A Steamboat Race.
A GRAPHIC SKETCH BY MARK TWAIN.
At night the boat forged on through the deep solitudes of the river, hardly ever discovering a light to" testify to a human prfeaemce—mile after mile and league after league the vast bends were guarded by unferoken walls of forest that had never been disturbed by the yoico or the footfall of a man, or felt tho edge of his sacrilegious ax.
An hoar after supper the moon came up, and Clay and Washington (two boys) ascended to the hurricane deck to revel again in their new realm of enchantment. They ran races up and down the deck climbed about the bell made friends with the passengerdogs chained under the life-boat tried to make friends with a passenger bear fastened
to
the verge staft, but were not
oncouraged
'skinned the cat' on the
hog-chains in a word exhausted the amusement possibilities of the deek. Then they
losked
wistfully up at the
pilot house, and finally, little by little, Clay ventured up there, followed diffidently by Washington. The pilot turned presently to 'get bis stern marks,' saw the lads, and invited them in. This cosy little house, built entirely of glass, and commanding a marvelous prospect in every direction, was a magician's throne to them, and their enjoyment of tho place was simply boundless.
They sat them down on a high bench and looked miles ahead, ana saw the wooded capes fold back and reveal the bends beyond and they looked miles to the rear and saw the silvery highway diminish its breadth by degrees and close itself together in the distance. Presently the pilot said
By George, yonder comes the Amaranth I' A spark appeared, close to the water, neveral miles down the river. The pilot took his glass and looked at it steadily for a moment, and said, chiefly to himself:
It om't be the Blue Win*. She couldn't pick us up this day. It's the Amaranth, sure.'
He bint over speaking tube, and said: Who's on the watch down there
A hollow, unbuman voice rumbled np through the tube in answer: am. Second engineer.'
4
Good I Yoa want to stir your stumps now, Harry—the Amaranth's Just turned the point—and she's just a humplug borself, too!'
The pilot took hold of a rope that stretebfd out forward, jerked it twice, and two mellow strokes of the bell responded. A voice out on the deck shouted:
Stand by. down there, with that larboard lead I No, I don't want the lead,' said the pilot, 'I want you. Iloust out the old man—tell him the Amaranth's coming, And go and call Jim—tell him.'
Aye, ayo,sir!' The 'old nan' was the Captain—he is always oalled so on steamboats and ships 'Jim' was the other pilot. Within iwo minutes both of these men were flying up tfco pilot housestalrway, three steps at a jump. Jim was 1h his shirt sleeves, with his coat and vest on his arm. lie said: was Just turning in. Where's the glass?'
He took It and looked Don't appear to beany night hawk on the jrtckstaff—it's th® Amaranth, dead sure I'
The Captain took a long look, and onlv said 'Damnation!'
George Davis, the pilot on watch, shouted to the night watchman on deck
How's she loaded Two Inches by the head, sir.' Taint enough!' The Captain scouted now:
Call the mate. Tell him to call all hands acid got a lot of that sugar forrmrd«lut her ten inches by the head. Lively now 1'
Aye-aye, sir!' A riot of shouting and trampling floated np from below, presently, and tho Uneasy steering of tho boat soon showed that she was getting 'down by the hoad.'
The three men in the pilot house bo* an to talk in short, sharp sentences, ow and earnestly. As their excite meat rose, their voioee went down. As test aa one of thein put down the spyglass another took it up bnt always with a studied air of calmness. Each Unas the verdict was. 'She's a gaining l*
The Captain spoke through the tube: What steam are von carrying A hundred and forty-two, air I Bat aha's getting better and better all the time,*
The boat was groaning, and straining and quivoring like a monster in pain. Both pilots were at work now, one on oaob aide ol the wheel, with their coats and vests ofl, their bosoms and oollars wide open, and the perspiration flowing dowu their faces. They wereholdIng the boat so eloee to the short that the willows swept the guards almost from stem to stern.

ed into what seemed a crooked creek, and the Amaranth's approaching lights were shot oat in a moment. Not a whimper was tittered now but the three men stared ahead into the shadows, and two of them spun the wheel back and forth with anxious watchfulness while the steamer tore along. The chute seemed to come to an end every fifty yards, but always opened out in time. Now the hesti uf it waa at hand. George tapped the big bell three times, two leadsmen sprang to their posts, and In a moment their wlerd cries rose on the night air, and were caught np and repeated by two men on the upper deck:
No-o bottom De-e-p four!' Half three!' Quarter three!' Mark under wa-a-ter three 'Half twain!'
Quarter twain! Davis pulled a couple of ropes—there
was a
jingling of small bells far below, the boat's speed slackened, and the pent steam began to whistle and the gange cocks scream:
By the mark twain Quar-ter-her-er-less twain!' Kight and a half!' •'Eight feet •Seven-ana-half!' Another jingling of little bells and ceased the wheels turning altogether.
