CAPTURE OF THE DARIEN.
wow Colombian Government Lost
Her to the Insurgents.

New York, Nov. 13.--Advices have
been received from Colon, Colombia,
giving details Of the capture by the
insurgents of the steamer Darien, De-
longing to the government, which was
recently purchased from the Darien
Gold Mining company at Panama.
The Darien hnd been sent by the
Colombian government to take a rapid
fire gun and fair supply of rifles ana
ammunition to the forces now sta
toned at Aqua Dulce. The steamer
had orders to keep well in sight Oh
Chorrera (fifteen miles from Panan'aD,
the headquarters of the insurgeEt fore
es, on her way TO Aqua Dulce. In conf
pliance with this order 1t appears that
the captain of the Darien steamed TOO
close to land, and when In the vicinity
of Chorrera the steamer grounded at
low tide on sand bank, In sight OF
the rebel forces, who soon surrounded
her with canoes, open boats, ETC., ana
took possession without any fighting
whatever.
The rebels ON the rise of the tidt
Immediately ordered the captain to
steam to the island Of Taboga, abou
ten miles south of Panama. On ar
irving there, they sgnaled to the OF
ficer commanding the small militar!
contingent at Taboga to come o.
board. As soon as he did so he wa
made prisoner and compelled to writ
an order for the force under his CON
mand to embark, with all haste, wit
their arms. In this manner abou
thirty men and all the arms and amml
| milton at Taboga were captured. Th
: steamer subsequently sailed for Cho
rera.
I The government believes that til
captain of the Darien was in the pa
of the rebels. The Darien has sint
been trying 10 capture sailing vesse
having government troops on boar
and actually had one in tow when 81
was chased by small steamer cha
tered from the canal company.

A Tutor VINO Maintained His Dignity.
Dr.. Chalmers always had a high
sense of personal dignity. When q
young man, he was engaged as tutor in
a private family. his young lady pu-
pills resented his strictness, and the
mother foolishly took sides with her
daughters. In petty spite when com
pany was invited to the house young
Chalmers was shut out from the table,
and dinner was sent to his room.
He made NO protest against the
treatment, but when It was attempted
again he told the servant he had order
ed dinner at neIghborIng town and
should need nothing. When this had
been done a few times. an explosion
came. The master Of the house called
Chalmers to account for insulting his
family. Chalmers replied that he had
been insultcd by banIBhment from the
table. The young teacher conquered
and ever after held his place as one OF
the family at all social gatherings.
