MI i 7 !7AVldta .Catas.: . , ' 6 !., Y' , 'At . 4 . ^: ~ . By & arrival o ' steamer a few days back, We received intern . . ~.: e_ of the loss of the ship John Rutledge,_ t l ,it . sed by coming into collision with ice-berg= , , nd about one hundred, and fifty perished. 0", y a single person; as 'far as known; has be v . saved, and ho was so far reducekby st , • 'don and cold, that ho was barely able to rel. e the . outlines of the terrible fkte of his compani. .s. r .On the 20th of , binary, the ship received such damage from the ice that all efforts to save it became hopeless. ife-boats were lowered, 'and the wildest conful 'on prevailed among the passengers and crew. I he boats were instant ly filled, and the ship su k soon after she was abandoned. The heavy s. a soon separated the several boats, and Mr. Nye; the only living survivor of one of the bolts was picked up al -Most senseless'and entirely powerless, with four 'dead bodies in the boat. The sufferings of his companions from the time of the catastrophe up to the time of his rescue, cannot be descri bed ; One by dne they diet' from exposure and starvation, and had Nye been found a few hours later, he too, the only survivor would 6ve shared the same fate. To convey an idea of the suffering in this boat, we give a portion ore history as pub • lished in the N. Y. Tribune. \ "Shortly after leaving the SI a storni passed over them, accompanied by th )der and light ning. The passengers lay huclAd in the mid dle of the boat and scarcely a won was inter .. changed between them. The light 'lig revealt: ed the pallid features of a company .110 knevo not but that the next advancing Wlt'e mightl, speedily hasten them to the gloom_ f what seemed surely impending death. Thus passed the night. Daylight revealed to them an open, boundless sea, with nothing the ep could rest upon but an unbroken expanse of cater. On the opening of this day a council wai held, and it ' wns determined •to be sparing if the very meagre supply of prctvisions and water on board the boat. A single cracker was voted as a day's rations for each one, and a mouthful of water. To in. sure adherence to this latter lindial ion, it was agreed to sock the water through the cork of the demijohn. In partaking of this first frugal repast, and the sucking at the demijohn cork, there was sonic Merriment felt by a few, at the novelty and comicality of their,t4tuation. This merriment was destined to a sip( change. The weather had moderated consiOerably from the evening previous, and (here Wm. less wind ; the atmosphere still continued misty, however. The boat was permitted to drift all day. Everybody -kept looking for a sail, but night came without any sail having appeared. At night the boat got into some ice but, by rifling to the wind- Ward, they soon fetched the . inselves into an un obstructed sea. They pulled all night, with but little intermission. The eighth day opened With only increasing sufferings from hunger, thirst and cold . It rain ed, but nearly all were too week to catch. any of the descending moisture. Mr. Nye caught some of the rain in an oilcloth cravat, which was partaken of with the wildest imaginable frenzy. But there was not enough to satisfy their burning thirst. Solt water was drank by every one, excepting Mr. Nye. His not drink ing salt water he conrliders the only thing that preserved his life. • During this day four pas sengers and the boatswain died. On the morn ing of the 20th of February, Mr. Nye was the only one of the original thirteen on board the boat that remained alive. He had not the • strength to throw • overboard his dead compan ions. He managed', however, to erect an oar in his boat, with two shirts and a handker chief placed on the top as a signal. At about 1 P. M. he saw a sail advancing from the south. The sail turned out to be the packet ship Ger mania, from Havre, from on board of which the small boat, with its now 'sole living occu pant was fortunately seen. Captain Wood, of the Germania, ordered C. H. Townsend, chief officer, to lower a boat, and with four seamen proceed to the boat, which they did. and took off Mr. Nyc, and found three dead bodies besides that of Mr. Atkinson.— These were also taken out, and after proper care the' four were decently buried from the boat. Mr. Nye was nearly exhausted from his continuous exposure and deprivation of food and drink. His feet were also frozen nearly up to his knees. Captain Wood, upon hearing Mr. Nye's statement, took immediate measures to find thitemaining missing boats. They lay to till night, and hoisted signal lights, but nothing was seen of them. It is very possible they may have been picked up by other vessels. The Germania arrived in New York on Sunday even ing, with Mr. Nye on board. He is doing as well as can be expected. He is a young Irian, aged 21 years,. This was his second voyage to sea.' His parents reside at Ncw Bedford ; and have been telegraphed to come on to this city. [I:7"A DEAD MAN COME TO LIFT.-TllO Boston Traveller tells of an Irishman who was laid out innanover street, a few days since, on the sup position that he was dead. The Overseer of the Poor of the ward was applied to for a coffin at the expense of the city, and having obtained from the applicants the time and cause of death, age, residence, names of parents, time and place of burial of deceased, he tilled out one of the usual blanks, signed it, and sent it with the appli cants to the City Registrar, with an order for the coffin. On carrying this grave article of fur niture to the house, the supposed dead man was found sitting up in bed, with a woman (his wife) in, a chair at his side, greeted his eyes. It appeared, on explanation, that after-the fu neral arrangements had all been mad 0. the dy ing man suddenly revived and begail l "to grow better very fast, with some prospect of ulti mate recovery ; so that all the preparations for a wake and funeral wore hastily abandoned. .