a small picco of board to navlratc with.
From being repeatedly capsized he lost all

happened during tho first forty-eight hours.

ono man and ono woman died, and wero
thrown overboard. The rest of tho men and
ono lady becamo insane from thirst and hun

rnato and two young women, Miss Rosa
Howard and Miss Annlo Norton. They
knew on tho night of tho 8th that they wero
near a port, from tho feeble glimmering of
tho ship's lantern, which Is allowed to dis-.
graco this lighthouse; but tho ladies wero
nearly insensible. Fortunately a slight rain
camo on at dark, and Mr. Gofdic wrung a
small quantity of water Into their mouths,
obtained by spreading a small piece of petti,
coat on tho after thwarts. This .greatly
revived them and reopened their stlflenod
Jaws. They were silting in the bottom of
the boat qnielly.hands clasped on tho knees,
when tho boat entered tho breakers, ho
steering with tho picco of board. The boat
Easscd through two breakers successfully,

that Ooldlo's. feet touched bottom at once.
lie reached shoro quickly, shouted to his
companions and went into tho serf as far as
the undertow would permit, but neither saw
nor heard them again. They, undoubtedly,
in their enfeebled condition, lor six dtys
without food or water, other than ono small
flsh, and the rain of Monday evening, almost
without clothing, exposed to an almost trop
ical sun, were drowned at once. Tlicy could
not make tho one small effort that would
have crowned their heroic endnranco with
success. Tho body of Miss Annie Norton
(printed Addio in the list of passengers of
tho Savannah aVeics) was found, and buried
next morning abovo hlgh-watcr mark. Sho
was from Long Island. The placo of burial
is well known, should her relatives desiro to
regain tho body or transfer it to tho Catholic
ccmtery hero. Miss Rosa Howard's body
(there is no Rosa Howard, but Rosa Bum's,
in the same list) was found tUo same even
ing by two fishermen; but their cowardly
dread would not permit them to touch It.
It was again seen by a little boy, who was
unablo to move It out of tho serf. I have of
fercd rewards and sent expeditions in search
of It, thus far without success, and shall Bend
some of my boatmen again at low water to

Tho courage, patience, obedience of direc
tions, heroic, quiet endurance of thirst and
hunger and of an almost tropical sun, of all
tho ladies, is spoken pf by Mr. Qoldio as
being beyond praise) but Miss Howard (who
had but a chemise, with her name on its
front,) and Miss Norton, (who had, in addi
tion to mat garment, n sort ot worsted sack,
trimmed with dark trimininc. made to bo
worn with a belt,) who survived tho rest of
mo passengers, were bravo, gentle, lady-like,
uncomplaining, able to obey directions, dc
Birous of assisting themselves and others to
tho utmost they wero heroines. That they
should havo failed at tho last moment, after
Buch heroic struggles, is sad to think of.
They needed but tho steel like muscles of tho
officers to have secured success. Miss Nor
ton was about 20 years of age, quite tall.wilh
dark hair. MissJ nonard, on the contrary,
was not abot e fit o feet one and a half or two
inches, and 1G or 17 years of age; both ro
iqarkably lino looking womeni the hair of
the latter was also dark. The last-named
lady was from tho city of New York.

In addition. I think it duo to Mr. Qoldio to

My boatmen found tho remains this after
noon, ibo sharks, shown by tho marks of
tho teeth on tho bones, had destroyed most
of tho body. It was that of a rather small
female; a nearly cntiro foot was delicately
and beautifully formed, and had always been
encased inn light shoo. I buried tho remains

on tho 12th of September. Ac
cording to official accounts, thirteen persons
wero killed, and as many wounded, and a
great number of houses destroj cd. .
A I'ort-au.l'rinco correspondent, writing
of the catastrophe, says:
As to tho couscqucnccs, thoy nro fearful,
and really cry painfully distressing to cry
many. 1 bo report announced tho explosion
of the powder magazines or tho "ritate,"

