ANCIENT SEA WALLS,
Punishment That Was Inflicted For
Neglect1ng Their Repair.

Punishment That Was Inflicted For
Neglecting Their Repair.
W. II. Wheeler in his History Of the
tens OF South Lincolnshire quotes
Harrison as saying, in his preface to
Holinshed's Chronicle" that "such
as, having walls or banks near unto
the sea, do suffer the same to decay,
after convenient admonition, whereby
the water entereth and drowneth up
the country, are by certain ancient
custom unprecedented, condemned and
staked in the breach, where they re-
main forever parcel of the new wall
that is to be made upon them, as I
have heard reported. 40.
Harrison, so far as I am at present
able to make out, is the earliest au-
thority for this, and he only speaks of
it as a report
In paper by the Rev. T. G. J. Spur
rell in THE Archaeological Cantiana" re-
latinG to hartford, find the following,
which, though it is by no means proof
Of what Harrison had heard, tends to
make the statement less improbable
than it otherwise would be:
In early times IT, Roman way
crossed the marsh U::: >;::5!cl by the
tide. Afterwarl, Tie tie having adj
vanced further inland, the road was
raised, becoming a casiseway In me-
| diaeval times this bank was heighten-
ed against the tide. the road running
inside, as at present. During section
made few years ago through this
road, near Stidolph's house, l saw a
human skeleton extended across the
bank about two feet below the pres
ent surface This is, of course, a
strange situation; but, looking to the
fact that it was a tide wall, it is pos
sible that the once owner of the skele-
ton had the duty Of repairing the bank
and, having let the tide through by his
neglect, was placed in the breach, thus
helping to repair it while suffering
punishment. S. Smiles has mentioned
that such mode of dealing was a me-
d1aeval custom. However, I know not
how far the ancient graveyard extend
ed hereabout, so that the body, which
J. showed no signs Of burial, might yet
have been buried in sacred ground."-

a HEROIC BAT TIE.
The Enem3- Was the Sea, and the
Coi0rcz Troops Won.

The Enem3 Was the Sea, and the
Coiored Troops Won.
No engagement Of the civil war was
carried on with more heroism and en-
durance than that fought by the For
ty-ninth United States colored troops
after hostilit;es were over. The Maya
zine of American History contains an
account of the tussle in which the
black soldiers bore themselves so
bravely. The steamer Merrimac, load
ed with cotton, left New Orleans for
New York carrying, besides her reg
ular passengers, thirty officers and 900
eolored privates
For several days all went we'll. Then
the vessel sprung aleak, fires were
dampened and the alarm spread. It
was found that the iron supply pipe
through which the water for the con-
denser was taken from the sea was
broken, and the place Of leakage could
not be reached. The passengers were
panic stricken. One small, fat German
went about wringing his hands and
crying:
Zach, we are at the bottom of the
sea! If we gets pack to New Orleans
will dey gif me pack my monish?"
The water gained fast. The only
hope lay in keeping afoat until YES
sci could be sighted The colored
troops We're pressed into service and
proved themselves the heroes of the
occasion. A line of men was establish
ed from the hold to the deck, and buck
cts were passed as rapidly as hands
could move. On deck another line
stepped back and forth with we'll
trained military tread. The work be-
low was most exhausting The men at
the bottom could not hold their posi-
tion more than three minutes at
time. They were blinded and half
strangled by the smashing sea water
and bruised by the Jumps of coal
which dashed about.
But no one faltered, and high above
the noise rose the clear, sweet voices
OF the workers, now singing an army
song, now CHEEKY negro melody. The
music brought new hope to the hearts
of the passengers. Hour after hour
the men worked and sang, and the sea
did not gain on them.
Two days passed, and the drinking
water gave out Then they could no
longer sing, and their parched threats
We're eased only by a scanty supply
Of oranges and lemons, but still they
worked. On the third day the lights of
steamer We're seen only half a mile
away. Rockets were sent up, and
with great difficulty, on account of
her wet ammunition, a gun was fired.
To the dismay Of all, the steamer pass
ed on. Quickly the soldiers formed
line once more, and the wearisome la
Dor began again.
After sixty-five hours of bucket pass
Ing steamer was sighted which re-
sponded to the call for help, and the
waterlogged Merrimac was lowed into
harbor
The men who had sung so cheerily in
the midst Of hard labor and in the face
Of death were thoroughly exhausted,
but they had not lost their light heart
ed gayety.

Making the Northwest Passage.

Many lives have been sacrificed in
daring the arctic terrors which the
Norwegian explorer Amundsen faces,
with good prospect of success, in the
attempt to take his ship from the At
lantic into Bering strait. The max
ing of the northwest passage from
ocean to ocean was one Of the goals,
and in fact the important goal, of the
earlier race of arctic explorers. The
most famous and the most tragic at
tempt was that of 1851, which re-
suited in the loss of the expedition IN
der Sir John Franklin.
There are traditions that Spanish and
Portuguese sailors made the northwest
passage in olden times, and the Eng
lish admiral Mcclure has been cred
tied with this feat. Mcclure got
through, but he was compelled to aban-
don his ship when the voyage was half
accomplished. The northeast passage
was made by Nordenskjold in 1S7S-79,
and there will be glory for the first
voyager to take steamer through by
the northwest, although the route can
not have value for commercial pur-
poses.
The Princeton union. [volume] (Princeton, Minn.) 1876-1976, 1905-11-16

The Anglo-Cuban commercial treaty
will probably be killed when it comes
up in the Cuban senate, and so there
will be no harm done, but it is strange
that the Cuban authorities consented to
the framing of measure the ratifca-
ton of which would be inimical to the
commercial interests Of this country.
Under the Platt amendment this coun-
try has a right to protest against the
British treaty.
