Suffering at Sea.

The steamer Delta arrived at Hall
fax from Bermuda on Friday
of last week. Capt. Carroll of the
b1igantinea Hound of Halifax, who
came as passenger, reports that his
vessel was wrecked in hurricane on
August 10, in latitude 81 degrees, 36
min. north, longitude 81 degrees, 2
min. west. The Hound left Halifax on
the It'll of Aug. for Porto Rico, with a
general cargo and lumber Had variable
winds until the 10Th, when a hurricane
from north northeast struck her and
threw her on her beam ends. The
masts were then cut away, and the yes
sci righted, waterlogged. The sea con-
tinueds to break over her and swept the
decks Of, everything. g-..,s ny
The crew secured themselves as they
best could between the house and rail,
and remained there for about thirty
hours, the sea continually rolling over
them and, at times washing them loose.
They became much exhausted by their
endeavors to save themselves. When
the gale moderated they took refuge on
the top OF the house aud remained
there seventeen days until rescued, by
the brigantine Harp, Capt. Bridges, of
Newfoundland. During that time they
sustained life by eating some pieces of
salt pork which they managed to pro-
cure from the, cabin, and shark which
they caught with bovine also got
one drink Of water from the only show
er they had -if' p -
Their -sufferings from thirst were in
tense and maddening~ The steward,
John Livingston, aged 26, of New Or
leans, was washed overheard when the
vessel was thrown on her beam ends,
and drowned. On the I'd inst Michael
MacMahon, aged 10, OF Dublin, died
from exposure and suffering. The
mate, J. Connolly, died On board of
the. Harp three days after being res.
cued. He was buried IN the cemetery
at St. Georges. He belonged to Gran
vile. The Harp called at st. Georges,
Bermuda, and landed Capt. Carroll
and the rem ainder Of the crew.

new ana successful Enterprise.
From the New York Evening Post, Sept. "a
A novel feature in American exports
is the shipment of live cattle from this
point to Glasgow, to be slaughtered
for the Scottish marked The enter
prise was lately undertaken by the firm
OF John Bell & Sons, che largest whole
sale butchers in Scotland, who supply
the Anchor Lime of steamships. A
member of the firm, Henry Bell, is
now in this city, and was questioned
to-day in regard to the management
and extent of the new business,
He said the price of beef in Scotland
had advanced 50 per cent. within the
last fen years, in consequence of the
rnderpest and the rigid restrictions
subsequently imposed by the Govern
ment on the importation from abroad,
Many of these restrictions are still in
force and the importation of cattle
from certain continental countries is
absolutely prohibited. The state OF
affairs determined the firm to try
the experiment of obtaining cat
tie from the United States, the
cost of the native cattle in
the Glasgow market being from $3.50
to 1926 per head The latter price.
however, is that of only the best prize
oxen. ~ a1o
The firm sent out at first for but six
head, which arrived at Glasgow in an
Anchor steamer in the first week of
July. These proved so satisfactory
that Mr.. Henry Bell sailed for this
country on the 10Th of that month to
make the enterprise regular bust
ness. He began by sending out six
head Of cattle by each Of the Anchor
steamers, but has now increased the
number to twelve. If sufficient &C.
ommodations can be obtained he
intends to soon forward twenty by each
vessel, making an average Of forty per
week 1t is doubtful, however, if the
weekly average of this line can exceed
more than thirty.
The cattle come from Illinois, and
are bought by Mr.. Bell, at Communi-
paw, at an average Of 800 per head.
The cost of transportation, including
freight charges, feed and attendance,
averages about $75 per head; so that
the cost Of each when landed is $175.
AS the animal is equal in weight
and quality to a native bullock costing
$3.50 in Glasgow, the extra profit to the
firm is, under favorable circumstances,
about $15., No insurance is effected,
as the cost of this would almost exactly
the profit.

The story Of a Bag Of Gold.

