Honor to Whom Honor Is Due.
Peck Sun.l

The publication of a selected poem in the .Sna, a short time since, entitled !" The Children" and credited 10 the pen of Charles Dickens, the novelist, called out the following correction from the well.known poet and writer, Bepi F,
 IA beautiful poen entitled The Chil- dren graces the SEa of the 2s h instant writteR by Charles Dickens and found in his desk after his death.' That it was found in his desk is an evidence of the good taste of the povelist, and that is the only truth in the statement.
 "The poem was written by Chas. M Dickeuson, Esq the accomplished editor of the Binghamton (N. Y.) RtpEblifaS and published by him long before the death of the novelist.
 l. The tenacity with which, despite all proof and assertion to the contrary, a wrong name clings to a poem is some. thing u0ndeffvl. begin to think my friend, Mir. Dickensoh, has no remedy except to do what he was long ago ad- vised, gather his exquisite poems Into a book and with them The Children. Even then, probably, somebody will charge him with having stolen t eut. right--kidnapped the whole school dis trict--but there the poem will stand in contradiction, among its own rythmical kindred, proving plainly enough that whoever wrote The Children wrote the whole book"
 Rollo Edwin Smith, of Reading, Pa |, also sent the following; and as he says, the similarity between the names-Chas. Nj. Dickcnson and Chas. Dickens was probably the way the mistake orig inaliy occurred
 "May be permitted to correct this error, and say that this poem was not found in Mir. Dickens desk, but was the happy conception of Mir. Cbas. M. Die kinson, at that time a practicing lawyer of Bipghsmton, N. Y., and is to. day editor of the Daily RebH6lieas, of that city, who will, think, substantiate my assertion. This mistake has oc- cured before. owing to the similarity of names, no doubt."

Cleveland has not given me all asked for,
by any means For instance, l was very
anxious that Mr.. Mcdonald should
be in the cabinet, and l worked
hard to secure thot result, but l
told Mr.. Cleveland that if after
maturely considering all had said upon the
subject he did not see his way to act in har-

FIGHTING GALES AT SEA.

The vOy age of the Lizzie CARRIER
Ofcers and Crew suffer from TemPests
and Coda Seaman Lost Overheard.
The two.masted schooner Lizzie Carr
arrived in port yesterday from DuXbury,
Mass, after an unusually long and stormy
voyage of 80 days, during which one man
was lost and her officers and crew suf-
fered intensely from the bitter cold and
the heavy seas and sleet which COM
pletely covered the decks and rigging
with ice.
The vessel sailed on Jan. IA with car
go Of 400 tons of guano. Her officers and
crew numbered seven men, all told. Soon
after leaving port series OF violent gales
set in from the northwest and southwest,
veering backwards and forwards, and the
entire trip, with the exception OF few
DAYS. was a fight against gales and hurri-
canes. With the intense cold, the water
and ice-cOated decks, the frozen rig
ging and the continual rolling
and pitching of the vessel, her crew suf-
fered the greatest discomfort. A NEWS
reporter boarded the vessel as she lay In
the Ocean steamship COmpany's slip last
night, The story of her voyage was told
nv Capt. Turner. After fighting a success
sion of gales along the upper coast, the
vessel was run into the Gulf stream to get
out of the ice. She rolled heavily and
shipped large quantities of water, render
Ing work on deck and in the rigging al
most impossible. Capt. Turner had the
ends Of the fingers of his right hand frost
bitten. First mate Rivers was benumbed
by the biting cold and the crew suffered
severely,
on Jan. 2S, at 6 p. M, in latitude 40 80
", longitude - W, between MOntauk
Point and Chinnecock Light, young sea-
man, about so years Of age, named
John Heragers, belonging in Massachu-
sets, while putting up the side lights In
the rigging, slipped his fOothold from the
icy ropes and, as the vessel rolled, went
overheard and was lost. The crew was
on deck and saw him as he fell into the
sea, but were unable to lower boat or
20 to his rescue. He was not seen after
he struck the water. The vessel was
mass of ice, the wind blowing gale with
tremendous seas washing over the decks.
After fighting the storm through the
week the vessel changed her course and
hauled in towards port. The thick coat
of ice and the slippery decks made her
management almost impossible. The
waves broke over her sides and swept her
decks in almost unbrOken volume, and
her safe arrival seems almost providen-
tlal. AS il was she sustained consid-
cradle damage. Her main gait and boom
and forerigsing were carried away,
foresail split and forward bulwarks
on the port side washed away. Rer
boat was broken from the
dayits astern, but was saved.
In spite of all the damage to her decks
and rigging the vessel remained tight.
After the loss of one OF her men she was
compelled to scud before the wind and
sea for twenty hours. The cold was Bit
ter, and with the iced decks, the men
could not have stood it much longer. On
Friday, Feb. Is, in latitude 93:40, and
longitude 20, she was spoken by the
schooner Paul Seavey, from Cape Hay
tien to New York, to whom an account
Of the voyage was reported.

CURED the great fire which devastated
the same locality and swept the

entire district from Harrison to Pine and
West Broad to Farm was destroyed.

these disastrous scenes would have
been repeated. The firemen work
ed herOically, and the citizens
came forward and rendered their services
when they were most needed. Mayor