sand kegs of gunpowder, with a countless

The Indian Trouble Another War
on nana.
Tho Topcka Btcord ot the 16th says:
Col. Veal camo from tho West lost night.
Ho reports that the Indians aro so troublo
lomo on the plains that ho dare not risk his
train, and turned it back. Tho wife and
family of Jesso Crane, tho sutler at Fort
Lamed, came In jestcrday also. They left
on account ot danger. (Jen. Sherman was
at Fort Riley j estcrday, and will pass East
to-day. Ho is hurrying troops westward.
Since the Qeneral and Mr. Crano's family
left Fort Lamed, news has been brought in
that the Indians had robbed tho sutler's store.
,We also learn that tho overland station at
Chalk HIuus has been burned. Tort Lamod
has probably gone with tho sutler's store.
Tbo Denver (Kansas) A'cws of tho 8th sas:
There is general alarm, and there aro fears
of tho most serious consequences from this
outbreak.
Editors News: Tho Indian excitement yet
continues. It appears that CoL Alexander
and tho citizens, a few da)s ago, drote them
into tho mountains, but yesterday they re
turned and resumed their blamlv ileeda nt
murder, stealing, and shooting down tho
cattle.
Settlers nro coming to this place, and
others aro fortifying at homo. Up to this
timo thrco men have been killed, and several
missing. If ws do not gcthclpimmcdiatcly,
no ono can forcsco the end. All tho fine
crops of this valley will fall into tbelr hands,
with tho stock and money.
Baoito, Urrxu Hcrno, Oct. S.
Majob D. C. Oases i Dear Sir I find my.
self here, surrounded by Indians. They arc
killing people and taking horses. They had
a fight with the soldiers and citizens, and
took the stock from them. They camo to
Hufano and killed two men, and took all the
horses for twelve miles up tho creek. The
latest report is that they havo taken tho
stock from Sain Hicklia's and killed one
man. The soldiers and citizens are on tho
trail, but will not overtake them. Tho Xemt
predicts a lonir and serious Indian war. and
noticed the anxiety tho Indians have dis
played for a j cor past to purchaso fire-arms
and ammunition for them at most extrava
gant rates. Iiy this means the Indians here
secured quite a stock of tho desired arms.
At tho recent disturbance of tho annuities
inlhcMiddlo Tork, Colorado, ono of their

The hnMnol Nniket.
Tho Elmilard says that tho Chassepot
needle-gun has already been Bcrvcd out to
the battalion of Chasseurs of tho Oordo Im
pcrialo quartered at Vlnccnncs. The follow
ing account of this weapon is from an able
paper on breech-loaders, published by M.
Xavicr Raxmond, in a late number of the
Revue des Deux ilondet:
"As regards tho rapidity of fjre, nhich ap
pears now-a-days to bo the principal desidera
tum, a man with a lot of loose cartridges bo
side bim can firo the Chassepot musket 12
times in one minute; but that rato tho most
skillful and robust soldier cannot keep up
beyond about 30 rounds; past that, tho firo
perceptibly slackens. The same thing occurs
with tho Prussian needle-gun after the 25th
round. Tho causo Is purely rthvslcal i. e.
the fatigue of thi man, whoso left arm has.
oucn io finnnort nnalileil tho wlinln weftrht tT
i tuc weapon, ii, insicau oi Having looso car
tridges by the soldier's side, ho has to tako
them out of his pouch, the rato of firing de
clines to six rounds per minute; but it aver
ages Bcvcn or eight rounds per minute if tho
man is allowed to tako his cartridges from
tho right-hand pocket of his trowscrs.
"Tho accuracy of tho weapon has been as
certained by making the men fire at targets
2 metres high by 2 in breadth at a rango of
600 metres, using a rest for the rifle. At that
rango a great many men, firing 100 rounds,
lodged 100 bullets in the target. Tho point
blank rango of tho Chassepot musket is fixed
at 500 metres, the cxtremo range exceeds
1,000 metres, and tho weapon requires no
cleaning beforo 250 rounds have been fired;
1,000 and 1,200 shots havo been fired with
tho samo musket without its sustaining any
damage. The Chassepot musket may, there
fore, sustain x cry advantageously a competi
tion with tho needle gun. Its superiority
arises chiefly from the more perfect closing
of tho breech, which is complete, whilo it is
very defective in tho zundnailctgcwchr. All
tho gases developed by tho ignition of tho
charges aro utilized to propel tho bullet,
which adds to its rango and penetrating
power, whilo the perfect combustion of the
fiowdcr naturally obxiatcs the necessity of
requcnt cleaning, which the Prussian weapon
cannot do without."
UrvcnAi. Siikiiman, when about to leave
St. Louis on his trip to tho mountains, in
answer to his servant's question as to his
baggago said, " Put mo up a shirt I"
At ono of tho posts on tho road, an ill
mannered fcllow.awcalthy contractor.pushcd
into the private quarters, whero tho (Jencral

