:, An instance Of great heroism on the part Of =
young man, Captain William Jackman, is related
in the Newfoundland papers a. having occurred
at Labrador during the violent hurricane of
October 9th last. So extraordinary is the story,
that were it not vouched for by the best author
ty, it would appear Incredible. A vessel called
the Sea Slipper had struck on reef near place
called Spotted Island, Labrador, at which were
no residents. This young man, Captain, Jack
man, being providentially in the neighborhood,
witnessed the vessels striking, saw her fall asun.
der, with number Of persons on her deck and
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS as it afterwards appear
ed, ). To save some Of those poor creatures, Mr..
Jackman cast himself into the sea, and swan to
the wreck, distance hundred fanthoms or moro
from the shore The hurricane, at this time was
at its height, accompanied by snow. Eleven
times did this hereto man swim between ship
and shore, each time bringing q man from the
wreck and placing him IN safety BY this time
persons from a nsighboriny settlement had ar
rived with ropes. q Sixteen trips moro did the
noble sailor make. conducting all the survivors
in safety to the shore. 1t seldom falls to oar lot
to relate more heroic conduct. Captain jack
man ii said to be as modest as he is brave, and
when spoken to on the subject will not allow
that he did anything more than his duty. APP.
plication is TO be made on his behalf by tho
magistrate of the district, to the Royal Humane
Society for its gold medal, which will undoubt-
edly b. promptly granted. se

At the last meeting of the Board of Di.
rectors of the Richmond Chamber of Com
merce, the President, Mr.. David I. Burr,
made verbal report to the effect that he
had, as instructed by the Board, forward
ed to the Secretary of the Treasury at
Washington the memorial on the subject
of the custom-house regulations in New
York, which had been drawn up by the
Committee on Outward Trade and adopted
by the Board. Also, that the resolution
instructings the special committee on
James river TO confer and act with the col
lector of the port on the subject Of remov-
ing so much of the distractions Of the river
as are under the control of the Treasury
Department had been complied with. Also,
that he and Mr.. Cameron had attended
and operated with the convention OF. to-
bacconists recently held in Washington
for the purpose of securing reduction Of
the tobacco tax, and the establishment of
such other regulations as would be bene-
fetal to the trade. In connection with
this subject the President drew the atten-
tion of the Board to the action of the State
Convention ordering q memorial from that
body to be forwarded to Congress urging
the justice and Importance Of a reduction
of the tax on tobacco. -

B1LeERY Us. BRANCH s Co.-The ques-
ton in this case, which now stands upon o
demurrer, is whether bill of exchange
drawn by bank in Richmond upon bank
in New Orleans after the latter city was
captured by the Federal forces in 1862 is
valid, legal instrument. The defendants
are sued as endorsers of the bill.
The argument was opened on Thursday
by Mr.. Leigh R. Page, Of Page & Msury,
and was replied to by Mr.. Fitzhugh. Yes
terday Mr.. James Alfred Jones rejoined,
and was followed by General Wise, who
will probably continue his argument Mon
day after which, Judge Crump will con-
clude the discussion.
The case is one which seems to excite
great attention from the members of the
bar, it being understood that there are
many other cases depending of like cha
racter.

APPOINTMENT OF COMMISSIONER OF THE
REvENUE.-By order of General Schoheld,
Mr.. E. B. Boutwell, has been appointed as
commissioner of the revenue for the hrst
district Of the city of Richmond, to supply
the vacancy occasioned by the death OF
the late John NJ. Francisco. By the terms
of the order he is empowered to perform
all the duties of the. Office until his success
sor is elected and qualified according to
law, and is allowed to appoint one or more

Office of the clerk of the Hastings Court OF
the city of Richmond the oath and bond
required by the laws Of the State, and the

Mr.. Boutwell, was an officer in the Uni

we'll known to many of our citizens. we
regard this as an excellent appointment,
and If General Schoield continues to I'LL
vacancies with such men we shall have no
fault to find with him in this regard.
