younger member
old diver began :
"Few. of our officers on duty off
Charleston in 186—, willforget when
the news came out to the wooden
fleet that a monitor had been partial
ly disabled, and that until something
could be done her situation was ex
tretnely critical. She lay quite near
the batteries, and, as though divining
her danger, their guns were plunging
their shot and shell against her with
the fiercest energy.
"It wa.s soon known that a diver
would be called into requisition to do
the work under water, while the
guns of Sumter fade fair to demolish
the whole ship in a few hours.
"Being the mast experienced of
the diving corps on duty at that time,,
the admiral sent for me without de
lay, and,,laying the difficulty before
►me, asked if I would undertake the
job. By a few judiciously vut ques
tions I was soon placed in possession
of ail the facts, the work to be done,
-1 the results to be expected from
BLICLNISM.
"The propeller of the vessel had
been fouled by some of the numerous
obstructions set afloat by the enemy,
and not wishing to endanger 'any
other vessel in the same manner, the
admiral desired to send me alongside
in a steam picket 1-,oat, with my best
diving gear, and try to unite a sue
cessfu I descent.
In due time we r that is, myself and
four more whom I could trust under
all peril, arrived at the place of op
erations. And now, before going
further with my story, let me try to
give an idea of the situation and its
cause. A vessel had tieen sent to
mednnoiter, and, if necessary, to fire
on the batteries to ascertain their force
and strength.
"Proceeding until within a few
hundred yards of Sumter, she had
unconsciously drifted too close to the
line of obstructions defending the en
trance to the harbor, and, in turning
to come out, her propeller, as I said
before, had become entangled in '
ropes and chains. All efforts to re
lieve the ship from her perilous posi
tion hail failed, heave the call for a
diver.' , Immediately on perceiving
the state of affairs, no hard task, the
enemy had opened a fearful tire from
all guns within range on the single
craft, and seemed bent on her des
truction before assistance reach
ter.
"The shot fell fast and furious
against the iron of her turret and side
armor, while the water on all sides
fairly boiled surface.e frequent shot
striking its fa It seemed a
veritable iron hail.
'I'M nor little picket boat approach
ed the scene of. conflict the firing sud
denly ceased, and we were fortunate
enough to get 'below with the appa
ratus before the,_storm again burst
over the trembling, shiP. The cause
of this apparent kindness was made
known to us the following day by a
deserter from Fort Sumter.
"As the picket steamer approached
the monitor, the enemy imagined
that a mmage from the Yankee
commander :was about to be receiv
ed, looking,. to an armistice or sur
render, soon:lslackened fire. After
waiting a feirmoinents, and the ex

and the fshower of ahot and shell

" In a short' time I saw how mat

where, if the ship could be kept in
one position, no shot could reach me.
Carefully instructing my men as to
their duties; gat length got my Lad

should the wind change or rise dur

through one of, the ports, I secured

my kit of tools, hammer, saw, chis
els, etc., to the strong belt attached
for that purpose, began my slow de

' , Fortunately, the water was quite
clear and free from thud, so I had no
itikeeing everything with
atrfectdistitictness. Uradually near
mg
.the bottom, for the depth of wa
ter exceeded the draught of veisels of
less than lour feet, I became aware of
a strong current setting inci' against
the ship, which, while lessening the
fear of being swept out of teach of
my ladder, rendered, worPitik inure
ditticult. As usual, my progress was
attended by numbers of curious fish,
and as I neared the bottom one or two
'large fellows passed close by, but
seemed intent on other prey, leaving
tae in peace.
•" "Once or twice I was somewhat
startled by o heavy splash overhead,
and a dull Mild, followed by the rap
id descent of a shot or shell within
easy view ; and as It would settle in
to the soft, oozy bottom, a tiny cloud
of mud would for a moment obscure
it from view. I felt a constant fear
from these oft recurring clouds, lest
Form of them might be the splutter
lueuze of an unexploded shell.
"Although an old hand at the dly
big business, It had never before been
my fortune to operate in action, so I
was not a little anxious, ns you may
to thr affect of a shell ex
in. I was not