Tbe whistling of the steam was sorneig ed all other noises.
thing frightful, now—it almost drown-
Stand by to meet her!' George beM the wheel hard down and was standing on a spoke.
All ready!' The boat hesitated—seemed to hold her breath, as did the captain and pilots—and then she began to fall away to starboard, and every eye lighted. •Now then!—meet her! meet her! Snatch her!
The wheel flew to port so fast that the spokes blended into a spider web— the swing of the boas subsided—she steadied herself—
Seven feet!' Sev—six and a half?' Six feet! Six Bang! She hit the bottom! George shouted through the tube
Spread her wide open Whale it on her!' Pew—wow—chow The escape pipes belched snowy pillars of steam aloft, the boat ground, and surged, and trembled—and slid over into—
M-a-r-k twain!' Quarter her •Tap! tap! tap!' (to signify 'Lay in tlio loftds.')
And away she went, flying up the willow shore, with the whole silver sea of the Mississippi stretching abroad on every band.
No Amaranth in sight! Ha-ha, boys, we took a couple of tricks that time!' said the captain.
And just at that momenta red glare appeared in the h?ad of the chute and the Amaranth came springing after them!
Well, I swear 'Jim, what is the meaning of that?' I'll tell you what's the meaning of it. That hail we had at Napoleon was Wash Hastings, wanting to come to Cairo—and we didn't stop. He's in that pilot bouse now, showing those mud turtles bow to hunt for easy water.'
That's it! I thought it wasn't any slough that was running that middle bar in Hogeye Bend. If it's Wash. Hastings—well, wbat he don't know about the river ain't worth knowing— a regular gold leaf, kid glove, diamond breast-pin pilot, Wash Hastings is. We won't take any tricks off or him, old man
I wish I'd a stopped for him, that's all.' Tho Amaranth was within three hundred yards of the Boreas and still gaining. The 'old man' spoke through the tube.
What is she carrying now A hundred and sixty-five, sir!' How'syeur wood?'
1
Pineallout—cypress half gone—eating up cotton wood like pie! Break into that rosin on the main deck—pile It in, the boat oan pay for it 1'
Soon the boat was quivering, and plunging, and screaming, more madly than ever. But the Amaranth's head was almost abreast the Boreas's stern.
How's your steam now, Harry?' Hundred and eighty-two, sir Break up the casks of bacon in the forrard hold Pile it in Levy on tbat turpentine in the fantall—drench every stick of wood with i'
The boat was a moving earthquake by this tlin How is she now!
A hundred and ninety-six and still a swelling—water below the middle gauge cooka—carrying every pound she can stand—nigger roosting on the safety valve!'
Good! How's your draft Bully! Every time a nigger heaves a stick of wood into the furnace he goes out the chimney with It!'
The Amaranth drew steadily up until her jack -stall breasted the Boreas's wheel house—climbed along inch by Inch till her chimneys breasted it— crt»pt along, further and further, till the boats were wheel to wheel—and then they closed np with a heavy jolt and locked together tight and fast In the, middle of the big river under the flooding moonlight! A roat and a hurrah went up from the crowded decks of both steamers—all hands rushed to the
Iate—the
tnards to look, and shout, and gesticuweight careened the vessels over toward each other—officers flew hither and thither cursing and storming, trying to drive the people amidships—both captains were leaning over their railings shaking their fists, swearing and threatening—black volumes of amoke rolled up and canopied the scene delivering a rain of sparks upon the and the packed masses or passengers surged back and fell apart, while the shrieks of women and children soared above the intolerable din
And then there was a booming roar, a thundering crash, and the riddled Amaranth dropped loose from their, hold, and drifted helplessly away!
Instantly the fire doors of the Boreas were thrown open, and the men began dashing buckets of water in the furnafor it would have been death and destruction to atop the engines with such ahead of steam on.
As soon aa poaaihle tho Boreas dropped down to the floating wreck, and took off the dead, the wounded, and the unhurt—at least all that could be got at, for the whole fbrward half of tho boat waa a shapeless ruin, with the great chimneys lying crossed on the top of It, and underneath were a dosen vietime imprisoned alive and walling for help. While men with axes worked with might and main to free these poor fellows, ihe Boreas's boats went about picking up stragglers from the river.
And now a new horror presented itself. The wreck took fire from the dismantled naces! Never did men work with itearUer will than did

fought it. It scorched the clothes, it singed the hair of the axemen—it drove them back foot by foot—inch by inch—they wavered, struck a final blow In the teeth of the enemy, and surrendered. And as tbey fell bide they heard prisoned voices saying:
Don't leave us! Don't desert us! Don't, don't do it!' And one poor fellow said •I am Henry Worley, sinker of ihe Amaranth! My mother lives in St. Louis. Tell her a He for a poor devil's sake, please. Say I was killed in an instant and never knew what hurt me— though God knows I've neither scratch nor bruise this moment! It's hard to burn up in a coop like this with the whole wide world so near. Good by, boys—we've all got to come to it at last anyway!'