The Kansas City Times, OF November 8,
says: On the west side of the street
leading down from the Bluff street bridge
to the Union Depot, in Kansas City, stands
a small frame house, which, before the
street was graded up, stood upon props, or
stills. 1t is called the g Texas and Colora-
do Saloon" This house has had board
nailed upon it for some time, upon which is
painted "House and Furniture for Sale"
A few days ago stranger entered the
house, and after brief conversation with
Louis Mezzadre, the old Frenchman own
ing the saloon, concluded to purchase, and
yesterday afternoon called upon the pro-
prietor with witnesses to consummate the
trade. The terms Of the trade were these !:
The purchaser, Mr.. Clew, was to pay Mez-
zadre $500 in cash for the house and all it
contained, with the exception of Mezzadfe's S
trunk and his clothing This agreement
was repeated over in the presence Of wit
nesses, and the sale affected, and the mon
ey paid over. 1t was now that the strange
and singular part Of the transaction took
place. The owner asked for hatche t,
and before any one could imagine what he
was about to do he walked TO a certain

The Whipping Post.

New Castle, Del, December 10.-The
parties found guilty of an attempt to rob
the Bank of Delaware at Wilmington, on
the 7th.of November, were publicly whipped
here to-day. The gates of the prison yard
were thrown open at about 1890, and
Carter and Hope were place in the pillory
Both bore this part of their sentence with
great equanimity, and seemed in no way
disturbed, iemarking as they We're released
from their uncomfortable position, that
they hoped that Delaware law had been
satisfied so far. At 11:27 Lawler and
Hurlburt were brought out and sent to the
stocks. The first named seemed trife
excited, but Hurlburt treated the whole
affair as good joke. By this time a nu-
merous crowd, estimated at from 3, 500 to
5000 people, had collected around the
prison, making frantic efforts to gain a
glimpse of the two now undergoing the
punishment. After Hurlburt and Lawler
had been returned to their cells, the most
important, because the most disgraceful
portion of their punishment, the whipping,
was commenced. The first man brought
out was Carter who received his forty
lashes with stolid indifference, and who
released from the post, walked firmly and
proudly back to the Jail. Hurlburt was next
chained to the stocks, and took his punish
ment brayely. The next man, Lawler, was
brought forth white and nervous, but did
not finch, and looked defiantly upon the
multitude as they jeered upon him. He
probably suffered more than either of the
others who had preceded him. Hurlburt
received the forty lashes in the same char
acteristic manner which he had exhibited
on the pillory, seeming to care little for
any portion of the sentence. The excite
ment over the affair is simply wonderful
An extra train, mainly filed with noted
Philadelphians was run from Wilmington
and came over about eleven o'clock. All

Since the above has been written it has

result of several years trading among the

SOUND ADVICE.

Some years ago q young man pre-
sented himself To the United States
Secretary, Corwin, for a clerkship.
Thrice was he refused, and still he
made fourth, but futile efors. His
perseverance, and spirit of determin-
alton awakened q friendly interest in
his welfare, and the Secretary ad-
vised him in the strongest possible
terms to abandon his purpose and go
to the West, II he could do no better
outside the departments. MY young
friend he said, go to the North
west, buy $50 acres of Government
land, or, If you have not the money
TO purchase, squat on it get you an
Ak and mattock; put up log cabin
for habitatlon, and plant q little corn
and potatoes; keep your conscience
clear and live ike a free man your
own master with no one to give you
orders, and without dependence upon
anybody. Do that and you will be-
come honored, respected, influential
and rich- But accept clerkship here,
and you sink at once all independence,
your energies become relaxed, and
you are united in a few years for
any other and more independent posi- =
ton. l may give you a place to-day,
and can kick you ont tomorrow,
and there's another man over at the
White House who can kick me out,
and the people by-snd-by can kick
him out, and 50 we go. But if you
own an acre of land, It is your king
dom, and your cabin is your castle
you are sovereign and you viii feel
it m every throbbing of your heart
aud every day of your life would
assure me Of your thanks for having
thus advised you

Decayo of Fruits,

The rapidity with which fruits de-
cay after they have ripened is owing
tothe development of certain fungi. OF
one of these, the weIl-kaowH Iaildew
Mueor stOlOnyer, WyyiIIe Thomson
says: This species is often found on
JUICY fruits, covering them with
white woolly patches scattered over
with small black heads, and producing
q very rapid putrefaction beneath the
surface of the fruit. A number of de-
licate branching filaments form a rich
network in the substance of the truit
filsments, which are easily distinguish
ed from those of some nearly allied
forms by their long simple tubes
without partitions. These delicate
filamentous tubes, which are the parts
first to appear and form the basis, as il
were, of the fungus, are called the
Mycelium, and are found in almost al
fungi.
