BRAVE AND COURAGEOUS MEN.-It must
require courage of high degree to per.
form the feats which we detail below,
which caused the Royal Humane Society
of England to award the silver medal
lion to Mr.. John Dodd, United States
Consul at Tansin, and Mr.. Margary,
British Consul at the same time. a vic.
lent typhoon having burst over the
North coast of Formosa, three vessels
with crews, numbering forty men, were
blown from the anchorage in Kelung
harbor, and dashed upon the rocky
shores. The night was very dark, but
the dangerous condition of the vessels
was plainly revealed by the light of
burning camphor. A rope having been
made secure to the shore. the two gen
tlemen volunteered to carry it to the
nearest vessel, an English schooner.
After attempting to wade through the
surf with the rope, which proved too
short. they boldly swan through the
raging SEQ, and, after great difficulties,
succeeded in rescuing the crew of the
schooner. If they had rested from their
labors here, they would have been de-
serving of the greatest praise for their
courage, but the two Consuls, who ap-
pear to have had a good deal of tue
spirit of the Roman Consuls, determined
to save the crew of French bark aud
an English vessel which were on the
rocks at distance of mile from the
scene of their previous exploit. Altar
repeated efforts by these two brave men,
tho crews of the two vessels were saved.
Once, the two Consuls swan through
tho surf with the wounded boatswain in
their arms.

A Havana letter of August 10 gives an
account of piece of bloody retaliation.
The Spaniards captured the Cuban Gen.
Inolan and his aide-de- camp, and shot
them both. Soon after, seven Spanish
officers were taken by the Cuban. Agra
monte. Two commissioners were sent
to him to treat for the prisoners release.
He offered to exchange them for Inclan
and his aide. This was necessarily do
clined, and, in the course of the conver-
sation, the military murder was acci-
dentally revealed. General Agramonte
invited the commissioners to breakfast
with him. He did not exactly serve up
their friends hearts as part of the meal,
but when q volley of musketry sounded
outside, he said: II regret, gentlemen,
that ! cannot release my prisoners; they
are already shot,"
