CAPTAIN 3I I DANIELS.
The hero of this remarkable ad
venture is a modest. unassuming
man, apparently about thirty-seven
years of age. His face is a charac
teristic American one, a black beard
and mustache giving him the ap
pearance - of a military man. In
conversation he is open. frank and
concise. and (luring the interview
there were every indication that
Captain Mctemiels was telling the
whole truth of what is unquestiona
bly one of the matt remarkable ad
ventures on record. Mr. McDaniels
, erved with credit during the late
war, and subsequently returning to
Canonsburg. engaged in busines at
that point. lie has ever borne the
character of a gentleman. and his
reputation for honesty and veracity
is unimpeachable. By his neighbors
be Is regarded as an upright man
and an enterprising merchant, and
at his home last evening, a large
number of friends were continually
calling to tender him hearty con
gratulations on his sale return.
AN INTERW lEw.
After briefly announcing to Cap
tain rdellaniels Ihe object of his visit,
the reporter remarked that the in
terest of the public in his remarka
ble ease was increasing, an& that
there was a general desire to hear
from himself -the story of his adven
tures.
Capt. Nlienaniels—Yes. sir; I un
derstand that my disappearance has
given rise to a great many theories
us to what could have happened me.
and mustany that In giving explana
tion of all that has transpired that I
sin glad to do so to the Leader, as
my family inform me that of all the
journals in Pittsburgh, it has been
the one ItiAttent my cue without
prejudicetol my character as a man
and 8 . gentleman.
The reposer modestly acknowl

still weak, and sick at heart, but /

I was aboard a vessel of some kind.
The rolling of the ship, the sounds of
tramping overhead, and the tioiiring
on all sides, confirmed this view.
THE MYSTERIOUS VISITOR.
ON TILE OCEAN`
While I sat thinking fearing and
hoping by turns, a noise overhead
atttacted my attention, and at the
top of the ladder a trap-door opened
and the dint outlines of a human
form appeared. It was a man, and
after putting down it lantern which
he held, he set some bread and water
on the steps, and 1 ask him "Where
am 1?" To this no reply was made,
and the door being closed 1 wa.4again
left in darkness, I clam mered up
the steps anti tried the door, but
could not open it. I called out sev
eral times, and tried every passible
means to attract attention, but all to
no purpose, so I again decended and
decided to await events.
Rep—have you any means of know
ing how long you were there, or
what time elapsed from you were
drugged until you recovered your
senses?
Captain McDaniel.4—Of course pot.
I was insensible, It may have been
hours or days. I have not theslight
est idea. It was night continually,
or darkness rather.
MORE VISITS.
The next time the wan cline, I
again ask him where I was, but still
he made no reply. "Get me some
tea." I called out, when he replied
,'L will see," and disappeared. In
abOut half an hour afterward be re
turned, iringing me tea in a tiu ves
sel. fie spokein a gruff voice, and
was evidently American or English,
as he spoke English well, without I
the slightest apparent foreign accent.
Another solitary wait in darkness—
hours perhaps---and • the visit was re
peated. 'again asked, "Where am
.1? What are you going to_ do with
me? Vhere am I going?'r "You'll
know soon enough,'.'- he replied, and
wlth,this left• the bread and. water
and dssap a peared. Anxiety for my
family ha superseded all thought of
physical pain, and I sat down. Soon
after the door opened again and the
dim form of two men appeared and
one called;
"coltE UP ON DECK:"
I gladly obeyed, and staggering to
the steps managed to ascend, when
the men placed themselves ono on
each side. and kept me on deck.
Two or three men were forward, and
they passed to the port (left) side of
us, we being near the starboard
(bright) tine of the vessel, and it (the
boat) vratrpolled aroundby means of
a rope to tbeiiide*here I was stand
ing. One of the men who was stand
lag by me descended to the boat, an.
Other of the men taking his place. I
was ordered to "get over into that
boat." This I refused to do, and the
men seizedme and forced me over.
I caught a rope and In another mo
ment was in the boat. The two men
followed me, and the man who first
descended took the tiller, the other
Imp the oars, - 1 was ordered to sit or
bedown forward,and the boat moved
off.
THE SIIADOWY VESSEL.
Rep,—Can you recollect anything
about the veasel?
Capt. 11eDanieL3—No, sir, I nevei
saw her except in darkn ess. The
star—there was no moon—were oc
casionally visible, but there were
heavy clouds floating across the sky.
There were only a feW men to be
heseen about. I should think the
vessel was something like an oyster
hotit—a sloop. Perhaps about thirty
feet Tong, and from twelve to sixteen
wide. There were no sails set. I
cannot tell whether the vessel Was
"laying to" or at anchor. Weil, the
bmt moved off, and on my right
obzerved a bank of White mitt or
heavy fog. The men changed .- he
direction of the bo boa t several _Mes.
and, to tny, frequent questions, bo re-
ply was made., • I got up..determin
ed If they wade any movement, to
knewter •triy. life. The, vessel was
dimly risible against the sky,'and in
a tnotbebt the man at the left, who
had an oar, called. "Port!" The
boatman then headed for the mist,
and as we entered it the same man
called; "Keuq) her at,that," and we
were in the thick- of the fog. We
laid them about fifteen minutes. I
could hear tho surf breaking,, and
knew we were not far from shore.
The boat was then rowed rapidly to
ward the sound of thesurf, and In a
moment the shore appeared, only a
few yards distant.
"JUMP OVT."
said the spokesman, and I jumped
into water obout waist deep, The
water was quite warm and I waded
ashore, and on turning round saw
the boat rapidly disappearing Into

