DEAR,BIIt:—As one of the editors of the New Orleas Advocate a few years since I occasionailtvisited the churches of the col orede peopl connected with our denomina tion to repot the sermons of their preach ers. Part f these I , never published.— Cimelvere excellent; some of course were hardly:worth publishing;, all were peculiar: Your readcrs may be interested in one of these ,productions; I therefore, furnish the folloWing—one of ,the best Rev. Scott Chinn, thepreacher, formerly a slave, was a man'abone lifty-flye years of age. He was born in Kentucky, and sold south with 'his wife when -quite a young man. He was allowed to preach among his own people before leaving his native State. In Louisiana he continued in bondage until set free by the Union armies. ' He, was •liv ing at this time in the city of New Orleans. He in;iprove'd the opportunities there offered of learningl to read And:write, and though so old became quite a fluent reader. He was' ,a ready speaker, having a good coin- :mend of language. His imagination was his illustration often very N 4 and original; 'and being intensely in earnest, he , was what all would 'pronounce eloquent.— He seemed to feel, however, that his preach ing was doing no good unless a great sensa tion was . produced in his congregatiPn. was often, ff net generally, gratified in this direction, fUr there were not only earnest. responses to his remarks, but before he closed his iinpassioned appeal s from two or three to or eight of the more:c2s.cw"' 4tuung- cuitim-voruulr nis congrega tion would also give way to their feelings and commence jumping, which they would continue u til nearly exhausted.

The following statement was furnished the correspondent of the New York Herald by Captain Tyson',who was in command of the party of twelve men, two' women, and five children, the youngest only eight months old, recently picked up from an iceberg by the steamer Tigress, as ►mentioned by Us last week: "Oa the 24th of August, 1871, we left Tessinsack and weutthrough Smith's - Sound. We succeeded in getting as far north as lat itude 82:16, when we returned and wintered at Polaris Bay; latitude 81:88, longitude 61:- 44. We were frozen up until the sth of September. On the 10th, of October Capt. Hall started on a sledge journey north, and retlarned on the 24th, when he was 'taken sick, and died on the Bth of November.— He was buried on the 11th. The attack that carried him off was said to be apoplexy. ' .. We passed the winter at Polaris Bay. On the Bth of June, 1872, we attempted to reach the north with two boats. We hauled our other boat my shore, and returned overland on the Bth of July. We started for home on the 12th of August,, and on the 15th were beset with ice.in latitude 80:02. -We drifted front- there down to latitude 77:35; when we encountered a heavy southwest gale, the ship being under heavy pressure. On the night; of the 1511 i :we commenced landing provisions, &e.,.pn the , ice, the - vessel.; being reptatedieaking Very badly at times. We continuettland,ing provisions for two or three hourS, WhetitheAnessure ,ceased., went on board the vessel mid, asked the sail ing Master if :the 'vessel was making any more -water than usual. He, reported that she was not. I then went to the pumps and ascertained that She was not making any more thau,she had been doing all summer. "I went on the ice.again, and shortly af ter it began to Creek, and in a few minutes afterward brokeln,niany pieces. The vessel broke from her fastenings, and was soon lost to sight hi the darkness and storm. , . , "On the brolteh','lce Were most of- our provisions to stist a ip the party thrOugh thewinter, winter, and seeing nothing of the vessel we attempted to reach the shore, in hopes of finding natives to assist us in living through the Winter. 'Getting ;about half way . to the shore" With our heavily laden boats, our progress became hard by the driftinglee, and I was compelled to haul on the ice again. " At this time I succeeded in saving four teen cans of penimican, eleven_. and a half bags of bread, ten dozen one and-two pound cans of meat and soup, fourteen hams, one small bag ,of ,cheeolate,' • weighing twenty p. = s some Musk px.skins, a few blank ets, anu • • • ritles,, and ahundant anunu ,nition.'

The ice being exceedingly rough we stove both boats.' We succeeded on, the Ist of November in - getting about half way to shore. Night came on us, and the weath er was very, ,stormy. In the morning the ice was broken, and we were drifting south ward very fast. We saw no more land-for' many days, bad weather continuing all through the month of November. 'We built snow houses and made ourselves as comfort able as wecould. -We were ten white men, two ItlsOuimanx, two women, and five chil dren In all. We, succeeded in killin a few seals, whieh' furnished us with lig t, and also fuel with which to warm our girt - a ty, al lowance of food 'through the darkness of the arctic winter. In the latter part of Feb , ruary we lived principally upon birds,-,and in March commenced to catek'sealS. Thro' that Month we:supported ourselves'on' bear and seal flesh, wasting neither skin nor en trails. We collected enough food in this way to, last us until the middle of May, had -we not been driven to sea by a strong west erly gale in- the latter part of March; our floe-piece beipgithen reduced froM five miles in circumference to about twenty yards in diameter. Wo le.ft, the piece on the Ist of April, and abandoned nearly all of our meat, a large amount of ammunition, clothing, skins, and other articles, taking a portion of, the meat in the boat, which we were after, ward obliged to throw overboard 'on an. count of the boat being so deeply laden. I regained the outer edge of the pack of ice on the 3d of April, and succeeded in get ting a little farther in on the pack. On' the 4th a Leavy northeast gale set in, a heavy' sea running tinder , the icc which broke it in small pieces, so that we had to live on small pans,,as we could not put the boat out, nei ther could 'we find seals for food, and we. were reduced almost to'starvation. ... : " On-The 21st of April we sighted a polar bear. Every person was ordered to lie down