A KIHT Or PERIL AND BUFFERINO. QuaiL'tlhsj flying correspondent of the Bostoa Museum, in a Utter dated at Caatine, Ma., givea the fol (owing account of the hip trreck of, a itinrinet and hia betrothed bride : On Monday night last, the iSrii instant du. ting the sale, there was a vesael wrecked on the rocka but a few milea distant from this Tillage, (Caatine) and every pereon on board, consisting of one lady and two gentlemen came very near perishing with cold. H The facts are as follow '.The veel was owned by our worthy friend, Henry Butters, Esq , of Haverhill, Mass., who hnd employed a man to go as captain, and conduct the busi ness of the vessel it being a coaster, as well as his own judgment should dictate, and the advice of his employer. This man, however not attending to his duty to the satisfaction of Mr. Butters, he received a letter at one of these sea-const towns, informina him that his services nfter the delivery of the vessel at a stated port would be dispensed with, as a man more attentive to his business would be found to fill the station. On rcceivinjj this somewhat unwelcome in formation, the captain quitted the vessel, and left the mate and one man before the mast to deliver her at the designated port as best they could. If the weather had bieti fair, and the wind favorable, they probably would have been enabled to have managed the ves sel with but very little or no difficulty, and the mate, no doubt, would have had a nice happy time of it, as a yonnsr lady to whom he was engaaed was on board, on her way down to the home of the parents of her affi anced lover, where the happy couple were to be married. ' But the fates had not been consulted, and they were intent on revenue. Bei-ig out of Ihe Bay, Monday eveninn, they were driven about at the mercy of the waves and winds, until about eleven o'clock, when with a fear ful crash, the vessel struck the rocks, and in. lantly filled. The younsr lady having retired for the night, was only enabled to spring from her berth, clap one blanket in her hand, a-d save her life by rushing cm dck. Tho cold was now most intense, and the entire deck of the vessel, fore anil aft, was covered with one hard sheet of ice, and that, becoming thicker and thickcr--for the merciless wave were every moment sweeping across the deck and carrying away every light, moveable object into the angry snigintr ocean. All hopes of aviug the vessel were lost, and the poor, tin. fortunate vii;tim of the merciless storm, hold- ins; fast to the taliiail, with their dollies eve ry few minutes covered with a fresh supply of the briny element, became aware that unless 10 me prompt and immediate method wa tdopled to protect themselves until trioiuiiip, 'mm the penetratim: cold, a certain and dread 'ul death would he th"ir fate. Consequently they all laid down together, puckiug them elves as close a possible, with the young In ly in the centre, and covered themselves with the blanket which she had wrapped trnnnd her on springing from the berth. It equired but a lew minutes for the wollnn Blanket to become coaled, and the poor un. "urtuiiale sufferers to b encased with one eir ire thick sheet of ice, which, dismal as it up. neared, whs unquestionably the only thing 'hat saved their lives. The next morning, at six o'clock, the sailor )roke out from his icy den, climbed over the ressel's side, dropped into the water, it being ow tide, and walked ashore ; but the mo. netit ho came upon dry land, the cold over jo we red him, and he sank helpless upon he ground. Persons living in this vicinity, having just low discovered that :i vessel was wrecked ipon their shorn hastened down to ascertain he particulars. Finding the half-fiozen sai or lying upon the ground, part of their number -eturried to tho house with him in their arms s'hile the olheis proceeded to the vessel, nud leaiched for other sufferers, but finding none, hey all relumed to ascertain (if Ihe sailor :ould yet speak) the particulars of the ship wreck. After being rubbed in cold water tor nearly an hour, he was siillicienlly restor ed to bo able to inform hi rescueis that there were yet two mine persons in the ves sel, mid that they would bu found on the Jeck under a sheet of ice. The gentlemen returned to the vessel, oroke up the sheet of ice, as directed, and wind uudei neath, locked in each other's irms, the apparently I lie lost foims of the rule and his atfiauced bride ! The bodies were warmly wrapped in jlankets, conveyed to the house, and after learly an hour's proper cuie, biouyht to life tnd consciousness. They are now- at the house of the mate's parents, and the physicians think they wilj ihortly entirely recover from the almost un precedented endurance which they suffered. May Heaven bless them, say we, and may ha mate so con duct himself in after life, that his affectionate and confiding sweetheart nay never have to regret her journey East with her affianced lover. Lifting a Living Mm. One of the most sxtraordinary pages in Sir David Biewster's otters on "Natural Magic," is an experiment n which a heavy man it raised with the ;reatest facility, when he is lifted up the in itant that his own lungs, and those of the oersona who raise him are Inflated with air. Thus, the heaviest person in the party lies down upon two chairs, hit legs tnppoitud by me and hit buck by tho other. Four per. ions, one at each leg and each shoulder, then ry to raise him. The person to be raised ;ivet two signals by clapping hit hands. At .be first signal he and tho lifters draw a long full breath and when the inhalation it com pleted, or the lungs filled, the second signal it given for raiting him from the chairs. To bit surprise and that of hit bearert ha rises frith the greatest facility, if no heavier '.ban a feather ! Jut Pkincc d t MotcowA and hit lady aro giving aomo ooocasion for scandal.

Hu resided in lh family of Mr. Grnnl and his descendants, un til the time of his death, it period of fifty five years The early history of the decease! is r.ot without interest, nr.d leads us back to the littio when slavery existed in Pennsyl vania. Isaac, a broiher, two sisters & parents weie purchased by Mr. Grant, ubont the year I7!)C, in what is now Columbia county. They were the property of a Mr. Roseuberry, nnd were sold us a part of his effects, at his death. Thu scene at the sale was a most trying one to the poor slaves. A gentleman, who want ed them for the Southern rnaiket, was bid ding against Mr. Grant, and their fate, for a lime, was uncertain, nnd when it was an. nonnced that Mr. Giant had become the pur. chaser, the poor creatures were almost frau. lie with joy. Mr Grant set them all free at the age of 21 years, but Isaac would never leave the roof of his master and benefactor, and remained with his descendants until the day'of his death, a faithful, honest and trust worthy servant. He was wise in his clinic, for he never knew what it was to bu in want, and was kindly attended to in sickness and in health. Ed. Am. Hew Advertisements.
