The Rescue at Sea.
rpWENTY years ago one of the flerc
X est tempests swept the Atlantic sea
board. Commencing in the tropics it
circled the North Atlantic, and for two
days raved madly,scatterlng devastation
and disorder in its track. In the height
of this terrible tempest the Central Amer
ica foundered, and the papers for weeks
after teemed with accounts of the mar
velous escapes of some of her passengers
and crew. Among her passengers was
a Mrs. Berry and her little girl, the lat
tera slender, golden-haired beauty, a
great favorite with all on board.
Mrs. Berry, a quiet, resolute, little
woman of 30, or thereabouts, was the
wife of a sea captain, trading between
New York, Sau Francisco and China.
His ship had undergone extensive re
pairs eight months before at Ban Fran
cisco, and Mrs. Berry had gone on there
to enjoy the society of her husband.
After his ship had sailed, Mrs. Berry
had lingered on the Pacific coast to en
joy the delightful climate and agreeable
manners of the people there. She was
now returning to New York in the Cen
tral America, to meet her husband, who
had sailed from China and was about
due in New York.
The splendid steamer had a full com
plement of cabin and steerage passen
gers, and many thousand dollars in
treasure. Her Human freight were
looking forward to a speedy termination
of the voyage, and on the noon of the
day my story commences the good ship
was speeding proudly over the billows
She was following the Gulf Stream, and
was somewhere off the Carolina coast,
where the wind veered to the eastward
and commenced to increase in violence.
ai me aneruoon wore away the sea
became rough, and by nightfall the ship
labored and plunged In the big waves
that sometimes flooded her forward
deck.
During ine nigut tne engines were
slowed, the ship made snug, and the
usual means adopted to ensure the safety
of the steamer. By daybreak the gale
was a regular howling hurricane, the
wind had shifted north, and now roared
through the rigging with that peculiar
sound that baffles description. ,
Daylight showed a sad condition of
affairs ou board tbe steamer.. Broken
bulwarks, tbe clanking sound of the
pumps, revealed the story of the night
It was found that tbe pumps did not
prevent the water rising In the hold,
and It was evident to the officers that If
the storm continued the water would
reach tbe fires.
In view of that fact, a hurried consul
tation was held, and it was resolved to
stick to the ship as long as possible, in
hope that some outward bound vessel
would come to their aid. The day slow
ly moved away, and all hopes of rescue
vanished. The sun at lost sunk In ft
dark, glooms-looking cloud that lay
along the western horizon. The wind
had shifted Into the northwest in fact
was going around the compass; as it
always does in a hurricane and the
sinking steamer, about in tbe vortex,
was fast breaking up. Great broad bil
lows were surging past the doomed ship,
and all around, as far as the eye could
reach (ay spread out a tossing wilder
ness of water.
At last the firemen were driven from
their posts, and the fires went out and
the engine at last stopped. Borne of
them tried to lay her to with a storm
trysail, but it was blown out of the bolt
ropes, with ft report like a cannon.
Then the first and second officers
made preparations to escape. On the
gallows, Just over the quarter deck, were
secured two fine metallic lifeboats. The
first officer cleared one of them away,
and succeeded in swinging It over to
leeward. Bending two seamen into it
to keep it from being dashed against the
ship's side, he turned to the crowd of
panic-stricken passengers, and, taking
Mrs. Berry, deposited her in the bottom
of the lifeboat safely. As Mrs. Berry
fell into the boat, the steamer rolled
heavily to port, when she rolled back
again Mrs. Berry's daughter was drop
ped into her lap. Just forward of the
lifeboat the third officer was lowering a
large launch, and as the mate dropped
Mrs. Berry's child, the ship swung
heavily to port, and at the same time
pitched violently forward.
The heavy launch swung backwards
and came In contact with the lifeboat,
and the shock tumbled the two seamen
overboard. In confusion a blundering
lubber on deck cast off the line that
held the lifeboat, and the next passing
wave swept Mrs. Berry eight fathoms to
leeward.
As tbe boat rose on the crest of a mon
ster wave the woman was seen standing
with disheveled hair and out stretched
arms, wildly appealing for aid. But,
alas ! she was beyond all but her Heav -
enly Father's aid.
For a few moments the slender woman
in the boat was a prey to the wildest
emotions, but in those few moments
the boat had drifted from under the
shelter of the steamer, and when it was
again borne up on the crest of a tower
ir.g wave the fierce blast of the hurricane
flung the boat broadside on, and 'almost
filled it with water. Her little girl clung
to her feet with convulsive energy, and
looked up at her with white face and
eyes open wide with horror, and then
the boat slid down, down into the black
abyss that seemed peopled with the hor
rors of the grave. '
Before the boat mounted another
wave, the sight of the child's despair-
lug features fired the brain of the moth
er, and Bhe instinctively grasped the
rudder and turned the boat's head
around.
