He wot to anil from Milt port on one of Mm Cuoardert on Saturday next, for Uverpool, from whence he intended to go to Coriobod, in Germany, where he hoped to derive bonent from Mm waters. Holt only tblrty-Hve yeort of age, and hit wife to a very pretty and nttracMve wotnnn, tome eight years hit Snlor. Wilklne hat overtaxed himself hit profession, that ot civil engineer, and he hat boon warned tovoral timet that he would lose hit miad if he persist, td in working to hard. WIMiln a short time he bad become very much interested in pl ritualism, and during hit stay here bat devoted much ot hit time to seai tees and sittings with the many Spiritualists with whom Boston It blttued. Only Saturday he wot found by a policeman standing on a dry, goods box on the corner of Temple Place and Tremout ttreet about dusk, haranguing a crowd on spiritualism. At that time the ttreett are foil of people on their way home, and the policeman was about to take Mr. Wilklne to the stNtion-honse for blocking the streete, when a man who knew him came along and persuaded the officer to take him home. Dr. Clark was in the room at Mm Parker Houte with Mr. and Mr. Wilklne all yesterday afternoon and evening, but though the pntient wan sleeping quietly for the night when he left him at Quarter before twelve, tea winnten afterward WUklns jumped out of bed with an unearth I j yell, rushed at hie wife and struck her a terrible blow on the side of the hood with hit net, that knocked her down and left an ugly wound on her cheek. Then he ran into the hallway, tearing his night do thee into small pieces and yelling at the top of his voice. In a moment all the hallways ware lied with men and women in saut robot, ruthing wildly down the stairs and anx iously asking each other it voices of tor. ror what toe trouble wat. several oi toe ladies fainted and were carried Into Mm parlors and laid on the sofas. The night clerk and two porters ran up tftg stain and tried to capture the Insane man. He brushed all three ot them to one side, and Sew down Mte hallway, by this time almost nude, and tried to open one of Mm double windows ou School street, crying: "I mutt Sy out; I mutt fy out; don't touch my wings." The stalwart engineer and ire man tried to selxe WUklns by the arms, but he eluded them and ran bock to hit room, pulling Mm door to after aim Parson Downs had been reading testimony for hit coming trial, is company with hit lawyers, in Mm rooms of Mm syndicate for the defense, on the feer be. low. He had just reached Um auettioo: "Whet did you leave Mrs. T&ber?" at he hoard the unearthly jells. He jumped to Mo feet and went up Mm stairs two at a bound nutlets and cootlese and his curly hair flying behind him. He shoved open Mm door to Wllkina' room, around which stood a frightened group of people afraid to enter. He found Wilklne standing on Mm bureau without a stitch of doMtlng on, waring a black bottle around hit head and shouting: "I am God, lam God; beware of me." Downs ran up to the bureau and grabbed Wilklne firmly around the waist. As he did so, Wilklna aimed a blow at his head with the bottle. Downs ducked his head, bat received the blow in full force upon his right shoulder, almost dislocating it. He carried Wilklne to the bed, threw him upon it, and held him down, Judge Norton shouting all the Mum, "Look nut, Faraoa, he will kill you.' After Downs got Wilklne down, font men came in and helped to hold him. Then the police were sent for. It took three M them to carry WUklns to Mm Station-house after tiy had got tome clothes on him. Mrs. Wilklne' wound wan dressed, and she was tenderly cared for, but wat suffering intensely when last heard from, with hysterics. It was more Mum nn hour before Mm hotel wat restored to its normal quiet, and then Mm night clerk heared a deep sigh at lie said : "That wat the worst scene ever known in the Parker House.

The Captain and the crew, which eonsletod of a cook and four stamen, wore rescued by a farmer named Corwln, and landed In safety at Fret roods, a small Moment near Baiting Hollow. The rtocutd men had a thrilling ox Krience and at one time had given up nil pe. The Srnt two days of Mm voyage wore uneventful, the ten being at smooth at giant. On Friday night, when of Gull Inland, a blinding snow storm, aeoom panted by a northwest gale, tot in. The waves swept the decks and made it dangerous for the crew to attend to their du Met. The wind, which had Increased in velocity, whistled through Mm sails ami tumbled the right ened sailors about the decks. Toward morning the men who had been on duty all night went below to t;et some food. To their horror it w ts discovered that the ship 'bad sprung a leak, ami that the wat?r was rushing far? the hold at a frightful rate, Again the men went on deck and the unequal stritacglt between endurance and the angry element was renewed. All set to work bailing out the ship. Forty tons of pig iron were thrown overboard, and an attempt wat made to . anchor the vet. sel. The huge anchors, two in number, were lowered into the tea, and just as the captain was congratulating himself on having accomplished the feat successfully, a terrible gust of wind snnpped the chains. Then a huge wave carried awfcy the yawl and another broke the rudder. The wind, not to be outdone, put out all the lights, so darkness was added to otbet misfortunes of the terror-stricken crew. Still, the men did not give an all hope. They continued to work, although with out food lor twenty-ionr hours. The schooner, without a rudder, with froten sails, her yawl washed overboard, her anchors gone and wanned by a starved aud exhausted crew, drifted about In Mm storm and wind. The outlook wat black, and the Captain, although be tried to look cheerful in the presence of the crew, Inwardly felt that all chance of saving the shin and all the men wat at an end. The baiting out of the water In Mm hold wat kept up all night, so when Mm day dawned the Seabird wat still oat. captain Haskell gave orders to have the signal of distress hoisted on the main-mast. Luckily for him and the crew the signal wat observ ed by a brave Long Island farmer living at Froth Point, who wat on the beach at the time and saw the signal, and, without hesitating a mo ment, set about constructing a raft of fenders. The surf was running high at the time, and it required daunt lees courage to reach Mm wrecked vessel in such weather. Nevertheless, Mm brave man made Mm venture. On board Mm Sea. bird all hand were eagerly watching their rescuer. The raft rode safely over the waves and wat soon alongside the ship. At it wat very small, only one of the crew at a time could be taken on board, and six successive tripe had to be made before all were tended on shore. The crew, who had suffered intensely from hunger, eold and exhaustion, were taken to Mr. Corwln't houte, and given food and shelter. The v steel it a wreck. A SeHtarr Survlver. Nxw York, January IS.