the ascent was gradual, and after

Captain MeDaniels—No, sir, noth

how

overalls and they all wore

to me. I sat on the ;:lioren'ittiA".l
awoke, for some time, awaiting day
light, and I heard horses feet. I
called out "Helios!" and out of the
grey mist of the morning rode three
horsemen in uniform. I commenced
-to tell them that I wanted to get
away,_ hut they talked in some lan
guage that I could not understand,
and made signs for me to follow. I
thought that they were Mexicans and
that I had been set ashore in Mexico.
They rode Inland, and after going a
mile and a half, stopped at a small
inclosure where theme was a long, -
low building and several other sol
diers lounging around. Here they
went, up to what I should judge was
a superior otlimr by his uniforn, and
as they pointed to me with excited
gestures, I could readily understand
that I was the subject of - their con
versation.
Est Tiff: PRISON-I'EN
After hearing theta, the officer made
a sign and I was seized and thrust
Into the enclosure, where there were
seven or eight negroes chained, and
hi captivity. Their appearance was
truly horrible, some being branded
on the cheek, and others on the fore
head. They were in a semi-nude
condition. and there I was also placed
in the same fix.
Rep.—Not chained ?
Captain MeDaniels—Yes, sir, man
acled by the leg with fetters. The
soldiers brought in some ftxxl con
sisting of rice, yams, oranges, and
some water. I sat down, and was
soon aware, from the little of the
conversation that 1 could understand,
that I was in the power of the Span

A COLQUED ACI/UAINTANCE.
SOOU after my capture there was
one old darkey who attracted my
attention. He was continually talk
ing, and from the dfferent sounds
which he- gave utterance to must
have had a smattering of four or five
different languages. The old fellow
appeared to bear his fate very philo
sophical Iy, and he interested himself
very much in me. We carried on
quite a conversation in pantomime,
his broken English phrases some
times making known his meaning.
On the second day he, after some
very expressive gestures, said
"NIELLICAN MAN, Rl' ANIO hA
CoNIPREHENDEZ VOUS:"'
I did comprehend. Comprehened
that ho had just given me the infor
wation that I was an American and
would be shot by my Spanish captors.
They had probably reported
. having
captured an American filibuster, and
were only awaiting orders before
putting an end to me. By this time
I was in great anxiety as to my fain
tly and friends, and that, together
with - the thought that I should per
haps be murdered in cold blood by
the Spaniards, put me in a terrible
dread. I determined to make an
effort to escape, and had began to col
lect such food as I could save from
my daily allowarim, when on the
fourth night after my capture, I was
I released in an unexpected manner.
NEGRO ON THE RCENE.
W hile cautiously looking around
and trying to find some leasable plan
whereby I could escape from the
guards, the door or wicket of the
prison pen suddenly opened and
eight or ten large. tall and powerful
looking negroes entered, They were
all armed, and at once began to re
lease the prisoners from their shack
les. My old colored friend was one
of the first freed from the chains, and
be speedily performed the same act
for me. I rose to nleet, weak and
dizzy, but In a few moments-the joy
ful thought that I had escaped a ter
rible death, gave me a temporary
strength which increased until I telt
almost well.

A hurried consultation took place
between the rescued and the rescuers.
and I could see my colored friend
pointing to me, and understood that
he was pressing my claims to their
regard. A hurried Signal was given,
and we emerged from the building
and struck - out for the mountains,
walking in single tile.

captain resumed: How fiar o we walk

eighteen wiles.
Many precautions were taken to
hide our tra:l. Different routes were
taken, and by the ratified feeling of
the air I could understand that we
nad attained a pretty high elevation.

