THE RULE Or MLLITA.ErEEHILtiIi ? 1
al
Many years ago, Lord Malmo, in ( !s
tory of England, tracing the rise and PrPgreW
of the Toritish Empire in India, said z,crl may
also observe on this oceasion s :that of the three
most eminent chiefs who ever fought in British'
India—Lord OLIVE, Sir Exits Covir;a4d g , tr'
Anruun Wiermxtmor—that they gainie ,lt
battles of Plassey, of WandeWash, kind At'
Assaye, at' the ages, respectively; of ikhirti;
two, thirty-three, and thirty-four. , Ate may
hence, perhaps, be doubted (rmtiVithstandlitif'

- TheoW%oniatits, as might bo expected, .
went to India. Instead of acting by way of
gentle hint on the mind of tho gallant and ,
aged general, they rendered him irate. Be
would retain his command, ho would not prac
tice the virtue of resignation, he ignored his
own ago and infirmities, and defended Aiwa('
thus : tt Although from my gouty feet I am
physically unequal to active bodily exertion, I
assert that in judgment and intellect I am fully
equal, if not superior, to any of the younger
commanders at Dinapore." The idea of a
general, in command of an army, unable ham
gouty feet, to cross a horse is so abstird
that not even Punch could imagine my
thing more ludicrous. As the Times curtly
said, "A General ought not only to have judg
ment and intelligence but also feet." The Pr-
suits of civil life may generally bo followed
up without as active bodily exertion," (Indeed,
Lord PALMERsTON is frequently a martyr to
the gout, which does not disqualify him fain '
acting as the head of British Executive;)
but, except In the case of Marshal SAXE, Vi l 0
was convoyed to one of his battles in a litter,
from transient physical inability to mount e
horse, we never heard of any victorious Generd
who had not taken active part in the warlike
proceedings of each battle-strife.
When bodily and disqualifying inffirnalf' ,
thus prevents a commander from what General
Ltioyn correctly describes as " active bodily
exertion," he must command—by proxy.
However brilliant the plans which he may dray
up, he must leave others to execute them—
without being able personally to see that hb
orders are fully understood and properlf
carried out. If this be not incompetency we
know not the meaning of the word. Culpable
incompetency it cannot fairly be called, thotigh
it Is as injurious as if it were culpable.
The case in question is an apt illustration of
the weak and watched system of employment
by seniority, which prevails in the British mili
tary- service. That because A's commission
as General is dated ten years prior to that if
B, is no reason why, when the interests of a
nation—its honor, its territory, its prestige—
are at stake, A, who is eighty-six years olc,
and "physically unequal to active bodily ex
ertion," shall have the command, simply or
the score of seniority. One would think that
mental and physical efficiency ought to be more
valued than simple seniority. It is a lino thing
to venerate old age—it is u foolish thing to
make senility take the place which of
manhood can best oecithy with gain and credit
to the country. .
When Watmeroyou went to the defence of
Spain and Portugal—in which ho baffled NA-'
POLEON'a best troops for flee years—helm :1 the
advantage of having the Marquis Wsuirstay,
a Cabinet Minister, for his brother, through
whose influence ho was appointed, over the
heads of a crowd of general officers, most of
whom, like. LLOYD, bad plenty of years, but
were "physically unequal to active bodily ex-
ertion." ThIS was an exception. The military
career of NAPOLEON, as well as that of WEL
LINGTON, terminated when each was about
forty-six years Old. NAPOLEOWSgreat lieuten
ants, the 3farehala, of the Empire, were all
young men when they had fought their way
to rank and eminence. For NAPOLEON, repu
diating the 'fatal system of seniority, in the
military as well as In the civil service,
adopted and pursued the common-sense and
practical plan of putting the pro men in
the proper places. He wouldate ° i f '
:have in
vited disappointment and det b -patting, a
gouty old man of eighty-six into the chief
command of one of the most important pro
vinces of his empire.
There is little doubt that England will reco
ver her dominion in Ilindostan—how to retain
it, afterwards, will he the difficulty. Gouty old
generals, who stand (or rather who sit) self
confessed as "physically unequal to active
bodily exertion," Must be put upon the shelf,
:at once and for ever, if British India is to be
retained. In other words, an entire change of
system in the military and civil administration
of Hiudostan must be made, and made most
thoroughly. Youngblood must be infused in
to that system. Henceforth, British India

