A CANATITA;ir ;GRACE DARGIN-o.,A_reft _Of
timber,. on - its way down/the river to the nearest
port, was' daShed to pieces by, the violence of the
rapids. 'There Sias the usual number of men
upon it, all : Of whom, except two, were!' fortunate
enough . .to get upon a few. logs, whieh -kept to
gether and .We're cornFrat!atively safe, Whilst their
two poor, coniad,es werh hopelessly Contending
with the tumbling Wavee, almost_with reach of
them, but. without their being able to afford' them
the slighteitl assiatance: .After a minute or two,
and when one More,woul, baye been their last, a
long oar, orsweep;'beliniging to the wrecked raft,
came floating byo They instantly seized it,' and
hell on "tillthey'vrere carried down more than a
mile, loudly calking for help as they went along ;-
but what aid Could. me render them? 'No craft,
none at least which sveref on the hanks of the rir
er—could liye in such a boiling ;torrent- as that ;
for it-was during one of the highlapring freshets.
Butthe ferryman was of a different opinion, and
could not'brook the thotight of their dying before
his eyea/ without his .rriaking a
_Single effort to
save them.' He could not, hoWever. go alone,
and there was not another mark; on that side of
the river within half a mile of him. His sister
knew this, and eoutageausly, like another Grace
Darhng. proposed at once to' accompany him-in
his perilaus adventure. He accepted her J)ropo
eal; and we had .the satisfaction of seeing the
'light punt put offfrom l,the shore!opposite to that
from which!vie were idly and ii , !ielessly looking
an, and'go gallantly over the suiging torrent ter
wards the 'sinking men. , The' oar. with' the
drowning rn•rn clinging to it, svasf..oating
'down the middle -of 'the strearniv'which in this'
particular Ihcality is more than a quarter of a mile

minutes more he tho White Water Mr:Ong the'
breakers, when.their late must 'Sealed; and the
,boat, if it Oki:red.-be dashed to pieces attong the
'rocks. This! Was the principal Point of
. dare , er,
and they. had to run down withih a most . fea7fol
proxiaitY:Of c . t, in orderto `cross the course down
which the, rowning milt' were -drifting, and, as
thei:did fO, to seize hold of them. without losing
their- own - 1 headway ' ; for there was not time' for
that. They succeeded-, in shooting athwart' the
current, rapid as4it Was, just below the men.—
With breathless and 'painful anxiety tee saw them
execute this-dangerous manceuvre. We saw the
ferryman lean over the- sid'e_Of his boat for a mo
ment. as it passed them, while his '.sister backed
water with her oar. uTney are, sayedl" some ,
one said,. close behind ine, in a :whisper so deeo
and earnest that I started,-anti turned to look at
the speaker; iwhen another, Who heard him„ ex
elaimed, ego, po; they are gone!, they are lost; ,
the boat has left them." And sure enough it hail.
But in aril instant' afterwards, just as we thought ,
they were ibout to be driven into 'the fatal break- I
ers,.they tamed, to our inexpressible delight,-, as ill
drawn, byl sortie invisible . power (the rope the fer
ryman had attached to the oar was, indeed,.invisi
ble to us.) and followed the beat. The ferryman ,
and bitaister bad yet to pull a fearful distance for
the. time they had to do it in,:.teiget out of i that I
part of the current leading . to the breakers. ~And
they adecimplished it. •The man had the hoot oar,
'and:rsre could see the tougtvesh.bend like a willow
wand as he stretched out to keep the head of the'
boat partially Letp the stre'am. His sister, l too,.
"kept her own r r and the little punt shot out ra
pidly into the comparativelyaguiet, stream• beyond
the intlOenee lof that fearful curre;t, Tablet was
rapidly driving thent , ,upon' the breakers. At Abe ;
foot of the cutrent which--they 'soon afterwards
reached, there was no ,further danger. - But we
viatcheir them still ; and ' we saw them row ashore,
on their lown S i de of the-river. One orals poor
fellows was sritotteh exhausted, that the ferryman
had to carry him on his hack to the nearest house,
where tie 60012 recove'red.... Twelve 'months after

Ht vis Boir--A•pumber of the curious c a ses
of the' prog:ess Of musket balls from the place
where they c'ere first lodged, have been observed'
by military surgeons. We have heard of *very
remar,:alda case, where the Musket ball struck
the fdrehead.abom . the nose, and having 'divided
into halves, one half wentmundbeneath the skin,
On the right aide, and `the other on the left,'advan

this fact, that the tWo half bullets met again be
hind, lifter having perforrned the circuit of the
head ip opposite directions, and, advancing with
a slightly diminished force, united and killed.an
'onfortun'ate man who stood in their nay ; 'but the
fact of the:spill:Mg of, the bullet, and the advance
of "each half in opposite direction's, is unquestioo•
able. The singular process of a musket ball front
'the forehead to the throat, has been recorded by
Dr: Fielding. At the first batttle of Nevibury,
in the time of themtvil ware, a medical gentleman
was shot near the left eye. The skull was fractu
red at the place; but though the , surgeon could
see the pulsation of the brain beneath the wound,
yet the bullet had 'turned to one side, and could
not be discovered. Various" bones were discharg
ed tient the wourli t ti the mouth and the nostrils.
At the time of the second battle of Newbury.
the wound healed, and could 'nut be eept open;
but about twelve yeareafter*ards when the doc
tor was riding'in a cold dark night, he felt a pain
on the left side of his. head, about the "almonds
of the ear," which occasioned a
_partial deafness'.'

sechone day in March, 1870, by a sudden puff of
crack in his en:, when nil thct sitfj" of his cheek
hung loose. °sir it had been paralyzed, and a hard
root pas,felt under the ear. Varioa tumors now
'appeared about the throat, and in August, 1672,
the bullet was, taken.out of the throat, near the