(I:7•The best way to treat slander is to loave it.itiptio and say it. ri - ABLERWAN SLAVER OA.VronEn.—iThe Amer ican schooner. Maria E. Smith, formerly a packet ituniinglietweentoston and Halifax, left Boston for the coast of Africa some time Fast autumn. Attenipts were made to detain her on suspicion of her being a slaver, but she ran away from the revenue cutter, after she had been seized by the United States Marshal. By way, of 'England we now learn that she was captured by the Brazilian brig-of-war Olinda, while attempting to land 320 negroes, which , she had brought from the coast of Africa. Thoi Olinda took the schooner into Bahia de todos i Santos, where the commander and crew, all American, were ironed and locked up in the jail. When the schooner left the coast of Africa she had on board 500 blacks, but they were so d closely packed on board, totally naked, and so badly fed during. the voyage, that 180 died and ! were thrown overboard, and of those landed at Bahia 04 died a few hours afterwards. The survivors were immediately fed and clothed, and will be taken care of until their ultimate destination is resolved upon. "' - 'n:r:moits.—The man who is accus tomed to work at one branch of business b 8• comes habituated to its very defects, and, in a measure, insensible or blind . to them. On the Aother hand, a stranger to that business, if of an ingenious turn of mind, is more ready to notice such defects, and to plan and labor to make improvements. This is perhaps not a general rule, but it has happened in very many install ces. Arkwright was a barber, yet he invented a most valuable improvement in cotton spinning machinery. Whitney was not a maker of cot ton machines when ho invented the saw-gin. Cartwright the inventor of the power-loom, was ;n Episcopalian clergyman. • Forsyth, the in 1/2entor of the percussion lock for firearms, was a Presbyterian minister; and the ltev. E. Eurt, of Manchester, Conn., was the inventor of the first American check loom. We could pment a long list of inventors who have made valuable improvements on machines entirely out of their own line of business. 117 - ItEMAIIKABLE ABSTINENCE FROM FOOD.- Samuel Ikely, who resides about two and a half miles from Spartnpolis, in this county, has ' totally abstained from food for filly-seven days !. and lie may yet survive several days. For some time he has been in a rather melancholy mood. and about two months ago lie refused to cat. and since that time has not taken anything except water ; and strange to say, he is still alive, but reduced to a mere skeleton. Neither physicians or friends can induce him to' take any nourishment. Ile declares lie eau swallow nothing, though he does every now and then take a drink of water. Ile will doubtless per sist iu this delusion until he starves to death. Ile is a respectable farmer, about forty one years of age, and has a wife and six children.

Its powers in many instances seems to be really 'miraculous, and especially in the radical and permanent cure of some of the most terrible forms of disease with which man kind are afflicted. Scrofula, which seems en tirely to baffle the skill of Physicians, has been cured in many instances by only a row DOT- Tr.s of this invaluable compound. Syphilis, another of the most awful scourges, has been cured by Carter's Spanish Mixture in over 500 cases. It acts specifically on the Liver and secretions, and is the best alterative or blood purifier yet discovered. It has gained reputa tion wherever known which cannot be ap proached by any former effort of science, and it is prescribed by physicians and testified to by ma ny of the most manna Public men of the coun try, many of whom say they consider it a matter of duty to make its merits generally known, and corditilly.recommend it to the afflicted. 1111 eat, Jontt B.

Joseph Clowell, Allentown, Agent for Lehigh Co. youli attention is re,spectfully solicited to the nbove method of Roofing, noir much used in Plain&lphin and vicinity, mid which has been exten sively in use in many of the eiticl of the West, during more than eleven years past, during which time it has been tested under every variety of circumstances, and we confidently offer it to the public as a mode of Roofing unobjectionable in every important particular,. while it combines, in a greater degree than any other roof in use, the valuable requisites, of cheapness, du rability, and security against both fire and water.— This is rapidly superseding the use of all other kinds of roofs, wherever it has been introduced, giving gen. end satisfaction, and is highly recommended by ale who have tested its utility. These roofs require an inclination of not more than ono inch to the foot, which is of great advantage in race of fire, and for drying purposes. They are offered at a price consid erably less than any other roof in use, while the . [Lumina of material saved, which would otherwise ho used in extending up the walls and framing for steep roof, often makes a still farther, important re duction in the cost of building. Gutters may bo fiirincil of the same material as the roof, at much less' expense than any other. In case of defect or injury, from any cause, there is no roof so easily repaired. The materials being mostly non-conductors of heat, 110 roof to so cool in summer, or so warm in winter: Those wishing to use our roof, should give the rafters a pitch of about one inch to the foot. For further in formation apply to Joseph MIMI, at Allentown, our agent for Lehigh and Carbon counties, who It pre. pared' to execute all orders nt short notice. 11. M. WARREN /2 Co.'