TRIAL FOR MURDER IN FRANOE.—LOLA
MON IL'Z
On the 28th of March, ldta, an interesting trial
took place at Rouen, in which Bouvallon, one of
the editors of a paper published in Paris, called
"The Globe," was charged with the murder of
rihicalef, the editor in chief of " Lo Preece," a
well.known and highly influential paper published
In the hum city. Although the alleged murder
took place at Paris, circumstances rendered it mi. ,
°emery to remove the trial to Rouen. The defence
was, that the deceased was killed by the accused
in a duel, according to the rides of honor regulat
ing such combats, It was gravely objected, on the
part of the prosecution, that the defendant was
not entitled to avail himself of these laws, because,
at one period of his life, he had been guilty of
stealing a watch ! The larceny of the watch was
clearly proved en the trial to have been committed
in January, 1840; and the accused, being interro
gated on tho subject, so far from denying it, said
d I committed a fault of youth, and cruelly have I
expiated IL" To en inquiry as to what hearing
the introduction of such evidence could possibly
have on the ease, a distinguished lawyer answered
that "a French jury would only tolerate duels
among men of honor, and a man would forfeit his
privilege to commit murder if it was believed ho
had ever been a thief." Connected with this
criminal accusation was a civil suit for damages,
by the mother and nephews of the deceased. By
the French law, if a man wounds or kills another,
he is liable to pay the wounded person. if he lives,
or hie next of kin, if he dies, damages for the civil
injury done them. The criminal charge is sub.
wtted to a jury, of whom seven may return it ver
diet. The civil action, both as to law and fact, is
decided at the same time by the court, without the
intervention of a jury. The witnesses an , not se
lected by one party and the other, because their
testimony may be favorable to any particular VIM
of thecae°, but for the puraose of obtaining ail the
information that can bo had ; and berme it is that
the judge,
and not the counsel, proceeds to inter
rogate them with the sole design of establishing
the truth. Forty-six witnesses wore examined.
The first was Alexandre Slums. the celebrated and
popular writer of the day. Being asked, in the
usual form, what his profession was, ho answered.
"I should call myself a dramatic pont, if I was
net in the birth plaeo of Corneille. " This answer
touched the hearts of the audience, for Rouen was
the birth pine of the ,two brothers Pierre and
Thomas Corneille, and, although snore than two
hundred years hove elapsed since their birth, their
memory is still honored by the inhabitants. Du.
mas wee the common friend of both the parties
engaged in the duel, and, being informed that the
weapons selected were pistols, and knowing bow
unskilful Dujurier was, sent his son with bins to a
shooting gallery, where he was able to hit a Mark
as large as a man only twice in fourteen times!
But the testimony of Carnes wont strongly to the
respectability of the parties as men of honor!
' The duel grow out of something which occurred at
a dinner party given In one of the most celebrated
[ ea tablithmente at the Pallas Royal, at an expense
of Ilfty•flve francs ($11) per head.
The Prreldeut, on the trust, instructed the jury
that to kill a man in It dual is murder by the law
of France; that the fact of killing being proved by
the voluntary discharge of a loaded pistol, the de•
feculent was chargeable with the Ohne imputed
Ito him ;, but that the jury bad a right to declare
that it was done under alleviating circumstances,
4e. After ten minutes absence, the jury returned
their verdict in the following form : The foreman
rising, and being asked, " friths accusation true !"
answered, "upon my boner and my conscience,
before God and man, the declaration of the jury is,
No. The accused is not guilty."
The arguments then commenced in relation to
the did' cult for damages, whioh was tried by the
court alone without a jury, and the differenoe in
the result shows, what is very common in this coun
try in the trial of griming cases, a wide dittbrenee
of opinion between the court and jury. In the
criminal prosecution, the accused, as we have soon,
was acquitted by the jury; but in the idyll suit
the court awarded to the widow-mother and the
aerators of the deceased the sum of 20,000 francs
($4,000) damages, with costs, and ordered that
Bouvalion, in ease of default in payment, should
ni imprisoned two years.
We have already brought to the notice of the
wader one celebrated witness, Mr. Alexandre Cit•
Ms. Diet another witness was examined who has
anee gained an equal celebrity, although of a elm
meter somewhat different. Lola Monter, was ex
amined as 6 witness, . She was an article of tho
Theatre Port Ht. !stadia, a Spaniard, who spoke
Ponds imperfectly, and her connection with the
&hued may be amertained from the following
letter, which 'he wrote to her on the morning of
tie duels •
"MY LEAF. LOLA : I am going out to fight with
*obi. This explains vrhyl have slept alone, and
Way I do not come to see you this morning. I
have need of all my calmness. At two o'clock all
will be over. A thousand embraces, icy dear Lola,
my goad little wife, whom I love so much, and the
thoughts of whom will never leave me."
Mlle. do Mentes In her testimony spoke highly
of the kind nod amiable qualities of the deceased.
She had expressed a desire to be introduced to
Derivation and to go to the dinner, but Dujarter
pritively refused to allow it. She received the
letter, on her return from rehearsal, and huno
dlstely took measures to prevent the duel, but it
who too late. it I WAS," said she, in her testimo
ny, "'A SETTLE SHOT THAN DIVJARIER, AND
Bouvatrow WANTED SATISFACTION I WOOLD KAYE
FOOOHE Itl3l MYSELF." She received the corpse
from the carriage, and the emotion which ale then
experienced was still visa's in her testimony.
Dejarler evidently entertained a warm affection
for her, as, in addition to his farewell letter, be
WOW A Will, op the morning of the duel, leaving
her the principal part of his estate. ilia interest
in "La Presse glove was an item of considera
ble importance. It was owned by a joint stock
company, and was divided into tweuty-five shares,
each share selling, at the time of the duel, at
60,000 francs, ($12,000), and each share receiving'
an annual dividend of $1,478. Dninrier, by his
ability as a writer had raised the establishment to
i
this value, and n addition to his salary as chief
editor, owned eight shares, valued in the aggro
gate at $96,000.
The duel was fought' in March, 1815, in the Bole
de Bologna. liouvallon was the challenger, and,
at the first fire, shot his antagonist In the head,
and killed him instantly. The trial, as already
stated, took place on the 28th March, 1846; and
Lola Monter, after receiving the corpse from the
earrings, superintending the funeral, and making
the necessary disposition of her interests under the
will of the deceased, left Paris to forget the scenes
and the eireumstanees connected with the sudden
and violent death of her best and only friend.. The
trial itself possesses an interest with our profes
sional readers for the light which it throws on
French jurisprudence. But recent political events
in Bavaria have created an increased interest in
the ease for the view which it presents of the true
character of the extraordinary female who bas
since wielded the destinies of that kingdom.
The erinllagratlon of tome is remembered 1
ing perpetual infinity upon the name of Nero, while
the munificent rebuilding of the city by the tame
emperor is almost forgotten. It was the fate of
Maohlavalli, by the authorship of a single work, to
fix a stigma on his reputation which has outlived
all the_ great achievements of a long life of useful
ness. The story of the boy who drove a nail in the
wall every time he committed an evil deed, and
drew one out whoa he performed a good one, is
constantly illustrated in life. The good deeds may
bo More numerous thpn the bad ones, and the good
that men do may far otthreigh, In temporal im
portance, the evil of their lives; still, so contami
nating is the nature of crime, that its marks re

