LINES ON THE DESTRUCTION OF THE STEAMER ATLANTIC. BY AROELLA PBENTISS. _:' Far out on the mighty water : _ Rode s fair and gallant boat, Filled with precious human beings, - Soon by Death's hand to be smote. All was mirth, and joy, and pleasure, ° ‘Every heart throbbed with the hope - Of a quick and joyous meeting ¢ : With a dear, loved family group. " Baut, alas! for 'ere the morxing t Comes with all ite new born life, ; They will be beneath the water, Dohe with all earth’s toils and strife. When the darkest shades of midnight ! ~ Threw its pall o’er all the earth; . Suddenly a sound came, stopping All their pleasure, joy and mirth. _ "T'is the crashing of the steamer As it strikes the hidden rocks ; : Ab, 'tis vain to hope for rescue, - Death still stares at them, and mocks. All their efforts are but vain; : They must perish, none can save ; . . Doomed to lie beneath the ocean, : Doomed to find a watery grave, Now the mighty waters filling ‘ Up the steamer, and with dread Do they hear the waters rughing, - Knowing soon ’t will be their bed ; . Soon, too soon, came the dread sinking, And their hearts sank with despair, o . For they knew that they must perish— : Meet destruction then and there. Plunged in water, cold and chilling; * Hear their dreadful shrieks and cries—Sounde too sad for us to listen, : Piercing to the very skies. - "Tis i vain, they are doomed to perish; Soon they'll sink beneath the wave— Those we loved, and those we cherished, ' Will lie in a watery grave. When the morning came with sanshine, - Naught was seen save the sad wreck; Gone were all the fated mortals ta - Who s 0 lately walked her decks; Mauy were the homes made lonely; Many hopes were blasted, when Sunk that fated ship, Atlantic, : -Never more to rise again. > Years from this we'll tell the story ; Talk of their sad, bitter fate, .

Beside me, with his elbow on the band rail, and his short pipe between his teeth, lounges the stalwart chief engineer, as thorough an Englishman as if he had not spent two thirds of his life abroad, and delighted to get hold of a listener who (as he phrases it) “has been about a bit.” “No; they ain’t got an Englishman's seasonin’,” he continues, pursuing bis criticism of the Dalmatian seamen, “and what’s more, they ain’t got an English—man’s pluck neither, not when it comes to a real scrape.” - : “Can no one but an Englishman have any pluck, then?’ asked I, with = laugh. 7 C . “Well, I won’t go for to say that; o’ course a man as is & man 'ull have pluack in him all the werld over. I've seen a Frencher tackle a sherk to save his mess mate; I've seen a Rooshan stand to his gun arter every man -in the battery, barrin’ himself, had been blowed all to smash. But, if yer come to.that, the pluckiest fello,w that ever I seed warn't a man at all! e *What was he, then? a woman " I in quired. : “No, nor that neither; though, mark ye, I don’t go for to say as how ' women ain't got pluck enough, tuo—some on ’em at least. My old ’oeman, now, saved me once from a lubber of 8 Portugee as was just agoin’ to stick a knife into me,when she cracked his nut * with a handspike. You can hear her spin the yarn; herself if yeu like to pay us a visit when® you get to Constantinople. But this'n asl'm a ‘talkin’ on- was a little lad ‘not much big ‘ger'n Tom Thumb, only with a spernt of bie own as 'ud ha’ blowed up & man o'war a'most. Would ye like to hear about ity Lol