Hour after hour the boat drove before
the huge billows that raved and hissed
behind It, and during that time who
can judge the horrors of her situation V
Around her a broad expanse of tossing
water, and above her the black threaten
ing sky, where the blinding lightning
played and the deep thunder crashed,
and yet, with bated breath and horror
Btricken face, she sat at the rudder and
guided the boat over the foam-flecked
billows.
Mrs. Berry had acquired in the society
of her husband a sufficient knowledge
of nautical matters to know what to do
now, and in her feeble way she did the
best she could have done. Bhe kept the
boat before the wind and ffea, expecting
every moment to be swallowed up by
the waves.
I will now change the scene to the
eastern edge of the Gulf, and on board
a trim British frigate that was snugly
lying to, and waiting for moderate
weather to make her destination, which
was one of the ports in the Bermuda
isles.-
The watch on deck were discussing
the unusual severity of the weather.
and, clustered under the weather bul
warks, keen-eyed watchers were station
ed at the lookouts, and the officer of the
deck was pacing the deck and occasion
ally thundering, orders through bis
trumpet.
The gray-headed captain was on deck
too, because tbe frigate was In the track
of the West India traders, and the Ber
mudas lay under his lee, so be peered
anxiously to the wind'ard. Suddenly
it prolonged and blinding flash lit up the
sea, and as tbe tbuuder rolled and crash
ed overhead, ft hoarse voice shouted
My God, there's a bout going by, and
two women in it."
Tbe captain, standing on the horse
block, also saw the boat, as it surged
past the quarter, and he descended
from his place of observation and Joined
the officer of the deck.
"Mr. Rlsley," said the captain,
"there's a boat Just goqe by ta the lee
ward, and I want you to send two of
your cleverest fellows to look out for it.
I'm going to pay off, and pick the
women up if. I can. We never can
lower a boat in this sea, and t want you
to rig whips on the lower yards, snatch
the bright, and make a bowline. Big
the whips well out on the lee yards, and
bear a hand. Now then, lay aft there,
the watch," and the old captain took
the trumpet from his officer, and thun
dered to the helmsman to put the wheel
bard up.
" Square the fore and main yards I
Haul down the foretopmast staysail.
Now then I steady I"
'All ready with the whips," screamed
the fore and main top men.
'Very well, now then, Mr. Rlsley,
bend ou a light line to the bowlines, and
detail three of your best men to go Into
the bowlines and be ready to jump Into
the boat when we overhaul it. The
crossjack yard whip will stand by
should the others miss the boat. Are
y on all ready V"
"Aye, aye, sir."
" Very, well, stand by those whips,
all of you."
' Boat dead ahead, sir," came from
tbe port cathead.
'Steady at the wheel, steady, my
man, make no mistake now."
" Here they come ! Stand by !" shout
ed the man forward, and at the same
moment the indistinct form of the boat
drifted by the lee cathead.
The captain, standing on the ham
mock nettings, and clutching a ratline
in tbe forward shrouds, leaned out to
catch sight of the coming boat, and as it
drifted past the catheads, his voice rang
out high above the tempest :
"Now, my men, jump!"
Just then the boat sank away into ft
huge cavern, and tbe frigate rolled heav
ily to windward. As she swung slowly
back the passing sea bore up the boat,
and the two seamen jumped and landed
on all fours in tbe boat.
A dazzling chain of lightning shot
across the sky, and revealed .the men in
the boat, each with a woman clasped in
his arms. A wild hurrah from the men
on deck, ana lu an instant the seamen
and their precious burdens were swing
ing in the air and hauled safely on
deck.
As soon as the lady on deck found
herself in safety she fainted away, but
she was carried to a stateroom, and the
surgeon administered restoratives and
soon succeeded in bringing her back to
life. Her clothing was drenched with
flying spray, but both the little girl and
her mother were wrapped in warm
blankets until their clothes were dried
The next day the gale moderated, and
and Mrs. Berry and her daughter made
their appearance on deck, aud with tears
filling her eyes she thanked the captain
and blessed him and his noble crew.
The captain was anxious to learn her
story, and when she told him under
what circumstances she was set afloat
in the boat, he immediately made sail in
the direction of the disabled steamer
but the hungry water had closed over
many of her crew and passengers, aud,
a few hours after Mrs. Berry was set
adrift, the noble steamer had gone to the
bottom.
But little more remains to be told.
The next day the man-of-war transferred
her rescued passengers to the Havana
Bteamer going north for New York, and
they arrived there to meet husband and
father whose ship had arrived just be
fore the tempest.
A magnificent sword, with suitable
inscription, was in due time forwarded
to the Admiralty for Captain Seymour
as a token of the gratitude of Captain
Berry and his wife.
SUNDAY READIN3,
What Followed.