nails had been drawn, to maculate the reputation'
witch had else been spotless. Thus with Lola
Monte% : she possesses some traits of character and
Lae performed some Ms which would command our
admiratipa at once were it not for the cloud which
a grievous sin has thrown upon her character. But
let justice be done. even to her. The truth can
work no injury to any one.
After leaving Paris she made her next apperir
once upon the theatre at Munich. Her association
with the literary and political circle in which Da
jarier moved in Paris had made her familiar with
general literature, and with European polities in
partioular. The beauty and race powers of mind
which won the attachment of her talented pro
tector in Paris, made a rapid conquest of the
King of Bavaria. The masculine energy and cou
rage which prompted the effort to save the'life of
her friend by hastening to the duelling ground,
with the intention to stand in his place in the
deadly conflict, enabled her to acquire an ascend
ency over the minds of others. The extent of her
influence in Bavaria is shown by her success in
driving the Jesuits from power, remodeling the
eab:net of the king, an. , e recting all the important
measures of hie administration,
Leaving her improper relations with that sore
reign to the just judgment of an enlightened
public, and passing by her elevation to the rank
of Countess of Landsfelt, as a eircumetanee not
calculated to disturb the equanimity of plain re
publicans who place but little value upon patents
of nobility. it is due to the cause of justice that a
fair record be made of the public) acts of these
parties, so far as those nets have had alt influence
upon the kingdom under their control. Where
there is so much for morality to condemn it is diffi
cult to see aught to commend.