I eagerly assent; and the narrator, knocking the ashes from out of his pipe, folds his brawny arms upon the top of the rail, and commences-the following: 'Bout three years ago, afore I got this berth as I'm in now, I was second engineer on board of a Liverpool steamer bound for New York. 'There had been a lot of extra caigo sent down just at the last minute, and we bad no end of & jobstowin’ it away, and that run us late o’ startin’; so that, altogether, as you may think, the cap's warp't in the aweetest temper in the world, nor the mate nei: ther; as for the chief engineer, he was an easy going sort of chap, s nothin’ on earth could put out. But'on the mornin’ of the third day out from Liverpool he cam down to me in a precious .hurry, lookin’ as if something had put him out pretty considerably. ; ‘“Tom,” says he, “what d’ye think? Blest if we ain’t got a stowaway.” (That’s, the name, you know, sir;'as we gives to chaps as hides theirselves aboard outward bound vessels, and gets carried out unbe - known to every body.) : - “‘The dickens you have!” says I. “Who is be and where did you find him ?* “Well, we tound him stowed away among the casks for'ard; and . ten fo one we'd pever ha’ twigged him at all if the skipper’s dog hadn’t sniffed him out and begun barkin. Such a mite as he-is, too! Icould e'most put him in my backy pouch, poor little beggar! but he looks to be a good plucked un for all that.” - I dido’t walt to hear no more, but put on deck like a Bky rocket; and there I did see s sight, and no mistske. Every mas-jock of the crew, and wbat few passengers we had aboard, was all 1 a g:g on the fo'c'tsle, and in the middle s the fust mate, lookin® as bisck as thuns der. Riglit in fton:l of him, lookin’ s regular mite among all them hig fellows, was s little bit of o lad not teng‘yx‘iiold’ —mg%edu 8 scarecrow, but with bright, curly bair, and s bonnie little face of his own, if be hadn’t been so woful thin and pale. But, blees your soul! to see the way that little chap had his head up and looked about him, you'd hs' thought the whole ship belonged to him.. The mate was a great hulkin’ black bearded feller, with & look that’'ud ha' frightened » horse,jand a voice fit to make one jump through a key hole; but the young we - warn’t & bit afeard—he stood straight up and looked him full in the face with them bright, clear eyes o hir'n, for all the ’ world like he was Prince Halfred hims self. Folks did say arterward (lo_wemq his voice to & wh‘i:rr) 88 how he came o better blood nor what he onght; and, for my part, I'm rather o' that way o’ thinkin’ moself; for 1 wm‘{:: seed & common street Harab (as ther calls 'em now) carry it off like him. You might he’ heard pin drop, as the mate spoke. :

“Well, you young whelp,” says he, in his grimmest voice, “what’s brought you here ?” - - _ “It was my step-father as done it,” says the boy, in a weak little voice, but as steady as could be. “Father’s dead, and mcther married sgain, and my new father suys as how he won’t have no brats about, eatin’ up his wages; and he stowed | me away when no one warn’t lookin’,and guv me some grub to keep me a goin’ for 8 day or two till I got to sea. He says I'm to goto Aunt Jane at Halifax, and here’s hier address.” ; Wae all believed every word on't, even without the paper, for his look and his voice, and the way he spoke, was enough to show that there warn’t a ha'pworth o' lyin’ in his whole skin. 0 ' But the mate didn’ seem to swaller the yarn at all; be only shrugged his shoulders with a kind o' grin, as much as to say, “I'mitoo old a bird to be caught with that kind o’ chaff;” and then he says to him:;f : s : Lo : “Look ‘here, my lad, that’s all very fine, but it ‘won’t do here—some of these men o’ mine are 1n the secret, and I mean to bave it out o’ '’em. Now, you just point out the man that stowed you.away and fed you, this very minute; if you don’t it will be the worse for youn.” = ' The boy looked up 1o his bright, fearless way (it did wmy heart good to look st him, the brave little chap!), and said, quite quietly: - | L “I've told the truth; I ain’t got no more t 6 say.” o - : The mate says nothin’, but looks at him for a minute as sf bhe'd see clean through bim; and then he turned round to the aoen, lookin’ blacker than ever. . “Reéve a rope o the yard,” he sings out, loud enougl to raise the dead, “‘smart now.” " The men all looked at each ' other, as much 88 to say, “What on earth’s coming pow?” But aboard ship, o’ course, when your told to do a thing you've got to do it ; so the rop® was reve ia ajiffy. | - “Now, my lad,” says tbe mate, in a hard* kind o' voice, that made every word seem like fitting a stone into & wall, “you see that ‘ere rope? Well, I'll give you ten minutes to confess” (he took out his watch and heid it in his band); and . if you don’t tell the truth afore the time's | up I'll haftg you liikea dog!” { The crew all stared at one another as if they couldn’t belicwe tlieir ears (I didn’t believe mine, I can tell you) and theo a low growl went among ‘em like a :wild beast awakin’ out of a nap. , : “Silence there!” shoute the mate, iu a voie2 like the roar of a not'easter. “Stand by to run the for'ard 11” and with bis own bamnds he put the noose around the boy’s neck. ‘The little feller never flinched a bit, bat tiiere were some among the sailors (big #rong fellers as could ha' felled a ox) as @hock like leaves in the wind. As for me, I bethought myself o’ my little curly haired Jad at home, ard how it.'ud be if any one was;to go for 40 hang him; and at the very thought on’t I tingled all over, and my fingers clinched themselves as if they was a grippin’ somebody’s throat. I clencied hold o' & handspike, ‘and held it behind my back all ready. “Tom,” whispered the chief engineer to me, “do you think he geslly means to do it o” : ;