"The screw stopped as suddenly as
,t had started, and somehow I strug
gled to my feet again. Seeing but if'
Jew more strokes were needed hi fin
ish my Job, I soon had the good old
ship in lighting trim again, so far at
least as her propeller was concerned.
"Being now at liberty toreturn, I
cautiously retraced my steps to where
the ladder hung idly swinging to and
fro hi', the water, and was about to
tnoudt to the - surface, when with a
crash and a roar.of ten thousand shots
a big shellfell apparently right over
illy head, and after what seemed but
the fraction of a second settled, - as I '
thought, directly upon me. Passing'
but a few feet distant, it had scarcely '
reached the bottom when the 'very'
earth and sea seemed shattered' to
atoms.
"The shell had exploded aLtnost
beside me ! By, some means!. the',
hooks provided in the breast Of. my
armor had become fastened ton'freng
of my ladder, else this tale had never
been told. Stunned and racked,' as it
was, the instinct of self-preservation
urged me to attempt the ascent of my
only road to safety the ladder, When
to my horror the current began sway
ing me back and forth in such aman
ner that I found it impossible to do
aught but hold on and trust fil the
chapter of accidents for relief.
"In an instant after I becalm . aws re
of the current, a dull,, regular beat,
united to a seeming tremor ef the
ship, Convinced me that the ship was
under way and probab ly steaming
out to the fleet. A glimpse 'lit the
bottom assured me of this, as ryould
plainly see it gliding past until the
shoal deepened, and - nothing could be
seen underneath me but water';, Im
agine my situation, you younters,
who think you have seen 4nger,
towed to sea under a nionitort
" The motion rapidly grew more
violent, and had it not been fur the
hooks 1 have spoken of, death would
have been inevitable, for my strength
would not have enabled me to retain
my holiton the ladder, and 1 should
have drowned, my body weighed
down by armor beyond,recovery- .7-
" All of this time, in reality min
utes, but seemingly hours i ' - inny faith
ful men Within the turret chamber
had not ceased to give me a plentiful
supply of air, so my only danger lay
in being swept away. After *hat
seemed miles of ground pallid over,
and hours of time, the beat of thedn
gine grew gradually slower, and then
stopped; and no sooner did I feel the
pressure of the current relax than I
prepared to make the hest of my way
to the surfaee.
"i remetimer no more. A deadly
faint Betted me, and for hours I lay
without life, vibrating between this
world and the one beyond. Iteturn-,
ing senses-levealed my four men
around me, on the ward-room table
doing their utmost in my behalf, and
only gave way to the surgeon when a'
heavy groan and slowly opening eyes
told them my life was safe.
"1 speedily recovered and for tne
first time learned the details of my
great peril and marvellous escape.
"Inirnediately on the strain being
taken off the propeller by the chains
being cut,rthe engine gave the quick
4 stfr_de
partial t volution which I have men
tioned; d the engineer as in duty
bound, - , reported that the
disability to' the machinery being re
moved he was ready to go ahead at
any moment. . .
'lt was but a few minutes After
this that the tide began to slow,
causing the tide that I have spoken
of, and the devoted vessel bado'fair
to be again drifted among the dread
ed obstructions and still nearer to
Sumter, whose guns - never ceased
their roar all this time.
"Captaiti —, to prevent this
threatened catastrophe, and, feeling
certain that I was clear of danger from
the propeller, determined to go ahead
a short distance to clear all danger
from the obstructions, and then to
await my return to the suttees be
fore proceeding proceeding farther.
"Carefully watching the air-pipe
leadlng - overhead, the engines were
started slowly, and as the ship gathed
ed headway, and the pipe remained
without 'visible strain, it was conclud
ed that my ascent had begun as in
truth was the:fact pso instead oftsnn
inglo atter steaming a short distant*
the ship was. headed for the fleet and
only came to anchor when within hail
of, the flagship. The rest I have told
you.
"As one mutt of that day's work, I
was sent home on the sick list, and
from thitt day to this, young man,"
turning to Inc as bespoke, "I have
never been Inside?' diver's dress, and
never intend to be again."
As the old man approached the con
elusion, he grew quite excited, as in
deed had his listeners, and as the
tones of his yoke died away the
wind outside gathering !resit fury, m
seeed to shake the old'house to its
very foundation.
THZ CHILDREN OF THE CIRCUS
Many of our readers. we fancy,
have often- seen the admired and
pretty children whose graceful per
formai:km) in the circus rings, are al
ways! to very many people, by 'far
themost pleasing portion of the en
tertainments. There is, however, a
popularlbelief that these children are
cruelly treated to make theta learn
the various tricks, which some sup
pose to be hurtful to the infant 'mine.
And this couttliferation, of course, de
tracts much from the pleasure that
tender-hearted people would other
wise feel in witimislng the perform

