sandy Hook.
Halt an hour after she struck her steam pine
burst, hut none OF those on board were injured.
The darkness of the night prevented the
coming OF any boat to their rescue, although the
usual signal lanterns used in cases Of distress
were displayed. Toe night was passed by all on
board in state OF fearful excitement, the vessel
threatening each moment to break up, and
heavy sea rolling over her.
The morning. however, found her still ahoat,
and at about IL A. NJ yesterday the pilot boat
Isaac Webb, No. 8, saw her and bore down TO
her relief 1t was, however, two hours before
she could get alongside, there being a heavy sea,
and out two men in the boat. Shortly alter
wards the steamtug Charles Chamberlain hove
in sight and with great difficulty the entire of
those on board the wrecked vessel was transferred
to her.
Too much credit cannot be given to the pilot
boat No. s. to whose timely arrival all on board
owe their lives. Long before assistance came
the Bodrdmdn had parted IN two, and at the
time the whole number had succeeded in getting
off she was breaking up, and her timbers and
cargo drifting about.
The passengers and crew arrived in the citv
about six o'clock last evening, having lost all
their effects but we'll satisfied in having been
saved from Watery graVe.-N. Z. Herald.