Landrathe system, under which the actual culti

and is no longer the trembling slave of despotism.

Whether from the dictates of his own altered mind
or through, the inftuonce of those counsellors, it is
not our purpose to inquire, but it is alleged that his
government degenerated into a low, petty tyranny,
under priestly influences, accompanied with a rigid
censorship of the press; and it became intolerable
to all but the favored few.

dance upon the 'theatre at Munich. Ifor beauty
and distinguished manners attracted the notice of
the King. On further acqnaintanco with her, he
became enamored of her originality of character,
her mental powers ; and of those bold and novel
political views which she fearlessly and frankly
laid before him. Under her counsels, a total revo
lution soon after took place in thillavarian system
of government. The existing ministry Wore dis
missed; now and more liberal advisers were cho
sen; the power of the Jesuits was ended ; Austrian
influences repelled, and a foundation laid for mak
ing Bavaria an independent member of the great
family of nations. These favorable results way
fairly be attributed to the talents, the energy, and
the influence of Lola Mentes, who received, in her
promotion to the nobility, only the usual reward
of political services. She became Countess of
Landsfelt, accompanied by an estate of the same
name, with certain feudal privileges and rights
over some two thousand souls. 11cr income,

cluding a recent addition from the King of 20,000

than £3,000 per annum. In addition to whieh, she
has private property of her own in the English or
French funds, a groat portion of which, it is said,
consists of shares in the Patois Royal at Paris, left
her by llujarler in his will.
It is alleged that relations other than political
exist between this extraordinary female and the
King of Bavaria. This, fact is too notorious to be
dented; and the conduct of the parties in this re
spect must receive the condemnation of every
friend to morality. The King is a married man,
sod nevertheless has improperly permitted himself
to become passionately attached to the Countess of
Laudsfelt. This attachment enabled her to work out
the great . polltleal changes which have taken place
in Bavaria ; and it is but just to acknowledge that
it is the political use she has made of her relations
with the King, and dot the Immorality of that con
nection itself, that has brought down upon her
most of the vehement censures which the defeated
party have bestowed from time to time, accompa
nied by the bitterest calumnies. The moral India , -
nation which her opponents displayed was, unfor
tunately, a more sham. They had not only tole
rated, but PATRONIZED, a female who formerly held
the equivocal position which the Countess of Lands
felt recently 'sold, because the former made her
self subservient to the then dominant party. give
even the Evil Ono his duo. Let even Lola Mentes
have credit for her talents, her intelligence, and
her support of popular rights. As a political cha
racter, she held, until her retirement to Switzer
land, un important position in Bavaria, besides
having agents and correspondents In various courts
of Europe. On foreign polities she has clear Ideas,
and has been treated by the political men of the
country as u ,substantivel power. She Always kept
state secrets, and could be consulted with safety in
oases In which liar original habits of thought ren
dered her of servluo Acting under her advice,
the King bad pledged himself to a course of steady
improvement in the political freedom of the peo
ple. Although she .wielded so much power, it is
alleged that abo never used it either for the pia
motion of unworthy persons, or, as other favorites
have done, for corrupt purposes; and there is rims
son to believe that political feeling influenced her
course, not sordid considerations.

