FIVE MONTHS AT SEA.
TempestuOus Experiences of Two East India
Merchantmen.

Tempe st uOus Experiences of Two East India
Merchantmen.
The vessels which arrived at New York
from the East Indies Monday encountered
very severe weather off the Cape of Good
Hope, and each sustained considerable
damage. Captain Reynolds, Of the ship
Highland Light, of Boston, from Manila,
reports that he was 159 days in making
the passage. On August 6, when the ship
was about to round the Cape, the bad
weather set in. Strong gales blew from
the west and northwest and caused fear
full cross sea, i'll which the ship labored
heavily. Huge volumes Of water dashed
over her decks, breaking down the boat
house was smashed in and the wheel was
broken. Spare spars, which had been lashed
Oh either side of the main deck, got adrift
and were washed about. The running rig
ging was torn up, and the holsters under the
lower rigging were crushed down. This
slackened the standing rigging SO that the
upper works were severely strained, and
the ship began to leak badly. The work
Of securing the drifting spars was very
dangerous. When the ship was steady
enough the pumps were kept working.
On August Is, after continuing for twelve
days with great violence, the storm SUBJ
sided. The crew had succeeded in max
ing repairs, and had secured new sails in
the place Of those which had been split
during the gales. On the following day
the Cape of Good Hope was passed, and
the ship stopped leaking.
Captain Davis, of the bark Grace Deer
ing from Iloilo, states that he was 1873
days in making the passage. On June 20
the bark called at Batavia for supply of
fresh provisions. On August II she was
off the Cape of Good Hope in terrible
northwesterly gale. The sea ran high and
extremely confused, waves frequently
breaking over the decks. The BOBBY hatch
was stove in, the water casks, which had
been lashed on deck, were smashed, and
everything movable was washed from the
decks. The bark rolled heavily, but did
not leak badly. The schooner E. NJ. Cook,
which arrived from Brunswick, Ga, on
Saturday evening, encountered a heavy
northeasterly gale off the Southern coast.
About 800 feet of lumber, which had
been secured on deck, was washed away.

in most quarters q majority increased over
that Of 1876. The committee has fifty
speakers engaged in an active canvass and
they are assisted by over 500 loca! speakers.
Among the gentlemen who will speak dur
ing the coming week throughout the state

lteIns From tho Upper End.


Our Regular Correspondence,
On Saturday Prof. Brickenstein. princi-
pal of the Linden Hall seminary of Lititz.
allowed his pupils to make their annual
excursion to Elizabeth farms for chestnuts.
Seven wagons of various sizes and shapes
were required to transport them, and Ger
tainly these rough farm wagons never bore
fairer burdens. They were we'll supp; ;ej
with eatables and lunched under tho ,,rand
old chestnut trees ON the commons Of
Elizabeth farms. There were iifty pupils
and were accompanied six teachers and the
principal. They picked chestnuts until
they we're tired, and about 4 O'Clock. with
great deal Of shouting and waving of
flags started for home. All appeared to
enjoy themselves and no doubt the ramble
over the hills was quite treat.
"Bally" Marks and Ed. Brubaker
managed to gather together sufficient
number of Republicans at Brickerville on
last Friday night to raise a sapling about
so feet high. There was no speech making
for the simple reason there were no speech
makers present.

Grows Gabble.

Hon. Galusha A. Grow, candidate for
the United States Senate from this good
ly and peace-loving commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, made speech at Colum-
bia the other evening before a large
number of the constituents of the
prospective Legislators who are in
structed to further Mr.. Grows sena-
torial aspirations. Mr.. Grow is an ar
dent believer in the efficacy of the bloody
shirt as means of Republican salvation,
and his performance on this occasion was
nothing outside the usual run. His
abuse of the South and Southern people
had the ancient and fishlike odor which
has long since become offensive in the
nostrils of intelligent and sensible peo-
pie, and if the Republican chairman of the
county committee wants to make votes
for Hancock-he will continue to pa
rade this rabid exponent of the long since
exploded dogma of Radical Republican,
ism over the fertile acres of this garden
spot of a reunited country. Our inhab-
itants are in 4 position to know
and appreciate the value OF the
craftsmanship of the plough" which
North and South, has served to
restore the country to the high
road of prosperity from which it
had departed through the false financial
policy of the Boutwells and Richard
sons, and other incompetent if not dis
honest heads of the treasury department.
Mr.. Grow may rave over and denounce
the South rs disloyal and inimical to na-
tiois.i prosperity, but the careful obser-
yer of events will have no difficulty in
perceiving, as Mr.. Bayard so clearly
points out, that but for the industry of
the Southern people and the production
of their staples the balance of trade
would have been against us steadily and
be so to-day. In the light of this truth
it is little less than imbecile to preach
here, in this centre of agricultural wealth
and intelligence, the doctrine that the
Southern states are bitterly hostile to
the prosperity of their Northern sisters,
and that policy which discOurages
their industry and alienates their affec-
tions and sympathies is the safe, proper
and patriotic one to follow. Farmers,
mechanics, labOring men and business
men will receive such utterances as Mr..
Grows ut their just valuation.

hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the

the people of the Southern metropolis have
entered into this affair with extraordinary
spirit. The newspapers have gone wild on
the subject, and their readers appear to

exertions to arouse the slumbering patriot

enumeration. Both Mr.. Schurz and Mr..