Wordsworth says, " The child is the
father of the man;" and more than one
prison scene and prison memory has
illustrated this Inevitable link of char
acter between one's earlier and later
years. A young man - arrested for
swindling his employer out of twenty
thousand dollars sat alone in ft criminal's
cell, out of which daylight had faded.
Cowering on his hard bed he pictured
to himself the world outside, full of
warmth and light and comfort Tbe
question came to him sharply
"How came you here ? Was it really
the stealing of that last great sum V"
Yes and no.
Looking back twenty years, he saw
himself a schoolboy ten years old. He
remembered one lovely June day with
the roses in full bloom over the porch
and the dress his mother wore while at
her work, and the laborers in the wheat
fields.
Freshest of all he remembered his
Uncle John such a queer, kind, forget-
fuloldmanl That very; morning his
uncle had sent him to pay ft bill at tbe
country store, and there were seventy
two cents left, and Uncle John did not
ftsk him for It.
When they met that noon , this boy,
new In prison, stood there under the
beautiful blue sky, and a great tempta
tion came. He said to himself. "Shall
I give it back, or shall I wait until he
asks for it f If be never asks, that is
his lookout. If he does, why, I can get
it again together."
He never gave back the money;
A theft of twenty thousand dollars
brought this young man to the prison
door.but when a boy he turned that way
years before, when he sold his honesty
for seventy-two cents.
That night he sat disgraced, and an
open criminal, In his chilly cell. Uncle
Jobn was long ago dead. The old home
was desolate, his mother broken-hearted.
The prisoner knew that what brought
him there was not the man's deed alone,
but the boy's.
Had the ten-year-old boy been true to
his honor, life now would have been all
different. One littleoheatlng was the
first of many, until his character was
eaten out, could bear no test, and he
wrecked his manliness and his life.
The Gain of Sunday Rest.
Of course I do not mean that ft man
will not produce more in a week by
working seven days than by working
six days, but I very much doubt
whether at the end of the year, he will
generally have produced more by work
ing seven days in ft week than by work
ing six days in a week. The natural
difference between Campania and Spitz
bergen is trifling when compared with
the difference between a country inhab
ited by men full of bodily and mental
vigor, and a country inhabited by men
sunk in bodily decrepitude. Therefore
it is that we are not poorer, but richer,
because we have through many ages
rested from our labor one day in seven.
The day is not lost. While industry is
suspended, while the plough lies in the
furrow, while the exchange is silent,
while no smoke ascends from the fac
tory, a process is going on quite as im
portant to the wealth of the nation as
the work which is performed on more
busy days. Man, the machine of ma
chinesthe machine which compared
with all the contrivances of the Watts
and Arkwrlghts are worthless is repair
ing and winding up, so that he returns
to his labors on the Monday with clear
er intellect, with livelier spirits, with
renewed corporeal vigor.
" Dust on Your Glasses."
I don't often put on my glasses to ex
amine Katy's work, but one morning,
not long since, I did so upon entering a
room she had been sweeping.
" Did you forget to open the windows
when you swept, Katy ?" I inquired ;
"this room is very dusty."
" I think there is dust on your eye
glasses, ma'am," she said modestly.
And sure enough the eye glasses were
at fault, and not Katy. I rubbed them
off, and every thing looked bright and
clean, the carpet like new and Katy's
face said :
" I am glad It was the glasses, and
not me, this time.
This has taught me a good lesson, I
said to myself upon leaving the room,
and one I shall remember through
life.
In the evening Katy came to me with
some kitchen trouble. The cook had
done so and so and she had said so and
so. When her story was finished, I
said, smilingly :
" There is dust on your glasses, Katy ;
rub them off, you will see better."
She understood me and left the' room.
I told the incident to the children, and
it is quite common to hear them say 'to
each other :
" O, there is dust on your glasses."
Sometimes I am referred to :
"Mamma, Harry has dust ou his
glasses j can't he rub It off V
When I hear a person criticising an
other, condemning, perhaps, a course of
action he knows nothing about,drawlng
Inferences prejudicial to the person or
persons, I think right away, " There's
dust on yci'r glasses ; rub it off." The
truth is, everybody wears these very
same glasses, only the dust is a little
thicker on some than on others, and
needs harder rubbing to get it off.
I said this to John one day, some little
matter coming up that called forth the
remark: "There are some people I
wish would begin to rub, then," said he,
" There is Mr. So-and-So, and Mrs. ' So
and So; they are always ready to pick at
some one, to slur, to hint I don't know
I don't like them."
" I think my son John has a wee bit
ou his glasses Just now." '
He laughed and asked r
What is a body to do r" ' -
"Keep your own well rubbed up, and
you will not know whether others need
It or not."
" I will," he replied.
I think as a family, we are all profit
ing by that little incident, and through
life will never forget the meaning of
"There is dust on your glasses."