waking hours—if only he gets some
place where he can do it and not hurt

to accomplish their feats in the easy

and the world wide propagation of

masters of the art, thoroughly broke '
up the old plan many years ago, both
with professional equestrians and
with horse lovers generally. It hay

tive than curses. The experiment
was tried—need it hardly; be said
with complete success—and the noble
horse having been rescued from the
taw of the lash, the emancipation of
the children from the same dreaded
monitor_ fly follows.
Theta formers of the present,
day tell, h ver some fearful stories
of their early apprenticeship under
the old system.
James M. Nixon, a well-known
circus manager, was apprenticed to
old Turner, one of the old fashioned.
rough school of managers, and father
of Napoleon B. Turner, and other
children who became distinguished .
in their profession. Nixon says he
was seldom spoken to without an oath
and a blow, and that the little lash of
the heavy wagon whip cracked about
his ears all day, from the time it woke
rhiin from his sleep in the all-too-ear
ly morning to the hour it sent him I
tinkling mid revengeful to his wretch- 1
ell bunk at night. William Dutton,
lately playint the Fourteenth street)
circus, Newyork, who learned the
husitieres with Stokes, another Of the
tyrant. managers, tells the same sto
ry—nothing Lilt blows, oaths and
kicks, from morning till night, to
which was added no inconsiderable
amount of wholesometitarvation.
l'he children of the ring are put
tutu training as soon us they can fair,:
ly walk, though in these days it is
pot. usual to see a boy of less than
five or six years old „introduced in
public in the acrobatic besitiess. In
the case of equestrians hoOever, it is
different some ambitious riders
bringing_ their offspring before the
public much younger than this.
For instance, young Alexander,
the son of Melville, the Australian,
has•ridden In an net with his father
since he *as twenty months old, and
he has never yet met with an acci
dent inure serious than happens to
any boy who-"stubs his toe." ..,
The first acts in which the lit
tle ones are allowed to appear before
an audience are what are technically
knoWn as acrobatic, - or posturing
seenes. Those who watch these per
formances carefelly will notice that
the youngest ones of the party have
very little to do. save to stand In ifs
proper position and reserve an
stone' toss from the senior member
of ,the.group, which toss or throw
sametimeelooke as if Very carelessly
administered. but which is in reality
done with the greatt core and gen-,
tiene4s. In fact, the Modern system'
of teaching the business by emula
tion, in.steati of by threats and blows,
'Makes the youngsters so ambitious
that ttieye.re always begging to be
taught new feats, arid nine out of ten
of the trifling falls they get in the
ring are brought ott by the attempt
to accomplish more than they are at
' the' time capable of achieving. The
-love of applause is inborn with us
ali,. and jealousy sometim soes ran
kles -in the baby bosoms of these
spangled little ones that they would,
if unchecked in their mad career, of
ten break their tiny pecks in trying
to outdo each other. To many an
ambitious youngster the greatest
possible known punishment is being
debarred the privilege of appearing
with his exultant companions in
starred and tinseled finery, and ex
hibiting his hard earned accomplish
ments to the applauding multitude.
Most of the childrenin the profession
at present are the offspring of per
formers, who are not afraid to have
them taught the bu
sines. ; : ormeriv

