oAA Aoc1 e4 udTo hHO tuIte VI us got On 20
it, as soon az we realized that we were left
to battle for ourselves. Mate Sheldon sue
ceeded in getting on to large piece of
the raft about 15x12 feet in
size, the raft on which we were
when found. When 1 got on my raft
said, "Where are you, captain" and he
answered, "Right here,' and then saw
that he had drifted off five or six yards.
That was the last saw or heard of the
captain and the rest OF the crew, and I
suppose they all sunk in very few min
utes. You might as well say that the cap
tain and three of the crew
WENT DOWN WITH THE CRAFT,
for they could not have lived longer than
five or six minutes in such sea and with
nothing to cling to except two or three
small poles. I realized that the
three of US on the small
raft could not remain above
water very long, so got hold of a small
piece of board and managed to paddle to-
ward the larger raft on which the mate
had crawled. We deserted the smaller
raft and about Z o'clock the four of US
found ourselves on the raft on which we
we're found dashed around at the mercy of
the waves. Didn't we suffer! I can't be-
gin to describe to you what we exper-
fenced. The air was bitter cold, and a
fierce gale was prevailing. There appeared
to be number of posts that lodged under
the raft, and that was all that kept us from
sinking. To make matters worse the stew
ard became raving maniac during
Thursday; night, and it was all that two
of US could do to keep the poor fellow on
the raft. All through the night and dur
ing Friday the man fought us, and several
times he succeeded in getting into the
water, but we dragged him back. About
o'clock yesterday afternoon his strength
gave out and after last maniacal strug
gle he died. We held on to his BODY for
a while, but had to let it wash overheard
finally, as we had no way of fastening it to
the raft.

The Orange GroUe says I'VE are firmly OF
the opinion that there is nothing better or safer
to invest in than good lands in Florida W hat

80, 500 or 5000 acres of splendid land right in

In Middle Florida lands set out in LeConte
pear orchards have increased in value more than
900 per cent. in twelve months Lands that
could be bought near Tallahassee a few years
ago for few dollars per acre, and which have
been set out in LeConie pear trees during the
past eighteen months, can hardly be bought for
any price now. We know one gentleman who
has more than once refused 500 per acre for his

An amusing incident occurred In this city
last Wednesday morning Previous TO the IS
sembline of the Congressional Convention q
delegate from Escambia, instructed for Hon. G.
g. McWhOrter, met Q delegate from Gadsden,
who was instructed for Hon. r. 81. d. Davidson.
The conversation very naturally led to Discus
sion of the merits of their respective favorites-
their availability, prospects, claims, &c. The
Escambia delegate is reported as saying, In sub
stance +" McWhdFter Is the man for our people
he is able and popular and the Nc just suits
the good Scotch citizens OF West Florida" &c.
The Gadsden county delegate suggested that as
Davidson had rather lengthy name, perhaps
his favorte could also furnish the desired Nc"
and little Scotch blood, too AS the converse
ton progressed the Gadsden delegate revealed
the fact TO his Escambia friend that Mr. David
sons ancestors were really Scotch, and that the
M in his name was an abbreVlation of Nc
Whorter" The Escambia delegate good
naturally admitted that Mr. Davidson, since
the discovery of these two necessary adjuncts to
popular favor, possessed all the qualities that he
claimed for Mr. McWhorter. So the Convention,
by nominating Hon. Robert Hamilton McWhor-
ter Davidson for the fourth term in Congress
gave the South and Middle Florida delegates the
man they wanted, and in that man they also
furnished the West Florida delegate with his
Nc and his Scotch blood. Now, as all got just
what they wanted, let the South, the Middle and
the West go 10 work for their candidate, just as
they would have done had Mr.. McWhorter or
any other man been nominated with determi-
nation to elect him. If every Democrat does his
duty, and we entertain no doubts on this subject,
Mr.. Davidson will be elected by handsome ma
jority. 50 So mote il be-"

Don't Cut the Operas.

TO the Editor OF THE EVENING STAR:
In view Of the fact that we are to have three
nights OF italian opera next week, it might be
well to invite the attention of the management to
what has lately caused some comment in musical
circles of this city. The practice of ''cutting"
operas-that is, of emitting arias, and frequently
Is unconscious OF the fact and for the sake OF hu
rylng through an opera-has become rather too
cultured audiences, who pay the highest prices
for Seats it is adding insult to injury. 1t requires
no more expense, and very little more physical ex-
ert1on, to perform an opera technically and thor
oughiy, than to rush through it, as q thing to be
done quickly, as was the case with the perform
hope, Mr.. Editor, that you will lend your cooper
alton to prevent an injustice, which can only be
averted with the assistance Of the press.
