rmerly chief officer or the
ship, Erie the Med. To a
reporter he told the follow-
. story: The Erie the Bed
ra a fiiw iitw ship, belonging to Bath,
Maine. In June last she left New
York, bound to Melbourne, laden with
a large i cargo of general merchandise
and a quantity- ot goods destined for
the Melbourne Exhibition. She prose.
- cnted her royage without any occur,
re 1X38 worthy of note happening. Cap-
tainDoano wa an experienced navigator
and - had made frequent voyages to
Australian ports. On the night of the
I6th. of September Cape Otway light
wt sighlod , fcud every one on board
waa confident that the voyage would
- soon be at au end, and were looking tor.
ward to be at Melbourne on the mor.
row. The light breeze which prevailed
waa just sufficient to give the chip
headway. At midnight the second
officer called the Captain on deck, and
reported that a heavy fi had settled
over tlie land, which was scarcely vis
! ible. Orders were given about 1:30
A.M. to wear ship, but there was not
ufficient wind to accomplish the maneu

THE PERILOUS POSITION
They were iu. A long narrow ridge ot
- cruel rocks runs out some tew miles
frota the cape. It was between this
ridge and thi high, precipitous coast
that the vessel lay, slowly drifting to
. her doom. The only passengers were a
centleman named Gould and his n ire.
"They had been married at Hath but a
few weeks before toe vessel's departure
- from New York. Mrs. Gould had de
.. 2 -- 3 j i i . . i
veloped incipient consumption, and by
the advice of the doctors had underta
ken a tea voyage with a view to com.
bat the dire malady. The young couple
had enjoyed themselves during the trip,
and were eagerly locking forward to
the termination ot the voyase. The
Teasel was now rapidly drifting to de
- e traction and no power on earth could
avert her breaking on the reef. Captain
Doane and his officers stood on the poop,
giving orders to the crew to get the
' boats out. Two of them were Iauiiched
bat the current carried them amongst
the breakers, where they were immedi
ately smashed to pieces. At 3 a. m.,
fust as daylight broke, the ill-fated ship
with one bound struck upon the reef. '
The shock took si: of the crew who"
were clustered on the forecastle head,
right off their feet, and a succeeding sea
weeping oyer the ship carried them
with it. Mr. and Mrs. Gould were
. with the survivors on the poop. With
tearful countenances and looks of horror
- they saw their end approaching. The
Captain exhorted them to allow htm to
have ibetri lashed to a spar, but either
through fear, or a hope of beirfg saved
by some other method, they , steadily
- refused. . The f hip was now grinding
. and crashing amongst the breakers
. The sharp rocks was playing havoc
with the strong timbers, and the huge
waves rolling in shere would lilt her
gain and again only to briDg her nearer
- to destruction. Blue lights and rockets
were burced, but the. light-keepers state
that owing to the heavy tog they sever
- eaw them. Morning came at .art, the
breeze had freshened to a gale, but

One or nuKMUt' Stories.
1 Dumas Pere once made over a play
of a certain M. Gaillardet for Harrel,
the great theatrical manager. A quar
rel ensued, culminating iu a duel be
tween Dumas and Gaillaidet which
Dumas relates irr his - best manner.
One or two touches in the narration are
intensely characteristic He begins by
saying that as he started for the place
of combat, Bonnaire, a friend ot his,
came up to hira with an album in his
hand, "Ah !" he said Myon are eomg
out. Are you in a hurry ?"
"Why do you ask ?"
'Because, if you are not, I should
like you so much to write something iu
this album.'
"Well, leave it in my room, and
when T come back I will write some
thing in it."
"You can't now ?"
"No, I am in a hurry to keep an ap
pointment, and would not be late for
any consideration."
"Where are you going?"
"To fight a duel with Gaillardet "
"Oh theu please write something
now. Think how delightfnl it would
be fbr my wife to possess the last lines
you ever wrote."
"Ah !" said Dumas, "yon are right. I
will not deny Mme. Bonnaire that plea
sure,' and so saying he 'went back and
wrote a few lines in the album.
Then when they were on the ground,
Bixio, a friend of Dumas, wlro was a
ductnr, said to him: "Shall yon hit
him ?"
"I dot:t know," said Dumas.
"Try lo."
"I shall certainly try; but do you
dislike him." j
"Not at all, I don't know him."
"Then, why so anxious?" .
"Well, have you read Merimee's
'Etruscan Vase ?"
"Yea."
"Then don't you remember that he
says every man killed by a bullet turns
round before he drops? I want to see if
it's true ?"
He had no opportunity of seeing on
this occasion, tor the duel was fortnu.
ately harmless; but the peudant of this
story is that Bixie himself was shot
some years afterward at a Paris barri
cade shot to deatlf and as he fell,
turned, he cried "Ah, one does turn
then!"

The Sun has a sensational editorial
on the reliability of a democratic ma
jority in congress. It places no depen
dence on any democratic majority in
the next senate, and significantly adds:
"As unstable as water, they shall not
excel in any real controversy." It adds:
"Southern r democrats who traded j
away Tilden, make up the chief strength ,
of the democratic party in the senate. 1
and they will ira4 away their souls,
it need be for the smiles of the exec
ntive.": ; . J
"Says the Sun, further r
"Men who have oiice been traitors to
their country and have never repented,
may by possibility, if temptation is very
great, betray their party."
It thinks Mr. ; Garfield need not be
concerned about meeting any oj position
in the senate. - V,
The injuries' sustained by the Driver
family -by being thrown from a hand-car j
near Roseburg, last week were extreme-1
ly severe. The hand -car was on the i
down grade and going mt a rapid rate, j
when a hog sprang trona the bushes j
near by and attempting to cross the
track iitront'oftbe'ear.'''.,':;The- car ;
struck the hog, threw it to one side, and
then jumped off. t When the car struck
the hog all were violently hurled to
the ground. 4Mra. Driver was literally ;
scalped, the scalp being turned back
from the torehecd an inch or two. She
also sustained two cuts in the face (one
on each cheek) reaching to the bone.
The doctor says she will recover, bnt i
tearful that the injuries sustained will
continue to affect her brain. ' Mr, Driv.
