B. F. Dunkle, left.Gregg tewnship,

requested us to sead him the REPORTER,
which we did to the ameunt of $7.75
trusting to his honesty and manliness, to
pay for it, beyond any doubt, as its local
news would be of gresit satisfaction to him.
He lifted the paper regularly from week
to week. We sent liim a bill a few times,
but aaver got a reply. We then sent it to
a justice for collection, and are now in
formediby him, per postal card, that Mr.
B. F. Dunkle, says he will net pay the
bill which if aa honest debt, and for wbicb
we rendered lull value in good faith. We
judge from this fact, that Mr. Dunkle
must be getting along well, we know we
would be if we took the same plan and did
not pay our honest debts. We suppose
the people of Latisburg mutt appreciate
him very highly at an exemplary citizen,
and we know that hit old friends and ac
quaintances in Gregg township are pleased
to hear of him through the columns of the
REPORTER, which Mr. Dunklo so eagerly
read far several year!, and says blank
down he'll not pay far it. Success to B. F.
—what was Gregg township's gain and
joy in his removal, may be (to Latis

population, who will make no bones in de

[Kroiuthe Manchester Guard an. AprilltO ]
Mr. "Webster, Broughly Ferry, near Don
dee, has received a letter from hi* son,
who was second mate of the Clyde ship '
Arracan, burned at the tea on her voyage '
front Shields to Bombay with eoal*. The
Arracan left Shield* on the 11th of Sep
tember last. On the 14th of February h*r
cargo ignited. On the 'JOlh she was on fire
from stem to stern, and the crew were com
pelled to abandon her. They left in three
boats. The first, nndcr the command of
the captain, was picked up by the City of
Poonab, aud tho man were landed at
Aden ; the gig, commanded by the chief
oA cer, made the land at Cochin; but the
pinnace, under the charge of the second
male, Mr. Webster, provisioned for only
seventeen days, drifted about on the In
dian Ocean for thirty-thrt* days until fall
en in with the City of Manchester and:
landed at Calcutta, When picked up the
poor fellows weretXW mile* from the near
est laad, and were in a-ad condition. Mr.
Webster, in bis statement, says
In addition to myself, there were three
men and a boy on board on the loth of
March. The men cast lot* as to who
should be killed, and the lot fell upon the
boy. I would not allow them to kill him,
and threatened to shoot the first tuan who
shold lay hand upon him. Things went or.
this way for two days, when one oi the
men tried to sink the boat, and said he
would have the boy's life in twelve hours.
I presented my guri at him, and had no
sooner dene so than a bird flew over tha
boat. I tired and killed it. It was instant-,
ly secured and devoured feathers, bones,
and all. We subsisted after this on brana
clef, which adhered to the sides and bot
tom of the boat, and on the sea blubber,
which was ravenously laid hold of as it
floated past - Layford asked to be killod.
Another named davis struck him on the
head with a belay ing pin. The blood wns
caught in a tin and eagerly drank between
the twe I threw the tin overboard. The
same day these two men fought and bit
one another. They then shook hands and
laughed and kissed each olher like mad
men. "At last," suvs Mr. Webster, "We
were, through the mercy of God, picked
up by (.'apt. Ilardie ef the city of Man
chester, by whom we were very kindly
treated and breught to Calcutta."
The surgeon of the steamer which res
cued the men say* they were in a wretch
ed condition. They could not stand on
their feet, their eye* started from their
socket*, and they were perfect skeletons.
Altogether they presented the most pain
ful sight lie ever behold. The most cau
tious treatment had to be employed in
bringing about their recovery.
There is a new invention in telegraphy
which enables a number of instruments to
be operated simultaneously on a single
wire in either or both directions, and at
different stations nlong the line without
conflict, each instrument to do as much
work as the Morse or other instruments in
common use. The instruments arc adapted
to any kind ot receiver—either sounder,
or dial, or chemical recorder—anil each
transmitter is adapted to the receiver. The
operators'trensmillinjt the messages may
all be atone end, or divided between the
extremes of the line, or et intermediate
stations, sending different distances and in
different directions, the number of opera

brought into requisition at any part of the
