Ohio River was frozen to the thickness Of two feet; a thing very unusuat in that part of the court , trY. - I waredettrined ;here tbrooglethe season bY,.l?usiness having Inuchjeisure time, 1 spent a conqiderable part of it in skating on, the river: _There were mad ,fwd skatets there from the eastern states; and; among tb.e..r‘ - t; were Jun Fields, of .New York, and Charley Ransoin, of Philflelphia.. We were all stopping at the same house (the"," Plant -,',er's"), and _a mole happy set of fellows never ' spent a, .wiuter togetbe,r. Our principal arousetnent in the evening was "whist" and enthie 'artd,-one everting; as -we were seated arOund_the table in the.•card-room, ei)- gated in our favorite 'game, and drinking tora.whiskey, Charley Ransom; who had been cogitating for some time; suddenly exclaim ed—, "Boys! let's go to lkfatliseu to-inorro'w." Now several of us Lad been °wanting, for a Weektir two to go - to Madison, but it was fifty miles up the ricer, which %%Ws frozen so tight no steamboat could run ; there' was no rails road or stage route- and the roads were so , bad-no one cared to attempt On horseback 1. so,-his piopositien,was met with some aston ishing* - 4 Hosv .8411 'we get there, Charley ?"' I asked, "If you will show us 'a way, Fields ind'myself will gladly go with you.' r" That 1 will, Ned!' exclaimed -Fields.— " would have given fifty &Mars, any time.- ' in.ibe 1;ot ten days to have been in Madison." 4, Well," rePlied Charrey, " I niust get:there by - some Means or other ; and, as the boats can't rib, and ,there does not seem ,to be any • very fea:sibler way of getting there, except up onSkatesi I have made up my mind to go that way, provided any one will go with me. •We can start by eight o'clock, and, sts,.te can easily make seven or eight miles an 'tour, we can get there-in time for dinner." • " But, Charley," said i, "we shall be•so stiff and lame, wharf we get - there, we shall not belt to move again in a week." "Dhow !" -returned . he, " we skate \that many miles almost any day in-the 'week for annisinientomd now; You Cavil rit. the idea.of going a paltry fifty miles, when business calls you. For my,part, I. am determined to go to-morrow, if I s)art alone." "-You,shan't go alone, Chat ley," said Fields. 4 ' I'm not afraid of getting blowed out on a fifty miles' skate; and if Ned is afraid of gets Ling usecrup, well let him stay at homeland ' skate for the amusement of the women." - "Ned.is not afraid of getting used up i s " I • • exclaimed, considerably piqued. " I will go with yon, - and thakelt-a hundred miles more to Cincinnati." _!' Owalong with your nonsenie,Ned," said Charley Ransom: You'don't` want to go to Cincinnati, or, w e -- either. What we do want-is to go to Madison; and,as that mat ter,is arranged, let's take a. drink all around, and go to bed." • . This propiisition was unanimously approved "of-and acted upon, and we were soon fur on our way to the land of dreams., Next morn- ing.We made our preparations, which consist -ed of a little extra clothing, and a'pocket pis:. tolper man, containing about a pint of "Old Bourbon." At nine o'clock we took our, de parture followed- by,cheers from the crowd on the Lever, and in fifteen minutes had . lost sight of the city. • - The morning was clear cold and bracing surface of the .ice was as smooth as a polished-mirror ;_ and; as we glided over the glassy field, and - felt ate exhilarating influence.! of our , --exercise, we looked upon the ancom pllshrnentbf our *ay miles jounkey as a mere pastime. low often the bottoms of our pint Basks were, turned- towards the Clouds, -or how often we-paid our respeets to the ; numej - roll& "groceries"that line the banka.ofthe Ohitt 2 I.odeprment solar not. Sufo,,e it to I say, we reached : our destination abodt:five o'- I clack in' the afternoon, but little the!wore fur our dada exertion. Next root'nitim, we got about -our business' with a good I Will';and four tiays._:afte; were 'ready for our retnrn.- - The day before we had heard- of heavy rains I up the river, and, when we started the clouds looked black and threatening; but we knew we should reach Louisiille in a few hours, I and tbought that in case of a rapid rise in I this river breaking up the iee,'we could run I in shore. without any serious risk of danger. I But we-bad vet to learn thit, when the s heavy ice inAhe Ohio liver breaks up, skaters lei better- be somewhere else ; and we did learn it before that night to our Colt. A:number of tirries, daring the day, we felt the heaving. of the ice,-as the rising vrater threatened its breakin) , tip; but-we had determined on get ting back that -night, and, besides, we did nob knew our danger,' so we disregarded symptoms that should have driv mita at once • to shore.. At four o'clock, we were only ten Miles frOm-Louisville, with the fiur prospect of being cosily settled in the barroom of the :'Planter's" before midnight.," We were -about midway. the liver .(rltich' was here about three quartetti of a 'bile wide), when - we were startled by several sharp sounds in quick.successjon, resembling the breaking - of a large tree RS much as anything r can'com pare it to. In .an instant. almost, the-whole surtaee of the .ice, as far as the eye could reacg.was . seamed with, and and fissures running in-.all directions, and the water began run• up over the ice. Charley 'Ransom, , whO V;ve:s slightly in: advance, turned to us;‘ and siaid, very coolly— Iliiya:we're in for it certain." ‘'" There's op - dodging that," said Jim Fields, " but• Old NiOk has been chasing are pretty l tight for sometime back, - without oyeirtaking, me, and I'll bet_ high I Can give him the slip on the ice,.any ow ; so, here goes for shore" -We dare titwaqd the Kentucky shore with the speed of Ihe wind almost, and had gone, perhaps, Mt yards,-when, to our dis may. the ice ben•an to part.and pile up, one cake above another.

