FITTING FINALE.
Romance Wrecked on the Rocks of

From the Pensacola (FIa) Commercial
During the terrible storms that swept
the length and breadth of the American
Mediterranean in October last, the steam
ship Excelsior, bound from New York for
New Orleans hailed in mid-gulf what had
been the tbreemasted schooner Scotia, of
Philadelphia. The latter, bound from
Mobile to Caibarien, with cargo of
lumber, had encountered a most terrific
gale, and when the steamer hove in sight
her main and miZzen maSts had gone by
the board, or been cut away, the deck load
had long since been scattered far
and wide over the stormy waste, the
We sci was full of water, and her decks
were well awash. The steamer came
close alongside and took off the crew, who
were glad enough TO avail themselves of
this chance for a rescue from what seem d
certain death if they remained. Then, and
only at the mo fearful sol ci-
tatiOn of the schooner's mater, Can't.
Shearer, was the latter's wife, with his little
soa, prevailed upon to out the wreck and

port of destination, even in the crippled
condition of his vessel, and, having told his
purpose to his two officers, the latter had
agreed to stay by him. The crew were
given their choice of going or remaining
and, as stated, they chose TO go. This was
on Oct. -. The arrival of the steamer at
New Orleans, with all safe, was announced
a day or two later.

trusty officers set about working the vessel.

OMAHA, March 13-John E. Fitzgerald,
the president of the Irish National Leage of
America, has spent life Of romance and ad-
venture, with as many changes in it as in
that of an Arabian Night hero: but little
is known by the general public in regard to
him. This arises from his aversion to news

was on Long Island farm, and his wages
were s. month About the time he reached
his majority, in 1850 he had actively entered
into the work of forming, with others, the
Fenian society, whose aim was the over
throw, by military force, of English domi-
nation in Ireland. This association was the
natural outgrowth of the famine of 1867,
and the abortive struggle for independence