commanding o Dicer introducing him at once,
which, being done, ho further interrupted tho
conversation:
" Wall, (iln'ral, thought I'd corao up and
shako hands withxou; heerd ou was pass
ing threu."
Sherman quietly looked at the man, who
continued us follows:
"I wont to tell j ou, Uin'ral, that It's my
opinion ou oughtcr station a company of
cavalry here" went on tho infatuated man.
The Ucueral did not move his ejes from
him; they began to twinkle.
"This jar's an important post, xcr see.
You don't know it, mayhap, but x ou ro-aiy
oughtcr hate cavalry here; and 1 kin sell
'em hay and forage cheaper than any man
around."
The man said no more, for in his quick,
nervous way, Sherman broke out:
" You'd better go to ploughing, sir I

A Chnrlciton Opinion Abont the
Amendment.
Thoro Is no Tact moro patent than that
Congress avow6d publicly upon tho record
that tho wholo object of tho lata war was tho
preservation of tho Union and of the States
under Iho Constitution.
If these commonwealths aro States, it fa
Elain that they cannot, without their consent,
o deprived of their cqnal suffrage in tho
Senate, and yet they aro still excluded from
all representation, whilo held to be States,
authorized to pass upon an amendment to
tho Constitution.
For these propositions and this new theorv
of conditions thcro is no warrant in the (inn.
stltution itself. To admit that a dominant
party can destroy or creato States, can hold
them as provinces for one mimosa, and as
sovereignties for another, can restrict or deny
tui-ir representation unless upon tne adop
tion of certain laws proposed by itself, is in
deed to declare a doctrine, "at war with every
principle of tho Ooxcmment and with tho
very cxistenco of frco institutions."
The amendment, therefore, has been well
characterized as simply a devico to keep up
disquiet and disunion.
Against all constitutional precedent, and
without guarantee, tho amendment is liable
also to the gravest objections in referenco to
its specific provisions. Its adoption by theso
States would be an act of futito dishonor.
Cliarkitoim Courier.
Tut radicals foully abuse President John
son on account of his policy of restoration,
but not moro foully than they abused Presi
dent Lincoln on account of the samo policy.
If this Is consolatory, President Johnson is
consoled.
Tho notorious manifesto of Wado and
Davis was levelled at Mr. Lincoln simply as
tho advocato of tho policy which Mr. John
son is executing. This our readers will re
member. And surely tho manifesto was
abusivo enough. It was as abusive as very
eminent masters of abuse could make it.
"Praidcnl Lincoln," it declared, "is guilty
of personal ami it ion, ezeeutiie usurpation,
and military tyiannv Heisgutlty of per
jury tn violating the Constitution he has
solemnly uom to support." And so forth.
About the same timo Wendell Phillips, in a
public letter, as many of our readers will
also remember, referred to Mr. Lincoln as
"the elate hound of Illinois." And tho rest
of the radical pack opened on him In tho
like style.
So they served President Lincoln 4r ad
vocating tho policy of restoration. Wo do
not sco that they nro serving President John
son any worso lor executing It, though tho
executor, no donbt, is moro responsible than
me advocate, iney ougut to serve mm
worse, but they do not Far bo it from us,
however, to reproach them with slackness in
this respect, llicy doubtless would servo
him worso If they knew how. Louisville