“«I 'don’t 'know,” says [, through imy teeth; but if be does he shall go first if I swings for 1t 1’ L I've been in many 88 ugly &erépe in my time; but I never felt ’arf as bad as [ did then. Every minute seemed as long as & dozen; and the tick of the mate’s wateh reg’lar pricked my ears like a pin. The men were very quiet, but there was a precious ugly look on some o'.tbeir faces; and I noticed that three or four on'em kept edgin’ for'ard t¢ where the mate was stendin’, in a way that meant mischief. As for me, 'd made up my mind that if he did go for to hang the poor lit tle chap, I'd kill him on the spot, and take my chavuce. “Bight minutes!” says the mate, his great deep voice breakin’ in upon the silence, like the toll of & funeral bell. “It you’ve angthing t» coofess, my lad, you bad better out witlr it, for: yer time's nearly up” i , “I've told you the truth,” answers the boy, very pale, but as firm as ever. “May I say my prayers, pleasc*?” . The mate nodded, and dows goes the poor little child cn his k ees (with that infernal rope ahout his nec.t ail the time) and puts up-bis poor little b ssds to pray. I couldn’t make out what he ®eid (fact, my head wasin such a whirlthat I'd hardly ha’ knowed my own na we), but I'll be bound God heard it, eve."y %ord. “Then ups on his feet sgain, and p'vts bis bands behind him, and says to the wedte, quite quietly, “I'm ready!” And then, sir, the mate’s bard, yrim face breke'up all at once; like I'd teen the ice in the Baltic. Hesnatched uptbe boy in his arms and kissed him, aud burst .outa cryin’ like a child, and 1 think theré warn’ one of us as didn’t do the same.

: The Piague in Pounsylvania: [From the Pittsburg Dispateh.] - Reports from all parts of the State’ wention the prevalence of cerebro spina! meningitie as approaching almostto an epidemic. A great number of fatal cases bave occurred within the ‘pnst'montb or two. The people are at a loss to account for it, but many attribute it to malaria arising from the wasting of the unusually heavy amounts of snow which fell during the past winter. The dicease attacks people of all ages, but seems to be, so faf,’ especially fatal to young people. The mortality from this disease seems to have been as great as that from the small pox epidemic in the thickly scttled communi. ties of Pennsylvania during the years 1871 and 1872, : 6 ;

SALMON P, CHASE. Summoned before a Higher Tribunal. Siidden Death from Paralysis - : NEw Yorg, May 7.—Chief Justice Chase was yesterday attacked by apoplexy in this city, and died this morning, at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. William Hnyt, No. 4 West Thirty third street. His two danghters and Senator Sprague were present. The death of Chief Justice Chase has caused general grief throughout the city. The flags on the City Hall and the principal newspaper offices and many private buildings are displayed at half mast. The Chief Justice came on here on Saturday evening to visit Mrs. W. S. Hoyt, bis haughter. He was in unusually good kealth and spirits, This state ‘of things continued; but yesterday mdrning, at ten o'clock, a servant sgert to call him to breakfast, on entering his room, tound Mr. Chase lying in a state ofunconscis ous stupor. His daughter was immediately summoned, and servants were dis. patehed for medical aid. = - When the physicians arrived his unconscic usness was tound to have resulted from the recurrence of the paralysis of which he has ad several strokes. All efforts to relieve him proved unavailing, and it was evident that his vitality was ebbing away. : : ' He remained tofally unconscious from the time his condition was discovered un til the end.