TO - add to the . horror of, our situation, it'began to'rain lently, and we knew if we were not fortunate enough to, - •reach the aborelefore night set in, Our chatces would be slitif; indeed. • ' We-werer.fast getting workout by ourStrue,- glerr to • 'keep horn gettinecriished, -ma we were alsogetting.• benumbed with the cold, - when we" discovered an empty coalsboat,whicb th e lee had : torn from her moorings, coming - directly toward'us. : If we could succeed in getting on the-boat, -- our condition .would be improvedotAthOtigh the dauger would I --not be nuderially lesserunt: ,Oh, how eagerly we- now watebed.:4l4.aoal- ; boat, and debated., 1 ottr-'chaitees'of::-ge4ivfo* bi!ard.

But Cbat ley,papsom was made Of Other stuff. . He bad faces death in too matlyshapes, on the battle fields of .Mexico, to yield his life with , out a desperate struggle. " Are you Women," ho said," to sit down- so and diet or are you men, who .should be ashamed- to despair while life lasts I For my part, I am „going. ; to get on' board that boat ; and, if.you have at; reason left you will fol low me." "-How via we possibly manage to teach her l" said L "She has drifted so far away from us that we cannot, by any means, get theee e - aswe must be crushed by any attempt to cross the ice between it and ourselves," "Ned," said Charley, "I thought you was a man but a man would not talk so. If We stay-here, we must be crushed, or freeze fo -death; or be swept off and drown. We can't 'be any worse WI; if we make an attempt to gain the boat, for we have a chance of getting in, and here - we must perish. Stay there if it emit. vou ; but for me- —l'm. going for the boat. Ash ceased speaking, he stooped and cut the straps of his skates, and, kicking them off his feet he threw the knife toward us, and started over the broken and crashing ice for the boat. Stimulated by his example, we fol lowed suit and Commenced the race for life.— Our only chance was in, rapidity of motion, and we sped tike frightened deer.. There was now but a single cake of ice left between us and the boat, which partly rested 'on a large mass.. Charley was, of con , ahead ; and, •as he left the side of.the cake earest the boat, Jim andl landed ou the op site side. The boat and the ice we now sto upon began to separate, and with a desperate run and jump I succeeded in gaining the side of the boat, where Charley was already awaiting us. I was about a pace•ahend of - Fields, and my jumping, of course, lessened his chances by still further separating the two masses. He jumped, and fell short by a foot. and must in evitably have b e en crushed, bad not Charley, and myself caught his hands. as he arose to the surface, and dragged him on the ice again, but not a moment toe soon, for the immense cake_s, came together again with force enough to break both into numerous smaller pieces. Oar situation wasoow more comfortable, as our,boat rode, easily up over the ice; but we Were wet to the skin, and almcist perishing with cold. We were tow in sight of the city ; and foe the first time, we "realized the full danger of_ our position ; as the-noise of the " Falls" broke on nutears. The river at Lou -1 isville is very wide, and directly opposite the cite, and about midway the channel, stands " Corn Island." To the south of Corn Island , is cut a canal, from Louisville to Portland, through which the steamboats pass. To the north of the. Island, and between it and the Indiana Shore, is the Ohio rapids, from whfch Louisville derives its designation of the" Falls , City." • From Louisville to Portland, there issconsiderable„ descent in the bed of the rive' er, and as the bottom-is rocky and irregular. and the 'channel, narrow, the current tustea through with frightful rapidity, and with a l i noise at times almost deafening. -At a histlt stage of. water steamboats are Laken zover_ by skillful pilotage, but at a low stage of water, ' it is never attempted. Corn Island, standing directly in the centre of the stream, divides I the channel, but the locks at the-entrance of 1 the canal being shut, the main current is' turned to the Indiana side, and over the falls. •1 We came in sight of Corn Island, we could I see the ice jamming in onshore, piling