dren were taken as circusapprentices
from almshouses or from degraded
parents, in whom the love of rum
had extinguished all sparks of paren
tal: atlealon, and who would be con
soled by a few dollars for the loss of
their too often unwelcome urchins.
These unfortunate youngsters were,
for the most part, adopted by irre
sponsible men,who only toofrequent
ly instead of properly teaching theta
the profiNsion, would discard them
as soon as they outgrew the baby
business, and leave them Io shift for
the.uiselvei, while they sought youn
ger victims. Children adopted out
In this manner by greedy and selfish
poor masters, werealmost invariably
treated- In the most brutal manner,
and seldom failed to run away from
their masters as soon as sufficient in
telligence, and knowledge of the
world was obtained. Apprentices of
this kind are seldom taken.
ilrfany.of the younger inemhers of
the trade at the presen:-ti me are chit
dren of deceased 'riders and
igym
nasts, who have died happy ti the
knowledge that the friends who have
adopted their kids wilt treat them as
' kindly and teach them their business
,Just as thoroughly as though the pa
rent was present overlooking the
lessons of the flesh. Who that has
read Dickens' "Hard Times'? wilt
forget the kindly offers of the Mans
ger bleary and the women of his
horse-riding troupe to adopt anti
teach the business tb little Sissy Jape
whose father, the whilom clown of
the establishment, had, in a lit of
despondency, run away from her.
And who will forget how these rid
ing and tumbling people, so heartily
despised by Mr. Gradgrind, the man
of "fact, air, fact," afterwards did
that same hard man a most essential
service by concealing his felon sou
and running him out of the country,
being• moved by no hope or promise
of steward, but only by their simple
gralltude.to the man, who, despite
hiki harshness to thew, had yet been
kind to littliCecila, who had, when
a very baby, been one of themselves.
In gymnastics, the youngsters are
first taught posturing and the danc
ing positions, then comes what is
technically known as the split, which
consists in spreading the feet apart
till the legs are at exact angles with
the upright body, a feat which any
lithesome lad or lass six years or less
can do almost Without practice; next
they are taught bending, w bieb means
to throw the head back as far as pus
bible toward the heels; this being
learned, a grown person places his
hand under the back of the youngster
when a slight toss - ---by throwing the
feet over the head—transforms the
"bend" into a "somersault." When
the child has mastered the backward
"somersault" the hardest of his edu
cation as a " tumbler" is over. The
other feats come easy by practicv--
"vaulting," "battoute leaps, I"liand
springs,' "cart-wheels," and the like
, are learned in a few months.
If the young person, either male or
female, hi to learn the tight-rope bu
siness, he or she Is not, as one might
suppose, exercised on a low rope
stretched near the ground. On the
contrary, the pupil is placed at once
sits a rope at as great an elevation, as
is required In the regular performan
ces, and from the very first learn the
,business as it must afterwards be per
forined. There are two reasons for
:this—first, it accustoms the novice at
once to the height; and second,„ it
gives space to the employment of the
.."balance-pole," a long bar of twelve
to twenty feet in length-; and which,
v i gikalp fitteatrekhed low, would
do not becOme timid byeasonoftt
received in the falls which at firstare
unavoidable, many men are station
ed on either side of the rope, into
whose ever ready! arms the young ,-
ster falls, and so never comes to se
rious grief, however freqUent are the
tumbles.
When children first essay to ride
alone, a heavy leather belt is buckled
round the waist ; from this belt a long
and strong cord passes through a ring
in the top of the" pad" or "surcingle,"
and the free encris held in ,the hand
of the "ring master". If, being thus
protected. young master loses his feet
an instantaneous pull upon the cord
draws him flat down on the back of
the horse, and by no stretch of infan
tile ingenuity out he get under the
animal's heel.
The apprentices frequently learn to
ride in the "pony act," in which the
tiny pattern of a man, dressed as a
jockey or a courier, urges-on his steed
with his shrill cries amt - many way
ings of his little cap. This act is al
ways ridden on two ponies, and the
young rider wilt contrive to slip and
fall between his minature steeds,
while a thrill of horror pervades the
crowd, who applaud most lustily,
when, the next minute, the plucky
little fellow regains his feet, picks up
the reins and drives en faster than
ever. The compassionate audience
need not waste their sympathies,
however; this fall is merely one of
the "tricks of the trade," introduced
simply for "effect," and the cord, he
fore described, would not let the. ri
der fall if he wanted to. On the
whole, the improvement in the mato
ner of training children for this sort
of life is most marked and :commen
dable.
It is not a business to which every
parent would care to bring his little ,
ones ; but, after all, "people must he
amused," and every one of these cir
cus children is a thousand times bet
ter off in having an honest, though
perhaps humble, trade than are the
thousands of miserable little waifs
that swarm in our streets and alleys,
whose present condition is utter pov
erty, and whose surest expectation of
it rise in life is grounded upon hopes
of- a future of successful and unde
tected thievery.
,One word more—many persons
'suppose that "circus-riders" are inva
riably and inevitably given to drun
kenness and dissipation. Never was
there a more unjust aspersion—there
are black sheep every where, but there
is quite as large proportion of true,
honest wives, kindly, loving moths
ers and faithful husbands in this as in
any other line of life—their misfor
tunes in this regard are the same as
those of the theatrics' profession, viz:
that, owing to their public lives,
every scandal in their ranks is known
and magnified, while people in quiet
er walks of life i nsay, perhaps, be
ten times more 'lcentious, akd ,yet
not one-tenth as mitorious:
The artist who hr t to backs fiery
horse at night, or do a trapeze per
formance at a height so great that a
fall from his dizzy perchwould be
almost certain death, is n ot likely to
shake his nerve, or loosen his grip,
by the use of intoxicating liquors, so
trunk are few instances
.of habitual
drunkenness among this class of
srofisslooals.