TARIFF NOTION
For The Preec] .
DELAWARE Cornier, Nov. 18, 1857.
In sending the communication under the
above caption, which appeared in your valu
able journal of Monday last, raid so not with
the idea of carrying on a newspaper war with
persons whose views differed from my own,
much less with those who agree with me. My

"Franklin" gives quite a dissertation on
the banking question, a subject not touched
unon by me, becausei did not relate to the
points that I was discussing. He is no doubt
right in charging the crisiepartially to that as as it has had a great share in produc
ing it, but his argument is net at ail strength
ened by calling them t; rag mills" and other
hard names.
Local banks are useful in their way, and
are a necessary part of the great division of
labor in all large communities; but many and
important modifications and restrictions are re
quired in their management, and the nearer we
get to a specie basis the better; but I deny em
phatically that the " tariff and the currency is re
ally one question." The currency, as provided
for by the Federal Constitution, is as good as
any other on the face of the globe ; every.
other civilized power authorizes the issue of
paper money. It is a mistaken notion that
banks increase the capital of a country. We
are blessed with but one institution of the
kind In our country, and we certainly would
be no richer if we had a dozen of them. An in
crease in the number of our barns would not give
us one bushel more grain, or one ten more hay.
We make a mistake in placing gentleinen at
the bead of moneyed institutions who are en
tirely unfit for the duties which they under
take. Finance is a science, and it requires
men of more than ordinary minds to grasp it;
and as long as our Government avoids "tinker
ing" with tho business or finance of the people,
she will remain strong, and while we may now
and then have a tlnancial crisis, as all nations
before us have had, we will reap some salutary
lessons from it, and know how to conduct our
selves better in future.