up : perhaps to the heigth of twenty- or twentyel tire feet; and as it grew top-heavy, tumbling back again into the stream, until it was filial ; 1 ly carried off over the 'falls. Our situation 1 - was now desperate in the extreme. If we were earned in toward the Kentucky shore, to di mouth of the canal, we would be safe enough but the main body of the ice seemed tc b carried directly on to the -island, and if. w were carried into _that fearful crash, sur death seemed to await us. On--on we went, dawn past, the city, the Levee being lined with crowds gazing on the sublime spectacle. We could distinguish the. faces -of many a friend as we swept by, and the faces of all were blanched with anxiety and terror as they ga'resl on euefearful peth.• We debated between °meek es the possibility -of' leaving the boat and reaching the shore over the broken ice; s hut - the ice, as it neared the Is land, became so chopped up, that there was not a chnn . ce of ! , eatag safely over it, and our only hope of safety seemed to be to stick to the boat, and take our chances between the falls and the canal. - • ^, 4 Charley Ransom was cool and collected, as if e he vas on terra firma, but kept an anxious looking oat for_chances of escape - that might offer. Fields 'sat on the bottom cf she boat; almost completely 'stupefied by, cold and fright, and we could not seem to arouse him to make an effort when the critical moment -should arrive. . For . myself, I felt an awful dread of the horrid death that seemed in stole for us; but I was nerved to desperation,. and weulth have followed Charley on the most desperate venture. On—on we swept with fearful velocity, and -were now within two hundred yards 'of Corn Island, and driviog directly upon it. Oh, who can tell the agony of such a moment? Who can realize the ages of agony and suspense' compressed within a few short moments ofsuch imminent ptril ? None can realkle_ it' but each as have been -placed in so • terrible a situation. We were pow in what might be termed a whirlpool of ice, and a moment more would find us jam med in-the great upheaving mass. - • "Now, boys," said Charley RauFnm, and— though he was deadly pale, and his lips were compressed—his voice was clear and fire; ," now boys, be cool, and if we live-through the crush, try and reach-the shore of the Is land. It is our only chalice! Fields, roused by the nearness of the catas- 1 trophe had risen to his feet, and, with pallid 1 face and bloodshot eyea fs elood looking at the' dread prospect before us: - • "Now,!.' said Charley, as our -boat was lifted by the pressure behind, and we were being forced sideways up the perpendicula; wall of ice. "Now f". And, asslfe spoke, be leaped from the gunw.ale upon a cake of ice -y flaatingrtowards the rapids.' Lfollowed close is ',upon his heels; ' but before pool' Fields -could icollect his faculties'enough to make the at iftempt,-a-huge cake of ice came thundering doyen from, the •immeuse pile, and crushing throne! the upturned side of the bOat, it struck the poor fellow on the hip, and it and himself were carried .through the remaining f side of the boat . into the whirling .mass of I ice.. For 'an instant he rose to the surface; and, to. my dying hour, his,agonized look 1 Will haunt me, as he stretched forth his bands, And shrieked for aid. But no - human power could save himis An instant---one single in stant—we saw him; the next, he was crush ed into a shapeless mass, and whirled away in the-boiling cu r rent ! - . , , , I. When the people on the shore saw us be lino carried almost eertain.deetth,--they had 1 ha stily p gathered ropes from• the 'steamboats I lying in -shore; anecnessela the' candid: to Gait j Island. Ifurrying overlo the falliisitle; they ; were in readiness to render such aid as Oh . .. . w . ..bumstances. .uld permit.- When Charley jumped from he, boat, a rope was , thrown directly across ilk cake of ico be alighted on, and with - the natinct of sclf-preservation; he passed it and: his arms, and gave the word Ito hani,in; It , was done with, a will. Poor Charley was .. rawn to shore; but he--had been caught, in' his short !Aosta, - between ( 1 the ice, and h s left arm had iutfered a com pound frac,!tur ,of the elbow.