and imitate the seal; while the two Esqiii maux(secreted thenitelves behind apiece of ice, enticing the -bear near enough Po us, to kill him. ' A few days afteethis got our boat in the water and worked outs -way west and southwest, an continued to work every opportunity to the. westward, in hopes of reaching the Lab ndor coast and getting temporary relief. Ye were picked up by the steamship TigrCss, Captain Bartlett, en the 30th of April, in latitude 53:35 , n0rth, longitude 55 west, (linear Wolf Island, and about forty miles from land. The Polaris is without .boats, having lost two in trying to get north in the spring of 1872." The Tigress fell in 'wit* _ the ratty in a dense fog, and providentially struck ' the very 'floe on which they were, otherwise they must have perished. They all seem tolerably well. Captain Tyson complained of swelled legs and feet, but nothing serious is the matter with him. When they left the Polaris all on board were in good health. In reference to the way in which the Po laris got. away from the party which was rescued from oll' the iceberg, Captain Dr son states That he felt little anxiety at Mt, thinking she would soon come to their re lief. " I set my colors," he said, "as she steamed down along the shore, but the ves-' sel was soon lost to sight in the bend of the land, and behind what I took to, be Nor thumbeiilland' Island. The piece of ice I was on commenced drifting southward as the wind hauled to the northeast, opening a little bay to the northeast of Northumber lund.lsland. 1 saw the vessel in the harbor there; her sails were furled, and no smoke was issuing from her smokestack that I could see: I then attempted to bring my boatstcross the floe in an easterly direction, hoping to find water and reach the shore.— I succeeded in dragging one boat across, took the water, and attempted to reach the shore some distance below the vessel. "We whr u t i lmi n grilcknAveg fast, and the gale nu- - greuc - violemie from the northeast, aria - ilus.--: , a wry - East and drifting'. I was driven back on-the ice again, and compelled to haul my boat out. Night closed on us, and we were carried to the southwest. In the morning we were about thirty miles southwest of where the ship wentin harbor. A heavy sea was run ning, which broke up my floe piece, sepa rating us from six bags of bread and ono boat. I saw a vessel under steam and can vas rounding a point to the northwest.— Thinking she would come to •our relief, I gave myself no extra anxiety, but soon we were doomed to disappointment, and from that time until the Tigress rescued us we never got a glimpse of the Polarii." 4 . The Yoling Hero. The young hero is 4 thin, pale-faced boy of ten, whom a wortifiess father-in-law had smuggled on board a liiverpool steamer, and who is discovered thiee days after stowed away among the ,cargo. The mate disbe; lieves the boy's story, suspecting that sonic one of the crew is in the secret, and that the lad lies in order to screen him. Here is the test to which the youngster is subjected, as related by the second • engineer of the ship:' Now, my lad," sayi the mate in a hard, square kind of voice that made every word seem like flora' a stone' into a 'wall, " ybp see that 'ere rope? Well, I'll give you tea• minutes to confess; (he took out his watch and held it in his hand); " and if you don't tell the truth afore the time's up, I'll hang you like a dog!" • The crew all stared at one another as if they couldn't believe their ears, (I didn't be lieve mine, I can tell ye,) and then 'a low growl went- among 'em like a wild beast awakin' out of a nap. 1" Silence, there!' shouts the mate in a voice like the roar of a nor'easter. " Stand by to run for'ard!" and with his own hands he, puts the:noose-around tlic boy's neek,-.-- The little eller never flinched a bit; but them Wet some among the sailors (big, strong felkcrs as could lia felled an ox) as shook like leaves in the wind. ' 'As for me, I bethought myself my littkicurly-haired lad at home, and how it 'tad be if any one was to go for to hang him ; and at the very, thought on't I tingled all ever, , and my dn geFs clincihed themselves as if they was a grippin' somebody's throat. I clutched hold of a handspike, and held ittehind myL back 01 ready. - "Tom," whispers the chief engineer to me, " d'ye think he really means to do it?" " I don't know , " says I trough my teeth; " but if he does, he shall go first, if 1 swings for , it!" I've been in many an ugly serape in my time, but 1 never felt 'art as bad as 1 did then. Every, minute seemed as long as a dozen; and -the tick of the mate's watch reg'lar pricked my ears like a spin. The men were very quiet, but: there wall a pre cioils ugly look on some of their faces, and I noticed that three or four op 'em kePti edgin ) foeard to where the mat . i o`as stand inV in a way that meant misc f. As for 141•mado up my mind t if' he did go for to hang that poor little chap, I'd kill him on the spot and take my chanoc. • "Eight minutes!" says the mate, his great deep voice breakin' In on the silence like the toll of ry funeral bell. "If yov've got any -thin" to confess, my • lad, you'dc,best out with it ; _for yer time's nearly up." "I've told you the truth," answers the boy, very pale, but as firm as ever. " I gay my prayers, please?" "The mate nodded; •and down goes the poor little chap on his knees, (with that in fernal* rope about his neck all the lime,) and puts up his poor little hands to pray. I couldn't make out what he said, (fact, my head was in-sich a whirl tliat I'd hardly ha' knowed my own name), bt►t he bound God heard it, every word. Then he ups on his feet; again, and puts his hands behind him, and says to the ivate, , quite quietly, " I'm ready!" And then, sir, the mate's hard, grim face broke up all to once; like I've seed the ice in the. Baltic. He snatched up the boy in his arms, and kissed hin►, and bust.out a•cryin like a child; and I think there war'nt one of us as did'ut do the same. - I know /did, for one.—Erery ttunlay. tat 5l terter to his tiN • sta. . sent of love upon t • • 11 "I should be stationary," ;hould you.be, dearest," said Pe ' lam "if I was to presathe ling-max lips?"