The Woodman and Furness Affair—Letter from
Mr. IVoodmou,
(Prom the New Orleans belts, 10th.)
A CARD.—i have heretofore refrained from any
notice of the numerous publications, false and
libelous as some of them have been, respecting the
unfortunate relation which has existed between
Mrs. Caroline iVoodman and Mr. Gardner -Fur
ness, of New York. I should continue silent on
this subject were it not for the publication of the
scandalous proceedings by writ of . habit:A torpris
gotten up by this heartless viljain, before a judge
of the Supreme Court of New York, under the pre
tence of rescuing Mrs. W. from confinement, but
really with the view of again obtaining possession
of her person.
I believe that the letters exhibited at the trial
of this cause, and published in this evening's Del
ta, purporting to bo letters from Mrs. W. to Mr. F ,
aro forgeries. They are not characterized either
by her habitual language or style of composition.
If in her handwriting, they must have been pre
pared by Mr. F. or his attorneys, and copied by
her at their instance. So far as they report re
f/larks baring been made by me to Mrs ii'., they
are false.
It is difficult for one placed as I have been to
reconcile the exercise of a husband's legal autho
rity with that degree of humanity duo to a deceiv
ed and guilty wife. It was my misfortune that
ohs ehould have erred, but it would have been my
crime had I abanlioned her to the fate which, with
out the exercise of my legal authority, meet have
befallen her. I therefore took such steps as would
place her under the protection of her kindred so
soon as mine should be withdrawn. That I adopt
ed the only effectual course of effecting this cud,
the following statement NM show:
Oct the day after I had detected the guilty con
nection between Mr. F. and Mew W., at the'New
York Hotel, a friend, whose family were absent
from the oily, kindly received Mrs. W. beneath
his roof, where she enjoyed every comfort. Her
brother reached New York nest day, and had a
long Interview with her—her declaration to the
contrary in ono of the published letters referred to,
notwithstanding. She then disclosed the fact that
M r. Furness's presence at the New York Hotel, and
his having followed her up wherever she bad gone,
had in view the extortion of money from her. 'The
affidavit made by her a few days afterwards, and
now published seriatim in the Delta, will disclose
at once the villainy of Mr. F., and the sufferings of
his unhappy victim.
At this time she did not appear to realize her
position, and, although I urged her immediately to
accompany her brother to Mississippi, and remain
with her parents, she refused to go. Her brother
promised, however, to take ladies then under
his charge to 'Virginia, and then return for his
sister. Mrs. W, had been in the habit of taking
opiates to excels, and hating procured burden=
at this time, Indulged in such free use of it as to
be quite unmanageable, as sell as incapable of re
rdiaing her condition. After consultation with her
brother, I resolved. with his approval, and after
having advised her parents of my design, to place
her temporarily in a private asylum, where she
would receive medical treatment suitable to her
nervous derangement, and be protected from fu
ture contamination. ,What else could I have done?
I could not abandon her. I had kept her four
weeks at the homer my generous friend, greatly
to hie inoonvenience, and could not any longer
abuse thii privilege. The result has justified my
courts. Deprived of opiates, and properly treated,
she improved so much, that, upon consultation with
her physician, I promised her that she should be
sent,,to her parents in the month of November.
I saw her but once after the was placed at San
ford Hull, and then no allusion was made to the
past ; no word of reproach was made by me. She
expressed herself satisfied to remain until I could
send for her, according to my promise. All her
letters wore sent to her tether, soother, and bro.
Cher, and I consulted them. I had not only their
approval, but their gratitude.
On my return from New York, I visited her
' parents. in Mississippi, and made arrangements
with her brother to go to New York and bring her
to her parents. Ile accordingly left Mississippi on
the 24th of last month, previous to the commence
ment of Ills proceedings in New York, and without
nuy knowledge of there having been any inter
ference with his sister, and should have reached
Now York by the 4th of November. I have to-day
learned that she left New York with him on the
sth of November.
While I remained in New York, after placing
hor at Sanford Hall, her physioian visited the city
twice a week. I invariably called on him, and
received from him a note lrom her, in which she
ad Invariably acknowledged the kind treatment
ehe was receiving : I specially instrnoted him to
spare no expenee in making her comfortable, and
to permit her to ride out in a carriage when she
was desirous or doing so, but always in company
with an attendant. Having done this, I thought I
had performed my whole duty.
After I had lett New York, her self-cdnstliuted
protector, not satisfied with having destroyed her
peace and reputation, having for several yearskept
her in a state of distraction, and extorted from her
large rums of money by violence nod threats of
e xposure in a seriesof letters now in my possession,
endeavored to retrieve his character by affecting
to be the champion of her whom he had so•basely
injured. •
Had my aim been more successful at Now York,
his death would have been a just retribution and a
publio blessing ; but the greatest punishment, to
ouch a wretch is to have gained safety by flight,
and to.remain through life an object of contempt
and aversion anionic all thole who scorn depravity,