The Boreas stood away out of danger, and the ruined steamer went drifting down tbe stream an island of wreathing and climbing flame that vomited clouds of smoke from time to time, and glared more fiercely and sent its luminous tongues higher and higher after each emission. A shriek at intervals told of a captive that had met his doom The wreck lodged upon a sandbar, and when the Boreas turned the next point on her upward journey, it was still burning witb scarcely abated fury.
When the boys came down into the main saloon of the Boreas, they saw a pitiful sight and beard a world of pitiful sonnds. Eleven poor creatures lay dead and forty more lay moaning, or pleading, or screaming, while a score of Good Samaritans moved among them doing what they could to relieve their sufferings bathing their skinless faces and bodies with linseed oil and lime water, and covering the places with bulging masses of raw cotton that gave to every face and form a dreadful and unhuman aspect.
A little wee French midshipman of fourteen lay fearluliy injured, but never uttered a sound till a physician of Memphis was about to dress bis hurts. 'Can I get well! 'You need not be afraid to tell me.'
No—I—I am afraid you can not 'Then do not waste your time with me—belp those that cau get well.'
But Help those that oan get well! It is not for uie to be a girl. I carry the blood of eleven generations of soldiers in my veins!'
Tbe physician—himself a man who had seen service in tbe navy in his time —touched his hat to this little hero, and passed on.
Tbe bead engineer of the Amaranth, a grand specimen of physical manhood struggled to his feet, a ghastly spectacle, and strode toward his brother, the second engineer, who was unhurt. He said:
You were on watch. You were boss You would not listen to me when I begged you to reduce your steam. Take that! take it to my wife and tell her It comes from me by tbe hand of my murderer! Take it! and take my curse with it to blister your heart a hundred years, and may you live so long!'
And he tore a ring from his finger, stripping flesh and skin with it, tbrew it down and fell dead
But these things must not be dwelt upon. Tbe Boreas landed ber dreadful cargo at the next large town and delivered it over to a multitude of eager hands and warm Southern hearts—a cargo amounting by tbis time to 89 wounded persons and 22 dead bodies. And with tbese she delivered a list of 39 missing persons that bad drowned or otherwise perished at the scene of the disaster.
A jury of inquest was impaneled, and after due deliberation and injury, tbey returned the inevitable American verdict, which has been so familiar to our ears all tbe days of our lives—'Nobody to blame.'
WASHINGTON ETIQUETTE. Gatb. writing to tbe Chicago Tribune of Mrs. Dablgren's pamphlet on Washington etiquette, thus details the statement of the proprietors of a state dinner. Tbe length of time preceding tbe dinner invitation marks the degree of formality. EUht or ten days commonly precede a stale dinner. Yoa may wait for tbe President, if be is late fifteen or twenty minutes. To great dinners men wear delicately tinted gloves, and remove them at tbe table, and white chokers. Ladies wear ffrande toilette. After dinner gentlemen do not replace their gloves, but the waiters must not take theirs off. A very elegant waiter "ought to have his thumb wrapped in adamask napkin"—somewhat, we presume, like the steward in the parable who wrapped bis one talent In a napkin and hid it away. The scriptoral waiter, however, was not understood by his uncultured master, and was kioked ither into the coal bole or into the back-yard for the account says "outer darkness." It must have been in the back-yard. The host and hostess take tbe central seats, opposite each other the onds of tbe table should be left open folks opposite ought to be previously introduced. One wine at a time, ana delicate wines at that— Rheinlsb, claret, or even the light American The caterer, or chief steward, should serve the courses, and the host and hostess forget that it is being served. Dress your own table, and hire no finery to set it off. Rising from the table, the hostess leads the way to the drawingroom, where small caps of coffee are served, and one hour later tbe hostess herself serves tea. Tbe men stay at the table and smoke as tbey like."

It will be remembered by our readers that early last fall a protracted meeting w»s held at Northville by tho Revs. Mr. Cbapin, of Riley, and Mrs. Dawson of the former plaee. During this meeting Mrs. D. related a story of a certain family composed of father, mother and an only child She stated that they attended a protracted mooting and resisted all appeals to reverse their conduct in life, and become followers of the precepts of Holy Writ. Tbe mother soon after became a raving maniac and died in that condition. Mrs. D. said that there might and probably would be a similar ease at that place, bnt mentioned no names. A Mrs. George Taylor, of Northville, took tbese words as direct application to herself and family, there being only three in the fkmily. Tbe
