The "Minnesota" on Fire at Sea,
Of nil titualiuni of danger and dig.
tress to wbich men In their various
pursuits can be exposed, there is none
more full ot borror loan that or being
aboard a burning shin in mid-ocean.
On land, wben a fire breaks out, it
nearly always happens that, whatever
be the peril to life and property .strong
band and willing hearts are near to
rescue or preserve. But at sea there
is no help Irom without, and if the
means for extinguishing fire be not in
complete order, tbe discipline of the
crew not perieot, or tbe captain and
officers not cool and experienced, the
doom of tbe unfortunates on board is
sealed, for if any escape tbe flames It
id only to perish by tbe waves. I be
public, unhappily, has beard of late
only ol instances in which the eie.
ments or saloly cave been ebamotuiiy
wanting, and the terrible fate of. the
human beings on board tbe Bienville
and the Missouri are still vividly in
tbo remembrance ol every one.
- In bright contrast with the wretched
and culpablo mismanagement which
doomed so many of our fellow-beings
in these ships to death in all shapes ol
unimaginable borror, we have now to
relate tbe story, as we have it Iron
an eye-witness, of the diliverance of
the-steamship Minnesota irom des
truction by fire last Cbtismas Day.
All that the publio op to the presort
time knows of ths occurrence was
contained in the fow lines of a message
by tbe Atlantio Cable, to tbe effect
that, "Tbe steamship Minnesota, irom
New York, the I9tb of December, ar
rived at Queenslovrn; had beon on
fire, five days out, and, after throw
ing overboard 120 bales of cotton, had
put out tbe fire, and proceeded safely
on ber voyage." "Five days outr
That means in tbo middle of the At
lantic, a thousand miles from any laud
there would be any cbanco ot. reach
ing in boats, if, indeed, it were possi
ble for boats to have been lowered, or
if lowered, to have lived during tbe
hurricanes that swopt tbe Atlantic
last December. We shall let our in.
formant tell bis story io his own
words, merely promising that the
Minnesota, Captain Thomas F. Free
man, is one of the fleet of the Guion
line of steamers botwoen New York
snd Liverpool, and sailed from Now
York oo the 19th of December last,
witb only a few cabin and no steerage
passengers, and a lull general cargo
"It was Christmas bve, and our
small company of passengers wore in
the saloon, not very merry, but try.
ing to amuse ourselves in sober, or-
deriv fashion, inero was do lomp
tatioo to go on deck, for a howling
galo was rsging, and a very high sea
had been running for two days past.
A few minutes past eight the first
officer put his head in at tbe door of
tbe saloon, and said be wanlod to
speak a moment wit,h tbe captain.
Uappening to be near, 1 overboard
the whisper, 'Tbe second engineer has
lust informed me, sir, that tnoy can
smell fire wry uluinly from the coal
bunkers.' Tho captain went oat, of
coarse. 1 following, and on me bridge
deck we could see smoke escaping
item the ventilators forward of the
smokestack. Uesoendinpj to the main

captain orderd a bole to be rut In tho
dock forward of the doctor's room,
and while this was being done, the
chief engineer had tbo donkey engino
connocleo to two noso. ah torn
done very quickly, yet without bustle. I
Whon tbe hole was cut through, the
red Jlamel below wore plainly visble.
The water was pumped in, ana ono oi
the ventilators being temoved at tho
collar, another stream was directed
through ths aporluro upon me sneei
of rod flames coming along from aft.
Then I heard the ordor given by the
captain, 'Take off some portion of tbe
main hatoh get a whip on the fore
boom, lead to steam winch, break out
cargo, and put the' hose down tho

