Gaslamtry of sailors.

The achievement Of the United States
squadron ct Marseilles, France, is causing q
good deal Of comment abroad. That city
and thousand merchant ships were sctu-
ally saved from destruction BY the dlscip-
line, skill and intrepidity of the officers aud
men.
The equadron, consisting Of the, Wabash,
Congress, Brooklyn, Plymouth, Shensn-
dosh, Juniats, and wscbusette, under the
command Of Admiral Alden. lay In the Ma
poleon Basin, amid innumerable merchant
men OF every description and from every
nation. Shortly after midnight au exploe-
ion startled the city, followed by fire and
dense clouds of heavy smoke, which issued
from sn Italian ship just arrived from Phila-
delpbia with a cargo Of petroleum. The
nature Of the danger soon became evident,
and it seemed impossible to prevent the
spreading Of the fire from ship 10 ship, as
they lay in such macs, and general con
aagration seemed Imminent, for the bouses
extended down to the wharf on every side.
No city Of France has the means to extln-
guish great fire, and hence the people
gathered, contemplating the scene in panic>
stricken, fascinated horror.
Presently . well-manned boat came from
the part Of the basin Illuminated by the
blaze and pulled directly toward the burn
ing ship. This was soon followed by ar
other, then third, ten, twenty, all the
boats Of the American squadron. A mol
ment later men were seen on the deck OF
the burning ship. The silence Of the peo-
pie on shore was such that they conld bear,
through The smothered roar and crsckle Of
the fire, the word ofcommsnd and blows of
axes. The people were thinking Of the
hundreds of barrels Of petroleum below and
Its possible escape on shore and communica-
ton to other ships, perhaps Others with pc
troeum, and in Imagination conceived the
whole surface Of the basin covered with
blazing oil. Presently the burning vessel
began to settle. She bad been scuttled and
ber cargo was now under water. the deck
being level with the surface. The danger
from the escape Of burning petroleum was
still Imminent, when line Of boats lashed
together stern and stern, was seen pulling
away, and as the file Strengthened out the
burning chip moved also, and was slowly
towed ou: to ibs bay by over two hundred
well'msnned oars. 1t was only then that
an immense cheer broke from tho thousands
Of people who ielt inexpreasible gratitude
for their salvation of the city.