A Romance at Sea
[Prowl,* Cronies, Nov. ]7.1
The Secretary of State at Madrid hz.s communi
cated to theMittisterPlenipotentiary of thetnited
States in Spain the following declaration, trans
mitted through the Minister of Marine and made
before the captain of the port at Tarragona. by D.
Jose Boseh, captain of the Spanish brig - Jaeinto:
On the 22d of July last, at seven o'clock in the
morning, in north latitude Zti deg. S min. and west
longitude 34 deg. 30 min., being bound for Spain
from Now Orleans, after being out thirty-three
days . , I perceived a boat with people who were
waving a white handkerchief, and pulling in the
direction of my brig. Believing they were ship
wrecked, I instantly gave orders to bear down to
them, and, being side by aide, they told 1110 that
two days before, being out in pursuit of a whale,
they, during a squall, bad lost sight of their
barque, in which they bad left behind the wife of
the captain, who was the man that was speaking
to me, adding that she was in an interesting posi
tion, having with her besides a little boy and two
other persons.
A little further north I perceived two other
boats, all belonging to the American barque Alto,
Captain Thomas H. Lawrence, of New Bedford,
whence be had sailed 43 days before. The men of
the said boats, numbering in all eighteen. having
been taken on board, exhausted from fatigue, were
provided with food and clothing, and seeing the,
despair of the captain on account of the loss of his
family and his vessel in the midst of the sea, I re
solved at any hazard to & o in quest of them. The
stormy weather, the foreign idiom of the captain—
whieh did not permit me to clearly understand the
direction where the barque might bo found—the
time which had passed since they had last sight of
their ship, and my own obligations to continue my
course, after haring experienced thirty-three days
of bad weather—all of tbe:e powerful reasons did
not induce me to give tip my resolution of aiding
those unfortunate men and consoling them in their
affliction ; and trusting to Providence and my good
cause I steered to the north.
We passed the day without perceiving any ves
sel, and the night overtaking us without baring
attained our purpose, we pamed it with the utmost
vigilance, the captain being in a state of extraor
dinary prostration and anxiety, which increased
my determination to continue my enterprise. The
dawn of the 234 came on, and my vigilance was
redoubled ; atlo A. M., the watch at the masthead
descried a sail bearing X. N. E. 1 immediately
stood fur it, and, with a freshening wind, at eleven
o'clock I distinguished a bargee. I induced the
captain to go aloft. encouraging him and trying to
console hint in every possible manner, to see whe
ther he could make her out ; and at half•past
ven. 0,4 bad crowned my undertaking and ful
filled my wish—it was the barque Alto. The trans
ports, of Captain Lawrence were unbounded; ho
embraced me. and offered me a large amount of
money when he should get on board. which I re
fused, for I would not crown my act by accepting,
money.
When u. short distance from her, I lowered the
boats and carried the crew and the eaptoin to their
barque, where, in feet, I found a poor young lady,
with a babe in her arms, breathless. and In the
greatest agony.
The captain, after the first effusions of his 'joy,
repeated his offers, insisting upon my accepting
them, but which I refused, as before ; and having
received the benedictions of all on board, I re
turned to my ship to continuo my voyage.
Submarine Railway Exploration in Maine.
fere* ,Erootatle Tubular Diving.flell.
[From the New Tork Daily Times.]
The exploration of the two tracks of wave, of
the submarine railroad at Hunter's Point: was
made on Monday. in hlaillefert's new bell, with
entire success. The object of the exploration was
to ascertain whether the two large iron sheave,
placed upon the track two menses ago. were to
working order. To ascertain this, the .Bro,tatte
Tubular Diving-Bell was floated over the sheaves,
in eighteen feet water, and lowered by allowing
the air to escape from the outer shell. The expert-
Fent was witnessed by e number of engineers and
divers, with greet interest. As soon as the bell had
been lowered, the men entered it by the tube, the
upper portion of which remained above the surface,
and proceeded with their work. When they came
up, they said the light admitted through the tube,
enabled them to see clearly what was below, and to
do their work. What surprised those on shore
most, was their announcement of the fact that they
heard what was said on shore, one hundred and
fifty feet distant. The divers remained below five
hours, when they came out to dine, and then re
turned and remained five hours longer, euttingand
boring timbers. Having finished their work, they
Caine up again, anti spoke in high terms of the
success of the experiment. While in it, the ope
rator has at all times an opening through valved
mat-boles in the tube, to above the surface, to
which he can get out without external assistance,
or without requiring to move the bell. The area
of the bell used is 33 feet at the bottom, which af•