voioe oume buck liko thunder : 'Go on, I
and do s I tell you, quickly.' Bo
ftectrng sines upon the matter, I am
convjnood tbe captain was right, for,
unless the fire oould bs mastored by
streams of water direotly of applied
there) was no possibility saving
the ship and the lives of all on board.
I got one peep below whon tbe haioh
waa removed, and shall nevor forgot
the sight for, right across tbe ship, a
few feet abaft tbe main hatoh, was one
sheet of flame.
"It was frightful to see one after
another of tbe small nnmber of brave
who Ventured into the bole to
break opt tbe cargo helped out almost
suffocated;- Yet still the fight a fight
ot the severest kiod for lile west on
for thirteen hours, and bow the faeroio
men could stand tbe smoke (the blind
ing, suffocating smoke of burning cot
ton Is worse than any one can im-
agino) is beyond my comprehension.
uur nobis captain was in and around
tbat borriblo main batoh during lbs
thirteen hours, ana seemed ss it made,
not of flesh and blood, bat a compound
of iron and asbestos. The only officer
wno seemed to be endowned witb like
endurance was tbe chief engineer,
who, tboogb onoe attacked with vom
ting, was only away a few minute.
To add to our trouble, twice very
heavy aea broke on board, and an im
mense quantity of water went down
tbe batoh ; it oaoaod subsequently a
good deal of labor to all banda to get
out of tbo ship tbe water tbat bad
helped to save our lives. ' At last
some firemen were sent down to bold
the hose and help to book on the bales
and cases, and tbe last fiery bale went
overboard at half-past nine on Christ
mas morning. t .
"Tbe scenes at tbis time was heart-
rendering. There lay stretched, in
various places, tbo first and second
officers, second engineer, doctor, ear
penter, joiner, boatswain and bis mate,
chid steward, second steerage stew
ard.and three brave seamen, writhing
in agony, all of them blind, bandages
over their eyes, and sunuring excruci
ating pain, not only in their eyes, but
in inoir inruuis anu cneaia. vur ne
roio captaiu suffered loss, but his eyes
were mnsmcd, and his voice could
only be board in a wbispor. 1
"Uoneraliy speaking, during trying
contingencies on shipboard, pssson
gore are a source of trouble to the offi
core and crew. Of course, any assist.
ance we oould render in actual labor
on deck would be of little avail; but
wben one after another of these brave
mon was brought into tbe saloon our
energies found tbeir right direction
in assisting the saloon and steerage
stewardesses in bathing these poor sul-
erers bandaged eyes, and giving them
all the reliet we could.
"Wben tbe fire was finally subdued.
and a careful examination showed that
no treacherous spark was loft bolow,
tbe cargo restowod, and the ebtp put
to rignis, i ventured to ask me cap
tain if any time be had despaired of
saving our lives. 'Unly onco, Le re

and he added 'in all my life I never fell
so full of gratitude to the good Lord
of Heaven and Earth, as I did wben
I came up out of tbat holo wben all the
trouble was past. Need I add, that
in tbis pious sentiment we sll shared
and our Christmas Day was pawed in
a msnner befitting those who bed
thus been mercifully rolieved from the
utmost peril or tbeir lives."
A Bemarkable Test Plate.
One of the devices used by micro.
soopists to test tbe correctness and
power of tbeir lenses consists of a glass
plate, upon which linos or exceeding
fineness aro engraved by the diamond!
For this purpote a small ruling machine
is used, all tbe parts whereof must be
made witb unusual nicety. In Europe
tbe test platos made by M. Nobert, of
Prussia, have long been celebrated for
tbe fineness of tbeir ruling, and in
this country tbose ot Air. L,. m. Kutb
erford. of New York oily. Tbe ex
pense of the best Nobert plates bss
been 8100 each, and the finest rulings
heretofore done have been 120,000
lines to the inch. There are few
microscop'iHts who bare ever been
able to see or rosolve tbe linos of these
plates owing to tbe difficulty of prop
erly lighting tbe plate. Dr. Wood.
ward, of tbe United States Army, is
among tbose who have succeeded i
doing so. He has not only seen them
bat bas photographed the lines.
Professor F. A. P. Barnard, Presi
dont of Columbia Colloge, New York
bas lately received from Nobert a now
tost plate, ordered some two years
ago, at an exponse of $200, wbich sur
passes in tbe oneness ol Its ruling any
thing heretofore produced. It is i
slip of glass Si inches long and 11
inches broad, in the center of which
the unassisted eye may discover wbst
appears to be a mark perhaps the
fiftieth of an inch in width. But
when placed undor the microscope
this mark is found to be composed of
a great numborof parallel lines. The
plate, in fact, contains twenty lest
bands, that la to aay, twenty actios of
lined as will occupy or more man oo
cudv the field of view of the micro1-
scope. Tho flnoness of each band or
'J
series
varies from a ratio of three
thousand lines per square inch up to
firo hundred ana fortii thousand lines
Dor sauare inch : tbis last band con
tains doubls tbe number of lines ever
befall ruled on a test plate. Nobert
is said to have remarked, on sending
this plate, that if lbs microsoopist, on
seeing those lines, found that they
wcra not sufficiently fine, be would
engage to role still finor plato.
When Professor Barnard succeeds in
seoing thorn, doubtless be will let us
know.

