DAILY MOIUmG POST*
SATURDAY MORNING:
In .the-report given of tho recent buttling of
thouofartuuatQ.Garden City ncarViqkaburg, it
is stated that aa soon as ibe cry of fire yras giv
en, the pilot' on dutyi Mr. Bartrßoweh, proceed
ed to round the boat to, and-td land hef on the,
Arkansssoide. Capt. Shaw, being *onfined to
his berth by sickness, did not make his appear
ance at tho moment, and as there was no time
to be lost, the pilot started" her' immediately
across tho river, withont stopping the-engines.
Tho Mississippi shore, to which sbo wus the near
est, was bluff-banked, with a very strong euri ent,
and (here wWdapgbr in attempting to land her
on - that side, J>ht in that'moment'of alarm and
peril, the pilotdid not forsake bis post, or for
get hie duty, .and had presence Uf mind suffi
cient to steer for the opposite’Bhoro to amoro fa
-voraiJle'point for landing, and wheqi all escaped
in safety. ; fiteanr was up pretty well, nnd the
boat was going at a rapid rate, and in “straight
ening up ” for landing he found aho would go
hard' on, unless tho engineer stood by ready
to check her headway; and to ascertain whether
this wonldba done or;uot; he Bpoke down in
quiring if’the first engineer was on .watetjand:
was nneweredall right:” ' lie then told him
the boat would probably"strike very hard, un
less be Btood bydier to oheok her up. -V Hover
fear,” was the quick response, “land her safely.
I will stand by yon.” The boat was then near
ing tho shore rapidly, and the Confusion was at
its height—the whole ofterpart of her cabin be
ing in fall blaze—eoverthelees, , these Jfalibful
officers, on whom-the safety of all. depended,
were as 000 l and as firm as if nothing unusual
had happened. '
While’wlthiu a hundred-yards of the* shore,
the “check” bell Bounded, and in &n instant tbs
engines were reversed, and tbe headway ;of the
steamer stopped. Then if was that despair was
vislblu in the-countenances''of'nearly all, and
when the affrighted passengers sawtho'boat re
oeding, aud falling bark into the stream, many -
became frantic. But af .era forward revplutiou
or two, the boat glidea gently hod safety, to tho
shore, and thcrihetant sho tontAed the carpen
ter bounded overbdord with a-hawser and made
fast. The, pilot.wfieel; was lashed-hard dpwa to
keep her in position# and-all left burn
ing vessel, many birely * with tho clothes
they had on, and some without ehoe3 or stock
ings, and among theso* were the captain uud
the pilot', hot oh duty/ both c? whom were
awalconed-aftertbo boat was landed; : The pi
lot, Mr. Bowen,dost ail his clothes, and the engi
neer,.whose name haa.cot been ascertained fared
likewise’.
is elated further that the passengers wero put
out'upon the plantation of Mr. Charles pamp
bcll, a rich planter of Arkansas,, who treated
them in a very humane and literal manned ; and
that some-of the passengers whose effects had
bean saved, had determined to make Mr; C. a
present of a silver pitcher, as a token their
estimation of tho kindness that had been extea--
ded to them. ’ . ;
Now; all this is very well, and wo applahd- the
motives that actuated the-pasaengjirs in the do
nation they have made. But, weave at a toss to
conocive how men thus eitaated enciuld have ap
parently forgotten tho noble and glorious con
duct of tho pilot and engineer, to whom they
are indebted for their lives. Wc may talk nf the
daring courage of the general, when leading his
troops to battle, all the parapher
nalia of war, and a thousand attendant clroum
atancee, calculated to incite the soul to hettou
or of the indefatigability of Hannibal,-when
aiming to cross the Alps, with the goal of hie
ambition iu view ; but in noither case, are the
purest and uoblcst feelings of humanity brought
into exercise—in neither case is the same
courage manifested,* as the3fc ; two, brave and
generous-hearted men evinced, in the courage
ous daring and unflinching fidelity with which
they.stood by their poßts. Their names should
be forever honored and held in remembrance
by all who aro capable of appreciating
deur of true courago, and the impulses of: hon
est hearts.