It was evening when I woke, as I - '-

air was balmy, warm awl pleasant,
and I should think during the day a
thermometer would show about
ninety degrees in the shade.- The

kindness—gave me part of all the
food they could procure. This was
generally fruit or vegetables, "but

any horsemen were seen, and this
set me to thinking that if I were
caught In their eompauy my fate was
sealed. But asl hid no knowledge
of the country, and knowing I would
suffer in any case if caught again by
the Spaniards. I watched and wait
ed for something to turn up. One
night after a tramp of about ten miles
I 'vas sitting thinking and smoking
a cigarette which had been made for
me by the old negro. The sun was
sinking and everything.was calm and
still. Half of the negroes were asleep,
and the others were apparently ab

and I then knew, as I had been read
ing a work on Cuba, we were near
Havana and that the sound was that
of the evening-gun of Moro castle,
which guards the entrance to the
harbor. I then made up my mind
to make a strike for liberty, and col
lecting all the food I could—limes,
oranges and baked rice—l stole cau
tiously away from camp, and made
off toward the point from which the
sound had appeared to come.
&N THE ROAD To HAVANA.
I walked that night perhaps about
ten miles, and in the morning crawl
ed into a thicket and sat down. I
waited, knowing that if I way in the
right direction 1 should hear the gun
at stwise. I sat perhaps about forty
minVes, and to my great Joy again
heard the welcome sound. I then
slept for some hours, and when I
again woke up it was, I should think,
about two o'clock. I looked around
and saw some fruit a short distance
and going up gathered some for a
future supply. I walked at night,
avoiding any roads, but that wasn't
hard to do, as they were only moun
tain paths, and in the morning laid
down to sleep. Every night and
morning I heard - the gun. getting
louder and louder as I approached
the city, and on the fifth day I found
when daylight came. that I was in
full view of the city of Havana.
The harbor, with shipping of all
nations, was before me. American,
English, Spanish and French flags
floated above the ships, and I felt that
I. was saved. I could even hear the
.hells striking aboard the ships, and
was convinced that I would soon be
aboard and on my way home.

I would be very likely arrested if I

to find some one who could talk
English. For four different evenings
I was unsuccmtul, but on the fifth I
heard the expression.
HURRY Ul' YOU D-FOOL!
This was certainly English- and
plain English at that, and going up
I found a sailor engaged in an alter
cation with a Spanish hackman.
The sailor was i xto 'rated, and he,
atter a short chat, invited me aboard
his ship. I went, and found that it
was the English . barque "Godol
pilia," of Liverpool, sailing between
that port and Havana and Demere
en. I remained aboard that night,
and telling my story to the sailor,
whose name was Edward Ackley, an
Englishman, he gave me writing
materials, and I wrote to Dr. Alex
ander, telling him of my position
and requesting him tosend me mon

Mr. Ackley, who wits the steward

had elevep men employed, and my

ever, I got to New Orleans all right,
but found no letter from home.

Writing of the misapplication of

through the - Attorney General's
office, or as sanctioned by the State
Treasurer. The State has a number
of suits in the Supreme Court at
Washington against certain corpora
tions rcsistiug-the payment of their
taxes,.a thing now very common for
corporations to do. These cases
legitimately belong to the Attorney
General to try—that's what the Jaw
officer is paid to do, and to lighten
his duty while he is doing this he is
awarded a deputy. But the Slate
Treasurer thinks otherwise; and, in
stead of notifying Mr. Dimmick and
his deputy of these eases, he employs
ex-Attorney General Brewster, ex-
Deputy Attorneys Smith and New
lin, and Wayne MaeVeagh,
four lawyers, to proceed to Washing
ton to do what one could really have
done. It will cost, the State not leis
than $lO,OOO for this service, which
ought to have been performed by
the Attorney I ieneral and his deputy.
Messrs. Maeltreagh and Newlin are
members of the Constitutional Con
vention. and as a matter of course,
when attending to these suits before
the Supreme Court at Washington,
were neglecting their duty in the

and brought from an adjacent farm
house bread and milk, which satisfi

of day left the cars and went to Sab

The train that left Baltimore at 5:25

we must wait there until one hun

quest of something to eat. Walking
half a mile they secured a aubstantbil
supper at Cilbert's Hotel, in Meehan

The return of the cars was perilous
owing to, the great severity of the
cold and the fearful wind that swept
over the country like a sand blast.
