A STEAMBOAT SKETOR The hour was approaching for the departure of the New Haven steamboat front her berth at New York, and the usual crowd of passengers, and friends of passengers. newsboys, fruit ven ders, cabmen and dock loafers,.were assembled on and about the boat. We were gaking at the Motle2rgroup, front-the foot of the prome nade deck stairs, when our attention was at tracted by the singular action of a tall. brown Yankee, in an immense wool hat, chocolate colored coat and pantaloons, and a fancy. -vest. .Ile stood near the starboard paddle-box, and scrutinized sharply every female who came on board, every now and then Consulting an enor mous silver bull's-eye watch, which he raised from the depths of a capacious fob, by means of a powerful steel chain. After mounting guard in this manner. he dashed furiously down the gang plank and.up the wharf, re-ap- pearing on board almostinstantaneously, with a flushed face, expressing tl►e most intense anx iety:," This series of operations be performed several times, after which he rushed about the boat. wildly and hopelessly, ejaculating : "What's the time er day ? Wonder if my repeater's fast •' %%liar's the cap'n ? whar-s the steward ? whar's the mate ? whar's the boss that owns this ship ?" • “What:s the matter, sir ?” we o ventured to ask him when he stood still for a moment. "Hain% seen nothin' of a gal in a blue sun bonnet. with a white Canton crape shawl, (cost $15,) pink gown and brown boots. eh ? come aboard while I was looking for•the cap'n at the pint end of the ship—have ye ? hey ?' "No such person has come aboard." 'Tormented lightnin'! she's mY wife'." he exclaitned ; "married yesterday. All her tiunks and mine are aboard, under a pile of baggage as tall as a Connecticut steeple. The darn 'd black nigger says he can't hand it out, and I won't leave toy baggage any how. My wife, only think on't; was to come aboard at half-past four, and here it's most five. What's become of her ? She can't have eloped. You don't think she's been abducted,' do ye, mis - ravin' distracted ! What are they ringing that bell for ? Is the ship afire ?" "It is the signal fir departure, the first bell. The second will be rung in four minutes." "Thunder.' you don't say so? What's the calf]) ?" '•That gentleman in the blue coat." The Yaiikee darted to the captain's side. “Cap'n, stop the shiplor ten minutes, won't ye ?" "I can't do it, 6i r." "But ye must, I tell you. I'll pay you fur . Bow much will - ye as ?" • • "I could not do it.'' "Cap'n, I'll give ye tew dollars," gasped le Yankee. The Captain shook his head. give ye five dollars and a half—and a alf!—and a half!—awl a half !—and a hall .."• Inc kept repeating, dancing about in his agony, like a mad jackass on a hot non plate. "The boat starts at five precisely," said the captain, shortly, and turned away. ,•() ! you stunny-hearted heathen !" rnur n►ured the 'Yankee. almost bursting into tears. ••Partin' man and wife and we just one day married." At this moment the huge paddle-wheels be gan to paw the water, and the walking bean[ descended heavily, shaking the huge fabric to her centre. All who were not going to New haven went ashore. The hand, began to haul in the gang plank ; the fasts arc already cast loose. "Leggo the plank," roared the Yankee, col laring one of the hands. “Drop it like a hot potato, or I'll heave ye into the dock." yo !" shouted the men in chorus, as they heaved on the gangway. —Shut up, you braying donkeys !'• yelled tile maddened Yankee — , —or there'll he an ugly spot ofivoric." But the plank %vac; got aboard, and the boat pladicd the pier. In an instant the Yankee pulled ofT leis coat. flung hi. hat I.c,ille it ou the deck, and wildly to the -Hard. :Are von Arun;; or crazy ?'' cried a pas-en ,ci zing him. gob' to fling tllysel f. into the dock. and ,viii ai,hinti. - • cried the 'Yankee.

We believe they reached their destina tion safe and' sound. Sharp Betting.