: Chief Justice Chase. . The death of Chief Justice Chuse is re. ceiyed everywhere with profound regret He was a great man and his life an eventful one. He was ang eminent American statesman snia jurist who commanded the respect of the nation. From bis life we glean the following : Salmon Portland Chase was born at Corpish, N. H,, on the 13th of Junuary, 1808 He graduated at Dartmouth College in 1826, taught a classical school at ‘ Wasbington, D C, from 1826 to 1829, studied law under Willism Wirt, and set. tled at Cincionati about 1830. He attained eminence as 2 lawyer, supported Gen. Harrison in the Presidential campaign of 1840, and took a prominent part in the formation ot the Liberal party in 1841.. He was one of the chief promoters of the Convention of Free Soilers, which met at Buffalo in 1848 and wnominated ‘Martin Van Buren for the Presidency. He acted as counsgel for -the defense of several fugitive slaves,and obtained there by a wide spread notoriety- ; ~ln 1849, he was-¢lected Senator of the United States by the Ohio Lggislature, and bis first great speech as Senator was made against the compromise bill of 1850. ‘On tbe nomination of Mr. Pierce in 1852, he separated from the Democratic party, which be believed was committed to the support and extension of slavery. He opposed the Kansas Nebraska bill, by which the Missouri compromise was repealéd in 1854, and offered several amendments to the same. He proposed to add a clause that “the people of the territory, through their appropriate representatives, may, if they see fit, prohibit the existence of slavery therein.” Thisiamendment was defeated by a vote of ten yeas and thirtysix nays. He advocated the Homestead Bill, and maintained that the Federal government should "aid in the coustruction of a railroad to the Pacific. , He was elected Governar of Ohio by the Republicans ir 1855, and supported Fremont for President in 1856. In 1857 he was re elected Governor. - . : , At the National Republican Conven tion which met- at Chicago 1860, Governor Chase received forty-nine votes for the office of President on the first ballot. Having been appointed & member of the Peace Conference which met at Washingtua in February, 1861, he there made & speech oo the subject of fugifive slaves, - and proposed.that the Northern States ' should compensate their masters for them He was appoiuted Becretary of the Trea. sury 1n the Cabinet of Mr Lineoln. In 1862 he recommended that the wnotes of the United States should be a legal ten der. When he accepted the' office of - Secretary, the public credit was low, and the public revenue scarcely sufficient to support the government. He raised money by the issue of Treusury notes, called “greenbacks,” which bore no interest, and by loans which were taken at moderate rates, mostly by tbe. people of the United States His services as a financier were enlogized by Mr. Greeley, another great statesman who has also passed away. o o : " Mr. Chase resigned the Secretaryship jam 864, about the time his friends made 8 spo7e po neminate him for the Preridency. e supported the re-election of Mr. Linealp, wso appoioted bim Chief Justice of the Supeme Court of the United States, which resgonsible trust he preserved with honar.gsd distinction until the day of bis death. e presided over the Court of Tmpesshment for the trial of Johnson, and favqred .the gcquittal of the then President. - . : "Of late years Mr.« Chase had ne.confidence in the Republican party northe policy purssed by its representatiye men, and to some extent his mflueqce,w‘asigw\‘ en to the opposition.c In 1868" he was urged by many prominent leaders of the Democrat ie party as eandidate for Presi« dent, and this feeling existed to some .ex tent ic 1872. . . e

A Word on the Liguer @uecstion. Our liquor dealers are pulling at the wrong string when they makea cbmbination in which they pledge themselves to bay nothing whatever of merchauts or .others who bave signed the remonstrance against . granting liceose, or have other-. wise opposed the traffic. Wholesale proscription of men because of matters of opinion, it long indulged ia, would seen reduce society to numberless eliques, each | of which would be doing ite best to de. stroy another. Should a temperasce man's conscience prevent him from drisking at the bar of a saloon, or not allow him to _epcourage others to so drink, it is sll right. He may remonstrate against the l sale of liquors at the bar and none ¢an reasonably dispute his right to dosn. But shonld he become so rabid on the subject | of temperance that he would refusé to bay hoge,grain or other merchandise of & man who aney happen to be a saloon keeper, he would then become positively engaged in prowr,irion. Just 80 when it is'reversed. If Liquor sellers .do not choose to uaite themselves with a temperance organ : ization, or refuse {0 support a newspaper published in the interest of the Vemperance cause, nobody would blame them.— Bat when they pulilicly determine not to patronize a temperance an in any way whatever, übe¥ are not aply engaged in proseription of as bad a chagacter as that ‘of the monomaniac on temparasce, but are slso werking serious injugy to.both them relves and the best.interest of sogiety.— I'he wiole ynatter may be summed .up in a nutebell.

ONE. 0F THE BEST qualities of %he late Chief Justice wns his respect for law, and his dislike of violent and bleody means to obtain anend. He was a revolutionist, but a legal revolutionist. No one had more jealous fears of -the mischievous inflaence of the military, or strove more to confine it within the narrow limits prescribed by the Constitution. He was one of the first, after .the war was over, to counsel a mild and coneiliatory policy to= ward the South, | He wanted no scaffolds erected, He avoided the trial of Jeil. Davis, which was within his Circuit. He -counseled universal amnesty to go band in hand with universal emancipation. To ‘him more than to anybody else do we owe the fact that President Andrew Johnson ~was not impeached and deposedsfrom office.

THERE are unmistakable signs of a wide-spreading popular discontent with the prevailing order of things. Notwithstanding the towering majority by which General Grant was re elected President, public scntiment has nowhere settled down in a quiescent state, and ‘accepted the situation as the fittest and best for thie country. The corruptions of the govern-. ment are as glaring as ever, its usurpations are as offen.ive, and of late bave become more offensive than ever. - The overwhelming Republican; msjority in Congress, which went in with the pew Presidential term, fails to give to public feeling any assurance of safety;of stability, and reform.

PayMENT of a policy of life insurance was some time ago refused by a promipent New York company, on the grourd that death had resulted from! suicide, whichy by the terms of the policy, freed the company from liability. The case has Deen carried through the courts, and the Supreme Court deeides that the company, notwithstanding its stipulatior, must pay, as the suicide was committed duripg insanity, and was not, therefore, a volubtary, iotelligent act. : o e ———— . .
