Perils of the peep.

PHILADELPHIA, January 1.-Two Nor
wegian sailors entered to Office of Lars
Westergaard, the Norwegian consul, to-
day. They were the only survivors of
the bark Lena, which went to pieces off
Hog Island, Va, on Sunday last. They
relate that captain Albert Mortensen, of
Arendel, Norway, whence the bark hsil-
ed, lost his bSaringsin adensefog which
hung over the sea for days, andwas con
siderably out of his course OuSSaturday
afternoon the fog lifted and the weather
cleared. AbouB 4 O'Clock the vessel
shook from stem to stern, she had,
stranded. The wind was blowing e.
gale and the sea was running very high
In moment the Lena was well up on
the bar, the waves Seating over her with.
wild fury. The weather was bitterly
cold and there was coating of ice on
the decks and rigging, which made the
movements of those en- board exceed
lngiy perilous. An effort made to
launch the boats was disastrous failure
Each was broken to- splinters by the
raging sea. The crew then chung to the
ship, full twenty-foUra hours. Their
hands and feet were benumbed and
| fresthitten, when the vessel went to
pieces and every person, or board was
preeipifated into the water. The two
survivors, Anders Isaksen and Peter
a. TOneser, seized some planks
and we're carried ashore. The
bodies of Captain MoTtsnsen and
AbranR Carlssen, n salfnake1, were
washed up and were buried on the
beach al Hog Island. Meme of the other
bodies were recovered. Theodore ] orgen-
sen was the mate, and there were seven
seamen. The captain was-ageG 80, and
leaves wife in Norway.
The ship Daisy Boyntsn, some time
ago given up for lost, arrived to-day.

Poor MCCULLOUGH.

PHILADELPHIA, January John Nc
Cullough, the actor, narrowly escaped
being run over by a railway train at
Broad street station last night. He
bought ticket for Chicago, and reached
the car shed just as the train was NOV,
ing out of the station. He dashed
through the open gate, followed by a
colored attendant, who had been sent
with him to the station, and who rushed
passed him, jumped on the train and
then attempted to assist the actor
aboard. As Mccullough grasped the
servants hands and attempted to lift
himself to the car, his foot slipped and
he fell from the platform. The colored
man exerted all his strength and lifted
him on the car, just in time to save his
being crushed. as, the swinging motion
of the train brought the cars together.

pEMocRArlc ECONOMY.

The book Of estimates recently submitted TO
Congress is not very reassuring to those who
expected speedy return to Jeffersonian
simplicity under the Cleveland administra-
ton. The President wants $1,000 more for
the care Of the executive mansion than was
appropriated last year, and notwithstanding
he sold off some of the White House horses
and carriages at the beginning of his term,
which fact was proclaimed throughout the
country as an indication that the President
was going to practice the strictest economy
in the matter of horsefesh, he thinks it will
cost as much to maintain the White House
stables as it did during President Arthur's
administration. A thousand dollars more is
wanted for the conservatory than last year
and $4,000 are asked to repair and refurnish
the executive mansion. Secretary Bayard
wants $4,000 more for clerks than was APP
propriated last year and separate printing
Office for the printing of the confidential cor
respondence of the State department. He
also wants $4,000 to pay two inspectors of
consulates to go off on what the Democrats
year ago would have pronounced junketing
tour. An increase in the contingent fund of
$4,000 would please him and $4,000 to en-
force the neutrality laws he thinks ought to
be appropriated
The Treasury department shows symptoms
of an attack of the same kind of reform. 1t
wants $4,000. more to pay clerks in the
Philadelphia mint and $4,000 more for con-
tingent expenses. For the New Orleans
mint it asks an increase of So, 1000. For the
pay Of janitors and assistant custodans
under the Treasury department an increase
of $174,00o is wanted, and for miscellaneous
purposes an increase of $4O7, $3.50.
The spirit of economy has also invaded the
War Department, and the Secretary insists
that he needs an assistant, more clerks and
larger salaries. Secretary Whitney wants
81, 600 more than usual for the support of
the navy. Secretary Lamar wants for the
salaries in his office proper 1872, 500 more than
was allowed last year. Commissioner Sparks
wants his clerks better paid, and an addition
of eleven chiefs of division at an annual eX-
Dense of S22,5O0. For protecting public
md" and to prevent frauds in entries,
