Heroic Conduct.


At the bathing hour on Thursday, at At
lantic City, scene was enacted which
will long be remembered by those who
witnessed it. An eXcursionist went in to
battle, and was soon carried beyond the
breakers being a very large man, he
floated without difficulty, and was sup
posed by those who saw him to be sup
ported by liic-preserver. In few mo-
ments it became evident that the man was
perfectly helpless and drowning. An ex-
cited crowd gathered upon the beach.
How to reach the doomed man was the
question: no boat could be obtained: q
line procured became cntapglcd, when
suddenly a gentleman rushed into
the breakers, regardless OF danger
with steady stroke he swan directly to
the drowning man-reaching him, found
that he was sinking. With admirable
presence of mind the swimmer turned the
almost drowned mans head and body to-
ward the shore, and then depressing his
knees below the water, deliberately swan
to the beach, pushing the body before him.
AS the inscnsibc man approached the
breakers his friends formed a line, re-
ceivcd his body, and then, by the vigorous
application of the usual means, restored
him to consciousness. The name of the
bold, brave man who thus, al the peril Of
his own life, rescued fellow being, was

Yesterday afternoon, while quite a

snproaching on a hard-trotting gray morse
= nlain- looking old man, dressed IN gray
clothes, with broad -brimmed slouch nat,
his arms swinging loosely by his side, but
Win head erect, and graceful, easy car

nr many a battle field whose cannon had

Ccttysburg: and who, in that last and most
irving moment, beneath the apple tree in
