PEABODY's PERILOUs POSITION.
Relieved by the United States Reven nc
Cutter Jehn a. Dix.

On Wednesday Of last week the
French bark Peabody, Of Mantle, France,
ran ashore OH shoal to the westward
of Horn Island Pass. It was about
half-past 4 O'Clock in the evening. and
OF the time the pilot boat was lying to
su anchor inside, near Round Island.
The vessel lay aground in rather . dan
gerous situation until the next evening,
whom the revenue cutter John A. DIX,
which makes regular monthly visits to
this port, arrived, and steaming up
alongside and fastening . large bawser
to the vessel in . few moments jeikrd
her off and pulled her into the pass ans
to safe anchorage. 1t is the duty OF
all government steamers, when vessels
are in distress, to render such assistance
rs may be necessary, only charging the
vessel for the Oh, and coal used while
rendering such assistance. The bark
would probably have been lost had it
not been for Mr.. Freeman, the light
house keeper on Horn Island, who see
ing the vessel standing in for the shore
signalized her with large cloth. which
was discovered by the captain just 10
time to save himself from running upon
the shoal under foil hesdway. 1t was
when trying to put her in stays that she
grounded, being long vessel and slow
TO manage. Tide was very high at the
time and heavy sea running.

By his gentle and winning ways he attracted
every member OF the admiring household, and
became almost an idol TO his loving parents and
devoted sndmother. To them he was as
bright sun-b beam in their midst, dispelling all
clouds by his childish prattle and filing their
hearts with joy and satisfaction. But alas, in
fsntile disease preyed upon his vitslsi n burn
ing fever throbbed in his viens; the pslsying
touch of disease blighted those active powers,
and the heart-rendng catastrophe could not be
averted; the laughing eve lie quenched; the
bounding heart is s,iliedl the gleefal shcut is
hushed. Reno rseless death has blighted the
freshness of hope and premise, and clothed in
the garments of the grave one bound to paren.

this bright being just budding promise, the
mind Just awake ned to sef-consciousness, the
heart just twining its youpg affections around
all that was fair and good. Suddenly the dc.

passes over it and it is gone. But whyi 1t

left balmy fragrance where it fell. Can il

HART'S HAZARD HALTED
BY the Timely Arrival Of the sheriff
and His Deputy.

On last Sunday afternoon Sheriff
Clark heard suspicious sounds EN- .nas-
ing from the cells within the Jail. and
calling on Deputy Harrison they both
proceed to the jail to reconnoiter. On
going inside they requested Msrsin
Hart and another inmate OF cell No. to
step to the front. The officers then
went in, and upon examination found
that Hart. with the aid OF . crow-bar
and suger. had cut hole in the side OF
the wall about foot square and nearly
half through. Upon going into cell No.
2, where Randall Hawthorn and another
negro were confined, they found that
Hawthorn and his companion we're try
ing the same game. They had tried to
cut through the floor, but being unsuc-
cessiul in that the next idea Was for
Hawthorn to cut through into Hart's
cell, and Hart was to cut through into
cell No. 4 (from which Csstrix escaped
some weeks since, and which 10 now m
safe), and onoe getting In that they
could easily have escaped. The sheriff
took immediate steps to secure the
prisoners, but unless some measures are