but for wbich tbe English public would
bsve been compelled to wait tbe am

of victories wbich involved the fate of
an empire. Tbe English bave scarce
ly begun to learn tbe use of the tele

anuct a contempt lor tbo American
system, and plumo themselves on the
more solid and scholarly character of
meir newspapers; but while ibis view
may nave beon once correct, an im
partial comparison of American and
English journals or the present day
would show that in addition to an:
amount of news, which would supply

leading articles, literary reviews, and
correspondence in every issue of one
of our first-class papers are as thought-
lui ana as careiuiiy considered as the
articles which appear in tbe columns
of tbo London Timet.
Tbe Herald was, perhaps, more ric-
idly organized than either the Times
or the Tribune, not only with respect
to lbs news department, but as to its
editorial crops. Both Mr. Raymond
snd Mr. Greeley permitted great free
dom in their writers, and encouraged
individuality oi thought and opinion.
The former, indeod, rarely interfered
witb bis associates, suggested topics.
or dictated a line ol policy. Each
editorial writer selected bis own sub
ject, treated it In bis own way, In
keeping, ol course, with tbe tone and
character of the paper; and Mr. Ray-
monu, evon wneu in town, rarely saw
the articles except in proof. Tbis
system bad. undoubtedly, its disad
vantages ; slight variances of opinion
were sometimes detected in tbe paper,
which, of. coarse, were laid to his
cbsrge ; but this wss balanoed by ob
vious advantages. Mr. ilonnott pur
sued a very different systom. He es
tablished tbe daily council or editors,
wbicn is etui a lesturs in the mansgs

Mr. Bennett kept the publio at a

CAN,
A Neat Swindle,
Tbe following, from tbe Philadol-
pbia rress, is interesting to all deal
ers in jewelry : ;
The otber day, at about 12 M.. a
carriage, elegant enough in all its ap
pointments to be a private "turnout,"
drove up to Ibe door of one of the
largest jewelry establishments on
Chestnut streot, notfsr from Twelfth,
and from it descended a gentleman,
at loast so to all appearances, attired
in tne moss issnionsoio manner
Sauntering inside with an easy grsce,
he reqoosted to see some jewels, sta
ting that be desired to make a large
purchase. '. He carried in his hsnd a
handsome case, or bag, which he de
posited on tbe glass before the clerk
who stepped forward lo wait upon him.
He was very particular in his choice,
but at last selected about 12,000 worth
of jewelry of arious kinds and styles.
As the clerk wss about to put lbs nu
merous little boxes into one large re
ceptacle, the stranger ssid i "Wait a
moment; we can do beltarr" and
opening bis case which still remsined
upon me countor. oe took from it and
handed to tbe clerk a neat box with a
koy, sufficiently large to hold all bis
purchases. Into this tbo clerk put
tbe jewelry and banded it back to bis
customer, who locked it. leavins? the
key in the lock, and replaced it io tbe
osg, closing me latter. Then putting
his gloved hsnd into the breast nock.
et of bis cost, as if lo take out bis
pocket-book, be exclaimed, in great
surprise, "Well, how forgetful f sm !
I bsve left my book and monoy at tbe
hotel. I must go tack and get it
Very careless of me, very. You will,
of eonrse, want to keep tbis. It
wouldn't do to trust ao entire stran
ger with such valuables." and. onen
ing the bag, be again took out tbe
the little box and banded it to the
clerk. "It s very annovlng. but I will
drive right to the Continental and be
back in a lew moments." With a few
commonplace remarks, the elegant
gentleman returnod to his carriage
and was seen to drive away in the di
rection of the Continental, taking
witb bim the nice and innocent little
bag be bad brought. They waited at
the storea long lime for bim lo come
back, in lact he bssn t corns back
yet At last a light dawned upon tbe
terrified clerk, and he reached for the
beautiful litllo box with ths beau
tiful little key. "Oh, it's all right
of course," he hoped, in spite of bis
suspicions. "Something has detained
the gentleman, but I may as well make
sure, lie is snre now. Ths beautiful

A Man'i Way and a Woman' Way
When a woman has a ben to drive
into a coop she takes hold of ber hoops
witb both hands and shskes tbem qui
etly towards the delinquent, and says s
"bhew 1 there." Tho hen takes ono
look at tbe object to convince herself
tbat it's a woman, and stalks majesti
cally into tbe coop in perfect disgust

He goes out of doors and says, "It is
singular that nobody in tbis house Can
drive a ben but myself," and picking
up a suck oi wooo, nuns it at me oi
fending biped, and observes, "Get in

stoly loses her reason, snd dashes lo

msn straightway dasbos after her.
She comes back again with her bead
down, wings out, and followed by an
assortment of siova wood, fruit cans
and coal clinkers, with a much puffing
and very mad man in the rear. Then
she skims up on tbe stoop, and under
tbe barn, and over a fence or two, and
around tbe house, and back again to
tbe coop, all the while talking as only
sn excited ben can talk, and all tber
time followed by things convenient
