and everything seemed TO run smoothly.
Soon the captain, whose name could rot be

unknown cause, and took his spite out On
the cook. Garvey was terribly abused and
maltrcated. The captain and crew COM
pianed that the food was not properly
cooked, and whatever went wrong, the
b.ame OF IT " rs laid upon the unfortunate
cook. He was cursed and beaten on every
occasion. No one synlpathfzed with him,
for all the crew sided with the captain.
Garvey was helpless and terrori2cd.
He feared for lis life and yearped to make
his escape. Early last FRIDAY morning
while the boat was a few miles below this
city, the captain and cook became involved
in quarrel.
A fight ensued between the two and

to history record of the severest defeat

'Jackson's name stands next to Jefferson's

Jefferson, Jackson was a lover of sim

his great prototype. Jefferson was cOurtly
and polished; Jackson was rough and ready.
jefferson was a .diplomatist; Jackson
was a fighter. In everything except lofty
purposes they were dissmilar.
His hatred of the British was inspired
early in life. When but boy, during the
revolutionary war, he was taken prisoner
by the British. An officer commanded
young Jackson to clean his boots, which
Andrew not only refused to do, but, hay-