LAftC KMtMOM BOHEMES.

Nearly all Mm old peiwoon proteete of Um Forty-eighth Congrats have already boon introduced into Ma mmeoator, while some now ones teem to outdo in axtrnrMgHMee nnyUtlnf kithrto proposed. Two Senator were to anxteut to lend in this rivalry Mint took brought forward the same menturt. It grant pemdoHN to every soldier and tailor of Mte Mexican war. and every soldier and sailor of the war of Mm rebellion, who served oven fourteen days in the army or navy. It gives Mentions alto to the surviving widow of such soldiers and sailon. provided they have not remarried. Then it raises oertnin pensions to the maximum of twonty-four doll nor month, nrateribee that every eight-dollar penaiou now paid to widows or minor children shall be made twelve dollars ami dates all the eivil war pensiou baok to the death or discharge. During the war there were furnished to the Union armies, under the various calls of President Lincoln, 2.772,-tOS men. Probably 90,000 wen enlisted in the regular army betides those who were credited to the States. The StHtew, too, with a few exceptions, received no credit oh their quotas for men furnished for loo than ninety days' service. Yet there were mnnv sixty day' and thirty days' men. In the summer of 1$63 iiihiiv militia volunteered for thirty daw, the State of T,w York alone furnishing 17,210 of... . ami men. According to tiio careful estimate of Colonel UliMtterer, it i perfectly safu to say that tiie total number of men furnished by the Stnte and Territorian for the armies of the United Statu, after deducting those credited with service in the navy, will exceed 2,860,000. In Prof. Solys "UlooLude and the Cruisers" we rind the nUtetuent that whom the war ended thuro were 51, 500 men in the Naval Sm'ioe. Of course there had been mnnv others who served only a part of the war. and many no doubt were discharged for disability. In round numbers we may say that about three million men responded to the various calls, on land and 041 in the regular and volunteer services. It is clear, therefore, that the bills juat spoken of propose to pension nn enormous number of men. It may be said that those who re-enlisted arc count ed twice in these enumerations. That it true; and it it not possible, without a degree of labor perhaps never likely to be undertaken, to know just how many individual soldier and sailors served. But it it worth while observing that if the aggregate of 2,772,402 men credited to the .states and Territories under the various calls is brought to n three years' standard, it still rep resents 2,320,272, Thus it will be seen Mint the number of short-term troops wan comparatively very small. It is often urged in behalf of those universal pension projects which provide a pension at the rate of a certain Sxod turn per month, according to the amount of service rendered, that the great number of short terms will niuoh reduce the amount to be paid. In re ality there were comparatively few who served lots than a year. In 1861, for example, 91,81$ men weie furnish ad for three months, but 57,849 men for three years. Schciaes for pensioning every noay, rich or poor, who ever bore arras dur ing the Mexican war and the civil war, even for a fortnight, do not take proper account of the expense which would be incurred in carrying the in into effect In fact, they hardly take account of the character of the service perfornied, since it is well known that militia who performed duty in Northern fort for a few weeks, until regular forces could be supplied, were mustered into tne service, under such bills as nav been introduced into Congress, even these soldier would now be entitled to pen sions, though never within hundred of mile ot tne actual scene of war. m. T 3ttH THE WAR IS OVER. A ttrand Betate WMek "Hltj Km Never Mat te Kveeril Hirers". At a rule the Southern people art not admirers of the Puritans, and they may perhaps at first be startled at the Rev. Henry Wrd Beechtr't eutting them to, at he did at the Brooklyn New Bngland dinner. But they are not likely to lay it up against him when they comprehend the splendid compliment he pakl them. He defined the Puritans at those who insisted on waking themselves instruments in Um correction of abuses no matter nt what sncrinoe; who refuted to be led away front these aims and who had Mm will power to carry them out at any cost. "There are," he said, "men in Ireland to-day as good Puritans at the world ertr saw." Every man, no matter where he lives, does the beet he ean without counting the eost every soon man ho reckoned among Mte grant brotherhood of the Pari tent. There art a groat many Puritans in Georgia and South Carolina, be sold, who meant right but who made mistakes.

The thoughtful utterances of rrottdont Cleveland on our agricultural interests show that he fully appreciates the importance of the vast wealth which is annually derived from the rich farm of the West and Northwest. The above statistic must convince every rentier of the great benefit to 1m derived from a wise and careful exeroise of the powers and duties of tho Department of Agriculture, which M charged with acquiring and diffusing among the people useful information on the subjects interesting to farmers. Could efficient precautions be alto taken against grain corners, which would seem, in view of the cereal wealth of the Northwest impossible to brine about, but which are, neverthe less, of no infrequent occurrence, tho country would be always ready to sup ply the needs of other nations without th infliction of burdens on our own people, by v.i undue increase in the price of grain. Should the present troubles in Europe culminate in a general war, a wonderful inipetu would be riven to our rrain interests, as tho supplies from India and other conntries ooum not long ne reitea upon to feed the warring nations.
